National Weather Service Launches Advance Warning Disaster Model
September 30, 2014 by Brian K. Sullivan
Neighborhoods about to be hit by tornadoes and pilots heading into turbulence will get more warning from the National Weather Service starting today.
At least, that's the promise of a new forecast model that has been under development for the past five years by the U.S. Earth Systems Research Laboratory.
The system, called the high-resolution rapid-refresh model, can look at areas 2 miles across, compared with a minimum of 8 miles previously, and create a three-dimensional picture of the atmosphere an hour in advance.
Zooming in on the resolution will provide a more detailed snapshot of what is happening, said Geoffrey DiMego, branch chief and meteorologist at the weather service's Environmental Modeling Center in College Park, Maryland. He said he likes to compare it to a digital camera.
"The more pixels you have in your picture, the clearer it is," DiMego said by telephone.
A couple of real-world applications of this became apparent when the model was being tested during the past year.
A forecast for the area near Newark Liberty International Airport showed a mass of rainstorms that forced flights to divert from their scheduled path. With the 2-mile resolution, it became clear that there were corridors through the turbulent weather that planes could have used, avoiding delays.
Tornado Warnings
In another case earlier this year, twin tornadoes tore across Nebraska, said Geoffrey Manikin, a meteorologist at the center. While there was a general warning of severe weather across the region, the area where the storms hit started the day with relatively benign conditions.
The new model, however, picked up the possibility of trouble later in the day. That is the kind of help meteorologists across the U.S. are going to have from now on.
Manikin said that although the model couldn't pull out details of the twin tornadoes that erupted, it still would have allowed local authorities to prepare sooner for the potential.
The weather service has had a high-resolution model that ran every six hours, DiMego said. Today's model will run every hour, giving meteorologists five more looks at what may be coming.
The model will also help snow forecasting, Manikin said. The line where rain turns into snow will become clearer, along with the location of pockets of particularly heavy snow. It will be the kind of information cities and towns need to prepare when a storm looms and it may give extra hope to children wishing for a snow day.

Moreover, the Obama administration and some Beltway factions seemed to believe that factional leadership silos in Tehran – and Qom — might be manipulated to serve US strategic interests.
Even before the Lausanne agreement, and in the lead-up towards the Vienna deal, this possibility was practically discussed by US Secretary of State John Kerry, Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif, and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov. In diplomatic talk, these were "discussions of regional issues".
In the bigger picture, and evidently oblivious to a slew of technical problems, the real Masters of the Universe shadowed by the Obama administration also entertained a simple equation; Iranian gas should eventually replace Russian gas to supply the EU. Russia must – and will — suffer.
Forget that Gazprom is a commercial juggernaut on two fronts, Europe and Asia. And forget that Gazprom is coordinating crucial energy moves with Tehran.
Yet the energy wars never stop. NATO's perennial expansion marches in tandem with Washington – successfully — sabotaging South Stream; now Washington will do whatever it takes to sabotage Turk Stream and prevent austerity-devastated Greece from linking to the pipeline. Astonishing as it may seem, Iran is now back in Washington's favor as the only possible, future Pipelineistan star.
Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif has been extra busy "selling" the deal with the P5+1 in Vienna to internal public opinion. He never tires to stress that once foreign businesses enter Iran, they will act as a barrier against the reinstatement of sanctions – which is now the Holy Grail of US neocons and neoliberalcons. Iranian planners are busy drafting the pathways for the reconstruction of the country's core economic sectors. Iranian oil and natural gas projects – many with input from foreign energy majors – may be worth $185 billion by 2020.
On July 20, the UN Security Council unanimously (15-0) endorsed the Vienna deal — and the termination of seven UN resolutions imposing sanctions on Iran since 2006. That provoked shrieks of desperation in that nest of corporate paperboys – the US Congress. Someone should have explained to that lot this is an international deal.
The EU, meanwhile, approved the deal on July 21 – as key EU members, itching to restore trade relations, are now on caravan mode, hitting the Persian trail.
There is a 90-day grace period before sanctions can be lifted, following the UNSC vote. Realistically, most UN and EU sanctions, as well as some US third party sanctions, will be lifted only by early 2016.
The bottom line is that sooner rather than later – whatever the campaign by US neocons and the Israeli and Saudi lobbies — the whole architecture of sanctions, especially financial and banking, is bound to collapse. Iran will soon be open for business for all Eurasia.
On July 18, even before the UN unanimous vote, Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei re-entered the scene with a bang, clarifying where Iran is heading next, geopolitically. He emphasized the nuclear deal would not change Tehran's policy toward the "arrogant" US government. John Kerry was mortified; as if he didn't know, based on his extensive conversations with Zarif.
So there we have it. Washington carrots will buy nothing – as the stick also didn't. What Iran post-sanctions is aiming at is what's brewing in the New Great Game in Eurasia; the interlocking integration promoted by the Chinese-led New Silk Roads and the Russia-led Eurasia Economic Union (EEU); the infrastructure financing of the BRICS New Development Bank (NDB) and the China-led Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB); the prospect of soon joining the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO); the Eurasia-wide offensive to bypass the US dollar; and of course the normalization of trade and commerce with Europe.
The Pentagon's new military strategy made it very clear that the number one issue for the Masters of the Universe – irrespective of who's in the White House — is a concerted push to strategically isolate both Russia and China, and destroy their strategic partnership. As unrealistic as this policy may be, it may even lead to a hot war; the Pentagon does leave the option on the table.
The Masters of the Universe, setting policy way above their paperboys in the Obama administration and already thinking post-2016, are actively engaged in a three-pronged military strategy. The intelligence establishment in Russia, China and Iran – the Top Three Eurasian integration powers – totally knows what is going on.
Failed state Ukraine is just a pretext for NATO's perpetual expansion. Threatening a huge area from Russia's southern underbelly to the west of Iran, ISIS/ISIL/Daesh is being instrumentalized, Divide and Rule-style, to actually end up with Sykes-Picot and pave the way for yet another Pentagon intervention, in Syria, in Iraq, or in "Syraq".
And in Asia-Pacific, the "pivot to Asia", as much as it's just a chimera for the moment, remains in play, centered on interfering with China in the South China Sea.
From Syria to Ukraine all the way to the South China Sea, the trend points to Exceptionalistan creating havoc for the Top Three Eurasian powers. This is a frontal shock of two models – what I have previously described as Eurasia integration against the Empire of Chaos.
The empire won't buy — or bribe — a new vassal. So expect an inevitable, nasty renewal of the Wall of Mistrust even before the architecture of sanctions eventually vanishes.

