“Donald Trump” and “protecting patients’ access to health care” are two phrases that aren't generally associated with each other. But that fact didn't seem to bother the American Cancer Society (ACS), which hosted its fundraiser Rock Palm Beach at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago this past Friday night.
Ever since a whistleblower pointed out that there might be some serious flaws in the DNA analysis performed by the Broward Sheriff’s Office, the crime lab has been in a tailspin. Its leaders are fighting to maintain accreditation and the Broward state attorney’s office has been forced to re-open as many...
Jane Seo blazed across the finish line at last weekend's Fort Lauderdale Half Marathon with a stellar time of 1 hour 21 minutes. The professional New York food blogger's blistering 6:15-per-mile pace earned her second place among the thousands who raced. Seo paraded around the finish line while grinning and gripping a gaudy medal.
By the end of the day, we should know who will be the next president. Key word: should. As we all learned back in 2000, things can end up going very wrong. This time around, though, if we end up in a deadlock thanks to some ballot-related debacle, chances are...
The Dolphins are on the outside looking in at the AFC playoff picture. That's what a humiliating 38-6 loss to the Baltimore Ravens did to a team clinging to postseason hopes. Now, Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals is as close to a must-win as you're going to see in the...

Larry Flynt is, to say the least, one of the more polarizing figures in American entertainment history. The 74-year-old Kentucky native is the founder of the infamous Hustler, a porn magazine that since 1974 has pushed the boundaries of the public’s sensitives. It was his contribution to the porn industry that brought him wealth in the form of a diversified empire that now stretches into casinos, hotels, films, and retail outlets.
A pudgy man in a white lab coat, protective goggles, and a white hardhat ambles down several long rows of potted marijuana plants. An industrial A/C unit cranks frigid air into the capacious grow room, located inside a 300,000-square-foot warehouse just outside Tallahassee, while an array of high-pressure sodium lights...
There's a lot of frustration among Bernie Sanders supporters regarding their presidential options for the general election. In a recent nationwide survey of 461 former Bernie delegates, less than half— 37 percent to be specific— of them said they plan to vote for Hillary Clinton come November 8. Although Sanders is...
Revolution Live should not exist. Both man-made and natural disasters have pummeled the building for more than two decades. Cops, drugs, and shitty ownership have all tried to take it down in its previous incarnations as the Edge and the Chili Pepper. But there it still stands on SW Third Avenue...
With the election just two weeks away, things got weird this week — with one survey showing Green Party candidate Jill Stein surging in South Florida and Donald Trump targeting Fort Lauderdale for what some say will be intimidation at the polls. Trump pushed hard this week on claims that...
Some people might recognize Seal solely from the scars that line his face or the tabloid tales that were the inevitable result of his marriage to and subsequent split from supermodel Heidi Klum. Sadly, though, those things have nothing at all to do with the music he's made over the...

It is designed specifically for furry feline companions. Here, your cat can lounge in spacious suites on mini sofa beds, watch mice scurry across an in-room...
I'm not afraid to admit that I get a kick out of Dan Brown’s Robert Langdon thrillers. Yes, they’re indifferently plotted and predictably written. But I’m a sucker for ludicrous, centuries-spanning conspiracies and indulgent faux-gnosticism. The books serve, if nothing else, as gripping tours through art-world apocrypha, and Brown’s know-it-all...
A Dog’s Purpose, based on the novel by W. Bruce Cameron, combines the philosophical belief that living beings are reborn into a different physical body after biological death with the voiceover narrative technique of Look Who’s Talking. The main character, Dog, dies in multiple wrenching scenes and is subsequently reborn;...
Welcome back, Miami Dolphins; we've been waiting for you. The team's unexpected transformation from a 1-4 team about to lie on a roster grenade into a playoff contender has been magnificent. It's something this town is thirsty for, and it comes at exactly the right time. The comeback started just...
For most, shaved ice is synonymous with snow cones. And while you’re certainly not wrong to equate the two, an injustice occurs when your thoughts end there. As various parts of the globe prove, shaved ice is much more than ice shavings or crushed cubes doused in sweet syrup. Many...
Steve Allen didn’t know what to make of Frank Zappa. The clean-cut young musician was promising to “play the bicycle” on the set of The Steve Allen Show in 1963, spinning the wheels and tapping on the spokes. The result, with the help of a tuneless orchestra behind him and...

It may have been just one regular season game in October against the putrid Orlando Magic, but the Miami Heat's 108-96 win in Wednesday's season opener has both Heat fans and the team itself feeling pretty damn good about themselves. The 2016-17 season promises to be like no other Heat campaign...
Scientific studies have shown that being exposed to large amounts of marijuana smoke in an unventilated room — aka hotboxing — can increase your heart rate while decreasing cognitive skills, but the conditions have to be extreme.
Over the weekend, Donald Trump supporters showed up at early voting sites in West Palm Beach. Videos show them at the West Palm Beach Supervisor of Elections office shouting with bullhorns at voters and breaching the 100-foot electioneering line mandated by Florida law. It got so bad that the Palm...
Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk is a small film burdened with the epic, thanks to both its subject and its setting. Based on Ben Fountain’s 2012 novel, it depicts a day in the life of a young soldier (Joe Alwyn) briefly returning from Iraq to be honored with his squad...
