• Miami Is in Nevada, According to Noted Cartographer Joan Collins

  Let's give actress Joan Collins a break. She's 75 years old and British, plus for whatever reason, CBS's Early Show decided to play a cutesy game where the only cities ID'ed had something to do with the TV program Dynasty (which I understand to be some sort of Gossip Girl for old people in the Eighties). Joan has no idea what is going on and asks if Fallon, Nevada, is actually Miami. The regular CBS weatherman steps in to show her where Florida is, but he is no Al Roker, and Joan is clearly no

• Doughnuts and Beer at Scope International Contemporary Art

  Walking into the Scope tent yesterday was like getting smacked in the face with an art stick. You know, in a good way. Inside, it was a visual sensory overload, with way too much for any normal, methamphetamine-free viewer to see in one trip. Riptide felt like a contestant on Supermarket Sweep, rushing to cram in the best stuff before time ran out.It didn't matter, though. We were sold before we even saw a single piece of work. How could we be so easy?  Umm, because at one point during "the

• Iggy Pop: "Miami's a hell of a good town to eat a banana!"

  Sorry Rosie, Diddy, and Gloria, but Iggy Pop may just be our favorite celebrity resident of the Magic City. CNN Travel caught up with Mr. Pop to talk about why he moved to the city. Apparently he was looking for a place that was like an "elegant coma." CNN: Is Miami similar to you as a person? IP: Miami is nothing like me and that's why I need to be here -- it's the opposite. I'm practical, where this place is moody, I'm stolid in my interior where this place has a certain flair and I'm materia

• Ted Turner and Bill O'Reilly Squabble Over Castro

  Media magnate Ted Turner famously got the idea for CNN International from Fidel Castro, and he remains unabashed in his admiration for the dictator. Turner made his debut on The O'Reilly Factor last night, and for once we are actually agreeing with Bill O'Reilly. Turner says he admires the bearded one, before O'Reilly is all like, 'Uh, Ted, he's killed a bunch of people. He has political prisoners. People are poor. He's a power hungry fascist. Communism sucks.' Turner finally retreats with, "Hey

• Former FBI Agent Would Like Everyone to Forget About His Murder Conviction

  Former FBI agent John Connolly was convicted of second-degree murder in a Miami courtroom last month, and that was the last we thought we'd heard of him. Apparently not, because his lawyers have filed a legal brief asking for the conviction to be thrown out, according to the Boston Globe. His lawyers are arguing there's a four-year statute of limitations on second-degree murder, unless it's committed with a firearm. Since Connolly didn't actually commit the murder, and hence didn't possess th
