The Tarantula Nebula, C103 (lower right) // Pratastrocat

Zoomed out, the Tarantula Nebula dominates the view of the Large Magellanic Cloud. Rich in gas and dust, the LMC is currently undergoing vigorous star formation. American astronomer Robert Burnham Jr. (1931-1993) calls the LMC an "astronomical treasure-house, a great celestial laboratory for the study of the growth and evolution of the stars."

Tarantula Nebula

NGC 2070 in Dorado Caldwell 103 If any astronomical object truly inspires me, it is the Tarantula Nebula. It appears as a large emission nebula in our telescopes – yet it’s far away in a satellite galaxy 160,000 light years away, the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). Continue reading Tarantula Nebula

Goga Bitadze ejected after Kristaps Porzingis altercation in Magic win

A game between the Celtics and Magic turned physical in the fourth quarter Monday night, prompting Goga Bitadze to be ejected from Amway Arena. The incident occurred with 3:36 left in the fourth quarter with the Magic holding a 103-93 lead. A dead ball resulted after Kentavious Caldwell-Pope was fouled following a 3-point attempt by Derrick White. Kristaps Porzingis and Jalen Suggs were booing…

Washington Wizards Move Aaron Holiday to Phoenix Suns

On February 10th, 2022, the Washington Wizards traded guard Aaron Holiday to the Phoenix Suns for cash considerations. The Wizards also received a trade exception.

Aaron Holiday became a member of the Washington Wizards when he was included in a five-team blockbuster trade where he was sent from the Indiana Pacers. The humongous deal also saw the Wizards add Kyle Kuzma, Montrezl Harrell and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope from the Los Angeles Lakers and Spencer Dinwiddie from the Brooklyn Nets.

The Wizards also came into the 2021-22 season with a new head coach in Wes Unseld Jr. Washington went 10-3 in its first 13 games. However, the season soon headed south.

The Wizards fell to 15-15 after a 5-12 stretch. After getting to 23-21, a 1-8 moment dropped the club to 24-29. By the trade deadline, Washington went for a makeover. Davis Bertans and Dinwiddie were traded to the Dallas Mavericks for Kristaps Porzingis and Harrell was dealt to the Charlotte Hornets for Ish Smith, Vernon Carey Jr. and a second round pick.

Holiday was the final piece moved. He spent his first season in Washington in and out of the rotation. Overall, the guard appeared in 41 games (14 starts) and compiled 6.1 PPG, 1.6 RPG, 1.9 APG and 0.6 SPG in 16.2 MPG.

After the trade, Holiday assumed a backup role in Phoenix. The Suns went 19-8 after the trade deadline, finishing the 2021-22 season with an NBA-best 64-18 record. Holiday averaged 6.8 PPG, 2.5 RPG, 3.4 APG and 0.8 SPG in 16.3 MPG through 22 games.

In the playoffs, Phoenix was the first seed and faced the 36-46 New Orleans Pelicans in the first round. The opener saw Phoenix jump out to a 19-point lead at halftime. Though the Pelicans cut into the deficit in the second half, the Suns held on for a 110-99 win.

The second game was close, but New Orleans hit 17 threes and outscored Phoenix 69-53 in the second half to win 125-114. In the game, Suns star Devin Booker injured his right hamstring and would miss several games.

In Game Three, the Suns led by double digits at halftime and held a 66-53 advantage in the third quarter. The Pelicans stormed back and the rest of the contest was tight.

With the game tied with 6:49 left in the fourth quarter, Chris Paul took over. The veteran point guard scored 14 of his 28 total points during the rest of the game as Phoenix won 114-111. The fourth game saw Brandon Ingram record 30 points and Jonas Jonas Valančiūnas put up 26 points and 15 rebounds as the Pelicans won 118-103.

In Game Five, Suns forward Mikal Bridges got hot early and he finished with 31 points in a 112-97 Suns win. Booker returned for Game Six. The Pelicans led at halftime by 10 points but the Suns used a 12-5 close in the final two minutes to win 115-109 and close out the series 4-2.

Holiday played in two games and eight minutes and 14 seconds in the first round. The guard averaged 5.0 PPG and 2.0 APG in the series.

The Suns advanced to the second round where they matched up with the Dallas Mavericks and star Luka Dončić. The Suns built a 17-point lead after three quarters and withstood 45 points from Dončić in a 121-114 win.

