The Fleur-De-Lis, which is actually a Lily, symbolizes purity. The Lily is said to have grown from the tears of Eve as she left the Garden of Eden. One long held belief is that the Virgin Mary presented the third century king of the Franks a bouquet of Lilies at his baptism. The French Church later used this gift as proof of the succession of French Monarchs.
It is our wish that our Venetian Garden bouquet will make whoever receives them feel royal whenever they experience the rich fragrance and majestic beauty of this popular flower.
Caution: Lilies may be harmful to cats if ingested. Please consult your veterinarian for more information.

The world's biggest mafia game
Omerta is a text-based massive multiplayer RPG game, based on the stories about the legendary don Barafranca..
Set in the 1930's gangster and mafia world, the game is all about status, money and respect. Players get rank points by doing crimes, stealing cars and busting friends out of jail. You can even run you're own organised crime ring, robbing local banks and holding up cars on quiet roads. As you delve deeper into the dark gangster world, many players find other business opportunities, such as gambling clubs, reselling booze and even drug dealing.New game players choose to start in a city of either USA or Italy, where the mafia has got a large influence even now. One of the more gambling cities, Las Vegas, allows gangsters to try their luck with a wide range of slot machines, black-jack games, and even roulette tables.In a deadly and sometimes cruel world it helps to have allies, both for protection and shared wealth. Many game players have set up families, who will look out for eachother until the very end. Families are rich, powerful and can run whole neighbourhoods of a city, so you may want to keep on their good side. As you would imagine, they aren't too happy if another player or rival family shoots one of their guys or takes one of their casinos.For those more cautious game players there are other forms of protection, bodyguards, fast getaway vehicles and even bulletproof suits.So think you're up to the challenge young gangster? Join the game, everything is free and if you're good enough, grow strong and most importantly, stay alive, we may just be looking at the next Don Barafranca..

About Omerta
All the dons of importance have come together to show honor to a man. A man who has been of great influence to many, who equals Napoleon in intelligence, and matches Stalin in cruelty; a man who was graceful, when the situation permitted him to be graceful, a man who was merciless, when he needed to be merciless. A man with two personalities. A cold-blooded leader, the 'Capo Di Tutti Capi', Boss of all Bosses, absolute leader of the Italian Mafia.His name is Gianluca Barafranca, better known as Don Barafranca. At the respectable age of 69, after 53 years of hard work to expand the family and enlarge our businesses, he has decided to retreat. Born in Montelepre, raised in Little Italy, New York. He joined the local Capo Regime of Ciavolo, a powerful Capo working for Don Marcelo Tuccini, at the age of 16. Climbing up with vertiginous speed, becoming mobster when he was nearly 18 years old. Like Ciavolo said: "That boy is going to get to high places", so Barafranca went. In a short, but bloody vendetta with the rivalising Gilardino-family, Ciavolo was assassinated and it was Barafranca's duty to take over the Capo Regime. With only 25 years of experience in life, he was the youngest Capo in history. And a promising one. When Tuccini decided to step out and return to Montelepre, Sicilia, to enjoy his last years of life, he gave Barafranca the authority over the Bronx, Brooklyn & Manhattan. As a sign of respect, Barafranca gave his first son the name Marcelo. A year after Marcelo's birth, Claudio was born, and Barafranca was living the good life.Unfortunately, how cruel can life be, Tuccini was murdered 2 years after his retirement, on behalf of Don Clemente, an old rival from Miami. This was the first time Barafranca demonstrated his cold-bloodedness. He waited a few years before revenging Tuccini. He got 3 of his best men, Alessandro Tedesco, Fabio Roveto and Gianni Marinella, to infiltrate into Miami's underground. They became members of the Clemente-family and they came to know him as a warm, nice man. But business is business, and Tedesco, who climbed up to become Capo of Clemente, introduced Barafranca as a possible new connection. After a good conversation and copious dinner in restaurant Lago Maggiore, owned by Clemente, Clemente was found dead in his mansion.As Tedesco had power in Miami, he stayed there to enlarge the power and territory of the Barafranca's. The Don sent Roveto to Boston and Marinella to Philadelphia, where nobody really was in charge. By 1911 Barafranca had absolute power over all three city's. He decided to send Marcelo to Palermo, because he saw Marcelo had a true Mafia-mentality in his eyes, and he had to establish that quality, under supervision of an old friend of Tuccini, Don Bianco. Meanwhile he conquered Las Vegas, Chicago, Baltimore, Detroit, Napoli, Genova & Sicilia, his true homeground. In 1918 he instructed Marcelo to return to New York and set up connections in Houston. The local boss in Houston, Don Giovane, knew about the name and fame of Don Barafranca, and welcomed Marcelo with great respect. Marcelo created a huge distribution center in Houston, to supply all the controlled cities with booze, a lucrative business during Prohibition.After that, Barafranca expanded his empire. He acquired complete control in New York, Detroit, Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Chicago, Las Vegas, Miami, Napoli, Genova, & Sicilia, and controlled parts of Los Angeles, Houston, Seattle, Vancouver, Orlando, San Francisco & Phoenix. He stabilized this with trustable Capo's, and had an easy way of living. But in 1927, a young, brutal Don, called Fregio, tried to take over the south, by bribing judges & FBI agents to arrest the local capo's. Barafrancaa was furious and declared vendetta to the Fregio's. A hard and bloody war, which endured 4 years, left its scars. Claudio Barafranca was killed in a drive-by, which plunged Don Barafranca into mourn. With an intelligent and fast tactic, he ended the war, by killing all the Capo's. 2 of them were brothers of Fregio, one a nephew. After he invited Fregio for a conversation on neutral ground, he blew up the Fregio headquarters. No bodies were found. Don Barafranca proved, again, he was the 'Capo Di Tutti Capi'.Now, Don Barafranca has decided to divide his empire, because Marcelo stepped out after the Fregio vendetta. He is owner of a well-respected bond of banks in Spain, France & Portugal. He left Miami & Baltimore to Tedesco, Roveto acquired charge in Philadelphia & Boston. Marinella, the youngest of his 3 highest rated Capo's, still has the potential to grow. He received parts of Los Angeles, San Francisco, Houston, Seattle, Phoenix & Vancouver. Bianco's son, Paolo Bianco, became the boss of Sicilia, except for Palermo. Another old friend, who provided many men in earlier vendetta's, Don Locatelli, gained control in Napoli & Genova. The parts in Orlando were given to the local Don, Don Terranova, one of the only rivals left.This is leaving 8 cities open. The fields, left open for new promising gangsters like yourself. Barafranca hasn't forgotten how he started, and wants to give new people new chances to conquer. One of those people could be you...Live by the game, die by the game,Omerta

