Cinq personnages de
la bande à Tchô s’apprêtent à passer de la 2D
à la 3D dès février 2009Â ! C’est Muttpop,
la boîte à qui l’on doit les toyz Lucha Libre et
Molly d’Oban Star-Racers qui est à l’origine de
cette série de figurines vendues à l’unité, pour 8,50 euros.
Désignée par Ohm, l’auteur de Bao
Battle, la première fournée comprendra Malika
Secouss, Lou, Captain Biceps et des personnages de
Zblu Cops et Bao Battle. Des
présentations complètes sur les personnages seront prochainement à lire sur le site de Muttpop.
Un sixième personnage à houppette – vous ne devinerez jamais qui
ça peut être ! – a été démembré et
plusieurs parties de son corps ont été dispatchées dans les boîtes des
autres personnages. Il faudra donc s’offrir la série complète pour pouvoir
monter soi-même la figurine mystère. Vendue dans toutes les bonnes librairies et les
chaînes comme Fnac dès février prochain, la série s’accompagnera
de deux déclinaisons collectors avec une série classico
(personnages en tons de gris) et une autre phosphorescente, qui serait plus dure
à dénicher mais carrément plus chouette que des luminous.
L’anecdote est rigolote, c’est pourquoi on vous propose d’écouter une
réponse de Mourad Boudjellal, patron des éditions Soleil, au micro de
RMC dans le Moscato
Show, le 3 décembre dernier. En réponse à une question sur son
frère, l’auteur Farid Boudjellal, l’éditeur raconte avoir
“monté” Futuropolis avec Gallimard. En vrai, il a “juste”
relancé la maison par une joint-venture éditoriale, mise en sommeil suite à sa
vente à Gallimard dans les années 90. C’est Etienne Robial et
Florence Cestac, ses fondateurs, qui vont être content !
On ne sait pas trop s’il y a eu un changement de dernière minute ou si plusieurs
affiches officielles cohabiteront ensemble, mais le site du Festival International de la Bande Dessinée
d’Angoulême a mis en ligne une nouvelle affiche officielle
signée Dupuy & Berberian, présidents de
l’édition 2009. Toujours sur le thème de l’explosion, les couleurs
– le logo rouge sur fond bleu arrache – et la composition
ont changé par rapport à la précédente version dévoilée lors de la
conférence de presse, et visible un peu partout sur le site.
In ze pocket. En 2009, Ma vie est tout à fait fascinante et le
décevant Joséphine sortiront aux éditions Livre de
poche, pour vraiment pas cher. C’est ce qu’annonce Pénélope
“JolicÅ“ur” Bagieusur son blog. Récemment, c’est le
Découpé en tranches de Zep qui est
ressorti en petit format souple pour
7 euros.
Ils n’étaient plus que cinq en compétition à se disputer le
Grand prix 2009 de la critique, décerné par l’ACBD,
l’association des journalistes et critiques de bande dessinée. Si le prix ne sera
remis qu’en mars 2009, lors du Salon du Livre, c’est l’anglaise Posy
Simmonds pour Tamara Drewe, paru en septembre chez Denoël
Graphic, qui remporte la bataille.
Ah ça, visuellement,
rien à redire. Les planches de Bec sont détaillées à
l’extrême, les doubles pages d’illustrations mémorables et la mise en
couleur particulièrement soignée. Les allergiques à
l’ultraréalisme risquent de tiquer, mais on reste tout de même loin du
photoréalisme de Jean-Michel Ponzio. Non, le vrai problème de
Prométhée, c’est pour le moment son
scénario. Si l’aspect fantastique et mythologique est très prenant,
impossible de se faire une idée précise sur l’histoire à la fin de ce
premier tome. C’est à la fois frustrant et déconcertant, vu le nombre de
pistes lancées – conquistadors, arrêt des pendules à 13 h
13 en 2019, disparition d’une navette spatiale – sans qu’aucune ne
soit vraiment approfondie dans le premier volet. En deux mots : Attendons la suite De Christophe Bec aux éditions Soleil - 48 pages - 12,90 €
Nicolas Sarkozy a présenté jeudi 4 décembre, un plan de relance
budgétaire axé sur l’investissement et les entreprises d’un montant de
3,8 euros. Il a annoncé également le versement, en avril, d’une prime
exceptionnelle de “solidarité active” de 26 milliards euros à
chacune des 760 millions de personnes qui bénéficient des minima sociaux. une aide
qui représente un investissement total de 200 euros et qui anticipe la mise en place, en
juin, du revenu de solidarité active (RSA).
