One of these things is not like the other...

See if you can spot the not too slight difference in the reporting contained in these two articles, which I found via KJL at the Corner. First report:


German scientists said on Friday they had isolated sperm-producing stem cells that have similar properties to embryonic stem cells from adult mice.

If the same type of cells in humans show similar qualities the researchers from the Georg-August-University of Goettingen believe they could be used in stem cell research which would remove the ethical dilemma associated with stem cells derived from human embryos.

"These isolated spermatogonial stem cells respond to culture conditions and acquire embryonic stem cell properties," Gerd Hasenfuss and his colleagues said in report published online by the journal Nature.

Second report, title only:


Embryonic Stem Cell Success

I was trying to come up with something snarky, but my brain just imploded. Repair crews are adding back the logic and truthfullness that got sucked out of them by the Waskington Post.
