Cops Cycling for Survivors recently announced the ride schedule for its annual bicycle tour of LAW ENFORCEMENT Indiana.

The group, whose aim is to raise awareness and actively support survivors of Indiana law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty, will bike nearly 1,000 miles in 13 days in July to honor fallen law enforcement officers and their survivors.

In 2002, Cops Cycling for Survivors began with a ride to Washington, D.C., to honor fallen officers. The cyclists now ride through Indiana meeting with survivors of officers to support them as they continue to deal with the loss of loved ones. The group honors the more than 400 Indiana officers killed in the line of duty by reading a memorial for each officer during the tour.

In addition to memorializing officers, Cops Cycling for Survivors raises financial support for survivors. Proceeds from the annual ride provide line-of-duty death benefits for primary survivors as well as fund scholarships, camps and other avenues of support for survivors. The group also assists survivors as they work through years of court dates, including parole hearings

and appeals. More information and a donation page can be found at copscycling4survivors.com.

The 2019 Cops Cycling for Survivors truck also was recently unveiled. Each year, the truck honors officers killed in the line of duty from the previous year. This year’s truck is in special memory of Sgt. Ed Bollman, Boone County Deputy Jacob Pickett, Patrolman Rob Pitts, Officer David Tinsley and Sgt. Ben Bertram.

Dates and routes for the 2019 cycling rides are: Indianapolis to Lapel (July 8); Lapel to Bluffton (July 9); Bluffton to Angola (July 10); Angola to Mishawaka (July 11); Mishawaka to Merrillville (July 12); Merrillville to Kentland (July 13); Kentland to Terre Haute (July 14); Terre Haute to Princeton (July 15); Princeton to Huntingburg (July 16); Huntingburg to Jeffersonville (July 17); Jeffersonville to Madison (July 18); Madison to Bloomington (July 19); and Bloomington to Indianapolis (July 20).

Interested cyclists are encouraged to contact the group for more information on joining the ride for all or parts of the ride. Cyclists can include survivors, law enforcement officers and friends of law enforcement. For more, contact the group at copscyclingforsurvivors@gmail.com or at 812-727-0725.

GEIST • The Indiana Dept. of TransCONSTRUCTION portation is installing new flashers at Ind. 234 and Fortville Pike. The intersection is already equipped with a four-way stop and flashing red lights on top of the stop signs.

The new flashers also signaling the fourway stop will be installed above the middle of the intersection. Construction should be complete by late spring. No closures are expected.

• Indianapolis Dept. of Public Works is on Phase II of the 82nd Street Widening and Improvement Project. Phase II stretches from Lantern Road to Fall Creek Road. Lane closures may occur. The project includes resurfacing, addition and repair to sidewalks and curbs, new travel lanes, access ramps, drainage repairs and bridge maintenance.

Phase II construction began in the spring and should be complete by fall 2019.

FISHERS • The northwest side of Municipal Drive is for storm sewer work for the new Flexware Innovation and Fishers Ellipse buildings. The closure will take place on the north side of Municipal Drive from the Nickel Plate District Amphitheater west to the Fire Station parking lot. Motorists will still be able to access Municipal Drive from Lantern Road.

• Temporary lane restrictions are in effect between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. near and at the intersection of 136th Street and Cyntheanne Road. Restrictions are due to utility work for roundabout construction.

• Utility relocation is beginning on 96th Street as part of the road-widening project, resulting in periodic lane restrictions over the coming months.

• Drainage work for Ind. 37 is in progress. Construction vehicles will use the construction entrance on Lantern Road, between 126th Street and 131st Street, and may cause some short delays.

CARMEL • Range Line Road has reopened to northbound traffic but remains closed southbound between Eighth Street to just south of Clay Terrace for a drainage and stormwater project. Work is expected to be complete

by Memorial Day. • Work continues on the expansion of Cherry Creek Boulevard to complete the final phase to connect Hazel Dell Parkway to River Road. The project is expected to be complete by the end of July.

• A partial closure is expected at 96th Street and Gray Road for construction of a roundabout. The project was set to begin on or after May 20 with an anticipated closure of 75 days.

Financial center conducts golf outing

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com For the 21st consecutive year, the Financial Center First FUNDRAISER Credit Union will hold its annual golf outing to raise money for military families, feeding the hungry and financial literacy.

The outing is set for 10:30 a.m. June 5 at The Fort Golf Resort, 6002 N. Post Rd., Lawrence.

“We hold it right here at the Fort.

