Go Certify – Jun 22, 2007
With David Klein’s rganic Chemistry as a Second Language: Translating the Basic Concepts you’ll be able to better understand fundamental principles solve problems and focus on what you need to know to succeed. Here’s how you can get a better grade in rganic Chemistry: Understand the Big Picture. rganic Chemistry as a Second Language points out the major principles in rganic Chemistry and explains why they are relevant to the rest of the course. By putting these principles together you’ll have a coherent framework that will help you better understand your textbook.

Better living through ‘green’ chemistry
scidev.net – Jun 22, 2007
cfm –>Better living through ‘green’ chemistrySource: Science22 June 2007 |EN|. Green chemistry is the design of environmentally sustainable chemicals and manufacturing processes in particular renewable raw materials and environmentally friendly solvents to replace petroleum-based products. The field is ideal for empowering African scientists as it combines the pursuit of new science with sustainable technologies appropriate to the community. In Ethiopia chemists are extracting essential oils from plants used in traditional medicine and high-performance starches from locally produced raw materials such as biomass. In the last four years scientists at Addis Ababa University in Ethiopia have established themselves internationally in the field utilising links with Western universities and academic societies and free access to scientific literature.

Walling an accomplished organic chemist expert in free-radical chemistry and former editor-in-chief of the Journal of the American Chemical Society (JACS) died on June 18. Walling played a key role in the growth and development of chemistry at the University of Utah retiring from there as a distinguished professor emeritus of chemistry. “Walling was one of the grand old men of chemistry with a wry wit and an affable disposition” notes Peter B. Armentrout Utah’s current chemistry chair. Born in Evanston Ill.

RSC Journals … the best just keep getting better
Chemistry World – Jun 22, 2007
the best just keep getting better22 June 2007RSC Publishing is celebrating news of continued success for its journals following the release of the 2006 impact factors calculated by ISI®. Journals from across the collection in areas of research such as analytical materials and green chemistry have recorded significant rises to become leading impact journals in their field while new interdisciplinary titles have received their first official ranking of the internationally recognised publishing industry metric. “‘We are delighted to see that RSC Journals have had an impressive average rise in impact factor of 10% for the third consecutive year’” – Robert Parker managing director RSC PublishingAmong the headline success stories is Green Chemistry the only journal publishing a mix of primary and secondary research in the field which sees its impact factor rise by a staggering 29% to 4. The already impressive impact factor for Lab on a Chip has increased by a further 10% to 5. 82 ensuring that it remains one of the leading journals in micro- and nano- research.
Turnover in game’s final seconds costly to Storm
Seattle Post Intelligencer – Jun 22, 2007
“Chemistry’s not our problem” Bird said. “We have a great time together on and off the court. I don’t think it’s chemistry. We’ve been trying to pinpoint the reason. We’re just not playing well right now. And some of it I think is we expect so much from ourselves that lately when we haven’t been playing well we kind of put our heads down and collectively give up in a way. That’s the one thing about tonight; we didn’t give up.
