The 2019 North Central Missouri Fair kicked off activities over the weekend with a rodeo on Friday and Saturday night as well as a tractor pull on Sunday afternoon. Achievement Day activities in which local 4-H members entered exhibits took place on Monday along with a chicken barbecue competition. The fair continues through Saturday, with a parade, grandstand shows, a horse show and livestock judging taking place throughout the week.
Potential charter members for the newly-formed “Art’s Alive” group are being invited to attend an August meeting when information about ongoing efforts to revitalize an arts program in the area will be shared. The meeting will be held at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 20 in the Sugg Room of the Ketcham Community Center on the campus of North Central Missouri College. All interested persons are encouraged to attend. A community group of around 15 to 20 persons has been meeting once a month since April to put together an
organization that would spearhead efforts to bring back the arts to Grundy County and the surrounding area. Phil Schlarb, retired NCMC professor emeritus, has been leading the meetings, during which time work has been done to come up with a name for the organization as well as putting together by-laws and a constitution and working on other items which need to be in place before actual programming can be determined and scheduled. One of the decisions made by the group is establishment See Arts, Page 3

Crews worked throughout the weekend to clean up 70-plus Union Pacific Railroad cars that derailed near Mercer on Thursday. The cars were carrying sand, which spilled along the tracks at the wreckage site. No one was reported hurt. The train was traveling to Ft. Worth, TX from Butler, WI. The cause of the derailment has not yet been determined.
Activities Set For Aug. 30-Sept. 1
Long-Time THS Instructor Is Alumni Honoree Making a selection as the 2019 Trenton High School alumni honoree was a difficult one for the Class of 1994 as many teachers and staff members were deserving and considered for the honor. To allow for each voice to be heard, class members were invited to vote for their choice and with a fantastic class response to the privilege, retired instructor Barbara Spencer was chosen for the honor. “It is a great honor to know the students I have had want me to represent them as the 2019 alumni honoree,” Mrs. Spencer said. “When assessing an individual’s time on earth, a person spends very little time in the classroom. But the short time in a classroom can mean the difference between a positive or negative outlook on life. Hopefully, I have created a positive outlook for my former students.” A graduate of Princeton High School, Barbara Higdon Spencer’s road to higher education continued to Trenton Junior College, where she graduated with an associate of arts degree. At Northeast Missouri State University she earned a bachelor of science degree in English education, a bachelor of science degree in sociology and certification in speech and theater. And it didn’t stop there. Mrs. Spencer went on to earn her master’s degree in English education from Truman State University (formerly Northeast Missouri State University) and also a certification in library science. This life-long learner began her own teach-
ing career in the Jameson School District and was later employed by the Trenton R-9 School System, a love for teaching that lasted for 29 years. Upon her retirement, she was asked to become the librarian for the Laredo Elementary School District, a position she held for two years. Still not quite ready to retire, Mrs. Spencer completed her classroom teaching assignments at North Central Missouri College and retired in 2017. While at THS, Mrs. Spencer taught English I, II and III; British literature, speech, alternative English, forensics, theater, composition and sociology. In addition to classroom responsibilities, she instructed the colorguard, was a sponsor for the junior class, cheerleaders and the National Forensics League and directed theater performances, colorguard and forensics. Mrs. Spencer said she was most proud of forensics, a program that she was initially hesitant about, but privileged to see the successes generated. Superintendent Dr. Gary Howren approached Mrs. Spencer about the program and, after the initial competition she and her students attended, she still felt lost but along with her participants, they agreed to continue learning and the benefits soon paid off. By the end of the first year, both the students and Mrs. Spencer were excited and the results were worthwhile. She said that during the many years of competition in the National Forensics League, she was fortunate to have many students advance to state competitions. One com-
National Weather Service Partly cloudy with the high on Tuesday and Wednesday in the low 80s and lows in the low 60s. There is a 40 percent chance of rain on Thursday morning, the high around 84. The high at Trenton on Friday was 87, Saturday’s high was 90 and Sunday’s high was 89 with an overnight low of 68. There was also .72 of an inch of rain recorded overnight. Sunday’s high at Spickard was 88, the low was 66 and 1.33 inches of rain was recorded.
peted in the national tournament, surviving in four of the six rounds of competition before being eliminated. Mrs. Spencer said alternative English was perhaps the most enjoyable class. She was allowed to create the curriculum goals for students who might not remain in school after turning 16 or without plans for higher education. As a result, students were taught basic life skills with an English emphasis, including reading and understanding bills, maintaining a budget and a bank account, employment readiness, job interviewing, locating county services where services are available, if needed, and how to travel outside of Trenton. She said the outof-area visits ended when a trip to the Kansas City airport on 9/11 occurred and all school visits to airports were stopped. A busy and dedicated individual like Mrs. Spencer didn’t really retire. Since leaving the classroom, she has worked for Preferred Family Health on a part-time basis in drug and alcohol rehabilitation. She was also employed by the Community Action Agency as a program recruiter and, after four years, her first grandchild was born and she became a grandmother and a happy babysitter of Owen, and then Carly, until they began attending school. Other involvement has included extensive dedication to the Church Women United Thrift Shop, the Green Hills Women’s Shelter, Friends of the Library, the Grundy County Museum, the Dorcas Richardson Chapter of the Daughters

