╤ Flag, Japanese Postal Key Flag

Add caption

╤ ╤ ╤ ╤ ╤

The Japanese Postal symbol consists of a capital letter T with a bar above it.  If you hold down the ALT key and press in order 2-0-9, then let go of the ALT key this symbol will appear.  Although it was not the intention of the programmers to create a Japanese postal symbol, it happened anyways.

The colours of the flag are based upon the colour metric of orange for 2, white for zero, and pink for 9.

Honestly, the code is loaded with serendipity.  There are a bunch of odd ALT codes that made shapes, and ALT 209 just happens look like the Japanese postal code.  Destiny, fate, chance...it is all just a pile of luck?  The post office below in Wakayama Prefecture, which is in the Osaka-Kyoto region.  On a personal note, Wakayama was where I first touched the Pacific Ocean.

← Flag, Left Arrow Flag

The ← Flag is orange and violet.  Violet is coded to 7 and orange is coded to 2; this colour-number code is based upon the order of the rainbow.

→ Flag, The Right Flag

The → Flag is a vertical di-bar of orange and blue.  Reason being blue is coded to 6 and orange is coded to 2, as it is in the order of the rainbow.  Basically that is the number you need to punch in whilst holding down the ALT key to make the 'right' arrow appear.

↓ Flag, The Down Flag

 The ↓ Flag is horizontal bi-bar of orange and cyan.  The colours are based upon the order of the rainbow for the 2nd and 5th colour of the rainbow.  This makes the number 25 which is the ASCII code for down arrow.

↑Flag , The Up Flag

The background colours of the UP flag are orange and green.  Logic being, orange is coded to 2 and green is coded to green.  The colour coding is based upon the order of the rainbow. 

Twin Towers 9/11 Flag

Here is a unique American flag flying at Newark Airport.  Just below the official US flag is a 9/11 memorial flag.  It features the twin towers covered with the US flag.

Fire Hydrant Livery

Gone are the days of the classical red fire hydrant.  Instead, the water public works has assigned certain colours to certain parts of the fire hydrant. The main shaft, center nozzle, side nozzles, and cap can all have different colours.  The different colours clue show the different waters systems to which a nozzle is connected with.

What are your street colours?  We have colours of the nation, state, county, municipality, school district, and even a hydrant colour assignment.  Do you have hydrant pride?

I did find one classical red fire hydrant, but it had a nose ring.  I guess it would have been a great sin against humanity to have a naked red nozzle showing.



By far the most interesting nozzle was a plastic one found in Philadelphia's Airport.  It was on AstroTurf so that service dogs could do their business.  Rather than dispensing water, this hydrant's purpose was to receive water—water from a dog.

However, when little kids were walking by, they were naturally tempted to go play to my puppy pee pee spot!

Seal of US Navy's Base Realignment & Closure

The coat of arms for the US Navy's realignment and closure is a unique device.  It has the standard seal of a rope style.  In the center is a Yin/Yang design where the left side shows a Naval Vessel with an F-14 flying overhead as if at night.  The right side shows a glorious sun rising over a civilian's building next to a tree

‡ Flag, The Deisis Flag

The ‡ Flag is a vertical quad-bar of white, red, yellow, and cyan-blue.  The colours are coded to the colour metric as assigned by the rainbow order.  Red is coded to 1, yellow 3, cyan-blue 5, and white is zero since white light has all the colours.

¾ Flag, The Three Fourths Flag

The ¾ Flag is rect-bar of white, red, pink, and white.  These colours in the background code for the numbers 0-1-9-0, which is based on ASCII rules.  Further these colours are linked to the colour metric that assigns a number to colour based upon the spectrum order.  Red is 1 since it is the first colour of the rainbow.  White is 0 since it is all light known as white light.  Pink is the odd ball since it is coded to 9, because it represents a return a repeat of the cycle, back to white then red.

≡ Flag, Triple Bar Flag or Triple Equals Sign Flag

The ≡ Flag is a triple vertical tri-bar of orange, green and white.  The triple equals sign is yellow since it is the assigned contrast indicator.  This symbol has many meanings and is in transition.  Currently it has become a menu tab on cell phones and web browsers.

This also means Yang in the East.  If they were all broken it'd be Yin.  Just look at the Korean flag.

