	Spin (public relations) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In public relations, spin is a usually pejorative term signifying a heavily biased portrayal in one's own favor of an event or situation.
		"Spin" was originally an acronym, "Significant Progress In the News," used by public relations specialists in the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI) in the mid-1980s.
		It is the PR equivalent of calling a writer a "hack." Perhaps the most well-known person in the UK often described as a "spin doctor" is Alastair Campbell, who was involved with Tony Blair's public relations between 1994 and 2003.

		Formed in New York in 1991, the Spin Doctors began as Trucking Company in 1989 with Chris Barron (singer/songwriter), Eric Schenkman and John Popper, high school friends from Princeton, N.J. Popper left to form Blues Traveler, so Aaron Comess, New School (a school associated with Parsons) classmate joined the band.
		The voice of the Spin Doctors is without his voice.
		According to Spin Doctors drummer Aaron Comess, Barron's affliction began during a string of shows in late May. "Chris woke up on a Monday morning and had no voice," he said.

		His New Political Dictionary describes “spin” as “deliberate shading of news perception; attempted control of political reaction.” (See Wordspy for this definition and an elaboration.) This is basic: spin is an art of control.
		The spin in question comes from pool and baseball, according to Graeme Donald’s Dictionary of Modern Phrase, “relating to a ball struck by the cue or pitched in such a way as to behave deceptively in travel due to what is known in British circles as ‘side’ or spin.
		And to be fair, that logic—using Spin Alley for choice access to blue-chip experts in time to file—still holds for smaller fish in the pond and the foreign press covering presidential campaigns, as Mark Leibovich reported for The Washington Post.

		The quantum dot acted as an artificial atom, and by feeding in electrons one at a time from the reservoirs, the state of the dot could be changed.
		The total spin of the quantum dot depended on which electrons had been fed in, and this affected how easy or hard it was to feed in more electrons.
		It is especially significant for quantum computing, where spin state is an integral part of the equations at the heart of much of the work being done.

		Taking a cue from the most famous doctor of all time - Frankenstein - the four musical mad scientists mate the body of their core sound with bits and pieces of diverse genres.
		The first side concludes with three songs of dysfunctional relationships and lost love, "I Can't Believe You're Still With Her," "She Used To Be Mine," and "She's Not You." Throughout the trio, the tone progresses from one of upbeat disbelief to mellow sadness.
		The Spin Doctors walk a fine line on this album, and deliver enough continuity to not alienate their core fanbase, along with the experimentation needed to attract new listeners.

		According to the letters from Dr. John Deck, Dr. Murray Naiberg and Dr. Robert Huxter, - all part of the coroner's office - the chiropractors were told, in December, 1996, of the death and promised to inform their professional community and the public about the woman's death and the risks of chiropractic neck manipulation.
		The chiropractors' recollection of that meeting is not the same as that of the three doctors and they now deny that they were told the final cause of Lana Lewis' death.
		"The three of them (the doctors) had a more-or-less collective recollection that it was accepted and that the chiropractors made an undertaking and commitment to notify the members of their profession about this incident and to remind them of the inherent risks of this procedure," Lucas said in an earlier interview.

		When you think of the Spin Doctors, there's that memory of the first album, the hard-edged bluesy guitar, the snapping drums, the "little miss, little miss" vocals.
		At least these songs sound like they were written in a relatively short period of time, and with a trio consisting of Eric Schenkman (formerly of the Spin Doctors), Corky Laing (Mountain), and Noel Redding (Jimi Hendrix), you get pretty much what you'd expect.
		That's not to say it's a bad disc; songs like "Midnight Rose," which begins with that trademark Spin Doctors guitar riff (and you know the one I'm talking about), had me tapping my foot, and recalling the glory days of British glam rock.
