| 0:00.0 | This is National Works Zone Awareness Week. |
| 0:02.5 | I'm a victim of being ran over by a semi-while flagging. |
| 0:05.4 | The person wasn't paying attention, and they hit me with their vehicle. |
| 0:08.3 | I've seen an accident where we were the first people to walk up, and that picture will never leave my mind. |
| 0:14.1 | I've seen the people get hit before. |
| 0:15.7 | It's been horrible. |
| 0:16.5 | Construction zones on roadways and bridges are more than just cones and equipment. |
| 0:20.7 | They're the workplace for thousands of dedicated union laborers. Everybody has a family that they need to get back home to, so please just pay attention to us out here while we're working. We all have family, and I know it's a pain in the ass. We're trying to make the roads better for y'all. We're doing this for everyone. We're hardworking Hoosiers, just like you, and we all want to make it home safely. People would just take a couple seconds to pay attention. Be aware where we're at, where the cone zones are at.

| 1:27.2 | biopsy tests. And they're using AI to help spot |
| 1:32.0 | some cancer signals in the blood. Researchers are now able to analyze tiny fragments of tumor DNA |
| 1:39.5 | circulating in the blood stream. This is a new blood test and it's called Mercury and it's reportedly identifying 13 different |
| 1:48.4 | cancers with about an 87% accuracy rate. |
| 1:54.0 | And that's up from all previous tests. |
| 1:57.6 | And the long term goal is to have a single blood test that can detect many different |
| 2:02.7 | types of cancer early enough for effective treatment. I'm excited about this. Coming from a guy that |
