...most abundant forms of unused energy in the environment is the vibrations that are a by-product of motion. Think of the rumblings of a bridge in heavy traffic or even the pulse of a dance floor. That's essentially free movement, and scientists can transform that micromotion into electricity in a number of ways. One should be familiar from high school physics class. A magnet hooked up to be sensitive to vibrations wobbles inside a copper coil, generating a current through electromagnetism. Steve Beeby, an engineer at the University of Southampton in Britain, created a vibration harvester that works...

He also travels with a bodyguard, Eli Israel, who emailed him from his station in Iraq and, Gravel says, was thrown in the brig for refusing to continue fighting until the Gravel campaign got him a lawyer. Israel usually makes up the entirety of his entourage. "You can pay someone $5,000 to get them rubbed out in South San Francisco," Gravel explains...
