Flexible, multi-terabit packet optical transport platform reduces OPEX/CAPEX and forms key building block for Coriant’s Dynamic Optical CloudTM solution.

Coriant today announced the availability of the mTera Universal Transport Platform, a powerful new addition to Coriant’s end-to-end portfolio of software-defined switching and transport solutions that span access, metro, regional and long haul (LH) networks. The innovative universal transport solution delivers industry-leading flexibility, density, scalability and resiliency, and enables network operators to address a broad range of packet optical transport applications, including metro-to-LH gateway applications and on-demand data center connectivity. The Coriant mTera platform is the first product to come to market since the merging of Coriant and Tellabs and combines the strengths of both market leaders – compact, simplified and efficient traffic grooming from Tellabs and industry-leading photonic-layer technology and system performance from Coriant. As an integral part of Coriant’s Dynamic Optical Cloud solution, the Coriant mTera platform provides enhanced service agility in an open network environment, while significantly reducing OPEX and CAPEX by enabling maximum utilization of each and every fiber, wavelength and router port in the network.

“Coriant has used its newly combined resources to build the mTera transport platform which is well defined with the right optical, OTN and Packet switching capabilities,” said Andrew Schmitt, Principal Analyst, Optical for Infonetics Research. “The platform is also designed with SDN in mind in order to meet the evolving requirements of an on-demand, elastic network.”

“Hypergrowth driven by mobility, video and cloud applications continues to drive the need for new and innovative infrastructure solutions,” said Pat DiPietro, Chief Executive Officer, Coriant. “We continue to make strategic investments in Coriant’s portfolio to ensure our customers have the tools necessary to adapt to these dynamic market changes. The addition of mTera to our product portfolio strengthens Coriant’s leadership in end-to-end packet optical networking while enabling service providers to cost-effectively meet the performance requirements of today’s demanding transport applications.”

Transport network flexibility and efficiency are critical requirements as new applications such as wide-area data center interconnect drive increased operational costs and complexity. The Coriant mTera platform has been specifically designed to address these and other dynamic, high-bandwidth applications with a compact and efficient architecture optimized for intra-metro or intra-regional traffic flows between metro/regional hubs or metro/regional data centers.

Key attributes of the mTera platform include:

  •     Density: Compact form factor which supports an extremely dense 7TB of switching capacity in half a rack; with two shelves supported per bay, this equates to 14TB of total switching capacity. It boasts 14 service slots and 6 switch fabric slots; the mTera will initially launch with 200G cards, with 500G cards scheduled for a future release.
  •     Flexibility and scalability: Innovative, multiservice switching architecture capable of supporting both OTN and L2 switching seamlessly across every card and every port on the platform. The full complement of ODUx switching including ODU-0 grooming with ODU-Flex, Carrier Ethernet and MPLS-TP ensures the most cost-effective and efficient grooming solution for packet and transparent services. All interface cards are designed using the latest in pluggable interface technology: SFP+ for 10G and CFP for 100G, including 100G coherent DWDM. All interfaces support a host of white light and DWDM options.
  •     Simplicity: Minimal set of highly flexible interface cards supported with unrestricted OTN and packet switching on every port. This simplifies ordering, sparing and deployment resulting in smoother, simpler and faster roll-outs for customers while minimizing the chances of error.
  •     Resiliency: High degree of restoration flexibility by providing restoration coordination across multiple layers. From a physical architecture perspective, this includes redundancy in the switching fabrics, interface modules, power supply and processors, and from the network perspective, the integration of ASON/GMPLS control plane and SDN functions for end-to-end, multilayer capabilities.

The mTera platform is currently available and in trials with customers.

Was it constitutional for Proposition 124 to replace PSPRS' permanent benefit increases with a capped 2% COLA?

In this blog I and multiple commenters have broached the subject of the suspect constitutionality of PSPRS' replacement of the old perma...

