Toujours prompts à surfer sur la vague porteuse des modes du moment, les éditeurs ne rechignent pas à proposer des versions papier des blogs les plus en vue. En témoigne la nouvelle collection Tapas, chez Delcourt, dans laquelle débarque ce troisième opus des introspections sarcastiques et nombrilistes de Margaux Motin. La force de l’autobiographie, c’est de parler des autres à travers soi, de présenter son intériorité tel un miroir grossissant face à la propre intimité du lecteur, d’exprimer l’universelle part de l’individu… Malheureusement, dans le cas de cette Tectonique des plaques, c’est plutôt une loupe qui est braquée sur l’auteure. Le spectateur se transforme alors en apprenti entomologiste découvrant les mille et une péripéties palpitantes de la condition de la trentenaire émancipée en milieu urbain. Avec des préoccupations considérables allant de « quelle tenue mettre ce matin » à « quelle tenue mettre ce soir », en passant par les affres [...] - Lire la suite sur bdgest.com

The average American family throws away 40% of the food it purchases, and similar trends exist in most other developed countries. For example, an estimated 32% of bread purchased in the UK ends up in the trash. One of the major reasons bread goes uneaten is mold growth, which tends to begin within a week and a half of a loaf's production. To curb food waste, one company has developed a specialized microwave that prevents mold growth on food for extended periods of time. Developers say that the device can keep bread mold-free for two months but acknowledge that convincing consumers to eat such long-lasting bread might pose a challenge.

Five female Pakistani polio vaccination workers were killed in a series of coordinated attacks on Tuesday, during a three-day nationwide polio immunization campaign. Pakistan's vaccination workers have faced increasing distrust, hostility, and danger since 2005, when Muslim cleric Maulana Fazlullah, now a Taliban leader, began broadcasting accusations that polio immunization campaigns were actually an American conspiracy to sterilize Muslim children. Attacks on health workers and unofficial regional bans on vaccination have already had widespread impact on eradication efforts in the region. Polio incidence in Pakistan is on the rise, with nearly 200 cases reported in 2011.
