Campaign to win official apology for Alan Turing
A CAMPAIGN has been launched to win a posthumous apology for computer pioneer Alan Turing over his conviction for homosexuality.
The brilliant mathematician, who spent his key years at Manchester University, is hailed as one of the founders of modern computing.
But a conviction for homosexuality effectively ended his career. Troubled Turing went on to commit suicide in 1954, aged just 41.

UFOs made 600 visits to the UK in a single year, according to MoD 'X-Files'
Hundreds of Britons had 'close encounters' with UFOs, according to previously-classified documents released by the Ministry of Defence today.
The sightings were made between 1981 and 1996 from observers including police officers, fighter pilots and school children. They range from lights in the sky to close contact with aliens with 'lemon-shaped heads', and include detailed analysis on some of the UK's most well-known cases.

Are You Being Manipulated By Subliminal Ads?
When I was in high school, I had a friend who was doing a project on subliminal messages. Of course I had no idea what he was talking about.
So he explained in small words so that I could understand. It went something like this: "A subliminal message is something embedded in something else that is not recognized by your conscious mind. Like in an advertisement."
He then showed me a page torn from a magazine. On the page was a woman in a conservative dress. She was attractive, and somewhat sexy. I don't recall what the ad was for.

Klenk-Blog im Justizministerium wieder abrufbar
Website fiel internem Content-Filter zum Opfer
Klenks Seite beinhalte demnach "Wörter und Inhalte", die in die Kategorien "Sex, Chat, Gambling und Hacking bzw. Spyware, criminal activity, violence, weapons, illegal drugs" fielen, weshalb die Website für die Mitarbeiter nicht zugänglich war, (Antwort des Ministeriums an Florian Klenk können Sie hier auf florianklenk.com nachlesen). Mittlerweile sei die Seite aber wieder freigeschaltet worden, versicherte das Ministerium.
