Même le bon pain complet est plein de pesticides utilisés en raison des conditions de stockage dans les grands moulins

2012-01-07T15:32:00+01:00

Achetez des farines Label rouge.... pour l'éviter. Seul un un grand distributeur et les artisans-boulangers s'obligent à utiliser ces farines sans pesticides.

La plupart des pains complets industriels contiennent donc des pesticides en grande quantités... à savoir le PIRIMIPHOS METHYL et le PIPERONYL BUTOXIDE

et de miches !

A MON PERE

2011-09-18T18:04:00+02:00

Quand je suis avec toi,

J'aime me promener dans les bois,

Le coeur léger, les yeux qui brillent,

Je redeviens petite fille,

Assise au bord du talus,

Du ciel le blé tombe tout nu,

Il est doré, il sent la terre,

Celle qui pour toi, n'a pas de mystère,

Car tout ce que tu touches renaît,

Toi qui a plein de p'tits secrets,

Donne-moi un peu quelques recettes,

Même si tu gardes tout dans la tête.

Dans le four, le pain est cuit,

Près de l'âtre, mes tracas s'enfuient,

J'aime le parfum de la farine et de l'osier,

La grande pelle que tu as façonnée,

Saveurs et goût authentiques,

Tu fais ton pain, c'est fantastique,

Sache que je garderai en moi,

A jamais ces parfums d'autrefois,

Oh mon père, druide aux yeux bleus,

Lorsque tu monteras aux cieux,

Tous tes conseils, toutes ces histoires,

Resteront gravés dans ma mémoire.

Tu fais du bon pain,

Pétri de tes mains,

Tu caresses la pâte,

Qui lève et s'éclate,

Dégageant un parfum sucré

De miel d'été.

Qu'il est beau ce moment,

Où devant le four béant,

Tu sculptes de tes doigts,

Cette pâte qui deviendra,

Une boule dorée,

Couleur de blé,

Tendre et croustillante,

A l'odeur si enivrante,

Que personne ne résistera,

Au plaisir et à la joie,

De déguster, avec les honneurs,

Ce pain qui fait notre bonheur !

Un Four à Bois à CalTerra !

2011-08-31T21:07:00+02:00

Lundi 22 et mardi 23 Août ... deux journées bien remplies et hautes en couleurs !

Accompagné d'une journaliste, de Gérard Vivès et de quatre jeunes motivés et avides d'apprendre la construction d'un four à bois en terre crue, Rémy Quehon a passé deux jours à Lamothe. Artisan et formateur, il a ouvert notre esprit à la création de ce four et a aiguisé notre curiosité quant à leur Histoire.

Mais avant de commencer, je me permets d'ajouter ici le lien vers son site internet : http://www.foursabois-nbio.com/

Il faut tout d'abord un beau socle pour accueillir le nouveau venu... Aussitôt dit, aussitôt fait ! Gérard Vivès, spécialiste pour les créations plutôt originales, construisit ce magnifique socle, avec une petite voûte en BTC pour reccueillir le bois...

Dos au vent dominant du lieu, l'emplacement parait idéal...

Rémy nous explique les caractéristiques d'un four à bois. En faisant attention à garder les proportions idéales pour que la convection, la radiation et la conduction se réalisent, le four fonctionnnera bien.

Position de la "sole" : juxtaposition de plusieurs briques réfractaires pour créer la sole du four.

Une fois la sole posée, Rémy trace le cercle qui nous servira de "frontière" à ne pas dépasser pour que le moule du four soit parfait...

Le sable humide recouvrant petit à petit la sole et le cercle tracé, nous lui faisons prendre la forme d'un dome.

Passer la main délicatement sur le sable permet d'obtenir une surface suffisament lisse pour accueillir la terre crue...

Pendant ce temps... l'eau et la terre se mélangent...

Tout le monde n'ose pas y aller d'un coup... on se tate... ;)

Puis, enfin, on se lance ! ça chatouille entre les orteils !

Une fois la terre bien amoureuse, on pose du journal mouillé sur le dôme en sable du four... (Non, promis, ce n'est pas de la politique... !)

Lorsque La Dépêche du Midi aura recouvert tout le sable, on pourra enfin commencer à mettre la main à la pâte !

La terre engloutie le sable jusqu'à se refermer entièrement ... Attention à la Clé de voûte hein !

Le Dôme de terre s'est refermé... on peut imaginer à quoi va ressembler ce four...

La fin de la journée s'impose d'elle-même... Nous avons trop bavardé, le four n'est pas finit ! Rendez vous demain matin, aux aurores... :)

Mélanger la terre, l'eau et la paille broyée amuse tout le monde mais cela déclenche chez certains un retour à l'enfance très poignant ! :)

(autrement dit, chez nous tous)

Et puis, alors que certain se repose de cette matinée épuisante....

D'autres se remettent à recouvrir le four...

Le four est enfin terminé...

Il ne nous reste plus qu'à enlever la "porte"...

Une fois que la "porte" est retirée,

il nous faut enlever le sable et

décoller le journal encore humide...

L'intérieur du four ...

Un nouveau vaccin contre l'hpatite C?

2011-08-05T11:05:46+02:00

Une quipe de chercheurs europens a obtenu des rsultats encourageants en testant un nouveau type de vaccin contre l'hpatite C sur des animaux.

Un nouvel espoir pour les malades atteints de l'hpatite C. Une quipe europenne de chercheurs a rvl des rsultats prometteurs d'une nouvelle stratgie de dveloppement d'un vaccin contre le virus de l'hpatite C (VHC) qui fait aujourd'hui cruellement dfaut.

Dans le cadre d'une tude europenne coordonne par David Klatzmann (CNRS/Universit Pierre et Marie Curie/Inserm) et soutenue par l'Agence nationale de recherches sur le sida et les hpatites virales (ANRS), des chercheurs ont mis au point vaccin exprimental test sur des animaux.

Le virus neutralis chez la souris et le macaque

La nouveaut de l'tude publie mercredi dans la revue Science Translational Medicine rside dans l'laboration de pseudo-particules virales "chimriques", c'est--dire construites avec des fragments issus de deux virus diffrents. Les chercheurs ont observ, en raction une vaccination avec ces pseudo-particules virales, la production d'anticorps neutralisant le virus du VHC chez la souris et le macaque.

Ces anticorps se sont rvls capables d'induire une immunit contre les diffrents sous-types du VHC, alors que les tentatives dans ce sens avaient jusqu' prsent chou.

