Amazon Drone Delivery Service to Texas and California

Amazon began using drones to deliver small packages to homes in College Station, Texas, and Lockeford, California, last month, according to a report from Ars Technica last week. Amazon hopes to expand Prime Air to more locations in the future. Amazon says the Prime Air drones can safely fly packages weighing up to 5 pounds. The flying bots arrive at a customer’s backyard, descend and hover at a safe height, then lower the package. Customers in the two towns can expect more deliveries from Amazon, which is looking to have deliveries take less than 60 minutes in the future.

The Loser List

I found my book, The Loser List to be an OK book.. I liked the beginning of the book the most.  It kept my interest by including pictures to help tell the story. It was about a boy who was a geek who actually had a wide range of interests.  I have a range of interests myself, therefore that is what kept me interested in the story.  This book had similarities to The Diary of a Wimpy Kid series, and I have enjoyed reading them as well.  I would recommend others to read this book.

tax revenue

Tax revenue is the income that is gained by governments through taxation. Taxation is the primary source of income for a state. Revenue may be extracted from sources such as individuals, public enterprises, trade, royalties on natural resources and/or foreign aid. An inefficient collection of taxes is greater in countries characterized by poverty, a large agricultural sector and large amounts of foreign aid.
Just as there are different types of tax, the form in which tax revenue is collected also differs furthermore, the agency that collects the tax may not be part of central government, but may be a third party licensed to collect tax which they themselves will use. For example, in the uk the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency  collects vehicle excise duty, which is then passed onto HM Treasury.
Tax revenues on purchases come in two forms tax itself is a percentage of the price added to the purchase are a fixed amount added to the purchase price. In order to calculate the total tax raised from these sales, we must work out the effective tax rate multiplied by the quantity supplied.
