Construction firms struggle to find workers Editor’s note: This story is the result of months of research and interviews conducted through a Hamilton County Leadership Academy group project. Some of the information and quotes are taken from a JoyPowered Workspace Podcast, which also was part of the project. Listen to the podcast at joypowered.podbean.com/e/ careers-without-college/.

By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com You don’t have to look far to see that construction is booming in EMPLOYMENT Hamilton County. From Midtown in Carmel to The Yard in Fishers to neighborhoods popping up throughout Westfield, new buildings and developments quickly are changing the landscape.

Although economic conditions are ripe for growth, they’re creating difficulties for many construction companies, which are struggling to find and retain enough workers Stephan to keep up with demand.

And in places like Hamilton County, experts say a long-held mindset that four years in college naturally follows high school keeps many young people from even considering a job in the trades, which include careers that can be just as lucrative as some that require a degree — without all the student loan debt.

“It’s really about a lack of education and understanding what the options and possibilities are, and sometimes there are stigmas associated with that, especially in a highly educated community with lots of professionals and people who went to college,” said Melinda Stephan, a college and career counselor at Carmel High School. “I think sometimes people don’t know what the options are, and what you don’t know can be kind of scary sometimes.”

Meanwhile, construction costs and timelines continue to expand as the industry deals with the labor shortage. According to the Associated General Contractors of Amer-

ica, 72 percent of contractors in Indiana are having trouble finding skilled trade workers and 83 percent said they need to hire more workers because business is booming.

‘The gap continues to widen’

For David Decker, attending college was the “next expected step in growing into an adult” after high school. He did well at first, but after struggling to find ways to apply what he was learning, he dropped out and started his own business.

Now, the Fishers resident is the founder and CEO of ACo, a full-service kitchen, bath and flooring dealer in Carmel. He’s troubled by the statistic that 60 percent of students who enroll in four-year college programs don’t graduate within six years, and he’s doing something about it.

Decker is launching Hub & Spoke, a design center that will include a makerspace, warehouse, co-working and retailers. One of it’s main goals, however, is to educate students — and the community at-large — about the variety of jobs available in homebuilding and design industries and provide a place for them to explore related careers in a handson environment. The 86,000-square-foot center is set to open in February 2020 along the proposed Nickel Plate Trail in Fishers.

“Almost half of the workforce in the skilled trades is over 45 years old, so they’re nearing retirement and there’s not really a big push for new kids to come in. You can see the gap just continues to widen,” Decker said. “There’s this real stigma around the industry. The kids don’t realize those opportunities are there.”

Carmel-based Mattingly Concrete owner Will Mattingly, who didn’t attend college, said his business, like so many others, has struggled to attract young workers because they often don’t realize the immediate earning potential in the field. He’s started offering scholarships to students interested in studying construction who come work for the company in the summer.

“The hope is to open the eyes of some of these young people to show them maybe they can make a good living and live in a

nice neighborhood and have the white picket fence and everything doing a trade,” said Mattingly, a Carmel resident.

Open to opportunities As the construction industry does what it can to promote the benefits of a career in the trades to young workers, several high schools in Hamilton County also are trying to get the message out.

At Westfield High School, students interested in construction have the opportunity to build a house inside Haberman the school each semester.

In Noblesville, the district’s expansive internship program includes partnerships with several construction companies to give interested students a taste of those careers.

At CHS, Stephan said she tries to get students to evaluate their interests and strengths before they make a decision about what to do after graduation. Once they better understand who they are, she can help guide them through options after high school, whether that includes a career in construction or not.

“As they start to figure out what they’re good at and what they want to do, that’s where the conversation about college or not (going to) college comes in,” she said.

Noblesville resident Chuck Haberman, leader of workforce development at Gaylor Electric, said that only 15 to 20 percent of the more than 1,200 employees at his company have a four-year college degree. He said it’s a “big misconception” that working in construction is a fallback if other plans don’t work out. Gaylor is always seeking new workers and provides training and support to help them reach their career goals.

