A prior gag on jurors aims to prevent publicity to avoid a mistrial after a phone call to a juror.

Iowa Geological Survey findings by Matthew Aycin indicate low-sulfur coal in Iowa is more abundant than once thought. Recent drillings over two years suggest reserves are stronger than prior estimates, with sulfur content around two to three percent and potential for private mining and power generation.

Senate Rejects House Plan on Prison Terms
In Des Moines the Senate rejected a House plan to prohibit parole for prisoners serving life while they have at least ten years served. Sen. Gene Glenn led opposition to restricting the governor from equalizing sentence in such cases. The chamber also debated mandatory sentences for forcible felonies and drug offenses, but did not adopt most House minimum-sentence measures. The Senate approved police entry without knocking in some cases but did not back House bans on topless dancers and certain tavern practices. The vote on preempting the House provisions tied 22 to 23, leaving the fate of the measure to follow-up pages.

Noah Dietrich s attorney says it is unlikely Melvin Dummar forged Hughes will while Dummar s past shows a 1969 forgery charge was dropped. Handwriting experts back the will s authenticity though Dummar faced payroll check and stolen goods charges. The AGS challenge cites the Spruce Goose plane did not belong to Hughes when the will was dated and would not pass to anyone.
