Cities are made more livable in many ways with the help of Mass Transit. For instance, working as an alternate to automobiles, mass transit functions to curb the undesirable results produced by automobile jam, excessive energy usage and other associated environmental emanations. As a result, it plays important role in keeping the check on factors that are responsible for producing bad effects on public health.

There are many others wide variety of less apparent benefits that Mass Transit provides because of its ease of access and economical rates. Mass transit provides number of advantages to the labors, employers and state at the same time. Labors find it easy to travel for going and getting back from work. Employers get workforce that is more accessible and for the state level it minimizes and assists in unemployment issues for people stay employed in more numbers, if they are getting easy access with economical rates for reaching their working places.

Mass transit is a great way of providing benefits to the old people, handicapped or to people who have low income resources, young people and many others alike, who depend totally on this source of transport. On one side where Mass transit provides transportation means to the people of the society who are less advantaged, whereas on the other side it provides opportunities to the people of the society to participate in the communal activities thus enhancing its liveliness. Mass Transit is also a great way of providing considerable support to the economic feasibility of a city because it provides transportation means to the tourists and visitors. This way it plays another big role in supporting civil and communal behavior in a city.

It is not surprising that Mass Transit services are rendering huge benefits to the society in very economical prices as compared to using your own vehicle for transportation purposes. Without Mass Transit, it would be hard living healthier lives in the world, since it saves us from many troubles which we would be facing like global warming and emission of poisonous gases in the environment.

2 elderly women are stripped search at U.S. airports, by Transport Security Administration (TSA).   The women 85 and 88 were both searched invasively at JFK International Airport in New York.  The TSA are denying the types of searches they conducted.  One of the woman’s family is planning on suing the TSA.

They have enhanced “pat-downs” or risk being scanned by a full body scanner that shows “everything”. 

“Not only that, but instead of going over the clothing, in many instances it is being reported that TSA officials are actually reaching down the pants and up the skirts of air travelers.  Some TSA officials are doing this hundreds of times a day, and they do not put on clean gloves each time they perform an examination.”

People are being violated by the TSA and are calling it sexual assault.  The enhanced pat downs involve the TSA putting their hands down the persons pants.  They do this to hundreds of people a day, women with babies, 90 yr old women, 3 yr old children, even nuns!

The girl speaks about the TSA being handcuffed to a chair!

This a 6yr old little girl getting patted down at the airport!

Boda-boda cyclists are motorcycle taxis riders who carry passengers for a small fee over a given distance. I am aware that in countries like Nigeria, these very hardworking young men are very helpful to the public because they are faster and can dodge traffic jams during rush hours.

Unfortunately for the case of the Uganda boda-boda cyclists, they don’t take their hygiene seriously. Many of them work until after midnight and set off to work the next day as early as 5.am. This kind of work schedule does not give some of them time to address their personal hygiene. One such boda was recently subdued by fellow boda-bodas in the middle of the city and forcefully bathed in public. Many passengers had repeatedly expressed their displeasure at the issuing body stench of this particular Boda-bod rider whenever he was giving them rides-this matter reached their leaders who quickly organized strong men to to arrest and undress the culprit.

By the time he was undressed, water and detergents were ready-he was thoroughly scrabbed and washed by fellow Boda-bodas before being released to continue with his daily work of transporting passengers. This is a very common happening in Kampala lately. The Leaders of the Boda-boda cyclists are trying to show the public that they don’t tolerate poor hygiene, most especially now that the government is trying enforce the use of shared helmets.

The public was very pleased with the action of the Boda-boda Association in washing up one of their own in public to improve public hygiene. It is hoped that the rest of the boda-bodacyclists who are not serious about their hygiene will style up when they see such humiliating public washing being enforced by their own leaders.

For those who are looking to get a completely safe and secure prisoner transport vehicle, there are a few key features that you should ensure are included in the van or bus you choose to purchase. First, it’s important that any prison bus contain ADA compliant lift equipment so that prisoners of all physical capabilities can ride safely and securely in your prisoner transport vehicle. Secondly, safety features like security walls, electronic locks, a rear officer station and security cameras are an absolute must because they prevent breakouts and potential prisoner-on-prisoner or prisoner-on-employee violence during any trip. Finally, it’s extremely helpful to get a prisoner transport vehicle which features bathroom facilities, specifically a waterless urinal. This provides adequate amenities for the riders while also eliminating the need for most of the prisoners to be removed from the vehicle at any point during the trip, which is often the cause of potential problems when moves are made with a prisoner bus.