More Information
Need Help Selecting a Racquet? SquashGalaxy Exclusive Racquet Ratings.
If you're unsure about your model or weight...try our DEMO program.
Our favorite Squash wrap grip is the Squash Galaxy Wrap Grip. We've been in the business a long time and always get requests on what our favorite wrap grip is for squash so we went out and made our own! The Squash Galaxy Wrap grip has a smooth and extremely tacky feel and is the appropriate length and size for any squash racquet on the market. It's only $8 to have it installed at the time of purchase.
The Tecnifibre 305 17g string upgrade is recommended because factory string is less playable/durable then the Tecnifibre 305 17g string we suggest.At the time of purchase, the Tecnifibre 305 17g restring upgrade is $21.95. It's normally $36 if you mailed the racquet to us later so you save $14 if you choose the upgrade right away. The tecnifibre will fray before it breaks and that's completely normal so don't worry about it!
If you choose a vibration dampener go with the Python Vibration Dampner (Our favorite), Head Smart Sorb, Head Megasorb, or the BBB (Big Bad Band).
A question we get everyday is "What is Grommet Tape?" It's a piece of tape that goes over the head (bumper) of your racquet. Sometimes you need a restring because of a broken bumper. For an extra buck to add this, it could save you $25-40!!
We recommend an overgrip for players that tend a sweat a lot, want to build up a grip, or wear through wrap grips very often. An overgrip is thinner and wears quicker than re-grips, but can be changed much quicker and easier than a re-grip. We recommend the SquashGalaxy Black Overgrip or SquashGalaxy White Overgrip, but for those looking for the best sweat absorption, durability, and feel... the Overgrip/Re-grip gives the best combination. Note** when an overgrip is installed, you will not be able to see the re-grip if chose to have it installed.
We get follow up calls/emails everyday thanking us for the upgrades as they really help bring out the performance of the racquet.

