David Ake
(Posi-Tone)
Although many fans think of straightahead jazz and swing-oriented tunes when they see the Posi-Tone logo, the excellent new album by pianist David Ake demonstrates that the label also gives improvisational artists the freedom to travel wherever the muse carries them.
Ake's Humanities documents 12 adventurous, improv-fueled journeys taken by a stellar band that includes Ralph Alessi (trumpet), Ben Monder (electric guitar), Drew Gress (acoustic bass) and Mark Ferber (drums). An educator and musicologist at the University of Miami's Frost School of Music, Ake composed all the music on the album, with the exception of an intriguing arrangement of the Grateful Dead tune "Ripple." Ake allows his collaborators to take flight; at various points on a track like "Hoofer," he, Alessi and Ferber might craft individual lines that intertwine, yet occasionally contrast with one another to create a satisfying tension—but the track still feels cohesive. Monder shows that he can add subtle coloration to a track, or he can explode like a thunderstorm, as he does with the squall on "Groundwork."
Throughout the disc, Alessi displays the wide variety in his sonic palette, delivering lines that are fiery, elegant and unpredictable. The band members on this project clearly enjoyed their individual freedom, but as a listener, one can always sense the sturdy architecture within the composition.

Fauci Warns Senators Reopening Too Soon May Cause "Suffering and Death That Could Be Avoided"
During Tuesday's Senate hearing, Dr. Anthony Fauci warned against opening the country back up too soon.
At the hearing, Fauci said states that reopen too early without heeding federal guidelines could risk uncontrollable outbreaks that lead to "suffering and death that could be avoided," and undermine economic recovery.
This is a direct contrast to what President Trump has been saying, which implies that America is starting to come out on the other side of the virus, despite the U.S. hitting 80,000 deaths.
Dr. Fauci Testifies
Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and a key member of the coronavirus task force, testified in a highly anticipated Senate hearing on Tuesday.
The hearing, dubbed "Covid-19: Safely Getting Back to Work and Back to School," was held by the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee. It marked the first time the leading expert was publicly questioned by Congress since President Donald Trump declared a national emergency two months ago.
In addition to Dr. Fauci, senators also heard testimony from Dr. Robert Redfield, the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Dr. Stephen Hahn, the Food and Drug Administration commissioner, and Admiral Brett Giroir, the assistant secretary for health at the Department of Health and Human Services.
Much of the focus of the hearing, especially the questions directed to Dr. Fauci, were centered around the widespread reopening efforts states have started to undertake.
In an email to the New York Times the night before the hearing, Dr. Fauci said that the message he wished to convey to the committee "is the danger of trying to open the country prematurely."
"If we skip over the checkpoints in the guidelines to 'Open America Again,' then we risk the danger of multiple outbreaks throughout the country," he wrote. "This will not only result in needless suffering and death, but would actually set us back on our quest to return to normal."
Dr. Fauci Doubles Down
Dr. Fauci hit on that point during the hearing when asked what he thinks will happen if states start to open up too soon.
"My concern is that if states or cities or regions their attempt, understandable, to get back to some form of normality, disregard to a greater sense of degree the checkpoints that we put in our guidelines about when it is safe to proceed in pulling back on mitigation," he said.
"Because I feel if that occurs, there is a real risk that you will trigger an outbreak that you may not be able to control," he continued. "Which in fact, paradoxically will set you back, not only leading to some suffering and death that could be avoided, but could even set you back on the road to trying to get economic recovery. So you would almost turn the clock back rather than going forward."
"When you are in the process of opening up and pulling back on mitigation, you really must have in place the capability of responding when you do that the inevitable uptick of cases. That will absolutely occur," Dr. Fauci reiterated later in the hearing.
"It's how we deal with it, and how successful we are in how we put the clamps on it, that will prevent us from getting the kind of rebound that not only from the standpoint of illness and death would be something that's unacceptable. But it will set us back in our progress towards reopening the country."
Dr. Fauci also pushed back against a number of claims President Trump has made in recent weeks. When asked if he thought the U.S. had the virus under control, as Trump has indicated, he responded, "If you think that we have it completely under control, we don't."
"If you look at the dynamics of the outbreak, we are seeing a diminution of hospitalizations and infections in some places—such as in New York City, which has plateaued and is starting to come down, New Orleans—but in other parts of the country, we are seeing spikes."
Dr. Fauci said the US does not have "total control" of the coronavirus pandemic yet.
"If you think that we have it completely under control, we don't," he told Sen. Elizabeth Warren in the Senate hearing on the White House's response to the crisis. https://t.co/CaSFWqJw97 pic.twitter.com/3SZ91Wwbqg

"We run the risk of having a resurgence," he added. "I would hope by that point in time in the fall that we have more than enough to respond adequately, but if we don't, there will be problems."
The doctor additionally addressed Trump's claims that the coronavirus will go away without a vaccine.
"That is just not going to happen," he said. "It's a highly transmissible virus. It is likely there will be virus somewhere on this planet that will likely get back to us."
The points made by Dr.Fauci were also echoed and supported by the other experts, like CDC director Dr. Redfield, who told the Senators "we're not out of the woods yet."
Contradicting Trump's Remarks
Many of the remarks made by Dr. Fauci and the other health experts appeared to directly contract remarks made by President Trump over the last few weeks.
Two weeks ago when the federal social distancing guidelines expired, Trump announced he would not extend them.
"We think we really have crossed a big boundary, and much better days are ahead," he said. "And I often say I see the light at the end of the tunnel, very strongly."
Since then, the president has generally spoken about the virus as though it has largely been handled, even as the U.S. has now hit 80,000 recorded deaths. But that has not stopped Trump from claiming victory.
"We have met the moment and we have prevailed," he boldly declared while speaking from the Rose Garden Monday.

