Pepsi renouvelle son image Les nouvelles canettes et bouteilles seront bientôt acheminées vers les tablettes partout au Québec. * Alexandre Paillé, Lesaffaires.com * 09:26 Les nouvelles canettes et bouteilles seront bientôt acheminées vers les tablettes partout au Québec. Pepsi Cola s’est donné une toute nouvelle image à l’occasion de ses 75 ans et lance une vaste offensive publicitaire au Québec. La compagnie explique ce changement de stratégie commerciale par son désir de rehausser les ventes de sa division breuvages. «Tout cela s'inscrit dans une stratégie globale visant à rafraîchir une marque que les Québécois adorent depuis 75 ans», déclare Sylvain Charbonneau, vice-président et directeur général du groupe d'embouteillage Pepsi. Outre le nouveau look, Pepsico lance une nouvelle campagne marketing élaborée au Québec. Cette dernière vise à relier le produit à des «esprits positifs aux vues similaires», peut-on lire dans un communiqué. La campagne du géant sera multiplateforme (télévision, panneaux publicitaires, transports en commun, Internet, médias sociaux, magasins et commandites d’événements à l'échelle du Québec). «La stratégie repose sur le principe suivant : une canette ou une bouteille de Pepsi, de par sa nature, est de la joie en bouteille. Lorsqu'on l'ouvre, la joie se répand», affirme M. Charbonneau. Au Québec, la première bouteille de Pepsi est sortie des chaînes de fabrication le 12 juin 1934.

http://www.lapresse.ca/cinema/201411...a-montreal.php Le petit prince: une production de 80 millions à Montréal Publié le 11 novembre 2014 à 05h00 | Mis à jour à 06h14 MARIO CLOUTIER La Presse La production du film d'animation Le petit prince, actuellement en tournage dans les studios de Mikros Image dans le Vieux-Montréal, bénéficie d'un budget à la hauteur de ses ambitions: 80 millions. Ce projet indépendant réunit des créateurs français, américains et québécois. Le petit prince d'Antoine de Saint-Exupéry n'a rien d'un petit succès. Il s'agit du livre le plus traduit - 200 langues - dans le monde après la Bible. Écrit il y a sept décennies, il est encore lu aujourd'hui, autant à l'école qu'à la maison, en Amérique comme en Allemagne et au Japon. L'adapter au cinéma représente un défi. Orson Welles s'y est cassé les dents il y a une éternité avec Disney. Il y a 10 ans, la maison Onyx Films de Paris a entrepris des pourparlers avec la succession Saint-Exupéry. Résultat, une série télé et un superprojet de 80 millions de dollars canadiens. «On est parmi les plus gros films indépendants du moment. L'idée, c'est de rejoindre un très grand public, ceux qui connaissent le livre ou non», lance le producteur Alexis Vonarb. Ni Paramount ni Sony ne sont derrière ce projet, mais tous les grands distributeurs de la planète prennent part à l'aventure, dont Warner aux États-Unis. Le réalisateur, Mark Osborne, a déjà été nommé deux fois aux Oscars. Son film de 2008, Kung Fu Panda, est l'un des 10 plus grands succès de l'histoire du cinéma d'animation avec des recettes dépassant les 650 millions. «Mais l'important, dès le début, a été de protéger le livre», de souligner le réalisateur de 44 ans, qui a quitté les studios DreamWorks de Steven Spielberg pour venir s'installer à Montréal il y a un an par amour du livre. «C'est ma petite amie, devenue mon épouse, qui m'a fait lire Le petit prince à l'université, dit-il. Je connais son pouvoir.» Si bien qu'il a déjà prévendu le film, en tournée avec le producteur Alexis Vonarb, aux distributeurs internationaux. Montréal «C'est un projet très international, mais le tournage à Montréal est déjà couronné de succès», a ajouté le réalisateur devant les journalistes qui ont pu voir hier, dans les studios de la société Mikros Image, quelques images préliminaires du film qui sortira l'an prochain. «Il y a une qualité de recrutement à Montréal qui est géniale. C'est francophone, mais c'est l'Amérique du Nord tout de même», de renchérir Alexis Vonarb. Autre rareté, le long métrage d'animation fait appel à deux techniques différentes maîtrisées par les équipes montréalaises, soit l'animation 3D par ordinateur et le stop-motion (ou animation image par image) à l'ancienne. Les voix des personnages dans la version anglaise comprennent celles de Jeff Bridges, James Franco, Rachel McAdams, Ricky Gervais et Benicio del Toro. Marion Cotillard, quant à elle, jouera la rose, en anglais et en français. Et le petit prince? C'est le fils du cinéaste, Riley Osborne, qui interprète le personnage aimé des petits et des grands depuis 70 ans. Prochaine étape, la bande-annonce sortira le 17 décembre.

