Behold, the world's largest aluminum sailing yacht.

The 210-foot long vessel was sold in November 2014, for around $25 million.

Christened "Felicita West" when she was built in 2002, the yacht features luxury accommodations for up to 14 guests in her 5 cabins.

She was renamed "Spirit of the C's" when sold last year.

She is manned by a crew of 14 and tops out at a leisurely of 15 knots (17 mph).

Perini Navi, the ship's builder, envisioned a yacht that would provide the perfect combination of sailing excitement and cosseted luxury. Based on these breathtaking pictures, we believe they executed their vision flawlessly.

The yacht was the brainchild of legendary naval architect Ron Holland and Italian design firm Nuvolari-Lenard.

Originally constructed in 2003, it underwent an extensive refit in 2011.

It comes equipped with two Zodiac tender motor boats.

WeWork is a four-year-old company that rents office space to startups and entrepreneurs. Tenants get their own office, but share the rest of the area, like the bathroom and kitchen. 

It sounds like a simple idea, but WeWork — with 25 offices worldwide — is now one of the most valuable startups in the world: last month, it raised $355 million at a $5 billion valuation.

We visited its two office spaces in San Francisco this week, and were blown away by how nice they were.

WeWork's newest San Francisco office is at 25 Taylor Street. It's in the Mid-Market district of San Francisco, a downtown area that's getting gentrified.

Zendesk's main office is right across the street. Twitter is a few blocks away.

The reception area's pretty modest. You can get your packages checked in here.

Tucked in the mountains of Massachusetts, the Rowe Center sleep-away camp is every teenager's dream. Each summer, the camp enrolls hundreds of campers between 12 and 18 and affords them nearly unlimited freedom.

From the activities they do to whether or not they go to sleep, teenagers are empowered to make their own decisions and exercise their independence. Adult supervision is practically nonexistent.

Photographer Jennifer Loeber attended the camp during her teenage years and recently went back to document the camp and the many characters who attend. The resulting project is called “Cruel Story of Youth,” which Loeber says refers to the world that the campers must return to after leaving the camp.

Loeber shared a number of photos with us here, but you can check out the rest at her website and follow her on Instagram.

Rowe Camp was founded in 1924 in the Berkshire Mountains of Massachusetts by members of the Unitarian Universalist Church. For 90 years, the camp has sought to make kids of all different types and creeds feel at home. In the 1960s, the camp found its place as a haven for the countercultural, which it has continued to be ever since.

Loeber first visited the camp in the 1980s, when her father enrolled her at the suggestion of a friend who was the camp’s director in the 1970s. Despite Loeber’s protests, she attended the camp that year and continued to attend every summer from 12 to 17. She calls her experience “life-changing."

The camp operates today in nearly the same way it did during Loeber’s time. There is no schedule, no curfew, and minimal adult presence. Campers make up their own schedules and arrange their own activities with other campers, whether that’s going swimming or making arts and crafts. “It’s like ‘Lord of the Flies,’ but not dangerous,” says Loeber.

Sunday night's 72nd annual Golden Globes honored the year's best in television and film.

But many tuned in ahead of the broadcast to see what stars are wearing on the red carpet.

From the cast of "Entourage" to HBO's "Girls," see who's wearing what at tonight's big show.

Golden Globes hosts Tina Fey and Amy Poehler joked they had "about 50 costume changes" during the show.

George Clooney, who received a Cecil B. DeMille award, with wife Amal Clooney.

Adrian Grenier, Kevin Dillon, Kevin Connolly, Emmanuelle Chriqui, Jerry Ferrara, and Jeremy Piven were a coordinated "Entourage."

The streets around the offices of Charlie Hebdo, the Paris-based satirical magazine where Islamist gunmen killed 12 people because editors there had published cartoons of Mohammed, are starting to attract crowds of mourners and tourists who are laying flowers and personal messages to honour the dead.

The scenes are reminiscent of those around "Ground Zero," the site of the Sept. 11, 2001, destruction of the World Trade Center towers, which became (and remains) one of the largest tourist attractions in New York.

We visited the site this weekend.

Police have blocked off the streets around the Charlie Hebdo office. This is about as close as you can get.

Note that one of the offices is flying a "Je suis Charlie" sign in solidarity with their neighbours.

People are drawn to the site because they want to pay tribute to the dead.

It probably wasn’t funny for fans not involved in the crowd riot at the Darts Invitational Challenge in Melbourne on Saturday, but the rest of the world is still laughing.