When asked later, Trump said that he meant the country had prevailed on increasing access to testing, but even that is a questionable claim.
It is true that the U.S. has nearly doubled daily testing from 150,000 tests per day from a month ago to 300,000 per day recently, but that number is still far under the five million daily target Trump himself set last month.
Despite falling short of this self-proclaimed goal, Trump has repeatedly bragged about U.S. testing capabilities.
"We have a great testing capacity now," he said Monday. "If somebody wants to be tested right now, they'll be able to be tested."
However, it is simply not true that everyone has access to testing. The U.S. only has the capacity to test everyone who is symptomatic or has been in contact with someone that tested positive.
Trump also mischaracterized the number of new cases in the U.S., claiming that they are "way down from what they were two weeks ago. The numbers are really coming down very substantially. This weekend was one of the lowest we've had."
"The numbers are coming down very rapidly all throughout the country" — Trump lies about coronavirus case numbers and casts doubt upon models projecting that more than 100,000 Americans could be dead by end of the summer pic.twitter.com/HvWqfOk3XT
— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) May 11, 2020
While the number of new cases reported across the country this weekend was 40,000, which is less than the 60,000 reported two weeks ago, that is still not good.
It is also not a "universal" trend, as Trump said. According to reports, new cases are actually increasing in nine states and basically unchanged in more than two dozen others.
Those facts and the remarks made by Dr. Fauci are highly relevant as more and more states begin to reopen.
The majority of states have started to implement at least a partial reopening, but according to reports, more than half of those states do not meet the Trump administration's guidelines for doing so, which rely on increased testing capabilities and a downward trajectory of positive cases.
Many of those states have not increased their testing capabilities, and according to the Times: "In more than half of states easing restrictions last week, case counts were trending upward, the proportion of positive test results was rising, or both."

Stomp was created in Brighton, U.K., in the summer of 1991. It was the result of a 10 year collaboration between its creators, Steve McNicholas and Luke Cresswell. Stomp uses a variety of everyday percussion instruments in their shows [1]
They first worked together in 1981, as members of the street band Pookiesnackenburger and the theatre group Cliff Hanger. Together, these groups presented a series of street comedy musicals at the Edinburgh Festival throughout the early '80s. After two albums, a UK TV series and extensive touring throughout Europe, Pookiesnackenburger also produced the "Bins" commercial for Heineken lager. The piece was originally written and choreographed by Cresswell as part of the band's stage show.
McNicholas created an eight-minute percussive movie for Bette Midler's HBO special, "Mondo Beyondo".
Between 1987 and 1990, Cresswell directed staged four large-scale outdoor events, including "Beat the Clyde". which involved floating a drum orchestra on a pontoon in the center of Glasgow; the largest of these events, the "Heineken Hove Lagoon Show", involved a 120 piece drum orchestra featuring the Brighton Festival Chorus and a full orchestral string section.
In the summer of 1991, Cresswell and McNicholas produced, financed and directed the original Stomp show, previewing at London's Bloomsbury Theatre and premiering at the Assembly Rooms in Edinburgh, where it became the Guardian's "Critic's Choice" and won the Daily Express's "Best of the Fringe" award. Originally a seven-piece (with Luke Cresswell, Theseus Gerard, Fraser Morrison, Carl Smith, Nick Dwyer, David Olrod and Sarah Eddy), Stomp grew to be an eight person outfit with the addition of Fiona Wilkes in the fall of '91.
Between 1991 and 1994, the original cast of Stomp played to capacity audiences around the world. The touring culminated in a season at Sadler's Wells Theatre in London in January 1994, where Stomp received an Olivier nomination for the "Best Entertainment Award" and won "Best Choreography Award in a West End show".
An extended version of Stomp, involving up to 30 cast members, was originally created for the Brighton Festival UK and was subsequently presented in Melbourne, Australia. It was most recently seen in September 1995 in an open air production at the Acropolis in Athens and at the Royal Festival Hall in London.
Stomp began its run at the Orpheum Theatre in New York in February 1994 winning an Obie Award and a Drama Desk Award for Most Unique Theatre Experience. By the summer of 1994, the first American cast was in place at the Orpheum, freeing the original cast for a tour of North America and Japan.
[edit] 1995-2000
In the summer of 1995, two more American productions were created for the sole purpose of US touring which continues to this day. US casts have also debuted Stomp in Chile, Brazil and Korea. Meanwhile, a fifth Stomp company, also touring from the UK, was formed in 1997 and has consistently toured the world ever since. This company presented Stomp for the first time in Scandinavia and South Africa and has been a regular visitor to Germany, The Netherlands and France. Another Stomp production opened in San Francisco in May 2000, running for two and a half years.
The original cast of Stomp have recorded music for the Tank Girl movie soundtrack and appeared on the Quincy Jones album Q's Jook Joint. A soundtrack recorded by Cresswell and McNicholas for the Showtime Movie Riot was released in the Spring of 1997.
Stomp has also been featured in a number of commercials, including Coca-Cola's "Ice Pick", numerous spots for Target stores in the US, Toyota in Japan, and SEAT in Europe.
Stomp also created the "Mr. Frears' Ears" series of short films created for Nickelodeon. "Brooms", a 15-minute short film based on the opening routine, was nominated for an Academy Award. This Stomp-oriented film was also selected for screening at the Sundance Festival and for competition at the Cannes Film Festival.
Stomp made an appearance at the Academy Awards in March 1996, with a piece involving the live synchronization of classic film clips and on-stage action, featuring 20 performers from all five productions.
In the summer of 1997, Cresswell and McNicholas created and directed Stomp Out Loud, a 45 minute television special for HBO, which combined stage material with new pieces created for TV. It was in the USA in December 1997 and subsequently received four Emmy Award nominations, for direction, sound mixing, multi-camera editing, and art direction. The Stomp Out Loud DVD was released in 1998. Another blend of live action and film footage was created for the Emmy awards, in which Stomp performed with Spike Jones.
Stomp performed at the Lincoln Memorial at President Clinton's Millennium celebrations. During 2000, a Sesame Street special "Let's Make Music", a collaboration between Stomp and the Muppets, was released on TV and video in North America.667«
Cresswell and McNicholas began production of their IMAX movie, Pulse: A Stomp Odyssey, in Brazil during Carnaval 2000 and completed it in the summer of 2002. Pulse features an international cast, with performances from Kodo, Timbalada and Eva Yerbabuena. It was released in the fall of 2002 and won two awards at La Geode's film festival in Paris the following year. In 2004 it received the ultimate IMAX Award for Best Film at the GSTA in Montreal. Pulse is still playing in IMAX theatres worldwide.
In September 2002, Stomp entered London's West End at the Vaudeville Theatre, and later that year performed as part of the Royal Variety Show for the second time. Stomp is now in its fifth year in London.
In 2003, a Dolby Digital trailer featuring Stomp performances debuted in cinemas worldwide, and the following year an Emmy nominated sequence was created for ABC Sports coverage of the World Figure Skating Championships.
In 2006, Stomp's New York production passed its 5000th performance mark. In the same year, Cresswell and McNicholas directed a public service announcement for television called "Stomp Out Litter", which featured the cast "sweeping up" at iconic locations in the five boroughs. They also began filming an IMAX 3D movie about South Africa's Sardine run, released in early 2008.
In addition, they were commissioned to create and produce yes Pandemonium: the Lost and Found Orchestra, which takes the ideas behind Stomp to a symphonic level, in celebration of 40 years of the Brighton Festival. The LFO subsequently performed at the Sydney Opera House as part of the Sydney Festival early in 2007 and at the Royal Festival Hall in London. The show was reworked and renamed for a US tour in 2010: Pandemonium: the Lost and Found Orchestra.
In 2007, Stomp Out Loud opened in Las Vegas at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino with an expanded cast and performed inside a new $28 million theater specifically created for the production.
It's normally performed in carnivals.
In August 2012, Stomp contributed to the musical segment of the 2012 Summer Olympics closing ceremony in London.

