Libertys Sabrina Ionescu Breaks Diana Taurasis WNBA Record for 3s in a Season

It was a record-breaking day for New York Liberty guard Sabrina Ionescu. The two-time All-Star knocked down her 122nd three-pointer of the season during the Liberty's game against the Los Angeles Sparks, breaking Diana Taurasi's single-season record in the process. Taurasi knocked down 121 three-pointers during the 2006 season with the Phoenix Mercury. Ionescu entered the game against the Sparks with 120, so breaking the record was certainly possible heading into the contest. Ionescu is not the only player on the Liberty to break a 2006 Taurasi record this season as forward Breanna Stewart broke the single-season points record of 860 on Tuesday night. The Liberty are currently 31-7 and have the top record in the Eastern Conference. They have clinched that top seed but are just one game behind the Las Vegas Aces for the best overall record in the WNBA. Ionescu is a key reason why the team has been so successful as she is averaging 17 points with 5.6 rebounds and 5.3 assists in 34 games. She also possesses a career-high .444 shooting percentage from the three point line which has really been a huge reason why she was able to beak Taurasi's mark. The WNBA playoffs are set to begin September 13 and the Liberty will look to inch closer to the first championship in franchise history.

British victory in Falklands War might spur Argentina to build nukes CIA feared

Agency worried that Argentina's political isolation following defeat could play a role in a decision to advance its nuclear program The CIA feared that British victory in the 1982 Falklands conflict would encourage Argentina's ruling military junta to step up its efforts to construct nuclear weapons, according to a newly uncovered report. Intelligence analysts at the spy agency examining the issue of nuclear proliferation wrote in a secret report that "the Falkland Islands crisis is raising security issues for Buenos Aires that could influence Argentine attitudes towards the development of nuclear technology." The report, dated 24 April 1982, said: "A humiliation in the Falklands probably would encourage the conclusion that the possession of nuclear weapons - or merely the foreign belief that Argentina had such weapons - might have made the UK more accommodating. A major reverse for Argentina in the dispute could persuade it to proceed to build nuclear weapons....

Osho on Spontaneity

Osho on Spontaneity – Divine purity reduced to practical life means spontaneity Osho – Divine purity reduced to practical life means spontaneity. The spontaneous person is innocent. He has a quality that only children have, and that is the meaning of purity, innocence. He has the quality that animals have and the trees have and which man has lost. To be spontaneous means not to act out of the past, because out of the past is all cunningness, cleverness, calculation, arithmetic. When you act in the moment and it has no reference to your past, the action has a beauty, a purity – the same as a small child’s act. Whether he laughs or cries or goes into a tantrum or becomes angry, all his acts have purity – it is uncalculated. His anger is hot and not cold. The calculated anger is cold. His anger is natural, a responsiveness. He has not brooded over it, he has not planned it. He is just in the hands of nature – hence the beauty. He is surrendered to his nature; he is not trying to cont...
