Market research firm Infonetics Research released preliminary results for the application delivery controller (ADC) and wide area network (WAN) optimization markets from its 3rd quarter 2012 (3Q12) Data Center Network Equipment report. (Full report published December 7.)
"While ADCs and WAN optimization appliances posted modest revenue gains in the 3rd quarter, the pace of growth in these segments decelerated year-over-year," notes Sam Barnett, directing analyst for data center and cloud at Infonetics Research. "Top-line revenue growth in the ADC market is slowing due to the lower ASPs associated with virtual solutions versus their hardware-based counterparts, and saturation at the high end of the WAN optimization market is pressuring near-term growth."
"That said," Barnett adds, "We believe this will change as more virtualized solutions enter the mainstream, helping to restore higher levels of overall growth to the WAN optimization and application delivery controllers markets."
- Worldwide ADC revenue rose 5% in 3Q12 from 2Q12, but year-over-year (YoY) growth decelerated again and now stands at +6%, falling from +27% YoY growth in 3Q11
- F5 continues to lead the pack in ADCs, capturing nearly half of 3Q12 revenue; Citrix and Cisco round out the top 3 market share slots
- Cisco recently announced its intention to exit the ADC market, presenting an opportunity for F5 and Citrix to grow market share going forward
- WAN optimization revenue grew 3% sequentially in 3Q12, but is down 4% from the year-ago 3rd quarter
- Perennial leader Riverbed again dominated the WAN optimization segment in 3Q12, with almost 3/5 market share; Cisco remains solidly in 2nd place
Infonetics' quarterly data center network equipment report provides worldwide and regional market size, vendor market share, forecasts, analysis, and trends for data center Ethernet switches (general purpose, purpose-built, and blade switches), ADCs, and WAN optimization appliances. Companies tracked include Alcatel-Lucent, Blue Coat, Brocade, Cisco, Citrix, Dell, F5, HP, IBM (BNT), Juniper, Radware, Riverbed, and others.

