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.

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»

In archery, a recurve bow is one of the main shapes a bow can take, with limbs that curve away from the archer when unstrung. A recurve bow stores more energy and delivers energy more efficiently than the equivalent straight-limbed bow, giving a greater amount of energy and speed to the arrow.
A recurve will permit a shorter bow than the simple straight limb bow for given arrow energy, and this form was often preferred by archers in environments where long weapons could be cumbersome, such as in brush and forest terrain, or while on horseback.
Self bows, composite bows, and laminated bows using the recurve form are still made and used by bowyers, amateurs, and professional archers.
The modern recurve is the only form of bow permitted in the Olympics (though the compound bow is permitted in some categories at the Paralympic Games) and is the most widely used by European and Asian sporting archers.
Elongarrow is a great bow for someone who is just getting into archery or wanting to try this style of bow out.…More»