µ Flag, the Micro Flag

The µ Flag is a tri-bar of orange, yellow, and white.  In the center is a blue Greek letter for Micro.  The colours are based upon the rainbow colour matrix theme.  Essentially the tri-bar colours are reflective of ASCII numbers 2-3-0.  When you hold down the ALT key and code those 3 numbers, a the 'µ' letter will appear.  Further, orange is the second colour of the rainbow, yellow is the third, while white represents zero.  Finally the assigned contrast indicator for yellow is blue.

¡ Flag, Upside Down Exclamation Mark

The Upside Down ¡ Flag is a tri-bar of red-violet-yellow with a yellow ¡ in the middle.  The colours are derived from ASCII's number code which is further coded up with colours of the rainbow—for the background colours.

Σ Flag

The Σ flag is orange and black.  It is based upon the code 228 for this symbol which is translated into the colours orange and black.

® Flag, The Registered Trademark Flag

Run! It's the circled R! ®

It's a pastor, a good-fella'...NO...it's...it's...LAWYER MAN! 


Like the iconic Batman symbol it is warning shot to others that a symbol is protected by Lawyer Man and the League of Semi-Hewmawn Justices.

Unlike the imaginary Superman or Wonder Woman.  Lawyer Man is real.  And he has magical abilities.  He can make all your money disappear with the stroke of his magic pen, or he can confine you to a small room for the rest of your life, and in some cases his magical pen can kill!

This flag is a quad-bar of white, red, violet, and green.  In the upper canton area is the ® symbol of protection.  Any violators beware! Lawyer Man will come to anyone's rescue for the right price!

LAWYER MAN LIVES!

— Flag, The Dash Flag

— Flag, Dash Coded to 0151 Colours with ALT

— Dash is long — 

- Hyphen/Minus is short -

The dash is a symbol used a lot in writing and newspapers.  Yet it does not have its own key.  Why not?  The ASCII code is 0151, and when you put colour metrics this is the flag you get.  Red is coded to one, cyan/blue is coded to 5 and white is coded to zero.  The dash symbol takes center stage.

α & Ω Flags

The α Flag is orange, green and black.  However, the Ω Flag is orange, green, yellow, and blue.  The differences is based upon the numerical code difference between flags. The colour order is based upon rainbow order which is tied to the ASCII colour metrics.

By coincidence both flags have orange in the hoist and green at the fly.

¿ Flag

The ¿ Flag is a tri-bar of red, indigo, and black.  In the middle is an upside down question mark.  If ever had to find that upside key for Spanish Home Work, it is a hidden ALT key.  The code is 1-6-8.  Remember red is coded to 1, indigo is 6, and black is 8. 

With this version of the Original Super Mario, a Spanish filter has been added.  The question marks appear upside down and Mario, or rather Marces must jump on these ¿■ boxes.

© Flag

The © Flag is vertical quad-bar of white, red, indigo, and pink.  Each background colour is coded to number.  In this case, the numbers are 0-1-6-9 which are is ASCII ALT numbers to make this symbol appear.

¥ Flag

The Yen Flag is a tri-bar of red, cyan, and violet.  These colours are coded to ASCII metric colours that are in the order of the rainbow.  In the center is a red Yen symbol; it is read because it is the assigned contrast indicator.

€ Flag

The €€€€Flage

        THE € FLAG     

The flag for the Euro Symbol is a tri-bar of white, red, orange, and black.  In the upper canton area is a black Euro Symbol €.  The colours are coded to numbers of the colour metrics.  Red is 1 since it is the first colour of the rainbow.  Orange is 2 as its 2nd.  However white is coded to 0 while black is coded to 8.  Although black and white are not a part of the rainbow.  White light is the union of all colours, before it is broken up by a visible spectrum.  Black is coded to 8 because it falls after violet the last colour.  Likewise 8 is a symbol for infinity from the certain point of view.  And when you look into the infinite expanse of space it appears black.

By sheer unintended fate, the flag echoes the design of Belgium, which is were the capital of the EU is located, in the city of Brussels.  However that is not yellow in the middle, rather it is orange.

