About the Property
Indiana Creek Private Scandinavian Log Home - 1 Mile to Breck, Hot Tub, Ski View
The ultimate Colorado vacation experience can be yours at Indiana Creek Lodge. Tucked away 1 mile south of Breckenridge, this multi-million dollar custom built home is a true gem with log cabin ambiance that will set the mood for a perfect family vacation and many special memories.
Our private vacation home is located just a mile south of downtown Breckenridge within a five minute drive of the ski slopes. We love our location in that we are closer than most homes 'in-town' and definitely closer to the action than homes off Peak 7 or Peak 8, which also require you to drive to the slopes. We can zip into town in just a few minutes and either park at the Gondola lot (we have a free parking pass you can use) or drop off skiers at Peak 9. Easy access!
After skiing, return to your mountain home featuring 3 bedrooms and a sleeping loft with an abundance of space for groups of up to twelve guests. Spread over multiple levels, the Indiana Creek Lodge is an ideal lodging choice for Breckenridge visitors wanting a true mountain retreat in a peaceful setting that is only minutes from all of the Breckenridge attractions.
Set under vaulted ceilings that add a feeling of space and allow for massive windows, the main level living room offers comfortable furnishings centered on a fireplace and flat screen television with access to the large deck and private hot tub just off of the living area. Open to the living room, the dining area with two tables plus a breakfast bar attached to the adjacent kitchen that features granite countertops and upscale appliances.
Indiana Creek Lodge has three bedroom and a sleeping loft, with a master suite on the main level and two additional bedrooms and a sleeping loft in the upper level. Furnished with a King bed, the master bedroom includes a private bathroom with a soaking tub and stall shower. Overlooking the living room is a loft area equipped with a Twin bed plus a Twin Trundle to accommodate two guests. Off of the loft are two large bedrooms, both have Two Twin beds with one offering a King and the other a Queen (accommodating up to four guests in each bedroom).
Residence has on-site caretaker to maintain home and grounds. Caretaker is also available for concierge services. Please contact us for more details.

Staying another year, not sure why.
The apartment that I'm in now smells terrible at no fault of my own, the neighbors upstairs are constantly practicing bowling, and this winter I had to live in my living room for a month and a half due to the ceiling near-collapsing in my room from water damage while still paying rent the whole time . It would have never gotten fixed if I hadn't had the health department get involved. I really loved that new mold smell. At least there are not rats or bugs, as I'm outside of the Rat City Rock Cit... View More

September 26, 2015
Summary-the product is junk. Echo previous review about inability to turn key from outside. I'm a bit more of a expert, and I examined the lock. The problem is that the bolt throw slide plate does not fully engage, due to the actuating tab being too short to fully move it into engaged position. This is a fatal design defect, not an isolated one-off defective item. They're all bad, but the defect is only revealed upon installation so, sorry folks, you might not get a refund for this mal-designed product, but you won't be able to make it work properly either, so kiss your $27 goodbye.

Author has written 4 stories for Supernatural.
Hello there...I'm Supernatural Mommy :-) AKA Kat
30 April 2011
Hello there!
I'm sorry to say that the real world dinged me up just a bit over the last couple of years. I went back for my BA (still have another year), and my three very special little guys have had health issues related to their many diagnosis'. Though that's the tip of the iceberg, I hope it will suffice to let you all know that I didn't abandon you purposely. I just have a very full life.
The good news? Is that I am taking the summer off of school and will be devoting myself to several personal pursuits, not the least among them being my fic.
My goal will be to begin regular posting again within the next week and then catch up on all my WIP's. While I am sorry for the long lapses between posting chapters, I must ask for your understanding. In a world with three special needs kids, two of which have life-threatening seizures on a regular basis, well, my fic sometimes takes the back burner to my most important priority of being mom.
Thanks for your patience and understanding,
And Now for the fun part
I'm a fan of the show Supernatural and a mommy to three beautiful little boys. Hence my name (big grin). I'm also a wife and a returning student. I keep myself busy, busy. I don't know how much I will be able to update, but tend to go through bursts of posting. :-)
I've actually been writing fic for a bit now and I'm in the process of re-editing the first two fics I have posted up here. My primary fic-posting site is sn.tv in the fanfiction section there. I have been using my Livejournal page: and you might find some fic there that isn't yet posted here.
I love to read con-crit and reviews, and in fact will sometimes use suggestions in my fic.
My OC's are loosely based on real people. Most notably, and the one character most readers tend to identify with, is Bobby, who is based off my oldest autistic kiddo. He and Sam form a bond early in the Carver series. Occasionally one of my other kids might make it into a fic, it's hard to resist using them since they're all such characters. I hope you'll find something to read that'll work for you!
Thanks for reading!