To be sure that employees, prisoners and citizens remain safe during these trips, it is very importantl that prison facilities upgrade their prisoner transport vehicles in order to meet these standards. Without these basic necessities, the facilities will be at a great risk for encountering problems during any prisoner transport task.

Public transport can be a life saver because you could of have gone shopping for household supplies and yet the person who has dropped you off cannot pick you up so you will have to either get the train or bus but it can also be a real hassle maker because you will have to wait what seems to be forever to get the bus or train and it would cost more than getting home by car!

another example: Public transport can be a lifesaver because you may have to walk home but you cannot be bothered to because your house is like 30 minutes away on foot so public transport comes to the rescue once again! the bad side to this though is that you may not have enough space for any bags you might have so you will have to place them on a sort of dirty floor which will not be good!

Lets look at cons and pros for public transport:

pro’s

you don’t have to walk home

easy access for people with wheelchairs or buggies

take a load of your hands litterally!

con’s

does more damage to the environment than walking home

not as quick as driving home in a car!

public transport will not take you to your doorstep whereas you car does!

so here are my cons and pros and I hope you look at this article as advice! DO NOT TAKE THE BUS BECAUSE THEY ARE HORRIBLE! thanks for reading!

Nowadays having a pet is fairly common and many animals are kept as pets, the popular ones being cats and dogs. Thankfully as many people rely on them for company and as a companion they are treated respectfully. People may decide to get pets for different reasons e.g. Company, to bond their family and help for the blind. However this doesn’t affect the way people treat them and feed them and luckily people treat them like anyone else in their family.

Guide Dogs:

Guide Dogs are specially trained dogs in order to be able to help the blind or people with major sight problems to get around safely. As I said above for pets they are normally treated with great respect as a companion for many blind people are unfortunate enough to live on their own or in care.

Sport:

Animals which are used in sport aren’t just abuse towards the animal such as in Bull fighting. For example greyhound racing the animals chase after the hare with no force from a human. With the animals being looked after carefully in sport and being checked on abused animal owners will be punished by the government .

Transport:

Animals have been used in human transport for thousands of years for example horses. Nowadays we are less dependent on animals assistance but they are still used and transport in some areas of the world like Husky dogs in the Arctic. The transport of animals can help humans pass through the toughest environments with little effort with normally no stress or mistreatment to the animal.

Work:

Animals used in work are fairly scarce until it comes to the police and military sector. For example sniffer dogs at airports and other locations placed around the United States. Also some type of bird is used in Japan for fishing. These animals are well looked after, even after they have been ‘retired’

Experiments:

An animal being used in experimentation is a very controversial subject and probably at least 75% of the population would protest about it, until it becomes on testing for something for that animal could benefit from i.e. new medicines maybe for a cow infected with mad cow disease. Experimentation on animals even in perspective is still probably going to be protested about.

Farming:

Animals help in farming in many ways apart from cattle farming for food. For example sheep help in the farming business by eating grass which moves more fertile soil to the top of the ground so new crops can be grown there again and also when they are sheared it isn’t just benefiting us for wool it benefits the sheep so they don’t have so much wool and can take up less space for itself.

Have you ever thought of running your car on tap water? Probably not! many people around the world are not aware of this use of water. Have you heard the name of James Watt? Of course I have gone through this name in your primary school and are familiar with the person who invented the first steam engine. James Watt turned water into steam and used the energy of steam for various purposes. Even today, many countries in the railways for the transport of passengers and goods from one place to another use vapor. So, we know how to get water, because the job a long time. Here, in case of running our cars on water, we have the knowledge base and only one thing is that there are informed about the procedure to get energy from water. People have tried both the technologies available to run your car on water and are the first to convert water into steam and using steam to run your car and another is to convert water into components base and use the components for your car.

Indeed in the first case to convert water into steam and then using the steam for your car running, some limitations are, however, in the latter case, the successful demonstration and field trials have already taken place. On the day thousands of people run their cars virtually tap water and thus save huge money on gas bills applicants. There are a number of small items of equipment available and the cost of this equipment is less than $ 100 and with the help of a mechanic you can install these in your car. It is not necessary to request further changes to your motor drive and once installed the equipment in your car, you start saving money right away. With the rising cost of crude oil, which is $ 140 today and by the end of the year will reach $ 200 mark, the price of gas at a service station are expected to rise, because no oil company will be able to gas supply at the current rate.
So, plan to convert your car to gas-based water-based and start saving as soon as possible. Do you need an investment of approximately $ 100 to once and have a huge potential savings that would otherwise have been spent on gas bills.