† Flag, Dagger/Cross Flag

†††

A flag for the Dagger/Cross Symbol is vertical tri-bar of white, red, yellow, and green.  In the upper canton area is a black cross.  When you key in 0-1-3-4 while holding down the ALT key you get cross symbol.  The cross is an ancient Roman form of execution.  Of the 10,001 souls that suffered from this execution device, one was chosen to redeem them all.

In a way they spiritual karma of Holy Roman Empire from Asia, to Africa and Europe laid the down the red carpet for a higher calling. For one was chosen, under Emperor Tiberias, that a new and better way of life could arise.

π Flag for July 22nd

Pi finally has colours!  This flag uses the colours orange, violet and black.  The are derived from the order on numbers derived from Isaac Newton's prism experiments.  In this case orange is associated with two since it is the 2nd colour of the spectrum.  Likewise violet is the 7th colour of the visible spectrum.  The π symbol is black because it is the assigned contrast indicator.

This numbers 227 are connected to π via ASCII.  If you hold the ALT key type in 227 then let of the ALT key you get π! Is is based upon the fact that the fraction 22/7ths (22÷7) is approximately ≈ Pi as 3.142857.

Thus another alternate π day is July, 22!  Instead of Ally E., there were two great math people to remember on this date: Gaspard de Pony 1755 and Fredrick Gasbel 1784. Gapard was a Frenchman who mechanized math and separated 'low' ranking calculator people from 'high' minded mathematicians. Fred G. was first person to determine accurate values of the the relative distance of the sun to another star via its parallax, opening up the world beyond the Solarian. A Solarian is any being that lives or was born in our Solar System, whether they are from Moon, Mars, Io, Venus, Mercury, or Artificial Satellite.

ƒ Flag — The Function Flag

The Super Long "f" that is known as the ƒ is an interesting symbol.  It is usually introduced during to is in high school diring trig or calculus class.  This is where the semamtics of formula and equation go beyond normal conversation to a very particular definition. 


Cowboys, Football, Grillin', and Funky-Jacked Up Cars...an American Tradition, or rather an American Funktion.

≥ Flag and ≤ Flag

> ≥ = ≤ <

 The ≥ Flag is orange, green and yellow.  The colours are reflective of the order of the rainbow.  Orange is 2 since most people recognize it as the second colour while green is ordered to 4 as the fourth colour after yellow.   The ≥ symbol is yellow since it is the assigned contrast colour indicator.


The less than flag's third bay is yellow due to this colours position as the 3rd in the spectrum.  As you can see the ≥ flag has a greater size and proportion of orange than the ≤ flag.

Oddly this signs can be confusing on a subconscious level because the ≥ is the Roman Number 4 on its side as IV:  ≥ — ≤ is the Roman Number 6 on its side as VI.  Thus on a level it is saying 4 is greater than while 6 is less than.


IV ≥ VI?  Just think of it this way VI legged animals are usually Greater than by size than VI legged creatures.  Or rather, VI legged bugs are less than VI legged animals by mass.  Eveyone know the alligator or Pac-Man always eats the greater number but this will help you distinguish which mean 'less than' or 'greater than'

≈ Flag, Approximately Flag

The ≈ Flag is a tri-bar of orange, green, and violet.  Reason being, the colours are coded to the order of the rainbow.  Do you see it?  See if you can figure it out for yourself.  But for the yellow ≈ symbol, you can ignore it, because it is the assigned contrast indicator for the colour coded to the number four.

º Flag: The Degrees Flag

The º Flag is a tribar of red, indigo, violet.  Red is coded to 1, indigo is coded to 6, and violet is coded to 7.  The code is based upon the standard order of the rainbow.  The contrast indicator for violet is yellow so the degrees symbol is put here instead of the middle, to show it is not the centered circle key.

Below is the trio of Three Degreesººº.  Did you ever notice that radio only plays pop hits from the 80s, 90s, and, 00s.  At least in Philly they have been playing that same track since 1986!  What about all the cool pop songs from the early 1970s and 1960s!  My gosh there is so much hidden gold.  Love em' but Yaz' gotta give Madonna, Cindy L., U2, and 70s Hard Rock a Break.

Here is lovely song from 1974, and we are finally meeting up in 2019!  Way too long!  DJ on the radio, you failed!

 Also on the video below, you will see that walking your pet in 100º+ weather is bad.

