CHICAGO, Oct. 30, 2018 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Negocios Now founder Clemente Nicado received the “Latino Publisher of the Year” award during the National Association of Hispanic Publications (NAHP) convention, held October 24-26 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The judging panel, which included renowned editors and journalists and a Pulitzer prize-winner, considered Nicado’s three-decade-long journalistic career and his work as publisher of Negocios Now, an award-winning publication founded in 2007.

“This award is much more than an award, it’s a dream. I feel very fortunate to have received an award for my passion. My passion for good journalism, for making Negocios Now a publication that has a real impact in our community,” Nicado said.

The NAHP also gave Negocios Now two other honors: A Gold award for Outstanding Business Section and for Outstanding Video Promoting a Publication, solidifying Negocios Now’s reputation as the most highly decorated Latino business publication in the country over the last decade.

Negocios Now is a B2B Hispanic publication based in Chicago with digital national distribution. Through its Custom Division, its parent company Nicado Publishing is expanding Negocios Now to other markets, including Los Angeles, Houston, Miami, New York, and Philadelphia.

“The success of Negocios Now is not just due to my experience in the industry, but to the support that I have in the community and from a group of sponsors who believe in what we do. This award has been given to a small business that tries to help other small businesses with useful content that supports their growth and success. This rich interaction has made Negocios Now a unique and highly decorated publication,” Nicado said.

More about Clemente Nicado

Clemente Nicado is a Cuban Journalist with a tremendous passion for journalism that has earned him and his publication, Negocios Now, many awards over the past 10 years.

He was hired by the Chicago Tribune in 2003 to launch HOY, Chicago’s first daily Hispanic newspaper. Four years later, he founded Nicado Publishing Co. and launched Negocios Now, a national-award-winning publication focused on the Hispanic entrepreneur.

Nicado is a former international correspondent with 30 years of experience in journalism. He worked for Latin American News agencies for 10 years, covering a wide range of issues spanning the economy, trade, public safety, elections, Olympic Games, summits, finance, and immigration.

He is the author of “Así lo hicieron,” a 2012 book featuring profiles of outstanding Hispanic business owners in Chicago.

Since 2008, Nicado has received more than 20 national awards from the NAHP, the Catholic Press Association of US and Canada (CPA) and the Chicago Headline Club, including a Peter Lisagor Award for General Excellence in 2012. These achievements position Nicado as one of the most frequently awarded Hispanic journalists in the United States in the past 10 years.

In 2014, Nicado published the first “Who’s Who in Hispanic Chicago Special Edition” and held an accompanying gala, and one year later he launched “Latinos 40 Under 40” to recognize the new Latino generation. He is also an NAHP Board member.

Ovation Logo

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 29, 2018 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Ovation, America’s only arts network, has begun featuring local Bronx and Brooklyn artists in public service announcements on all its platforms as a continued commitment to support and highlight the arts community and diversity.  These PSAs, which feature artists and their contributions to their communities, are part of Ovation’s Stand For The Arts mission to raise awareness, protect access, and encourage action on behalf of the arts and culture. The announcement was made by Liz Janneman, EVP of Network Strategy, Ovation.

“The Power of Art is exemplified through these artists’ personal stories — their creativity, connection and innovation,” said Liz Janneman, EVP of Network Strategy, Ovation. “Ovation is proud to support and amplify their contributions to their communities.”

The following local NYC artists will be featured in Ovation’s Stand For The Arts public service announcements:

Genesis Tramaine is a Brooklyn-based mixed media painter. American Black cultural influences have a rich impact on the shape, structure and depth of each painting. Her social and political consciousness as a woman painter is informed by her constant challenges with the societal imbalances of race, class and gender.

Sharnika Power is a London-born spoken word poet based in Brooklyn. Her spoken word poetry is inspired by Brooklyn street art and hip hop and she uses it to effect social change.

