Handheld scanners debut at Noblesville Kroger

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com

In an effort to continue to maximize time for shoppers, Kroger is bringing the Scan, Bag and Go concept to Indiana. The Kroger at 14800 Hazel Dell Crossing near Noblesville and technology Carmel border is the first of 12 stores in Indiana to use the device. The system officially debuted April 19. Soon, it likely will be introduced at the Fishers stores at 9799 E. 116th St. and 116th St. and Allisonville Road. Another one will launch shortly thereafter at 172 Logan St. in Noblesville. The new system allows customers to use a wireless handheld scanner or the Scan, Bag, Go app on their smartphones. One may pay on a mobile phone with the app. Clear bags and reusable bags are available. “You can scan your Kroger Plus card and from there you can take it through the store and purchase any items you want,” Kroger/ Central Division media spokesman Eric Halvorson said. “You ultimately end up at the self-checkout to pay for it.” When a shopper gets to the checkout line, he or she points the scanner up and it shows everything already scanned. “Everything is in the bag already so all you have to do is swipe your credit card,” Halvorson said. “The only thing that might be a hitch is if you buy alcohol, because that will have to be verified by a Kroger associate.” Shoppers can monitor prices and scan cou-

pons as they shop. Cincinnati Kroger stores have used the system for seven years, division front end manager Dorathy Vise said. “They’ve been working all the bugs out

of it,” Vise said. “We’re going to roll out 500 stores across the country, and next year another 500 stores.” Halvorson said no one will lose a job because of the technology.

Hackathon benefits public safety in Fishers

Experts in the technological field joined forces during the third annual AT&T’s Civic Hackathon for 24 hours in Fishers April 20 and 21. Prior to the event, AT&T Indiana President Bill Soards, Mayor Scott Fadness, Fishers Police Dept. Chief Mitch Thompson and former Boston Police Commissioner Ed Davis spoke on the importance of innovation within public safety and on AT&T’s involvement with building out the FirstNet platform. FirstNet is the nation’s first public safety communications platform dedicated to first responders. “FirstNet will strengthen and modernize public safety’s communication capabilities, enabling them to coordinate and respond more quickly, safely and effectively,” Soards said. “That’s why we’re here today, to reimagine public safety communications. We’ve got a fantastic event that’s

going to be full of collaboration, a 24-hour event with nearly 800 attendees and participants.” The Hackathon brought technologicalsavvy participants together to work on developing a solution to a typical problem experienced within public safety. The solution could be in the form of a mobile application, web platform or other area. Thompson said FPD wasn’t sure what it was getting into when it first heard of the event, but the department quickly embraced the idea. “Fishers is really excited to participate in this event,” Thompson said. “So much of law enforcement is focused on going to law enforcement training and learning law enforcement things. This is yet another opportunity where we can get outside our comfort zone and begin to realize the technology and the great minds out there that think a little bit different to help us reach the solutions that we need to get to.”

Current cartoonist wins from SPJ By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com

Current Publishing cartoonist Tim Campbell has done it again. Campbell, a Carmel resident, AWARD won the best editorial cartoon for the fifth consecutive year and seventh overall at the Society of Professional Journalists’ 2017 Best of the Best in Indiana Journalism banquet April 27. The winning cartoon was on the situation in Puerto Rico following Hurricane Maria. He also received third place in the same category. “What I’m honored most about this award is that it’s judged by professional journalists from states outside of Indiana,” Campbell said. “I’m assuming this is done to eliminate any bias towards publications or individuals. It’s simply about the work itself. I do enter one or two other national contests each year, but the Indiana SPJ award is special because I’m a Hoosier by birth (from Indianapolis). I believe the values this state and my family have taught me is on occasion reflected in my work.” Campbell began doing cartoons for Current in Carmel the second week it published in 2006.

