Carlos Santos’s new book Mi Historia, an encouraging memoir about the author’s triumph in life amid the overwhelming tribulations along its path

January 27, 2021

HOMESTEAD, Fla., Jan. 27, 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The book Mi Historia was created by Carlos Santos. Carlos Santos is an author who was born in San Juan, Puerto Rico. He is also a survivor of a very tragic accident that changed his life.

Carlos Santos said this about his book: “The main reason and motive I had in my heart to write this book is I did it thinking about those people who often feel useless and worthless in this world, but it is not like that. If when reading this story of pain, tears, and despair, you do not experience encouragement and desire to improve in your life. You will make me feel very sad and uncomfortable with myself for having done a work that did not stimulate your own heart in the least. But you would make me happy if you began to see yourself as wonderful as God, your creator, sees you. In your whole life, you will go through a test so hard and difficult to bear; and if I could overcome it, I am 100 percent sure your trust is in God first and then in you and that you too will be able to overcome any anguish, tribulation, or battle you are going through. If I could win, how could you not achieve it? You are healthy and strong. Nothing and no one can harm you. Here’s an example of courage, determination, and self-improvement. My life today is different, and yours will be like this. It will change for a power that you will not be able to see, but you can feel.”

Published by Page Publishing, Carlos Santos’s new book Mi Historia will inspire the readers’ hearts with evoking and thought-provoking real-life moments in life that show the power of faith and hope in times of tribulation.

Consumers who wish to have their souls uplifted with spiritual wisdom that transforms and heals life can purchase Mi Historia in any bookstore or online at Apple iTunes, Amazon.com, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.

ZF Launches Series Production for new EV Braking System

January 26, 2021

LIVONIA, Mich., Jan. 26, 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — ZF confirms its position as a technology and system supplier for electromobility with a new series production order. The latest in ZF brake control solutions will be established as standard in Volkswagen’s ID.3 and ID.4 models as well as in Volkswagen Group’s globally marketed modular e-drive system MEB platform. With its new brake control, ZF can help to meet high comfort and safety requirements. Furthermore, it optimizes the recovery of braking energy – increasing the range and everyday usability of electric vehicles.

Volkswagen Group’s order for the new ZF brake control system covers several million vehicles – starting with the recently introduced ID.3 and ID.4 and continuing with future models based on the manufacturer’s MEB e-drive platform MEB.

With an optimized software interface, ZF’s new braking system can be integrated and networked even more easily into the electronic architecture of the vehicles.

The ZF system also supports driver assistance features such as automatic emergency braking. In addition, ZF’s solution replaces previously necessary mechanical components (such as the parking lock) with software functions, which saves both weight and costs.

“We meet the trend toward electromobility with our entire range of technological solutions – not just in driveline technology,” says Wolf-Henning Scheider, CEO of ZF Group. “This supply order from Volkswagen emphasizes how our competencies for braking systems as well as for networked systems contribute to increasing the range of our customers electric vehicles. To this end, our systems help to meet high comfort and safety requirements.”

On a technical level, ZF brake control is based on a combination of the company’s electronic brake booster (EBB) and its electronic stability control (ESC). The system is part of a software network housed in the stability control unit. It helps meet stringent safety standards set by the European road safety association EuroNCAP. New testing protocols for functions such as automatic emergency braking drive the need for more powerful boost to provide braking force even faster and more dynamically.

The Nutrition Facts Label and MyPlate Can Help You Make Healthier Food Choices in 2021

January 26, 2021

SILVER SPRING, Md., Jan. 14, 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Thinking about making healthier food choices as part of your New Year’s resolutions, but not sure where to start? The newly released Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2020-2025 encourages Americans to make shifts in their food and beverage choices based on personal, cultural and traditional preferences in order to achieve a healthy dietary pattern. The updated Nutrition Facts label and MyPlate can serve as tools to help you set goals for a healthy dietary pattern and maintain them all year long!

Using the Nutrition Facts label to make healthier food choices.
The updated Nutrition Facts label can help you make informed choices that contribute to lifelong healthy eating habits and meet the recommendations from the Dietary Guidelines for Americans. The label provides important nutrition information about packaged food and drinks—from serving size to calories and nutrient information. So, what’s new on the label?

The serving size now appears in larger, bold font and some serving sizes have been updated. Serving sizes have also been updated to better reflect the amount people typically eat and drink.
Calories are now displayed in larger, bolder font.
Daily Values have been updated.
Added sugars, vitamin D, and potassium are now listed on the label. Manufacturers must declare the amount in addition to percent Daily Value for vitamins and minerals.

