I enjoy History and became interested in genealogy in 2001 when helping my mother search for her family. I try my hardest to post only facts on these memorials, if you do find a mistake please contact me and I'll fix it.
Your welcome to use the information and cemetery photos I have added on here (just indicate who provided the photo and information and that it is being used with permission.) I have seen many people on ancestry.com take my photos and misuse them and also place them with the wrong people.
I would like to bring to the ATTENTION of fellow researchers on here who work very hard walking the cemeteries taking photos and posting memorials for everyone's benefit on here, I know it takes a lot of time and energy and gas and giving of one's self, I am thankful for all those who summit memorials on here BUT I have in the last 3 years found that many of my close relatives that have past away already have a memorial made for them by someone else who is not related to them. I am finding memorials for my family members made the day of their burial or the day after by others on here who are not related to them.(Do you scour the Obits in the paper and run to make the memorials before our loved ones are even buried?) When you lose a family member you are grieving and are not thinking of making memorials the day of their burial or the day after. It would be polite and respectful if you would wait a month before you place your memorials on here to GIVE the grieving family member time to place their own memorial for their loved one on here. I know there are FAG guidelines but many memorial posters on here don't follow the guidelines and refuse transfers. I have been ignored many times when asking for a transfer for sibling, parents and grandparents by people who are not even related. It seems some people are just out for the numbers, how many memorials they can contribute. Lets all remember what FAG is here for and be respectful of others, and PLEASE don't make duplicates of memorials when you are transcribing the cemeteries. PLEASE check to see if there is one already made for that person. I am coming across too too many duplicates on here and many that are not willing to delete their duplicate contributions.

Robert Dorris son of William the Patriot
I am trying to help a friend prove her lineage to William Dorris, who I believe you are also descended from. On your memorial for Robert Dorris, married to Jenny Rippy, you indicate that Robert is William's son - and we believe that to be true as well. However, we need to prove that link - because William had a brother Robert (wife Mary) who had a son also named Robert.
What evidence do you have that the Robert in your memorial is the son of William Dorris and Eleanor Brown. I have her pension file naming their children - but the birth year is a year off from the tombstone pictured. Can you help me?
Thanks for all your hard work and attention to detail.

Thomas Newington Wills
I am researching the same Thomas N. Wills born 1822.
I believe he was married a 3rd time in Indiana to a Almira Gannon (Cavan) in 1857. Add to the list of children are Annie,Jenie,Amanda,Ida,all born in the 1860s. His last 2 children are Clarence,and Edith F. born 1879 and 1881.
I have Thomas born in Kentucky, his father Eija born in North Carolina.
The family moved to Antioch, Caifornia
I am trying to find Elija's father and if the family immigrated from Scotland at some point.
If you have any other information on Thomas and his side of the family would love to hear it.
Thank you, Rose

I apologize--I see how easy it is to make a mistake. I listed the identical birth and death dates for the two Elijah Dorris; however, they are two different men. The older Elijah, son of Wm. & Eleanor, was born 27 Feb 1786 in Orange, Caswell, North Carolina, died 12 Jan 1875 in Saline, Illinois. My great grandfather Elijah, who married Mary Cook, was b. Feb 29, 1840 in Monroe, IL and d. Jan 21, 1875 Saline Co., IL. --- an embarrassed Lisa Pollard Zycher

David L. Ikenberry was named Professor of Finance and Dean of the Leeds School of Business in 2011. He holds a B.S. degree from the Pennsylvania State University (1983), an M.M. from the Kellogg Graduate School of Management, Northwestern University (1985), and a Ph.D. from the University of Illinois (1990). Dr. Ikenberry started his academic career at the Jones Graduate School of Management at Rice University, in Houston, Texas. After twelve years at Rice, he returned to the University of Illinois. He teaches investment and corporate finance to both graduate and executive students and has received several awards for his work in the classroom, including winning prestigious awards for teaching in 1996 and 1999 while at Rice. In 1997 and again in 2002, Business Week magazine named him among the best instructors in the U.S.
Dr. Ikenberry's research concerns a broad array of empirical issues in finance. A substantial portion of his work has focused on issues relating to long-horizon stock returns, a young and often debated area of inquiry in finance. Much of his work challenges fundamental notions of informational efficiency in equity markets. Past studies have focused on unexpected long-horizon return performance relating to specific corporate events, including stock splits, exchange listings and proxy fights. His more general work on the unusual properties of long-horizon returns has been used to help explain why professional money managers frequently under-perform the S&P 500 index, even when investing in S&P stocks. Perhaps his most noted work concerns stock repurchase programs. He has authored several papers in this area looking at performance subsequent to both U.S. and Canadian firms who have engaged this now widespread corporate transaction. His work provides insight into issues about how and why firms repurchase stock and garners substantial interest in both the academic and corporate communities. His current research investigates the clustering in the increase in stock prices that has occurred in the U.S. since the move to decimal pricing.
Dr. Ikenberry is frequently asked to speak to academic, government, corporate officers, and the broad investment communities. His research is regularly mentioned in the popular press in such publications as The Wall Street Journal, Forbes, Fortune, Smart Money, Barron's, Business Week and The Economist. He is a frequent guest on various television programs including CNBC, Bloomberg Television, and the Nightly Business Report. On occasion, corporations ask Dr. Ikenberry to comment on various aspects of their corporate financing decisions including their dividend and share repurchase policies.

Well, we found out that everything this salesperson said was a lie. RCI turned out to be a disaster, we didn't ear enough points to go any where, and every time we called, we were rudely told off that the planning should start a year in advance. Finally, one person in 2010 said that our points and program was so small that we were never going to get anywhere with it, so I canceled it right away to save us another annual fee. Currently, we are paying a maintenance fee that keeps increasing yearly, there's no explanation for it. We found out that once we canceled the RCI program we were able to go to the resort once every three years, and we couldn't even spread the week. Our deal is so bad that we can not sell it. The management at the resort directs us to our contract. A book written by their lawyers that we can't even figure out what it's all about. We were naive and trusting. This was a true ripoff. We have no hopes to get out of this, but must get the word out. Every year that I get their invoice, I am reminded of my own stupidity, it makes me angry that I am paying my hard earned money towards something that has no benefit whatsoever for me or my family.