“In the end, anybody can do it if they’re willing to take the time to learn it and put in the effort to really master the craft,” he said. “It can be really rewarding for a very long time.”

History on Tap returns to Conner Prairie

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com History on Tap, a popular event at Conner Prairie geared toward THINGS TO DO adults, will return May 31 for its eighth year.

“It offers the opportunity to experience a craft beer festival and the beautiful grounds and engage in programs they typically wouldn’t have the opportunity to engage with at Conner Prairie,” said Andrew Collins, research and strategic analytics manager.

“Since the event is 21-plus, it allows interpreters and staff to get creative and engage an entirely adult audience.”

Approximately 35 breweries are expected to participate. Collins said the event is opening up to all of Prairietown this year.

“The event just continues to grow both in scope and in depth,” Collins said. “It is planned by the Horizon Council, which is Conner Prairie’s young professional group. It was one of the first events that group brainstormed and executed, and there were 300 attendees the first year to over 1,500 last year. We are hoping to equip 2,000 this year.”

GOLF AT THE FORT Course ranked No. 1 in the nation for layout

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Central Indiana golfers don’t have to travel far to play one of COVER STORY the nation’s top public courses. The Fort Harrison Golf Resort in Lawrence was ranked No. 1 in the nation for course layout on Golf Advisor in 2018, followed by Bethpage Black in New York.

Golfers can fill out a form on Golf Advisor to rate courses after they play a round.

Layout quality is among the questions.

“It doesn’t mean we are going to be hosting U.S. Opens or anything. What it does mean is our customers consistently ranked us a five-star layout more so than any other course in America,” Fort Harrison Golf Resort’s PGA Director of Golf John Swan said. “We kind of brag about it now. The No. 2 course is Bethpage Black in New York, which has hosted two or three U.S Opens

and (hosted) the PGA championship (this month).”

Golf Advisor rankings only apply to public courses. Private courses are not included.

The Fort Harrison Golf Resort was originally designed as a nine-hole course when Fort Benjamin Harrison was an active military base. It was converted to 18 holes in the 1970s by golf course-designer Bill Diddel. It was then redesigned by Pete Dye, a Carmel resident, and Tim Liddy when the fort was decommissioned in 1995. That same year, 1,700 acres of the 2,500-acre fort was turned into a state park and nature preserve. The original nine holes were part of the base and believed to be designed by the Army Corp. of Engineers.

“What’s great about that (Golf Advisor ranking) obviously is, and we’ve known this for a long time, it’s people of Lawrence have access to one of the best golf courses in America right here in their backyard,” Swan said.

Swan said the ranking may attract more golfers to the course.

“We hope so. We think it will. We are proud of it,” Swan said. “If you’re an avid golfer and you’re traveling to Indianapolis

and you’re looking to play, you’re going to want to play at what’s regarded as one of the better golf courses in the area, so we really think it could help in that regard.”

For more, visit thefortgolfcourse.com.

VIEWS ON THE COURSE Fort Harrison Golf Resort PGA Director of Golf John Swan said the course, designed by renowned Carmel course designer Pete Dye, is unique for several reasons.

“Pete Dye is very famous, and he has created numerous top-quality golf courses, but they are also known for being very difficult golf courses,” Swan said. “The views we have here are much more different than what you see in central Indiana because it’s very hilly. Typical golf courses in Indi-

ana are cut out of old cornfields. We have a ravine through here. Because it’s surrounded by the state park and always will be, there are no buildings on this golf course, which is very rare anymore. Typically, there are homes all over a golf course.

“People love that they can come here, 20 minutes from downtown Indy, and it’s very secluded. Once you get out on the second tee, you’re surrounded by trees and its really very peaceful out there.”

ESSAY

LETTER Current bullies anti-vaxxers

Changing course Commentary by Terry Anker From our earliest memories, we are encouraged to stick it out.

