I never really understood why anyone liked "designer" activewear until I started going to the gym regularly about a month ago. After I caught the exercise bug, I immediately went out to try and find some cute workout duds to encourage the new habit and prevent me from sweating on every black tank top in my closet.
Athletic Bags
I spent the vast majority of my life as a competitive athlete. In fact, PurseBlog wouldn't exist if it weren't for me being an athlete; Vlad and I met on our college swim team. The day I was done swimming, I was done swimming. Actually I was done working out entirely. I was burned out and ready to veg out on the couch for years.
Recently, I started to get the urge to get back in shape and going to the gym involves picking out a gym bag, which was a great way to entice myself. Right when I spotted the Diane von Furstenberg Sporty Drew python-effect leather tote, it struck my fancy. Easy to use as your city-schlepping bag, this bag will look cute while being practical to carry workout essentials. (more…)
Our winner is LINDA! We have emailed Linda to notify her. Thank you to everyone who participated!
Seeing this tote reminds me that it is time to get back to Yoga. Truly is good for the mind, body, and soul. The hottest yoga brand of clothing and accessories, Beyond Yoga, have released the coolest line of canvas bags that graffiti artist Andre Charles sprayed with selected words. Each version has a word selected by a different A-list celeb. After being asked to complete the sentence "I am beyond…" Rachel Bilson came up with Drama, Jennifer Aniston choose Grateful, Cameron Diaz said Hopeful, Anne Hathaway picked Lucky, Drew Barrymore obviously choose Happy, and Reese Witherspon opted for Blessed. (more…)
Do you know the number one New Year's Resolution? To loose weight/go to the gym/get in shape.
The amount new registrations following the new year at the gym is incredible, yet the amount of people that follow through is slim (no pun intended). And you think I am sitting here, on my couch, typing this because I am the big gym-goer? Nope. I am one of those people that for years now has been swearing to get back into shape and continues to neglect it. It may be because I was once a Division I competitive athlete, or that I am still remembering the 5 am morning practices, or because looking at my left shoulder scars reminds me of the toll my sport took on my body. No matter what, I have an aversion to working out.
This week I am starting to get back into the work out grind. Nothing like I used to, but at least 3 days a week I need to treat my body to something aerobic. The gym does not feel welcoming to me, way too different from what I am used to. But I am open to pilates and yoga classes. I am thinking a new gym bag will be motivation enough to at least go to the classes a few times (though this is merely a lie I tell myself). (more…)
It seems that I will bask in my no-vacation-on-Memorial-Day-LONG-weekend misery by finding some chic beach bags at a great deal. This way I can order a new beach bag and carry it around central Ohio, which makes perfect sense to me and no one else. I will just pretend. But for those of you who are partaking in weekend water fun, or want to get a great summer beach bag for a deal, check out some of these great designer beach-worthy bags at eLuxury (all on sale!)
Emilio Pucci Montalban Print Large Shopper | $339 at eLuxury
Michael Kors Marina Large Grab Bag | $175 at eLuxury
Emilio Pucci Lava Print Large Terry Beach Tote | $409 at eLuxury
Have a great Memorial Day weekend everyone! :grin:
For many, the holy grail of handbags is the Hermes Birkin, a highly coveted, highly sought after, and hard to get bag. Another reason the Birkin is so exclusive is the price. Because let's face it, how many people actually want to spend over $7,000 (or upwards of $140,000 for a diamond encrusted Birkin) for a leather handbag? Granted you may want to, but does your significant other, bank account, etc? For most of us, no. If you are in dire need of getting your hands on a piece of Hermes, there is always the ridiculously overpriced Hermes Beach Bag. Available to order online, the Hermes Beach Bag is available in turquoise, white, yellow, or black and is strictly made of cotton. Fling it on your back and head to the beach in style. Though, I guarantee you will not feel that Hermes aura carrying this bag like you would carrying a Birkin. And even worse is the fact that you would be dishing out $800 on a cotton beach bag merely for the name. Again, if you are swimming in money a-la-Ducktales or you just really are some sort of over-the-top Hermes fanatic, then this bag is for you. If you rather put a nice chunk of money towards a designer leather bag that is much more practical, than join my club. So no worries mom, dad and all other super practical people in my life; I will not be buying this bag anytime soon. But if this is for you, more power to you, buy a Hermes Beach Bag via Hermes for $850.
I had many friends in high school who had a 'family life' class (or something of the sort), where the females had to put on a faux-pregnant belly to see what it will feel like to be pregnant. Along with that was sex education. Being in private Catholic school, I never had to try on that belly because all Catholic girls wait until marriage and do not need sex education ever {insert total sarcasm here}. But if I were in that 'family life' class, I would envision the faux baby bump to resemble the Marc by Marc Jacobs Canvas Backpack. This backpack is exclusive to Barneys New York and is made with natural toned canvas. There are three cargo pockets, which form a great preggy belly, and a removable star sequin detail. This merely reminds me of the scene in 10 Things I Hate About You where Bianca is seen wearing the pregnant suit to remind her of what she will carry for 9 months if she supersedes the Stork bringing a baby. Exclusively a laughable joke via Barneys for $198. Hey, at least it is cheap.
Granted I have not stepped foot in the gym in a while, but when I decide to go back (after my indefinite hiatus) I would love to carry a retro athletic bag. The Lacoste Sailing Boston Satchel embarks on an athletic journey with a retro chocolate and burnt orange color pattern and large body. Granted this bag is touted as a satchel, but I would inevitably use it as my athletic bag to have all my friends laugh at me and my choice of work out bag. Mostly a cotton body but trimmed in leather, the bag features a top zip closure, internal zip pocket, and polyester lining. Dimensions are 12″W x 8″H x 7″D which makes it the perfect athletic bag or carry on if this workout hiatus continues. Buy it through Nordstrom for $220.
One simple word: unimpressed. Chloe Dao was Project Runway Season 2's winner. While on the show her designs were elegant and fit in all the right places for the women that modeled them. Granted The Chloe Bag by Chloe Dao is meant to be used as an overnight bag or carry on, the color and saying looks overly simple and grade-schoolish. The phrase "Carry On" is stitched on the blue canvas bag which was inspired by one of Tim Gunn's popular sayings from the show. Measurements are 17″ wide, 10″ height, 7″ diameter, yet either way I would expect more from Chloe. Via NBC Universal Store for $95.