Mostly, it’s our vendors and members who play, but anyone in the community can participate,” FCFCU Vice President of Membership Development Dusty Simmons said. “It’s just a great opportunity to play at an extremely beautiful course and hang out with people who are in the Lawrence community and support local charities in the city as a part of community outreach.”

Registration begins at 9:30 a.m. The fee is $150 per player fee includes breakfast, lunch and dinner. After golf, there will be a silent auction. Simmons said the group’s goal is to raise more than $20,000. She said the fundraiser’s all-time high was $25,000, and last year the out-

ing raised $23,000.

The registration and sponsorship deadline is May 29.

Last year, a portion of proceeds helped launch a new youth scholarship program within the financial center. Other organizations benefiting from last year’s event included the Indiana Military Veterans Hall of Fame, the Association of the United States Army, the Lawrence Exchange Club, Fort Harrison Veterans, Mozel Sanders Thanksgiving Day Feast, St. Vincent de Paul Food Pantry and Midwest and Gleaners food banks.

Cornerstone Lutheran supports military with dinner

FISHERS ARTS COUNCIL AWARDS ARTISTS

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com

Sandy Hughey is passionate about Cornerstone Lutheran GIVING BACK Church’s military ministry program.

“I feel like we need to give back to the men and women in the Armed Forces,” said Hughey, whose late husband, Ed, was a Korean War veteran. “I feel it’s an important part of our church.”

Sandy Hughey, a Carmel resident, was the coordinator of the event that was conducted at the Camp Atterbury USO Facility May 18, which was Armed Forces Day. Hughey said the volunteers served more than 200 soldiers during the two-hour dinner. The Boomer Gang donated their time for a 2 1/2-hour musical performance.

“It was very well-received by our troops,” Hughey said. “They just kept thanking us for doing it.”

One soldier told Hughey it was a nice break from the usual Army fare.

City Barbecue catered the dinner of pulled pork, buns, baked beans and macaroni and

cheese. The ministry supplied veggie trays and church members baked 200 assorted desserts. McAlister’s Deli in Fishers donated lemonade and sweet and unsweetened tea.

“It was a church effort because we asked church members to write 200 letters of gratitude to the soldiers,” Hughey said.

Josh Schumann, a church member and senior at Carmel High School, helped get students to write more than 150 letters of appreciation for the military members.

There was a cornhole challenge and volleyball competition.

The military ministry, headed by Hughey, supports active, reserve, retired and homeless veterans. Her group provides care packages each month to the USO in Afghanistan.

“We have purchased and refurbished more than 50 used bicycles for Hoosier Veterans Assistance Foundation in Indianapolis,” Hughey said.

There are 23 members on the church’s military ministry team from the Carmel main campus and the Fishers site. A smaller Cornerstone Lutheran church started in Indianapolis this year.

All Gave Some Some Gave All Holly Luenemann and her husband Juan Carlos Buitron, along with their children Ethen and Kristen Luenemann, admire the student artwork at Fishers City Hall as part of the 2019 Fishers Arts Council Awards. The awards recognize exceptional art by students from Fishers and Hamilton Southeastern high schools.

ON THE GO New bus line to increase transportation options for Lawrence residents

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Greater Lawrence Chamber of Commerce President Trace Yates COVER STORY understands the importance of connectivity and how it relates to economic and community development, which is why IndyGo Project Development Planner Austin Gibble presented on the new IndyGo Purple Line at the chamber’s May 9 Breakfast Connections event.

The Purple Line is a bus rapid transit service that will travel from downtown Indianapolis to 38th Street, then cut across to Post Road, where it will complete its route at Fort Benjamin Harrison in Lawrence. Stations will be spaced between one-third of a mile to 1 mile apart. There will be 30 total stations, including 22 two new ones being constructed.

Eight already exist. The Purple Line will span 14.6 miles.

“BRT lines get a lot of attention because those are the shiny new, fast-transit systems, but it’s a lot of things,” Gibble said. “It

takes all the elements of light rail, (such as) the stations, boarding, ticketing, but then you take away the tracks. It functionally operates that same way. It’s fast, has dedicated lanes, and these allow them to operate in a really high form of reliability because it’s not affected by traffic.”

Sixty percent of IndyGo’s Red Line route is comprised of dedicated lanes. The Purple Line is 90 percent and the Blue Line is 70 percent.

Gibble said construction on the Purple Line should begin in 2020 and be complete by the end of 2021 or early 2022.

Gibble said buses will arrive in intervals of 10 minutes or less.