Avec tout les chantiers présents et ceux passé des dernières année, j'ai pensé que l'on pourrait reprendre de vieilles photos et d'essayer de s'amuser un peu en identifiant quel bâtiment est en construction. Règlement: Photo de bâtiment en construction dans la région de Montréal seulement ( y compris Laval et la Rive-Sud) Bâtiment de plus de 3 étages ( pas de duplex Samcon sur le plateau par exemple) ou infrastructure d'importance . Le bâtiment peut être en construction présentement ou complété. Le premier qui identifie le projet re-poste une photo. Image 1:

How to extract images from PDF files without using copy and paste Posted Aug 5th 2008 6:00PM by Brad Linder Filed under: Utilities, Windows, Freeware PDF Image Extract PDF Image Extract is a free Windows utility that does exactly what the name suggests: it extracts images from PDF files. Sure, you could save pictures one at a time the old fashioned way by hitting print screen and pasting the image into an editor or using a screen capture program. But PDF Image Extract saves you a lot of time if you want to save multiple images because it will save every single image in a PDF file for you. In fact, you can create batch jobs to save images from multiple documents. The only down side? I'm not kidding when I say PDF Image Extract saves every image. You'll likely wind up with a folder containing hundreds of images, only a few of which are the ones you were looking for. That's because the program will save all sorts of segments of the original PDF as image files, including the background. http://somepdf.com/downloads.html

Gillette to phase Tiger Woods out of ads New York — Associated Press Published on Saturday, Dec. 12, 2009 11:57AM EST Last updated on Saturday, Dec. 12, 2009 4:05PM EST New York — Associated Press Published on Saturday, Dec. 12, 2009 11:57AM EST Last updated on Saturday, Dec. 12, 2009 4:05PM EST One of Tiger Woods’ major sponsors will phase the world’s most valuable athlete out of its advertisements while he takes time off to repair his personal life. Gillette’s announcement Saturday marks the first major sponsor of the superstar athlete and corporate pitchman to distance itself from Woods. “As Tiger takes a break from the public eye, we will support his desire for privacy by limiting his role in our marketing programs,” said Gillette, a division of Procter & Gamble. Other sponsors are mulling their options and trying to gauge the fallout from the man who has become the face of golf, as he drops off the circuit for an unspecified period. AT&T said it is evaluating its relationship with the golfer. Representatives from Accenture won’t say what its plans are regarding Woods, whom the consulting firm has used to personify its claimed attributes of integrity and high performance. “I think you will see the handful or so of companies that he has relationships with doing some real soul searching and making some probably, for them, difficult decisions in the next few days,” said Larry L. Smith, president of the Institute for Crisis Management, in Louisville, Ky. Late Friday, Woods announced an indefinite leave from golf and public life to try to rescue his marriage after a two weeks of intense coverage of his infidelity sullied his carefully cultivated good guy image. The decision and contrite tone of his statement was seen by marketing experts as a smart step to repairing his public image. His previous brief and vague statements on the matter were criticized as insufficient to quell the intense scrutiny and to lessen the damage from more than a handful of women who claim to have had affairs with him. “It’s just like your most beautiful fashion brand is being trashed,” said John Sweeney, director of sports communication at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill’s School of Journalism and Mass Communication. “I don’t expect Tiger to be the gold standard anymore, but he’s not going out of business ... He’s too big and too talented to be fired, but he will have significant declines from what he was.” Woods, 33, spent 13 years burnishing a pristine personal brand. His good looks and multiracial heritage gave him broad