The PETM is accompanied by a mass

The PETM is accompanied by a mass extinction of 35-50% of benthic foraminifera (especially in deeper waters) over the course of ~1,000 years - the group suffering more than during the dinosaur-slaying K-T extinction. Contrarily, planktonic foraminifera diversified, and dinoflagellates bloomed. Success was also enjoyed by the mammals, who radiated profusely around this time.

The deep-sea extinctions are difficult to explain, as many were regional in extent (mainly affecting the north Atlantic). General hypotheses such as a temperature-related reduction in oxygen availability, or increased corrosiveness due to carbonate-undersaturated deep waters, are insufficient as explanations. The only factor which was global in extent was an increase in temperature, and it appears that the majority of the blame must rest upon its shoulders. Regional extinctions in the North Atlantic can be attributed to increased deep-sea anoxia, which could be due to the slowdown of overturning ocean currents,[12] or the release and rapid oxidation of large amounts of methane.[20][verification needed]

In shallower waters, it's undeniable that increased CO2 levels result in a decreased oceanic pH, which has a profound negative effect on corals.[21] Experiments suggest it is also very harmful to calcifying plankton.[22] However, the strong acids used to simulate the natural increase in acidity which would result from elevated CO2 concentrations may have given misleading results, and the most recent evidence is that coccolithophores (E. huxleyi at least) become more, not less, calcified and abundant in acidic waters.[23] Interestingly, no change in the distribution of calcareous nanoplankton such as the coccolithophores can be attributed to acidification during the PETM.[23] Acidification did lead to an abundance of heavily calcified algae[24] and weakly calcified forams.[25]

The increase in mammalian abundance is intriguing. There is no evidence of any increased extinction rate among the terrestrial biota. Increased CO2 levels may have promoted dwarfing[26] – which may (perhaps?) have encouraged speciation. Many major mammalian orders – including the Artiodactyla, horses, and primates – appeared and spread across the globe 13,000 to 22,000 years after the initiation of the PETM.[26]

The Feast of the Assumption

The Feast of the Assumption is an important day in the Catholic religion. It is the principal feast of the Blessed Virgin, the mother of Jesus Christ. This feast commemorates two events: the departure of Mary from the soul life and the assumption of her body into heaven.

In 1950, Pope Pius XⅡdefined that Mary "after the completion of her earthly life...was assumed body and soul into the glory of Heaven." Her body wasn't allowed to corrupt nor was it allowed to remain in a tomb.

The Feast of the Assumption In the early Christian centuries relics  of saints and those who gave their lives for the faith were jealously guarded and highly prized. Many cities claim the mortal remains of saints, both famous and little-known. But there are no records of Mary's bodily remains being venerated  anywhere.

In the Celtic lands, mid August was harvest time. The festival of Lughnasa was the harvest celebration in honor of  the God of the harvest Lugh who was responsible for the bounties of the harvest. There was singing and drinking and dancing and story telling in gratitude for the harvest and the promise of food to eat during the winter months. In Christian times it became the festival of Mary at Harvest Time because Mary reflected the life giving, life nurturing love of God.

As the Feast of the Immaculate Conception  proclaims the grace of Christ in Mary before he was born, so the Feast of the Assumption points to the fulfillment of that grace, when Mary was taken, body and soul, into heaven to share in the glory of her Son's Resurrection .

Like the mystery of her Immaculate Conception, the Assumption of Mary is significant for all humanity, since she anticipates our resurrection with Christ in glory.

Avago Adds QSFP+

BOEBLINGEN, Germany -- Avago Technologies (Nasdaq: AVGO), a leading supplier of analog interface components for communications, industrial and consumer applications, today announced fiber optic module solutions that enable more efficient switching and greater bandwidth in data centers. The new pluggable, parallel optical QSFP+ eSR4 transceiver is the first module that can address both 40 Gigabit (40G) and 10 Gigabit (10G) Ethernet applications with a verified link distance of 400 meters. This gives data center operators the flexibility to reuse the current 10G wired infrastructure when upgrading to 40G, providing a major cost savings. The Avago QSFP+ eSR4 modules integrate four 10G lanes in each direction to increase bandwidth within a line card by more than three times while using 50 percent less power than that of a one-lane SFP+ module.