Il n'existe aucun vaccin l'heure actuelle contre le VHC qui se transmet essentiellement par voie sanguine (utilisation de drogues par voie intraveineuse, transfusion, transplantation d'organes).

Les rsultats de cette rcente tude pourraient tre applicables au dveloppement de stratgies similaires pour des vaccins contre d'autres infections, comme le VIH, la dengue ou encore le Virus Respiratoire Syncytial (cause la plus frquente de la bronchiolite du nourrisson).

Haïku Nabirosinais

2011-08-04T03:32:00+02:00

Les Haikus ne sont connus en Occident que depuis le début du XXem siècle. Les écrivains occidentaux ont tenté de s'inspirer de cette forme de poésie très brève la plupart du temps, ils ont choisi de transposer le Haïku japonais qui s'écrivait sur une seule colonne sous la forme d'un tercet de 3 vers de 5, 7 et 5 syllabes pour les haïkus occidentaux. quand on compose un Haïku en français, on remplace en général les mores par des syllabes, "mais c'est quoi les mores exactement ?" se demandera notre lecteur chéri (à supposer qu'il ne sache pas...) Et comme je fais désormais les questions et les réponses, je vous dirai qu'il ne faudra pas craindre celle-là (de réponse ! suivez un peu, vous irez vous baigner après), et donc, la more est un son élémentaire émis lors de la phonation. Son nom provient du latin "Mora" signifiant "retard" ou "délai". Comme beaucoup de termes spécifiques à la linguistique, sa définition exacte est contestée, mais bon, grosso-modo, sans rentrer dans les discussions, il s'agit d'une notion plus fine que celle de syllabe. Dans les langues syllabiques, chaque syllabe est constituée d'une ou plusieurs mores, qui en déterminent le poids, ce dernier déterminant à son tour l'accent tonique du mot, ou son rythme. Dans certaines langues, dites "moriques", la notion de syllabe, d'ailleurs, n'existe pas, une syllabe qui contient une seule more est appelée "monomorique" ou "monomoraïque", si elle est composée de deux mores elle est appelée "bimorique" ou "bimoraïque". La langue japonaise est connue pour sa structure en mores. La plupart des dialectes utilise les mores (haku en japonais) plutôt que les syllabes comme fondement de son système phonique. Une syllabe française peut contenir jusqu'à trois mores, ce qui engendre des poèmes irréguliers. Quant à la notion de more, si elle existe en Nabirosina, le nabirosinais considère qu'il n'est guère besoin de se casser la tête avec ça, ce n'est déjà pas mince affaire de traduire tant bien que mal le patois nabirosinais (dit rachollasi) en bon français moderne, on pourra donc considérer que le Haïku nabirosinais est peut-être l'un des seul Haïku au monde à n'obéir qu'à sa propre loi.

Photo : Offert par la boulangère du village, ce poème-Haïku chanté par Ricky Vacance (et sa cornemuse à pain) ravira vos matins, vos midis, vos soirées, (j'ai testé pour vous). Un fragment de pure poésie vue au Nabirosina doux.

Revolutionary Guard praises idea of nuke testing

2011-06-11T12:47:13+02:00

An article praising the idea of Iran testing a nuclear bomb on a Revolutionary Guard website is raising alarms in western intelligence circles, which interpret it as evidence of strong backing in the Islamic Republic for such a move.

Entitled "The Day After the First Iranian Nuclear Test — a Normal Day," the article coincides with other public or suspected activities that the United States and its allies see as indications that Tehran wants to possess atomic arms.

"The day after the first Iranian nuclear test for us Iranians will be an ordinary day, but in the eyes of many of us, it will have a new shine, from the power and dignity of the nation," says the article published on the Gerdab site run by the Revolutionary Guard.

A translation that was vetted by The Associated Press was provided by a Western official who asked for anonymity because of the nature of his information.

Iran denies nuclear weapons intentions — while moving consistently closer to such a capacity.

An International Atomic Energy Agency report last month listed "high-voltage firing and instrumentation for explosives testing over long distances and possibly underground" as one of seven "areas of concern" that Iran may be conducting clandestine nuclear weapons work.

Adding to concerns Wednesday, the country's nuclear chief announced that his country will soon install more advanced equipment at a fortified underground site to allow it to enrich uranium faster and to higher levels.

Iran says it wants to enrich only to power a future network of reactors. But over the past two years it has started to enrich uranium to a level higher than what is needed for nuclear fuel and closer to the grade used to make the fissile core of nuclear warheads.

On Wednesday, Vice President and nuclear head Fereidoun Abbasi announced Iran would increase its capacity to enrich to that higher level — near 20 percent — by installing more efficient centrifuges and would triple the output of the higher grade material.

The move comes despite four rounds of U.N. Security Council sanctions over Tehran's refusal to halt enrichment.

Abbasi said that the new generation centrifuges would be set up at the Fordo site near the holy city of Qom in central Iran.

Built next to a military complex to protect it in case of an attack, Fordo was long kept secret and was only acknowledged by Iran shortly before Western intelligence agencies went public with it in September 2009. The area is heavily protected by the powerful Revolutionary Guard.

Low-enriched uranium — at around 3.5 percent — can be used to fuel a reactor to generate electricity. But if uranium is further enriched to around 90 percent purity, it can be used to develop a nuclear warhead — and enriching to 90 percent can be done much more quickly from near 20 percent than from low-enriched material.

Iran has been producing low-enriched uranium for years and began higher enrichment in February 2010, asserting it needs the higher grade material to produce fuel for a Tehran reactor that makes medical radioisotopes needed for cancer patients.

David Albright, whose Institute for Science and International Security tracks suspected proliferators, said it was unrealistic for Tehran to accelerate production of 20-percent uranium to the degree stated by Abbasi for that one research reactor.

"It doesn't make any sense for civil research purposes," he said. "They are not going to build for or five research reactors."

The article on the website — along with Wednesday's announcement on enrichment and the IAEA suspicions about secret experiments — strengthens concerns that "they are moving toward nuclear weapons," he said.

The article ends with an Arabic quote from the Quaran: "And prepare against them whatever you are able of power and of steeds of war by which you may terrify the enemy of Allah and your enemy."

The official said that the article was first posted in April. The Farsi version was still on the website late Wednesday.

Albright speculated that its publication reflected that at least some powerful Revolutionary Guard factions supported such a test, even if the article did not express the position of the Iranian leadership as a whole.