PROKOFIEV PIANO CONCERTO 4
in B flat major, Op 53 for the left hand alone
The Prokofiev Piano Concerto 4 is one of a number of works for piano and orchestra for the left hand alone commissioned by Paul Wittgenstein, the well known Austrian concert pianist who lost his right arm during World War I. It was completed in 1931 but Wittgenstein, who lived until 1961, never performed the concerto which remained unperformed until 1956 when the German pianist Siegfried Rapp gave its first performnce in Berlin. Rudolf Serkin gave the American premiere in 1958 with Ormandy and the Philadelphia Orchestra. You can hear this paring below.
The Prokofiev Piano Concerto 4 is a four movement work with a gorgeous Andante movement. The two Vivace movements share a good deal of thematic and rhythmic material, and while the first movement is more expansive and looks forward to subsequent movements, the fourth is more of a brief recapitulation of the opening material and brings the concerto to its inevitable conclusion.
N.B. The first of the Ginzburg videos is correctly labeled. The second and third videos are incorrectly labeled as concerto 2, but I assure you this is a complete recording of the fourth concerto.

Something new I've discovered I quite enjoy, is going to a destination that you know very little to nothing about. When Dani signed up for the Rock 'n' Roll half marathon in Liverpool, I said "sure, sounds fun! I've never been to England.". I think at that point all I knew about the city was that it was in England and it's where the Beatles came from. Turns out, it's a really awesome place to visit.
We already had Whit Monday as a holiday, so we took Friday off and made it into a long weekend. It's a super short hop from Amsterdam to Liverpool. I think the flight was only a little over an hour. We stayed at Jurys Inn, right on the wharf, and right next to all the race things (expo, start lines, party, etc). It's a great location as you are next door to the Albert Dock, near the Mersey river (obviously), and walking distance to most things in the city center.
There's a lot going on along the waterfront in Liverpool. You've got the events and arena complex, the Ferris Wheel, Albert Dock, Museum of Liverpool, the "three graces" and the ferry terminal for starters. Since we stayed in this area, we saw quite a bit, including from the ferry and the top of the Wheel of Liverpool.
The water front is full of statues, memorials and so much character.
The museum of Liverpool is beautiful inside and out. In addition to a brand new John and Yoko exhibit, they had a fascinating look at lgbt history in Liverpool and England.
And of course some shots of the three Graces and obligatory pictures from the top of the Wheel of Liverpool.
There's so much in the city center area. Thee's lots of fantastic buildings, monuments, cathedrals, and historic sites. For starters, there's Matthew street, where the Beatles played while they were getting their start playing in the Cavern Club.
On the recommendation of a lady at the race expo, we took a look inside the library and the attached Liverpool world museum. The library, especially the reading room, was incredible. And the museum was quite impressive as well. They had a terracotta warriors exhibit happening, but that was an extra charge, so we stuck to the rest of the museum. That was fine, expecially since they had a really amazing mummy exhibit.
You can't go to Liverpool without seeing some amazing Beatles history. We bought tickets to the "Magical Mystery Tour" on our last day there. It's a two hour bus tour around to many different sites of significance to the band. It included places like Penny Lane, Strawberry Fields, birth homes and other houses where members of the band grew up. All along the way we got stories of how the band got together and became the phenomenon that they did.
The races were decently organised for an international Rock 'n' Roll event. The expo and bib pickup was a bit understaffed, so there was some waiting. Dani seemed to enjoy all three races and was happy with her times. I was my usual supporter / photographer role.
If you find yourself in England and looking for a fun city to visit, definitely give Liverpool a shot. Just know that although the people are very friendly, that Scouse accent is a real bugga' to understand.

How often do you walk into an art exhibit and your breathing just … stops?
So it was, a couple weeks ago when I finally managed to fit a visit to this show into my typical Saturday-in-Minneapolis morning. "The Watercolor Worlds of Lars Lerin" was about to finish its run at The American Swedish Institute and I was determined to check it out, even if my plans on the way there included a 10-mile run, a yoga class, and a change of clothes, but no intervening shower. I knew nothing about Mr. Lerin and don't have any particular attachment to the watercolor medium. However, every show I've seen at ASI has been excellent, I had read that birds are featured in several of the works (ornithology is a growing interest for me), and special Lenten Swedish treats were available at the museum's attached restaurant, FIKA. Lent was about to end; cardamom and sugar taunted me.
Two things struck me as I took a few steps into the exhibit: scale and intensity. Most of the works were huge – well over four by four feet, and some filled entire walls! Large scale allows paintings to be more like sculpture to me: more immersive and rewarding from up close and also from far away. I've rarely seen watercolor paintings that covered such a range of darker shades: I don't think there was much water in this watercolor.
It was a surprise to achieve such success with light play in this medium, and also such fine detail. The photo at the start of this post is a small portion, maybe about 1/4 of the full painting, of a shoreline scene showing a variety of birds, mostly puffins.
The castle (Turnblad Mansion) that is ASI's primary housing was a perfect location for this show, as the large windows and very detailed, reflective surfaces (carved wood and brightly-painted kakelugns are in most rooms) therein added plenty of light as well as some cultural context to these pictures of nature, and of culture juxtaposed with nature. I really did need to remind myself to breathe a few times, while spending an hour or two enjoying this show. What a delight!
"Do Semlor travel well?" (Aye, they do and the cute box kept me from eating them yesterday). Thanks, FIKA at @amswedinstitute for this yummy Easter breakfast!
A few nights ago we cooked a delicious meal of mahi mahi with a vanilla-mango sauce. The tangy-sweet flavor in a main dish reminded us of some of the foods we enjoyed in our SE Asia trip, two years ago.
So does this Creamy Turmeric Smoothie. Add some Greek yogurt! Tasty.
This tasted nothing like Asia but it was similarly different and sweet: Tagliatelle with Caramelized Oranges and Almonds. It was part of our Easter dinner, along with some rotisserie chicken and a salad. It was featured on a recent episode of Splendid Table in which Lynne and Josh Bell together prepared a dish that may have been contemporary with some of the composers whose works he performs. It could be served as dessert (the recipe incorporates 2/3 cup of sugar!), at least if the meal didn't already fill your guests up on some other form of simple sugar.
On the same evening, we watched Cloud Atlas on DVD. It's a pretty high-concept movie, in a good way! A sort of melding of karma, apocalyptic imagining, and open-heartedness. I enjoyed the story, costuming work, and one of the Tom Hanks characters was particularly amusing. And to think, I was wondering what Tom Tykwer was up to, lately! I'd like to read the David Mitchell book, now as I've heard the sequencing may be a little different, and I'm curious about how it handles the continuity of characters/souls, so to speak. I'm still thinking about this film!
Steve had some fun tinkering with technology with Al, last evening to help make a mostly self-running greenhouse. Read about it here!
I've got a month and a half to go before my 25k trail race up on the North Shore (of Lake Superior). Training goes well; my long trail runs are up to 18k /2.5 hours. Yesterday I ran in some new Saucony Peregrine 6 shoes (thanks for the 20% off coupon, REI!): I love my Hokah Challenger trail shoes, but am apprehensive about using such stilts on the rugged Superior single track trails of the race. I'm happy to report that my feet and body felt good during the run and also today! Plus: argyle laces. ARGYLE LACES! And they stay tied.

