Credentials, establishing

The philosophical and conceptual ramifications of the nonequilibrium Second Law are very deep. Having established the credentials of the Law by the detailed analysis outlined earlier, it is worth considering some of these large-scale consequences. Whereas the equilibrium Second Law of Thermodynamics implies that order decreases over time, the nonequilibrium Second Law of Thermodynamics explains how it is possible that order can be induced and how it can increase over time. The question is of course of some relevance to the creation and evolution of life, society, and the environment. 

Ihde had published a number of historical papers in the late 1950s and early 1960s, but his The Development of Modern Chemistry (1964) firmly established his credentials as ah historian of chemistry. This 850-page volume remains the standard reference work on the history of modem chemistry and is an indispensable tool for students, teachers, and researchers. This book alone assures him a lasting place in the field of history of chemistry. 

The report should also establish the credentials of the validating team. 

Authors of the material. Can help to determine credibility of information. This information should be readily available, commonly contained in the About Us section of the site. Sites having a qualified staff generally make it known because it is to their advantage to state their credentials and establish credibility with the user. 

Thus the credentials of the drug, and by implication, others in the class of platinum group complexes, as an active anticancer agent in animals is well established. 

I believe that in altering the kettle story Watt Jr s main objective was to make a claim about his father s experimental (and therefore philosophical) approach to the improvement of the steam engine and, in particular, to assert his father s independence of Joseph Black in that regard. Of course, insofar as this established Watt s scientific credentials and capacities it did support his case in the water controversy in a general sense. However, in modifying the anecdote Watt Jr almost certainly had the propagation of ideas about the relationship between the kettle and the separate condenser in mind. 

More recently, elegant mechanistic studies on intramolecular Meer-wein reactions by Beckwith et al. considerably extended the utility of diazonium salts. They showed that many electron donors could convert an arenediazonium cation into an aryl radical which cyclized in good yield to form dihydrobenzofurans and indolines. The final radical was functionalized as a halide, sulfide, or ferrocene. Thus, the credentials of diazonium salts as electron acceptors were well established, and the stage was set to investigate the interaction between diazonium salts and TTF.

To provide assurance that the competencies, standards, and objectives on which the respective examinations are based remain current, NISPC has established a Standards Review Board. A Payers Advisory Panel has been established to provide recommendations related to the ambulatory care credentialing needs of firms paying for those primary health care services provided by pharmacists. NISPC is advised by a Standards Review Board and Payers Advisory Panel, which provide a broad coalition of... 

Establishment of an appropriate approach for pharmacists to indicate that they have satisfied NISPC credentialing requirements. 

The federal government has experimented with various models of pharmacist prescribing.The VA and the IHS appear to have the most liberal policies toward pharmacist prescribing.In the VA, clinical pharmacy specialists are required to have an advanced degree or have completed an accredited residency (e.g., an American Society of Health Systems Pharmacy, ASHP, accredited residency) or specialty board certification (e.g., a Board of Pharmaceutical Specialties, BPS, certification) before they may prescribe medications within their scope of practice. The scope of practice is established within the local VA facility. Once this criterion is satisfied, the clinical pharmacy specialist may function as an independent health care provider. In the IHS, pharmacists can be credentialed to provide primary care and use their prescriptive authority to evaluate and manage the care of certain patients. 

Similarly, ethos, the testimonial dependent on the expertise and credibility of the witness, is critical. Evidence supplied by an impartial and credentialed observer may establish compliance with control standard operating procedures (SOPs), accuracy of documentary evidence, and suitability of code design. Whereas the accuracy of logos transcends its interpretation, however, ethos proof must be evaluated on the basis of its source. Who said so , How does he or she know , and Why should he or she be trusted become the key questions. It is upon the importance of ethos that the important issues of independent, quality assurance (QA), and confirmatory investigation lay. Most ethos testimony takes the form of reports, observational records, and certifications.
