Economic opportunity
Markets, whether large or small, keep communities thriving. But conflicts, disasters and a lack of infrastructure can prevent people from conducting the daily transactions on which all growth and progress depend. Around the world, Mercy Corps discovers why commerce is stuck.
In some places, manufacturers need loans to purchase equipment and young people desire job skills. In others, key transportation routes to market must be rebuilt or farmers require better storage to keep their inventory fresh until sold.
Our economic development projects provide financing, equipment, training or technical support. These projects help people find jobs, build their businesses, supply their communities with the goods they need —and improve their lives.

Government borrowing will hit the debt ceiling on Monday, Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner said in a letter to Congress Wednesday.
As a result, the Treasury Department will soon start using what it calls "extraordinary measures" to prevent government borrowing from exceeding the legal limit, Geithner wrote.
On Monday, debt subject to the limit was just $95 billion below the $16.394 trillion debt ceiling.
All told, the extraordinary measures can create about $200 billion of headroom under the limit -- normally about two months worth of borrowing.
But it's unclear how much time the extraordinary measures can buy now because there are so many unanswered questions about tax and spending policies, Geithner said, referring to the lack of any resolution of the fiscal cliff.
"If left unresolved, the expiring tax provisions and automatic spending cuts, as well as the attendant delays in filing of tax returns, would have the effect of adding some additional time to the duration of the extraordinary measures," he wrote.
After the extraordinary measures run out, Treasury won't be able to pay all the country's bills in full and on time. At that point, the United States will run the very real risk that it could default on some of its obligations.
Geithner has predicted for months that the country would hit the debt ceiling by the end of December.
But Congress, first consumed with the 2012 elections and now with the fiscal cliff, has made little effort to raise the ceiling.
Now there's a good chance the debt ceiling issue won't be resolved until the 11th hour and only after an ugly fight.

Seeing the Flood Story Through an Ancient Israelite Lens
Pete Shaw highlights the story of Noah to explore how the story would have been understood in ancient times and from there he goes on to explore how we might consider it today.
Exodus, the Plagues, and the Cosmic Battle
It is obviously important to spend a lot of time discussing the scientific data. But it is also important to deal with the biblical data. Why? Because our expectations about the Bible affect how we handle the scientific data.

Series: What I Wish My Pastor Knew About... The Life of a Scientist
Andy Crouch examines the life of a scientist based on his experience of walking alongside his wife Catherine, an experimental physicist. That relationship has shown him that a life in science is a journey "into a set of virtues," of cultivating a specific character suited to the particular demands of research and investigation. Crouch's hope is to persuade pastors and others in the church to prayerfully support the scientific endeavor as a reflection of God's image in humankind as well as offers some suggestions for ministering to their needs.

"I flatter myself," Hume triumphantly proclaimed, "that I have discovered an argument . . . which, if just, will, with the wise and learned, be an everlasting check to all kinds of superstitious delusion, and consequently, will be useful as long as the world endures."
Series: Divine Action in the World
In this talk, Professor Plantinga addresses the fact that many contemporary thinkers—including many theologians—believe that God cannot perform miracles, providentially guide history, or interact in the lives of people, as these activities would be contrary to science. Plantinga, on the other hand, makes the case that this popular view is mistaken; excluding divine action in the world is not a central feature of natural science itself, but a philosophical or theological preference that has been added on to science (and can just as readily be removed). Plantinga concludes that it is completely logical to accept the miracles of the Bible and support contemporary science.
Series: The Meaning of mîn in the Hebrew Old Testament
The related ideas of the "fixity of species" and "natural kinds" have been prominent in the science and faith conversation. Some Christians take Genesis to mean that God created (bara) fixed species (mîn). But does the text truly indicate such a concept? Biblical scholar Dr. Richard Hess looks at the Biblical context and meaning of the Hebrew mîn, and suggests that when Christians use it to frame our understanding of the entire created order, we may be asking too much of this single word.
Series: But Does it Move? John Lennox on Science and the Bible
Taken from Chapter 2 of John Lennox's book Seven Days That Divide The World, this three part series looks at scripture interpretation. Lennox looks especially at the Galileo controversy regarding the movement of the Earth and why our own interpretations do not necessarily call into question the authority of the Scripture.
Series: The Genesis of Everything
Theologian, historian and Christian apologist Dr. John P. Dickson addresses the history and interpretation of Genesis 1. Making no claims about human biological origins, Dickson urges us to treat the early chapters of Genesis as a literary and historical statement, and listen carefully to it on those terms.
The Beauty of Being a Scientist and a Christian
I am a Christian. I believe that God is the ultimate reality and that the world, including me, was created by God. But this is not just an idle affirmation, a faith statement to be recited in church on Sunday.

