Travel active living

In most transport modeling, travel is treated as a cost and disutility in people s lives. Travel time is assumed to be unproductive and wasted. It is treated as distinct from the meaningful and productive activities people perform at the various locations distributed in space and that give rise to travel. The only value of time spent traveling is derived from what is undertaken at the destination (Holley, Jain, Lyons, 2008). Accordingly, it is no surprise that major investments in the tfansportation sector are often justified by the travel time they can save (Jain Lyons, 2008). [Pg.146]

Current research is challenging this position (e.g., Lyons, 2003 Mokhtarian, 2005 Ohmori Harata, 2008). One argument is that the activity of traveling itself can possess a positive utility in people s lives. The individual traveler gains something from being away from or between fixed locations, activities or people. Ory and Mokhtarian (2005) review a list of reasons why daily travel might be desirable for its own sake adventure, variety, independence, status, exposure to the environment, escape, curiosity, and physical/mental relaxation. [Pg.146]

The rotation speed provides an independent variable increasing to decreases the time taken for a species to travel between the disc and the ring and hence increases the likelihood of detecting a short-lived intermediate. All of the above methods critically depend on the species generated at the electrode being active towards further electron transfer at the ring. [Pg.186]

I received yesterday the diploma which the Mineralogical Society at Jena intended for me and which you were so kind as to send me.

At present, to be sure, I am so occupied with the duties of my office, traveling, and botanical work that I scarcely have time to think of other activities, and my field is not so much mineralogy as botany and chemistry however, since I hope to find much worthy of notice on my trips... [Pg.328]

Some of these relationships clearly provide temporary satisfaction and rewards to one or both parties. Lee (2002) studying Taiwanese male travellers reports that activities deriving from the sexual liberation of other parts of Asia are sought out and are synonymous with access to a better freer lifestyle. Additionally, as Cohen (2003) has documented, the sexually-oriented tourism relationships may not always be short-lived. Cohen analysed cross-national marital relationships, some of which commenced in tourism contexts and observed the persistent and expanding financial demands by the women on behalf of themselves and their family. The problems appeared to be the greatest when the foreigner stayed in Thailand. Although an initially difficult period was often encountered, a number of... [Pg.130]
