The Port of Philadelphia in 2011 saw container traffic rise 6.7 percent year-over-year and auto shipments skyrocket 85 percent in the same period.
Container throughput last year at the port's two container terminals rose to 291,091 20-foot equivalent units, and container tonnage expanded 9 percent to 2 million metric tons, the Philadelphia Regional Port Authority said Wednesday.
Total cargo throughput rose 10 percent year-over-year to 3.9 million tons, thanks to a surge in Hyundai and Kia auto shipments. The port last year handled 127,347 auto units, equaling about 174,978 tons, a 126 percent year-over-year gain.

"For the past few years our Research and Development teams have been working on a new computer architecture that breaks the traditional mold. We wanted to create a new computer processor that mimics the human brain and nervous system so devices can have embedded cognition driven by brain inspired computing—this is Qualcomm Zeroth processing."
The company envisions "neuro-inspired" chips for robots, vision systems, brain implants and smartphones that will sense and process information more efficiently than ever before. Qualcomm has been focusing on a class of processors called neural processing units (NPUs). designed to be massively parallel, reprogrammable, and capable of cognitive tasks such as classification and prediction
Qualcomm's vision of the smartphone of the future, for example, has NPUs. The handset, like a pet, could be trained, If your phone goes off when it's not supposed to, you could say "bad phone" without having to go into menus and a lot of configurations. The user could teach and train the phone.
Qualcomm already has a suite of software tools that can teach computers good and bad behavior without explicit programming...
Qualcomm CTO Matt Grob recently delivered a sponsored talk at MIT Technology Review's EmTech conference (billed as an event about emerging technologies with the potential to change lives). Grob demonstrated how far Qualcomm has come and where it wants to go with a breakaway architecture.
Grob showed a video of a robot that learns to go to only white tiles on a floor designed with yellow and white tiles. The robot was positively reinforced with "good robot" each time it went to a white tile, and the audience watched as the robot proceeded to only seek out white, not yellow, tiles, without the aid of any unique algorithm or code.
Why is Qualcomm so involved with this work? Grob said that is a question one may ask. "We are wireless; well, mobile is a challenging design environment. We are under constraints for power, performance and size." As it turns out, he said, a brain has a different architecture than computers and is considerably power-efficient.
Qualcomm looks to biology for inspiration to a new generation of processors; he said. "So what do we do? We create a neuron model, then create tools."
Grob said the company is ready to make some of these tools available. According to the MIT Technology Review, the company by next year will be able to partner with researchers and startups, with Qualcomm offering them a platform to realize designs in hardware.

An Amazing Adventure
My aunty came from U.S. to India to visit our house. As it being summer she was using light revealing cloths and I was sexually aroused by her.
Bhabhis and sisters show the ultimate love..
My aunty came from U.S. to India to visit our house. As it being summer she was using light revealing cloths and I was sexually aroused by her.
I was waiting to see my elder sister for the past 6 years and I got the wonderful opportunity now. We met and spoke for some time and then we got intimate.
Once I peeped into the bathroom where my masi was taking bath and I was sexually aroused in seeing her sexy assets as she looks gorgeous.
Seeing a girl in towel would make any guy to go crazy and his dick would be erected well. I saw my saali opening the door in such occasion for me.
I was called by my servant Rajan to come home immediately. Later me and Rajan fucked my mom together having the best sex of my life.
My sister and I were left alone at home by my parents. My sister had a break up with her boyfriend and I saw some sexy chats with him in her mobile.
I had a close friend named Raghu. Once we both went to his house for our vacation and we were in a sexual mood to fuck someone. There came Raghu's mom.
I went to my bhabi's house during my vacation and I was dumb struck with the way my bhabi behaved with me. She hugged me on our first meet.
When I was unwell, resting in my brother's house, Poojitha walked into my erotic life. She is none other than my brother's daughter.
My horny auntie's husband has a very small dick and she didn't like his sexual intercourse with her. Hence, I got introduced for a sexual relationship.

Brothers helping brothers: Exeter firefighters head to NYC to help city's bravest
A member of the New Sharon, Iowa, Fire Department hands supplies to Exeter Fire Lt. Jason Greene, right, as boxes of goods destined for victims of Hurricane Sandy are loaded into an Exeter fire vehicle trailer for delivery sitting outside the old Brooklyn, N.Y., firehouse Tuesday afternoon. A generator continues to supply power to the firehouse as part of Brooklyn remains in the dark. (JASON SCHREIBER/Union Leader Correspondent)
8BROOKLYN, N.Y. -- With a generator humming next to them outside an old, darkened Brooklyn firehouse, firefighters from Exeter, N.H., and Iowa formed a bucket brigade to load rolls of toilet paper, warm blankets and boxes of food into the back of a fire vehicle.