Many people use the words "dominion" and "subdue" as "unconditional permission to use the world as they please." I came to realize, like many, that such an interpretation is contradicted by the rest of the Bible.
Series: The God Who Acts: Robert John Russell on Divine Intervention and Divine Action
Does God need to supernaturally "intervene" in order to bring about the diversity of life that we observe today? Is that kind of action different from God's ordinary action? We begin our three-part series with Robert John Russell's description of how views of divine action have changed throughout history, excerpted from his book Cosmology: From Alpha to Omega. Part 2 addresses why "intervention" in the natural world is a problem philosophically, theologically, and scientifically; and Part 3 explains Russell's own theory of divine action in the natural world.
A BioLogos Response to William Dembski, Part 1
We think that God created all living organisms, including humans, through the evolutionary process. But acceptance of creation through evolution does not mean that we reject the notion of a miracle-working God. On the contrary...
Series: Science as an Instrument of Worship
In this brief series (taken from a 2009 paper), Jennifer Wiseman uses an excerpt from the famous hymn "How Great Thou Art," to explain why the study of God's creation can lead Christ's followers into meaningful worship and overcome the obstacles which impede true praise. Creation as encountered through our senses is pondered by our minds, which flows into wonder-filled songs from the soul. She further explains how knowledge of creation will help Christians to address the moral dilemmas of science, and she encourages all to see the process of scientific inquiry as a means to discover God's truth.
Below the Surface; Behind the Scene
In this video, Alister McGrath discusses the importance of going beyond surface readings, both in Scripture and in the natural world. The parable of the sower, for example, contains a far deeper meaning than a story of a man scattering seed.
Art, Worship, Creation, and Imaginative Engagement
We should not be ashamed of the fact that our faith integrates spirit and body; our faith calls us to regard the stuff of creation in all of its materiality as good, and thus offers the best starting point for the practice and pleasure of art.
Gaining Perspective
In today's video, Michael Ramsden discusses the humility and openness we need to have before we approach Scripture.
God's Accommodation to Humans
According to Calvin, accommodation is a pedagogical tool that God employs to communicate to human beings. If God wishes to speak to us, he must bridge the gulf by descending into our world and speaking our language. In other words, God accommodates himself to our ability to comprehend.

Lifestyle & Trends - Rare Disease Day is February 28 [Infographic]
Millions of Americans will join others around the world this month in observing Rare Disease Day (February 28). They hope to help draw attention to rare diseases and the unique challenges faced by the nearly 30 million Americans affected by them. Because of the rarity of their conditions, patients are often challenged to find information, knowledgeable doctors and support for their condition. One such disease is Cryopyrin-Associated Periodic Syndromes (CAPS) – a serious, lifelong autoinflammatory disease that affects about one in one million people in the United States. Because there are so few CAPS patients, online resources play an important role in uniting the community. CAPSConnectsUs.com, a new educational website from Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation, enables CAPS patients in the United States to connect online to share their stories, encouragement and advice about managing daily challenges.

Time to put an end to Big Oil subsidies
Both are making record profits yet only the farmers appear ready to help save the country some money and forego subsidies for their crops.
The oil business? Not so much.
"In the current dynamic, we can't take anything for granted," the American Petroleum Institute's Marty Durbin told the Houston Chronicle. "Given the strong desire for new members of Congress to want to show they are really doing something on cost-cutting and deficit reduction, you never know what could get thrown in the mix."
That was last year, and Durbin had nothing to worry about. Efforts to kill oil subsidies got nowhere in 2011 and are unlikely to succeed in an election year. This despite soaring oil company profits.
Even more exasperating, though certainly not a bit surprising, is the fact that too many members of Congress are just fine with oil company subsidies and would apparently prefer to cut benefits to the sick or elderly than trim corporate welfare programs.
Earlier this month, the Obama administration proposed cutting

My daughter loves them and they look great. For size comparison: We bought these in a big kid 16 -- She just grew out of her Old Navy size 14 jeans and can wear a size 4 or 6 adult in A&F stretchy jeans (those things run small it seems). She wore these at an amusement park all day with no chafing or other problems. Great for gym class.