Aussie arrows ace Simon ‘The Wizard’ Whitlock was locked in a final with Michael ‘Mighty Mike’ Van Gerwen when the boozed up crowd in fancy dress decided to make a chair pyramid.

Police were called in and up to 40 people were evicted. And while it’s tempting to say the whole thing was a bit of an embarrassment for Australia, the reality is, the rest of the world wasn’t all that surprised.

Particularly the media here in Britain, the spiritual home of the pub sport in which drinking for professional competitors was banned (on stage) in 1989 in a bid to arrest a decline in sponsorship.

It seemed a cheerful occasion, at least at the beginning.

Not so cheerful after some time.

The BBC saw it best, noting this “man dressed as Batman’s sidekick Robin wrestling with an English knight”.

On Sunday, thousands of commuters faced the winter freeze for the annual No Pants Subway Ride, a yearly event organized by New York comedy group Improv Everywhere.  

As you can imagine, the event involved riding the subway without wearing your trousers (called pants in America). Here in London, the event is called No Trousers On The Tube. 

This year, the event took place in more than 60 cities in 25 countries. 

It was the 14th edition of the initiative, which was launched in 2002.

Let's start the world tour in the Czech Republic.

These Czechs know how to ride in style.

It was the first year for the initiative in Romania.

As any cigar aficionado will tell you, cigars are a hobby, not a habit. And like any hobby, there is a right way and a wrong way to do it.

We reached out to Michael Herklots, vice president for retail and brand development for the Nat Sherman cigar brand, and asked him what true connoisseurs avoid while smoking cigars.

Whether you're a beginner or an expert, keep reading to see the seven worst mistakes that you can make while lighting up.

Mistake No. 1: Expecting two cigars to smoke the same.

Premium cigars are a handmade product created from an agricultural crop. Since so much variation can occur with the blends used, types of tobacco, and how the cigars were made, it's next to impossible to predict how a cigar will smoke with 100% certainty, according to Herklots.

Real cigar aficionados know this and embrace these small variations. You should too.

Mistake No. 2: Thinking that cigar flavors change from year to year, like wines.

Cigars are a nonvintage industry, which means cigar manufacturers try to ensure their cigar offerings taste the same from year to year. They add to and tinker with their tobacco blends, always trying to make sure the blend maintains the same taste while accounting for natural variation.

Over time, the taste of the cigar model will change, but very slowly. According to Herklots, the difference is negligible in the short term.

Mistake No. 3: Holding the cigar in your mouth.

A cigar isn't something t0 "clench between your teeth and cheek and suck on," Herklots says. It should be held in your hand and brought up to your mouth to puff, then brought back down to hang out between your fingers.

This also helps the cigar burn cooler, so you don't waste any precious tobacco.  

Mistake No. 4: Dipping the cigar in alcohol.

The flavor of the liquor can ruin the taste of the cigar and make it different from what the cigar manufacturer intended.

"I can assure you that if that cigar manufacturer wanted cognac at the end of the cigar, they would put it there," Herklots says.

Mistake No. 5: Limiting your cigar smoking to only one brand or type.

You can have your preferred brand, sure. But don't let some mistaken sense of duty or loyalty to a particular brand keep you from sampling several varieties of cigars.

Herklots says he has a repertoire of 10 to 12 go-to cigars that are all different types and brands. It's a great goal for any serious cigar smoker.

Mistake No. 6: Smoking what everyone else is smoking.

Don't just smoke the same fat cigar that the CEO you're meeting with is smoking. You're far better off asking the experts around you what you might enjoy instead of hacking up a lung and wasting a cigar.

This is especially good advice for beginners who aren't as comfortable smoking cigars just yet, Herklots says.

Mistake No. 7: Inhaling the cigar smoke.

You should never inhale while smoking a cigar. They're not cigarettes, and the tobacco is often much stronger.

Instead, merely take a puff and let it sit in your mouth for a few seconds while you taste it. Then simply blow it out. Puff and rotate your cigar every 30 seconds to one minute, and enjoy it with a strong alcoholic beverage.

Though that first day at your new job may be stressful, it's important to channel your nervous energy and start things off on the right foot. 

SEE ALSO: 9 Things Successful People Do In The First Week Of A New Job

1. Prepare and ask questions.

Mark Strong, a life, career, and executive coach based in New York, says although the first day really is more about listening; you can and should ask questions when necessary. "Generally, you're trying to demonstrate your curiosity and desire to learn. Beware of asking too many questions on the first day, though. You have plenty of time to master the job."