Death From Above!
3/4/2014 – Michigan 84, Illinois 53 – 22-7, 14-3 Big Ten – Outright champs
Good. In your face, Nanna Egwu. Good. [Bryan Fuller]
Before Ace took over full-time basketball preview duties, I wrote many of them. I eschewed "preview" to call these posts "Death From Above," because I thought it sounded cool. I fielded regular questions as to what the hell that meant.
If you want the deep background, "death from above" was a maneuver you could execute in walking-robot-wargame Battletech wherein your giant man-shaped robot would take off and attempt to land on the head of an opposing giant man-shaped robot. The goal was to crush the cockpit and pilot, rendering the exoskeleton inert, dripping ominous fluids.
I can only assume that all has been made clear after Michigan's high-arcing deep shots proved laser-guided at Illinois. John Beilein basketball is death from above.
Complete Illinois game notes, updated:
GRIII starts with layup
— Ace Anbender (@AceAnbender) March 5, 2014
Assembly Hall (not that Assembly Hall) drips today.
The three pointer has always been the great leveler in college basketball. Poke a random NCAA tourney upset and you're likely to find a bunch of short guys firing in threes as the favorite struggles outside the arc.
John Beilein came of age as a coach in a milieu of random players barely recruited. He found success by taking spare parts and arranging them into a machine that rained in threes. This was generally effective but not as much as legend would have it. Beilein won regular season conference championships twice in ten years at Richmond and Canisius, and finished third in the gargantuan Big East in 2005-2006. His reputation rested on an upset of South Carolina as a 14-seed with Richmond and the Pittsnogle-era WVU team's runs into the Elite Eight and Sweet 16.
But he'd lifted teams without structural advantage. He made every team he'd had competitive after a one-year adjustment period, though, and that seemed like gold to a Michigan fan. At the time the prospect of a consistently .500 Big Ten team with the occasional third-place finish followed by tourney upsets seemed like heaven. I was stridently in favor of Beilein's hire because I thought he'd turn Michigan into the kind of program that pushes Duke to the brink in the second round.
In that post I asserted that 21-14, 9-9 Michigan would be a one seed in an "exceeded expectations" tournament. I also asserted this:
I've been searching for a Michigan equivalent and in my memory can only come up with the '97 national title team. Unless there was a basketball team that outdid this year's—unlikely—I think you have to go back to 1969 to pull another team that so wildly exceeded what was expected of them.
To find a team with as good a claim to exceeding expectations as this 14-3 outright-Big-Ten-champs outfit that lost Trey Burke, Tim Hardaway Jr, and Mitch McGary you have to go back… uh… one year, when Trey Burke blew up into a Naismith winner and Michigan reached the national title game. The next potential candidate makes you reach back all the way to a team that shared a Big Ten title with Zack Novak at power forward… two years ago.
This is all very strange, not only to us, but to the guy who assembled this unlikely powerhouse.
"I don't know what to think. I have this funny, quiet feeling where you set out to accomplish a goal and you accomplish it. It's strange." [ed: –John Beilein]
— Joe Stapleton (@joe_stapes) March 5, 2014
The warmness inside you right now is thanks to the arc on the court that separates two from three.
The great leveler levels because threes are great shots, amongst the best shots. Beilein structured his entire basketball career around that intuition, constructing small-ball outfits everywhere he's gone. Sometimes he had four shooters; sometimes he had five. One guy probed inside as the other four created space around the arc, giving everyone space and time to find shots at the rim.
While the mechanism has shifted as Michigan acquires ball-screen maestro after ball-screen maestro, the overall pattern remains the same. The bigs shoot 70% because the opponent can't let Michigan get threes off. The threes come when they come and go in at a high clip, and something Beilein is in charge of floats higher than they have been in a long time.
It's only right that at the pinnacle of Beilein's regular season career the threes would rain in at will. Dan Dakich keeps saying "the ball knows." While this is normally irritating to your engineering-oriented author, as Michigan rained in death from above yesterday it did feel a little like the three point line sought to repay him for the long years of faith and devotion.
Well, then. There is very little to say about that game except "please Stauskas don't hurt 'em (except do)." Michigan shot 70% from three, goodnight, analysis over.
Other than the swelling three-point percentages from Michigan's shooters the main takeaway here was that Spike needs to take care of the ball better in the late stages of laughers when he is pursuing a double-digit A:TO ratio across the Big Ten season.
[Speaking of Spike, and since there's not really much to talk about game-wise, remember this site's obsession with NC State hobbit PG Tyler Lewis last year? Lewis was a McDonalds All-American despite being the same stature as Albrecht, and then he proceeded to do very little.
Lewis vs Spike, year two:
Lewis is stuck on a team that doesn't assist on many shots, stats are not the be all and end all, etc., but there's not much question who you'd rather have on your team. Hail this staff's talent identification. This has been Brian's Ongoing Obsession With Random College Basketball Players theater.
There will be no Nnanna Egwu section this time since he's pulled his DREB rate into the solid double-digits.]
But seriously. Strugging to say much of anything… oh, okay.
Jon Horford is really into Camus. There is just a shower of post-title photos featuring members of the team smiling an Jon Horford being Jon Horford, and thinking about things and stuff, deep things and hard stuff.
[Bryan Fuller]
Not even a locker room shot can rouse the corners of Horford's mouth from their slumber:
That's not his postgame photo role, and that's why having Andrew Dakich around is crucial.
Like father, like son.
If I make a joke here I will get a nasty tweet from the man himself [Bryan Fuller]
Non-trivial Horford business. One game ago, Horford got a quick hook in the second half after Mo Walker went to work on him. In this outing, Morgan hurt his back trying to take a charge and was limited to seven minutes. Horford stepped in and picked up ten rebounds; Illinois was limited to five offensive rebounds. On the year, Horford's DREB rate is a McGary-like 26.1.
It's nice to see him bounce back. There have been a number of games this year when one center or the other was having a rough day until the other guy stepped in. Having that flexibility is a big help; hopefully the Morgan withdrawal was a precautionary measure only.
If push comes to shove the obvious move is to try to get through the last few games without him. The only thing at stake now is a two or three seed line.
Speaking of. Expect Michigan to PLAY SOME WEIRD GUYS in the Big Ten tourney. Beilein has always run out some WTF lineups when faced with the possibility of three games in three days, and with Morgan questionable, Max Bielfeldt may be called on for double-digit minutes. Having a 6'6" center is not conducive to winning the Big Ten tourney title, but I don't think Beilein cares one whit about that.
Nobody seems to. A lot of fanbases openly pine for a second-game exit so as to not have three consecutive games before a potential Thursday/Saturday NCAA tournament weekend. They should really just dump the thing and play a couple more conference games, but I don't think the NCAA would let that fly.
Defense? Illinois is a very bad offensive team (206th on Kenpom) but they got worse after Michigan dealt with them. After 1 PPP in the first half, Illinois couldn't do much of anything in the second. That marks consecutive opponents held under a point per possession. This is not exactly the Goin' To Work Pistons yet, but Michigan doesn't have to make a ton of progress in the D department to look like an (even more) dangerous tournament opponent.
No idea exactly why this improvement is going on. If they can maintain that through the next few games that would be encouraging.
Seed lines. Michigan is still stuck on the three-line with little upward mobility unless they can leapfrog the top ACC teams (Syracuse, Duke, Virginia) or pass Wisconsin by winning the Big Ten Title. Jerry Palm did pump Michigan over Duke given Duke's extremely weak road accomplishments and Syracuse is in a full-on tailspin after losing to Georgia Tech at home. (I told you about Syracuse.) If the Orange lose their season-ender against Florida State, a game that Kenpom predicts will be a nailbiter, they could drop to the three line and open up a slot for Michigan as a two. Virginia will provide competition there.
Not that it matters much this year, as one of the most wide-open tournaments in memory beckons.
Glennwatch. Did some good things—couple steals, good work from within the arc, a three. Drove to the bucket for a basket, too. His steal lead to a fast break on which Tracy Abrams got a contest in that by all rights should have forced a layup attempt. NOPE. Dunk metropolis.
Afterwards Abrams looked like he'd seen the Ark of the Covenant.
ENHANCE [Bryan Fuller]
One negative thing: he's got to stop bringing the ball up when he gets a rebound. His handle is very vulnerable to open-court steals and he doesn't initiate much transition offense.
Also, he took a contested three-point jack. That is vaguely acceptable if you are Nik Stauskas who rains death from above. When you're at 27% on the year, don't take that shot. Taking open ones, okay. Those are still decent to good shots even for a guy locked in a sophomore slump as bad as Tim Hardaway Jr's. That hand-in-the-face stuff not so much.
Still, we can add this to the recent string of encouraging GRIII performances after 13 points on 10 shot equivalents.
Just when you thought he was bottled up. Stauskas is 12 of 17 from three in his last two games, pushing his season average to 46%. One of them was a contested jack in front of 6'11" Nnanna Egwu. Another was from the parking lot right before the half. Good lord.
This is why Michigan should not settle for long twos early in the shot clock, because at any time they can get a switch and have a guy take a pretty decent three point look.
The climb. Remember early in the year when people were projecting Wisconsin would walk away with the title because of schedule imbalance? Well, Michigan's single plays were Northwestern, Penn State, Illinois, and Ohio State. The only team not in the vicinity of the bottom of the Big Ten standings is OSU, and Michigan only got a road game against them. This is the opposite of a fluke.
Just following coach's orders.
While I'm still posting, click here for the broadcast view of the shot and celebration, both of which are magnificent.

