Clean Up in Aisle Five, Deer

“Clean up in aisle five” took on new meaning last weekend for a north Iowa grocery store. Mason City Police Mike McKelvey says they were notified shortly after 11 AM Sunday (Nov. 1) that a large buck had just crashed through a window at Hy Vee East on South Illinois Avenue. Callers reported the deer was running around in the dining area of the store and that a five-year-old boy was injured and bleeding from his head.

This Cedar Rapids, Iowa Restaurant Serves A Korean BBQ Steak Sandwich Worth The Trip

Shaved ribeye, Korean BBQ, and kimchi that takes a full 24 hours to make, all packed into one hoagie roll. That sandwich alone made me stop scrolling. Then the toppings keep coming. Pepper jack cheese, umami sauce, and crispy onions pile on for good measure. It reads less like lunch...

Blue-collar background informs Cedar Rapids native’s fiction

CEDAR RAPIDS — Unlike a lot of authors, Keith Pilapil Lesmeister didn’t set out to become a writer from an early age. Instead, the Cedar Rapids native was well into adulthood before he realized he had a knack for storytelling. While in his late 20s and working in the admissions office at Luther College in Decorah, Lesmeister said he decided to record some of the “wild and outlandish” family stories he’d heard growing up in Cedar Rapids. He started to write down some of that family lore, while at the same time taking a few writing-related classes at Luther. It was a class on creative writing that helped light the spark for him. “It felt very liberating, in the sense that, you know, instead of airing out all of my family's dirty laundry, I could … instead just make things up and call it fiction, which was far more liberating to me,” Lesmeister said. Nearly two decades later, Lesmeister has turned that interest in fiction into a full-fledged career. He recently released his second collection of short stories, “Ask Me About the Money,” in addition to working full time as a writing and literature instructor at Northeast Iowa Community College.

Corn bears aren't real in Iowa , but rats certainly are. The pest control company Orkin has unveiled its list of the rattiest cities in America , and an Iowa city made the list for the first time. Aw, rats! Which Iowa city has the worst rat infestations? This is the first time Cedar Rapids has made it into the top 50 worst cities for rats, landing at 36th on the list.

Cities provide the prime resources for them to thrive. “There’s no single type of city or climate that’s immune to rodent pressure,” said Dr. Shannon Sked, National Technical Director at Orkin. Cedar Rapids also made Orkin's list for the cities with the worst bed bug infestations in July. More: Two Iowa cities are among the nation's worst for bed bug infestations See Orkin's top 50 rattiest cities Here's a look at the top 50 rattiest cities in America, according to Orkin, and their change in the rankings since last year: Los Angeles Chicago New York San Francisco Washington, DC (+1) Detroit (+1) Cleveland (+4)

In Waterloo, Iowa, A Brewery Saved A Wonder Bread Bakery Location And Built Its Future Inside

When SingleSpeed Brewing Co. opened its taproom in a former Wonder Bread bakery in Waterloo, Iowa, some of the first visitors already knew the building well. Former bakery employees stopped in to look around, and Rachel Beck, then the brewery’s sustainability coordinator, said that “they recognized their own workstations just from the spots in the floor, or they recognized some brick wall that they used to stand by. And it’s just really cool to see how much of the history of the building is still retained.”

Documentary connects Indigenous tribes from Iowa, Hawaii and Mexico through dance

In 1883, the U.S. Department of the Interior created a Code of Indian Offenses — it made Native dancing and ceremonies illegal and gave Indian Agents authority to punish anyone who violated the code. This was part of a systematic effort to erase individual tribal cultures and to force all indigenous people to assimilate. The documentary Why We Dance takes viewers into the heart of Indigenous communities around North America in Iowa, South Dakota, Minnesota, Hawaii and Mexico. It's a film about heritage, connection, joy and cultural resilience.