Trenton Football Camp
Plenty Of Classroom Time For Bulldogs At Team Camp When football camp opened for the Trenton Bulldogs last week, the familiar sounds of players counting out reps and the crack of pads hitting pads were nowhere to be heard. In fact, the practice fields were quiet. Inside Trenton High School, however, the squeaks of a marker on white board re-
placed the traditional football camp noises. New Head Coach Kevin Hixson was busy in his first camp with the Trenton Bulldogs. He used the annual week-long, preseason get-together to incorporate his new offenses and defenses - writing everything up in a classroom setting before incorporating it

across the street on the field. “It was a lot of learning,� Hixson said. “We spent probably an hour on the whiteboard in the classroom. It’s a lot of stuff to digest. It’s not a whole lot different than what they have done in the past, but the numbering system and stuff like that is a little different. The handled it pretty well, though, and adapted. By Friday, we were running on air and looked pretty good.� The Bulldog camp served as the first real football activities for the squad under Hixson, save for a few training and 7on-7 sessions the week prior and weight training that began at the beginning of June. Despite the heavy time spent in the classroom, Trenton did see plenty of time on the practice fields during the week. After getting through the initial work on the offense, Trenton added defense to the mix on Wednesday, halfway through the week-long camp. While the offense was looking sharp by the end of the week, Trenton still has a way to go on the defensive front. “Defensively we have a lot of work to do,� Hixson said. “We installed our defense on Wednesday. You know, there are a lot of aspects to it, not just individually position-wise, but as an entire unit.� Trenton had mixed player numbers through the week, ranging from the mid-30’s into the 40’s. The Bulldogs hope to

see numbers and wins rise this year. After winning the Grand River Conference title in their inaugural season in the league, Trenton slipped to a four-win season the following year and won just three games last season. As the wins dwindled, so did Trenton’s numbers. All-in-all, however, Hixson was generally pleased with his first camp at Trenton. “For the most part they worked hard, adapted pretty well and we conditioned them
pretty good,� Hixson said. “They lifted in the morning and had camp at night, so they put in a good week’s worth of work.� Trenton departed for Indianola, IA on Monday morning as the Bulldogs once again are attending the football camp at Simpson College. “This gives us an opportunity, with what we have in and what we’ve put together, to go and compete,� Hixson said. “We scrimmage against
Auburn, NE and then we have a couple of teams from Iowa on the docket. It just gives us an opportunity to go out, rally to the ball and it should just be a good physical practice for us up there.� Trenton’s first game of the season will come on Friday, Aug. 30 when the Bulldogs play host to the Lathrop Mules - the defending state runnersup at the Class 2 level. The game at C.F. Russell Stadium is scheduled for a 7 p.m. start.

NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE
MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — Brooks Koepka turned his final-round duel with Rory McIlroy into a runaway for his first World Golf Championships title. Koepka had three birdies in a four-hole stretch on the front nine Sunday to take the lead and never trailed the rest of the way, closing with a 5-under 65 for a three-shot victory. Koepka finished at 16under 264 and earned $1.745 million.
Chiefs Training Camp
Chiefs’ Hill Contrite, Repentant ST. JOSEPH, Mo. (AP) — Tyreek Hill was contrite but repentant in his first comments since he was banished from the Kansas City Chiefs following an audio recording in which his then-fiancee accused him of hurting their son. The star wide receiver declined Sunday to discuss the specifics of his case, which wound to a conclusion late last week when the NFL declined to punish him for violating the league's personal conduct policy. But he did apologize for the precarious situation he left the Chiefs in this past offseason. "I've learned to just appreciate those around me," Hill said after the Chiefs' second workout of training camp at Missouri Western. "I feel like I take that for granted sometimes, being a professional athlete. I tend to not stay humble, you know what I'm saying? I still love my kids and I still love my family, but I feel like sometimes I take all of
those things for granted." The Chiefs were poised to make their first selection in the NFL draft when the graphic, secretly taped audio of Hill and Crystal Espinal aired on a local TV station. The Chiefs quickly suspended the twotime All-Pro from all team-related activities and, uncertain of Hill's future with the organization, used a second-round pick on speedy wide receiver Mecole Hardman. Hill remained barred from the team during voluntary summer workouts and the Chiefs' mandatory minicamp, even after the local district attorney decided there was not enough evidence to pursue charges. The NFL was still weighing whether to punish Hill under terms of its personal conduct policy when it sent investigators to Kansas City late last month. During an eight-hour session, Hill supplied the league with his side of the story, laying out the facts from
ASAP Locksmith
his point of view. "(Commissioner) Roger Goodell and his team did their thing. They dug in, got all the facts, and I'm very appreciative of those guys as well," Hill said. "The meeting was long. It was probably the longest meeting of my life. It was crazy. What I was trying to get across was just the facts, man." The NFL ultimately decided late last week that it would not punish Hill, and the Chiefs immediately announced that his team-issued suspension was lifted and he would be reporting to training camp. He was not available to reporters during check-in day Friday, nor did Hill speak following the Chiefs' first practice Saturday. But he was carried to the practice field by a chorus of fans chanting "Tyreek! Tyreek!" in what could only be described as a groundswell of support. It was a 180-degree turn from the sentiments most fans had just a few months ago. "The love feels good, to come back out here and get a chance," Hill said. "I'm on a new journey as far as me growing as a father and as a human."

LOCAL FUNERALS Madolyn Ruth Collins Funeral services for Madolyn Ruth Collins were held at 2 p.m. on Friday, July 26, 2019 at the Resthaven Mortuary in Trenton. Rev. Don Snyder officiated.

“Have Thine Own Way Lord.� Pallbearers were Matthew Stevens, Michael Stevens, Jordan Collins, Ben Collins, Reed Collins, Caleb Collins, Scott Smith, Mason Mershon and Ward Mershon.

Robin Dennert Gives Program The Senior Life Solutions program, offered locally through the Saint Luke’s Health System, was the topic of the program presented at the Thursday, July 25 meeting of the Trenton Rotary Club. Dave Bain was the program chairman, with the program being introduced by Jordan Ferguson. Robin Dennert, who directs the program at Wright Memorial Hospital, said Senior Life Solutions is an outpatient group therapy program that “meets the unique needs of older adults� dealing with such issues as anxiety, depression, grief and loss or transitions related to the aging process. She said because individuals are living longer, there is a growing need for such a program.
Signs that an individual age 65 or older might benefit from the program include low self-esteem, loneliness, sadness, a lack of energy/interest, a change in sleeping/eating patterns, slowing of motor skills, crying, etc. The consequences of not dealing with these issues include an increased risk of illness as well as an increased risk of suicide. Physician referrals are not necessary, however, a confidential assessment will be done to see if the individual would benefit from the program’s services. If accepted, participants meet three times a week in a group setting. Individual counseling also takes place. The Aug. 1 club meeting will be a work session.

