Do You Know The US Flag History?

Flags Unlimited is a business that since 1985 has manufacturer of all types of flags and banners, offering both wholesale and retail sales. Not only do they sell flags, but I learned some flag history about the US flag.

The current official U.S. flag is a 50 star flag, born of the need for a more practical design to accommodate new states entering into the union. On April 4th, 1818, Congress established the number of stripes at seven red and six white, and provided the addition of one star for each new state. The thirteen stripes represent the original 13 colonies. The 50 star flag has been in use since July 4th, 1960 when Hawaii officially joined the union. In the first years of the Revolutionary War, America fought under many flags. One of these flags, called the Grand Union, flew over George Washington's headquarters near Boston. It was the first American flag to be officially recognized by another country. On November 16th, 1776, the American warship, Andrew Doria, saluted a Dutch fort in the West Indies and was saluted in return. This brought a measure of international recognition to the United Colonies. A flag with thirteen stars and thirteen stripes received its first salute from another country on February 14th, 1778, when French vessels in Quiberon Bay, France, saluted John Paul Jones and his ship, The Ranger. No one positively knows who designed the first Stars and Stripes, or who made the first flag. Soon after the flag was adopted by our new government, Congressman Francis Hopkinson claimed that he had designed it. Some historians believe that Betsy Ross, a Philadelphia seamstress, made the first U.S. flag. On June 14th, 1777, in order to establish an official flag of the new nation, the Continental Congress passed the first Flag Act: "Resolved, that the flag of the thirteen United States be thirteen stripes alternate red and white; that the union be thirteen stars, white in a blue field, representing a new constellation."

Happy Cappy For Baby & Kids

Brought to you by the same trusted company that has eliminated flakes on tens of thousands of scalps in children of all ages - Dr. Eddie’s Happy Cappy Medicated Shampoo. Their newest offering is a pediatrician’s solution for soothing normal skin and dry, itchy, irritated, sensitive skin for children of all ages. Happy Cappy Daily Shampoo & Body Wash is an excellent choice for children with atopic dermatitis which is commonly known as eczema. 1 in 10 children are affected by this condition. This moisturizing cleanser is dermatologist and clinically tested and is free of skin irritants like fragrance, dye, alcohol, sulfates, phthalates, and preservatives known as parabens. In fact, over 95% of the ingredients are of natural plant-based origin. Ingredients were carefully selected for their soothing properties: Oatmeal Extract, Licorice Root Extract, Aloe Vera, Provitamin B5, and Hyaluronic Acid. Happy Cappy is cruelty free and vegan. Happy Cappy complies with pediatric dermatologist recommendations for eczema by being a non-soap cleanser that is hypoallergenic, fragrance free and has a low pH. Non-soap means that they do not use harsh surfactants that strip skin of its natural moisture. Happy Cappy has a low pH (unlike most other soaps) to match the pH of normal skin, which preserves the barrier function, and antimicrobial activity of skin.

Pediatricians regularly recommend adult dandruff shampoos for this condition because they contain an FDA approved active ingredient to control seborrheic dermatitis and dandruff. Until now there was no children’s seborrheic dermatitis shampoo and body wash. Happy Cappy is the first OTC shampoo and body wash made specifically for children of all ages with an FDA approved active ingredient, pyrithione zinc, which has been proven safe and effective for many decades for relief of dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis. It also contains the natural ingredient Licorice Root Extract to help soothe redness behind ears, under armpits, and in neck folds. Happy Cappy’s gentle, fragrance free, dermatologist tested, dye free, alcohol free, paraben free, sulfate free, BPA free formula eliminates flaking while still leaving the skin and hair soft and smooth.

Why Hire a Moving Company?

Why Hire a Moving Company?

Moving to a new home can be both exciting and stressful. Packing, figuring out what to leave or bring and getting a moving truck can be overwhelming for even the most organized person. Hiring Austin moving companies can be helpful in meeting all your moving needs and taking some of the load off you. A good moving company offers a full range of services, whether you're moving a few blocks away or relocating across town.

Planning, Packing and Organizing

Packing is perhaps the most difficult part of moving, especially if you've accumulated a lot of items over the years. Perhaps your basement and attic are filled with lots of junk you just don't know what to do with. A reliable moving company like Greater Austin Movers can help you plan your moving day. Having a company that organizes your items and pack them for you can save you lots of time and stress. As you spend less time worrying about moving, you can spend more time turning your new place into a home.

Storage Services

If you don't want to bring certain items to your new place, but don't want to get rid of them either, you may consider working with a moving company that offers storage solutions. This saves you the trouble of having to look for available storage spaces in your area. Since you'll already be working with a moving company to transport your belongings to your new home, you won't have to look elsewhere for a secure storage unit. It can already be available if you choose a full-service moving company.

Efficiency

Moving to a new home involves heavy lifting and packing bulky items. A professional moving company can take this load off you by doing the heavy lifting and transporting from home to home. Professional movers have also been trained on how to quickly, efficiently and safely move heavy items, place them on a truck and transport them to a new home. Whereas, if you and a few family members or friends moved your things, you might encounter a few problems or complications. Professional movers have the right equipment and resources to get your things transported safely and without damage.

In the beginning, you might think that a professional moving company is more expensive than moving everything yourself. However, you can save money by hiring professional movers because they already have the tools and equipment required for moving at their disposal.

Between Us Guys

Between Us Guys by Joel Fitzpatrick

About The Book:

This easy-to-use, life-changing book for fathers and sons gives readers the tools to have important conversations with boys about life, faith, and being a man. With a conversational and captivating tone, Christian fathers and other caregivers are guided into having gospel-focused conversations with boys ages 6 to 10 about a wide range of topics from social justice and friendships to money, anger, and what it means to be a man. Christian dads are given an incredible opportunity to be one of the primary influences in their children's lives for the gospel. By inviting conversations in every arena of life, fathers pass down the message of Jesus Christ to the next generation. As a youth and family pastor and father to a young boy who's entered into many of these conversations, Joel Fitzpatrick knows it's important not to shy away from difficult subjects. But he also knows dads and other caregivers need help in how to have intentional conversations with boys about God, themselves, and what difference knowing the gospel makes to their everyday life. Fitzpatrick invites fathers to share with their sons how the gospel shapes all aspects of life, including how they treat women, people from other ethnic groups, and much more. Specific, practical help is given to dads through suggested activities, Gods Word, and insightful questions. In a world where television, the internet, social media, and gaming culture have taken away from quality time spent between fathers and sons, Between Us Guys urges readers to lean in to important conversations with the grace and knowledge of Jesus Christ.

About The Author:

Joel Fitzpatrick has served as an ordained minister in the Presbyterian Church in America with a focus on youth and family. He received his MDiv from Westminster Seminary California. Joel lives in Southern California with his wife of nearly twenty years and their two children. He is the coauthor of Mom, Dad....What’s Sex? and contributed chapters to The Sinner and Saints Devotional: 60 Days in the Psalms.
