The certification business has grown enormously in the last ten years. The International Accreditation Forum (lAF) recorded 616 accredited certification bodies in January 1999. The experience of the vehicle manufacturers with ISO 9000 certification led them to question the wisdom of so many certification bodies chasing the same business in a competitive market. The results seemed to indicate that cost reductions by the certification bodies led to a decline in the quality of auditing and that was the opposite of what the vehicle manufacturers wanted. The vehicle manufacturers had not seen a significant rise in product quality as a result of ISO 9000 and they believed this was partially due to the quality of the accreditation and certification schemes being operated as well as inadequacies in the quality system standard. When the four national automotive schemes were launched, great emphasis was placed on regulating more closely the accreditation and certification schemes. From a customer perspective, the ISO 10011 scheme had some particular problems ... 

The thermochemical data for the chemical compounds that follow in this appendix are extracted directly from the JANAF tables [ JANAF thermochemical tables, 3rd Ed., Chase, M. W., Jr., Davies, C. A., Davies, J. R., Jr., Fulrip, D. J., McDonald, R. A., and Syverud, A. N.,./. Phys. Chem. Ref. Data 14, Suppl. 1 (1985)]. The compounds chosen from the numerous ones given are those believed to be most frequently used and those required to solve some of the problem sets given in Chapter 1. Since SI units have been used in the JANAF tables, these units were chosen as the standard throughout. Conversion to cgs units is readily accomplished by use of the conversion factors in this appendix (Table Al). Table A2 contains the thermochemical data. 

We don t have a grub problem, but the neighbors all do the grub treatment and chase them all over here. So, we kind of have to do it. 

Intermittently, media curiosity about my work at Edgewood kept alive my memories of the 1960s. In 1980, Sylvia Chase, a well-known interviewer for the weekly television show 20/20, called from New York. She wondered if I would mind being filmed while talking about my work with BZ. No problem we scheduled it for a Saturday morning in my Encino office.

The shift of the spectrum has been well discussed previously. The early pulse radiolysis data suggested that the kinetics at 1300 nm [28] matched the kinetics in the blue [16], which led to the description of the kinetics as a two-state problem. However, the results measured by Chase and Hunt, where the kinetics at 1050 nm were considerably slower than the kinetics at 500 and 1300 nm, suggested that the kinetics were more... 

The Problem Henry left for work at 7 a.m. and drove at an average speed of 45 mph. Unfortunately, he forgot to put some important papers in his briefcase. At 7 30, Betty found the papers, jumped in her car, and chased after Henry. She averaged 55 mph. How long did it take for Betty to catch up to... 

A note of serious interest. There is also an Interleukin-6. DO NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT IT It is used by AIDS patients as an immunocytochemical. This means it modulates an immune reaction to infection. It creates an inflammatory reaction and very high cortisol levels while suppressing IGF-1 and Androgen levels. So do not chase AIDS victims around asking for some. They have enough problems to deal with. 

Fig. 2. Eigenvalues of the hindered-rotational levels of the E e vibronic problem, reproduced from the work of Guha and Chase [1]. The broken line corresponds to the value of (3/a, which best fits the CaO Cu2+ data.

Recent experience in this laboratory has shown that such problems can be largely overcome by carrying out the elongation reaction and subsequent chase at 29°C rather than at room-temperature as previously described. 

Alan MacDiarmid (1927-2007) once said "Chemistry is about people" In this spirit, full names and birth and death dates are given to all the scientists quoted in this book such brief historical data may help illuminate how and when science was done. I have resisted mentioning who was a Nobel prize winner too many to list, and some worthy scientists—for example, Mendeleyeff, Eyring, Edison, Slater, and Tesla—were not honored. I owe a deep debt of gratitude to many people who have educated me over several decades, as live teachers and silent authors. In particular, I am indebted to Professor Willard Frank Libby (1908-1980), who taught us undergraduates at UCLA to love current research problems and led us into quite a few wild-goose chases Professor Harden Marsden McConnell (1927- ), who led us at Caltech and Stanford by example to see what are... 

Experimental investigations into the vibronic structure of copper(II) doped CaO (CaO Cu " ") and MgO (MgO Cu " "), constitute some of the most rigorous and instructive studies of Jahn-Teller active systems [26]. Foremost among these is the Raman study on CaO Cu by Guha and Chase [27]. The spectrum, shown in Fig. 9 below, displays a plethora of bands in the 3-250cm region that were assigned by the authors to transitions within hindered rotational levels, characteristic of the E 0 e vibronic problem, depicted in Fig. 10.