AP Fact Check: Some Inconvenient Truths For 2020 Democrats WASHINGTON (AP) — The Democratic presidential contenders have some inconvenient truths to grapple with. It's not easy, for example, to summon foreboding words on the economy — accurately — when the U.S. has been having its longest expansion in history. Health care for all raises questions of costs to average taxpayers that the candidates are loath to confront head on. And in slamming President Donald Trump relentlessly for his treatment of migrants, the Democrats gloss over the record of President Barack Obama (and his vice president, Joe Biden), whose administration deported them by the millions and housed many children in the border "cages" they assail Trump for using now. The candidates will be pressed on the economy, health care, immigration and much more in their second round of debates, this week in Detroit. A sampling of the campaign rhetoric on a variety of subjects and how it compares with the facts: THE CAGES KAMALA HARRIS: "You look at the fact that this is a president who has pushed policies that's been about putting babies in cages at the border in the name of security when in fact what it is, is a human rights abuse being committed by the United States government." — remarks at NAACP forum Wednesday in Detroit. PETE BUTTIGIEG: "We should call out hypocrisy when we see it. For a party that associates itself with Christianity to say it is OK to suggest that God would smile on the division of families at the hands of federal agents, that God would condone putting children in cages," that party "has lost all claim to ever use religious language." — June debate. THE FACTS: There is hypocrisy to be called out here. By Buttigieg's standard, the Democratic Party has also lost its claim to invoke religion — because the "cages" were built and used by the Obama administration. Harris, a California senator, calls them a human rights abuse, but, like other Democrats, solely blames Trump. The facilities are sectioned-off, chain-link indoor pens where children who come to the border without adults or who are separated from adults in detention are temporarily housed. The children are divided by age and sex. A year ago, Associated Press photographs showing young people in such enclosures were misrepresented online as depicting child detentions by Trump and denounced by some Democrats and activists as illustrating Trump's cruelty. In fact, the photos were taken in 2014 during the Obama administration. Many Democrats continue to exploit the imagery of "babies in cages" — as Harris put it — without acknowledging Obama used the facilities, too. His administration built the McAllen, Texas, center with chain-link holding areas in 2014. Under Trump, journalists have witnessed migrants crowded into fetid chain-link quarters. The maltreatment of migrants is the responsibility of the Trump administration — and arguably Congress, for not approving more money for better care. But the facilities are standard fare through administrations and the caged-babies accusations stand as one of the most persistent distortions by the 2020 Democrats. ******************** JOE BIDEN: "Under Trump, there have been horrifying scenes at the border of kids being kept in cages, tear-gassing asylum seekers, ripping children from their mothers' arms." — June 24 opinion piece in the Miami Herald about his Latin America policy. THE FACTS: Again, the scenes of kids in cages go back to the administration Biden served. He is correct that U.S. authorities have fired
tear gas to repel migrants trying to get across the border. Biden and other Democrats are also correct in identifying widespread family separations as a consequence of Trump's policy. His now-suspended zero-tolerance policy resulted in thousands of children being removed from their parents in holding centers, something the Obama administration did not do routinely. Another form of family separation was seen, however, in the Obama years. The record deportation of 3 million migrants during Obama's presidency drove many families apart as some members were forced out of the U.S. while loved ones weren't. ******************** IMMIGRATION BIDEN: "There's 11 million undocumented (people), they've increased the solvency of the Social Security system by 12 years, because they're all paying in." — candidate forum in Iowa, July 16. THE FACTS: He's wrong that "all" people in the country illegally are paying into Social Security and that they've extended the program's solvency by a dozen years. He's right, though, that they help the nation's retirement program because millions do contribute to it and they are not permitted to draw benefits. According to a 2013 Social Security Administration report , the most recent