NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / September 27, 2016 / Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC reminds investors that a securities class action has been filed in the United States District Court, Southern District of New York on behalf of those who purchased shares of Embraer S.A. (“Embraer” or the “Company”) (NYSE: ERJ) between April 16, 2012 and July 28, 2016 inclusive (the “Class Period”).

Embraer designs, develops, manufactures, and sells aircraft and systems in Brazil, North America, Latin America, the Asia-Pacific region, Europe, and internationally.

The Complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Embraer paid bribes to Dominican Republic officials to secure contracts for aircraft sales; (2) Embraer’s President and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), Defendant Frederico Pinheiro Fleury Curado (“Curado”) had knowledge of the bribe; (3) the predictable consequences of this misconduct would cost Embraer hundreds of millions of dollars; and (4) consequently, Defendants’ statements about Embraer’s business, operations, and prospects were false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.

On November 1, 2013, post-market, The Wall Street Journal published an article explaining that Embraer was under investigation by the U.S. and Brazilian governments regarding a bribery scheme with Dominican Republic officials to close a deal for military aircrafts. Following this news, Embraer’s ADRs dropped $0.17 per share, or 0.57%, to close at $29.55 on (the next trading day,) November 4, 2013.

On September 23, 2014, The Wall Street Journal published how the Brazilian authorities filed a criminal complaint with charges of bribery against an Embraer sales consultant and eight former Ebraer executives and directors for Embraer, which had seemingly been done with the approval of Embraer’s top management. The charges were based on evidence provided by U.S. authorities, who had been investigating Embraer possible violations of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”) since 2010. Embraer had bribed Dominican Republic officials to secure a $92 million contract. Following this news, Embraer’s ADRs dropped $0.26 per share, or 0.68%, to close at $38.25 on September 24, 2014.

On March 16, 2016, post-market, several news sources reported that sales consultant Elio Moti Sonnenfeld, who allegedly paid bribes for Embraer, told Brazilian autthorities that he believed Embraer’s top managers, including Defendant Curado, knew of the criminal ‘imbursements’ that were paid for the Dominican Republic sales.

On June 9, 2016, post-market, Embraer announced that Embraer stated that its Chief Executive Officer Frederico Curado would be stepping down after 32 years with the Company, and that Paulo César de Souza e Silva would fill the position. Following this news, Embraer’s ADRs dropped $1.18 per share, or 5.44%, to close at $20.51 on June 10, 2016.

Later, on July 29, 2016, Embraer filed a Form 6-K with the SEC and stated in part: “[N]egotiations with the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for the settlement of the allegations of non-compliance with the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) have significantly progressed, to the point that Embraer is recognizing a US$ 200 million loss contingency in the quarter ended June 30, 2016.”

The Company also released its quarterly financial report, showing a loss of $99.4 million, or $0.55 per share, after setting aside $200 million in connection with the U.S. FCPA probe. Following this news, Embraer’s ADRs dropped $2.93 per share, or 13.82%, to close at $18.27 on July 29, 2016.

No Class has yet been certified in the above action. If you wish to review a copy of the Complaint or join the action, please visit the firm’s site: http://www.bgandg.com/erj.

Glowstone features an advanced bottom cap that keeps warm drinks at an ideal temperature for up to 30 minutes after they’re first poured

LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE / September 27, 2016 / Thomas Gostelow is proud to announce his self-heating coffee and tea mug, the Glowstone heated smart mug.

To learn more about the Glowstone heated smart mug, visit: https://goo.gl/xuVZHX.

The device features technology that can sense when hot liquid has entered the mug. The unit then clicks on its heat producing coil that keeps the liquid at an ideal temperature for as long as 30 minutes.

“For tea or coffee to taste its best, it has to be hot – ideally 60°C (140°F) to 65°C (150°F). When you make a hot drink in a standard mug, it will only remain in the perfect temperature range for a couple of minutes,” says Gostelow.

When the heater is working, a red bar is visible at the bottom of the mug, but the heat is delivered in a way where it will not harm the drinker nor the surface on which the mug sits.

The device is completely wireless and dishwasher safe. While not in use it comes with a charging doc that can also be used to charge some smart phones. Each charge is good for multiple uses, and initial tests have shown the mug to be an effective daily-user for as long as a year.

