Freight Market

One of the major goals of the European Union's transport policy is to increase the market share of rail freight transports. With the Internet, globalization, and just-in-time production, the future of freight transport has moved to high-value and lightweight goods. Rail freight has had difficulty entering this market. Thus, a multipronged strategy is required for improving the rail freight market in which freight is consolidated and transported in Europe by encouraging new players to enter the market. A key pillar of this strategy is the introduction of freight exchanges that are based on principles similar to those of power exchanges. The latter are already well established and operational in the energy sector. This paper describes the market and operational requirements for efficient and reliable freight exchanges in the European freight market from which the rail sector can profit. Lessons learned from the energy sector were reviewed and applied in the context of the rail freight sector in this study. The analysis implies that for rail freight to function, as a pre requisite the freight exchanges would need to provide high liquidity in the market and be neutral to all parties, including shippers and forwarders. Furthermore, to facilitate competition, such exchanges would have to send price signals in the market like power exchanges do. The exchanges would allow automatic bidding, and the transaction process would be efficient and reliable. The rail freight operators would need to provide standardized indistinguishable products to serve as commodities on the freight exchanges.

Exhaustive List

Purpose The purpose of this clinical focus article is to provide speech-language pathologists with a brief update of the evidence that provides possible explanations for our experiences while coaching college students with traumatic brain injury (TBI). Method The narrative text provides readers with lessons we learned as speech-language pathologists functioning as cognitive coaches to college students with TBI. This is not meant to be an exhaustive list, but rather to consider the recent scientific evidence that will help our understanding of how best to coach these college students. Conclusion Four lessons are described. Lesson 1 focuses on the value of self-reported responses to surveys, questionnaires, and interviews. Lesson 2 addresses the use of immediate/proximal goals as leverage for students to update their sense of self and how their abilities and disabilities may alter their more distal goals. Lesson 3 reminds us that teamwork is necessary to address the complex issues facing these students, which include their developmental stage, the sudden onset of trauma to the brain, and having to navigate going to college with a TBI. Lesson 4 focuses on the need for college students with TBI to learn how to self-advocate with instructors, family, and peers.

Purpose The SUpport PRogram (SUPR) study was carried out in the context of a private academic partnership and is the first study to evaluate the long-term effects of a communication program (SUPR) for older hearing aid users and their communication partners on a large scale in a hearing aid dispensing setting. The purpose of this research note is to reflect on the lessons that we learned during the different development, implementation, and evaluation phases of the SUPR project. Procedure This research note describes the procedures that were followed during the different phases of the SUPR project and provides a critical discussion to describe the strengths and weaknesses of the approach taken. Conclusion This research note might provide researchers and intervention developers with useful insights as to how aural rehabilitation interventions, such as the SUPR, can be developed by incorporating the needs of the different stakeholders, evaluated by using a robust research design (including a large sample size and a longer term follow-up assessment), and implemented widely by collaborating with a private partner (hearing aid dispensing practice chain).

Daunting Task

Abstract At first, grant writing may look like a daunting task. You may ask yourself, “Is it really worth the time and effort?” With today's economic situation, teachers and therapists need ways to supplement their programs and grants provide such an opportunity. However, many of us do not know how to get started. After a few experiences and many lessons learned, I have come to enjoy researching and writing grants to supplement my students' learning. It is well worth the time and effort. This article provides information about a personal journey, lessons learned, and resources to get you started.