of its kind, roughly 3 million immigrants living in the U.S. illegally were contributing to Social Security through their work. Others were not working or were employed in the underground economy. Biden is correct in suggesting that illegal immigration has significantly boosted the program. His campaign clarified to The Associated Press that he misspoke when he said people in the country illegally increased Social Security's solvency by 12 years. He meant to say they've added $12 billion to Social Security's finances. They've actually supported the Social Security system by even more than that. The agency's 2013 report estimated the system gained $12 billion from immigrants and their employers over just one year, 2010. Employers and workers evenly split the 12.4 percent contribution to the system. Another government estimate says "half of undocumented immigrants are working on the books" but that may be outdated; it's from 2005. ******************** HEALTH CARE BERNIE SANDERS: "'Medicare for All' would reduce overall health care spending in our country." — July 17 speech on his health plan. THE FACTS: That remains to be seen. Savings from Medicare for All are not a slam dunk. The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office said in a report this year that total spending under a single-payer system, such as the one proposed by the Vermont senator, "might be higher or lower than under the current system depending on the key features of the new system." Those features involve payment rates for hospitals and doctors, which are not fully spelled out by Sanders, as well as the estimated cost of generous benefits that include long-term care services and no copays and deductibles. Sanders' figure of $5 trillion over 10 years in health cost savings comes from a study by the Political Economy Research Institute at the University of Massachusetts-Amherst. The lead author has been a Sanders political supporter. Sanders also cites a savings estimate of $2 trillion over 10 years taken from a study from the libertarian Mercatus Center at George Mason University in Virginia. But the author of that study says that Medicare for All advocates are mischaracterizing his conclusions. A report this year by the nonprofit Rand think tank estimated that Medicare for All would do the opposite of what Sanders is promising, modestly raising national health spending.
Part of the reason is the generous benefits. Virtually free comprehensive medical care would lead to big increases in demand. The Rand study modeled a hypothetical scenario in which a plan similar to Sanders' legislation had taken effect this year. ******************** SANDERS, on the effects of his health plan and other expensive proposals on the public: "Yes, they will pay more in taxes but less in health care." — June debate. THE FACTS: This is almost surely true. Although he had to be pressed on the question, Sanders is almost alone among the candidates who support Medicare for All in acknowledging that broadly higher taxes would be needed to pay for it. He would consider — and probably not be able to avoid — a tax increase on the middle class in exchange for health care without copayments, deductibles and the like. It's a given that consumers will pay less for health care if the government is picking up the bills. Several of Sanders' rivals have dodged the tough financing questions, speaking only of taxing rich people and "Wall Street." Analysts say that's not going to cover the costs of government-financed universal care. ******************** ECONOMY ELIZABETH WARREN: "When I look at the economy today, I see a lot to worry about. ... I see a manufacturing sector in recession. ... A generation of stagnant wages and rising costs for basics like housing, child care, and education (has) forced American families to take on more debt than ever before.... Whether it's this year or next year, the odds of another economic downturn are high — and growing." — Medium blog Monday. THE FACTS: The Massachusetts senator is exaggerating some of these threats. It's true that U.S. manufacturers are struggling as a result of slower overseas growth and the Trump administration's trade wars, which have meant that many U.S. goods face retaliatory tariffs overseas. But U.S. factories have faced rough spots before during the current expansion, particularly in late 2015 and 2016, when their output actually declined. Yet economic growth continued. Manufacturing is no longer large enough to necessarily pull the rest of the economy into recession. And Americans are in better financial shape than Warren suggests. While household debt has risen 6.8% in the past decade, that figure isn't adjusted for population growth or inflation. On a per capita