Category archive: Bloggers and blogging
When you talk about an airplane being blown up, that usually means it has been exploded, destroyed, incinerated. This airplane, however, has been blown up, yet it looks like this:
Details at 6k. This posting here is basically a celebration, of the fact that I am now able to get to 6k, copy pictures from 6k, etc.
For the last few days, right up until nearly now, my computer was unable or unwilling to access 6k. Everything else: okay, but rather clunky. 6K: not. I checked if this was 6k's fault by trying to access 6k via my mobile, and that worked. Ergo, it was me. Strange, and rather frustrating, because I like 6k. And now, for some equally bizarre reason, my computer did some sort of internet connection hiccup involving that thing where it says something about a testing process and says you have to check in again, with some password you never knew you had which you can actually ignore by just opening a new window, and once I reopened a new window, everything was suddenly back working properly. And: 6k returned.
Dodgy connection? Well, maybe, but I hadn't touched any of the connections. Why did this happen? Don't know. And: don't care, unless it happens again. Then: it did happen again. Fiddled about with connections. TURNED COMPUTER OFF AND TURNED COMPUTER ON AGAIN. Seems now to work. Weird.
Also weird is what the Russians are about to be getting up to. (The airplane above is Russian.) Some things never change. The Russians are always doing one of two things: pretending to be weaker than they are, or pretending to be stronger than they are. They seem to be in a stronger than they are phase just now.
Life is full of mysteries. More so, as you get older.
Here. The fourth of five postings at Samizdata today, so far.
I just opened up my camera to look at the latest snaps I've been snapping, and it turns out that, last Friday, in addition to fretting about my meeting and then being pleased about my meeting, I also, while out shopping for my meeting, took this:
If you like that, then you should definitely be a regular visitor to this blog. I'm thinking of postings like: this, this, this, and this. To name the most recent ones with pictures of a similar sort. Trawl back through his archives and you'll find many more.
In fact, I reckon that had it not been for Mick Hartley's infuence, I would probably not have taken my photo, of this Hockneyesque, Hartleyesque sort.
Last weekend and all through this week, despite still not being totally well, I have been doing lots of socialising. I now face more. This Friday I have a meeting at my own home (Michael Jennings speaking about Australia). Today, my cricket buddy Darren and I are going to see Surrey v Gloucs at the Oval. Plus, The Guru and I are, in the midst of all this, trying to fix a visit by him to see to my big old home computer ("Dawkins" is the name I think I gave it), in time to beat the Windows 10 For Free deadline, which I think is on Friday also. So, blogging here during the next few days may be more perfunctory than usual. It may not, but it may.
On the other hand, blogging doesn't need to take that long, and while doing this apology-for-not=blogging posting, I also concocted another blog posting. See below.
This is why I make a point of promising nothing, so very frequently. Once I have promised nothing, my immediate inclination is to break that promise. Whereas, if I promise something, that is all too likely to be the promise that will get broken.
I have been neglecting Libertarian Home of late. Let me assure LH's Dear Leader Simon Gibbs that this is not permanent, just a combination of the declining energy that accompanies advancing years, and being, first, knackered by my French expedition, ant then preoccupied with the meeting I hosted on Friday addressed by Dominic Frisby. (Because this was a dry run for a theatrical performance at the Edinburgh Festival in August, some rearranging was required in my tiny front room, to make it less completely unlike a theatre.)
Simon has made it easy for me to respond positively to his constant nudgings, by serving up a nudge that is very easy for me to respond to, and in fact which I am glad to respond to, because it takes care of my something-every-day self-imposed rule here, for today.
At the Libertarian Home secret coven site where Simon nudges most of his nudgings to his various LH helpers and comrades, he posted this picture, which he recently snapped in Trafalgar Square:
Click on that to get the original, bigger and with more verbiage.
It is typical of Simon that he nudged this in my direction (picking me out individually thereby ensuring that an email about the nudge would reach me immediately) by emphasising the horizontality of this photo. (He had other ways of recommending it to others.) What this illustrates is that Simon is good at tuning in to how others think, which is the bedrock of the art of persuasion.
Could the horizontality of a photo mean less to Simon Gibbs if it tried? Probably not. But Simon knows that horizontality means something (that was one of the snaps in this posting) to me.
