Okay, we all know that not every second of work is a productive one. Studies show that the mind needs to wander, that doodling can be productive and that intermittent short rests (even napping) are healthy strategies.
Where am I going with this? I have a productive way for you to waste a little time, and really, while it is passive, you might gain quite a bit.

Ambassador blogs are a monthly cornucopia of what is going on in public and human services transportation around the country - what are the issues in coordination, veterans mobility, medical and senior transportation, and much more. While I can do a monthly roundup of highlights, I really do think that reading the blogs is a high-benefit twenty minutes that you will spend each month.
Just to tempt you, here are July's highlights.
Highlights for July
Ambassador Dan Dirks discusses the effect of the oil spill on a transit agency in Mississippi.
Ambassador Roland Mross writes about tax revenue declines and decreased transit funding in Indiana.
Ambassador Jo Ann Hutchinson beams her spotlight on travel training for students with disabilities and Mississippi's collaborative planning process.
Ambassador Rex Knowlton has used the very moving words from a letter he received from a grateful parent about the life-changing success that travel training has brought to her and her daughter.
The ambassador blogs are linked from each ambassador's page, accessible from the NRC's homepage at www.NRCtransportation.org.