Perhaps the most distinguishing feature of the Glowstone heated smart mug is that it appears to be almost identical to any other high quality fine bone china mug. The only real difference is the technology it has hidden within. It also fits in all popular coffee machines as well as cafetieres and kettles.

“The way we drink our tea and coffee has changed. The many distractions of modern life mean we often leave our hot drink to become lukewarm, or worse, cold. So all that time and effort in preparing it goes down the drain. It was clear that the household mug needed to be brought up to date,” says Gostelow.

In order to bring the Glowstone heated smart mug to a wider audience, Gostelow has opened a crowdfunding project on Kickstarter where he hopes to raise the funds necessary to take Glowstone to mass production.

About the Glowstone heated smart mug:

The Glowstone heated smart mug is a heated mug which automatically senses when warm liquid is poured into it. It then goes to work to keep the liquid at a constant temperature for as long as 30 minutes. To learn more, visit: https://goo.gl/xuVZHX.

SketchyNotebook is an All-in-One Notebook that is Ideal for Artists on the Go

LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE / September 27, 2016 / Tim Tu and his associates Angela and Erik, a group of creative entrepreneurs from Taiwan, are pleased to announce the launch of their new SketchyNotebook.

To learn more about the cool new sketchbook and watch a short video about its many features, please visit http://goo.gl/9s25aC.

As a spokesperson for SketchyNotebook noted, any artist will nod in understanding when another mentions their stacks of drawing pads and notebooks.

“There are different books for drawing with lines, grids, dots, for web mockups, and storyboards – never mind the different paper weights and materials for various mediums,” the spokesperson said.

SketchyNotebook is aiming to provide the most convenient all-in-one notebook for all of the artist’s sketching needs. The hardcover book features 240 pages of 80 gsm acid-free blank paper, which is suitable for use with pencils, ink pens, fountain pens, color markers, and permanent markers without worry about leak through.

Each book comes with a basic template pack. These durable waterproof templates can be slipped underneath a blank page to be used as a guide.

“That means no distracting grids or lines will be left on the page and the focus can be put back on the drawing once the template is removed. Each PVC template has UV print on top and is easy to clean,” the spokesperson said.

The SketchyNotebook will become an artist’s go-to notebook. It’s great for when one is traveling or working away from home or the studio. There is no worry about lugging along a bag filled with 10-plus notebooks. The book also opens to 180 degrees, each page tears out cleanly and easily, and it includes a pocket to hold loose pages and templates. The SketchyNotebook is available in letter size, A5, and A6 to suit the artist’s needs.

In order to help pay for the production and marketing costs associated with creating the SketchyNotebook, Tim, Angela and Erik recently launched a fundraiser on Kickstarter. They hope to raise $30,000 through crowdfunding to help bring the easy-to-use, attractive and intuitive notebook into the eager hands of as many artists as possible.

About SketchyNotebook:

SketchyNotebook is designed to be a minimalist notebook. It has all the little details that make for a quality notebook, with the addition unique template designs stored in the expandable back pocket if people need them. For more information, please visit http://goo.gl/9s25aC.

Bladeflex is worn over the shoulders and connects behind the back to pull the shoulders into proper alignment

LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE / September 27, 2016 / Derek Nolt is pleased to announce Bladeflex, a device that keeps the upper body in alignment by pulling sagging shoulders back into proper position.

To learn more about Bladeflex, please visit: https://goo.gl/zzM05V.

In today’s high stress world, sitting at a desk hunched over a computer or working manual labor for hours at a time is the norm for millions of people across the globe. Back problems result from ergonomically unnatural working positions, and deeper health issues are usually not far behind.

One of the main issues which stem from improper upper body posture is hypertension in the shoulders and upper back, causing headaches, loss of energy, and even compromised digestion.

Derek Nolt experienced first-hand the consequences of poor posture. Having suffered a car accident and injuries including a broken collar bone, his job as a construction worker only exacerbated his mounting upper body issues.

“Having physiotherapy, massage therapy or other various forms of treatment helped me with these ailments but having something that I could easily use on a daily basis really made a difference,” says Nolt. “That was the reasoning behind developing Bladeflex.”

Bladeflex is a fully adjustable device which features extendable back straps that allow the user to perform regular movements while encouraging them to return to correct posture. The back of Bladeflexhas 2 circular blade disks connected with a dual hinge that anchors the device to the shoulder blades, and doubles as spring housing for the retractable straps. The torque clips are fully adjustable, allowing the user to adjust the level of resistance until they can maintain proper posture on their own.