Photographic horizontality interests me because it suits the blogging format by helping to make blog postings vertically shorter and hence less unwieldy than they would otherwise be, and because horizontality also suits other circumstances that happen to be of interest to me.
So, he used it. Thus are ideological movements built and strengthened.
That Brexit thing is getting less and less horizontal by the minute, apparently. Although I promise nothing, I have in mind (more Gibbs nudging) to go to Trafalgar Square this afternoon and try to photo the whole thing.
I already showed you some Narbonne bridges, snapped during my France expedition. Here are more bridges.
Are these first lot of bridges really bridges, or are they just buildings with holes in the bottom of them to let people through? I reckon these make the cut, but once the buildings start really piling up on top of the holes …?:
I'm doing these bridge photos in sets of three, and next is a clutch of photos of a set of three bridges that connect the town of Ceret to the other side of the local river. Picasso spent time in Ceret, because of the light. (I also photoed Renault Picassos.)
The regular shot of these bridges is from below, as you can see if you click on the second of these photos. But I was with people who were in a hurry, so I only got to photo the bridges from the other bridges, or in one case, the shadow of a bridge, from the bridge. And oh look, photographers!:
In the first of these next three bridge photos, there are three more bridges, by my count. They're in the seaside town of Collioure. The other two are in Perpignan, where, just like in Quimper (where I have also visited these same friends (G(od)D(aughter)2's family) – they have houses all over the place), there is a river flowing through the middle of the town with multiple bridges over it.
Finally, here are some rather more modern bridges. First there is one of the main motorway from France to Spain, which carries a lot of lorries.
The motorways of Europe may, I surmise, be the place on earth where robot drivers have their first seriously big impact. Robot cars are too complicated, and to start with, what will be the point of them? But robot lorries will be able to travel a lot faster than regular lorries, for a lot longer than regular lorries, on roads that are the most controlled and predictable roads in existence. European motorways carry colossal amounts of freight, unlike in the USA, where a lot freight goes by train, Europe's railways being full of passenger trains. And there's nothing like a sight of this particular motorway, handily shown off by being placed on the side of a mountain in full view of the local and non-charged version of the same road, to see all this.
In the middle below is a hastily snapped shot from a bridge as we drove over it, over a newly constructed high speed passenger railway, again connecting France to Spain. Brand new railways lines have a certain pristine charm, I think, with the gravel under the tracks yet to be blackened by constant use.
Finally, we have what may well be my favourite South of France bridge photo of them all, on the right there. This is one of those unselfconsciously functional footbridges, which more and more abound in towns and cities (London has many such bridges), and which join work spaces off the ground to other work spaces off the ground. This particular footbridge is in Perpignan.
Quite why such bridges, which have long been around, are now proliferating is an interesting question. Maybe it is just that organisations are getting bigger, and demand bigger buildings, and connecting two buildings by a footbridge of this sort turns two buildings into one building, at any rate for certain purposes. If two bureaucracies that live across the road from each other merge, then a bridge joining the top floors together is the logical first managerial step. This allows the new bosses to commune with one another, without having to trundle up and down and across the road all day long, rubbing their shoulders with the unclean shoulders of their underlings. Lower footbridges bridges enable functional specialisation to proliferate among lesser personages.
But, what do I know? My point is, I like such footbridges. And whereas most of the other bridges in this posting are the sort that feature in lots of other people's photos and in picture postcards, these Brand-X urban footbridges are only a Thing because I say they are. Which is a major purpose of truly good photography. Truly good photography doesn't just celebrate the already much celebrated; truly good photography offers new objects of potential celebration.
So now I will celebrate this Perpignan footbridge some more:
As I was photoing it, I was banging on to my companions about this footbridge and about footbridges like it, and they asked me if I was familiar with this London footbridge. Oh yes.
Thanks to that little spot of googling, I just came across, for the first time, this bridge blog. Do you want to meet bridges in your area? That seems like a good place to look.
I keep wanting to write about music, but (a) it isn't easy, unless both you and your readers know all the technical terms of your preferred sort of music. And (b) whereas words go fine with music, words about music, especially if they are attempting to be descriptive of a particular piece of music, can be devilishly hard to contrive in a way that is comprehensible without being banal and superficial and generalised.
