There is an increasing awareness that policies do not succeed or fail on their own merits. Within complex messy systems, it unclear how best to ensure effective policy design and implementation. However, rather than just let drift into full even partial failure, governments are now beginning take interest in ways which the process – especially implementation phase can be strengthened supported. This article contributes debate three ways: by unpicking key factors behind failure; exploring...

We present comprehensive photometric and spectroscopic observations of the faint transient SN 2008S discovered in NGC 6946. exhibited slow evolution almost no spectral variability during first nine months, implying a high density CS medium. The light curve is similar shape to that 1998S 1979C, although significantly fainter at maximum light. Our quasi-bolometric lightcurve extends 300 days shows tail phase decay rate consistent with ^{56}Co. propose this evidence for an explosion formation...

Margaret Thatcher (1925–2013) was the United Kingdom's prime minister from 1979 to 1990. Her informal transatlantic alliance with U.S. President Ronald Reagan 1981 1989 played an important role in promotion of international neoliberal policy agenda that remains influential today. critique UK social democracy during 1970s and her adoption key strategies, such as financial deregulation, trade liberalization, privatization public goods services, were popularly labeled Thatcherism.

We present photometric and spectroscopic observations at optical near-infrared wavelengths of the nearby type Ic SN 2007gr. These represent most extensive data-set to date any supernova this sub-type, with frequent coverage from shortly after discovery more than one year post-explosion. deduce a rise time B-band maximum 11.5 \pm 2.7 days. find peak magnitude M_B=-16.8, light curves which are remarkably similar so-called 'hypernova' 2002ap. In contrast, spectra SNe 2007gr 2002ap show marked...

Population health interventions tend to lack links the emerging discourse on interactive knowledge production and exchange. This situation may limit both a better understanding of mechanisms that impact lifestyles development strategies for population level change. paper introduces an integrated approach based structure-agency theory in context 'social practice'. It investigates co-production active by groups, professionals, policymakers researchers. combines whole system with...