Hello, New People to the Treeleaf Sangha,
Please post a little introduction here. Welcome and make yourself at home!
Gassho, Jundo
Hello, New People to the Treeleaf Sangha,
Please post a little introduction here. Welcome and make yourself at home!
Gassho, Jundo
Hey Al,
Welcome to Treeleaf!
Hello all!
I found the main Treeleaf site some months ago when looking for an online meditation timer. I'm currently in grad school and in grad student housing where I can't burn incense and found the graphic format, the chanting, and everything about the online zendo/timer at this site to be elegant, comforting, and useful. I finally just in the past few days thought I'd explore some of the rest of the site. I haven't yet watched the talks but expect I will soon. The main thing that's struck me about the site is the honest and heartfelt quality of it and the people who come to it. I look forward to engaging in many of the ongoing discussions here, and perhaps starting some threads of my own.
About me: I'm currently in grad school for social work in New York City and will be a quarter-century old in a few weeks. I first became interested in spirituality and Buddhism in high school, but encountered meditation (in yoga classes I took) before I encountered Buddhism. Over time, as I entered college, my interest and curiosity grew to the point where I determined to begin a daily meditation practice in 2003. I bought my first and only zafu and zabuton set that year and have been sitting regularly (with occasional lapses) since. I have participated in several sanghas, as I have moved around a lot geographically (went to undergrad in California), but the majority of my sangha experience has been within the White Plum / Maezumi lineage. I have also participated within this (Nishijima) lineage via sits with Brad Warner, but I've ultimately become somewhat disillusioned with him. I've done a handful of sesshin and have found them extremely valuable experiences and hope to do more in the future. Did a week-long solitary retreat last summer that was also very powerful.
Right now, I'm in the midst of something of a "spiritual crisis," though "crisis" may be too strong a term. I was really excited about being in New York because of the proximity I would have to sangha. But I've slowly become disillusioned too with my experiences with Fire Lotus Temple here. And not because of anything about the teacher, lineage, ideas, etc.--I find the talks and the atmosphere for zazen there very useful--but because I am really hungry to find spiritual community and fellowship and just did not find it there. Don't know if it's something "fault-able" to anyone, but I felt and continue to feel alienated there, and am currently too disappointed to "try again" with another group/sangha, especially since I like the teacher and lineage. I keep going back, and it may "click" eventually in terms of me finding the support and connection I'm looking for there, but I'm not expecting it to happen.
I also have been going through something of a "crisis of faith" with Buddhism as a whole. I have been devoted to Buddhist study and practice for years now and it has been a central part of my life, and it has been very painful to feel my faith and dedication slip away. I am not any less dedicated to the practice of zazen, but I now question so much of what I used to believe. Buddhism claims to be a vehicle to the "truth," and now I am not sure I can believe that, due to the myriad ways I've seen myself and others (including teachers) turn the tradition into something harmful or dishonest. How do you know you're not just caught up in some group delusion on the part of what Freud would see as neurotic, unbalanced individuals?
I also strongly resist the "anti-worldly" leanings of the religion as a whole, as I have come to firmly believe that delight in the senses is linked to wisdom. I do know from personal experiences that detachment and awareness of the impermanent and illusory nature of sensory stimuli is important, but I believe that any path that dismisses the human experiences of love and pleasure as impure or in need of "overcoming" is wrong-headed. That's one thing that really struck me about this virtual sangha, which also seems to be a reflection of the lineage and of Soto Zen as a whole, that all of life is embraced in a way that does not dismiss the importance of our universal human experiences as social, sensory-based creatures.
It may be hard to discern from the above, but in a lot of ways I feel heartbroken and lost right now. I used to be able to believe that there were people out there who had the "truth" and under whose guidance I could find it for myself. Now I'm not sure I believe that any more. I've seen all too clearly how people use spirituality and religion to entrench their neuroses and encourage those neuroses in others. Because of the power of the confirmation bias, I'm not sure I can believe that even the most eloquent and joyful Buddhist teachers really have access to some "great Truth." Maybe they've just numbed themselves out with a lot of zazen and tacked that onto some projected notions of reality that "feel" like truth.
And I suppose I can accept a good practice that brings peace, calm, and happiness to some extent, but it still feels like a consolation prize in comparison to what I really want, which is to know "the truth." But not only do I despair of finding others who seem to know it, I despair of if it even exists at all. I find great and deep emotional and spiritual satisfaction in the work I am doing in grad school, and can commit to serving others as the best way to live, but I still yearn to know that it is connected somehow to something more than the contingencies of material existence. In other words, I know how I want to live, but often I am not sure what I am living for. I mean, I live for love, but sometimes it is hard when I feel like that love may just be a fleeting feeling unconnected to anything but a bleak existential void and the biological ability to feel and experience it.
One thing I do know is that I cannot do this on my own. I need the support of a community as I struggle through this spiritual desert, this "desert of the Real." And while I continue to look for that in "flesh life," I hope I can at least draw some comfort and support from--and make my own positive contributions to as well--the community here.
Well, that turned into quite a novel, didn't it :lol: That's how it often seems to go with me ops: Anyway, I am glad for this place and look forward to participating in more discussions here.
Hi Stephanie,
Welcome again.
Please hit the "reset" button on all those judgments, assumptions, expectations and past experiences and come sit with us for awhile here at Treeleaf.
Gassho, Jundo - Chief Neurotic and Leader of the Group Delusion
Jundo--if I didn't have the ability to reset those assumptions somewhat, I wouldn't be here! And if I was able to reset them completely,I think I'd have to be enlightened, and I'm not even sure I believe in that :wink:
Either way, sorry that there was so much negativity in my intro post. For some reason, I felt compelled to lay out all of my baggage last night. The morning after, not so sure it was a great idea :lol:
I think I should add though that zazen practice has been a huge positive in my life, as has Buddhist teaching, and continues to be. It's given me a lot of peace and joy and the ability to appreciate and embrace life more fully, even the painful stuff, which is a rare gift.
Thanks for the welcomes, all.
Welcome Stephanie, from another newcomer. I think we have come to the right place.
Thanks to everyone else for my warm welcome.
Hello Harry from Belfast and thanks for the Norn Iron greeting especially the Giant's Causeway photograph (I just live a few miles from it).
I see part of of it (according to today's paper) is due to slide into the sea by 2050 because of global warming. Impermanence!
By the way I play the Irish whistle, (or tinwhistle) - but not as well as you do.
Hi Al! Look forward to hearing from you. Jundo is starting a for beginners set of videos, and today's is truly lovely.
Hi Jenny! Goodness that is the view from your backyard? Welcome.
