I find it interesting that you think "served in the U.S. Army" isn't American enough for you.
Foreigners can serve in the US Army. Native Americans weren't automatically US citizens until 1924, but were considered citizens of their sovereign tribe.
European here clearly means both "from Europe" (eg, Latin, Greek, and Cyrillic letters are European, not American), as well as "European Americans" (ie, Americans of European ancestry, and often with cultural ties to Europe.) Just like how "Asian" doesn't always mean "born in Asia", or how "Anglo" can refer to non-Hispanic white Americans rather than being specifically related to England.
Trading with the Spanish in Florida, English ships, or French trappers would all count as "contact with Europeans", and not simply "Americans".
Finally, recall that at the time "American" was a state of mind. A Loyalist at the time would not consider themselves "American", and a Patriot considered a Loyalist to be "inimical to the liberties of America". How do you know if Sequoyah’s father was an American or a Loyalist?
Is that a ban only in classes, or also ban during school hours (including lunch and breaks)?
Does it include after-school activities?
What about on school grounds before/after classes start?
I tried a DDG search for "sweden ban mobile phone school" but the first 100 or so links were essentially all the same AP article that NPR used, with some rewrites.
"it can be collected" is far different from "is collected".
If the data center uses evaporative cooling then most of the water vapor leaves that water basin. While some of that irrigation water goes into the ground and stays in the water basin for a longer time.
Likewise, if you water a lawn - and assuming you are not so daft as to do it when the sun is high - the most of the water will go into the ground, reaching eventually the acquifer or a waterway, for eventual downstream reuse.
This is why cities in dry climates, or places facing a drought, will have restrictions like "No outdoor watering between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m."
> Residents of an Oregon city in the Columbia River Gorge are uneasy with tech giant Google’s latest plan to expand in the region. ...
> The deal to deliver groundwater to Google has drawn skepticism from members of the public who’ve grown wary of Oregon’s water stability in a changing climate, and that suspicion was on full display at a recent City Council meeting. ...
> “I know a number of people have voiced concerns … and you know I share those concerns. Water’s just absolutely critical to our community,” Richardson said at Monday’s council meeting. “As I’ve said to you, Mr. Mayor, and probably to others, this city is an oasis on the edge of a big desert, and the only reason we’re able to thrive here is because of our water supply.”
> The creosote in toothache drops administered to a New York boy cured the pain, but killed the boy. This recalls the entry in the register at Bellevue Hospital, which reads; "Operation successful. Patient died."
The title might be XYZ Hackathon but the word Hackathon isn't really meaningful outside of that scene, so if asked what it is, you'd say a computer programming conference or something like that. When I tell people about Revision, I don't say "demoparty", I say "computer art festival", because that's not subculture jargon.
