"  (Photo by Holly Andres) \u2022 Don&amp;#039;t let the flag touch the ground\u2014which you learned when you were nine. \u2022 Despite what you&amp;#039;ve heard, it&amp;#039;s okay to fly it at night. Just be sure it&amp;#039;s well-lighted, a reminder that the flag hasn&amp;#039;t been forgotten. You know, proof through the night that your flag is still there. \u2022 If you fly Old Glory from a pole, don&amp;#039;t use the flag to complete the loop in the halyard (the length of rope running up the pole). This puts stress on the flag and can damage it. Instead, the halyard should be a complete loop with the flag supported from it. \u2022 If you display the flag on a wall, keep the union (the blue rectangle) in the upper left corner, regardless of the flag&amp;#039;s orientation. Avoid ceilings. \u2022 Don&amp;#039;t fly a U.S. flag in bad weather unless it&amp;#039;s made from synthetic, water-resistant fabric. If it could be damaged by the elements, fold it properly and bring it indoors.  (Illustration by Martin Laksman) "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
