to the immigration of landless farmers, in particular from eastern savanna regions, to enter primary forest areas through logging roads. Incoming farmers cause extensive land degradation in converting the natural forest into farmlands. Further, it has been suggested that increases in returns can lead to substantial increase in farm sizes and shortening of the fallow period, which in turn eventually leads to large-scale and severe natural forest area destruction. The United Nations Environment Programme has identified slash and burn agriculture which produces reduced fall periods, as the most pressing issue related to the deforestation of the DRC.

with performance and stability that often resulted in application crashes, this new framework was created as a successor and laid the foundation of all future "Multi Theft Auto" software.

Moshoeshoe I and his people took occupation of this mountain in July 1824. He named it Thaba Bosiu (loosely translated – Mountain at Night) because he and his people arrived at night.

Moshoeshoe I was able to offer cattle and protection to those fleeing the ravages of Mfecane/Difaqane Wars.

Tungsten and molybdenum form carbides if there is enough carbon and an absence of stronger carbide forming elements (i.e., titanium & niobium), they form the carbides WC and MoC, respectively. Vanadium, titanium, and niobium are strong carbide forming elements, forming vanadium carbide, titanium carbide, and niobium carbide, respectively. Alloying elements also have an effect on the eutectoid temperature of the steel. Manganese and nickel lower the eutectoid temperature and are known as "austenite stabilizing elements". With enough of these elements the austenitic structure may be obtained at room temperature. Carbide-forming elements raise the eutectoid temperature; these elements are known |

If the patient uses the supine position, the physician will ask the patient to slide down to the end of the examination table until their buttocks are positioned just beyond the end. The patient then places their feet in the stirrups.

Then, as the patient relaxes, the physician slips a lubricated finger into the rectum through the anus and palpates the insides for a short time. Due to the |

Richard A. Muller, Gordon J. F.

They proposed that these variations in orbital inclination lead to variations in insolation, as the Earth moves in and out of known dust bands in the solar system.
