Trump Just Made It Easier to Hide Money in Real Estate

2 weeks ago | curbed.com | Andrew Rice

For the past five years, in its slow and grinding way, the federal government labored to bring some sunlight into the shadowy realm of corporate secrecy. A law passed at the end of Donald Trump’s first term, with the support of his Treasury Department and both parties in Congress, imposing new disclosure requirements on the shell companies that are often used to protect financial transactions, like property sales, behind a shield of anonymity.

LEWISTON — As the spring thaw melts the snow, a winter’s worth of litter is uncovered. In Lewiston in recent years, that litter has included discarded syringes, which can routinely be found in public parks, playgrounds, in trash cans or lying in the street. Two weeks ago, a Public Works crew picked up 3,600 pounds of litter downtown in a single day, including more than 100 needles.

In 2020, at the height of the COVID pandemic, the global advertising conglomerate WPP started to slash almost one-third of its New York office space. Different WPP agencies maintained separate Manhattan headquarters: Ogilvy was on 11th Avenue, Grey on lower Fifth, VML in Columbus Circle. But those buildings were all empty, and there was no telling when or if the thousands of employees who had once worked in them would return.
Canada wins Los Angeles Sail Grand Prix as favored rivals falter

LOS ANGELES - "Yes we CAN!" And yes they did. The Canadians' victory at the Los Angeles Sail Grand Prix was good news not only for Giles Scott's quietly efficient team, but for all the underdogs in the 12-boat fleet. Heading into the three-boat final, a winner-takes-all race lasting barely eight minutes, most experts would have picked New Zealand or Australia to take the title in L.A.And yet that would be unfair to Canada, which nearly won on Australia's Sydney Harbour a few weeks earlier.

LOS ANGELES - Saturday proved to be a critical moment for the United States SailGP Team to show its doubters wrong. Competing in front of a home crowd on the opening day of racing at the Rolex Los Angeles Sail Grand Prix, Taylor Canfield and his all-American crew needed to banish the ghost of Sydney Harbour last month.
Why the US SailGP team is struggling

The Americans are hurting. The sight of the team's F50 capsized on Sydney Harbour, the crew in the hull, waiting to be rescued, summed up a miserable low point in their SailGP season. A damaged wing meant the weekend had ended for them before it had properly begun. No races, no points, no hope.

As SailGP heads to Los Angeles this weekend for the fourth grand prix of the season, The Athletic takes a look at all the teams competing in Season 5 of a competition often referred to as 'Formula 1 on the water'.

Three events into Season 5 of the SailGP Championship and there have been three different winners. This campaign feels the most open yet and, with another 11 race weekends remaining, culminating in the season finale in Abu Dhabi this November, plenty could change.

From towering catamarans racing at 60mph to $12.8m in prize money. Is this F1 on the water?

1 month ago | nytimes.com | Andrew Rice

Humans have sailed the oceans for centuries. But, as a spectator sport, sailing has barely made a dent in the public consciousness, outside of the Olympics at least. There's no denying that it can often be difficult to make sense of what's going on way out there on the water, for a start. But the SailGP Championship has set out to prove watching sailboat racing can be thrilling, entertaining and even get you jumping off the sofa and yelling at your TV.
