Lace Over Charmeuse Gown with Soutache Detail Style SWG400 151 153
Beautiful, Comfortable, Great Price I couldn't have been more pleased with this dress. Before finding it, I had tried on some much more expensive dresses but none of them "wowed" me. This dress was everything I was looking for. It has beautiful detail, its the mermaid and sweetheart style I was looking for, and it hugs my body perfectly which made my husband happy. It looks amazing in all of my wedding photos. Also, I'm so glad that I opted for the french bustle alteration option. It made it easy to dance and it looked amazing! September 27, 2013
Perfect Dress This dress was amazing! I tried on about 15 dresses, but as soon as I put this one on, I knew it was the one! I added a champagne sash because the dress seemed to need something added around the waistline. It was light and fun, perfect for our outdoor wedding! July 18, 2013
Don't let the model picture fool you! This dress is gorgeous in person! Honestly, I didn't even want to try it on when I saw it on the hanger. When my friend prompted me, I couldn't believe what I saw. This dress hugs in all the right places. And photos cannot begin to capture the elegant shimmer! The lace is "encrusted" with sparkle and pearls throughout the entire dress. I've never seen something like this before. This was the 6th dress I tried on and I wouldn't take it off for 40 minutes. I added a blingy belt as the sparkle enamored me. I ended up purchasing the dress in September 2012 and my wedding isn't until November 2013. July 8, 2013
Gorgeous, elegant gown. I went to LOTS of fancy boutiques in search for the perfect gown. I didn't find anything that I wanted. UNTIL I went to David's Bridal. I chose a few gowns from the rack, and still didn't find anything that I loved right away. My consultant actually brought the gown to me. She said, "This might be what you're looking for." I put it on, and immediately fell in love. The faux buttons, the semi-sweetheart neckline, the beading, and the lace. EVERYTHING was perfect. I was even able to order the gown in petite. I didn't have to have it hemmed at all!! Saved me lots of money. Gorgeous gown, lots of compliments. July 1, 2013

Louisville Metro CouncilMedia AdvisoryFor Immediate Release Media Contacts: Tony Hyatt 574-4137 / 526-3622 Stephen Haag 574-1204 / 645-1752
At the March 8th meeting of the Metro Council, first reading will be given to 13 of the 39 chapters of laws remaining between the old City of Louisville and Jefferson County government that must be reviewed. Those laws can be enacted as is, reviewed and changed then passed or have no action taken. If no action is taken those laws fall off the books.
"This has been a top priority of my presidency, and the Government Administration Committee has made this its priority," says Council President Rick Blackwell (D) 12. "With these first readings, we move forward one third of the legislation to be reviewed. The work of the committees has now begun, and I am confident that the work will be completed by the end of this year"
"We are committed to reviewing every ordinance prior to the end of our fifth year of merged government," says Government Administration Committee Chairman Kelly Downard (R) 16. "The Metro Council will have the opportunity to vote up or down on each ordinance and ensure that none are left to sunset without out proper discussion."
Downard and Councilwoman Tina Ward-Pugh (D) are monitoring the review of these laws. Ward-Pugh is Vice-Chair of the Committee.
"It is our charge that these 39 chapters get a fair and deliberative review through out this year," says Ward-Pugh. "I would hate to think that any good law will go off the books because of our inaction. I am confident that will not happen"
The following is a breakdown of the 13 chapters by committee assignment and then specific laws:
· Contracts; Procurement Procedures
· Government Administration; Merit Board for Employees, Alcohol Beverages, Offenses against Morals, Offenses against Persons, Signs
· Health & Human Services; Noxious Substances
· Public Safety; Police and Fire Departments and Auxiliaries, General Provisions, Offenses against Property, Offenses against Public Peace, Weapons Control, Juvenile Offenses/Curfew
· Transportation/Public Works; Metro Owned Properties
On February 22nd, first reading was given to chapters on taxation and property maintenance Code. Those laws were assigned to the Budget and Transportation/Public Works Committees respectively.
In the coming weeks, the remaining chapters will be given first reading and then assigned to a council committee.

Lauren's List: Baby Items I'm Glad I Bought & Ones I Wish I Hadn't
Now that our second baby is getting close to a year old, It's become much clearer what items we really used and which ones collected dust during her infancy. The funny thing is, the list is completely different than the one I would've given to you with our first daughter. It just goes to show you that every baby is different. Nonetheless, here is my list of our most and least utilized baby items this time around:
Most Used:
1. Aden + Anais Muslin Swaddles: These were a complete lifesaver for us when our Lucy was an infant. We literally used them constantly - both as swaddles and lightweight blankets for our spring baby. With our first baby we had receiving and swaddling blankets, but nothing even compared to these. They are larger than your average receiving blanket, the perfect weight (especially for warmer weather), just the right amount of stretch, and oh-so beautiful.
2. A structured carrier: Our Ergobaby carrier has been a lifesaver on so many occasions. Even with the infant insert, Lucy wasn't quite comfortable in the first few months, but since then she's practically lived in the thing. It was one of the only ways we could get her to sleep, it allowed me to continue to go to the grocery store and take my older daughter on our normal outings without hauling around (or purchasing) a heavy, expensive stroller, and let me get things done around the house on those days when she wouldn't let me put her down.
3. A smart phone: I didn't have one of these with our first daughter (it took me a while to get with the times - we like to pinch our pennies), but now I have no clue how I lived without it! We used a white noise app to help lull her to sleep on the go, it allowed me to take so many amazing photos of my girls without lugging around a huge camera, and kept me sane during those many many night wakings by allowing me to peruse my Facebook feed or hop on the internet.
4. A pacifier: This really completely depends on your baby - my niece and nephew absolutely were not interested in any way in a pacifier and do not suck their thumbs, but both of my kids definitely liked to soothe themselves this way.
5. A co-sleeper: They attach to your bed and allow you to have your babe at arm's reach during those first few months when you're constantly waking and feeding at night. I didn't feel comfortable sleeping with my baby directly in our bed so this is the next best thing. I loved not having to get out of bed a million times a night and being able to glance over at her during those crazy hormonal postpartum moments to see if she was still breathing - it gave me such peace of mind.
6. A wrap-type carrier: During the first few months, this is seriously the best way to cozy up with your babe. I would pop her in and she would go right to sleep. In fact, she slept the whole way through my older daughter's third birthday in one of these. It takes a little bit of practice to figure out the wrapping, but once you get the hang of it it's a snap.
7. A video monitor: We were gifted one of these with baby number two, and I can't believe how useful it's been. I could set it up anywhere and it made me feel at ease when my daughter was sleeping in another room, helped us to figure out (after we moved her to a crib) if she was fussing because her little leg was caught/she had lost her pacifier or if we should let her go for a few more minutes, and allowed me to take a few moments to gaze at her while she slept while I played with my older one.
Dust Collectors:
1. A baby bathtub: It was such a pain to lug one of these out and store it in our little house. This time around we just bathed her in the sink - easy as pie.
2. A bouncer/swing/pack n play: While we owned these items, I found we just didn't use them this time around. She was perfectly happy to nap in her co-sleeper, crib, car seat, carrier, or wrap. She had absolutely no interest in the swing or bouncer, and the pack n play was useful for maybe a month at most. I so wish she had loved a swing (my niece would snooze in one for hours), but we could've saved some serious money here.
3. Fancy stroller: If we lived in a more urban area this probably would be more useful, but I rarely use our stroller. The wrap or Ergo carrier were much more practical for us.
4. Changing table: Being a second child, taking her upstairs for every diaper change would have been a huge pain. I just used our travel changing pad on the rug most days so that I could stay close to my three-year-old.
5. Burp cloths: Neither of my kids really ever did the spit-up thing. I think this one totally depends on that one factor.
6. Nursing pillow: I used a Boppy all of the time with my first daughter, but this time around it just didn't feel comfortable. I preferred just holding her sans pillow.
7. Diaper pail: We used a diaper pail for maybe a month with each of my kids. Then we went to a normal trash can. Pee diapers went into the regular trash can. The other kind went straight outside. It just wasn't worth it to keep buying those expensive bags.
So what about you? Does your list look anything like mine? And were your must-have lists different for each of your kids?

