Quotes
Colton Herta (Andretti Autosport Honda) started 1st, finished 1st, led a race-record 97 laps for his first Indy car victory of 2021 “What a great job by everybody, my team, Gainbridge, Honda.  Sorry, I can hardly talk, I’m so winded.  I’m so happy that we did this, so happy that we rebounded from Barber [where an opening-lap crash sent him behind the wall for several laps for repairs].  We’ve now got the momentum we need [to contend for the championship].  I was nervous [following a late-race restart] because Josef [Newgarden] is so good around here and was on [Firestone alternate] ‘Red’ tires, but it turned out to be similar [to Herta’s primary-compound ‘Black’ tires], so I was able to hold him off.  Oh man, I can’t even speak right now.  So happy to be powered by Honda, and my team, they did a hell of a job.”

Jack Harvey (Meyer Shank Racing Honda) started 2nd, finished 4th: “I think we had a solid day.  Any time you start on the front row, you want to finish on the podium.  So [finishing fourth] is slightly disappointing.  But it was a solid result, and that’s what we needed to start the year off properly.  We’re just so close to [a qualifying] pole position and podium finish now, we just need to keep working hard and the results will come.  We were racing with some of the best drivers on the grid, and that’s where we want to be. I just want to win.”

Kelvin Fu (Director, Program Management, Honda Performance Development) on today’s Honda victory at the Firestone Grand Prix of St. Petersburg: “Two wins, from two different Honda drivers and teams, is just a fantastic way to start Honda’s season in the NTT INDYCAR SERIES. It’s great to see a pair of young drivers – Alex [Palou] and Colton [Herta] – come to the fore and end up on the top step of the podiums at Barber and St. Petersburg. And encouraging to see Jack Harvey and Meyer Shank Racing have another strong run as their effort continues to improve.  Now we’re excited to head to Texas for our first ovals races of the year, in what should be a preview for an exciting Month of May and Indianapolis 500.”

Fast Facts

  • With its second win and first pole of 2021, Honda builds it’s early-season lead in the INDYCAR Manufacturers’ Championship with an unofficial total of 178 points to 148 for rival Chevrolet. Honda is seeking the company’s fourth consecutive NTT INDYCAR SERIES Manufacturers’ Championship in 2021.

The Kone Pro Series Combines ROCCAT’s Iconic Competitive PC Gaming Mouse Design with the Brand’s Latest Technologies, Including Titan Optical Switch, Titan Wheel Pro, and More

WHITE PLAINS, N.Y., April 26, 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — ROCCAT, Turtle Beach Corporation’s (Nasdaq: HEAR) award-winning Hamburg, Germany-based PC peripheral brand, today unveiled the newest additions to its legendary Kone line of PC gaming mice, the Kone Pro and Kone Pro Air. The all-new Kone Pro series mice combine ROCCAT’s ridiculously fast Titan Optical Switch technology with the signature feel of the brand’s legendary Kone PC gaming mouse design. ROCCAT debuted the first-ever Kone mouse in 2007, and the Kone was also ROCCAT’s first commercially launched product in 2008 and has gone on to become a staple of esports. 13 years later, the Kone’s design has undergone well-over a decade’s worth of research into hand sizes and grip-types to create the most advanced, ergonomic, and competitive mouse yet. The all-new Kone Pro series improves on the renowned ergonomic shape of the Kone and is available in Arctic White and Ash Black. ROCCAT’s Kone Pro series mice will be available May 16, 2021 for a MSRP of $79.99 for the wired Kone Pro, and a MSRP of $129.99 for the wireless Kone Pro Air.

“The new Kone Pro series adds our latest groundbreaking features to this fan-favorite mouse design to deliver true competitive comfort. It is a marvel inside and out,” said René Korte, ROCCAT Founder and General Manager for PC peripherals at Turtle Beach. “ROCCAT’s origin story begins with the first Kone, so when we set out to redesign our most iconic mouse, we were excited to bring our latest advancements together in a new offering that surpasses what’s come before. This was no easy task. However, I can say with confidence that the new Kone Pro series is our best yet.”

The launch of ROCCAT’s Kone Pro mice marks a new chapter in the Kone’s story, as the newly redefined shape strikes the perfect balance between what PC gamers loved in the Kone AIMO and the performance of the Kone Pure. Beyond the evolution in the Kone‘s shape, the Kone Pro mice boast ROCCAT’s Titan Optical Switch technology for a high-quality click feel, a response rate up to 100 times faster than mechanical switches, and long-lasting durability. The Kone Pro mice also feature ROCCAT’s acclaimed Titan Wheel Pro – a new aluminum wheel with a satisfying scroll and sensory click, providing gamers with unmatched speed and a premium feel. Pure PTFE, heat-treated skates assure smooth motion and minimal friction. Both the Kone Pro and Kone Pro Air make use of ROCCAT’s bionic shell design for an ultra-lightweight precision gaming mouse thanks to its honeycomb structure.

Weighing in at 66 grams and 75 grams respectively, the Kone Pro and Kone Pro Air are among the lightest gaming mice on the market. The Kone Pro series use ROCCAT®s Owl-Eye 19K dpi optical sensor, making them highly accurate. The high-performance sensor allows for precision translation from movement to gameplay. The Kone Pro comes with the PhantomFlex® cable for a feeling of unrestricted motion. Providing an even greater level of freedom, the Kone Pro Air is completely wireless, with dual connectivity possible via Bluetooth and wireless transmitter. The Kone Pro Air‘s Rapid Charge feature provides five hours of gameplay with just a 10-minute charge, while Stellar Wireless delivers over 100 hours of continuous gameplay with a full charge.

