  Standing on the Derbyshire moors as a blizzard rages, a young reporter is about to cover the biggest story of his life - the infamous Pottery Cottage Murders. 
  A newspaper editor comes face to face with a city's most notorious armed robber...who is offering to strike a deal that will blow two major court cases apart. 
  A senior publishing executive flies to Pakistan to plead for the release of a terrified British reporter, who has been locked in a flea-ridden jail surrounded by murderers and thugs, on suspicion of being a spy. 
  These are just three of the riveting moments from the career of journalist Neil Benson, recounted in fascinating detail in his memoir You Can't Libel the Dead. 
  The book lifts the lid on the life and professional challenges of a newspaper editor, from the decision to unmask a popular priest as a serial paedophile, to fiery confrontations with household-name football managers.

  Alan Mathison Turing was a mathematician, computer system researcher, scholar, cryptanalyst, thinker, and theoretical biologist from the U.K. With the Turing device, which can be considered a design of a general-purpose computer system, Turing had a substantial influence on the development of theoretical computer technology, offering a formalization of the ideas of algorithm and calculation. Turing is considered the creator of theoretical computer technology and AI. 
  Turing was born in Maida Vale, London, and raised in the south of England. He earned a mathematics degree from King's College, Cambridge. He released a presentation suggesting that some simple math-- no questions can never ever be replied by computer system while a fellow at Cambridge, built a Turing device, and went on to reason that the Turing device's stopping issue is undecidable. 
  He got his PhD from Princeton University's Department of Mathematics in 1938. Turing worked for the Federal government Code and Cypher School (GC&CS) at Bletchley Park, Britain's codebreaking center where Ultra intelligence was developed, throughout WWII. He led Hut 8, the area in charge of German navy cryptanalysis, for a time. Here, he developed some methods for breaking German ciphers quicker, including but not limited to adjustments to the pre-war Polish bombe gadget, an electromechanical system that could recognize Enigma device settings. 
  Turing contributed to analyzing obstructed coded signals that permitted the Allies to beat the Axis powers in some crucial fights, including but not limited to the Battle of the Atlantic. 
  A movie has been made about him, called the “Imitation Game.” Let’s find out the real truth that doesn’t become obvious through this Hollywood production, the background of this conflicted but powerful genius.