In regards to the #5 keeper, parents should be aware that there are no current mandatory safety standards for co-sleeper bassinets like the one pictured. That is not to say that they cannot be used safely, but at this moment in time, manufacturers are designing them at their own discretion.
Getting off my soapbox now. Thanks :)
Even though I did cloth I ditched the diaper pail, too. I just put them straight in the washer that was half filled with water (after solids were flushed.) When I needed to wash clothes I ran the diapers and then the load of clothes right after.
The only things I couldn't live without were my fancy assortment of cloth diapers, clothes, Baby Bjorn (it was 15 years ago) and a car seat. We did the family bed and she hated being in a sling so we were able to run a very minimal ship.
You don't need the Boppy this time around because you've built up your arm muscles carrying the first!
When my kids were little and I was carrying them on my hip, my upper left arm became incredibly muscular to the point where you could clearly tell the difference between my right and left arms.
I'm pregnant and really liking the baby related posts. Keep it up!
It's funny, I read a lot of moms posting that those aiden + anais swaddle blankets worked for them, and I just don't see how. We bought them when we were pregnant, thought they were so soft, but once my daughter arrived, we found them almost worthless. They turned out to be too soft/flimsy for swaddling - she kicked right out of them even as a newborn; and too thin for using as a blanket on any hard floors. We ended up using the thick hospital blankets they sent us home with.
I totally agree with the first list, but the second is full of items I use all the time (stroller, diaper pail, changing table, boppy, burp cloths). What I didn't use is the crib, the sleep sacks, the baby shoes, the pack n play, the diaper bag, baby dishes, or lots of baby toys.
Erica, we love our muslin swaddle blankets, and we never swaddled our daughter (she didn't like it). We drape them over a stroller to keep the sun out of her eyes when she was napping, tuck it around her in the carseat, bring it to use as burp rag when we go to the store, etc.
Our baby is due in less than two weeks, and I love these types of posts! I'm constantly battling with myself - trying to decide what we really need taking up space. Not to mention a lot of baby items are just expensive, and we want to buy a home this year! That said, we're definitely going to be flexible! Thank you for your post!
I used the aden + anais blankets with my first as both a blanket and a sunscreen over the stroller. I live in a very sunny place and these things are great for blocking sun but still breathable. With baby 2, I use them the same way and as a swaddle. I don't know why but I can swaddle baby 2 with two of these (one for the upper body, one for the lower body). With my eldest, I relied heavily on the SwaddleMe velcro blankets and those aren't working with 2. Baby's are different.
I definitely use my BOB jogger stroller and my Ergo and I used a Moby wrap early on. I never could get the hang of slings. Too much pressure on one shoulder.
I recommend borrowing as much of the gear from friends and family as you can because you never really know what your baby will find soothing. Also, even for stuff that works, it's rarely something used for long enough to justify the expense. My eldest loved his borrowed exersaucer from about 4 months on. I can't remember when but I want to say he used it until he was about 9 or 10 months old. We returned it and recently got it back to use for our second. If you can start an exchange like that with friends it's great. That exersaucer has been loved and used by six babies at least in the past three or four years.
I had a changing table with 1 but now have two stories so we have a changing supplies bag downstairs and a couple of changing areas upstairs. One on the floor in the toddlers room and supplies + our bed for the baby.
I too, am enjoying all the baby posts! I especially like nursery designs, but these lists are useful for finding practical baby stuff.
I used every single thing on your dustcatchers list with my baby - and frequently too. Different strokes for different folks, I guess!
In fact, our fancy BOB stroller has paid for itself. It has allowed us to go without a car for the past few years, since I can wheel my now-toddler the two miles home from daycare every day.
I mean, everyone loves a list, but the best advice is to buy the bare necessities to before baby comes and then see what you need as you go.
The things we used the most were:
1. Swaddling blankets to keep the babies comfortable and help them sleep through the night.
2. Pack and Play - used instead of a bassinet and changing table when they were young. Can serve as a crib or travel bed until the children are older.
3. Robosmart Bulb - it is a LED bulb that screws into any lamp and can be controlled with an iPhone. I use it to dim the lights at bed time and it has an auto on setting so the light can switch on at a low setting if I need to get up and check on the baby at night.
Don't buy a diaper pail - use a closed lid trash can lined with a plastic bag. Video monitors are overkill. You will quickly learn you baby's cries on a baby monitor and can easily determine id you need to get up.
I used Miracle Blanket swaddlers for every nap and sleep for the first couple months. We never mastered regular swaddling and baby couldn't break out of these! We used the muslin swaddlers for everything else from favourite summer blankets to sun shades to nursing covers.
We still use a Marpac Dohm sound machine every day for sleep. As a cloth diaperer, I wouldn't want to get by without my Ubbi steel diaper pail (keeps the stink in). I use a regular pail for disposables though.
how is a smartphone a baby item? seriously people, we need to stop needing so much.
I loved my Boppy....could have used 2! One for in the house and one in the car. I am a crazy woman who breastfed 2 kids for 3 years each. :)
Without being overly dramatic the sidecar bassinet helped save my daughter's life. At 2 weeks old she caught a "cold" from me, the Dr's said.... only it wasn't a cold. I awoke in the night to a baby who wasn't breathing. I stimulated her, got her to the hospital and after almost being sent home as a Nervous Nellie mother,it was discovered that we both had whooping cough ( pertussis) and she had RSV too. I believe that if she hadn't been next to me, she would have been a SIDs baby. Always trust your instincts as a parent. You know your baby better than anyone.
I loved cloth diapers. I used 2 treated fabric liners in my diaper pail. After removing solids I would put the diapers in the lined pail. When it was time to wash I would pull out the bag of dirty diapers and wash diapers and liner together. Then I would line the pail with my second liner and I was set to go. I also loved my front loader with a sanitizing cycle....it was an LG.
My daughter is fine BTW. No ill effects from her month in the hospital.
It's funny how different every mom and baby can be. My list is the exact opposite of this one! Everything she didn't need, I couldn't live without and everything she couldn't live without, I have never really used!
Cynthia Lee - Glad your little one is okay!!
We had lightweight Carter's cotton blankets that we swaddled our son with. My hubby was the Master at that!
A friend gave us regular white cloth diapers to use as burp cloths. I highly recommend that as they are very absorbent and when no longer used as a burp cloth, they can be repurposed into household rags.
If you have a small house, like I do, a baby monitor is not really necessary, but I think that is a personal choice.
I adore my lightweight Maclaren foldup stroller. That thing is the BOMB.
Our son had no use for the aquarium mobile we got as a gift. It attached to the side of his crib and he hit his head EVERY TIME.
The smelly diaper pail got ditched. We did a combo of cloth and disposables and there was no reason we could not just run the dirty diaper out to the trash, but we also live in a house. If you are in an apartment a pail may come in handy.
Sharpknife, I had my babies in NYC and used both strollers and carriers. I used to get criticized by online mothers for using a stroller at all, and I never understood it. Then I moved to the country, where I use the car to get from point a and point b and walk from there, and I understood that these parents didn't understand what it's like to be a city parent, and I didn't understand what it's like to be a country parent.
City parents use strollers like country parents use cars, and vice versa.
Deirdre, isn't it amazing how quick everyone is to tell you that you are doing it wrong??
I live in semi-rural NJ and I walked my son every day, we live on a dead end street, and I would also drive to the park to use the paths and walk him there for change of scenery. I think that might make some of those online people's heads explode LOL
This is entirely personality, child (even two in the same family are different) and situation based. My smart phone kept me sane during long feedings with #2, never would have believed it. I loved the Moby for #1, but #2 was a preemie and hated it. I carry my babies extensively but bought an expensive stroller with a huge cargo basket - it replaced a second car for us and we spent that money on a wise investment - a summer home on the ocean. And those wipes warmers everyone trashes?? We are on our third because we cloth diaper and use moist wash clothes, not disposable wipes. This is really a case of to each his own.
Keep the lists coming! It's great to read what worked for some families, and then read *helpful* comments about how other things worked for other families. Very educational, thanks everyone!
Thanks. :) She is 9 now and a blessing. I wish my physician had recommended a pertussis booster before I got pregnant, and we could have avoided the whole sorry mess. They didn't know that the childhood vaccine needed a booster back then.
*I* use a Marpac Dohm every night! I even have an extra on hand in case this one goes bad suddenly. It's like a magic snap of the fingers for me -- white noise comes on; I go out! I had a really bad week a few years back when a hurricane took our power out.
The best advice for the pregnant ladies is to get very little and just acquire things as you need them. We didn't have a shower and barely bought anything pre-birth, yet somehow we have boxes full of stuff that people kept giving us. Some useful, some not.
We did buy a crib but ended up co-sleeping. Bought a fancy carrier but the baby hates feeling confined and prefers the stroller. We smugly thought we'd never get an expensive designer stroller but now use one several times a day.
I was convinced I'd cloth diaper after the initial newborn phase but we live in a country/city where everyone hangs laundry indoors, so I'm sticking to our eco-disposables...
The only item I bought when pregnant which turned out to be invaluable is a Stokke Trip Trapp chair with newborn seat. I spend a lot of time in the kitchen and it's been so useful not having to bend down to get the baby out of bouncers or swings. She sits perfectly at table height, loves being in the center if things where she can see everything, and now it's turning out to be the perfect chair for weaning...
OK this isn't an item per say, but a tip I found invaluable. I hired a Mother's helper ( an energetic 11-13 year old girl) to help with housework while I nursed. A girl that age can do a " good enough" job helping with the daily tasks( which for me are dishes, laundry,trash,bed making, swish and swipe at the bathroom, dinner prep, dust mop or sweep) to keep you sane. Also they can help with a " weekly house blessing" a la Flylady . Have a written lists for what will make you feel good about your surroundings and sit down to nurse while a preteen angel helps out. I paid 5-6 bucks an hour, and it was the best money I ever spent while handling a colicky infant on zero sleep. It's also great because you are training and getting to know a potential future babysitter. :)
Even tho' I never had or will have a baby, I still check out these posts for the baby showers for my (endlessly) fertile co-workers.