Installations: Ensure you have installed the software for that particular printer on your computer. You might have connected a printer not recognized by your computer.
Range: Check that your computer and the Bluetooth printer are within the stipulated range. This usually varies from about 10 to 100 meters, within which the two nodes will be able to exchange data.
Settings: Make certain that your computer is set to allow Bluetooth devices to connect. Check your 'Hardware and Sound' section on the control panel to ensure the 'Allow Bluetooth devices to connect to this computer' option is checked.

Although this mushroom looks like a deadly Amanita it is actually edible but not very nice and not worth the risk of confusion with deadly poisonous species.
An ivory white to pale yellow cap covered in off white patches of the remains of the veil.
Gills white, free of the stem and fairly crowded.
Ivory white to yellow with an obvious volval sack and a bulbous base. The skirt is quite large and usually hangs down. The stem can be hollow in older specimens.
Fairly fleshy and superior, (hanging down).
Has an obvious volva with 'guttering'.
Mixed woodland especially with Beech.
The Destroying Angel, Amanita virosa, pictured, or the Deathcap, Amanita phalloides, it is because of this possible confusion and its vile taste that we leave this mushroom well alone. Although edible, not one for the table.
Unpleasant. Smells of raw potato.

Гьокдениз Карадениз () е турски футболист, бивш полузащитник на Рубин Казан. Смятан е за един от най-добрите чужденци, играли за казанския клуб. Има 50 мача и 6 гола за турския национален отбор.

Кариера
Започва кариерата си в Трабзонспор. Дебютира за първия тим през 1997 г. Първоначално Карадениз е централен халф, но впоследствие е преместен на фланга. В началото на новия век е с основен принос за спечелените от тима две поредни Купи на Турция – 2002/03 и 2003/04. На 30 април 2003 г. прави дебюта си за националния отбор на страната в мач с . Същата година участва на Купата на конфедерациите, където изиграва 5 мача и вкарва 2 гола. Впоследствие Карадениз се превръща в лидер за Трабзонспор, а партньорството му с нападателя Фатих Теке (до трансфера на последния в Зенит) става култово за феновете на тима.

На 13 март 2008 г. Карадениз преминава в руския клуб Рубин за 8 милиона евро. Халфът бързо се адаптира към новия си клуб, в който треньорът Курбан Бердиев е изградил сплотен колектив. С играчи като Карадениз, Сергей Семак, Кристиян Нобоа, Сергей Ребров и Саво Милошевич Рубин записва нов рекорд за брой поредни победи в шампионата – 7.

През лятото на 2008 година Карадениз е повикан в състава на Турция за европейското първенство. На шампионата в Австрия и Швейцария турският национален отбор достига до третото място. През септември същата година обаче треньорът Фатих Терим отстранява Гьокдениз от тима поради скандал с капитана Емре Бельозоглу. Оттогава Карадениз не е викан отново в националния тим.

Халфът е с основен принос за двете поредни титли на Рубин в Премиер лигата през 2008 и 2009 година. Тимът се представя достойно в Шампионска лига, където побеждава Барселона с 2:1 в груповата фаза, а Карадениз вкарва един от головете. Рубин играе на два пъти в групите на най-комерсиалния клубен турнир, но не успява да ги премине. През сезон 2012/13 помага на казанци да достигнат до 1/4-финал в Лига Европа, където отпадат от Челси. Известно време Гьокдениз е и капитан на тима, преди лентата да бъде дадена на Олег Кузмин.

Успехи
 Купа на Турция – 2002/03, 2003/04
 Шампион на Русия – 2008, 2009
 Купа на Русия – 2012
 Суперкупа на Русия – 2010, 2012

Revealed: Manchester United star met officials of Bayern Munich last week to discuss transfer ahead of January transfer window
Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo met with Bayern Munich officials last week, according to Daily Mail.
The report claims Ronaldo and his agent, Jorge Mendes, met with Bayern last week after officials from the Bundesliga giants flew to England for talks.
Ronaldo is seeking a way out of Manchester United after falling out of favour at Old Trafford.
Bayern Munich considered a move for Ronaldo during the summer before opting out as he did not fit into their 'philosophy'.
Bayern Munich were also reportedly reluctant to pay Ronaldo's huge wages of £500,000-a-week after paying Liverpool £35million for Sadio Mane as a replacement for Robert Lewandowski.
However, Bayern have revived their interest amid concerns over Mane's fitness and uncertainty over the future of Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting.
It is believed Ronaldo is desperate to play in the Champions League again after playing Europa League football with Manchester United in the first-half of the season.
"Simply the best" – Raphael Varane names this Man United player as the best player he has ever played with
Ten Hag receives Ronaldo warning after dropping Man United star against Tottenham
Man Utd boss and this Man Utd player told to thank Cristiano Ronaldo after his hat-trick against Tottenham
"He's a top player" – Top European club breaks silence about signing Cristiano Ronaldo from Manchester United

