Learning about the law and order system helped me understand why the Vicario brothers had were so motivated to kill Santiago‚ even though there were multiple obstacles hindering their objective. In the Colombian law and order system of this time‚ there were few repercussions for most crimes‚ even capital offences. For example‚ the Vicario brothers faced only a few years in jail‚ and later the brothers had the opportunity to do what they wanted to: Pedro “reenlisted in the armed force” and Pablo became

Thomas Bulger Lehman Brothers 1. From an ethics perspective they weren’t successful at all. They were always cutting corners. All they cared about was the dollars and cents. They would reward employees for taking risks and ignored if you tried question their decisions or ethics. If the bank knew what was going on they wouldn’t have let that happen.

The performances are perhaps the most stressful part of both band and choir because you