£ Flag

£ Flag in ASCII

 1£  ><)))°>

This £ Flag is a vertical tribar of red, blue, and indigo.  Why?  Because the colours are reflective of the order of the rainbow as established by Issac Newton.  In truth there are nearly an infinite number of colours in the rainbow but the dominant way of looking at white light broken up by a prism is red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet.  Consequently, each number is assigned its corresponding value as determined by this natural law order.  Thus 1, 5, and 6 is the order represented, which is tied to the ASCII code of for the £ key.

Oddly blue is one of those colours whose labels is not quite fixed, much as was the colour orange 1000 years ago.  Previously in ancient England red and orange were one in the same colour.  Today blue/sky blue/cyan/navy blue are in that same position.  Some people know the difference, but in common speech its easy to get them confused.  Cyan/baby blue is the lighter hue of blue after green.  While navy blue/dark blue/indigo is the darker version of blue just before violet.

¢ Flag: The Cents Flag

¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢

Oddly there is no ¢ key on the keyboard.  Why not?  We have a dollar key "$" hiding under the 4 key after all!  The secret to getting the ¢ to appear is to hold the ALT key and then hitting 1, let go, 5, let go, 5, let go while keeping the ALT key down until the ¢ appears. 

Perhaps you heard of 101 Dalmations?  Did you hear of the 155 Delmations of Ancient Rome?   In some weird way it is the land of Ancient Croatia.  In the year 155 BC Mr. Nasica, Scipio defeated more than 101 Illyrians.

Also the word cent is derived from the ancient Roman language of Latin that means 100.

Hopefully, you can see that in 155 BC more than 101 Delmations lost their lives to Rome.  Although most countries had their own denominations at one time, they still carry on the tradition of dividing their currency into 1/100ths..."CENTuries."

As for the flag colours, red represents the number 1 since red is the 1st colour of the rainbow.  Blue/Cyan is coded to 5 since it is the 5th colour of the rainbow.  Coincidentally the contrast indicator for cyan is red so it reflects a connection to the fractional value of unit dollar.   It makes real the expression of not handing over one "One Red ¢." 

± Flag, Plus/Minus Flag ±

Flag for the ± Symbol

The ± Flag is a tri-bar of orange, green, and red.  Using colour metrics, orange is coded to 2 because it is the second colour of the rainbow; green is coded to 4 becuase it is the 4th colour of the rainbow; and red is coded to 1 because it is the 1st colour of the rainbow.  The yellow ± symbol is yellow because it is the assigned contrast indicator for green.

The ± is like the Yin and Yang symbol from the East.

Here is a song that has that transitional 80/90s bop beat!

¼ Flag: The Quarter Flag

¼

Two Bits make a Quarter.  We love to cut things in quarters, like the year and business cycle, day, time, life, sport.  In this case the ¼ Flag is a tribar of red, violet, and orange, because red is coded to one, violet is coded to seven and orange is coded to two.  The order is based upon the colours of the rainbow, red being first so it represents one etc...

This base is based upon ASCII.  When you hold the ALT Key and then press one after another (NOT AT THE SAME TIME) the number 1,7, then 2 and let go of 2 while holding down the ALT Key the  ¼ sign will appear!

½ Flag: The Half-Flag

½

 Apparently ½ way is located on Alternate Route 171?

When you hold the ALT Key and then press 1,7, 1, letting go of the second 1 while still holding the ALT Key, the 1/2 symbol will appear.

The ½ Flag is a tri-bar of red, violet, red with a yellow ½ symbol in the middle.  Red is coded to 1 while violet is coded to 7.  Of the seven primary colours, red is 1st and violet is 7th.  Yellow is the assigned contrast indicator for violet. 

You can make ½ the world happy and ½ the world angry with nearly all important decisions. So in order to make more than ½ happy, here are two songs of two different genres.

÷ Flag: The Division Symbol Flag

÷ ÷ ÷

Long hand division is the ace of arithmetic.  To do this process you need to add, subtract and multiply, especially with big multi-digit numbers.  But why no division key on the standard keyboard?  Is there a dislike of the super, adventure challenge that makes you think deeply?  Division is very scientific kind of thinking, especially with word problems.  The thing is, to have fun and take your time doing long division, those matheletes who go for speed over joy are missing out.  Unfortunately the educational system sucks to joy out of math to get approval from the others.  You can find joy in math from within, ignore what other people think, take your time and savor the difficulty with a long division challenge!