There are lots of people out there with this complaint, many of whom assume they just have a 'bad back' that they have to live with. Some who seek help from their GP will be prescribed rest and painkillers, but most of the time this will not solve the problem.
The key in resolving this type of back issue is assessing exactly what structures are at fault.
A healthy spine will have mobile joints, wide and hydrated discs, and nice wide holes between the vertebrae where the nerves pass out of the spine. Chronic back pain happens due to a build up of stress on the spine that creates degenerative changes in the discs and joints of the vertebrae. The result is that the discs get narrower, the joints have more compression through them and the holes that the nerves travel through become narrowed. This can lead to nerves becoming squeezed and that causes muscle tightness and spasm which then create more compression through the spine. A viscous cycle is then started which is essentially the basis of the chronic back pain.
Because there are usually several structures involved in long-term back pain - discs, joints, nerves, muscles - there isn't a one-size-fits-all approach to treating it, which is why just doing some exercises alone isn't usually enough. Each of these structures needs to be treated appropriately in order for the problem to fully resolve.
I use a hands-on approach to get the joints in the spine moving more freely and to take the pressure off the discs. This will also help to take the pressure off the nerves and I often use acupuncture or Gunn IMS to stimulate the nerve to get it functioning optimally. When the nerve has settled then the surrounding muscle spasm will reduce. Further relaxation of the muscle can be achieved with various massage or stretching techniques. The aim is to get all of the parts of the back functioning normally, at which time a program of stretching and strengthening will be much more effective and will allow you to keep your back pain at bay.
Ultimately there are many types of treatment that are used to effectively treat back pain. No two cases of back pain are the same which is why it is important to establish the main causes of your problem, and then treat these accordingly. In almost all cases, back problems can be restored to a level where you can manage with exercise and there is no need for long-term painkillers.
If you are suffering from back pain and you want to fix it, please get in touch. One of our Physios can call you to chat through your best options (book a call here) or you can book an appointment here.
Niall McGregor is hosting a free Chronic Back Pain workshop at The Physiotherapy Place on Tuesday 24th October at 7pm. Get in touch now to book a place.

Without Stricter Checks, Latest Directive To 'Utilise' Fly Ash May Prove Futile
Flavia Lopes
Coal and lignite-based thermal power plants should "ensure 100% utilisation of ash generated by it in an eco-friendly manner",
said an April 22, 2021 notification of the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change
Over the last two decades, the Indian government has been issuing similar notifications on the disposal and utilisation of fly ash*
*a toxic residue left over from burning coal

However, over 50% of industries remain non-compliant,
mostly dumping the ash in the open, in water bodies and in unlined and uncovered pits
And this latest attempt to ensure the safe and sustainable disposal of fly ash....
...could end up damaging India's farmlands, water bodies and fragile habitats, say researchers and activists

Brian's Story: After a cool swim.
It was a cool afternoon in April, 1991. Brian and his dad were at the baseball field by Pierce College for practice. I arrived late from work and sat in the stands waiting for them to finish practice. At break time, he came over to say hi and asked about a box I was holding.
" Is it a baseball mitt?"
"Is it a new pair of sneakers?"
His dad called the boys for final instructions before releasing them to their parents, and right then I told Brian I had brought him a new puppy for his 11th birthday. He opened the box, grabbed the dog and ran back to the field screaming at his teammates to wait. And there, on the field, the boys all sat around and admired the new puppy that looked more bear than dog.
When we got home, the puppy, named Wooley on that field, became Brian's constant companion.
When we retired in 2002, Brian was still in college. Wooley went to live with him until we were settled in Oregon.
Wooley remained with Brian until she died of cancer. Putting her to sleep was the toughest thing he ever had to do.
After he bought his house in July 2009, he acquired Buttercup, (Butters).
... precious conversation between mother and boy.
It's amazing how we bond to our dogs and they become part of our stories. I must consider this if I ever can get Jane a dog. I love this memory, Rosaria. This memory of your boy and his dogs. It lands in a soft place in my heart for children and men and moms and dogs and gifts.

Tights and Fights
This week Hal, Danielle and Lindsey are joined by Chris Gethard! He's a comedian who's worked in TV and hosts the podcast "Beautiful/ Anonymous". He's also someone who wouldn't let a little thing like parent's permission get in the way of his childhood wrestling fandom.
To start, the team will discuss some of the biggest things that happened in wrestling this week.
This includes things in WWE like Kofi Kingston's new opportunity to the WWE Championship and the fact that Charlotte has officially been inserted into the RAW women's title match against Ronda Rousey. Regarding the latter, it was something we all saw coming. So how are we feeling now that it's official?
Beyond WWE, AEW had a lot of talent announcements from this week, with confirmations that Nyla Rose, Sonny Kiss and Kenny Omega are now under contract. Plus, Jay White is now the IWGP heavyweight champion after beating Hiroshi Tanahashi. Where do these moves leave each respective promotions as they prepare for the rest of 2019?
The Beatdown: Shawn Michaels vs. Bret Hart
After Hulk Hogan left WWF, the company faced a creative valley as it searched for its next big star. Eventually, two stars emerged in the early to mid-90's that would be expected to carry to the company: Bret "The Hitman" Hart and The Heartbreak Kid Shawn Michaels. Their talent eventually coalesced into one of the most bitter rivalries in WWF and a moment that would change wrestling forever.
The team will get into the biggest moments that defined their story from the WrestleMania to the Montreal Screwjob to their reconciliation in Dayton, Ohio.
Hosted by Hal Lublin, Danielle Radford, Lindsey Kelk and Chris Gethard.