Stefanie, around here TL promises nothing and delivers. I hope you come to enjoy the place.
Hello and Welcome Jenny.
And Stephanie, that was a mighty heavy first post. I suspect you will fit in nicely...
...I'm not sure you will find anyone here who claims to know the "Great Truth", but more and more I begin to suspect that the "Great Truth" is overated, and the present is underated.
Hey Stephanie (& Jenny, again),
Welcome to Treeleaf!
Thanks for the warm welcomes, everyone. I am heartened and encouraged to see that so many here seem to have had similar experiences. That's one of the mysteries of being a human being, I guess, that knowing that one is not alone in something makes one feel better.
HezB, your Tai Chi saying makes me think of one from Chogyam Trungpa: "Disappointment is the best chariot to use on the path of the dharma."
I'm a regular barrel o'laughs, aren't I? :lol: ops: :roll:
Anyway, also hello to you Jenny--I agree we seem to be in the right place--and other new folks. It's cool to see people from so many locales.
Hey Steph,
Been reading through some of your posts. WOW! Like a hungry tigress on the hunt.
Best of luck to you.
Thanks, Rev! ops:
Sometimes this "hungry tigress" wonders if she's just chasing her own tail...
Our old golden used to chase his own tail, then catch it in his mouth and do somersaults. Looked painful sometimes, but he seemed to enjoy it :lol:
I feel so fortunate to have found this site, and am looking forward to learning and growing with such a diverse group of people. A brief history; Ive been interested in Buddhism since I first started exploring it in high school, I havent actually considered myself as practicing until recently. I attend the local (Soto) Zen Center when I can, and very much enjoy Zazen, Kinhin and the Dharma talks. Since I cant attend regularly, I plan to utilize this site as much as possible and incorporate Zen practice into my daily life.
Thats enough about me
Hello Jenifer,
Welcome Jenifer from a "nearly-new comer". I am also Jennifer but with 2 Ns.
I stumbled onto Treeleaf around the turn of the year and felt immense relief and gratitude upon doing so. I've been practicing meditation since the late 1980s and am most familiar with Zen tradition, though I have some fondness for certain Tibetan teachers and practices; unfortunately, though, I've rarely been near a Buddhist community. I currently live in South Dakota, USA, and to my knowledge am the only practicing Buddhist within hours of this small city. It has been very difficult to maintain practice with neither a local community nor ready access to a teacher. Hence, my reaction upon stumbling onto Treeleaf and Jundo.
Must confess that I've never been one to spend a lot of time communicating in cyberspace, whether by e-mail or forum or whatnot. I spend much of my day composing music and writing prose at computers, so in my free time I would rather get away from (yes, escape!) technology. But I'll do my best to participate in the community.
Thank you, Jundo, for your vision and action to implement it on behalf of folks like myself who are remote. I look forward to learning from/with you, as with the rest of the circle....
Phyllis Cole-Dai (or simply PCD)
ops: i missed some people in here too
Hiya to all the Jen*s in the house and PCD
Welcome PCD! At your invitation I dipped into your wonderful website and think Treeleaf will be enhanced by your presence.
Welcome PCD! And thanks everyone for the warm welcome!
I am new in every sense so please excuse my naïveté at times.
Al, I attend the Nebraska Zen Center Heartland temple when I can. I am a single mother and they do not have accommodations for children. So it is difficult to attend as often as I'd like.
Stephanie, I originally found Treeleaf when I was searching for a meditation timer too! I was just going to create my own, but figured someone else had probably done it, so why reinvent the wheel?
Jenny, it's a little strange to only have one "n" in my name, but apparently my mom wanted me to be a little "different". She just didn't know I'd be THIS different...
Holy Moly, look at all these new folks! Hi everyone. Welcome to the gang. Jundo's the head homie. Make sure you kiss up frequently. You'll see we all do that. :wink:
Wow! Welcome everyone. I'm fairly new too and this really is a great group.
...and...it's another newbie. i heard about treeleaf through the buddhist geeks podcasts a few weeks ago and decided to check it out. i have really enjoyed reading the posts and have learned quite a bit.
i became interested in buddhism in high school when i read a book on zen for a class. i spent the rest of my teen years experimenting with other ideas/religions, but the first noble truth always stuck with me. other philosophies promised rewards in the afterlife, and somehow hearing that life is what it is, both cruel and wonderful, made more sense to me. i found myself being drawn back to zen and the focus on meditation, but my mind just could not sit still back then so i abandoned it.
in my late twenties 4 of my friends died (2 in the same week). one person in particular (my best friend) was the glue that held my social network together: some friends dealt with this by turning to Christianity, others turned to drugs, others left the state...most of us (like myself) medicated with alcohol and kept the party going. Everyone I know is a musician so there were always gigs to go to and the alcohol just flowed for several years, enveloping us all.
by late 2005 i was coming out of my fermented stupor and decided to cut back on the drinking, exercise more and focus again on buddhism. i finally 'got' meditation after years of trying to sit. i could finally 'just sit'! it has really been transformative.
i also read Hardcore Zen by Brad Warner around this time and things just started falling into place for me.
i work and go to school full time, and all of us musicians still play on a regular basis, so i don't have a lot of time to fight the traffic in dallas to get to a center.
i tried going to a tibetan temple here. on my second visit, someone asked the lama a question: if there is no self, how can we be reincarnated? the lama became irritated and literally told the person posing the question to 'go read a book' because the question was 'too basic' for him to answer. so, yeah...that wasn't the place for me.
there is a zen center here as well, but one of the teachers there is a jesuit priest and the other person is trained in theology, so while i have not been there i don't think that is my cup of tea.
so i try to sit daily, usually i can just squeeze in 10 minutes. in between semesters i read, but i feel like i am at a stand still with my practice (not so much the sitting, just obtaining more knowledge about zen) and felt i would benefit from this website.
i promise i am not usually this wordy! just wanted to get this stuff out of the way. and i am glad to be here and read the posts. there is some great stuff here. can't wait to learn more.
No where near enough! :twisted:Originally Posted by TracyF
Welcome again to everyone.
Gassho, Jundo
I am extremely new myself but everyone here is very nice, open, and friendly!
8) Glad to have you join us other newbies Penney. I'll be away from the computer for 2 weeks, so if anyone else joins meantime - consider yourself welcomed! :
Hello everyone. My name is Jim Bastiaanse and I am really looking forward to being a part of this community. I have been practicing for a few years off and on and have decided a more committed approach is necessary. Hopefully this will help me on my path.
Welcome Penny and Jim!
I hope you both enjoy our little forum and find what your looking for.
Cheers and Gassho,
Hello Treeleafers!
Though I am not a particularly new member of this sangha, I just wanted to send a greeting to all you old and new leaves nevertheless. I sit every day, enjoy reading your posts and think it's great that so many new leaves have appeared. I currently don't feel like writing anything, no idea why, after years of splitting hairs I feel I have no questions and answers left in me. That sounds a bit odd, I know, but I mean it in a positive way. I consider myself to be a very happy man.
Even when I am not posting anything, I am sitting as a leaf.

