Abstract: A tire tread includes a middle rib formed by two circumferential main grooves extending along a tire circumferential direction, a first shoulder rib disposed axially outward from the center rib and one of the circumferential main grooves, and a second shoulder rib disposed axially outward from the center rib and the other of the two circumferential main grooves. The middle rib has a repeated group of three sipes: a first sipe being inclined radially inward a first angle relative to a radial direction, a second sipe being inclined radially inward a second angle relative to the radial direction, and a third sipe being inclined radially inward a third angle relative to the radial direction. The second angle is between ?0.5 degrees and +0.5 degrees. The first and third angles are oppositely radially inclined to each other and the radial direction.

Abstract: A system, method and device are provided, for creating multimedia playlists. A visual module aggregates at least one image file targeted from one or more visual media fields. A music module aggregates multiple audio files targeted from one or more audio media fields. A time module registers allocated mix duration and references elapsed mix duration versus the allocated mix duration, A news module aggregates topical information targeted from one or more news fields, pertaining to at least one of the sound files, as the sound file is added to the playlist. A publishing module compiles the aggregated visual and sound files, respectively, while updating the aggregated news. Provided the elapsed mix duration is less than or equal to the allocated mix duration, a discrete playlist is displayed on a User interface console as the sound files are played, when prompted by the system or the User.

Abstract: A structure for a tread pattern of a pneumatic tire includes a radially extending pedestal, a first set of cylindrical voids extending radially through the pedestal, a second set of cylindrical voids extending radially through the pedestal, and a radially extending void ring circumscribing the pedestal.