"This could be reflecting an internal debate," he said.

Facebook gives regulators info on facial recognition

2011-06-09T03:01:46+02:00

Facebook is providing European regulators with information about its use of facial recognition technology, in response to concerns about the company's roll-out of the technology's availability outside of the United States.

Facebook, the world's No. 1 Internet social network, said there was no "formal investigation" under way.

"We have noted the comments from some regulators about this product feature and we are providing them with additional information which we are confident will satisfy any concerns they will have," Facebook spokeswoman Sophy Tobias told Reuters in an email on Wednesday.

The move comes after comments by Gerard Lommel, a Luxembourg member of the so-called Article 29 Data Protection Working Party, who said the group would study Facebook's use of facial recognition technology for possible rules violations, according to a report in Bloomberg earlier on Wednesday.

The Data Protection Working Party, a group of 27 national data protection and privacy agencies that advises the European Commission on privacy issues, could not immediately be reached for comment.

On Tuesday, Facebook said it had expanded the availability of its "Tag Suggestions" product, which uses facial recognition technology to automatically identify the people who appear in certain photos posed on Facebook.

Facebook, which announced in December that it planned to introduce the service in the United States, said on Tuesday that the feature was in fact now available in "most countries" and acknowledged that it should have been "more clear with people during the roll-out process when this became available to them."

The lack of notification about the wider roll-out of the new technology and the fact that Facebook has automatically enabled the technology in users' settings have raised concerns among some privacy advocates, who say it should be up to users to switch it on.

While facial recognition technology is used in other photo products such as Apple Inc's iPhoto and Google Inc's Picasa, Facebook's use of the technology across its social network of more than 500 million users could raise novel privacy issues, according to Marc Rotenberg, president of the privacy-advocacy group Electronic Privacy Information Center.

The Facebook product scans users' newly uploaded photos, comparing the faces in the photos against previously labeled photos to see if it can match any of the people. If a match is found, Facebook alerts the person uploading the photos and invites them to "tag," or identify, the person in the photo.

Facebook said the product helps speed up the process of identifying and labeling people in photos, a popular practice among Facebook users that the company said currently occurs more than 100 million times a day.

Facebook has stressed that the automated photo-tagging suggestions are only made when new photos are added to Facebook, that only friends are suggested and that users can disable the feature in their privacy settings.

Partager le pain et le sel

2011-06-03T06:00:00+02:00

Une recette traditionnelle de pain algérien aujourd’hui. C’est un pain délicieux, très moelleux, que l’on mange avec les plats en sauce.

La recette est simple.

Les ingrédients :

200g de semoule de blé (la marque Panzani en vend au rayon blé, boulghour etc...)
350g de farine
1 cube de levure de boulanger
1cuillère à café 1/2 de sel

1 cuillère à soupe d’huile d’olive

de l’eau tiède

Mettre le cube de levure dans un fond d’eau tiède, la faire fondre. Dans un grand plat, mélanger la semoule et la farine, ainsi que le sel et l’huile d’olive. Bien mélanger, avant de rajouter la levure. Bien malaxer, genre 10 minutes, tout en rajoutant au fur et à mesure un peu d’eau tiède, de façon à obtenir une pâte souple et élastique.

Former une boule et la laisser sous un torchon le temps qu’elle lève : environ 1 heure. Puis reprendre la boule et pétrir à nouveau, bien chasser l’air. En général je pétris encore une bonne dizaine de minutes. Puis former deux pâtons, leur donner une forme à peu près arrondi (je n’y arrive jamais…) avec une épaisseur de2 cmenviron. Laisser encore lever une petite heure.

Enfin, cuire chaque galette sur un plat en fonte, ou bien sur une poêle adhésive, à feu doux, environ 10 minutes de chaque côté.

Si on veut, on peut ajouter des graines de sésame, ou de carvi, sur le dessus de la pâte avant la cuisson.

E-readers vs. tablets: Why they're two different beasts

2011-05-29T07:29:45+02:00

">Today there is a bit of a stink about thewith its two month battery life.Granted, no matter how you look at it, the battery life of an e-reader is going to be several times that of a tablet but you are giving up a lot to get there. On the other hand Kindle fanatics and I am one wouldnt trade our beloved Kindles for any tablet for what we think are very good reasons.Over the next decade many of these reasons will change and we will likely see the two categories get pulled together, but, as it was for the Blackberry when it moved from pager to smartphone, battery life is still likely to be collateral damage.

The Nook Mini-ScandalWhen the new touch Nook e-reader came to market a few days ago, which was twice what most others, including Amazon with their newest Kindle, claimed. The implication was a battery breakthrough, the reality was that while everyone else was assuming one hour of reading on average per day Barnes & Noble cut that estimate in half and presto: Two months.This would be like GM saying they had twice the mileage of Toyota but not pointing out they got there by only testing while the cars were driving downhill with a tail wind.Im not convinced an hour is realistic and, if you turn the 3G or Wi-Fi radios on, you get a couple of days regardless of how much you read. With the radio off and heavy reading (which is what I do) you generally get between one and two weeks which is more than enough and I see no point in making a claim that many of the most loyal users, who are heavy readers, will never realize.Why burn trust for no reason?

E-reader vs. TabletIt really comes down to how much and what you want to read.If you are mostly reading books and some newspapers with few pictures, an e-reader like the Kindle or black and white Nook is preferred. It costs a fraction of what a good tablet costs, is vastly lighter, works great in direct sunlight, has at least 2x the battery life (often more like 5x) and typically comes without any monthly charges and often with lifetime 3G connectivity (subsidized by the book/publication purchases).However while some have browsers, they suck, they wont do video, pictures are black and white, and most dont lay up a page very well so they tend to also suck at magazine viewing.E-readers are basically one trick ponies in that they are great at replacing paperback books and even better at replacing hard cover books but really not that great at anything else (some will play music but youd be better off with a real MP3 player).

If you lose one, you can disconnect it remotely from your credit card and, generally, the cost of the loss wont give you a coronary. Also, people seem to be more willing to return them to you if they find them (Ive left my Kindle on the plane and it was waiting for me at the Airline counter; doubt that would have happened with an iPad).