The Suns took a 2-0 series lead after Booker and Paul combined for 58 points in a 129-109 rout. Game Three featured Dončić scoring 26 points and guard Jalen Brunson put up 28 points as Dallas won at home 103-94. The Mavericks tied the series 2-2 after a 111-101 Game Four victory.

In Game Five, Phoenix outscored Dallas 61-34 in the second half of a 110-80 blowout win. Dallas responded with a 113-86 rout in Game Six. The Mavericks never trailed in Game Seven, leading by 30 at halftime and by as much as 46 in a stunning 123-90 game.

The Suns lost and were eliminated in the second round. Holiday appeared in four semifinal games, managing 2.8 PPG and 1.3 APG in 2.9 MPG

In the offseason, Holiday became an unrestricted free agent after Phoenix decided not to tender the guard a $5.8 million qualifying offer. Holiday signed a one-year contract with the Atlanta Hawks for the veteran's minimum.

Aaron Holiday on how the trade is great in terms of location (via Arizona Republic):

"Man, it's probably one of the best things. My parents are like a 45-minute flight away now, so they could probably visit us more often. They can honestly drive if they want to. I have family here in Phoenix, my brother is now in Sacramento."

On joining the Suns:

"I was up here watching them play the [Milwaukee] Bucks last year. The atmosphere is crazy. The team is obviously really good, really talented. They were number one in the league without me, so hopefully I can keep that going. I'm just here to do my job and help the best way I can."

How he's already acclimated to Phoenix:

"Man, I'm already acclimated. I'm from the West Coast. This (Phoenix) weather is nice, reminds me of back home. It's not too hot right now."

Suns forward and new acquisition Torrey Craig on Holiday (via Arizona Republic):

"He's a defensive-minded guy. He plays like a vet as well. Plays at a good pace, and I think he'll fit in perfect with this group and what we're trying to accomplish here."

Ejecutó una estadística surrealista: 32+16+16+5. Ningún jugador en la historia de la Liga había alcanzado los números del jugador de Sombor en la victoria (103-119) en la Bahía de San Francisco EUGENIO MUÑOZ FERNÁNDEZ Lo extraordinario sigue siendo la norma para el MVP de las últimas finales y campeón de la NBA, Nikola Jokic. Parece repetido en el tiempo, pero el de Sombor sigue logrando números que nadie más tiene en la historia de la liga. Dinamitó el partido entre los dos últimos campeones de la Liga, la victoria de los Denver Nuggets en la cancha de los Golden State Warriors (103-119). Con 32 puntos (13/24 TC, 2/6 T3), 16 rebotes, 16 asistencias y 5 robos de balón. Es muy difícil imaginar que alguien no llamado Luka Doncic pueda competir por ser mejor jugador, en la actualidad. Jokic, en el partido.LAPRESSE No fue un partido cómodo para los Nuggets, siempre remando ante unos Warriors a los que ha sentado de 10 el cambio de año. Al descanso, por ejemplo, se marcharon empatados (61-61, 24') pero fue tras un 0-11 de Denver. El primer acelerón tras el descanso, orquestado por Jokic, con un gancho y una entrada, tuvo respuesta en Curry. Con lo que la victoria no se decidió hasta el último periodo. "Poco puedes hacer..." Allí, el serbio volvió a tomar la batuta. Robó una bola clave y se la dejó a Naji, construyó otra jugada para el triple de Caldwell-Pope y definió con un triple. Puso el broche con dos grandes acciones en la pintura y un rebote ofensivo con canasta. Otro día en la oficina, tanto en ataque como en defensa. "Es increíble, nos dominó completamente", señaló Steve Kerr, técnico de los Warriors. No dudó en llenar de elogios al de Sombor y puntualizó algo que no se valora tanto en el '15'. Su defensa: ejemplificada con 4 robos y un tapón. "Nos alejó, una y otra vez. Son los campeones por una razón. Controlan el partido, fue una noche dura para todos", agregó. "Es una fuerza demasiado dominante. Es tan inteligente en defensa, sabe anticipar, lee a la perfección como a dos minutos le llega un pase cerca, roba y puede soltar el balón para Gordon", explicó. Y terminó incluso resignado: "Ha dado 16 asistencias, poco puedes hacer". Jokic busca dar un pase.LAPRESSE [Jokic] Ha dado 16 asistencias, poco puedes hacer... Steve Kerr En la historia Y aunque quizá no sean los Warriors 'de siempre' (29 victorias y 27 derrotas), es otra prueba del nivel de los Denver Nuggets (39-19, 3º de Oeste a un triunfo de Timberwolves y Thunder). Jokic está en números históricos y si nadie había conseguido un partido así con robos, si solo se ciñe al triple-doble tiene tres con más de 30 puntos, 15 rebotes y 15 asistencias. Solo uno más en la historia de la NBA los hace: Oscar Robertson, mito del blanco y negro, con 11. Jokic tiene tres. Seguirá tomando por asalto la NBA. Su media en la última semana de competición de 27,3+16,7+15 sumando 2,3 robos y 68,6% de efectividad en el tiro le hacen el jugador más en forma del planeta. Lo extraordinario es norma para un Jokic brutal. Los Warriors son testigo.

