Hey, you have something on your shoulder. Oh, sorry. It was just one of your angels hanging out — you know, the one who sits on the opposite side of that little devil and attempts to guide you into making the right decisions. Sure, you do not always listen and…
We love yoga people. With their lithe bodies and funny pants, they quietly pad around town, doing headstands and back bends, spreading peace and harmony throughout the community. This weekend, those who are flexible in both body and mind have the opportunity to be enlightened by the revered Sri Siva…
To put it bluntly, the last time the Florida Panthers met the Tampa Bay Lightning on the ice, the Cats totally kicked their ass. The best part? The game was in Tampa, where the Panthers set a team record for most goals scored on the road. We’re sure Brad Richards,…
Funnel cakes, corn dogs, and deep fried Snickers bars. Kettle corn, cotton candy, elephant ears, and pretty much every other fattening treat on a stick can be found among the 200 food vendors at this year’s Miami-Dade County Fair and Exposition at the Fair Expo Center. If you’ve eaten too…
Although this year’s Super Bowl ads were sorely lacking in hilarity, a world of raucous fun in advertising is waiting for you in The Night of the Ad-Eaters. Presented by Alliance Française of Miami/Fort Lauderdale, with support from Le Soleil de La Floride, the two-hour subtitled commercial marathon features more…
For young ravers, Richie Hawtin is a great DJ for supplying rhythms to roll to. With arms spread and glowsticks twirling, the world is lost in his smooth and tripnotic techno beats. But true fans of Hawtin — and his alter ego Plastikman — know his brilliant compositions of ambient…
Ladies, we know you really do not need an excuse to attend a fabulous fashion show, but today you can catch a peek at Rene Ruiz’s spring and summer line while putting another notch in your philanthropy belt. Known as the “Bat Mitzvah King” in society circles, Ruiz will show…
Kind of folky, a little bit country, and totally embracing the indie spirit, Deblois is a local up-and-comer you might have missed. About to embark on her first tour, Deblois will be rockin’ Transit Lounge with her acoustic sounds tonight (from 10:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m.) before hitting the road…
Stargazers were scheduled to gather in late January for the Southern Cross Astros’ annual Tropical Star Party, but Mother Nature put the kibosh on that viewing. Luckily for you, this tenacious bunch has rescheduled, and the late winter sky is still providing a celestial storybook of dogs, hunters, and nymphs…
The Panthers’ Olympians have returned from Torino, and we’d like to congratulate the medalists. Center Olli Jokinen earned a silver medal for his native Finland in a 3-2 loss to Sweden, and left wing Rostislav Olesz’s Czech Republic team blanked Russia and snatched the bronze. While riding their Olympic high,…
With just one glance, great photography has the power to transport you to other locations and times. You lose yourself in aquamarine skies, emerald oceans, and cobblestone paths, and imagine — even if for a moment — you are somewhere other than your chaotic world. In “The Borders between Dreams…
The neon lights will be bright tonight in the Wynwood Art District when New York artist Tapp Francke’s exhibit “Chromesthesia” opens at Dot Fiftyone. Francke takes our universal and often intense response to color and sends us on a loopy neon ride through a tube of emotional juxtaposition. Staring at…
Another year is coming to an end, and we’re once again nostalgic for the easy days of the Eighties, when we would spend Christmas vacation watching Duran Duran, Depeche Mode, and Smiths videos on MTV. Our hair was big, our makeup frosted, and our hot pink pumps looked so killer…
Just the mention of Winter Party Festival can send all the pretty boys and handsome women squealing. The sophisticated selection of arts and cultural events — including ballet, film, fashion show, music, museums, and comedy — is a classy complement to the rum fueled pool parties for which the festival…
Our only complaint about the fabulously decadent fifth annual South Beach Wine & Food Festival is that it’s just not big enough. Yes, last year organizers did add an extra tent on the beach — brimming with even more food, wine, and liquor samples — but the tickets sell out…
Sure you used to have a lot of things in common, but now you’re just the same. (At least that’s what Wilco tells us in the song “Pick Up the Change.”) Maybe you two just need to add a new twist to your routine. In today’s Partner/Couples Yoga with Pam…
Eighteen years is a long time for anything — or anyone — to stick around in Miami. Artists come and go; structures are built and torn down; businesses launch and then go bankrupt. But for something as awkward and funky as teenage dramanoid, the Subtropics Experimental Music and Sound Arts…
If you are not in the market for a boat — or a man with a boat — you will probably want to steer clear of the yearly clusterfuck known as the Miami International Boat Show & Strictly Sail taking place this weekend at the Miami Beach Convention Center and…

Fans of the stoner classic Dazed and Confused will remember Anthony Rapp as Tony, the sidekick to Adam Goldberg’s Mike — you know, the one who had the dream about “getting it on with the perfect female body … but with the head of Abraham Lincoln.” Rapp went on to…
To commemorate the month long celebration of black history, the IFE-ILE Dance Company presents “Tribute to the Waters.” The event showcases an evening of music, art, and dance in praise of Ochun, the goddess of love and fertility; and Yemaya, the goddess of the sea. “Based on the Afro Cuban…
For those who yearn to wear capes and powdered wigs while milling around onstage behind opera stars, today is your day. Florida Grand Opera is holding open auditions for supernumeraries — otherwise known as extras — for its spring performances of Giuseppe Verdi’s Rigoletto and Georges Bizet’s Carmen. “We like…