This is a great location to meet a friend for coffee or tea--hang out by the fire and then shop in their extensive gift shop--fun morning : )
Whenever I want to have a semi-private but comfortable conversation with a friend, this is where we go. It is a quiet atmosphere with good tea/coffee selection, and friendly (but not over inquisitive) staff. There is a quaint gift shop attached to the sitting area that, quite frankly, I'm afraid to go in because everything looks so cute, I'd spend...
great place for coffee and snacks
great for first dates a friend of mine the went there for a date lasted 6hrs so they don't rush you they also have a patio with views of the mountains
I had the Pumpkin Pie Latte and my husband had a Vanilla Latte, they were both very good and the prices were reasonable. Cute gift shop with lots of to choose from.
This coffee shop has everything Starbucks has- and much, much more! The staff is wonderful; they make you a definite priority! The atmosphere is perfect for take-home work, meetings, or just relaxing by the fire or on the patio. Additionally, the location is super convenient, just right off the highway, and with all of the gifts it is definitely a...
Kim and Julie were great. Seriously, a good cup of coffee or a fancier something the gals will put it on you. Stop in and say hi!

U.N. Taking Control Of America's Southern Border
This sounds like a genius idea. Who can mess up the border even more than the federal government? The UN. Guaranteed.
Check it out:
Two anonymous Border Patrol agents reportedly told radio host Dave Hodges that under the pretense of labeling illegal aliens "refugees," the United Nations is "calling the shots" on America's border operations and the U.N. is deciding which immigrants to ship to various parts of the U.S.
One of the agents said U.N. personnel are already present at various detention facilities in the American Southwest, according to Hodges, and are working with Homeland Security agents in "gathering MS-13 gangsters, captured from different roundups, patch worked together as a group and then shipped together to various locations on the perimeter of the United States."
"I objected to admitting MS-13 gangsters into the U.S. and I was told that we have our orders to treat them like anyone else," the other agent told Hodges.
Hodges says that he asked one of the agents how they knew the immigrants were MS-13 and he told him they could tell "by the tattoos."
"He recounted the fact that MS-13 operatives will have a tattoo with tears on their face which represents a person that they have murdered in the commission of their drug related duties," Hodges reported. "He said he processed an MS-13 member who had nine tears on his face and he was told to process him as an 'unaccompanied juvenile refugee.'"
And police officers are already encountering these gang members, such as the La Grulla, Texas, officer who pulled over a vehicle last week carrying an aggressive MS-13 member.

We compile pre sentence removals reports which help magistrates and judges decide on the most effective and appropriate home removals sentence. The reports are prepared after the offender has been convicted but before they are sentenced.
Pre sentence reports are usually prepared by probation staff in courts, either on the day or within 5 days of the removal if more time is needed to gather information. Some reports are given to the courts orally, others are presented in writing.
On occasion, in the most complex cases, the report can take 15 days to prepare. These reports are prepared in probation community supervision teams and will usually involve working with other agencies to gather information about the UK removal at hand.
All pre sentence reports include a proposal to sentencers on the type of sentence we consider most suitable, in order to:
- protect the public
- punish the offender
- reduce the risk of reoffending
- rehabilitate the offender
Pre sentence reports include:
- an analysis of the offence
- an assessment of the offender and the reasons why they committed the offence
- an assessment of the risk of harm the offender poses to other
- an assessment of the likelihood of their reoffending
- an assessment of the work which needs to be done with the offender
To prepare the reports, probation staff will interview the offender and will also speak to other agencies as appropriate.

The German Electronics artist Robert Schroeder (discovered 1978 by EM pioneer Klaus Schulze) has produced numerous excellent solo CDs. The music of Robert Schroeder is various, but always soulful. He combines spherical synthesizer sounds with modern rhythm-mical contrasts, often supplemented by spacey guitars and sometimes also by piano, cello or voices. On the occasion of the annually "Schallwelle" Award ceremony, Robert Schroeder once again gave a concert on the 12thof March 2011 in the Planetarium Bochum (FRG). Accompanied by drummer Gigi Frieg and in the encore supplemental by surprise guest musician Bernd Kistenmacher for the approx. 250 spectators results a spectacular and impressing event.
Robert Schroeder is a talented and inspired german electronic composer whose career has strong connections with analogue synth sequences and spacey, spherical soundscapes produced by Klaus Schulze during the second half of the seventies. If we compared it with the best essays from K.Schulze's classic period, Harmonic Ascendant figures as a major work, pushing the cosmic synthesizer trippiness to an other level of experimentation and emotion. Harmonic Ascendant is not as majestic and as visceral than early TD and Schulze but clearly better than anything produced by these two masters after the 70's.