NGC 2070 (also known as Caldwell 103) is a large open cluster and candidate super star cluster forming the heart of the bright region in the centre-south-east of the Large Magellanic Cloud.[2] It is at the centre of the Tarantula Nebula and produces most of the energy that makes the latter's gas and dust visible. Its central condensation is the star cluster R136, one of the most energetic star clusters known.[3] Among its stars are many of great dimension, including the second most massive star known, R136a1, at 215 M☉ and 6.16 million L☉.

The Tarantula Nebula, C103 // Brian Boyle

The Tarantula Nebula is one of the largest and brightest star-forming regions in our slice of the local universe. It has a diameter of about 1,200 light years and is so bright that, if placed at the distance the Orion Nebula (M42) is at, it would cast visible shadows on Earth.

Inside the Tarantula Nebula, massive stars are carving deep cavities in the surrounding material by unleashing a torrent of ultraviolet light, which is winnowing away at the enveloping hydrogen gas cloud in which the stars were born. When this UV radiation hits dense walls of gas, it creates shocks, which may generate new waves of star birth.

Name Predictions for Caldwell-Duggar #4 - Boy

In case you missed it, Joe and Kendra were spotted out to dinner last week with a brand new baby in tow. This baby was wrapped in a green blanket and didn’t have a bow on its head so it is suspected to be a boy, but that is not confirmed. While they have yet to publicly confirm this new addition to the family, it doesn’t really make sense to belong to anyone else. Jed and Katey were not present so it likely isn’t Truett, and the baby appeared too young to be Josiah and Lauren’s, who are rumored to have welcomed a new addition in March 2022. As of the time of writing this, Joe and Kendra have remained radio silent, so I figure I should go ahead and make my predictions now in case they announce soon. This post will contain only boys’ names, but I may make a follow up with girls’ names soon.

Previous Naming Information

Joe and Kendra have three known children, not including this rumored baby: a son, Garrett David (b. 2018), and two daughters, Addison Renee (b. 2019) and Brooklyn Praise (b. 2021). Their oldest two children share one name with their parents. Garrett’s first name is his father’s middle name, and Addison’s middle name of Renee is the same as Kendra’s middle name. Brooklyn shares her name with the middle name of Joe’s youngest sister Josie, but I think that is only a coincidence. 

Joe and Kendra seem to have different naming styles for their boys vs. their girls. Their son has a mix of a family name with a classic Biblical name, while their daughters have what I am not-so-affectionately referring to as “trendy in 2013″ names. And in fact, Addison peaked in popularity in 2010, and Brooklyn similarly peaked in 2014. There has also been speculation that Joe and Kendra have a double-letter name theme, but I'm not sure if I believe that. To me, it just seems that they picked a family name for their son and two girls names that paired well together (Addison and Brooklyn are about the most similar style they possibly could have picked IMO). Since Brooklyn did not have a family middle name, I am not going to predict that they use any more for girls, but it is possible that they still will for boys.

Preliminary Predictions

I will begin as I usually do picking out names in the Social Security Administration’s top 500 baby names that contain double letters, excluding names they have already used and names of other GrandDuggars (and Muhammad, can safely say that’s out). This will be long list, so feel free to skim or scroll past if you wish.

