Pink P Pinkel inkel el Sa Says ys Cancer Is Bac Back k COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP) — Former Missouri football coach Gary Pinkel says he is being treated for cancer again. Pinkel told ABC17 TV in Columbia on Saturday that he had treatment last month after his cancer came out of remission for the first time in four years. He says his type of cancer will never be healed and he intends to keep fighting it. Pinkel retired after the 2015 season after announcing that he had non-Hodgkin lymphoma. He coached the Tigers from 2001 to 2016, compiling a 118-73 record. Pinkel, who is 67, has been a fundraising liaison with the Missouri athletics foundation. He also started the "GP MADE Foundation" to raise money for cancer research and programs to help underprivileged and special needs children.

Sporting Spor Sporting ting Pulls Off Of f R Road oad Win COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Felipe Gutierrez scored early in the second half and Tim Melia made four saves to give Sporting Kansas City its first road win of the season, 1-0 over the Columbus Crew on Sunday. Gutierrez was just a couple steps off the goal line unmarked for the easy header on a short cross from Gerso Fernandes. Fermandes made a great effort on the end line to keep the ball in play, slipped it through defender Botond Barath's legs and put the ball on Gutierrez's head. It was the seventh goal for Gutierrez and enough to give Melia his second shutout of the season. It is also the second clean sheet for Sporting KC (4-5-7). The Crew (5-9-2) lost more than the game. Just 15 minutes in David Accam left with a hamstring injury and in the74th minute Harrison Afful was given a straight red card when he pulled down Fernandes from behind on a breakaway.

Reavie Wins Travelers Championship CROMWELL, Conn. (AP) — Chez Reavie is a PGA Tour winner again after 11 years and 250 events. Reavie won the Travelers Championship on Sunday, closing with a 1-under 69 for a four-stroke victory over Keegan Bradley and Zack Sucher. The 37-year-old Reavie, whose first title came as a rookie at the 2008 Canadian Open, finished at 17-under 263 at TPC River Highlands a week after tying for third in the U.S. Open at Pebble Beach. "It means everything," he said. "I went through some injuries, had some long years there in the middle. But it was great, because it gave good perseverance and good perspective of what life is and what golf is." The former Arizona State player took a six-stroke lead over Bradley and Sucher into the round after a shooting a 63

on Saturday. He had an understated celebration, pulling his ball out of the hole at 18 and saluting the crowd with it clenched in his fist. It was the same calm he showed throughout the day, even as, Bradley, a New England native from nearby Vermont, chipped away to the cheers of the large galleries. Bradley made back-to-back birdies on 10 and 11 to get within three shots, just missed a 13-foot birdie putt on the 12th, then made a 9-footer on 13 to get within two strokes. His 22 foot-birdie attempt at 14 stopped just at the hole. He got within a stroke on the par-4 15th when he made a 7 1/2-foot birdie putt after Reavie missed an 11-footer. "The crowd was just so behind me and so loud and so, it felt like a Ryder Cup to me," Bradley said. "Man, I've dreamt of this ever since I've come here at 10 years old. It lived up to the hype — it was

awesome." But Reavie put the tournament away on the par-4 17th, making a 14-foot birdie putt, while Bradley three-putted for a double bogey. Bradley and Sucher each shot 67, with Sucher playing the back nine in 5-under 30. Sucher, coming of an injury that kept him away from golf for 13 months after the 2017 Travelers, had his best ever finish in a PGA Tour event. "The back nine was unbelievable," Sucher said. "I mean the whole thing was unbelievable with the huge crowds, it was quite an experience." He came into his fourth of six medical extension start needing to earn 347 FexEx Cup points to retain his Tour card. He came in with 25 points and picked up 245 with the second-place tie. "It's amazing, it's life-changing to be honest," Sucher said. "It changes the rest of our year, it changes our plans and we have a lot of work to do to figure what else we have to do now." Vaughn Taylor, who started nine strokes back, made a run of five birdies to finish his final-round of 65, shooting a 29 on the back nine. His 15foot birdie putt on 18 put him at 12 under. "I've never birdied the last five holes of a tournament that's for sure," Taylor said Paul Casey, who blew a four-stroke lead during last year's final round, started the day 10 strokes behind Reavie, his former college teammate.

