Band gap

forward on situations where it is deemed necessary. We have been oriented with the contents of a first-aid kit which pretty much is comprised of gauze, bandages and everything in between and we also have surely seen hot/cold packs sitting in between Band-Aids. With all due respect to modern science and how you've handled your first-aid classes, but are we truly aware of the proper usage of hot and cold compresses? If not, then don't hesitate to read on.…

I attended a lecture with guest speaker Julia Gillard entitled “Women in Professional and Public Life” held on October 5th at 6:00p.m. She spoke for approximately one hour and then held a question and answer session that lasted a little over 30 minutes. The purpose of the lecture was to create awareness and encourage all of us to fight gender discrimination and to become agents of change. Julia Gillard was the Prime Minister of Australia from June 2010 to June 2013, and has been a champion…

James Baldwin utilizes a biographical approach to reveal his personal experience of the Harlem Renaissance era and how it is has impacted his life, which allows the reader to connect and empathize with the characters throughout “Sonny’s Blues.” During this time, he struggles to understand the life of his relative, resulting in an act of selfishness and later develops into a character that becomes aware of the hardships of poverty and drug addiction, a burden that is hard to escape. This…

life for Mia by working as a jazz keyboardist with a higher income. I realized that during dream chasing, facing the reality cannot be neglected. Especially when we are growing up, we have to bear the responsibility for our lives. There is a distinct gap between “what you want to do” and “what you need to do”. Delving into Marslow’s hierarchy of needs, “physiological” and “safety” are the basic needs while “self-actualization” is at a higher level. We are required to fulfill the fundamental life…

Oedipus Crux, the article I read was deceptively simple. On the exterior, the article posed a simple question, did Oedipus actually murder his father. It used this question to weave a counter the dominant narrative that the majority of people believe. Kurt Fosso talks about the process of teaching his kids in class, and through his teaching of contrasting perspective about the play Oedipus Rex, the kids, “ initially viewed this task perverse or just plain impossible”[Fosso 2]. He diagnoses the…

Eastern observers. Saturn is the flattest planet. Its polar diameter is 90% of its equatorial diameter, this is due to its low density and fast rotation. Saturn orbits the Sun once every 29.4 Earth years.Saturn’s upper atmosphere is divided into bands of clouds.The planet also has a vortex over its south pole that resembles a hurricane-like storm. It exists in layers that get denser farther into the planet. Eventually, deep inside, the hydrogen becomes metallic. At the core lies a hot…

The stadium is filled, and the cheering from the crowd makes it hard for me to hear myself think. The smell of popcorn and other goods are being vended at the concession stand. The band has left the field with their piece still drumming in my head. We are in the first quarter with the lead; the scoreboard shows a score of twenty-eight to seven. The coaches are yelling, “offense” so; I put my helmet on with the upmost eagerness and headed to my position on the field. I played running back for…

My son was persistent on the idea of joining the boy scouts since he was fascinated with the nature and the outdoors which is why we always took trips to the mountains and played in our backyard. Leo was also very involved in the school choir and band which he was excited about going to every day in school. I never pushed Leo to partake in anything he didn’t want to do, so he was always independent and free to decide on what activities he wished…

the simplest meaning of happiness into a novel that fills a soul to the brim. Nothing feels more patriotic than a story about a brave and courageous young man just trying to discover his own path amongst the influence of others. Even though the time gap may seem extremely large between the…

• Low efficiency compared to non-tunable white LEDs. Full-color tuning Also referred to as RGB, RGBA, RGBW, spectrally tunable and “color changing”, full-color tunable products often consist of 3 or more LED sets. The individual LEDs can be narrow-band LEDs (producing a “pure” color, usually RGB), or coated LEDs. The monochromatic LEDs are usually red, green and blue (the primary colors of light, RGB), and can be augmented with amber (A) and white (W). The King Blade is a typical RGBW full-color…