Ha! Hilarious. I was just noting today how the scale has tipped, and now there are MORE posts on my facebook feed about babies/kids/pregnancies than not. Yikes.
Nowhere near having kids myself, but love reading this so I can talk intelligently with my friends who are parents, also just to be aware of what's out there! There's so much stuff and so much information available, having pointers is always helpful.
I used all of the stuff mentioned a lot - both the good and the bad. I live in Chicago and love my UppaBaby Vista. It holds a ton of stuff which meant I could go and do grocery shopping and didn't have to carry it home.
My daughter would also only nap in the swing for a while and the bouncer was great when I was cooking dinner or stuff.
I am pregnant again and due to space issues we gave away a bunch of stuff but I am planning to borrow as much as I can so I don't have to buy all of that stuff again.
I really want the Arm's Reach this time too. We used a bassinet with my daughter but it was bulky and I had to get out of bed to pick her up for nightly nursing sessions, so I hope I can avoid that this time.
Thanks everyone for all of the interesting comments - so fun to see how different each parent's experience is!
@Sharpknife - We do have a stroller, but use it very infrequently. This isn't because my baby is trapped in our house, but because she prefers our Ergo carrier. I'm sure that a stroller is an essential for many, but for us we probably could have done without it. We're not city dwellers, so that's probably part of it too.
@ZoeMcC - Probably right! I'm much more buff this time around ;)
@Erica_L. - Our first daughter couldn't be swaddled in anything - she probably could've broken out of a straight jacket I swear. But the muslin swaddles worked amazingly well for our second daughter and we couldn't have lived without them. We did use the thicker hospital blankets on cooler nights and those worked well too.
@Cynthia_Lee - How terrifying! Glad to hear she's okay!
Have to caution that babies should not be napping in car seats (outside of car rides) or carriers, especially when they are very little -- there are warnings against that.
We were lucky -- we had a 4th generation Lloyd Loom baby bassinet. It was beautifully and safely designed with ideal ventilation -- we used it as our babies' bed for the first 3 to 4 months, wheeling it from beside our bed to the office, living or dining room. Very handy!
Also, I loved my bugaboo! In fact, I still miss it. Used it for both our children on a daily basis -- it is one of the very few strollers that could go anywhere, even into European elevators (which are the size of phone booths!). I sold it for 2/3rds of what I paid for it after 7 years -- a pretty good investment in every way.
We loved our iPod, and then later, iPhone too. Great for having lullabies on hand, although I was forced to learn O chi mi na morbheana (in gaelic) by heart.
The boppy got used for a lot more than breastfeeding, so came in quite handy.
A good rocking chair -- we bought a Finnish MCM design, and still have it in our living room. It was awesome for soothing babies (so nice when they are sick).
We used cloth diapers (mostly Imse Vimse), cloth wipes and home made wipe solution, and so used a cloth warmer for the wipes (really awesome -- our kids had the cleanest bottoms) and a simple diaper pail. Loved my front loader with the sanitizing feature! (AEG)
There were a couple of cds of lullabies that we couldn't have done without -- The Planet Sleeps, 'Til their Eyes Shine by Roseanne Cash, and Dreamland.
Books! Goodnight Gorilla, Goodnight Moon, The Runaway Bunny, Where the Wild Things Are, Green Eggs and Ham... that's just for starters!
Every age is special and wonderful in its own way, but when they are babies, I found it to be particularly magical. Every day, you are learning who they are, and it is so much fun! Savour it, and take lots of photos, because it passes far too quickly.
Have to caution that babies should not be napping in car seats (outside of car rides) or carriers, especially when they are very little -- there are warnings against that.
We were lucky -- we had a 4th generation Lloyd Loom baby bassinet. It was beautifully and safely designed with ideal ventilation -- we used it as our babies' bed for the first 3 to 4 months, wheeling it from beside our bed to the office, living or dining room. Very handy!
Also, I loved my bugaboo! In fact, I still miss it. Used it for both our children on a daily basis -- it is one of the very few strollers that could go anywhere, even into European elevators (which are the size of phone booths!). I sold it for 2/3rds of what I paid for it after 7 years -- a pretty good investment in every way.

