This Thanksgiving, why waste time baking a pumpkin pie when you can just buy one? We're not talking about a mass-produced puck from Publix. We're talking about the ultimate pumpkin pie from Fireman Derek's World-Famous Pies. Derek Kaplan -- a six-foot-two, tattooed City of Miami firefighter -- has been baking...
Bill Nelson finally dragged his feet to supporting a bill that prevent job discrimination for LGBT citizens, but his fellow Florida senator, Marco Rubio, continues to sip on some watered-down Anita Bryant-style orange juice and has reiterated his opposition to the bill. What's his excuse? Oh, a bunch of things...
As an electronic music promoter, you either fail or succeed. But one win doesn't mean the struggle is over. A second attempt must prove your accomplishments were no fluke. You've got to avoid the sophomore slump. Pull something off not once but twice, and you've officially hit a watershed. It's...
One of the world's foremost conspiracy theorists doesn't want people to get the wrong impression when they Google his name. "Mind Control: The Ultimate Terror"? Fine. "New (Reptilian) World Order"? Hey, he wrote that article. But calling him an "American loon"? That's cause for a libel suit, according to Uri...
Will the University of Miami finally learn its NCAA fate tomorrow? The Miami Herald tweets that according to a source the team's sanctions could come down tomorrow...

If you took note of a young Dwayne Johnson, playing football for the University of Miami back in the '90s, you probably didn't imagine he'd go on to become one of the most valuable assets a high-profile movie could hope to cast. Hell, even during the glory days of The...
Here's where I write about how hard it is to draw up a 10-best list at the end of the year. Except it isn't: I think of drawing up a list as an honor and a necessity, a way of putting 12 months of moviegoing into some sort of perspective...
As awards season draws nearer and best-of-the-year lists keep rolling in, there's only one thing left to do: get excited about what comes next. Here's ten films you won't want to miss in 2014...
You can't possibly attend all of the flashy, A-list-celebrity-frequented bashes that go down in Miami every weekend. That's why the Magic City throws so many of 'em almost every night of the week. Just check out the six best parties to crash on South Beach. See also: Five Best Concerts...
Two thousand words is too many for a Wednesday morning, but too few to do the new Pérez Art Museum Miami justice. So we'll put it simply: the new Herzog and De Meuron (HDM) edifice on museum island is, no exaggeration, exquisite. Naturally, in this story, we'll be describing the...
The goat doesn't want to wear the undies. Can't blame him. Plus-sized, bleached-white tighty whities are not very chic. A tall man, blue shirt tucked neatly into his jeans, holds up the animal's brown-and-white-mottled back end, while his teammate, a squat woman, tries to work the underpants on. The goat's...

Only in Florida. Every week, so many Americans mutter those words while marveling at the latest insanity to come from our state that Tallahassee really ought to put the phrase on license plates. At Miami New Times, at least a third of our work is done by those crazies. Although...

When you combine the traditional percussive powers of Maracatu Nação Estrela Brilhante with the rhythmic vibes of Nation Beat, the result is a mega carnival that'll keep you dancing the samba til o nascer do sol. "It's an epic experience," brags Scott Kettner of Nation Beat and Maracatu New York...
Matias Aguayo is not your garden variety EDM artist. Not by a long stretch. In many ways, the Chilean-born producer is Latin America's answer to UK sonic mad scientist Matthew Herbert, approaching the formulaic house and techno genres with an irreverent spirit of experimentation and unconventional studio techniques. Mirroring Herbert's...
When Dr. Norman Block got the news in May 2012, he was incredulous. The Nobel Laureate he'd brought to the University of Miami to work on cancer research — a groundbreaking drug researcher named Andrew Schally — would lose $150,000 in funding. Schally would have to lay off two researchers...

At first blush, brooding, bad boy film icon James Dean and ridiculous '90s-era rapper and reality TV star Flavor Flav may seem to have little in common. But look through the eyes of artist Pete Kirill, and you'll notice that themes of rebellion against authority and pop culture influence run...
Last year, popular art themes during Art Basel included Warhol, guns, Warhol, street art, and more Warhol. But if the UNTITLED art fair is an indicator of this year's offerings, 2013 will be the year of new technology. (And also B-list celebrities. Hello, Val Kilmer!) UNTITLED opened last night with...
Well, we've found it. The worst professionally written piece about the Dolphins' Richie Incognito mess has been identified. Congratulations to the OC Register's "libertarian humorist" Ron Hart for penning a column that is all at once racist, sexist, completely stupid, and manages to both wonder if Jonathan Martin is gay...