My daughter has been asking for a pair of running shorts since I recently started wearing them so often. I tried to find a kids version of the Adidas Marathon shorts, which I love so much but didn't have any luck. But she was very happy with these shorts. They are a good length and have the built-in brief, which she likes. She is between a size 10 and 12 and the medium fit her very well. She will be able to wear them for a while.

My daughter lives in these shorts in the summer. They are comfotable, light, and quick-drying. The fit is true to size with an adjustable drawstring waist, which works well for my extremely slender girl. I love that there are so many color choices.

Two Storm-Related Deaths, 308,000 Without Power
There are 308,000 Maryland residents without power and there have been two storm-related deaths.
Editor's note: A death that the state originally attributed to Hurricane Sandy has been retracted and was not hurricane-related.
Hurricane Sandy claimed the lives of two Maryland residents and 308,000 were still without power as of 11:15 a.m. Tuesday.
A large tree fell on the home of a Pasadena man and killed him Monday night.
The first storm-related death was in an automobile accident Monday morning in Montgomery County.
State officials originally connected a third death in Prince George's County with the storm, but county officials are no longer linking the death to the storm. A man changing a tire beneath an SUV was killed when the jack slipped, officials said.
Secretary of the Maryland Department of Health and Mental Hygiene Joshua Sharfstein said the two deaths cannot be definitively labeled storm-related until chief medical examiner's office performs autopsies on the bodies.
O'Malley said he was relieved that Maryland prepared for the worst but did not endure it.
"We were very fortunate to be on the kinder end of this very violent storm," he said.
The heavy winds left sooner than anyone predicted, and utility crews were able to get out to restore power at dawn Tuesday, O'Malley said.
He cautioned drivers to stay off the roads today since there is debris in many roads, but if they do drive around, to remember to treat traffic lights without power as four-way stops.
There were some evacuations in Havre De Grace, where another high tide is expected at 11 p.m. Tuesday. In Crisfield, officials were going door-to-door to evacuate homeowners experiencing flooding, O'Malley said.
In Howard County, an outage at a wastewater treatment plant caused overflow to spill into Little Patuxent River in Savage. About 90 percent of the discharge is storm water and 10 percent is sewage, O'Malley said.
The state is monitoring flooding issues, which the governor said could last several days, and the flow of the Conowingo Dam into the Susquehanna River.

Nice to see a well coordinated, proactive government response to this storm verses the laid-back, worry-about-it-afterwards mentality (yer doin a fine job, brownie). Resources and assets established and placed ahead of time, citizens kept informed continuously, good, professional actions from our public servants. Whine all you want about "gubmint", this is indicative of a well-established society.

Government has done almost nothing. You want to thank someone for their hard work during adverse conditions and proper planning, thank businesses who stocked plenty of water, food and supples, as well as the hard work of BGE. Government is a joke.

Britain's Prince William and Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, are expecting their first child after 19 months of marriage, the palace announced Monday.
The royal revelation, which followed months of tabloid speculation, came as Catherine was admitted to a central London hospital with acute morning sickness Monday afternoon. She is expected to be in King Edward VII Hospital for several days, the palace said.
The palace said her illness is hyperemesis gravidarum, which involves nausea and vomiting more severe than typical morning sickness.
Prince William spent much of Monday with his wife at the hospital, the palace said, but he was seen leaving Monday evening.
"As the pregnancy is in its very early stages, Her Royal Highness is expected to stay in hospital for several days and will require a period of rest thereafter," the statement said.
Catherine, 30, is not yet 12 weeks pregnant, Clarence House told CNN, so the palace is not announcing a due date for the child.
William and Catherine's child will be next in line to the British throne after William, regardless of whether it is a boy or a girl, the British Cabinet Office said Monday. Planned changes to the law of succession that end the tradition of a boy jumping over an elder sister are already de facto in effect, the Cabinet Office said.
William and Catherine were married at Westminster Abbey on April 29, 2011, in London's biggest royal wedding in three decades.
The baby would be the first grandchild for the heir to the British throne, Prince Charles, and the late Diana, Princess of Wales.
The news immediately became a top trending topic worldwide on Twitter.