Here are a few ways you can make the most of the label in the new year.

Use the Nutrition Facts label to monitor calories and use serving information to help you choose the right portion sizes for you.
When shopping for groceries, use the label to compare different food items. More often, choose items higher in dietary fiber, vitamin D, calcium, iron, and potassium, and lower in saturated fat, sodium, and added sugars.

Planning your meals while keeping MyPlate in mind.
MyPlate shows the five food groups that are the building blocks of a healthy diet using a familiar image: a place setting for a meal. Here are a few ways you can use MyPlate to stick with your resolutions in 2021.

Try to include all five food groups (vegetables, fruits, grains, protein foods, and dairy) in your meals. To make sure you’re getting the nutrients you need, choose a variety of foods and beverages from each food group.
Make small changes to your meals so that they are as complete as possible. For example, if you are cooking pasta, add veggies to the sauce. Or if you’re craving something sweet, cut up fruit for dessert!

Learn more about how you can use the Nutrition Facts label and MyPlate together to make healthier choices: https://www.fda.gov/food/new-nutrition-facts-label/using-nutrition-facts-label-and-myplate-make-healthier-choices.

Nelson Alfredo Benítez Tobar’s new book De Campesino Tímido a Líder Comunitario, a riveting read of a man’s journey from humble beginnings to becoming a community leader

January 26, 2021

CHICAGO, Jan. 26, 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The book De Campesino Tímido a Líder Comunitario was created by Nelson Alfredo Benítez Tobar. Nelson is an author and a union organizer and community organizer as well as the cofounder of the United Ecuador Association.

Nelson said this about his book: “When a five-year-old boy had to move from Quito, the Ecuadorian capital, to the Caldera ranch in the Chota Valley, he accidentally entered the university of life. He understood at his tender age that from now on, his life was wrapped up in an exciting and unusual story.

The shy peasant will become a tireless fighter; a potential leader in his daily actions, unforgettable and supportive; and, above all, a radical in the fight for social justice. The scene of life takes place in Pimampiro (his birthplace), Ibarra, Quito, Machala, Guayaquil, and other cities of the Ecuadorian territory. Already in his maturity, he moved to Chicago, United States, the place of his last stay. He was not alien to love, illusion, and their counterpart heartbreak and disappointment. The unfailing conduit of this work is humor—that intelligent and lively humor—concomitant with it in this time so conflictive and brutal, a disturbing atmosphere is achieved, a delicate air of hope.”

Published by Page Publishing, Nelson Alfredo Benítez Tobar’s new book De Campesino Tímido a Líder Comunitario will intrigue the readers with moments of love, faith, resilience, and hard work that defined a man’s path of humility toward purposefulness as a great leader of men.

Ligia Chirivi Giraldo’s new book Añorando a mí Colombia, a resounding compendium that chronicles Colombia’s rich history and culture in literature and art

January 26, 2021

NEW YORK, Jan. 26, 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The book Añorando a mí Colombia was created by Ligia Chirivi Giraldo. Ligia is an author who was born in the city of Bogotá, Colombia. She is proud to be Colombian. She went to the NOVA Institute in West LA and graduated as an echo vascular technician.

Giraldo said this about his book: “The reason and the intention for which I made this book was to collect all my ‘writings’ distributed in the Colombian festivals—a request from some of my countrymen. Also, remember those grandparents’ sayings and song phrases? But most importantly, don’t forget our culture.

Year after year since I arrived in Los Angeles with my husband, sons, and daughters, I was showing my longing for Colombia and all its ‘ailments’ that it has complained about. I felt powerless because I couldn’t even ‘grumble’ when my country was discredited. This is why in an English with very high barriers, I shouted, ‘I am proud to be Colombian!’

Each ‘writing’ is a tear shed with great nostalgia, which has become an egg—yes, a condor egg, which needs incubation to be read so that if already converted into a pigeon, it begins to fly slowly until it reaches the height of their ancestors.”

Published by Page Publishing, Ligia Chirivi Giraldo’s new book Añorando a mí Colombia shares a profound and impassioned dedication to proclaiming the vast wealth of Colombian heritage and culture that will surely captivate people’s interest.

Consumers who wish to learn and appreciate the essence of Colombian culture can purchase Añorando a mí Colombia in any bookstore or online at Apple iTunes, Amazon.com, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.
