All cold case files are pulled from the shelves regularly for review, often with a fresh pair of eyes looking for anything has been missed. Just because there is no further public activity does not mean that enquiries are not going on behind the scenes. Families are not necessarily reliable on...

If she wasn't fluent in English it would certainly count against her in any application for a PhD programme.

The rumours were unsubstantiated. He is being held in a segregation precisely due to fears that he could be vulnerable to attack. https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater-manchester-news/moj-responds-after-reports-southport-30867563

I known what you mean about these images fading out around the edges. Some people's ears are very distinctive, such as Somerton Man's.

A couple of O[rdinary] Levels was fairly respectable for that era. From 1944 to 1972 the school leaving age was 15. It's raising to 16 in 1972 was not universally popular, especially amongst some of the traditional working class. Since exams were taken at 16 it meant that before 1972 many...

What you're referring to are what are known as "taught masters", ie lectures, seminars, written work and (usually but not always) exams, and yes - these involve no significant research and, as you note, are not intended as a gateway to higher research-based degrees. It would be useful to know...

If she had been doing courses in how to research, that suggests that she had not taken any prior research based degrees, eg MA/MSc by research or a MPhil. In such a case, she would be at a serious disadvantage when competing against other prospective students who had prior research experience...

OK, so tide information for Brightlingsea. On 3 March the tides were: 06.27 - low tide 12.11 - high tide 18.30 - low tide 4 March 00.30 - high tide https://www.brightlingseaharbour.org/documents/559/0126_BRIGHTLINGSEA_2026_HW__LW_-_4_months_per_page.pdf So the tide was going out during the...

It's a while since I knew students doing PhDs in the UK, but normally one is accepted on the basis of a specific research proposal for which funding might be available if the proposal is accepted. Alternatively, especially in the sciences, a student may undertake research which is sponsored and...

I'm pretty sure we can rule out a rogue wave. While the North Sea is known for them, east coast river estuaries and creeks are not. Looking at the harbour area, it's not the sort of place one could fall in and drown without being noticed or found. And if one is determined to end one's life...

New images could be key to solving mystery of body in wetsuit Detectives hope a new digital recreation of a man's face could help them work out who he was - 18 months on from his highly decomposed body being found in a remote mid Wales reservoir. The discovery of the man, who was wearing...

It's just mud banks and a muddy bottom. This is what it looks like downstream of the area Jack was walking around and at low tide. https://www.alamy.com/stock-photo-the-avon-gorge-at-low-tide-in-bristol-england-the-river-avon-sweeps-135992530.html

None. The police computer randomly assigns a code name to operations. (I see this has already been answered above)

The law and medical practice will vary between jurisdictions but the position I stated earlier is what is done in the UK. The doctors make a decision whether to continue or withdraw treatment based on their assessment of the patient's chance of recovery and/or quality of life. In the vast...

That would depend on the body of water, I suspect. The river and canal system in and around Bristol is no longer used for navigation other than a few pleasure craft and there's little activity to stir up a body there or places for one to get caught up. Marine shipping docks at Avonmouth and...

There are reports, currently unconfirmed, on X that Axel Rudakubana has been attacked in prison when a number of men forced him to drink bleach. No other information at present.

For anyone interested in medical futility cases, Thaddeus Pope has collected legal depositions on many cases going back 40 years or more. https://thaddeuspope.com/medicalfutility/futilitycases.html

That's not the case. The question of medical futility comes into play here, and that is a matter for the doctors as in the UK they are not legally required to provide treatment which they consider futile or not to be in the interests of the patient. If Huntley is brain damaged to the extent that...

Soham beast Ian Huntley is blind, brain-damaged and will likely die soon after having his head smashed apart in jail attack, report says Child killer Ian Huntley will likely die after he was beaten with a metal pole in a prison attack - and if he lives he will be blind, sources claim. The...

Yes, I'd been thinking that these were actually bearer securities so effectively a form of currency. They used to be fairly common in various forms but have been mostly phased out of the international banking and finance system over the past two decades or so because they facilitate dosh...