White Paper Discusses Need for Comprehensive IAM Strategy in Combatting Insider Threat
"Insider threat" is no longer just a security buzzword; it has become an enterprise concern commanding executive-level attention. A new white paper, Stopping The Insider Threat, produced in collaboration between The Chertoff Group and SailPoint, a leading independent identity and access management (IAM) provider, seeks to inform the conversation around the importance of a complete Identity and access Management strategy in protecting against insider attacks.
At its core, insider threat is an Identity and Access Management (IAM) issue: malicious insiders, by definition, have been granted some level of authorized access and are therefore often harder to detect than bright-line cases of unauthorized access or intrusion. As addressed in this paper, many organizations' vulnerability to insider attack stems from gaps in their IAM approach. These gaps can be mitigated by embracing a complete Identity and Access Management (IAM) strategy, rooted in governance, which can protect against the full range of insider attacks.

Ahhh the mojito – call me a pirate but I love rum and rum-based cocktails! This lovely refreshing classic cocktail is great for lazy evenings in with a big bowl of nachos or a pile of fajitas, or with a BBQ. Or just on its own!
There are so many variations of this drink, it is like a spaghetti bolognese – you take the main ingredients and add to them and change them and over time create a dish perfected to your own taste buds. The below recipe is how I like to make my mojitos, I must admit I do prefer golden rum to white which is why the mojitos I photograph often have a slight golden color to them – but white rum is what is traditionally used. When I don't have any soda water, I skip the sugar and add lemonade instead.
As with my Caiprinhas I am guilty of adding a bit more sugar then I probably should…
- 2 Limes, quartered
- 100ml White or Gold Rum (50ml per glass)
- Ice Cubes
- 2 Tablespoons of Sugar (1 Tablespoon per glass)
- Soda Water or Lemonade
- A few sprigs of Mint
- Place the lime quarters and sugar into two large glasses and muddle (mash together with a pestle or the end of a rolling pin) to release the lime juice.
- Add the rum and a few mint leaves and stir.
- Place a few cubes of ice into the glass and top with soda water.
- Garnish with a sprig of mint and serve.
- Enjoy!

This new Atlantic Magazine story by Sarah Garland raises the possibility that mixed-income housing and school integration can be pursued at the same time, at least at a small scale, using Atlanta's Charles Drew Elementary, located in a once-rough neighborhood which now attracts a mix of families and the approach is being emulated in Indianapolis, Galveston, and New Orleans. Of course, we all know that the destruction of public housing in Chicago hasn't gone so well, over all, and I don't know if there have been any "Purpose Built Communities" (the name for the approach) tried here. Some will be put off by the fact that Drew is a charter, and that Warren Buffett is a supporter. Read this Firedoglake blog entry for this point of view, and some Chicago connections. But there's also a connection to the Obama Neighborhood Choice effort. Could something like this happen here? Is it already, for better or worse? Or should we all just give up on school integration and accept things the way they are, waiting for district school systems to right themselves.

text: Their starting QB was a candidate for the Rhodes Scholarship but his interview was on the same day as the Harvard-Yale game. He chose to play in game rather then go to the interview which is necessarry for the scholarship and can't be rescheduled. The QB decided to play in large part based on advice from his head coach who was also up for the Rhodes Scholarship when he was in college so he had a unique perspective into the situation. This was a pretty big story leading up to the game. Yale ended up getting destroyed 45-7 in the game. Later it was discovered that the Yale head coach had lied on his resume and was never a Rhodes candidate. He was promptly fired. Then today it came out that the QB who was given a lot of credit for not abandoning his teamates never actually had an interview that day because his candidacy was suspended because a girl had just accused him of rape. He's now no longer enrolled at Yale and didn't graduate.