Upright Buckets Provide Clean, Trouble-Free Conveying
To prevent product spills, Varilift conveyors have buckets that remain upright after dumping. This eliminates downtime caused by jamming and bucket breakage because buckets overlap only at the infeed area.
Upright buckets permit jam-free bottom discharge from any point under a horizontal run. Optional multiple infeed and discharge points allow you to receive or deliver product to more than one location. "S", "C" or horizontal configurations are available for conveying or product accumulation.
Rugged one-piece polypropylene buckets can be removed by hand for easy cleaning. Optional pivoting Tip-To-Clean buckets and clean-in-place sprays also facilitate sanitation. Modular construction allows Varilift to be reconfigured or expanded to suit changes in production line layout.

Snapper, Yellowtail – US
Yellowtail Snapper are found in the Atlantic from New England to southeastern Brazil, although they are most common in tropical regions like the Bahamas, Florida and the Caribbean. They are a fast growing species that reaches sexual maturity at a young age and can produce many eggs.
The abundance of Yellowtail Snapper in the Caribbean is unknown, but it is considered healthy in the US South Atlantic. Yellowtail Snappers support commercial fisheries off the southeastern United States, Cuba and the Caribbean.
The primary gear Used to catch Yellowtail Snapper is hook-and-line gear, which has a very low impact on the seafloor and catches moderate levels of bycatch.
This fish may have high levels of mercury that could pose a health risk to adults and children. More mercury info here.

WOODLAND HILLS, Calif., March 15, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- This afternoon, MPTF (Motion Picture and Television Fund) and the union representing certain of its employees, SEIU-UHW, jointly announced a 60-day cooling-off period during which time the two organizations will continue to negotiate in good faith toward a collective bargaining agreement. The announcement was made by Bob Beitcher, MPTF CEO, and Dave Regan, President of SEIU-UHW.
"I'm pleased we were able to reach this time out," said Bob Beitcher, MPTF CEO. "After speaking at length with Dave, I feel more optimistic that the two sides can figure a way to reach a mutually satisfactory conclusion," Beitcher continued.
"I am confident that we can reach an agreement that will continue to make MPTF a great place to receive and deliver care," Regan said.
SEIU-UHW has rescinded its intent to strike at MPTF for 3 days starting the evening of Monday, March 18th. Both parties have also agreed to withdraw their Unfair Labor Practice claims at this time. SEIU-UHW has also chosen to withdraw its bargaining proposal regarding Nurse Staffing levels.

Mother Earth News has an interesting and strightforward article on composting. Per the article "Composting mimics and intensifies nature's recycling plan. A compost pile starts out as a diverse pile of kitchen and garden "waste." Left alone, any of these materials would eventually decompose. But when a variety of materials are mixed together and kept moist and aerated, the process accelerates. Compost matures into what soil scientists call active organic matter: a dark, crumbly soil amendment that's rich with beneficial fungi, bacteria and earthworms, as well as the enzymes and acids these life-forms release as they multiply."
"Adding compost to garden soil increases its water-holding capacity, invigorates the soil food web and provides a buffet of plant nutrients. Compost also contains substances that enhance plants' ability to respond to challenges from insects and diseases."
The article cleared up many misconceptions I had about composting - laying out the information in the following 10 facts.
1. Balancing ingredients is optional.
2. Good compost can be either hot or cold.
3. Small or large - any size pile will work just fine.
4. Turning compost is optional.
5. You can gauge the moisture level of your compost pile by its fragrance.
6. Compost need not be a secret.
7. You can compost diseased or weedy plants.
8. With a worm bin, you can even compost indoors.
9. You can safely compost livestock manure.
10. There are good uses for immature compost.

Flourish Planters & Grow Systems are the ideal way to grow healthy, delicious vegetables and herbs year-round. Flourish Planters & Grow Systems are prized by both beginning and expert gardeners for ease of use, virtually weed-free gardening and the ability to grow an abundance of vegetables in a compact space.
The national media is picking up on the container gardening trend. Yahoo's "This Could Be Big" is featuring this article about growing salad greens in a window box. The article includes a fun video. Here's the link.
First pass under a rumbling elevated subway and then walk up five flights of stairs, there you'll find a bounty of fresh fruits and vegetables growing in an apartment window. Chives, red leaf lettuce, sage, basil, even strawberries, all growing above each other and next to each other like Hollywood squares.
A Windowfarm is a vertical hydroponic farm that's set up in a window and can grow certain fruits, vegetables and herbs year round based on the season, even in winter. To feed the plants, a clear plastic tube is connected to a pump on a timer that circulates a nutrient rich solution directly to your plants root systems.

