If you head to the Gateway Arch in St. Louis this year, you might find scaffolding underneath that gorgeous 630-foot-high silver frame. The National Park Service and local leaders are working on $250 million in upgrades to weave together the arch, the Mississippi River, new landscaping and the...

Fifteen years ago, I was a young music critic spending time in New York, discovering that a number of men in the industry wanted to have sex with me. I figured this out because they said things like “I want to have sex with you,” and offered up hotel rooms. (Now they’d probably save themselves...

But Senate Republicans — including John McCain of Arizona — resisted, insisting that the vacancy should be filled by the president chosen by voters in November....

There are compelling reasons not to vote for Donald Trump. He has the emotional temperament of a spoiled 14-year-old girl — everything is someone else’s fault and any rare apology is insincere and grudging. His attitude toward sex and women mirrors those of an obnoxious frat boy — girls are sex...