Q: Difference between , and ; on an instruction block I have a simple question. Imagine I have the following code:
xmlHttp.open("POST", uri, !0),
xmlHttp.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/json;charset=UTF-8"),
xmlHttp.send(JSON.stringify(data))

These are comma separated instructions.
What is the biggest difference between using ; instead of ,? Is it just to make sure all instructions are ran even if one of them gives an error or something?

How Much Money People Have Made—or Lost—Selling Farts, Blog Posts, and Cat Tweets as NFTs
By Aaron Mak
March 23, 202111:12 AM
Making an NFT can cost a lot in Ethereum. Ina Fassbender/AFP via Getty Images
Non-fungible tokens, or NFTs, are having their $69 million moment as a way to create value out of what would traditionally be considered valueless. A form of cryptocurrency that acts as a digital certificate of ownership that can be bought and sold, NFTs are a useful tool for selling things that have no physical presence—whether it's a collage of digital artworks like the one Beeple sold at Christie's, or a recording of farts. Now that everyone has seen what they can do, there's an a NFT gold rush.
Because pretty much anything can be an NFT and making one usually only takes a few easy steps, everyone from professional studio artists to gonzo journalists to everyday hustlers trying to make a buck in crypto are trying their hands at selling a token. Generally, NFT creators can sell their works to their highest bidder on virtual marketplaces like Rarible or Opensea. Given the wildly varying fees associated with NFTs, though, some are finding that actually making a profit isn't as straightforward as it might seem.
The process of creating (or "minting" as it's known in crypto-speak) and then selling an NFT can cost anywhere from less than a dollar to more than $1,000. In a piece for OneZero, Allen Gannett walked readers through how he paid $1,300 to make four NFTs featuring an image of famous paintings that he'd downloaded for free from the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Gannett put the works up on Rarible and received a $76 bid for one of them—a long way from a profit, and he still had to pay another $88 fee to accept it. The other three don't appear to have sold, meaning Gannett lost over $1,000.
While Rarible pushes up-front fees on sellers, other platforms simply take a cut of the sale proceeds. George Mason University economics professors Alex Tabarrok and Tyler Cowen conducted a similar experiment on their blog Marginal Revolution, creating an NFT of their first blog post on the site, which they sold on Mintable. They had to pay 2.5 percent of the final $2,300 bidding price. "That's not cheap, but quite a bit less than an art gallery!" Tabarrok told me.
Just a few more hours to snap up the first Marginal Revolution NFT! An important addition to any media library. A great asset. Already doubled in price! It's going to moon! https://t.co/iKAII7R8sw
— Alex Tabarrok (@ATabarrok) March 22, 2021
Other platforms have one-time fees that are relatively reasonable. Alex Ramírez-Mallis, a film director who is selling recordings of farts on Opensea, said he only had to pay about $150 to set up an account on Opensea that allows him to mint unlimited NFTs for free. His "master collection" of farts recently sold for about $430—not a bad final haul. And Tom McKay, a staff writer at Gizmodo, sold an NFT of a tweet featuring pictures of his cat Larry using the platform Valuables by Cent and didn't have to pay any fees. He netted $50. Business Insider recently reported that confusion about fees for converting cryptocurrencies and minting has led some newbies to lose hundreds of dollars on NFTs.
What exactly are these fees for, and why do they vary so much?
NFTs exist on a blockchain, the digital ledger technology that underlies cryptocurrency and keeps track of who owns what assets. Performing actions like trading assets or minting tokens often requires huge amounts of electricity, which is why the environmental impact of NFTs has been a constant criticism of the trend. This is because the most popular blockchain networks where NFTs can be found usually use what's known as a "proof-of-work" model. Under this model, participants who want to execute some sort of action on a blockchain like transferring an NFT have to expend a ton of computing power to perform complex equations. The energy requirement acts as a sort of buy-in to ensure that people aren't overloading the system with frivolous actions; there's a fear, for instance, that NFT marketplaces would be flooded with spam without some sort of upfront payment. The NFT fees are paying for that expended energy.
Doing business on a marketplace often entails a fee to mint the NFT, which is essentially the process of registering the artwork or tweet or whatever as a token on the blockchain. There are also fees for making bids and transfers. Different platforms have different models for how they charge those fees. Some platforms won't actually go through the process of minting a token for a piece of art unless there's been a sale so that energy won't be wasted on making something that no one wants to buy. Others mint NFTs in batches, which brings costs down compared to making tokens one by one.

Cameron Hejazi, CEO of Valuables by Cent (where McKay sold his cat tweet), told me that the biggest cost saver for his platform has been using what's known as a sidechain. Sidechains allow users to transfer NFTs and other assets between different blockchains. "In terms of enabling three main things—buying, selling, and showcasing NFTs—there's no need to do that on the same platform," said Hejazi. Valuables by Cent conducts most of its transactions on a separate sidechain that runs parallel to the Ethereum blockchain. (Most NFTs are sold in Ethereum.) At the end of the process, the NFTs are then uploaded to the main Ethereum blockchain. On its sidechain, minting costs are so negligible that Valuables by Cent ends up covering it for customers. There is a small transaction fee, but that ends up getting paid by the buyers, since Valuables by Cent figures that these people are already willing to spend money on this technology. This method also has the added benefit of using less energy. "There's no way that the network we are running is using more computation resources than an IT department at a university," said Hejazi. When asked whether he was concerned about the elimination of fees possibly leading to a flood of spam NFTs, Hejazi said, "At the end of the day, creators' reputations are being underwritten by what they put on the blockchain. If a creator wants to keep spamming, that'll look accordingly upon them."
There are downsides to using a sidechain like Valuables by Cent; it takes more steps to complete a transaction and thus can involve more friction. Yet, Hejazi sees the elimination of fees as integral to getting more people interested in the NFT space without the headaches. "I've been free from thinking about NFT fees, and I've been enjoying that freedom," he said. "I hope that others can join me in this oasis of low-cost NFTs, because it is an unnecessary cost in my mind."

