Q: Drow the first Column of a particular matrix with specific colour and shape in MATLAB I have a matrix called All( that contains 36 Rows *36 Columns ).
Each row in the first column represents the data of a specific user.
For Example: ( Row 1, Col 1)  is the data of user1
              (Row 2, Col 1 ) is the data of user2 and so on ...
while the remaining columns of each row represent the data of other users.

I'd like to draw the first column in the matrix with specific colour and shape and all the remaining column with another colour and shape in MATLAB or any other program that can do the purpose! .
The attached image is what I have done so far but I can't recognise the first column from other columns in the graph because all of them similar shape

A: You can use the function hold to retain current plot when adding new plots.
So if you have a Matrix M:
plot(M(:,1),'r^'); %plot the first column with red triangles
hold on
plot(M(:,2:end),'bo') %plot the next value with blue cirlces

Result:

Although I have spoken of this before, I did vaguely and I want, today, to be a little more "attentive" to this important issue that many people are unaware.
You know that the universe is very large, this universe. So great that even we have not even seen our means more than 4% of the (at this time), with which we have much to learn.
If Carl Sagan attempt to make people realize the magnitude of things with a picture of Voyager I (the little blue dot) with an image of the Earth about 6000 million kilometers so that people conciencira what weak and fragile we really are and because you have to care for the Earth, we now know that we are still much smaller in the universe.
The organization of our universe goes from the smallest to the largest, being, as large a copy of what we can find from the smallest (approximately). If we have elementary particles that come together to form atoms combine to form materials that come together to form clusters of materials (everything with their properties), if we increase the scale we have similar situations.
If we start from the base of a solar system (one star and a handful of planets orbiting the star or stars-some day speak of the types of systems existing), if we add dimension to the issue, uniting more "bases", we constellations (groups of solar systems), we galaxies (clusters of constellations), have clusters of galaxies, clusters of galaxies, clusters of galaxies, superclusters of galaxies, galaxies and filaments walls. All from lowest to highest order and accumulation of the above type.
So far everything right, things go from the smallest to the largest accumulation of the above, it is understandable and simple. The problem is knowing how to accumulate and why and for that enter mathematical models.
They have tried to create mathematical models of what has been called "cosmic web" or the cosmic web, so called because, in the models, which have seen is that the way you have to have our universe is like a cobweb . Ie how galaxies, clusters of galaxies are united and the way they present is to be united through small filaments giving a similar to a web form, although it seems uncontrolled or random has a strong gravitational component .
Mathematical models are a little green as itself (and this is nice) even we know many things. Unknown to the masses, know itself as galaxy clusters interact with each other, and we know it is very difficult to solve until the system 3 gravitating bodies … but what if we are approaches that we think can be quite rough .
From where I recommend reading the paper doctorate who will help you understand many things here I tell you, though, on the web, modeling, many of you can serve to get an idea (and knowing that each " point "is a galaxy … yes, a galaxy, a total of 100 billion stars, remember the" little blue dot ").
What we can see that our universe is not it very difficult if not know him, which is very large and we worried about absurdities absurdities.
For those interested in my person (in the personal sense, my career, my future) this is a subject on which I want to do my Ph.D.

Q: Phonegap returns object Object but echo correct data I'm making a phone app using PhoneGap with PHP on the server side. the Login function has been working fine, but AJAX returns an error [object Object] while PHP returns the correct value's in JSON.
it's for making a phone app for an existing website and using its database.
the data my PHP prints is correct yet I receive an error response from ajax.
    Alert(response)
Gives an [object Object] return value on error
whenever I try
    alert(response.val)
I strangely get undefined, but in the network, I can see the printed data is correct in JSON.
 {{"user_id":"390","response":"Success"}}

but when I look in the console on my browser I see an unexpected error.
 Unexpected parameter ':'

my ajax function is as follows
$(document).ready(function () {
    $("#btnLogin").click(function () {
        var gebr = $("#login_username").val().trim();
        var pass = $("#login_password").val().trim();
        var dataString = "username=" + gebr + "&password=" + pass + "&login=";
        var msg = "";
        $("#message").html("Authenticating...");

        if (gebr != "" && pass != "") {
            $.ajax({
                type: "POST",
                data: dataString,
                dataType: "json",
                //contentType: "application/javascript",

                    var user_id = response.user_id;
                    var success = response.response;
                    localStorage.setItem("user_id", user_id);
                    window.location = "home.html";
                    alert("login successfull");
                },
                error: function (response) {
                    $("#message").html("error..");
                    alert(response);
                }
            });
        } else {
            msg = "Please fill all fields!";
            $("#message").html(msg);
        }
        return false;
    });

PHP
header('Content-type: application/json');
header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *');
header('Access-Control-Allow-Methods: GET, POST');

$gebruikersnaam = $_REQUEST['username'];
$wachtwoord = md5($_REQUEST['password']);
$user = [];

//if user and password are filled
if (!empty($gebruikersnaam) && isset($wachtwoord)) {
//checks if user_id has been found
if (!$found_user_id) {
    $msg = "user not found!";
    print json_encode($msg);
} else {
    if (($gebruikersnaam == $user['gebruikersnaam'] && $wachtwoord == $user['wachtwoord']) && ((!empty($user['single_allowed_ip_address_for_login']) && $user['single_allowed_ip_address_for_login'] == $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'])|| empty($user['single_allowed_ip_address_for_login']))) {
        //responds with this data
        $user_id = $user['user_id'];
        $response[] = array(
            'user_id' => $user_id,
            'response' => 'Success'
        );
        print json_encode($response);
    } else {
        $msg = "user is incorrect";
        print json_encode($msg);
    }
  }
}

I have been wanting to get a successful response and saving the user_id in local storage so it can be used on a different page.
Edit:
after using console.log on the response i got an odd object.

     abort: function abort()
     always: function always()
     catch: function catch()
     done: function add()
     fail: function add()
     getAllResponseHeaders: function getAllResponseHeaders()
     getResponseHeader: function getResponseHeader()
     overrideMimeType: function overrideMimeType()
     pipe: function pipe()
     progress: function add()
     promise: function promise()

     readyState: 4

     setRequestHeader: function setRequestHeader()
     state: function state()

     status: 200

     statusCode: function statusCode()

     statusText: "load"

     then: function then()
     <prototype>: {…

which is strange because none of these functions are made and the only thing which i can recognize is the statuscode.

A: You need to correct your JSON. {{"user_id":"390","response":"Success"}} is not valid JSON. It needs to be {"user_id":"390","response":"Success"}.
You're getting a strange object in your console.log because your response in the error: function (response)... is actually the jqXHR jQuery object and will not return your response directly in its arguments. Stick with success: function(response)... and output whatever your server sends back.