A tablet does the web nicely, is okay for reading outside of direct light (more for magazines and mixed media than books), does video, most are decent music players (and many have okay built in speakers), most can be used to navigate, are interesting mobile gaming platforms, and they typically have around 10 hours of battery life (good for most airline trips).The tradeoff is they are a bit harder on the eyes for heavy reading, dont like direct light at all (tend to glare out), they are relatively heavy to hold for long periods of time. If you have 3G you have to have a data contract, they cost up to 8x as much as a reader (and are a theft risk), they can contain a lot of personal information, and you need to charge the device at least once a day if you are using it.

In short if you mostly read, a tablet has a ton of disadvantages that have folks like me avoiding it.However if you mostly are into mixed media and occasionally read, ane-reader is totally inadequate.I have both a tablet and an e-readerbut I travel with my Kindle, and the tablet is used to work and play in bed (and it kind of makes a super alarm clock).

Wrapping Up: Different Tools for Different ThingsLike it was for me with e-readers , as cheap as they are you can likely afford one on top of a tablet and just get a cheaperif you are on a budget.Like it is with any other tool, it is generally best to get one that does the job you want it to do. While Im sure all of us have used a wrench as a hammer from time to time that isnt considered best practice.

Now, keep in mind that tablets will get lighter and cheaper, they will get transflective displays like , and content will increasingly be mixed and not just text.Until then pick the right tool for the right job and, if you are like me, you occasionally may end up with both.

Malawi leader hails Britain amid diplomatic spat

2011-05-01T16:05:00+02:00

Malawian President Bingu wa Mutharika on Friday hailed the British government for its "steadfast" support of the former colony, amid a diplomatic spat between the two countries.

In a statement for the birthday Thursday of Queen Elizabeth II, Mutharika said he hoped their diplomatic relationship would endure.

"The United Kingdom has remained steadfast in the support of Malawi. We hope that the diplomatic relationship between the two countries will continue to grow in the years to come," it said.

Malawi gained its independence from Britain in 1964 and London remains the biggest bilateral donor to the impoverished southern African nation, where half the 13 million citizens live below the poverty line and on less than a dollar a day.

Mutharika said their ties were not only "historical, but entrenched in good governance, transparency and accountability."

The row revolves around a leaked memo in which British high commissioner Fergus Cochrane-Dyet Mutharika allegedly said the president was becoming "ever more autocratic and intolerant of criticism."

Malawi has said it is considering declaring the official "persona non grata".

The British envoy also said in the memo that the "governance situation continues to deteriorate in terms of media freedoms, freedom of speech and minority rights."

Sony faces global legal action over data theft; shares fall

Sony Corp could face legal action across the globe after it delayed disclosing a security breach of its popular PlayStation Network, infuriating gamers and sending the firm's shares down nearly 5 percent in Tokyo Thursday.

Sony shut down the network on April 19 after discovering the breach, one of the biggest online data infiltrations ever. But it was not until Tuesday that the company said the system had been hacked and that users' data could have been stolen.

In the United States, several members of Congress seized on the breach, in which hackers stole names, addresses and possibly credit card details from 77 million users. One U.S. law firm filed a lawsuit in California on behalf of consumers.

"Gamers are angry that Sony's CEO hasn't come out to explain the situation and investors are disappointed over the company's corporate governance," said Michael Wang, manager of overseas funds at Prudential Financials in Taipei, which owns shares in Sony.

Sony's PlayStation Network, a service that produces an estimated $500 million in annual revenues, provides access to online games, movies and TV shows. Nine out of 10 of PlayStation's users are based in the United States or Europe.

Gamers could ditch Sony and analysts said people looking to buy a video game console could steer toward Microsoft Corp's Xbox, which has its own popular online network.

"I am outraged that my personal information may have been accessed by hackers," said Rich Chiang, a PlayStation and Xbox user in Shanghai.

Security experts said Sony would need to account for the loss of business -- as well as damage to its brand -- when it tallies up the cost. Other costs include notifying customers of the attack and bringing in experts to cleanse its network.

Larry Ponemon, chairman and founder of the Ponemon Institute, said the theft could cost Sony more than $1.5 billion, or an average of $20 for each of the 77 million customers whose data was potentially compromised. Poneman's firm specializes in securing information on computer networks.

Sony said the delay in notifying the public was needed to conduct a forensic investigation but it is fast becoming a public relations nightmare akin to Toyota Motor's bungled response to a giant vehicle recall last year, fuelling criticism of corporate Japan's standards of disclosure.

Neither Sony CEO Howard Stringer nor Kazuo Hirai, who was appointed to the company's No. 2 position last month after building up Sony's networked services, have commented publicly.

Sony shares closed down 4.5 percent after falling more than 5 percent at one stage, while the broad market rose 1.6 percent. The stock has now lost more than 8 percent this week.

Some fund managers said the impact might be contained.

"Shares of Sony have already reached the low since the earthquake so I think further downside is limited. Investors who buy Sony are buying on its growth in PlayStation. Gamers usually will not stop playing just because a single incident," said Prudential Financial's Wang.

Sony has struggled for years to control the activities of the hackers, who make up a portion of PlayStation's fanbase.

Earlier this month, games fan website PlayStation Lifestyle

said a group calling itself Anonymous had conducted attacks on Sony websites and online services, motivated by revenge for the company's attempts to clamp down on hacking.

"Sony's strategy in defending its intellectual property was heavy handed and has triggered the "nuclear option" with those that it engaged," IT security expert, Phil Lieberman, CEO and founder of Lieberman Software, said.

INTERNATIONAL SCRUTINY

In the United States, attorneys general, who act as consumer advocates, had begun investigating the matter or reviewing it with staff in several states, including in Iowa, Connecticut, Florida and Massachusetts, according to their offices.

U.S. regulators could get involved as well. The Federal Trade Commission has been known to pursue companies that failed to safeguard consumer data. It could investigate if it determines Sony failed to tell its customers about the company's privacy policies.

A spokeswoman for the agency declined to comment.

Sony reported the breach to the FBI's cybercrimes unit in San Diego, which is investigating, a person familiar with the probe told Reuters. The person was not authorized to discuss the matter publicly.

Late Wednesday, Rothken Law Firm filed a lawsuit on behalf of an individual plaintiff named Kristopher Johns against Sony in the Northern District of California court.

"This suit seeks to redress Sony's failure to adequately provide service to PlayStation consoles and PlayStation Network," the lawyers for the plaintiff said in a court filing.

The plaintiff has requested the court to certify this case as a class action and has also sought unspecified monetary damages, according to the filing.