Taylor says it's a good idea to prepare by writing down both practical and general questions about how you can be most successful in the role. "By now you have enough background on the company to integrate more in-depth questions at your orientation meetings," she says. "Have a list of questions handy for managers you think you might meet. Make sure you also have a contact in HR in case you have very basic inquiries before you start or on your first day."

2. Prepare an elevator pitch.

Get ready to give a 30-second explainer of who you are and where you were before, as many new colleagues will likely ask about your previous place of employment, says Lynn Taylor, a national workplace expert and the author of "Tame Your Terrible Office Tyrant; How to Manage Childish Boss Behavior and Thrive in Your Job." Be prepared to also describe what you'll be doing in this new position, since there may be people who have a vague understanding of your role or simply want to strike up a conversation.

3. Show up early.

Get there at least 15 minutes early, suggests Teri Hockett, chief executive of What's For Work?, a career site for women. "If you haven't done the commute before, practice it a couple of times during rush hour a week before so that you're at least somewhat prepared for the unknown."

The most expensive and lavish of six apartments built atop New York City's historic Puck Building has hit the market for $66 million.

The price is astounding, and if it sells at the list price, it would become the most expensive apartment building sold in downtown New York, according to Curbed.

The 7,241-square-foot apartment features six bedrooms, 7.5 bathrooms, a gym, home theater, wine cellar, and beautiful rooftop patio.

The rooftop patio features a hot tub and a "yoga lawn."

Another lounge-y section of the patio.

The side of the rooftop has a grill and eating area.

Going to a top boarding school can do more than help students get into a good college — it can provide them with a powerful alumni network, a solid education, and lifelong friends.

We examined the most prestigious boarding schools in the country to find the best of the best.

To do so, we factored in each school's endowment, acceptance rate, and average SAT scores, as reported by BoardingSchoolReview.com. We weighed each of those criteria equally to rank the schools.

Data that was unavailable on BoardingSchoolReview.com was taken from the schools' websites or from Niche.

50. Holderness School – Plymouth, New Hampshire

Average SAT score: 1800

Endowment: $60 million

The Holderness School has a two-week period in March where students participate with their graduate class in experiential special programs that range from outdoor exploration to community service. Holderness accepts 45% of applicants and has class sizes averaging around 12 students.

49. Lake Forest Academy – Lake Forest, Illinois

Average SAT score: 1820

Endowment: $25 million

Since 2002, Lake Forest Academy has held an annual Head of School Symposium where students and faculty engage in conversations, presentations, and trips about diversity and global pluralism — a topic highly valued by the school. Linked with Lake Forest College, the boarding school accepts 36% of applicants.

48. St. Anne's-Belfield School – Charlottesville, Virginia

Average SAT score: 1827

Endowment: $25 million

Originally founded as a school for the daughters of University of Virginia graduates, St. Anne's-Belfield School accepts 35% of applicants. The now-coed school keeps classes small, averaging 13.7 students, and offers 15 AP courses.

Bushfires have been raging through parts of South Australia this month and the country’s firefighters have been working tirelessly to keep them at bay.

It’s a dangerous job — something that has been said countless times — but a fact that probably can’t fully be understood unless you’ve walked into one of these deadly infernos.

Last week volunteer firefighter Ben Wilson, who is also a photographer, taped a GoPro to his helmet to show just what it’s like on the front line.

The eight minute video shows how hard these men and women work in smokey conditions, lifting heavy hoses, generators and other equipment to put out the fires which rage around them.

The remote nature of some of these blazes means firefighters have to think quickly to protect people, animals and homes. At one point you can see them connecting a hose to a water tank to pump more water onto the encroaching fire.

Here's the footage:

A crew of more than 100 NSW volunteer firefighters were sent to South Australia on Tuesday to relieve their SA colleagues. Since Friday bushfires in South Australia have claimed up to 38 homes and burnt 13,000 hectares of land.

Wilson has requested donations be made to SA’s rural fire service, the Country Fire Service Foundation to help fire fighting efforts.

Here's one tip to remember when choosing a college major: Passion should always trump paycheck.

That's especially important to keep in mind if you're interested in working with children, since college majors like elementary education and child development have some of the lowest starting salaries.

It's clear that buying a luxury yacht costs a lot of money.

Less obvious is just how much cash is required to keep a yacht running once it finds an owner.

In an interview about "Grand Ambition," his book about private equity investor Doug Von Allmen and his luxury yacht "Lady Linda,"G. Bruce Knecht told the New York Times, "Operating and maintaining a yacht is at least 10 percent of what the thing cost."

