4.3.2 Texas House of Representatives They had benefited from Guinea's connections with neighbouring Iberians and north African Muslim states Due to these connections mathematicians and experts in naval technology appeared in Portugal Portuguese and foreign experts made several breakthroughs in the fields of mathematics cartography and naval technology, The Comanche agreed to a peace treaty in 1785 the Comanche were willing to fight the enemies of their new friends and soon attacked the Karankawa Over the next several years the Comanche killed many of the Karankawa in the area and drove the others into Mexico. . . Eastern FrontManhattan Project Sister cities Obesity causes several chronic diseases including heart disease and diabetes the three leading causes of death in Texas - heart disease stroke and cancer - are all linked to obesity. Additionally obesity can cause type 2 diabetes arteriosclerosis and hypertension in 2010 Texas saw 1,261,654 cases of heart disease and is predicted to see 5,688,482 cases in 2030 in 2010 Texas saw 1,962,059 cases of diabetes and is predicted to see 2,851,697 cases in 2030 in 2010 Texas saw 4,300,252 cases of hypertension and is predicted to see 5,689,509 cases in 2030 in 2010 Texas saw 328,379 cases of obesity-related cancer and is predicted to see 810,806 cases in 2030. . Corporate involvement in culture Most major belligerents attempted to solve the problems of complexity and security involved in using large codebooks for cryptography by designing ciphering machines the most well known being the German Enigma machine. Development of SIGINT (signals intelligence) and cryptanalysis enabled the countering process of decryption Notable examples were the Allied decryption of Japanese naval codes and British Ultra a pioneering method for decoding Enigma benefiting from information given to the United Kingdom by the Polish Cipher Bureau which had been decoding early versions of Enigma before the war. Another aspect of military intelligence was the use of deception which the Allies used to great effect such as in operations Mincemeat and Bodyguard, By the start of July 1944 Commonwealth forces in Southeast Asia had repelled the Japanese sieges in Assam pushing the Japanese back to the Chindwin River while the Chinese captured Myitkyina in September 1944 Chinese forces captured Mount Song and reopened the Burma Road in China the Japanese had more successes having finally captured Changsha in mid-June and the city of Hengyang by early August. Soon after they invaded the province of Guangxi winning major engagements against Chinese forces at Guilin and Liuzhou by the end of November and successfully linking up their forces in China and Indochina by mid-December. Poverty Memorial Day storms in 2015 brought flash flooding to the city as some areas received 11 inches or more of rain overnight exacerbated by already full bayous at least three people died and more than 1,000 cars were stranded on highways and overpasses.

The sedimentary layers underneath Houston ultimately extend down some 60,000 feet (18,000 m) with the oldest beds deposited during the Cretaceous. Between 30,000 feet (9,100 m) and 40,000 feet (12,000 m) below the surface is a layer of salt the primary source of salt domes which dot the metropolitan area. Since salt is more buoyant than other sediments it rises to the surface creating domes and anticlines and causing subsidence due to its removal from its original strata. These structures manage to capture oil and gas as it percolates through the subsurface; Pierce Junction is a notable example of a heavily drilled salt dome oil field in Houston. . New land use policies drafted during the administration of Governor John Ireland enabled individuals to accumulate land leading to the formation of large cattle ranches Many ranchers ran barbed wire around public lands to protect their access to water and free grazing This caused several range wars. Governor Lawrence Sullivan Ross guided the Texas Legislature to reform the land use policies.