Sony did not return a call in the United States seeking comment.

Games developers voiced concerns about the ramifications of the data theft.

"What's potentially pretty damaging for people is passwords, because people may use the same password for logging into this network that they use for other things," said Jonathan Chey, a games developer and PlayStation user.

"Security questions (used for recovering passwords)too. My understanding from what they said is that stuff was compromised and was not encrypted."

In Britain, a government watchdog launched an investigation of the incident.

Britain's Information Commissioner's Office said it had contacted Sony and was investigating whether it violated laws that require it to safeguard personal information. The commissioner's investigation would depend in part on whether Sony stored user information in Britain.

Indeed, Sony may come under the toughest scrutiny from non-U.S. regulators, which have stricter consumer privacy laws.

"European countries are going to go crazy and be all over this," said Dan Burk, a professor at the University of California, Irvine School of Law. "They are absolutely obsessed about companies holding personal information."

Renesas Restarts Second Line at Quake-hit Chip Plant

2011-04-30T13:43:50+02:00

s sufficiently inland that it wasn't affected by the subsequent tsunami, but the factory did sustain violent shaking during the quake. The building escaped major structural damage, but the shaking was strong enough to move heavy chip-making machinery that had been bolted to the floor.

Chip manufacturing is a delicate and highly automated process with little room for error, so the resulting misalignment of machinery meant an instant halt to operations. Time is required to reset the machinery and filter dust and dirt particles from the air to restore the "clean room" environment in which chips are made.

On Wednesday, the company showed reporters the 200mm production line and provided more details about the anticipated restart of production.

The 200mm line, which handles the majority of automotive chip production, should start commercial production in mid June. The 300mm line, which is mainly used for cell phone and consumer electronics chips, is scheduled to restart in July. Both are more aggressive targets than originally announced.

However, when production does start it won't be at pre-quake levels. The company expects to begin at about 3,000 wafers per month on each line, which is about a tenth of total capacity.

Renesas said that in May it will provide an estimate on the resumption of full production.

As a stop-gap, Renesas has already moved production of some chips to other factories and shifted some production to a contract chip maker.

Review: Ronan is a force of nature in `Hanna'

2011-04-30T12:42:57+02:00

or at least should have wanted to be — and the thriller that Angelina Jolie's "Salt" only was at times.

Director Joe Wright keeps this story of revenge and survival moving in stylish, pulsating fashion. And of course he has one long, breathtaking tracking shot, which has become a signature for the director of such films as 2007's "Atonement." But at its core, this is actually a coming-of-age drama, and the fact that it features such great performances from such a strong cast makes you care whether these people live or die.

Saoirse Ronan, who was nominated for a supporting-actress Oscar for her portrayal of a sneaky little girl with a secret in "Atonement," reteams with Wright in a role that could not be more different, or more challenging. She stars as the title character, a blonde-haired, blue-eyed, 16-year-old killing machine.

Hanna lives with her father, Erik (Eric Bana), in a rustic cabin in a remote and unforgiving forest just below the Arctic Circle. Blanketed in snow and bathed in bleak, wintry sunlight, the place has the magical and frightening feel of something you'd see in a fairy tale — and the screenplay from Seth Lochhead and David Farr goes back to notion of Hanna as fairy-tale heroine again and again.

Erik teaches Hanna to hunt, fight and speak in various languages. Their hand-to-hand combat scenes are quick, intense, visceral — until one day she tells him, "I'm ready." But who she is and what he's training her for are a tantalizing mystery.

Turns out her father is a former CIA man, and the two have been living in isolation for most of her life. Once he leaves her with plans to reunite with her in Berlin, she must embark on the journey that is her destiny. Hanna is captured by government agents who think she's a shy and sheltered little girl. But, uh ... they're wrong. And this sequence, in which she annihilates everyone in her path, is one of many that are punctuated perfectly by an electronic score from The Chemical Brothers. Wright trusts his actors and the choreography, and lets these fight scenes play out without a lot of unnecessary edits.

Hanna's purpose is to track down veteran intelligence operative Marissa Wiegler, played by Cate Blanchett in a coldly devious way that's almost over the top, but always fun to watch. Blanchett is all honeyed menace as a ruthless Texan who can turn on the charm when she has to; she's also inordinately adept at running in Prada heels. She's looking for Hanna herself — and has a vested interest in keeping her alive.

But before they can meet up, Hanna must travel through Morocco and Spain and finally to Germany. That she does this alone, and with no money, is a fact you will have to suspend disbelief to accept. Along the way she gets some help from a British family on holiday. Olivia Williams is lovely, and a rare source of warmth, as the New-Agey mother, while Jessica Barden steals all her scenes here, as she did in "Tamara Drewe," as the sassy teenager who becomes Hanna's first real friend.

Hanna responds with a mixture of fascination and fear to the normal elements of our daily life — electricity, television, phones — and watching her open up is as satisfying as watching her take down armed men. Ronan's face can be placid or it can flash with emotion, and because she's so centered and confident, it helps make some of the more implausible parts of "Hanna" more acceptable.

The fact that Ronan is this good at this young age is what's truly frightening here.

"Hanna," a Focus Features release, is rated PG-13 for intense sequences of violence and action, some sexual material, and language. Running time: 114 minutes. Three stars out of four.

Rangers' Lewis loses 3rd straight, 6-4 to Jays

2011-04-26T23:37:16+02:00

Colby Lewis is far from resembling the postseason ace he was for the Texas Rangers last October, no matter how good he says he felt.

Lewis gave up three homers in a span of four hitters for all the Toronto runs and walked four in his five innings to lose his third straight start, 6-4 on Monday night to the Blue Jays.

"I felt great," Lewis said. "I felt like tonight was the best stuff I had all year, so I can't get stuck on what happens in one inning, just move forward and take the first four and move on."

The Blue Jays had two outs and Corey Patterson an 0-2 count in a scoreless game in the fifth when he took a big swing at a pitch coming at him about shoulder high. Patterson knocked it out of the park for a three-run homer, calling it a "1 in a 100" shot.

"When you're bitten, that's the type of thing that happens," Rangers manager Ron Washington said. "He tried to go up and out of the zone on him and he still hits a three-run home run. And then the rest of it happened so fast."

Lewis turned and reacted in disbelief when Patterson was rounding the bases.

Jose Bautista hit the very next pitch 405 feet to left for his majors-leading eighth homer. After pitching coach Mike Maddux visited the mound, Adam Lind drew a walk and Juan Rivera hit his first homer of the season for a 6-0 lead.