appeal. His domination of the game and fist-pumping flair for the dramatic established his tournament appearances as must-see TV. His work ethic is admirable. Marketers were drawn to his image as a clean-cut family man who mourned the death of the father who taught him the game, doted on his mother and married a former Swedish model with whom he has two young children. Woods is the pitchman for brands ranging from AT&T to Accenture to Nike. His array of endorsements helped him become the first sports star to earn $1 billion. Michael Jordan, Woods’ closest contemporary, is a distant second. Jordan has accumulated about $800 million during an NBA career that spanned nearly 20 years, according to Forbes. Nike, which built its $650-million golf business around Woods, said late Friday it supports his decision. Gatorade, a unit of PepsiCo Inc., said previously it supports Woods and said Saturday it has no updated comment. Gillette’s decision includes phasing out Woods from its television and print advertising, and from public appearances and other efforts linking the two entities together, Gillette spokesman Damon Jones said. “This is supporting his desire to step out of the public eye and we’re going to support him by helping him to take a lower profile,” he said. Gillette, which operates from Boston while parent P&G is based in Cincinnati, has had a contract with Woods since 2007. Jones declined to provide further details, including length and value, of the contract. Woods hasn’t been seen in a prime-time television commercial since a Gillette spot on Nov. 29, according to research firm Nielsen Co. Jones said that was because golf is currently off-season, so the company is promoting new products like Gillette Fusion MVP with football and baseball stars instead, because those seasons are more current. As any ads featuring Woods expire, they will not be renewed. Jones said that did not mean the company was severing its ties with Woods. There had been no upcoming scheduled public appearances for Woods, he said. He declined to comment on when the company would resume including Woods in its marketing, and would not say whether that would be linked with the timing of Woods comeback, when and if he decides to resume playing golf.

L’espace loué est devenu partiellement inutilisé, et on y vend des marchandises de moyenne à bas de gamme qui sont fréquemment en solde et qui projettent une image d’abandon et de détresse qui affecte l’image et la réputation du centre commercial, lit-on dans une poursuite déposée cette semaine en Cour supérieure par le Carrefour Laval contre Les Ailes de la Mode. Le Journal de Montréal précise qu'on ne fait pas qu’y réclamer l’éviction des Ailes, on exige aussi le paiement du loyer sur le bail venant à échéance en 2011, soit 3,5 M$. L’entreprise fondée en 1993 par Paul Delage-Roberge projetait, jusqu’à sa vente en août 2005, une image de raffinement. C’est dans cette optique que le Carrefour Laval avait loué en 1996 un local de près de 60 000 pieds carré aux Ailes. «Le locataire exploitera de façon active et continue et avec soin son entreprise dans la totalité des lieux d’une façon moderne, digne, et efficace, de façon compatible avec le mode d’exploitation des centres commerciaux de première qualité», stipule le bail venant à échéance en 2011. Réalité plutôt méconnue et mise au jour par cette poursuite, c’est le pourcentage des ventes des commerces que touchent les centres commerciaux, en plus de leur loyer. Carrefour Laval allègue que les ventes des Ailes ont chuté de 65% entre les années 2001-2002 et 2005-2006. Or, Les Ailes doivent verser 2 ou 4% de leurs ventes annuelles, selon leurs performances, au Carrefour. «Les Ailes se sont comportées de façon à ce que maintenant, il leur devient impossible de générer des profits suffisants pour payer le pourcentage dû au Carrefour Laval», accuse la poursuite.

Admin, For the past couple months, I've only been able to upload pictures via the "basic uploader". Meaning I can only upload one picture at a time. At first I thought it was a linux/flash issue but I have that problem on Windows as well. Also it won't accept PNG images.

