_custom-vw-tackles-brutal-desert-race.webp "A group of friends have brought their skills together to transform an old-school Volkswagen Beetle, named Tope, in order to take part in one of the world’s most ruthless races. The Baja 1000 is a Mexican desert race which takes place annually in the Baja California Peninsula. It’s the longest point to point off-road race in the world, that's run in a single day. Josh McGuckin, one of Tope's mechanics, explained how much of a challenge preparing for the race was for the team. He told FutureStudiosCars: “Driving this car in the Baja 1000 can be summed up for me in one word, exhausting.” To an outsider the car would appear as just a “really old bugg” but once inside, “suddenly it just comes to life”. Starting with the VW Beetle was a huge undertaking for the team, as they had to modify the classic 1970 car to be suitable for the incredibly harsh conditions. However, the extreme nature of this race did take its toll on the well-loved vehicle, “every time you come back from a race, you’re constantly rebuilding and replacing everything”, Josh explained. The bugg may not be the fastest car, but it’s capable of doing the job for this team. And the teamwork paid off as Tope triumphantly reached the finish line. Josh spoke about his relief and elation, “every time we race this car, we learn something new.\")

The Dali has been stuck since March 26th when it crashed into a support column under the bridge, killing 6 construction workers. Freeing the ship will ultimately allow it to be refloated and moved, restoring traffic to Baltimore's busy port and relieving thousands of dockworkers, truckers, and business owners. Officials said the detonation went as planned, and crews will now assess any remaining debris before refloating the Dali in the next few days.")

The award show took place consistently from 1992 until 2019 before being halted in 2020 by the Covid-19 pandemic. The ceremony then returned the following two years but was once again put on hold in 2023 due to the Writers Guild of America strike, which started just five days prior. An MTV spokesperson reports that the award show will return in 2025 in a new and reimagined format. Filmmaker Roger Corman dies at 98. Often referred to as 'The King of Bs,' Corman worked on hundreds of films over a seven-decade timespan including The Little Shop of Horrors , Black Scorpion , and Bloody Mama . He helped jumpstart careers and served as a mentor to many of today's most notable directors including James Cameron, Martin Scorsese, and Robert De Niro. Corman passed on May 9 in his California home as revealed by his family on social media. Lea Michele reveals she is expecting her first daughter. The actress/singer celebrated Mother's Day on social media by revealing the sex of her baby.