My biggest waste of money (although it was a gift) was a crib. I never expected to cosleep, but I do, so the crib is basically a "put my baby down for a sec" piece of furniture.
I live in a very urban area where I walk everywhere and my $1000 stroller gathers dust. Thank GOODNESS it was a hand-me-down. It's heavy and my son hates it. We use a soft carrier. (The Beco Gemini, which grows from baby to toddler)
Other dust catchers include baby chairs of all kinds, pack and play, swing. Babywearing suits my son much better than being put down.
I also much prefer a large, chic tote than a big diaper bag and can't figure out why any mother sudden has a kid and wants to carry an ugly or baby-themed bag.
my oldest child learned to move really quickly and never liked being swaddled. my second child needed the swaddle....and stayed in it until nearly 6 months! swaddleme blankets saved us completely, and i'd never heard of them with my first!
we live in NYC so good stroller is a must. im not sure what I think our biggest waste of money was. we didnt buy too many things even with kid #1 b/c we live in a New York City apartment! We pretty much used everything with both kids....
my son is also a little over a year now. Thank goodness for the smart phone! I also loved aden + anais, the ergo and video monitor.....however I did NOT use the co sleeper at all, my baby just wouldn't sleep in there....but I used the swing and jumper a ton. That is what he did while I showered and cooked etc. I also used the boppy all the time with my 1st but this time, not at all! weird.
In response to those reading for tips on gift giving, you really can't go wrong with books! We had a girl and, seriously, the only thing friends and family gave us were clothes. I'm grateful for the thought and tried to use as much of it as possible, but she had a new outfit for every day of the month, and even so most are now going to charity shops with price tags still attached... They grow so quickly!
Much appreciated items were anything handmade and anything educational. Classic wooden toys, a box set of Beatrix Potter or Laura Ingalls Wilder, that sort of thing. Or Lamaze toys that you can strap on to the stroller. Etsy offers everything under the sun if you're not the crafty type.
I just spent a fair bit of money on a baby purée cookbook, masher set, ice cube trays and mouli. If you have a friend who likes to cook, you can plan ahead and get stuff for when the baby starts to eat solids.
Just some ideas :) Every parent is so different in what they want/need, it's such a shame when presents don't get used. It's much better to go small and special than huge and over the top...
I love that the smart phone made it to the list. I think so many people fail to realize how many baby purchases this ONE purchase can save you! White noise apps, books, a camera, music, and you can even set up a baby monitor with some apps. I definitely don't view this as an excessive purchase when it takes the place of all of these other extraneous things AND continues to be useful to me as an adult AND after the baby no longer needs white noise etc.
I didn't use the boppy ever for nursing, but it did come in handy during the "she can't quite sit up without toppling over phase"!
I love how different babies are.
The A&A blankets were the only swaddle type device my baby could not break out of when he was under 2 months. The specially designed swaddle wrap type things were all too big and other blankets were too thick.
I have hardly used a carrier because he falls asleep in the car whenever we go anywhere so it is easier for me to transfer him asleep in his car seat to a click n go stroller than wake him to put him in a carrier. I am also very short so putting the car seat in a shopping cart means I can't see over it to drive the cart.
He also absolutely loved his swing device but, I agree that the bouncer seat is not necessary, especially if your swing can also vibrate.
I love the changing table (well dresser with changer on top) not so much for diapers but for dressing in the morning and before bed. I'm too short to dress a baby in the crib.
I never could have co slept with this baby as he would have kept us both awake with all the little noises he made and all the movement even when swaddled. We just took turns sleeping on the couch with him in a bassinet next to us (bottle fed).
And burb cloths - not the specialty ones (complete waste of money) but the cloth diaper type - are an absolute lifesaver for our baby that spit up constantly and now drools all the time.
I would also recommend a dimmer bulb/switch in the nursery since it is easier to use that right by the entry than fumble for a table lamp across the room.
Regarding a monitor - at night, in our tiny house we found that the monitor was just too loud (even on low) and picked up every little sound and we could hear him just as well down the hall without it. We do use it for nap time though if we are downstairs or outside.
And yes, baby bathtub is a waste. We used a little chair thing in the sink when he was really young and then just took him in the shower with one of us and handed him out to the other person when he was done. It got him used to water in his face early and now he doesn't mind it at all.
I agree with most everyone, which is to say, all babies and parenting styles are different, and none are wrong!
My one recommendation is to buy secondhand. You can wash most any fabric part of baby contraptions in the washing machine, and use whatever cleaning supplies you want on the plastic/metal parts. I have all of the potential dust-collectors- It's ridiculous, but it's only temporary and we (barely) have the space. I don't place my baby in any one contraption for a long time- floor time is very important for development, and I do carry her in the Beco Gemini (love!!) sometimes too. She loves her jumper right now (6 months) while the swing is up in storage for the next one, but was very useful in getting her to nap when she was a newborn...Depending on lifestyle and your baby, I feel like one could go with all or none of the baby contraptions out there.
I love this post. Just love hearing from other moms about what they found helps and what don't.
In my case, I'm actually glad that I have almost all of the items on Lauren's list (I don't have a co-sleeper), and they get plenty of use on a daily basis. Some of this stuff are just godsends that I can't live without: the aiden + anais blankets, the soother, our Bugaboo, and a video monitor.
Although we haven't used our pack n' play much, it was a lifesaver when we came home for the hospital and used it for a changing table for the first two months. We weren't prepared at all, as she showed up one month early. We have used it a few times for travel and when family visits. Co-sleeper was also a bit of a waste, she mostly slept in the bed, but it was great when she needed the billy bed. The nurse was able to set up the light box on the co-sleeper.
Every baby is different, every parent is different, everyone has a different parenting style, work situation, living situation, et cetera, so we will all need and use different things. I have a 7.5 month old now (my first) and my husband and I like to live minimally and consume as little as we can...so for us, the only things we found we needed were: 1. Car seat, 2. A couple muslin baby blankets, 3. One small 100% wool crocheted baby blanket, 4. A stack of reusable wipes (made from an old cotton jersey sheet), 5. One dozen cotton pre-fold diapers, 6.Two wool one-size diaper covers, 7. A woven cotton wrap (ours is the Didymos brand), and 8. A handful of baby clothes (just onesies in the summer, socks, tights, long sleeve shirts, a couple pairs of jammies, and a wool hoodie for the winter). That's it! I wear my baby, nurse on demand, safely co-sleep, have been able to mostly stay at home this first year, and so my husband and I have been able to forgo many of items that are often considered baby necessities. I should also state that I know I am lucky to do all of this, and I know that not everyone else is able to stay away from work or would want to. Just sharing my experience. We didn't own or need a crib, pack in play, diaper bag (I just use my purse), changing pad (I use a blanket), disposable diapers or wipes, pacifiers, bottles, swings, baby gyms, strollers, changing tables, boppies, plastic car seat toys, baby monitors, baby shampoo, baby lotion, or baby food. I have bought a Sophie the Giraffe rubber teether, and several handmade wooden teething toys and rattles off Etsy, all of which I recommend. Not that anyone NEEDS this, but my husband and I also purchased a Burley D'Lite trailer with a running stroller kit so I can take the baby for runs now (behind our bike later), while also picking up groceries without a car (it's aweosme!).
I rarely used a stroller either and I was rarely home when my daughter was a baby. I preferred keeping her close to me in a Baby Bjorn, it burned more post-pregnancy calories, and I had no trouble navigating narrow aisles in stores. Also as a city dweller it's difficult to use public transit lugging a stroller around.
For us, most used: A+A swaddling blankets for swaddling and sunshade (for son#2, didn't know about them with son#1), muslin burp cloths, some sort of nursing or regular pillow and a footstool!, a wrap-type carrier for infancy, Ergo for later, a stroller for exercise and carrying mostly groceries (also to push #1 napping while wearing #2).
Least used: change table (easier and safer to use a towel on a bed or carpeted floor with wiggly older babies), crib.
So interesting how every parent and child (even between 1st and 2nd) have different needs and preferences! That's why it is good to be open minded to suggestions yet to not fret if one person's advice doesn't work for you.