When the going gets tough, the tough get going. Even the tagline from the 1999 science fiction spoof “Galaxy Quest” admonished us to “Never give up. Never surrender!”

It makes sense. Unless we push our limits, we are unlikely to come to understand what those bounds may be. Sadly, most of us operate far below our capacity, comfortable ensconced in false, lowered perceptions about what we’d be able to accomplish if we’d just put our minds to it. Is it easier to quit than do the work? Probably.

Still, are there times when we are well-advised to wave the white flag? Have we arrived at the point of over-promise and under-deliver?

Certainly, we don’t know if we will fail at a task until, well, we fail at it. And by then, the harm to ourselves and others is caused.

Does this put us under some moral duty to fight to the death even if our good intentions have led us to charge into a battle that we don’t have the desire to undertake?

Happily, circumstance can change with the winds of our will.

Dedication often trumps inherent skill. The tortoise only beat the rabbit because of a willingness to take on the race. But, can there be honor in calling it quits? When can we justly declare victory – or failure – and move on?

Hockey legend Wayne Gretzky famously remarked, “You miss 100 percent of the shots you don’t take.” Naturally, he is correct. Yet somehow, we can suspect that his success, in part, is measured by the shots that he did not take. No doubt, don’t be a quitter. But also, know when it is time to make a change. Isn’t intellect a far better master than ego?

Going out a winner Commentary by Danielle Wilson People have been asking, so I thought I’d let everyone know. I did end up beating my husband Doo in a triathlon a few weeks back (despite my inane deciHUMOR sion to buy him an exceptionally fast bike). But only by 9 seconds.

That’s why I am officially announcing my retirement from any kind of race where Doo also is competing. Never again will I risk the chance of a humiliating defeat. My ego can’t take it and Doo is getting too good.

And it’s not just the bike. He’s always been a better biker. He may have passed me a bit sooner than expected, but I am used to having to catch him on the run. And here in lies the problem. Five years ago, Doo almost stroked out during the 5K leg. He walked a good portion of it and required a concerning amount of Gatorade and sitting to recover (I destroyed him in that race, by

the way, even though I was suffering from a stomach virus that included vomiting and a low-grade fever. Super fun!).

From that day on, Doo has vowed to get in better shape and to one day cross the finish line before me. To that end, he has since completed two full marathons and a countless number of half-marathons. He has transformed himself into an athlete by sheer force of will. And his 8-inch height advantage effectively eliminates my willingness to die before letting him win.

I have no doubt Doo will emerge victorious next time, which is why I have decided there won’t be a “next time.” I mean, 9 seconds?

Peace out.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK “Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn.”

-Benjamin Franklin

Editor, I’m usually late reading the Current publication so I just saw Tim Campbell’s cartoon from March 26 about the unvaxxed child.

We are against bullying in our society but evidently the bullying towards anti-vaxxers is accepted? While this type of thing is evident nationally, I’m furious that my own community takes this stance.

“Anti-Vaxxers” should properly be referred to as “Pro-Health.” They do not blindly take their doctor’s word for anything. They do their own extensive research.

For example, I was tired after hearing time and again from doctors that they don’t know the cause or the cure for anything. It’s clear that doctors are only mainly taught how to administer drugs. This is definitely not a health-promoting situation since not one cell in my body is made up of artificial chemicals.

It’s sad how pro-vaxxers feel the need to push others into vaccinating, but anti-vaxxers aren’t pushing their beliefs on anyone.

I’m not trying to educate you. My point is that picking on “anti-vaxxers” in our community is utterly insulting since most people have no idea what the anti-vax movement is all about, and they don’t take the time to unlearn what they’ve been told by the so-called experts.

Joan O’Keefe, Fishers

Giving it my worst Commentary by Dick Wolfsie For 40 years, I have shared in loading and unloading the dishwasher (I’d rather clean the toilet with my toothbrush HUMOR or clean out the gutters with a teaspoon).

