WASHINGTON - Missouri U.S. Sen. Josh Hawley is pushing for more testing for radioactive contamination in St. Charles County, according to a letter he sent to the United States Department of Energy on Monday.

One event, two athletic directors and an immeasurable difference in public commitments encapsulated the Pac-12’s wobbly present.There was Utah’s Mark Harlan, sharing the main stage with commissioner George Kliavkoff late last week at the preseason media extravaganza in Las Vegas. Harlan fielded questions from the reporters and, in the process, doubled down on Utah’s allegiance.“Our words and actions speak for themselves,” he said. “We are proud members of this conference.”A few hours later, Colorado’s Rick George took the same stage for a 15-minute panel discussion on the College Football Playoff, then declined to take questions as he scurried out the rear exit.“I’ve got a flight to catch,” he said.Utah and Colorado joined the Pac-12 on the same day, July 1, 2011. By all accounts, the Utes are committed to a future in the conference despite the protracted media rights negotiations that have frustrated fans and campus officials alike.But Colorado’s status isn’t as clear in the public...Jason Aldean’s “Try That in a Small Town” rockets to No. 2 on charts after music video controversy
