About "DATA CENTER - A LOSING ECONOMIC PROPOSITION" topic:
There is one serious and important issue which have to be addressed.
Energy consumption and cooling requirements by today's data centers.
The data center industry is the fourth largest producer of carbon dioxide emissions, accounting for 3 percent of global pollution, according to the US Department of Energy (DEP). The DEP predicts that if the industry continues at its current pace, 14 new coal plants will need to be built by the year 2012 in order to support that growth.
"We really believe that as the data demands grow and computing power increases, data center infrastructure will have to become more energy efficient otherwise rising energy costs will make even the smallest data center a losing economic proposition."

It is imperative for us to realize the POWER held in our words! When we state something, we are DECLARING it to the Universe, empowering our words by the time spent in saying them as well as through the energy we use to convey them and any emotion or passion we direct as we state them. How often do we use words that are “contractions”? Have you ever pondered that perhaps these shortened words diminish the fact that we are stating things through means of NEGATIVE energy rather than POSITIVE? When we omit words such as “can’t” and”won’t”, even other words such as “if” from our daily speaking, we replace them with more affirming words such as CAN and WILL and WHEN….making these much more empowering to us and conveying a more positive energy and higher energy vibration. We also need to heed caution in how we declaring things or as I say CLAIM or OWN things such as illness or afflictions or disease. Try to state that we feel better or have more energy than we did as opposed to falling...

There are some "Blind Spots", the personality traits which are obstacles to become a good leader. These are the bad habits we have, due to the lack of self-awareness or reluctant to improve. These are- Blind ambition- Has to win or "right" at all costs; competes instead of cooperates; exaggerates his/her own value and contribution; is boastful and arrogant; sees people in black-and-white terms as allies or enemies. Unrealistic goals- Sets overly ambitious, unattainable goals for the group or organisation; is unrealistic about what it takes to get jobs done. Relentless striving- Compulsively hardworking at the expense of all else in life; runs on empty; is vulnerable to bunout. Drives others- Pushes other people too hard, burning them out; micromanages and takes over instead of delegating; comes actoss as abrasive or ruthless and insensitive to the emotional harm to others. Power hungry- Seeks power fot his/her own interests, rather than the organisation's; pushes a personal agenda...

In today's news, I came across this article that scientists at Sandia National Labs who were seeking a means to create cheap and abundant hydrogen to power a hydrogen economy, realized they could use the same technology to "reverse-combust" CO2 back into fuel. They still have to improve the efficiency of the system, but they recently demonstrated a working prototype of their "Sunshine to Petrol" converting waste CO2 to carbon monoxide, and then syngas, consuming nothing but solar energy. The device, boasting the simple title Counter-Rotating-Ring Receiver Reactor Recuperator (CR5) sets off a thermo-chemical reaction by exposing an iron-rich composite to concentrated solar heat. The composite sheds an oxygen molecule when heated and gets one back as it cools, and therein lies the fuel. The cylindrical metal CR5 is divided into hot and cold chambers. Solar energy heats the hot chamber to a scorching 2,700 degrees, which forces the iron oxide composite to lose oxygen atoms. The...