Govt renames disability dept; 'divyang' replaces 'viklang'
The Department of Empowerment of Persons with Disabilities will now be known as 'Divyangjan' Sashaktikaran Vibhag in Hindi, dropping the word 'viklangjan' from its previous nomenclature.
The development comes nearly five months after Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his radio address 'Mann Ki Baat' on December 27, last year, had said physically challenged people have a "divine ability" and the term "divyang" should be used in place of "viklang" for them.
The Centre had proposed the change in name of the department by amending the Government of India (Allocation of Business) Rules, 1961.
Now, the Department of Empowerment of Persons with Disabilities ('Viklangjan' Sashaktikaran Vibhag) will be Department of Empowerment of Persons with Disabilities ('Divyangjan' Sashaktikaran Vibhag), according to an order issued by Cabinet Secretariat.
President Pranab Mukherjee has given approval to the new nomenclature, it said.
The department, which works under Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment, facilitates empowerment of persons with disabilities.
As per the 2011 census, the differently abled constitute 2.21 per cent of the total population of the country.

The Smart Way to Get Tough with Iran
September 2017 Persian Spring
In an op-ed published by The New York Times, authors argue about the benefits and downsides of the Iran nuclear agreement, as well as ways to handle the situation. According to columnists, the nuclear deal achieved the best of the available alternatives. It cuts off Iran's pathways to a bomb, sharply constrains its nuclear program for a long time, and provides for unprecedentedly strict monitoring and verification. Diplomacy avoided another war in the Middle East and averted the kind of crisis we now face with North Korea.
After two years of repeated affirmations of Iran's compliance by our intelligence community and the International Atomic Energy Agency, American policy is at a fork in the road.
"The smart way to proceed would be to keep the world's powers united and the burden of proof on Iran. That means working with partners on relentless enforcement; enhancing sanctions that punish Iran's non-nuclear misbehavior, including its missile program and sponsorship of terrorism; working closely with Arab partners to deter Iran's meddling in their internal affairs; and making plain our concerns with Iran's domestic human rights abuses. It means using the diplomatic channel we opened with Iran, after 35 years without such contact, to avoid inadvertent escalation. And it means making it clear that after some restrictions in the deal expire, the United States and the world will still not allow Iran to advance its nuclear program in threatening ways." the column reads.
Then there's the foolish way — which the Trump administration seems perpetually tempted to pursue. President Trump has already declared his hostility to the agreement. On Wednesday, he said he had reached a decision about the future of the deal, without saying what it was.
Speaking to the United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday, Trump called it an "embarrassment" and "one of the worst and most one-sided transactions the United States has ever entered into." This kind of posturing is turning Washington, rather than Tehran, into the diplomatic outlier, and sapping our partners' will to keep Iran's feet to the fire.
"The costs are already apparent. When the administration telegraphs plans to use its doubts about inspections as an excuse to leave the deal, it's not surprising that the I.A.E.A. and our negotiating partners resist American requests to activate the deal's provisions for access to suspicious military sites. And when Mr. Trump suggests abandoning this "bad" deal because the only "good" deal is one that magically covers all of Iran's regional activities, it only becomes harder to mobilize international pressure against Iran's Revolutionary Guard and its proxies like Hezbollah. By failing to operate in good faith, the administration has weakened — not strengthened — our hand." authors underscore.
Furthermore, authors agree that if president Trump really wants to back out of the deal, he should express his stance, adding that "then he owes it to the American people to explain how he would block Iran from developing a nuclear weapon, curb its destabilizing behavior in the region, and prevent all the other calamitous consequences of his unilateralism. And fantasy scenarios where we get everything — and Iran gives up everything — will not suffice. We already have one nuclear crisis with North Korea. We don't need a second one. The administration should back off from its dangerous folly, commit to the deal, enforce it to the hilt, and work with our partners on a long-term strategy to deal with Iran's challenge."

Q: SaveAs to SharePoint I am using the following to save a file to s SP folder
wbCO.SaveAs Filename:=strFile, FileFormat:=xlOpenXMLWorkbook, CreateBackup:=False

The path and file name are all valid and correct so this is not the issue.
strFile = "https://xxx.sharepoint.com/sites/xxx/Shared Documents/Properties/PropertyName/PropertyName_16_Apr.xlsx"

I am getting an odd issue where the file saves with the stated filename but I get a 1004 error saying document not saved.
I have had thsi file working at times and then sometimes it doesn't and I'm guessing it's because it is saving to SP which I always have issues with when using.
I am running this on a Windows platform but it ultimately needs to work on a Mac platform. I know the majority of the code is working but the SaveAs line falls over so help with this would be useful too!
TIA

Revolution To Close A Number Of Bars Forever Because Of 10pm Curfew
by The YorkshiremanOctober 27, 2020
Revolution, a well-established bar with sites in major cities across the UK, has announced that at least 130 jobs are at risk as talks with creditors begin next month.
And it turns out the 10pm curfew is to blame, with reports stating that the new rules are hindering the bars sales, with revenue down by around a third. The company, Revolution Bars Limited, has said they will close six bars – with further details yet to be announced on which bars will be cut. The chain will also reduce rent on another seven venues as part of a proposed company voluntary arrangement (CVA) that will be voted on at a meeting on November 13.
The businesses sales were on the rise before the curfew was implemented, with figures at nearly 78% of last year's levels. Since curfew started, however, figures have dropped 49.4%, says the company.
A post shared by Revolution Bars (@revolutionbars)
Revolution Bars chief executive Rob Pitcher explained: "Throughout this extended period of distress caused by Covid-19, the group has sought to prioritise the health and wellbeing of its staff and customers, minimise its cash consumption, maintain good levels of liquidity to ensure its ongoing viability and to be in a position to take advantage of opportunities that may arise once restrictions are lifted.
"The CVA proposed by the group's Revolution Bars Limited subsidiary entity, if agreed by landlords, is another proactive step to lower outgoings to help safeguard the future of the group and improve long-term performance."
There are currently 50 Revolution sites across the UK, with 2,500 currently employed by the company.