First, the good news: on his latest album, Rodney Smith has surpassed what he achieved on the acclaimed Run Come Save Me. While that record was a landmark for British hip hop, Awfully Deep is already a contender for "album of the year". Not long into it, though, you start to worry about its creator's mental health. On the album's title track, the rapper with the pseudonym Roots Manuva talks about giving up rap music and persuading his management not to send him for psychiatric treatment. Over an ominous rolling bass-line that dominates the track, he intones, "My sanity is back on the line again/ And last year I said I wouldn't rhyme again/ But now I'm back for punishment time again".
First, the good news: on his latest album, Rodney Smith has surpassed what he achieved on the acclaimed Run Come Save Me. While that record was a landmark for British hip hop, Awfully Deep is already a contender for "album of the year". Not long into it, though, you start to worry about its creator's mental health. On the album's title track, the rapper with the pseudonym Roots Manuva talks about giving up rap music and persuading his management not to send him for psychiatric treatment. Over an ominous rolling bass-line that dominates the track, he intones, "My sanity is back on the line again/ And last year I said I wouldn't rhyme again/ But now I'm back for punishment time again".
From the marijuana haze that enveloped his last record, Smith has now moved to a pervading atmosphere of paranoia and insecurity. It is surprising, then, to to find that in the flesh he is garrulous company, a laid-back but entertaining interviewee, with a laugh reminiscent of Frank Bruno and a succession of daft voices to illustrate his points.
It has been four years since his last album, a long time even if you count the mix album BadMeaninGood and Run's companion, Dub Come Save Me. His dry-humoured delivery and unique sound, based on dub bass and reggae rhythms, had won critical acclaim for devising music that was definitely in the tradition of hip hop, but in a defiantly British idiom. It was one where Smith could rap about "pints of beer" and "cheese on toast", but it a sly manner that ensured he never sounded corny. Run also sold by the shed-load. Smith came away with a gold disc along with his Brits nomination and Mercury award. So why did he take so long to return?
"It was like being smacked over the head with your own potential," he explains. "It's a massive leap from doing PAs in little clubs to playing a venue with 2,000 people looking at you. I can remember doing Nickelodeon when "Dreamy Days" came out, thinking, "Should I be on this kids' show doing my 'E' tune?'."
Having released his debut album, Brand New Second Hand, to indifference beyond the hard-core hip-hop fraternity, Smith was ill-prepared for such success. "It has been a double-edged dagger. There's always a little part of your brain that thinks 'Mmm, this is the track that's gonna buy me a Porsche', but the rest of the time you are just happy to make music. I saw myself as an underground kind of artist.
"I'm the old scoundrel, the one that says stuff that shouldn't be said, that goes against the grain. And I'm on national TV with my Mum watching, my brother and my cousin, and I'm talking about pissing in the bottle while driving in a car. Whoa! should I really be doing this?"
Smith was even more disconcerted to find himself recognised by people who he could never imagine speaking to through his records. "I'm going about my normal duties surrounded by suits and this one man comes up and goes 'I heard you on the radio!' as if I knows me. That was strange."
His concern was that, by entering the mainstream, he would somehow lose his edge. "I'm paranoid, or scared, about becoming sanitised. I don't want to be known as the hip-hop geezer for people that don't like hip hop." But there was also the expectation that he would continue the success of Run. "It's a weight on the shoulders. That's why there was a bit of angst getting Awfully Deep ready. I had to go through a bit of pain."
Smith denies he was serious about giving up his music career. Instead, he contemplated leaving Roots Manuva behind to return to a low-key way of working. "I'm always saying I've had enough. It was never in my head to be out there, like I am now. That was an accident. I wanted to be like Zorro: wear a mask, not do too many PAs; but have a presence. It drives you nuts, all the attention, but there is an attraction to being the person on the front line."
He is also keen to gloss over the next line: "Tell the management not to waste good money/ sending me to the farms of the funny".
"I'll get into a legal battle if I start pointing fingers over that. But it is reflective about artistic figures having a rest, like George Best or Gazza. I'm not on that scale, but I have instances where I go off on a wild one. When people say you should have a rest, that just makes you worse. Leave me alone! I'm just me!"
Smith admits that he has changed his representation, moving from what he calls "street" management to the same management as Leftfield, the dance duo he collaborated with on the single "Dusted". "I wanted to get some reins on it and set some targets. Leftfield were always true to their art, even with Sony knocking on the door for a new album. I thought their management would be able to put up with me."
