moby embraces remix format

you can love moby or hate moby, but the news item that moby’s embracing his dj fans.

Moby’s new track Lift Me Up – released today – comes with the new di music player that gives fans the ability to edit and personalise tracks using alternative, original material that is also included with the single, and resave them as MP3 files. The scope of the alternative materials is unlimited, with Moby providing a number of alternative vocals, guitar, drums and base tracks.

mix it the way you like… that is, if you’re interested enough to work it.

another girl missing

today i came across a headline on a wire service – “For 5th Day, No Clues on Missing Fla. Girl” (look up the story yourself).

now, i don’t mean to be cynical, but i’ve heard about this missing florida girl a few times now, despite being mostly unplugged from the world lately. she’s been on the wire services several times. and i guess that’s a good thing. maybe someone will find her….

… but i can’t help wondering about all the other missing girls out there that aren’t making the wire services. and boys. and adults.

so, let’s dig up a statistic:

how many missing children are there? [national center for missing and exploited children]

According to NISMART-2 research, which studied the year 1999, an estimated 797,500 children were reported missing; 58,200 children were abducted by nonfamily members; 115 children were the victims of the most serious, long-term nonfamily abductions called “stereotypical kidnappings”; and 203,900 children were the victims of family abductions.

so what makes this florida girl more worth my attention than all these others?
