Tires are part of the backbone of a car, truck, piece of construction equipment or bicycle. Tires add traction, braking, steering and load support to vehicles while also absorbing shock and creating a smooth and comfortable ride. They are o-shaped parts that can be pneumatic or solid and fit around the wheels of the vehicle to protect the wheels and add to their effect. A solid tire consists of rubber, metals and plastic parts.

In the past tires have been made of steel and sometimes even iron and were placed on wooden wheels. They were used for carts and wagons. The steel or iron was melted in a fire so it could be easily molded onto the wooden wheel of the cart or wagon. As time has gone on the advancement of tires has done the same, becoming more developed and safer.

There are tons of different types of tires, all of them bringing different features to the table. There is the all-season, all-terrain, spare, run-flat, off-the-road and mud and road tires. All of these can be found on a variety of different vehicles. The most commonly used tire of that group is the spare tire. Each and every car that comes off of the lot has a spare tire. The spare tire is just what it says; a spare. The spare tire is used when one of the regular tires is flat due to a puncture. It is usually kept in a compartment in the trunk of each vehicle.

The all-terrain tire is mostly used on SUVs and trucks. The all-terrain tire helps trucks and SUVs drive through the woods, through mud or through any difficult terrain that the vehicle might encounter. These tires keep the vehicle from getting stuck in the mud or any other slop the environment will throw at it. These tires also have stiffer sidewalls to help prevent punctures to the tire when driving off-road.

The run-flat tire is one of the most interesting new inventions in the automotive world today. The run-flat tire helps drivers avoid pulling off the roadway to change tires because the vehicle can still run on the flat tire but for a limited distance and at a limited speed. This enables the driver to get the car to a safe area, not close to the roadway where injury could occur, and change the tire in a parking lot.

Tires also come in all different sizes. Tires need to be manufactured large enough for construction equipment and small enough for motorcycles. They are also used for airplanes and bicycles. Tires create a smooth ride for vehicles, eliminating the bumps that the road may cause. There is one problem with tires; if the car has a poor wheel alignment then the tires can wear down unevenly, which can lead to a tire bursting while driving. Always check the tires treads to make sure they are wearing down evenly on each side of the tread. If they aren't then the tires would need to be replaced very frequently.

Culture Shock (And how to survive it!)

Culture shock is real. It is universal, powerful and usually unexpected. That’s why it comes as a shock!

Our home cultures are deeply embedded during childhood. We don’t need to do anything for this to happen. Just grow up and take part in society, meet our fellow-countrymen, keep up with fashion, technology, and current affairs. Culture is often defined as “the way we do things around here”, and this goes for entire national cultures, regional, local and even business cultures. It’s the collection of, often unspoken, rules that regulate behaviour.

Move, as I did, from the UK to Japan and the difference in the way things are done really hits you in the face! My first reaction was excitement. I felt like an explorer in an exciting new universe. I was trying out a new language, a new geography, new technologies, new standards of dress, transport, behaviour…everything was full of interest and possibilities. That’s stage one of culture shock. The exciting stage. It can last from a few days to several months.

After a while you begin to adapt. The exciting things start to become normal. Some of the new things stop being exciting and start to become annoying. In my case I discovered after a few months’ trial and error that I really did not like Japanese food. I took for granted the superb train system and the wonderful level of service in shops. But I spent time searching out ways of not having to eat sushi, sashimi, seaweed, raw egg, and tasteless noodles. I really didn’t (and still don’t) like it. It irritated me that good ingredients were being wasted to produce such unpalatable (to me!) meals. I also grew irritated that my obvious “foreign-ness” made me stand out in crowds, and that the Japanese always used to stare at foreigners. In my case this discontented stage lasted more than six months.

Then comes a more balanced stage. Acceptance that some aspects of the new culture are great, some are not, but that a fulfilling and generally happy life is perfectly possible. You stop getting cross about the things you don’t like and cannot change, and you consciously relish the aspects of the new culture that work well for you. My guess would be that this stage of balanced acceptance of the new culture can go on for years.

Sadly there is one final kick of culture shock that you have to deal with. It’s called “re-entry shock”. When you go back home, either for a visit, or permanently, the differences between your home culture and the one to which you have adapted will shock you all over again. Things familiar from your childhood take on unfamiliar overtones. Some are great. The sound of your mother tongue, the sight of your family and friends. But there will certainly be things you used to take for granted that now seem absurd, poorly organised, or backward. In my case the Britain I returned to after three years in Japan seemed to be very badly organised, rather unsafe, and to suffer from very poor service in shops and transport. (This was the 1970s, by the way. Things have improved a lot since then!). But it was wonderful to be able to blend into the crowd with no one noticing me, and staring at me. And to be able to buy clothes that fit me! The sense of reverse culture shock, albeit in a greatly reduced form, has never really left me.

So that’s a very brief examination of culture shock. Now, how do you survive it? The good news is that you have already started the process. Just reading about a problem prepares you a bit for the experience of it. The more you read, especially about the specific place you are going to, the easier you will pass into the stage of balanced acceptance of the new culture. The magnitude of the shock you experience depends on where you come from, and where you are going. So it’s very helpful to talk to people who understand what those differences are, and who can pick out the key differences you need to prepare for.

If you live in IELTS Jakarta, and are preparing or hoping to live abroad to work or study, speak to the Aim team. They can help you minimise the shock of your relocation, and get into the stage of balanced acceptance really quickly. That’s where you want to be; it’s the stage during which you’ll be most relaxed, most productive, and least stressed. Good luck!

Why are people so shocked when they hear that an famous actor is gay?

If you think about it boys in the drama club are mostly gay a lot of gay guys want to be famous if you meet a actor thats not so famous that does local plays and little broadway productions would you be shocked if you found out he was gay? i dont understand why people are so shocked i think a lot of actors are gay even some that are married and if they came out of the closet i wouldnt be shocked nor would i stop watching their movies etc i just dont understand why people dont see that.....

People only see what they want to see. Besides, they think most gays are horrible people that only want to corrupt America. Therefore, they cannot see how an intelligent, well rounded person can be anything besides straight.
