Not Just A Case Of A Few Rotten Apples

The apple is the pomaceous fruit of the apple tree, species Malus domestica in the rose family (Rosaceae), and is a perennial. It is one of the most widely cultivated tree fruits, and the most widely known of the many members of genus Malus that are used by humans.

The tree originated in Western Asia, where its wild ancestor is still found today. There are more than 7,500 known cultivars of apples, resulting in a range of desired characteristics.

An apple a day keeps the doctors away. The ancient Egyptians, Greeks and Romans loved apples so much that they developed dozens of varieties.

We eat all the fresh apples we want, and we surely stay away from the rotten ones.

Three Apples That Changed The World

Steven Paul Jobs (February 24, 1955 – October 5, 2011)

Steven Jobs, the Apple Inc. chairman and co-founder who pioneered the personal-computer industry and changed the way people think about technology, died October 5 at the age of 56.

"Apple has lost a visionary and creative genius, and the world has lost an amazing human being," Mr. Cook said in a letter to employees. "We will honor his memory by dedicating ourselves to continuing the work he loved so much."
