One Night in Portland
In the day, the area surrounding 2nd avenue is filled with forklifts and union workers loading and unloading freight into the rundown, yet OSHA-compliant warehouses.
But this is Sunday. And it’s 6 o’clock. The back-up beeps of trucks have long ceased and the air is filled with enthusiasm and exhausts.
This is Portland’s weekly Red Door Meet. And the streets are crammed with people checking out the artwork parked in front of warehouse docks, dumpsters, under bridges, and across many blocks.
It draws a huge crowd, and so it should. It’s not every day where a Toyota Soarer, R32 Skyline, a Gallardo, and a Baja Ranger shares the same meet.
The car is a huge draw but the lively atmosphere and the social aspect has taken up its own life.
And that’s what Red Door has become. It’s more than just cars. It’s a social gathering. People come here to check out other people’s passion and artwork and to chat and chill. There’s even a food truck. What’s more, there’s even a dyno.
There is a scene in the movie “Fast and Furious One” before Paul Walker drives his Eclipse so fast that his floor board fell, drivers all gather on a deserted street. People were chilling and checking out each other’s cars. This is the atmosphere of RDM.
The crew of PanthyHeist is all too familiar with the weekly event. But even when we frequent it so much, we’re still amazed by everything that is happening. This has become more than just a weekly car meet. This is a social gathering. This is where you come to hang out with your friends to chat with really cool strangers. This is where even unsuspecting passersby take notice and gawk around. And mostly, this is Portland’s nightlife.
Until next time,
Cheers.

Ah surfing, the sport of champions. It provides incredible exercise, a raw immersion in nature, and a lifetime of challenges.
The best part is there are no lift tickets, tee times, or club fees. All you really need is your body, a wave, and a board. That being said, there is a lot of gear that is made for surfing that will make your experience a lot more comfortable, especially if you live in colder climates.
Innovations in surf tech have grown by leaps and bounds in the last decades, and so we’re presenting to you our favorite stuff for riding the waves.
The POWER WAVE (Customized IXPE Soft Top Surfboards ) surprised me by being one of the most user-friendly boards I’ve ever tried. It paddles incredibly well and is very stable under-foot. It has a ton of drive to get down the line, but it also turns effortlessly.
In other words, it can grovel (i.e. catch small, weak waves) decently well but can still hold a line when things get critical. It’s good with steep, late drops, too.It’s so versatile that if I could only have one board, this would probably be it.…More»

Leather sofas are a stylish, high-end addition to any living space – and with proper care, these sofas can last for many years.
When shopping for a leather sofa, be sure to read the wording of the product carefully before making a purchase. “You might think you’re getting a leather sofa, but it could actually be ‘real leather’ [bonded leather] or faux leather,” says Ariel, founder and lead designer at Design Studio.
A good example of genuine leather is a raised sofa cushion – the bottom of the cushion is usually fabric to minimize cost. "
When researching a leather sofa for this piece, we considered factors such as the type of leather used, color options, cushion padding, and overall structural quality. The Filo Furniture leather sofa is our top choice, thanks to its range of sizes and leather colours, as well as its high-end construction and comfortable cushions.
Here are the best leather sofas.…More»

Electric scooters are everywhere these days and are great for commuters on their way to work, students heading to class and anyone else who wants to have a fun time while travelling from A to B. They’re convenient, speedy and eco-friendly. And I can tell you from first-hand experience, they’re a lot cheaper to repair than a car.
After riding and testing many models for miles and miles, I think the best overall electric scooter for most people will be the SZ happy-go H10. It’s great for long trips and isn’t so fast that it will be intimidating for beginners.
SZ happy-go Some are last-mile scooters, smaller and built for short distances at slower speeds but easier to carry and store. Larger scooters handle bumps better and can travel farther and at higher speeds.
Before purchasing, consider the distance you need to travel and the total weight you’ll be carrying (including yourself). The environment you’ll be riding in – hills, flat roads, wet terrain — matters too. …More»

What is lead acid battery used for?
Lead acid batteries can be found in a wide variety of applications including small scale power storage such as UPS systems, starting lighting and ignition power sources for automobiles, along with large, grid-scale power systems.
Despite being relatively heavy, lead-acid batteries are still preferred over other lightweight options owing to their ability to deliver large surges of electricity (which is required to start a cold engine in an automobile).
Lead-acid batteries provide a quick power boost in a short time. Hence, they dominate the automotive aftermarket. In the automotive industry, lead-acid battery is the only available battery technology for scalable link interface (SLI) applications due to its high cold-cranking performance.
The lead-acid batteries are the most consolidated technology, offering a competitive cost, high reliability and most importantly, since they do not require regular checking of the electrolyte level, they have been considered ‘maintenance free batteries’.…More»