Prudential Financial and the National Association of Secondary School Principals recently recognized three Hamilton Southeastern Schools students for volunteer service in the community. Vani Sharma, a sixth-grade student at Sand Creek Intermediate, received the Prudential Spirit of Community Award. Rahil Thanawala of Fishers High School and Olivia Keith of HSE High School were both recognized as distinguished finalists. Sharma does a lot of her volunteer work at Riley Hospital for Children, where she was inspired to give back after her sister was a patient there. “I decided to do that because years ago, my sister was in Riley Hospital and we couldn’t get anything to eat outside of the hospital, and there are lots of volunteers there that served meals,” Sharma said. “We were very thankful and grateful for that. We decided that after my sister got discharged, it was our turn to give back to the community, so I started serving meals at

Riley Hospital.” Sharma also entertained the patients and their families by playing instruments with her friends at the hospital. Sharma said she tries to get to the hospital once a month, and she also participates in other community service projects. She reads to young people at Barnes & Noble, picks up litter at local parks and organizes shoe drives. “I am very grateful for the award I got because I never expected to get it, and I’m very excited and happy,” she said.

Geist Half Marathon targets kids

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com The Geist Half Marathon is doing its part to encourage local cover story youth to exercise. “We really formed this 11 years ago to promote health and fitness,” Geist Half Marathon Executive Director Aprill Shelburne said. “We’ve since promoted that to mental health and fitness across school systems and youth. Our entire idea is to introduce kids at a young age to walking, running, some sort of endurance event so they get that feeling of not only the endorphins going but achievement of going across the finish line.” At last year’s race, with options of a 5K, a 10K and a half marathon, 1,800 of the 4,800 participants, or approximately 38 percent, were kids under 18. Many were students from Hoosier Road Elementary and their families, thanks to Shannyn Miller’s involvement. Miller now works as a wellness teacher at Hamilton Southeastern Intermediate and Junior High School but previously taught at Hoosier Road. Miller became involved in Geist Marathon’s mission of youth health in 2008, when the fundraising race was founded. She organized a training program for Hoosier Road Elementary third- and fourthgraders before eventually expanding it to grades K-4.

“I thought, ‘Oh, what a great opportunity to give kids a chance to do something in our own backyard,” Miller said. “A lot of 5Ks are not geared towards kids.” ADDING THE 10K Miller said by getting kids running at an early age, they are more likely to continue the activity as they grow. A major reason the 10K race was added to the Geist Half Marathon was to provide a more challenging option for experienced young runners. “A big chunk of participants is kids, and the majority of those are in the 5K,” Shelburne said. “The reason why we introduced the 10K a few years ago was a lot of kids grew up running the 5K in elementary, but when they got to junior high, they were looking for longer distances.” In the past, the race has served as a fundraiser for Hamilton Southeastern and Lawrence Township education foundations. In past years, the two schools split the proceeds. This year, the group is taking a different approach. The foundations will still receive the funds, but they will be divided by district participation instead of an even split. Last year, each district foundation received $10,000. ST. VINCENT STEPS UP FOR WELLNESS St. Vincent is sponsoring the race and boasts a large contingent of employee participants. Last year, St. Vincent’s 400 associ-

ate participants accounted for 10 percent of registants for the series of Geist Half Marathon races. Lactation consultant Jennifer Hubbard began running when she was diagnosed with high blood pressure. She has since lost 140 pounds. “The hospital offered to pay for the race for any of the associates, which is huge,” she said. “I’ve run the Geist Half Marathon last year and did the 10K before that. Running has been a huge part of me getting healthy and getting that under control.” Hubbard trains with the Fishers Running Club and plans to run the Geist Half Marathon this year. The Geist Half Marathon will be May 19. For more, or to register, visit geisthalf.com.

