![]() Mike had spent nearly everything he had to purchase a car to race in the class along with a Pro Stock Hemi engine. At the time, Mike was racing in Competition Eliminator because that’s what his dad always wanted to do. Mike went on to race with his father for many years, however, Bob passed away in 2004, and that left him at a crossroads with his racing. ![]() The car was totally torn down to a bare chassis and was prepared for drag racing duties with a new engine, full roll cage, and other parts. So, the Cuda was replaced with a 1970 Dodge Challenger and the pair got to work on the new-to-them Mopar. Mike’s dad was totally onboard with him racing and even had an idea: sell the ‘Cuda and buy something they could turn into a racecar. When Mike found out his dad was at the track he was expecting some form of punishment for lying, but the exact opposite happened much to his surprise. The next weekend after he asked me he showed up to the track without saying anything and watched me race from the stands,” Mike says. Eventually, he asked me if I was going to the track and I told him no, of course. I started racing at the track and my dad found out that I was sneaking off so I could race my 1970 440 six pack Cuda at the drag strip. We finally lined up one day and raced, I was hooked after that…and yes, I beat him. “I had a friend that was constantly hounding me when I was 16 to race him. Mike’s parents barnstormed across the state of Ohio racing as much as they could, but soon their growing family needed attention and it was time to take a break from the track.Īnd while you can take the racer away from the track, but you can’t remove the racing from their soul, and that was clearly passed on to Mike. How does drag racing fit into all of this for Mike? Well, that can also be traced back to not only his father, but his mother, as well. ![]() You couldn’t go to a Chevy dealership and get a car that had pizzazz, but you could go to a Dodge dealer and get a car with so many different options,” Mike explains. The colors of the cars, the body lines, and the themes they had for the vehicles got my attention, they just had personalities that I liked. When I was growing up nobody was out there really pounding on them because the parts were just too expensive versus a Chevy or Ford. “What is it that I like about the Mopar brand? Well, the Mopars are the odd man out in racing. So, it shouldn’t be any surprise that he’s running a stunning HEMI-powered 1968 Dart in the NMCA’s Nostalgia Super Stock class. To Mike, Chevy and Ford just never offered any cars that really grabbed his interest. His dad always owned Mopar performance vehicles, so Mike really didn’t see the need to stray far from what his family had always known. Mike’s exposure to classic Mopar muscle came from his father, Bob, who worked for Chrysler back in the 1960s and 70s. The Mopar brand has been the automotive focus for the entire Schaefer family for decades and that focus isn’t going to change anytime soon, if you ask Mike. Mike Schaefer isn’t one of those people, especially when it comes to the kind of car he enjoys….it’s Mopar or no car for him, 365 days a year. This particular car may have rocked the manual as evidenced by a hole in the floor where the shifter should be if the powertrain was present.Having plenty of variety in life is what really makes some individuals happy - they strive to find and try new things nearly every day. It sat under a fiberglass hood with the big scoop, connected to either a beefed-up automatic or a four-speed manual transmission. It adds all kinds of go-fast parts, chief among them being the 440 Six Pack, rated at 390 horsepower back in the day. That's a 1969 Dodge Super Bee, but Mopar aficionados will recognize the hood scoop as belonging to the mid-year Super Bee A12, where A12 denotes a special option code. The same holds true for the orange car sitting beside it. As we mentioned previously, the engine is sadly not under the hood. The video further identifies the car as being painted a rare shade of blue with a blue interior. ![]() The 1971 Charger in this barn find is an R/T model, equipped with the 440 and a four-speed manual transmission according to its VIN. The redesigned body still carried some muscle under the hood, as the 426 Hemi and 440 Six Pack V8 endured as engine options. The second-generation Dodge Charger from 1968 through 1970 gets the glory, but the third-generation Charger that dropped in 1971 has a devoted following as well.

Down South, we call this a sitting salad. In this salad, cucumbers and onion balance the peas' creaminess with crunch, and tomatoes burst juiciness. Because they're nice and mild, I drench them with a hot sauce dressing, honeyed yet sharp with garlic and mustard. And they're delicious.īlack-eyed peas are tender, skin to center, and this helps them soak up sauces. That tradition comes from a long history of black-eyed peas symbolizing luck and prosperity in Africa, where they’re part of spiritual ceremonies too. We eat them for good luck on New Year's in a rice dish known as hoppin' John. But they hold a special significance in the heart of every African-American. ![]() Originally eaten only by slaves, black-eyed peas became a part of all Southerner's meals. That's why they're sometimes called cowpeas and field peas. In the Carolinas, slaves planted black-eyed peas in the same way they had back home - along edges of fields to keep down weeds and enrich the soil. The crop spread through the continent, then traveled in slave ship holds to America. More than five thousand years ago, they were domesticated in West Africa.

