Joel H Cano’s New Book Pecado Es Mi Nombre, A Gripping Narrative That Delves Into The Nature Of Sin That Has Caused Tragedy On Humanity Through Time
SUGAR HILL, Ga., Dec. 8, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The book Pecado Es Mi Nombre was created by Joel H Cano. Joel is an author born in Chihuahua, Mexico. He is a professor at the Latin American Theological Institute and a trained Christian leader.
Joel said this about his book: “When we think of the word sin, it does not make us such an unpleasant word. It seems that it has already taken part in our vocabulary and practical life. However, it carries an eternal weight on each person who moves through planet earth. According to statistics, in the six thousand years of human history, we have had thirty years of peace. Most of history is recorded by wars—wars between nations, internal wars, wars between peoples, war in neighborhoods, war in families, and personal wars. Many times, we see ourselves debating with ourselves. What has caused these wars from the beginning to the present day?”
Published by Page Publishing, Joel H Cano’s new book Pecado Es Mi Nombre will enlighten the readers on the topic of sin and how it has haunted humankind for millennia by causing major and minor conflicts that destroy the soul.
Consumers who wish to learn about the dangers of sin in life can purchase Pecado Es Mi Nombre in any bookstore or online at Apple iTunes, Amazon.com, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.

Kia’s Julie Kurcz Named to Automotive News’ List of 100 Leading Women in North American Auto Industry
IRVINE, Calif., Dec. 8, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Julie Kurcz, executive director of product quality for Kia Motors America, has been named to the Automotive News 100 Leading Women in the North American Auto Industry for 2020. The list, compiled every five years since 2000 by a team of Automotive News editors and reporters, is comprised of talented and influential women of various disciplines who make a significant impact on the automotive industry. Kurcz is being recognized for the second time.
“This remarkable achievement is well-deserved, but not entirely surprising,” said Sean Yoon, president & CEO, Kia Motors North America & Kia Motors America. “Julie has been a key player in Kia’s incredible success story and is responsible for our brand earning several major accolades in product quality and reliability. We are very proud of her and remain thankful for the talent and leadership she brings to the Kia team every day.”
Julie’s fascination for the automobile sparked at a very early age when she would spend time working with her engineer father in the garage. After college, she shifted smoothly into the auto industry as a manufacturing engineer, and in 2009, she joined Kia with the hopes to help transform the brand into an industry leader in quality and craftsmanship. More than up to the task, Julie has been a key contributor to Kia’s meteoric rise and its world-class model line here in the U.S. Her knowledge, work ethic, and attention to detail were significant factors in Kia becoming J.D. Power’s highest ranked mass market brand in initial quality for six consecutive years.
“I’ve been with Kia for 11 years now and there are so many wonderful moments I’ve experienced along the way, but the launch of the Telluride was a particularly great source of pride for me,” said Kurcz. “Having the opportunity to work with a great team and make a personal contribution to such an amazing vehicle is a highlight in my career, and it has been a privilege to be a part of the Kia team and the evolution of the brand.”
To compile the list, the selection committee focuses on women who make influential decisions within their organizations. Consideration is based on the size and importance of the candidate’s business, the health and direction of the business, and the overall arc of the candidate’s career. Emphasis is put on women in key product-development and manufacturing roles.
“It’s humbling and I’m very honored to be on this list of such accomplished women,” said Kurcz. “It’s very inspiring for me to read the background and experience of so many diverse and remarkable leaders. To be considered among this group means a lot to me.”

StarKist® Partners with Feed the Children, Joshua’s Heart for Special Event Benefiting 400 Miami Families During Hungriest Year in Modern History
MIAMI, Dec. 7, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — StarKist Co., a socially responsible company that empowers people to live a healthy lifestyle, is partnering with Feed the Children and Joshua’s Heart to bring No Hunger Holidays to 400 Miami families during the season of giving.
The drive-thru event will be held Monday, December 7, from 9:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. at Mt. Pleasant Baptist Church, 11591 SW 220th St. During the event, each family will receive a 25-pound box of food, including StarKist products; a 15-pound box of essentials such as shampoo, conditioner, lotion and personal-care items; a box of Avon products and Disney storybooks and other items. Miami-Dade County will also be providing fresh food for families.
“At StarKist, we are grateful for our ongoing partnership with Feed the Children during this unprecedented time,” said Andrew Choe, StarKist President and CEO. “There will be more empty plates this holiday season than ever before, and it is estimated that one in four children will be food insecure. We believe that no child should go hungry in this country, but we know the need is great. We’ve all seen the effect COVID-19 has had on communities, and together we hope to help those in need, especially during this pandemic.”
Throughout the past 11 years, StarKist has contributed nearly 500,000 pounds of tuna and chicken products to help food-insecure children and families across the U.S., and more than $600,000 to support Feed the Children’s disaster and emergency response efforts.

With nearly 16% of Miami residents living below the poverty line, holidays can be a stressful time for families.
“Thanks to our generous partners at StarKist, we are able to help these families rest a little easier knowing they don’t have to worry about where their next meal is coming from this holiday season,” said Travis Arnold, Feed the Children president and CEO. “We know that when we combine our efforts, we have a greater impact on the lives of the families who need us most.”

Honda Launches Pre-Owned Initiative, Adding Used-Vehicle Inventory to HondaCertified.com
TORRANCE, Calif., Dec. 7, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Honda has launched an enhanced sales portal to include non-certified used vehicles on HondaCertified.com as the latest step in the brand’s effort to simplify the shopping and vehicle purchasing process for first-time buyers. This initiative makes Honda the first mass-market brand to offer non-certified pre-owned vehicles for sale on its own website. Rising new-vehicle transaction prices make used and Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) vehicles an increasingly important entry point to vehicle ownership for both young and first-time buyers. Honda’s comprehensive approach provides customers more online shopping options when looking for pre-owned Honda vehicles.
Honda’s latest initiative builds on the automaker’s award-winning Certified Pre-Owned vehicle program, HondaTrue Certified, already an important gateway to attract new customers to the Honda brand. HondaCertified.com now enables customers to search dealer inventories of Honda used vehicles, including up to 10 previous model years, in addition to the existing CPO vehicle inventory of late model cars. As with CPO vehicles, used Honda vehicles offered on HondaCertified.com will have recalls addressed by Honda dealer service experts prior to sale.
“With the continued rise in new-vehicle prices, the first vehicle purchase for many buyers will come from the used-car market, and our upgraded website makes this process more simple and enjoyable,” said Dan Rodriguez, manager of auto remarketing at American Honda. “As a leading brand among first-time and younger buyers, expanding our branded website to include used vehicles up to ten years old offers customers more high value options with quality Honda products and their local Honda dealer standing behind their purchase.”
Honda will add features to this used-vehicle initiative in the months ahead, aligned with the brand’s Shop Simple by Honda online buying tool, enabling customers to complete most of the purchase process of Honda pre-owned vehicles in a digital fashion.
More information on Honda’s used-vehicle offerings and existing Honda Certified Pre-Owned vehicles can be found at HondaCertified.com.