One Frame At A Time: Michigan State
I believe Jen Bielema has a term for this.
She calls it "terrible help defense."
[The rest of the MSU game in GIFs after THE JUMP.]
Aneurysm Two
1/25/2014 – Michigan 80, Michigan State 75 – 14-4, 7-0 Big Ten
Keith Appling had just jumped on Caris LeVert's back from behind as LeVert was going up for a layup. Using LeVert's back as leverage, Appling raked his hands across LeVert's, sending both LeVert and the ball flying. The ref on the baseline looked on dumbly and did nothing as Michigan State took the ball upcourt.
On the sideline, John Beilein executed a sort of rage-squat as he barked at the guy who had evidently been placed on the sideline without any instructions as to what the shiny silver thing in his mouth did. MSU got a layup on the other end; Michigan dumped the ball down to Robinson and got a whistle for an extended hand-check by Russell Byrd.
This did not mollify Beilein. He'd seen enough. He'd had just about enough of being the corny high school chemistry teacher kids roll their eyes at.
artist's impression of MSU lineup
In the aftermath we got the usual press conference from Tom Izzo in which he specifically enumerated all the things he wasn't blaming the loss on. Payne's out. (You may have heard of Mitch McGary, though maybe I shouldn't bring him up since he outcoached Izzo.) Dan Dakich trolled Dawson. (Izzo's the one who recruited Punchy McAngerIssues.) Harris and Appling got tired. (Because they had to play fewer minutes than Stauskas and LeVert.) Appling got his wrist dinged a month ago and can't shoot. (Selected Appling scorelines since injury-type substance: 27, 14, 14, 20, 24. Three point shooting in Big Ten play: 31%, right in line with last year's 32%.) He had to play the crappy players behind his starters. (They are crappy because he hasn't brought in a premier player other than Harris in three years.)
And, of course, the piece de resistance: "curious calls" that happened when the game was tied at 60.
The nerve of this guy.
Midway through the second half, Spike Albrecht was informed that to receive a timeout from the officials he has to submit a 20-page research paper on the semiotics of the term "timeout" and submit seven different forms of identification, three of which do not exist. Gary Harris's brilliant perimeter defense on Nik Stauskas was greatly aided by constant jersey tugs and in a couple cases just flat out grabbing the dude as he tried to cut. Travis Trice's attempts to stay in front of anyone on the floor via arm, shoulder, trip, or pathetic mewling would have been hilarious if they had not been uncalled and therefore enraging. Jordan Morgan fouled out on a series of ghost calls, including a double technical acquired after Russell Byrd, of all people, taunted Glenn Robinson. That was Morgan's fourth; Izzo managed to complain that Appling picking up his third with under eight minutes left was a great strain because it forced him to the bench.
Yes, in the same press conference in which he bitched about Appling not getting enough rest. The nerve of this guy.
By the end of Izzo's self-pity-fest you could feel the dim bulbs in the room composing their 30 for 30 pitches:
What if I told you that a team with a lottery pick shooting guard playing out of his mind stayed within five points of a team down the Naismith winner, another first round NBA draftee, and a preseason All-American?
What if I told you they were playing at home, but there was that one time a referee was not utterly petrified of someone in the stands calling him a bad name?
What if I told you that the first team had actually won two of the previous seven games against the second team?
ESPN 30 for 30 presents "THE GREATEST COACH IN THE UNIVERSE OF FOREVER."
Tuesday, January 25th, 2014.
Post-loss Izzo press conferences are IQ tests for Lansing-oriented sports reporters, and they all fail, always. A Mike Griffith gentleman writing for MLive used these sentences back-to-back:
There was no mention of the Spartans having to use a 10th different starting lineup on account of Dawson's injury.
"In the 30 years I've been here, I've never been more proud of a team,'' Izzo said. "I played guys I haven't played in a month.''
Someone remind Griffith to breathe regularly, because it's clear that he doesn't have enough cells to spare for autonomic brain stem functions.
I know. I know that our nation is built on brazenly lying to each other. Cigarettes and organic food and the waiting list for Michigan football season tickets, it's all the same. Some person thinks they can make money on some activity and just lies and lies until the jig's up. But at some point self-respect has to kick in with the observers. I mean. At least you'd think so, right?
This is why I don't go to press conferences. I would just laugh, and laugh, and throw in some derisive snorts and eventually I would just start asking questions like unedited versions of the things I write and eventually I wouldn't get to go to press conferences. I am not a sports journalist because I can't smile when someone deposits a plate of poop in front of my face and calls it pâté.
He exploded! With just over four minutes left there was some sort of mutual in-our-grills screaming session, followed by Beilein explaining to one of the other refs that the other end of the Breaking Beilein drama had in fact bumped him—there was a lot of pointing at Beilein's nose in this section, to indicate that someone had impacted this section of Beilein's all-encompassing rage—followed by the ref who had apparently taken aggressive physical action against a coach coming forth to apologize.
It was completely insane. Every neutral I follow on twitter who was watching the game immediately tweeted "I have never seen John Beilein anything like this," echoing the play by play announcer and your brain. Beilein took 30 years of goodwill built up by not being Bo Ryan or Tom Izzo to referees and cashed every last scrap in, somehow avoiding a technical throughout this sequence.
And, of course, it was completely for naught. The very next Michigan possession saw Nik Stauskas thunder in for a transition dunk; Keith Appling again attempted to make a defensive play from behind. This was the result.
SEEMS LEGIT [Dustin Johnston/UMHoops]
This was adjudged to be all ball; Michigan did not score on the ensuing possession. Beilein could do nothing but laugh bitterly on the sideline.
If we're being honest with ourselves, yeah, Horford was moving on the first "curious call" and Appling got hit by a non-stationary defender as he took a shot. In a basketball game, that is a foul. Whatever happens in the Breslin Center is not a basketball game, though, and maybe John Beilein screaming BE A MAN or IS THIS WHAT YOU WANT BASKETBALL TO BE or I USUALLY GET A FOOTLONG TURKEY WITH THE CHIPOTLE SAUCE AND EXTRA OLIVES WHAT IS YOUR PREFERENCE reminded the men with whistles that road teams are people too. Or maybe it was just continued incompetence. I'm betting on incompetence.