Pentax K-5 IIs maintains the excellence of its sister model the K-5 IIBy Paul Carroll - Friday December 07 2012 Sensor Review
Announced in September 2012 along with the Pentax K-5 II, the Pentax K-5 IIs is an almost identical camera with the exception that its anti-aliasing filter, used on the K-5 II to minimise the unwelcome effect of moiré, has been removed. But does removing the filter impact on the outstanding DxOMark Camera Sensor Ratings achieved by the K-5 II? We dissect the K-5 IIs Camera Sensor Ratings to find out.
So why would you want a DSLR with the anti-aliasing filter removed? Well, the answer is simple. As the filter is applied to the whole image it also reduces sharpness in larger details where moiré wouldn't appear, so with the filter gone greater overall detail can be resolved. Of benefit to photographers desiring superior resolution for highly detailed images and with the only other DSLR without an anti-aliasing filter currently available being the Nikon D800E, Pentax obviously sees an opportunity to exploit this area of the market with the K-5 IIs.

If you have received a traffic ticket in Tennessee, then a Tennessee State Approved Traffic School is a great way to dismiss your traffic ticket and lose the points from your driving records. I Drive Safely is a good choice for Tennessee traffic school online.
The successful completion of a course from one of the approved Tennessee traffic schools may prevent violations from damaging your driving record. While in many cases a course just might get a traffic ticket dismissed, attending traffic school can also enhance your driving knowledge and skill level, and it may increase your overall safety awareness so that you, your family, and other drivers can be safer on the roads.