Both models also offer ROCCAT’s alluring AIMO RGB lighting abilities to synchronize with compatible AIMO-enabled products for multi-device illumination patterns. Able to produce 16.8 million colors, the Kone Pro and Kone Pro Air can connect with other ROCCAT desktop devices for optimal RGB lighting coordination.

The Noid™ is Back! Domino’s® Villain Returns to TV Ads and New Crash Bandicoot: On the Run!™ Mobile Game

0
The Noid has returned in Domino’s new television ads which capture the pesky antihero trying to thwart the advanced technology of Nuro’s R2 robot - a completely autonomous, occupantless on-road vehicle - out on a pizza delivery.

ANN ARBOR, Mich., April 26, 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Domino’s Pizza Inc. (NYSE: DPZ), the largest pizza company in the world based on global retail sales, has always had one nemesis: the Noid – an antihero that has been trying to prevent great pizza delivery since 1986. Maybe it was the chaos of 2020 that gave the Noid the confidence to return, or possibly the fact that Domino’s has continued to innovate around great pizza delivery with amazing technology. Whatever the reason, the Noid simply can’t stand it anymore, and the pesky antihero has returned in Domino’s new television ads, which begin airing today, trying to thwart the advanced technology of Nuro’s R2 robot, a completely autonomous, occupantless on-road vehicle, out on a pizza delivery. (See more at selfdrivingdelivery.dominos.com).

The Noid has returned in Domino’s new television ads which capture the pesky antihero trying to thwart the advanced technology of Nuro’s R2 robot – a completely autonomous, occupantless on-road vehicle – out on a pizza delivery.

“The Noid is Domino’s oldest and most famous villain, and the pizza delivery testing we’re doing with Nuro’s autonomous vehicle is exactly the kind of technology innovation that could provoke the Noid to return,” said Kate Trumbull, Domino’s vice president of advertising. “However, after 35 years of practice in avoiding the Noid, we’re pretty confident we know how to defeat it.”

While television screens are a great place for a classic nemesis to return, mobile devices are the newest place for the Noid to cause problems. Starting May 7, the Noid will join the newest installment of the Crash Bandicoot gaming series, Crash Bandicoot: On the Run!, a new mobile adventure that honors the rich 25-year history of the beloved franchise. For a limited time, the Noid will be featured as one of the game’s mini bosses, pitting players against the Noid as Crash progresses through the story. Avoiding the Noid has never been so fun! Players will also have access to exclusive Domino’s pizza-themed player skins, showing players love for all things pizza.

“We’re excited to launch our first in-game collaboration for Crash Bandicoot: On the Run! with Domino’s,” said Richard Hocking, head of marketing at King, the game’s developer. “With the Noid making its big return this year and the Crash Bandicoot franchise celebrating its 25th anniversary, it was the perfect opportunity to have players take on the Domino’s antihero alongside other nostalgic Crash bosses in this brand-new mobile adventure.”

Feeling sentimental about the Noid? Domino’s now has a limited number of “Hanging in There” and “Avoid the Noid” T-shirts, as well as tumblers available for purchase on Amazon. All profits from the Noid merchandise will go to Domino’s Partners Foundation, an independent internal nonprofit organization that provides financial assistance to Domino’s franchise and corporate team members in need. The Noid has even schemed its way into GIPHY, the online platform that houses GIFs and stickers for use on all major social media platforms. Fans can find and share the devious creature by searching “The Noid” in GIF and sticker search engines on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, and TikTok, or by visiting giphy.com/dominos.

MIAMI, April 23, 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — eMed™, a digital health company democratizing healthcare through digital point-of-care solutions, today announced its at-home COVID-19 rapid testing platform is now available in Spanish with Spanish-speaking Certified Guides who virtually guide users through the administration of the BinaxNOW™ rapid antigen test.

“There are at least 40 million Spanish speakers in the United States. While the pandemic has magnified the gaps in our healthcare system for vulnerable populations, eMed is eliminating language barriers to our innovative care platform,” said Dr. Patrice Harris, eMed Co-Founder and CEO. “Spanish language test instructions, coupled with Spanish-speaking Certified Guides will help stop the spread of COVID-19 and save lives in even more communities with our new capability.”

eMed connects individuals, organizations and states with fast, reliable and easy COVID-19 rapid tests. At $25 each, rapid tests administered by eMed are the most affordable option currently available on the market with authenticated results reported automatically to public health authorities. These at-home tests require no additional equipment and deliver authenticated results within 15-minutes.

Available for purchase online at eMed.com and also free through certain government partnerships, eMed tests ensure that anyone — regardless of working hours, mobility issues, caregiving responsibilities or other challenges — is able to get tested from the convenience of home avoiding lines and additional exposure. Test users will be guided through the testing process remotely by a Spanish-speaking eMed Certified Guide, who will verify the individual’s identity and authenticate the test and result.

Reaching Spanish speaking populations in their native language is only the latest in a series of advances from eMed that make access to rapid at-home testing easier than ever before. eMed recently announced a mobile capability for its testing platform, allowing anyone to order tests, get tested, and view their validated results all from a single device, such as a smartphone or tablet.

As part of its ongoing commitment to deliver affordable, on-demand access to health care services, eMed is also innovating new technology to home-enable third-party verified results for more diagnostic tests, including influenza, drug testing and sexually transmitted infections, among other conditions.

To date, eMed has distributed millions of tests through individual sales and partnerships with companies, such as Cardinal Health, TruePill, x.labs, and states, including Colorado and Ohio.