LeRone Wilson is a Harlem-based sculptor and painter. His primary medium is beeswax, the oldest form of painting, used in ancient Kemet (Egypt). His sculpted wax paintings explore the complexities of the historical and cultural inferences of spirituality, identity and self.

Nicole “Artist Up” Watson is a Bronx-based spoken word artist known as Artist Up. She has appeared on many stages and platforms as a host, actor, and spoken word artist. Artist Up has recently hosted several shows titled Around the Fire on QPTV. She has opened for comedians such as JP Justice, Rob Stapleton, and Ray Dejon performing spoken word.

Steve Cas is a Brooklyn-based illustrator. He is an award-winning artist with a professional career that has spanned 20 years. He’s worked on numerous cutting-edge projects. Known for his inky stylized characters and an endless arsenal of computer skills.

Miracle Robinson is a Bronx-based 8-year-old designer. She created Styled by Miracle, a signature handcrafted accessories company for the girl who knows JUST what she wants, to address the hunger problem amongst homeless children in her city of New York.

Charles Rice-Gonzales and Arthur Aviles are the co-founders of BAAD! (The Bronx Academy of Arts and Dance). BAAD!’s arts programming gives voice to artists from underrepresented demographics and aids in dismantling paradigms of social injustices including sexism, racism, and homophobia in the Bronx and beyond.

Kim “Good Look” Seabrook is a Bronx-based spoken word poet. Poetry has been a form of therapy for Kim Seabrook which led her to open “Creative Soul Concepts,” a workshop program which includes writing skills, poetry lessons, healing and meditation methods.

“I would like to start by pointing out that Ovation is phenomenal for allowing artists to showcase their gifts to millions of people as they are one of the few stations,” said Nicole “Artist Up” Watson. “I am very pleased to have and have had the opportunity to be one of the artists of many trades from the Bronx to share my vision.”

“When you hear mainstream, you don’t hear people like me. People like me who raise awareness, help clean minds and provide positivity,” added Kim “Good Look” Seabrook. “Ovation has given me a platform to express who I am and what it is that I do. Ovation has given me the chance to connect with those of the same mindset which is way overdue.”

The artist PSAs can also be viewed within the interactive map (New York) at www.standforthearts.com.

Rebelle Rally Honda Pilot makes public debut

TORRANCE, California, Oct. 25, 2018 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — If Las Vegas is a city where anything goes, then the wild-looking Honda Rugged Open Air Vehicle Concept will fit right in. Joining the radical headlining vehicle, Honda’s other products on display will reinforce its commitment to on-road and off-road performance enthusiasts. Roadracing fans will get a thrill from the Honda Civic Type R TCR race car on display, recently driven by Ryan Eversley to Honda’s inaugural TCR Championship in the Pirelli World Challenge series. Off-road fans can take in the 2019 Honda Pilot recently driven more than 1,700 miles through the Nevada and California deserts during the Rebelle Rally. Also on display will be a fully accessorized 2019 Honda Insight, the Honda Ridgeline Overland Expedition, four motorcycles from Honda Powersports including the 2019 model year rebirth of the iconic Super Cub and Monkey and, for Honda’s youngest enthusiasts, the First Honda pedal car.

Rebelle Rally Honda Pilot makes public debut

Honda Rugged Open Air Vehicle Concept
For information about this unique concept vehicle, attend the Honda press conference at 1:30 p.m. on Oct. 30 at booth 24887 in the south-west corner of the Las Vegas Convention Center’s Central Hall. Or, visit hondanews.com at the same time where a press release, images and video will be available for viewing and download.

Honda Civic Type R TCR
Honda driver Ryan Eversley piloted this Honda Civic Type R TCR with RealTime Racing to the inaugural TCR Championship in the Pirelli World Challenge series this year. Eversley and his Honda Civic Type R TCR dominated the series with five wins and 11 podium finishes in the 12-race season. Based on the immensely popular Honda Civic Type R, the TCR version boasts numerous upgrades, resulting in 340 horsepower from the 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder. The Type R TCR also features a sequential 6-speed manual gearbox with a JAS twin-disc sintered-metallic clutch and paddle shifters. Other race-only modifications were made for safety considerations and to suspension and brake components to turn the already impressive Civic Type R into an all-out racecar.

