The crystallization of counter-enlightenment and philosophe identities: theological controversy and catholic enlightenment in pre-revolutionary France: RECENT works of modern French history have found it fashionable, when focusing on the eighteenth century from across the jagged shoals of nineteenth- and twentieth-century France, to reductively treat Francophone national identity as the dialogical interaction of two related "imagined communities."

A Role for Internal Water Molecules in Proton Affinity Changes in the Schiff Base and Asp85 for One-way Proton Transfer in Bacteriorhodopsin[dagger]: ABSTRACT Light-induced proton pumping in bacteriorhodospin is carried out through five proton transfer steps. We propose that the proton transfer to Asp85 from the Schiff base in the L-to-M transition is accompanied by the relocation of a water cluster on the cytoplasmic side of the Schiff base from a site...; Tags: A., Brown, C., D., E., F., Fig, G., H., J., L, L., M, M., Maeda Corp., N, N., P., S., Smith, T., W.; Research articles 2008-07-01
Cost-of-capital estimation and capital-budgeting practice in Australia: Abstract: We use a sample survey to analyse the capital-budgeting practices of Australian listed companies.