Dell'Oro: 2012 optical transport equipment market shrinking

Sales of optical network hardware in the first half of 2012 declined 5% versus the same period in 2011, according to a newly published report by Dell’Oro Group. The optical network hardware market saw sales levels of $6.1 billion during the first half of last year, according to the market research firm. “The optical market contracted in the first half of 2012 due to lower spending in the mature markets of North America and EMEA,” said Jimmy Yu, vice president of optical transport research at Dell’Oro Group. “The emerging regions of Asia Pacific and Latin America, however, did grow as service providers in the regions continued to expand network capacity.” North American spending decreased 12% versus last year, while sales in the EMEA region declined 16%, the report reveals. While revenues have grown by 7% in Asia Pacific and 11% in the rest of the world (principally Latin America) compared to the first half of last year, the overall effect has been a 5% decline. As Infonetics Research stated earlier (see “Infonetics: Optical network systems revenue jumps 15% in 2Q12”), sales of WDM equipment and packet-optical systems bucked the downward trend. The former niche grew 5% in the first half of the year, while sales from the latter composed a third of total optical market revenues during the period. Overall equipment spending trends favored Huawei, which captured approximately 20% share of the worldwide optical network equipment market in first half 2012, Dell’Oro states.

Sticklers to launch OPTIXX lens and instrument screen cleaner at ECOC

Sticklers Fibre Optic Cleaning Products, a division of MicroCare Corp., says it will unveil the OPTIXX Precision Lens & Instrument Screen Cleaning Kit at the European Conference and Exhibition on Optical Communication (ECOC) which will run September 17–19 in Amsterdam. The OPTIXX Precision Lens and Instrument Screen Cleaning Kit is designed to be used on high-precision optics, solar cells, laser hardware, and scientific instruments used within the telecommunications, security, and medical fields. The kit will clean dust, oil, dirt, fingerprints, pyrotechnic soot, moisture, and similar environmentally generated contamination, Stickler says. The kit includes a non-pressurized, metered volume dispenser of the non-flammable OPTIXX optical-grade high-purity cleaning fluid and a specially designed dispenser containing 100 OPTIXX optical-grade, lint-free wipes. The OPTIXX cleaning fluid’s hermetically sealed 3 oz./85 g metered volume dispenser enables the fluid to be transported as non-hazardous and non-regulated. This means the kit can be shipped anywhere, even via commercial airlines, without HAZMAT paperwork and costs, Sticklers asserts. The OPTIXX wipes are static dissipating, non-tearing, non-abrasive, and exceed federal standard A-A-50177B Type 1, Class 4 spec for optical grade wipes.

Omron Network Products offers optical modules for video transmission

Omron Network Products, LLC (ONP) has unveiled a pair of optical transmitter and receiver modules, both rated to support 14 Gbps of data over 1 km of multimode fiber. The new P1TX6B-SX51x-02C and P1RX6B-SX51x-02C, also called 02C TX and RX Modules, are available now. The support of 1-Gbps backchannels makes the 02C modules the highest-speed versions of ONP’s new SX51x line. The 02B version, introduced last week, supports 622 Mbps in the backchannel, while the 02A version supports 155 Mbps. All are available now. “The 02C TX and RX Modules are unique in combining single-fiber 14-Gbps transmission capability, 1-Gbps backchannel data rate, and 1-km range, and supporting both USB and Ethernet,” said Martin Smith, ONP’s director of marketing, via a company press release. “In addition, the modules surpass all competitive optical modules in user customizability, enabling systems designers to tailor them for a wide range of advanced applications in many industries including medical, legal, and education.” The protocol-agnostic data modules include a pre-programmed laser driver, an integrated SC clip, and a metal housing with EMI shielding. The new data modules are designed for easy use and quick implementation into a variety of fiber extension products. It is this flexibility that distinguishes the SX51x series from competitors, Smith told Lightwave last week. While he expects the modules to find significant success initially in such applications as home theater and related professional audio/visual applications, Smith added that he expects the products to open the door to opportunities in industrial automation as well as healthcare, legal, and campus markets.
