TODAY'S TOP STORY
_________________

The UPS Goes Round and Round
James Gaskin, ITworld.com

Green is the goal of data centers today, and few things store and
deliver energy more greenly than a flywheel. That's right, start the
flywheel spinning, and when you need electricity, the spinning heavy
metal flywheel provides it. The spinning flywheel rotating inside
specifically positioned magnets turns kinetic energy (rotation) into
electrical energy through electromagnetic induction. That's the promise
from ActivePower (.com), a company selling flywheel power conditioning
and power backup systems to data centers.