Surviving my annual headache

o b s e r v ation

Evening in Paris

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Commentary by Terry Anker It was an Evening in Paris. This time the City of Lights dutifully was replicated in the Culinary Arts Center on Ivy Tech’s bustling Indianapolis Campus. Replete with the Eifel Tower, tasty treats, comfy cafes and a noted cabaret singer (thanks to local standout talent Gail Payne), the festive nature of the event belied the intentionality of the cause underlying it. Celebrating its 30th anniversary, the gala funds study-abroad opportunities for culinary students to both the storied French capital and to its vaunted surrounding farms, wineries and producers. Home to and originators of some of the finest and best-produced food in the accumulation of western culture, the student travelers are steeped in the techniques and trades that bring life to the notable comforting provincial and elegant urban menus. Still, it may be the more existential effects of the trip that leave the longest impression. Many of the explorers will have never before possessed a passport, flown on an airplane, or even left the safe confines of central Indiana. While in Provence, sitting around the kitchen table listening to a farmer extol the virtues of his fromage, do those assembled learn as much about themselves, and the world in which they live, as they do about the nuanced distinction between the diets of the cows to produce the raw milk for the product? Can it be that Ivy Tech Community College, and its many supporters, are opening eyes at the very same time they are pleasing palates? If we find that we have access to a new world, food or otherwise, don’t we take a bit more ownership in it? Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC.

R EADE R ’ S V I E W Janus thanks Current Editor, I wanted to let you know I have had so many positive comments about our fundraising breakfast held (April 20). This breakfast had the most guests we have ever had at any fundraising event we’ve held! I had so many people call to register because they either saw the ads or read the articles about the breakfast in Current. I want to take a moment to let you know how much your support of Janus

is appreciated. Your sponsorship of the breakfast is one of the reasons for our success and enabled Janus to apply all of the donations made the day of the event to the services and programs we are able to offer our clients. I look forward to a continued relationship with you in the future. Kindest regards, Debbie Laird, senior vice president of development at Janus Developmental Services

I occasionally experience migraine headaches, maybe one every few years. My last was actually in 2014. Since I’m not a regular sufferer, they tend to sneak up humor on me before I realize what’s happening, and usually at inopportune moments. Here’s what went down recently. I’d just finished a triathlon in Muncie and was trying to figure out why I wasn’t enjoying the typical post-race euphoria. I was tired, sure, but I had no desire for a Big Mac (my usual self-congratulatory meal), nor was I excited to call Doo with the details (lost swimsuit, broken sunglasses, knocking over two bike racks). As I stood in line for a pizza slice (it was free!), I noticed my vison going wonky. I could still see, but there was a definite blind spot in my right eye. It cleared after maybe 10 minutes, and I headed for my car. As soon as I hit I-69, a dull headache began along with a bit of nausea. By the time I got to the Anderson exit, I was desperately pressing a cold water bottle to my head while dry-heaving into a Meijer grocery bag. I pulled off the highway, parked at the Steak ‘n Shake and crawled into the back seat to wait out the pain. I neither turned off the car nor locked the doors, but luckily, no one seemed to notice or care that a seemingly unoccupied minivan sat running for an hour. Once home, I spent the rest of the day on the couch, “recovering.” Not from the race, mind you, but from the migraine. At least I should be good for another few years! Peace out.

When push comes to shove Commentary by Dick Wolfsie Sunday nights are stressful in the Wolfsie household because there are just so many great programs we both humor want to see.To deal with this problem, my wife has a kind of spread sheet where she charts each show and then figures out how we can accomplish our viewing goals without missing anything. “Dick, I’m going to tape ‘Madam Secretary,’ but we’ll watch ‘Homeland’ live, and I can also record that mini-series about John Paul Getty. Then we can DVR ‘Billions,’ unless we can get it ‘On Demand’ Monday.” “OK, Mary Ellen, why can’t we record ‘Homeland’ later, then you can watch ‘Mystery Theater’ and I can watch the baseball game? Wait, I can’t miss ‘Deception.’ Can I watch both of them live?” “You can’t watch ‘Deception’ live because it’s HDTV, which means we could only record one other show. I could watch sports with you, but you know there’s no chance of that happening.” With the DVR, we have the option to zip past ads by using the fast-forward option. My wife is a two-arrow person, mean-

