My daughter is bright, articulate, and ambitious. She is 26 and has worked her way up from an administrative-assistant job to loan officer at a large bank in Miami, and I really believe (okay, maybe I'm biased) that her talents and excellent people skills could take her all the way to the top. Just one problem: She dresses like a streetwalker. I have told her that wearing spike heels, ultra-short skirts, and low-cut blouses to the office will hurt her chances for advancement, but she says this is her style and she is sticking with it. Do you agree that she's making a mistake? If so, will you say so in your column? Maybe she'll listen to you. -Dade County DadTue, 07 Nov 2006 20:36:00 ESThttp://www.cnn.com/2006/TRAVEL/10/05/miami-cityoverview/index.htmlhttp://www.cnn.com/2006/TRAVEL/10/05/miami-cityoverview/index.htmlMiami has come a long way since its heyday as a gaudy symbol of 1980s excess, synonymous with pastel suits, big hair, soft-top sports cars and speedboats.

Once synonymous with a trashy world of drug lords and Latino soap actresses, Miami now demands to be taken seriously as an internationally recognized city of culture. The Design District has been transformed from urban dereliction into a creative hub for artists, designers and trendsetters. Of course, beyond the palm tree-lined fashion shoots and pop videos, Miami is the same city it always was; a continental crossroads where North America meets Latin America, the Caribbean and Europe and a city flavored by generations of immigrants. But if Miami once had a reputation as a place where millionaires retired to blow their spoils in the sunshine, it's now a place wThu, 05 Oct 2006 09:48:00 EDThttp://www.cnn.com/2006/LAW/07/05/miami.terror/index.htmlhttp://www.cnn.com/2006/LAW/07/05/miami.terror/index.htmlA judge Wednesday denied bond for six of the men charged in an alleged Miami-based plot to blow up U.S. buildings.Wed, 05 Jul 2006 18:01:00 EDThttp://www.cnn.com/2006/US/06/23/miami.reax/index.htmlhttp://www.cnn.com/2006/US/06/23/miami.reax/index.htmlFriends and family of the seven men facing federal charges of conspiring to blow up Chicago's Sears Tower said Friday the men were not involved in terrorism.Fri, 23 Jun 2006 18:35:00 EDThttp://www.cnn.com/2006/TRAVEL/06/06/miami.blog/index.htmlhttp://www.cnn.com/2006/TRAVEL/06/06/miami.blog/index.html11 a.m. A typical hot sunny Miami day.
