Transparency for Results: Testing a Model of Performance Management in Open Government Initiatives

Government transparency continues to challenge existing frameworks for understanding organizational performance. Transparency has proven difficult to measure and results assessing its impacts are mixed. This article sets forward a model of performance-based accountability in open government initiatives. Data come from the Open Government Partnership’s (OGP) database of over 1,000 transparency initiatives across 50 countries in 2013. Ordered logistic regression estimates the effect of management practices on three different measures of transparency performance, and the results broadly support the model. Expert interviews from two country cases offer insight into how performance management is used in the context of transparency reforms.

An evaluation of measurement uncertainty of trajectory angles using a 3D laser scanner

Measuring trajectory angles of bullet defects at a crime scene is an important part of crime scene investigation as these angles can be used for shooting incident reconstructions. The Washington State Patrol Crime Scene Response Team (WSP CSRT) had a desire to report and use measured trajectory angles. To report quantitative measurements, a statement of uncertainty for the measurement must also be reported due to an accreditation requirement through the ANSI National Accreditation Board (ANAB), through which the WSP CSRT is accredited. This evaluation examined the measurement uncertainty of the 3D laser scanning method that the WSP CSRT utilizes for measuring the vertical and azimuth angles from trajectory rods fitted to bullet defects. Three studies were performed which examined the variation of vertical and azimuth angle measurements from trajectory rods on flat surfaces, the variation of azimuth angle measurements from a trajectory rod on a curved surface, and a traceability study with known vertical and azimuth angle measurements. Seven common substrates were selected as target materials and were shot with 9 mm Luger and 0.45 Auto caliber bullets. A vehicle with one bullet defect was utilized for the curved surface study. The WSP's current fleet of Trimble X7 3D laser scanners, the WSP Criminal Investigation Division (CID) Detectives who operate these scanners, and the Forensic Scientists responsible for trajectory rod placement and angle measurements were utilized. An overall measurement uncertainty of +/− 2.6 degrees at an approximate 95% confidence interval was determined for all trajectory angles measured from trajectory rods.     

提高马克思主义理论接受效果的策略

提高马克思主义理论接受效果是推进马克思主义大众化的重要环节。提高马克思主义理论接受效果应从以下四个方面着手：一是向传播者提出更高的要求，要求传播者具备一定的权威性和专业性、公正性和公信力，能够创造良好的沟通氛围，平等真诚地进行对话和交流；二是把内在需要和外部动力结合起来调动接受对象接受马克思主义的积极性；三是利用人际传播、大众传媒、网络平台等途径传播马克思主义；四是创设接受环境，扩大传播范围。

大学生创业过程若干问题评析——以扎根基层创业为例

创业是带动大学生就业的主要形式。大学生在创业过程的不同阶段所面临的中心任务不相同,在创业机会的识别阶段,主要是挖掘和选择商机;在创业机会的开发阶段,主要是快速获取和整合开发创业的机会所需要的相关资源,使资源与商机相协调;在创业成果的积累阶段,创业者主要是建立运作高效的创业团队,合理配置相关资源,以实现商机、资源与团队三个创业内核的动态平衡。     

故意伤害致死案件的因果关系认定

故意伤害罪是一种典型的结果加重犯，故意伤害致死案件的因果关系具有客观性、法律性和直接性等特征。在司法实践中，应查明被害人受侵害前的原始状况，被害人死亡的直接原因，侵害行为的性质与程度和有无消极因素的介入，以科学认定故意伤害致死案件的因果关系。     

浅谈劳动竞赛与技术创新

新形势下,劳动竞赛应该注意的问题是:如何深化活动内涵,提高劳动竞赛含金量;结合企业生产实际,加大技术创新投入,营造创新环境;强化竞赛中技术创新的地位,充分发挥技术创新作用。     

论注意规范保护目的理论的机能

客观归责理论是实质的构成要件理论,不允许性风险的实现原则是对构成要件结果的判断,因此,栖息于不允许性风险原则之下的注意规范保护目的理论机能亦是对构成要件结果的检验.过失犯的认定中,尤其像发案率较高的交通肇事罪,必须核实结果是否属于特定注意规范的保护目的之内的结果,以妥当认定相关犯罪.