Oh wow!! He looks so hot! I love how he looks!
Roy Harper AKA SPEEDY is very cool!
Just FYI, the string on the bow would be on the underside of his arm, not on top.
Was this pose hard to do at all? Because it would be MURDER for me OTL
Sometimes things like this is hard to do, and other times it isn't. This time it wasn't as Titan's artstyle is basically broad shapes so his feet up like that basically make me draw less. That and for this image I had a Robin reference photo to look at so it helped.

$client = new \SoapClient($wsdlUrl, array(
'cache_wsdl' => 0, 'exceptions' => true, 'trace' => true));
catch(\Exception $e)
Okay this is what executes the SOAP request. $wsdlUrl holds the WSDLs URL and $parameter keeps an XML document.
And everything works like a charm!
Now I just add few more nodes to the XML document in $parameter and I get a fatal error.
This is not so weird necessarily, but what is weired is the combination of following three observations:
1) exceptions is set to true .... but no Exception is thrown / this was b/c I forgot to place a backslash before Exception in the catch statement.
2) instead an error is logged:
PHP Fatal error: SoapClient::SoapClient():
'uri' option is required in nonWSDL mode in /var/w[...]
3) but the WSDL url is provided and of course valid, as all works again just fine after skipping the adding of the new nodes. they don't affect the wsdl parameter.

Chippenham Park's Mark Robinson (blue) hit a brace to see off Calne Town last weekend
/ Sport
IN ONE of the few local games to survive last weekend's wet weather, Chippenham Park notched up a second successive victory as they took the derby spoils at near neighbours Calne Town.
Mark Robinson gave Dave Ferris' visitors the lead, firing home the rebound after Calne's Jamie Bartlett kept out his penalty kick, before the Park top-scorer found the net again early in the second period.
Ferris' side face another local derby on Wednesday night when they go to Corsham Town whilst Simon Gardner's Lilywhites are in action next weekend with a trip to Ashton & Backwell United.

Hi there,
I've the opportunity to get a Ghost Edt. (PS4) of Destiny from Poland, but the description states that the game itself is in English, while the manual is in Polish.
I wonder: What about the "field manual with 'handwritten' notes" or the "Guardian folio"? Are they in English or in Polish?

