Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance is one of the most ambitious, advanced and immersive experiences ever undertaken by Walt Disney Imagineering. The innovative attraction takes guests aboard a full-size transport shuttle before they are captured by a Star Destroyer and find themselves in the middle of a climactic battle between the dark side of the First Order and the light side of the Resistance, including BB-8 and Rey. The adventure blurs the lines between fantasy and reality on a scale never seen before in a Disney attraction. Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance brings guests face to face with some fan favorite Star Wars characters, including Resistance heroes Rey, BB-8, Poe and Finn, as well as Kylo Ren and General Hux of the First Order.

  Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge opened at Disneyland on May 31, 2019. The epic new land is the largest and most technologically advanced single-themed land expansion ever in a Disney park. Guests are transported to a galaxy far, far away in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, to Black Spire Outpost on the planet Batuu, a new location in the story that began in 1977 with the first Star Wars film. Guests become part of the story as they sample galactic food and beverages, enter an intriguing collection of merchant shops and take the controls of the most famous ship in the galaxy aboard another attraction in the land, Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run.

VISALIA, California, Jan. 7, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The book Poemas Para Siempre was created by Mayra López. Mayra López is an author born in Michoacán Mexico. She then arrived in the United States and continued studying in the city of Visalia, California, where she still resides.

Mayra López said this about her book: “In this book of poetry you will find poems that will make you feel every feeling in full bloom. Others will simply put you to think about life as a whole. When you read them, you will feel connected because we have all felt in some way toward this world, toward some people, and everything around us. Simple poetry with a lot of lucidity that you will like to read more than once, which will make you feel that there is always someone else who thinks and feels like you. A small book with big words which, if you pay attention, will delicately wrap you in my world. In each poem, you will live a story, you will feel each feeling as your own, and you will understand that we are not so different when we put aside our complexes when we expose our deepest feelings and display our dreams and our desires. You will remember how fragile we are under certain circumstances that we are discovering along the way, that fate is teaching us and from which we are learning. Poetry is a beautiful freedom of expression, it is being able to put oneself in the place of the other and let feelings flow with words that silence the heart, but from another point of view, from another perspective. Here are some examples of this and my own story here. Poems Forever, a book of poems, thoughts, and something else.”

Published by Page Publishing, Mayra López’s new book Poemas Para Siempre will grace readers with heartwarming insights etched within poems that reflect a blossoming life.

Consumers who wish to partake of the blessedness of this poetic work can purchase Poemas Para Siempre in any bookstore, or online at Apple iTunes, Amazon.com, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.

SACRAMENTO, Calif., Jan. 6, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The book Isla de la Esperanza was created by Ramon “Monsho” Hernandez, he shares: “She left her adolescence and entered the youth in an unexpected way, seeing herself surrounded by loneliness, waiting for her pregnancy to arrive in an uncomplicated way.

The first year, he survived with abandoned food, lots of water and canned food, lacking electricity, gas, and drinking water. Instead, a source of clear and pure water flowed from the very bowels of the extinct volcano that was the island.

Finding a way to be self-sufficient, producing food in places previously designed for that purpose, and discovering magical places, he found peace, tranquility, and hope necessary to continue waiting for the day of rescue.

Four years after the arrival, a visitor arrives, who was a companion of tragedy in that fateful airplane. He promises to expose his own life in exchange for taking her out of that wonderful place that, although a prison, was a magical, mystical, and very real place as unreal.

When the rescue arrives, he realizes that it will be somewhat difficult for his son, who was born with a deficiency. That way, he experiences a difficult reality until he reaches his hometown. Everything is clarified, and as the inevitable hour of his son approaches, he realizes the mystery by which he managed to survive all that time on the island of hope.”

Published by Page Publishing, Ramon “Monsho” Hernandez’s new book, Isla de la Esperanza, follows the fascinating life of a man who survives the toils of a faraway with courage, ingenuity, and hope, along with a realization that brings wonder to his heart.

Consumers who wish to learn the power of faith while facing the arduous reality through the life of the book’s protagonist can purchase Isla de la Esperanza in any bookstore, or online at Apple iTunes, Amazon.com, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.
