One day after Savannah Nash celebrated her 16th birthday on May 8, she picked up her Missouri driver’s license. One week later, she died in a traffic accident.

Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon is busy behind the scenes

Jay Nixon is a hands-off governor. That’s the word in the statehouse.

Every now and then after the intermission of a concert, you have to ask yourself if you are listening to the same performers.
