‘Trust is gone’: fears grow as police on some Florida campuses trained by Ice

At least 11 state colleges enroll in program that trains officers for ‘limited’ involvement in immigration operations

Irony is: the woman isn’t even supportive of her child: She told the story in the context of trying to talk the kid out of transitioning and come back to the church.

But just being related to a trans person is enough to set these people off. Regardless of your views on the topic.

"To whom it may concern I am emailing you regarding the hateful incident that happened at your University’s Involvement Fair on September 10, 2021 between Native Student Alliance (NSA) and Turning Points USA chapter at the University of Denver (DU). As mentioned in a recent Instagram post from NSA, three Native Student Alliance (NSA) relatives were verbally harassed by other University of Denver (DU) students associated with Turning Point USA (TPUSA) . As the harassment ensued, other Students of Color and allies created a human wall between NSA’s and TPUSA’s information table. Their quick and selfless actions kept members of  NSA safe from further assault. This is quite alarming and worrying that Native students are not safe on your college campus and reinforces the reality of the ongoing settler colonial violence that Indigenous Peoples experience within the United States. I, and many others, demand that your University changes and LISTENS to what the Native Student Alliance demanded in their Instagram post. Below are their demands. The Native Student Alliance and their community demand the following: • Open up a full inquiry and investigation into the incident through the Office of Equal Opportunity and Title IX. • Identify the harassing students and hold them accountable according to DU’s honor code.  • Revoke Turning Point USA’s charter as a DU student organization. • Faculty, Staff, and Students involved with the planning of the Involvement Fair receive training on how to best support and advocate for Native students. Thank you for reading, and I hope Native student experiences improve at the University of Denver. Best, A concerned supporter of Native Student Alliance "

Have you checked out our blog series #talesofsavingwhales? We try to focus on personal stories about what you do to help whales (and marine life) emphasizing on how every small action can help. We have asked people for their stories which you can read all of on our website and contribute to if you're interested! @jennacostadeedy is a 30 year old marine educator at the New England Aquarium who is also a writer, influencer and self proclaimed nerd. To read her (and others!) post, head to our website (link in bio). ⁠⠀ #whaletales #blog #savethewhales #whales #whalestory #rightwhale #savetheocean #marinelife #storytelling #educations #beplasticwise #whaleblog https://www.instagram.com/p/CT5YyKnBy1k/?utm_medium=tumblr

Mosfet as a switch

We saw previously, that the N-channel, Enhancement-mode MOSFET (e-MOSFET) operates using a positive input voltage and has an extremely high input resistance (almost infinite) making it possible to interface with nearly any logic gate or driver capable of producing a positive output.

We also saw that due to this very high input (Gate) resistance we can safely parallel together many different MOSFET until we achieve the current handling capacity that we required.

While connecting together various MOSFETS in parallel may enable us to switch high currents or high voltage loads, doing so becomes expensive and impractical in both components and circuit board space. To overcome this problem Power Field Effect Transistors or Power FET’s where developed.V

We now know that there are two main differences between field effect transistors, depletion-mode only for JFET’s and both enhancement-mode and depletion-mode for MOSFETs. In this tutorial we will look at using the Enhancement-mode MOSFET as a Switch as these transistors require a positive gate voltage to turn “ON” and a zero voltage to turn “OFF” making them easily understood as switches and also easy to interface with logic gates.

The operation of the enhancement-mode MOSFET, or e-MOSFET, can best be described using its I-V characteristics curves shown below. When the input voltage, ( VIN ) to the gate of the transistor is zero, Read more..

hey, i know you don't care for muggle things, but,, could you say that you're proud of me for passing my GED exam? I just, want someone to tell me they're proud.

I may not have the slightest interest in muggle affairs, however I do value the principle of an education. Many muggles, I have found, are woefully incompetent in many ways; I am pleased you have taken a step towards being a more tolerable muggle. So let me offer my congratulations regarding your exam. I am proud that you have done this.