This invention relates to electrochemical sensor instrumentation and more particularly to instrumentation of the type which includes ion selective electrodes.
Analysis systems employing ion selective electrochemical electrodes are useful for measurement of concentration of ions of hydrogen, sodium, potassium, and the like. Such analysis systems may be used, for example, to measure particular constituents of a blood sample (whole blood, blood serum, or plasma) and provide diagnostic information on metabolic disturbances, assist in control of life support devices or evaluate the effectiveness of therapeutic measures. In such systems, the sample to be analyzed is drawn or injected into an analysis chamber for exposure to an ion selective membrane (of glass or plastic material, for example) and the magnitude of the electrical potential developed at the sample-membrane interface (which is related to the ionic concentration of the constituent of interest in the sample being analyzed) is measured. Various techniques have been proposed for testing such electrodes to determine whether the ion selective membrane is damaged or whether the output impedance of the electrode has drifted out of specification; such techniques including circuits in which unidirectional test currents are passed through the membrane, and circuits which use an AC current to monitor the impedance of the electrode.
In accordance with the invention there is provided an electrochemical sensor system that includes a high impedance ion selective electrode and an improved electrode test circuit with an isolation capacitor connected between the output signal lead from the ion selective electrode and a test voltage terminal. A monitoring circuit is connected to respond to the output signal from the electrode. The isolation capacitor is a high quality capacitor and provides a shunt impedance that is much higher than the maximum electrode impedance; its impedance preferably being at least one hundred gigaohms. Teflon and polystyrene type capacitors are suitable. A voltage transition at the test voltage terminal is coupled by the isolation capacitor to the output lead and the resulting decay rate of the voltage transition on the output lead is monitored to provide an indication of the quality of the electrode.
The invention allows testing of the ion selective electrode with test circuitry that is isolated from the measurement circuit by the isolation capacitor. The voltage transition (preferably a step transition) may be obtained with the use of an inexpensive switch, in contrast with high impedance low leakage switches used in prior art systems where the bulk resistance of an ion selective electrode membrane was measured by passing a test current through the membrane.
In a particular embodiment, the system includes sodium and potassium sensing electrodes, each of which has a nominal impedance of over five hundred megohms, and a reference electrode assembly. Similar test circuits are associated with the sodium and potassium electrodes and each test circuit includes a test voltage source in the form of a voltage divider and an FET switch which shunts a portion of the voltage divider in an arrangement in which operation of the switch is effective to apply a step voltage to the isolation capacitor. The system also includes control circuitry which operates the switch and monitors the resulting change in output voltage on the electrode output line. That output voltage decays at a rate that is a function of the value of the isolation capacitor and the resistance of the ion-selective electrode and is appropriately monitored, for example, by sampling at periodic intervals or by periodic comparisons of that voltage with a threshold value. In a particular embodiment, a positive 45 millivolt step is applied to the isolation capacitor and the resulting voltage is sampled ten milliseconds and one second after the step voltage is applied to determine whether the electrode is within lower and upper specification limits.
The invention provides reliable electrochemical sensor system monitoring circuitry in simple, inexpensive, and reliable arrangements. Other features and advantages of the invention will be seen as the following description of a particular embodiment progresses, in conjunction with the drawing, in which:
FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of an electrochemical sensor system in accordance with the invention; and
FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating change in output voltage in response to application of a positive step voltage to the isolation capacitor of the test circuit.
The analysis system shown in FIG. 1 includes a sample flow line 10 that extends through potassium sensing electrode system 12, sodium sensing electrode system 14, and reference electrode system 16 to outlet 18. Details of electrode systems 12, 14, and 16 may be had with reference to copending application Ser. No. 175,053 filed Aug. 4, 1980, entitled Analysis System, which application is assigned to the same assignee as this application and is hereby incorporated herein by reference. Each electrode system 12, 14, and 16 has an output over a corresponding line 20, 22, 24 to a corresponding shielded plug connector 26. A buffer amplifier 30 is connected to the output of each electrode via plug connection 26 and resistor 28. Each buffer amplifier circuit includes a feedback resistor 32 and a drive connection 34 to the shield 36 of each plug connection 26 to limit the effect of shield capacitance.
Connected to the outputs of potassium electrode and reference electrode buffer amplifiers 30 is a differential amplifier 40 which provides an output over line 42 through multiplexer 44 and A-D convertor 46 to microprocessor 50 which responds to that output to produce on digital display 52 an indication of the potassium value being measured by electrode 12. A similar differential amplifier circuit 48 has inputs from sodium electrode and reference electrode buffer amplifiers 30 and provides an output on line 54 to microprocessor 50 which similarly provides an indication of the measured sodium value on display 56.
Connected to the output signal line 20 from the potassium electrode 12 (between plug connection 26 and resistor 28) is a test circuit that includes a high quality 0.01 microfarad polystyrene isolation capacitor 60 (500 gigaohm shunt impedance) that has one terminal connected to the output signal line at junction 62 and its other terminal connected to junction 64 of a voltage divider network that includes resistors 66 and 68. Also connected to junction 64 is a normally closed FET switch 70 that has a control input over line 72 from microprocessor 50. A similar test circuit is connected to output signal line 22 of sodium electrode 14 at junction 74 and its switch 70 is similarly controlled in response to a signal on line 76 from microprocessor 50.
When it is desired to test the potassium electrode 12 (which includes an ion selective membrane of synthetic polymeric material), microprocessor 50 generates a signal on line 72 to open switch 70, producing a 45 millivolt voltage step 80 (FIG. 2) which is applied through isolation capacitor 60 to junction 62. In this embodiment, the minimum acceptable resistance of potassium electrode 12 is one megohm and its maximum acceptable resistance is 800 megohms. The lower and upper specification limits, in terms of the test voltage step 80, are indicated at 82 and 84 respectively in FIG. 2. With the application of the step voltage 80 of known value, a voltage change appears on line 20 which decays exponentially as indicated at 86 in FIG. 2. Microprocessor 50 samples the change in voltage on line 42, ten milliseconds and one second after switch 70 is opened. In this embodiment, if the electrode resistance is one megohm, the voltage on line 20 would decay as indicated at 82 in FIG. 2, and will be 16.5 millivolts ten milliseconds after switch 70 is opened (time 88). Should the voltage at that time be less than 16.5 millivolts, the resistance of the potassium electrode system is less than the predetermined minimum value for an intact electrode system, and microprocessor 50 generates an output indicating a defective electrode. Similarly, if the electrode system has a much higher resistance, the exponential decay will be much slower, as indicated at line 84. Microprocessor 50 also samples line 20 one second after switch 70 is opened (time 90). If the voltage at that time exceeds 39.7 millivolts, electrode system 12 has a resistance in excess of 800 megohms, and microprocessor 50 indicates that the electrode system 12 has a resistance greater than the predetermined maximum value.
Microprocessor 50 periodically opens switch 70 to test potassium electrode. Between testing intervals, constituent measurements by the potassium electrode are processed and results are generated on display 52.
Sodium electrode 14, which employs a glass membrane, is similarly tested in response to a signal from microprocessor on line 76 and sampling of the resulting voltage on line 54. In a particular embodiment, the sodium electrode has a minimum resistance of one megohm (corresponding to a voltage of +16.5 millivolts ten milliseconds after its switch 70 is open) and a maximum resistance of 700 megohms (corresponding to a voltage of 39 millivolts one second after its switch 70 is opened).
The procedures described above as being executed by microprocessor 50 can of course be executed by other types of controllers with the voltage on the output line 42 (54) being appropriately continuously monitored or sampled at periodic or at chosen intervals after application of the step voltage 80 to the test junction 62 (74). The exponential decay rate of the voltage on the output line 20 (22) is a function of the value of the high quality isolation capacitance 60 and the resistance of the electrode 12 (14). The resulting rate of exponential decay of the output voltage indicates whether the output impedance of the electrode under test is within predetermined limits, as indicated by the shaded area of FIG. 2.
While a particular embodiment of the invention has been shown and described, various modifications thereof will be apparent to those skilled in the art, and therefore it is not intended that the invention be limited to the disclosed embodiment or to details thereof and departures may be made therefrom within the spirit and scope of the invention.

