Kansas City, Mo. – Heavy rains prompted brief opening of Kansas City's emergency operations center. The Tiller Clinic in Wichita closed today by order of the George Tiller family. One of three finalists to become the next Missouri commissioner of education is Dennis Cheek, vice president of the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation.

Congress just eliminated federal funding for KCUR, but public radio is for the people.
