‘Hotly contested’ primaries expected in 5th District

By Ann Marie Shambaugh annmarie@youarecurrent.com Less than three weeks after U.S. Rep. Susan Brooks’ announced that she will retire from Congress at the end of her ELECTION term, two Democrats and one Republican have launched campaigns for her 5th District seat.

As of July 2, the candidates include Democrats Dee Thornton, a Carmel resident who lost to Brooks in 2018, and Jennifer Christie, an Indianapolis science teacher and mother of four. On the Republican side, Noblesville resident Micah Beckwith, a small business owner and pastor, announced his intentions to run July 1.

With the election for the soon-to-be open seat occurring in 2020 – a presidential election year – voter turnout is expected to be high.

Local leaders from both parties expect to see crowded polling places and primary races in May 2020.

“I imagine we’re going to have some hotly contested primaries on both sides,” said Joe Weingarten, chairman of the Hamilton County Democratic Party.

Hamilton County Republican Party chair Laura Campbell declined to name potential candidates but said she’s had discussions with a couple of people with “name recognition” who are considering a run for the 5th District.

“I think there will probably be a good field of people who are interested in running in the Republican primary,” Campbell said.

Thornton received 43 percent of the vote for the 5th District seat in 2018 – the highest percentage earned by a Democrat since the district formed in 2000 – and Weingarten said the party has grown stronger in Hamilton County and the district since then. He said the Democratic party plans to send a national team to the 5th District to help with the campaign.

“I look at it from a standpoint that we actually could get a Democrat to win,” Weingarten said.

Campbell acknowledged that as Hamilton County has grown its demographics have shifted slightly to the left. She expects candidates from both parties to focus on appealing to moderate and undecided voters in 2020.

“With next year being a presidential year, there will be a lot of people who don’t vote every election who come out (to vote),” she

THE CANDIDATES As of July 2, three candidates have announced plans to run for the U.S. House of Representatives in Indiana’s 5th District.

Dee Thornton

After gathering more support than any other Democratic candidate who’s challenged Republican U.S. Rep. Susan Brooks in the 5th District, Dee Thornton is ready to campaign for the seat again.

The Carmel resident, who had never run for office before, earned 43 percent of the vote in 2018. With a bit of experience under her belt, she expects to do even better the second time.

“When you’re a first-time candidate, you’re learning your way around,” Thornton said. “This time, I think we’re going to have a good plan in place, and I believe that the 5th District can be flipped. It can be blue.”

Thornton and her husband have three children.

She retired from Xerox to start her own business.

Thornton will hold a campaign kickoff event July 15.

Jennifer Christie

As a scientist and mother of four young children, Indianapolis resident Jennifer Christie said she feels called to run for office to help address climate change, an issue she believes could have a major impact on future generations.

“I feel we’re not making sufficient progress to solve climate change,” she said. “I feel I have some qualifications to bring a new perspective to a tough issue that is, in my opinion, the greatest threat to ever face humanity, so having that as our greatest challenge can also be our greatest opportunity.”

Health care also will be a major focus of her campaign, Christie said.

Christie teaches science classes at the Westfield Washington Public Library.

She ran a short campaign for the 5th District in 2018 but withdrew from the race before the primary and was not on the ballot.

said. “I think that the independent voter will come into play next year very strongly.”

The 5th District includes all or parts of Hamilton, Boone, Marion, Blackford, Grant, Howard,

Micah Beckwith

Noblesville resident Micah Beckwith was the first candidate to announce a campaign for the 5th District Republican primary.

Beckwith is a father, small business owner and pastor at Northview Christian Church in Carmel.

“I’ve been watching what is happening in Washington and know that we need someone to take up the fight to defend true Constitutional conservative values,” Beckwith stated in a press release. “I am honored to announce that I will be running for Congress in 2020.”

Beckwith has degrees in business and economics and finance and has a passion for learning American history.

Madison and Tipton counties. Since forming in 2000, it has only sent Republicans to Congress, but the gap between the parties has narrowed throughout the years.

“With next year being a presidential year, there will be a lot of people who don’t vote every election who come out (to vote). I think that the independent voter will come into play next year very strongly.”

David Weekley homes team members renovate Mary Rigg Neighborhood Center’s Resource Center David Weekley Homes recently partnered with 19 local nonprofit organizations across the country through the company’s CARE Build Month projects.

