Institutional tensions and private sector promotion in Tanzania: whose agenda?
Article Abstract:
A study seeks to analyze the significance of technological capabilities on Tanzania's present transition from state-led to market-led development. In particular, the study aims to uncover the various agenda and practices that Tanzania, its aid donors and its private sector are pursuing to promote the latter. However, technological and industrial effectiveness remains elusive for Tanzania as the state itself differs in opinion with the private sector and its aid donors regarding what is the right way forward for the country. Private sector promotion is also being undermined by the historical enmities and distrust that prevail between sections of the private sectors.

Grounds for signal referencing
Article Abstract:
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) and high inductive reactance has led to noise pollution, causing many electrical grounding systems in industrial facilities to be unreliable signal references. The situation has been made worse by the installation of local area networks that depend on inexpensive cabling to transmit high-speed information. Experts are most concerned about communication ground loops, which result in common-mode noise and EMI. As a solution, properly designed and installed isolated grounding receptacles should be utilized for grounding instead of metallic conduit. Grounding recommendations are discussed in detail.

When the sea dries up
Article Abstract:
Myron Scholes is an economist who has carried out work on liquidity risks following the problems of Long-Term Capital Management (LTCM), a fund that he was involved with. He has had to focus on liquidity risk since this problem affected LTCM, which had to be rescued by a number of banks. Scholes sees the way that large financial institutions manage risk as a factor affecting liquidity. Company could purchase protection against this type of risk, Scholes, argues.