From my own understanding, transport is a means of travelling far or short distance for the purpose of business or pleasure. According to academic writers and those who have taken it as a profession sees transport as the movement of goods and people from one place to another. For proper definition; Transport is a profession that studies the arts and science and management of the operation and movement of goods and people. There are various modes of transportation, which some are already fading away. Like the animal haulage, these was very prevailing during the agricultural age to early time industrial revolution, when animals like donkey, camel, horse etc, were used for land transport purpose. After or during the industrial revolution modes of transportation improved starting from the introduction of steam boats to the creation of paved high ways, to rail ways and air terminals, and sea terminals, all this became the birth of the industrial age. In this study it is very good to note that the industrial era requires transport for it to speed up, but without careful study one might think that the industrial age brought transportation. I can only say that “the industrial era improved transportation with various “modes”. Transport has been since the beginning of creation as the oldest or one of the oldest professions on earth.

the industrial revolution will not thrive without the help of transport. though transport itself was a bit slow during the agricultural boom but industrilaization improved the modes of transportation and brouhtg service into it.

You’re walking in the streets. Somebody, walks up next to you and spits on the sidewalk. Pleasant walk right?

There’s always people smoking. Sure there’s nicotine and they can’t help it but it’s your children,your parents and YOU who they’re killing. Or you could be the killer. If your a smoker, why don’t you think that the next time you light a cigarette.

Cars. You can’t stress this enough. They need electricity and petrol. Petrol is UNRENEWABLE. Why can’t you understand that? And all these new cars. Crushing them into tiny squares doesn’t destroy it. Just another waste of energy. So pay for your expensive cars. Go waste your hard work for it’s fuel.

Building roads was a sweet idea. Or that is until your bills increased for pot holes. Having dirt roads aren’t that bad. It’s just Earth.

Gum is annoying. It doesn’t decompose. It’s almost as bad as a plastic bag. And people spit it everywhere. On public transport. Tables. Everything.

So next time you step into the street, don’t throw the can on the floor. Put it in recycling. And you won’t have to write your own obituary.

When you think about it we spend an awful amount of time waiting for things, whether it is waiting for the train, waiting for a page to load, waiting on hold, waiting in a queue. Everyday there is a chance that you have been waiting for something.

Wouldn’t it be good if we never have to wait? Then we could reclaim those few precious minutes of our lives that we never get back! Surely with all the technology around there must be a way of cutting out the waiting times, well I don’t want to disappoint you so let me tell you some ways to save yourself a little bit of time.

Gethuman.com

This is a genius website that will help you spend less time selecting option 1 – 1000 on the endless supply of phone menu’s that we have to go through whenever we call a company. Just search the company you want and which country it is in and hopefully they will have what you are looking for! It will tell you the exact buttons to push to get through to a person so that you don’t have to get confused between all the options. Unfortunately you may still have to spend some time waiting to speak to a human, but at least you would have saved time choosing options.

Transport updates

If you are using public transport then make sure before you leave the house to check the website to see if there are any delays, therefore you will know if you are going to have extra time. Also check traffic report websites, this way you can decide to go a different way if you think you are going to be stuck waiting.

Choose less popular restaurants.

As we all know its the popular ones that you need to wait for your table in, unless you have the pre-sight to book ahead. So why not try some other restaurants? You will save waiting time and might even find a new favourite.

Make your own lunch.

Fed up with spending half your lunch break waiting in a queue for food, then make your own, saves time and money!

Shop online!

How big do you think the queues are right now, how big were they before Christmas?  How much easier it would be if we could just order things and have them delivered. Oh yeah, we can! Wouldn’t it be even better if we could order it gift-wrapped and then we wouldn’t have to do it. Oh yeah, on a lot of sites you can!

If you have enough money ….

Hire a private jet! You wont have to wait in line with people at the airport as you will be the only one on the flight! Also if you have the money a private helicopter will get you to places faster than a car, you just may need to find a place to land, could be the same as looking for a space in a car park!

Above all make up your mind to have a max time that you will wait, decide that you will not spend more than X amount of minutes before leaving. So if that means that friend who is always late will have to track you down, so what, she wasted your time, waste some of hers!

Decide today that you are going to start creating more free time by doing less waiting, and enjoy your free time!
