LAS VEGAS, NV, UNITED STATES, March 11, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — The iconic Las Vegas Strip was alive, as more than 26,000 registered participants from around the world converged in Las Vegas, Nevada to experience the World’s Largest Running Party at the 18th anniversary of the CELSIUS Rock ‘n’ Roll^® Running Series Las Vegas. The half marathon and 10K races once again took over the iconic Las Vegas Strip on Sunday night with runners and walkers passing iconic sights including the ‘Welcome to Las Vegas’ sign, Downtown Las Vegas, all before finishing at an electric finish line unlike any other in the world ending mid-Strip at The Fountains of Bellagio, steps away from Resorts World Las Vegas’ 100,000 sq ft LED screen creating the World’s Largest Selfie opportunity for participants.

A field of elite athletes toed the start line in the half marathon. It was Travis Feeny (27-years-old from Cedar City, Utah) who took the overall win in the men’s half marathon with a time of 1:05:09 besting the field. The women’s elite title went to Jessa Hanson (27-years-old of Flagstaff, Ariz.) with a time of 1:14:47.

In the wheelchair division, 16-yeard-old Mary MacDonald (Taunton, Mass.) captured victory in half marathon finishing in an incredible time of 1:15:11, over 16 minutes ahead of her nearest competitor

“I think the best part was that there was a pack up front. We had about seven guys together for most of the race and some started to fall off near the very end.” said Feeny, at the finish line. “The weather was amazing and I felt great the whole time. I was able to let it go the last half mile, so I am really proud of that.”

“I kind of came out here today wanting to have fun, so to get the win at the end of the day, I am pretty happy with it.” said Hanson after her win on the Vegas Strip. “I’m from Flagstaff, so it wasn’t a far drive, but I heard there was a party on Vegas happening this weekend and I wanted to be a part of it. It’s probably one of the most fun races you can do. I think it is truly a party, and it is an honor to be able to run in such a unique place as this. Having this whole street shut down, I felt like a celebrity, so it was really fun.”

Participants hailing from all 50 States and over 60 countries, regions, and territories headed down Las Vegas Boulevard at night on Sunday night with thousands watching from alongside the iconic stretch of road.

Sam Juson (27-years-old from Hereford, United Kingdom), who only registered on Saturday evening while visiting Vegas on a vacation, took the overall win in the 10K with a time of 31:58. Local Henderson runner Rachael Robnett (40-years-old) was the first woman to cross the finish for the 10K on Snday night with a time of 37:40.

“It was fantastic, unlike any other thing had before. Running on the strip is a once in a lifetime experience everyone should do, so really enjoyed it.” said Juson after finishing just outside the Bellagio’s famous fountains. “To be far, I literally signed up yesterday. Me and my girlfriend are doing a road trip; started in LA and did a bit of a Grand Canyon tour. We were staying in Resorts World yesterday and I’m into running, so I said, ‘why not.’ I registered ten minutes before they closed the Expo. It couldn’t have gone better. It’s incredible, the support from the side of the road, it’s truly an amazing experience.”

“It was amazing! I love this race. It was my third time running this race and I have gotten a PR every time I’ve run it,” said Robnett following her victory. “I’m a professor at UNLV, so it was really special to get the hometown win this time. I love the challenge of running, I love the venue, and I love the energy. Everyone should come out to this race. It’s the best! The best in the west!”

The energy went into overdrive on Saturday, Feb. 21 with the 5K at the Fremont Street Experience location in Downtown Las Vegas. It was Pedro Rios (29-year-old from Las Vegas, Nevada) who took top honors in the men’s race on Freemont Street with a blazing time of 16:08. Lauren Nesselroad (37-year-old from Pooler, Ga.) took the overall win in the women’s race with a time of 19:37. The 5K in downtown Las Vegas was followed by the festival at Downtown Las Vegas Event Center, known as the Saturday Night Runners Party featuring a lineup high energy entertainment that included DJ Cable, DJ Machi and DJ Mal-Ski, as well as interactive games, we’re bringing all the action of The Strip to our participants on Saturday night.

Just before runners set out on their half marathon and 10K journeys, nearly 300 participants joined the “CELSIUS Yoga on The Strip,” presented by Rock ‘n’ Roll Las Vegas. Participants and spectators alike were invited to take part in this one‑of‑a‑kind wellness experience held directly on the closed roads of the iconic Las Vegas Strip.

Pet industry insurance specialists will offer policy reviews and coverage guidance for grooming professionals at GROOM’D 2026.