38:0989(83)CA - - Treasury, Customs Service, Washington, DC and Northeast Region, Boston, MA and NTEU and NTEU Chapter 133 - - 1990 FLRAdec CA - - v38 p989
[ v38 p989 ]
The decision of the Authority follows:
38 FLRA No. 83
(Charging Parties)
December 14, 1990
Before Chairman McKee and Members Talkin and Armendariz.
I. Statement of the Case
This unfair labor practice case is before the Authority on exceptions filed by the Union to the attached Administrative Law Judge's decision. The Respondent filed an opposition to the Union's exceptions. Additionally, the General Counsel filed cross-exceptions to the Judge's decision.
The complaint alleged that the Respondent violated section 7116(a)(1) and (5) of the Federal Service Labor-Management Relations Statute (the Statute) by failing to negotiate with the Union concerning the impact and implementation of the Respondent's decision to relocate its Northwest Region office. The Judge found that the Respondent's conduct violated the Statute and directed the Respondent to negotiate with the Union, on request.
Pursuant to section 2423.29 of our Rules and Regulations and section 7118 of the Statute, we have reviewed the rulings of the Judge made at the hearing and find that no prejudicial error was committed. We affirm those rulings. Upon consideration of the Judge's decision, and the entire record, we adopt the Judge's findings, conclusions and recommended Order, as modified below.
II. Background
The record indicates that on June 26, 1987, the Respondent notified the Union that the regional office would relocate on July 19, 1987. The Union was requested to, and did, submit proposals on July 8 with regard to the move. The Union also requested that the move be held in abeyance pending completion of negotiations. However, the relocation took place as scheduled. At the unfair labor practice hearing in this matter, the General Counsel and the Respondent stipulated that the move was accomplished on July 19, 1987 "because of an overriding exigency which existed at that time." Transcript of Proceedings at 15. The parties also stipulated that because of the overriding exigency, negotiations continued after the date of the move.
On July 22, 1987, the Union requested that the parties meet to bargain. The Respondent indicated that it was not prepared to meet at that time. Subsequently, on September 24, 1987, the parties conducted their sole bargaining session. At that time, the Respondent provided the Union with counterproposals, and also indicated agreement with several of the Union's proposals. General Counsel Exhibit 4. The Union then provided counterproposals to the Respondent, in which the Union agreed with several of the Respondent's counterproposals. General Counsel Exhibit 6. The parties agreed to conduct another bargaining session on October 14. That bargaining session was cancelled by the Respondent on October 13.
Following cancellation of the October session, the Union made several requests to resume bargaining with the Respondent. Each time, the Union was advised that the Respondent would notify the Union as to when bargaining could resume. The Respondent never so notified the Union, however. The Union ceased requesting negotiations on December 31, 1987. No attempt was made thereafter by the Respondent to resume bargaining.
The record also reveals that the management representative, with whom the Union had been dealing with regard to the office relocation, was reassigned in November 1987. Other management representatives were assigned labor-management relations responsibilities involving the Union but, as noted above, the Respondent never notified the Union as to when bargaining could resume over the office relocation.
III. Administrative Law Judge's Decision
The Judge found that the Respondent's conduct in failing to resume negotiations with the Union violated the Statute. The Judge stated that the Respondent had a legitimate basis for cancelling the October 14 bargaining session, but that it had made no efforts thereafter to fulfill its statutory bargaining obligations and, instead, "virtually ignored the Union." Judge's Decision at 4. The Judge, rejected, in this regard, the Respondent's assertions that it did not resume negotiations because: (1) management had a heavy workload; (2) the filing of the unfair labor practice charge and issuance of the complaint warranted delay in responding to the Union; (3) the Union evidenced an intention not to resume negotiations by failing to contact management after December 31, 1987; (4) the Union expressed a lack of desire to complete negotiations by originally agreeing to delay negotiations until September 24; and (5) the Respondent was willing to bargain.
To remedy the unfair labor practice, the Judge directed the Respondent to bargain with the Union, on request, concerning the procedures to be observed in relocating the employees as well as appropriate arrangements for employees adversely affected by the relocation. The Judge discussed, but rejected, the Union's request for a retroactive bargaining order. The Judge noted that issues regarding retroactive bargaining orders were then pending before the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, on a petition for rehearing en banc, in National Treasury Employees Union v. FLRA, 856 F.2d 293 (D.C. Cir. 1988) (NTEU).
IV. Positions of the Parties
A. The Union's Exceptions
The Union argues that, consistent with the court's decision in NTEU, the Judge's refusal to grant a retroactive bargaining order is contrary to law. The Union argues that under the Statute, retroactive bargaining orders are the "expected" remedy in refusal to bargain cases. Union's Exceptions at 5. The Union also argues that a prospective bargaining order "is an inadequate method of addressing the effects on unit employees of changes unilaterally implemented by an activity." Id. at 6.
B. The Respondent's Opposition
The Respondent argues that the Judge's prospective bargaining order is not contrary to law and that the Judge properly exercised his discretion in fashioning an appropriate remedy in this case. The Respondent also argues that the Union's reliance on NTEU is misplaced.
C. The General Counsel's Cross-Exceptions
The General Counsel excepts only to that portion of the Judge's decision providing that the Notice should be signed by the Respondent's District Director. The General Counsel contends that the Regional Commissioner of the Respondent's Northeast Region should be required to sign the Notice because the change in working conditions involved the move of the Respondent's Northeast Region office and the bargaining unit employees located there.
V. Analysis and Conclusions
In agreement with the Judge, and in the absence of exceptions, we conclude that the Respondent violated section 7116(a)(1) and (5) of the Statute.
We also agree with the Judge's recommendation of a prospective bargaining remedy. As noted by the Judge, the matter of retroactive bargaining orders, as discussed in NTEU, was then pending on a petition for rehearing en banc. The court's decision en banc subsequently was issued in National Treasury Employees Union v. FLRA, 910 F.2d 964 (D.C. Cir. 1990) (en banc) (NTEU II). The court found, as relevant here, that the Authority has broad discretion to fashion appropriate remedies for unfair labor practices and, with regard to retroactive bargaining orders, the Authority is empowered under section 7118(a)(7) of the Statute to order parties to bargain without also requiring that whatever agreement is reached be given retroactive effect.
In this case, we conclude that a prospective bargaining order is appropriate to remedy the Respondent's violation of the Statute. The record establishes that the parties bargained, to some extent, and reached agreement over various proposals and counterproposals that were offered. As to matters concerning which the parties have not bargained, our remedy would not preclude the parties from giving retroactive effect to any agreement reached. In addition, a prospective bargaining order provides the parties with the flexibility to determine whether, and with regard to which matters, retroactivity best meets their needs. With respect to the latter point, we note that the parties agreed to bargain after the relocation and that additional impact matters affecting bargaining unit employees may have arisen since that time.
Having determined that a prospective bargaining order is appropriate in this case, we nevertheless take this opportunity to address the Judge's statement that, in the Authority's view, "mandatory retroactivity is generally detrimental to the bargaining process." Judge's Decision at 7. Contrary to the Judge's view, we find nothing in previous Authority decisions holding that, as a general matter, retroactive bargaining orders are undesirable. Moreover, to the extent that previous Authority decisions have imposed retroactive bargaining orders in certain categories of cases only, those decisions should not be read as indicating that retroactive bargaining orders may not be appropriate in other cases. It is clear, in this regard, that "Congress quite directly entrusted the Authority, . . . with the responsibility to 'take any remedial action it considers appropriate to carry out the policies" of the Statute. NTEU II, 910 F.2d at 968 (emphasis in original) (citation omitted). Consistent with this responsibility, we will continue to examine, and fashion, remedies in individual cases, including retroactive bargaining orders, appropriate to effectuate the policies and purposes of the Statute. See, for example, Department of Defense Dependents Schools, Mediterranean Region, Madrid, Spain, 38 FLRA No. 66 (1990), slip op. at 5 (Authority ordered "retroactive application where possible in order to fully remedy [r]espondent's unlawful activity.").
Finally, we agree with the General Counsel's unopposed request that the remedial Notice be signed by the Regional Commissioner of the Respondent's Northeast Region, rather than by the District Director. The unlawful conduct occurred at the Northeast Region and involved a refusal to bargain with the Union concerning the relocation as it affected bargaining unit employees located there. In these circumstances, it is consistent with the nature and purposes of the remedial Notice that the Regional Commissioner be designated to sign the Notice. See, for example, Department of the Air Force, Sacramento Air Logistics Center, McClellan Air Force Base, California, 35 FLRA 1230 (1990).
VI. Order
Pursuant to section 2423.29 of the Authority's Rules and Regulations and section 7118 of the Federal Service Labor-Management Relations Statute, the U.S. Customs Service, Washington, D.C., and U.S. Customs Service, Northeast Region, Boston, Massachusetts, shall:
1. Cease and desist from:
(a) Failing and refusing to meet and negotiate with the National Treasury Employees Union and National Treasury Employees Union, Chapter 133, the exclusive bargaining representative of its employees, concerning the procedures which it will observe in exercising its authority to relocate the Northeast Region office and concerning appropriate arrangements for bargaining unit employees adversely affected by the relocation.
(b) In any like or related manner, interfering with, restraining, or coercing employees in the exercise of their rights assured by the Federal Service Labor-Management Relations Statute.
2. Take the following affirmative action in order to effectuate the purposes and policies of the Federal Service Labor-Management Relations Statute:
(a) Upon request, negotiate in good faith with the National Treasury Employees Union and National Treasury Employees Union, Chapter 133, the exclusive bargaining representative of its employees, concerning the procedures it will observe in exercising its authority to relocate the Northeast Region office and concerning appropriate arrangements for employees adversely affected by the relocation.
(b) Post at the Northeast Region Office in Boston, Massachusetts, copies of the attached Notice on forms to be furnished by the Federal Labor Relations Authority. Upon receipt of such forms, they shall be signed by the Regional Commissioner, and shall be posted and maintained for 60 consecutive days thereafter, in conspicuous places, including all bulletin boards and other places where notices to employees are customarily posted. Reasonable steps shall be taken to ensure that such Notices are not altered, defaced, or

