TSA launches remote screening pilot program at Boston Logan International Airport

On June 1, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) launched its latest initiative to enhance the traveler experience under the leadership of President Trump and Secretary Mullin: a first-in-the-nation remote screening option for passengers flying out of Boston Logan International Airport.

In partnership with the Massachusetts Port Authority, TSA has introduced this innovative pilot program with an inaugural remote terminal in Framingham, Massachusetts. Passengers flying out of Boston Logan on JetBlue or Delta flights between 5:30 a.m. and 4 p.m. are currently eligible for this new experience.

Instead of dealing with traffic at the airport, congestion at the checkpoint, and limited parking, these passengers can instead park at Framingham, check in, go through security, and take a bus directly to the secure side of their terminal.

Lorraine Cunningham of Haddonfield, New Jersey, passed away peacefully on May 28, 2026, surrounded by her loving family. Born in Philadelphia to the late Thomas and Dorothy Cunningham, Lorraine devoted her life to her family and her community.

She also took great pride in caring for her grandchildren, cherished her time at the beach, and was a devoted Phillies fan who loved cheering on her team. 

Lorraine is lovingly remembered by her children, Heather, James (and his wife, Lottie), and Bethann; her cherished grandchildren, Connor, Luke, and Chloe; and her brother, Thomas (and his wife, Sue), her sisters, Mary and Nancy, and her niece and nephews, whom she loved very much.

A celebration of her life will be held on Tuesday, June 9, 2026 at Christ the King Church, 200 Windsor Ave., Haddonfield, NJ 08033.  Family and friends are welcome to attend.  Visitation will take place from 10 AM to 11 AM with Mass of Christian Burial to follow at 11 AM.  Interment private.

Doctor to Mark 75 Years with Type 1 Diabetes at 40th Annual Golf Fundraiser for T1D

When Donald “Doc” Meltzer, MD, was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes (T1D) on his 12th birthday in January 1951, managing the disease looked very different than it does today.

There were no insulin pumps, no continuous glucose monitors, and no way to check blood sugar levels at home. Instead, patients relied on urine testing, reusable glass syringes, and a daily routine filled with uncertainty.

Today, 75 years later, the Voorhees resident is still thriving.

Meltzer’s remarkable journey reflects both the challenges of living with T1D and the extraordinary advances in treatment, technology, and research that have transformed diabetes care over the past seven decades.
