D.C. Circuit Expands Ocean Carriers' Demurrage Billing Authority
In World Shipping Council v. Federal Maritime Commission (D.C. Cir. Sept. 23, 2025), the D.C. Circuit vacated part of the FMC's 2024 final rule on demurrage and detention billing. The rule had prohibited ocean carriers from billing certain contracting parties (e.g., motor carriers), even where those parties were obligated by contract to bear such charges, yet it allowed ocean carriers to bill consignees regardless of contractual privity.
The FMC's Latest Ruling On Detention Charges: What It Means For Ocean Carriers
Listen to this post On February 13, 2025, the Federal Maritime Commission ("FMC") issued its latest ruling in a saga concerning whether an ocean carrier's assessment of detention and demurrage ("D+D") charges during periods when equipment cannot be returned due to terminal closures constitutes an "unjust and unreasonable" practice in violation of the Shipping Act. See TCW, Inc. v. Evergreen Shipping Agency (Am.) Corp., Docket No. 1966(I) (FMC Feb 13, 2025).
Molecular analysis of individual differences in talker search at the cocktail-party
No Access The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America 152, 1804 (2022); https://doi.org/10.1121/10.0014116 A molecular (trial-by-trial) analysis of data from a cocktail-party, target-talker search task was used to test two general classes of explanations accounting for individual differences in listener performance: cue weighting models for which errors are tied to the speech features talkers have in common with the target and internal noise models for which errors are largely...
Role of Cueing and Expectancy in Front-Back Reversals during Sound-Source Localization
Full Proc. Mtgs. Acoust. 33, 050007 (2018); https://doi.org/10.1121/2.0001553 Front-back reversals (FBRs) often occur in laboratory experiments. Stimulus complexity, especially for high-frequency sounds, and head motion significantly reduce FBRs, so that in the everyday world FBRs probably do not often influence sound source localization.
Discrimination of changes in spatial configuration for multiple, simultaneously presented sounds
Abstract Listeners discriminated changes in the spatial configuration of two-to-eight consonant-vowel (CV) stimuli spoken by different talkers, all simultaneously presented from different loudspeakers in various azimuthal spatial configurations. The number of CVs, spatial configuration of the sound sources, and similarity of the talkers speaking the CVs were varied.
