In technology news, the motor company Hyundai  has had to recall a little under 150000 of their Sonata models.  Why?  Because of a problem with the steering wheel that could cause the driver to LOSE COMPLETE CONTROL OF THEIR VEHICLE.  That's a pretty big flaw in a car because i personally like to drive my car on roads not into rivers.  Also shouldn't the steering wheel be something that should be examined a little bit before being sent out into the world? How do you overlook something like that 140000 times?  Not to worry though, it won't affect Hyundai sales according to representatives from the company.  Well that's just good and dandy.  Also this may have been caused by their American manufacturing branch which just goes to show that Americans have not been able to build a car since the Model-T

hello halo.....reach

So in entertainment/technology news Halo:Reach was released to the public last tuesday the 14th.  I didn't really have much of a desire for it until i realized that the last game i bought was last year(Left 4 Dead 2)  so i succumbed to tempation and like a boss went and purchased the game.  I brought him and already inserted the plastic CD into the plastic muncher(i played the game).  After two hours of online, one energy drink and one chocolate chip pop tart i was able to get my own personal review of the game.  The story precedes the events of the first Halo game which came out in 2001 in which the player controls the character known as noble 6.  The game then shows the course of events which sets up the story for the first Halo game.  The multiplayer has been altered from the previous Halo games.  "perks" are available in some game types such as camoflauge or the ability to sprint.  My personal favorite is the jet pack.  Some weapons have been altered such as the battle rifle which used to shoot in 3 round bursts but is now only a oneshot at a time weapon.  New game modes have been added such as headhunter.  In this game for every player killed a skull is released that a player can pick up.  The player gets points by taking the goals to a base that is located around the map.  Overall i think this Halo is the best multiplayer game since modern warfare 2 but it could be trumped by the new call of duty or the next gears of war game.  i also consider Reach to the be the best halo multiplayer game.  The storyline is classic halo and is worth trying to beat in cooperative campaign.

A recent discovery in psychology shows that children whose parents have suffered from post traumatic stress disorder may also have the symptoms of PTSD.  The investigation began when a trait was noticed in children whose parents survived the holocaust.  Scientists and Psychologists began to test to see if this became a genetic trait.  Using rats and isolating them from their parents they were able to reenact PTSD in rats. they then let the rats reproduce and the resulting offspring showed the same symptoms of PTSD.  This is frightening because it shows that we as humans how affected we are by our surroudings and exactly how little we are in control of ourselves

in entertainment news, the movie Machete came out in theatres this weekend and i had the pleasure of seeing it opening day.  After leaving the theatre i stood outside in silence thinking "wow, that was....something."  The plot was nothing unique but that is okay because of its fair share of violence, gore, humor, and nudity throughout, which made the film very enjoyable and entertaining.  Although the ending was.....different.  I won't go spoiling anything.  The cast was very good.  With convict turned actor Danny Trejo as Machete and some rather surprising supporting actors like Jessica Alba and Robert DeNiro.  And lets not forget Steven Seagal as the villain Torrez.  The action was for the most part highly implausible but highly entertaining. Let's just say that the audience be laughing their guts out.  Overall i give this movie a 4/5 simply due to the fact that its wickedly entertaining.
