[phenixbb] Refinement

Hi Nigel

I was referring to the partial charge in the restraint file, which IMHO
should be translated to the model.

I have a second problem - I'm using the cif file for refinement but the
angles and bond lengths still get distorted. These are flagged as outliers
in phenix.refine. Why is it not using the values that I input? My
resolution is 3.8 A, but I still end up with positive density around all
the hemes. In fact, the problems with hemes are the cause of a large
majority of my outliers. I did a parallel refinement with and without the
restraint file - it doesn't make any difference.