PSPRS members: Yes, Virginia, your pension can be cut

If you feel confident that your state constitution will protect your pension from being reduced, see this story by Nathan Bomey of the Detroit Free Press.  U.S. Bankruptcy Court Judge Steven Rhodes today ruled that Detroit's pensions have no special status in a municipal bankruptcy, in spite of a clause in the Michigan Constitution which forbids their diminishment or impairment.  Arizona has a similar clause in its Constitution.

Of course, there will be more legal wrangling, but this a very important precedent that will likely carry over state lines.

  1. CORP retirees haven't gotten a COLA increase in 2 or 3 years. With the stock market up as it is the investments must be making money, there must be funds going into the pension trust fund.

    1. Thank you for your comment. CORP, like PSPRS and EORP, was subject to the reforms put in place by SB 1609. The permanent benefit increase (aka COLA) is now subject to both a minimum funding ratio AND minimum rate of return for the past fiscal year.

      CORP, at 66.9% funded, is better funded than either PSPRS or EORP and meets the minimum funding ratio requirement (> 60%). The combined fund also earned 10.58% last fiscal year, which is just slightly over the 10.50% funding ratio threshold.

      However, as I read the regulations, only the portion over the 10.50% is eligible to be paid out as a COLA. This is .08% of excess earnings of only CORP's share of the investment pool. I do not know how this would translate into total dollar amounts or amounts per retiree.

      Please keep in mind that there is no longer a fund that holds excess investment returns and builds over time. This means COLA's will not be paid in any year the fund does not earn at least 10.50%.

      This could all change overnight, of course, depending on what the Arizona Supreme Court rules on current challenges to SB 1609. Those cases are still pending.

Is the Babadook a Metaphor for Maternal Depression?

If it’s in a word

Or if it’s in a look

You can’t get rid of the Babadook

                                                   – Book of “MISTER BABADOOK”

I have watched a lot of horror movies in my life. I started young, watching classics of the genre in my school days, often aided and abetted by assorted gangs of friends at birthday sleepovers. We would scare ourselves silly, then watch Disney films and sleep 10 to a room in an attempt to ward off nightmares. It was only on re-watching certain films as an adult though, that anything beyond the most literal interpretations started to make sense to me.

Since becoming a mental health professional, it’s perhaps natural that I’ve become more attuned to metaphorical depictions of mental health problems in the horror genre. Indeed, although horror films are often regarded as being of rather low cultural value, I’ve often found they depict complex ideas about psychological distress and mental health difficulties through the use of metaphors in a very accurate and non-stigmatising way. This contrasts starkly with the more literal, yet often more inaccurate, depictions of people with mental health problems in highly-lauded films. I’m sure I’m not the only mental health professional, despite a deep and abiding love for Jennifer Lawrence, to have been left cringing behind my popcorn during the Silver Linings Playbook (Russell, 2012).

A recent film which resonated with me much more closely was The Babadook (Jennifer Kent, 2014). In the best of horror traditions, this is a relatively small-budget film with little-known actors turning in compelling and authentic performances. The film tells the story of Amelia, a single mother to her 7-year old son Sam, who scrapes a living caring for elderly people in a nursing home. Amelia has been widowed under tragic circumstances, and although portrayed as a sympathetic and fundamentally kind woman, she is burnt-out by the emotional demands of caring for her patients at work, and her emotionally and behaviourally disturbed child at home.

In The Babadook, as in all good horror films, the comfort and familiarity of daily rituals are perverted and hijacked by an increasing sense of dread and violation. One evening, after Sam and Amelia have completed the usual routine of checking for monsters under the bed and in the wardrobe, they settle down for a bedtime story.   Sam requests his mother reads ‘Mister Babadook’, a pop-up book which has mysteriously appeared in his room. Needless to say, The Very Hungry Caterpillar, this is not. The Babadook is a prototypical monster – shadowy and indistinct, half-human, half-animal with a black hat and cape as ghoulish props. The book warns of the curse of the Babadook – how it will beg to be let in, and when it has got in, it will reveal its true terror to you. The final pages warn “You’re going to wish you were dead”. Needless to say, the book deeply disturbs both mother and son, so heralding the beginning of the Babadook’s psychological and physical assault on the family over coming nights.