Decimation Lyrics
Artist: Manilla Road
Album: Atlantis Rising
Out of the eye of the sea
Bringing his demon army
Elder god of blasphemy
Devouring the witch of the sea
Breaking the spell of binding
Death to Atlantis' queen
Dark winged minions of hell
Brought forth to poison the well
Silencing Poseidon's bells
Armies of Atland are felled
Trition defending the well
Falls to Cthulu's black spell
Scorching the earth
Taking of life
Turning it into disease
Unholy birth
Nature defiled
Mankind is brought to its kness
Now Midgard bleeds
Cthulu's eyes
Face of annihilation
Return of the old one
The god of decimation

British Pop Star's Vibrator Goes Off While Checking Bags at MIA
We're not totally aware of who British pop star Tulisa Contostavlos is, but she experienced possibly the most embarrassing incident yesterday while checking her bags at Miami International Airport. Her vibrator began buzzing inside her suitcase, and a friendly airport worker offered to turn it off for her.
Tulisa Contostavlos, better known as simply Tulisa, is something like the Nicole Scherzinger of Britain. She was in some forgettable pop group (in her case, N-Dubz -- a kind of Pussycat Dolls, hip-hop-influenced outfit) but is now concentrating on her judging duties on the original edition of Britain's X Factor. Apparently, she just fights with Kelly Rowland all the time. (Yes, that's what post-Destiny's Child Kelly Rowland has been up to.)
Because we end up browsing through just about every news article with the word Miami in it, we've been aware all week of Tulisa's South Beach vacation. Nothing that exciting happened until she got to the airport.
No, her iPhone wasn't going off, and she later confirmed it was indeed something a lil' freaky.