basis, household debt levels have actually fallen. Economists typically compare debt with income as a way of gauging Americans' ability to pay off their loans. Currently such household debt is equivalent to 101% of disposable income. While that number may seem high, it actually peaked at 136% in the fourth quarter of 2007, just as the recession began, and has fallen steadily since. Also, interest rates are at historically low levels, making it easier for borrowers to manage their debts. Currently, households are devoting less than 10% of their incomes to debt service, down from roughly 13% a decade ago. As for what she calls a manufacturing recession, that's a judgment call, not a clearly defined standard. Factory output actually has risen slightly over the past year. She defines a manufacturing recession as two straight declines in quarterly production as measured by the Federal Reserve, and that's what happened in the first half of this year. ******************** HARRIS: "People are working, they're working two and three jobs. In our America people should only have to work one job to have a roof over their head and be able to put food on their table." — July 12 radio interview. THE FACTS: Most Americans, by far, only
work one job, and the numbers who juggle more than one have declined over a quarter century. In the mid-1990s, the percentage of workers holding multiple jobs peaked at 6.5%. The rate dropped significantly , even through the Great Recession, and has been hovering for a nearly a decade at about 5% or a little lower. In the latest monthly figures , from June, 5.2% of workers were holding more than one job. Hispanic and Asian workers are consistently less likely than white and black workers to be holding multiple jobs. Women are more likely to be doing so than men, though the gap narrowed slightly during Trump's first year. Multiple jobholding rates in June 2019 : women, 5.6%; men, 4.6%; black, 5.1%; white, 5.2%; Hispanic, 3.7%; Asian, 3.0%. Kirsten Allen, speaking for the Harris campaign, said the senator often hears from people who have to work more than one job to make ends meet, "teachers specifically," and has a plan for teachers to be paid more. But in her rhetoric about Americans "working two and three jobs," Harris does not make that distinction. ******************** LAW ENFORCEMENT BUTTIGIEG: "When I took office, we had no recognizable promotion or accountability system for promotions in the department. We couldn't even find and publish numbers on cases involving use of force. So we started doing that."— at the NAACP forum Wednesday in Detroit. THE FACTS: Those changes at the South Bend, Indiana, Police Department, which Buttigieg oversees as the mayor, didn't happen swiftly or without prompting. Buttigieg fired his police chief shortly after he became mayor in 2012 and installed a new one. But it wasn't until September 2018 that the city established a promotion policy, following a 2015 complaint from a female officer who said she was passed over for a promotion and complaints in 2016 from two black officers who said they were held back from promotions at the police agency, according to local news reports. The city didn't begin publishing use of force data — which shows how many times an officer used force on a civilian — until 2017, five years after Buttigieg got into office and after complaints about police brutality, including a federal lawsuit that was settled in 2018. ******************** AUTO INDUSTRY HARRIS: "Some estimate that as many as 700,000 autoworkers are going to lose their job before the end of the year." — remarks in July 12 radio interview. THE FACTS: This isn't happening. Harris mischaracterized the findings of a study that is also outdated. In July 2018 the Center for Automotive Research laid out a variety of scenarios for potential job losses across all U.S. industries touched by the auto business — not just autoworkers — if a number of new tariffs and policies that Trump threatened were enacted. The worst case was 750,000. But those hypothetical losses went well beyond autoworkers, to include workers at restaurants, retail stores and any business that benefits from the auto industry. In any event, the center revised its study in February 2019, with a worst-case scenario down to 367,000 job losses across all industries. And since then, the administration lifted tariffs on steel and aluminum products coming from Canada and Mexico, further minimizing the impact on the auto industry. The auto industry has grown under Obama and Trump both. Although it's facing a leveling off in demand, it still posts strong numbers. It is not at risk of the catastrophe Harris raises as a possibility — the loss of 3 in 4 autoworkers in the remainder of this year.