The haunting of Amelia by the Babadook is always set within the wider context of her being haunted by the death of her husband, and the impact of this on her ability to effectively parent her child. Bowlby’s classic work on attachment theory highlights the importance of a baby forming a close emotional bond with a primary caregiver, which is usually (but not necessarily) the mother (Bowlby, 1969).

The forming of an effective attachment relationship is dependent on the emotional availability and responsiveness of the parent. As the film goes on, we see Amelia display many classic depressive symptoms including low mood, lack of energy, decreased activity and disturbed patterns of eating and sleeping (ICD-10 criteria; World Health Organization). In mothers of babies, these depressive symptoms unfortunately disrupt the normal reciprocal social interactions vital to the development of emotional expression and regulation in the child, such as eye-contact, smiling and shared attention (for review see Alvarez, Meltzer-Brody, Mandel & Beeber, 2015). For Amelia, as the birth of her son coincided with the death of her husband, the film leads us to speculate that her bond with Sam was forged under the most difficult of circumstances. This adverse emotional environment has unfortunately persisted over the years, perpetuated in part by the social exclusion both Amelia and Sam experience as a result of their bereavement.   This is portrayed starkly in one heart-breaking scene as Amelia is shunned by the other mothers at her own niece’s birthday party for being without a husband. In a parallel scene, Sam is shown being openly taunted by his cousin for being without a father.

To be clear, it is always made clear that Amelia loves her son and wants to be a good mother. At the same time, she clearly isn’t a saint or an angel. When Sam is screaming and shouting, when he disobeys her, gets into trouble at school, when he constantly wakes her up at night looking for reassurance, she is shown to be frustrated and angry towards her son; unacceptable feelings which she can only suppress and deny for so long. Later, when in the terrible grip of the Babadook, she shouts and rails at her son, saying cruel and rejecting things to him. These scenes are difficult to watch, in that they confirm the deepest fears both of Sam, that he is ultimately unwanted and unloved by his mother, and of Amelia, that she is a bad and inadequate parent. These scenes also brought to mind the concept of ambiguous loss, a term first coined by Boss (1999). A child with a depressed or traumatised parent experiences an ambiguous loss, because the parent is physically present but emotionally absent. Ambiguous losses disrupt normal grieving processes and prevents any sense of closure, which can also occur in grief reactions in family carers for people with dementia or other degenerative disorders for example (Boss, 2011). Sam seems only too aware of the emotional unavailability of his mother during her darkest times, whilst also showing a wisdom beyond his years, in somehow being able to separate his mother from her affliction, saying “I know you don’t love me Mum – the Babadook won’t let you”.

In the end, Sam helps his mother to find the strength to fight back, along with a timely appearance by their kindly neighbour Mrs. Roach, who concerned for their welfare, comes to check on them during the darkest of their nights. Prior to this point, Amelia’s bereavement has remained a taboo; a mark of social stigma, something not to be spoken about or even admitted to. Even her sister suggests after so many years, shouldn’t she perhaps be getting “over it?” The elderly Mrs. Roach, who has known the family for many years, recognises the futility of ignoring the anniversary of her husband’s death, saying to Amelia:-

“I know this time of year’s terribly difficult for you and I know you don’t want me to go on about it, so I won’t, but I just wanted you to know I’d do anything for you and Sam. I love you both.”

Amelia’s refusal to grant Mrs. Roach admission to the house, even after this heartfelt offer of support, symbolises her inability at that time to let anyone in to her internal world, to be able to recognise that she is not, as feared, all alone in her struggle. However, Sam and Mrs. Roach’s declarations of unconditional love and support for her are in fact the turning point for Amelia, in that they allow her to gather her own resources to go into battle with the Babadook.