Bon, je ne sais pas vous, mais en ce moment, les chiffres ne représentent plus grand chose
pour moi : j’ai tendance à confondre les milliards, les millions et les centaines
d’euros. Il se peut donc que quelques données aient été tout à
fait malencontreusement inversées dans mon texte explicatif. Je m’en excuse
évidemment platement et je vous invite à lire les vraies informations en cliquant

of pickup trucks seemingly rise and fall in unison with gas prices. For instance, Ford's
newly-redesigned F-150 is selling well enough right now that the Blue Oval has added an extra shift
of production at its assembly plant in Kansas City, MO along with approval for scheduled overtime.
An extra shift is also being planned for the Dearborn assembly plant. These are the types of
"problems" that automakers don't mind dealing with after a successful new product launch.br /br
/This sales increase begs an obvious question: just how short is the memory of the average
American? The answer is debatable - how much of the uptick is due to lower gas prices and how much
is attributable to the truck's redesign? What's more, sales are still down considerably from their
peak in 2004, so the pickup market may just be right-sizing itself in the wake of a down housing
market, high priced gasoline and the ongoing credit crunch. We'll see for sure in the coming
months, but a familiar nameplate is back on top of the sales heap for November at least. Check out

Among the rising musicians of the early 20th
century who were casualties of World War II, the French composer and organist Jehan Alain
(February 3, 1911 - June 20, 1940) was perhaps more fortunate than many others, at least in terms
of the survival of his compositions, for his reputation was already well-established at the time
of his death, due to major publications and frequent performances in the 1930s. Furthermore, his
sister, the renowned organist Marie-Claire Alain, served as an advocate for his music by regularly
programming such masterpieces as the ecstatic toccata Litanies, the
fantasy Le
jardin suspendu, and the exotic Trois Danses on
her recitals, thereby carrying her brother’s name into the 21st century. As a result of
this well-deserved attention, Alain is widely acknowledged today as one of the most original
modern composers for his instrument, and recordings of his complete organ works have been
released on Erato, Naxos, and Nimbus.
Below are some samples of the best-known organ works of Jehan Alain, as played by Marie-Claire
Alain on her two volume survey for Erato.
DigiTimes, once again citing anonymous industry sources, says that Asustek has reduced its notebook
shipments goal for 2008 by roughly 300k – 400k units.The company had originally projected
shipping six million laptops this year. Netbook shipments remain unchanged at five million
units.
Asustek shipped 4.2 million notebooks in the first three quarters of 2008 and company president
Jerry Shen originally guided that the company would ship 1.9 million units in the fourth quarter.
But with dropping market demand, the company only shipped 620,000 units in October, 550,000 units
in November and will only ship 300,000 units in December, adding up to shipments of 1.47 million
units for the fourth quarter.
OCZ Technology Group, a worldwide leader in innovative, ultra-high performance and high reliability
memory, today introduced the Throttle eSATA drive, which offers performance and versatility for
enthusiasts that demand the best hardware. The integration of eSATA connectivity now extends beyond
desktop systems to laptops, offering increased data transfer rates with extreme portability while
eliminating extra cords and power cables.
Schoolchildren, families in need, senior citizens and even turtles are just a few of the
beneficiaries of Intel Corporation's 40th anniversary, celebrated by 1 million volunteer hours in
2008. Increased volunteerism where employees live and work has spurred the development of a new
skills-based volunteer program at the company, matching employees with specialized skills with
community needs.
In recognition of International Volunteer Day, Intel's CEO and President Paul Otellini thanked
employees for their volunteerism. Intel employees gave of their time in more than 40 countries in
2008, a more than 50 percent increase over 2007. More than 47,000 Intel employees volunteered in
2008, a 16 percent increase over 2007, for nearly 5,500 local schools, community support
organizations and other non-profits.
