The contiguous zone is the special international twilight zone where it partly belongs to the world and to another specific nation. In this case these waters are tied to Israel which has protective dominion- and is allowed to marshall police force. By international law continguous zones extend 12 nautical miles out to sea. This coast is on an internal international sea, the Mediterranean Sea, on the west coast of Asia. The contiguous colours of orange, black, and white are used. Since Israel has a unique pattern, its design is conserved, yet the colours are different.

Israel Continguous Zone Flag

Australian Commercial: Gathering of Gods Eating Lamb, Lamb Ad
An Aussie commercial has all the Gods dining together enjoying lamb. The most vexillologically significant item is a person called Ron who is wearing naval type cap. The insignia may be related to Scientology, the details can not be made out. But the persons making this commercial did their homework, it probably is. We don't know for sure if it's supposed to be Ron Hubbard, for sure.
Here we have the powerful Hindu God Ganesha, the son of Shiva and Parvati. His body was made from clay by his mother Parvati, while the elephant head was chosen by his father Shiva. Shiva was introduced to the West in Indiana Jones in the Temple of Doom, when Indy invokes Shiva near the end to save the day. Ganesha is wearing vexillological like garland, which is most likely jasmine flowers.
You can also see Jesus perform a reverse miracle. This commercial is offensive to some yet a riot laugh to others. You just have to see below, to believe it. Perhaps the biggest error is Ganesha eating lamb, this is wrong since he is a vegetarian...oopsy and offensy. Good thing Ganesha is such a compassionate God. But Jesus just steals the show.
In the clip below is the scene where Indy invokes Shiva to activate the crystal rocks, which end up destroying the bad guy whose evil quest for power destroys himself. Once again the prayers to a God end up saving the day while destroying the bad guy, as it was with original Indiana Jones. Instead of the Ark of Judaism we have the Shiva Rocks that help our heroes.

US Flag in Professional Wrestling, G.L.O.W. and Hulk Hogan
Professional Wrestling is a sport and entertainment evenly mixed into one art form. When compared to football and comic books, pro-wrestling is the proverbial middle path that combines the best of both worlds.
Being successful in any of these worlds be it the Professional Athletics, Wrestling Mania, or Comics takes heart, dedication, luck, and talent. Yet some people scorn each world for different reasons. All kingdoms have there own level of competition, heartache, truth, and glory. Evey once and a while a gem of memory is captured in film or paper, that is bigger than itself for all to awe and respect. Nonetheless, each form generates tons of cash for different reasons and can inspire those who take joy from such pleasures, creating a community and sense of family. But like all pleasures too much, can ruin ones life. Likewise there are many snobs who pride themselves on such trivial knowledge, with haughty self-importance turning each form into a virtual fundamentalist religion. Yet there are others who enjoy and know how to spread their joy evenly.
So is Wrestling Mania the middle path between the imaginary comic book world and real life professional world? This diagram would indicate that this is true.
You can see the US flag on the post next to 'READ GLOW MAGAZINE' which was on the air from 1986 until 1990. G.L.O.W. represented Gorgeous, Ladies, Of, Wrestling. It was an all female troop of talented and athletic muses who punched themselves into 1980s pop culture.
The professional wrestling mania of women took on themes of idealized female icons. One wrestler was Lady Godiva, who is sitting on a UK flag. No she is not nude, but did wear a nude coloured body outfit, that was decorated with flowers.

Lunar Twilight 2017-2018
As 2018 starts a new cycle of rotation around our sun, an echo of 2017 still remains. Since the current moon was created on December 19, 2017 its last light will end on January 17th. Consequently when the Sun rests for the day the evenings in a spiritual sense revert back 2017. Since the lunar cycle changes so much Lunar Twilight varies from New Year to New Year.
The Lunar Twilight Candlemast is composed of candles of a various length. All are supposed to be lit each evening. The candles burn out in a specific order. In the example above the shortest candle on left goes out first. By January 17 the last candle is lit upon the first New Moon of 2018, the eve before the first Moon to be revealed in the next year.
This holiday is for all persons of any faith or ultimate reality. It is not a ethnic exclusive holiday. Nor is it overtly religious in nature, requiring certain prayers or procedures. Yet it is a celebration of our understanding of astronomy and our celestial connection to the heavens. It represents added clemency for time, to fix things from yesteryear, to give mercy, say good bye, and appreciate the past.

Council Rock High School Marching Band, London 1992
In 1991 the Council Rock Marching Band was invited to perform in London's New Year's Day Westminster's Parade. In honor of that trip several students from the Original Council Rock (CR North) painted the school's iconic Rock with the UK, Union Jack. It was a signal to the community that the band members were excited for their upcoming trip that included a performance at the Royal Albert Hall.
However tragedy struck the band when a member passed away, Megan Hughes. Megan was a part of the color guard and carried the Pennsylvania state flag. You can see her standing in between the US and UK flag. The lighter blue flag is the UN flag. Megan passed away from an aneurysm in the brain. She was a lovely member of the band and was willing to talk to anyone in the band regardless of their social status.
The high school marching band director at the time was Paul Lineberry, originally from Tennessee. Lineberry provided keen, solid, heartfelt leadership in this time of crisis. And it can be said that 100% of the marching band loved this music teacher. Lineberry was a positive influence on everyone he met.
Megan passed away in her sleep at Kensington Palace Hotel De Vere Gardens, London W8 5AF on December 31st 1991. A welcome banner was created for the students returning from their London trip that took place from December 28, 1991 until January 4, 1992. It was a bittersweet trip, that was a journey no one would forget. As a reminder, these events unfolded in the afterglow and fall of the Soviet Union on Christmas Day 1991. Coincidentally the bands final number was Russian Christmas by Alfred Reed.
Synchronicity of a trip 25 years later from 1992 unto 2017; Buddy Holly watches over Megan and Whitney.

An Amorial Banner for Less Britain - Northern Ireland, Wales, Cornwall, and the Isle of Man
The United Kingdom is typically thought of a union of Scotland and England. However there are other elements that often go overlooked to the outside world. Geographically smaller ancient kingdoms also exist that have their own distinguished culture and language- that being of the Welsh, Manx, and Cornish. Also, in away Northern Ireland is a unique part of the kingdom to itself. Subsequently a Less Britain Armorial or UK Lite banner should be in good order.
The United Kingdom Lite flag is composed of four heraldic banners. In the first quarter is the official arms for Northern Ireland, which is the red hand on the white six pointed star, with crown above. In the second quarter is the arms, or rather legs, for the Isle of Man, with the three legged knight armour. In the third quarter is the arms for Cornwall with fifteen discs arranged in bowling pin style on black. Finally with arms of Wales is in the fourth quarter with the red dragon on green.
The nice thing about this flag is that geography is conserved to some extent, relative to each geographic entity: Cornwall is south of Northern Ireland, the Isle of Man is north of Wales, Isle of Man is north of Cornwall, and Wales is south and east of Northern Ireland.
Likewise the three points of Cornwall reflect the three legs of the Isle of Man. Also the banners fit perfectly to conserve the white, to perfectly contrast the boarders of Wales and Northern Ireland.
So what to do with this flag? Perhaps it could be put to good use as the consort flag of the reigning monarch, either male or female?
