Dear CCL'ers,

I'm a graduate student majoring in computational chemistry. I'm using
the DeFT program to calculate properties of some molecular systems.

I've compiled the DeFT in both SGI and PC-LINUX boxes and tested with
a simple di-water system. Surprisingly, I've found the energy of the
system increases during the optimization process. I included my input
file in this mail, and the bases I used were copied from DGauss basis
sets in OSC. 

The input file is:
H2o-H2o
zmat ang
    h
    o  1 0.9758
    h  2 0.9898  1  105.1993

According to Levine's Quantum Chemistry (4th edn p.357):
  The [LCAO] trial function [for H2] was first used by Finkelstein and=20
Horowitz in 1928. Unfortunately he does not give a journal reference.

Chemistry Journal to Launch on Internet

The first issue of the Internet Journal of Chemistry (IJC) will be 
published on the Internet on 1 January 1998.

Aimed at encouraging global interaction within the chemical community, 
IJC will present the latest chemical research findings alongside 
development of chemical Internet resources.

Coverage will include the latest research in all disciplines of 
chemistry; developments of Internet resources specifically for 
chemists; plus reviews of the most relevant chemistry WWW sites.  
With publication not limited to page space, IJC will also encourage 
interactive comment and debate on published papers using electronic 
resources.

Benefits for readers of IJC are multifold: 

	Publication on the Internet permits colour graphics, video 
	and animation, chemical structures and data that is not normally 
	associated with print products.  This includes interactive tools 
	enabling the readers to manipulate structures and data.

	Papers featured in IJC will be peer-reviewed and will be published 
	on the Internet as they are accepted, aiming to bring the article 
	to the reader as quickly as possible.  

	All articles will be available in HTML and the Journal will also 
	provide long-term archive retrieval opportunities, both on the 
	Internet and by alternative means, such as CD-ROM.

	First year subscriptions to IJC will be free of charge. Thereafter 
	competitive annual subscription rates will be charged.

Published by Infotrust, Ltd., IJC's Editor, Steven Bachrach comments

  "The principal aim of The Internet Journal of Chemistry is to provide
an 
electronic venue for the communication of current chemical research,
with 
enabling tools that allow for presentation of information that cannot be 
distributed in print.  In addition, IJC will encourage the development
of 
Internet resources for chemists.  This includes news of Internet
databases 
and tools; new software for handling Internet data; visualization tools
and 
the like.

  "IJC is a fully electronic Journal, committed to the electronic
medium.  
As such, IJC will feature "living documents" - an interactive service
for 
readers and contributors alike which will encourage comment.  Readers
will 
be able to customize the look-and-feel of the Journal, allowing each 
readers to view articles in an environment most suited to themselves."

Subject:  Computer Software for Review

     As the Software Review Editor for the ACS Journal of
Chemical Information and Computer Science (JCICS) I often get
software for review in the journal.   I have one (1) new software
products. I am looking for someone who is  willing to review
this software product.  In return for the review which is
published in JCICS you get to keep the software/database.  The
review should be completed in 1-3 months.  The length of the
review is 4-10 double spaced typed pages.  Sample reviews can be
found in most of the recent issues of JCICS.

     Please try to give me some (short) reason to choose you over
another person. 

     I have tried this approach for about the past four years and
it is working reasonably well. (REMINDER: For those who haven't
finished your reviews of software sent months and months ago,
this last sentence does not apply to you!)  As a result, I am
continuing this new method to find reviewers using this e-
mail/user group system.  I reserve the right to abandon this if
it is a problem, or inappropriate.  I will not notify people if I
have found a reviewer.  If you don't hear from me within a few
days I have chosen someone else to review the particular package.

     As I get many, many, (too many) replies to this message,
please do not respond after 19 September 1997 (Friday), as I am
sure the software will be gone by then.

     I can be reached on Internet (SRHELLER@GIG.USDA.GOV).

     PLEASE BE SURE TO INCLUDE AN STREET ADDRESS, PHONE, and FAX
NUMBER!!!  (I send the software by Federal Express.)  Without
this information I WILL NOT consider your request.


     Steve Heller


The package I now have is:


1. Specialty Chemicals Electronic Source Book from Synapse Information 
Resources.  It is a PC based CD-ROM database of over 7,4000 chemical 
monographs, 
16,500 synonyms, 42,000 trade names, & 4,000 chemical manufacturers.

               The 1998 Charleston Conference
  Innovative Techniques for New Lead Discovery and Development

                     March 9-11, 1998
                    Wild Dunes Resort
              Isle of Palms, South Carolina

At one time, pharmaceutical scientists studied the function and structure
of a novel biological target and spent years identifying and optimizing a
lead candidate.  Over the past few years, competitive pressures have forced
research to become more efficient.  Emerging new technologies such as
genomics, gene sequencing, transgenic animals, and molecular biology have
afforded large numbers of novel, clinically relevant biological targets.
High throughput screening and combinatorial chemistry have been used to
rapidly identify and optimize leads for these targets.  Additionally, the
complementary techniques of computational chemistry and cheminformatics
have been used to successfully leverage research information.

The invited lectures and round-table discussions to be held over two and
one-half days will focus on the successful integration of these
technologies in new lead discovery and development.  Participants will
explore the ways in which the industry is increasing the productivity of
the discovery process.  The outstanding group of invited session chairs and
speakers who will lead the meeting are listed below.