Today, my wife informed me that I’m now forever relieved of dishwasher duty.

“Just scrape the dishes and stack them in the sink,” she said. “You’re terrible at loading and it’s gotten worse by the day.

Ever wonder why when you unload the dishes, everything you flung into the machine willy-nilly has miraculously lined up perfectly in the appropriate slots? Who do you think did that?”

“Well, it takes almost an hour to run a load of dishes and I hear a lot of odd noises, so I assumed a mechanical realignment was one of the cycles.”

“You just toss the dishes in, with no regard for how the process works.”

“Mary Ellen, I load the dishwasher like I load our clothes washer. I don’t put socks in one part of the machine, then my pants in another. Why would I do that with cups and saucers?”

Mary Ellen claims I was getting progres-

sively worse at unloading as well. I dump the entire utensil holder into the silverware drawer. She has this odd notion that knives, spoons and forks go into their own compartments. She wants them separated — even before we set the table.

She also says I’ve been messing up the inside of our fridge. Apparently, again, everything has its proper place, so that’s why the mustard has been moving from the top shelf to the fridge door and why lettuce has often crept south to a thing called the “vegetable bin.” Jars have to go on the third shelf. That’s gotta be wrong, because when I was 6, the pickles always stared me right in the face. Going eye-to-eye with kosher dills goes back to the Old Testament.

I also may have a shot at never doing laundry again, but I won’t get complacent about my lack of accomplishments. There are beds not to be made and rugs not to be vacuumed. I’m very proud of myself. I’m doing the worst I can.

Yogurt myths — Yogurt is often marketed as helping digestion because of probiotics — the good bacteria that our guts need for good health. Bacteria affect our metabolism and obesity rates, among other things, so the connection seems logical.

This may be true but scientists don’t fully

understand how the millions of bacteria already in our bodies work together. What we do know, though, is that most yogurts are packed with sugar, which contributes to obesity and other problems.

Leader? Really?

Commentary by Randy Wheeler I’m speaking to employees in their organization and ask: LEADERSHIP “Are you a leader?”

A few hands shoot confidently in the air, others are raised hesitantly while some individuals avoid eye contact.

“Do any of you interact with anyone?”

I ask.

A chuckle arises from some as all the hands go up in the air. Why ask these questions? I was helping each of them realize they are leaders since leadership is influence.

Within an organization or team, individuals may have a title or position and are formally considered leaders. Some are truly influential leaders and some are not. Then, there is another group of people who don’t even realize they are leading. These are the followers. These are the individuals who believe in the overall cause of the organization or team but do not necessarily want a title or position.

These individuals are listened to by most and have influence among their peers.

They are leaders.

GARDEN

OUTDOOR LIVING

Now, I must clarify that every individual constantly influences in either a positive or negative direction by their actions, words and attitude. How can we all lead better, either at work or at home?

Connect: Leadership expert John Maxwell calls it “walking slowly through the crowd.” Think of ways to connect with those you formally or informally lead, as that will increase trust.

Encourage: Someone uncharacteristically performing poorly, check to see if something else is going on.

Listen: If you are a doer like me, then this is hard. Slow down to listen at a level that you are not thinking about your next sentence, and people will know you care.

We are constantly influencing and constantly leading. What is one way you can connect, encourage, or listen better with those you lead today?

Beware of ‘one-ring’ calls - If it seems you can’t go a day without receiving unwanted phone calls, you’re not alone. Robocalls are worse than ever. Now, the Federal Com-

munications Commission warning of a new fraud tactic known as the “one-ring” scam.

Criminals dial and hang up quickly after the first ring so the recipient doesn’t have time to answer. If the scam goes according to plan, the victim will call back the mysterious number, inadvertently opening up expensive toll charges. Robocalls use the number 222, the nation code of the West African nation Mauritania. Hitting “ignore” on phone calls from foreign sources is an easy way to avoid robocalls, but not all scams are so obvious.