THR-W Honda Civic Type R
Following last year’s successful run in showroom stock form, the Team Honda Research West (THR-W) racing team returns to the 25 Hours of Thunderhill. This year however, their Honda Civic Type R benefits from numerous race-bred upgrades, upping the ante with more horsepower and race-ready brakes and suspension. With engine modifications that include a custom intake system from Injen, ECU tuning by Hondata, and a racing down pipe and custom titanium exhaust system by RV-6, the THR-W Type R now puts out 380 horsepower. The suspension has been race-prepped with H&R racing springs and HPD World Challenge-spec adjustable dampers, new Paragon 6-piston brake calipers and 355mm rotors, and BF Goodrich R1 tires. Aerodynamic enhancements include a THR-W front splitter, a Honda Genuine Accessories full carbon rear wing, and carbon fiber hood and hatch from Seibon. Following a strict grams-counting diet plan, this year’s Type R comes in 200 pounds lighter compared to last year’s car.

Team Honda Research West is the West Coast arm of Honda’s grassroots road racing team. Founded in 1996 as a club team, THR-W embodies the Honda Racing Spirit while advancing associates’ technical skills and knowledge.

F3 Americas Race Car
Powered by a special version of the Civic Type R’s 2.0-liter DOHC VTEC® Turbo engine, Kyle Kirkwood has driven his Abel Motorsports Liger Crawford JS to the winner’s circle in almost every race this season. The Formula 3 America series follows on from the Formula 4 United States Championship, allowing competitors and other aspiring racers the next level of open-wheel competition. Combining affordability, modern technology, and the ability to obtain FIA Super License points, the F3 Americas series aligns with the global FIA development ladder philosophy of using common components to provide a cost-efficient, reliable, and powerful racing structure as drivers ascend through the levels on their way to North American, or Global, racing success.

Honda Pilot Rebelle Rally
Honda R&D Americas (HRA) associates Ariel Jen and Melanie Morimoto recently completed the Rebelle Rally in this lightly modified 2019 Honda Pilot SUV. The all-women navigation rally runs 1,700 miles and 8-days across the deserts of California and Nevada, with driver and navigator only allowed a compass and a map as their guide. The 2019 Honda Pilot featured a stock drivetrain, using the factory engine, transmission, and i-VTM4™ all-wheel drive system for the duration of the journey. The only modifications made were for additional durability and safety performance, including custom skid plates, extra ground clearance, off-road tires, and an interior modified for additional storage of spare tires and other equipment.

Honda Ridgeline Overland Project
The Honda Ridgeline Overland Project incorporates multiple upgrades and modifications to turn the 2019 Honda Ridgeline Black Edition into the ultimate overland adventure vehicle. Working with Honda outfitter Jsport Performance Accessories, the Ridgeline Overlander’s extensive modifications are meant to bolster Ridgeline’s off-road and overlanding capability, without compromising its on-road comfort, and will soon be available for purchase. The additional skid plates, off-road wheels and tires, and leveling kit are all designed to help Ridgeline make the most of its i-VTM4™ four-wheel drive system when driving off-road. JSport sidesteps make it easier to access the versatile new Plateau roof rack system, while the Mesa bed rack maximizes cargo flexibility. Mounted in the Plateau roof rack is a lightweight, quiet and powerful Honda EU2200i generator for powering any electrical accessories your overland excursions require.

