	ipedia.com: Deforestation Article (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-04)
		Deforestation has been practiced by humans for thousands of years chiefly as a result of clearing land for commercial and industrial development, intensive collection of firewood, clearing of land for growing crops and to develop pasture for grazing animals.
		Clearing of forests for the development of pasture for cattle has also resulted in deforestation as has the encroachment upon forests due to increasing human populations.
		While the earliest example of deforestation is unclear, (there is some controversy over the origin of the Sahara Desert for example) see history of Easter Island for clear evidence of the ecological impact of human activity.

		You've arrived on an island half the size of Spain with a population almost twice that of California, whose people have managed to colonize two-fifths of the globe and win just about every war they've gotten into.
		The rolling farms of the south and the rugged peaks of the north are only hours apart by train, and even on a two-week trip, you'll come across peoples as diverse as London clubbers, Welsh students, and Scottish crofters.
		But even if the disparate regions of Britain are perpetually at odds, they all embrace the fruits of the cultures they've come across in their globetrotting days: Brits eat kebab and curry as often as they do scones and lemon curd, and watch American TV shows as much as the BBC.

		Defence critics say the voyage of Halifax-based HMCS Glace Bay and HMCS Shawinigan is a missed opportunity to demonstrate sovereignty and reinforce Canada's claim to Hans Island, a barren, oval-shaped rock that is often dwarfed by neighboring icebergs off northwestern Greenland.
		Asserting Canadian sovereignty over the 1.3 kilometre island "is not the primary goal of the deployment,'' she said in an interview.
		With the thawing of northern seas and the potential for undersea resources, such as oil and natural gas, Canada's northern boundary with Greenland is taking on new importance.

		Born in 1938, Joan Tower is a senior figure in American music, and was, in 1991, the first woman to win the Grawemeyer Award.
		But her music is hardly ever heard on this side of the Atlantic, though this collection of chamber works suggests we are missing out on a considerable musical voice, one who has forged a distinctive style from a variety of contemporary models including serialism and Messiaen.
		No Longer Very Clear, the four piano pieces, vividly played on the disc by Ursula Oppens, take their individual titles from lines by John Ashbery; they are intense, study-like, and shaped with absolute precision.