The supplies are headed to firefighters whose homes were devastated when Superstorm Sandy blasted the region a little more than two weeks ago.
Six Exeter firefighters traveled to Queens and Brooklyn early Tuesday morning to provide donated supplies and manual labor to help their fellow firefighters get back on their feet. The firefighters volunteered their time.
"We're prepared to do anything. It's not just about helping your own community out, it's about helping our brothers out," said Exeter firefighter Patrick Robicheau, who got the idea for the two-day trip after watching news coverage of Sandy's aftermath.
Robicheau contacted Lt. Jason Greene to see about filling the fire department's utility truck with supplies and getting some firefighters together to deliver them.
The idea quickly grew into a relief effort involving two fire department trucks filled with supplies donated by local businesses.
Robicheau also hooked up with Friends of Firefighters, an organization that helps active and retired New York City firefighters.
In addition to the 250 gallons of donated Poland Springs water, cleaning supplies, Army cots, and other items, the fire department pulled together some of its older turnout gear, hand tools and other equipment that are no longer in use and donated them to a foundation that will give them to fire departments that lost equipment in the storm.
Robicheau and Greene were accompanied by firefighters Ryan Booth and Richard Curtis and crew chiefs Lee Dawson and Jeff Liporto.
Each grabbed a tool belt from home and hit the road just after 4 a.m. They spent the day hauling supplies around and planned to help firefighters rip out damaged building materials and clean up their homes Wednesday before returning to Exeter.
With a pellet stove to provide heat, the Exeter firefighters spent the night in the historic firehouse in the Red Hook section of Brooklyn. The Friends of Firefighters now use the building, which wasn't spared when Sandy came ashore. The firehouse was flooded in the storm and is slowly coming back to life with help from firefighters like the ones from Iowa who installed new drywall Monday.
The brotherhood was evident when the Exeter and Iowa firefighters teamed up.
"Within five seconds of meeting these guys everyone knew exactly what to do," Greene said as they continued lugging boxes of supplies around and darkness fell.
Booth said he was glad that he could come down to help.
"Between 9/11, the hurricane last year and this hurricane, it's a lot of stuff for them to deal with," he said.
Liporto agreed.
"I think whatever we can do is better than nothing," he said.
As the firefighters worked at the firehouse, Raymond Leung and his workers were next door throwing out about 85 percent of the merchandise for his housewares wholesale company, Glory Trading Corp. Five feet of water ruined everything and a garbage bags were piled up the sidewalk.
"I can't do any business now because I don't have any goods to sell," he said. "And I have no power. I can do nothing."

5 Companies With Fastest-Growing Profits
BOSTON ( TheStreet Ratings) -- The U.S. economy, while making strides since the Great Recession, slowed in the first quarter, and the job market and housing industry have worsened. Higher oil and food prices, Europe's debt woes and the earthquake in Japan piled on to the misery.
Still, I wanted to find stocks that have been bucking the trend. Specifically, companies that are increasing profits at a fast rate. I screened top-rated stocks (as ranked by TheStreet Ratings' quantitative equity model) and looked for companies with growth in revenue, earnings and cash flow of at least 20% in the most recent quarter and with estimated growth of at least 20% in earnings per share over the next year.
I also wanted companies with so-called high-quality earnings, meaning cash flow is greater than net income. If net income is greater than cash flow, it could be a sign that the company is manipulating profits or using aggressive accounting methods to make earnings look better than they may be.
Here are the highest-rated stocks, according to the aforementioned metrics:Carbo Ceramics (CRR) makes ceramic proppants, which are used in the hydraulic fracturing of natural gas and oil wells. Once a driller has "fractured" the sediment, it needs something to keep it "propped" for gases or liquids to flow more efficiently to the wellhead. Ceramic proppants offer an alternative to popular sand-based materials and have shown to greatly improve the production of oil and gas. Carbo Ceramics has been a big benefactor of exploration in the Eagle Ford and the Haynesville shale territories, setting records for proppant-sales volume in the recent quarter, with earnings and operating cash flow up 44% and 55%, respectively. Management is aggressively building for the future, with two projects that should increase proppant capacity to over 2.1 billion pounds per year, an increase of 35% over current production. Yet, after the stock has more than doubled in the past year, some investors are concerned Carbo Ceramics is overvalued. The stock trades at a premium to the industry (current price-to-earnings ratio of 36 and forward P/E of 23), but, given growth prospects and leadership position in a booming industry, I still think the stock offers a great secular growth opportunity. TheStreet Ratings has a "buy" with a $197 price target (34% potential upside) on shares of Carbo Ceramics.