But he hit his tee shot on the par-4 15th inside 7 feet and made eagle, then finished with a birdie to go 11 under. The Englishman said he was hoping to match the 28 Reavie put up on the back nine Saturday to put some pressure on him. But he couldn't do it and spent the rest of the day rooting for his friend. Reavie, who took home just under $1.3 million, has finished in the top 20 in five of his last six starts. Defending champion Bubba Watson, who was hoping for a fourth title in Connecticut, shot a 71 to finish at 1 under, but said he wasn't disappointed with his week. "I know sometimes I look like I'm angry out there," he said. "But most of the time, I'm pretty happy." Brooks Koepka made quick work of his final round, also shooting a 71 to finish the tournament at an even par. He and Russell Knox needed just under three hours to play their 18 holes in the first group of the day. Koepka says he has a couple of appearances in the next two days and then will get some much-needed rest. "I'm not going to practice and take some time away from the game and just try to realize what's going on," he said. "''I don't think I'm still over Bethpage, and with these majors they are so tightly bunched, it's difficult. I didn't really have a chance to soak that one in and then we are playing again, it's just a continuation that keeps rolling on."

She loved people and led many to come to know the Lord. During her time at the “Great Passion Play” she gave away many Bibles. She also had a generous heart, an uplifting smile and was multitalented. She sang, played and wrote music. She did some painting, was an avid reader and wrote some unpublished stories. She also loved to cook, garden, sew and crochet.

COMMUNITY Church Activities

CWF Installs New CWF New Officers Officers The CWF of the First Christian Church met on June 18 in the church fellowship hall with eight members and three guests present. Guests were Martha Bagby, Bev Wimer and Jackson Lewis. President Cindy Stewart opened the meeting with all repeating the CWF prayer. Nema Rowoth submitted a courtesy report showing cards were sent to several church members and friends during the past month. Early Bird camp registrations were finalized with 14 youth, including two guest campers, planning to attend. Scholarships in the amount of $2,260 were presented by the CWF to pay for 12 campers. Members were asked to review the past yearbook for corrections before the new ones are printed this summer. The treasurer’s books will be submitted for auditing before the new church year starts on July 1. Talma Joiner conducted the installation service for the newly elected officers who will serve for the next two years. Installed were Betty

Wimer, president; Janice Stimpson, vice president; Sonna Wiggins, secretary; Theresa Cox, treasurer; Talma Joiner, study/devotion; and Nema Rowoth, service/courtesy. Filling the two appointed positions were Waldean Breitenbucher, bereavement; and Martha Maloney, scheduling flowers for the sanctuary. Mrs. Joiner’s devotion was taken from a post by Robert Wimer, looking at a clean looking floor to all who might see it and comparing it to the water in the mop bucket after scrubbing. The metaphor looked at members as Christians, with the outer-selves looking good to the world while the unseen inner-self may be soiled by sin. Only the cleansing power of God can make a person worthy in every way. The meeting closed with everyone repeating the CWF benediction. Refreshments of favorite finger foods brought by those attending were served. The next meeting of the group will be on Sept. 23.

The emphasis was on being what God made individuals to be by living a holy life, an obedient life and a disciplined life to achieve true happiness from a closeness to God. Thank you notes were read from Green Hills Women’s

Shelter, the North 65 Center and PATCH for contributions made to those organizations. Patty Martin shared information about the regional Festival of Sharing to be held on Sept. 7 at the Macon United Methodist Church. Wesley Methodist Women will be responsible for organizing the collection of items for the Festival of Sharing Missouri Youth Personal Care Pack, which will remain in the local area.

