...what would happen then, if a person lost his ID 10 times? If such an especially forgetful student came along, Wamback says, the last digit would simply be reset, beginning again at zero. Despite the many absent-minded undergraduates who have come dangerously close to accumulating ten lost ID’s, this reset function has never actually been put to the test—Wamback says that the greatest number of times a student has ever lost his ID is 9 times in four years...

During my six-day stay, they treated 64 patients, 70% of whom were Iraqis, with injuries varying from gunshot wounds to broken limbs to amputation completions.

Instead, they are replaced by winding synths that are every bit as infectious, yet sound unmistakably modern. Fatboy Slim’s production exposes new sides of Blur that were probably kept in check by Coxon’s conservative presence in the band...
