Your welcome Nico.Look at the second paragraph of that first article.It looks like Sean Lennon has started Chimera Library publishing to. Besides his own Chimera music label and company.I have no other information right now about this new book that is he going to be publishing next year based on drawing from his Mom.But I will keep everyone updated when more information becomes available or when Sean mentions something about it and we find out more information.

Front Row at Chanel

UNDER THE SEA: Guests arriving at the Chanel show at the Grand Palais were greeted by giant sculptures of algae, whales and seashells, prompting musings about aquatic encounters. “I think if you haven’t nearly drowned in your life, you haven’t lived,” joked Uma Thurman. The actress said she had several movies in the pipeline, including the adaptation of Guy de Maupassant’s classic novel, “Bel Ami,” co-starring Robert Pattinson.

Sean Lennon and his girlfriend Charlotte Kemp Muhl, both dressed in a Victorian style, were so busy posing for photos that their front-row seats had been filled by the time they got there. Eventually, some space was cleared for the pair, in town for a concert Thursday at the Café de la Danse. “It was very ethereal,” Lennon said afterwards. “I think they should have handed out snorkels for everyone though. I was holding my breath the whole time.” His publishing company, Chimera Library, will release its first book next year, “Invisible Flower,” based on drawings by his mother, Yoko Ono, from the Fifties.

Everybody wants to be the Beatles
With numerous active tribute bands on tour, it’s far easier to catch a Beatles show than when the band was around

There are hundreds of Beatles bands out there, performing Beatles music and sporting funny hairdos. It’s like the Beatles walked into a clone-making machine — and then their clones walked in right behind them.Except, of course, they’re not really The Beatles — they just play them onstage as tribute bands.

Beatlemania revived ahead of auction in Argentina

An original drawing by John Lennon is part of the more than 120 lots of Beatles memorabilia that will be auctioned in Argentina by South America's largest collector of the Fab Four.Lennon's sketch starts at a bidding price of 100,000 pesos ($22,535) and features stick figures of Lennon and his wife, Yoko Ono. In a corner of the picture, an inscription reads: "1+1=John+Yoko. 'Tis simple math guys."The trove that will be auctioned on October 13 by Banco Ciudad is owned by Argentine Raul Blisniuk, who entered the Guinness Book of Records in 1998 as South America's greatest collector of Beatles mementos.

An enraged couple have stripped naked to recreate a classic John Lennon and Yoko Ono magazine cover in support of a campaigning lawyer who represented their disabled daughter. Roger Kinsey, 66, and wife Chris, 58, of Ringstead have bared all to highlight Yvonne Hossack’s fight to represent the county’s disabled people, which has cost her Kettering firm £100,000 in the past year.The High Court will today decide whether to re-instate Ms Hossack’s legal aid contract to represent the county’s disabled, which was cancelled after she filled in a form incorrectly.In a statement the couple, who have recreated a 1968 Rolling Stone cover, said: “We were young and full of hope for the future when this magazine cover was released and now, as we reach the autumn of our lives, are saddened that vulnerable people are facing huge cuts in services and may lose this very special champion who dared to challenge cuts on our behalf.”
