Lindsey Nolen Remember the basketball game HORSE? Well, on Thursday nights during the National Football League regular season the Jacksonville Jaguars’ offensive line comes together for their own version of the game, “CAT.” They’ve also been known to play a game of Rock Band or two. This is because on Thursdays after practice, Center Brandon Linder typically hosts the OL for a 7 p.m. dinner at his house. Often accompanied by a quarterback (yes, Gardner Minshew has been there) or running back, a food truck will roll up and park in front of Linder’s house. Then, the linemen get to …

Casey Craig A faint fireball slowly reaches into the stratosphere, followed by a long, thin plume of white smoke. When the burning light in the sky went out and the smoke cleared, cheers and applause echoed across the horizon. For Floridians, NASA shuttle launches were a celebrated pasttime statewide: crowds would gather to watch from the launch site in Cape Canaveral to all across the west coast. But, in 2011, the Space Shuttle program folded, ending an era spanning over three decades.  With recent developments, fans of the cosmos may have a new hope: the US launched the newly-independently operating …

Lindsey Nolen Truck driver by day, house music record label owner and beat producer by night. That’s how House of Rose Recordings’ owner Herman “R.E.D.” Orphey spends his days. “We are here, house music is here, and Jacksonville is where it’s at,” Orphey says.