2019 Honda Insight
The all-new 2019 Honda Insight hybrid offers a superior driving experience, comfortable interior, and high-end looks, all while receiving up to a 55 mpg city rating1. Like all Honda products, Insight is available with a long list of dealer-installed accessories, many of which are showcased on the Insight on display this year at SEMA. Included on the Insight are various additional interior lighting, such as door sill, door panel and foot illumination for a more custom look. The display Insight also includes 17-inch SBK wheels, fog lights, front and rear chrome bumper trim, and black front bumper trim. All accessories are available from Honda dealers nationwide.

First Honda Pedal Car
Inspired by the Honda Project 2&4 concept race car shown at the 2015 Los Angeles Auto Show, the First Honda pedal car concept explores ideas to inspire kids to be enthusiasts for the Honda brand. The pedal car is compact, about 47 inches long, 24 inches high and 22 inches wide, and incorporates carbon fiber construction in its floor and rear “diffuser.” Though pedal powered, the First Honda also contains a rechargeable lithium ion battery to power lights, and even recharge a cell phone in the snack compartment under the “hood.” Built by Honda Accessory America, the First Honda also uses 18-inch alloy wheels from the 2017 Honda Civic Hatchback.

Honda Powersports
The Honda Powersports lineup on display at SEMA will showcase a number of different products, featuring the following:

  • 2019 CRF450R Works Edition – For the 2019 model year, you don’t have to be Ken Roczen to enjoy a CRF450R with factory enhancements, as the new CRF450RWE features a number of upgrades based on the bikes in the Team Honda HRC race shop. Rocketing to the top step of the podium through the use of a specially designed cylinder head with hand-polished ports, Yoshimura titanium slip-on muffler, and special ECU settings, this new model offers increased low- and mid-range torque. It also features the same graphics as Roczen’s No. 94 race bike, including a Throttle Jockey factory seat cover. Upgraded black D.I.D LT-X rims are included, along with black triple clamps and a gold RK chain. Titanium nitride-coated fork legs and an updated, titanium nitride-coated shock shaft increase traction and bump absorption.
  • 2019 CRF450L – The all-new road-legal CRF450L expands customers’ off-road possibilities by enabling access to the best riding trails, even when that means connecting them via asphalt roads. Street legality is achieved via features like LED lighting, mirrors, and a dedicated exhaust system. Equally at home in the woods or desert, the CRF450L has a wide-ratio six-speed transmission for maximum adaptability, while a lightweight, 2.0-gallon titanium fuel tank offers great range. Compared to the CRF450R motocrosser, crank mass is up for tractability in technical conditions, where a large-capacity radiator keeps things cool.
  • 2019 Super Cub C125 ABS – Since the 1958 introduction of the first Super Cub C100 (one year before the launch of the American Honda Motor Co., Inc.), the iconic model and its descendants have enticed armies of new riders to motorcycling with its approachable, stylish design and utilitarian performance that helped alter people’s perceptions of riding. In fact the original Super Cub was the most produced motor vehicle in history, selling over 100 million units worldwide. After 45 years, the Super Cub returns to the United States, with American Honda offering the 2019 Super Cub C125 ABS in celebration of its 60th anniversary. Featuring classic Super Cub styling with an S-letter silhouette and step-through design, the little motorcycle has a fuel-efficient and quiet 125cc air-cooled single-cylinder engine, fuel injection, a comfortable seat, and ABS brakes.
  • 2019 Monkey – A master of fun, the 2019 Monkey builds on the passion of the 1958 original, while opening the door to the next generation of enthusiasts. The classic Monkey style provides the cues: simple, curved surfaces, and a trapezoid silhouette highlighting the compact length. The glossy fuel tank, finished in the same color as the frame, swingarm, and shocks, crowns the machine, and proudly wears a historical 3-D “Old Wing”-design Honda logo. Chrome steel high-mount fenders—plus the evocatively stamped exhaust shield, circular mirrors, and high-rise handlebar—all pay homage to the original. The Monkey is powered by a modern, reliable 125cc single-cylinder four-stroke engine, and is available with ABS brakes.