A specialist blog or website devoted to a particular sort of music, with musical illustrations supplied to click on rather than only descriptive verbiage, whose writer(s) and readers are united by their taste in that particular sort of music, that makes perfect sense to me. I don't read any such blogs, but it makes sense. I do read old school paper magazines (I see that there is a new one of those out that I've not yet seen) exactly like this. But a blog about other things which from time to time goes musical, not so much. I have no problem at all with my favourite bloggers (6k and Mick Hartley spring to mind) doing postings every so often about music that they happen particularly to like. Their gaffs, their rules. But I mostly skip such postings. I possess a lifetime and more of music in the form of a vast CD collection that I already want to listen to.
So, I do not wish myself merely to do postings about bits of music that I happen to like, hoping - implicitly or explicitly - that others will be infected with my tastes. I love Western classical music more than life itself, often a lot more. But most people don't these days, and that's fine with me. If I thought that western classical music was about to be completely expunged from the earth any time soon, I might feel differently about trying to infect others with the love of it, but it isn't. Meanwhile, this music is, for me, mostly a personal thing. It is not an evangelical religion. If I meet a fellow devotee, we exchange enthusiastic exclamations of love for this or that piece or performance, but I mostly refrain from inflicting such True Believer talk on non-believers.
I am evangelical and anti-evangelical about some things. If you are not a libertarian, I want that to change. You should become a libertarian forthwith. If you are a Muslim, I want you to know, now, that I think you should stop being a Muslim, now. But if you hate Beethoven and adore hip-hop, that's fine with me, so long as you have no plans forcibly to stop me listening to Beethoven or to force me to listen to hip-hop. If you merely want me to adore hip-hop, or even to stop adoring Beethoven, again, fine. Just so long as you don't recommend the use of sticks or stones to make those points. Insofar as you do, then shame on you. But exactly the same point applies to people who force Beethoven upon those who resist Beethoven's charms. I am evangelical about that sort of behaviour also. Are you threatening others with Beethoven? Stop doing that, now. Do you favour such behaviour by others. Don't even think that.
However, more general postings about music (this one being an example) about the different ways we listen to it and enjoy it, how love of music spreads or should spread (that is what this posting has partly been about), about how those who contrive it contrive it, and so on, of the sort that all music lovers can read and tune into, even as they are hearing in their own heads quite distinct musical illustrations concerning whatever is being said, that makes more sense to me, and - memo to self - I want to do more of such postings here.
Blogging, as I just was, about assemblages of London's Big Things, here is another such assemblage, albeit quite a small one, which has been staring me in the face for weeks, but which I only just properly noticed:
This is to be seen at Guido Fawkes, whenever, as you can see, London's Mayoral election is being blogged about. Very horizontalised, so no big blogging deal.

Earlier this year, students from Esperance Primary School sent their Olympic-themed artwork to London, hoping it could be used as part of the London Games.
However, they have been shocked to learn that not only have their pieces been used in the athletes' village, they also received rave reviews from one of the Australian rowers.
Lightweight rower Hannah Every-Hall emailed the school last week to say students Robbie Davies and Lisa Warne's artwork was put up in her bedroom in the athletes' village.
"I am writing to thank your students for the wonderful artwork that is displayed proudly on the walls of our bedroom and corridors of the athletes' village," Ms Every-Hall wrote in her email. It was just so incredibly welcoming and warming walking into the village with pictures drawn by your students on the walls of Australian landscapes.
"So I just wanted to write a quick note to thank you all for your work.
"It has not gone unnoticed and it is incredibly appreciated."

Gwar — Gor Gor lyrics
Gor-Gor... Gor-Gor comes and sirens wail Thunderous gnashing firestorm Mournful drone of babbling fail Flames illuminate his form Gor-Gor comes and you must die Swats F-16s from the sky Fall worship tyrant king, you Gor-Gor! Sow pestilent hate It shall obliterate Admit you crave the gift he brings you The shadows of your long dead brothers And all the mutilated others Who died in waves, uniform To appease your bloodied hulking form To make the planet earth errata Who broke through layers of moletn strata Take the chuld in champing jaws Gor-Gor big! A pulping pile of frothing flaws This horrid mass shall give us pause At putrid rot fills gaping maws Gor-Gor! Skulls are smashed and bones are bending Groveling, sniveling, driveling horde Before you jump into his gizzard Joints are popping, our claws are rending To worship scaly overlord Apocalypse becomes creation Gor-Gor shall erase the nation Fall and worship tyrant lizard Gor-Gor comes and you must die Admit you crave the gift he brings you He swats the stealth down from the sky Fall and worship tyrant king you Gor-Gor!

