The SEC claimed workplace misconduct complaints were neither collected nor analyzed as expected by public disclosure regulations, CNBC reported. “Moreover, taking action to impede former employees from communicating directly with the Commission staff about a possible security law violation is not only bad corporate governance, it is illegal,” SEC director Jason Burt said.

The settlement is not an admission of wrongdoing but concludes a probe that focused on Activision Blizzard’s standards from 2018 to 2021.

The SEC included the following paragraph in its press release:

“The SEC’s order finds that Activision Blizzard failed to implement necessary controls to collect and review employee complaints about workplace misconduct, which left it without the means to determine whether larger issues existed that needed to be disclosed to investors,” said Jason Burt, Director of the SEC’s Denver Regional Office. “Moreover, taking action to impede former employees from communicating directly with the Commission staff about a possible securities law violation is not only bad corporate governance, it is illegal.”

The Wall Street Journal reported that female employees at Activision complained for years about alleged sexual assaults and mistreatment. The SEC’s probe examined what Activision’s management knew about the alleged incidents and how it addressed them internally, the Journal reported.

Activision’s system wasn’t designed to collect and analyze complaints about workplace misconduct across its separate business units, the SEC said in a settlement order. As a result, Activision’s management and directors often didn’t have information about employee complaints or incidents involving harassment, the SEC order said.

According to the Wall Street Journal, the settlement also said that Activision’s separation agreements with employees from 2016 to 2021 included an improper clause requiring ex-workers to tell the company if agencies such as the SEC contacted them about reports of misconduct. The SEC said that requirement violated the SEC’s whistleblower-protection rules, which seek to ensure that company insiders aren’t prevented from informing regulators about wrongdoing.

It is interesting to note that The Wall Street Journal reported that the $35 million fine is a significant penalty for an enforcement case focused on a company’s disclosure procedures. The SEC under Chair Gary Gentler and Enforcement Director Gurbir S. Grewal has ratcheted up penalties, saying fines need to be higher to effectively deter wrongdoing.

My hope is that the SEC’s order will result in Activision Blizzard to actually listening to employees who have been harassed or abused in the workplace and enact a significant penalty upon the person(s) who engaged in harassment or abuse. If not, I suppose the SEC can take additional action on the company.

After experiencing record growth in 2022, Nagualep is now aiming for higher in 2023, with the goal of reducing 1 billion pounds of food waste globally. “With the average American household wasting around 1,000 pounds of food waste every year, Nagualep provides an accessible way for people to start making a difference, and become a part of the solution today, by reducing their home’s waste footprint by up to 90%.” Said Jordan Sherman, marketing director at Nagualep.

A New Model of Waste Processing

The Nagualep NA-2 works by heating food waste up to 126 degrees Celsius for dehydration and sterilization (kills 99.9% of bacteria). At the same time, food waste is ground into a dry material that is 85% less volume, and 95% less weight. NA-2 features an intelligent sensing system that stops operation automatically when processing is complete, with an operating cycle taking as little as 1.5 hours, which using just 01kWh to 0.5kWh per cycle, or about the same as using a coffee maker. It is quiet too, operating under 45 decibels, which is about the same as a typical refrigerator.

“Turn Waste Into Treasure”

Nagualep says the NA-2 can turn kitchen waste into a natural, chemical-free fertilizer that can be used in a home garden. Operation is simple, with only a single button on the top to begin processing. While many users report that they use NA-2 after every meal, some users were surprised at how it made preparing meals much more convenient, as all of the egg shells, vegetable stems, seafood shells, and chicken bones find their way into NA-2, rather than the trash can.

Creating a Better Home Life, While Saving the Environment

“While living in Canada, I discovered there were not many convenient ways to responsibly manage kitchen waste,” said Na Pan, the founder of Nagualep.

“I did not want to install a garbage disposal under my sink since they are loud, require a lot of electricity and water to use, as well as not being the best for the environment. I ended up using a lot of garbage bags, and could not stand the smells or taking out the trash every day. I tried something called an electric compost machine, but it was loud, and took several hours to complete operation, so I decided to found Nagualep and began developing NA-2.”

Changing Garbage Disposal Habits in America

After considerable success in Asian markets, Nagualep is planning to make some big moves in the US in 2023. “We have been thrilled with the adoption of Nagualep in Asia, and could not be more excited to introduce this technology to American homes,” Jordan said. “When we think about making a difference, there is often a imagined element of sacrifice, but with Nagualep, you really do get to have your cake and eat it too. We are seeing people reduce their waste footprint by as much as 90% in Asia with NA-2, and our fans rave about how much more convenient kitchen life has become. At the same time users are reporting lower utility bills, and vibrant, colorful home gardens. A common theme across reviews is that once people get a taste of Nagualep, they wonder how they ever lived without it.”

NA-2 retails for $699 MSRP and can be found on Amazon and at www.nagualep.com.

