		The one problem I had with this unit was that the air source covered more than one bubble wand at a time, which caused thirty percent of all the bubbles generated to be multiples with as many as ten bubbles stuck together.
		It produces enormous quantities of brightly colored bubbles (when used with Gazillion bubble solution), is the easiest and cleanest machine to use and has a unique holder for a bottle of bubble solution that automatically keeps the solution reservoir filled.
		The bubbles are larger than the last two machines I tried and the bubble solution packaged with the machine produces durable, long-lasting bubbles that have as much color in them as the top-priced Pustifix solution.

		It was argued that the acts of parliament intended rotation to be decided by lottery, not by vote, but that cliques were exploiting the ambiguity of the term ‘ballot’ to reinforce their control of railway boards. Where the immediate reelection of directors was permitted, this may have reinforced the above trends.
		All the railway acts from this period stipulated that auditors must not be interested in the concern except as a shareholder.
		Although the canal and railway acts were the product of a legal and parliamentary process that had already become routine by the end of the eighteenth century, and although the forms which these acts of incorporation took were similar in layout and presentation, the contents often diverged greatly from one another.

	- Richard Faverty
		Faverty soon became Professor Bubbles, one of only four bubbleologists in the world, the first man to encase a human in a bubble, to blow bubbles through the straps of lawn chairs, he says.
		He backed into the bubble business in 1980, after a decade as a free-lance photographer, shooting for such respectable rags as Time and Newsweek, and for those checkout-line distractors, the National Enquirer and the Star, where he says he developed a specialty as the "freak" photographer, eschewing the mainstay Elvis, JFK or UFO assignments.
		Once in the Orient, he ventured to a prebroadcast banquet to meet the rest of the show's guests: the tallest woman in the world, the oldest woman with tattoos in the world, the man with the longest mustache, the woman with the longest nails, the woman with the strongest head of hair.

		The bubble burst in May 1720 when a run on the Banque Royale forced the government to acknowledge that the amount of metallic currency in the country was not quite equal to half the total amount of paper currency in circulation.
		Worried about the competition from the bubble companies and in an attempt to sustain their share price, the South Sea Company convinced the government to pass the Bubble Act in June 1720.
		The act prevented the establishment of new companies without government permission, and allowed existing companies only to carry out those activities that were prescribed by their charters.

	The Role of a Central Bank in a Bubble Economy - Part IV
		Because bubbles in a domestic economy follow rapid internal dynamic processes, it may be difficult to harmonize the slow pace of international diplomacy on economic policy with the rapid developments in a bubble economy.
		The authority of a central bank to act to control a share price or land price bubble is likely to be quite uncertain, because the bubbles may not affect the broader economic indicators until the bubble process is already well advanced.
		The tools available to the central bank to act against bubbles in the economy are likely to have effects on economic activity outside the bubble economy, and accordingly a central bank is likely to use these tools with caution even if a bubble develops in a particular sector.

	The Bubble (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Thus the core phenomenon of the speculative bubble is one in which euphoric levels of valuation are validated by the market, and intelligence is measured only by profits, not reasoning and judgment.
		The speculative bubble as a phenomenon of free markets would not continue to resurface time and again were it not for the fact that the financial memory of a given society is very short term.
		In every bubble the excess capital, optimism, hope and greed is blown off in a speculative frenzy, only to return again after years of economic contraction or tight credit.

		While certain types of bubbles seem to be inconsistent with rational behavior, there is a class of bubbles called rational bubbles.
		In this case, the rate of return on the security with the bubble component would be identical to the rate of return on the security without a bubble.
		Moreover, critics of the bubble theory point out that technical analysis, which is the practice of trying to identify systematic patterns in security price movements, should be useful in choosing securities if bubbles are present.

	Nobel Prize in Physics 1960 - Presentation Speech
		Even if the principle of Glaser's bubble chamber can be considered simple, it represents an exceedingly difficult development program requiring several years of work which lie behind the completed invention which will now be awarded this prize.
		The large bubble chamber has also an extremely complicated automatic read-off and calculation apparatus which sends information from the tracks in the bubble chamber into a larger mathematical-computer, which, in turn, after a moment's thought, forwards from the world of atoms the news which the nuclear researcher so eagerly awaits.
		By using Glaser's bubble chamber the modern nuclear researcher has at his disposal just the scientific instrument which is required in order to exploit the gigantic atomic accelerators which in recent years have been constructed in atomic research centers in the U.S.A., West Europe, and Russia.

		Congress passed this Act following the great stock-market crash of 1929 in a bid to regulate a market which had been replete with unsupervised securities transactions and often unscrupulous securities promoters and which later came to be known as the “Truth in Securities” Act.

		It warned that the bubble could harm the economy if it were to burst suddenly, reducing the value of collateral assets and bringing on a recession.
		If one grants that a speculative bubble existed at the beginning of 1928, when the Fed began to tighten, then stocks must have still been overvalued in the aftermath of the crash.
		On the other hand, if one interprets the Great Crash as a bursting bubble, so that shares were more or less properly valued in the aftermath, then it follows that they were probably also not far from their fundamental values at the start of 1928, when the Fed began to tighten.