I always try to make lemonade with whatever lemons I've been given.
So the way the weather was last month, I decided it would be better to do something more productive than dream of snorkeling and wearing flip flops. I went out and purchased a brand new new-generation pair of cross country skis. The second pair in my life.
With my first pair of skis, from 1982, the "boots" were made of canvas and looked like cheap sneakers. My feet froze in the first five minutes. And the bindings only worked sometimes. I still remember one freezing January night in Wappingers Falls trying to get out of them for almost an hour. I finally took my foot out of the ski "boot" and walked through the snow and up three flights of stairs in my socks.
My new skis have real boots. They are bright silver, padded with something amazing, and incredibly warm. And the bindings always work.
These advances in technology reminded me of today's new IBM System x server announcement. The new Intel Xeon 5600-based systems deliver performance, energy efficiency, and increased consolidation opportunities. Outstanding performance can be seen across a wide portfolio of industry standard benchmarks including SPECjbb2005, SPECpower_ssj2008 and SPEC CPU2006. In fact, today IBM posted the first SPECpower benchmark score of more than 3,000 overall ssj_ops/watt.(1)
These new systems enable users to recoup acquisition costs in a very short amount of time. I figure that with all the snow we've had this year and all the skiing I've subsequently been doing, I've certainly done the same.
(1) IBM System x iDataPlex™ dx360 M3 server Performance to Power Ratio of 3,038 overall ssj_ops/watt on the SPECpower_ssj2008 benchmark (dx360 M3 was configured with the Intel® Xeon® Processor X5670 (2.93GHz with 256KB L2 cache per core and 12MB L3 cache per processor—2 chips/12 cores/6 cores per chip), 12GB of memory, one 50GB solid state drive, and IBM J9 Java 6 (using a 1500MB heap), and Microsoft® Windows® Server 2008 R2 Datacenter Edition. Result current as of March 16, 2010, and has been submitted to SPEC® for review. Upon successful review, the result will be posted at www.spec.org.

