LUBBOCK, Texas, Oct. 23, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Today, Planned Parenthood of Greater Texas

Birth control, breast and cervical cancer screenings, STI testing and other healthcare services available

LUBBOCK, Texas, Oct. 23, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Today, Planned Parenthood of Greater Texas announced the opening of its new Lubbock health center.

«Planned Parenthood is delighted to return to Lubbock with our brand-new health center and provide trusted, affordable healthcare services,» said Ken Lambrecht, President and CEO of Planned Parenthood of Greater Texas. «Our goal in Lubbock is to contribute to the healthcare network by providing essential healthcare services. We’re proud to be part of Lubbock’s friendly, diverse community.»

«Everyone deserves a life that is healthy, happy, and free from shame and stigma,» said Angela Martinez, Manager of the Lubbock health center. «All are welcome in our health center and we look forward to being a healthcare resource for the Lubbock community.»

«I represent the one-in-five women who have relied upon Planned Parenthood for my health care needs,» said Kimberleigh Gonzalez Williams, a Lubbock mom and healthcare professional. «Sex education and healthcare options should be accessible and affordable to all bodies, and Planned Parenthood helps bring this reality to our community.»

The Planned Parenthood Lubbock health center is open for in-person and telemedicine healthcare appointments same-day and next-day for patients seeking the following healthcare services:

  • breast and cervical cancer screenings
  • full range of birth control methods (including IUDs and implants)
  • testing and treatment for sexually transmitted infections (STIs)
  • HIV tests
  • PrEP and PEP medication to prevent HIV transmission
  • treatment for urinary tract and vaginal infections
  • annual well checks
  • HPV vaccines, flu vaccines, and other essential healthcare services

Medication and surgical abortion services will be provided at a later point during the year ahead.

All are welcome at Planned Parenthood regardless of insurance or documentation status, income level, where they live or who they love. Planned Parenthood is proud to be a trusted resource for LGBTQ patients.

Affordable healthcare services: Uninsured patients may be eligible for patient assistance funding for birth control; breast and cervical cancer screenings; STI testing and treatment; and HPV vaccines to prevent certain types of cancer.

Texas has the highest percentage of uninsured residents of any state according to the Texas Medical Association and healthcare disparities that disproportionally impact people with low incomes and people of color. Lubbock and surrounding communities face rates of STIs and teen pregnancy that exceed both state and national averages, along with other health outcome challenges. Lubbock County’s uninsured adult rate was 11 percent above the national average according to the 2019 Community Health Needs Assessment.

For the past three years, a priority for Planned Parenthood of Greater Texas has been to expand healthcare services in West Texas to increase access to affordable healthcare. In late 2019, Planned Parenthood expanded access to telemedicine across West Texas via the Planned Parenthood Direct app.

About Planned Parenthood of Greater Texas
For more than 85 years, Planned Parenthood of Greater Texas has been a trusted provider of healthcare and sex education. We provide healthcare and education services to nearly 85,000 Texans each year in Austin, Dallas, Denton, El Paso, Fort Worth, Paris, Plano, Tyler, Waco, and surrounding communities.

World Electric Vehicles (EV) Batteries and Materials Report 2020: In the short term, Demand for EVs will Likely Grow More Rapidly than Demand for Conventional Vehicles

DUBLIN, Oct. 23, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — The «EV Batteries and Materials: Technology,…

DUBLIN, Oct. 23, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — The «EV Batteries and Materials: Technology, Trends, and Market Forecasts» report from The Information Network has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.

Research and Markets Logo

Although global economic uncertainties have mounted amid the COVID-19 outbreak, we expect structural EV demand growth to remain intact. In the short term, demand for EVs will likely grow more rapidly than demand for conventional vehicles. Furthermore, major automakers, including Volkswagen, are unlikely to change their EV strategies.

In 2020-2021, we believe global EV demand will primarily come from Europe, where new EV model launches should expand despite uncertainties over the easing of environmental regulations. In the US, growth is likely to be driven by Tesla.

