Anand Malligavad turned to centuries-old knowledge to reclaim dozens of lakes in the high-tech capital of Bengaluru. Now, he is in demand across India, one of the world’s most water-stressed nations.

Though Chinese boarding schools for Tibetan children have been around since the early 1980s, until fairly recently they had mostly enrolled middle and high school students. But beginning around 2010, the government, in preparation for the new wave of residential preschools, began shutting down local village schools, including the one in our hometown. Then it made preschool a prerequisite for elementary school. Though many of the new boarding schools are far from children's hometowns, refusing to enroll in them would mean children would grow up with little to no education and become further marginalized from an economy that many Tibetans are already excluded from.

Some of the chemicals scientists have found in garments – such as tributyl phosphate, dimethyl fumarate, and disperse dyes – can be acutely toxic or hazardous, causing skin reactions or asthma. Others have been proven, outside of their use on clothing, to have links to cancer, reproductive toxicity, allergies, and skin sensitization.

Every expert interviewed for this article noted that improving communication skills could have a tremendous impact on both the person with the disease and the caregivers and that there were free resources available to help.

While the viral nature of the “phage” was only widely accepted in the 1940s, attempts to use the phenomenon in treating infections started early. After raising hopes in the interwar years, by 1945 phage therapy had been abandoned almost entirely in the West, until the recent revival of interest in response to the crisis of antibiotic resistance.

Thirty-two years ago, the departure of American troops from the archipelago symbolized the end of colonialism. Today, their return seems like the least bad option. By Timothy McLaughlin

QUOTE ...Facing an economic slowdown, soaring youth unemployment and an anemic investment climate, Chinese officials are keen to host Treasury Secretary Janet L. Yellen and Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo to address U.S. technology restrictions on China and other economic matters. As part of this pro-business push, Xi met with Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates on Friday — a meeting that followed visits to Beijing by JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon, Starbucks CEO Laxman Narasimhan and Tesla and Twitter CEO Elon Musk.

But rather than acquiesce to Chinese preferences that top U.S. economic advisers travel first, the White House insisted that Blinken, one of Biden’s closest confidantes, be the first to Beijing, according to people familiar with the negotiations.

As a result, Chinese officials view the Blinken visit as a necessary step to unlock follow-on meetings with more immediately desired officials who focus on economic matters, analysts said.

“The most that can be hoped for is the Blinken visit sets the stage for later visits by Secretaries Yellen and Raimondo,” said David Dollar, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution. “China’s concerned about various trade and technology restrictions but [Blinken’s team] are not the right people to negotiate on those issues.” UNQUOTE

Testing the beta of memmy, using iOS on my iPhone, and unable to log into lemmy.world. The app reports an error: 'email_not_verified'.

Could there be an issue with the database and my account? The app's dev assures me that he is able to log into lemmy.world with the app, so the server is not blocking memmy. Is there an issue with my email not having been verified? But then, how was I able to create my account on lemmy.world without verifying my email?

Using on iPhone with iOS 15.7.6 with TestFlight. Prompted to create an account or log in to existing account. Chose the latter. Keyed in my server (https://lemmy.world), next keyed in my u/n, and then my password. Reported error: 'email_not_verified'. Unable to log in.

UPDATE: Thanks to @[email protected] (memmy dev) and @ruud (lemmy.world admin), now able to sign in. Ruud reported that curiously my email had not been verified when I signed up and created an account on lemmy.world.

TLDR; Copy the article URL, then visit archive.ph and paste the URL into the 'I want to archive' field and wait for the magic to happen.