A storage tank containing crude oil spilled into the Cache la Poudre River in northern Colorado last week, releasing 7,500 gallons into the water. The spill was caused by high floodwaters, according to the newspaper the Coloradoan. "Recent high river flows undercut the bank where the storage tank was sitting, causing the tank to drop and breaking a valve." About 178 barrels of oil were released into the river. Fortunately, the spill has been contained to a distance of a quarter mile downstream and no sources of drinking water have been affected.
The operator of the tank, Noble Energy, reported the spill to the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission on Friday June 20th. Clean up crews are working on removing the oil from the water, and oil from a tank next to spill tank has been drained in a precautionary measure. The spill is not ongoing.
Flooding is not a new concern for storage tanks in Colorado, as flooding last fall led to at least 10 spills, releasing 43,000 gallons of oil and 18,000 gallons of fracking wastewater. Though the 7,500 gallon spill in the Cache la Poudre River is not considered to be a large amount, it is significant in that it is the only river in the state designated as a National Wild and Scenic River.

Japan government considering support for Tepco on Fukushima water problem: Official
https://str.sg/wgoC
TOKYO (REUTERS) - The Japanese government is considering whether to support Tokyo Electric Power Co (Tepco) , the operator of the crippled Fukushima nuclear plant, in dealing with the growing toxic water problem on the site, an official at the economy and trade ministry said on Wednesday.
The ministry takes the water problem "very seriously" and is mulling ways to assist the beleaguered utility, said the government official, who declined to be named.
The official did not confirm whether government support would be paid for by taxpayers.
Tepco is taking various countermeasures to block radioactive groundwater from seeping into the Pacific Ocean.
A Nuclear Regulation Authority official this week called the water problem an "emergency" and called for more action to prevent the water from flowing into the ocean.


Situated within this reserve is an Adventure Playground, which has been well awarded and well used now. With a tunnel and a bridge over it, it lends itself to lots in a child's imagination; there are swings, of course; a climby, spider web thingy, and these little tulip cups/rides (and I use the word ride loosely), because my child had the bejeezus scared out of her, when she sat in one and the stupid thing wouldn't stop spinning round, with the momentum, and suction (apparently), so parents, do not find these things hilarious (I do now), and do not let your kids be launched off, but do stand by.
Anyway, there's enough to let your children run rampant and let off a bit of steam here. A bit further up, past the footy club on the middle oval (there are three ovals here folks), are some cricket practice cages, yet another smaller playground and this amazing duck pond, with an island in the middle of it.
It has a walkway round most of it, which is fenced off. The great thing is you can view the ducks in their natural environment, from this quite well. We've witnessed a whole duck cycle at this pond, by visiting it regularly; from one visit to the next, you can see either: Mum, Mum & Dad, & then, miraculously sometimes, Mum & Dad out walking the kids. Ducklings? Well, you can't get much cuter than this.
pigeons like to join in!
Just the greatest 'unwinder', with or without the kids, is to spend some time watching the ducks. Kids small and large will love this activity, as I do. Sit on a nearby bench and you can meditate on the week that was, the week to come or just ruminate on being.
The ducks will even come up close, either inside the fence or walking outside and around, as they often do. They'll come up. Pigeons do too.
Seriously, with two playgrounds , three ovals, maybe six tennis courts and a tennis club/rugby club, the Kensington Pk Kindergarten and plenty of room to move, this park may have it all. There are a number of barbecues here, across the reserve, on either side. And if you want to' walk happy', but don't really like walking on public roads, well , you can walk your half an hour round one of the ovals here.
The sunset view through the trees from the top oval near the duck pond or looking down The Parade, from this park, is just superb too. The top oval, has a slight embankment close to the duck pond, from where if you sit, you can get such a great view back through the trees, to the city, of the sunset.
Back down on The Parade, you also look down at the skyline of the city, which, at sunset, literally takes your breath away. Soft pinks, orange, burnished gold and a faded yellow finally, go to makeup the end of another day there. Now, think about it and sometime just stop and park the car here, or walk even, at a time close to dusk, with or without a partner, and sit on the grassy embankment or just the grass, and take it all in. Let things go and see what nature at times, gives us.
It's such a lovely occupation, watching the ducks and pigeons with your children or alone, even. After you've played with the kids at either of the playgrounds, do make sure you take that extra time to go and spend time with the birds too. You'll love it.
There's something kind of raw and rustic here. Just watch out you don't have to take up Irish river dancing, to avoid the dog droppings, variously left by the dog owners at times.

Lasting impact of Covid lockdowns
Hippocratic Post | 23rd March 2022 | Coronavirus, COVID-19 Update, Integrative, Lifestyle, Mental Health | No Comments |
New research from the University of East Anglia reveals first-hand the lasting impact that lockdowns may have had on people's mental and physical health.
The UK's first Covid lockdown was announced by Prime Minister Boris Johnson exactly two years ago today.
Just a few days later, researchers at UEA launched a major project to track the mental and physical health of the nation through lockdowns and beyond.
More than 1,000 participants carried out daily surveys – with questions on a range of lifestyle behaviours including physical activity, diet, sleep, smoking, drinking, and drug use.
Some of the participants were then interviewed by the research team, to try to understand what was happening for people from their own viewpoints.
New findings published today show how people responded very differently to social restrictions depending on their existing circumstances.
For those who were less well-off to start with, adapting to lockdown was more difficult, and health behaviours typically worsened to a greater extent.
In contrast, those who were better off at the start of the pandemic demonstrated faster adaptation and were more able to respond positively to restrictions, for example by taking to online exercise classes.
It is likely that any lasting impact to mental and physical health will therefore be much greater for those who were worse off to start with.
Those with good social links and healthy behaviours already in place described in their interviews how they were able to adapt to lockdown and thrive, whereas some of the more vulnerable in our communities had fallen into unhealthy spirals.
Prof Caitlin Notley said: "When the first lockdown was announced back in 2020, we started surveying participants from around the UK daily. Our initial results showed that people were eating less fruit and veg, getting less exercise and drinking more alcohol.
"It quickly became apparent that lockdown may have lasting consequences for the physical and mental health of the nation.
"We wanted to see whether people's lifestyles changed in the long-term so we continued the study by carrying out regular surveys with the participants, and interviewing some people to find out more."
Now, two years on, the team's results show how health inequalities are likely to have widened.
Prof Notley said: "Social restrictions imposed as a result of the coronavirus pandemic have had a significant impact on health behaviours at the individual and population level.
"It's fair to say that all of our participants' lives were disrupted by lockdown and they were forced to adapt.
"But people responded to the lockdowns very differently and their experiences of social restrictions varied considerably.
"Fundamentally, people were hindered or helped by their existing support structures and resources, such as access to technology to engage with the outside world, or private outdoor space.
Those people who had good friends, community links and who were already health conscious, were able to respond positively and better able to cope.
"They were able to adapt to the 'new normal', use technology to keep in touch with friends and relatives, order veg boxes, carry on with a healthy diet and take part in healthy pursuits in new and innovative ways such as online fitness classes or 'doing Joe Wicks'.
"But lockdowns are very likely to have caused a sustained widening of social and health inequalities.
…those who were unemployed, younger, on a lower income, clinically unwell or told to fully shield were particularly impacted by strict restrictions.
"Those who remained in work outside the home, or who were retired, were the least impacted overall. But those who were unemployed, younger, on a lower income, clinically unwell or told to fully shield were particularly impacted by strict restrictions.
"For these more vulnerable people, supportive social factors were taken away or severely restricted. Anxiety and depression worsened, and unhealthy behaviours like exercising less, drinking more alcohol, and eating a poor diet increased.
"As we work through the 'roadmap to recovery', emphasis needs to be placed on a collaborative, community-based approach, with a focus on what makes us well.
"Encouraging membership of community exercise groups, for example, may help those most impacted to engage again with healthy behaviours to keep them well. We also need to pay attention to how those who are less well-off responded more negatively to the policy of lockdown, so that lessons can be learnt for the future," she added.
'Disruption and adaptation in response to the coronavirus pandemic – assets as contextual moderators of enactment of health behaviours' is published in the British Journal of Health Psychology.

