Rock 'n' Roll is dead. At least, that is what the mastermind behind what would become the biggest-selling debut album of all time was told in 1975. And if Tom Scholz had listened to top music executives’ assertions that disco had upended rock, we would live in a world without...

Finishing his morning meal, Alan Parsons is remarkably amiable as he indulges in a chat about the clichés of his native country's indigenous foods: "English muffins don't exist in England at all. They're more like a blueberry muffin over there," he muses before diving into an in-depth talk on his...
Whoa what a time to be alive! The Miami Dolphins came out on Sunday, ripped JJ Watt's arm out of its socket, and proceeded to beat the crap out of the entire Houston Texans franchise over and over with it. The end result was a 44-26 massacre and the Dolphins...
Three-year-old Ashton Bradshaw suffers from cerebral palsy and other developmental issues. She’s wheelchair-bound, can’t sit up without a back brace or go to the bathroom by herself, and is nearly blind. Her care costs thousands of dollars each month, much more than Ashton’s 36-year-old mother, Davia Bradshaw, can afford. It...
When we last left Que Lastima, the band was melting speakers with its debut album, Fever Dreams, inciting riots at music venues across South Florida. The album cracked like a whip, making it tough to guess how they might move forward without retreading former glories. But anyone who's followed Que Lastima's...
It was 1 a.m. Saturday, January 16, when a pair of uniformed men shook Jaiema Pierre awake. The petite 18-year-old nursing major had fallen asleep in a friend's dorm room at the Indian River Towers on Florida Atlantic University's Boca Raton campus. "What year is it?" one of them asked...

Last year, two off-duty cops were involved in a domestic violence dispute when Stephen Degerdon, then a police officer in Coral Springs, violated a court order and entered the home of his estranged wife, a police officer for the city of Davie. When a neighbor called the Broward Sheriff's Office,...

Ahhh, Lake Worth. It's one of Palm Beach County's most — er, shall we say, unique? — municipalities. It would make sense, of course, that a town as colorful as this one has some equally colorful kitchens as well — ones that are so uniquely ElDub that alone makes them eateries...
One of New York's most beloved restaurants is officially becoming a snowbird. Junior's, the iconic Brooklyn restaurant and bakery, is opening a location at Mizner Park in Boca Raton. The restaurant, slated to open September 2016, will take over the former Ruby Tuesday's spot. The 270-seat eatery will offer diners...
Global warming is an inevitable threat. By 2045, sea levels are expected to rise at least a foot and Miami has been called ground zero for global warming. No one's quite sure how the rising foot of water will effect South Florida and the millions of people who live and own...

As John Wilson cooked dinner for his family in March 2010, an eerie silence filled their cozy Plantation home. Usually around 6 p.m. on a school day, the place was bustling. Four kids were asking about dinner or playing videogames. John, a mild-mannered musician with salt-and-pepper hair and rimless glasses,...
The last time we spoke to Corey Harris, things didn’t exactly get off to a promising start. The interview, scheduled for an unrealistic 8 a.m. his time, only got so far as his answering machine. We could have guessed that'd be the result. After all, musicians are not especially known...
It seems fitting that Jamaica's official motto, "Out of many, one people," serves equally well to describe the nation's melting-pot cuisine. This is one culture where you can truly taste the country's history in its food, from jerk chicken and curry goat to stew peas and rum cake. Today, the...
People in more northern climes are probably ROFLMFAOing at us, but Broward County has declared a "cold weather emergency" from Saturday evening until Monday morning, according to a media release from the county. A news release said temps would be in the 40s, while the National Weather Service published...
Fries and caviar. The first is fast-food comfort fare, served and enjoyed in myriad ways, from the passenger seat of your friend's ride after a night out clubbing or as the preferred side to almost any dish. All you need is a bit of ketchup or mayo and they're good...
Much like the days following Thanksgiving, the days following Christmas are not good ones to swim at the beach. The National Weather Service has issued an urgent coastal hazard message, warning of dangerous rip tides. The "high riptide risk" has been issued for Broward and Palm Beach Counties, as well...

Johnny Rawls is a decidedly old-school kind of guy. An award-winning singer, he takes his cues from classic R&B singers like Otis Redding, Solomon Burke, Marvin Gaye, Al Green, and his personal mentor, O.V. Wright, the man he credits with launching his career. “I sing soul,” Rawls insists. “I stand...
The night of May 3, 2014, in the capital of Trinidad and Tobago, federal prosecutor Dana Seetahal sat before a slot machine. Gambling was her favorite form of relaxation and one of her only hobbies. Her law enforcement career had left her little time for much else, and the brainless...
An admirably complex tale of time travel, corporate espionage and high emotions you'll just have to take everyone's word on, Jacob Gentry's science-fiction puzzler Synchronicity is so ambitious — and so canny, on occasion — that you might be willing to forgive its indie infelicities. The acting is iffy, especially...
Palm Beach restaurateur Clay Conley's Grato opened just a few weeks ago, and already people are converging in droves for a taste of the famous chef's Italian-style dishes cooked up in a wood-fired oven. Specifically, that includes several specialty pizzas and a half-dozen handmade pastas. "I've always made my own...