Either way, nearly three years to the day after Zack Novak's Aneurysm of Leadership propelled Michigan to its first win at Michigan State since the Harding administration, another spittle-flecked unhinged rant propelled Michigan. Two minutes of game time later, Michigan had gone on an 8-0 run featuring two wild Keith Appling drives on one side of the floor and perfectly executed transitions on the other.
Beilein sucked all the anger out of his team and unleashed it on those who deserved it, and all that was left was cool execution. In the ensuing parade to the free throw line Michigan took deep breaths and drove the nails deeper, until Izzo was wiping away tears in the press conference and imagining an alternate reality where he was the put-upon underdog.
Bad news, everybody! Technical issues blew up the first half of our podcast. We are trying to reschedule and retape; upshot is no podcast today.
Double point us the way to victory [Bryan Fuller]
Wow. Going into Gauntlet #1, Michigan fans were demanding one win, hoping for two, and not even thinking about three. Three wins later, Michigan is clearly in the driver's seat for the Big Ten title. Not only have they disposed of three top ten opponents, they've taken out two of them on the road. They've also put away road games against a third tourney-bound B10 team in Minnesota and Increasingly Dangerous Nebraska™.
Meanwhile, as Indiana and Illinois continue to struggle* future trips to the Big Ten's sundry Assembly Halls seem significantly less ominous than they did a couple weeks ago. Because basketball is basketball, Michigan's going to have a night where they shoot ARGH from three they're still going to drop a game or two against teams that are clearly beneath them in the Big Ten pecking order. Even so, all they have to do is split Gauntlet #2…
- @ Iowa
- Wisconsin
…and it's hard to see anyone passing them. Catching, maybe. Passing… nyet.
If Iowa can beat MSU at home tomorrow, Michigan will be two games clear, and their primary chasers have a schedule that's just as difficult. MSU has games at Wisconsin, Michigan, and Ohio State plus a home game against Iowa; Iowa has home games against OSU, Michigan, and Wisconsin plus trips to Minnesota and MSU.
*[Indiana is now just ten spots ahead of Nebraska in Kenpom and Illinois is 15 spots back. BTW, I am officially claiming Nebraska as my Most Interesting Big Ten Team of 2014-15.]
Chunkums. Yes. Yesssssss. Yesssssssss.
Hitting things with your hand is bad. Appling's wrist is barely attached to the rest of his body and therefore he can't shoot. This is known. It is gospel.
Idea: maybe you should stop hitting things with your hands. Desks, floors, engineers in Rather Hall: these are all objects that should not have force applied to them with hands. Appling and Dawson should have taken NO HIT HARD THINGS WITH SELF 101, but they heard it was a lot harder than BANG THING BANG BANG LOUD 100.
This was slow and weird and distorted. This game featured a full two minutes of intentional fouling and no-threes defense, seriously distorting the stats. Michigan had a whopping 16 free throws on intentional fouls, and then their intentionally crappy interior defense made the game look more offensively oriented and faster than it was.
This was going to be a snail-tastic 56 or 57 possession game if either team had gotten clear by the two minute mark; it eventually got to a still-slow 63. At the point the fouling started, Michigan had 66 points on 54 possessions (1.22 PPP) and MSU had 60 (1.11). By game's end those numbers had been pushed to 1.27 and 1.19.
So… still offensively oriented, and no wonder with Michigan blazing the nets from deep and MSU following suit with a 50%/41% shooting. A great deal of this was acquired with difficulty since the refs were in a whistle-swallowing mode.
Also distorted: individual stats. If you were shocked that Derrick Walton ended up with 19 points you are not alone. He had nine before the and-one that put Michigan firmly in the drivers seat and then acquired 8 FTAs in desperation time. He hit seven, which was greatly appreciated by Michigan fans and their cardiologists.
This still didn't warrant the BREAKOUT PERFORMANCE WOW reaction the media provided. Walton was good; he did not drive much offense. He picked his spots and fulfilled the niche this site talked about a couple weeks back. This is good and important, of course. It's just not quite as impressive as the box score makes it seem.
FWIW, the other eight intentional FTAs were distributed equally between Robinson and LeVert.
okay this is a two but you get the point [Dustin Johnston/UMHoops]
Except the threes. On my re-watch the thing that leapt out at me was the fact that Michigan's blazing three point shooting was a direct result of MSU giving Michigan a ton of great looks. Caris's game-tying bomb late was a great example. MSU was so concerned about giving up penetration and so aggressive about disrupting Michigan's offensive flow that they plain forgot to defend a corner three from a 38% shooter.
Meanwhile, screens were gone under on Nik Stauskas, or bigs did not aggressively hedge, allowing him to get quality looks that were at best semi-contested. Peripheral shooters took almost entirely wide open looks—IIRC one or two of Irvin's were contested.
Board war: in which a stalemate is declared victory. Michigan actually out-rebounded Michigan State. Yes. Michigan grabbed 11 of 31 opportunities on the offensive boards and held Michigan State to 10 of 33. Michigan's output is thanks to Jordan Morgan and a whopping four OREBs credited to "team."
The main disappointment. Robinson had a pretty miserable night all around. He was hit on the arm without calls on three or four of his shots, but he's got Kenny Kaminski and Denzel Valentine on him. He should be able to get things that are not jumpers. He did only once with an awkward but effective up and under to kick off the second half. When Michigan was looking to generate secondary offense, they turned to LeVert. Robinson did well against Iowa after some early issues on the defensive boards; Michigan wanted more from him in this game.
Nope. Some M fans are trying to make a big deal out of the incident with about two minutes left where Harris and LeVert both ended up on the ground. LeVert ended up there because Valentine came in and whacked him either in the stomach or the viagras; that contact was certainly not intentional.
It was about as bad as the event earlier in the game where Horford was going for a rebound and accidentally brushed/whacked Trice, who went down in a heap because it is really hard to not be in a heap when you're Travis Trice. He's just heap-oriented.
I'd like to thank The Free Press for being a wretched hive of scum and villainy that naturally induces Michigan fans to seek out content not designed to enrage them.
Oh man this guy:
Oh boy, this Michigan State alum really didn't take this Nik Stauskas kiss very well at all | http://t.co/ednO8x3goM pic.twitter.com/qs3RQgf00c