Q: How to find missing id in the table I have column looks like below
SID101
SID102
SID103
SID105
SID107

In the above criteria i need to find missed SID numbers. SID104 and SID 106 are missed while ordering.
How can i find the missed id numbers.Could any one help me finding it.
Thanks in advance.

A: If your table contains gaps with length more than 1 item, you can use this query:
declare @t table(s varchar(20))

insert @t values ('SID101'),('SID102'),('SID103'),('SID105'),('SID108');

with cte as
(
    select substring(t.s, 4, len(t.s)) [i]
    from @t t
)
select 'SID' + cast(m.number as varchar(20))
from master..spt_values m
left join cte c on c.i = m.number
where [Type] = 'P'
    and m.number >= (select min(i) from cte)
    and m.number <= (select max(i) from cte)
    and c.i is null

A: It's difficult. With
SELECT COUNT(*),MAX(CAST(REPLACE(y.name,'SID','') AS INT)) AS col_max FROM
sys.objects x INNER JOIN sys.columns y ON x.object_id=y.object_id
WHERE x.name='<TABLE_NAME>'

you should know, how much columns are missing (i.e. COUNT(*) is 5 and col_max is 107)
When you have a table, which contains only one column with all possible IDs from 1 to max (i.e. 100,101,102,103,104,...,132) then you could do
SELECT * FROM (
    SELECT CAST(REPLACE(y.name,'SID','') AS INT) AS col_id FROM
    sys.objects x INNER JOIN sys.columns y ON x.object_id=y.object_id
    WHERE x.name='<TABLE_NAME>'
) a
RIGHT JOIN <TABLE_IDS> b ON a.col_id=b.id
WHERE a.col_id IS NULL AND b.id<=(
    SELECT MAX(CAST(REPLACE(y.name,'SID','') AS INT)) AS col_max FROM
    sys.objects x INNER JOIN sys.columns y ON x.object_id=y.object_id
    WHERE x.name='<TABLE_NAME>'
)

EDIT: sorry, I've seen just now, that these values aren't column names, but values. My solution will find missing column names

A: Something like this should work:
DECLARE @i INT;
SET @i = 100;

CREATE TABLE #idsToCheck (checkId varchar(100));

WHILE (@i < 200)
    BEGIN
        INSERT INTO #idsToCheck VALUES ('SID' + CONVERT(varchar(100), @i));
        SET @i = @i + 1;
    END

SELECT * FROM #idsToCheck itc
    LEFT OUTER JOIN MainTable mt ON itc.checkId = mt.realId
    WHERE mt.realId = NULL

DROP TABLE #idsToCheck

... where MainTable is your table containing the SID101, SID102, etc. column values, and MainTable.realId is the column containing those IDs.  Modify the @i initial value and number in the while loop condition based on which SIDs you want to check from/to.

A:    Declare @St int
            declare @end int
     set @st = CAST( (select RIGHT( max(data),4) from orderno)as int)
     set @end = CAST( (select RIGHT( min(data),4) from orderno)as int)

     create table #temp(data int)

    while(@St <= @end )
    begin
 insert into #temp values(@St)
 set @St = @St +1
   end

  select * from orderno
  select * from #temp
 select data from #temp where data not in (select cast(RIGHT(data,4))

A: declare @t table(s varchar(20))

insert @t values ('SID101'),('SID102'),('SID103'),('SID105'),('SID107');

with cte as
(
    select substring(t.s, 4, len(t.s)) [i]
    from @t t
)

select 'SID' + cast(t1.i + 1 as varchar(20))
from cte t1
join cte t2 on t2.i > t1.i
    and not exists(
        select 1
        from cte c3
        where c3.i > t1.i and c3.i < t2.i
    )
where t2.i <> t1.i + 1

NASA's $1 billion Jupiter probe just beamed back mesmerizing new photos of the gas giant

It's been a busy and exhilarating couple of months for scientists who study Jupiter — and space nerds fascinated by the gas giant.
Yesterday, a team of researchers announced the discovery of 12 new Jovian moons, bringing Jupiter's total up to 79. Last week, scientists revealed that data from NASA's $1 billion Juno mission suggested there may be a previously undiscovered volcano on Jupiter's moon Io. And last month, the team behind Juno figured out that Jupiter's lighting is more similar to Earth's than previously thought — which solved a 39-year-old mystery.
But most excitingly, NASA confirmed in June that Juno, which has orbited Jupiter since July 2015, will cheat death for at least three more years. The probe was scheduled to crash into Jupiter's clouds this month, but instead the mission has been extended until at least July 2021.
That gives scientists a chance to complete the mission's main goal: to map Jupiter's magnetic and gravitational fields.
This work is done by flying Juno over Jupiter's cloud tops at speeds roughly 75 times as fast as a bullet. These flybys, called perijoves, happen once every 53.5 days. The most recent one (Juno's 14th perijove) occurred on July 16, and the prior flyby was on May 24.
The high-speed trips have allowed NASA to document the gas giant like never before. An optical camera called JunoCam captures beautiful images of Jupiter each time, and the space agency uploads the raw photo data to its websites. Then people around the world can download that data and process it into stunning color pictures.
Here are 13 mesmerizing images from the latest perijove, along with a few highlights from past flybys.
Juno makes an elliptical orbit around Jupiter. It's a compromise between getting unprecedented new data and staying out of the planet's intense radiation field, which can damage sensitive electronics.
During a perijove, the Juno probe dives over Jupiter's north pole, screams past the Jovian cloud tops at 130,000 mph, and exits at the south pole.