China should also exhibit robust demand, supported by the extension of subsidies. In particular, as Tesla gains a bigger foothold in the country, global and local automakers will likely take more aggressive action. Through this process, we believe China will transition from a subsidy-driven to a private demand-driven EV market.

In the short term, we think the gap in EV competitiveness among automakers will widen amid the economic slowdown. EV competitiveness comes mainly from the adoption of a dedicated platform, economies of scale, and improved management in batteries. As such, we believe capital power and investments will likely grow in importance.

In 2022-23, we expect battery prices to decline. For its Chinese models, Tesla plans to adopt cell-to-pack battery technology with lithium iron phosphate (LFP) cathodes. LFP batteries have lower energy density than nickel manganese cobalt (NCM) batteries, but are also 20% cheaper.

Meanwhile, LG Chem plans to adopt nickel, cobalt, manganese, and aluminum (NCMA) cathodes (more than 80% nickel content) from 2022-23 and apply long cell technology to increase battery energy density by at least 20%. Samsung SDI is working on improving energy density more than 20% by applying lithium nickel cobalt aluminum oxide (NCA) cathodes to its prismatic batteries. Thanks to these efforts, battery cell costs are anticipated to fall from US$130/kWh currently to around US$100/kWh in 2022-23.

In addition to lower battery costs, overall EV production costs are also likely to fall sharply, aided by fixed cost savings from scale effects. Volkswagen is believed to have invested heavily in developing its EV platform, the modular electric drive matrix (MEB), but the development cost per unit is projected to decline significantly as production volume ramps up.

Assuming platform development costs at W2tr, the cost per unit should fall sharply as Volkswagen’s EV sales volume grows (from an estimated 400,000-500,000 units globally in 2020 to 1.5mn units in 2023 and 3mn units in 2025). Assembly line productivity is also likely to improve 30% through the EV platform, leading to significant fixed cost savings per unit. Thus, by 2023, we believe EVs could approach price parity with gas-powered vehicles, even without fuel cost savings effects.

With more automakers aiming to market cheaper, longer-range plug-in cars, demand for lithium-ion automotive batteries is expected rise. This report analyzes the markets for electric vehicles and EV batteries by type and geographic region. Other sectors analyzed are anode and cathode materials, and separators. Supply/demand of raw materials including lithium, cobalt, and nickel are detailed and forecast.

LAS VEGAS, Oct. 23, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — After 16 years of notable success with Mesa Grill at Caesars Palace, award-winning chef Bobby Flay plans to introduce a new restaurant concept, Amalfi by Bobby Flay, following final service on Saturday, Nov. 14. Inspired by Flay’s extensive travels to Italy and the Amalfi Coast, this will be his first Italian restaurant concept. With an anticipated late spring 2021 opening, Amalfi will transport guests to the Mediterranean with its enchanting blend of coastal ease and fresh, bright flavors.

Chef Bobby Flay to introduce his first Italian restaurant concept, Amalfi, at Caesars Palace Las Vegas, late spring 2021

***For Hi-Res Renderings, Mesa Grill Images and More Click Here***

«We have all learned during this unfortunate pandemic, and one of the things I’ve held closely to, is to focus on the things you’re most passionate about—for me, right now, that passion is Italian cuisine, especially from the Amalfi coast,» said Flay. «Food in Amalfi is known for two things, the fish that comes out of the water and pasta. I want to bring the best of the region to Caesars Palace, and every dish that is served at the all-new Amalfi will evoke the flavors and feel of Italy. Mesa Grill has meant so much to me over these last 16 years, but it’s important to evolve and stay ahead of the curve, especially in Las Vegas. The team and I are excited for this next chapter, and we know our loyal guests will love the new experience we have planned.»

«We are proud of our longstanding relationship with Bobby Flay and the success of Mesa Grill at our resort, creating 16 years of wonderful memories for our guests,» said Caesars Entertainment Regional President Gary Selesner. «Bobby has an unparalleled enthusiasm for travel and expressing his experiences on the plate. We are thrilled to partner on this next chapter with Amalfi by Bobby Flay, bringing a vibrant Mediterranean seafood dining destination to the heart of the Strip at Caesars Palace.»