Yamaha's Flagship YSP-4000 Does It All
When you've got a small apartment and hate wires like I do, something like the Yamaha YSP-800 sound projector is an agreeable compromise. To be frank, the sound experience is a fraction of a proper home theater system, but it actually quite surprising what 23 sound beam drivers can recreate in terms of a surround sound experience, and I don't ever regret getting one of these compact home theater solutions.
Well...okay...I do regret not waiting a bit longer to get one of their new updated sound projector solutions after reading about the newest features.
The YSP-4000/YSP-3000 are Yamaha's most recent additions (joining the previously announced YSP-900) and they've got a few new enviable new options and features unavailable on my model. The YSP-4000 is powered by forty sound beam drivers and two midbass speakers, while the YSP-3000 gets by with just 21 beam drivers, both calibrated to recreate Dolby Digital, DTS, Dolby Pro Logic II and DTS Neo:6. But the real big selling point with these two new models is the inclusion of HDMI pass-throughs and analog/720p/1080i upscaling to 1080p, for those of you so lucky to have a capable HD monitor set. Both models are iPod and XM Satellite Radio ready, with 2 HMDI input/outputs and even an integrated FM tuner. The overall package looks like it got a lot more svelte too. That's a lot of features in a pretty compact package and pretty much a godsend for a small apartment dweller such as myself . The YSP-4000 will be available in October for $1799 and the YSP-3000 will be available in August for $1195 (the YSP-900 comes in at $899).