While the probe is close to Jupiter, Juno records the planet with radar systems, radiation detectors, magnetic and gravitational field recorders, and more.

This high-contrast photo was processed by NASA software engineer Kevin M. Gill, who processes raw data from each perijove soon after it becomes available. You can find more of his work on Twitter or Flickr.
Juno was the first spacecraft to fly above and below Jupiter, photograph the planet's poles, and begin to unravel their mysteries. Color processing often gives the storms near the poles a blue hue.
Researchers have used data collected by Juno to model Jupiter's storm-choked north pole in 3D.

Juno can't get a picture of the entire planet at once. The spacecraft is roughly 66 feet long, while Jupiter is more than 88,840 miles wide at its middle. Jupiter is about 1,321 times as voluminous as Earth.
Björn Jónsson, an Icelandic computer scientist, recently stitched together over 100 images from the Juno mission and the Cassini mission to Saturn to create this full photographic map of Jupiter.

Among Juno fans, photos of the Great Red Spot have been a favorite, since the storm could easily swallow Earth. The probe didn't photograph that area during the most recent flyby, though — the last new images of the spot were captured in April 2018.

But Jupiter has plenty of other remarkable cloudscapes and storms swirling. This swath of high-altitude clouds is located in the planet's northern hemisphere.
Jupiter's storms and clouds form patterns that can look as trippy as they are beautiful. Seán Doran, a graphic artist who is one of the most prolific processors of JunoCam data, created this image. "Planet of Screaming Skulls," he called it on Twitter.
Doran also made this mysterious portrait of the planet, in which you can see the twinkle of myriad stars in the background.

You can see more of Doran's work on his Twitter or Flickr pages, and he also sells some of his Jupiter images as posters through the platform Redbubble.
Although Juno will continue to orbit Jupiter through at least July 2021, NASA ultimately plans to destroy the robot by plunging it into Jupiter's clouds.

The rationale for that dramatic ending is similar to the one behind the Cassini probe's demise at Saturn: Jupiter's icy moon Europa may be habitable to alien life, so deliberately destroying Juno will prevent it from crashing into that moon and contaminating whatever's there.

Jute fibres are one of the highly cultivated fibres in the world but you want to know about the origin of the Jute fibres, so here it is.
If we look on to the origin of fibres, jute fibres are shiny vegetable fibre, which is spun into a spun and coarse thread, which is further manufactured into a carpet.
It is one of the highly cultivated fibre after cotton. Jute rugs are commonly available but nowadays coir flooring has increased its demands as it is readily available. There are many benefits of the coir flooring like they are strong flooring accompanied by durability. Comparison of coir flooring and jute flooring, jute flooring is most durable and resistant to the weather conditions.
How jute carpets are manufactured?
The manufacturing of the jute carpets are made then they are manufactured from the coir fibre which is produced in Asian countries. It is extracted from the monocarp tissue of the coconut. It is also known as "Future fibres" as it is durable and resistant. It has the advantage of making into geotextiles.
After the jute threads are woven into the carpets. They are one of the most durable and eco-friendly carpets available till now.
Streakiness of the coir carpets can be assumed from the fact that they are almost impervious to the weather conditions. These are made from coconut coir which makes them natural insect repellent and moth repellants.
As improved technology and enhanced designing, the jute fibres which are available in various new patterns and design. It gives your home and office an aesthetic and modern appearance.
As discussed above, jute carpets are one of the most durable carpets available in the world so it is also a onetime investment for your home or office. They are quite a water resistant as compared to their companions which are sisal and other rugs. These are 100 per cent biodegradable and ideally suited for the high traffic areas.
Apart from being cost friendly, jute rugs and carpets have a unique beauty which gives your living space natural and earthy appearance. This is something which will make a style statement in your home and living space and the natural beauty will be perfect for it. But there are some essential like treating it before fitting is absolutely necessary.
Jute carpet is coarsest of all the carpet and it also provides a high level of grip to the floors. Always opt for the jute carpet as they are strong, soft and quite resistant to the adverse weather conditions.

What did DawgNation's scouting panel have to say about 4-star signee Chris Smith?
Editor's Note: The stars say 2018 UGA commit Chris Smith rates as a 4-star prospect. He's seen by the well-respected 247SportsComposite as the nation's No. 30 CB and No. 306 player overall. DawgNation formed an advisory panel made up of state championship coaches, well-respected high school coaches, scouts, former SEC players and former NFL players to find out a lot more than that.
Can he play? We gave our panel complete autonomy to break down what they see from Smith on his Hudl highlight film. What is Georgia getting with Smith? Well, here goes …..
FYI: According to the 247Sports composite rankings, he rates as the fifth-lowest-rated signee in the nation's top-rated class for 2018. That should not be seen so much as a slight but maybe a reason why Smith has been a popular choice for analysts regarding the most underrated signee in the class. There are a lot of intangible strengths to his game. They spark those observations.
Overview: Smith is supposed to be a shadow for Mel Tucker's "League of Shadows," but the common thread here is the physicality in the way he plays the game. Smith can cover. He's competitive, but he will never be confused with a corner who's not willing to get behind his pads.
What they liked: Several coaches noted the way he tries to punish his opponent and intimidate them.
What they didn't love: His size isn't SEC ready. He needs to tip the scales at 180 to 185 pounds to be the most effective in that conference.

