Comparing Lakers fans and Clippers fans — on the analyst’s couch: Of course, they’re different psychologically. For one thing, only one group needs its team to win. It’s all in the “locus of control.”
“Lakers fans are realists, while Clippers fans are optimists,” clinical psychologist Nancy Lee says, based on her professional interactions with followers of both franchises.
… “Lakers fans have an internal locus of control,” she says. “This means they feel responsible for their own destiny. They attribute success to hard work and perseverance.
“Clippers fans have a higher external locus of control. So they believe that fate, chance or luck determine events.”

Singer Whitney Houston died Saturday in Beverly Hills, according to law enforcement sources.
Authorities are trying to determine a cause of death. It’s unclear whether she died at a hotel or in a residence, said the source, who asked to remain anonymous because the investigation is ongoing.
Houston, 48, was in the Los Angeles area for a musical tribute to music executive Clive Davis and had performed and spoken to reporters earlier in the week.

Feb. 7 — Senj, Croatia — Lampposts are covered in ice in this Adriatic coastal town as Europeans across the continent have been battling more than a week of extreme weather. Thousands are still trapped by snow in remote mountain villages in the Balkans, and hundreds — most of them homeless — are dead after temperatures dropped well below zero.