Not that everyone has been supportive. On the first single from his new album, "Colossal Insight", Smith talks about "bourgeois blacks" who are "far from convinced" with his work. "That's a big bone of contention. It's more about a snottiness than the actuality of the word. There's certain radio stations and video stations that don't deem me worthy, or black enough. People have this perception about music and like to put things in boxes. What they think of as hip hop nowadays is just straight pop music. People hate me for doing what is basically my hobby. It's murder, but it gives me freedom."
If anything sorted Smith out, it was becoming the proud father of a boy, now aged 21 months. "I'm much more angst-ridden about growing up now. I can't be singing about pissing in bottles anymore! Now I'm trying to get a pushchair on a bus with a screaming child and no one helping me. You bastards! Can't you see how hard it is?!"
"This album might be the last of the wildness. Get it all out of your system now! I have to make an attempt at an out-and-out pop record at some time in my career, but I'll do it on my own terms, see what I can get away with. Not like Steps, just a bit more easy on the housewives."
As he sings, again, on "Colossal Insight": "I should cut down this drinking/ Too many late nights and not enough thinking." Smith explains, "The way I live my life now is totally different. I've taken up rollerblading and dirt-biking, though I wasn't any good at that. The first record was a smoking album, Run Come Save Me was weed and champagne and Awfully Deep was nothing! Sober!"
He finally knuckled down in mid-2003. He recorded about 40 songs, plus another 60 audio doodles, even more than on his previous sessions, that led to him releasing the dub version of Run.
"I was just throwing mud at the walls. I didn't have any clear idea of what I wanted to do. Sometimes I wanted to scrap the whole lot. It was all self-inflicted, pretty crazy." It is all a bit much for Roots, who now has to worry about paying for engineers and studio time. "Don't tell anyone people's wages!" he exclaims.
After an epic, 18-month, stint, Smith has come up with a record that explores the mind of someone at odds with the world around him. Awfully Deep's title track records the comedown after Run's carefree "Dreamy Days". There is also "Chin High", a stern anthem over disorienting drum and bass patterns where Smith barks "The choice is there ain't no choice but to pursue it".
Smith is at pains to point out this is not meant to be a doleful experience. Instead, we are meant to look for the "dingy" humour within. He denies, though, that he has aimed for a darker album. "Because I didn't want to be mainstream, I've swung to the other side. I've become more outrageous. I hope my past albums have been a little awkward and strange, but I've cranked it up on this album. It's supposed to be a peculiar niceness. A dangerous beautifulness. It's like the way a film like Fargo makes you uneasy, but it's good with it."
So we should not take every line at face value. Smith has pushed himself to explore different personas on this record, as with the murderous jilted lover on "The Falling" "trapped in a downward spiral of drugs, weapons and STDs. "Russian roulette with a naked flame/ Dangerously slow, but in the fast lane".
"I was trying to play the character of a person that drinks too much at a family dinner and starts going off on one. I wanted to move beyond the actuality of my own moral fabric."
Despite his "peculiar niceness", this ought to be Smith's most accessible album so far. From the trip-hop sparseness of Brand New, through the twisted funk of Run to his current recording, this determined rapper-cum-producer has worked at developing his own tuneful style. With an insistent electro pulse and his first decent chorus, "Witness (1 Hope)" was head and shoulders above any other track of Smith's second album. Its arresting layers of analogue sound set a benchmark that almost every track on Awfully Deep matches.
His next challenge is to take the album out on the road. In the past, Smith has relied on his easy-going charisma to make two turntables, backing tracks and a microphone work in some fairly large spaces. But now he has put together a band. They played 12 gigs last year and he admits he is still finding his feet.
"I get into different modes. Sometimes I want to be hip hop's Shaun Ryder, sometimes I want to be Henry Rollins. Sometimes I want to be Frank Sinatra. When it's right and you're in the zone together you can totally freak people out."
After a lukewarm reception at London's Somerset House during the West Indies test series last summer, Smith and his band blew away a crowd of techno-heads at Barcelona's Sonar electronica festival. A date at the Brixton Academy, Smith's home-town venue, is going to be a different prospect. "I'm totally petrified. I was hoping no one would turn up, but now we've sold 2,000 tickets. I keep thinking I'm going to see Mrs Ross from my primary school. I am not looking at anyone!"
Whatever traumas Smith went through to record Awfully Deep, he does seem to be over them. Now he is looking forward to his next trip to the studio. "I want to go back in and make another one. I've got so many ideas now. It's a job now, a job that I like." Let us look forward, then, to raps about the difficulties of taking pushchairs on public transport.