Customer Ratings & Reviews
Wheeled Snow Shovel 4 4
arrived incomplete! I had to return this back to skymall because the box it arrived in had 2 big holes and pieces of the showel were missing... I found some in my driveway but still was incomplete. BAD QUALITY!!! January 30, 2013
Looked used This was a gift for my brother. I was so embarrassed when he called me to ask if I bought it from a thrift store. He said it was missing screws and had scratches on it. He returned it did not want a replacement. I felt so bad because I hardly ever buy him anything and the first time I do it was a disaster. My expectations were not met. January 24, 2013
broke immediately I was very excited about this product because I cannot use one arm and I wanted to be able to shovel my own walks without using a snow blower. The shovel arrived in a small package and required assembly. The wheels were hard to secure and had small pins to lock them onto the axle. The shovel worked well in 3 inches of light powder for 20 yards, when the wheel popped off and the pin flew away, never to be recovered. The shovel is a great idea but the actual product was ruined by lousy engineering and cheap manufacture. I want my money back. January 13, 2013
Disappointed I purchased this for a gift for someone who has everything. The shovel was really sturdy and we thought it would work well in the snow but my dad ended up sending it back. It was a great idea but disappointing. January 9, 2013

EDMONTON - A proposed four-year deal between the government and Alberta teachers holds the promise of labour peace in other major contract negotiations, says Alberta's premier.
Alison Redford said Friday she now has "even more confidence" the tentative deal announced Friday with teachers will pave the way for other labour deals.
"What we're doing right now is really redefining the way government and the public sector needs to work together to deliver services to Albertans," Redford said. "I hope it's precedent setting and we will keep our fingers crossed and see if others come to the table with the same spirit."
The government has been locked in difficult negotiations with the Alberta Medical Association, which represents doctors who haven't had a contract for about two years. Alberta's nurses are set to begin negotiations later this spring.
Redford said she is happy the deal with teachers offers stability for children, their parents and teachers. It shows there is room for movement on issues that initially appear to be roadblocks, she said.
"I think today is evidence of the fact there are still lots of opportunities for movement, for collaboration and we certainly want to make sure that we're providing every opportunity for people to come to the table so that we can address their concerns," Redford said. "But fundamentally, when we sit down we are sticking to the fact that what we want to do as a government, and what we got elected to do, is bring change to the way services are delivered, which is good for the people receiving the services and delivering the services."
The tentative deal announced in Calgary Friday morning between the province and Alberta Teachers' Association freezes teacher salaries for three years, followed in 2015 by a two-per-cent increase and one-time, lump-sum payment worth about $40 million.
Teachers won a sought-after "comfort letter," a commitment from the government not to change legislation that alters ATA powers or teachers' collective bargaining rights for the length of the agreement.
The government also agreed to review teachers' workload as part of the deal that covers about 40,000 teachers and comes after two years of rocky negotiations.
Alberta Education will do its own review and fund an independent study to see how teacher workloads can be adjusted to improve students' education, the provincial government and the ATA announced Friday. Alberta's 62 school boards would have to carry out similar reviews.
The deal would guarantee four years of labour peace for Alberta's 600,000 students, the government said. The ATA is recommending teachers approve the proposal that resolves major issues provincewide such as salaries and workload. Local issues must still be bargained at the school board level.
School boards were not involved in the talks that produced the latest deal, said Alberta School Boards Association president Jacquie Hansen. Board representatives will meet Monday to discuss the proposal, she said.
The government's promise not to change legislation affecting teachers worries the ASBA, Hansen said. "By freezing legislation about their work, it makes me wonder how Alberta's education system can grow and improve."
The deal includes a government commitment to limit teachers' working hours, which will be a "major adjustment" for some school districts, particularly in rural areas, Hansen said.
"With teachers working fewer hours, how do we sustain the current levels of service to students? We'll need to hire more teachers. There's a cost implication there. How do rural school boards deal with that? To hire more teachers, it takes more dollars and we're against the backdrop of a budget that's extraordinarily tight."
Edmonton Public Schools is analyzing the implications of the proposed teachers' deal coupled with the cuts to education grants the provincial budget delivered last week, said Edmonton public school board chairwoman Sarah Hoffman.
"At first blush, we have grave concerns," Hoffman said. "The agreement seems to have a negative impact on our staff, our students and the services that we provide. Next week, we will have time to analyze the proposal in more detail and will be in a better position to comment more fully on some of the implications."
Edmonton Catholic Schools is pleased the deal provides labour peace for four years and gives the school district clear information it can use during local budgeting and teacher negotiations, said Catholic school board chair Becky Kallal. "For us, knowing is better than not knowing. We have a good grasp of the parameters set out in this deal now. This agreement is virtually the same, in terms of money, as the one that was tabled in February."
Education Minister Jeff Johnson said at the Calgary announcement he understands some school boards might be frustrated or concerned with how the deal came about.
"One of the challenges with the process we have is it's impossible to take this out to 62 boards at the same time," Johnson said. "What we've put forward is substantively the same as what was put forward Feb. 20th to the boards, which they've had a lot of time to digest."
The province will cover the cost of salary increases in the fourth year, along with the lump-sum payment, Johnson said. But school boards will have to find ways to cover the cost of parts of the deal that relate to workload through their existing budgets.
"It may add costs," Johnson said. "Boards will have to deal with that as they see fit."
Key to teachers are provisions in this deal that relate to workload.
Johnson said the government wants to make sure teachers have time to prepare for being in front of students. "We're limiting the amount of hours they can be asked to do instruction to free up time for other things," Johnson said. "There have been thresholds set in this agreement that school boards will work toward over the next four years to make sure we have a standard practice across the province with respect to instructional hours."
As a compromise to recognize concerns of remote and rural schools, some schools will be allowed to ask to be exempt from those thresholds.
ATA president Carol Henderson said the latest deal is different from previous incarnations because it offers stability for teachers until the agreement expires in August 2013. The new deal also begins to tackle teachers' workload issues, she said.
"We know from our work-life balance study that teachers are working long hours, 56 is the average," said Henderson. "We knew that we can't sustain that. It had to be addressed. I believe this offer will get us to really seriously looking at the expectations of the workload for teachers."
NDP education critic David Eggen said he hopes the Redford government has learned lessons they will apply to other ongoing labour negotiations.
"Hopefully the government doesn't play games with them like they did with the teachers because this whole thing could have been settled probably four or five months ago in much better faith and much more productively," Eggen said.
"Instead it turned into this confrontation, eleventh hour, high noon kind of thing," he said of the prolonged teacher negotiations. "Other public servants — doctors and so forth — they don't need that kind of cowboy attitude when they're trying to negotiate something that's best for Albertans ultimately."