ing she only presses the forward button twice. She wants to trudge slowly along so she doesn’t pass the desired starting spot immediately after the commercials. I’m a five-time arrow pusher. It goes forward so fast that I have to backtrack, because I always end up at the closing credits even though I’ve only watched 10 minutes of the show. Then I rewind with five pushes to find where I left off, and all of a sudden, I’m looking at the opening credits … again. The other night Mary Ellen shoved me off the couch because I was driving her crazy with the FF button. This is how push comes to shove. At some point when you program too many shows at the same time, a prompt comes up that says: C O N F L I C T. Yes, indeed there is a conflict, but Mary Ellen and I always try to work it out, because we don’t want to go to bed mad. Assuming we ever get to bed. It’s difficult … with so many shows to watch.

How to choose a running shoe Commentary by Joseph Hui As the weather gets warmer, many people will lace up their shoes and get back into or starting a running spring activity program for the first time. For a runner, shoes are everything. But how does one choose the right shoe? The first question is â&#x20AC;&#x201C; what type of surface will you be running on, road or trail? Trail-running shoes are typically heavier and designed to protect the foot and encourage stability on uneven, rocky surfaces. These shoes offer durable soles with more aggressive tread patterns and are generally wider and sometimes have an additional layer in the sole to reduce pain caused by stepping on debris. Next, identify the type of running pattern you have. Find a well-used pair of running/ athletic shoes from your closet and examine the wear pattern of the tread. Your running pattern is generally broken into three categories: underpronation, neutral and overpronation. Overpronation typically occurs in runners with a flat to medium arch. If the sole of the shoe is worn down near the inside

of the shoe near the big toe, then you have overpronation. Underpronation, the least common type, typically occurs in those with high arches and can be identified when the outside of the sole is worn down near the pinky toe. Neutral runners are in between and typically have even wear-pattern of the inside and outside of the fore foot. For overpronators, shoes with a stiff midsole are generally more helpful and are marketed as motion-control shoes. For underpronators, neutral-type shoes are more helpful. Finally, for neutral-pattern runners, a stability shoe is typically the best fit. The most important thing is how comfortable they feel. There has been a recent shift in the scientific literature to promote comfort as a strong predictor to reduce the incidence of running injuries. For those who experience discomfort in the knees or hips during or after running, consider an over-the-counter orthotic. Dr. Joseph Hui is a Riverview Health primary care sports medicine physician. He specializes in management of non-operative orthopedic issues and sports-related injuries. Reach him at 317-867-5263.

Architura to hold open house By Noah Alatza news@currentinfishers.com

Architectural company Architura Corp., 9880 Westpoint Dr., recently moved to Fishers from Monument Circle expansion in downtown Indianapolis. As a certified Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business, the company designs federal, state and local government projects, historic renovations and commercial corporate, among projects. Owners Michael Conley and Chuck Kotterman have lived in Fishers for 23 years and have more than 70 years of combined industry experience. In Westfield, Architura was responsible for designing the Monon Marketplace along Ind. 32 near Wheeler Road. Kotterman said Architura also is working on a similar shopping area near the new Cambria Suites at Grand Park. “We have been working on and off on that for four years,” he said, “It’s been kind of a labor of love.” Kotterman said tenants have not locked in yet on that project. He said he anticipates a sloped roof and much more of a stylized design next to the hotel. Kotterman said he met Conley through a mutual friend and founded the company in 2000. “We have seen some steady growth so far and we always kept a small size. We don’t like to increase staff when we get a lot of work because we don’t like to lay off people,” he said. The company has five employees, plus the two owners. But Kotterman said the firm could use more employees. “Government work is picking up, our (Veterans Affairs) contract will produce a lot of work, and we have a contract with the General Services Administration,” Kotterman said.