I still own a full 5.2 (dual subs) Nakamichi Soundspace 11 system that does a wonderful job of filling a large sized room with the full bodied home theater experience, but have bequeathed it to my dear mom. But when you rent, your living room is the size of some people's bathroom, hate wires (hiding wires in the apartment would require drilling), don't have additional component space and don't want to bother the neighbors below, I'd recommend these single speaker solutions as a compromise. Also, I've noted that these speakers are very, very girlfriend/wife friendly...several people on AV boards have mentioned these were practically welcomed by their better halves where even small AV component setups were frowned upon. And I'd rather have a wonderful girlfriend than a beautiful sound system ;)
Oops, I meant wonderful and beautiful girlfriend. She's got a boomin' system that goes all the way up to "11"!

Racing Beat
Ryan Newman finished in the top 10 last year, one of the drivers to compete in the inaugural Nextel Chase for the Cup. That brought a lot of fame to the young driver, who has a penchant for winning poles and finishing in the money. Truckers News caught up with Newman before the start of the 2005 series.
TRUCKERS NEWS: You guys absolutely dominated pole positions in 2004. Any guesses as to why it didn't translate into more victories?
Ryan Newman: There are so many more factors that go into a race than there are for qualifying. It's definitely easier to perfect one or two laps than it is to try and dominate 300 to 400 laps. We had a great car in the majority of the races this season, but factors out of our control happened to get the best of us.
TN: Knowing the formula for the Nextel Cup, what, if anything, will you do differently this season?
RN: Absolutely nothing. The ALLTEL/Mobil 1 team approaches each race as if it was just as important as the one before and as the next one. We want to lead every lap, win every race, each and every weekend. If winning races remains our main objective, and if we can accomplish that, the points will work themselves out.
TN: Many of the drivers who did not qualify in the top 10 are complaining they're not getting any attention from the media. As a result, neither are their sponsors. What, if any, changes would you like to see to the Nextel Cup format?
RN: Honestly, I wish they would change it back to the way it was originally.
Everyone kind of knew there would be kinks in the system, especially the first season, and this happens to be one of them. In my opinion, if it isn't broke, don't fix it. The original point system just needed a little tweaking. I can see, from a marketing perspective, where the "chase" is going to be very beneficial. But, from a racer's point of view, I don't think it was the answer.
TN: You have an impressive educational pedigree. Do you get involved with car design and building on your team? If so, how?
RN: If I do get involved with the actual structure of the car, it's very minimal. Each team hires professionals to do this job that are very qualified. I leave it up to them.
TN: What's your favorite Nextel Series track?
RN: Darlington, hands down. This track is not just physically challenging, but mentally as well. You have to have an absolutely perfect day to win at Darlington.
TN: Do you like racing the superspeedways like Daytona and Talladega? Why or why not?
RN: I'm not a big fan of the restrictor-plate race tracks, but not necessarily because of the restrictor plates. I don't believe in any racing that has an "out-of-bounds" line, and both of these tracks do. That's just not racing to me.

NASCAR ranks now include two accomplished women drivers.
When NASCAR began its Drive for Diversity program a few years ago, some wondered if the move to add more women and African-Americans to the sport's ranks was simply a show.
Obviously the stock car governing body was serious, and former Indycar competitor Sarah Fisher is a prime example.

1. I understand that (at least until recently) it has been very common for Indian companies to issue bonus shares. Companies in India seem more inclined to issue bonus shares than companies in other countries. I understand that this is because, historically, Indian shareholders have obtained very favourable tax treatment in respect of bonus shares issued by Indian companies. However, I see that you have posted a note saying that "It Used to be legal, now it has been plugged. The following article is only useful for historical notes, and is no longer applicable - Deepak, 2007." My question is: Now that the tax benefit has been "plugged", will Indian companies be less inclined to issue bonus shares than they have been in the past? Or, is it the case that there other good reasons for issuing bonus shares which mean that Indian companies are likely to continue issuing bonus shares as often as they have in the past?Bonus issues have also been favoured for the impression they give: that they are a "bonus", a free incentive. This is not true anymore as the share price goes down by the bonus ratio, but sentiment still indicates that people expect the share price to come back to the original price at some point!
Bonus shares are one way to reduce share price without splitting the share. So for a company whose face value is small - say Rs. 1 - they can't split any further, meaning if they want to keep the share price small enough for retailers to be interested, a bonus would work well. Remember that bonuses only work when the company has huge free reserves, but that's not really a problem for a well established company trading in the 1000s of rupees per share.
2. When Indian companies issue bonus shares, do they usually issue bonus shares "at par value", or instead, do they usually issue bonus shares "at a premium"? Also, does the recent "tax plug" referred to above, affect what is likely to happen in this regard in the future?Bonuses are usually issued at zero cost, but the face value is the same as any other share. The reason they are considered a "bonus" is that the company capitalises it's free resources, so it doesn't expect you to pay even the face value. You can't have different par values (face values) for shares of the same company. So in this regard there will be no change.
There's something else called "rights" issues, which are usually at a premium but a discount to current market price. Entirely separate discussion and I will post more details on this later.

Yesterday's HIGH/LOW
High: Opened what I thought were four bills, only to find they were four duplicate notices that payments had been applied. Overall, a pretty productive day, even though I didn't get any writing done. Finished reading a couple of articles I'd saved to Instapaper, too. That was nice.
Low: Two big ones. HL has taken a dramatic step backwards and we're not sure what to make of it. He needs to CONSTANTLY be touching me, which I confess, drives me mad. (Especially when I'm trying to nurse TL at the same time. I love them more than air, but I can't wait for my body to be my own again.) And I'm afraid something's wrong with Pablo. He's been vomiting fairly profusely of late and it doesn't look like his normal hairball thing. I now need to buy some kind of machine to clean the carpet in the nursery, I think. It looks like the floor in the john at CBGB in there.

WAUSAU, Wis. (WSAU) – Three Wausau City Council members will not seek re-election next year.
Alderman Tom Miller declined comment on his decision not to run. He is charged with felony fleeing after police say he failed to stop in October on his way home from a football game. Officers arrested him for drunken driving.
Council president Bill Forrest said he can no longer balance the demands of public service with his family.
And alderwoman Deb Hadley said she is quitting because of self-imposed term limits.
Candidates have until next Tuesday to file papers to run in the spring election.