Your doctor and/or nurse will probably:
1. Check your baby's weight, length, and head circumference and plot the measurements on the growth charts.
2. Ask questions, address concerns, and offer advice about how your baby is:
Feeding. Breast milk or formula is all a baby needs for the first 4–6 months. Iron-fortified cereal or puréed meats can be introduced between 4 and 6 months of age. Talk with your doctor before starting any solids.
Peeing and pooping. Babies this age should have several wet diapers a day and regular bowel movements. Some may poop every day; others may poop every few days. This is normal as long as stools are soft. Let your doctor know if they become hard, dry, or difficult to pass.
Sleeping. At this age, babies sleep about 14 hours a day, with two or three daytime naps. Most babies "sleep through the night" with a stretch of 5 or 6 hours of sleep. Some infants, particularly those who are breastfed, may still wake at night. But most no longer need a middle-of-the-night feeding.
Developing. By 4 months, it's common for many babies to:
There's a wide range of normal and children develop at different rates. Talk to your doctor if you're concerned about your child's development.
3. Perform a physical exam with your baby undressed while you are present. This will include an eye exam, listening to your baby's heart and feeling pulses, checking hips, and paying attention to your baby's movements.
4. Update immunizations. Immunizations can protect infants from serious childhood illnesses, so it's important that your baby receive them on time. Immunization schedules can vary from office to office, so talk to your doctor about what to expect.
Here are some things to keep in mind until your next routine visit at 6 months:
These checkup sheets are consistent with the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP)/Bright Futures guidelines.

Despite repeated notifications, your MyTSA Web site still incorrectly states that all passengers over 18 must present one of certain identity documents. Will TSA correct this, or continue to mislead people?

Showing ID only affects honest people.

Sorry Lynn, but this app would only be of any use if the TSA were of any use. Unfortunately, apart from inconveniencing and harassing, the TSA is useless.

Does the app include telling the user which airports actually follow TSA guidelines and procedures, and which ones are filled with TSA employees who just make up "rules" as they go, like the ones at ATL who deliberately block cameras as seen in this video?

Now, if you would be so kind as to train the front-line TSO's to understand what the "Can I Bring...." portion of the app delivers. Twice now I've been told by the App that I *can* then arrived at the airport and told by TSO's that I *can't*.

The MyTSA application is another great example of wasted taxpayer monies. Your application does not do anything but explain to passengers how they are/will be inconvenienced. Our taxpayer dollars would be better spent on improving the experience at airport checkpoints which is typically distasteful, at best.

That's cool and it's nice to be able to access the airport status/security wait times.
I do feel compelled to point out that the "Can I Bring...?" feature is useless in the sense that what the app tells you is not useful:
After all, even if something is not on the list of prohibited items, the TSO can still say "sorry, nope, this ain't going on the plan" and the "MyTSA" result is meaningless - even if the TSO has, by some chance, heard of the app.
Note, that I'm not saying that such discretion is a bad thing -- some amount is necessary, although how much is enough and whether discretion should be be allowed at all for certain types of items is up to debate.

Pretty easy to win when you have no competition. How many government apps were nominated?
And did the award committee actually use the app? They would have found out that some things that are supposedly OK to bring on the plane will still get turned down by the TSO at the checkpoint.
Bet you didn't tell the committee that.

Granted, I've never used the app ... but I'm guessing that the "Can I Bring ...?" feature is misleading.
After all, TSA says that individual TSOs have the right to deny any passenger the right to bring any item through the checkpoint if they think it's a security risk ... even if it's on the so-called "permitted" list.

My God ... this is all window dressing for a completely corrupt and useless government bureaucracy!
This is what the T.S.A. is focused on instead of dealing with the complaints it receives from 1,000s and 1,000s of travelers!
Instead of finding new, MUCH LESS invasive ways to keep the public safe they spend, probably millions of TAXPAYER dollars to create an APP with no real function.
As Jim Huggins quite accurately pointed out, any individual TSOs have the right to deny any passenger the right to bring any item through the checkpoint if they think it's a security risk ... even if it's on the so-called "permitted" list.
THAT is part of the problem with the T.S.A. ... there are no uniform rules! Agents 1 & 2 see nothing wrong with my nail clippers but Agents 3 & 4 see them as a deadly terrorist weapon.
Since the T.S.A. is so committed to wasting our taxpayer dollars in every meaningless way possible why not provide all agents with a PDA and that APP so I don't have to buy a new lighter or pair of nail clippers EVERY TIME I walk through a "Security" checkpoint.

Would a moderator please actually answer some of these questions people are raising? And answer with simple yes and no instead of government doublespeak?
If the app says I can bring something, does that mean I *can* bring it, or does it mean I might be able to bring it if the TSO feels like it?
Can Bring something: Yes or No
If the answer is no, then shoudn't the app have language on it that specifically says that?

