The Quasiturbine (Qurbine) is a no crankshaft rotary engine having a 4 faces articulated rotor with a free and accessible centre, rotating without vibration nor dead time, and producing a strong torque at low RPM under a variety of modes and fuels. The Quasiturbine is also an optimization theory for extremely compact and efficient engine concepts.
The Quasiturbine's high power-to-weight ratio makes it exceptionally suitable for aircraft engine and its no-vibration attributes make it suitable for use in, for example: chainsaws, powered parachutes or snowmobiles. Variations on the basic Quasiturbine design also have applications as air compressors and as supercharger.

Korean mechanical company founded in 1971 which, aside from cars, makes TVs, ships, boat motors, computer screens and other miscellaneous computer parts, some heavy machinery, agricultural machines, and some other stuff. However, most of the products beside their cars, computer parts, and some TVs will stay in Korea.
Hyundai cars are known for having incredible fuel efficiency, but after the first 4 or 5 years the maintenance falls to shit and loses the performance it had just a few years earlier. This unfortunately causes these cars to have poor resale value. Having noticed this, the company started working harder on the cars, which are becoming more and more dependable with a longer life and are starting to maintain their value. (Similar story to Samsung, which is also a Korean company and now one of the largest electronic companies in the world)

A group of high school dropouts that desperately wants to be like the infantry. Organization and organic weapon systems suited for a shock force only; the marine corps is commonly used as a conventional infantry force and subsequently manages to take more casulties than their infantry counterparts. Marines are too arogant to be called "soldiers" and too stupid to take cover when a fire-fight starts.
When you need a force of unintelligent drones, ready to take an objective by sustaining tremendous casulties, thus depleting the enemies ammunition, send in the marine corps. When you want an objective destroyed by overwhelming firepower, superior tactics, a feat of combined arms mastery, staying power, and the flexability to perform a variety of missions.....send in the Army!!!

A show that used to be hilarious, but has started to suck shit in the last 3 or 4 season, when the episodes made no sense and became like every other show on Fox.
