How was your Fourth of July?


Instead of wondering when your next vacation is, create a life that you don't have to escape from.  

That is exactly what we intend on doing. Thursday night was unreal. Afrojack preformed a variety of old and a few new songs towards the end of his set. The crowd at Mansion nightclub in Miami was going crazy! Bottles were being popped, dancers were hanging from the ceiling, fire breathers were at every corner and the crowd was simply uncontrollable.  People from all over the nation gathered to watch afrojack. We had the pleasure of meeting many people from all over including Dubia! After shutting down Mansion, we took a quick cat/power nap and was out the door by 1 pm. The Fourth of July pool party the Reliegh Hotel on SoBe was prefect on a hot day. The people were friendly and half naked, the drinks were cold and thanks to the hot bartender endless. We enjoyed the Columbia vs Brazil FIFA2014 game in front to decent tv screen where all soccer fans gathered to see Brazil kick ass. There was some get dj's at this pool party including Michael Woods, Cedric, and Dvbbs. All of which, preformed while everyone was going crazy on the anything goes dance floor. The last two days have been amazing, a true stay-cation. The weekend doesn't end yet, we can't wait to see what is in store for us today and tomorrow.

The LAB, an underground playground for creative entrepreneurs.





Most people don’t think of Miami when they picture clusters of web developers huddling around a computer screen while building the next great social network or internet startup. Places like Palo Alto or Silicon Valley are more likely to come to mind than Miami — but the folks at LAB Miami (400 NW 26th St., Miami) want to change that perception. For the past nine weeks, a group of novice web coders has undergone a grueling transformation into experts of software like HTML, CSS, Ruby On Rails, and JavaScript, all as part of LAB’s WynCode program. The students have also been working on individual projects that are ready to be presented to the public. They will do so at an event this Wednesday from 5 to 8 p.m. that is free and open to anyone interested in web development or making potential business connections. A panel of judges made up of local tech leaders will choose the best apps created from the coders, while you get to mix and mingle with some of the brightest minds in the area.
