It's an unusually cool August night in downtown Miami, and the hum of cars racing past on the nearby MacArthur Causeway is muted by a boisterous crowd wearing sky-high platform shoes, glitter, and heavy eyeliner. Close to 1 a.m., as the horde cracks hand fans, Jupiter Velvet, bathed in a...
The recent revelation that dolphins died in Irma's aftermath calls into question whether the Seaquarium is a safe place for marine animals during hurricanes.
Mike Mayta begins by searing a heap of chicken livers in schmaltz. Then come cognac, garlic, onion, paprika, and cayenne. The result is something like Jewish deli chopped liver. Next, the 30-year-old chef adds a dash of ginger and celery salt, confit garlic, and shallots, which make the concoction more...

Taiyaki, famous for its fish-shaped cones and exotic flavored ice cream, has created the most adorable treat known to mankind: Unicorn ice cream. This magical ice cream cone has been causing a sensation at Taiyaki's flagship shop in New York City for months and now it's coming to Miami. Taiyaki...
If you're trying to predict what kind of new legislation Tallahassee will eventually pass in response to the Parkland massacre, just ask a simple question: What would Marion Hammer do? The über-powerful NRA lobbyist has spent the past 20 years methodically turning the Sunshine State into a heavily armed free-for-all, and so far, the bought-and-paid-for GOP Legislature has never failed to do her bidding.
If you would have asked Dolphins fans last season whether the franchise had finally found a head coach they could trust for many years, you would have seen a sea of hands. "Yesssss!" they probably would have said. "Keep Adam Gase for years!" Winning nine of the past 11 games to end your first season on the job tends to move your approval rate upward. Dolphins fans, and management, were quite happy with the man leading their football team.
"I'm feeling a greater responsibility than before to show as many people as I can the beauty and the artistry and the genius that comes from the Haitian culture and Haiti," classical pianist Marianne Parker says.
In a pivotal scene of the 1978 kung fu classic The 36th Chamber of Shaolin, the protagonist poses an existential question: “Do men have a right to say what they believe in? Or must they always do what the government says?” It’s a simple line that has come to define the film’s overarching theme — the oppressed versus the oppressor — and one that resonates with the multitalented artist RZA 40 years later.
As you might have guessed and/or feared, Will Gluck’s screen adaptation of Peter Rabbit departs fairly significantly from Beatrix Potter’s beloved children’s tales. But though the film insists on its own irreverence a bit too much at the outset — it opens with a group of birds inspirationally singing, “You’re only as small as your dreams,” before they get abruptly knocked out of the sky — it offers plenty of lively fun once it settles down, and wisely keeps the pandering to a minimum.

An average renter household in the Magic City needs $1,558 saved to break even after the holidays.
Most attorneys don't deserve the bad rap their profession has gotten. But when a lawyer hires an unlicensed doctor to help sell fake marijuana certificates for $800 apiece that supposedly give people legal cover to grow weed, he has earned a bit of that ugly reputation. And once SWAT teams start kicking those clients' doors down and hauling them off to jail, it's probably time that lawyer lost his license.
Attorney Stephanie Langer has a saying for the enormous challenge of taking on a school district that's failed a special-needs student: It's like being "a gnat on the side of a cruise ship." Even with a strong case, a parent is in for a gruelingly long and expensive battle against a heavily lawyered system.
The absolute worst thing you can ask Florida's current cadre of politicians to do is solve a problem. Tallahassee is, by design, filled with barely literate Cro-Magnons who basically just put their name on whatever bill a lobbyist places between them and a free sandwich. Floridians saw the worst of...
Two of the biggest firms that built the Florida International University pedestrian bridge that collapsed today have recently been accused of unsafe practices. In one of those cases, another bridge project toppled onto workers.

Robbie Elias was about to quit the music business when his father-in-law suggested he watch a music documentary. "It had Phil Spector in it," Elias recollects. "He started talking about making the Ronettes song 'Be My Baby.' It got me digging into soul and pop music from the '60s." After...
Over the weekend, the second edition of House of Creatives Music Festival took place on Virginia Key, bringing indie favorites such as Metronomy and WhoMadeWho, as well as beloved crossover acts Alt-J, Washed Out, and MGMT. Turbulent weather made enjoyment of the last act — the weekend’s most anticipated performance — difficult. Rainfall and the threat of lightning strikes forced MGMT to take the stage more than an hour after the band's scheduled time, resulting in a set that was as short as it had been anticipated.
Over the past two years, the mobile apps that put almost any dish a couch-bound eater could want within a moderate wait has also put Miami restaurants in a pickle.
