Canada – October 06, 2026 -- Angelcare Group has launched Hygenie, a new disposal system for adult incontinence products designed to blend into home decor while locking in odor. The pail system, which ships with 24 refill bags, is now available on Amazon US and Target online for $84.99 USD.

An odor-locking clamp seals waste instantly

Hygenie uses a clamp system engineered in Canada that seals immediately after each use, the company says, aiming to control odor without interrupting daily routines for users or caregivers.

The pail holds up to 12 extra-large adult briefs

An extra-wide opening is built to fit briefs of any size, while the high-capacity pail accommodates up to 12 XL adult briefs before it needs to be emptied, reducing how often caregivers or users need to intervene.

Paris – September 09, 2026 -- French enduro champion Mathias Bellino is opening a new chapter in his off-road career with support from Segway Powersports, which has provided him with a Super Villain SX20T side-by-side vehicle.

Bellino built a decorated career before a 2018 crash ended professional racing

Bellino won the Enduro Junior World Championship in 2012 and the Enduro E3 World Championship in 2015. He was also part of French teams that won the ISDE Junior World Trophy three consecutive years, from 2011 to 2013. Raised in a family passionate about motorcycles, he started riding at age four before moving through motocross into elite enduro competition.

In August 2018, during his first cross-country rally, the Desafío Ruta 40 in Argentina, Bellino crashed and suffered severe spinal injuries while working toward his goal of competing in the Rallye Dakar. The accident ended his career as a professional racer.

CLAYTON, N.Y. -- September 01, 2026 -- Evan Kung, a Canadian pro fighting to keep his roster spot on the Bassmaster Elite Series, won the 2026 Lowrance Bassmaster Elite at St. Lawrence River on Aug. 30 with a four-day total of 109 pounds, 9 ounces. The catch set a new Bassmaster record for the heaviest winning weight made up entirely of smallmouth bass. The win also locked in Kung's berth at the 2027 Bass Pro Shops Bassmaster Classic presented by Under Armour, set for next March.

Kung's total overtook the previous mark of 105 pounds, set by Patrick Walters at the same river in 2023, and made him a first-time member of the Bassmaster Century Club. "This is by far my biggest win," Kung said. "It was a tough year for me, so it was great to end it like this. I couldn't think of a better ending."