Thats the way it is...: Luray caverns !
its a busy life no matter wat you do !
wishing well and attractive stalagmites at Luray caverns!
We were in for a grand surprise as the darkness unveiled the beauty of stalagmites settled under the ground before thousands of years.It was more artistically presented with lights at suitable distances.Maybe this is what inspired the Indian movie director Manirathnam to shoot most of his movies in utter darkness with little light that reflects a totally nonrelated subject hence beautifying the entire scene of the movie.Nevermind, we headed in the trail with the wonderful view of lots of stalagmites that were naturally sculpted centuries ago. There is a stalagmite in the shape of the Leaning tower of Pisa , well this one was not leaning, though.There is a wishing well too. This is one destination that was never on my list but gave me the most refreshment and the much needed ambience, like it was air conditioned naturally .
There s an antic car showroom showcasing world's most expensive and branded sports car in the campus.It was a cool day out in all .

Thetford Forest Tour (A Coach Trip in Thetford Forest)
"Thetford Forest Tour" is a Coach Trip devised and led by the well known Blue Badge Guide Colin Crosby, of Colin Crosby Heritage Tours.
These excursions are an ideal way of soaking up some Local History.
The coach leaves St. Margarets Bus Station in the centre of Leicester at 8am, and is expected back about 9.30pm.
This is an "Autumn Colours Tour". These tours are timed to show off thousands upon thousands of trees at their Autumnal best, when the leaves have turned to those wonderful shades of russet and gold.
Colin gives his usual inimitable commentary along the way, the factor which makes his trips quite unique.
The coach will wend its way through the lovely Thetford Forest, close to the sandy Breckland on the borders between Norfolk and Suffolk.
There are three stops, each of approximately an hour.
The first stop is at Brandon, where many houses show the importance of flint, which has been mined here since prehistoric times.
Then it's on to Thetford, an ancient town which was formerly a cathedral city, where the influential writer Tom Paine was born.
The last stop is at Bury St. Edmunds, a splendid market town where the cathedral has in the 21st century gained a new mediaeval style tower.
Other tours in the "Autumn Colours" series include Epping Forest Tour, New Forest Tour and Forest of Dean Tour.
A place on 'Thetford Forest Tour' costs £21.00 per person, or £21.00 if paying in advance. The coach trip begins at St. Margarets Bus Station, and is running on:

Volkswagen to Shorten Product Life Cycle From 7 Years to 5
Jason Udywriter
Volkswagen intends to shorten its product cycle in the U.S. by two years to just five years, reports Bloomberg. The move would allow the automaker to bring newer products to market more quickly, keeping customer interest longer.
Currently, Volkswagen introduces a redesigned model every seven years and a face-lift every four years. With the five-year schedule, Volkswagen would refresh the models every three years -- a pattern that many Japanese automakers follow.
"Customers want quicker change," Michael Horn, head of VW's U.S. operations, told Bloomberg in an interview. "We're working to shorten the life cycle of the products to bring more new features and design elements, in terms of face-lifts, to the market quicker. We believe we have a positive business case. It commercially makes sense that we move."
The plans, however, aren't set in stone yet as it needs to be approved by the management board committee. That approval is expected next month. If the plan gets the go-ahead, the shorter cycle probably wouldn't start until 2017. Volkswagen already aims to sell 800,000 cars in the U.S. by 2018 --nearly twice the number the automaker sold in the U.S. last year.
Back in February, Volkswagen held a two-day summit in Wolfsburg that included about 50 people from research, engineering, sales, production, and marketing to study the U.S. market and the associated challenges and opportunities.
"The attendance was even much bigger than we originally intended because they want to help," Horn said. "For the first time we've discussed the business case to really shorten our life cycles here in the U.S. and to be a little bit more dynamic in terms of design changes."


Burriana, Spain: tourism in Burriana, Spain.
If you have ever wanted to know everything about the orange, then this is the ideal place.
Just 13 kilometres from Castellón de la Plana, you will find the town of Burriana, right on the Costa del Azahar coast. Its historic center has been declared of Cultural Interest. Apart from the Modernist buildings to be seen around town, you will also find other interesting monuments such as the Gothic El Salvador Church (13th century), and the San José de los Carmelitas Descalzos Church, which conserves polychromed wooden altars of great artistic value. An unusual visit not to be missed is the Orange Museum, the only one of its kind in Europe.

Summary: I arrived in Dent for a weekend of walking with friends. It was mid afternoon on a Friday and on looking at the map found this short walk. It was a lovely warm up for the walks we had planned for the following Saturday and Sunday. In fact it was a 'midget gem' that had some sweet moments on the way.
We had also stopped to catch our breath as this first haul was a stiff relentless climb. It was a typical summer 2003 day, warm and sunny which gave us the opportunity to look over Dent Dale at its most majestic. I had knowledge of this path as I had taken it, in the opposite direction while doing the Dales Way in April. From here on Stewart and I were to walk on unknown terrain in the capable hands of Deke. Our guide took us off the track and in a northerly direction onto open moor. During the walk on this hardly touched section we found a full unopened bottle of Bacardi Breezer! At least someone had been here before. We made our way, not opening the weathered bottle losing height off the fell until we arrived at High Force waterfall on Cabbage Hill (SD750855) which beckons the beginning of Hacker Gill. Little did we know the next mile was going to be a fantastic exploration.
There is always something exciting about descending into a Gill. I suppose it is because they are usually surrounded by trees making the next turning or drop a mystery. You simply don't know what to expect as you can't see it whereas on the Fells you can see your next target some distance away and with it all the terrain you have to cross to get there. Gills are exciting places. Because of the extremely dry season the waterfall was no more than a trickle and the gill was easy to negotiate as we dropped down into its depths mainly walking on the water bed itself. A bit of moderate scrambling was called for as we followed the gill downstream enjoying it like the children we were in our youth. We all had tremendous fun, it was wonderful as we clambered over fallen trees and bottom shifted over slippery rocks until our excitement abruptly ended where we had to leave the water bed at Hackergill Farm. Here we climbed up the bank to the farm track where we joined a way marked path. We were now back in Dent Dale and followed the path over lush fields for a mile until we arrived back at the car at Whernside Manor. This is a brilliant short walk.

Clearly stated and a must share... so I'm sharing!
WOW! What a concept. Who Knew?
Is this where I can say "Thank you" for making these available to print? I've enjoyed that so much.
...this quote seems particularly aprapho amid the world's current political and religious upheaval.

