Keep yer pants on.. You'll get some input sometime this month.
Flourite - Don't use the stuff . My tanks got builders sand base covered by a thin layer of pea gravel. Click the link in my sig to see. It works really well as I can gravel vac up when the black nasties get too thick. I also like the look of gravel under a planted tank. I guess you can layer just about anything the same way if you want. I tried out some straight sand substrates for a while and the plants kept coming out during water changes (I'm not that careful).
Now that you've got the plants and light figure out here's what's next.

BobsTropicalPlants - He's on the forum and is pretty good. He's also got some of those plants on your list. They sometimes come with free snails as well!!!
Aquariumfertilizer - I've ordered from them as well. Good service and friendly.
Timer for the lights - If your gonna buy an expensive light get an expensive digital timer to match it. Just for asthetics of course. I use the cheap as can be ones with my DIY lights. Works like a charm.
Light reading for more information - http://www.barrreport.com/forum.php I swear I'll get around to reading the information on this site eventually. He does have some nice technical reading on the site. I've skimmed enough to know it's pretty good.
