The Flag Company, Inc. Provides Flagpole and Flagpole Beacon to Extreme Makeover: Home Edition

(PRWEB) August 18, 2011

The Flag Company, Inc. announces the donation of a flag, flagpole and Flagpole Beacon to Extreme Makeover: Home Edition at its build in Fayetteville, North Carolina. It is such an honor to be involved with this particular segment and provide something for the family, said Mike Lawrence, Vice President, who was stationed at nearby Ft. Bragg during his time in the U.S. Army. The segment features a military family.

Everything happened quickly A phone call one afternoon and flag, flagpole and Flagpole Beacon shipping out the next afternoon. Lawrence mentioned Weve done things for several movies in the past, and turnaround timeframes are always tight, which is part of the excitement of doing these projects. As the largest distributor of flags and flagpoles in the Southeast, it obviously helps that flagpoles of all heights are in stock and ready to ship at a moments notice, as in this case.

Donating the Flagpole Beacon seemed especially appropriate because it properly lights the flag at night, following flag regulations. Also, because the light is below the horizontal plane and uses LED bulbs, it is a green product that saves energy and prevents light pollution and light trespass. A new solar version is available as well.

The donation represents our expression of gratitude for service and sacrifice. If these soldiers werent doing their duty, we wouldnt enjoy the freedoms we have. The Flag Company, Inc. is very proud to be part of this segment, added Mike Lawrence. The shows air date will be in October.

The Flag Company, Inc. Adds another Film Credit to Its Resume

(PRWEB) August 19, 2011

Civil war movies, comedies and drama The Flag Company, Inc. has provided movie props of all kinds for all kinds of films. Our first order was for some pennants that were used in a scene at a used car lot, remembers Mike Lawrence, Vice President. We couldnt wait to see the movie and look for our pennants.

Sometimes film makers are looking for authentic materials for period pieces. For example, a movie about the civil rights struggle required a flag from that era with the correct number of stars and fabric. Since nylon was not in use at that time and since cotton flags are not in use now, especially with the historically correct number of stars, a polyester historical flag was used. It photographed like cotton without the shine of nylon. Knowing what to suggest as an alternative for set decoration is just as important as having the props the movie company is asking for, particularly when they need it right now, says Lawrence.

Last minute and need yesterday are normal in film-making and The Flag Company, Inc. has in stock such a wide variety of products from all kinds (state, military and international, etc.) and sizes (toothpicks to 20x30) of flags and flag-related items that they can provide or make just about whatever is needed to make the movie set more realistic.

You can be sure if you order a flag or flagpole for set decoration from The Flag Company, Inc., you will sell a few movie tickets as well.

Dr. Alfred A. Bove, M.D. Joins Health Station Networks, Inc. as Chief Medical Officer

New York, NY (PRWEB) May 19, 2011

Alfred A. Bove, M.D., Ph.D., M.A.C.C., has joined Health Station Networks, Inc., (HSNI) as the chief medical officer, it was announced today by Kenneth S. Williams, chairman and CEO of the company. At the outset, Dr. Bove will author a 'white paper' which will act as a guide to the medical and social role that the Company will play over the next three years of its operations, to include the Company's strategic objectives. It will also identify how the largest network of Health Stations will fit into the new Era of Healthcare Reform.

HSNI is owned by a consortium of strategic partners from the health and wellness industry and the digital media industry, and is led by Williams. HSNI has entered into a binding letter of intent to acquire substantially all of the assets of Sentry Health which owns and operates a network of over 20,000 commercial, automated, blood pressure monitors and health stations located in pharmacies, grocery stores, worksites, medical clinics and health clubs in the United States and Canada. These health stations account for 500 million blood pressure and other non-invasive biometric measurements annually. The use of the monitors is free of charge to consumers, with advertising supporting most of this access. HSNI expects to close the acquisition of the Sentry Health assets by no later than the end of May, 2011.

Dr. Bove is the past president of the American College of Cardiology. He received his bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering from Drexel University, and received his M.D. and Ph.D. (Physiology) degrees from Temple University Medical School in Philadelphia. In 1981, he joined the staff of the Mayo Clinic in the Division of Cardiology, and returned to Temple Hospital as the section chief in Cardiology in 1986. His research includes coronary endothelial function, myocardial function in valvular heart disease and heart failure, exercise physiology, diving and hyperbaric medicine, and medical informatics. Dr. Bove has published over 260 original research papers, and is the author of texts on Coronary Disease, Exercise Medicine, and Diving Medicine. He has received numerous awards for his work in cardiovascular medicine and environmental medicine. His military training was devoted to diving and submarine medicine including active duty at the Naval Medical Research Institute. He served two years in the U.S. Navy as an Undersea Medical Officer and served another 31 years in the Navy Reserves, retiring with the rank of Captain. He was a member of a mobile hospital staff in Operation Desert Storm in 1991.

Dr. Bove practices Clinical Cardiology with particular expertise in heart failure and heart transplantation, Undersea Medicine and Sports Medicine. He is board certified in Internal Medicine, Cardiovascular Diseases and Undersea and Hyperbaric Medicine.

In making the announcement, Ken Williams said, Dr. Bove provides HSNI with a unique understanding of the challenges and opportunities facing Healthcare in the U.S. We are about to acquire the largest network of installed blood pressure machines in the world that has started the transition into a richly featured, Internet connected, digital health station network, offering a range of critical biometric tests and tracking capabilities for individual users. His current research involves Internet-based medical information systems for management of chronic heart disease in underserved urban and rural communities. This work has brought improved quality of care in heart failure and hypertension to patients living in underserved communities and we plan to expand upon that on even a broader base for all people at risk.

Dr. Bove added, Our goal for HSNI is to accelerate this transition to the new health monitor platform and to provide more effective health risk assessment and empowerment for individuals and organizations. The sponsorship of the health stations allows prominent companies engaged in the healthcare industry to impart information about meaningful health products and services to a vast user base. This captive audience also provides the enormous and dynamic opportunity for mobile applications and the portability of personal health records that will be subscriber supported. We intend to closely align with our retailer and corporate partners to provide a consumer environment in which individuals can begin to take more control of their own personal health and wellness, and companies can help their employees by providing intervention and coaching solutions utilizing meaningful, real time data and information.
