The supermoon has a tendency to bring out luna-tics… and bad lunar puns.
(Credit: Lick Observatory) The perigee full moon, a.k.a the “supermoon” is nearly upon us, to the delight of werewolves and other lunar fanatics everywhere.

The Los Angeles Clippers have reached an agreement in principle with the Boston Celtics to acquire the rights to hire head coach Doc Rivers, according to multiple reports.
Jackie MacMullan of ESPNBoston.com reported on Sunday that the Clippers will sign Rivers to a three-year deal worth $21 million. Per Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports, the Celtics will free Rivers from his current contract in exchange for an unprotected 2015 first-round draft pick. Both MacMullan and Wojnarowski report that the NBA must approve the deal. Wojnarowski reported that both teams believe getting the league’s approval won’t be an issue.
If the NBA approves the reported deal, it would be the culmination of protracted and public negotiations between the two clubs. Previously reported iterations of the deal included players as well as Rivers, notably DeAndre Jordan and Kevin Garnett. Before Game 7 of the NBA Finals, NBA Commissioner David Stern said that coaches’ contracts cannot be involved in trades under the current collective bargaining agreement, per Ken Berger of CBS Sports.”