My husband had been wanting to get me a bike for sometime and we had done our research and narrowed it down to a Linus bike. Wanting to actually see, feel and ride the bike we headed to a few stores to find the Linus and get recommendations. The best experience we had was at Just Ride LA. We walked in and were immediately greated by friendly staff. Juan helped us and walked us through their inventory, which did not include Linus but when I told him I was interested in a specific model he looked it up and showed me similar store model which I rode. I tried a few models and liked the Momentum but my desire to ride the Linus bike nagged at me…Jazmin C.

E-passport to premiere in January, government says
Mustaqim Adamrah
The Jakarta Post
Indonesians will have two passport options starting in January of next year – the existing passport and a new version with a chip that contains the passport holder's information.
The passport with the chip, dubbed the e-passport, will be mandatory by 2015 as required by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) following its implementation in a number of ICAO member countries for security reasons, a government official says.
Indonesia is one of 190 ICAO member countries.
A spokesman from the Justice and Human Rights Ministry's directorate general for immigration, Maroloan Baringbing, said Wednesday the chip in the e-passport would provide more security than the current passport, preventing people from using forged passports or visas and committing transnational crimes.
All the e-passport holder's information will be kept in the chip and a barcode on the data page, Maroloan said.
"The electronic passports will have chips embedded in the front or back cover or the center page. [The chip] will be covered with layers to protect it," he said.
"For the time being, not everyone is required to get an e-passport, but they will when the system is fully operational by 2015."
Baringbang said the ministry would officially launch the e-passport on Jan. 26, 2010, in conjunction with the immigration office's anniversary. Immigration offices in Central Jakarta, West Jakarta and the Soekarno-Hatta International Airport would then begin implementing the new passport system.
Initially, the ministry will issue 20,000 48-page e-passports for a trial period in 2011 in order to evaluate its operation, and would later issue 24-page e-passports, he said.
Despite the trial project in the three immigration offices, he said offices already have an e-passport system in place at 43 immigration checkpoints, including a number of major air and seaports.
According to a 2009 government regulation, for an Indonesian citizen, a 48-page e-passport costs Rp 600,000 (US$66.6) and a 24-page e-passport is Rp 350,000.
A regular 24-page passport costs Rp 50,000 and a regular 48-page passport is Rp 200,000, the regulation stipulates.
All types of passports will be valid for five years.
Baringbing said there would be additional costs of Rp 55,000 for biometrics and Rp 15,000 for fingerprints, regardless of the type or the amount of pages in the passport.
However, Pramono, an official at the ministry's equipment bureau, said they required Rp 184,000 to produce one e-passport book.
In this year's state budget, the ministry's secretariat general allocated Rp 216 billion for 3 million regular passports and Rp 3.5 billion to issue 16,000 blank e-passports, Pramono said.
He said in 2011 the ministry's secretariat general set aside Rp 150 billion for 3 million regular passports, but had yet to allocate a budget for the 20,000 planned e-passports.
The immigration office would also contribute to the cost of regular passports from its 2011 budget, he added.
The ministry set aside Rp 11.5 billion for a system to support e-passport applications, Pramono said.

Help Wanted: UGA Rebuilds Offensive Line
Georgia has gone through seven practices this spring in preparation for the 2014 season. One major spot on the field that is getting tons of looks is the offensive line.
The Bulldogs graduated three members of last year's offensive line. Left tackle Kenarious Gates, left guard Dallas Lee and right guard Chris Burnette are out of eligibility, and it's time for younger players to step forward.
After talking with offensive line coach Will Friend, it seems that he's only concerned with two spots on the line, both on the interior.
"Nobody's stepped up and said they want to be the guard yet," Friend said. "We're not performing the way we need to inside right now."
After the first scrimmage of the spring, Friend did like the play of third-year sophomore Greg Pyke. The 6-foot-6, 326-pound guard out of Baltimore has been getting most of his looks at the right side of the line. The left guard spot is a little more up in the air for the Bulldogs. However, help could be on the way: Junior offensive tackle Zach DeBell is getting snaps with the first team at left guard.
