      Rothenberg, Sandra; Scully, Maureen (Stanford Social Innovation Review, 2007)
      Responsible Wealth, a Boston-based nonprofit, is convincing many affluent Americans to challenge the very rules that made them rich. Far from mere check writers or "limousine liberals," these wealthy activists work against ...
    • Catalysis and regulation: Proteins 

      Murray-Rust, Judith; Chalton, David; Craig, Paul (Elsevier: Current Opinion in Structural Biology, 2001-12-01)

    • The Catalyzed addition of acetic acid to norbornadiene 

      Cristol, Stanley; Morrill, Terence; Sanchez, Robert (The American Chemical Society: The Journal of Organic Chemistry, 1966-09-12)
      An investigation of the acid-catalyzed addition of acetic acid to norbornadiene (I)to form ezo-dehydronorbornyl acetate (II) and nortricyclyl acetate (III) has been carried out. Catalysis by sodium perchlorate was similar ...
    • Cathode-ray-tube to reflection-print matching under mixed chromatic adaptation using RLAB