"Just coming off the year that I had, maybe guys are looking at a lot of footage from last year and kind of sitting on those really good sliders down and away," Lewis said. "For me, I think I got to continue what I was doing the first four innings. I elevated the ball to Patterson and who knew that he would stay on top of a ball that was at his eyes."

Lewis (1-3), who was 3-0 with a 1.71 ERA in four postseason starts last year when the Rangers went to the World Series for the first time, gave up six runs and seven hits while throwing 95 pitches in five innings. The right-hander has a 6.95 ERA this season and is the only Texas pitcher with multiple losses.

Yorvit Torrealba and Nelson Cruz homered for Texas, which was coming off a three-game weekend sweep of Kansas City.

Rangers designated hitter Michael Young extended his hitting streak to 15 games with an RBI double off the right-field wall that made it 6-3 in the sixth. Ian Kinsler also had a run-scoring double in the inning.

Cruz ended a 13-game homerless drought when he led off the ninth with his sixth homer, a liner that just cleared the right-field wall off Blue Jays closer Jon Rauch, who then settled down for his fourth save in four chances this season.

The Blue Jays were coming off a 2-0 loss to Tampa Bay and had gone 15 consecutive innings without a run until their three-homer inning.

"It was good to see Corey Patterson take a pitch that might have been somewhat of a setup pitch on an 0-2 count up and away from him," manager John Farrell said. "To see the six runs on the board was obviously good to see, and we made it hold up."

Kyle Drabek (2-0), a 23-year-old rookie and Texas native, had gotten a no-decision in three consecutive starts that the Blue Jays won after he had pitched into at least the sixth. The right-hander gave up three runs and five hits in six innings against the Rangers.

The Rangers had three double plays and got a run-saving catch from left fielder David Murphy.

Toronto had two on and no out in the fourth when Lind hit a flyball slicing toward the left-field line. Murphy made a running catch with his glove fully extended, and both runners had to scurry back to the bases. Patterson was then thrown out trying to steal third.

Murphy made another nice catch in the seventh on a flyball by Patterson that turned into a double play when the relay through shortstop Elvis Andrus got Yunel Escobar before he could get back to first.

Each of Toronto's first five innings ended on grounders to Andrus, who was back in the lineup after a day off following errors in three consecutive games. Andrus went deep in the hole toward third and made strong throws to get Bautista ending the first and leadoff hitter Escobar ending the third.

Notes: Cruz's last homer was in second game of a doubleheader at Baltimore on April 9. ... Toronto reliever Frank Francisco received his World Series ring from the Rangers before the game. Francisco spent his first six major league seasons with Texas. He made 56 appearances last year before missing the final month of the regular season and all the postseason with a muscle strain. He was traded to Toronto in January for catcher-first baseman Mike Napoli. ... Texas is 6-2 in series openers this season.

Michigan plan would tax retirees up to age 67

2011-04-14T12:53:00+02:00

Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder announced a new plan Tuesday to tax retirees' income up to age 67.

The Republican governor had wanted to tax all retirement income the same as normal income in a bid to raise $900 million to help pay for a business tax cut, but many lawmakers balked after seniors made their displeasure clear. More than a thousand angry seniors protested at the Capitol a month ago, and many had told lawmakers during a recent legislative recess that the taxes would be a hardship.

Snyder has been working to reach a compromise with top Republican lawmakers, and they joined him at his announcement Tuesday. Although neither Senate Majority Leader Randy Richardville or House Speaker Jase Bolger promised the votes were there for the revised plan, both said it was likely the two chambers' Republican majorities would pass the bills.

Michigan currently exempts all Social Security and public pension benefits from income taxes, as well as up to $45,120 a year for a single return and $90,240 on a joint return in private retirement and pension benefits, a cap that increases annually with inflation. Those are the most generous senior tax breaks in the country, costing the state nearly $1 billion a year in lost revenue.

Under Snyder's plan, anyone born before 1946 — those age 67 and over as of Jan. 1, 2012 — would continue to get those same tax breaks. Those born between the beginning of 1946 and the end of 1952 — retirees aged 60 to 66 as of Jan. 1 — would see some of their retirement income exempted from the tax. The ceiling would be $20,000 for single filers and $40,000 for joint filers and include money from public and private pensions, 401(k)s and IRAs.

Social Security payments would not be taxed. When those in the middle group turn 67, they'll qualify for a senior tax exemption of $20,000 for a single filer and $40,000 for joint filers, regardless of whether the money comes from retirement or from a current job.

Anyone born after 1952 would have all retirement income taxed the same as other income, although Social Security would not be taxed. Michigan's income tax rate currently is 4.35 percent and would drop to 4.25 percent on Jan. 1, 2013, under the tentative agreement. When these filers turn 67, they would qualify for the same senior tax exemption of $20,000 for single filers and $40,000 for joint filers.

"It would create a great transitional plan," said Snyder, who has argued the current tax breaks pushed too much of the tax burden onto younger taxpayers.

Snyder's original plan would have caused retirees to pay about $900 million annually in state income taxes on retirement income that's now exempt. His revised plan would raise a third of that. Michigan would still be in the top 10 nationally as far as tax breaks for seniors.

To fill the gap, he's proposing delaying a small income tax cut for a year, to 2013, saving $170 million; coming up with $150 million more in budget cuts, which have not yet been announced; lowering the eligibility level of the homestead tax credit, a savings of $200 million; and gaining $60 million through technical changes to business taxes.

Democratic legislative leaders have opposed taxing retirement income. They issued a sharply worded response called the revised plan "nothing but a bait-and-switch that offers little relief in exchange for yet another tax increase on residents."

"It does nothing to resolve the concerns and frustrations that have brought people to the Capitol by the thousands in recent weeks to voice their opposition to his agenda," said a statement from Senate Democratic Leader Gretchen Whitmer and House Democratic Leader Richard Hammel.

Deja vu: Russia, US at odds over missile defense

2011-02-25T10:28:02+01:00

Talks between the U.S. and Russia over a new anti-ballistic missile system for Europe are stuck on a key point, with Moscow demanding to jointly run the system and the U.S. refusing to yield.

Russia is insisting on shared control of the missile defense program with the U.S. and NATO, which President Barack Obama has flatly opposed because it would essentially give Russia responsibility for protecting NATO from nuclear missile threats. The U.S. is offering Moscow a more limited role.