Another common strategy is call spoofing, which is when the callers call from a fake number, usually one that shares an area code with the recipient.

Stock of the Week - Fifth Third Bancorp (FITB) has $146 billion in assets, more than 1,200 full-service banking centers and a well-focused geographical footprint that includes Ohio, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, North Carolina, Tennessee, West Virginia and Georgia. But investors became worried about its recent $4.7 billion acquisition of Chicago-based MB Financial, concerned by the size of the deal and the price. That concern is misplaced. The acquisition, despite a somewhat high cost, will improve Fifth Third’s already solid market share, geographic footprint and customer base. The overreaction creates an opportunity for investors focusing on the longer term. They can collect a sizable dividend as economies of scale and the strength of Fifth Third’s mostly Midwestern operations make this high-quality regional bank even stronger. Revenue was $6.95 billion last year and will likely rise to $7.54 billion this year and $7.74 billion in 2020.

A brief guide to some of the area’s best patio dining options

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com With the arrival of pleasant weather and sunshine, local residents are ready to get outside and explore RESTAURANTS the area’s hottest dining spots. Several new restaurants and a host of familiar ones offer prime outdoor dining for the ultimate patio experience.

Here’s a brief guide to the best outdoor dining options in central Indiana.

CHIBA Address: 228 Park St., Westfield Menu options: Primarily sushi, owner Keith Dusko creates interesting combinations for sushi rolls, such as the Louisiana Purchase roll, which combines tempura chicken, green apples, yams and brie cheese.

Patio takeaways: Relaxing on Chiba’s patio is like visiting an oasis. Ferns and Edison lights are draped overhead, with potted plants dotting the pathways. An enclosed space in the back offers a slightly more intimate setting and protection from rain. It is an excellent area for private events. Cornhole boards are available near the front of the property with a beachfront view of Park Street for those wanting to play a game while they wait for their food to arrive.

SERENITY Address: 135 S. Main St., Zionsville Menu options: Serenity is a quaint little restaurant nestled on Zionsville’s famous brick street that serves brunch and lunch.

It offers English teas, sandwiches and more options with tasty, refreshing takes such as the Shrimp and Lobster BLT or the Fig and Walnut Salad.

Patio takeaways: Enjoy your English tea surrounded by greenery. Serenity’s patio is bordered by small plants and around a large evergreen tree. Umbrellas add a splash of color against black patio furniture, and the brick patio and climbing ivy evoke feelings of calm and allow you to take a breath of fresh air and relax while

you dine.

SUN KING SPIRITS Address: 351 Monon Trail, Carmel Menu options: Sun King Spirits is a good place to visit if you have picky eaters in the family because there are four different restaurants inside the food hall. Pizza, sandwiches, Mexican or pub food are all

available under the same roof.

Music for Miracles gives back Commentary by Jeff McDermott On April 28, for the sixth consecutive year, the students of Carmel High School’s Dance Marathon program PALLADIUM came to the Palladium to present their Music for Miracles event, a heartwarming and entertaining student talent show to benefit Riley Children’s Foundation.

I was honored again this year when the students invited me to offer welcoming remarks to the attendees, and it struck me how this annual event epitomizes the power of the arts to bring people together and heal bodies and souls. Music for Miracles perfectly blends the missions of the Center for the Performing Arts and CHS Dance Marathon. At the Center, we strive to engage and inspire the central Indiana community through enriching arts experiences. The Dance Marathon students – more than 100, in this case – say they do it all “For the Kids.” This magical evening embodied both missions.

We are fortunate in Carmel to have a school system and a community that value and invest in the arts and arts education. At Music for Miracles, the student

performers took the Palladium stage, one act after another, and wowed the audience of 800. Behind the scenes, other students worked side by side with the Center’s production team to coordinate lights, sound and staging. Adults, teens, artists and stage crew all collaborated.

As is tradition at Music for Miracles, the parent of a “Riley Kid” offered a testimonial.

