   Extractions: Welcome to State of Entropy Webgraphics. I designed this site to makelife easier for people putting together their own personal homepages. Hereyou'll learn how to make your own webgraphics using the powerful and inexpensivegraphics program called Paint Shop Pro. All of the original graphics onthis site were prepared using this amazing program. Paint Shop Pro is currentlyin Version 7.04, and has more features than ever, including some greatnew photo enhancement tools. You can download a 30 day Trial versionof this program at the homepage of JascSoftware This site contains tutorials for PSP 4, 5, 6, and 7 as well as presetsand tutorials for the BladePro plugin. The PSP 5 tutorials are fairly compatible with PSP 6, andany necessary adjustments have been noted in the text. The old PSP 4 tutorials,however, have been completely updated where possible, and are listed withthose for PSP 5. For those of you still using PSP 4, the originalversions are still available below. The Blade Pro tutorials have been designedand written for use with PSP 5 and 6. I hope to update all of my tutorialsto PSP 7 as soon as possible.

   Extractions: ENTROPY and the Second Law of Thermodynamics! Entropy and the second law of thermodynamics The second law of thermodynamics is a tendency Obstructions to the secondlaw make life possible The second law of thermodynamics and evolution Entropy and Gibbs free energy, D G = D H -T D S These are five big ideas involving the second law of thermo. Questions about them came from readers of http://www.secondlaw.com However, that Web site already has so many pages that this new site was written. Unfortunately, many Internet sites in thermodynamics aren't useful: excerpts from university catalogs listing class hours and exam times, bunches of slides with no discussion. For education, an hour of studying any first-year college chemistry text (or physical chemistry text for more advanced students) is worth at least ten hours spent on the Internet in trying to learn more about thermodynamics. The Internet is useful in thermo primarily for fast access to technical data banks or to professional special topics and interest groups, not for basic education. Frank L. Lambert

   Extractions: In all of physics, there is perhaps no topic more underrated and misunderstood than entropy. The behavior of large collections of particles, such as the universe, a grain of sand, or a tuna salad sandwich, is dictated by two universal laws: one involving energy, the other involving entropy. And yet, while energy is described in great detail throughout any introductory physics textbook, entropy is relegated to about two or three pages, and is usually badly described. Well, no more! Here's the real story of physics. Here's what really drives the universe. Here's what your physics instructor won't tell you. Here's entropy Other pages on entropy and the second law Here's another cool page about entropy! While the page you're looking at focuses on the microscopic details of entropy, here's one that focuses on the large scale effects of the second law. The author of this page was apparently coerced by an instructor to create a web site on entropy. The site includes both a discussion of entropy, and a list of other entropy links Here's a somewhat more advanced introduction to entropy.

   Extractions: 2834 Lewis Dr., La Verne, CA 91750 The order of presentation in this article is unusual; its conclusion is first. This is done because the title entails text and lecture examples so familiar to all teachers that most may find a preliminary discussion redundant. Conclusion The dealer shuffling cards in Monte Carlo or Las Vegas, the professor who mixes the papers and books on a desk, the student who tosses clothing about his or her room, the fuel for the huge cranes and trucks that would be necessary to move the nonbonded stones of the Great Pyramid of Cheops all across Egypteach undergoes physical, thermodynamic entropy increase in these specific processes. The thermodynamic entropy change from human-defined order to disorder in the giant Egyptian stones themselves, in the clothing and books in a room or papers on a desk, and in the millions of cards in the world's casinos is precisely the same: Zero. K. G. Denbigh succinctly summarizes the case against identifying changes in position in one macro object or in a group with physical entropy change (

7. ENTROPY AND THE SECOND LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS
   ALL ABOUT entropy, THE LAWS OF THERMODYNAMICS, AND ORDER FROM DISORDER  
   http://www.entropylaw.com/
   
   Extractions: The law of entropy , or the second law of thermodynamics , along with the first law of thermodynamics comprise the most fundamental laws of physics. Entropy (the subject of the second law) and energy (the subject of the first law) and their relationship are fundamental to an understanding not just of physics, but to life (biology, evolutionary theory, ecology) cognition (psychology) . According to the old view, the second law was viewed as a 'law of disorder'. The major revolution in the last decade is the understanding with an expanded view of thermodynamics, that the spontaneous production of order from disorder is the expected consequence of basic laws . This site provides basic texts, articles, links, and references that take the reader from the classical views of thermodynamics in simple terms, to today's new and richer understanding.

Mail orders for the whole issue of the "Infinite Energy Magazine" are US $ 5.95 only (including postage). Please read an article by D.P. Sheehan et. al. ( "Steady-State Work by an Asymmetrically Inelastic Gravitator in a Gas: A Second Law Paradox" ) on a related Second Law violation (also based on the effect of gravity on a gas). That article was published in Foundations of Physics, Vol. 30. No. 8 (2000), pp. 1227-1256. You might want to take a look at Mr. R. Graeff's page in which he discloses details on his ongoing experiments on the gradation of temperature in well-insulated columns of gas subject to earth's gravity.

    Extractions: January's end, and the cyclical futility of the season(2" snow, partial melting, 2" more, and again, and again. Never more than 2" of dirty snow present; a limited equilibrium of wintry generation and decay) matches the perceived futility of the polity that I can't seem to shake from my equally cyclical, increasingly recursive mind. I need to strike out in a new direction of some sort. I must find a way to re-stock the wellsprings of imagination, against the cruel, singular internal logic of the times, season, mind. There's a part of me that would much rather be doing the latter, though, and it's becoming increasingly insistent, in the form of nagging self-doubt about the validity, originality, and interest to others of anything I've been writing for some months now. I believe what I'm saying to be important, but I also believe that just about anyone, given a dose of the sober objectivity and common sense that I tend towards, would likely say the same kind of things and respond similarly to these conditions.
