The Turkish embassy to Belgium asked Flanders (which had a large Turkish community) to investigate organizations linked to the Gülen movement.
What kinda organizations

Uh, Erdogan just said not to worry.
To quote the film 2012:
When they tell you not to panic, that's when you run!
Pretty grim reading about the breakdown of Yugoslavia, how the government police and military said they'd be back... And then all went to hell

Because neutrinos obviously interact as strongly as electromagnetic-spectrum radiation.

Heiterverzweiflung. Not a legit German word so much as something a friend and I made up in German class once. "Carefree despair". When life is so fucked that you can't stop laughing.

LW: Newspapers, schools, that kind of stuff. Although today the Turkish ambassador apologized for saying the Flemish government had tight relation with Gülen's movement.

And, well, why worry about democracy and the rule of law? They're gone already?

Democracy just barely made it to the Greekish islands. Rule of law's boat sank and it drowned in the mediterranean sea.

Duh. Neutrinos mutate all the time! And when they do act like microwaves, somehow heating up the core without cooking people alive.
I thought it was latinos mutating? The rhythm is gonna get ya!

According to his fans and supporters, the 65 year old Russian balloon captain Fedor Konyukov has succesfully managed to fly around the globe in his balloon.
He arrived back in Notham (AUS), where he had taken off on the 12th of this month.
With this, he has managed to set a new world speed record, managing to do it in 11 days and 6 hours.
During his flight he reached altitudes of up to 10km, and endured temperatures of down to minus 56 Celcius.

The previous record holder, Steve Fossett (US), completed his journey in 13 days.

The World Air Sports Federation still needs to officially acknowledge the result.

They're nearly as bad as badgers. Build a couple of anti-buzzard SAM sites marksdwarf towers and your fortress will look like Baghdad in 2003 from all the aerial bolt spam. You waste a lot of ammo and everything is covered in unslightly exploded buzzard bits and broken bolts.

In a globalized forum, all news is appropriate in all threads