COSTA MESA, CA, UNITED STATES, March 11, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Pet Business Insurance will participate in GROOM’D 2026, one of the pet grooming industry’s largest professional gatherings, taking place March 13-15 at the Georgia International Convention Center in College Park, Georgia. The company will meet with pet care professionals at Booth 143 to discuss risk management strategies and specialized insurance solutions designed for businesses that work with animals.

GROOM’D, presented by the World Pet Association, brings together groomers, trainers, boarding operators, and other pet industry professionals from across the country for education, competitions, networking and product discovery. Pet Business Insurance representatives will be available throughout the three-day event to help attendees better understand coverage options that address the unique risks associated with operating pet care businesses.

At the booth, visitors can receive complimentary policy reviews, learn about coverage types such as animal bailee liability and professional liability, and obtain customized insurance quotes based on their specific operations.

“Pet care professionals face unique risks that many standard business policies do not fully address,” said Zach Davis, co-owner of Pet Business Insurance. “Events like GROOM’D provide an opportunity to meet the people who drive this industry forward and help them understand how specialized coverage can protect the businesses they’ve worked hard to build.”

The U.S. pet industry continues to grow rapidly, with millions of households relying on professional services such as grooming, boarding, and training. As the industry expands, business owners must navigate increasing liability exposures, from injuries involving animals to property damage and professional service claims.

“Many pet professionals are surprised to learn where gaps can exist in their current policies,” Davis said. “Our goal is to provide clear, practical guidance so business owners leave with a better understanding of how to protect their livelihood.”

Pet Business Insurance works with a broad range of pet care businesses, including professional and mobile groomers, boarding facilities, dog daycare operators, trainers, pet retailers, veterinarians, dog walkers, pet sitters, and pet product manufacturers.

Industry professionals attending GROOM’D 2026 are encouraged to visit Booth 143 to speak with the Pet Business Insurance team. Those unable to attend the event can request a consultation or quote online.

International entrepreneurs with U.S. LLCs must navigate IRS tax season deadlines, Form 5472 reporting rules, and key compliance requirements.

MIAMI, FL, UNITED STATES, March 11, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — As the U.S. tax season approaches, international entrepreneurs who own American companies are preparing to meet the annual reporting requirements established by the Internal Revenue Service. According to business services firm MyUSAService, a growing number of non-resident founders operating U.S. entities must navigate federal filing obligations even when they do not live in the United States or generate taxable income within the country.

The rise of digital entrepreneurship has led to a significant increase in foreign owned U.S. companies, particularly Limited Liability Companies. Many entrepreneurs operate online businesses from Europe, Asia, and Latin America while maintaining U.S. entities for commercial, operational, or financial purposes.

Tax professionals emphasize that understanding IRS reporting obligations is essential for maintaining compliance and avoiding costly penalties.

Key IRS Filing Deadlines for U.S. Businesses
The U.S. tax season includes several important filing deadlines for companies operating under different structures.

March 15 is generally the filing deadline for Partnerships and S Corporations.
April 15 is commonly the deadline for C Corporations and individual tax returns.
Foreign owned single member LLCs that are required to file Form 5472 together with a pro forma Form 1120 typically follow the April filing deadline as well.

Businesses that require additional time may request an extension with the IRS. While extensions allow more time to file the return, they do not extend the deadline for paying taxes if a liability exists.

Failure to comply with these deadlines may result in penalties or administrative complications with the IRS.

Increase in Foreign Owned U.S. Companies
The number of international entrepreneurs establishing companies in the United States has grown significantly as digital business models expand globally. Online commerce, consulting services, software development, and remote service businesses are among the most common sectors where foreign founders operate U.S. entities.

Many international entrepreneurs choose U.S. business structures because of the credibility of the American legal system and the global recognition associated with U.S. companies.

“Entrepreneurs around the world are increasingly building businesses that operate internationally from day one,” said Emanuel Wijkhuisen, co-founder of MyUSAService. “However, forming a company in the United States means entering a regulatory environment that includes specific reporting requirements.”

Understanding Form 5472 and Reporting Obligations
One of the most frequently misunderstood aspects of the U.S. tax system for international entrepreneurs involves informational filings required for foreign owned entities.

Foreign owned single member LLCs may be required to submit Form 5472 together with Form 1120 to report certain financial transactions and ownership details. These forms provide transparency regarding transactions between the U.S. company and its foreign owner.

Even when the business does not generate taxable income in the United States, informational reporting may still be required.

Failure to submit Form 5472 can result in significant penalties under IRS regulations.

For this reason, tax professionals recommend that foreign owned businesses review their reporting obligations well before the tax filing deadline.

Preparing Financial Records Before the Filing Deadline
Preparation is one of the most important elements of the tax season for businesses with U.S. entities. Companies are generally encouraged to organize their financial records and corporate documentation in advance.