In order to take Bladeflex into mass production, Nolt and his team first need to fund the high cost of mold creation. 10 individual components are required, each needing to be CNC machined for molding. To offset some of the costs of this step, Nolt has taken Bladeflex to the pages of Kickstarter where he seeks backers to help him roll it out to a worldwide audience.

About Bladeflex:

Bladeflex is a device that helps pull the shoulders back into proper alignment. By using state of the art design and components, Bladeflex goes a step beyond standard upper body braces by being fully adjustable, retractable, and flexible.

The Innovative and Cleverly-Designed Removable Toilet Seat Makes Cleaning and Sanitizing Much Easier

LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE / September 27, 2016 / The founder of Hyto, a company based in Salzburg, Austria, is pleased to announce the creation of his innovative Hygienischer Toilettensitz toilet seat.

To learn more about the removable Hyto toilet seat and watch a short video that shows how it works, please visit https://goo.gl/jWSuSh.

As most people know quite well, keeping surfaces free of harmful bacteria is a step toward ensuring safety, but toilets present an obstacle. The toilet seat cannot always be fully sanitized and the hinges can hold harmful fecal coliform and other infectious and dangerous strains.

“Hyto is creating a new removable toilet seat that will be compatible with any standard toilet,” noted a company spokesperson, adding that the lid and seat stay secure while the toilet is in use, but can then be easily removed by “unlocking” the lid and then removing the seat from the special mounting system.

“The seat and cover can be sanitized and the entire surface of the bowl can be cleaned without any obstacles getting in the way.”

The seat is also simple to use; it slides onto the mounts for easy assembly and disassembly. Hyto is ideal for areas where hygiene is a particular concern, such as hospitals, nursing homes, rehabilitation centers and schools.

“Other toilet seats do not allow for the same level of sanitation. This innovative seat allows for thorough cleaning,” the spokesperson said, adding that it is also a great device for use in the home to ensure that one’s bathroom is kept clean and safe.

The founder of Hyto is a former development engineer for a leading company in the health sector in Salzburg. With the invention of the new Hyto toilet seat, he hopes to make further contributions to the world around him and help make bathrooms less germy, one toilet seat at a time.

To help pay for the production and marketing costs associated with creating the new removable toilet seat, the founder of Hyto recently launched a fundraiser on Kickstarter. He hopes to raise $67,204 through crowdfunding to help bring the revolutionary and easily-cleaned toilet seat into as many bathrooms as possible. As a bonus, the seat can also now be preordered on Kickstarter.

About Hygienischer Toilettensitz:

Hygienischer Toilettensitz, or the Hyto toilet seat, is a new removable toilet seat that is compatible with any existing seat. The seat can easily be removed for easy cleaning. For more information, please visit https://goo.gl/jWSuSh.

HONG KONG, CHINA / ACCESSWIRE / September 27, 2016 / Takung Art Co., Ltd. (OTCQB: TKAT), an online platform for acquiring shared ownership units in Asian and other fine art, jewelry and precious gems, today said that, in a move to add the valuable gemstone southern red agate to its art portfolio, it has entered into a strategic cooperation agreement with two art-related organizations.

The first, Nanhong Culture Professional Committee of the China Culture Information Association, is a committee approved by the Ministry of Civil Affairs of China whose function includes promoting southern red agate culture by holding seminars, appraisals, assessments and exhibitions throughout China. The second group, Wenhua Dagong (Hong Kong) Culture Communication Co., Ltd. is the authorized agent for owners of southern red agate to be listed on Takung’s online trading platform.

The purpose of signing the agreement, said Takung, is for the company to add southern red agate to its online trading platform and also for the parties to cooperate in carrying out in-depth research on the Chinese art market and strive to promote the nation’s fine arts and culture.

Southern red agate, otherwise known as “red jade,” is unique to China and among its most precious gemstones. Originating from Baoshan in Yunnan Province and Liangshan in Sichuan Province, jewelry made of southern red agate has been found in noble tombs as early as the Chinese Warring States (476 to 221 B.C.) period. A phoenix head cup made of southern red agate from the Qing Dynasty is currently on display in the Palace Museum in Beijing, and southern red agate jewelry is also exhibited in the Museum of Yunnan Province. The gemstone, sought after by collectors and enthusiasts across the globe, is considered a Chinese national treasure and its value has risen sharply in recent years.