Look, I'm not trying to be a pain to your collective, but this app does no good. I can't access it to prove to a screener that the item is permitted.
TSA needs to get their frontline screeners in compliance, not spending time and tax dollars with apps. I'm tired of arguing, I'm tired of being barked at and I'm tired of the ignorance and stupidity and rude behavior out of your front line that does not even know their own rules.
Seriously, how many times do we have to beg and scream and kick and ask nicely or what to get your front line screeners in line with your own rules??? This app and blog and even the website is just unfair and a poor use of time and resources (i.e., our tax dollars)if when we arrive at the airport, one is going to get screamed at for carrying an items that's allegedly permitted.

He and his supervisor claimed it was OK... I just found out it was not..

it was horrible and embarrassing.

I'm all for helping out the traveling public, but this app is a disservice to the public. Every time the app states an item is okay to travel with and the TSOs on the ground rule differently, you have invited a passenger to abandon personal items that otherwise would have been left at home or packed differently.
Therefore this app increases the likelihood of losing property, and it increases that likelihood specifically for people that are trying to be proactive to not lose their property.

Does this app tell me anything actually important like:
- The number of fully-trained TSOs vs poorly-trained at my nearby airport?
- How many complaints of 'improper procedure' have been filed for my nearby airport?
- If AIT is in use, are the TSO's wearing dosimeters and are they properly trained in the use of the AIT systems? Just because they are TSO's does not mean they can't develop cancer from workplace radiation, and I really don't want to have to pay for inevitable the lawsuits and medical expenses when they do.
- Did the document checker pass their classes, or will they declare my identification invalid?
- Will I have a bad experience because the yutz ahead of me in line thought it would be funny to harrass the TSO about their job?
- How many sleeping TSO's will I see in O'Hare?

I suspect this app was written by contractors - typically talented programmers can make much more working for contractors than for the USG.
Given the TSA's shameful contention that contractors were responsible for the "errors" in radiation detection, why isn't the TSA giving the credit to contractors for this app?

Of course, if the TSA App says that some item is "permitted", and the TSO on duty and the checkpoint says that they're forbidding that item, then the app hasn't helped much. In fact, it's probably made things worse, by raising the expectations of the passengers.
TSA should simply give up talking about "permitted" items. It's abundantly clear that there is no such thing as a "permitted" item. There are items that are always forbidden, and items that are sometimes forbidden. That's it.

Yep wonderful app...and so WHY was I told at one airport that I indeed did NOT have to take out my 10" mini laptop and another one said I had to before it went through?
I thought, as per TSA, laptops that size CAN stay in their cases? that way WHY I bought a small one for travel.
Another waste. Congrats!

What, Bob? No response to the posts here that point out TSOs don't bother following the rules anyway, so 'an app' that displays the rules is useless?
I guess you are off trolling the internet for myths, rumors and other "hot topics" to comment on, rather than paying attention to the quite valid concerns right under your nose. Well, here are some topics you should definitely stay away from:
"Campbell had already cleared security and was approaching the gate when the young agent stopped her, told her to drop her stuff and demanded she stand spread-eagled.
As passers-by gawked, the TSA agent patted Campbell down, touching her breasts, inner thighs and crotch, the freaked-out flier told The Post.
When she protested, the agent said, "You can either continue on flailing about, or you can let me do my job. If you don't, you can't fly.""
You absolutely don't want to tell us why the TSA is now randomly searching people even AFTER they have been through security.
You also don't want to comment on this case:
, in which a Wiccan TSA agent is accused by a co-worker of putting a hex on her, and then fired when she complained about the harassment. Fired, despite the fact she was the victim, and "in the top 10 percent in Albany at catching weapons on the X-ray machine." I mean, hey- the TSA doesn't need employees that can accurately find weapons, Right?
The accuser (who thinks Wiccans can stop the heater in her car from working by supernatural means(really!)) is still employed by the TSA.
"Keeping America Safe... unless someone puts a spell on us."
And, of course, don't mention Texas House Bill 1937 that would make it a criminal offense for anyone, including TSA agents, to grab private regions during a pat-down.

Here's a useful add to the App. A "prove it TSO" function, where we can bring up, on the TSA's own App, whatever reg we feel the TSO has just broken when they harass us. Then you should allow us access to our device when a dispute occurs, so that retraining happens in an immediate fashion.
I have a feeling that wouldn't go over too well, though.

TSOs yelling "freeze" have the same legal authority that the janitor does. Laugh at them, call for a LEO and ask why the TSO tried to unlawfully detain you, which trying to restrict your lawful movements is.