ACROSS MISSOURI

How Did Detectives Miss Key Suspect In 1993 Child Slaying? ST. ANN, Mo. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The red flags were there. Earl Webster Cox was already a convicted child sex offender with a history of molesting little girls when 9year-old Angie Housman was abducted moments after stepping off her school bus in St. Ann in November 1993. He had ties to the area, including a sister who lived close to Angie's school. He had been arrested for molesting two 7-year-old girls in Overland just four years before a deer hunter found Angie's body in a wooded area in St. Charles County. How, then, did the dozens of investigators who spent countless hours investigating the case miss a prime suspect? That's exactly what some of the detectives on the case have been asking themselves ever since charges against Cox were announced this week. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch interviewed several of those original investigators and key members of the Major Case Squad of Greater St. Louis about their reactions to the news that the alleged killer had been closer than they knew. All agreed that if Angie had been abducted today, advances in technology, communication and science would likely have solved the case in weeks, if not days.

Tools like the internet, social media, a sex offender registry, a national DNA database, and a local criminal history database containing arrest information across dozens of police departments did not exist at the time. Bob Schrader was police chief in St. Ann when Angie disappeared. He retired in 2013. He said the first time he heard the name Earl Cox was about a month ago. "It wasn't for lack of trying, I can tell you that," he said. "In every investigation, you can have the best technology and the best people on it, but you also need a little bit of luck." Schrader said investigators chased down leads every day for months. "Normally, somebody would talk and say you know, 'Don't look at me, check this guy out.' But nobody brought up his name." Not even his family. Cox's sister, Janet Wilson, 65, sat in a chair in her front yard on a recent Friday, not far from Buder Elementary School where Angie was a student. "He never lived here, that's the only thing I can tell you," she said in a brief interview. Did he stay there? No, she whispered. Could he have kept Angie at Wilson's house? Never, she replied, adamantly.

Is he capable of doing what he's accused of doing? "No," she said. "I don't know. I didn't know him a lot in his adult life. If he did do it, I'm very sorry, but there's nothing I can tell you." Wilson and her husband have hired a lawyer. The lawyer, Kristi Flint, said this is a stressful time for the family. She reiterated that Cox never lived at the home in Overland with his sister and that they would have nothing to say to reporters. St. Charles County Prosecuting Attorney Tim Lohmar said that Cox's name had surfaced four years after the killing, when the FBI compiled a list of 1,408 names of people who had been arrested in the area. The entry was nothing more than Cox's name and date of birth, he said. By that time, investigators from the Major Case Squad, a conglomerate of departments that donate detectives to work homicides in smaller jurisdictions, had returned to their respective departments. It's unclear what happened to the list. Cox was a ghost until a DNA profile extracted from a piece of Angie's underwear led police to him early this year. Missouri was one of 26 states that did not maintain a registry of convicted sex offenders in 1993. Illinois had one. Police who pushed for a registry in Missouri repeatedly referenced Angie's case. Robert P. McCulloch, who was then the St. Louis County prosecuting attorney, has said that a registry "would've cut the investigation that took days and days down to hours." In 1994, Congress passed a

national law requiring states to maintain registries of rapists, child molesters and other convicted sex offenders, and track where they live after they are freed from prison. That same year, the Missouri Legislature enacted its registry. Sex offenders began registering in Missouri on Jan. 1, 1995. Anyone convicted of a sex crime since 1979 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; or committed to a mental health facility as a criminal sexual psychopath â&#x20AC;&#x201D; was required to register with law enforcement. Within the first month, 197 sex offenders in St. Louis County, for example, had registered with police. Police said they had not been aware of some of them. Cox's name is still missing from Missouri's sex offender registry. He's also not listed in the Colorado database, where he was convicted in 2003 for his role in an international online child pornography ring. And he's not part of the national database. Cox is incarcerated in North Carolina as a "sexually dangerous person," a classification created by the 2016 Adam Walsh Act to give the government the power to keep people confined beyond their sentences if they are deemed highly likely to re-offend. He was certified as he neared the end of a 10-year sentence for his role in an international child pornography ring. Robert Lowery Jr. was a police officer in Florissant when his father, one of the founders of the Major Case Squad of St. Louis, tapped the son to lead the Housman case. The absence of a registry forced detectives to create lists manually, he recalled. Lowery said those who would know the criteria for those lists have died. "I can assure you that the

