The new Labour government is following a precedent set by an earlier Labour prime minister, Harold Wilson, who said during the 1964 election campaign that Britain needed a programme of a hundred days of dynamic action, similar to the one that John F Kennedy had proposed in 1961.
Its historical associations are far from uniformly positive, after all: Napoleon was deposed for a second time at the end of his hundred days, and Harold Wilson’s first administration was troubled with a small parliamentary majority of four and was hardly a model for radical reformers.

 Amazon.co.uk: A Hundred Days Off: Music: Underworld   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
Underworld are in many ways the godfathers of techno, and A Hundred Days Off is close to a decade after their seminal debut album Dubnobasswithmyheadman firmly established their presence; they have little left to prove.
The tardy sequel to Beaucoup Fish, A Hundred Days Off has none of the former album's bristling claustrophobia and urban menace, favouring instead a joyous carnival feel riddled with cut-up live percussion and surging keyboard loops.
The bands we used to listen to back in the day are changing and evolving, yet there is still the nostalgic nature of the overall sound which reminds us of the golden years of Cowgirl and Mmm, Skyscraper I love you.

From the menacing pulse of 'Dinosaur Adventure 3D' to the glacial funk of 'Little Speaker,' A Hundred Days Off is akin to classic Detroit techno in the way it delves deeper into the machines and technology to find the humanity at their core.

 Underworld: A Hundred Days Off (2002): Reviews
What's so striking about A Hundred Days Off is that frontman/producer Hyde and producer Smith have reshaped Underworld as a duo without coming off as incomplete, overzealous, or jaded.
A Hundred Days Off is enjoyably uninspired; it defines both "pleasant" and "unremarkable".
The beauty of A Hundred Days Off is that it pumps and churns so suggestively; it somehow evokes the blues of the otherwise successful modern man, who goes out every night and dances alone in his head.

 Amazon.ca: A Hundred Days Off: Music: Underworld   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
Don't get me wrong though, I thought of Underworld A Hundred Days Off was a fresh start cause they did things a little different in the songs on it.
Much simpler and less explosive in nature ocmpared to "Beaucoup Fish", "A Hundred Days Off" picks up where that CD left off on the opening track "Momove" which ranks up there with the best stuff that came from their 1999 album "Beaucoup Fish".
In contrast to the obvious charms of experimental-crazy "Beacoup Fish" and the dance-storming debut "Dubnobasswithmyheadman", the vibe of "A Hundred Days Off" is more subtle at first impression.

The Hundred Days is the 19th (and, we are told, the penultimate) instalment of O'Brian's epic.
Indeed, The Hundred Days is very much a chronicle of a floating community, which Maturin describes as "his own village, his own ship's company, that complex entity so much more easily sensed than described: part of his natural habitat."
The timing is difficult: At the end of Yellow Admiral, Aubrey, Maturin, and their families all seem to be in the Azores, where they learn Napoleon has escaped--the Hundred Days have begun.

 Jonathan Alter, "The Defining Moment: FDR's Hundred Days and the Triumph of Hope".   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
In this dramatic and authoritative account, Newsweek columnist Jonathan Alter shows how FDR used his famous “fear itself” speech and first hundred days in office to lift the country from despair and paralysis and transform the American presidency.
Alter recounts the flurry of the first 100 days of FDR's administration, which forever altered the relationship between American citizens and the federal government.
At the height of depression, in his first hundred days, Roosevelt resisted the temptation to grab for absolute power even though, as Alter explains, the Republic would have accepted it.

 The Hundred Days, by Patrick O'Brian
Compared to the canon as a whole, and to other individual books, The Hundred Days may seem poor to many, but I think that taken alone it is simply a wonderful story, filled with gems.
Since the first time I read "The Hundred Days", I felt that whole sequence had an intentional "other world" air to it, but was unsure of whether it was done with a particular template in mind or if a general atmosphere alone had been in mind when POB wrote it.
In the fascinating WSJ article of 10/7/03, there's a giant spoiler for anyone who has not read the first chapter of The Hundred Days, where POB follows the ancient Greek drama tradition of having violent scenes take place off stage, to be announced by messenger.
