Although carabiners are primarily used for climbing and mountaineering, there are numerous other uses that you should consider before making a buying decision. Technicians who frequently climb poles for work may use carabiners to secure themselves as they move upward. Survivalists also keep them on hand to secure the gear and make emergency repairs. Some people even use carabiners as improvised keychains to hold multiple keys or shopping cards. Moreover, a carabiner can be one of the many exceptional gifts for outdoor enthusiasts.

One of the main issues 4WD owners have with their vehicles is that straight out the of the dealership there’s one important omission – a decent light setup. Even for cars designed to be used primarily off-road, the only lights provided are standard headlights, and if you spec up, fog lights.

I’m sure there’s nothing more fun than splashing around in the pool when the weather is warm and inviting. And for most parents, keeping their kids entertained and engaged this time of year can be challenging. That’s why it’s so important to create an imaginative atmosphere that will inspire children, turn on their imagination and make them look forward to spending time outside.

Have you ever just looked down a busy street and wondered what precisely was buried underground? If you haven’t, don't feel bad. In fact, very few people would ever be likely to; and that in itself is a testament to how accomplished we are at burying our infrastructure. The ground is teeming with meticulously concealed power and communications lines, as well as gas, water and sewer lines that most people are perfectly oblivious to. For utility workers, municipal employees, general contractors, and even private landowners though, this well-buried infrastructure presents an obstacle that can go from being a casual footnote to a major incident in an instant.

If you’re serious about performance and a faster and more responsive car, you need to dig deep into the engine block. Higher horsepower numbers, better torque and low-down pulling power often involves swapping out the stock “bottom-end” parts – the pistons, connecting rods and crankshaft. This is where a few careful modifications can produce some interesting results when taking your car out for a spin on the track.

There are two things that are absolutely essential to the serious bowhunter. The first is the ethical, sportsmanlike manner in which they engage their quarry; and the second is, once they’ve engaged it, dispatching it as quickly and as mercifully as possible. It implies an unspoken obligation to hunting with the sharpest, most effective broadheads available.

Making its entry into the world of fashion back in the 90s as the ultimate skatewear among young people, streetwear has been gaining more and more popularity. It’s been less about the clothes only, and more about culture. With its casual, comfortable and oversized pieces, it’s been the recognisable sign of many young people through the years, making it easy for them to say ‘this is who I am’ without saying a word. Such statement-making style has found its way to many fashion styles, and nowadays there’s streetwear-inspired clothing everywhere.

Who doesn’t want more power and low-down torque from their engine? Modifications to stock engines have existed as long as the internal combustion engine itself, and are often carried out by racing enthusiasts with a little more knack in getting the power increase they need. With engines today going down the downsizing path, there’s the tendency to see the lower displacement helped out by one or two turbines to force more air in the cylinders. Peak power is produced relatively high in the rev range, so you’ll be having your right foot down longer until you get some push. The alternate path to all this is to increase engine displacement. This is where stroker engines and stroker kits come into play.