“It’s comfortable. It takes all the elements of a rail service and applies it to a cost-effective bus,” he said.

Gibble said BRT lines bring more to communities than transportation.

“The Purple Line has so much added value with infrastructure,” he said. “Post Road has no sidewalks, no drainage, and that’s part of why 38th Street is so bad. The Purple Line will add 6.5 miles of continuous sidewalk on

38th Street and Post Road.”

Gibble said nearly half of the Purple Line’s $140 million cost will go to infrastructure improvements, such as curbs, drainage, sidewalks and resurfacing. The rest will be spent on right-of-way acquisition and transit

construction.

Gibble said the Purple Line is expected to increase the amount of accessible jobs by 4,300 percent.

“It’s a dramatic improvement to that kind of accessibility and connectivity,” he said.

“It takes all the elements of light rail – the stations, boarding, ticketing - but then you take away the tracks. It functionally operates that same way. It’s fast, has dedicated lanes, and these allow them to operate in a really high form of reliability because it’s not affected by traffic.” – Austin Gibble LOCAL THOUGHTS Greg Hahn, a partner at Bose, McKinney and Evans, which sponsored the Breakfast Connections meeting, spoke prior to the presentation. In terms of public transportation, he said Marion County is far behind what it should be.

“We are very pleased to be part of this. We have had a long connection with Lawrence, with the city and city council and redevelopment commission,”

Hahn said. “The Red Line is moving right along and opens Sept. 1, so we feel good about that, and of course the Purple Line is started. The dedicated lines are part of the mobility we are trying to do in Marion County. We are behind the ball, so to speak. We have a lot of other communities our size and even smaller (with better transportation).”

ESSAY Measured rage

LETTER

No crosscountry dress code

Commentary by Terry Anker Why is it that certain things seem to disproportionately upset us? Little annoying matters, like getting the wrong order at the drive-thru or that person driving the car in front of us who stops without warning before entering a roundabout, seem to have the magic power to ruin our morning, day, or even week.

Maybe we are just being empathetic. If others were showing signs of fear, would we suddenly be afraid? If they were laughing, would we find ourselves doing the same? If so, is it such a surprise that we’d likewise reflect the unfriendliness of others? Still, many infractions delivering the most egregious irritation are blithely inert. The perpetrator has no idea that they are disturbing us or, sigh, even that we exist. It might be exactly that final element, that they are indifferent to our presence, which brings the most acute retribution from us. How can they fail to acknowledge us? We are good people. We have had a tough day.

Who do they think they are? We’ve waited our turn. We’ve followed the rules! They are terrible people!

In a swelling torrent, indignation transforms into rage. It follows that our sense of self is too quickly transferred to others. As such, the slightest transgression elicits wrath. Is it possible, just possible, that we are simply turning an inconvenience into a problem? The moment required to comply with the officious TSA airport gorilla is inconsequential to the hours spent once they put us on the do-not-fly list. The tiresomeness of stopping behind the school bus pales to the shame of hitting a child while we are self-absorbed with our own tribulations. Isn’t life complicated enough without turning molehills Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC. You may email him at terry@ youarecurrent.com.

Dance mom days revival Commentary by Danielle Wilson Friends, I have so much to share this week I don’t even know where to start. The storm that took out two of our trees and left baby raccoons stranded in our gaHUMOR rage and bathroom wall (another raccoon story!)? The Mother’s Day debacle that caused me to seriously question the way I’ve raised my little angels (not one card, flower or cleaned dish!)? Or the fact that I am hosting a graduation party this Thursday and never sent out invitations (although I did order a cake!)? Worthy fodder, for sure. But honestly, all of these pale in comparison to this little tidbit: My daughter is returning to competitive dance! After a year-long hiatus, she has decided to unearth her jazz shoes and give it another go. The best part? I will be a dance mom again! And I’m not being facetious. I’m only somewhat ashamed to say that I truly missed living vicariously through my tiny dancer and could not be more thrilled to be

headed back into the fray of sequined booty shorts, dressing-room drama and considerable financial strain.

That still sounds snarky, but I’m speaking my truth! During her five years of competition dance, I got to know the other moms fairly well, and relying on Facebook to share in their experiences was tougher than I imagined it would be. So, when my daughter expressed similar feelings a few months back, I secretly hoped she’d change her mind. And she did!

We have until the fall before life becomes exciting again, but rest assured, friends, great stories are on the horizon (presumably without villainous raccoons and degenerate offspring)!