Believe by Kristian Alfonso
Hope Faith Miracles was a long awaited dream for Kristian Alfonso, who plays Hope Brady on the hit NBC soap "Days of our Lives." For years, Kristian had received letters, emails and calls to NBC asking about the jewellery that she was wearing that particular day. One day she was shopping with her sister, Lisa and was approached by a woman on the street who asked, "Where can I get your jewellery?" Kristian's response was that she had that particular piece made in Italy and that it was not a piece that was offered in any store.
It was at that time when her sister turned to her and said, "Are you convinced that everyone loves your jewellery designs?" It was then when Kristian made the decision to enter the world of jewellery design.
For years, award-winning actress Kristian Alfonso received letters, emails and calls asking about the jewellery she wore on the hit show 'Days of our Lives'. Inspired by the response, Kristian entered the world of jewellery design. Her newest collection, 'Believe', consists of intriguing pieces made from genuine diamonds and gemstones.
The name Hope Faith Miracles is derived from Kristian's love of the fleur de lies. At an early age, Kristian's elegant mom, Joanne had introduced her to what has over the years become her trademark.

Forgive anyone who suggests that Marco Fatuzzo sometimes keeps his head in the clouds.
The affable physics professor might well agree. After all, his area of expertise is theoretical astrophysics. "In a broad sense," he says, "it means using physics and applying it to what processes occur in space-how stars live and die, that sort of thing."

A night after tying an NBA record by connecting on 23 3-pointers, the Rockets finished 9 for 25 from beyond the arc.
Miami played without Chris Bosh, who missed the game with the flu. Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said he hoped Bosh would be well enough to play Friday when Miami hosts the Los Angeles Clippers.
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Danny Green hit eight 3-pointers and scored a career-high 28 points to help San Antonio win its 11th straight game.