TEAMS: Oakland Raiders, Cincinnati Bengals
TEAMS: Oakland Raiders, Cincinnati Bengals
The Oakland Raiders backfield will be without RB Darren McFadden once again this week when the team takes on the Cincinnati Bengals. McFadden will miss his third straight game for the Raiders while being sidelined with an ankle injury. McFadden did not practice on Friday and no exact return date is known although head coach Dennis Allen told reporters he is making progress. Also out this week is fellow running back Mike Goodson. Goodson has been nursing a high ankle sprain and was finally able to remove his protective walking boot this week. Both players were injured November 4, while facing the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.A return date for Goodson has not been revealed yet. This will mean that FB Marcel Reece will get the starting nod again this week. Reece logged an impressive 193 yard effort last week and will look to continue his productivity again this week. On the defensive sided of the ball, the raiders will be without DT Richard Seymour for the third straight game as well. Seymour ...

Use This Guide In Relation To Removing Acne
Try the hints that are appropriate to your skin situation and begin taking charge of your skin today. You can take control and give your skin the healthy glow you desire. Your self-esteem will improve as your acne clears. If acne breakouts are common for you, wash your face more often during the day. Wash your face every morning and every night to prevent oil and dead cells from building up.
Acne is a problem most people deal with in their life at one time or another, usually during the teen years. Finding the proper way to care for your skin depends on many things such as the type of skin you have and what you have available to treat it. Read on for some helpful tips. On several events, acne breakouts outbreaks develop from genes and come coming from a genuine skin condition. In such a case, you may want to talk to a health-care professional and protected prescription medication to deal with the fundamental of the problem (rather than just the signs and symptoms). Visit a skin doctor to see regardless of whether you are able to handle your zits with over the counter supplies, or regardless of whether you want a more powerful doctor prescribed.
One of the most essential things you have to take into account in case you are impacted with spots in your encounter is to dry out your pimple immediately whenever you sense one particular coming on. The a lot less gas that is certainly on the experience at any moment, the better opportunity you have to speed up the healing process.
Applying hydrocortisone or products that contain it will reduce the redness and swelling associated with acne flare-ups. Care must be exercised, though, because hydrocortisone is a fairly harsh treatment that can irritate and damage skin. This damage makes skin vulnerable to the spread of acne. Hydrocortisone should be used sparingly on isolated trouble spots.
If you are a smoker who is concerned about preventing or treating acne, it is time to give up those cigarettes. Recent studies have shown that excessive smoke is damaging to the skin and can actually worsen your acne condition. It is important to give up smoking, or at least reduce the amount of smoke your body is subjected to in order to prevent breakouts.
When fighting acne, be sure that you are getting enough fresh fruit and vegetables. You should also try to increase the amount of nuts and seeds that you eat. In some cases, people who have acne can be lacking certain minerals that are found in these foods. A good way to incorporate fruits and veggies into your diet, is to make smoothies and have salads. Don't use multiple pimples cream at once. Many people rushing to help remedy their pimples choose to mixture up various drugs with the hope that the mix could have far more impact then a single individually. Don't accomplish this, because it might end up performing more damage than good.

Grantee Projects Bethany Christian Services
Youth Permanence Through Openness and Mediation (It's U.P. T.O. Me) Project (May 2008)
The mission of the Reconnect, It's Up to Me Project is to increase the number of older youth in foster care who achieve permanence and, at the same time, strengthen connections with their extended families through open adoption relationships and youth empowerment strategies. Reconnect, It's Up to Me is based on the premise that each youth in foster care will benefit from building lifelong relationships. The program focuses on youth 9 years and older who have had multiple foster and residential placements and have no identified permanency placement. The majority of these youth have been identified as "unadoptable." Permanency planning with these youth is highly individualized and recruitment is child specific.
An integral component in finding permanent families is with the assistance of youth through interviewing them to discover who they consider important relationships from their past. Other ways in locating key information is through file mining, Internet searching, and networking with supportive family members and community partners. Other important components of our project include individual, family, and group therapy to reduce complex trauma and conflicted loyalties regarding their birth family to increase the youths desire to be adopted. The final component of the project is to locate a mentor who can act as a liaison between the youth and birth family and someone who will provide ongoing support for the youth. The goal of the program is to locate a permanent family for the youth; if that is not possible the goal of the mentor would be for that person to become the one reliable adult person for the youth to connect with as they enter independent living. Other benefits for the youth could include gained knowledge about relatives and other relationships previously lost, as well as rebuilt sibling relationships with separated siblings.
- Support from the local family court and Department of Human Services
- Interest from Michigan Department of Human Services in duplicating the project
- After completing the Connect counseling group, youth have requested monthly support groups.
- A mentor newsletter has been developed to help provide support, training, and communication to the mentors
- A permanency planning model which is individualized and child specific can be effective with youth who are identified as being the most difficult to achieve permanency for.
- Many of the youth are in residential foster care and placed throughout the state of Michigan.
- Broad geographies and increased referrals make it difficult to develop trusting relationships with the children, because less time can be spent with them by the case manager.
- Increased staff case loads makes it challenging to provide adequate support to the mentor/mentee matches.
- Difficulty engaging youth in residential and foster care in the counseling component of the project to address conflicted loyalty, complex trauma, and faulty thinking about adoption options.
Tools Used for Program Evaluation
Openness to Permanency Scale (OPT)
Developed by: Internally developed by Sharon LaNoue, LMSW and Phillip Nienhuis, LMSW, of Bethany Christian Services for the ReConnect program.
The Purpose of this Instrument: This self-report questionnaire is designed to determine a youth's willingness to be adopted. The scale identifies issues such as conflicted loyalty, self-esteem, and worthiness. The questionnaire consists of 22 brief statements rated by the youth on a four-point scale from Not True At All to Exactly True. Directions are provided for administering and scoring the questionnaires. This scale is used to measure change in a youth's openness to permanency over time in the It's Up To Me/ReConnect program. It is also used for discussion purposes between the youth, case manager, adoptive parent(s), and/or birth family.
Interval of Administration of Instrument: This instrument is administered by the case manager at intake, 6 months into the program, 1 year into the program, and at termination.
Quality Relationship Scales (QRS)
Developed by: Developed by Mary Banghart Therrien, LMSW, Program Evaluator and Amber Lewandowski, BSW, of Grand Valley State University School of Social Work for the ReConnect program.
The Purpose of this Instrument: This is a complete packet of materials to measure the quality of an adult-youth relationship. It includes a self-report questionnaire for an adult and a separate self-report questionnaire for the youth. The questionnaire examines five important scales of the adult-youth relationship: communication, commitment, security, honesty, and respect. The questionnaire consists of 25 brief statements rated by the mentor or youth on a 6-point scale from Not True At All to Very True, with one neutral answer Don't Know. Directions are provided for administering and scoring the questionnaires. In addition, a comparison chart is provided to determine the variance between adult and youth scores. This chart is provided for discussion purposes between the youth and adult.
Interval of Administration of Instrument: This instrument is administered by the case manager at intake, 6 months into the program, 1 year into the program, and at termination.
Trauma Symptom Checklist for Children (TSCC)
Developed by: John N. Briere, Ph.D.
Copyright: Psychology Assessment Resources, Inc.
The Purpose of this Instrument: This brief self-report inventory is an excellent way to assess posttraumatic stress in 8- to 16-year-olds who have experienced traumatic events such as physical or sexual abuse, major loss, natural disaster, or violence. Composed of 54 items, the TSCC includes six clinical scales: Anxiety, Depression, Anger, Posttraumatic Stress, Dissociation, and Sexual Concerns. In addition, two validity scales alert you to under- and over-reporting.
Interval of Administration of Instrument: This instrument is administered by the case manager at intake, 6 months into the program, 1 year into the program, and at termination.