Peace out.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK “My fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.”

-John F. Kennedy

Editor, Why do teenage girls and boys get to run up and down Olio and throughout Fishers neighborhoods half-naked during crosscountry practice? There appears to be no dress code enforcement outside of the classroom. The teenagers, some as young as 14 years old, are running in a schoolsponsored activity while not following the dress code. Girls in their sports bras and boys without shirts. Last year, there appeared to be an adult male running with his shirt off with the girls in their sports bras.

Students are required to buy a uniform and wear it to gym class – so why not the same rule be applied to cross-country practice?

By allowing the girls and boys to run without even a light shirt on, the coaches and administrators are allowing our teenagers to be sexualized. Surely, in our great community of Fishers a business could sponsor a simple T-shirt or sleeveless top for our cross-country teams?

Fiona McKinley, Fishers

Gifts sure to please Dad? Commentary by Dick Wolfsie Mary Ellen never gives me anything for Father’s Day. She explains, “You’re not my father; you’re Brett’s father.”

“But I always give you a gift for Mother’s Day!” “Come on, Dick. That’s a totally different situation.”

This will be the 32nd consecutive year I’ve fallen for that.

I have hope for this year to be different, so I’ve been skimming through the Father’s Day edition of the Hammacher Schlemmer gift catalog. Here are some other actual choices: • The Campfire Beer Caramelizer: You heat this rod in a flame, dunk it in the beer and it “caramelizes residual sugars, mellows the flavor and creates a rich creamy head.” That sounds smooth, but — and I’m no expert — doesn’t it make the beer warm? I can’t be the first person to ask this question.

• The Thin Kangaroo Leather Wallet: I’m sorry if this makes me appear callous, but it is ironic that the only animal that could actually carry a wallet, they

made him into one.

• The Central Park Bench: This is a facsimile of the park benches that are still scattered throughout this iconic public area in Manhattan. Comes with metal slats, arched armrests, six squirrels and 15 pigeons.

• The Pocket Pac-Man Game: A handheld device brings all the fun of this classic ’80s game to the palm of your hand. Marketing is targeted to folks who still have flip phones and won’t part with their AOL accounts.

• The Pace Reacting Ultraslim Treadmill: This fitness device has all the bells and whistles found on every good workout machine: heartbeat monitoring, speed control, distance read-outs and calorie counter.

According to a recent study by SmartAsset, a financial technology comECONOMY pany, Hamilton County ranks second on a list of Indiana counties that invest in the local economy.

Hendricks County ranked just ahead of Hamilton County, which was followed Boone, Hancock, Warrick, Johnson, Tippecanoe, Monroe, Clinton and LaGrange counties to round out the top 10.

“Investment in local economic expansion can produce significant improvements in quality of life for communities,” SmartAsset stated in an explanation of its study. “Hamilton County ranked among the top places in Indiana due to a strong showing in each of

the factors considered, including business growth, GDP growth, new building permits and federal funding.”

Four major factors decided the rankings, including the change in the number of businesses established in each county during a three-year period, showing whether or not people were starting new business ventures in the area; GDP growth; investment and development in the local residential real estate market, calculating the number of new building permits per 1,000 homes; and finally, federal funding received by each county.

DISPATCH Stock of the Week - Cardinal Health Inc. (CAH) provides medical products and pharmaceuticals to hospitals, health-care systems, pharmacies, surgical centers, clinical labs and physicians’ offices. It is in a sector that has come under political fire for health-care costs, but high prices are not its business model. The company is a distributor, so it has very high revenue - $136.8 billion last fiscal year and likely $144.5 billion this fiscal year and $151 billion in fiscal 2020 -- but razor-thin profit margins that may drop to 0.9 percent next year. Further EThe firm regularly repurchases shares, making each remaining share

more valuable. It had 433 million outstanding shares in 2003 and now has 295 million, with the share total dropping every year. Cash flow this year should be about $8.50/share, so the stock is priced at only about six times cash flow. The dividend of $1.91/share/yr., recently yielding 3.96 percent appears quite secure and has tripled in the last decade. And Cardinal Health recently formed a partnership with CVS Caremark to source more generic drugs jointly, which should help boost its business while reducing costs for patients.

Artistic director Hancock puts his most personal pieces into one performance

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Gregory Hancock has found a way to connect his three most personal pieces.

“Until There is No More,” DANCE “Every Moment … Every Day” and “The Violin Under the Bed” will be part of Gregory Hancock Dance Theatre’s performance at 7 p.m. June 7 and 8 at The Tarkington at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel.