Dog-E is a smart, app-connected robot dog with life-like movements, audio sensors to hear sounds, touch sensors on its head, nose and sides of its body, and a POV (persistence of vision) tail that displays icons and messages to communicate. As soon as you turn on your Dog-E, your all-white pup comes to life through the minting process, which reveals its unique colors and characteristics. The minting process can begin by petting its head, touching its nose, or playing with it, among a long list of other interactions.

“We are excited to announced the launch of MINTiD Dog-E, as we combine cool, cutting-edge tech with social relevance, revolutionizing the toy category for robots once again,” said Sydney Wiseman, VP of Brand Development & Creative Strategy at WowWee. “With Dog-E, we are reimagining robot dogs, thinking about the joy that a kid – or kidult! will feel when one is ‘MINTiD’ just for them!”

We all love when something is made uniquely for us – something we can truly call our own. The Dog-E companion app allows multiple members of a family to mint and save their own individual profiles in a single Dog-E. Each member of the family can have a Dog-E profile with its own unique look and personality using the app. With so many personalities available, some Dog-Es will love resting time, while others might always be hungry; some will be cute and shy, while others might be feisty and playful!

By using the app, you can train your Dog-E to learn your name, program movements based on how you want to play and interact with it, and teach it your favorite tricks like giving kisses, singing, and responding to claps. Your Dog-E can “talk with its tail” by displaying emote, icons, and messages. Dog-E will let you know when it’s hungry, wants love, and when it wants to play – each in unique ways, depending on the personality you have ‘MINTiD.’

Dog-E is available now for pre-order at https://dog-e.com Pre-order customers will receive a bonus accessory pack of 4 collars in a variety of colors exclusively for your Dog-E.

Available at retailers and online in the US and Canada fall 2023 MSRP $79.99 $99.99CAD.

This purifier not only reduces odors, but it helps inhibit viruses, bacteria, mold, and allergens, both airborne and on surfaces. The air purifier will be on display at the Panasonic booth #16317 LVCC Main Hall.

Panasonic’s unique, patented nanoe X technology has been used in a wide range of products from hair dryers to air conditioners to indoor air quality solutions; it is now being deployed in a new, portable in-vehicle product that ensures cars can provide a healthier cabin with cleaner air.

With American drivers spending an average of more than 17,600 minutes behind the wheel each year, innovations like the nanoe X in-vehicle air cleaner can enhance the comfort and quality of the environment where people spend so much of their time.

“The product is a simple solution that can enhance the driver and passenger experience by making their surroundings cleaner and cabin air healthier to breathe,” said Andrew Poliak, CEO of Panasonic Automotive Systems. “Over the past few years, vehicles have evolved to become the second home – and with more travelers on the road, we are pleased to offer consumers a way to enhance the air quality and wellbeing of their families, passengers, and themselves in their vehicles.”

The patented nanoe X technology uses hydroxyl radicals proven to inhibit harmful substances and reduce odor intensity. “Nanoe’ are nano-sized electrostatic atomized water particles produced by applying a high voltage to water collected from the air and contains hydroxyl radicals (highly reactive components) that easily act on various substances. Panasonic’s nanoe X takes this process of producing hydroxyl radicals and increases it exponentially compared to conventional products, delivering the next evolution of in-cabin air quality.

The nanoe X air purifying product is certified by California Air Resource Board (CARB) as well as UL-ETL, the Underwriters Laboratories and the Electrical Testing Laboratory, two testing and certification authorities for U.S. safety standards for lighting, electronics, materials, and equipment.

In addition to its advanced scientific approach and safety certification, the nanoe X air purifier offers simple operation and activation, cleaning car cabins in approximately two hours at a whisper-level sound of approximately 36 decibels. The after-market product is USB powered and adaptable to most vehicle brands or models. With no need to adjust the vehicle’s factor-installed air filtration system, the Panasonic nanoe X purifier can be manually placed into the cupholders of most vehicles.

This product launch is part of Panasonic’s broader GREEN IMPACT initiative that is aimed at achieving a better quality of life for society and a sustainable global environment. As part of its commitment to virtually net-zero by 2030 and working toward 300 million tons in avoided emissions by 2050.

“I was surprised to learn that the most important people in our lives, our children, sit in safety seats primarily made out of plastic and Styrofoam,” said Shy Mindel, CEO of babyark. “While safety features for adults in vehicles have evolved dramatically over the past 10 years, child passenger safety technology has remained stagnant. babyark is approaching safety through the hardware, the actual seat, and the software, including the safety sensors that communicate with the app. The result is a car seat that takes a holistic approach to safety.”

Made of anticrash materials, the babyark energy absorption technology is built around a high strength steel SafeCoil shock-absorbing system that gently slows the seat’s forward momentum during a crash. Carbon fiber and D3O, the world’s most technologically-advanced impact absorbing polymer tested in extreme military applications, complement the babyark suite of safety solutions.

