People from different places to eat, as what I ate as a cultural habit. There are no right or wrong, good or bad with it. You can not apply a personal bias or knowledge of the food of a particular culture, including his own judge. However, due to significant differences in dietary habits, we found that some cultures are more likely to cause obesity,higher levels of cholesterol or blood sugar, using objective criteria which are usually to measure health. The variety of food in China has resulted in some humorous comments. It is said that the Chinese eat everything with four legs except a table and anything that flies except an airplane.

Quick guide for installation of a protective grille


There are many truck owners who like the look of a protective grille. You may also want to sell have seen happen to a truck mounted on a front and wondered how difficult it would be to install one in your car. regards the installations are also a major reason why people want to buy a watch. Consider some of the methods that are used to being able to mount this equipment in a vanTruck>.

No cutting required

The biggest fear of most truck owners are holes in the truck bumper, so within a framework that will certainly monitor the grid. Fortunately, most of the guards on the market today do not require any cutting or permanent modification of the your vehicle. in general, with mounting screws that connect the frame at the same place as the bumper. Installation is as simple as removing the front bumper orBumper is bolted to the extender, grille guard, and then connect the bumper. The extender assembly protrude from the ground or through the top of the bumper, depending on the design and bolt guard the mountains. This type of mounting frame provides maximum strength with minimal installation headaches.

Details, details

There are important things to remember when you remove and reinstall when his truck in front of someBumper. First, we want to make sure that the extender properly before being attached to the bumper back in focus. You can do so by the grid to ensure watch on the summit points to make sure it does not work correctly. Otherwise, it's much easier to make adjustments at this time, while the bumper is out of the car. If you put the rear bumper really want to be the same, is not concentrated to avoidasymmetric appearance or rubbing the screen saver.

Protect yourself

It's usually a good idea to use the tape to change the color or lighting, the ability to protect in contact with the bumper or barrier protection during installation. could be a bumper or grille guard a bit 'difficult, especially if thick steel, it is best to have a friend, the test to help with the installation and final assembly.

Truckers strike

When you're an experienced driver directly from the truck driver training or attend a truck driver schools across the country, we need to see the outcome of this latest attack on truckers. Mainly its operators, many drivers for a few days to protest against 'high cost of diesel fuel. At $ 4.00 a gallon, no one can blame them. If a rig is 300 gallons of fuel, $ 1,200 just to fill the tanks is destructive to the seating Profit.

But the strike will have no effect? They are small, demonstrating short-term change actually better? Unfortunately, the answer will more than likely a resounding "no." After a small group of drivers for actions 3-4 days "strike" will get nothing, unfortunately. fall with its operators next year on the track for years, the vast majority of drivers on the road these days are the drivers of the fleet.

Maybe make people interested inTruck> driver training schools and in view of the drivers to the career of a second look at truck driving. However, the owner-operators will be those that the spectacular successes of the cost of fuel. The driver of the company has no concern. The most forward part of the cost of fuel transferred to its customers through a fuel surcharge added, but the load will remain the same. . . cheap. Therefore, the tour operatorLoad compared to low, while in battle with the rising price of diesel. The lorry driver will always be a loser.

Strikes of this kind simply does not work. These are all drivers of trucks and the power to impose this effort to make changes. And that, my friends, where is the problem. A few hundred riders from here to there can not change. . . should be done by people of thousands. . . No, millions.

EightCDL million motorists in the U.S. today, and most of these drivers have participated nationwide truck strike to draw attention of Congress and and be taken seriously. Now what should I do? Hundreds of thousands of truck drivers, company drivers and operators would have to ban together and shut down their platforms. It would not be for a few days, but for several weeks.

CDL drivers everywhere should have donedecision to stop the flow of freight in this country, and for some time, if the impact would be visible. This means that shops are empty. . . everything all take for granted: food food, clothes, cars, everything. . . end. The public may not always realize that everything they buy. . . everything you buy in a store or dealer, or anywhere. . . comes from a truck driver. The boats can still access theThe aircraft can still fly and train can continue to operate, but the driver of the truck, the goods in the shops. The truck driver, public transport in general.

Because the operator is something of an endangered species, particularly the driver to leave the company that manages the way in those days. Therefore, the fear factor is set. . . "If I turn off and the strike would lose my job." In addition to creating the empty shelves in the shops of our country, what kind of suffering that could lead toinnocent? A mother needs baby food, but the platform is due to truckers strike empty? It 'a difficult situation and difficult to make a call. The driver of the truck and / or your family can not pay bills because of high fuel costs factored in with the low cost of freight.

The positive side is that the shelves can be recharged at an alarming rate the professionalism of the pilots of our nation. But this is the only wayDriver to make a change. For those who attend the school for training drivers of trucks or light truck driver, drivers also have the options that one day running a well organized massive strikes against other CDL. A strike. . . a "real strike... this scale, responding to those in power.
