Coralhouse Denied

28 Jun 05

An Academy ethics board has rejected a huge legacy left by the late Ruth Coralhouse because the conditions attached were considered inappropriate. She wanted the money to go towards research into producing a device to transport physical objects between Perplex City and Earth, so that her ashes could be scattered here. Academy rep Valerian Reynolds said that accepting the gift might unduly influence the direction of their research.

Salk Briefly Emerges from Sudden Coma

23 Jun 05

Sentinel reporter Pietro Salk revives briefly from his coma to work furiously on his key, before collapsing again. The fruits of his labour are posted by his wife on their family website.

(The doctors aren't saying what caused the coma in the first place, but it looks very like a malicious attack using some kind of neural disruptor - the same kind of weapon used in the Cube theft. Has Pietro become another victim of V?)

Holyoke Housed Stolen Academy Equipment

11 May 05

Pietro Salk reports that the police have found high-tech kit hidden at the Five of Cups, the bar owned by Bernardo Holyoke. (What he doesn't mention is that the tip-off regarding the equipment came from him, acting on information given to him by The Advisor. It looks like she definitely does have access to inside info.) And what was Holyoke doing with all this stolen Academy kit?