In addition to top materials, the babyark smart seat using IoT technology to supply caregivers with real time indications regarding child passenger safety at all times. With 14 sensors embedded in the base of the seat, it alerts the driver via the personal babyark app if the seat is installed correctly, if the child is buckled or if the child is forgotten in the vehicle. The app then provides instructions on how to ensure that everything is correct, giving caregivers the peace of mind that their child is safely in their seat on each and every drive. The app is available on Android and iOS.

“Car seats are a major source of anxiety for parents. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), 59% of car seats are installed incorrectly,” said Yifat Ryce, Chief Marketing Officer of babyark and licensed CPST. “Safety starts with installation, and the babyark app uses technology to simplify everything possible for caregivers, enabling them to do it right the first time and every time.”

babyark can be used for infants and children from four to 65 pounds, and allows for extended rear facing up to 55 pounds. The seat is available for pre-order now for a limited-time price of $990 and will officially be released in the Summer of 2023 for $1,190.

babyark is on display at Consumer Electronics Show in Booth #54959 at Tech West in the Venetian Expo.

Armored Fresh will launch another developed plant-based cheese in the ‘Food Tech’ section at CES 2023, which takes place from January 5th through 8th. The company is expected to receive great attention as one of the participants of the ‘Food Tech’ section, as it was selected as an up-and-coming business last year at the same convention. Many are in anticipation of Armored Fresh’s new plant-based cheese that will be unveiled at CES this year.

The company previously launched plant-based cheese cubes at CES 2022, which are receiving such a sensational response that the product is currently being sold in more than 200 stores in New York. The cheese cubes have been successful at completely overturning the same delicious taste as dairy cheese. The company, however, is still focused on improving the quality of their products, as well as offering a diverse selection of cheeses.

The plant-based American slices, which will be introduced at this year’s CES, features a soft and chewy texture, and high-quality flavor. Armored Fresh paid attention to the cheese’s melting properties to further improve the unnatural texture, which is one of the biggest challenges of the existing vegan cheese market. Melting properties, which means the degree to which cheese melts when heat is applied, has long been considered technically difficult to implement in the vegan industry. Nevertheless, since Armored Fresh instigated their own research and development for improved product quality, their plant-based cheese has the perfect melting capabilities.

At CES 2023, Armored Fresh will set top a booth on the TECH EAST side of the Las Vegas Convention Center (LVCC) exhibition hall. The company will also give out samples of grilled cheese to show off the competitiveness of their new product. After the event, Armored Fresh’s plant-based product lineup will be expanded to include Cheddar, Pepper Jack, and Monterey Jack.

Rudy Yoo, Founder and CEO of Armored Fresh said, “It is a great pleasure to participate in CES once again this year. This year we will have the opportunity to show the world our very own Armored Fresh sliced cheese. Knowing that there’s a big demand for such alternative dairy products, we’re pleased to offer this superior zero dairy cheese. With big plans to expand into nationwide markets and European market opportunities, Armored Fresh is pleased to announce our next step into this journey of innovation. Be on the lookout for Armored Fresh cheese in your local store and shop.”

The company will primarily be showcasing their newest product and brand, Aesty. The first hair straightener to ever receive a CES Innovation Award (2023), Aesty is a cordless hair straightener with several features that differentiate it from competitors.

At CES 2023, Aesty Cordless Hair Straightener will be introduced with an emphasis on minimizing hair damage based on its precise smart-heating technology. Aesty’s Dual Heater technology generates high-speed heat and maintains precise temperatures by using more than 150 sophisticated thermal control algorithms per second, resulting in hair styling without excessive heat. To attract visitors to their booth, Mangoslab has installed a thermal camera in order to show Aesty’s effectiveness and even heat distribution, and will be doing live product demonstrations throughout CES 2023.

Aesty’s Hidden Hinge design prevents hair from getting caught and snagging during styling due to an internally-located hinge. The Hybrid Mode feature enables the device to be plugged in during use, bypassing the battery as the power source and using direct power instead, effectively saving the battery for cordless use at a later time. Additionally, it is equipped with a 4-cell battery that can be used up to 410F degrees without the need for a cord, and generates a full charge in just 60 minutes.

“I think CES 2023 will be a fantastic opportunity to showcase Mangoslab’s cordless hair straightener, who won an Innovation Award amid record competition,” said Yongsoo Jong, CEO of Mangoslab. “Excessive heat damages hair, and damaged hair becomes more difficult to style.” Jeong continued, “We want to become a company that can ultimately contribute to users enjoying more self-expression while providing solutions to minimize hair damage through Aesty.”

Currently, Aesty’s Cordless Hair Straightener has been released in the US, and can be found online at their official website (www.aesty.) and Amazon. Visit Mangoslab at booth #55653.