The General Services Administration leases property to tenants. Architura is an architect firm separate from developers. “We have a unique situation where Architura has done some work on almost every federal building in the state,” Kotterman said. That has included study work on the Hamilton County Courthouse, specifically for additions. Kotterman said Architura moved to Fishers from Indianapolis because of the favorable work environment. “We saw some opportunities in Hamilton County and the Fishers area,” he said. “I am still connected to downtown, but here I don’t feel like I am missing any of that energy, and I like the feeling of being here. It’s peaceful.” Other recent projects include the upgraded Delta Faucet Corporate Headquarters expansion in Carmel. The open house for the new building is scheduled for 4 to 7 p.m. May 10.

Marshall tackles Mayzie role in FHS is ‘Seussical’ By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Fishers High School senior Ally Marshall knew she was ready for her spotlight role. Marshall plays Mayzie LaBird in the school’s production of “Semusical ussical,” which is set for 7 p.m. May 10, 11 and 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. May 12 at the high school auditorium. The musical features a variety of characters from Dr. Seuss books. “This is a really big role,” Marshall said. “I was Tatina in ‘Midsummer Night’s Dream,’ but this is the first time I’ve been the lead in the musical. I’ve been basically preparing all year.” Marshall had wanted the role since the school announced it was doing the musical last fall. “Mayzie is very big, everything about her is bigger than everyone else,” Marshall said. “She is the center of attention, and everyone wants to be her. It’s that confidence she had really drove me to want to be like her and my time in the spotlight, basically.” Marshall said the biggest challenge is the singing. “I’m not a natural, gifted singer, so I had to work with a lot of vocalists to get the basics because she does some hard vocals,” Marshall said. Marshall was mainly in the chorus in the other musicals she has been in at FHS. “Last year, I got a supporting lead but it didn’t have a lot of music in it,” said Marshall, who plans to major in theater at Indiana University. Marshall said the production should appeal to Dr. Seuss fans because it features characters from many of his books. Senior Kara Porzuczek is playing the Cat in the Hat, who also serves as a narrator. She is in her 12th production with FHS. “It’s nothing like I’ve Porzuczek ever done before because I’m playing all these different characters but all within one character,” Porzuczek said. “The Cat in the Hat is the narrator of the stories. He’s like a puppeteer making

Blueprint for Improvement: Zionsville lower-level update Commentary by Larry Greene

After solutions

Before

Background Info: This early 2000s home in the Long Beach Estates neighborhood of Zionsville was a great space for the homeowners and their family to grow, but it lacked their own personal touches. So, they wanted updates that reflected their unique taste.

Before problems The lower level was dated and had minimal natural light. The floorplan of the kitchen was small and lacked storage solutions. Certain spaces like the kitchen table and built-in desk were underutilized. The lower level lacked a cohesive design.

After

The overall goal was to create a space that functioned better for the homeowner while giving it a modern look that reflected the homeownerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s personal taste. 1. The largest transformation came from extending the footprint of the island from 4 feet to 10 feet, adding more space for storage and replacing the kitchen table with island seating. This helped make the space appear larger and gave the homeowner ample countertop space! 2. New contrasting cabinetry and countertops were added to the kitchen and dry bar, providing a more modern look and adding plenty of unique storage solutions. 3. A large barn door replaced the pantry door, which freed up space and added a unique design element to the space. 4. Shiplap and encaustic cement tile details were added in the kitchen, dry bar and living room, tying the design together. Larry Greene is the owner of Case Design/Remodeling.

