Iowa’s Cael Winter discusses the Cy-Hawk rivalry

By Evan Denton,

10 hours ago

The Cy-Hawk game between Iowa and Iowa State is a matchup the state of Iowa waits for each year.

In this year's game, there are 64 Iowans on the two rosters combined.

One of them is Cael Winter, Iowa's center. He's a Des Moines native who grew up in the thick of the rivalry. On top of that, the Hawkeye had an interesting viewpoint of the rivalry within his parents' home.

"Both my parents graduated from Iowa State so I kind of was forced into being an Iowa State fan growing up," Winter said. "Then I'd always watch the games and I'd see that Iowa always had the best linemen so I always told my parents I'd want to play for Iowa if I got the chance. They made a pretty smooth transition, and they're all in for the Hawks now."

A multistate E. coli recall involving frozen berries has expanded to include a product sold under Walmart's Great Value brand. Frutas y Hortalizas del Sur S.A. is recalling one lot of Great Value Organic Triple Berry Blend because it may be contaminated with E. coli O145:H28, a strain capable of causing severe illness.

California Braces For A Historic El Niño

“Super El Niño” might already undersell it. “I would suggest maybe we need a new category of extreme El Niño,” said Dr. Daniel Swain, a climate scientist with the University of California Agriculture and Natural Resources and a research affiliate at the NSF National Center for Atmospheric Research. “The forecast for this year is genuinely extreme. It greatly exceeds even very strong events that we’ve seen historically.”

7 Boarding-House Suppers From the Mid-Century Common Table

I use AI to help draft these articles. Every recipe and every fact in them is checked before publishing. Boarders and lodgers in American households peaked at about 4.6 million in 1930, and rooming houses were still a fixture of working life through the decades that followed. Mill towns, port cities, factory districts, and railroad junctions all had them: a narrow frame house with six or eight boarders, a weekly rate pinned to the front door, and a landlady who set supper on the table at six o'clock whether you were there or not. The arrangement worked because rent included meals, and meals were the whole point.

7 Dishes Baby Boomers Cooked Again Once the Kids Finally Left

I use AI to help draft these articles. Every recipe and every fact in them is checked before publishing. An empty-nest kitchen is still equipped for a family of five, and that is the first thing a couple notices once the last kid moves out. The stockpot holds enough spaghetti for twelve, one bag of groceries stretches four days instead of one, and a pan of chicken that used to vanish in a single sitting now feeds the same two people three nights running.

Four-Ingredient Southern Hoecakes Prove Simple Food Can Shine

Plain yellow cornmeal, milk or water, an egg, and bacon grease or oil become crisp-edged skillet cakes with tender golden centers. The hot fat creates delicate, lacy borders while the thin batter cooks into a rustic corn flavor that feels deeply connected to traditional Southern kitchens. There is no lengthy resting period, special equipment, or expensive ingredient list involved. A cast-iron skillet and a few pantry basics are enough to produce something warm and satisfying, demonstrating exactly why hoecakes have remained useful across generations.

7 Supper Dishes 1970s Families Stretched to Last the Week

Through most of the 1970s, grocery prices climbed faster than they had in a generation. The sharpest jump came in 1973 and 1974, when food at home rose about 16 percent in one year and nearly 15 percent again in the next. A chuck roast went from being a Sunday treat to something you braised on Monday and ate cold in sandwiches through Wednesday. Canned tuna, dry beans, hot dogs, and whatever cut of meat was on sale became the backbone of the week's suppers, stretched with egg noodles, cornbread, or a can of cream soup.

7 Meals Military Families Carried From Base to Base

Military families moved constantly, sometimes every two years, sometimes more. New towns, new schools, new neighbors. But dinner was dinner, and the recipes a family brought to Fort Lewis ended up at Fort Bragg, then Camp Lejeune, then wherever orders sent them next. The dish was the constant when everything else kept changing.