THUNDER 119, WARRIORS 98 Continued...
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Kevin Durant scored 25 points, Russell Westbrook added 22 and Oklahoma City won consecutive games for the first time in nearly three weeks.
Playing on the second night of a back-to-back, the Warriors didn't get settled in Oklahoma City until almost daybreak and it showed in the early going. The Thunder finally put it away with a 16-4 run to start the fourth quarter that featured 10 points from sixth man Kevin Martin.
That allowed coach Scott Brooks to go without Durant or Westbrook in the fourth quarter for the second straight game.
Harrison Barnes and Klay Thompson had 19 points apiece for the Warriors. Golden State played without Andrew Bogut, who is still easing his way back from a left ankle injury, and Jarrett Jack was sidelined by a right shoulder contusion.
DALLAS (AP) — O.J. Mayo scored 28 points, Vince Carter hit a critical jumper in the final minute and Dallas gave coach Rick Carlisle his 500th career victory.
Mayo had 20 in the first half and was mostly quiet before getting two important baskets with Portland trying to rally late in the fourth quarter.
Carter put Dallas ahead 99-94 with a jumper just inside the 3-point line with the shot clock winding down.

New York never got closer than 97-92 with 2:57 to play and the Wizards pulled away at the end.
Martel Webster added 19 for Washington, which has won just 13 games, but has beaten five of the six NBA division leaders.
Carmelo Anthony led the Knicks with 31 points. Amare Stoudemire scored 19 and Raymond Felton had 17.
ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — Eric Bledsoe had 27 points, including 19 in the second half, and Los Angeles used a big third quarter to snap a three-game losing streak.
The Clippers won despite playing without their three top scorers in All-Stars Chris Paul and Blake Griffin, and Jamal Crawford. Paul remains sidelined with a bruised right kneecap and Griffin sat with a strained hamstring. Crawford was out with a sore right shoulder.
Jameer Nelson scored 18 points to lead the Magic and Nikola Vucevic added 15 points and 13 rebounds. Continued...
TORONTO (AP) — Kevin Garnett scored a season-high 27 points with 10 rebounds, Paul Pierce had 12 points and 11 rebounds, and Boston won its fifth straight game.
Courtney Lee added 15 points, Leandro Barbosa had 14, Avery Bradley 11 and Brandon Bass 10 as the Celtics remained unbeaten since losing guard Rajon Rondo to a season-ending knee injury.
Garnett scored 11 points in the fourth quarter as the Celtics rallied from a 10-point deficit to snap a two-game skid in Toronto. Boston had lost three of its last four in Canada.
The victory also ended a three-game road losing streak for the Celtics, who had dropped 11 of 14 away from home.
Andrea Bargnani returned after missing 26 games with a torn ligament in his right elbow to score 13 points for Toronto, while DeMar DeRozan also had 13, making 5 of 16 field goal attempts.
CLEVELAND (AP) — Kyrie Irving scored 22 points in just three quarters, rookie Dion Waiters added 19 and Cleveland didn't overlook a team with a worse record than its own.
The Cavaliers were coming off a stunning upset of Oklahoma City, one of the league's best teams. It would have been easy to take the lowly Bobcats (11-37) for granted, but Cleveland came out energized from the start, built a 33-point lead after three quarters and sent Charlotte to its 11th loss in 13 games.
Tristan Thompson scored 17 for the young-and-improving Cavs, who are 8-9 since Jan. 1.
Byron Mullens scored 15 to pace Charlotte. Bobcats leading scorer Kemba Walker, averaging 17.8 points per game, had just five on 2-of-11 shooting.
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Roy Hibbert had 16 points and 13 rebounds to lead Central Division-leading Indiana to its third victory in three nights.
The Pacers showed no signs of weariness despite being the only team to play back-to-back-to-back games this season.
Paul George, George Hill and David West each scored 15 for the Pacers.

Memphis missed its first 13 shots from the field in the third before Randolph hit a 22-footer at the 6:26 mark, but the Grizzlies trailed by 19 and never recovered.
NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Greivis Vasquez scored 19 points, Al-Farouq Aminu added 16, and New Orleans snapped a four-game losing streak.
Vasquez, who scored 15 points in the first half, was 8 of 9 from the field and had 12 assists in his 19th double-double of the season.
Ryan Anderson added 14 points and Robin Lopez 11 for the Hornets, who were making a rare appearance in New Orleans Arena. Because of the Super Bowl this past week, the Hornets were playing only their second home game in the past eight and fourth in the past 13.
Marcin Gortat and Jared Dudley each scored 14 points for the Suns, who came in off a win at Memphis on Tuesday night.
SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Paul Millsap and Al Jefferson each scored 19 points, Enes Kanter had 17 and a career-high five blocks, and Utah dominated inside to earn the victory.
Kanter went 5 of 5 with five rebounds and a block during the second quarter when the Jazz took control after trailing by 12 in the first.
Utah was able to control inside despite being without the NBA's leading shot blocker, Larry Sanders, because of a back injury. The Jazz held a 31-10 advantage on second-chance points and a 56-36 edge on points in the paint.
Jefferson and Derrick Favors led Utah with 11 rebounds apiece, and the Jazz had a 50-37 advantage on the boards.
Brandon Jennings and Ersan Ilyasova led Milwaukee with 17 points apiece.