This is why you shouldn't get up in arms about Richard Sherman, because then you start complaining about a lack of class while wishing someone would get maimed for blowing you a kiss. This spurred a long twitter discussion about the practicality or lack thereof of maiming someone in an alley. Twitter thinks it is not very practical since Nik Stauskas probably goes to, like, basketball gyms instead of hanging out in alleys.
Five key plays. The dagger:
UMHoops recap and Walton feature. Chantel Jennings, who is not Chantel Jefferies. Daily.
Unverified Voracity Is In, Is Out
The ineffable lightness of McGary. Via UMHoops, Mitch McGary and Jon Horford have different opinions about things.
Did they play an Adam Sandler movie on the court at some point? Because this is how that would work out.
One in, one out. Injury news for this weekend's state game is a rollercoaster. First, Adriean Payne tells Facebook that he's been cleared to play Saturday. Then:
BREAKING: Branden Dawson breaks his hand, will be out four to five week. Heading to surgery soon.
— State News Sports (@thesnews_sports) January 23, 2014
How did he acquire this injury?
Dawson says he was watching TV clips this morning with the team and got frustrated, slammed hand against table, suffering injury.
— Joe Rexrode (@joerexrode) January 23, 2014
Dude. Just lie. Say you got it caught in a thresher or something. This is not the time for honesty.
Dawson is a beast on the offensive glass and an efficient finisher off putbacks and dumpoffs but not a lot of State's offense ran through him. If Payne is full go and mobile by Saturday I'd guess they play him at the four, which he did plenty of last year with Nix around, and go with Costello and Gauna at the five.
State's other option is to play a lot of Kenny Kaminski. Kaminski is a redshirt freshman stretch four who is Just A Shooter™, with 31 3PAs vs 8 twos attempted on the year. He is hitting 55% of his threes, so, yeah, check him hand in the face etc. Kaminski doesn't have enough playing time to definitely say much about him but from appearances he's not in Dawson's class as a defender or rebounder.
Either way, MSU gets more shooting and less defense on the floor without Dawson.
UPDATE: Izzo says Payne's shot at playing is "slim to none" and that Kaminski is expected to start, presumably next to Costello.
Meanwhile for Michigan. If you're concerned about the prospect of Appling going up against Spike, it sounds like Walton will be just fine by Saturday:
Beilein said that Walton had a high temperature and flu-like symptoms, so there was uncertainty about how much he could play and contribute.
"He got to see the doctor and kept him away from everybody all day, so he didn't even go to practice or see the game plan," Beilein said. "The fever broke and he felt good today, enough to at least give us a minute or two. Spike was fine and I'm really pleased with the way he played."
Again, if Walton is still a bit shaky Michigan can get away with Spike on Travis Trice whenever he's out there, which could keep Walton's minutes down to about 20 if necessary.
Grantland breaks us down. Shane Ryan on the unnoticeable slowness of Michigan's offense:
… unlike other plodding offenses, it never really looks like Beilein's teams are taking their time. The reason for that is the Wolverines are astoundingly efficient, year after year, to the point that every possession takes on a rhythm and purpose of its own. And the results are so continually positive that there's drama and anticipation in the lead-up; while teams like Wisconsin (no. 300 in Division I tempo) and Virginia (333) can suck the life out of a game with their effective control of pace, and others like Clemson (348) and Miami (dead last at 351) are clearly taking their time because they have no other option, Beilein's offenses are so fluid and effective that they retain their sense of drama. Michigan is slow, but never boring.
Also, Stauskas highlights:
And with Michigan's resurgence comes the candy that is Luke Winn saying something interesting about you in his power rankings:
The Wolverines' Nik Stauskas-led offense has an adjusted efficiency of 120.1 points per 100 possessions, which ranks third nationally ... and is pretty much just as efficient as it was last season, when it scored 120.3 points/100 possessions.
They check in ninth, up from 31st(!) last week. It has been a good week.
Chad Ford don't fail me now. Chad Ford's latest mock draft($) for ESPN has zero Wolverines in the first round. Yes, NBA GMs. You are getting very sleepy. You are agreeing with Chad Ford in every way. You have completed your scouting for the season.
FWIW, Stauskas downplayed his dad's quote from the SI article:
"I apologize for my father's comments," he said Wednesday. "He doesn't know what he's talking about. I haven't really thought anything about that yet. We'll just address it after the season."
I know he's got to say what he's got to say; the dad comment seems like a moment of unguarded honesty. We'll see where he's projected; if it's the first round I imagine he's out.
Mixed reports on Schofield. Mike Schofield's at the Senior Bowl this week trying to establish his draft bonafides. After a couple days moving back to guard didn't seem to go well, they've put him back at his natural position, where he has impressed:
"Not a highly acclaimed kid; a late add [to the roster]," Mayock said. "I thought he stoned everybody in the [1-on-1] drill. Now, he's a right tackle only, in my opinion. They tried him at guard. Right tackle only is not a good thing to be in the NFL unless you're a starter. I think he has the potential to be a starting right tackle."
You can look at this as affirmation that Darrell Funk can develop offensive linemen or further condemnation of Michigan's OL last year as you so desire.
But where is the part where he rescues a bus full of kittens? MLive profiles Andrew Copp:
Copp's 3.2 G.P.A. wasn't quite good enough for admission into the business school, so he worries about what lies in store in the future, even if it does include a stop in the NHL. He also said he at times feels at a disadvantage in the classroom.
"I study a lot, but when we have games and practice, some of these kids are still studying the whole time," Copp says with a palpable stress in his voice. "When there's a lot of readings in particular, other students don't have a five or six hour block and weekends taken up by games where they have the opportunity to study."
That's confidence in a kid: letting a reporter follow him around for a day.
Etc.: Dave Brandon sent around empty planes during the most recent coaching search. I think that means we win. Tom Izzo being histrionic? Never. Sports are supposed to be fun, and Richard Sherman is that. Sacks are lies.
One Frame At A Time: Nebraska & Penn State
Derrick Walton's halfcourt buzzer-beater provided one of those GIFs that's impressive at first glance and even better upon multiple viewings. Walton's one-footed leaping release, perfect shot, and understated fist-pump celebration are all visually appealing. The real gold is in the stands, however, with the synchronized exasperated head-clutching by seemingly the entire section to the right and then, well, this:
A few things:
- Hello, Broncos jersey guy. While your reaction is stellar, I have some questions. Why are you wearing a Trindon Holliday jersey at a Nebraska basketball game that you seemingly care a great deal about? Do you not own Nebraska gear? Why do you care this much about Nebraska basketball in the first place? This seems unhealthy.
- A couple rows above Broncos Guy are two Michigan fans wearing gray who seemingly knew the whole damn time this shot was going in. While the one on the left lets his emotions get the best of him, throwing a Jersey-worthy fist pump, the dude on the right holds the pose perfectly. Nailed it, man.
- Just above the fist-pumper is a Nebraska fan staring at the aisle, planning his exit, and is blissfully unaware of everything that happens.
- The entire Nebraska bench, as well as the section in the corner, has zero reaction whatsoever. They've seen a lot of Huskers basketball. They are immune to pain.
- There are approximately 17 other hidden gems in here, including girl in blue jacket just sippin' her water, guy in button-up throwing his hands up and possibly doing a pit-check, lady whose prayers go unanswered, and the two stoic bros behind Broncos Guy.
- Late addition, pointed out by MGoCommenter Bengalfang: right as the shot goes in, you can see a kid behind the Nebraska bench throw an impressively aerodynamic paper airplane for... reasons, I guess.
Given Michigan won by one, this shot turned out to be rather important.
[Hit THE JUMP for a halfcourt alley-oop, Nik Stauskas trick shot magic, Tim Miles unveiling a... toilet, Spike Albrecht giving Andrew Dakich a hearty tweak (trust me, there's no way to describe the GIF that doesn't sound weird), and much more.]

