The driver was texting while operating a city of Los Angeles metro-rail. Because of this experience and many others, his company <a href="http://text-nation.com/" target="_blank">Text-Nation.com</a> has taken an active role in texting and traffic safety across the United States. Recent developments involving texting and driving have caused alarm and in some states like California and laws have been created to stop the dangerous practice. The largest offender based on a study by </span></span><a href="http://www.donttextanddrive.org/" target="_blank"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">www.donttextanddrive.org</span></span></span></a><span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="font-size: 14px;"> , is </span></span><i><span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">young adults </span></span></i><span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">(86%).

By working with auto-makers, wireless device manufacturers, insurance providers, and other safety conscious companies we can promote good behavior and create technology that allows for safer communication while driving (i.e. voice text, and auto-reply text). How else will the members of Don’t Text and Drive – Save a Life get the word out? It has not been simple. Schools have turned down free presentations to student drivers and some companies that have been approached for support have blamed the economy for their lack of effort. Text-Nation has so much passion they are spending their own dollars to travel, create products and help spread the message. “You can’t place a dollar amount on saving someone’s life. Life is priceless. I’m using all of my resources and contacts to drive this message home”, says Christina Daverne, owner of BRMedia and member.

Seven-time Grammy nominated bassist/composer/conductor John Clayton has written and arranged music for Diana Krall, Natalie Cole, and Quincy Jones, and also for the American Jazz Philharmonic, Carnegie Hall Jazz Band, and Amsterdam Philharmonic. He won a 2008 Grammy for his arrangement on Queen Latifah’s album <i>Trav’lin’ Light</i>. His stirring arrangement of the <i>Star Spangled Banner</i>, performed by Whitney Houston earned him a platinum record. Legendary drummer Jeff Hamilton is one of the most sought after jazz musicians today. Jazz Journal International calls Hamilton "a most driving and technically accomplished drummer," and the Denver Post says Jeff "brought the crowd to its feet with his amazing hand-drumming." Describing Berg's work as a jazz pianist, the Los Angeles Times stated, “Berg burns hard, his fingers flying over the keyboard while his body nearly levitates off the bench. Exhilarating . . . filled with breakneck parallel runs, sudden rhythmic shifts and harmonic modulations that leave the crowd breathless!”</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">On <b>Friday, October 30th, 2009 at 8:00pm</b> in Gusman Concert Hall, the Finale of Festival Miami 2009 will feature Jeff Hamilton and John Clayton with the Henry Mancini Institute Orchestra and the Frost Concert Jazz Band for a spectacular evening of symphonic and big band jazz.