The Iraqis, who know better than anyone about what's going on in their country, are more optimistic about winning the war for democracy than the Americans. Marines with their lives on the line are considerably more faithful to the cause than the politicians in Washington.
The polls show Americans turning against the war, with the media chorus eager to sing the siren call to the troops. President Bush, speaking to the Class of '05 at the U.S. Naval Academy, and Sen. Joe Lieberman, the Connecticut Democrat who wrote an important op-ed in The Wall Street Journal reporting on his fourth visit to Iraq, delivered a one-two punch that ought to knock some sense into the heads of Americans who have "gone wobbly."
"While U.S. public opinion polls show serious declines in support for the war and increasing pessimism about how it will end, polls conducted by Iraqis for Iraqi universities show increasing optimism," the senator wrote. "Two-thirds say they are better off than they were under Saddam [Hussein], and a resounding 82 percent are confident their lives in Iraq will be better a year from now than they are today."
Critics of the war might think these Iraqis are smoking something besides water in their pipes, but the Iraqis have suffered, and the critics haven't. The Iraqis can see what is not so visible from afar, the flowering of democracy from the seeds we planted in a garden of evil. The Iraqis didn't start the war, but they're in it, and they understand that someone will win it, and it had better be the small-d democrats.
We were spoiled by the facile symbolism of the toppling of Saddam Hussein, both of the statue and the man. The president describes mistakes he made at the beginning of the war but counsels patience with clarity. He asks Americans to visit whitehouse.gov, where a document called "National Strategy for Victory in Iraq" is posted. It's worth the trip.
The war for Iraq is a war between the 27 million who want to be free and the 10,000 who, for reasons of power, ambition and benighted religion, don't. The opposition is made up of rejectionists, mainly Sunni Muslims who enjoyed a privileged life under Saddam, the Saddamists who held power under Saddam and terrorists who cut off heads in the name of Allah. "The third group is the smallest but the most lethal," says the president. The terrorists include savages from Saudi Arabia, Syria, Iran, Egypt, Sudan, Yemen, Libya and other countries.

