The co-founder of one of the nation’s largest ethanol companies, who donated more than $162,000 to Gov. Terry Branstad’s 2010 cam- paign, might sit on the Board of Regents, overseeing the Rastetter budgets of Iowa’s public universities.

Generally, interrogated sus- pects are believed by police to be the one who MEN’S VICTORY: committed the crime as evidence may indicate that person is guilty. As a result, the more the suspect denies the accusation, the more pres- sure interrogators will put on them to confess. “The minute you give the police what they Cyclone Alley celebrates want, which is that confession, they’re go- Cyclone fans cheer at the end of the game against Nebraska on Saturday ing to stop pressuring you,” said Stephanie at Hilton Coliseum.

By Nicole.McIntosh iowastatedaily.com

For 76 years, Ames residents have been able to stop by a locally-owned chocolate shop and pick up a little treat, but Monday will be the last day for Temptations on Main. Due to cutbacks from businesses that in past years have been able to give Temptations the kind of business that has allowed them to sell ice cream at a dollar, they will permanently close their doors. “It was what really [helped] us keep prices low,” said Tim Coble, owner of Temptations. When Coble and his wife Janice took over the business six years ago, they reached new business markets that hadn’t been touched be- fore. These companies would buy a chocolate basket for the holidays for their employees or send them to clients or other things like that.