Still only 25-years-old and yet already approaching veteran status at the elite level, Vitaly Fridzon is preparing to play at his fourth consecutive EuroBasket tournament. He brings Russia some options on offence since he is a versatile player who will unload from downtown, or use his speed and agility to put the ball on the floor whenever he sees a gap which offers an opportunity to penetrate. Crucially, he is also an excellent team player and often keeps things very simple, whether it is just making smart decisions or merely playing his part by helping to move the ball. Defensively meanwhile he is an asset although he can be a bit too aggressive. Fridzon has played at the Olympics and World Championships and is a regular contributor in Euroleague at club level. A bit of a late bloomer he won gold at U20 level with Russia and was top scorer though he was not always involved at the younger age groups.

RACINE, Ohio — The Tornadoes controlled the boards Tuesday night en route to a 60-44 victory over South Gallia.
The Purple and Gold pulled down 36 rebounds, 15 more than the Rebels, to take their sixth Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division victory and their fifth victory in Carles W. Hayman Gymnasium.
Southern (8-7, 6-5 TVC Hocking) out rebounded SGHS (5-11, 3-8) 12-to-4 in the opening stanza, which allowed the hosts to jump out to a 13-7 lead. The Rebels rallied back in the second period with an 11-to-8 run that cut the SHS lead to three points at halftime.
The Tornadoes hot shooting allowed them to expand their lead to five points headed into the finale, despite committing seven turnovers in the third period. The Red and Gold had the best offensive period in the fourth, scoring 14 points. Unfortunately for the Rebels, Southern also had its best quarter of the night in the fourth, amassing 25 points to seal off the 60-44 victory.
Sophomore guard Tristen Wolfe led the way for the Tornadoes with 23 points on 10-of-13 (76.9 percent) from the field and 3-of-3 from the free throw line. Casey Pickens marked 12 points in the triumph, while Dennis Teaford had seven points. Adam Pape and Taylor McNickle each added six points, while Bradley McCoy, Trenton Deem and Zac Beegle each finished with two points, rounding out the SHS scoring.
Both Wolfe and Pickens finished one rebound shy of a double-double, with nine each. Pape finished with a team-high four assists, followed by Wolfe and Deem with three each. Wolfe had two steals on the night to lead the Tornadoes, while Teaford, McNickle and Wolfe accounted of Southern's three rejections.
Southern shot 9-of-13 (69.2 percent) from the free throw line and 24-of-51 (47.1 percent) from the field including just 2-of-9 (22.2 percent) from beyond the arc. Pape and Pickens accounted for the two SHS three-pointers. As a unit the Tornadoes had 36 rebounds, 12 assists, seven steals, and 23 turnovers.
Brayden Greer paced the SGHS offense with 12 points, followed by Michael Wheeler with nine. Gus Slone chipped in with six points, Ethan Swain added five, C.J. Johnston marked four and Kody Lambert added three. Alex Stapleton notched two points, while Landon Hutchinson and Tyler Reynolds rounded out the SGHS scoring with one point each.
Wheeler and Greer led South Gallia with five rebounds each, while Swain had the lone blocked shot. Greer led SGHS with eight assists and six steals on the night.
The Rebels shot 7-of-15 (46.7 percent) from the charity stripe and 16-of-51 (31.4 percent) from the field including 4-of-21 (19 percent) from three. Greer accounted for two of the Rebels three-pointers, while Lambert and Swain had the others. SGHS as a team had 21 rebounds, 11 assists, 12 steals and 20 turnovers.
With the loss South Gallia falls to 2-7 away from Mercerville including 0-6 in TVC Hocking games.
Southern completes the sweep of SGHS, as the Tornadoes were also victorious on December 7th by a count of 43-38 in Gallia County. This is the second straight year SHS has swept the Rebels.