We discussed the same tool in an article from summer 2012 called ‘ Creating a Bootable DOS Flash Drive the Easy Way‘, as it allows for simple creation of bootable MS-DOS flash drives, as the title suggests.Īfter the look at Rufus, we’ll continue on to UNetbootin, Microsoft’s diskpart (a tool built into Windows), a quick mention of another official Microsoft tool, but one the company no longer promotes for Windows 7 and 8, as well as the latest method, the Media Creation Tool. We mentioned Rufus above, and that’s the tool we’re going to lead in here with, as we consider it to be the simplest to use, and the most effective. What about Windows Vista? Like Windows 7, 8, and 10, Vista too can be installed from USB media with these same methods, but due to that fact that most have moved on from it in favor of 10, it’s not a big focus. We strongly suggest you skip to the dedicated part of this article that explains the problems with Windows XP and USB support. Different version of Rufus (explained later) have better luck with the XP process than others. If the motherboard in question happens to support a legacy BIOS mode, then it might work. Windows XP over USB is still temperamental, and there is a good chance that it just won’t work with your system, so please keep this in mind.įor starters, modern UEFI-equipped machines are not designed to support such an old OS, so chances are that it will not even install, or even be detected in the first place. Given the fact that Windows XP has reached end-of-life status and doesn’t officially support installation over USB, we have to outline a number of problems and conditions in order to get it working. To give an overview of what to expect from each solution, refer to this success table: Over the course of this article, we’re going to be looking at five different solutions that accomplish the exact same thing: Creating a USB-based Windows installer if one doesn’t work, the next one should (at least, that’s the hope). While it’s beyond the scope of this article, those who truly want a fast install experience can slipstream USB 3.0 support into the install media, which on current chipsets and an SSD target can allow you to install Windows in under 4 minutes flat. Even if a DVD has been burned at the highest commercial speeds, it won’t be able to compete with flash memory which offers far improved IOPS performance (operations per second) – it’s the same reason why SSDs are much faster for booting an OS and loading applications than a mechanical hard drive the seek times are minuscule in comparison. Ever walk around with a disc in your pocket? It looks a bit odd.įor us, performance and reliability are the key reasons why we’ve opted to use USB-based installers in lieu of discs, especially with USB 3.0 being much more common. Discs can be easily scratched, while well-built USB flash drives can generally handle a bit of abuse. To start, USB media is more durable than disc-based media. ![]() Admittedly, the time and effort of creating the drive might make it best-suited for system builders, but for people like us, who juggle test machines, USB is a no-brainer.
I encountered many glitches, though still probably 1/10th as many as I encountered in Decentraland. It's still very much in early-access mode and feels like it's in alpha release. Graphics-wise, it's similar to a very budget version of Genshin Impact or Breath of the Wild. Overall, there's just nothing special about Blankos Block Party that would make me want to keep playing it.Ĭhainmonsters is a 3D Pokemon-like game. You can bridge your Blankos to the Ethereum mainnet using Mythical's website, and then sell them as NFTs on OpenSea. The only connection to a public blockchain is through the Ethereum bridge. It's so private there isn't even a blockchain explorer. This blockchain is only used for the 2 Mythical games: Blankos and Rivals (an NFL fantasy-league-like collection game). The Blankos and player items are minted on the completely-private Mythical blockchain. You can't connect your wallet to the blockchain or marketplace. Vibe Collection mode: Try to collect more vibe objects than everyone else in a limited timeīlockchain: 1/5 - Barely uses the blockchain and would do just fine without one.īlankos Block Party barely qualifies as a blockchain game, so I wasn't curious enough to stick around. There are only 3 modes, and I got pretty bored of them quickly. ![]() Vibe Collection is like a typical timed fetch/item collection quest, and who enjoy fetch quests?.Shooting: is like Unreal Tournament, but way worse.Racing is like Mario Kart + Fall Guys, but worse. ![]() The only reason Mario Party and Wii Sports were fun for me when I younger is because I played with my roommates, and they were stupid fun when we were all drunk.

Superhuman strength, speed, and durabilityĮcho ( Maya Lopez) is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics.Expert martial artist and hand-to-hand combatant.It’s impossible to prognosticate, and so many filmmakers are making good movies now. ![]() No, I want to make a movie, and I have one I’m working on right now before that last water gets sucked into the ground. Obviously I couldn’t do that by myself or with an exclusively American team, so hiring Pablo and Claudia were core early decisions to ensure that I wasn’t completely messing up the idea of a story that roots in both places.ĭo you see yourself staying in television instead of going back to film? But whether she had or hadn’t, the idea here was to make something that would genuinely work for both North American and Latin American audiences. Kathryn has not ever expressed any great interest in doing TV. Is that why this wasn’t another partnership with Kathryn? You’ve said that it was important here to work with Latin-American directors, such as Pablo Trapero and Claudia Llosa. There’s no such thing! A movie is two hours or three. Everyone says, oh, a series is a like a 10-hour movie but that’s completely nonsensical. It’s not just taking a movie and multiplying it by five. The other thing is that 10 hours is a tremendously long narrative runaway that gave me the opportunity to develop characters more than in a feature film. One of which was that the film business is changing every week basically, and I’m not sure it’s getting better. I had started thinking about doing something in Latin America as a film, but a couple things happened that moved it over to television. And now with Echo 3, which follows two black-ops soldiers (Luke Evans and Michael Huisman) who travel to Colombia to stage a personal rescue mission, Boal gets to ask and answer the kind of heavy-duty questions that he has been exploring his entire career. Boal is an attuned and engaged interview subject who seems to enjoy giving as much as he gets – the kind of storyteller with one foot in Hollywood, the other in the real world, all the while aware that neither is easy to navigate. “I would take a whack at that answer, but I’m curious what your opinion is? Because I have a feeling you’re more aware of the landscape than I am,” Boal says after being asked how Echo 3′s mix of mercenary action and geopolitical intrigue stands out from the current glut of streaming series fighting for attention.Īnswering a question with a question isn’t just a cute journalism trick of evasion, though. And today, while sitting down for an interview to discuss his new Apple TV+ series Echo 3, Boal is still asking the questions. The Oscar-winning screenwriter of director Kathryn Bigelow’s The Hurt Locker – the beginning of a strong collaboration between the two that has since delivered Zero Dark Thirty and Detroit – Boal started his career as an investigative journalist, covering politics and crime for The Village Voice, Rolling Stone and Playboy. Mark Boal cannot help but still play the journalist.
