Flag Day

Flag Day is celebrated in the United States on June 14. It commemorates the adoption of the flag of United States, which was approved by Congress making the "stars and stripes" a national symbol for the United States of America. Flag day is not an official holiday. On june 14, 1937, Pennsylvania became the first state to establish the June 14 Flag Day as legal holiday and it started in the town of Rennerdale.

President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed June 14, 1916, to be a national celebration of the American flag, and the 1949 Congress declared June 14 to be national Flag Day every year.



In the Philippines, Philippine National Flag Day is celebrated on May 28 which commemorates the date when the Philippine flag was first opened and spread out after the Philippine Revolutionary Army defeated the Spanish forces in the Battle of Alapan in 1898.

Algeria vs Slovenia World Cup 2010

Algeria vs Slovenia : This is the third day of the FIFA World Cup 2010. Algeria vs Slovenia World Cup 2010 Group C match will kickoff at 13:30hrs this Sunday June 13, 2010.

The match between the United States and England in the FIFA World Cup-2010 ended in a draw with the score 1-1 and opens the door for Slovenia to gain some control over Group C.


Both teams played aggressive football and really worked hard to score but it was Steven Gerrard of england who scored the first goal of the match. Steven Gerrard shoots and scores under pressure from Ricardo Clark of the United States. It seems that England has everything to do in Group C and if Slovenia has anything to prove then they will be making it as difficult for the England side after Slovenia vs Algeria.