Corruption, petty language fights don’t help Montreal’s “reputation deficit” Charles Lapointe says squabbles over a few English words on menus or in bathrooms are “ridiculous” and are “creating a troubling image of Montreal abroad.” Photograph by: Tourisme Montreal , . Charles Lapointe, president of Tourism Montreal, was uncharacteristically frank this week when he said that petty battles over language are undermining the city’s image. Perhaps it’s because he’s retiring in June that Lapointe was willing to speak out. Squabbles over a few English words on menus or in bathrooms are “ridiculous” and are “creating a troubling image of Montreal abroad,” he said. Lapointe’s remarks are timely because we’ve just been reminded that reputation is vital to a city’s financial health. The Global Financial Centres Index, a measure of how cities rank around the world as places to conduct banking, insurance, investment management and other financial transactions, has just been updated. Montreal ranked 16th in the survey, gaining one spot and finishing behind Toronto and Vancouver, but ranking just ahead of Calgary. It seems Montreal suffers from “a reputation deficit,” according to the survey’s author, Mark Yeandle of London-based Z/Yen Group, who was in town to release the latest findings. He wasn’t referring to language battles, student strikes, crumbling roads or rampant municipal corruption. Rather, he meant that the city’s financial strengths in such areas as investment management and derivatives trading are not well known and need to be promoted. Still, it’s clear that image is everything when it comes to a survey like this and it may not be long before Montreal’s troubles catch up to it. The index doesn’t attempt to measure the dollar value of financial business conducted in each city. Instead, it asks nearly 2,400 financial-services professionals to rate cities on 96 criteria. These are grouped into five main areas: the business environment, infrastructure, market access, availability of talent and cost competitiveness. No surprise that London, New York and Hong Kong hold the top three spots or that Singapore, Zurich and Tokyo follow just behind. North American cities ranking ahead of Montreal are Boston (8), Chicago (11), Toronto (12), San Francisco (13), Washington D.C. (14) and Vancouver (15). Montreal can take some encouragement from the index: it ranks ahead of such cities as Paris and Shanghai. But there are warning signs, too. Those responding to the survey placed a lot of value on such issues as the rule of law and absence of corruption. If Montreal can’t clean up its act in this regard, it may well lose business. The more we learn about the complicity between corrupt municipal officials and big local companies hungry for contracts, the less inviting this city looks as a place to do business. Reputation, the study concludes, is “very important” and “predictability is key.” Montreal, of course, isn’t the only place where there’s concern about such issues. Even top-ranked London has looked bad lately. One banker based in London commented: “London continues to receive bad news — LIBOR (the interest-rate fixing scandal), capping of bonuses, corruption — when will it end and what does it take for London to lose its top spot?” Another area of concern in the survey is taxation. “Simplicity and stability are required,” notes the study. You could take that as a reminder to the Parti Québécois government that its income-tax increases on high-income Quebecers risk making Montreal a less attractive destination for mobile financial jobs. What you have to remember is that the financial industry is a moving target; it’s evolving all the time as new centres, products and technologies emerge. When asked which centres are likely to become more significant down the road, respondents identified Singapore, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Seoul and Toronto as their top five picks for future growth. Clearly, Asia is on the move and Latin American cities are rising, too. It’s an ultracompetitive world and Montreal risks being left behind if it can’t develop its strengths. That’s where we get back to language. English does happen to be the language of international banking and finance; let’s hope that petty bureaucrats and politicians don’t get in the way of anyone wanting to expand here. The city’s French fact is already a great attraction, making Montreal a bridge between North America and Europe. Let’s not forget the importance of the other language in any growth strategy.

Cette camera deviens une serieuse candidate pour etre ma prochaine caméra si Canon ne sorta pas la 5D v2. ------------------------------------------------------ The world’s fastest D-SLR – remastered EOS-1D Mark III: The new benchmark Canon today sets new standards for professional photography with the launch of the EOS-1D Mark III. Delivering 10 frames per second at 10.1 Megapixels for a maximum burst of 110 Large JPEG images (30 in RAW), the EOS-1D Mark III replaces the EOS-1D Mark II N as the world’s fastest digital SLR. Dual “DIGIC III” processors drive the camera’s high speed, high resolution performance, and bring 14-bit image processing to the EOS series for the first time. A ground-up redesign introduces a host of new features and advancements to Canon’s flagship EOS-1 series, including a 3.0” LCD with Live View mode, EOS Integrated Cleaning System, new auto focus system with 19 cross-type sensors, and 63-zone exposure metering. The camera’s APS-H size (28.1 x 