Michigan ties don't exactly run
deep into Spartanburg, S.C., but
Wofford assistant coach Darris
Nichols happens to be a former
player under Beilein at West Vir-
ginia.
"(He) is one of the smartest,
brightest point guards I have ever
had," Beilein said. "I wish he real-
ly didn't understand our offense
at all. But he knows everything
about it, so we have a challenge
with a guy on the other bench
knowing everything we are going
to do."
To hear Michigan talk about
it, the team could hardly be both-
ered by its NCAA Tournament
seed.
"People talk about one, two,
three, four seed," Beilein said.
"None of us coaches really care
about that. Or at least this coach
doesn't."
Added Stauskas: "That wasn't
really mentioned at all. We want-
ed to win this tournament. We
understood if we won, we could

presented their ideas to the pub-
lit at Friday's event..
Out of the five finalist teams,
three winning teams were cho-
sen as the standouts, with one
winning team from each of the
three competition categories.
Each winning team received a
$2500 prize, and the grand prize
winner had the opportunity to
pitch their idea at the TEDx-
UofM conference Saturday.
Enliven, winner of b6th the
grand prize and the Detecting
Disease and Risk Control cat-
egory, is a cell phone applica-
tion aimed to decrease anxiety
and depression in young adult
women by promoting self-
wvorth.
"The point of the app is to
work on individual character
strengths-kindness, selfless-
ness, vulnerability, self-accep-
tance," said Nursing graduate
student Meaghan Cotter, a proj-
ect member. "You work on them
by doing what we call 'Daily-
Do's,' which can be anything
from a self-reflection to a pay it
forward in the community."
possibly get a one seed. But we
weren't too concerned about that.
We're happy with a two seed."
The only other time the Wol-
verines were tabbed as a two-
seed, they were upset in the
second round by No. 7-seed towa
State in 1986. That game was also
played in the middle of Big Ten
country, in Minneapolis.
"The NCAA has been so good
this past couple years of finding
teams and getting them close to
home without putting them in
their home arena," Beilein said.
"So it's really good. We have great
fans all through the footprint of
the Big Ten. Particularly in that
area, the Chicago area, we will
really draw well."
It'sthe25thtournamentappear-
ance in school history, and it's the
fourth time the school has been a
two-seed or better. The Wolver-
ines are 7-4 overall in the Midwest
region and 15-3 overall in their
opening March Madness matchup.
The top seed in the region is Wich-
ita State, the only undefeated team
in college basketball.
Maybe it was that Michigan
had just lost to its rival Michi-
gan State, or maybe the team has
recalibrated to a new normal, but
LiquidGoldConcept, a more
efficient breast pump to serve
working mothers, won the
Empowering the Underserved
category. Public Health student
Ileisha Sanders said her expe-
rience working on the project
taught her important lessons in
entrepreneurship.
"It really makes you think
about sustainability, and you
can use entrepreneurship to do
that," Sanders said. "That's not,
so typical of what public health
does."
The winner in the Technol-
ogy-Enabled Health and Well-
ness Category was My Waiting
Room, a cell phone application
meant to personalize a patient's
waiting room experience.
Vic Strecher, director of inno-
vation and social entrepreneur-
ship in the School of Public
Health, and Ann Verhey-Henke,
associate director of innovation
and social entrepreneurship in
the School of Public Health, led
the competition. Strecher said
,the creative outlet provided
through the competition was
overdue for Public Health stu-
dents.
"We realized that a lot of stu-
dents come here to the School of
Public Health now with a very

draw.
"I don't know if it's that much
excitement," said fifth-year senior
center Jordan Morgan. "It's not
like we didn't expect to be in the
tournament."
That speaks to the direction of
the program, because Beilein cer-
tainly remembers different in his
coaching career.
"I've been in that room when
you lost the (conference) cham-
pionship and you weren't going
anywhere," he said. "Or maybe
the NIT. This is huge to walk from
that room and go see us in the
NCAA Tournament. It's terrific."
Morgan is the only one on the
team to have experienced a sea-
son that Michigan failed to reach
the NCAA Tournament, but for
the rest of the team, that concept
seems foreign.
"With the tradition in this
program, you start to expect that
you're going to be in the tourna-
ment," Stauskas said. "It doesn't
mean we're gonna take this for
granted. But all year the tourna-
ment was kind of an expectation
for all of us. So the fact that we're
here now, we're just happy, and
we're excited, ready to go."
strong interest in social entre-
preneurship, and creating a new
public health," Strecher said. "I
found that they have wonderful
ideas, but there is no avenue to
take those early ideas and create
deeper concepts from them and,
even beyond that, create prod-
ucts or services."
The presentation featured
nationally renowned poetic
voice Sekou Andrews. Through
his pieces on the growing rela-
tionship between public health
and technology, he elicited
laughs and a standing ovation
from the audience. As a former
fifth grade teacher, Andrews
said he maintains a commitment
to education.