Just like many kids growing up my Dad was my hero. 30 years later, he still is. I always wanted to be like him, and know everything that he did. My Dad could fix that leaky pipe, build an addition on the house, and fix the family wagon. Naturally, I was his annoying shadow growing up, "helping" to make those projects take even longer. He was strong as an ox – a tough construction worker for over 35 years.
Even in my adolescent teen years, where many teenagers seemingly know more than their parents, I always knew my Dad and Mom were speaking from experience and wouldn't lead me the wrong way. He's the reason I got into the car industry and learned how to turn a wrench – something I'm forever grateful for.
For years now, my Dad has wanted a '55 Bel Air. He has the typical old-guy story, "I use to have one of those when I was in high school!" However just like all those old guys, he beat the hell out of it, put it in a ditch and left it and ended up selling it off before he knew better – a choice he's regretted for years. To make his desire worse, his older brother had a tricked out '55 in high school. His brother passed away at 18 years old, and to have another '55 would be a sort of memorial to his long lost brother, my Uncle Jeff King.
The day we bought the car in San Marcos, CA not running or driving.
After working in construction for 35 years my Dad's health started to decline. He was having trouble breathing and had a host of other issues. The fix was supposed to be simple, go in, get three heart by-passes and get back to normal. After being in surgery much longer than anticipated, he came out with five by-passes. We all were shocked and breathed a sigh of relief, until an early morning phone call.
"His heart is failing," stated the doctor. While the doctor had my Dad's chest split wide open, he noticed one of the heart valves was leaking, part of the original problem. He fixed it, or so he thought. In the middle of the night the heart began to fail, and my Dad went back in for emergency open heart surgery – the second in less than 24 hours. Nobody knew what the fate of that surgery would be, and we all stood on edge for hours.
I was standing by as they wheeled him from recoverry into the ICU. This wasn't my Dad. My father was big, strong, and healthy – nothing phased him. This person was a mere image of my Dad. A million tubes going in and out of him all over his body with tons of machines beeping away next to him. Instantly I couldn't breathe, my eyes swelled, and I had to go outside and get some air before I passed out.
Luckily, his strong will pulled him through. He lived to see my kids being born and continue to do what he loves – travel all over the USA with my Mom exploring every nook and cranny they can find. In the back of his mind, the desire to get his car from when he was 16 grew. On top of everything else, he wanted one as a tribute to his brother.
Since his surgery and retiring that desire for a Bel Air became almost unbearable for my Dad. Every week I'd talk to him and he would talk about getting one, showing me Craigslist and eBay ads. Unfortunately, every time he went to the bank, also known as my Mom, she would say, "Do you want to keep traveling or do you want a '55?" He always replied with "Both!" The plan was to travel for a few more years, sell off one of his motorhomes and his Jeep, then buy a '55.
His dream was to get one that he could tinker on, fixing it up as he drove it daily. Even though he's recovered quite well from his surgery, his strength isn't what it use to be. I told him we need to find one that has a lot of the hard work finished, and he could just focus on little things there and there.
My plan for a few years was to start saving up some pennies and buy my Dad his dream car. I had already started on that, but was still 3-5 years away from accomplishing just that. But just a little over a month ago, he found this particular '55 in San Marcos, California – an hour away from home.
This '55 was exactly what he was looking for. The owner had already swapped in an LS1 with the 4L60E transmission, minus some wiring. The front suspension and steering had already been rebuilt, upgraded to tubular control arms and disc brakes. The factory rearend was rebuilt and a completely custom four-link suspension had been installed. He even spent the money and had a complete air bag suspension system installed on the car.
By this point, the car was about 90% finished. But the owner had run out of patience for the car, knowing that he wouldn't be able to touch it for another year. Instead of letting it sit, he decided to sell the car.
Like they say, persistence pays off. After talking to my Mom about a '55 for years, he finally got the approval to get one. He calls me and tells me about this '55 in San Marcos, but needs me to look at it since he's currently traveling for a month. With cash in hand, I head down and check out the '55. It's everything the ad said it was, but better.
The car was mainly original, but needing a full rewire and finishing up of some minor details. All the hard work was done. After loading the car up the trailer I called my Dad, and lied.
I told him that the car was total junk and the seller's' story was all mixed up. With my plan in motion, I set out along with my brother and best friend to get the car running and driving before he got home. I let my Mom in on the plan, so we all had to lie to him for a month – no easy task to do. I even was setting up times for him and I to go look at another '55 when he got back.
While the majority of the hard work had already been completed on the car, there was still a ton left to do in only a month's time. To make matters worse, for 12 of the 30 days, I was out of town for work. What it boiled down to, I had only 10-12 days to get the car finished before he showed up. Luckily, some of the best in the industry stepped up to help me finish the car. I also had my buddy helping me, who's a world class auto mechanic and fabricator along with my brother who helped turn a few wrenches.
The first problem was the biggest issue, rewiring the entire car. Instead of dealing with 60 years of splices, new wires, and old wires, we bought a brand new wiring harness and started fresh. One of the next issues was gauges. The factory gauges, even if they did work, weren't going to be compatible with the new LS1.
Knowing that my Dad loves the Dakota Digital VHX gauges I have in several of my cars, I called up Scott Johnson at Dakota Digital and explained to him the project. "That sounds like a great project. Our VHX line is the perfect fit, giving a classic yet modern look that will work perfectly with the upgraded motor and transmission," explained Johnson. We also picked up one of their universal gear sending units, which displays the gear on the VHX display.
The installation of the VHX gauges is about as easy as it gets. To start, we popped out the factory gauge housing and gauges, which is only a few screws. Then we unscrewed the gauges from the chrome housing, and screwed in the new VHX gauges in their place.
Wiring up the gauges is almost as easy. The VHX gauges utilize a small computer, that connects to the gauges with a CAT 5 cable. While we were rewiring the entire car, we simply wired in this computer at the same time. From the factory harness we utilized a few wires, such as hot, hot-in-run, turn signals, high beam, dimmer lights, etc. The tach signal was picked up from the LS wiring harness. From there we had to install a few sensors.
On the motor we removed the factory LS oil sending unit, which is behind the intake, and screwed in the Dakota Digital sending unit. For temperature, we unscrewed the plug in the head on the passenger side, all the way in the back, and screwed in the Dakota Digital sending unit with the supplied adapter.
Integrating a shift indicator to the VHX gauges.
The last step was to install the gear sending unit. This unit just has to be mounted to the side of the transmission and can't move the arm more than 180 degrees. Using the supplied brackets and rods, we had this installed in about a half hour. With the sending unit mounted, we ran the wires through the firewall into it's own computer. This computer then has one wire that goes over to the gauge computer. Programming this gear sending unit is simple as well, with just shifting the transmission and pushing a few buttons.
The one item we needed to make the entire electrical system work and function was a battery. We decided to mount the battery in the trunk, behind the spare tire. Instead of messing with a battery box and all that hassle, I decided to go with an Optima Red Top battery. This battery provides more than enough cranking amps for the motor, even all the way in the trunk, and doesn't require a big ugly battery box.
Finishing off things under the hood was fairly easy. My buddy fabricated a fan shroud, computer mount, and ran the transmission cooler lines. I was able to find radiator hoses to work on the LS swap, and my brother had the steam vent bung welded into the radiator. But one major item I needed to figure out was an air intake. This computer still utilized the MAF and IAT sensor as well.
Instead of wasting time trying to find something that worked, I called up the experts at Spectre Performance and talked to our buddy Mike Morrow. "I have exactly what you need for this project, this is a pretty easy one," Morrow told me. He was right too – a rubber elbow, straight piece of pipe, some rubber adapters, filter and hose clamps was it.
We started by installing the rubber 90-degree boot on the throttle body and holding up the aluminum tubing in place. We would have to cut it to fit, so we wanted to make sure to get it right. After trimming it down a few inches, we simply installed the MAF, then the filter on and tightened everything down. Now you you don't want to leave the intake like this as it will flop around and eventually fail. Using one of Spectre's brackets, we secured the intake to the core support.
One of the finishing touches on the car was a cosmetic upgrade. Did we need to do it in order to drive the car down the road? Absolutely not. Did it drive us absolutely nuts? Yes. That was the gas and brake pedal. Now since this car wasn't originally a cable drive throttle body car, the previous owner had already installed a Lokar cable. The problem was the gas pedal assembly itself. Right away we knew it wasn't a quality Lokar piece as it didn't have the same quality and most importantly, the angle of the pedal was extremely odd. The pedal wasn't square and had a really funky arc to it. On top of that, the factory, worn out brake pedal pad looked horrible.
I called up Lokar Performance and talked with Mike Waldo. "We have a bolt-in gas pedal for the Tri-5 Chevy's with a few different options for finish. We also have brake pedal covers, that will match the gas pedal for a professional, quality finish," stated Waldo. With that, I ordered up a new gas pedal and brake pedal cover.
Starting with the gas pedal, we removed the assembly that was currently in there. Setting it against the Lokar piece, it was obviously a knock off. The welds weren't as nice, the bushings were sub-par quality, the angle of the mounting bracket was completely wrong, and overall it had a cheap knock-off feel to it. Take note folks – it may save you a few dollars up front, but will those knock-off's will cost you later on.
Both look similar, but the counterfeit is on the right.
After popping off the pedal and arms, I slid the mounting bracket from the engine side into the passenger compartment through the factory linkage hole. Reusing the two bolts, the hard part was finished. Mind you that the engine is installed in this car. Installing it was still possible, just a little harder to get the bolts installed since I could only move them a few degrees at a time.
On the inside, we reinstalled the arms, adjusting them so that the pedal bottoms out on the floor, while the throttle body is wide open. This takes a few minutes of trial and error, but is easy to do. My OCD was happy when the pedal was square and the arc was correct.
The brake pedal pad is even easier to install. I popped out the two rubber inserts, and set the pedal pad on the bare pedal. Using a sharpie marker, I marked the holes and drilled two opposing holes. Using the supplied bolts, I attached the pedal pad onto the pedal, then used the supplied super glue to firmly secure the rubber inserts. Just like that, we had killer looking pedals that will work even better than the factory set up.
The very last step to get the car finished off was having some exhaust welded up. Instead of messing around, I took the car to a local muffler shop and had them bend and weld up a new exhaust, using the mufflers that came with the car. In a little over an hour the exhaust was finished.
Now that the car was running and driving, I had two extra days before my Dad came home. I spent those catch up on sleep, along with getting the car cleaned. The anticipation was almost too much, everybody kept speculating on his reaction when he would open his garage and see the car sitting there.
Like I mentioned before, my Dad's a manly-man. I'm not sure I've ever seen him cry, and he doesn't show a lot of emotions. Would this reveal be the time he cried? Would he laugh? We all had our theory, but we finally found out.
The Monday he came home, we cleaned out his three car garage and all parked down the street. Sitting in the middle of his garage was his, unbeknownst to him, '55 Bel Air aired out and sitting on the ground. Finally the motorhome pulled in, and we could hear him and my Mom coming out. The garage door started to open and he looks inside.
The moment he saw the car, he turns to my Mom and says "DID YOU KNOW ABOUT THIS?" With a big grin, she nodded and said "Happy Birthday!" We all started to laugh and he just kept saying, "I can't believe this," and "This is too much!" For the record, there were no tears, but his eyes did water up a bit.
After admiring the car for an hour and seeing all the work that was completed on the car, I finally said "lets go around the block!" He smiled from ear to ear, and was still asking me questions about the car, trying to grasp what I had done for him. He got on the throttle about halfway and was blown away at how fast the car was. After beating the car up a bit before handing over the keys, I knew the car was even faster than that!
I know that night he didn't sleep much that night. He had to get up and go look in the garage to make sure the car was still there. Since giving him the keys, he's driven the car every single day, which was his goal – a daily driver. Naturally he has a list of things he wants to do on the car, air conditioning, new interior, etc…but for now, he's just super happy to have a '55 again.
I just wanted to say that I'm happy to that I was able to make my Dad's dream come true. The look and expression on his face was priceless. After almost losing him a few years back, it was great to make him this happy and show some appreciation towards everything he did for me growing up.

