Sortino Ratio

Does anyone have the formula for the Sortino Ratio (a system evaluation
statistic based on semi-variance.) 

It looks like it's a big improvement over stats like the Sharpe Ratio,
which penalize upside volatility equally along with downside volatility.
(If my account when up 1000% in a month I sure wouldn't complain ...)

I've poked around the web some without much success ...

Thanks,