Commenting on the agreement, Takung chief executive Mr. Di Xiao said he believed it will help Takung to “maximize our retention rate of current traders and attract many new middle-class traders looking for partial ownership in precious gems.

“The addition of these gems, in turn, will likely lead to more trading volume and higher listing fee and commission revenue for Takung. We also believe that, as in the past, new and interesting pieces accelerate in value at a high rate, allowing our traders in most cases to make healthy profits.”

Takung intends to add an increasing variety of artworks representing Chinese arts and culture to its trading portfolio, said Mr. Xiao, and believes that this strategy will likely augment both its roster of traders and overall trading volume.

The Takung online portfolio has appreciated over 700 percent during the last year, noted Mr. Xiao, far outperforming the broad Chinese art market, which has, at best, remained flat.

“As stated,” added Mr. Xiao, “Takung intends to work with these two organizations to promote Chinese arts and culture — not only within our own nation, but to the rest of the world. To this objective, we will also seek out additional relationships with other arts and cultural associations in China, in countries that we have expanded into such as Mongolia and Russia, and in other nations around the world.”

This May, Takung teamed with the Chinese Federation of Culture and Arts, a California non-profit organization, to sponsor the Silicon Valley Chinese Art Exhibition in Sunnyvale, California.

ABOUT TAKUNG ART CO., LTD: www.takungart.com

Based in Hong Kong, Takung Art Co., Ltd. is an online trading platform for acquiring shared ownership in Asian and other fine art, jewelry and precious gems. This proprietary platform allows collectors and investors – including those with modest financial resources — to buy and sell units of these assets and participate in the booming Asian art market. The company’s shared-ownership business model significantly expands the number of interactions between sellers and buyers of fine art far beyond those generated by art galleries and auction houses alone.

Takung operates its online trading platform via three wholly-owned subsidiaries, Hong Kong Takung Assets and Equity of Artworks Exchange Co. Ltd., Takung (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., and Takung Cultural Development (Tianjin) Co., Ltd.

Three Peaks uses Silver embed materials to create men’s basics that fight bacteria and prevent odor

LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE / September 27, 2016 / Three Peaks is proud to announce their new line of men’s basics. The line features “Airknit” socks, briefs and tees which are made from proprietary materials mixed with bacteria killing silver.

To learn more about Three Peaks, please visit: https://goo.gl/XQlWrD

With the goal of creating a perfect line of men’s basics, the team at Three Peaks spent the last year sourcing blends of materials that would not only satisfy the stylistic tastes of their customers, but which would also neutralize odors.

They settled upon the mixture of Marino wool and pure silver for their socks, and modal and silver for their briefs and tees.

Modal is a synthetic fiber made from sustainable Beachwood trees. It reportedly has twice the strength of cotton, twice the softness, is 50% more absorbent, and doesn’t shrink or fade.

Silver, which is blended with the materials in all Three Peaks clothing, is an odor fighting material because it neutralizes bacteria. Many people believe that sweat creates the odors found in clothing, but it’s actually because of the bacteria that results from sweat. Bacteria are eradicated by silver, and is therefore the chosen fabric blend used for astronaut’s undergarments and the clothing of elite athletes.

“Most socks, boxers, and tee-shirts are designed be replaced every 3 to 4 months, but most men hold on to their basics well past their expiration dates until they’re riddled with holes,” says the website. “Sadly, high-end men’s basic wear is often too expensive and too sporty for everyday wear and unaffordable for many men. Lack of convenience and cost are typical reasons why some men don’t replace or update these items more regularly.”

In addition to their new line of men’s basics, Three Peaks is rolling out a subscription service to make their clothing always available to their clients. Their belief is that no man should have to wait past the expiration of his clothing, and the service is intended to be a hassle-free way to always have fresh socks, briefs, and tees.

In order to introduce their line of men’s basics to a wider audience, the team at Three Peaks has brought their products to Kickstarter where they hope to raise the funds necessary to take them to mass production.

About Three Peaks:

Three Peaks is a clothing company that sources the best materials for their line of socks, briefs, and tees. Using sustainable materials such as Marino wool and modal, they mix their fabrics with odor fighting silver to produce a line of clothing that is a cut above traditional men’s basics.
