Nissan Recall. Today the automaker Nissan has announced a worldwide recall of about 540,000 vehicles. The recall is due to some faulty brake pedal issues. No accidents related to the faulty brake has been reported yet but Nissan would like to be sure that no one gets hurt before they issue a recall. Here is a bit of a report by AFP about the Nissan recall:

TOKYO (AFP) – Japan’s Nissan Motor said Wednesday it would recall nearly 540,000 vehicles worldwide, most of them in the United States, due to brake pedal defects and faulty fuel gauges.

Nissan — Japan’s third-largest carmaker, and partnered with France’s Renault — said it plans “to inspect and, if necessary, repair brake pedal pins and fuel-gauge components on certain trucks and minivans”.
“No accidents or injuries have been reported with these issues,” it added.
The recalls also affect Canada, Mexico, the Middle East, Ukraine, Russia and Taiwan, Nissan North America said in a statement.

The models with faulty brake pedals are the Titan pickup trucks, the Armada and Infiniti QX56 SUVs and Quest minivans built between 2008 and 2010, the company said. Nissan plans to pull 178,916 units from US roads and another 25,869 in other countries to fix the brake pedal pins.

Bachelor Finale 2010. Of course by now you know that it was the 23-year-old Florida fitness consultant Vienna Girardi who was chosen by Jake Pavelka. But if you have missed the airing of The Bachelor Season 14 finale, you would like to know how Jake came to that decision and what are the things that happened before he finally chose the woman who would become his bride.

Jake’s family composed of his two brothers, their wives, and his parents came to meet Tenley Molzahn and Vienna Girardi to help him pick his bride-to-be.After Mr. Bachelor told his love ones that he is “so in love” with both “perfect” women,the gang met a very nervous Tenley.She brought flowers,appeared sweet and opened up about her divorce to Jake’s mother.Next up Vienna who came with a fruit basket , started immediately talking about how “the girls hated me from the beginning.” That sentence was a big turn off for the sisters-in-law who later told Jake that she had a “confrontational” attitude.

Eventually the entire family held a meeting to share their concerns about Vienna whom they found immature.But after another round the sisters go back to Jake and told him that they have changed their mind on Vienna and added that she was a good person.After all was said and done Vienna Girardi and Jake Pavelka got engaged on the beautiful island of ST Lucia.

We did not see that much in the first episode of HBO’s Pacquiao-Cotto 24/7, nothing to be excited about. We saw Manny Pacquiao leaving Baguio because of the typhoon. There is also some hint of a rift between Roach and Pacquiao, the former flew to Los Angeles in not so good mood. Will this affect Pacquiao’s training? Will this affect his performance on November 14, the day of his fight with Cotto?

We also see in the first episode Miguel Cotto spending some quality time with his son, not much. We see him in training too. The first episode left me wanting something out of the show and I hope that I will see that something in episode 2. The video of Pacquiao-Cotto 24/7 Episode 2 is not yet available so i can’t post a link to it here. But if you happen to have missed the first episode, then you can watch it right here.

Today is Father’s Day, so Happy Father’s Day to all fathers out there, good or bad.

Jon and Kate will announce something on the June 22 episode of Jon and Kate Plus 8. What would it be? Many are thinking that it is their divorce that they will announce. The couple has been swimming (and half-drowning) in negative publicity in the last few months and it seems that it won’t stop raining on them soon. I hope what they will be announcing is not their divorce but their decision to quit showbiz and concentrate on their family. Nothing beats having a normal life.

The web is in tattling frenzy about the Kate Gosselin Spanks Leah incident. What’s the big deal? It’s a big deal because the paparazzi wants to see how the strain of negative publicity breaks Kate and Jon.

In Touch published the image of Kate spanking Leah with these words:

These exclusive new photographs show that Kate’s composed demeanor may just be a facade. Behind the scenes, she seems to be unraveling. Around 11 a.m. on June 13, a witness spotted Kate, 34, and the children playing outside of their Reading, Pa., home. When Leah, one of the sextuplets, started blowing a whistle loudly, Kate told her to stop because she was on the phone. But as soon as Leah blew on the whistle again, Kate “seemed to lose her temper” and said, “Did you not hear me?” Then she stormed over to her daughter, grabbed her and hit her. “The girl was screaming and crying,” the witness adds. “Kate just pushed her away and walked off with her coffee. Her older sisters were trying to make Leah feel better.”

Kate replied with this:

Whether the paparazzi are there or not, I am a mother first. I love my children and when they misbehave, I discipline them as I deem appropriate for the situation

I guess celebrity and the papparazzi is causing the Gosselins their marriage.