This is the second time each piece has been done, but in the past, all were at separate times.

“Every Moment … Every Day,” is about Hancock’s grief over his mother Florence Marie Hancock’s death at age 88 in September 2014. His mother was still working full time at St. Vincent in medical records department.

“Every moment of every day I miss my mom,” said Hancock, executive artistic director of GHDT. “I miss her presence.

People don’t understand grief. They think it’s something you deal with and move on. In the piece, I use a truck loaded with rocks that the dancer drags around, which is the essence of me, (and) carries across the stage. It’s something that is present with you all the time and you learn to deal with. You move forward because you have to. I have to keep doing my work. I have to keep paying my bills. When you lose someone significant like that in your life, you don’t move on from it.

“My mother was way more than my mother. She was my teacher, my spiritual advisor, my business partner, my travel companion. Her absence created such a void, personally and professionally.”

The opening piece, “Until There is No More,” is about Hancock’s battle with kidney cancer in 2014. In August, he will be cancer-free for five years.

“It’s about facing your mortality, your fears, your ills,” said Hancock, whose father, Norman, died when he was a teenager.

The piece about his mother is touching, funny and hopeful, he said.

Abigail Lessaris, (sitting) watches as Taylar Green dances in “The Violin Under the Bed.” (Photo by Sophie Doell)

“It’s more a celebration of her and things she liked,” Hancock said. “She was a great softball player, so there is a softball piece.”

When his mother was young, her large family in Kansas was poor. At 12, she started cleaning houses to help pay bills.

The house owner had a violin under her bed and she told Hancock’s mother not to touch the violin.

“My mother would pull it out under the bed and just look at it and imagined playing it because her family couldn’t afford to give her lessons,” he said. “Many years later, I bought her a violin for Christmas.

She never learned to play it. She tried and stuff, but she put it under her bed. The point was her life had come to the point she could have a violin under her bed.”

Abigail Lessaris portrays his mother’s spirit in two shows. In “Every Moment …

Every Day,” she has a scene with fellow company dancer Taylar Green playing Hancock’s spirit.

“It’s a special moment everyone dreams about to be able to feel that person one

last time,” Lessaris said. “Maybe have that closure. I touched Taylar’s shoulder and there is that feeling you are going to be OK. You can do this without me because I’ve prepared you for this.’ ‘Violin Under the Bed’ is more a celebration for the life Florence led. It’s about her meeting Gregory’s father, playing softball, her love of travel.

It’s a bright piece that has beautiful music.

Even if you didn’t know Florence, it’s easy to get lost in the color and music.”

Green can relate to the stories of grief.

“I lost my sister tragically (at age 22) and I still go through these emotions all the time,” Green said. “For me, I am portraying Gregory, but it’s also a journey for me every time.”

Isaac Jones, a dancer with the Dayton Ballot, previously played in “The Hunchback of Notre Dame” for GHDT. Jones takes on Hancock’s essence in the opening piece and his father’s spirit in the final piece.

“When you lose somebody, it’s important to remember the beauty and love they brought into life,” Jones said.

Fork + Ale House

Commentary by Anna Skinner Address: 350 Veterans Way Suite 150, Carmel What to get: Beer-braised beef sandwich Price: $12 Anna’s take: Fork + Ale House is one of Carmel’s newest small-batch breweries and eateries, nestled off the Monon Trail on Veterans Way. I sampled several menu options.

Many of the recipes originate from owner Amy Long or her family. The beer-braised beef sandwich combines beer-braised beef, giardiniera peppers, fried onions, arugula, mozzarella cheese and a creamy horseradish on a hoagie roll. Try it with a side of coleslaw.

I also tried the smoked-then-fried wings ($10), which are tossed in the house buffayaki — a fusion of buffalo and teriyaki – sauce. Other sauce options also are available. Fork + Ale House offers a variety of

signature pizzas and calzones, and there’s a pizza special for pizza by the slice. The marinara is another heirloom recipe, as is the veggie burger ($10), made with quinoa and black beans and topped with arugula, feta cheese, avocado and chipotle aioli.

Suggested pairings: Fork + Ale House has four brews made in-house, all of which are $5 per pint. I would go for the Beehive Blond, but there also is an IPA, a brown ale and a wheat. In addition to beer, Fork + Ale House offers a variety of wines and specialty cocktails.

