While the soccer season is over and the thought of training for the 2004-05 season is months away, two players from the UB women's soccer team have already started.Juniors Arielle Korczykowski and Erin Tambs are taking the off-season to a new level as they begin their training for the American Stroke Association's Marathon to be held in Hawaii on June 20.That's right, Hawaii, home of the NFL's Pro Bowl, the University of Hawaii's Rainbow Warriors and in the upcoming months the residence of Korczykowski and Tambs for five days.While the trip itself seems more than enough reason to do the marathon, the marathon and its cause hits closer to home for both Tambs and Korczykowski.
B.B. King is universally regarded as one of the most influential and talented blues guitarists of all time.
In basketball, as in most sports, there are stats for almost everything that happens in the course of a game.But in the end, the only thing that really matters at the conclusion of the game is the final score.That's why, despite winning the majority of the major statistical battles in Saturday's game at Marshall (6-7, 3-3 Mid-American Conference), the Bulls returned to Buffalo disappointed after a 86-74 loss in Huntington, WV.The Bulls (5-9, 1-5 MAC) pulled down 17 offensive rebounds, had 14 steals, turned the ball over six less times and took 23 more shots than the Herd, but their winless streak stretched to six consecutive games.The Herd's 24-3 first half run gave them a lead that, despite UB's greatest efforts, put the game out of reach for good.
When I moved back to my dorm this semester, I brought with me a machine that triggers such nostalgic memories of my youth that it nearly moves me to tears.
Three years ago, the soundtrack to "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" tapped into the American roots music psyche, igniting a phenomenon that included two Grammy Awards (Best Soundtrack and Best Album), a stay atop the Billboard 200 chart, more than four million copies sold and a tour in support of the album that featured the album's contributors.Though the plot of "Cold Mountain" is far removed from that of "O Brother," the soundtrack to "Cold Mountain" uses the same traditional/bluegrass theme as well as mentions the same producer as "O Brother" (T Bone Burnett) to successfully match the movie's time period.Garage rocker Jack White of the White Stripes contributes vocals and guitar to four traditional songs and one original ("Never Far Away") that he wrote exclusively for the movie.
Just when the Buffalo Bulls thought they had all the answers, the Holy Cross Crusaders came to Alumni Arena and brought them back down to earth.Buffalo (3-10, 1-2 Mid-American Conference) hoped a zone defense would be able to confuse the Crusaders, but Holy Cross (7-9) quickly cracked UB's defense and nailed seven 3-pointers in the first half.

The tall white walls and paint-splattered cement floors of the Hallwalls Contemporary Arts Center are festooned with interpretations and glimpses of the future for its 2004 Members Exhibition, entitled "The World of Tomorrow...Today!"While the future of mankind may be difficult to foresee, the fate of Hallwalls has already been decided.
When it comes to live albums, spending $20 to hear the same songs that appear on a original studio recording can be a gamble.
Gone are the days of patrons who glanced nervously over their shoulders to make sure no one was watching as they entered that restroom labeled "The Weaker Sex." No more Monday open-mic nights.
I used to have a schoolgirl crush on a man who later allegedly murdered his sister and ex-girlfriend.
While the East Division Mid-American Conference standings look almost identical to last year's final standings, the West Division seems to have been flipped completely upside down.The usual suspects are once again atop the East standings with Kent State and Miami trouncing opponents, and, of course, the cellar dwelling regulars like Ohio and UB are reprising their roles at the bottom while providing little to no excitement for their fans.But it's a whole different story in the West.
Years ago, the conservative platform in American politics was fiscal responsibility and smaller government.
Those who visited Montana last week with Jennifer Pugh and the rest of the Schussmeisters Ski Club are nonchalant about the weather in Buffalo."It was 32 degrees below zero there, so coming back to Buffalo was easy," said the senior chemistry and biomedical pharmacology major.For most who stayed in Buffalo, the recent weather conditions might evoke entirely different sentiments.With old man winter blowing full force into Western New York this week, many students have been caught off guard by the sudden shift in climate and are consequently ill prepared to cope with its impact.Dr. Frank Carnevale, director of Student Health Services at UB, said students must take precautions when confronting Mother Nature.
This semester, UB is making history, and it isn't here on campus. In fact, it isn't even on this continent.
