Boston, MA Hotel Announces Green Partnership With Clean The World

PRLog (Press Release) - Aug 11, 2011 - Boston, MA – The Westin Boston Waterfront has partnered with Clean the World to reduce global disease by recycling hotel soap products.

The Clean the World program recycles bar soap, shampoo, conditioner, lotion, and bath gels discarded by hotels, which are re-milled into new amenity products and distributed to countries with hygiene epidemics. Thousands of North American hotels discard millions of pounds of soap and shampoo on a daily basis.

Each year more than five million deaths occur from lack of proper hygiene, with the majority among children under five years old. Simple hand washing can reduce the spread of disease, amazingly, the essential items for proper hand washing are not available to millions worldwide.

PARADISE AT Pikes Peak LogoPRLog (Press Release) - Aug 05, 2011 - A picturesque community with dramatic views of Pikes Peak has new ownership, Park State Bank & Trust, according to Tony Perry, President and CEO of Park State Bank & Trust and Project Director for Paradise at Pikes Peak.

“In these challenging economic times, we assessed that it would be good for the community and for the bank to sell these homesites at Paradise,” Perry said.

“Our goal is to maintain property values for those already living there and to showcase the value of future investment,” Perry said.

Perry will be responsible for project development and will have financial authority on sales.  “Basically, I will be able to meet with buyers and get them the financing so that they can realize their dreams, ” he said.

With unobstructed views of Pikes Peak and easy access to the Front Range it is an ideal location to build a dream home or even a vacation house.  Currently, there are  only 22 homesites remaining in this serene environment. “We have sold several home sites recently and  building is already in progress,” he said.

Situated near HWY 24 there is the benefit of an easy commute to Colorado Springs and the airport. Nearby shopping and restaurants are within walking distance. A nice mix of evergreens and scrub oak compliment this beautiful development. The development features underground utilities, municipal water and sewer and paved streets.

“Clearly, this is a premier area to live in the community,” Perry said. “We have limited homesites that are awaiting the personal signature for those who want to live in the mountains,” he said.  

"I think this location in the heart of the mountains is the type of property that will attract new resdients to Woodland Park," he said.  "We have a lot of great local builders and trades people who are ready to help now.  We've put together a team to make this happen."

“You are led into the development by cobblestone streets, a roundabout and bronze sculptures.  The development has exciting playscapes for children close by and much more.”

To showcase the features of the development, Perry will meet with Woodland Park area realtors and the local realtor’s association soon to describe the development, his assembled team and referral program for qualified leads.  “I am also going to offer a unique set of incentives for the first few buyers on financing and construction,” Perry said.

Perry will also meet with local residents, city and county officials, the Home Builders Association, local construction companies and general contractors to describe the project.  Private tours will be offered. Call 1-866-267-6167

Perry plans to reach out to an international audience.   “We aren’t stopping at our borders.  With the visitors that come from other countries to vacation we need to let them know about this great opportunity to invest in a community that they and their families like,” he said.

The community has a new logo that reflects the exciting aspects of the properties being offered.  The logo is prominently displayed on community signs.

A website is available with a “Buyer’s Portfolio” containing useful information and community highlights.   “We want a compelling online presence to showcase the property and attract buyers,” Perry said.   Categories include:  The Homesites, Your Vision, Signature Location, Amazing Views, Photo Gallery and Contact Information.  An interactive map is available for both the homesites and key attractions within 2 hours.

PRLog (Press Release) – Jul 26, 2011 – The J.D. Power and Associates 2011 U.S. Automotive Emerging Technologies Study revealed that 86 percent of smartphone owners use their device while in the car. This makes technology like the Ford Sync AppLink system, which provides hands-free access to mobile applications, more vital than ever. Ourisman Ford, an Alexandria Ford dealership, is proud to stock six new 2012 Ford models featuring the Ford Sync AppLink system. This includes the 2012 Ford Mustang, Fusion, Fiesta, F-150, Expedition, and E-Series.

The innovative Ford Sync AppLink system allows drivers to safely use their smartphone applications while driving. This includes accessing your favorite songs, artists, or musical genres on Pandora, listening to podcasts or radio shows with Stitcher SmartRadio, or staying connected to Twitter with OpenBeak, all by using simple voice commands.

“We understand more and more drivers are using their devices and their apps while in the car,” said Doug VanDagens, director of Ford Connected Services Solutions. “Ford is a part of the solution, offering voice-activated options such as Ford SYNC with AppLink on a broader range of our products, which gives more customers a smarter way to access their apps while driving that keeps their hands on the wheel and eyes on the road.”

Ford’s vision for the AppLink system does not stop with these existing applications, however. App developers interested in improving existing mobile applications for AppLink or even creating their own app can connect with Ford through the Ford Sync Mobile Application Developer Network. Currently, more than 2,500 developers have expressed interest in creating applications for the Ford Sync AppLink system.

Irvine MINI Of Orange County Confirms, MINI's Countryman Wanderlust Campaign Announces Winner

PRLog (Press Release) – Jul 21, 2011 – July 14, 2011– Irvine, Calif.- Irvine MINI is excited to confirm, MINI traveled the world with the MINI Countryman Wanderlust campaign and invited MINI fans to jump onboard and submit ideas for Wanderlust events in hopes of winning a new MINI.

MINI named a winner for the competition and delivered a brand new MINI Countryman to MINI Space member, Unixgal, who's elaborately documented "Cross-Country MINI Motoring Adventure" has earned herself a brand new MINI Countryman.

“ We are really excited that the MINI Countryman Wanderlust Campaign was a success,” said Darren Richie, General Manager of Irvine MINI. “ MINI lovers came from all over to support MINI and only one was able to return home with her own MINI Countryman,” he said.

Unixgal is actually Emily Stemmerich from San Mateo, California, and her solo motoring adventure combined a simple love of the open road with her MINI, Geocaching, and the desire to get out into the world and make new friends and experiences. Stemmerich herself pretty much sums it up when she said, "Calling this a simple road trip is an understatement."

During her epic journey from Northern California to North Carolina, Stemmerich showed the rare and inspiring dedication to wanderlust that MINI was looking for in a winner. In less than a month this spring, she traveled a total of 7,819 miles across 28 states. She plowed through thunderstorms in Oklahoma, braved hail and tornadoes in Memphis, Tennessee. She waded street flooding in Arkansas, and in Wyoming, the snow came down so hard that the eastern road into Cody was blocked by an avalanche.