New frontiers in passive radar and sonar
Passive sensor systems may be ready to come into their own, as high-performance embedded computing technology becomes powerful enough to handle the massive computing load that passive systems require in targeting stealthy aircraft and submarines.
By J.R. Wilson
Radar and sonar technologies came into their own as pivotal capabilities in World War II, during the Battle of Britain, the Battle of the Atlantic, and many other battles that helped shape the latter half of the 20th Century. Research in the 1930s led to widespread deployment of active radar and sonar systems across three operational domains - air, land, and sea - during and after World War II.
For the past half century, efforts to defeat both have spawned generations of stealth technology and a renewed focus on passive radar and sonar, which actually predate active systems by three decades.
The Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor is a 5th Generation fighter incorporating stealth shaping and radar-absorbent materials, as well as a passive radar detector with more than 30 antennas blended into the wings and fuselage for all-round coverage.
Radar, short for radio detection and ranging, bounces radio waves off objects to calculate their distances from the RF transmitter. Sonar, which stands for sound navigation and ranging, bounces sound waves off objects to calculate their distances from the sound transmitter. Most often sonar is for detecting and locating surface vessels, submarines, or other maritime objects for detection and tracking or to assist navigation and obstacle avoidance.
The biggest drawback to both is they are the equivalents of flashlights in the dark: While they help the user illuminate targets of interest, they also help others see the location of the user. That has led to development of less visible approaches that involve RF and sound transmitters that appear to be causing random noise, rather than conducting a determined search.
"There are spread-spectrum transmissions for radar that is an active technique that, instead of a blatant pulse train, it appears you are putting out noise and it's not as obvious you're there," says Marc Couture, senior product manager, digital signaling at Curtiss-Wright Defense Solutions in Ashburn, Va.
Passive radar and sonar systems, however, do not generate their own signals at all. They capitalize on existing signals in the environment, and the passive radar and sonar receivers essentially just listen for those signals and use power signal processing to sort these signals into useful information.
"With passive techniques, you rely on the environment to light up objects," Couture says. "In 2016, there are a lot of things that light up everything around you in terms of radio emissions. With passive radar, radio waves bouncing off each other from a host of other sources can give you a picture without sending out your own pulse. That also is true with sonar - if you have a sensitive enough system, you can pick up objects without sending out a ping."
Sensitive sensors
"Both require extremely sensitive sensors, certainly more than just one single-point sensor, and a lot more processing," Couture explains. "If you think of radar, you put out a pulse train and expect it to come back, modified by whatever it bounces off. With passive, you're using reflections off clutter and buildings to pull out a target in the sky, so there is a lot more work to correlate all those different wavefronts."
One way to understand that is to look at the downfall of H.G. Wells's Invisible Man character, who could be seen - and tracked - when his invisible body caused what appeared to be a bubble in rain or fog.
In the real world, of course, stealth platforms are not invisible to the naked eye, but appear as something else - usually much smaller - on radar or sonar. There have been two primary ways to do that: special shaping, such as used on the F-117 Nighthawk, the world's first stealth aircraft - or special materials that absorb rather than reflect radar signals, as used on the second stealth aircraft, the F-22 Raptor.
Both methods also have been used on surface and subsurface naval vessels, such as the Navy's new Zumwalt-class guided missile destroyers and Virginia-class attack submarines. More recently it's been used in designs for next-generation unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).
These platforms represent the U.S. military's generational lead in stealth over the rest of the world and proved vital to air superiority in the first and second Gulf wars. But a future conflict with a technologically near-peer adversary - such as China, Russia, or Iran - or nations they support could see that advantage melt way. Not because those nations are developing their own stealth platforms - which they have been working on for years - but because they are concentrating on far less expensive and easily deployed counter-measures.
"Faced with the prospect of aerial stealth proliferation, states in the 21st Century are looking for anti-stealth defense options. One such alternative, passive radar, appears a cost-effective counter to stealth," according to an October 2009 National Defense University (NDU) report, "Radar vs. Stealth: Passive Radar and the Future of U.S. Military Power," that is even more pertinent today.
Finding stealth aircraft
"Integrating a system of netted re- ceivers, passive radar can detect, track, and target piloted and unpiloted stealth systems and provide cuing for anti-air weapons systems," the report states. "A passive radar system emits no radio energy and can be well camouflaged in urban and rural landscapes. The threat system produces no indications on friendly radar warning receivers and is difficult to locate and target. Faced with a passive radar threat, the United States may find itself unable to achieve air superiority at an acceptable cost."
Essentially, passive systems reverse the concept of stealth, from hiding ships and aircraft from radar and sonar to hiding radar and sonar from those platforms. Which explains why much of the public literature on passive radar and sonar is coming from China, Iran, and Russia.
"Ongoing advances in passive radar will deny traditional means to defeat enemy air defenses, make air superiority difficult to achieve against a passive radar opponent, and require changes in thinking to maintain U.S. power projection capability," according to the NDU report.
In February 2015, an online affiliate of Russian newspaper Rossiyskaya Gazeta announced Russia's top five most effective electronic warfare (EW) systems. Number two on that list was the Moskva-1, a passive radar system that enables Russian troops to detect and identify airborne targets as far as 240 miles away while their own position remains hidden.
As global communications systems continue to advance and proliferate, the availability of opportunity illuminators increases, as well as not only land-based systems, but also satellites. One of the newest systems showing great potential for passive radar is long-term evolution (LTE), which has greatly improved cell phone signals.
"Experimental results showed that the LTE-based passive radar system has the capability to detect car, motor bike, and human body moving with various speeds, such as 10, 20, 30, and 40 kilometers per hour, and they are detected at different ranges from zero to 130 meters. Therefore, from the experimental results, there is no doubt that the LTE signal can be utilized as a signal source for PBR [Passive Bistatic Radar] system," according to researchers at Universiti Putra Malaysia.
The future USS Zumwalt (DDG 1000), the U.S. Navy's largest destroyer, incorporates stealth shaping and materials. The multimission ship will provide independent forward presence and deterrence, support special operations forces, and operate as an integral part of joint and combined expeditionary forces.

Research in passive systems
"In spite of the positive results obtained, it should be pointed out that there is still a need for further studies and improvements," researchers say. "A future study could include implementing advanced signal processing algorithms for improving detection accuracy. Furthermore, more experiments could be conducted for investigating the system's capability for detecting and tracking of moving targets at a very low speed and low target profile."
At the University of Strathclyde in Scotland, researchers also looked at the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) as a source of illumination for passive radar, including the possibility of exploiting GNSS as an opportunity illuminator to measure the micro-Doppler signature of helicopter rotor blades.
This approach represents "a system exploiting the energy transmitted from these non-cooperative transmitters... and has been successfully investigated in different configurations and using different sources of illumination," University of Strathclyde experts reported. "This kind of technology has several advantages thus opening to many applications for civilian and military purposes. Exploiting an existing source of RF energy, the system can be cheaper, stealthier, frequency allocation-free, and provide the capability to have information in portions of the spectrum unavailable in the past."
Active sonar can be a greater danger to the submarine using it than active radar is to an aircraft, which has significantly limited military use of it, as described by former U.S. Navy attack submarine sonar technician Steve Jacobs in response to a question on Quora.com, an online service providing expert answers to questions on any topic.
"In order to detect a contact with a ping, the sound has to travel at least two times the distance between the target and the submarine, plus have enough energy when it arrives to be detected by the submarine. If the sub (or any ship) is automatically pinging, the 'range gate' lets others know what distance the ship transmitting can detect contacts as well as what kind of sonar is being used," he wrote. "The only time we've pinged in a tactical situation is to take a single ping to verify a final range to a target we were going to engage with a torpedo."
The rising interest in and use of passive systems does not mean America's stealth platforms are obsolete nor the nation's multi-billion dollar investment in them was wasted. Stealth gave U.S. forces a distinct military advantage in Iraq, during Operation Desert Storm and Operation Iraqi Freedom, and Operation Enduring Freedom-Afghanistan and continue to aid in U.S. military operations against ISIS.

