Jenna Higgins Freese of the Iowa Renewable Energy Association argues wind power improves Iowa’s economy and environment. She cites $2,000 annual leases per quarter acre, a $6.1 billion outflow currently, and 400 percent of local electricity needs from wind, while noting siting reduces wildlife impact and emissions are avoided.
The piece argues the Lord's Prayer has no place at amateur or professional sports events. It cites Supreme Court stance and suggests alternatives like singing the Star Spangled Banner and the Pledge of Allegiance. It notes differing religious views among attendees and proposes a nonsectarian pregame ritual.
A reader highlights spelling errors and misused terms in an Iowa article. Examples include incorrect armoire description, hay bale phrasing, duel-fuel Ford, incorrect Juan Montoya from Colombia, and the Idlewild/JFK naming history.
