What type of people become homeless?
They lose their jobs. They become "downsized". Or they got a house (condo, apartment) that cost more money than they could afford. They might have invested in a house, thinking that the value of a house would Always go up, and it didn't. Most people probably become homeless because the economy turns bad and they suffer the consequences. They do the best they can, try and live within their means, and they suffer in a bad economic climate.
Homeless people can be kicked out of their apartment or house by not having the money to pay the bills; were kicked out due to a divorce, argument or other such conflict; or actually want to not have a home (for example, George Orwell spent a year dirt-poor on purpose).

What was the nickname of the Vietnam war?
Because President Truman, nor anyone else knew what to call a war in which ALL WEAPONS could "not be used" to win it, such as the existing atomic bomb; for the lack of a better word, Truman chose Police Action. The words "LIMITED WAR" were also used; which was more correct...as the Korean War was America's first limited war (limited to the use of NON-Nuclear Weapons). A police action is actually what is occurring in Iraq; an action against insurgents and terrorists to restore law, order and stability to the nation of Iraq. But again, President Truman and all others at the time, never experienced atomic warfare, limited war, nor even communists. All they knew was "Declared" and "Total Wars", such as World War's One and Two. Both of which President Truman experienced; once as a Captain of artillery in WW1, and once as Vice President of the US under President F. D. Roosevelt.

The Northern European Plain is an extensive lowland area. It stretches for over 1,000 miles from the western border of Russia and the Republics to the Ural Mountains. One of the world's most fertile soils - chernozem, or black earth- is abundant on this plain. It sometimes occurs in layers three feet deep or more. Because of the high quality of its soil, many of the region's agricultural areas are located on this plain.

What problems did Burke and Wills encounter?
The exploration of Burke and Wills was fraught with problems.
Burke and Wills led Australia's best-equipped and most expensive exploration expedition. With such preparation behind them, they should not have died - but Burke was impatient, and it was this very human quality that essentially resulted in their premature deaths.
Robert O'Hara Burke, with William Wills later appointed second-in-command, led the expedition to try to cross Australia from south to north and back again. The exploration party was very well equipped, and subsequently very large. Because of its size, the exploration party was split at Menindee so that Burke could push ahead to the Gulf of Carpentaria with a smaller party. Splitting the part was a fatal mistake. The smaller group went on ahead to establish the depot at Cooper Creek which would serve to offer the necessary provisions for when the men returned from the Gulf. After several unsuccessful forays into the northern dry country from Cooper Creek, Burke decided to push on ahead to the Gulf in December 1860, regardless of the risks - and the intense summer heat. He took with him Wills, Charles Gray and John King.
The expedition to the Gulf took longer than Burke anticipated: upon his return to Cooper Creek, he found that the relief party had left just seven hours earlier, less than the amount of time it had taken to bury Gray, who had died on the return journey. Gray died from starvation, and from being abused and badly beaten by Burke when he was found stealing food.
Through poor judgement, lack of observation and a series of miscommunications, Burke and Wills never met up with the relief party. They perished on the banks of Cooper Creek. Burke died on or around 30 June 1861. King alone survived to lead the rescue party to the remains of Burke and Wills, and the failure of one of the most elaborately planned expeditions in Australia's history.
The exact cause of Burke and Wills's death was not starvation or malnutrition, but inadvertent poisoning. The men knew that the Aborigines gathered nardoo which they had used to sustain Burke and Wills, until they were frightened off by Burke's defensiveness against the Aborigines. So, whilst awaiting the rescue that never came, Burke and Wills made their way to where they knew Aborigines collected Nardoo. Nardoo was an important bush food for Aborigines, who knew how to prepare its seedpods (or, strictly speaking, sporocaps) to make flour. The sporocarps contain poisons that must first be removed for them to be eaten safely. Studies of the explorers' journals indicate that they probably died of nardoo poisoning, after failing to follow precautions from the Aborigines of how to prepare it safely.