Q: continuous rotation servo (arduino) responding to button press I am trying to make a continous rotation servo move clockwise if button on pin2 is pressed, and counterclockwise if button on pin3 is pressed. I want the servo to keep moving in the direction set according to the button until the button is released. This is the code I have so far (I am new to arduino):
#include <Servo.h>

Servo myservo; // create servo object to control a servo

// CONSTANTS

    // PINS
    const int crServo = 12; // sets pin 12 as servo
    const int buttonPinCW = 2; // sets pin 2 as button; CW => clockwise => FOCUS FAR
    const int buttonPinCC = 3; // sets pin 3 as button; CC => counterclockwise => FOCUS NEAR
    const int ledPin = 10; // sets pin 10 as LED

    // SERVO PROPERTIES
    const int crSpeedDefault = 1500; // 1500 is the stay still position, motor should not turn
    const int crSpeedCW = 1300; // 1300 turns the motor full speed clockwise
    const int crSpeedCC = 1700; // 1700 turns the motor full speed counter-clockwise
    const int crStepDefault = 2;

// SET BUTTON STATES
    int buttonStateCW = 0; //sets button 1 as off
    int buttonStateCC = 0; // sets button 2 as off

void setup()
{
    myservo.attach(crServo); // attaches the servo on pin 12 to the servo object
    pinMode (buttonPinCW, INPUT); // sets button as input
    pinMode (buttonPinCC, INPUT); // sets button as input
    pinMode (ledPin, OUTPUT); // sets led as output
    myservo.write(crSpeedDefault); // default servo to crSpeedDefault
}

int slowFocusPull(int x){
  int result;
  result = abs(x - crSpeedDefault) / crStepDefault;
  return result;
}

void loop()
{
    buttonStateCW = digitalRead(buttonPinCW);
    buttonStateCC = digitalRead(buttonPinCC);
    // clockwise rotation
    if (buttonStateCW == HIGH) {
        digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH);
        myservo.write(slowFocusPull(crSpeedCW));
    // counterclockwise rotation
    } else if (buttonStateCC == HIGH) {
        digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH);
        myservo.write(slowFocusPull(crSpeedCC));
    } else {
        digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW);
    }
}

The issue lies in the function slowFocusPull. Basically I just want to be able to adjust the speed with just modifying the constant. Without this function everything works fine.