My interpretation of the DC Superhero...
You can take the man out of the bat, but you can't take the bat out of the man.
Really well done!
instant fave!
instant fave!
Beautiful work. Very well done.
Lovely work, what did you use to do this?
Thanks a lot MartiniAdam! I use Photoshop! U.
I only have the PS trial, but I'm looking into a way of getting CS6 for free. I just don't have the money. Any methods you know of how to get it for free? (safely that is)
What country you live in? I know in the US is pretty hard to get "free" programs, but here in Mexico (where I live) any guy who knows a bit of computers and programming can basically get you any program you want/need. I got the Photoshop CS5 and the portable CS6 version for the equivalent amount of $5 usd. and since the guy is a friend of mine, he also gave me a bunch of HD movies for free (He installed everything on my computer, I didn´t got any physical copies) but I´ve downloaded some stuff that have worked just fine from a page called "download.com" but for some programs you´ll need a key gen and you need to get that separately, but you can google it, well, at least that´s how I´ve done it here, not sure if it´s the same worldwide (or in your specific country)
Thanks for the offer man, but I have CS6 for free now
No probs man, and I wasn´t offering anything (I´m also a costumer not a seller hehe) just sharing some opinions and a bit of info
Glad you got yourself the CS6, should be awesome!
Glad you got yourself the CS6, should be awesome!
No, sorry. No idea. I work with CS2 and an update couldn't be wrong, but I have to pay around 1200 Euro because I use the Creative Suite and you have to update the complete bunch of programmes (Illustrator, InDesign etc.) . Maybe that's the reason why I'm still happy with my PSD CS2..
Looks very cool!
Amazing work ...
the map in the background seemed odd at first glance but then it fell into context
its a map right?
so beautiful

I love it! Has the animation/comic feel but it's bordering on realism. Very beautiful pic!
Awesome style! Pretty creative way you made the pic
I love the simplicity. Less is definitely more in this piece.
Thanks voodoodad!
Not a problem. Whenever I find myself wanting to do a superhero/villain and find myself lacking inspiration, your gallery is one of the first places I go.
kinda makes me think more black panther than batman idk why
look it's not bad that it reminds me of him, it's just that they are similar in appearance. i think it's the cowl that makes me lean towards panther i meant no offense.
Hey, no problem, swiftsaber. You're right about the similarities and of course you can write down your impression. I'll keep that in mind for the next Batman-illo. Thanks! U.
Noiry cool Bats.
I love the overlapped parts of this one a lot, the composition is great!