So the owner of a $10 million yacht should expect to pay $1 million every year to keep it running.

Both Kim Kavin, the charter editor at Yachting magazine and editor of CharterWave.com, and Gianluca Fenucci, the founder and director of ISA Yachts, told Business Insider the 10 percent estimate is pretty accurate.

That estimate is "quite in line and within the average for a standard operational use of a megayacht," even when various conditions (like the yacht's age) are taken into account, Fenucci said.

However, Nicolas Valin, the president of Neo Yachting, argued the rule of thumb "does NOT work...There are many aspects which interfere with the cost of operation of a yacht."

While it may not be a perfect guideline, the 10 percent figure puts into focus just what a luxury yacht is: a complex, floating machine that requires a crew, huge amounts of fuel, docking, and maintenance.

Kavin says that marina docking fees for a week at an event like the Monaco Grand Prix usually run in the six figures, and that fuel is commonly the biggest expense a yacht owner faces.

Then there are the people who must be paid to sail the yacht, keep it clean, and feed everyone on board. Annually, a good, experienced captain makes about $1,000 per foot of yacht, Kavin says. So the captain of a 150-foot yacht can put $150,000 in the bank every year.

Luxury Yacht Group provides salary guidelines that line up with that estimate: A Senior Master captain (10+ years of experience) can expect to make between $96,000 and $240,000 per year, for ships between 120 and 200 feet long.

At the low end of that range, that's $800 per foot. At the high end, it comes out to $1,200 per foot.

Even for wealthy yacht owners, these huge, fixed costs can put a dent in the bank account. They are part of the reason Knecht's book about the "Lady Linda" is a cautionary tale: Hurt by the 2008 crisis and overwhelmed by bills, Von Allmen was eventually forced to put his beloved, incredibly opulent yacht on sale in 2012, for $50 million.

With a second trip to the college football championship game in five years, Oregon has established itself as one of the top college football programs in the country.

But to most fans, the Ducks will always be the school that started the trend of wild and wacky uniforms that change seemingly every week.

It wasn't always that way. Before Nike got its grips on the Oregon program, the Ducks wore some of the most classic uniforms in college football. On the next few pages we will take a look at how those uniforms have changed through the years.

In the 1920s, Oregon players wore light-colored leather helmets, possibly white.

Nothing is more classic than the Oregon uniforms worn in the 1958 Rose Bowl, featuring yellow helmets with numbers on the side and white jerseys with shoulder stripes.

In the early 1970s, the Ducks (dark jerseys) were wearing a simple yellow helmet without logos or numbers.

Wall Street's most bullish strategist sees the oil's plunge and the dollar's strength as positives for stocks.

"Of the five 40% declines in oil, the stock market only fell two times—and both were a result of the US being in a recession at the time," Fundstrat's Tom Lee writes of the the history.

"We realize investors are a bit concerned about the negative effects from a surging currency (hurting exports) but consider that strong USD is stimulative for Europe/Asia (trade flows) and also enables US companies to acquire assets cheaply."

Lee identified eight large-cap stocks that he believes should benefit the most in this weak-oil, strong-dollar environment. Each stock has a positive free cash flow yield, and analysts have raised 2015 earnings estimates on them within the last two calendar quarters. All the companies are in the consumer discretionary, consumer staples, healthcare or telecom sectors.

Dubai has been one of the most exciting and volatile economic stories of the 21st century.

It's global, glitzy, and growing like crazy.

It also has a red-hot property market that has experts warning of a collapsing bubble. Related concerns have been tied to recent crashes in Dubai's stock market.

Still, the tiny economy has developed into a world city that is a business and cultural focal point in the Middle East, and it has the attention of the world.

Tourism and real estate drive the economy, and there seems to be a never-ending development of innovative and over-the-top projects.

One out of every 4 cranes on Earth is located in Dubai.

Last weekend, the first London Classic Car Show was hosted in the English capital, bringing together car enthusiasts and vintage rides from all over the region for display and to buy. 

Prices generally spread from £100,000 to several millions, although there are often higher values that are not revealed because seller will opt for a closed-door auction. 

"For many, it is an investment," Samuel Laurence, a vintage car merchant in London, told Business Insider UK. "They do not lose value. Rather, it rises."

Auto Express further supported that idea noting last year that "classic cars are now seen as a much better investment than savings accounts."

If you're thinking of getting into the game, Business Insider UK attended the event and we've highlighted some of the most interesting models, all of which are for sale.