After years of opposition, Russia agreed last fall at least to talk about cooperating on the anti-ballistic missile plan for Europe, which the U.S. says may one day be needed if Iran develops nuclear weapons. Experts from both sides are scheduled to report on details of the proposal to defense ministers in July.

But Moscow has refused so far to budge from its demand for joint control, and has been keeping up the rhetorical pressure. In late November, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev said if the U.S. and NATO can't reach an agreement on missile defense Russia may deploy new offensive weapons, triggering a new arms race.

Early this month, a Russian deputy foreign minister warned anything less than a "joint system" could lead Russia to withdraw from the recently-ratified New START treaty and to "take other measures, including military-technical measures."

Russia's U.S. Ambassador, Sergey Kislyak, told an industry-sponsored conference here this week that the two sides still haven't come up with a good understanding of how a joint program would work, warning that his country wasn't interested in "cloning" decisions already made by the U.S.

Referring to Russian fears that the missile defense system could target Russian warheads, Kislyak said Moscow is determined to maintain a strategic nuclear balance with the West.

"We want to be reassured that whatever you do there doesn't undermine the stability of deterrence, because deterrence is still with us," Kislyak said Wednesday at the Nuclear Weapons Monitor Nuclear Deterrence Summit in Washington. "We haven't reached a state ... between our two countries that would allow us to abolish it. We would like to see it happen. But that's going to be a long way (off)."

The U.S. and NATO have proposed sharing radar and other early warning data, but Assistant U.S. Secretary of State Rose Gottemoeller, the top U.S. arms control negotiator, told the industry summit that Obama has decided that "NATO will protect NATO, and that's the bottom line as far as we're concerned."

The issue could make or break the deal.

"The hardest question on missile defense in the end is who pulls the trigger," said Steven Pifer of the Brookings Institution, a veteran of U.S. arms control negotiations and former U.S. ambassador to Ukraine. He nevertheless thinks that an agreement can be reached.

The White House had hoped that the New START treaty limiting U.S. and Russian strategic weapons, which took effect Feb. 5, would be a springboard to further arms deals, including deeper cuts in strategic forces as well as reductions in short-range nuclear weapons and non-deployed warheads.

U.S. officials say that new limits on the strategic arsenals of the U.S. and Russia, which between them control 90 percent of the world's deployed nuclear arms, are crucial to efforts to halt the spread of those weapons and promote disarmament worldwide.

Both U.S. and Russian officials have been vague about the details of Russia's proposal for a joint missile defense system, which Medvedev has called a "sectoral" defense.

But independent Russian military expert Alexander Golts said the plan would give Russia responsibility for intercepting missiles headed across its territory toward Europe, while NATO would be responsible for missiles headed across its territory toward Russia.

The apparent aim is to ensure that NATO's interceptors aren't aimed at Russian ICBMs, where they might cripple Russia's ability to respond to a first strike from the West.

Golts said the Kremlin may recognize that the U.S. could never agree to such a scheme but has adopted this position as a bargaining tactic. Russia's bottom line, he said, may be an agreement by the U.S. not to deploy ship-based missile interceptors in the Arctic region, where in theory at least they could shoot down Russian strategic ICBMs headed for U.S. targets.

"If Americans are honest when they say that this missile defense is not aimed at Russian nuclear potential, why not?" Golts said.

Experts say U.S. missile defense systems aren't capable of posing a serious threat to Russia's nuclear missiles, and are intended to protect against future any missile threats from Iran and North Korea. But Russia has said that it is concerned the current systems will develop into a full-scale missile shield.

Russia isn't the only country skeptical of U.S. missile defense goals.

"The Chinese are very, very concerned about missile defenses," said Sharon Squassoni of the Center for Strategic and International Studies, a Washington think tank. "A moderately effective missile defense, which we don't have yet, could really neutralize their nuclear capability and they know that. .We have to do this with the Russians because we're going to have to do this with the Chinese later on."

Despite the impasse, several current and former U.S. officials expressed confidence the U.S. and Russia eventually will find a compromise and strike a deal.

"We believe that we both have systems that can augment each other," Undersecretary of State for Arms Control Ellen Tauscher said this week. She added that the New START treaty had created an environment "where we can work to make sure that NATO is protecting NATO, Russia is protecting Russia."

Corning makes upbeat glass forecast, shares rise

2011-02-04T23:07:34+01:00

NEW YORK (Reuters) – Corning Inc (GLW.N) is looking to boost sales of its glass more than 50 percent by 2014, banking on the popularity of tablets and smartphones, which helped boost its shares 3.5 percent on Friday.

Corning said its display segment, which makes up the bulk of the company's profit and includes glass for touchscreen devices and liquid crystal display televisions, would increase to between $3.4 billion and $3.8 billion by 2014 from $3 billion in 2010. This would create demand for an extra 2 billion square feet of LCD glass in the next three years.

The forecasts were made during an investor presentation in New York.

Corning also estimated tablet computer sales could rise to almost 180 million by 2014 from roughly 20 million, which is in line with projections by research firm DisplaySearch.

Tablet sales would increase Corning's sales of Gorilla Glass, the scratch-resistant thin glass that covers touchscreen devices such as Motorola Mobility Holdings Inc's (MMI.N) Droid phones and Samsung Co Ltd's (005930.KS) Galaxy Tab.

Chief Financial Officer Jim Flaws told investors the specialty materials division, which includes Gorilla Glass, could increase sales to between $1.8 billion and $2 billion in 2014 from $600 million in 2010.

Investors were pleased with the forecasts and how Corning was showing it can ride fast-growing trends such as smartphones profitably.

"With smartphones, there is a lot more emphasis on the display and that opens up a big opportunity for Gorilla Glass," said Kevin Landis, Chief Investment Officer of Firsthand Technology Funds.

Landis said one of his funds' biggest positions was Corning.

TELEVISIONS

But many investors still consider Corning a company largely dependent on the ebb and flow of the LCD market.

Demand for LCD panels has slowed across the industry as U.S. consumers show little appetite for upgrading televisions after buying their first flat-screens sets.

The weaker market has led to price cuts among LCD glass makers. Earlier this week, Japan's Sony Corp's (6758.T) lowered its revenue forecast on slower-than-expected TV sales.

Sony, which makes Bravia TVs, cut its forecast for TV sales in the full year to March 31 to 23 million units, down from its previous forecast of 25 million.