The current outlook for steel and steel-making raw materials is mixed. In the short term, global steel production and consumption is forecast to decline because of the global economic downturn.
However, over the medium term, the outlook for steel and steel-making raw materials is positive, being underpinned by China and other emerging economies' ongoing industrialisation.
The Australian Government's $42 billion National Building Plan (Nation Building – Economic Stimulus Plan) was in direct response to the severe global recession to stimulate economic growth in 2009 and 2010. A boost in infrastructure activity will help drive recovery in this sector.
In response to climate change, the creation of buildings and infrastructure that minimises the impact on the environment will drive fundamental changes and investment in emissions abatement programs will be critical in response to the introduction of an Australian emissions trading scheme.
Further consolidation and divestment is expected in the Building Materials sector globally as companies look to raise capital and refocus on core business activity.

Lent has begun! Sign up today for a Lent devotional experience.
The apostle, in this chapter, continues the discourse of the former, concerning mutual forbearance in indifferent things; and so draws towards a conclusion of the epistle. Where such differences of apprehension, and consequently distances of affection, are among Christians, there is need of precept upon precept, line upon line, to allay the heat, and to beget a better temper. The apostle, being desirous to drive the nail home, as a nail in a sure place, follows his blow, unwilling to leave the subject till he has some hopes of prevailing, to which end he orders the cause before them and fills his mouth with the most pressing arguments. We may observe, in this chapter, I. His precepts to them. II. His prayers for them. III. His apology for writing to them. IV. His account of himself and his own affairs. V. His declaration of his purpose to come and see them. VI. His desire of a share in their prayers.

Ladies (and maybe some gentlemen,) I need some help in budgeting. I know the car seat is not only essential to buy (you need a way to take your little one home) but can be costly, but what other items should I add to this list? Any help is appreciated. Thank you in advance!
What are the costly purchases?
Comments (7)
Car seat, dresser or changing table, crib. Diapers (weather you use disposable or cloth) are a pretty high cost.
CD, BF, making my own baby food, and BWing momma.� Some call it crunchy, I call it cheap!

My :-(.)(.)-: are platinum
our big cost items were stroller/travel system, high chair, crib and nursery furniture, and playyard.
Mommy to Ezra Kurt born 09/07/10. Love my little man. :)
If you are on a strict budget, there are a lot of things that you can skip that would otherwise set you back a lot of $$. Remember that all car seats are evaluated by the same agency and must hit a certain point number score to be okay for purchase - so don't feel like you need to buy the $300 one if you can't.
Also, a stroller is really wonderful to have but not something that you MUST have....
Same thing for the changing table - it is nice, but not a MUST have. You can consider getting a play pen with the newborn bassinet at the top; most also include a changer. Babies can stay in those until they are "movers" or (about) 15 pounds, depending on which comes first. That will at least get you through the first few months.
Right before the birth and right after are when you will be spending the most money to get together bottles, diapers, etc... so you don't need to go all out on everything that you don't need right away. Don't feel like you have to have the nursery area "perfect" for a baby that won't be using half that stuff for at least a while.
Check out amazon for good baby deals as well as target (they have some good ads) and babies r us. WalMart scares me a bit because of their recent recalls. I would go with a good, recognizable brand (graco, etc...) because of the reputation they have built vs. an unknown that is only $20 cheaper.
Hope that helps :)

You need a place for the baby to sleep and a car seat . . . really, that's all you would NEED. Beyond that, you can get as crazy or as not crazy as you want.
I would check garage sales, e-bay, craigslist, freecycle like mad if you're worried about expenses.

Our big budget item was our crib. I didn't want something that might be tainted with lead/chemicals or recalled a month after we bought it so we bought a quality one that was handmade in Canada. There are some that are made in the U.S. and Europe as well, where the standards are a bit higher.
We figured we would use it again and it can also convert to a toddler bed so we've gotten a lot of use out of it. Well worth the extra money. It was also on clearance by the time we got around to buying it, which was a major bonus. With the sale price it was 'maybe' $150 more than the cheap Chinese made ones.
You're not in any rush. Shop around and ask the stores when they are planning on having their sales or special promotions.

I am really happy with this product, I really didn't expect much given the price but I was surprised. In 3 weeks of use I noticed my lashes are plushier and darker, they hold a curl better and my mascara goes on and comes off more smoothly. Even a little bare spot on my bottom lash line is filling in a bit. It didn't really do much for length and it is not a night and day difference but it does more than enough to justify repurchase for the price. I couldn't find this anywhere in my city so it was a drugstore.com purchase.

I used this for the first time last night, and instantly had an allergic reaction. My eyes starting stinging and watering like crazy, and every time I blinked, it felt like I had sand in them. Owie, owie owie!
If it were possible, I would give this crap negative points!