Big challenge to stealth
The ongoing development of passive systems by nations that supply equipment to Second and Third World nations hostile to the United States is likely to reduce their stealth effectiveness severely in the years to come.
This has led some of the U.S. military's top officers to question the wisdom of relying too heavily on stealth to counter the anti-access and area-denial (A2/AD) threat American aircraft are certain to face in future conflicts. Chief among those has been Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Jonathan Greenert, who says "if something moves fast through the air, disrupts molecules and puts out heat... it's going to be detectable."
That also was the conclusion of a January 2014 paper by the Center for a New American Security: "One recent analysis argued that there has been a revolution in detecting aircraft with low RCS [radar cross-section], while there have not been commensurate enhancements in stealth."
Curtiss-Wright's Couture, however, sees passive systems not as the enemy of stealth but as a significant part of future stealth systems.
"With passive, it's part of being stealthy. But it's not just the shape of the aircraft and materials that cut down the radar cross-section; now you have sensors that don't light up the aircraft after you've done all that to try to hide it. So it will give us an advantage - although there are some adversaries that will catch up and find ways to hide themselves. So how do we find them?" he says.
"A lot of passive will be in more stand-off platforms that may assist special operations but not be part of it. You'll be able to map out the actual war theater in incredible detail without being detected. It's about prosecuting an enemy target and they don't know you're coming," Couture continues. "If a drone is using passive radar techniques, as long as it has enough power, you won't see it coming on a radar screen and you're zapped before you even know it. So the first nations to field that kind of capability will have an advantage."
Nazi Germany employed a passive bistatic radar system during World War II, using Britain's own Chain Home radars as non-cooperative illuminators to reveal the presence of aircraft flying over the southern part of the North Sea. Even so, bistatic radar systems were largely replaced by monostatic systems as early as the late 1930s. As the transmitter and receiver systems became smaller, it became possible to place them on aircraft and most ships. Bistatic systems regained some attention when scientists discovered useful properties in scattered radar energy.
Those experiments and others led to the 1955 deployment of the AN/FPS-23 fluttar bistatic radar system along the North American Distant Early Warning (DEW) Line to detect low-flying bombers. That system remained part of the DEW Line for about five years.
Passive radar saw its own initial resurgence in the 1980s as computing power and digital receiver technology began rapid increases in capability, allowing digital signal processing exploiting a variety of non-cooperative opportunity illuminators and, for the first time, cross-correlation techniques to detect targets and estimate their ranges. Many nations conducted classified development in this area, but the first public announcement came in 1998 with the launch of Lockheed-Martin's commercial Silent Sentry system, exploiting FM radio and analog television transmitters as opportunity illuminators.
Processing requirements
'We like to build high-performance embedded computers with all sorts of embedded processing technology. With passive radar and sonar, you need a lot more processing because you have a lot more data to collect and correlate. And when sensors are more sensitive, analog to digital converters have a higher bit rate, which means the actual high-resolution data is much larger," Couture says.
"If you have 16 channels instead of four, for example, you end up with a fire hose of data. With passive radar, the actual techniques are quite intensive. The processing technologies weren't there before, but now the densities are so high in computing you can think about using these in mobile platforms."
Relying on environmental RF and microwaves to light up the object, instead of a radar pulse and very specific radar stacks and algorithms honed in on that return pulse, the algorithms are far more intensive, correlating wavefronts from stationary and moving surface objects," he says. "In the past, that has been a major roadblock to using passive radar on smaller platforms, such as UAVs, that have a limited payload for volume and power.
"With this advanced processing power, you need to process all these new algorithms to track objects without giving away your location, which is especially valuable for stealth aircraft," Couture continues. "And that trend will continue as we have more cores and get more parallel, providing more density performance per watt, so you will see more algorithms coming off the shelf at DARPA and MIT that were not affordable and were too intensive in the past. It's not just one algorithm that fits all scenarios - you will use different ones over urban areas than deserts, for example."
Much work needs to be done in the digital signal processing community before this could be considered a mature technology. "It is really very early, so what is out there now is primitive compared to what will be out there in the future, maybe a decade from now," Couture says. "That will be riding the continuation of Moore's Law on processing, new algorithm development, dealing with stealth technologies. With conformal antennas you can absorb from all directions, which increases the data hose. A communications band that used to be 20 MHz to 3 Gig has now expanded out to 6 Gig and the classic EW bands have expanded to 27 Gig. Some new radars also operate at a higher frequency, so there are new wavelengths to prosecute; to use these passive techniques, you need more processing to deal with more channels and wider bandwidth."
In a 2015 paper, "Target Tracking and Receiver Placement in MIMO DVB-T Based PCL" from Iran's Sharif University of Technology, researchers looked at the electronic warfare applications of using multiple antennas for transmission and reception of a passive radar system in a multiple input/multiple output (MIMO) configuration.
"The idea of using multiple of such illuminators to get the advantages of MIMO technology, besides the advantages of passive illumination, is new and attractive," they wrote. "An excellent candidate of such configuration is a DVB-T [Digital Video Broadcasting-Terrestrial] SFN (single frequency network). Various obstacles and considerations appear when working with a MIMO DVB-T based passive radar system. Using the commercial transmitting stations already working in the environment as the non-cooperative transmitter of the radar system makes the radar covert."
Passive radar systems in the future may help with military surveillance and reconnaissance effectively by hiding the RF transmitters in these systems.
"This passive radar - or namely PCL (passive coherent location) - is resilient to electronic countermeasures which use the signals emitted by the radar. In such passive systems, two sets of antennas are used: one for receiving the direct signal from its main source (reference antenna) and another one for collecting reflections arriving from the targets (reflection antenna). Here, detection is done through computation of CAF (Cross Ambiguity Function)... which shows how much correlation exists between reference and reflected signals. A CAF's peak in the range Doppler board is representative of a target candidate."
In July 2015, researchers at Pakistan's National University of Sciences and Technology reported on the effects on the range measurement accuracy of a Wi-Fi-based passive radar when multiple copies of signal, from the same target, are received due to propagation through a rich-scattering environment.
"These multipath returns from stationary scatters induced range measurement inaccuracies in passive radars including offset of the target from its true range, smearing of the target in range dimension, or appearance of ghost targets," they wrote. "Relationship between range measurement inaccuracies due to target multipaths and range resolution of transmission waveform has been studied. A two-step solution, that is, signal separation followed by equalisation, is also proposed to mitigate the effects of multipaths in Wi-Fi-based passive radars.
"Long-range surveillance applications of passive radars, using various analog and digital waveforms, have reached a point of maturity and practical systems have started to appear in market for various defense and civil applications, like Silent Sentry by Lockheed Martin, Celldar by Roke Manor Research Limited, and Homeland Alerter 100 by Thales Group. Owing to the many advantages offered by the passive radars, there [also] is a growing interest to utilize them in urban and indoor sensing environments for the detection of human or vehicular targets."
Passive sonar has been in use for decades, and is one an effective means of detecting an adversary's submerged submarines while remaining hidden to enemy sensors.
Dealing with weak signals
Three researchers at Villanova University and one from the Air Force Research Laboratory published a paper on "Target Localization in a Multi-Static Passive Radar System Through Convex Optimization" in Signal Processing, a publication of the European Association for Signal Processing, in February 2014. They concluded the use of pre-existing commercial broadcast signals rather than dedicated transmission and receipt stations may be as much a weakness as a strength.
"Compared to conventional active radar systems, which typically operate in a monostatic mode and emit stronger signals with a wide signal bandwidth, MPR [multi-packet reception] systems use broadcast signals which in general are very weak and have an extremely narrow bandwidth. These features make it difficult to exploit an MPR system for accurate target position estimation. In addition, MPR receivers may often be implemented on aerial or ground moving vehicles. In this case, the radar platform may only have inaccurate knowledge about its own instantaneous position. This uncertainty is caused by the accuracy limitation of the positioning system as well as multipath propagations," they wrote.
"Target localization is an important task that has received extensive attention in various applications, such as wireless communications, sensor networks, urban canyon, and through-the-wall radar systems. Specifically, multi-lateration techniques utilize the range information observed at multiple positions, which are distributed over a region, to uniquely localize a target. Depending on the applications, range information can be obtained using time-of-arrival, time-delay-of-arrival, and received signal strength indicator. On the other hand, the observation positions may be achieved using fixed receivers or synthesized using a single moving platform. In the latter case, the receiver positions are subject to inaccuracy."
The ultimate future of passive radar and sonar is still to be determined - as is which nations will achieve the highest levels and broadest applications first and most effectively. Even more than acceptance by military leaders, that will depend on the continued maintenance of American technological leadership through aggressive research and development.
"You can have a fleet of assets that can handle multiple modes and, on top of that, cross-cuing. It's about commanding the entire EM spectrum, which includes not just RF but light and hyperspectral. It's a software-defined platform," Couture says. "The labs are very important because there is always a need for advanced algorithms because we don't have every mode solved or every adversary in check. I can't say I've seen a big pickup in demand [from the military], but I do anticipate it."

