Description: Pathé Records was an international record company and label and producer of phonographs, based in France, and active from the 1890s through the 1930s.

Description: WorldCom was not just the biggest accounting scandal in the history of the United States, but it was also one of the biggest bankruptcies. Considered a telecommunications giant, the revelation that it had cooked its books came on the heels of the Enron and Tyco frauds, which had rocked the financial markets. However, the scale of the WorldCom fraud put even them in the shade. This spate of corporate crime led to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act in July 2002, which strengthened disclosure requirements and the penalties for fraudulent accounting. However, WorldCom left a stain on the reputation of accounting firms, investment banks and credit rating agencies that has never quite been removed.

Description: Burma-Shave was an American brand of brushless shaving cream, famous for its advertising gimmick of posting humorous rhyming poems on small sequential highway roadside signs. Burma-Shave was introduced in 1925 by the Burma-Vita company in Minneapolis owned by Clinton Odell. The company's original product was a liniment made of ingredients described as having come "from the Malay Peninsula and Burma" (hence its name). Sales were sparse, and the company sought to expand sales by introducing a product with wider appeal. The result was the Burma-Shave brand of brushless shaving cream and its supporting advertising program. Sales took off. At its peak, Burma-Shave was the second-highest-selling brushless shaving cream in the United States.
