New Dallas Hotel Announces Time Capsule Project

Fri, 03 Jul 2009 15:37:00 EDT

DALLAS, TX--(Marketwire - July 3, 2009) - What objects best typify life in Dallas during the summer of 2009? A Tony Romo jersey? An iPhone? A lipstick from Mary Kay?

Whatever they are, owners and designers of the new Aloft Hotel in downtown Dallas say they want to seal them in a time capsule for the next 50 years.

"This is a pivotal moment in the history of Dallas. We are truly as a crossroad regarding the life of this city and the downtown district, in particular," said Aloft Developer Ajay Kothari. He stood Friday morning in the foyer of the new hotel being built inside the 85-year-old Santa Fe railroad building on Young Street. "With the Arts District on the verge of completion, the Deck Park now under construction, and hotels like this one breathing new life into the city, we feel this year will be seen as the tipping point."

Icelandair a Top Performer in European Airline Rankings

Wed, 01 Jul 2009 08:33:00 EDT

REYKJAVIK, ICELAND--(Marketwire - July 1, 2009) - The recent AEA (Association of European Airlines) consumer report placed Icelandair near the top in all key areas. Among the accolades was the confirmation that Icelandair was the only one of the 28 surveyed carriers not to have cancelled a single flight over the winter.

Icelandair, which is Iceland's largest airline and one of the world's longest-serving international air carriers, was found to be the second most punctual European airline on long haul routes and the third most punctual on short and medium haul routes -- an important statistic for an airline that serves so many of its passengers with short stopovers at its hub airport as they fly between Europe and North America.

Hand-Held Cell Phone Use Still Down From Pre-Law Levels, According to Auto Club

Wed, 01 Jul 2009 04:10:00 EDT

LOS ANGELES, CA--(Marketwire - July 1, 2009) - Use of hand-held cell phones by drivers declined sharply from pre-law levels nearly a year after the state law went into effect last July, according to Automobile Club of Southern California observational roadside surveys of drivers on Orange County roads.

Prior to the law's implementation, the Auto Club found that 9.3% of drivers were using hand-held cell phones. Shortly after the law took effect, July 1, 2008, use declined to 3.3% -- a drop of 65% in one month, according to the Auto Club survey. Use of hand-held cell phones has crept up slightly in follow-up surveys, rising to 3.4% three months later, and increasing to 3.9% in the Auto Club's 10-month follow-up survey. Importantly, however, hand-held cell phone use remains 58% below where it was before the state implemented its cell phone law.