Don’t peak too early Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt

Commentary by Don Knebel Each year, 5 million people visit Nice, located at the southeastern corner of France, to enjoy a picturesque stretch of the Mediterranean coastline. The travel area’s popularity goes back 200,000 years. The Greeks founded Nice as a port city along what is now known as the Côte d’Azur (Sky Blue Coast) in the fourth century B.C. They named the city after Nike, the goddess of victory. By the middle ages, Nice had become an important independent city, with many of its residents speaking Italian. In the late 18th century, Mont Boron, a hill overlooking the Bay of Angels on Nice’s southeastern end, was a favorite winter haven for British aristocrats, who enjoyed the mild weather and spectacular views. In 1820, reportedly to keep the locals employed during an economic downturn, the English visitors, with financial support from Nice’s Anglican Church, initiated construction of a walkway along the shore of the Bay of Angels. The walkway, named the Promenade des Anglais (Walkway of the English), now extends from the Nice airport to the famous Cadran Solaire, a sundial where people standing on it become the shadow-casting gnomon. In 1966, during construction near the base of Mont Boron, archaeologists discovered a site they called Terra Amata. Excavation revealed that humans had occupied the site, once adjacent the coast, no later than 200,000

B.C. and had used fire in their beachside huts, one of the earliest examples of the domestication of fire in Europe. A small museum above the site displays items from Terra Amata, including simple tools made from beach stones. Nice officially became part of France in 1860 and today, with a population of about 350,000, is the country’s fifthlargest city.

CITY OF FISHERS PLAT COMMITTEE NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that a public hearing will be held by the City of Fishers Advisory Plan Commission at 5:00PM, THURSDAY, MAY 24 in the City of Fishers Auditorium, located on the 1st floor within Fishers City Hall building, One Municipal Drive, Fishers, Indiana. REQUEST: At that hearing, the public will be invited to offer comments on the following request (“Proposal”): Consideration of petition PP-11044, a request for Primary Plat approval of two (2) lots on approximately 3.49 acres. LOCATION: The Proposal is located at 11070 East 126th Street, and is generally located southeast of the East 126th Street and Promise Road intersection. Indiana Law requires the City of Fishers to provide notice in a published newspaper circulation. Although Indiana State Law requires a noticed public hearing for a subdivision of land, the Plat Committee is obligated by law to approve a subdivision of land IF it complies with all the City’s development standards. If a land subdivision request does not meet all the City’s development standards, the petitioner will need a waiver of the standard(s) and the Plat Committee may approve the subdivision with a waiver, or approve it with conditions and the waiver, or the request may be denied. The case file about this project is available for public review in the office of the Department of Planning and Zoning, located on the 2nd floor at Fishers City Hall. The meeting agenda and related information will be posted on the City’s website forty-eight (48) hours in advance of the meeting specified above. Written objections filed with the secretary of the Advisory Plan Commission before the hearing will be considered. If you would like your written comments to be provided to the Fishers Advisory Plan Commission, you must submit them one (1) week prior to the hearing date noted above. Oral comments will be heard during the public hearing. Department of Planning and Zoning City of Fishers 1 Municipal Drive, Fishers, IN 46038 (317) 595-3120 www.fishers.in.us

I think I peaked around age 25, which was longer ago now than I’d like to admit. When I was a boy, I peeked at grammar guy my birthday presents because I couldn’t wait until the big day. Understanding grammar has always piqued my interest. Today, we’re discussing peek, peak and pique, three words that sound alike but have different meanings. That makes them homophones, which are words that sound alike but have different meanings and spellings. Peek means to look or glance quickly, often when you’re not supposed to be doing so. Our neighbors across the street are remodeling their house right now, so I like to peek in the windows to check on their progress. If you want to remember how to use “peek” correctly, just imagine the two lowercase e’s are eyes peering mischievously. Peak means to literally or figuratively reach the highest point of something. In a literal sense, this could be a mountain. The explorers reached the peak of Mt. Everest this morning. In the figurative sense, a peak is the highest level someone reaches or achieves. The movie reached its peak when the supposedly unsinkable luxury ship smashed into the iceberg. To remember peak, picture the “a” in “peak” as a capital “A,” thus giving you a visual reminder of a mountain shape. Pique means to excite or arouse attention or to irritate. I especially like using pique as a synonym for irritate because I’m a younger brother; in a way, I was born to pique my older sister. It’s neither good to peak too early nor to peek too early; either scenario leads to certain disappointment.