Boys

William (#6)

Wyatt (#29)

Matthew (#36) / Matteo (#166) (not Italian) / Matthias (#450)

Isaac (#40)

Aaron (#65)

Cooper (#68)

Brooks (#77)

Everett (#82)

Bennett (#90)

Connor (#97)

Emmett (#103)

Harrison (#120)

Giovanni (#124) / Gianni (#390) (not Italian)

Rhett (#148)

Maxwell (#163)

Messiah (#172)

Maddox (#174)

Finn (#184) / Finnegan (#376)

Emmanuel (#191)

Barrett (#192) (too close to Garrett)

Beckett (#198)

Jesse (#203)

Jett (#244)

Lennox (#254)

Kenneth (#258)

Atticus (#266)

Dallas (#270)

Callum (#273) 

Ellis (#321)

Gunner (#324)

Otto (#336)

Warren (#345)

Killian (#347)

Russell (#352)

Tanner (#358)

Briggs (#372)

Sullivan (#373)

Callan (#375) / Callen (#458)

Marshall (#379)

Apollo (#400) (Greek god? Too pagan)

Quinn (#405)

Forrest (#414)

Reed (#416)

Collin (#421)

Jeffrey (#425)

Johnny (#436)

Tripp (#445)

Wells (#479)

Cassius (#485)

Keegan (#494)

Sonny (#497)

Of these, a few stand out that I think could fit really well for Joe and Kendra. My favorites for them include William, Wyatt, Isaac, Cooper, Everett, Bennett, Connor, Harrison, Beckett, Gunner and Reed. And another double letter first name pick I'll throw in is Caldwell, Kendra’s maiden name. 

And what if they’re not doing a double letter theme for this baby? Some names I think fit with Garrett, Addison, and Brooklyn in popularity pattern, length (sometimes), and overall vibe are Christian, Dylan, Caleb, Ryan, Wesley, Tucker, Timothy, Preston, Caiden, and Nicholas.

Since Garrett’s middle name is from Joe’s side of the family, I am expecting this baby’s middle name to be after Kendra’s father: either Paul or Gene, probably Paul. James or Robert are always dark horses in this family though.

My Final Predictions

I don’t know if they’ll ever confirm this baby publicly, so who knows if we’ll find out if my guesses are right or wrong. Oh well, this is just for fun (and mostly for me anyway). I don’t know if they would ever use this name, but I really love Bennett for Joe and Kendra. Both of the girls have names ending in “-n,” so perhaps they’d pick a boy name ending in “-t” to match Garrett. Everett and Beckett could also be close contenders.

If the name doesn’t contain double letters, I have to go with Tucker or Wesley. I couldn’t really tell you why other than that I think they fit well with Garrett, Addison, and Brooklyn. Or maybe it’s because Garrett reminds me of a Tucker and Wesley I know in real life. (Nevermind, just said Tucker Duggar out loud and I hate it. Quick substitution for Christian).

My top choice for middle name is Paul over Gene, just because that is the name that Paul Caldwell goes by in real life. If the middle name is for Joe’s side of the family rather than Kendra’s it’ll be James.

And to finish off this novel of a post, here are my top ten predictions.

