Flying the United States National Flag Ensign
The U.S. Flag ensign is proper for all U.S. yachts, without reservation
This is "Old Glory", with (50) stars and (13) stripes
All boats, when at anchor, fly it from the stern staff, if so equipped, only while occupied
It is flown from the stern staff of powerboats underway on inland waters
If the powerboat has a mast and gaff, the proper display is at the gaff
On a Sportsfisherman, where a stern staff would be in the way of the action, the practice is to fly the ensign from a halyard rigged just behind the tuna tower
The ensign should be flown from the stern staff of all sailboats when under power alone, or at anchor or made fast
On Marconi-rigged sailboats under sail alone, the practice for many years had been to fly the ensign from the leech of the aftermost sail, approximately 2/3 the length of the leech above the clew
This puts it in about the same position it would occupy if the boat were gaff-rigged, and on gaff-rigged sailboats it is proper to fly the ensign from the peak of the aftermost gaff
The advent of the modern high-aspect-ratio rig, with the boom end well inboard of the stern, has made it is possible to fly the ensign from the stern staff of a sailboat underway, and this is now an accepted practice
The ensign should be flown from the stern staff of all sailboats
If an overhanging boom requires that the staff be off center, it should preferably be on the starboard side

The Grand National Roadster Show is turning 60. It seems like only yesterday that it was 50. It does not seem like yesterday that it was just starting out--60 years is a long time.
General Motors and NASA have teamed up to develop Robonaut 2, which will be the first humanlike robot to take up permanent residence on the International Space Station. Known as R2, the 300-pound robot will use its “hands” and “arms” to utilize the tools of the station. It will assist astronauts, which GM says has parallels with helping its workers in factories.

Is that really a new LandCruiser? It is, and Toyota Australia’s senior executive director sales and marketing, David Buttner, said the unveiling of the LandCruiser in Sydney reflected the significant role the LandCruiser has played in Toyota’s dominant position in the Australian market. Stationed on a floating map of Australia, Aussie country singer Lee Kernaghan played for the world premier.