(suspects) we were aware of were all found, and an extensive amount of work went into trying to tie them to the case or eliminate them," he said. "I've always said, 'What frightens me is the ones who weren't on that list.'" Dan DeCarli and Rick Zweifel were part of the team of 20 to 25 detectives spending long hours following leads, interviewing people. DeCarli was a detective with Ferguson police and Zweifel was with Richmond Heights. Through the years, they've called in random leads or thoughts to Lt. Col. John Lankford in St. Ann and Lt. Ed Copeland in St. Charles County, both still assigned to the case. DeCarli, now a captain in Ferguson and commander of the Major Case Squad, stood alongside Lohmar at the recent announcement. Zweifel, now retired, called DeCarli afterward. Both men expressed disbelief, along with relief. "It's so frustrating to get the news and the circumstances around this guy, and the fact that it just never really surfaced is mind-boggling," Zweifel said. "Somebody could have mentioned it just in passing and that would have helped and we would have looked into it." But, DeCarli added, "You've got to have evidence on these people too." The forensic science that implicated Cox wasn't available at the time, DeCarli pointed out. Lohmar stressed during the press conference that breakthroughs in DNA technology dating to mid-2017 were key to extracting the DNA that led to the charges. "It's hard to Monday morning quarterback; things are different nowadays. But you

learn as you go," DeCarli said. "As soon as I heard his name I started wracking my brain, but it was like it fell out of heaven." DeCarli is hoping the release of Cox's name and photos will help bring other cases to justice. "It's waking people up, like, 'Hey don't forget about our cases,'" he said. "Hopefully putting this guy's picture out there, people might call and say, 'He did this to my daughter,' or 'He did this to me.'" Former Ferguson Police Chief Tom Jackson worked the "leads desk" as a sergeant with St. Louis County Police during the investigation into Angie's death. Hundreds of calls and tips from the public poured in. He assigned leads to officers to chase, and tracked down a few himself. No call about Earl Webster Cox ever came in, Jackson said. "If this exact same thing would have happened today, he would have been in an interrogation room immediately," he said. "But we just didn't have the technology back then that we have today." In addition, key locations â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Angie's house, her school, her bus stop, Cox's house, Cox's relatives, his previous arrests â&#x20AC;&#x201D; were situated within about 1 1/2 miles of each other. Yet, those sites spanned three separate municipalities, each with its own police department: Overland, Breckenridge Hills and St. Ann. Communication across jurisdictions was hit-ormiss. Now, patrol officers have access to criminal records through databases on the computers in their cars, Jackson said. Frank Barrow, a St. Ann detective who retired as a captain in 2018, remembers searching the Housman basement, looking in nearby creeks and questioning drivers near her school bus stop. He never saw Cox nor heard the name. Like his fellow detectives, Barrow said it's a relief that the case is solved. But he has lingering questions. Where did the killer keep Angie for nine days before her body was found? Did he act alone?