Orange is coded to 2, green is coded to 4, and blue is coded to 6.  Because blue is the 6th colour of the spectrum, green is 4th and orange is 2nd.  Yeah, I went backwards, which is what division kinda' feels like.  It's like traveling backwards in time, so have fun doing it.

⌂ Flag: Where the Heart is—The Home Symbol Flag ⌂

There is no place like ⌂

 ♥⌂♥⌂♥⌂♥

The idea of home has many meanings and many words and many symbols.  One newly created symbol for this mundane yet lovely place that is severely missed with time distance, yet some say it is where the heart is?  Who knows?  In this case the alternate path to home is when you add one hundred and twenty seven to a certain key, at least in the United States.

Also if you live in Apartment 127 or have a street address at 127— your home will have a certain kind of extra home essence to it. 

It's house, pentagon... no it's home plate! 

If you can't feel your heart, leave home and come back 1 year later!

§ Section Symbol Flag

The 21st Alternate Key in the USA code is the double S, or more formally the section symbol that is quite popular in legal documents.  The number 2 is coded to orange and the number 1 is coded to red.  This is based on the order of the rainbow; red is the 1st colour and orange is the second colour.

Sometimes mistaken as a racist SS from the War of Endless Tears, it has several names.  Perhaps the coolest is the Silcrow.  Most people recognize it was the Section Mark or Section Symbol.

So what this means is that blackjack, 21 is also a certain code for a certain kind of black bird—the crow!

♀ Woman Symbol Flag

♀♀♀♀♀♀♀♀♀♀♀♀

 The female symbol is coded to the number 12 with the ALT key.   The background is red and orange to represent 1 & 2.  One is red because red is the first colour of the rainbow, and orange is 2 because orange is the second colour.  Yes, I know that there are an infinite number of tones and colours, but in the general scheme of things the basic seven colours are coded to pattern in the raibnow.

An easy way to remember is that there are twelve moons per year, or 12 months.  Usually the moon is associated with the woman as well.  Capeesh?

♂ Male Symbol Flag: ♂ Flag

 ♂♂♂♂♂♂♂♂♂♂♂♂

The male symbol key is coded to the number 11.  Since red is coded to one, the flag for the Male Code key in ASCII is red.  But there are two male symbols to indicate that the one key must be hit twice for the number 11.  A good way to remember is to think of the 11 Lords that are a leaping in that Christmas song of about a Dozen days?

○ The Circle Flag, ALT+9 ○○○○○○○○○

The Circle Flag is based upon the ALT+9 key stroke.  You can try it now.  Hold down the ALT key and then press 9, and let go of the 9 key and a circle should pop out.  This usually works with ASCII boards only. ○○○○○

Bullet Point Flag •••••••

In the USA there is not bullet point key?  You don't shift, rather you Alt with a number 7.  Thus the seventh colour of the rainbow codes for the bullet point flag.

ALT+1 and ALT+2, Smiley Flags ☺☻

☺Press ALT+1 and you get a ☺

 
The Smiley flag is based upon the ALT+1 Code.  If you press ALT and 1 on an American Key Board you'll get a white smiley face.  The reason the flag is red is because red is coded to 1, because red is the first colour in the rainbow.  Coincidentally, the assigned contrast indicator is white, and ALT+1 codes for the white smiley face. ☺☻

☻Press ALT+2 and you get a☻

A secondary coincidence is that ALT+2 codes for the black smiley.  Orange is the second colour of the rainbow so it gets an orange background.  The main coincidence is that black is the assigned contrast indicator!

No matter the colour of a person, we can all smile.  Keep that smile in your heart!

☺☻

The Ace Flag of ALT+6 ♠♠♠♠

Everyone loves aces! Normally aces are black but for the Ace Flag of the Alternate Key, it is white.  Reason being, due to colour metrics.  Since blue (or dark blue) is the 6th colour of the rainbow, it is coded to the 6 Alternate Key for the Second Standard of the Columbia. Likewise white is the assigned contrast indicator.