18.7 mm) CMOS sensor enables a wider 100-3200 ISO range as standard, expandable to L:50 and H:6400. “The EOS-1D Mark III represents a complete reappraisal of everything Canon has learned over the past 20 years of EOS development,” said Tsunemasa Ohara, Senior General Manager, Camera Development Center, Canon Inc. “In building this camera, we started with a blank canvas. Every facet of the photographic process has been refined, every design decision re-evaluated to bring us to this point: a camera that combines familiar EOS ergonomics with a vastly enhanced specification. Our engineers are overjoyed with the result.” Key features 10.1 Megapixel APS-H CMOS sensor 10 fps continuous shooting for up to 110 frames Dual “DIGIC III” processors New auto focus system with 19 cross type sensors EOS Integrated Cleaning System ISO 3200 (expandable to H:6400) 3.0” LCD with Live View mode Wider, brighter viewfinder Picture Style1 The choice of professionals The EOS-1D line has enjoyed massive popularity among the world’s leading sports, reportage and wildlife photographers, with international wire agencies AFP, Getty and Reuters choosing Canon for their photographers. “The people at Canon are great to work with because they listen to photographers. It’s their attention to detail and the pace of innovation that makes EOS the system of choice,” explained Stephen Munday, Director of Operations – Editorial, Getty Images. Exceptional image quality Canon’s dual “DIGIC III” processors deliver unprecedented levels of speed, responsiveness and image quality. Ready to shoot within 0.2 seconds of power on, the EOS-1D Mark III can capture and process over 100 Megapixels of image data per second, rapidly clearing the image buffer to allow up to 110 frames in one burst. Images are processed at 14 bits for a total colour depth of up to 16,384 tones per pixel, compared to 4,096 tones from 12 bit images. The third generation CMOS sensor incorporates a new pixel design that works together with on-chip noise reduction circuitry to ensure high image quality at ISO 3200. The option to expand to H:6400 will benefit professionals working in news and sports locations where the use of flash is not permitted or desired. Greater precision, more control Canon has redesigned its auto focus system to include 19 cross-type sensors with sensitivity up to f/2.8, spread out across the AF area to better accommodate off-centre subjects. An additional 26 AF assist points are used to aid AF tracking for improved accuracy. Responding to professional photographer requests, a dedicated AF button on the back of the camera allows users to instantly switch auto focus on or off while keeping their eye on the viewfinder. The viewfinder is now brighter and offers a wider angle of view. The camera’s new 63-zone metering system gives photographers greater level of control over exposure. New LCD with Live View The bright 3.0” LCD monitor provides 230K pixels resolution for precise framing and reviewing of shots. New to EOS, Live View mode enables photographers to frame without having to look through the viewfinder – particularly useful for shooting from awkward positions. The menu system on the EOS-1D Mark III has been completely redesigned to take advantage of the LCD size – menus are easier to read and use. A choice of 57 custom functions gives photographers more options for customising camera settings to their daily working requirements. A new My Menu option allows photographers to store frequently used settings on a separate menu for faster access. Settings for new accessories such as the Speedlite 580EX II and Wireless File Transmitter WFT-E2 – also released today – can be controlled directly from the LCD. Total reliability The EOS-1D Mark III incorporates a range of practical enhancements for the working photographer. Shutter durability has been increased by 50% to 300,000 cycles. The body is protected by a magnesium alloy casing with dust and moisture resistant seals. The EOS Integrated Cleaning System provides further reliability by reducing sensor dust, minimising the need for manual cleaning on assignment. To avoid corruption of captured images, a warning appears on the LCD and an alarm sounds if the memory card door is opened while images are still being written. Interfaces include video out (for display in both NTSC and PAL formats) and USB 2.0. Compatibility and accessories Canon is marking today’s launch with the release of several additions to the professional EOS system: EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM – A fast, ultra wide-angle zoom lens delivering exceptional image quality throughout the aperture range. Speedlite 580EX II – An update of the Speedlite 580EX that offers weather resistance when attached to the EOS-1D Mark III. Wireless File Transmitter WFT-E2 – Smaller, lighter and more versatile than its predecessor, the WFT-E2 speeds up workflows by allowing photographers to transmit images wirelessly during the shoot. Original Data Security Kit OSK-E3 – Verifies the authenticity of images taken with the camera and supports image encryption for additional security. Software The EOS-1D Mark III is supplied with a comprehensive software suite to help the photographer’s workflow. This includes Digital Photo Professional (DPP), a powerful RAW converter that provides complete RAW image processing control. DPP integrates with cameras features such as the Dust Delete Data and Picture Style. The camera also comes with EOS Utility, ImageBrowser/Zoom Browser and Photostitch.
