 Radio Regen: Six Years of Community Radio in Manchester - Moss Side & Hulm FM
Moss Side and Hulme FM "We're not broadcasting to the people of Moss Side and Hulme, we are the people of Moss Side and Hulme," said Chris Stoneham, Station Manager at Moss Side & Hulme FM at the start of 2004.
While Moss Side's riots and gun crime made global headlines, Hulme was notorious for the terrible state of its run-down Crescents and tower blocks, before it witnessed one of the country's biggest ever regeneration schemes.
Moss Side & Hulme FM was been able to draw on a potent radio and musical legacy.

This is important for the mosses because the north sides of trees (in the northern hemisphere) are shadier and therefore moister.
In the northern hemisphere, that's usually the northern side, and in the southern hemisphere, it's usually the southern side.

 Moss Side - Districts & Suburbs of Manchester UK
Moss Side, as the name suggests, was originally at the edge of a "moss" or a peatbog moorland.
Moss side has, therefore, been occupied since the earliest of pre-Conquest times, and has a consistent occupation right up to the present day.
In recent years Moss Side has had a chequered and unfortunate history due largely to the proliferation of gun and drug-related crimes in the district, so that armed police now regularly patrol its streets.

 Ashworth History   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Moss Side, along with its sister institutions of Broadmoor, Rampton and Carstairs, became hospitals in July 1948 with the creation of the National Health Service but the four hospitals continued to be managed by the Board of Control until 1959 when the Mental Health Act brought about the Board's dissolution.
Unlike Moss Side, it was surrounded by a high security wall, completely separating it from the rest of the campus, allowing the two hospitals to function independently.
The original Moss Side buildings were overcrowded and in a poor state of repair and were no longer considered appropriate for modern treatment methods so a massive new building scheme on Ashworth East began.

There are gateways placed in the centre of the W and E sides, with an external titulum outside the E, but large gaps in the N & S defences cannot be proven to be gates.
This camp lies almost entirely within the defences of Camp-2, and was possibly built first.
This almost rectangular camp has gateways placed centrally in its E & W sides and others in the N & S sides off-set towards the E; the camp therefore faced E. A trapezoidal annexe of 3 acres (1.2 ha) was attached to the W end of the N defences of this camp.

Moss never stood by like a mildly interested onlooker the way he did on the plays Hoge showed four years ago, but he did have several lazy plays (all runs) when he merely jogged off the line of scrimmage.
I remember one play last year where Moss and one of the other WRs (Campbell maybe?) went streaking down the field to the endzone with 3 defenders right around them… all of whom were paying most of their attention to Moss as Campbell got the catch and ran right in behind him.
Moss has said repeatedly that he was being sarcastic when he said, “I play when I want to.” yet we rarely hear his disclaimer reported.

 Julian Cope Presents Head Heritage | Unsung | Reviews | Barry Adamson - Moss Side Story
Moss Side Story forms the first episode of an "inadvertent trilogy" along with Soul Murder (1992) and Oedipus Scmoedipus, but differs significantly from the others in its sheer darkness.
Each of them are intended to suggest the convoluted investigations of a cool, modern Marlowe (the conceit being that as the albums unfold,we became increasingly aware that the guy's not on a case, but investigating himself and his past in order to escape from a crisis of identity).
Whereas its companions are leavened with punning narrative and backhanded humour, Moss Side Story is a plunge down into jeopardy, only bottoming out in its final moments.