The worse part of a curse is often that you can’t get rid of it, as the book of Mister Babadook repeatedly warns. In the same way, the worse part of depression is perhaps that it is characterised by negative and hopeless cognitive themes, such as that nothing ever works, things will never get better, so there’s no point in even trying. These thoughts often result in unhelpful behavioural responses such as avoidance and social withdrawal, which maintain the vicious cycle of depressed mood by reinforcing such negative thoughts, according to Beck’s classic cognitive theory of depression (Beck, 1967). Cognitive therapy works by encouraging active re-appraisal of such negative cognitions, and in many cases acting against such thoughts, by deliberately re-engaging with valued activities which help to improve mood (Beck, Rush, Shaw & Emery, 1979). Is this also the Babadook’s final trick then, it’s ultimate deception, to convince you that once you’ve let it in, you can never get rid of it? If so, Amelia’s “solution” to the curse of the Babadook is pretty original, as the curse is not simply destroyed or escaped by passing it on to someone else as is often usual in horror movies (e.g. The Ring franchise). Given that depression is a highly recurrent disorder (e.g. Judd, 1997), a lot of people describe learning to live “with” depression, staying well and managing episodes as best they can, but not necessarily seeing it as something that can be completely cured or banished. This process is skilfully depicted at the end of the film, after Amelia’s big show-down with the Babadook, in which she manages to somehow tame the monster, and banishes it to the basement of the house. The Babadook cannot be simply ignored or shut up forever however; further care and attention is needed. In the closing scenes of the film, we see Amelia presenting food to the Babadook in the basement, in a surprisingly tender way. In an interesting role reversal, the Babadook appears to be the one who is scared and roars back at Amelia. However, Amelia recognises its fear and pain, and responds not by retreating, but instead approaching the monster with soothing words and gestures in an effort to comfort it. This is a rather moving scene, and seemed consistent with the work of Paul Gilbert and colleagues on compassion-focused therapy, which encourage us in part to try to be-friend our inner critics and demons and to try to understand the messages they are bringing us, rather than fruitlessly battling to eliminate them altogether (Gilbert, 2009).

In conclusion, although The Babadook explores some rather dark themes, it is a strangely uplifting film in the end, without resorting to sentimentality. The great screen-writer Nora Ephron famously said “Above all, be the heroine of your life, not the victim”, and Amelia’s character certainly embodies this notion. Despite cautionary evidence that persistent maternal depressive symptoms are related to higher levels of emotional and behavioural problems in the children of affected mothers (van der Waerden et al., 2015), likewise there is much cause for optimism for good outcomes for both parents and their children if they receive timely help and support. For example, a recent meta-analysis of 9 randomised-controlled trials concluded that not only were psychological therapies an effective treatment for maternal depression, there was also a knock-on beneficial impact on the mental health of their children (Cuijpers, Weitz, Karyotaki, Garber & Andersson, 2015). As the wise old neighbour Mrs. Roach might say, it’s good to talk.

PURION® 2500 36W Pro

UV plants of the PURION® product line are characterized by compact construction and a high degree of efficiency respecting to disinfection and energy consumption. The construction design follows laws, standards and regulations

UV Plant PURION® 2500 36W PRO is equipped with a polished stainless steel reactor. PURION® 2500 36W PRO can be used to disinfect water of domestic use up to a flow rate of 2.000 l/h and a transmission of least less than 90% per cm. The used UV-lamps are characterized by a long durability and a high degree of efficiency respecting to disinfection and energy consumption. The power supply can be carried out with 230 V/50 HZ, 110 V/60 HZ110 V/60 Hz or 24 V DC.

The compact construction design enables an easy replacement of the UV lamp at the end of their useful life. You don´t need any tool. Also replacement and cleaning of the quartz pipe can be arranged easily. UV disinfection is reached by floating the water through the reactor. Inside the reactor an UV lamp enclosed in a UV-C transparent quartz pipe is surrounded by the process water to be treated. The small distance of 2 mm between the quartz pipe and the inner surface of the reactor ensures optimal irradiation and therefore optimal disinfection of the water.
