The Race For The Future Of Aircraft SeatingTorben Haagh
The benefits of reducing the basic empty weight of commercial aircrafts are widespread and there for have become a high priority for airline manufactures. Any design that results in a reduced basic empty weight (BEW), or an overall reduction in weight of the aircraft will reduce the amount of fuel required to operate a commercial aircraft and thus the cost of fuel.

Project: Air Transport Analysis
10/25/2022
Assignment Instruction for Project 8
Your executive board has asked you to prepare a presentation detailing the opportunities for air transport (local and global) XPO . As your starting point analyze current usage of air transport with the reasons for its usage in comparison to alternative modes of transport across the dimensions of cost and service. Having profiled current air transport usage, develop your presentation to cover future opportunities for air transport in XPO, again using the logic of costs and service. You may find it useful to identify current and future products that fit a profile of high value to mass / cubic volume in terms of their fit with air transport.
Your presentation should be about 5 slides in length
Current Usage of Air Transport
XPO provide air transport services for urgent / express shipment
About 617 million shipments were shipped by XPO in the United States from North America, from Europe and from Latin America
XPO air transport market is expected to expand by 2037
XPO target for customer who are looking for reliability, affordability, speed, and invention of new technologies has led to the increase in its usage
3
Future Opportunities For Air Transport In XPO Logistics Inc
a. Reduced Costs
This is by ordering goods in bulk to save many trips therefore saving fuel and other processes involved.
Outsourcing transportation management is also essential.
Other modes of transport are so expensive in terms of processes involved in supply chain compared to air transport (Seymour et al., 2020).
By monitoring supply chain performance, XPO Logistics Inc. will be able to determine breakage in line of operation and correct them properly (Vinod, 2021).
Customers can save more money overall when they are encouraged to do larger orders. This can benefit both XPO logistics and the customers. For instance, transporting six to eight pallets at once can typically be less expensive than shipping two to four pallets every other day. It makes reasonable that needing to use more journeys will result in the carriers using more labor, petrol, and vehicles. As one can see, prices will remain this way unless one component can be changed to significantly lower the cost of air freight as a whole. Air transport can help XPO logistics to reduce cost because the costs for fuel and other logistics expenses needed in this process are low (Seymour et al., 2020). A company can transfer the load on itself when they outsource the logistics and transportation of freight. These businesses can also buy operational goods in bulk, like fuel and parts/accessories (Islam, 2019). At the end of the day, XPO Logistics will still save more money on air freight shipping even if it has its own carrier line. Commercial sea travel, including trips on freighters and cruise ships, is significantly more expensive than flying considering tax and duties. Companies are able to det.
Airports are big campuses, divided into the groups of buildings, separated groups of buildings which
are achieving lots of functions, both integrated and standalone. These campuses are being use by the demands of
the passengers

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Management in Aviation
The airline perspective
Prof. Dr. Frank Fichert
Worms University of Applied Sciences
2. Airlines, just like airports, can take many measures to reduce their
environmental ‘footprint’ that are similar to measures in other industries,
e.g., reducing energy consumption of office buildings, reducing waste, etc.
Also the principles of environmental management (see the overview in
S/V 06-01) are applicable to the airline industry.
The following slides will focus on selected areas that are of particular
relevance for airlines.
The airline perspective 2
Introduction
3. Reducing fuel consumption reduces GHG emissions and at the same time
reduces fuel costs (however, there might be a trade-off if other costs are
increasing).
There are many options, in particular
- Operating modern (more fuel efficient) aircraft
- Reduce aircraft weight
- Improve operations (at the airport as well as during the flight)
- …
The airline perspective 3
Fuel consumption
4. Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF) might replace fossil fuels. In the EU, the
use of a certain share of SAF will become mandatory in the future.
Some airlines already use SAF either in specific trials or on (few) selected
flights on a voluntary basis.
Moreover, many airline are engaged in projects that develop more
environmental friendly products (e.g., electric aircraft) or procedures (e.g.,
air traffic management).
The airline perspective 4
SAF and other innovations
5. Many airlines provide an opportunity for passengers to compensate some
or even all carbon emissions.
These programs differ with respect to the integration within the booking
process, the options provided (e.g., offsets vs. use of SAF), and also the
amount for compensating one unit of CO2 emissions.
Although VCOs are offered for many years, the share of passengers that
compensate their emissions is very small – from an economic perspective
this can be seen as a typical ‘free rider’ issue.
The airline perspective 5
Voluntary Carbon Offsets (VCO)
6. The term ‘greenwashing’ refers to statements or campaigns of firms that are
misleading, suggesting a high level of sustainability.
‘Greenwashing’ might not only lead to a negative effect on the image if the
firm (often through social media), but there might also be legal
consequences, as firms are usually not allowed to make statements that
are deliberately wrong.
Examples for airline campaigns that are considered to be ‘greenwashing’
refer to ‘carbon neutral flights’ or airlines that claim that they are ‘protecting
the future’.
The airline perspective 6
‘Greenwashing’
7. Please read one or two airline sustainability reports and list – in a systematic
way – the measures that are mentioned/described.
Please search for examples of airlines that have been accused of
‘greenwashing’ and discuss the respective campaigns within a group.
