Irrigation Systems Human Community
719 words
Early humans were called nomads (World
Civilizations volume 1), they once roamed the

civilizations developed. The first city or
villages was very simple, small. Most of these
cultures started in river valleys. The nomads quit

Oil And Gas Tax Cuts

... of GDP, oil usage has declined 50 % in the
past 20 years in the U. S. Energy is not as large
a share of the household pocketbook as it used to
be either. The rise in prices, however, has
increased headline inflation. Core inflation is
still a modest 2. 6 % in the U. S. and a mere 1. 3
% in Canada. No worry there. If anything, rising
heating bills will slow the growth of
discretionary income and contribute to the
slowdown in economic activity. This does reduce

Domus Aurea Golden House Of Nero
914 words
In AD 64, Nero set fire to the city of Rome. The
exact reasons he did it are not fully known. It is
thought that he partly did for poetic or artistic
purposes, or for the purpose of clearing away a
city that had currently dissatisfied him. In its
place however he did rebuild a better Rome, for
the most part that is. A large portion, and
arguably too large of a portion, was expropriated
for the use of his own residence to be called the
Domus Aurea. This is translated: The Golden House,

seek an answer to "Why" (a teleological quest in
most cases) and still different to contemplate the
"What for." For instance: people often do
something because it gives them pleasure or