James Dolan bravely recounted how his son, Jameson, was born with a life-threatening condition, but after months in Riley Hospital for Children’s neonatal unit and multiple surgeries by skilled physicians, he beat the odds and is now a happy and healthy 18-month-old. In fact, young Jameson attended the performance with his family and, as if on cue, let out a little yelp of happiness as his father talked about that journey to health.

It was a miraculous moment, music to the crowd’s ears.

Youth to play in ‘Little Mermaid’

Selections from Sonoma

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com

Commentary by Elizabeth Morse

Jack Clark sees a fun benefit of appearing to be swimming on stage.

“I think skating around on THEATER stage with Heelys will be so much fun, but I’m going to have to practice a lot so I don’t fall off the stage,” Clark said.

The Westfield Intermediate School fifthgrader will portray Flounder in Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre’s production of “The Little Mermaid,” May 23 to June 30.

“My little sisters (ages 5 and 8) sure are excited and I think it will be fun,” Clark said.

“They have been more excited about this show than any other show I’ve been in.”

Clark, 11, caught the acting bug early.

“I started acting when I was 7 years old and have not stopped since,” Clark said. “I got my start in one of my uncle’s (Craig Whitcombe) shows at The Biz (in Avon) and have had many amazing opportunities since then. Some of my favorites were playing Winthrop in ‘The Music Man’ with the Civic Theatre, Louis in ‘The King and I’ with Brebeuf (Preparatory School) and Christian in ‘Fun Home” with Ball State.”

Clark enjoys performing in front of an audience.

A new season is finally here! How about some new wine suggestions to go with spring? I’ve WINEderlust got a red, white and sparkler for you to kick off warm weather. Give these California dreamers a swirl: (Bubbles) Gloria Ferrer Sonoma County Brut, NV $18ish (I believe you can find this baby at Trader Joe’s for around $15). A gracious sparkler with great taste and a surprisingly low price. Bright spiced apple with golden pie crust flavors and a smidge of strawberry. Made from a blend of chardonnay and pinot noir grapes, she’s a spirited little sparkler by herself or with food. Serve with sushi or roasted chicken.

(White) 2018 Gundlach Bundschu Estate Vineyard Gewürztraminer, $25.

GB is one of my favorite wineries to visit in Sonoma. Its historic tasting room, like its wines, is steeped in tradition. Check it out if you find yourself visiting California wine country. This wine smells like fresh peaches and blooming jasmine, heady and fragrant. With 10 percent oak

Jack Clark is helped with his costume by costume designer Jill Kelly Howe. (Submitted photo)

Clark has only been in musicals so far.

“I have not been in a play, but if I was ever offered the opportunity, I would accept with much joy,” he said.

Sarah Daniels, who made her Beef & Boards debut as Sandy in “Grease” earlier this year, returns in the title role.

The musical focuses on King Triton’s youngest daughter, Ariel, who wants to leave her ocean home to explore the world above. When she rescues the human Prince Eric, Ariel can’t wait any longer and makes a bargain with Ursula, the sea witch, to trade her tail for legs.

aging it is a subtly round and rich glass with flavors reminiscent of Charentais* melons. Crisp and dry.

(Red) 2017 Benziger Family Winery, Monterey Pinot Noir. OK, so this might be my other favorite Sonoma winery. I was lucky to stay there as a guest many years ago. As a gardener, I loved visiting its vineyard and learning about biodynamic farming. Super-kind folks with a collection of consistently good wines.

This one has the lovely earthiness you’d hope for in pinot noir. It also tastes like strawberries. With a little warm spice in the mouth, this one’s a crowd-pleaser.

Perfect with grilled meats, $20 *Pro tip: Charentais is a French musk melon. Kind of like cantaloupe but better.

Cheers!

