Back to school means much more than heavy traffic and the green light to visit the mall during the day. It means kids going back to educational institutions ill-equipped for the school year. Imagine going back homework without the latest Blackberry and a cold. Last Friday the City of Miami, Little Haiti Net, Green Family Foundation, Little Haiti Optimist Club, A+ Educational Mapping, Humana, and United For Haiti, Inc. came together to host Little Haiti’s 7th annual Back to School event. At the... Read More →
You’re the young, physically gifted athlete with the game IQ to be a star in the NFL; rendering you cocky with a side of feeling unstoppable. Match that up with an NFL franchise’s number one draft pick and you’re automatically worth $80 million, not bad for a couple of years in college. So the question arises, how much money is too much for an unproven rookie? Let’s begin with the process of how an NFL team evaluates its needs. When rebuilding a team, as seen with St.... Read More →
Last November, the ‘steez invited all of you star-lovin’ astronomy nerds to take to the streets and look upwards to witness one of the most-epic meteor showers of all time; The Leonid Meteor Shower. Those of you that went witnessed some of the shiniest, brightest, most-spectacular meteors streaking across the night skies. It was like a laser-light show of awesome, (Minus the Pink Floyd, sorry all you Miami Planetarium acid-trippers!) brought to you by Mama Nature! Well, today, er, tonight,... Read More →
Last Wednesday, while most of us were either still wasting away at work or in the process of making our escape, something big (read: HUGE) happened in California. At around 2PM on the West Coast, Proposition 8, the law that defined marriage in California as valid only when it’s between a man and a woman, was ruled unconstitutional by a federal court judge. The ruling basically restored a civil right that had finally been recognized for gays and lesbians by a California Supreme Court decision... Read More →
The Metrorail security detail was upped from its usual two to a whopping six security guards in expectation of today’s protest.

Digital cameras, camera phones, flip cams. With so many options and conveniences we’re constantly almost chronically documenting our lives. Picture taking has become commonplace in all facets of our lives. Now, imagine if the bartender swiped your camera last weekend claiming no cameras at the bar or what if the store cashier tried to take a swing at you for taking a picture of them? Blogger and photographer Carlos Miller knows all of this firsthand. He’s been fighting photographic abuse for... Read More →
I love Autolux. That’s a band I can say I’m proud of absolutely loving in every angle. For most people out there, you may not know much about this awesome band, but they take a lot from the old school Sonic Youth noise rock influences into a new modern indie twist. Maybe words can’t describe them so if thats the case, I’ll just throw some videos at you. Autolux -- Turnstile Blues Autolux -- Plantlife Well, here’s the good news and the bad news. The good...

On July 19, 2010 skateboarders (and their supporters) came from near and far to support the Biscayne Skate Park project that is being threatened.

We’re surrounded by persecution and narrow mindedness every day. The narrow minded persecutors are often the first to claim themselves victims and also the first to point fingers. A vocal and some may call, slanderous group of Miami citizens are pointing fingers at those involved in the 24,000 sq. ft. Biscayne Skate Park project on land owned by the city at 150 NE 19th St. The skateboard park has been two years in the making (circa December 2008) and after countless layers of red tape, formulating,...