Beyond Smart Dust-Evolving Sensors to Micro-InstrumentsOctober 24, 2003
Professor Norman Tien, Chair, Electrical & Computer Engineering, University of California, Davis
Distributed wireless sensor networks as exemplified by the Professor Pister?s ?Smart Dust? program at UC Berkeley is a ?hot spot? in technology as there is continuous improvement in functionality and performance as well as a vast range of new applications to tackle. Advances in MEMS technology will allow expansive and rapid deployment of these sensors for all forms of Environmental monitoring, and the resulting distributed networks will bring new challenges to systems and network design. But further out in the future, what will these sensor nodes look like? As we move toward adding more function and complexity for higher capability and performance, we will move away from simple sensors to advanced micro-instruments at the nodes in the network. Enabling devices such as micro-actuator driven tunable structures and early work on an air particulate monitoring micro-system will be presented.
Norman C. Tien is the dean and Nord Professor of Engineering at Case Western Reserve Universitys Case School of Engineering. He is also the Ohio Eminent Scholar in Condensed Matter Physics. Tien joined the Case faculty in January as the Nord Professor of Engineering and chair of the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS). As chair, Tien facilitated the opening of the state-of-the-art, multimillion-dollar Sears Undergraduate Design Laboratory in EECS, which provides electrical engineering students with an environment that promotes and encourages hands-on engineering and design. The $6 million donation from alumni Larry and Sally Zlotnick Sears was the largest outright gift from an individual in the engineering schools history. In addition, he oversaw the building of new departmental facilities in EECS. Prior to coming to Case, Tien served as chair of the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of California at Davis and held a joint appointment at the University of California at Berkeley. He also served as co-director of the Berkeley Sensor & Actuator Center. He previously held faculty positions in Cornell Universitys Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering. Tien received his Ph.D. from the University of California at San Diego, his MS from the University of Illinois, and his BS form the University of California at Berkeley.

Nicknames. Pet names. Call them what you will, JoJo just calls them awesome. She likes them so much she tries to use them as much as possible, for anyone, everyone, and especially for people who don't think they like having them.
The best nicknames are those that are based on someone's best characteristics. Are you incredibly lucky? Your name would be lucky number thirteen! Incredibly tall? Gargantuan is your name. Are you a girl? Hadley girl it is!
They don't have to be incredibly witty or hard to remember, they just have to be enough to let that person know they are awesome!
If you're not good with witty nicknames, have no fear! As a general rule of thumb JoJo likes to use the following tricks:
Add a Z!
Emily becomes Em which becomes Emmers which becomes Emmos which becomes EMZOS.
Add extra vowels!
Cedric becomes Cedge which becomes Cedgie.
JoJo's trusty sidekick's name is Crystal. Change the pronunciation and that's CRISTAL to you!
Add a little!
We have an intern named Kaitlin, make that Kate, then JoJo calls her Katrina….She loves it.
Kathleen becomes Kath becomes Kath Mode….okay so technically that's abbreviating AND adding a little something ridiculous but still….
All in all, JoJo recommends never calling anyone by their actual name. Nothing says I love you more than giving someone a nickname.
Since JoJo loves you she'll probably give you a nickname.
JoJo loves you nicknames.

Sports Fan Insider
NEW YORK (AP) — The NHL and the players' association are returning to the bargaining table Tuesday, hoping momentum generated over the weekend can lead to a long-awaited labor deal.
The sides held negotiations Saturday, the first since Oct. 18, in an undisclosed location and made enough progress to want to talk again just days later. They will get back together Tuesday in New York.
It wasn't determined yet on Monday who would take part in the talks. Saturday's were conducted by just NHL deputy commissioner Bill Daly and union special counsel Steve Fehr. Tuesday could involve a larger group, including Commissioner Gary Bettman and NHLPA executive director Donald Fehr.
The lockout entered its 51st day Monday. So far, 327 games — including the outdoor Winter Classic — have been called off, and the NHL says a full season won't be played.

Alternate title: Maend der hader kvinder, Millenium, Miehet jotka vihaavat naisia, Men Who Hate Women, Menn som hater kvinner
Tattoos and body piercings must be pretty far-out stuff in Sweden, the land of midnight sun, icy blondes and enough twisted thinking to plump up three best-selling mystery novels. From the way that most people look at the inked, pierced form of Lisbeth Salander, the main attraction in the movie adaptation of "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo," the first book in Stieg Larsson's so-called Millennium Trilogy, you might even think that our girl had a swastika stamped on her forehead rather than a few modest rings hooked through her nose — you know, like a cow ready for market or, given the murderous milieu, slaughter. Salander, as she's usually called in the books, is a devil doll par excellence, and maybe if David Fincher makes good on the vaporous rumors wafting around about the inevitable American adaptation, she might one day make an equally delectable film character too. Weighing in at 90 pounds of rage on the page and a hair heavier and less fierce on the screen, where she's played by Noomi Rapace, Salander embodies a host of au courant fantasies. She's a geek girl for starters, a computer hacker who would have downloaded this flick before it even hit theaters, and whose fetish wear and shiny boots suggest that she's into BDSM, as they say in bondage, discipline and sadomasochism circles. More seductive to some, Salander is also a victim turned avenger, who, rather than taking her traumatic past out on herself in classic female style, say, by cutting, externalizes her rage. In "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo," Ms. Rapace more or less looks the part that the filmmakers don't let her fully play. — Manohla Dargis