Behind bars: Effen Good Get it at Bar Louie, Carmel Ingredients: 2 oz. Effen Cucumber Vodka, 1 oz. fresh lime juice, .75 oz. Monin Agave Nectar, 5 mint leaves, 5 cucumber slices Directions: Add all ingredients into a mixing glass, fill with ice and shake vigorously for 10 seconds. Strain into a chilled martini glass.

Farmers don’t own market Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt I love this time of year for many reasons, but perhaps my favorite thing about early summer is the GRAMMAR GUY farmers market.

But today’s big question is: Does “farmers market” need an apostrophe in it? We have three contending spellings vying for the top spot: farmers market, farmer’s market and farmers’ market. Which is it?

Farmers market is what the AP Stylebook considers a “descriptive phrase” (as opposed to a possessive phrase). In general, the farmers do not own the market, nor does one sole farmer. And, as far as I know, they’re not selling farmers at the market. It’s a market for farmers, not a market that belongs to farmers.

Use an apostrophe when “of” would be an accurate longer form possessive phrase. For example: Newton’s law. This is a law of Newton. Victoria’s Secret is a secret of, or belonging to, Victoria.

For descriptive phrases, you don’t need an apostrophe when “for” or “by” are accurate longer form phrases. For example: Colts quarterback is a quarterback for

the Colts. A teachers college is a college for teachers. In these cases, the plural noun (farmers, Colts or teachers) function as adjectives to describe what kind of market, quarterback, or school you’re discussing.

Now, for some exceptions (because English is fun)! Descriptive phrases such as women’s rugby get an apostrophe because the plural “women” doesn’t end in the letter “s.” Other examples include children’s hospital (the children certainly don’t own the hospital) and men’s restroom.

As long as my local farmers market is always well-stocked with corn-related items, I don’t think I’ll complain if I see a rogue apostrophe on its sign. Besides, apostrophes are just commas giving high fives. I do, however, personally think the term “farmers market” as a descriptive phrase does not require an apostrophe.

Gravesite of JFK and his wife, Jacqueline Kennedy. (Photo by Don Knebel)

Re-igniting the eternal flame Commentary by Don Knebel John F. Kennedy, born 102 years ago May 29, is one of two presidents (William Howard Taft is the other) buried in ArTRAVEL lington National Cemetery. He is the only president whose grave is marked by a so-called “eternal flame.”

After President Kennedy was assassinated Nov. 22, 1963, his wife Jacqueline selected his gravesite on a hillside just below Arlington House, which the president had admired just months earlier. The day before the funeral, Mrs. Kennedy asked that the grave be forever marked by a flame like the one at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier beneath the Arc de Triomphe in Paris.

Engineers hastily connected a tiki torch to a propane tank, concealing the equipment beneath evergreen branches. To accommodate growing crowds, the body of the president was later moved 20 feet downhill and a more permanent flame mechanism installed after cemetery officials concluded that the gravesite was not subject to the rules of Arlington National Cemetery that banned such devices. The new mechanism

was set in a round fieldstone from Cape Cod and included a lighter to reignite the flame whenever it goes out, which it does from time to time, usually because of the wind.

Despite the re-ignition mechanism, the flame has been manually re-lighted on at least three occasions, the first when a group of school children unintentionally doused it with holy water. In 1967, a heavy rain flooded the flame and the re-igniter.

In 2013, the re-igniter failed and had to be replaced, requiring the flame to be extinguished after first being used to light a temporary flame nearby.

After her death in 1994, Jacqueline Kennedy was buried beside her husband, joining two of their children who died shortly after birth. Thousands of people still visit their gravesite every year, some attracted by its eternal flame.

DISPATCHES Keep bananas fresh — Did you know that bananas are the only fruit that never faces an insect attack? But it contains high amounts of reacting agents that makes it prone to fast decaying. Strangely, aluminum foil can slow down its rotting process by breaking the air contact. A deposit of aluminum around its top stem and the ticking clock of its lifetime will get slow. The foil will slow the reaction so much that you can store the fruit, not for hours but days.

Keep honey clear — Believe it or not, honey is the only nonperishable food substance, so don’t get rid of it when it crystallizes or becomes cloudy. Microwave on medium heat, in 30-second increments, to make it clear again.

The future of breast imaging has arrived at St.Vincent Carmel Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;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.

910-6990

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.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Instead of having one view, you have a series of slices,â&#x20AC;? says Dr. Janalyn Ferguson, a radiologist at St.Vincent. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kind of like youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re looking at a breast like slices of bread.â&#x20AC;?

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.
