Communication is a crucial part and, often, a thorny problem of organizational life. In the modernday organization, individuals must exchange information continuously and rapidly throughout the chain of command, whether to offer evaluation, direction or control. No more is this true, then for the rapidly growing and evolving domain of IT governance. Unfortunately, communication failures between business and IT management continue to be an all too familiar sight. Whilst knowledge of this communication challenge has emerged, less attention has been devoted to identifying and understanding the underlining barriers, possible problems and causes of business/IT communication failure. This paper contributes to the above-mentioned concern by arguing that the domain of cybernetics may hold promise for understanding the underlining problems of the challenge. In particular, the concepts of transduction and pacing, could offer practical insight towards the creation of strategies or approaches for its resolution.

“…These ridges may be structurally linked for they both lie above a seismically active zone which dips westwards from the Tongan Trench to below the Lau Group (Gutenberg and Richter, 1941). Geological descriptions of the Tonga-Lau region by Ladd andHoffmeister (1945), Hoffmeister (1932) and others (see Schofield, 1967b), show that minor Eocene rhyolites within the eastern Tongan Islands were followed by pre-Miocene andesites throughout the whole area .. In post-Miocene times volcanism of the Lau Group in the west changed to olivine basalt but instead of rhyolites being developed in the east as within the Auckland Arc, the Tongan eruptions have continued to be andesitic up to the present day.…”

Regional aspects of cainozoic volcanology in the north island of New Zealand— crustal fusion produces intermediate magma

Early Tertiary crustal melting produced a primary magma of intermediate acidity that underlay, and possibly still underlies in a partly molteo condition, the Auckland Arc. Growth of the magma finally resulted in mid-Tertiary tensional collapse of the overlying crust inducing block faultmg and widespread andesitic eruptions. There then followed pronounced differentiation within the westward-dippmg magma chamber so that later Plio-Quaternary eruptions were mainly basaltic in the west and rhyolitic in the east.

“…This is relevant not only in the case of single perpetrator rapes but also in gang rape situations (4) where the DNA results from penile swabs or other intimate samples from suspects may be informative as to the order of the assaults. Discussions of secondary DNA transfer have partly focused on the possible adverse effects on forensic DNA analysis (5,6), though it could not be proved under experimental conditions (5). In the context of rape, secondary DNA transfer is of potential evidentiary value and has to be considered such.…”

This paper reports a case of rape in which the forensic DNA analysis of a penile swab revealed a DNA mixture in the epithelial fraction consistent with the complainant and suspect, as well as the detection of spermatozoa from a second male in the sperm fraction. SUbsequently the semen present on the penile swab was shown to match the DNA profile of the complainant's boyfriend. By considering the DNA results obtained in both the female and male fractions, the Court concluded that the suspect had sexual intercourse with the complainant and was guilty of rape.The case illustrates that secondary DNA transfer, i.e. the passing of DNA through an intermediary, can be important in solving crime. RESUME Dans cet article, I'analyse genetique d'un ecouvillon penlen d'une cause de viol a revele la presence d'un profil genetique d'origine mixte dans la fraction epitheliale compatible avec la plaignante et le suspect ainsi que la presence d'un deuxlerne male dans la fraction spermatique. Des nouvelles analyses ont demontre que le profil genetique obtenu du sperme sur I'ecouvillon penlen correspondait acelui du petit ami de la plaignante. En se basant sur les resultats des analyses genetiques, la Cour a conclu que le suspect avait eu une relation sexuelle avec la plaignante et etait coupable de viol. Cette cause iIIustre que le transfert secondaire d' ADN (i.e. transfert de I'ADN par un lntermedlalre) peut etre un facteur important pour resoudre un crime.