Inventory made by Tiny de Boer in 1993, updated by Wim Leendertse in 2008
Dora Winifred Russell-Black was born on 3 April 1894 in
Thornton Heath, Surrey, Great Britain. In 1912 she won a scholarship for Girton
College, Cambridge, obtaining an honours degree in modern languages in 1915.
She studied French and German language and literature and later became a
research fellow of Girton College, where she did about five years academic
research on eighteenth century French thought, specializing on the influence of
science on social and political and philosophical ideas.
Originally she wanted to become an actress, but she gradually turned towards politics instead. She became a humanist and a feminist, joining the freethinking Heretics Society and supporting the Suffragette Movement. She also became interested in socialism and pacifism.
During the First World War she joined her father, a civil servant, as personal assistant on the official British War Mission to the United States in 1917. Back in 1918 she returned to Cambridge, where she continued her research, also becoming secretary of the Heretics and contributor to the Cambridge Magazine in 1918.
In 1916 she met the philosopher and mathematician Bertrand Russell for the first time and after they met again in 1919 they became companions. When Bertrand Russell went with a Labour delegation to Russia in 1920, he refused to take her with him. However she went there on her own, spending several weeks in Moscow and Leningrad, where she became deeply impressed by the Communist regime, although she never became a Marxist. Subsequently she accompanied Bertrand Russell when he travelled to China and Japan as a visiting lecturer. Together they spent a year teaching at the Peking National University. They married in 1921 after returning from China and had two children, John (1921) and Kate (1923), while Dora eventually had two other children by the American journalist Griffin Barry , Harriet (1930) and Roddy (1932). The last child proved to be too much of a strain on their open marriage and led to their divorce in 1935.
In the early 1920s Dora Russell worked for some time in the Women's sections of the Labour Party and in 1924 she was nominated as a Labour parliamentary candidate. She lobbied the first labour government to support the official provision of birth control information at health clinics and was cofounder of the Workers' Birth Control Group .
At the same time she began writing her own books. Earlier she had contributed to several books of Bertrand Russell and together they wrote 'The Prospects of Industrial Civilization' in 1923.
In 1925 her book "Hypatia: or Women and Knowledge" was published, followed by 'The Right to be Happy' two years later.
In addition she wrote articles on literary, social, political and feminist topics for El Sol in Madrid, Spain, during 1926-1930.
Together they had founded Beacon Hill School in 1927 and after Bertrand Russell had left the school in 1932, Dora Russell managed it by herself until 1943 when she was forced to close it down.
Dora Russell did a three months lecture tour of the United States in 1928, revisited the Soviet Union in 1929 and then helped to organize the London congress of the World League for Sexual Reform (WLSR) . She wrote 'In Defence of Children' (1932) and did a lot of freelance journalism.
She also continued her political activities. When the leftwing Independent Labour Party (ILP) withdrew from the Labour Party in 1932 she stayed with the Independent Labour Party .
She was a founding member of the Federation of Progressive Societies and Individuals (FPSI) in 1932, of the National Council for Civil Liberties (NCCL) in 1934, and of the Abortion Law Reform Association (ALRA) in 1936. The Progressive League later held meetings at her school.
When the school closed she obtained a post at the Ministry of Information, working there for almost seven years as editor of their publications in Russia.
She was editor of the British Chronicle, a paper for specialists dealing with the arts and sciences, published by the British Government in Moscow, as well as science editor of the British Ally from 1944 to 1950, a British government Russian-language weekly paper which was widely circulated in the Soviet Union, until it was closed due to the 'Cold War'.
After 1950 she turned to feminist and pacifist activities. She was active in many women's organizations, including the Six Point Group, the Married Women's Association (MWA) , the National Committee of International Women's Day, the National Assembly of Women (NAW) , the Permanent International Committee of Mothers (PICM) and the Women's International Democratic Federation (WIDF) .