Equity indexes finished mostly higher with the Dow, Russell 2K and S&P gaining, although the Tech-heavy NASDAQ succumbed to the rotational factors seen over the course of the week and closed lower. The S&P logged another weekly gain, its fourth in six weeks, touching an all-time intraday high of 3,645 on Monday, while the Russell 2K gained over 6% making it its best week since the beginning of October.
The S&P 500 Pure Growth index lagged the S&P 500 Pure Value index by nearly 900bps over the course of the week, with the move being exacerbated by positioning and extreme over/under valuations.
FAANG heavy sectors Consumer Discretionary and Technology were the only two that finished lower on the week while Communication Services, although closing higher, lagged broader markets.
Pfizer and BioNtech announced on Monday morning before the opening bell that their vaccine candidate exhibited a 90% efficacy rate, driving the risk-on tone seen throughout the week.
With the outbreak at its most intense levels since March, officials throughout the country have announced the re-imposing of restrictions in their cities and states including Chicago, New York, Oregon and San Francisco amongst others.
One of our trading partners noted a significant pickup in activity from fundamentally and institutionally-managed strategies as quant-driven trading strategies have been quieter than expected.
U.S. equities rallied yet again in Monday's session as more positive vaccine news announced by Moderna had investors adding risk to portfolios, with a continuation of value sectors that led the week prior continuing to pave the way.
With the recent news of a potential vaccine emerging, we have seen a surge in investor optimism with the American Association of Individual Investors survey hitting its highest levels since early 2018
On Sunday, fifteen Asia pacific nations including China, Japan, and South Korea signed the world's largest regional free-trade agreement. The deal includes the removal of at least 92% of tariff on traded goods among signing parties, a framework for online consumer and data protection, as well as simplified customs procedures and increased foreign shareholding limit.
Equity indexes finished mostly higher with the Dow, Russell 2K, and S&P gaining, although the Tech-heavy NASDAQ succumbed to the rotational factors seen over the course of the week and closed lower. The S&P logged another weekly gain, its fourth in six weeks, touching an all-time intraday high of 3,645 on Monday, while the Russell 2K gained over 6% making it its best week since the beginning of October. Treasury yields rose as the curve steepened as the 10-year yield moved to its highest levels since March, however failed to break the 1.00% level. Gold saw its largest one-day drop in more than seven years on Monday, falling 4.53% while managing to pair losses over the rest of the week, settling down 3.4% over the five days.
FACTOR ROTATION
With the risk-on tone gripping markets, investors have continued to see a rotation out of growth names and into cyclical/value plays. The S&P 500 Pure Growth index lagged the S&P 500 Pure Value index by nearly 900bps over the course of the week. The move, which is likely exacerbated by positioning and extreme over/under valuations in each of the respective factors, was the largest weekly relative move for value since early June, and its second largest since 2009. Analysts have seen the valuation gap between the two near its widest point since 2012 with many of the FAANG names up around 30-60% year-to-date, while many value names remain in a negative territory on a year-to-date basis.
FAANG heavy sectors, Consumer Discretionary, and Technology were the only two that finished lower on the week, while Communication Services lagged broader markets. The beaten down Energy sector, down 49.96% year-to-date while coming into the week, was the best performing, rallying over 17% as prospects for global consumption and demand appeared to pick up on the back of Pfizer's vaccine news. Other year-to-date laggards including Financials and Industrials also outperformed, with strength in Banks, Airlines and Aerospace/Defense names.
There were multiple themes adding to the risk-on rally that continued to develop over the course of the week, but none was bigger than the positive COVID-19 vaccine data announced by Pfizer and BioNtech. The companies announced on Monday morning before the opening bell that their vaccine candidate exhibited a 90% efficacy rate only seven-days after the second dose was administered. The rate was much better than the 50% experts had originally anticipated, with Anthony Fauci hailing the findings as "extraordinary". While Pfizer has said they anticipate having about 50M doses available by the end of the year and more than 1B in 2021, concerns surrounding how many individuals will actually take the vaccine have started to ramp up. According to the World Economic forum, adults across 15 countries strongly or somewhat agree with the statement "if a vaccine for COVID-19 were available, I would get it" has fallen to 73%, 4% below the original figure three months earlier. While 73% appear to agree with the statement, many experts believe that an even lower percentage will actually look to get vaccinated because the vaccine was developed and approved in record time.

