We didn't hear about any 911 calls Friday in Miami, but it appears either Karrueche Tran or Victor Cruz were in some sort of distress. Chris Brown's ex and the ex-NFL wide receiver were soaking up the sun as they sucked face pool side at the Setai hotel. Just a guess, but we're thinking they are saying, "Who the hell needs Coachella?" They have been dating since December -- possibly even earlier -- but the passion is clearly is there. Dare we say, they both look amazing. … [Read more...] about Karrueche Tran and Victor Cruz Make Out Poolside in Miami

New £690,000 luxury Miami apartments will have a ‘skyport’ on the roof for flying cars
A STUNNING new apartment block in Miami will be kitted out with a "skyport" on the roof for flying cars. The 60-storey luxury flats will feature a sky lounge on the top floor and places for flying taxis to pick up passengers. The 700ft tall Paramount Miami Worldcenter has been redesigned ahead of its completion. It will re-use the rooftop swimming pool and top floor observatory for the "skyport" when the time is right with flying cars slated to be common in the next decade. The incredible pool has been designed with a movable hidden floor that can rise through the water. It takes a matter of minutes to create a 3,000-square-foot landing platform. The terminal, where residents will wait for their airborne rides with the help of a doorman, will be initially used as an observatory. Developer Dan Kodsi said: "You want to be part of the group in the real-estate industry that’s reacting now, not ‘Oh, I wish we had thought of that trend. "The future of transportation is here … [Read more...] about New £690,000 luxury Miami apartments will have a ‘skyport’ on the roof for flying cars
Miami man flees traffic, rat race, commutes on a stand-up paddleboard
Who hasn't dreamed of scrapping the rat race for a simpler way of life where you're not beholden to a job at a desk in a cubicle and spending hours each day stuck in soul-killing traffic? Well, here's a 39-year-old guy who walked the talk. Parker Lake quit his unfulfilling job selling computer systems and walked away from the aggravating daily commute battling rude South Florida drivers and moved to a house on Miami's Little River. He bought a stand-up paddleboard, which he uses to get to and from his two new, part-time jobs — one at a SUP and kayak rental business, the other as a hotel security guard. His daily commutes now involve gliding past manatees, dolphins, herons and pelicans, and underneath busy bridges carrying the daily traffic grind. "I'm not part of that anymore and I feel great," Lake told the Miami Herald. "Drivers look at me with a look of longing, and I know what they're thinking: 'He's probably on vacation. I need a vacation.'" The switch is not without its … [Read more...] about Miami man flees traffic, rat race, commutes on a stand-up paddleboard

ByNikita Stewart April 4, 2018 Since 1851, obituaries in The New York Times have been dominated by white men. With Overlooked , we’re adding the stories of remarkable people. Somewhere between myth, memory and motorcycles, Bessie B. Stringfield was great. In the 1950s, when women were relegated to housework, either in marriage or as domestics, Stringfield was married several times and worked as a maid yet revved and roared through Florida’s palm-tree-lined streets on her Harley-Davidson, earning the unofficial title of “Motorcycle Queen of Miami.” Her legend was big enough to warrant a posthumous induction into the Hall of Fame of the … [Read more...] about Overlooked No More: Bessie B.

Domino’s Pizza Launches Autonomous Delivery in Miami
Ford Launching Self-Driving Vehicle Delivery Program in Miami Ford has now launched a self-driving vehicle pilot delivery program in Miami (Florida) in partnership with Domino’s Pizza — to be followed by the launch there of a program with Postmates as well — the company’s Vice President of Autonomous Vehicles and Electrification, Sherif Marakby, has revealed. The launches comprise part of the company’s plans to develop a revenue-sharing model for such services (fleet management) with its various partners — which include the aforementioned Domino’s Pizza and Postmates, as well as others. You’ll note that Ford’s approach to the initial deployment of self-driving vehicles is quite a bit different from the ones being pursued by GM/Cruise and Waymo/Google (as well as the one by Tesla). It seems Ford is simply working to establish partnerships that will see it offer self-driving vehicle fleet management services, rather than … [Read more...] about Domino’s Pizza Launches Autonomous Delivery in Miami