In 1958 she led the Women's Caravan of Peace across Europe to Moscow and back, visiting fourteen European countries, including Yugoslavia, Albania, Bulgaria, Rumania, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Poland and the USSR. It was mainly supported by the Permanent International Committee of Mothers (PICM) of which Dora Russell was the Chairman, although the Women's Caravan of Peace constisted of women from various peace groups.
In the 1970s she resumed some of her earlier activities. She returned to the freethought movement, becoming an Honorary Associate of the Rationalist Press Association, speaking at meetings, and contributing to the New Humanist and The Freethinker. She was deeply respected in the revived women's liberation movement, being frequently interviewed by the media. She wrote more books, including a three-volume autobiography 'The Tamarisk Tree' and 'The Religion of the Machine Age', on which she had started many years earlier in the light of her visits to the United States and the Soviet Union, and in which she expressed her lifelong opposition to the mechanistic view of the world and of humanity, anticipating many of the ideas of the ecology movement, in which she was active for the Conservation Society , co-founded by her in 1966.
During the 1980s she became active in the revived nuclear disarmament movement, being a strong supporter of the Greenham Common Women's Peace Camps, and she took part in peace demonstrations until her death at the end of May 1986 at her home in Porthcurno, Cornwall.
Beacon Hill School
Having children of their own and being dissatisfied with the
existing educational methods Dora and Bertrand Russell
became increasingly interested in the problems of the education of children.
They became convinced that a fundamentally new approach to education,
especially primary education was required.
With this in view they founded in 1927 Beacon Hill School at Telegraph House, Harting, Petersfield, Sussex, where they educated on progressive principles a small group of young children together with their own children. They hoped their school would lay the foundation for modern education by combining all that was best in available academic knowledge (inv.no. 75).
Religious education was excluded and science, history and politics were all treated on progressive lines. In addition to classes there were many activities, such as arts and crafts, plays and puppet shows and the care of the children's personal gardens and pets. Discipline was minimal and free expression was encouraged. There was self-government by a council of adults and children, in which everyone had one vote.
The children were divided into three groups, called: 'bigs', 'middles' and 'smalls'.
Special attention was given to teaching methods, psychological theory and practice, nutrition and health.
After Bertrand Russell left the school in 1932, Dora Russell ran the school by herself. In 1934 Bertrand Russell wanted the school to vacate Telegraph House, which belonged to him after the death of his brother. The school was then moved to Boyles Court, South Weald, near Brentwood, Essex, and later in 1937 to Kingwell Hall, near Bath, Somerset, since the outbreak of war was thought likely. In 1940, when invasion threatened, the War Office requisitioned Kingwell Hall. No compensation was forthcoming and the school faced ruin. Dora Russell managed to carry on with a small group at her private home in Porthcurno, Cornwall, near Land's End until 1943, when she was forced to close down.
While Bertrand Russell was connected with the school he wrote popular books to keep the school going. After he had left, the school had recurring financial difficulties.
Her closest colleague in the later years of the school was Gordon (Pat) Grace , whom she married in 1940. He died in 1949. Along with A.S. Neill 'Summerhill' Beacon Hill School was the best known model reform school before the Second World War.
The papers of Dora Russell , packed
in some sixty boxes, were acquired in 1988. They contained the archives of the
Beacon Hill School as well as the Dora
Russell papers, with the exception of the letters received from
Bertrand Russell .
These were sold by the family to McMasters University, Ontario, Canada, where the archive of Bertrand Russell remains. The papers almost cover Dora Russell's whole life. Only of the Beacon Hill School rather little correspondence remained from the period 1927 until 1932, which also seems to be the case in the Bertrand Russell archive, according to Dora Russell's correspondence with the McMasters University in Ontario (inv.no. 68).
In arranging the papers the existing order has been maintained as far as possible, although inconsistencies have been corrected. When using the resulting list the user must be aware of some peculiarities. They concern in particular the series of correspondence, which do not exclude each other completely.
To find all letters by a correspondent the alphabetical and chronological correspondence should be checked and if a correspondent was also involved in the Beacon Hill School or organizations Dora Russell took part in, letters may be found in these files as well.

RICHMOND, Va. - The flu season is making a late arrival to Virginia.
State public health officials say the February start of the flu season is possibly the latest in a quarter-century. On the plus side, the seasonal flu vaccine remains widely available.
The Virginia Department of Health monitors lab reports, hospital emergency rooms and urgent care centers to monitor cases of flu. Within the last two weeks those indicators show an uptick in flu activity in Virginia.
The state's activity level is now at "regional." That means the flu is active in multiple regions of the state.