Corporate Advocacy Program™
My argument with Bank of America (formerly MBNA) is over their Quantum Platinum Mastercard and the use of variable "Closing Dates" and billing period days. For those that do not know what I am talking about, take two statements from consecutive months. Take the later statement and you will find a "closing date". Subtract from that date the number of "Billing Period Days" and you will arrive at the prior month's closing date. What that tells you is the period of time being covered by the statement in hand. Why they set these dates to be covered only subsequently and not tell you what the future period will be is odd and a bit misleading, but that is not my argument. At any rate I have recalculated all of my statements back to June of 2008 and this has worked save one.
Rather, my argument is that on my October, 2009 statement I have a closing date of 10/5/2009. On my November, 2009 statement I have a closing date of November 2 with 30 billing period days on the statement. Take a moment and subtract 30 days from November 2nd. You come up with 10/3/2009. Please note, that in over a year of statements I have gone through this is the only time this mistake has been made by BoA. My past 4 payments (their posting date) and applicable due dates are as follows:
8/07 - $500 Due 8/24
9/9 - $500 Due 9/30
10/5 - $500 Due 11/1 (A Sunday)
11/2 - $400 Due 12/1
The problem is with the payment made 10/5. It was posted with my 9/9 payment even though it was past the due date and past what the correct 10/3 date should have been. I received a letter 11/6 dated 11/2 (not bad for a company that advises 5-7 business days from the other side of the country) stating that my rate would be moving to 26.99% from 9.99%.
Normally I'm a "deadbeat" (pay of balance each month) with a flawless history of payment since 1/97, but foolishly thought they would stick to the fixed rate when I took a $25K cash advance from them to make investments early this year which was at 0% interest until....October, 2009! (Yes I made it a specific conversation point in taking the money, no BoA will not release the tape of the 12-12-08 conversation even though it is referenced right in their statement)
At any rate, they now want loan shark interest on my remaining debt (I've made no other purchases) of $17,402.22. I'm very interested to see how they come up with finance charges on this bill going forward. Also, why can they seemingly with no rhyme or reason alternate the Billing Period Days between 29-34?
Finally, they overcharged interest (which they weren't supposed to...0% remember) on my June bill, which they credited in July....but then recharged. Also, between my July and August statements, the history doesn't "rollforward", magically .02 in their favor appeared. Easy to spot when the interest rate is 0%, but it will be much harder when they start charging a rate.
Just my note to beware. The BoA execs/crooks are nibbling on the accountants' ears to take money where they can't earn more. I'd love for it to go further, but I doubt it will.