The legendary beauty of southern Italy’s Amalfi Coast has inspired artists, writers and musicians for centuries. Rugged cliffs, crashing blue waves filled with the freshest sea life, vibrant greenery, fresh produce in abundance and an ease of life are pillars of the region. These elements will all be seen, smelled, felt and, most importantly, tasted at Flay’s new Amalfi restaurant.

Flay’s interest in Italian cuisine runs deep, with especial admiration for its simplistic elegance and festive eating, which will be showcased through Amalfi’s menu, ranging from light antipasti, to a large menu of rich pastas, to whole fresh fish, with a few traditional desserts with a twist. Antipasti selections will include crispy soft-shell crab salad with blood oranges and green olives; soft scrambled eggs with porcini mushrooms and triple crema cheese; and squash blossoms with corn, basil and ricotta. True to the Italian heart, Amalfi will feature a vast number of pastas—both house made fresh and dry—including green tomato risotto with sea scallops and Osetra caviar; lobster pasta with yellow tomatoes, basil and Calabrian chiles; spaghetti with sea urchin and tomato; and paccheri with scorpion fish, cherry tomatoes and green garlic.

A focal point of Amalfi will be a fish and seafood display, inspired by authentic Italian markets and staffed by a knowledgeable fishmonger, who will be available to answer any guests’ questions—from where the fish is from, when it arrived in Las Vegas and more. Guests may order a whole fish, prepared grilled over charcoal or roasted al forno, served with lemon, capers and salsa verde. To finish on a sweet note, dessert staples will include pistachio olive oil cake, pistachio butter, pistachio gelato, pistachio brittle and Amarena cherry sauce; and a dark chocolate tiramisu.

Designed by Olivia Jane Design & Interiors, Amalfi features a timeless design with a natural palate and touches of greenery throughout, blended with elements like organic fabrics, stone, and wood materials, lending depth and a sense of history to the space. The entrance of the restaurant will serve as a gateway, enveloping guests’ senses from the moment they arrive. Amalfi will offer four unique yet cohesive spaces—the bar and lounge, the grille/main dining room, the market room and a private dining room.

As guests enter the lounge and bar area, they will immediately be met with a sunset glow, cast over the lounge by the sprawling 30-seat bar, nearly 50 feet in length. The menu will feature signature cocktails like Campari Spritz, and a wine list with a focus on the Campania region. The 40-seat lounge area will boast a variety of seating options fit for a casual cocktail or full meal. The grille room/main dining room area will feature towering ceilings with a wine display terraced about a high-energy open kitchen. In the evening, the room will be aglow from the streetlamp inspired hanging light fixtures.

Seating in the market room area will offer the best views of the seafood display, creating an atmosphere of being tucked away in a seaside café alongside the marketplace. The most intimate experience will be available in the private dining room or fresco room. This will offer a space for groups up to 60 to reprieve from the hustle, looking to gather for whatever the occasion calls for.

Flay’s Mesa Grill concept originated in New York City in 1991 and expanded to the Southwest to Caesars Palace in 2004. Since then, Mesa Grill has welcomed nearly three million guests and donated more than $135,000 to Three Square Food Bank, resulting in more than 400,000 meals for the Las Vegas community. Don’t miss the last chance to savor signature dishes like the Tiger Shrimp + Roasted Garlic Corn Tamale, Ancho Chile-Honey Glazed Salmon and New Mexican Spice Rubbed Pork Tenderloin.

Reservations for Mesa Grill’s final days are encouraged. Mesa Grill at Caesars Palace is open Wednesday to Sunday from 5 to 11:30 p.m., with weekend brunch of Saturday and Sunday from 10:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. For more information about Mesa Grill at Caesars Palace, visit https://www.caesars.com/caesars-palace/restaurants/mesa-grill.