U.S. equities rallied yet again in Monday's session as more positive vaccine news announced by Moderna had investors adding risk to portfolios. The company announced that their COVID-19 vaccine candidate demonstrated 94.5% efficacy in its Phase 3 trial, outdoing the already better-than-anticipated 90% efficacy announced by Pfizer and BioNtech last week. The news sent the Dow Jones to a record intra-day high as value names once again outperformed its growth counterpart by more than 80bps.
With the recent news of a potential vaccine emerging, we have also seen a surge in investor optimism. According to a survey from the American Association of Individual Investors, U.S. investor sentiment hit its highest levels since early 2018, as those who remain positive on the market versus those who are bearish, is now more than two standard deviations above the average of the last five years.
Source: Bloomberg, AAII as of 11.18.2020
Picking up right where we left off last week, Energy, Industrials and Financials all outperformed, while Technology, Communication Services and Consumer Discretionary lagged broader U.S. benchmarks. Cruise lines, retailers, restaurants, travel, lodging and casinos all saw outsized gains on COVID-19 vaccine optimism, while the stay-at-home beneficiaries were amongst the largest decliners. The move lower in software, telehealth, online food delivery, and online retailers comes despite the rising infection numbers across the U.S. Oil prices rose 3% on Monday and another 0.22% in Tuesday's session, adding to last week's 8% gain even as global demand still remains well off pre-pandemic levels.
Last week, global equities moved 2.2% higher as investors' risk appetite climbed over the prospect of a 2021 rebound. Energy was the best performing sector with 12.69% gains, capitalizing on a steady rise in crude oil prices. Financials and real estate also posted solid gains as the rotation towards value continues to gain traction. However, Technology and Consumer Discretionary lagged the MSCI ACWI index with negative weekly returns. The year-on-year world economy weighted inflation dropped from 2.6% to 2.3% as COVID-19 continues to put downside pressure on consumer prices.
European Central Bank president Christine Lagarde announced that policy makers will remain neutral on interest rates and use the emergency Quantitative Easing (QE) program to adjust monetary policy. She said, "while all options are on the table, the pandemic emergency purchase program and targeted longer-term refinancing operations have proven their effectiveness". One unintended consequence of the program is the narrowing of credit spreads, which consequently pushes yield-seeking investors to the junk bond market. The Euro STOXX Index rallied 6.39% last week led by banks, up 20.01%.
French president Emmanuel Macron said in an interview with Paris-based policy journal Le Grand Continent that under Biden, the European Union (EU) cannot go back to relying on the United States. He added, "the United States will only respect us as allies if we are earnest, and if we are sovereign with respect to our defense". In a separate interview, he announced that bars and restaurants would remain closed until mid-January while stadiums will be closed to the public until the beginning of 2021. The CAC 40 Index gained 8.45% last week, led by industrials and financials.
In the United Kingdom (UK), insufficient progress was made regarding the Brexit transition which prompted the negotiating parties to extend the deal deadline once again. British Prime Minister Boris Johnson commented, "it is far from certain that an agreement will prove possible, and time is now very short. The UK is keen to secure a deal with the EU, but not at the cost of our core principles around sovereignty and control over our laws, borders, money and our fish". The FTSE 100 Index increased 6.88% last week.
On Sunday, fifteen Asia pacific nations including China, Japan and South Korea signed the world's largest regional free-trade agreement. The deal includes the removal of at least 92% of tariff on traded goods among signing parties, a framework for online consumer and data protection, as well as simplified customs procedures. Bloomberg reports, "at least 65% of services sectors will be fully open with increased foreign shareholding limits". India is the major absentee from this deal, as Prime Minister Narendra Modi pulled out of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) last year. The trade agreement is viewed as a manifestation of China's growing regional influence just three years after the United States exited the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP). The Shanghai Composite index decreased 0.06% last week.
In Japan, the Bank of Japan (BOJ) announced a new facility that will pay 0.1% interest to banks that will agree to restructure their operations through mergers or cost cutting. The facility will be available for three years to March 2023. This initiative was designed to offset the impact of negative interest rates on regional banks. Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga expressed that he was in favor of banking consolidation because there were according to him "too many regional banks". BOJ's program is estimated to inject $475 million, which may be too little to encourage mergers. The Nikkei 225 gained 4.36% last week.
In Brazil, municipal elections held on Sunday resulted in the defeat of most candidates backed by President Jair Bolsonaro in big cities. The election was interpreted as a referendum on the president's governance. Indeed, COVID-19 plunged the country into a recession which cost Bolsonaro a few popularity points. However, Brazil has registered manufacturing PMI above 60.0 for three consecutive months, which points to the effectiveness of the monetary and fiscal response. The Brazil Ibovespa Index increased 3.76% last week.
India is keen on attracting foreign investments to build up to 100 smart cities post pandemic. According to the Indian Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs, 40% of population is expected to live in cities by 2030. The second most populated country in the world will have to develop 800 million square meters each year until 2030 to meet rising demand. According to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, two-thirds of the $30 billion project has already been completed. As part of its affordable rental housing initiative, the government plans to invest in 10 million urban homes by the end of 2022. Indian stocks gained 3.72% last week.

est un jeu vidéo d'aventure et de réflexion du type point and click développé par Level-5 et sorti au Japon le .

Il s'agit du  de la série des jeux Professeur Layton dans l'ordre de sortie, mais du second dans l'ordre chronologique. Cet opus est donc la suite du jeu Professeur Layton et l'appel du spectre et du film Professeur Layton et la diva éternelle. Le jeu ne propose plus d'énigmes hebdomadaires, mais une énigme quotidienne pendant un an.

Au Japon, une nouvelle version du jeu intitulée "Professeur Layton et le Masque des Miracles Plus +" est sortie le . Vendue moins cher que le jeu original ( yens contre ), elle contient des séquences inédites du scénario et de nouvelles énigmes.

Histoire

Les évènements de ce jeu se déroulent deux ans avant Professeur Layton et l'étrange village, un an après Professeur Layton et l'appel du spectre et quelques mois après Professeur Layton et la diva éternelle.

Quelque temps après leurs aventures à Ambrosia, le professeur Layton reçoit une lettre de son amie d'enfance Marissa Dumont qui lui demande de venir la voir à Dorémont, la cité des prodiges. En effet un étrange homme surnommé le Maître du masque, portant sur le visage l'inquiétant Masque du chaos, sévit en ces lieux : capable de voler, de matérialiser les personnages de tableaux, de brûler des gens, de les pétrifier ou encore de les faire disparaître dans les airs, l'individu a de quoi susciter les craintes des habitants.

Se rendant sur place avec Luke Triton et Emmy Altava, le professeur mène l'enquête. Une enquête qui va bien vite le replonger dans les souvenirs de jeunesse, à l'époque où il allait au lycée en compagnie de Marissa mais aussi son meilleur ami, Randall Ascott, fils d'un baron et surtout, un passionné d'archéologie. C'est Randall qui était parvenu à intéresser le jeune et chevelu Hershel Layton à cette activité. Mais un tragique évènement a séparé Layton et Randall : lors de leur exploration des ruines d'Akavadon, Randall a disparu au fond d'un gouffre, emporté par un terrain instable alors qu'ils franchissaient l'ultime étape menant au supposé trésor de la civilisation Aslante...