Typical documentation required for tax filings includes annual financial summaries, transaction records, bank activity reports, ownership documentation, and prior year tax filings.

Preparing these records early allows tax advisors to review the information and prepare filings accurately and on time.

Early preparation also reduces the risk of delays caused by missing documents or incomplete financial information.

Cross Border Compliance for International Founders
Entrepreneurs who operate U.S. companies while living abroad often manage businesses that interact with multiple regulatory systems. U.S. tax reporting requirements may intersect with the tax rules of the entrepreneur’s country of residence.

Cross border compliance can therefore involve coordination between different legal and tax frameworks.

Advisors who specialize in international business compliance often assist founders in navigating these complexities and ensuring that reporting obligations are met correctly.

“Global entrepreneurship has made it easier than ever to operate across borders,” Wijkhuisen said. “At the same time, it has become increasingly important for founders to understand how different compliance systems apply to their businesses.”

Professional Guidance and Compliance
Because the U.S. tax system includes a variety of reporting forms and technical requirements, many international entrepreneurs rely on professional advisors who specialize in foreign owned companies.

These professionals assist businesses with preparing tax filings, maintaining compliance with IRS regulations, and monitoring ongoing reporting obligations.

As global entrepreneurship continues to grow, awareness of U.S. tax season requirements is becoming increasingly important for founders operating American companies from abroad.

SANTA ANA, CA, UNITED STATES, March 11, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — California’s enforcement of e-waste disposal laws has intensified, with penalties for violations now reaching as high as $70,000 per day under the California Electronic Waste Recycling Act and related environmental statutes. Businesses and individuals across Orange County who improperly discard covered electronic devices — including televisions, computers, monitors, and mobile phones — risk significant civil and criminal liability. TechWaste Recycling Inc. is urging Santa Ana businesses to take immediate action by using certified electronics recycling services. Full details on compliant ewaste pickup and drop-off options are available at https://electronic-recycling-santa-ana.allgreenrecyclingservices.com/

California’s Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) classifies many discarded electronics as hazardous waste due to the presence of lead, mercury, cadmium, and hexavalent chromium. Under the California Health and Safety Code Section 25189.5, knowingly disposing of hazardous waste at an unauthorized facility can result in fines of up to $25,000 per day, per violation. When federal statutes under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) are triggered — particularly for businesses generating commercial quantities of e-waste — combined penalty exposure can reach or exceed $70,000 per day. State regulators have demonstrated a clear willingness to pursue enforcement actions against both large corporations and small businesses that fail to maintain documented disposal compliance.

For Santa Ana businesses, the stakes are particularly high. Any company that generates, transports, or transfers covered electronic waste without proper manifests, certified vendor partnerships, or DTSC authorization is operating in violation of California law. This includes office equipment upgrades, data center decommissions, and routine hardware refreshes. Even a single improper disposal event can trigger an investigation, and enforcement agencies have increasingly used anonymous tip lines and routine audits to identify violators across Southern California.

TechWaste Recycling Inc. provides R2-certified electronics recycling and ITAD (IT Asset Disposition) services specifically designed to keep Santa Ana businesses fully compliant. The company offers secure chain-of-custody documentation, certified data destruction with serialized certificates, and zero-landfill processing for all accepted materials. Services are available for businesses of all sizes, from single-location offices to multi-site enterprise accounts managing large-volume device retirement cycles.

Residents of Santa Ana can also drop off personal electronics — including laptops, desktops, smartphones, tablets, printers, and televisions — at the TechWaste Recycling facility located at Santa Ana, CA 92705. To view the facility on Google Maps, visit https://maps.app.goo.gl/v6XWYm8xYR5KVeSq9

California’s Covered Electronic Waste (CEW) program requires that manufacturers fund the recycling of covered devices, and consumers are legally encouraged to return electronics only to authorized collectors. TechWaste Recycling is a registered and authorized collector under California’s CEW program, ensuring all materials processed through its facility are handled in strict accordance with state and federal environmental regulations. Businesses seeking to schedule a pickup or audit their current disposal procedures are encouraged to contact the TechWaste Recycling compliance team directly.
For directions to the Santa Ana facility, visit https://maps.app.goo.gl/iMVGxAC7GgDSkccS7 — walk-in drop-offs are welcomed during regular business hours, and scheduled bulk pickups are available for commercial accounts across Orange County and the greater Los Angeles metro area.

With California regulators actively expanding enforcement capacity and fine schedules remaining among the steepest in the nation, the cost of non-compliance has never been higher. A single enforcement action can dwarf the total cost of years of proper recycling services. TechWaste Recycling Inc. encourages every Santa Ana business and household to audit their current electronics disposal practices and transition to a certified, documented, fully compliant recycling program before a violation occurs.

