With the holidays approaching, it is time to begin purchasing gifts for family and friends. I encourage you this season to break away from your typical Target purchases and strive to make environmentally-friendly gift purchases. When you add in transportation, paper and packaging waste it increases our holiday environmental impact; so let’s counteract this by making our gifts environmentally conscious and friendly!

It surfaces as anarchy, conflicting.
It attacks as poison, constricting.

Rocko, a Neapolitan mastiff, has recently become a local celebrity in the St. Augustine area after being rescued.

Last year, Zack Thomas Paull traded in his textbooks for camouflage and joined the United States Marine Corps.
After Paull’s unit, the Second Battalion, Ninth Marine Regiment [2/9], finished its training in Parris Island, S.C., the military brass shipped the unit off to Afghanistan. Paull has spent the past 6 months in Marjah, an agricultural district in the Helmand Province.

Do you ever wonder what the black and teal flutter flags are for outside of the Pepsi Plaza in Jacksonville? Those mark the colors of the Jaguars and their tailgating event called Teal Town.

When playing with a group of people for so long, there is a time when a sports teams stops being a team and becomes a family. Senior women’s soccer midfielders Erin Buning and Caleigh Hodgkins can both relate.
Hodgkins has played on the women’s soccer team since she was a freshman but said that she was familiar with the team even before she began attending Flagler.