"I think he has a better chance to contribute there and play," Friend said. "He had a good day last Thursday and then in the scrimmage he struggled there on some things."
In addition to working as a backup tackle, senior Mark Beard has also taken reps at left guard. If you'll remember, Beard almost transferred this offseason before having a change of heart at the last minute. Sophomore guard Brandon Kublanow also has practiced inside, but has been dealing with an unknown injury limiting him to non-contact drills.
Friend is happy with his tackle positions right now and the work he's getting out of that group. Junior John Theus is getting first-team reps at left tackle, while senior Kolton Houston is at the right tackle spot. As with most position battles in the spring, it could be subject to change.
"Probably when it gets down to it, we'll probably have to have three (tackles) that can go into the game," Friend said. "Somebody is a swing guy (and) they're both (Theus and Houston) going to work both sides."
Entering the spring with Theus at left tackle wasn't an agonizing decision for Friend.
"(Theus) looked like he felt more comfortable over there doing things and Kolton looked like he felt more comfortable doing things on the other side," Friend said. "I don't claim to be the smartest guy, they look comfortable where they're at, so I said let's just leave them there and that's how it happened."
Right now, Beard and junior Xzavier Ward are the front-runners for the "swing" tackle spot. Senior tackle Watts Dantzler is also trying to make a surge for playing time. However, he is dealing with the effects of a concussion.
Friend said the key for Theus was taking part in the offseason workouts and practices right now after missing tons of time last year.
One thing that Friend has going for him is the return of David Andrews at center. Andrews will enter this season as the three-year starter and signal caller for the Bulldogs offensive line.
"The center ties everybody together," Friend said. "He's got the front side and the backside, he's got to put them all together. So a guy that's played a lot and is intelligent that can do that is important."
Even with all of these players getting good reps on the field during the spring, the fact remains that three starters are no longer with the program. Plus, Houston and Theus divided time at right tackle in 2013. The latter guy ended up taking the job. However, he's now shifting over to play left tackle. So as it stands now, the Bulldogs would be starting only one offensive lineman with full-time starting experience.
Georgia opens the season at home against Clemson and then hits the road for South Carolina in week two. Good news for them, there's no longer a guy on the Gamecocks defensive line wearing No. 7 and wrecking quarterbacks.
Success of any football team begins up front, and Georgia must find solid play from some off its new starters.

Sun October 30 Sellersville, PA Sellersville Theater 1894
Their latest release,
"Sha Na Na Greaser High School Hop," features 25 signature songs
perfect for an instant high school hop dance party.
"The Bop,"
"The Twist," "The Stroll," "The Hand Jive," "The Monkey," "The
Jerk," "The Cha Cha" and even "The Hokey Pokey" are amongst the
great dances of the 50s and 60s celebrated by Sha Na Na in this

1969 combined their love for the classics of Rock & Roll with a dynamic
theatrical approach. The fifties music legends appeared just before Jimi
Hendrix 44 years ago this summer at The Woodstock Festival in their eighth
professional gig, (of course the check bounced). They had four seasons of
their own worldwide television series, The Sha Na Na Show, and are
now set to celebrate the 35th anniversary of the movie Grease in which
they co-starred along with John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John.

The producer service sector in Italy: Long-term growth and its local determinants
This paper analyses the local determinants of producer service growth in Italy, focusing on agglomeration economies, and taking into account the particular features of this sector with respect to manufacturing. Using an OECD classification, we estimate a dynamic specification allowing for transitory dynamics around the long-run employment path derived from a model in which both demand and supply factors are considered. Compared with the prevailing modelling approach, the spatial scope of externalities is extended to include possible interactions across different urban areas. Our main findings are the following. Long-run employment growth is positively affected by Marshall-Arrow-Romer externalities, with a minor role played by urbanization externalities, a result similar to that obtained by more recent research on the Italian manufacturing sector and its industrial districts. Among the remaining supply factors, human capital exerts a positive influence on the long-run employment level in producer services industry; among demand factors, the size of the local market appears to be important, given the still incomplete tradability of service output. Significant interactions across urban areas are shown to occur; in particular, positive knowledge externalities on local productivity appear to be induced by location in urban areas contiguous to cities specializing in producer services.

