CLIPPERS AMAZING COMEBACK WIN

With 2:30 minutes left in the 3rd quarter of Game 1 in their first round playoff series with the Memphis Grizzlies, the Los Angeles Clippers were down 27 points.  Entering the fourth quarter, the Clips were down 21.

Over the last nine minutes of the game, Chris Paul, Blake Griffin and company went on a 28-3 run.  The Clippers shot 10-13 from the floor, and 4-5 from the free throw line, although the story may have been Memphis missing 11 shots (they made only one FG) and one free throw, while turning the ball over 4 times in over the same stretch.

If you missed one of the greatest comebacks in NBA history, you can watch every last point in their 4th quarter run right here on #GotEm.

‘Perpetual Ocean’ Paints the World’s Currents

It’s official. NASA has cloned Vincent Van Gogh, shot him into space, and forced him to create digital animations so that we can visualize the world’s surface ocean currents. That’s the impression I got from this video, anyway.

Actually, this visualization is a result of NASA’s ECCO2 project to study currents and sea ice.

Watch the swirling currents near the equator and the Atlantic “hurricane alley”, see the southern tip of Africa spawn eddies like bubbles in the wind, watch the ocean carve snake-like paths among the islands of the south Pacific and the combating highways along our planet’s tropical centerline. Whatever you do, watch this in 1080 on the largest damn screen you can find! And when you’re done, go watch the 20 minute version!

I think it’s very neat that the study of ocean currents is termed “bathymetry”.

PS: Would a cloned Van Gogh have both ears? If so, would he still cut one off? Nature vs. nurture, folks!

The Most Astounding Fact by Neil DeGrasse Tyson

Astrophysicist Dr. Neil DeGrasse Tyson was asked by a reader of TIME magazine, “What is the most astounding fact you can share with us about the Universe?” This is his answer. (via crookedindifference)

Beautiful.

“Yes, we are part of this universe. We are in this universe. But perhaps more important than both of those facts… is that the universe is in us.”

Northern lights over Norwegian Lapland – video

This stunning time-lapse video of the northern lights was filmed over Birtavarre in Troms, north Norway. The northern lights, or aurora borealis, are caused by electrically charged solar particles reaching Earth. The phenomenon was stronger than usual this week – even visible in the British Isles – due to a large ejection of solar particles (via guardian.co.uk)