The problem of the euro has become the problem of Gordon Brown. Tony Blair has made the mistake of allowing his Chancellor to take the dominant role in determining whether and when the referendum will take place.
The problem of the euro has become the problem of Gordon Brown. Tony Blair has made the mistake of allowing his Chancellor to take the dominant role in determining whether and when the referendum will take place.
This is a frustrating and faintly absurd position for everyone who wants Britain to make the right decision on the euro. Gordon Brown has made himself the key figure in the whole debate. No referendum can be called until he says so and no referendum can be won unless he joins in the "yes" campaign with some enthusiasm.
Brown's political position may be honourable. I have always believed that his underlying opinion is similar to my own. He says that he is in favour in principle of Britain joining the single currency. He made some sensible announcements in his last Budget about looking at the possibility of adopting the EU measure of inflation in place of our own flawed RPI and studying ways in which we might encourage fixed-rate mortgage finance for house purchase. He argues for liberal economic reform and more flexible labour markets across the EU, which are very desirable.
His enemies see darker motives. I regard Gordon Brown as my political opponent and I am a strident critic of his fiscal policies. But I do not regard him as a personal enemy and I have to admit that I rather like and admire him. I therefore discount the theories I hear from his enemies within the Labour Party that, for instance, he has decided that he will need the support of Rupert Murdoch to have a successful premiership.
I judge that he is suffering from quite uncharacteristic hesitation and indecisiveness. He seems inclined to push off a difficult decision into the uncertain future.
The economic case for the euro is always going to be subject to genuine debate. Distinguished economists line up on both sides, although I personally think that the best heavyweights are on the pro-euro side. Pro-Europeans like me believe that in the long run the upside consequences for Britain will far outweigh the downside. Britain's economy will be damaged if we stay out too long, but the effects, in terms of lost growth in trade and investment and lower rates of GDP growth compared with what we might otherwise achieve, will not be sudden but will take years to show.
It would be a mistake to join in the wrong economic conditions but Gordon is wrong if he believes that we can wait for some perfect combination of political and economic circumstances in which every expert is agreed that the time is right and every critic is silenced.
The Irish joined the euro at a time when they had to reduce their interest rates sharply. Every British euro-sceptic predicted that they would suffer an inflationary disaster as a result of the "one size fits all" interest rate policy. The Irish economy has continued to thrive inside the euro-zone and it continues to outperform the British economy.
The slow pace of economic reform inside some continental countries, particularly Germany, is a much bigger problem for them than it is for the British. It gives us a competitive advantage over them inside the single market, as it would within the euro-zone. We would benefit if our French and German markets could return to higher growth, but their domestic problems are no more a reason for staying out of the euro than they would be for leaving the single market. Germany's problems are not caused by the single currency nor the policies of the European Central Bank.
Our economy is now more convergent with the major economies of Western Europe than ever. I have always said that the exchange rate made it impossible to join in recent years but the euro has now strengthened enough to remove that problem. Indeed there is a danger that if the pound devalues further we will see a return of the problems of inflation in Britain.
The arguments in favour of the euro that Gordon Brown has always agreed with, in terms of an end to exchange-rate risk, improved competitiveness through price transparency and a boost to productivity, remain as strong as ever. If the Chancellor wants to make the case for further delay he had better have strong arguments.
I look forward to reading the Treasury studies and it was a good idea to commission them. However my old colleagues in the Treasury cannot be expected to produce tablets of stone to settle the issue. They will produce high-quality analysis, but different civil servants will privately hold different views about the final decision. They are capable of providing the Chancellor with the best arguments in support of whichever answer he decides to give.
If Gordon Brown pronounces that we must continue to "wait and see" he must describe the next steps in the process and the broad timescale within which this is to be concluded. Timeless uncertainty is damaging to Britain's interests. Everyone who agrees in principle that it will be in Britain's interests to join believes that we are very near to the time at which we should decide. Even hard-line euro-sceptics are demanding a referendum now to end the uncertainty.
Gordon Brown has manoeuvred himself into a position where one man has too much power in his own hands on this subject. He will burn his fingers very badly if he does not at least indicate that we are almost ready to take the big decision in Britain's national interest.

