Today's Historical Moment
... the Wild West wasn't just for men ...
... the Wild West wasn't just for men ...
On this date, August 13, in 1860, Wild West performer Annie Oakley was born in Ohio. Her given birth name was Phoebe Ann Mosey. By age 15 she became known for her amazing shooting skills after beating traveling-show marksman and future husband Frank Butler. Annie Oakley and Frank joined Buffalo Bill's Wild West show in 1885. Annie was an international star attraction for 17 years - performing for royalty and heads of state in Europe.
Today's Slice of Americana
On this date, Aug 13th, in 1995, one of America's greatest baseball players succumbed to liver cancer - Mickey Mantle. Mantle played his entire Major League Baseball career with the New York Yankees as a center fielder and first baseman, from 1951 through 1968. He is regarded by many as the greatest switch hitter in baseball history - a Triple Crown winner and clutch home run hitter in World Series games. [public domain image]
Reminders / Notifications issues with App:
Fellow, Flag Stewards, can anyone help Shawn W. shut-off Flag Steward app notifications on a Samsung 10+? Please, read his request below and fill-in the contact form below if you have a solution:
Hello. I greatly appreciated your app, and thank you for your service. I am writing to inquire about the app not giving me notifications anymore on my phone. I recently changed to a samsung 10+. Not sure if anybody else has the same issues. I have checked all settings throughout my phone and can't seem to find any solution.
This the one area of our nonprofit program, the Flag Steward app, that I'm not proud of - the app notifications. I know the best solution is for folks to be able to personalize the notifications for their state and preferred time of day. As soon as I have the funds to contract a developer to fix the notifications, I will. Until, then, please, know this one-man show, with very limited programming skills is doing the best he can ;)
