HEBER SPRINGS, Ark. (AP) - Arkansas authorities say that country singer Mindy McCready was found dead with an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound.
A news release from the Cleburne County Sheriff's Office says that McCready, 37, was found dead Sunday afternoon with what appears to be a single, self-inflicted wound. She was found on the front porch of a home.
McCready hit the top of the country charts before personal problems sidetracked her career

MO DNR: Odor no threat from Bridgeton landfill
Monday, 18 February 2013 01:17 Published in Local News
BRIDGETON, Mo. (AP) - State tests show that the odor from the Bridgeton Landfill outside St. Louis is not a health threat.
The Department of Natural Resources on Friday released a summary of recent air sampling results from the landfill. The samples showed "concentrations did not exceed a level of concern for public health." One sample collected near the landfill boundary, however, had a benzene concentration above the level considered safe.
An area deep within the inactive landfill has been smoldering for more than two years, emitting a foul odor that has generated several complaints.
Landfill operator, Phoenix-based Republic Services Inc., says it's spending millions of dollars to address the problem.
An environmental group says more testing is needed.