13 years of paying the same way and this thing springs up for the first time now? There's no way, especially when the oldest time frame was 14 days. The statements all tie except this month. Yeah right. No follow through on agreements...perfect. Statements can't be mathmatically recreated. Why should they.
A couple hundred thousand dollars spent and repaid on this card and I can't even get past some front line joker making $12 an hour. Forget it then. Pulled out $25K from the bank side today to establish elsewhere. Had to laugh as I saw someone had recently tagged the signs and buildings in this very not gang infested neighborhood. Apparently I'm not alone. All my accounts will be closed as soon as activity wraps up. They won't care, but I will.

On time payments
AUTHOR: Chris - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Sunday, November 08, 2009POSTED: Sunday, November 08, 2009
Hello Ronny,
You are correct, I make the payments timely and try to pay very early because I know too well what happens if you get in their cross hairs. The quintessential problem is that my October payment was applied with my September payment on the September billing cycle and my payment made November 2nd was applied to my November statement.
When I look closer at the statements, they do not bear out this change. In fact they conflict with each other. What the credit card has essentially done is given the customer, without clarity, two time periods the cardholder must juggle. The cardholder must make their payment before the due date, but not pay before the end of their billing cycle period.
Perhaps this is legal. But this other time period is never stated until after the time period has ended. Additionally, what they have done is augment the variance between when a cycle ends and a payment is due.
But to simplify it, (it is complex because they make it that way) I made two payments. One on 10/5 and one on 11/2. I am being penalized for not making a payment in the 30 day cycle time (per statement) in between those two dates. Pick any dates you would like, you can't fit a 30 day period inside a 28 day span. One payment or the other would had to have posted during that period.
Unfortunately, I was unable to get a customer service representative to comprehend this today. She got quite nasty actually that I didn't understand. At least I got the $39 fee waived, but the real bogey of 26.99% interest is very much alive and well yet.

