New LED lighting trends for 2012
The Immediate Future is Bright for the Incandescent Light Bulb and Austin Bluffs Lighting couldn't be happier!
Austin Bluffs Lighting was excited to share the news with us that congress effectively held off the phasing out of incandescent light bulbs!!
This is great news! This means you get the freedom to choose what type of light bulbs you want throughout your home, and what could be better than that?!
The Washington Times reports:
Congressional negotiators struck a deal Thursday that overturns the new rules that were to have banned sales of traditional incandescent light bulbs beginning next year.
That agreement is tucked inside the massive 1,200-page spending bill that funds the government through the rest of this fiscal year, and which both houses of Congress will vote on Friday. Mr. Obama is expected to sign the bill, which heads off a looming government shutdown.
Congressional Republicans dropped almost all of the policy restrictions they tried to attach to the bill, but won inclusion of the light bulb provision, which prevents the Obama administration from carrying through a 2007 law that would have set energy efficiency standards that effectively made the traditional light bulb obsolete.
Stopping the bulb ban was a chief GOP priority coming into this year, with all of the candidates seeking to become chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee saying they would push through a repeal. That bill cleared the House but Democrats blocked its consideration in the Senate.

A Call to Action
Staffer & Sons Construction is a local construction company that went out of thier way to help a deserving family! In September of this year with the help of the Colorado Springs Storm (a 13 year-old boys baseball team) sent out a "call to action" asking local companies to donate time, money and material to a good cause and the support was overwhelming!
Here at Coutura we are proud to have several companies who stepped up and donated in various ways. So a special thanks to Accent Landscapes, Tecc Painting and C&C Sand & Stone for contributing! We also wanted to thank Staffer & Sons as well as any other companies who supported, it is inspiring to see ther community come together!
Below are some before and after pictures, enjoy!