Thousands of Arkansas military civilian employees are playing the waiting game as the Department of Defense reviews proposed furlough exemptions.
Tuesday would have been the deadline to send out notices for furloughs to start April 26.
Approximately 3,800 Arkansas military civilian employees could be affected by the furloughs, a part of sequestration.
The DoD issued a two week delay of those furlough notices, but according to a spokesperson, the notices are expected to be sent out on April 5.
The DoD is currently going through proposed furlough exemptions.
"It just doesn't seem real at this moment," said Raquel Yates, a pharmacy technician at the Little Rock Air Force base, "But I'm hoping and praying for the best."
The furloughs will not only affect those taking home the paychecks; they will also affect their communities.
They will affect the entire community, like No Name Deli in Jacksonville.
For seven years, owner Suhad Filat has spent most every day cooking for her customers.
Most know her by name and most work down the street at LRAFB.
Yates is one of her regular customers.
"Until we started having meetings and briefings, that's when it really started to hit home," Yates said.
Yates is one of 650 civilian employees at LRAFB facing the possible furloughs.
According to Arlo Taylor, LRAFB spokesperson, the approximately 650 civilian base employees are tentatively preparing for 22 days of unpaid leave through September, which amounts to a 20% pay cut.
"I kind of estimated $500 a month," Yates said. "So that's a car payment or a rent."
She and many others will also likely cut back on extra expenses like eating meals out, spreading the furlough effects to local businesses.
"Some days I worry I'm not going to be able to pay my rent," Filat said.
The military services and defensive agencies have submitted their proposed furlough exemptions which are currently under review.

Social Science Research Methods (Social Work) (MSc/PgDip)
1 year (full-time) / 3 years (part-time) / n/a (distance / e-Learning)
The information below relates to the Social Work pathway of the MSc/PgDip Social Science Research Methods programme.
Special Features of the Social Work pathway
Postgraduate social work students are supervised by academic staff that have extensive experience of funded research for research councils, local and national government and voluntary sector bodies, as well as experience of research collaboration with local and national social welfare organisations and excellent links with local and national policy-makers and practitioners. These staff members are actively involved in disseminating social work research via publications in books, academic and practitioner journals and presentations to conferences.
The Social Work pathway through the Social Research Methods MSc is suitable for two groups of people:
- Those people, especially social work practitioners, who want to develop their understanding of and skills in social work research
- Those planning to undertake a PhD on a social work topic
Testimonials of Social Work pathway graduates
"The SSRM at Cardiff is a comprehensive course designed to support students into the next stage of their research career. As a student going on to do my PhD I found it offered a balanced approach to research in the social sciences with emphasis on the importance of both qualitative and quantitative methods. The academic staff here are approachable, supportive and responsive to student concerns and the resources available to post graduate students at Cardiff are excellent."
SSRM graduate (Social Work pathway) more student views
Description of the Social Work pathway
Students will be expected to join one or more of the research groups in the School according to their research interests (childhood; crime and justice; health and society; risk, interaction and organisation; and sexualities and gender). This provides the opportunity to make connections with academics and other post graduate research students. Students will also be invited to attend the social work guest lecture series and occasional social work seminars and conferences offered by the School.
For the taught component, students will be required to complete six 20-credit modules (5 core research modules and 1 pathway module).
In all modules students have the opportunity to engage with literature and research relevant to their Pathway (Social Work).
|Social Work Module
|Advanced Social Work Practice 1 or 2
Autumn term (weekend module)
|Foundations in Social Research
|Autumn term: The module introduces philosophical/theoretical concepts alongside practical issues of research method choice and design.
|Qualitative Research Methods
|Autumn & Spring: This main aim of the module is to provide knowledge, training and practice in the collection, analysis and representation of qualitative data.
|Quantitative Research Methods
|Autumn & Spring: This module introduces students to the systematic collection and analysis of quantitative data, including a broad range of commonly used statistical techniques.
|Research Applications
|Spring term: This module critically explores the various applications of research to different settings. Students tailor their learning by selecting from a menu of options.
|Core Competencies for Postgraduate Social Scientists
|Autumn & Spring: This module introduces students to essential postgraduate social science survival skills. The module ends with an end-of-year Student Conference.
