.... the legality. Ivan Boesky and Michael Milken bet their money, but they always seemed to win, even when others would lose. It turns out that they had many “sure things,” only with one problem: they were all illegal. Boesky and Milken characterize the rest of the financial world at the time, and Wall Street is the movie that exemplifies the such attitudes of the 1980’s from Oliver Stones accurate point of view.

They would befriend executives in “blue chip” companies or merger and acquisition lawyers , hoping they would be given information regarding takeovers and mergers of companies before the common public. When Boesky and M ....

.... the Stock Market works. The government kept the unemployed in some form of work so they were able to earn money and be able to contribute to the economy. That is why the economy did not fall to pieces, although the main reason for the United States getting out of the depression was WWII. The economy was doing great prior to the stock market crash. People were investing and the country was on the rise. But with such problems as bad investments, bad income distribution, bad banking, bad foreign trade, and over-expansion of credit the stock market crashed and the U.S. was heading to a depression. One of the first Acts to affect the economy was the Emergency Banking Relief ....

.... the chapel of the Palazzo Vecchio. It was the Florentine town hall. The Adoration of the Magi was my first large painting though but was unfinished and was ordered in 1481 for a monastery that I just can not remember. I painted another picture also called the Benois Madonna and a few others but my mind is old and I have lost most my memory. In a year around 1482, I began to give service to the Duke of Milan.

Max was searching for this universal constant, but was unsure of what he was actually looking for. On a daily basis, Max used his supercomputer, Euclid, (which spanned his entire Chinatown apartment) to make attempts at computing this value. Some days he would make accurate predictions, others he might not h ....

This essay looks at the situation that developed in Czechoslovakia during the memorable Spring of 1968, and focuses on the factors that finally pushed USSR towards invading one of its allies.