Have been using this product for two weeks now. I apply it to my lashes and to my brows right before I go to sleep. It hasn't caused my lashes to grow crazily, but I do notice some difference. At the very least, I think it works well as a conditioner. I'll continue to use it, although I might start using it during the day as well.

WOW! i was so skeptical about this product but i've used it for less than a week and my lashes are already soo much longer! i have short asian lashes and right now my bottom lashes are starting to look the way my top lashes did before!

This stuff works way better than Talika and is so much cheaper! I bought this about a week ago because I accidentally pulled out a few lashes when I was removing my fake lashes... and they have grown back! Not to their full length, but about 2/3 of the way there! Also, I have long but very sparse lashes, and I can see the lash growth accelerator making my lashes fuller! Will definitely repurchase this after I run out!

This product is misleading - it is *not* a "growth accelerator" (i.e., makes your lashes grow faster) but a LASH CONDITIONER. If your eyelashes or eyebrow hairs are sparse or thin, this helps condition the hair so that it is stronger, thus enabling it to grow longer and appear thicker. I know that this has helped my lashes, b/c I lost a chunk of my lashline and have managed to restore the lost lashes to about half the length of my other lashes in about a month. I also noticed that the lashes on my other eye are longer and thicker looking, which is awesome! This was achieved through nightly use of Ardell Lash Growth Accelerator (also put on brows at night) and Nature's Bounty Hair Skin and Nail supplements. I must stress that you need to use this product *every* night or else you won't see results. This is also very difficult to find so I ended up ordering it off drugstore.com.
Age: 36-43

I love this product! I have access to the others at wholesale and still would buy this again and again. I've been using it for almost 3 weeks and have seen a difference in the length of my lashes and added hair on the bald spots on my brows (oops by an Esti). My only complaint would be the mascara wand to apply the product, I would prefer the liner brush like the others. Of course there are those that would say this doesn't work, they are the small minority that it won't work for. It's not a huge investment (less than $4) so it's well worth the effort to try.

I wonder if someone gets paid to put up these reviews or something i am truly starting to feel a bit leary when i read things here.. because i have used this product for 5 months with ABSOLUTELY NO RESULTS... the only result i got from this product is crusty eyes each and every morning and stinging... i have since given up on this and am using Revitalash i had my son take close up shots after the third nite of using Revitalash and will take another shot in a months time and each additional month.. pictures will be the only way to truly tell if there is a difference and not your mind playing tricks with wishful thinking.. i really hoped that this Ardell would have done something but it did not i read so many rave reviews i figured what do i have to lose ..i took pictures before and after i did not see any results personally and then i scrutinized the before and after pictures and that was my final proof this DOES NOT WORK... I think even though this product is dirt cheap it still is not worth the money or time to apply..do yourself a favor and don't waste it using this...the rest of the people giving this rave reviews must work for Ardell or already have long lashes because my sister in law as well as 2 close friends have been using it as well, i bought everyone a bottle the same time and WE all started using it together i also had my son take pictures of them and same thing DOES NOTHING your talking 4 people and all of us same exact thing NOTHING NOTHING NOTHING..... i am a housewife and mother i do not work in the cosmetic business and never want to .. i want to post an honest review and tell you the facts THIS DOES NOT WORK.... i am not just saying this like most people i see on here I WILL Post pictures before and after if REVITALASH WORKS..... i have seen alot of people saying they will do this as well and ive yet to see ONE PERSON post the pictures or they say they will update in so and so amount of time and never see any updates...if REVITALASH does not work i will then try MASSIVE LASH..i have read some things about that and will try it...i am leary of trying the new JAN MARINI i have read that they changed the ingredients and it does not work but i will keep trying them all and probably try Jan Marini last if all the others fail to work...take this review from someone with short thick lashes that is really desperate to find something that will give me some additional length i am not even asking for volume and this didn't give me volume or length..very very disappointed...sorry to be so blunt about a product but i am just being honest.. it is funny how often alot of people gave it a 3 rating and say how it did not work that is something i find hard to understand.. i mean how do you use a product it fails to work yet give it a rating of 3 lipsticks ? Is it me ? Go read all the reviews for yourself......i guess the one good thing i can get from this is anyone that says this works after a week or says it works at all ... i will make sure that any additional products they review i will not take seriously and WILL totally disregard...i just dont get how people are claiming they used it for 1 week and already see results... i mean do you have any idea how slowly eyelashes really grow... uhh i'm guessing NOT.... this is the longest review i have ever written but i just felt compelled to set the record straight....WILL NEVER repurchase and either will my friends we think its an UTTER waste... UPDATE ... i have the pics of the results in my profile ... 7 weeks after testing revitalash.. and yes it sure does work... i may take new pics at 12 weeks and upload as well.. as i hear the length reallly kicks in at the 8 to 12 weeks point ... so .ill wait and see if there is any truth to that.....ill keep ya posted.. so far im very pleased

THis is an AMAZING product! I have been using it for about a month and i notice such a differnece in the length and thickness of my lashes! they look so much better! the bottom lashes are also longer and thicker as well. I have brown eyelashes that are blond on the tips. so mascara is a must. now that my lashes are even longer and fuller, mascara makes an even bigger difference! its amazing! i bought about 5 backups at Harmon for fear i wont be able to find it again!

