========================================================== This is a one time mailing. You will be automatically removed from this list. ========================================================== Effective web site promotion is an essential part of just about any successful Internet marketing program. Search engine submission is the most effective and inexpensive way to advertise your web site on the Internet. We will submit your web site URL to 450+ search engines and directories once a month for an entire year. This includes all the major search engines and directories. Many other submission services you find on the Internet just submit your site URL one time at a much higher cost. One site URL submission is not as effective because of the constant changing of search engine placement strategy and the enormous growth of the Internet. We are submitting your site 12 different times. That is over 5000 site submissions for $99! But that's not all! Search engine submission is worthless if your site isn't "search engine ready". In addition to this comprehensive submission service, a web design/marketing specialist will inspect the design of your web site and give you a detailed report of his findings and suggestions to help you get a higher placement in the search engines and directories. Keyword rich meta tags are essential to get your site a high placement in most of the major search engines. We will custom create your meta tags if your site needs them at no extra cost. You will also get feedback on any content or HTML additions that might prove beneficial to search engine placement. This service alone is worth much more then $99! Many of those other companies don't even know what your web pages look like and charge you twice the price! Once you sign up to promote your site you will be entitled to the following special web promotion services. Web Page Design: $35.00 hr ($10 off regular rate) Submit 2nd URL: $75.00 ($24 off regular price) Site Inspections: FREE! Meta Tag Generation: FREE! Web Promotion Monthly Tips & Tricks: FREE! ==================================================== To order the submission service just print out this order form, complete the order form, and send it with your check, money order, or Visa & MasterCard information. If you would like to order online, reply to this message with "ORDER" in the subject line and you will get another email directing you to our Online Secure Order Form.

Re: Oh, a warning about playing with glass & charge.... (fwd)
by Jim Choate 17 Dec '03

Forwarded message: > Date: Sun, 22 Nov 1998 10:05:41 -0800 > From: Tim May <tcmay(a)got.net> > Subject: Re: Oh, a warning about playing with glass & charge.... > And when you do your "...and then take away one of the copper plates" > experiment, you'll find that force is needed. Force times distance is > energy. The energy to pull one of the plates away equals the 0.5CV^2 energy > no longer stored in the capacitor. This is true ONLY if the dielectric doesn't touch either plate and is simply used to increase the storage capability (via Gauss' Law) of the capacitor over an air gap type of the same physical structure. The reason you have this force is the induced charge on the surface of the dielectric and the electrostatic attraction this causes with the charge on the plate. If the plate ACTUALY TOUCHES there is NO INDUCED CHARGE via Gauss's Law, it's a REAL charge stored on the surface of the insulating dielectric and the plate remains NEUTRALY charged. Why is there no induced charged? Because as you place charge on the conducting plate it induces a charge via Gauss' Law on the dielctric. Since the metal has outer orbital electrons available (which an insulator doesn't) the charge in the plate gets transported to the surface of the insulator and bonds there (remember unlike charges attract) with the induced charge. Why does the charge storage increase because of the dielectric? The electrical moment of the atoms is greater than that of the air. This is another reason the charge once deposited on the dielectric surface will stay there when the plate is removed. If you go back and look at the examples in your physics books that your basing your position on you'll find that in EVERY case there is an air gap between the plates and the dielectric. Remove the air gap and the behaviour of the charge and hence it's explanation changes accordingly. > The energy stored is not stored either on the plate or on the insulator. It > is in the electric field. Q: Where does the electric field come from Tim? A: The charges (ie electrons and protons) that are sitting on the surface of the dielectric (where the di- comes from). The electric field strength is a measure of the wavelength of the photons those two contrary sets of particles are bouncing back and forth between themselves. Q: Explain why the charge sitting on the surface of that dielectric will stay on the metal plate when the metal plate is removed. The metal plate is a conductor so as it is removed it effectively carries the charge of the part of the dielectric that it still retains contact with. Why would that e- choose to move TOWARD a ne- charge when it's sitting there with an opposite charge already in a minimum energy configuration? A: It won't. To do so violates the minimal energy requirements of the system as well as the standard behaviour of charges (ie like repel, opposite attract). Another experiment.... Try removing the metal foil when there is a charge and when there isn't. You won't find an appreciable difference. As to the energy required to remove the foil, yes force times distance is energy and it's the energy requisite to overcome the inertia of the metal foil. There is also a small additional force caused by Gauss' Law because the the distance between the e- (for example) stored on the dielectric and the metal plate will form a 'virtual' charge on the surface of the plate. However, since the plate itself is neutral (by definition) there will be a contrary charge on the opposite side. Hence, you won't loose a single coulomb of charge to the metal plate. You can check this by using either an electronic charge meter (1-800-OMEGA if you're interested) or you can use a gold leaf electrometer. If the charge varies as Tim claims then the angle between the leaves should change (ie get smaller). It won't. As to the force, the maximal force will occur when the plate is removed as a single piece perpendicular to the surface of the dielectric. If you roll or peel it off it will for all intents and purposes come free effortlessy because you won't have to fight the electrostatic force. -------------------------------------- < Cu + ------------------------------------------ -------------------------------------- < Cu - ------------------------------------------ -------------------------------------- < Cu + ------------------------------------------ -------------------------------------- < Cu - NOTE: there is NO air gap between the glass and the Cu sheeting. I use normal old cinter blocks to press them together as tightly as I can. Another experinment: Build the stack as shown above and remove each later one at at time with and without charge. Note the behaviour of the metal plate. It will tend to go with the glass plate that is being removed. Because of induced charges via Gauss' Law the foil will tend to go with the glass plate as it's removed. --------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------- Cu + --------------------------------------------- As the top plate is removed the air gap will force a virtual charge to build up on the surface of the foil. As a consequence an opposite and equal charge will build up on the other side of the foil and it will be + and in opposition to the + charge already sitting on the bottem glass plate. The induced charge on the top of the Cu will be - and will be attracted to the + charge on the bottem of the top plate. This of course assumes you're using very thin foil. If it's very thick at all you won't see this because of gravity. I tend to use very heavy foil so that I don't get shocks from these various induced fields when I'm handling the plates. Be sure to use heavy rubber gloves. Rubbermaid kitchen gloves intended for industrial washing are sufficient unless you're going to use a high voltage and charge.

I'm sorry if this is gnawing at old bones for you, but I recently heard from a rather paranoid, anonymous source here in Hungay that PGP was compromised, Zimmermann sold out to the Feds, all versions except possibly early DOS versions of PGP have back doors in them. He is also claiming that the CIA have already provided the backdoor-key to PGP 5.0 to the Hungarian Secret Services. Is he being too paranoid, or what? The reason I am asking cypherpunks, which I realise is not really a list dedicated to PGP, about them, is that their credentials to my mind would be sufficient to discredit. I have heard this rumour in sufficiently bogus intellectual contexts before (Cyberconf8, if that rings a bell to anyone - wouldn't blame you if it didn't) where it seemed blatantly obvious that it was entirely unfounded, as the people who were spreading it could not recognise code if they saw it, and seemed only an attempt to appear to be in the know. This source, however, seems different. Can I have some reassurance, please? And could you possibly suggest how someone unable to check the code themselves could go about authenticating a version of PGP? It is fated to become a rather important issue here soon. thank you holist