Meet my newest Garden Party Girl, Flora Lamb. From her aqua hair and floral dress to her yellow stockings decorated with checked ribbon laces, she exudes a sunny positivity.
Flora is the sous chef at "The Pink Radish", a vegetarian bistro in town. She is a whiz at making refrigerator pickles, condiments, salsas and spreads from whole, natural ingredients. When not inventing new dishes she can be found sewing home decor items. She is learning to quilt through classes at a local fabric store. She and her husband Karl, a dentist, love taking their dog, Charlie, hiking in the mountains on weekends.
Like all my Garden Party Girl dolls, Flora loves to dress for the season. She adores the spring outfits and hats at PinkGingerKitty. Which hat should she buy for spring parties? She can't decide between pink, blue or minty green.
Flora and Frances are good friends. They are bagging up Easter treats for the neighborhood children. Flora fills her bags with colorful yarn pompoms for calorie-free wholesome fun. Frances prefers bags filled with tasty chocolates.
Flora thinks this blue bell-sleeve coat and beret would add pizzaz to any spring event!
1. Mint Green with Felt Flower 2. Rose Pink with Vintage Flowers 3. Blue with Felt Flower 4. Light Pink with Felt Flower
New hats have been added to my PinkGingerKitty shop! The Garden Party Girl dolls now have lots of fashionable options for dressing up this spring and beyond.
The dolls attended an art show at the PinkGingerKitty salon where they had a chance to try on the new hats. The lovely artwork in the salon came from Art Parts Creative Reuse Center. They are the fruit of two prolific Boulder artists who recently died, Ann Luce and Sybil Rew. Ann and Sybil's families generously donated their studio contents to Art Parts CRC, along with a few of their painting studies.
Birdie wears pink shades very well. Suzi likes to wear a bold hat with a ladylike coat. Portrait of a woman by Ann Luce.
Birdie and Suzi love the dramatic folded felt hats with their whimsical flowers.
Naomi loves blue hats and blue coats. They go so well with her blue hair! Painting by Sybil Rew.
Hollyhock painting by Ann Luce.
The new doll hats were made to mix and match with the felt coats available at PinkGingerKitty. I am happy to combine listings for you to save on shipping!
The Garden Party Girl dolls are thrilled to see spring hats appearing at PinkGingerKitty. They've gathered in the main salon to try them on. The hats are easy to mix and match with the bell sleeve coats added to the shop earlier in the week. Their yummy colors makes it hard to chose just one!
Each doll favors a certain color scheme but it's always fun to try on something new!
Penelope thinks this coat and hat would be lovely to wear at Easter, or perhaps on spring outing someplace where there are lots of tulips.
No matter what your doll's hair color there's a hat here that will make her swoon. Just pick your favorite colors and you can't go wrong.
Birdie just can't decide so she wants one of each!
Frances thinks blue and white is perfect for her planned trip to the coast.
Which is your favorite?
1. Blue and white 2. Peach and pink 3. Purple 2 Tone 4. Blue and purple 5. Pink and fuchsia
Just in time for spring: ladylike bell sleeve doll coats! These pretty felt coats fit my Garden Party Girl dolls. They have long gathered sleeves and a bow on the front of the coat that conceals a hook and eye closure.
These coats add charming élan to your doll and come in a range of colors to compliment any doll. They are more fitted coats than the coat that comes standard with each Garden Party Girl Doll.
Update your doll's wardrobe for spring: pair a new coat with a hat from the shop for extra flair. I'm happy to combine your listings to save on shipping costs.
1. Blue Coat 2. Light Pink Coat 3. White Coat 4. Dark Pink Coat
These dolls are taking a spring break by the seashore in their new coats.
Frances looks fetching in a pink coat and hat.
Happy first day of spring!
Happy St. Patrick's Day from Myrtle and the Garden Party Girl dolls! We hope your day is full of good cheer knowing that spring is just around the corner.
The girls are enjoying mint tea today while modeling new spring coats coming soon to PinkGingerKitty. These handmade bell-sleeved felt coats have a front bow concealing a hook and eye closure underneath. They look lovely with any hat and add instant charm to your doll's wardrobe. These felt coats fit my Garden Party Girl dolls and will be available in a range of colors in the shop on Monday, March 20th.
They are inspired by the ladylike style of Southern Belles from Charlotte, NC to Savannah, GA. Myrtle is planning a trip to the south this spring and wants one in every color!
Nothing goes better with a new coat than a hat and a rope of pearls!
Myrtle gifted each of her guests with party swag: a bag of mint tea and the book "Happiness is..." by Lisa Swerling and Ralph Lazar. The book details "500 ways to be in the moment" with clever observations and cute illustrations.
From the book, here are moments guaranteed to be happy: watching birds from your window in the morning, spotting the first ladybug of spring, pouring over a map to plan an adventure and planning a big party. The Garden Party Girl dolls love moments like these!
The dolls would like to add one more guaranteed happiness moment: shopping for new clothes at PinkGingerKitty!
Suzi chose a green denim jacket and hat set for her St. Patrick's Day outfit.
May you find plenty of happiness moments this weekend!
Guess who just arrived at PinkGingerKitty? Garden Party Girl doll Frances Delmont, a hospital administrator and collector of exotic succulents! Frances is a world traveler, always going to sunny, hot climates. She especially loves Palm Springs in California. She hopes that one day she can retire there in a mid-century home with a kidney shaped pool surrounded by palm trees.
Frances is made from a mix of new cotton and muslin fabrics with ribbon details. She is 23" long, 13" sitting height (59 cm, 33 cm). She is stuffed with hypoallergenic Polyfil. She wears a multi-color paisley cotton dress with a dark pink fabric belt and pink grosgrain bow. Her shoes match her dress and have magenta grosgrain ties. Her knickers are pink and white gingham. Her dress, shoes and knickers are sewn securely to her body.
Frances comes with a removable dark pink felt coat and matching folded felt hat decorated with a pink bow and a pink and blue embroidered felt flower.
Frances has magenta pink wool yarn hair attached securely in a flattering bob. Her hand-embroidered face features brown eyes and a dark pink heart-shaped mouth. Her limbs are flexible and she can be posed several ways. Her arms open wide for hugs or can be crossed to show a bit of spunk.
Hot pink is such a happy color, isn't it?
Frances sits among her favorite succulent plants. She loves the variety of shapes and colors and the fact that they need very little water.
Frances is friends with Penelope. They both like visiting botanical gardens in search of colorful blooms. At this time of year they head straight for the conservatory so they can enjoy the humid heat while looking at orchids and palms. Penelope is wearing a light purple coat and hat, available from PinkGingerKitty.
New in the shop: felt coats in a variety of colors! These are fun to mix and match to your doll for a spring update or to match your doll to your decor.
Meet my newest Garden Party Girl doll, Suzi Jenkins. Suzi is a pediatrician who speaks five languages. She is married to a software engineer named Grant. Together they are restoring a Victorian cottage in the country. The house has extensive acreage with formal gardens and a pretty stable where they board their Arabian horses, Gray and Peony. Along with home renovation, Suzi and Grant love to go antiquing. Suzi collects blue and white china, an obsession that began when she inherited her grandmother's set of Blue Willow china.
Suzi adds bright spring color to the Garden Party Girl doll collection. She is available in my Etsy shop, PinkGingerKitty.
Suzi is made from a mix of new cotton and muslin fabrics with ribbon details. She is 23" long, 13" sitting height (59 cm, 33 cm) and stuffed with hypoallergenic Polyfil.
Her multi-color patterned cotton dress has a coral fabric belt with a navy blue grosgrain bow. Her shoes match her dress and have navy blue grosgrain ties. Suzi's knickers are aqua and white floral fabric. Her dress, shoes and knickers are sewn securely to her body.
Suzi wears a removable salmon pink felt coat and matching folded felt hat decorated with a green and white ribbon, a navy bow and a pink embroidered flower. Her hair is salmon pink acrylic/rayon yarn sewn securely into a flattering bob. She has a hand-embroidered face featuring sea blue eyes and a pink heart shaped mouth.
Suzi keeps several cats at her clinic to comfort and distract children coming in for a checkup. The pink felt kitten, above, is named Rosy. (Downloadable felt kitty pattern from DelilahIris on Etsy.)
Suzi and Grant just finished painting the kitchen shelves French blue to show off Suzi's china collection. Suzi has endless ideas about how to update and add on to their country house. She can't wait until they both retire so they can live in the country full time.
Grant is more interested in the garden and stables than the house interior. He spends a lot of time online looking at specialty garden catalogs. He plans to install a pear orchard this summer at the end of the kitchen garden.
Suzi is available in my shop, should you desire a colorful doll companion to share your renovation dreams with.
Have a great week!