ACROSS MISSOURI

Medical Marijuana Prescription Reluctance ST. LOUIS (AP) — Missourians looking for physicians to certify them to buy medical marijuana when it becomes available next year are running into resistance from doctors who are reluctant to prescribe the substance. Instead, would-be users are turning to pop-up and specialty clinics advertising certification for about $200 or less. "The simple fact is that most doctors are uninformed about the use of marijuana as medicine," said Dan Viets, the head of the Missouri Medical Cannabis Industry Association. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that Missouri is the 33rd state to legalize marijuana for medical use. In other states, most marijuana patients have been certified by a small number of independent physicians or marijuana-specific clinics, Viets said. The state's physicians' lobby Missouri Medical Association opposed the ballot initiative voters approved in November that legalized medical marijuana. The association isn't taking a stance on whether doctors should certify medical marijuana patients, but isn't recommending it. Marijuana isn't regulated by the Food and Drug Administration and the federal government classifies it as an illegal drug. There are no federally approved standard dosages or safety testing and no insurance coverage. All that is leading some doctors to shy away from certifying patients. "I don't think doctors are hostile," Viets said. "But most doctors work for somebody other than their patients: a hospital or a clinic or some type of corporation, and in many cases it's that corporation which is reluctant." The medical association thinks all treatments and therapies should be studied rigorously and be "evidence based," said Jeff Howell, director of legislative affairs. "Marijuana does not currently meet those standards."

Preserving A Wealth Of Endangered Species In Missouri

HIGHLIGHTS WITH HEGEMAN 12th District State Sen. Dan Hegeman Room 332, State Capitol Jefferson City, MO 65101 Phone: 573-751-1415 dan.hegeman@senate.mo.gov

ADDRESSING MISSOURI’S RISING MEDICAID COSTS As approved by the Missouri General Assembly and signed into law by the governor, the state operating budget for the 2020 fiscal year appropriates $13.53 billion to the departments of Social Services, Mental Health and Health and Senior Services. This is, by a wide margin, the largest category of spending, exceeding the combined total allocated to public education and transportation, the second and third largest areas of the budget, respectively. I believe in the importance of our social service programs. They help Missourians who are least able to help themselves, such as the elderly, the disabled and struggling single parents. But I also believe in being a good steward of taxpayer money. It’s important to keep our social service programs working as efficiently and effectively as possible. We should do what we can to protect our most vulnerable populations without sacrificing other areas of the state budget and without substantially increasing the overall tax burden on Missouri residents. It’s all

about finding a responsible balance that will best serve the interests of the people of our state. Much of our social service spending goes toward Missouri’s Medicaid program. In recent years, the costs of this program have been steadily increasing and now exceed $10 billion per year. This is an ongoing concern that continues to influence the budgetary process. As chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee, I have been closely tracking these developments while working with other state officials to see what we can do to ameliorate this issue. If left unchecked, our state Medicaid program will soon become unsustainable. But if we take appropriate preventive action now, we can protect this vital program for years to come. As always, please feel free to call, email or write with your ideas or concerns. My capitol office number is 573-751-1415, my email address is dan.hegeman@senate.mo.gov and my mailing address is Room 332, State Capitol Building, Jefferson City, MO 65101.

SPALDING, Mo. (AP) — Spalding resident Nan Poage has been conserving a rare salt lick and several endangered species of plants on her property For five generations, Nan Poage's family has lived on property in Ralls County. Its history reaches back to a deed from a Spanish land grant. In May, she showed her natural salt spring to Steve Buback, natural history biologist with the Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC), and they discovered endangered species nearby — including a variety of ditch grass that hasn't been seen in Missouri for 21 years. Buback confirmed the presence of the state's endangered ditch grass species, Ruppia maritima, and credited its presence to Poage's conservation efforts. MDC officials planned to nominate her salt spring — or "lick" — to its Natural Areas Program which highlights the best examples of natural communities around the state. "Your salt spring is truly amazing from both a historical and ecological perspective," Buback wrote to Poage. "Your stewardship of the site is readily apparent, and I appreciate your work to preserve this unique part of Missouri's heritage." There aren't yet any salt springs included in the program, because other examples in the Show-Me State are too degraded or have been filled. The Ruppia maritima flora was first documented by Julian Steyermark in 1938, Buback said. It naturally grows in coastal regions