"When a school calls, I tend
to come," Andrews said. "It was
an opportunity to inspire on a
topic that I care about - innova-
tions in health."
Andrews said one message
of his poems was for people to
embrace change.
"Technology is causing the
world to move faster and faster,"
Andrews said. "Those who can
keep up are going to be success-
ful whether it's in entrepreneur-
ial endeavors, whether it's in
healthcare endeavors, whether
it's in capital endeavors."
Life is good brand comes
to Ann Arbor in new shop
Clothing brand
opens store on
Main Street
By CHRISTY SONG
Daily StaffReporter
Optimists rejoice.
Life is good has opened its lat-
est retail location in Ann Arbor.
The store opened its doors
March 9 and hosted its grand
opening Saturday and Sunday,
which featured Michigan-relat-
ed Life is good gear, free give-
aways and a 20 percent discount
off of a purchase of $50 or more.
The retail store took the place
of Seyfried Jewelers, located at
304 S. Main Street, after six and
a half weeks of renovation.
The store occupies 1,000
square feet and features Life
is good products from T-shirts
to shorts to water bottles. The
Black Pearl, the next door sea-
food and martini bar, will use the
back roomofthe store for private
events.
Store owner Mark Messmore,
a School of Education alum, said
that he decided to open the shop
because the brand is well suited
for Ann Arbor shoppers.
Life is good is noted for its
grinning mascot, Jake. Mess-
more said the brand was tradi-
tionally a resort-town mainstay.
The company is based in Mas-
sachusetts and has 4,500 retail
stores nationwide, all privately
owned.
"They are sort of turning the
brand in a new direction and it's
more toward college campuses,
toward the younger professional
look," Messmore said. "It still
caters to the outdoor activist
type person. It's the right kind of
mix and it goes really well with
the Ann Arbor crowd."
Messmore said Main Street
is an ideal location for the store
due to the foot traffic in the
area. When guests are waiting
for their reservations at nearby
restaurants, Messmore said he
anticipates they will peruse local
shops like his own in the mean-
time.
Messmore does not anticipate
competition from nearby stores
like Moosejaw. He said Life is
good products are unique and
complimentarytotheir products.
Messmore said his ultimate
goal isto provide a personal, gen-
eral neighborhood shop where
customers can get the full Life is
good experience.
"I think as this brand grows
and repositions itself to maintain
its loyalty to tried and true but
also turn to a younger crowd,"
Messmore said. "This store is a
pivot point for the brand and I
think that it will lend itself really
well to the people here."
Regular store hours are10 a.m.
to 8 p.m. from Sunday through
Thursday and 10 a.m. to 10 p.m.
from on Fridays and Saturdays.
Rescue workers continue
clean-up work from blast
Cause of deadly
NYC explosion still
undetermined
NEW YORK (AP) - Emer-
gency workers sifted through
debris Saturday from the site of
a deadly explosion at two New
York City apartment buildings
as they worked to clear the way
for investigators to search for
clues that might reveal what
caused the blast.
Fire Commissioner Salva-
tore Cassano said rescue work-
ers reached the rear of the
basement Saturday but said
that investigation of the pip-
ing and meters in the front of
the basement that will help
explain what caused the blast
that killed eight people will
likely start on Sunday.
He said that the National
Transportation Safety Board
should be able to start pres-
sure-testing the pipes Sunday.
. Arson detectives and fire
marshals have been waiting to
enter the basements to exam-
ine meters, check pipes and
inspect any possible ignition
sources, such as light switches,
that might have caused the
blast.
The theory that the explo-
sion was due to a gas leak
gained momentum Friday after
the NTSB, which investigates
pipeline accidents, said under-
ground tests conducted in the
hours after the explosion reg-
istered high concentrations
of natural gas. The NTSB will
conduct its own inquiry after
police and fire officials deter-
mine what might have caused
the blast.
Cassano said about 15 per-
cent of the debris was left on
the site late Saturday after-
noon.
An uplifting moment from
the painstaking recovery effort
came as crews pulled a large
water-damaged Bible from the
rubble of the Spanish Christian
Church, which was located in
one of the two destroyed build-
ings. About two dozen people,
including clergy members, car-
ried the Bible in a solemn pro-
cession near the East Harlem
site.
"This was in the depths of
the rubble. Somehow God pro-
tected it," said Rick del Rio, a
bishop at the Church of God.
The church's pastor, Thom-
as Perez, suffered heart palpi-
tations when he saw the Bible,
said Letitia James, the city's
public advocate. He was taken
by ambulance to a hospital as a
precaution, supporters said.
Cassano said Perez was
overwhelmed with emotion.
"It was singed but it meant
an awful lot to the pastor," he
said. "It showed the pastor that
they'll be rebuilding."
