  • Thank you, First I want to thank my parents for letting me watch the Simpsons at a young age when the show was actually considered vulgar. Second, I would like to thank Bleeding Gums Murphy, for without his music, mentorship and guidance, none of us would truly be here today. It was a gruely 17 seconds to enter in the prompt and I am proud to share this prize with my [email protected] Fashion cohort members. Without competitions like these, we may never push AI generated images to the boundaries of its limits and beyond! Many thanks to the academy.



  • The first write-off came on Mr. Trump’s tax return for 2008. With sales lagging far behind projections, he claimed that his investment in the condo-hotel tower met the tax code definition of “worthless,” because his debt on the project meant he would never see a profit. That move resulted in Mr. Trump reporting losses as high as $651 million for the year, The Times and ProPublica found. There is no indication the I.R.S. challenged that initial claim, though that lack of scrutiny surprised tax experts consulted for this article. But in 2010, Mr. Trump and his tax advisers sought to extract further benefits from the Chicago project, executing a maneuver that would draw years of inquiry from the I.R.S. First, he shifted the company that owned the tower into a new partnership. Because he controlled both companies, it was like moving coins from one pocket to another. Then he used the shift as justification to declare $168 million in additional losses over the next decade.
