One look at the DIY website Etsy proves it: Homemade crafts have come a long way since Nana’s crocheted doilies. Though there are plenty of failed attempts at creativity represented on the site — Regretsy, anyone? — they’re balanced by pieces that are original, inventive, and aesthetically stunning. And many…
[NAME] Publications offers certain Miami artists the opportunity to freely create content within two hard covers. Founder Gean Moreno relinquishes editorial control over each book.

The New Year is upon us, once again!This one is noteworthy because it is the last on the Mayan calendar. What does that mean? Nothing really. Remember in 1999 when the media convinced us that Y2K would end life for us as we know it? Well, the Mayans did the…
With the New Year just a few days away, we’re all soul-searching for meaningful resolutions. Coincidentally, with 2012 comes paying 2011’s pesky taxes, which means we’re also searching for ways to get out of giving our year’s savings to Uncle Sam. Whether you’re in it for the gift of giving,…
A waft of stale Coors Banquet and Camel cigarette smoke smacks you like a schoolyard sucker punch, temporarily clouding your vision and watering your eyes.
