FORT MADISON — In a carpeted Quality Inn & Suites conference room, an executive in a navy-blue vest made promises to residents in the southeast corner of Iowa. First, Mesabi Metallics CEO Joe Broking promised the farmers, mechanics, local officials and others gathered there that his company would be transparent. Then, he promised them the world. Broking displayed a rendering of the company's plan: a sprawling industrial campus where employees will melt iron and turn it into rolled steel. He provided a long list of industries that could buy from the plant, from automakers to appliance manufacturers and construction materials suppliers. It will be “the cleanest, most environmentally friendly steel in the world at the lowest cost,” Broking said. “And we can do that right here in the U.S., right here in Iowa.” The promises kept coming. “Your schools are going to improve. Your housing market’s going to improve. Access to community amenities is going to improve,” Broking said. People in the crowd of about 100 whispered among themselves as he went on. “This is absolutely a fantastic opportunity for Mesabi Metallics and a fantastic opportunity for each and every one of you. And I can’t wait to actually come

Even as the prices Iowans pay for things remain high, a survey finds many of us are sticking with traditions and won’t skimp on the holidays.

National Retail Federation vice president Allison Zeller says they’re projecting consumer spending will rise more than four percent for the holidays. Zeller says prices are up and consumers are feeling uncertain about the economy, but they’re not skipping the holidays.

With five minutes left in its Iowa high school football state quarterfinal game at No. 2 Van Meter, Roland-Story was back on its heels. The Norsemen held a comfortable two-touchdown lead over the Bulldogs, 28-14, but Van Meter was driving. After Roland-Story raced to a 21-0 first-half lead, Van Meter settled in and gradually shifted the game's momentum. Van Meter had the ball on the Roland-Story 8-yard line facing third-and-5 in the final minutes of the game. If the Bulldogs could find the end zone, they would make it a one-score game with plenty of time to get the ball back for a potential tying or go-ahead drive. Bulldog quarterback Keenan Lundy entered the game among the top five rushers in 2A with an average of nearly 150 yards per game, but he had been held under 100 yards by a Roland-Story defense that had locked in on him for most of the night. When he took the snap on the pivotal third-down play, Lundy scrambled to his left and, with Norse defenders bearing down on him, he tried to force a pass to receiver Blake Becker in the end zone. His throw was on line, but Roland-Story defensive back