Personnages
 Professeur Hershel Layton : Célèbre professeur d'archéologie enseignant à l'université de Gressenheller, Hershel Layton est un parfait gentleman, passionné d'énigmes et grand amateur de thé. Cela ne l'empêche pas d'être aussi un escrimeur hors pair.  Il est également très fier de sa voiture, la Laytonmobile. Son bien le plus précieux est son chapeau haut-de-forme. Au lycée, il était ami avec Marissa Dumont et Randall Ascott. Ce dernier lui a donné goût à l'aventure et lui a permis de devenir l'éminent professeur d'archéologie qu'il est aujourd'hui. Il avoue un certain manque d'organisation... Il lui arrive souvent d'interrompre le rangement de ses étagères pour lire un livre ou deux.
 Luke Triton : Luke est un garçon intelligent et très doué qui se considère comme l'apprenti du célèbre professeur Layton. Sa capacité à parler aux animaux s'est avérée utile dans ses enquêtes. Du haut de ses 11 ans, il a toutefois encore beaucoup à apprendre. C'est un garçon gentil et sincère, mais comme beaucoup d'enfants de son âge, il peut parfois se montrer insolent.
 Emmy Altava : L'assistante du professeur Layton est une jeune femme à la fois intelligente et vive. Elle est passionnée de photographie et ne voyage jamais sans son appareil photo. Toujours prête à foncer tête baissé, sa maîtrise des arts martiaux complète à merveille l'esprit affuté du professeur. Mais une âme sensible se cache sous ses dehors rebelle.
 Jean Descole : Scientifique autoproclamé, Descole cache derrière des apparences nobles un esprit froid et calculateur. Il ne recule devant rien pour parvenir à ses fins, n'hésitant pas à manipuler ses semblables et à accomplir les pires horreurs. Il nourrit un intérêt particulier pour l'archéologie, étant à la recherche des reliques d'une ancienne civilisation, et a poussé Randall à réaliser ses « prodiges » pour lui... Impatient, il a pris l'apparence de Marissa afin d'obtenir au plus vite le Masque de l'ordre.
 Inspecteur Clamp Grosky : L'inspecteur phare de Scotland Yard. Personnage plutôt sanguin et doté d'une volonté de fer, il est très fier de ses muscles et de son abondante pilosité. Il consacre toute son énergie à ses enquêtes, quitte à en faire parfois un peu trop. C'est un homme pur et honnête, parfois un peu naïf. C'est d'ailleurs bien souvent le professeur Layton qui résout les enquêtes à sa place. Même s'il en parle peu, il est séparé de sa femme.
 Marissa Dumont : Dans sa jeunesse, Marissa était une jeune fille enjouée et pleine de charme. Elle a perdu son frère dans une expédition archéologique et à cause de cette tragédie voit d'un très mauvais œil les expéditions dans lesquelles Randall se lance les yeux fermés. À la disparition de Randall, elle ne sort plus de chez elle. Elle fait ensuite croire qu'elle a épousé Henry mais en réalité, tout comme lui, elle attend le retour de Randall, chérissant le pendentif qu'il lui avait donné. Se doutant de l'identité du Maître du Masque, elle souhaitait qu'Hershel confirme ses soupçons.
 Henry Dumont : Adolescent studieux et dévoué, le jeune Henry suivait une formation de majordome dans la famille Ascott. Très intelligent, il a aidé Randall a résoudre l'énigme de Norwell. Bien qu'il éprouve des sentiments pour Marissa, il a préféré les taire par égard pour Randall. Après la disparition de Randall, il a fondé Dorémont en injectant toute sa fortune dans la ville. Il n'a jamais oublié la gentillesse de Randall à son égard et a attendu son retour pendant dix-huit ans. Il tient au robot que Randall lui a donné quand ils étaient enfants comme à la prunelle de ses yeux.
 Randall Ascott : Au grand désespoir de sa petite amie Marissa, le jeune Randall adorait rêver d'expéditions et de ruines perdus. Plein d'entrain à dix-sept ans, il arrivait toujours à entraîner ses amis dont Hershel dans ses projets les plus fous. Il ne portait des lunettes que pour imiter le style d'un célèbre archéologue. Après sa disparition dans les ruines d'Akavadon, il passe près de dix-huit ans amnésique dans le village de Craggy Dale jusqu'à ce que Descole lui "apprenne la vérité". Sous le déguisement du Maître du Masque, il apparaît dans la ville de Dorémont et commence à réaliser toutes sortes de prodiges, démystifiés par la suite par le professeur Layton. Il comptait ainsi se venger d'Henry, se croyant à tort volé et trahi. Malgré toutes ces années, il a gardé le caractère attachant qu'appréciaient tant ses amis.
 Alphonse Dalston : Enfant, c'était le rebelle de la bande. Son visage renfrogné et sa franchise sans borne donnaient une mauvaise image de lui, mais les personnes qui le connaissent savent qu'il ne ferait pas de mal à une mouche. La fortune de son père le laisse de marbre : il tient à bâtir son propre empire. Devenu magnat de l'immobilier, ses difficultés à exprimer ses sentiments le font passer pour un requin. Son souhait le plus cher était d'avoir son propre hôtel afin de bâtir une vie qu'il puisse contempler avec fierté dans ses vieux jours...
 Sheffield : À la tête des forces de police de Dorémont, le commissaire Sheffield a pour mission de ne laisser aucune chance au crime. Son agressivité et sa poigne de fer lui valent l'admiration de ses pairs. Hélas, sa dernière affaire lui a posé beaucoup de difficultés... Il ne s'entend pas bien du tout avec l'inspecteur Bloom.
 Leon Bronev : Personnage entouré de mystère, il est le chef de l'organisation TARGET. Il est clair que l'inspecteur en chef Bloom travaille pour lui, mais Bronev semble aussi avoir un lien avec Layton et Descole, même si cela n'est pas confirmé... Il semble à la recherche d'une chose en lien avec l'antique civilisation Aslante...
 Léonard Bloom : Inspecteur en chef, c'est un jeune prodige envoyé par Scotland Yard. Bien qu'il participe à l'enquête sur le Maître du Masque, son véritable objectif est que Layton le mène au Masque de l'ordre. Loyal par nature, il suit les ordres à la lettre, quoi qu'il arrive. Il fait certainement partie de TARGET, travaillant pour Bronev.
 Lady Ascott : C'est la mère de Randall. Elle vivait en secret chez Henry en attendant le retour de son fils. C'est elle qui s'est porté garante pour Henry quand il a commencé à créer la ville de Dorémont.
 Elizabeth : Médium se faisant appeler "Elizabeth", cette magnifique et extralucide vieille dame prend soin des énigmes laissées de côté par Layton et ses compagnons. Elle ressemble à quelqu'un, mais à qui...? On dit que son masque dissimule un visage d'une beauté à couper le souffle, mais cela reste à vérifier...
 Aldus : C'est un homme doux et amical, mais personne ne semble lui faire confiance. C'est le fléau des touristes car il empiète constamment sur leur espace personnel. Un brin envahissant donc, il anticipe souvent les déplacements de Layton et ne manque jamais de lui prodiguer ses conseils. Il ne jette jamais rien et garde ses trésors dans un coffre en bois. D'ailleurs, il adore les boîtes en bois et en a toujours une sur lui...
 Hannah : Jeune femme raffinée, elle est la présidente et l'unique membre des Clampettes, le fan-club de Clamp Grosky. Elle pense que Grosky est l'homme qu'elle attend depuis si longtemps. Dès qu'elle le voit, elle est submergée par l'émotion et pour lui, s'il le fallait, elle déplacerait des montagnes. Elle est bien connue des services de police pour être toujours la première sur les lieux du crime... dans l'espoir d'apercevoir l'inspecteur de ses rêves, armée de son plus beau sourire !