In Indianapolis, the project benefitted Mary Rigg Neighborhood Center, a community resource dedicated to aiding adults, youth and families with before and after school care, summer camp, employment coaching, finance classes and more. Approximately 26 Weekley team members from the company’s Indianapolis team volunteered 246 hours to transform and rebuild the facility’s Resource Center.

This project provided a new space for clients to have access to computers, telephone and fax services, the internet and copy machines. This renovated area will give clients the opportunity to search for jobs, work on projects and create resumes.

“It’s so great to see what a difference a day can make and how many lives can be impacted in such a short time,” said Kim Cantou, a sales consultant with David Weekley Homes.

The project was an initiative of the company’s CARE program, which is a charitable and volunteer program that partners team members, homeowners, homebuyers and community partners with nonprofits to make a positive impact in the lives of everyone it touches and in all the communities it builds through its purpose, Building Dreams, Enhancing Lives. This is accomplished by company team members volunteering countless hours to different organizations in their communities and

After forming the partnership, the fundraising and renovation took only two years to complete.

Carmel-based Ritz Charles, with 30-plus years of customer service experience, has exclusive operating rights to cater food and beverages at the Chinese House.

“We felt over the long run it could be a very sustainable, beneficial arrangement with food and beverage on the event side,” Nicholls said.

Ritz Charles contributed $820,000 to the $3.3 million project. The Chinese House was unveiled to the public in late April when Conner Prairie conducted its annual meeting.

“The renovated Chinese House provides guests a great connection to Conner Prairie’s past and a gateway to our future,” Burns said. “Visitors get to experience Eli Lilly’s former retreat and his love for Chinese culture while having access to nature,

views of the White River and a beautifully renovated space for their events. Revenue generated from this partnership and new space will allow Conner Prairie to continue providing unique and innovative experiences for our members and guests for years to come.”

The Chinese House has already played host to three events since the renovation: Conner Prairie’s 2018 annual meeting, a donor’s party and a wedding reception.

ESSAY New language

LETTER End modern slavery

Commentary by Terry Anker Some among us are blessed to have mastered two or more languages. Those lucky ones start, as do we all, with a native tongue but they build from there. It could be the result of desire to travel, learn or even communicate, directly and simply. It could be the result of required academic or professional proficiency. Or, it could be the result of the physical limitations of geography where our latitude and longitude require more of us to survive and flourish daily.

The level of education, wealth or aptitude have little bearing on those who develop the skill. In the rows of gold-corded honors graduates, none would be without a second or third language on their resumes. Still, in tourist markets from Istanbul to Beijing to Mexico City to Manhattan, peddlers call out in nearly as many languages as there are faces in the crowd, eager to catch the attention of would-be customers in their own tongue.

They study pop culture, food and other non-verbal peculiarities to better use the acquired vernacular.

It seems that words alone are not complete.

In fact, many communicate without words. Symbols, logos and pantomime are used as ample expression. Culture itself can stand without voice, and information technology has developed and nourished countless other “languages,” all designed for increasing efficiency. Each word finds an equal yet entirely different counterpart, and they do improve our ability to connect with each other.

But, are we on a path to rebuild the Tower of Babel? Or, are we rightly seeking to regain the bond between all humans lost as we scattered the earth?

Apology for appalling bug Commentary by Danielle Wilson I committed the cardinal sin of motherhood the other day by becoming sick. I know! How could I have possibly been so selfish, so uncaring, so clearly unconcerned HUMOR with the needs of my husband and children? And I didn’t even give anyone a heads-up. On Tuesday I was fine, and then on Wednesday, I was down for the count. My apologies, family.

I think I had typhoid fever. That may sound melodramatic, but I had just taken my first dose of the live vaccine (headed to Southeast Asia in a few weeks; hopefully, plenty of exotic tales forthcoming!), and in rare cases, one can experience symptoms. For me, it was nausea, fatigue, headache and intense stomach cramps. At my lowest point, I was dryheaving in my oldest son’s disgusting toilet, and then crawling my way back upstairs to bed, only to writhe in pain every time my intestines seized.

By the second day of my inconsiderate

illness, I was able to remain downstairs on the couch. My kids would stare at me and inquire as to my “condition,” then promptly ask if I had gone to the grocery or what was for dinner. When I merely glared back, pale and weak, their general response was one of exasperation and a “Jeeze, mom, you picked a terrible time to catch a bug, I’m hungry!” expression.