Focusing, Testing and Getting Ready
Even though it's been a short month, we haven't been short on getting things ready with Brightswitch.
Testing Update
3-way configuration compatibility
Being compatible with traditional 3-way wiring is a must for modern homes where up to 90% of switches are installed with a second or third switch controlling a single light source.
Our continued and expanding testing in homes shows that in some 3-way installations, Brightswitch can end up in a situation where another traditional switch on the circuit causes the Bright to loose power for a moment, causing it to reset. We are adding a feature to help protect against this.
In addition, we are enhancing the way Brightswitch works in 3-way configurations so that on/off status is accurately represented, no matter the position of the other switches. This makes installation and use much easier and intuitive when combined with other switches (traditional or more advanced).
Z-Wave hubs and control
For many folks interested in smart home technology, the capability to not only control other Z-Wave products, but also the ability to be added to their existing or new Z-Way hubs is a major consideration. During our in-home testing we found that different hubs such as Smartthings, Wink and Vera each require individual adjustments and tuning within the Brightswitch software to work at optimum levels.
We are tuning the ability of Brightswitch to both be included for control by these hubs, and also connect and control other Z-Wave switches or lights that are linked to these hubs. This provides amazing power and distributed control of a smart home lighting network at each Brightswitch location and insures commands such as Brightswitch "House On" can control much more than just the devices linked directly to the Brights.
Production Update
Hardware production continues to advance here and offshore with our goal still focused on the end of the quarter.
A very exciting time as we transition from development to production. Thanks again for all of your support, suggestions and patience!
Best Regards,
The Brightswitch Team
