FLYING HIGH

Goodyear's latest and greatest blimp'mobile is complete and ready to settle in Carson, California soon.  "The 246-foot-long ship, named Wingfoot Two, is the second in a fleet of three flashy airships the company is slowly phasing in to replace its 1920s-designed iconic branded blimps."   It is faster, longer, and can move dextrously, like a helicopter can.  One thing that remains the same?  --What goes up, must come down.       news

A CHANGE UP

The New York brownstone made famous for making Audrey Hepburn look good in Breakfast at Tiffanys (or maybe she did 'looking good' all on her own---) just changed hands again.  Listed for $10 million in 2014, it sold in June for $7.4 with word of renovation headed it's way.   story

FOUNDATION CRACKS

Forget polar bears, high adventure, and extreme weather -- in Alaska you can watch ice!  Or at least watch it crack.  Or at least wait around, to watch it, get ready to crack.  "Thousands of people each year pay to try to guess the exact date and time the ice will break up on the Tanana River in Nenana, Alaska. . . . A clock is connected by cable to a wooden tripod anchored in the river ice, "that will tip when the ice cracks, stopping a connected clock (news link).