UPDATE: final loop for reference
void loop()
{
  buttonStateCW = digitalRead(buttonPinCW);
  buttonStateCC = digitalRead(buttonPinCC);
  // clockwise rotation
  if (buttonStateCW == HIGH) {
    digitalWrite(ledPinR, HIGH);
    float speed = crSpeedCW;
    Serial.print("CLOCKWISE-ROTATION \n");
    for (int i = 0; i < t * 5; i++) {
      speed += ((float)crSpeedDefault - speed)/ 10;
      Serial.print(speed);
      Serial.print("\n");
      myservo.write((int)speed);
      delay(100);
    }
    myservo.write(crSpeedCW);
  }
  else if (buttonStateCC == HIGH) {
      digitalWrite(ledPinG, HIGH);
      float speed = crSpeedCC;
      Serial.print("COUNTER-CLOCKWISE-ROTATION \n");
      for (int i = 0; i < t * 5; i++) {
        speed += ((float)crSpeedDefault - speed) / 10;
        Serial.print(speed);
        Serial.print("\n");
        myservo.write((int)speed);
        delay(100);
      }
      myservo.write(crSpeedCC);
    }
  else {
    myservo.write(crSpeedDefault);
    digitalWrite(ledPinR, LOW);
    digitalWrite(ledPinG, LOW);     // turn the LED off by making the voltage LOW
  }
}

A: Looks like your project would benefit from using Hardware Interrupts, which asynchronously call functions when events (like button presses) occur (these are perfect for controllers, and remove the overhead of polling).
Try wiring up the two pins and wiring up the buttons to pins 2 and 3 as is shown in this diagram:

Hardware interrupts literally interrupt the code, the uno has two such pins: digital pin 2 and digital pin 3 (this is really useful for robotics, also the mega has 6 such pins!)
here's a skeleton for how your code might want to look
void setup() {
  attachInterrupt(0, goClockwise, RISING); //the "0" places arduino uno's interrupt pin 2 (for uno r3)
  attachInterrupt(1, goCounterClockwise, RISING); //the "1" places interrupt for arduino uno's pin 3
  }

void loop() {
  delay(1000); dummy delay, code is handled in interrupt functions
}

void goClockwise () {
 //runs when pin 2's button is pressed
 //code for making servo go clockwise
}

void goCounterClockwise () {
 //code triggered when pin 3's button is pressed
 //code for ccw goes here
}

If you have any questions on I'd be happy to work through them with you.

They know when you've been stood up and they know when you're having an affair - what don't they know?
Considering that 58% of Americans eat at a restaurant at least once a week – while British people spend on average £288,000 in their lifetime eating out – it's no surprise restaurant owners are getting savvier at telling our personality types apart.
When you realize that menu psychology is a thing, and there are psychological tricks to entice us into buying all the courses at dinner, it's no surprise that your waiter may know more about you then the person you're dining with.
Restaurant staff are, after all, dedicated people watchers according to therapist and body language expert Sally Baker: "People watching is a skill that can make a service go quicker so restaurant owners learn all this stuff very quickly and easily," she says.
Yes, they know when you've been stood up, they can tell when one of those quiet-but-serious arguments is happening and they see you when your dining partner has been on the phone for 20 minutes and left you awkward and bored.
They know if you're on a first date.
As if you weren't nervous already, the person serving you is also evaluating how it's going.
Owner and CEO of London-based cafe Arapina Michaela Pontiki says it's all about the lack of phone interaction.
And according to body language expert Baker, it's all to do with little outward flashes of nervousness that are easy to spot like repeated self-grooming of hair or frequent small adjustments to clothes.
"Any body language accompanied by micro-movements such as fidgeting or repeatedly touching their face is a tell-tale sign of first date nerves," says Baker.
They can tell who you're with.
They know if you're having an affair.
Yes, the myth is true – some people just can't help frequenting their favorite spots, even if it means exposing themselves as cheaters.
Midgley and Zhuralov admit that the food hospitality business can involve seeing infidelity on site: "We've definitely seen the same customers take dates in – and then return with their wives or husbands," they reveal.
They can tell what your food habits are like.
They may not be nutritionists but how and what you order can say a lot about what you're eating outside and at home apparently.
So next time you're wondering if you should order that trusty pad thai again, maybe try something you can't really pronounce?
They know if you're meeting someone for the first time.
Todd Brinkman, head of Eat and Drink at Stoke in Charlotte, North Carolina, says that digital dating has changed the bar scene considerably.
"In a city center like Uptown Charlotte, you can spot online meetups a mile away," he admits. "It's obvious when a couple is there together, yet you can tell when they don't really know each other.
They can tell your job role.
Pontiki adds that how you dress says it all, along with your posture and decisiveness.
"It's about how they dress and carry themselves, especially now suit and ties are a thing of the past. The more casual the attire, the higher up they tend to be," he says.
So, next time you're enjoying a casual Friday dress code, go live it up at a restaurant alright?
They can tell if you're having a bad day.
So, if you want sympathy from a stranger, eating out may be the way to get it.
See, apparently even restaurant owners can tell when we're having an off day.
They know whether you'll tip (or not).
Our attitude definitely exudes how generous we're going to be – and wait staff is uniquely attuned to this.
"Smiley, happy customers – or people trying to hit on our staff are the most likely to tip," say Midgley and Zhuralov. "Or people with loose change," they add.
They can tell your personality type.
Ever walk into somewhere and feel like the waiting staff have just given you a onceover? Well, they probably did – but it's not for the reason you might think. And no, they're not always checking you out.
And considering that researchers at the University of Kansas concluded that you can judge a stranger's income, political views, emotional and other important personality traits just by looking at their shoes, it's no wonder waiters can tell a lot about you so quickly.
They can tell if you're frugal.
They can tell if you're a nice person.
The old rule about being nice to everyone will always ring true, with the World Economic Forum measuring countries by how kind their populations are to strangers (FYI, United States comes 9th on the list) – so know that it doesn't go unnoticed.
"Table manner is a very important indication of someone," says Li.

