- Why Philadelphia’s hard-working mentality is key to its business innovation success - In this op-ed, entrepreneur and investment partner, Michael DiPiano says that Philadelphia has a well-deserved reputation for grittiness and hard work, but he says the city is underrated as the innovation center that it is. In particular, he points to the city's 1,500 start-ups, 128 local firms on the Inc. 5000 list, and the accelerator program at the University City Science Center as evidence of fast-paced innovation. He adds that the city has favorable demographics and economic conditions to keep the innovation growing.
- MAN USES HIS HEAT-SEEKING DRONE TO FIND MISSING CHILD - On Tuesday, a six-year old boy went missing while walking his dog in Minnesota. The community and police joined in the search for him, including a local police helicopter. Ten after he disappeared, he was found by a local reporter with a heat-seeking drone. The boy was lying in a field with his dog, Remington, about a mile from his home. Aside from being cold, the boy was healthy, and he returned home after evaluation at a local hospital.
