1. Petit Home Team NEWS
Here we go Red Sox, here we GO! Coach Pepere and I have truly enjoyed coaching this team... they listen, hustle, laugh and are extremely coach-able girls. We have had a really competitive season, going 5-2-1 in the Mooresville Recreation 10U softball league. We have 5 returning players from last years squad and 6 new players. This team is about to make a BOLD statement in the playoffs! Now is the time to earn that trophy....
2. Protect Your Home During Summer Vacation
1. Keep up appearances
Make it look like someone is at home. Have family and friends water plants and pick up the newspapers and door hangers or flyers.
2. Go postal
Don’t let the mail pile up. The United States Postal Service will hold your mail from 3 to 30 days, and it doesn't cost you a thing.
3. On lock
Check all windows and access points. Locking your home makes it less attractive to thieves. Don’t forget the doggie and cat doors.
4. Guard your garage
Turn off your garage door so a thief can't open it with a universal remote.
5. Stay trim
Don't put off mowing the lawn either. Cut the grass before you leave and have it cut while you're gone.
6. Show off, later
Wait until the vacation is over before you head to social media to make your friends jealous. Don't post or allow family members to post your vacation plans on social media. The less information you put out, the less likely it will get to the wrong people.
7. Power up by shutting down
Disconnect the power to some of your electronics, to save you money and remove the worry that left them on by mistake.
8. Eye in the sky
Install a home security system that will text or send alerts when someone moves in front of it, and the National Neighbor Watch program has an interactive video alerting system with professional monitoring to dispatch law enforcement while you are away. It can also be installed by your neighbors by creating a shared "neighborhood system" that can send video alerts on outdoor activity to specific members for review, preventing crime before it happens.

4. Displaying the USA Flag
Displaying the Flag
1. When the flag is displayed over the middle of the street, it should be suspended vertically with the union to the north in an east and west street or to the east in a north and south street.
2. The flag of the United States of America, when it is displayed with another flag against a wall from crossed staffs, should be on the right, the flag's own right [that means the viewer's left --Webmaster], and its staff should be in front of the staff of the other flag.
3. The flag, when flown at half-staff, should be first hoisted to the peak for an instant and then lowered to the half-staff position. The flag should be again raised to the peak before it is lowered for the day. By "half-staff" is meant lowering the flag to one-half the distance between the top and bottom of the staff. Crepe streamers may be affixed to spear heads or flagstaffs in a parade only by order of the President of the United States.
4. When flags of States, cities, or localities, or pennants of societies are flown on the same halyard with the flag of the United States, the latter should always be at the peak. When the flags are flown from adjacent staffs, the flag of the United States should be hoisted first and lowered last. No such flag or pennant may be placed above the flag of the United States or to the right of the flag of the United States (the viewer's left). When the flag is half-masted, both flags are half-masted, with the US flag at the mid-point and the other flag below.
5. When the flag is suspended over a sidewalk from a rope extending from a house to a pole at the edge of the sidewalk, the flag should be hoisted out, union first, from the building.
6. When the flag of the United States is displayed from a staff projecting horizontally or at an angle from the window sill, balcony, or front of a building, the union of the flag should be placed at the peak of the staff unless the flag is at half-staff.
7. When the flag is used to cover a casket, it should be so placed that the union is at the head and over the left shoulder. The flag should not be lowered into the grave or allowed to touch the ground.
8. When the flag is displayed in a manner other than by being flown from a staff, it should be displayed flat, whether indoors or out. When displayed either horizontally or vertically against a wall, the union should be uppermost and to the flag's own right, that is, to the observer's left. When displayed in a window it should be displayed in the same way, that is with the union or blue field to the left of the observer in the street. When festoons, rosettes or drapings are desired, bunting of blue, white and red should be used, but never the flag.
9. That the flag, when carried in a procession with another flag, or flags, should be either on the marching right; that is, the flag's own right, or, if there is a line of other flags, in front of the center of that line.
10. The flag of the United States of America should be at the center and at the highest point of the group when a number of flags of States or localities or pennants of societies are grouped and displayed from staffs.
11. When flags of two or more nations are displayed, they are to be flown from separate staffs of the same height. The flags should be of approximately equal size. International usage forbids the display of the flag of one nation above that of another nation in time of peace. The order of precedence for flags generally is National flags (US first, then others in alphabetical order in English), State (host state first, then others in the order of admission) and territories (Washington DC, Puerto Rico, etc.), Military (Army, Marine Corps, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard), then other.
12. When displayed from a staff in a church or public auditorium on or off a podium, the flag of the United States of America should hold the position of superior prominence, in advance of the audience, and in the position of honor at the clergyman's or speaker's right as he faces the audience. Any other flag so displayed should be placed on the left of the clergyman or speaker (to the right of the audience). Please note that the old guidelines differed from this updated and simplified one.
13. When the flag is displayed on a car, the staff shall be fixed firmly to the chassis or clamped to the right fender.
14. When hung in a window, place the blue union in the upper left, as viewed from the street.
How to Fold the Flag
Fold the flag in half width-wise
Fold the flag in half width-wise again
Fold up a triangle, starting at the striped end ... and repeat ...
... until only the end of the union is exposed.
Then fold down the square into a triangle and tuck inside the folds.