2016 NHL Draft: Most Intriguing Prospects
August 10, 2015 by Joseph Aleong
Fresh off the completion of the highly regarded 2015 NHL Draft class, one which included potential megastars Connor McDavid and Jack Eichel being selected, the focus for draft lovers shifts to the summer of 2016, when all eyes will be on American forward Auston Matthews. While there are no generational talents available next June, the 2016 draft looks to be one of the deepest in recent memory, with several prospects who are on the cusp of breaking out and making a name for themselves. While all the buzz has been on the scoring prodigy Matthews so far (and rightly so), there are several other prospects who have the talent to make an impact for whatever NHL team is lucky enough to grab them.
Every year, there are prospects who enter their pre-draft season without much buzz, but play their way into a high draft pick with a huge leap in performance. Like Dylan Strome, Mitch Marner, and Thomas Chabot in 2015, players can drastically improve their stock throughout the course of the year, whether it ends as a top-3 draft pick or a surprise first round pick. Here are some lesser-known prospects who could take a huge leap forward this year and raise their draft stock dramatically.
C Logan Brown, Windsor Spitfires (OHL)
Logan Brown is, at the very least, the most physically intimidating forward prospect available for the draft next summer. Standing 6'6″ and tipping the scales at 225 pounds, Brown is a menace on the ice with his combination of skill and hulking size.
The son of former NHL defenseman Jeff Brown, Logan is far from just a big body lumbering around on the ice. The sixth overall pick in the 2014 OHL Draft, Brown was dealt to the Windsor Spitfires from the Niagara IceDogs for six draft picks before even suiting up for an OHL game. It's not hard to see what the Spitfires fell in love with, as Brown finished his first OHL season with 17 goals and 43 points in just 56 games to finish second in the OHL in points per game amongst rookies.
Entering the season ranked 7th by Hockeyprospect.com and 11th by Future Considerations, one would think a budding power forward like Brown would be ranked much higher. There are a few qualms regarding his game that are holding Brown back from being mentioned as a potential top-five or even top-three pick. Still showing inconsistencies is a big problem, as is his reluctance to take full advantage of his massive frame. If Brown is able to put together his tantalizing package of size and skill, he has the ability to shoot up draft charts and challenge for a top pick in the 2016 draft. As Windsor GM Warren Rychel stated, Brown "…has unlimited potential."
D Sean Day, Mississauga Steelheads (OHL)
Sean Day has failed to live up to lofty expectations since being drafted in 2013
One of the most polarizing prospects available next year without a doubt, Sean Day entered the OHL under tremendous expectations as the fourth player ever to be granted exceptional status by Hockey Canada, after John Tavares, Aaron Ekblad, and Connor McDavid. However, he was also the first exceptional player to be taken after the first overall pick, as Day slid to the fourth overall selection and the Mississauga Steelheads. Admittedly, Day doesn't exactly fit the criteria of "not much buzz", but he didn't exactly live up to expectations in his first two OHL seasons, registering a combined 16 goals and 52 points to go along with a -62 plus/minus rating over 121 games.
While Day's luster has worn off a little bit, he still boasts the promising talent and physicality that made the best hockey minds in Canada deem him exceptional. Day is still one of the best skaters from the blueline in the OHL, and he uses his huge 6'2″, 240 pound frame to his advantage when he has to play physically against opposing forwards.
As with Brown, the main concern with Day is his inconsistent play at both ends of the rink. Day enters the season ranked just 10th by Future Considerations, while being unranked among the top 30 prospects by Hockeyprospect.com. However, if Day can harness his incredible talent and showcase the ability that made him just the fourth player ever to receive exceptional status, he could end up shooting up draft boards and landing inside the top-10 or even top five picks.
RW Julien Gauthier, Val-d'Or Foreurs (QMJHL)
Continuing with the physically intimidating theme, Julien Gauthier is a towering winger out of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League. Playing for the Val-d'Or Foreurs last season, Gauthier blew away his numbers from his rookie QMJHL season, increasing his goal total from 8 to 38 and his points total from 29 to 73. And at 6'4″ and 220 pounds, Gauthier is able to use his large frame to make an impact in every zone. Despite his impressive progression and desirable size, Gauthier is ranked just 28th by Hockeyprospect.com and 19th by Future Considerations to open his pre-draft season.
Gauthier's complete game is not overlooked by some of the top hockey minds in Canada, as he was recently the only 2016 Draft-eligible player to be invited to Team Canada's World Junior Championship summer roster. Hockey Canada's director of player personnel, Ryan Jankowski, had this to say about Gauthier:
"In putting our roster together for summer camp, we kind of had everything out on the table and we felt we don't have a lot of size, especially down the middle," Jankowski told NHL.com. "We want to make sure we have somewhat of a presence with that. Julien has that. He has strength, but he can really skate.
It is this combination of size and skill that should make Gauthier a more coveted prospect, but his game is not without holes. He is seemingly undervalued as a prospect, and his conservative pre-draft ranking is reminiscent to that of 2015 11th overall pick Lawson Crouse. As with Crouse, if the massive winger can refine his game and showcase the ability to drive possession by himself, he could find himself shooting up draft boards.
C Alex DeBrincat, Erie Otters (OHL)
One of the more curious cases in the 2016 Draft, Alex DeBrincat's numbers should indicate a potential high first round talent, as he exploded onto the scene with a 51-goal OHL rookie season. Despite a monster rookie season, DeBrincat starts off his draft year outside of the top 30 on both the Hockeyprospect.com and Future Considerations prospect rankings. There are some potential concerns that are keeping his draft stock relatively low heading into his draft season, however, as DeBrincat has definitely posted the numbers to justify a high draft pick.
The first issue is, of course, the Connor McDavid effect. The generational talent centered DeBrincat for much of the 2014-2015 season, and as a result, DeBrincat rose from undrafted OHL prospect to rookie of the year and 50 goal, 100 point scorer. The second is his small frame, as DeBrincat, a late 1997 birthday, stands just 5'7″ and weighs in at a measly 160 pounds. However, as undersized players are beginning to show that size is not as much of a factor in today's NHL than in past years, with 2015 4th overall pick Mitch Marner the most recent high-profile name to join the list, DeBrincat could jump up prospect rankings with another huge season in 2015-2016. After all, he possesses the passing ability, shot, and hands to excel as both a playmaker and goal scorer.

With almost a full year to go before the 2016 NHL Draft kicks off, these prospects, among many others, will get every opportunity to showcase their skills and make a case to rise as high as they can in the draft. These are just a few of many hopeful NHLers that can improve their draft stock by making the necessary improvements in their game to make the most of their intriguing abilities.

Kirk Mansfield & Michael West ran away from the Prospet runner the last 500 yards.
Woodbury of Prospect in the JV is a feshman.  Joe Gruender ran well for Lynbrook.
So did Carol Stephenson and Stephanie Roberts in the girls' race.