Johannesburg - Television presenter and businessman Vuyo Mbuli has allegedly reneged on an agreement to pay the Matlosana City Council, in North West, a share of revenue from a billboard he managed, The Times reported on Monday.
Mbuli, his wife Savita, and their company Zazise Communications were ordered by the High Court in Pretoria in March to give a full account of the income derived from the billboard since November 2006.
On Friday, the council asked the court to declare Mbuli and his company in contempt of court for failing to comply with the order.
Order for his imprisonment
The municipality reportedly intended seeking leave to apply for an order for his imprisonment should he fail to comply.
The council claimed Mbuli, a presenter of SABC2's Morning Live breakfast show, had agreed to pay it 20% of the income from billboards erected on municipal ground in Klerksdorp from February 2006.
It claimed Zazise had not paid the municipality since November 2006. The court ruled in the council's favour by default, because Mbuli did not file opposing papers in March.
According to the newspaper, the municipality said Mbuli promised it a potential R12 000 a month.
Mbuli told The Times he was aware of the litigation, but preferred not to comment. Savita Mbuli said she was no longer involved with the company.
The case was postponed to 30 July.

It is one of 64 stamps in the well-received Great Americans Series, released to honor important individuals who were leaders in the fields of art, civil and human rights, education, literature and the military.Learn more about Stamps
The U.S. Postal Service began issuing the H-rate make-up stamp, with a one-cent value, in November 1998 in anticipation of the postage increase that took place in January 1999. The Postal Service required the addition of a make-up stamp to the previously issued 32-cent first-class letter stamp to send a letter.Full Answer >

The Treskilling Yellow is a Swedish postage stamp that, as of 2014, recorded the highest value at auction of any stamp. In 1855, Sweden accidentally printed its 3-skilling stamp with yellow ink rather than the correct green color. Only one copy of the stamp is known to exist.Full Answer >


text: acidsega Alex Frog Valley I got involved in electronic music around '99. As an incoditional free party assistant I started loving the underground rave kind of sound, far from comercial bullshit. On those days bcn soundsystems like Tasmaniac, Insomnis, Acidosis, Acid Rain, Victimas del Tekno, Havin' It & High Voltage were a a big influence for me. Some of 'em were techno oriented but I was really in the acid sound that was coming over from London. Tasmaniac was the first bcn recordshop to bring all that music, acid labels like Smitten, Stay Up Forever, Routemaster, Bionic Orange, Infected... I was so excited with the scene that I decided to open a website called http://ir-a.net/teknivals. I used to put all the info related with this great scene. You could find Art, Djs biographies, Party pics, Music and lots of links to underground related sites. The website was the first spanish site rave oriented. After 2-3 years the scene became very big and I decided to stop the info about free parties because I then thought it was spoiling the scene because people who went there weren't respecting the job done by soundsystems.. I closed the site in 2003. At begining of 2003 I bought my own Dj equipment and started buying records. My style has been polished and nowdays I mix a variety of techno, hard techno to acid getting the thing moving on! ;)) This is how Teknivals Crew was born. A full on acid techno soundsystem that tries to maintain a good vibe always. We make family parties because rave scene over here is a little bit spoiled (due to massification). Some people have lost respect to things: nature, people, even to themselves! We bought a new domain some time ago to start building our new site http://www.teknivalscrew.org but things got slow (design, production, etc.) and it will not be any soon we'll have it running up. Please be patient. ;) Users who follow acidsega Northumbria G-rEJ Greg Gore bedfordshire TeKnO_GaScHtZ T Peschi Räschen, Germany Fil_Devious Phil Jones North Wales PROPER AcidTechno Peppe Mennillo Naples, Italy RAZZARO Granada, Spain Justin Paton Justin Paton London user29322497 IN-PATIENT RECORDINGS Carol Tekk 23 (Tribe Disco 23) Poland

A_A totally semantics. To me, muppets are the annoying ones on the muppet show. My mom used to make me watch that and Seasame St. when I was a kid and I hated it and I would tell her but she didn't care. I had nightmares about the two grumpy old men for a year when I was little. Fraggles came out when I was a tween. They weren't scary like the Muppet Show muppets were.