Blueprint for Improvement: Light and bright Carmel kitchen (Part II) Commentary by Larry Greene

THE SOLUTION

After

Before

1. Removal of the bulkheads immediately updated the overall feel of the space.

2. Appliances were relocated to allow for new, larger windows and more light.

3. The island was extended to provide additional storage, seating and prep space.

4. Decorative legs on the island give the impression of a table or piece of furniture.

5. Cabinetry in two finishes is a popular choice with today’s homeowners and lends visual interest to the kitchen.

6. Quartz countertops, a custom range hood, cabinets with wave-patterned glass inserts and a textured tile backsplash complete the stunning updates to this kitchen.

Next month we’ll share pictures of this home’s new pool pavilion, fire pit and outdoor kitchen!

To get started on your own remodeling project, visit us at caseindy.com or stop by one of our three locations.

Background: This home was built in 2004 in Carmel’s Valleybrook neighborhood. The owners fell in love with the location and layout of the home and knew they could make cosmetic updates to suit their style.

THE CHALLENGE The homeowners wanted to update several areas, so the projects were planned in phases. Once the interior was complete (including master bath, kitchen, two bathrooms and basement), the homeowners moved in and the exterior phase began.

Origins of bungee jumping Commentary

by Don Knebel Bungee jumping has become popular all around the world, TRAVEL but it started when a New Zealander emulated a dangerous South Sea rite of passage.

For untold generations, young men on Pentecost Island have jumped from tall wooden towers with one end of a vine tied to their ankles and the other end to the tower. The vines are sized so that the jumper’s fall is instantly stopped just as he hits the ground. Those surviving the ordeal are welcomed into the society as “men.”

In the mid-1980s, A.J. Hackett decided to duplicate this so-called “land diving” experience with a less abrupt finale. He created a super-elastic cord (called “bungy” in New Zealand) and began jumping off New Zealand bridges.

Finding the experience exhilarating and seeing its commercial potential, he jumped off the Eiffel Tower in 1987, landing him in jail and creating international interest. In 1988, he opened the world’s first commercial bungy jumping site on the Kawarau Gorge Suspension Bridge, 141 feet above the Kawarau River near Queenstown, New Zealand. The idea took off and adventure seekers from around the world began coming to New Zealand to literally jump off a bridge.

Today, many bungee jumping sites around the world are taller than the Kawarau Gorge site, but thousands of people each year come to where it all began. Paying about $150 per jump, jumpers choose whether to have the cord

sized to allow them to touch the water or to stop just above the water. Most begin the four-second or so free fall with their arms extended as if in flight, with first-time jumpers often screaming as they approach the river head first at 50 mph. When the jump is finished, the jumper is pulled from the air and hauled ashore on a small rubber boat.

Because the technology is so new, doctors are only using it for patients who could benefit the most, such as women with extremely dense breast tissue. But in time, some doctors believe tomosynthesis could replace the mammogram as it becomes more available.

•Packaging, serving and selling worldclass gourmet chocolates The future of breast imaging has arrived at St.Vincent Carmel Women’s Center, as doctors are now able to use a new technology that has a better rate of detecting early breast cancer in women with dense breast tissue than mammography.

Tomosynthesis, like a CT scan, takes images from multiple angles and uses computer processing to create a 3D image that a radiologist can use to look at a breast from various angles.

BUILDING OUR CO MMUNITY

“Instead of having one view, you have a series of slices,� says Dr. Janalyn Ferguson, a radiologist at St.Vincent. “It’s kind of like you’re looking at a breast like slices of bread.�

Recent studies have shown that tomosynthesis can increase the cancer detection rate by about 20 to 25 percent.

It also decreases the likelihood that patients will be called back for additional imaging, as the limited number of views provided by mammograms can cause normal overlapping tissue to appear cancerous.

With tomosynthesis, doctors can look at about 50 images per breast instead of just a few. It may take a little longer for patients to get results, but physicians believe the many benefits are worth the wait.

With breast cancer, early detection typically leads to a much better prognosis and less-invasive treatments. Tomosynthesis can lead to both of those benefits, and more.