The dissertation in the Social Work pathway
On successful completion of the taught component, students prepare a dissertation (of a maximum 20,000 words) to be submitted by mid-September. The 60-credit dissertation component requires independent study. Dissertation topics are chosen by the students in agreement with their supervisors.
Recent SSRM Social Work thesis titles include:
- The co-ordination of multi-agency resettlement strategies For young people leaving secure accommodation

Adam Gemili's odds of taking home his first senior title were 25-1 with bookmakers prior to the start of the first day of athletics action here; he is now 5-1 after setting the quickest time of 10.15 seconds in the men's 100 metres.
In some ways the action on track was muted. This was supposedly the night of the Mo Show but instead the Londoner was a no show, illness ruling Mo Farah out of part one of an attempted Commonwealth Games double in the 5,000m. Usain Bolt had also at one time been expected to feel the full force of the Hampden roar but a foot injury meant he was unable to qualify via his national trials.
Instead, Gemili was the star attraction from a home nations perspective, although the cold and windy conditions – in stark contrast to the Games weather to date – played their part in producing slow times across the board.
"I think I'm going to have to break 10 seconds to get a gold medal, these guys are running really fast," he said. "I'm loving it and I'm very lucky to come to a place like this."

Competition is likely to come from Trinidad & Tobago's Richard Thompson, on paper the fastest man in the field with a season's best of 9.82sec, his countryman Keston Bledman, and the Jamaican trio of Nickel Ashmeade, Kemar Bailey-Cole and Jason Livermore.
To aspire to a first senior title, Gemili needs to improve, according to the former Olympic 200m and 400m champion Michael Johnson, a long-time admirer of the 20-year-old but a harsh critic after his opening run of the Commonwealth Games. "I wasn't that excited by Gemili's performance," said Johnson. "What has impressed me so much over the last couple of years is his technique and he looked a little light there. He hasn't run in a while and he's been through a coaching change, so that may have something to do with it."
Gemili has switched coach to Steve Fudge, who also works with James Dasaolu, and recorded a personal best of 10.04sec earlier this month in Mannheim, Germany, hinting that he is on the cusp of going under that all-important time barrier.
Of his chances of going sub-10sec in Glasgow, Gemili said: "If it happens, it would be awesome to do it in front of a British crowd. That would be unbelievable. I believe I can definitely do it at some point. If it doesn't happen here, hopefully I have a long enough career that I am able to go forward and do that."
British sprinting has been enjoying a rich vein of form this season but, while all six of England's challengers booked their place in the semi-finals, all were some way short of their best.
Richard Kilty and Harry Aikines-Aryeetey ensured they will run again with second and third respectively in their heats. Kilty, the world indoor 60m champion who has struggled to translate that indoor form to outdoors, afterwards dedicated his qualification and Games campaign as a whole to his friend David Zikhali, a 20-year-old who drowned in an accident in the River Tees last Monday.
Kilty has been helping via an online donation page to help raise funds for a funeral for his friend, originally from Zimbabwe, who is thought to have got into difficulty when trying to swim across the river with friends last Monday evening.
"It's a very sad loss, he was a great lad and I would just like to say this season is dedicated to him," said Kilty. "David was the most loving guy you will ever meet. He's always laughing, he's always joking. He's loved by everyone across Stockton."
The English trio of Sophie Papps, who was only announced as a late replacement for Ashleigh Nelson in the individual event in the morning, Asha Philip and Bianca Williams gained automatic qualification in the women's 100m.
Williams, second behind Jamaica's Kerron Stewart in 11.35sec, showed glimpses of a return to her early season form. "I've been struggling for my past two races with the bad weather and little niggles but this is my senior debut, I saw the crowd and I thought, 'I can do this'," she said.
The trio's medal hopes were lifted last night when favourite Michelle-Lee Ahye, of Trinidad & Tobago, withdrew from the Games after pulling a hamstring.
Legally blind 100m runner Jason Smyth, competing for Northern Ireland against able-bodied athletes, took to the start line but failed to qualify for the next day's racing.
But the biggest cheer of the night was for the last man across the line in the final race, Rosefelo Siosi, of the Solomon Islands, greeted two and a half minutes behind the penultimate finisher in the 5,000m as if he were Bolt or Farah.Reuse content