About TechWaste Recycling Inc.
TechWaste Recycling Inc. is a California-based, R2-certified electronics recycling and IT Asset Disposition (ITAD) company serving businesses, government agencies, schools, and residents across Orange County and the greater Southern California region. Founded on a commitment to zero-landfill processing and full regulatory compliance, TechWaste Recycling provides secure data destruction, certified chain-of-custody documentation, and responsible material recovery for all categories of covered electronic waste. The company is a registered collector under California’s Covered Electronic Waste (CEW) program and maintains strict adherence to DTSC, RCRA, and state environmental standards. For enterprises managing large-scale device retirement, TechWaste Recycling offers customized ITAD programs with serialized destruction certificates and full audit trails.

Founder of Hines Rowing Center Helped Expand Opportunities for Women and Young Athletes Across the Philadelphia Rowing Community

CHERRY HILL, NJ, UNITED STATES, March 11, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — The 27th Annual Knecht Cup Regatta, set for Saturday, April 11 and Sunday, April 12 on the Cooper River, will honor one of the Philadelphia region’s most influential champions of rowing by dedicating the Women’s Varsity Quad race trophy in the name of Lois Trench-Hines, a pioneer for women’s rowing and a lifelong advocate for expanding access to the sport.

This recognition is part of the Knecht Cup Regatta Honorees Series, highlighting individuals whose dedication, innovation and leadership have helped shape the sport of rowing locally, nationally and internationally. Through these tributes, the Knecht Cup celebrates the athletes, officials, coaches and advocates whose lifelong contributions have strengthened the rowing community and inspired new generations of competitors.

For more than six decades, Trench-Hines has been a driving force in the Greater Delaware Valley rowing community — as an elite athlete, referee, mentor and program builder whose work has opened the sport to generations of young athletes.

Trench-Hines began rowing in 1965, when opportunities for women in the sport were still limited. After joining the small but determined community of women rowing along Philadelphia’s Boathouse Row, she quickly embraced the sport’s physical and technical challenges and began what would become a lifetime of involvement in competitive rowing.

Her talent as an athlete soon carried her to the international stage. In 1973, she represented the United States at the European Rowing Championships in Moscow, competing in the coxed quadruple sculls –an experience that cemented her place among the early generation of elite American women rowers.

Throughout the decades that followed, she worked tirelessly to expand opportunities for women in rowing, helping bring women’s events to major regattas such as the Dad Vail and advocating for the development of scholastic rowing programs for young women.

Perhaps her most lasting contribution came with the creation of the Hines Rowing Center and Whitemarsh Boat Club, facilities she helped develop alongside her late husband, Hall of Fame rower and coach George C. Hines.

What began as a shared vision between two lifelong rowing advocates has grown into one of the region’s most important training campuses — now home to nine scholastic rowing programs and clubs, providing opportunities for young athletes to discover the sport and pursue rowing at the collegiate level and beyond.

“Lois Trench-Hines has helped shape the modern rowing community in Philadelphia,” said Laura Knecht Blanche, Regatta Director of the Knecht Cup Regatta. “From her own racing career to her decades of advocacy and mentorship, she has opened doors for generations of athletes. The impact of the Hines Rowing Center alone is extraordinary, and we are proud to recognize her legacy at the Knecht Cup.”

Her leadership and lifelong dedication to the sport have been widely recognized. In 2022, Trench-Hines received the Dr. George Morton Illman Award, the Malta Boat Club’s most prestigious honor, recognizing individuals whose contributions have had a lasting impact on the Philadelphia rowing community.

“When I started rowing in the mid-1960s, there were very few opportunities for women in the sport,” Trench-Hines said. “What has motivated me ever since is the belief that rowing should be accessible to anyone who wants to take on the challenge. If we can create opportunities for young athletes to get in a boat and discover what they’re capable of, then we’ve done something meaningful for the future of the sport.”

The trophy named in her honor reflects the same qualities that have defined her life’s work — dedication, perseverance and a commitment to expanding the reach of the sport she loves.

“The Knecht Cup has become one of the premier collegiate regattas in the country, and it’s wonderful to see so many young athletes competing at such a high level,” said Trench-Hines. “Events like this keep the sport vibrant and give the next generation of rowers the chance to push themselves and grow.”

As competitors gather this April on the Cooper River, the crews racing for the Lois Trench-Hines Trophy will be part of a legacy shaped by one of rowing’s most passionate advocates.

And fittingly, many of those athletes will be rowing today because pioneers like Lois Trench-Hines worked to ensure they had the opportunity.
