Consider this the video counterpart to yesterday’s review of Design Miami/ 2009. We still recommend you head out for yourself, but in the meantime enjoy OK Go’s laser guitar performance, designer Maarten Baas’s human-powered clockwork (that’s the man himself opening the cabinet), and other assorted bits of fancy from the…

The eighth annual edition showcases more than 260 galleries and 2,000 artists from…
Olives, vermouth, and a raven-haired bombshell. Shake. Dita Von Teese, one of the dolls at the forefront of the nouveaux burlesque movement, has made writhing in a martini glass more popular than actually drinking one. Her corseted 16-inch waist has inspired a generation of women tired of tube-like bods. Legend…

Only a guy named Lars von Trier could go to the Cannes Film Festival with a movie called Antichrist, get booed throughout the screening, and then go into the pressroom and say — and this is a direct quote — “I am the best film director in the world.” And…

Watching The State back in the ’90s (yes, we were alive then), we always felt like the corporate slave drivers at MTV were holding the reins a little too tightly on Michael Ian Black, David Showalter, Thomas Lennon, and company. The utter weirdness behind nonsensical skits such as “Taco Mail…
Yes, the New England Patriots are the class of the division. But, as Joey Porter likes to continually remind everyone, the Miami Dolphins are still the defending AFC East champs. And even though Porter had as many tackles as your sister could have pulled off when New England beat Miami…
Have you ever heard the sound of a tween girl screaming? It’s lengthy and piercing, effortlessly fading in and out of dog-whistle decibel range. It’s a sound you’ll certainly hear at this weekend’s Fantasy Twi-Life Tour, an extravaganza dedicated to the phenomenon that is Twilight. If you haven’t heard about…

Chestnuts are roasting on the sun-warmed sidewalk, and tiny tots are in their strollers crying like hell. It’s Christmastime in Miami, and even though the weather isn’t quite wintry, the usual holiday detectors are still at play. Sure, Walgreens has been celebrating since 11:59 Halloween night, but it ain’t Xmas…
One thing about Miami its that it’s always Christmas here, ’cause you can ski fresh powder nostril-first any day of the year. For actual snow, check out Snow Days in the Grove, where eight tons of that cold white stuff we’ve seen on television gets dumped all over Virginia Street…