around the United States and is native to several other countries. MDC personnel documented several other rare plants on Poage's land — including a saltmarsh grass called Distichlis spicata, stiff cowbane, bushy smartweed, cut-leaved geum, yellow water buttercup and Carex hystericina. They are also researching a rare insect believed to be a damselfly collected from the site. The Salt River was named for the numerous salt springs in the area, Poage said. It takes 50 gallons of salt water to produce one gallon of salt. The water in the spring contains 34 different minerals. Native Americans camped on the nearby hills, hunting animals drawn to the spring. She has discovered several arrowheads in the area. The salt trade began in the 1800s when a salt maker with the surname Beauvais brought salt down the Salt River for trade. The land was home to a Victorian hotel in the 1880s-1890s, attracting patrons to "take the water" by soaking in the spring to treat various ailments. A dance hall was active on the property in the 1950s, but a wide variety of rare natural species have thrived on the land for centuries. Poage is proud to help conserve a part of local history that is also home to several rare species of Missouri flora. She stressed the importance of doing her part to keep history alive. "It's a little bit of weight on my shoulders to know that I'm responsible for that," she said. "I want to keep people out of there so they don't destroy it, yet I want people who are interested to be able to know that it is there in Spalding."

Author Inspired By Columbia Class Publishes Book COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP) — When Abby Fulcher recalled her fourth-grade year, she thought about the time a beloved tree outside the window of her Columbia classroom was cut down. Her younger self felt emotional and confused as to why anybody would cut down a tree, especially one her class was so connected to. Lisa Schenker's classroom at Grant Elementary School faced the large pin oak tree in 2006. Schenker, now retired, described the tree as grand and said it felt as though the class was in a treehouse. The class watched the birds and squirrels come and go through the tree, and Schenker used the tree to teach the students about nature and the birds they saw. "The kids just loved this tree," Schenker said. After one of the branches fell onto a dumpster, the pin oak was labeled a hazard, and a cut-down order was issued. Schenker said her students did everything they could to protest, even on the day the tree was taken down. Now, 13 years later, the essence of

the story is the basis of the latest children's chapter book in the "Bea Garcia" series by Deborah Zemke of Columbia, the Columbia Missourian reports. Fulcher, now 22, said it was her and her mom's idea to protest the pin oak's removal. She recalled being moved that her class was able to stand up for what it believed in. She said that at the time, she wanted to give a voice to something that did not have a voice and fight for something that was innocent. Fulcher even remembered her classmates taking slices out of the tree after it was cut down. Schenker said she still has a piece of it in her home. "Before they took the tree down, we went out and we had this celebration in honor of the tree. The kids wrote poems, and the kids wrote letters to the tree," Schenker said. "It was just really, really sad." This tale led Deborah Zemke to write and illustrate the fourth book in her children's chapter book series: "Bea Garcia." Published last month, "Bea Garcia: The Tree and Me" was inspired by the class's effort to save the tree out-

side of the window. Although the book has a happier ending than the true story, the idea of students working together to achieve the goal aligns. "The thing that's nice about art is that you can make the ending any way that you want," Zemke said. Zemke has been the project mentor of the Grant School book project for over 20 years, so she has long been familiar with the treehouse classroom and the story of the pin oak tree. Zemke said she has kept the story in the back of her mind, so when she came to write the fourth book in her series, she thought it would be a great fit in the world of Bea Garcia and her friends. Zemke also said she was inspired by the way Schenker taught — by bringing the outside world into her classroom. It's what Schenker and "other really good teachers" do, she said. "Part of how they're engaging with their students is to interact with the whole world," Zemke said. "The things that they're learning about, writing and science and the environment and art and poetry, aren't something that just

happens within the classroom. You don't have to be 21 to write a story — you don't have to licensed to write a poem. All these tools for expression and communication are within their grasp." Schenker said she still gets choked up when she thinks about the time the tree was cut down. "They were just really emotionally involved with this whole tree thing," she said. "We were just beside ourselves." Fulcher said that at the time she didn't feel young and felt like she could do anything. "Really keeping that spirit alive in kids and nourishing that confidence and young youth activism is important," she said. "It's important to give children a voice and to give the tree a voice." The class raised money to replace the tree, and the new tree stood outside for about a decade. However, when Grant underwent a massive renovation last year, that tree was taken down, too.

