I've gathered from that that Germans are basically benevolent robots.

Yep, that's what you are called when you take care of your $h!t and fail to display the signs of normal human behavior: cheating, stealing, free-riding, squandering, finger-pointing, loafing and sweeping under the rug.

Norwegians are giant trolls, who dwells in the forest and on the mountains.

Norwegians who live near the sea are basicaly Draugers (look that up)

And the winner is … Greece! Really trustworthy!

Well, at least they had an OK Eurovision song, starting as a rebetiko from the 30s and developing into some catchy folk rock with a lot of humour. In case you haven’t heard it, here is Alcohol is Free:
He say nothing is quite what it seems;
I say nothing is nothing

Well, if it means that Bachir Al-Assad stops launching missiles on the Syrian rebels... (Is there an emoticon for signaling dark humour?)

No comments on the cloning of human cells producing stem cells?
Great technological step no doubt. As usual the fear lies in the fact that so long as some technology exists, no matter if we declare a certain use of it to be illegal, somebody is going to use it.

Dr Frankenstein was a fiction, his Prometheus more so. Some gas alarms have radioactive sources and old wrist-watches used radioactive paint on the dials, but let's not go making atom bombs out of them just yet.
What?

A wink would probably suffice..

Assad needs to stop using chemical weapons on civilians. As for bombing the rebels, well, he's at war with them so that has to be expected. The rebel factions themselves are not angels, of course and are suspected of using chemical weapons themselves.

Been watching the footage on the BBC & it's horrific. The whole area looks like a war zone. Sincere best wishes & prayers to anyone affected.

And it sure didn't take long for the global warming kooks to come out from under the rocks to exploit this. Interestingly, back in 1975 global cooling was to blame for these. I guess they just can't make up their minds.

sad to se the destruction, of those tornados, so many children, but you are very helpless when the mighty nature is sending its worse arsenal, and these tornados (which are reported to be the most deadly in historym were "just" class 4, i don't want to see a class 6, if that ever happens.