MCCARTHY: Trump's failure to release tax returns signals a deeper issue
Ryan McCarthy, Columnist|September 27, 2016
Photo by http://www.flickr.com
No matter which candidate you support in this presidential election, the need for greater transparency from our candidates is evident.
Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton has had her fair share of issues. Clinton failed to address reporters at a news conference for nine months (holding her first conference since December earlier this month) and her private email server has been a topic of debate since March 2015.
Still, Donald Trump's refusal to disclose his tax returns is far more troubling, setting a dangerous precedent for future candidates, and underscores a major problem with accountability in our nation's politics.
Since the resignation of Richard Nixon, there has been a push for greater transparency from presidential candidates. In the midst of the Watergate hearings, a federal prosecutor from Baltimore discovered that Vice President Spiro Agnew had failed to pay taxes on bribes he solicited as governor of Maryland. Under pressure, Nixon decided to release more of his tax information. The Washington Post's investigative team discovered that the president owed almost half a million dollars in back taxes.
When people enter public life, they consent to more scrutiny than they would normally receive. When candidates run for president, they submit themselves to the highest level of scrutiny imaginable.
To date, Trump's excuse for failing to release his returns is that he is under a "routine audit." Though earlier this year, the IRS confirmed that it is perfectly legal for citizens to release their information if they are under audit.
Even if being under audit prevented Trump from releasing his returns, he could still release his pre-2009 returns, which have already gone through an audit and are ready for public viewing. A letter from Trump's attorney stated that they would not be releasing the pre-2009 information either because "they're all connected."
Given his comments, it would appear that Trump believes people simply don't care about his taxes. However, in 2012 he advised then-presidential candidate Mitt Romney differently — that he must release his taxes in order to dispel any rumors of what they might contain. Now Romney is returning the favor, writing in a Facebook post, "It is disqualifying for a modern-day presidential nominee to refuse to release tax returns to the voters, especially one who has not been subject to public scrutiny in either military or public service."
The only conceivable reason for Trump not to release his returns is if he has something to hide, which should be seriously troubling to all of us. It could be something as minor as he is not worth what he says he is or something as major as he pays almost nothing in taxes. I'm sure for some voters, the fact that he likely pays very little tax might be a sign of his ingenuity and business savvy. Hopefully, the majority see this as disqualifying.
Although Hillary Clinton has seen valid criticism over the lack of transparency of her private server, unlike Trump, she has faced actual consequences including congressional hearings and an FBI investigation. Also unlike Trump, she has released her tax returns for the past 16 years. Her vice presidential pick Tim Kaine has released nine years. Trump's own VP pick Mike Pence released the last 10 years of his tax returns, proving someone in the Republican campaign sees the importance of financial disclosure.
Tax returns can reveal a lot about a person's true character, and it would appear that Trump would like to keep that hidden from voters. If anything, this election has proven again and again that voters place little value on honesty and truth. The electorate's failure to punish Trump over a historic lack of transparency is even more disheartening. We can point fingers all we want, but the reality of the situation is that it is our responsibility to hold candidates accountable. Trump's refusal to be transparent is un-presidential, and it is on us to label it as such.

