Kroger is tapping Microsoft to help create grocery stores of the future, and keep up with Amazon and Walmart.The two companies announced a partnership on Monday that will bring digital shelves, price tags, and advertisements to two pilot stores in Ohio and Washington State, near each company's headquarters.The stores are designed to make it easier for customers and workers to navigate the stores, saving shoppers time and Kroger money.Kroger has been partnering with companies such as Nuro, Ocado, and Walgreens as it aims to speed up grocery delivery and pickup, and experiment with digital tools to support its network of physical stores.The grocery chain is trying to give shoppers — who are increasingly browsing and buying everything from consumer electronics to breakfast cereal online — more reasons to visit physical stores.Under the latest partnership, customers first build a shopping list using Kroger's Scan, Bag, Go self-checkout app.Then, the app works with cloud-based software and sensors in the store to guide them around as they check off items on their list. For example, if a customer is looking for pasta, the app will direct the customer to the correct aisle. As the customer nears the aisle and approaches the type of pasta they chose, a personal avatar — like a banana or an avocado —will light up that directs them to the right one. They'll scan the item to check out, and the system will route the customer to the next item on their list."The notion of Kroger having to figure out what digital looks like in store for a grocery shopper is super important," said Jason Goldberg, head of the commerce practice at digital agency SapientRazorfish. He believes the tech could appeal to customers who want more information about the food they're buying, where it comes from, and how to store it in their homes.Shelves at the two tech-enhanced stores will also look much different than traditional stores.Instead of paper tags for prices and promotions, they will be digital. That creates room for Kroger to sell advertising space to brands, which could provide a new profit stream in the low-margin grocery business.Switching will help Kroger quickly change prices on products and create deals, instead of an employee manually making the changes. Kroger said it will boost workers' productivity, since employees will be able to quickly locate products for customers' curbside grocery pickup orders.Kroger's ( 2443

INDIANAPOLIS — More than 300 air traffic controllers work in Indianapolis and they are beginning to feel the pain of the partial government shutdown. The jets continue to fly and the controllers continue to make sure that there is no chaos in the skies — but there is a price. Air traffic controllers are trying to keep your flight safe, even as they do it without pay because of the government shutdown."We are working 6 days a week. Some are working 10 hours a day, that's across the country," said Marc Schneider, National Air Traffic Controllers Association president. "We are at a 30 year low in staffing for air traffic controllers nationwide. The school in Oklahoma City is shut down."According to Schneider, controllers were recently trained on new technology that allows them to text message pilots in the cockpit. This was supposed to roll out Friday and now isn't happening because of the shutdown.If it is not implemented by January 15, all the controllers will have to be retrained — at a high cost. "It's a stressful job to begin with. These are people's lives we are dealing with," Schneider said. "Everyone just got done paying for Christmas and now there is no money coming in. Those are things we have to worry about."Also at the airport, folks who work for the Transportation Security Administration are on the job, and not getting paid. They are represented by the American Federation of Government Employees, who handle 30,000 workers in Indiana, Ohio and Kentucky. That body is filing a lawsuit against the federal government."We're saying it's against the law to work employees without paying them. These are not slaves. It's against the law," said Arnold Scott of the American Federation of Government Employees. "The fair labor standards require federal employees be paid for the work that they perform."The hope is that the lawsuit will never get a hearing because the government will reopen. 1934

It could be a make-or-break week for the delicate trade negotiations between the United States and China as they drift further beyond the ambitious 90-day clock set last year by the leaders of the world's two largest economic superpowers.The Trump administration will welcome China's top trade negotiator in Washington on Wednesday in hopes of striking a comprehensive deal that would address long-standing concerns by the US government and top business executives.But the meeting comes as President Donald Trump is consumed with an escalating political crisis over his threat to close the US-Mexico border -- an echo of meetings earlier this year that were overshadowed by the partial government shutdown.As the tit-for-tat tariff war between the United States and China stretches beyond the one-year mark, top officials from both countries in recent weeks have begun to signal they are nearing the end of a trade standoff that once rattled Wall Street, though neither side has provided details about how talks progressed at last week's round of negotiations in Beijing."We're getting to the point where it's clear that both governments want a deal. The presidents want a deal, and they need to get through the end-game issues. This is a critical week," Myron Brilliant, executive vice president and head of international affairs at the US Chamber of Commerce told reporters on Tuesday.Some of the most difficult hurdles lie ahead as Chinese Vice Premiere Liu He arrives to continue talks with his counterparts Robert Lighthizer, the country's top trade envoy and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin.At issue is whether the two sides can reach an agreement that could potentially lift billions of dollars of tariffs on Chinese goods in exchange for the United States having the power to take unilateral action to penalize Beijing if it fails to play by the rules of the deal."This end game issue -- this is what we're working through," said Brilliant. "This is why we don't have a final package at this point."Trump and other top administration officials in recent weeks have sent strong signals they plan on keeping in place tariffs on 0 billion of Chinese goods for a "substantial period of time.""We have to make sure that if we do the deal with China that China lives by the deal," Trump told reporters as he left Washington for Ohio ahead of Lighthizer and Mnuchin's trip to Beijing last week.At the time, Trump didn't spell out whether the US is planning to keep in place tariffs on all of the 0 billion of Chinese goods the US has imposed penalties or for how long.The White House could take a variety of approaches either by deciding to partially rollback tariffs or potentially reducing the level of tariffs currently imposed, a decision that will ultimately fall to the President who has favored a hefty tariff policy.Top officials have made clear they see the penalties as leverage over Beijing, but might be willing to ease some of them depending on the size of the deal.White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow has also hinted the United States would be willing to extend trade negotiations with China weeks or even months to strike the right deal."This is not time-dependent. This is policy- and enforcement-dependent," said Kudlow in a speech in Washington last week. "If it takes a few more weeks, or if it takes months, so be it. We have to get a great deal, as the president says, that works for the United States. That's our principle interest."Talks between the two sides have continued this month after the Trump administration officially shelved a plan to sharply increase tariffs on 0 billion of Chinese exports as the world's two largest economies inch closer to a deal. The administration hasn't offered a time frame on how long the US government would be willing to delay the tariff increase on China."You have a moment in time right now -- the focus of the two governments, the whole world is watching, the stakes are very high," said Brilliant. "Neither state wants to back away from these negotiations, so the momentum is still moving us forward to get to a final deal." 4120

It is a joyous time for Virginia junior guard Kyle Guy. Not only is Guy getting to participate in this weekend's Final Four, Guy is engaged to get married. But it turns out one joyous occasion is playing havoc with another one. Guy and his fiancee removed their wedding registry after a link to their registry became public. According to the Washington Post, Guy said he was told that having a wedding registry would affect Guy's college eligibility. So no wedding registry, at least not yet. “Yeah, that was crazy to me that that’s illegal because that’s what a registry’s for,” Guy told the media on Thursday. “Yeah, NCAA said it was illegal, so I’m not going to argue with it right now. I’m going to try to win a national championship, and we’ll open that book.”Apparently Guy had launched the registry -- no word on where they're registered -- which became public knowledge through the Busted Coverage sports blog, the Post reported. The blog's founder then received a cease and desist letter from the university claiming that sharing the registry link could cause Guy to lose his eligibility. That's when Guy and his fiancee removed the registry. But NCAA President Mark Emmert said a registry is permissible as long as it is private. "Nobody in the NCAA said anything of the sort," Emmert told USA Today. "We don't know what the source of that information was. ... It's certainly not the case that it's a violation of NCAA rules." A university spokesperson told the USA Today that the university does not "desire to interrupt typical gift giving practices." 1575