Doo wasn’t much better. Sure, I got the requisite spousal “there, there’s,” but no true sympathy. The prevalent atmosphere at Chez Wilson was definitely, “Could you please hurry up and get better? We have a summer to enjoy!”

My apologies, family, for succumbing to typhoid. It won’t happen again.

Peace out.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK “The best way to find out if you can trust somebody is to trust them.”

— Ernest Hemingway

Editor, Everyone deserves to be free, but more than 40 million people are trapped in slavery today. On June 20, the U.S. State Dept. released the 2019 Trafficking in Persons Report. The TIP Report sheds light on this hidden crime and ranks 187 nations, including the U.S., on their efforts to combat it.

As Gary Haugen, CEO of International Justice Mission, says, “Nothing happens just because we are aware of modern-day slavery, but nothing will ever happen until we are.”

With the truth out there for all to see, we can no longer look away. Our members of Congress have the chance to rise above the partisan bickering of the day and recommit themselves to protecting the integrity of the TIP Report and the American-led programs that help rescue slaves and put their perpetrators behind bars.

We’re counting on you, lawmakers, to use your voice and tip the scales toward justice. If we can summon sufficient political courage, we can end slavery in our lifetime.

Andrea Pulice, Westfield

If we can summon sufficient political courage, we can end slavery in our lifetime.

For Father’s Day, my son bought me one of those watches that tracks your daily steps, monitors your heartbeat and I HUMOR think it can tell you the correct time, but I haven’t gotten that far in the directions.

In order for it to record steps, your arms have to swing back and forth. I spent half an hour in Kroger the other day pushing my cart, but it showed I had not taken a single step because my hands were grasping the cart’s handle. I was so frustrated, I just started flapping my arms like a bird.

The manager must have assumed I didn’t speak English because he led me over to the roasted chickens.

A story in Prevention magazine said that the idea of 10,000 steps per day, the conventional goal often cited as a guideline, has no scientific basis. Apparently, someone just made this number up. It’s probably the same guy who made up eight glasses of water a day and eight hours of sleep. I have always questioned the three-meals-a-day concept, so I’ve gone to five, which at least involves moving my right arm a lot more.

When I looked at my watch this morning, I had walked 1,267 steps while I was asleep.

The cookie jar was empty and someone had mowed the lawn in the middle of the night.

Two Ambien before bed might be one more than I need.

Personally, I think I get plenty of walking in each day. Here are a few examples from just this past week: • I walked to the mailbox to get the cheesecake I ordered from a NY deli.

• I walked from the living room where I was taking a nap to the bedroom to get a good night’s sleep.

• I walked from the pro shop to my golf cart.

• I walked into the garage several times to get in my car.

I plan to walk to my office every day. It’s not my fault I work out of my house, but it’s at least taking steps in the right direction.3

“Every initiative that CENTURY 21 Scheetz undertakes is to build upon our strong culture,” said Jason O’Neil, president of CENTURY 21 Scheetz. “As a brokerage that is always improving, forward-thinkin and has agent lives as a top priority, we feel compelled to overdeliver the extraordinary to our agents.”

STUDY RANKS COUNTY FIRST FOR SHORT-TERM SAVINGS GROWTH news@currentinfishers.com A new study ranks Hamilton County on a list of best places in the state MONEY where individuals can grow their short-term savings.

We decided to solve one of the biggest stressors for real estate agents.”

The program could save employees between $300 to $500 per month on health care, and O’Neil hopes it will set the company apart in the market.

“Health care is not a profit generator for us. We believe that happy, worryfree agents are able to focus on creating extraordinary experiences for their clients, in turn sell more property and ultimately increase their success,” O’Neil said. “When our agents are able to focus on the client experience and take care of property owners, we all win.”

Carmel Community Players’ production centers on USS Indianapolis

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com This role fits into Tim Latimer’s background quite nicely.

Latimer, a retired HamMUSICAL ilton Southeastern Junior High School history teacher, is playing Captain Charles McVay III in the Carmel Community Players’ production of “Failure to Zig Zag: The Story of the USS Indianapolis.” He taught Latimer eighth-grade history for 32 years.

“Rarely does a play come along where it’s based on fact,” said Latimer, an Indianapolis resident. “As a history teacher, this is right up my alley.”

McVay’s ship was sunk by a Japanese submarine after delivering components for the atomic bomb that was dropped on Hiroshima.

“There aren’t many roles for a guy in my age group,” Latimer said. “I’m supposed to be a guy that is like 48, so I’m past that.”