ACROSS MISSOURI
Kander Back After Quietly Working Through PTSD KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Not so many months ago, Jason Kander was spending his life on airplanes. The picture of youth and energy, Kander was in demand from Democratic groups across the U.S., a military veteran from middle America making a powerful case for generational change in his party, possibly with an eye toward a 2020 presidential run. But beneath the swagger, something inside Kander's head weighed on him — nightmares, paranoia, even suicidal thoughts. Like so many veterans, he was carrying the unspoken burden of post-traumatic stress disorder, and suddenly last fall he detailed his personal struggles and dropped from public view. Now, Kander is re-emerging with a healthier mental state and a new focus on helping other veterans, leading the national expansion of a program in his hometown of Kansas City, Missouri, called Veterans Community Project. At the same time he's easing back into the fringes of politics — doing national TV interviews, appearing with Democratic presidential hopeful Pete Buttigieg during the candi-
date's visit to Kansas City (though he hasn't endorsed any specific candidate), and talking candidly about his experience reconciling trauma, healing and political ambition. "I feel the best I've felt in a very, very long time," Kander told The Associated Press. "I'm really enjoying life." Kander, 38, spent about four months as an Army intelligence officer in Afghanistan in late 2006 and early 2007. He said his duties often left him isolated and alone with just a translator, sometimes in rooms with people "who presented a potential threat, and not knowing if I was going to get out of those rooms." Soon after his deployment he began suffering troubling symptoms — the sadness, the anxiety, the constant looking over the shoulder for enemies who weren't there. "I can tell you that for a long time, what I told myself was that because there hadn't been the stereotypical singular, traumatic event, I couldn't possibly have earned the right to call it post-traumatic stress," he said. He brushed aside any mental health concerns during a fast political ascent. Kander was just 27 when he
was elected to the Missouri House in 2008. Four years later, he was elected Missouri secretary of state. It was his 2016 run for the Senate that caught the eye of national political observers, thanks in part to a stunning ad in which he assembled a rifle blindfolded while discussing his support for background checks for gun owners. At campaign events, he spoke often about his military career and called for a new generation of leadership in Washington. It almost worked. Kander lost by less than 3 percentage points to incumbent Republican Roy Blunt in increasingly conservative Missouri, a state Donald Trump carried by 19 percentage points in the presidential race. A future run for president, perhaps in 2020, wasn't farfetched. Asked on his last day in office about a rising Democratic star, former President Barack Obama replied, "My guy in Missouri. Kander." So it was surprising when, in June 2018, Kander announced he was running for Kansas City mayor. He now says it was, in part, acknowledgement that "something was
Missouri Restricts Dentists’ Prescriptions Of Opioids KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — A new Missouri law limits the amount and types of pain medications that dentists can prescribe after studies found painkillers prescribed following routine dental work are contributing to a national epidemic of opioid addiction. Gov. Mike Parson signed the bill this month that directs dentists to prescribe no opioids more than the equivalent of 10 regular Vicodin pills per day and to prescribe no extended-release opioids such as OxyContin at all. Dan Kessler, the president of the Missouri Dental Association, said the trade group worked with lawmakers on the language in the bill. "I think we all are for limitations and not over-prescribing or not even using things like hydrocodone," Kessler told The Kansas City Star. Dentists who step outside the requirements of the new law will have to document why in the patient's medical record. The documentation exception exists for patients who have built up a tolerance to opioids and need more to effectively relieve pain.
If the dentists don't make a record of prescriptions outside the bounds of the new law, the state's dental board could investigate and potentially pull their license, Kessler said. "I hate to say it's on the honor system, but it kind of is," Kessler said. "But if you're a repeat offender and things happen, like people are OD'ing on it, then you're exposed." The American Dental Association says dentists prescribed 6.4% of all U.S. opioid prescriptions in 2012. Meanwhile, a study published in JAMA Internal Medicine in December showed dentist opioid prescriptions play a significant role in adolescent and young adult addiction. The study found that people age 16 to 25 whose first opioids were prescribed by a dentist are more than 10 times more likely than their peers to be diagnosed with opioid abuse within a year. Teens and young adults are more susceptible to addiction because their brains are still developing, and dentists are the most frequent opioid prescribers for adolescents because that's when most people have their wisdom teeth removed.
not right." "My plan was to come home, become mayor and serve my neighbors and my community and I thought that would have a redemptive quality to it," Kander said. "But I also thought I was going to come home and have treatment at the VA." But as he campaigned last year, Kander failed to seek help "for the same reasons I hadn't in the past — I was worried about the stigma, I was worried about how it would affect my political career. That just allowed things to get much, much worse," he said. One night, things got so bad that he phoned a suicide hotline for veterans. Days later, on Oct. 2, he dropped out of the race with a statement acknowledging his PTSD. For several months, Kander dealt with his issues quietly. He began weekly counseling sessions at the VA, including therapy that involved talking at length about the trauma until "you get to the point where you don't feel like you're re-experiencing it each time." He confronted behaviors that had become all too common, such as how he couldn't sit in a restaurant with his back to the
door. The therapy began to work. The weekly counseling sessions became monthly, then every six weeks. "Now, it's sort of informally, every couple of months," Kander said. Retired Army Lt. Col. Jim Craig, coordinator of the University of Missouri-St. Louis' Veteran Studies program, said Kander's progress is a testament to the therapies developed at the VA over the past decade. "This is a public figure we've seen going into therapy and come out of therapy on the back end, fully functioning and ready to go," Craig said. Kander's involvement with Veterans Community Project began as a client. Even with a law degree and years of government experience, he was "a little bit overwhelmed" by the confusing maze of paperwork and bureaucracy as he sought help through the VA. He turned to the group's outreach center, which matches veterans with needed services at no charge. Soon, he was volunteering there. The project's co-founder and CEO Bryan Meyer said that when the organization decided to go national, Kander,