Court Faults Default Rate Practice <-- this link is to the details of a case against Chase Bank for Truth in Lending violations..and the customer prevailed.
As far as the inconsistency with the seemingly arbitrary number of days per billing cycle..perhaps someone can clarify that..I have no idea how they get away with that one. You would think it works as such to = 365 days or 365 divided by 12. However different months have different amounts of days so maybe that is how they determine? I think 30 days is the norm. As long as the payment is not late it shouldn't matter..it looks to me like you were making payments early so where were you late?
This is an example of billing cycles for a year with BofA..I guess you would have to ask them how they come up with this.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
In the begining, I was told that I had 3 days to cancel my investment for a full refund. After trying to do so, Nathan Elder became very loud, pushy and rude. First he claimed that he never spoke of a 3 day cancellation period. Then I brought up the fact that he told me that the conversations were recorded and that he and Rachel both did indeed tell me that there was a three day cancellation period.
After this he started backpeddling and became loud. He told me that the 3 days was only for my protection from them running my credit card and paking up and leaving town. What a load of s**t! What does that even mean? Good one Nathan, way to think and speak on your toes! Guess the scripts didn't have a reply for that one.
Anyways, he was pi**ed off and rude and was trying any way he could to make me think that I was still in this investment. Supposedly, I am now waiting for a reimburssment commitee to review my case. I am going to keep calling untill I get someone higher than Nathan to speak to.I will post again after I get a response to my email or phone calls.
To Whom It May Concern:
I just got off the phone with Nathan Elder. I tried your extension and got the voicemail so I then called Nathan in order to inform you and your company that I wanted to cancel my investment. I was told by both you and Nathan on 9/18 that I had three days to cancel for any reason for a full refund.
Today 9/20, when I spoke with Nathan and informed him of my decision to cancel he became very irritated and pushy. He insisted that there was no three day period in which to cancel. If you tape the conversations as you say you do, then there is full evidence of this discussion about the 3 day cancellation period. He also accused me of being a quitter and spoke to me in the most unprofessional way I have ever heard. He also stated that it was too late to cancel because the ball has been rolling.
What ball and what rolling? I have received no goods or services from you and I have not even talked to your advisors or coaches to set a schedule up! No forward progress has been made since 9/18!!! In all actuality, if you offer a 3 day period for full refund and cancellation is irrelevant, even though I was told there was such period, and here is why. The law states that any transaction occurring buy credit card not at the store premises has a three day right to recession.
I would also like to point out that your company has several complaints consistent with mine against it. You also have an unsatisfactory standing with the BBB of Missouri. What it all boils down to is that your company is involved in very unethical and in my opinion illegal practices. I have already begun a dispute process with my credit card company and I have my lawyer standing by. I am hoping that we won't have to take these routes to reach a resolution. Please rightfully refund my full investment of $8,200.00. Thanks.

Pipeline a moral issueJune 16,2014
There are many reasons to oppose the gas pipeline proposed for the western side of Vermont, including safety, potential threats to the lake and the use of fracked gas. But there is a larger overriding issue: that we simply must stop depending on fossil fuels. Instead, Vermont Gas is proposing, and state government is supporting, new fossil fuel infrastructure that will continue to burn fossil fuels for years to come.
Our world is heating up precipitously with disastrous results already in terms of rising seas, massive storms, prolonged droughts and increasing wildfires. For example, a recent study stated that the evidence is clear that the West Antarctic ice shelf is irreversibly melting and as a result sea levels are going to rise at least 4 feet. It is happening now, but these are just the harbingers of what is to come. The damage and devastation will be enormous.
This is not just an environmental, political or economic issue. This is a moral issue. We are making decisions today that will leave a hostile world for our children and grandchildren. Many of us, like myself, will be gone by the time the worst damage from climate change is felt. But our children and grandchildren will feel the full impact, and they will live in a world that is far different than the one we enjoy today. That is just not right.
It is immoral for us to leave this awful legacy to our children. We need to do whatever we can right now to alter the course of climate change. We can start by saying no to yet more fossil fuel infrastructure.

Team to face Man City?
no sign of henderson anywhere steer. i thought you were saying in some other posts, that he made a big impact on the chelsea game. i hear what you are saying about maxi, and think he is unlikely to start this next game. for this one i would actually bring carrol back, and have bellamy or maxi come on if it's not working out for the big man. He played very well against city last season, and for some reason i get the feeling he could give them a bit of a fright again. whenever he gets stuck on the bench for a game or two, he always seems to come back to play one good game, and then drops off again.
i would go
same back 5.
and if Gerrard is fit, bring him on as a sub at some point. unlikely to start after another layoff.
subs: doni, carra, kelly, gerrard, maxi, bellamy, kuyt
i notice you have downing playing as well as on the bench, maybe one of him is hendo?Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies

I do think Henderson what a major part of what stabilized the side after the initial Chelsea onslaught in the second half, so I thought it fair I should sing his praises, especially as most of the time I've picked Kuyt ahead of him in my own selections.
But I don't think he was a major part, or would likely have been if he'd started, of what got us the result. I think that came early on by us no allowing Chelsea to play. It was solid work by Suarez, Bellars, Kuyt and Maxi to really pressurize Chelsea high up the pitch, not let them settle and force them into poor balls out of the back. That is why I went for the same attacking 4 with the exception of switching Downing for Maxi as I think he's got an edge in pace, and more ability to last the full 90.
I did however toy with the idea of how I could play Carroll who I don't think has done anything wrong when he's been played. However I think like all the players he's got to accept his role, which ultimately is to help the team. My fear is that because the City side is so good with the ball at their feet, and has pace, that with Carroll on we may resort to long ball just to release the pressure. That is fine in the last few minutes if we've got a result (same role he had when he came on Sunday) but don't want that from the start. I'm eager to see him really get some playing time with Suarez, and get some real tasty service from Downing, Adam, Kuyt and or Henderson, but not sure the City game is the one to start experimenting on what could be, but more about using what we know we've got to try and get a result.
Downing on the bench was a typo, I cut and pasted the original and remember to put Downing on the pitch, but forgot to get him off the bench and replace him with Jordan.

You make good points Steer especially with regards to Downing and Maxi, but while I acknowledge that Downing is the better player and the one likely to cause more havoc, Maxi on the other has this ability to be at the right place at the right time and is more likely than Downing to score. With the way we have been squandering chances at home lately we do need someone with the eye and luck for goal.
Personally I would substitute Kuyt for Henderson (never thought I would ever say that), we need an extra body in midfield, with the strength of Man C, I think they may just prove too much for Lucas and Adam to deal with on their own.