Bennett Paul

Everett Paul

Beckett James

Christian Gene

Wesley Paul

William James

Cooper Paul

Wyatt James

Dylan Paul

Nicholas Paul

El griego (36+18+5+3 robos) aúpa a los Bucks ante los Nuggets del serbio (29+12+8) La jornada de la NBA, en la que se disputaron 10 partidos, estuvo monopolizada por la sensaciona actuación de Víctor Wembanyama en el triunfo de los Spurs en Toronto. El gigante francés se lució con el segundo triple.doble de su carrera al lograr 27 puntos, 14 rebotes y 10 tapones en 29 minutos de partido, y rozó el cuádruple-doble, pues al descanso llevaba además 5 asistencias. Al margen de la exhibición del galo, los Mavericks lograron su quinto triunfo seguido tras doblegar a los Wizards (112-104) con otra sensacional actuación de Luka Doncic, que firmó su décimo triple-doble de la temporada (26+11+15) tras recibir varios puntos de sutura en el tercer cuarto al recibir un fuerte golpe de un rival. Además, fue una noche en la que los Milwaukee Bucks asfixiaron con su defensa a los Denver Nuggets, los Minnesota Timberwolves arrasaron a domicilio a Los Angeles Clippers y los Golden State Warriors encadenaron su quinto triunfo seguido. BUCKS 112 - NUGGETS 95 Los Bucks llevan dos partidos seguidos dejando a sus rivales por debajo de los 100 puntos y este lunes fundieron con su defensa a los Nuggets, que iban 28 puntos abajo en el tercer cuarto y que además perdieron por lesión durante el partido a Jamal Murray y Kentavious Caldwell-Pope. Giannis Antetokounmpo impartió una clase magistral con 36 puntos (imperial 14 de 19 en tiros de campo), 18 rebotes y 5 asistencias. El titán griego se impuso a un Nikola Jokic también sensacional con 29 puntos (13 de 25), 12 rebotes y 8 asistencias pero que perdió 5 balones. CLIPPERS 100 - WOLVES 121 Un gigantesco parcial de 19-40 en el tercer periodo fue el pilar sobre el que los Timberwolves edificaron una magnífica victoria en Los Ángeles ante los Clippers en este duelo mayúsculo entre el primero y el segundo del Oeste. Minnesota seguirá al frente de esa conferencia gracias al dominicano Karl-Anthony Towns (24 puntos) y Anthony Edwards (23 puntos, 7 rebotes y 8 asistencias). Los Wolves metieron un 54,1 % en tiros de campo frente al 40,5 % de los Clippers. Paul George y Kawhi Leonard, con 18 puntos cada uno, marcaron el ritmo de los californianos. JAZZ 107 - WARRIORS 129 También cinco victorias seguidas llevan los Warriors, que esta noche se deshicieron de los Jazz con 25 puntos (7 triples), 6 rebotes y 10 asistencias de Stephen Curry. Ocho jugadores de Golden State lograron dobles dígitos de anotación. Collin Sexton y Jordan Clarkson metieron 22 puntos por cabeza en Utah. CAVALIERS 121 - SIXERS 123 Pese a su abultado parte de bajas (Joel Embiid, Tobias Harris, Nico Batum, De'Anthony Melton y Robert Covington), los Sixers rompieron la racha de nueve triunfos seguidos de los Cavaliers con 24 puntos por cabeza de Buddy Hield y Kelly Oubre Jr. Donovan Mitchell, con 36 puntos, lideró al equipo de Cleveland, que estuvo a punto de forzar la prórroga y de ganar el encuentro en los últimos segundos. Mitchell asumió la responsabilidad pero su tiro de dos fue taponado por Paul Reed y el balón le llegó en la esquina a Darius Garland, quien no pudo conectar el triple desde la bocina. ROCKETS 105 - KNICKS 103 Los Knicks, todavía sin los lesionados Julius Randle y OG Anunoby, sufrieron su tercera derrota seguida tras un polémico final en Houston, ya que los árbitros, después del encuentro, reconocieron haber cometido un error en una falta pitada a Jalen Brunson en el último segundo que le dio el triunfo a los Rockets con los tiros libres de Aaron Holiday. Brunson (27 puntos y 7 asistencias) fue el más productivo de los Knicks y Dillon Brooks (23 puntos) encabezó a los Rockets. GRIZZLIES 87 - PELICANS 96 Herbert Jones (17 puntos, 9 rebotes y 5 robos) se puso al frente de unos Pelicans que se aprovecharon de unos Grizzlies en ruinas con nueve partidos seguidos perdiendo. El puertorriqueño José Alvarado consiguió 10 puntos y 3 rebotes para Nueva Orleans. Santi Aldama intenta defender a Zion WilliamsonLAPRESSE

Por su parte, el español Santi Aldama logró 6 puntos, 4 rebotes y 5 asistencias en Memphis. HORNETS 111 - PACERS 102 Miles Bridges rondó el triple-doble (20 puntos, 10 rebotes y 7 asistencias) y los Hornets sorprendieron a los Pacers en una noche muy pobre en el tiro exterior (ambos equipos por debajo del 30 % en triples). Myles Turner (22 puntos) fue el faro en ataque de Indiana. HAWKS 126 - BULLS 136 Ayo Dosunmu, con 29 puntos y 7 asistencias, tomó las riendas de Chicago junto a DeMar DeRozan (29 puntos). Bogdan Bogdanovic (28 puntos) fue el máximo anotador de Atlanta, que desaprovechó una actuación muy coral de su equipo con siete jugadores con 10 o más puntos.
