the fighting has become a major concern for president thein sein's government, which is striving to bring stability to myanmar. the conflict is centered in the west of the country, where rohingya muslims are the minority. the government has declared a state of emergency, saying the violence has been steadily intensifying since the 21st of this month with the death toll rising to 112 and threatening to go even higher. in one incident, police lost control over a crowd and opened fire, leading to some casualties. the roots of the clash go back to may this year when a buddhist woman was allegedly raped by a muslim group. discrimination against rohingya muslims in the area is strong and appears to be a major factor behind the continuing violence. the conflict is a major obstacle to the country's efforts towards democratization and national reconciliation. >>> the decades mindanao island in the southern philippines has been a hotbed of conflict between muslim separatists and the central government. there are signs of a possible resolution after the two sides signed an agreement earlier this mon

he first measured the amount of water flowing annually in the river seine in france. then he calculated rainfall for the upstream drainage basin surrounding the river. perrault found to his surprise that rainfall was six times as large as the flow of the river. so early speculation about rivers actually addressed the wrong question. the problem was not... where does river water come from? but...where does all the excess rainfall go? only about 1/4 of earth's annual precipitation flows in rivers. the rest seeps underground to become ground water or is stored as glacial ice or soil moisture or is returned to the atmosphere by evaporation and growing plants. rivers are among the most common land forms on earth. although they appear to vary a great deal in their behavior and characteristics, careful study has shown that all rivers have a great deal in common. the impact of rivers on the landscape is often spectacular. they can gouge out deep canyons, create gentle valleys with verdant meadows, or build enormous deltas. in creating these diverse landscapes, all rivers func
