Passion (Geri Halliwell album)

Passion is the third studio album by English singer Geri Halliwell, released on 6 June 2005 by Innocent Records. Two singles were released from the album: "Ride It", which charted at number four, and "Desire", which charted at number 22 on the UK Singles Chart. Critics praised Halliwell's improved voice but the album was a commercial failure, peaking at number 41 with only 5,432 copies sold and charting for only one week on the UK Albums Chart. However, the album did manage to become a moderate hit worldwide, selling over half a million copies according to the Daily Mail.

Background

The album was originally titled Disco Sister with Halliwell focusing the album on electropop, EDM and Europop sounds. She recorded many songs between 2002 and 2004 with a number of producers. Songs recorded during this period that did not appear on the final album include "Set Me Off", "Turn It On", "Geri's Got Her Groove Back", "Disco Sister", "My Sweetest Pain", "Gimme Your Love" and a cover version of "100% Pure Love". But in 2004 EMI changed the focus of the album and the title to Passion, replacing most of the dance songs with ballads and pop-jazz sounds, including the new songs "Passion", "There's Always Tomorrow", "So I Give Up on Love" and the dance-pop "Desire" and "Surrender Your Groove".

Software of unknown pedigree

SOUP stands for software of unknown (or uncertain) pedigree (or provenance), and is a term often used in the context of safety-critical and safety-involved systems such as medical software. SOUP is software that has not been developed with a known software development process or methodology, or which has unknown or no safety-related properties.

Often, engineering projects are faced with economic or other pressure to embody SOUP into their high integrity systems.

The problem with SOUP is that it cannot be relied upon to perform safety-related functions, and it may prevent other software, hardware or firmware from performing their safety-related functions. The SOUP problem is therefore one of insulating the safety-involved parts of a system from the SOUP and its undesirable effects.

SOUP is now a defined term ("Software Of Unknown Provenance") in some medical device regulations through the standard IEC 62304:2006 "medical device software – software life cycle processes". It is not prohibited to use SOUP but additional controls are needed and the risk needs to be taken into account. Specific practices to take when using SOUP as part of a medical device may include review of the vendor's software development process, use of static program analysis by the vendor, design artifacts, and safety guidance.

Soup (The Housemartins and The Beautiful South album)

Soup is an album released in November 2007 by The Housemartins and The Beautiful South on Mercury Records. It is in effect a greatest hits album for both of the bands, the first seven tracks bracketed together as "The Housemartins Condensed" and the remaining fifteen as "The Cream of The Beautiful South". All twenty two songs were released as singles by the bands, and the track listing runs in chronological order by year of song release from 1985's "Flag Day" to 2003s "Just A Few Things That I Ain't". An associated DVD of the bands music videos was also released.

Background

The album came into being as two of The Housemartins, Paul Heaton and Dave Hemingway formed The Beautiful South upon the former's breakup in 1988. The Beautiful South therefore were seen as the next guise of The Housemartins. Both bands had already had two greatest hits albums: The Housemartins in 1988 (Now That's What I Call Quite Good) and 2004 (The Best of The Housemartins), and The Beautiful South in 1994 (Carry on up the Charts) and 2001 (Solid Bronze).