Postcard from St Lucia: Jade Mountain dreams
Retail therapy: the Sanderson, London
Start 2012 with a bang after a bunk-up in one of London's original boutique hotels, the Sanderson. A shimmy from Oxford Street, she's got all that you need for a glamorous intro or outro to the year. And well, it is the sales: this hotel's neighbourhood is the beating heart of retail.
London – you're looking mighty fine. The Christmas lights are still up and a-dazzling, everyone's groomed and jolly from yuletide celebrations, and we haven't even yet sung Auld Lang Syne. In the run-up to the Olympics, things can only get better, as cheeky Nineties' band D:Ream put it so well. (It was certainly the case for keyboard player, Dr Brian Cox: but let's not get sidetracked by popstars-turned-physicists.) And before we get in a froth about all that's happening in East London in preparation for the August games, let's talk West End Twixmassing…*
Rude as it would be not to roadtest a stay in this sexy boutique hotel first given its sparkle by the original designer digs duo Ian Schrager and Philippe Starck, here is our blueprint for a one-night stay here. After trawling shops from Regent Street to Covent Garden, refuel with a Mad Hatter's Tea Party in the see-and-be-seen bar and covered courtyard. If it's evening, hit the residents-only celebrity-beloved Purple Bar for canapés and cocktails before supper in Suka. There, feast on zingy Malaysian by sharing some small plates. Finally, after a round of billiards amid stained-glass gorgeousness, you should sleep like a baby. For a final round of relaxation, sneak in a spa treatment in celestial Agua in the morning. Who knew sales-shopping could be so calming?
New Year's Eve in Sydney: five fantastic ways to ring in 2012
Oceana Santa Monica: hotel of the week
Finca Cortesín Hotel, Golf & Spa, Spain: the perfect Mr & Mrs getaway
Andalucian tiling, Moorish archways, salvaged castle doors – it's near impossible to believe that Finca Cortesin in the Costa del Sol, was recently built from scratch. Opened in 2009, this modern classic has quickly become a favourite with the discerning luxury traveller – especially for a Mr & Mrs Smith romantic getaway.
Picture the scene: Mr Smith fancies a golfing holiday. Mrs Smith is thinking sunshine and spa treatments. Both have a weakness for exciting wining and dining. What would we prescribe? A long weekend in Finca Cortesin's flower-filled 70-acre enclave of southern Spain. Trust us, we know from experience.
We flew into Marbella on the Costa del Sol, and Finca Cortesin near Estepona was under an hour's drive from the glamorous tourist hotspot. The 67-room property had a timeless charm from the moment we glided into its cobbled courtyard and stepped through the pristine whitewashed entrance. After a warm Spanish welcome in the breezy reception area, we had a snoop around the couple of traditional-yet-elegant sitting areas, and strayed out onto a terracotta-tiled terrace that looks out across the pretty plumbago- and bougainvillea-dotted gardens and the rolling green golf course, with the blue sea on the horizon.
For him? Golfers will be wowed by the manicured 18-hole world-class golf course designed by Cabell Robinson; the club not only has a Jack Nicklaus Academy but it is now where the Volvo World Match Play Championship are held annually. This is a luxurious land where golf buggies even come stocked with chilled drinks and snacks. Either hit the post-card perfect greens together, or meet back at the chic Clubhouse.
For her? A sleek unisexy spa with Turkish baths, a Finnish sauna and every fitness-centre thrill, Finca Cortesin even has the country's only 'snow cave'. Duck in for the –12º icy therapy and you'll feel transported to the Artic while your circulation gets a livening up – especially when alternated with some steam-room action and a few laps in the heated hydrotherapy pool. True sybarites will want to sign up for treatments such as a Caviar Facial or a hot-stone therapy massage.
Travel gallery: Bay of Fires Lodge & Walk in north-east Tasmania
Unique in the Smith collection, Bay of Fires Lodge & Walk in north-east Tasmania combines a stay at a boutique eco-retreat with an inspiring two-day guided trek along one of Australia's iconic coastlines. Turquoise seas, snow-white beaches and wildlife-filled bush make the Bay of Fires the perfect place to recharge…
1 Day One kicks off in Mt William National Park, with a flat, nine-kilometre coastal trek and jaw-dropping ocean views.