Dear Annie: My grandfather was violently abusive to his wife, and then his daughter (my mother), and then to me. He was also very racist -- he punished me for having a black friend in grade school -and just generally cruel. Now, his health is not so good, and his old age has mellowed him out considerably. He can still have temper rages if provoked enough, but most of the time he is calm. The problem is that everyone in my family keeps urging me to spend more time with him "before he's gone." Everyone else is content with sweeping the way he treated us under the rug and brushing it off as "that's just how he is." Even my mom adores him, despite the things he did to her. The thing is that I have no desire to see him again. I've visited before out of familial obligation, and I was uncomfortable the whole time. He's never apologized for his behavior or the way he treated us, and he still thinks everything is either his way or the highway. I don't wish him any ill will, I just don't want to see him. Am I wrong to feel this way? --

Guilted Granddaughter Dear Guilted: The answer to the question "Am I wrong to feel this way?" is always no. Feelings, in themselves, are never wrong. It is our actions that fall under the categories of right and wrong, actions such as behaving cruelly and abusively toward vulnerable people. What your grandfather did -- not just across years but across generations -- was wrong. And it's easier for your family to engage in collective amnesia than to acknowledge that it happened. It sounds as though you've made peace with this traumatic history and aren't harboring any anger toward him -- that you've made the decision not to see him out of love for yourself, not hatred for him. I commend you for doing all the emotional legwork it must have taken to reach that point. Hopefully, your mom will understand and meet you where you are eventually. In the meantime, know that you are not wrong. Dear Annie: I read with interest the letter from the brother whose sister has Obsessive-Compulsive Personal-

Facebook has changed how the world communicates online and now wants to remake the global financial system, too. The social networking company has unveiled an ambitious plan for a new digital currency similar to Bitcoin. If it takes off, the effort could threaten banks and national currencies. It could also, in Facebook’s view, open e-commerce and financial services to people who don’t currently have access to them, especially in developing countries, or elsewhere because of high fees and other obstacles. But there are many hurdles, including mounting concerns about the way Facebook handles

ity Disorder. My husband has that diagnosis. He was motivated to change because, although he had no insight into his behavior, he wanted to keep our marriage intact. He had therapy with a fantastic therapist (I went with him sometimes) with no appreciable change, over two years. The therapist referred him to an excellent psychiatrist, who diagnosed him with OCPD. The only way to treat this disorder is with medication. My husband takes an anti-depressant, not for depression but because it's an off-label treatment. And it works! It's not perfect; he still is stubborn and compulsive/rigid sometimes, but it changed the whole dynamic for the better. And he has some insight into his behavior, best of all. Our marriage has been terrific for many years now. I realize the sister is not motivated, but perhaps all her unpleasant consequences could motivate her to go to a psychiatrist. Hope so! -- Been There, Came Out the Other Side Dear Been There: Changing the dynamic from rigid to a little more relaxed is wonderful, and I congratulate you and your husband for keeping at it and finding a good psychiatrist who really helped. Thanks for sharing your story.

people’s personal information and the immense power it already holds over society. Facebook is taking the lead on building Libra and its underlying technology; its more than two dozen partners (including Uber and MasterCard) will help fund, build and govern the system. What concerns many about Libra is the potential to amass a trove of social and financial data — and anything else that can be inferred from that — about what the nonprofit Privacy International describes as “some of the world’s most vulnerable people.” Sure, there are safeguards. But can Facebook and its partner companies be trusted to foresee the inevitable problems that will arise?

Another cryptocurrency? Facebook hopes to roll out its own digital currency like Bitcoin, but the company’s problems will make the task challenging.
