the headlines, Nick said of Tony, “He was a big, bulky man, running a little too fat, and always anxious to please. I’d see if I could fob him off with another useless chore. He was no nearer finding my account than he was a week ago, and he’d been ferreting around the office for a month now. It was pathetic.” Ash Lewis was the formidable internal auditor from Barings Bank in London who never did get to do the audit of the Singapore operation.

Rogue Trader How many times can you go double or nothing before you wind up a billion pounds in debt? In “Rogue Trader”, a film based on the life on Nick Leeson, we get a glimpse into this real world dilemma. The drama begins with Leeson’s promotion to general manager of Barings Futures Singapore.

"climactic story in [his short story collection] In Our Time and the culminating episode in the Nick Adams adventures that he included in the book." That comment ought to spark the curiosity of readers of this story, for, on the surface, very little happens in the story. Seemingly, it goes nowhere. If, however, one has read Thoreau 's Walden, it is relatively easy to see that Hemingway is portraying Nick Adams ' attempt to achieve a bonding with nature that Thoreau, in 1845, was seeking when he decided

Nick Fury was the immediate supervisor that delegated tasks to the Agents within S.H.I.E.L.D. Furthermore, Nick Fury advocated that S.H.I.E.L.D takes the world for what it is, not as they would like for it to be.

Fleetwood Mac’s Rumours (1977) The birth of the legendary British rock band, Fleetwood Mac, goes as far back to 1967 when their musical origins first sprouted. The idea behind the band’s name was pretty simple; “Fleetwood Mac” is the conjunction of two singers’ names, Mick Fleetwood and John McVie. Soon after the band’s establishment their popularity gradually grew in Britain. Fleetwood Mac’s quick popularity made their future success foreseeable. Without a surprise, their first debut album made

Backstory/Origins: From birth, Red grew up as a lab experiment for an anonymous/private organization.