Carmel Community Players will present the play July 19 to 28 at The Cat, 254 Veterans Way, Carmel.

Latimer said he knew a little about the history of the USS Indianapolis, which was sunk July, 30, 1945 in the Philippine Sea. Of the 1,195 men on the ship, approximately 300 died in the attack. The remaining 890 survived the initial sinking, but only 316 survived the four-day ordeal in shark-infested water. The other fatalities were the result of shark attacks, exposure, dehydration and saltwater poisoning. The 879 fatalities were the singlegreatest loss of life in U.S. Navy history.

McVay was court-martialed and found responsible for his failure to zig zag to avoid torpedoes, but the punishment was put aside. McVay, who committed suicide in 1968, was later exonerated after support by USS Indianapolis survivors.

THEATER “We typically present one-act plays and progressive plays using the entire mansion,” said Donna Wing, Candlelight Theatre founder and creative director. “For this full-length production, we are using one room, the back parlor, and will have a small, intimate house every performance. There is also the added food experience. The ticket price includes an alcoholic beverage and appetizer plate before the performance as well as coffee/tea and dessert at intermission.”

Wing, a Geist resident, portrays Elaine Wheeler in the thriller for six performances from July 12 to 21 at the Benjamin Harrison Presidential Site, 1230 North Delaware Street, Indianapolis.

The play, written by Lucille Fletcher, focuses on Wheeler believing she looks out her window to sees the body of dead man through another window. Police are not able to discover anything.

Wing said the role has major challenges.

“First, I am performing in a salon, in a

small space,” Wing said. “The audience sees me for almost the entire length of the play while sitting just a few feet from me.

Second, Elaine displays a roller coaster of emotion. She is on the verge of a breakdown, sometimes high and agitated, sometimes low and depressed. Finally, I perform with eight other actors in a small space. We must be continually aware of where the others are, not only for the integrity of the play, but to make sure we are respectful of the Harrison artifacts.”

Wing said audiences will enjoy the unique ambiance of the event and the mystery story.

“The Harrison mansion is so perfect for mystery,” she said. “The richness of the surroundings, the historic element, the close proximity to the audience all add to an eerie atmosphere that is unparalleled.

dishes, and the small-plates menu changes frequently. I sampled several small plates, but my absolute favorite was the Negiyaki, a savory leek-and-onion pancake topped with ginger miso sauce, a sunny egg and katsuobushi, which is dried, fermented and smoked tuna. Don’t knock it until you try it.

I also tried the sudachi marinated cucumbers ($8), the daily tsukemono ($5), which is a mix of pickles and fermented vegetables, and several sushi rolls, all of which were phenomenal. For dessert, I tried the hojicha milkshake, which is roasted green tea, milk syrup and Graeter’s ice cream for $5.

Suggested pairings: Any sake will do, but I also tried one of the bartender’s specialty drinks, the Jammy Dodger. Opt for a sparkling sake to start.

Setting up the setup Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt I don’t attend many movies with groups anymore. Part of that is a life stage issue -- most of my friends are married and have small kids. It’s hard to GRAMMAR GUY justify the added babysitter expense if we want to go out for the evening. Before that, I was always the guy who arrived early.

Because of my promptness, I ended up saving seats for the whole group. I’d start declaring my group’s territory by draping my jacket over a pair of seats. Then, I’d put my popcorn and drink in the cup holders a few seats away.

As the minutes ticked on, I had to fend off more people who also wanted “middle” of the theater. The anxiety of saving six to eight seats for my friends who were chronically five minutes late ended up being too much for me; I did not like this setup one bit.

That brings me to the crux of today’s grammar guidance: What’s the difference between “setup” and “set up”?

Let’s start with “setup.” Use setup (or set-up) as either a noun or an adjective. As a noun, setup means the arrangement or organization of something. For example, “The camera setup was all wrong, so the director kept adjusting the shot.” As an adjective, setup gets used often in technology situations: Go to the setup screen to change your network settings.

As a verb, use “set up.” I set up my friend Byron with his new job answering phones at the conspiracy theory hotCITY 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, July 25TH, 2019 at the 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-19-13, a request for Primary Plat approval to creation of two blocks for The Ritchey Reserve PUD development, on approximately 12.4 acres.

LOCATION: The Proposal is generally located south of 106th Street with the common address of 7877 E 106th Street Fishers, IN 46038, also known as parcel #14-14-12-00-00-001.002 & #14-14-1200-00-001.004.

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.