Yet Corning, which competes with LG Display Co Ltd (034220.KS) and Asahi Glass Co Ltd (5201.T) insisted in its presentations on Friday that reports LCD glass demand is maturing were exaggerated. The company said the LCD TV replacement rate should be twice that of traditional sets.

Corning also pointed to growing markets for big screen sets in Asia, which struck a chord with investors.

"Corning is very well positioned on the worldwide trend of the rise in the global consumer class," Landis said, adding that, even if people in the U.S. are not buying new TVs, people in India and other countries will start spending on them.

Corning posted strong quarterly results last month, suggesting it was bucking weaker trends in the LCD market.

Corning said 2014 revenue should increase to $10 billion, up from $6.6 billion in 2010. Analysts were expecting revenue of $7.72 billion in 2011 and $8.3 billion in 2012, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.

The company's shares closed up 80 cents at $23.37 on the New York Stock Exchange on Friday.

Suarez debut delights Liverpool manager Dalglish

2011-02-03T16:39:15+01:00

LIVERPOOL, England (AFP) – Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish promised more to come from Luis Suarez after revealing the Uruguay striker had not even trained with his new side before marking his Premier League debut with a goal.

Suarez ensured Liverpool supporters, dejected by the loss of Fernando Torres to Chelsea on Monday, had a new hero after coming off the substitutes' bench to score in the 2-0 victory over Stoke at Anfield here on Wednesday.

The 22.6 million signing from Dutch side Ajax gave Reds fans disheartened by a season of under-achievement reason to be hopeful after rounding keeper Asmir Begovic and although Andy Wilkinson got a boot to the striker's shot, he could only help it into the net off the post.

Suarez is now in line to start Liverpool's game with Chelsea on Sunday after an eye-catching 27 minute display.

And Dalglish, arguably Liverpool's greatest striker, believes Suarez will get even better as he adapts to the demands of the Premier League.

"He has not even had the opportunity to train with us," said Dalglish.

"There was administration stuff that needed to be sorted out. He got his work permit on Tuesday and was in the squad Wednesday. He has a big smile on his face every day. It is great to score on your debut and he worked hard."

Liverpool head for a reunion with Torres with their confidence sky high. They remain seventh in the Premier League but are just two points behind sixth-placed Sunderland after a third successive league win and a third straight clean sheet.

However, Dalglish refused to get carried away, particularly as Chelsea will kick-off with a nine-point advantage over Liverpool at Stamford Bridge.

"It's an old adage and I'm sure you'll cringe, but we will just take each game that comes along," the former Scotland forward insisted.

"That is all we will do and then at the end of the season we will add our points up and see what we have got.

"We will not get carried away -- there is a lot of hard work ahead. Three clean sheets is always a bonus and always a help.

"It has been a busy week. We have been in the papers more than we have wanted to be, but great credit to the players, they have just gone on with it. We have a group of players who want to compete for everything."

Andy Carroll, who Liverpool signed from Newcastle for 35 million on Monday as a replacement for Torres, witnessed the Stoke victory, but the striker is still several weeks away from making his debut because of a damaged thigh.

But Dalglish believes an in-form Suarez and a fully fit Carroll is an exciting prospect for Liverpool fans.

"Andy is going to be a few weeks before he is fit," he added. "But we bought him for five years so being out for a few weeks wont do us any harm."

Even Stoke manager Tony Pulis was full of praise for Suarez.

"I don't think you need me. . . .it's all about their new lad isn't it?" he said after his side's third defeat in four league games.

"We're quite happy for the lad to claim it (the second goal). If I was Kenny, if he was half a yard near it then it's his goal."

Pain plat aux poivrons

2010-12-02T21:28:00+01:00

Bon j'avoue, j'ai vu cette idée de recette dans Un Dîner Presque Parfait (l'émission où 4 cuisiniers amateurs s'affrontent...) et elle m'a bien plu donc je me suis dit que j'allais la faire. Et j'avoue, c'est très bon, ça permet de donner une petite touche originale et colorée aux pains traditionnels.

Ingrédients :

500g de farine à pain

2 sachets de levure boulangère

300g d'eau

1 cuillère à café de sel

200g de poivrons coupés en petits morceaux

2 gousses d'ail taillées en petits dés

1 peu d'huile d'olive

Etape 1 : Mélangez la farine, la levure, le sel et ajoutez l'eau au fur et à mesure.

Etape 2 : Ajoutez l'ail et les poivrons et continuez de mélanger jusqu'à former une pâte homogène.

Etape 3 : Laissez reposer pendant 45 minutes à température ambiante.

Etape 4 : A la fin des 45 minutes, huilez un plat à tarte et mettez-y la pâte. Laissez reposer pendant 30 minutes.

Etape 5 : Préchauffez le four à 240°C et enfournez votre pain plat pendant 35 minutes.

L'odeur du pain chaud qui sort du four est un délice. Ce pain est parfait pour accompagner des salades ou des poissons.

Enjoy ;)

Comment utiliser le pain rassis ?

2010-11-18T05:33:00+01:00

En comptant la production agricole non récoltée, les pertes durant les différents stockages, le gaspillage chez le consommateur, l'ensemble des pertes dépasse la moitié de la production agricole mondiale. Plus de la moitié des terres agricoles sont exploitées inutilement à cause du gaspillage alimentaire. Pour Lionel Vilain, chargé de mission agriculture pour France Nature Environnement, "il ne faut pas oublier que le gaspillage alimentaire représente autant de pollutions des sols inutiles ou de consommation d'eau pour irriguer ces mêmes terres. Il est certain que des économies très importantes pourraient être réalisées, économies qui permettraient probablement d'éviter d'avoir à doper la production agricole à grands coups de pesticides ou de déforestation, sans compter également les bénéfices économiques et sanitaires pour la population".

En un an, chaque Français jette en moyenne 7kg de produits encore emballés, non entamés. Si on tient compte du pain rassis, des fruits et légumes avariés et des restes cuisinés jetés, on atteint 20kg de déchets par an et par personne.

L'Organisation Mondiale de l'Alimentation (FAO) affirme que 90% des gens n'auraient pas conscience de la quantité de nourriture qu'ils jettent et des ressources nécessaires à sa production et transformation. Ainsi, qui sait que derrière une baguette de pain rassis jetée à la poubelle, c'est une baignoire d'eau que l'on gaspille indirectement, volume d'eau qui a été nécessaire à sa production ?