Kander isn't ruling out an eventual return to politics, but not in the near future, including 2020. If he runs for office again, Kander's honesty in confronting his PTSD will make him even more electable, said Patrick Murphy, an Iraq War veteran who served as a Democratic congressman from Pennsylvania and undersecretary of the Army under Obama. "I think the American people want authentic leaders," Murphy said. "Jason Kander is not just a combat veteran but he's an inspirational and authentic leader who has a lot to offer in political public service."

Those gunning for impeachment are the same folks who want to enact so-called “Medicare for All,” the “Green New Deal,” and other disastrous legislation that would destroy Medicare, start a total socialist takeover of our economy, and open our borders to illegal immigrants. This is about turning back the clock on all the economic progress we’ve made over the last few years. This is about pushing forward a radical agenda that will set America back years, if not decades. Instead of continuing these theatrics and wasting more time, the House needs to get back to doing the peoples’ work. There are plenty of real problems we should be working on fixing—like making sure folks have the help they need to recover from the Flood of 2019, securing our border, and fixing our nation’s crumbling infrastructure. It is my hope that after today, the House can finally get back to doing the work of the American people.

Dear Annie: I'm a grandmother to five children. My son Brian and his wife, Amanda, have a 3-year-old and a 6-month-old together. They live several states away, about a five-hour drive. I get to see them close to once a month, though, as they continually ask me to watch the kids while they go on vacation. When their baby was only 3 months old, they took a trip to a resort in Mexico. Personally, I would never leave an infant, so I don't understand their desire to leave so often. Now they're going on a weeklong cruise, and I'll be baby-sitting again. I don't mind watching the grandkids. I love them to the moon and back, and really, I appreciate how nice it is that I get to spend time with them, especially while they're still little and thrilled to see their grandma. But I think it's getting out of hand, and I feel as if my son and daughter-in-law think I don't have a life of my own. Am I being ridiculous? - Frustrated Grandma Dear Frustrated: Here's a word that will change your life: "No." Try using it the next time your son and his wife are daydreaming of making a tropical getaway and leaving you in charge of their home life. Giving in to their requests all the time will leave you feeling taken advantage of and resentful. And that's a surefire way to damage your relationship with your son. Set boundaries. Dear Annie: I am dating Jacob, a man I met online two years ago. Soon after we connected online, I broke it off with the guy I had been seeing and flew to meet Jacob in Utah, where he lives. We hit it off and decided to start a longdistance relationship. (I live on the East Coast.) Things were great for the

first few months. Then we started fighting almost every day, mostly about small stuff; he wasn't calling me enough and hadn't visited me (when I had visited him twice). We worked out a better routine, and he started visiting me every few months. But now I'm dealing with some other issues. Jacob is Mormon. (I'm not religious.) He isn't fully committed to his faith anymore, but he still goes to church every week and has a lot of friends from that community. One of these friends is a woman who is about his age (he's 40) and has taken to sending me threatening Facebook messages about how I am "bad" and Jacob is a "good man" who deserves "a nice Mormon girl." She makes me feel like a terrible person, and I've never even met this lady! I brought this up with Jacob, but he continues to act as if everything is fine when he sees this woman in group settings. He said he doesn't want to confront her, because they have so many friends in common. I wish he would tell her to stop. He just laughs it off and says, "That's just how Mary is. Don't worry about her." Well, I do worry! -- Secular Girlfriend Dear Secular: Mormon or not, Jacob should not be allowing anyone to harass you in any way. If he is allowing this to go on from across the country, I shudder to think what he would tolerate if you lived in the same city. It sounds as if he either does not have much of a backbone to stick up for you or he does not care enough to. Move on and try to find a new boyfriend. Dear Annie: All of a sudden, I found myself being the only single one in my group of close girlfriends. I'm totally fine with being single right now; we are all second-year

law school students and have a lot going on. I've just been focusing on school and myself since getting out of a four-year relationship last year. I'm just along for the ride! My friends are at different stages in their relationships. Two are in semi-long-term relationships (one to three years). Two are in the puppy love phase. And one is just past the puppy love phase, aka the veil-is-lifted phase, aka we'll see how that goes. We all hang out as a group often -- significant others included -- and I'm usually included on other plans. But other times, I feel totally ditched. One of my friends hangs all over her boyfriend when the three of us are out. And another has become flaky and noncommittal about making plans for just the two of us. I'm all about their having fun and getting swept up in the whirlwind of romance; it's a great feeling. But flakiness is my biggest pet peeve. My feelings are starting to get hurt. Should I talk to them about this or just give them some space? -- Single Lady Law Student Dear Single Lady: What's with the attitude? Your friends are in committed and loving relationships, and your overall reaction is "we'll see how that goes"? Perhaps you need to examine your own pessimism toward relationships. If you're still holding on to the heartache of your breakup, keeping your defenses up, you're only hurting yourself. As for your friends -- talk to them. These "smitten kittens" may not even realize they've left you by the wayside. If you approach them about it and they continue not to be mindful, take some space and mingle in different social circles. Things will normalize eventually. And if not, you'll always have Beyonce.

Big tech insists it’s tiny In an April call with analysts, Facebook’s no. 2 executive Sheryl Sandberg outlined the company’s “solid growth” in all regions, its broadening advertising base and further expansion of its already massive user base. But when Matt Perault, Facebook’s head of global policy development, testified before Congress earlier this month, he struck a very different tone. Perault listed all the ways Facebook is actually an underdog that couldn’t possibly have monopoly power. The company, he said, takes in less than a quarter of U.S. advertising spending. Citing a figure from research firm IDC, Perault noted that some 92 percent of advertising
happens “off Facebook.” It’s true that Facebook doesn’t dominate advertising, neither overall (meaning online and off) nor solely in digital ads (that would be Google). But while Google’s share of the digital ad market is expected to decline slightly, Facebook’s has been increasing each year and is expected to continue to rise, according to research firm eMarketer. Amazon’s representative made similar claims before a House Judiciary Committee panel. Nate Sutton, an associate general counsel at the company, told lawmakers that Amazon only accounts for 1% of the global retail market and just 4% of U.S. retail.