As I grow older, I realize that folk near and dear to me will die. I expect this and as hard as it is to prepare for, I know one day I'll have to deal with the death of my elders. Weird as it may sound, it can be harder for me to deal with the death of those in the media. These artists and pop culture icons remind me of certain time periods in my life and their death makes me look a bit more at my own mortality. A Tribe Called Quest represents the dawning of hip hop (for me) and my coming into my own. When I learned of Phife Dawg's passing, it hit hard. He's only 5 years older than I...I realize he had to deal with the harsh realities of diabetes and kidney disease and now there's no more suffering. That's a blessing. And he left a gift...RIP Phife Dawg.

Borthwick Institute for Archives, University of York
GB 193 NHS/DG
Deighton Grove Hospital
0.02 cubic metres
1 box and 1 roll
Administrative records, comprising visitor's reports, 1966-1971, newspaper cutting regarding the opening of the annexe, 1947; land and building records, comprising plans and drawings, c.1927-1928; patient records, comprising case books, 1963-1970, and a letter, 1949.
Deighton Grove House at Crockey Hill, south of York, was purchased with its estate by York County Hospital in 1945 for use as an annexe for post-operative and semi-convalescent adult and child cases. The house was set in extensive grounds of 70 acres with a large pond, tennis court and putting green, and a garden producing vegetables.
The buildings were altered and added to during 1946 and the hospital was opened for patients on 8 September 1947.. It was under the control of a Sister-in-Charge. There were 46-47 beds but because of the difficulty of obtaining furnishings and staff it initially opened with only 25.
The acquisition of the new premises was designed to extend available accommodation at the County Hospital which could not be provided at the main building due to war time building restrictions. However the hospital authorities were also taking advantage of the opportunity to provide healthy accommodation in the country for convalescing patients, and expressed the view in their 1947 annual report that 'future hospital services should be outside not in the centre of large towns.' It was also considered that Deighton Grove might be the modest beginning of a future hospital centre for York and large areas of the East and North Ridings.
Less than one year after the opening of Deighton Grove both it and its parent hospital passed into National Health Service (NHS) hands, under York A Group Hospital Management Committee. There were 807 discharges in 1950, 756 in 1951, 820 in 1953 and about 600 each year in the later 1950s and 1960s. The only substantial structural addition after becoming NHS was the addition of a sun lounge for patients in 1951.
In 1955 it was designated a hospital rather than an annexe because it increasingly received patients from hospitals other than its parent one. The children's ward closed in 1955 due to a lack of demand; it reopened as a female medical ward and the bed complement was reduced from 47 beds to 44.
Deighton Grove continued to fulfil the function of providing pre-convalescent and post-operative beds, both medical; and surgical, up to 1971. In that year its function changed to that of psychiatric hospital and it was used as an annexe of Naburn Hospital. Initially this change of use was to allow an upgrading of several wards at Naburn, but it continued to fulfil this role up to its closure at the end of October 1976.
Records are open to the public, subject to the overriding provisions of relevant legislation, including data protection laws.
The archive was deposited at the Borthwick Institute in 1995 as part of the transfer of York Health Archives to the Institute from their temporary home at Clifton Hospital.

Bobby Lee Featured in New NBC Sitcom
Posted On August 23, 2012 Film & TV
Bobby Lee is a regular on the new NBC sitcom "Animal Practice" as Dr. Yamamoto.
His character is described as an offbeat veterinarian who is devoted to his practice, but equally devoted to gambling and partying with the rest of the staff.
The show premiered Aug. 12 and will air in its regular time slot, Wednesdays at 8 p.m., starting Sept. 26. The first episode can be viewed online at www.nbc.com.
Bobby Lee as Dr. Yamamoto (NBC)
"Animal Practice" centers on Dr. George Coleman (Justin Kirk, "Weeds," "Angels in America"), a top veterinarian with an impressive list of famous animal patients at Crane Animal Hospital, a bustling New York City veterinary practice where it often seems as if the patients are running the place.
Despite his unorthodox style, George has an undeniable gift with animals of all kinds — except the human kind. Much to his chagrin, George learns that his ex-girlfriend, Dorothy Crane (JoAnna Garcia Swisher, "Better with You"), has inherited the family business and is now George's boss. Whip-smart and ambitious, Dorothy shakes up the hospital as she brings order to the chaos and butts heads with George's animal-friendly administration.
In addition to Lee, the supporting cast members are Tyler Labine ("Reaper," "Sons of Tucson") as Dr. Doug Jackson, a vet who's great with animals, but hapless in matters of the heart; Kym Whitley ("We Bought a Zoo") as Juanita; and newcomer Betsy Sodaro ("The Nick Show Kroll") as Nurse Angela. Dr. Rizzo, the resident capuchin monkey at the hospital and George's closest companion, is played by Crystal ("The Hangover II," NBC's "Community").
Executive producers are Scot Armstrong ("The Hangover Part II," "Old School") and Ravi Nandan ("Best Friends Forever") of American Work Inc., along with Emmy Award winners Joe and Anthony Russo ("Community," "Arrested Development"), as well as Gail Lerner ("Happy Endings"). "Animal Practice" was written by Brian Gatewood and Alessandro Tanaka ("The Sitter"), who also serve as executive producers.
Lee, best known from his numerous years as a cast member on Fox's "MADtv," can be seen as a regular guest on E!'s "Chelsea Lately," and has been touring the country year‐round as a stand‐up comic.
A native of San Diego, Lee was expected to follow in his father's footsteps, running the family clothing store. After stints in a local rock band and at the local community college, he was spotted by Frank Burns, the legendary manager of La Jolla's Comedy Store.
In 1995, Pauly Shore saw Lee onstage and asked the young comedian to open for him in Las Vegas. It was then that Lee met Shore's mother, the celebrated owner of the Comedy Store, Mitzi Shore. Lee became a regular at the club, and also went on the road with comic Carlos Mencia.
Lee landed a cast role on "MADtv" in 1999 and quickly became an audience favorite on the long-running sketch show, which aired for 14 seasons, creating such characters as confused film critic Johnny Gan, the world's worst interpreter, Bae Sung, and the Blind Kung Fu Master. Audiences loved his takes on such real‐world figures as Connie Chung, Kim Jong-Il, and John McCain.
Lee's film credits include "Kickin' It Old School" and "Killer Pad," both of which will be released later this year, and Sacha Baron Cohen's "The Dictator." He played Kenneth Park in the big-screen comedy "Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle" and its second sequel, "A Very Harold and Kumar 3D Christmas."
Lee also appeared in "Curb Your Enthusiasm" and "Mind of Mencia," and has performed stand‐up on "Late Friday," "Premium Blend" and NBC's "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno." He currently lives in Los Angeles.
