Прокурор Бецова възложи проверките на НАП и криминалната полиция. Наскоро тя прекрати проверката срещу Делян Пеевски, майка му Ирена Кръстева, Николай Бареков и Цветан Василев, започнала по сигнал на "Протестна мрежа"

Главният прокурор не възприема асоциирането на българските магистрати с кошница ябълки

А мосю Ксавие Лапер дьо Кабан каква ябълка е...

Нахапана ябълка - от интимния му приятел

Кабанчето сигурно знае историята на емблемата на Apple Computers

Alan Turing was a 20th century British mathematician, logician, but his fame comes from his work as a cryptoanalyst and his success in designing and improving techniques for deciphering German Code during the Second World War.
The discussion stems from This picture from The Pride Network.
I do not know much about computers or their history, so I will not discuss whether or not Alan Turing's influence on Computer Science is as great as the picture suggests. Instead I will correct a few incorrect allegations made in the computer and in the subsequent posts.
In 1954 homosexuality was illegal. Turing was given a choice between imprisonment or to undergo hormonal treatment. He committed suicide.
This portion of the text is not a completely accurate portrayal of what happened in regards to the timeline of the events as well as Turing's course of action.
In January of 1952 Turing began a relationship with Arnold Murray. Later that month, his home was burglarized by an acquaintance of Murray's. When Turing informed the authorities he eventually revealed his informant and the nature of their relationship, after having been accused of lying by the Detectives. (Hodges 457) Turing was charged under the Criminal Law Amendment Act of 1885 for the crime of Gross Indecency. (Hodges 458) Alan wrote to his brother John, informing him of the circumstances and his plan to plead "not guilty". His brother headed to Manchester and met with a "leading firm of solicitors" who helped him convince Alan to plead guilty. In March of that year Alan was convicted and given the choice between imprisonment or hormonal treatments of estrogen. Turing accepted the hormonal treatments, which eventually made him impotent and develop breasts. It was two years later on June 8, 1954 Alan Turing was found dead, due to cyanide poisoning. The most accepted theory is that he poisoned an apple that he usually ate before going to bed, but some have pointed to a theory suggesting that he might have accidentally inhaled cyanide during one of his experiments.
So differing from what the photograph states, Turing was convicted in 1952, he did choose to receive the hormonal therapy, and then he is believed to have killed himself.
Now on to the tumblr comments!
He committed suicide by biting into a cyanide laced apple. This is supposedly the inspiration for the name/logo of Apple computers.

В началото логото на компанията е сложна картинка, на която е представен Исак Нютон, седящ под дърво. Дизайна е на Steve Jobs и Ronald Wayne. Steve Jobs наема Rob Janoff да опрости логото, което се оказва доста добра идея. Rob създава логото с ябълката, в която се виждат цветовете на дъгата. Това е логото на компанията до 1998 г. Има различни слухове за произхода на това лого. Според един от тях, ябълката е в чест на Нютон, а цветовете на дъгата представят цветната графика на Apple II.
Според друг слух, отхапаната ябълка е знак за уважение към математика Alan Turing, който се е самоубил като е изял ябълка, която преди това е напоил с цианид. Turing се счита за баща на модерния компютър.
