Nearly 28 years after Jodi Huisentruit's disappearance, a $25,000 reward is being offered for information that leads to the recovery of the remains of the former Mason City morning television news anchor, according to a news release.

Huisentruit disappeared early on the morning of June 27, 1995, on her way to work at KIMT-TV in Mason City. Though the case has remained in the public eye, no arrests or charges have been made in connection to the case.



Licensed private investigator Steve Ridge offered the reward as a private citizen. Ridge says the reward offer has the blessing of Huisentruit’s sister, JoAnn Nathe.

“I speak with JoAnn on a regular basis, and we have decided the timing is right to seek information on where Jodi’s body was discarded,” Ridge said. “This reward does not require an arrest or conviction — but simply the recovery of Jodi’s remains,” Ridge added.

Ridge believes that someone out there knows what happened to Jodi. It could easily be someone who bears no guilt or involvement but has knowledge they've been reluctant to share before, he said. He hopes that this reward would encourage someone to come forward.

“I am now extremely confident that multiple people know what happened to Jodi. Eventually, someone may decide to talk,” Ridge said in a news release. “We hope to encourage that possibility."

Florida's all important tourism industry is being hit hard by environmental issues. Rick Scott has an interesting response, it's the fault of the federal government. The Feds are failing to control pollution that is produced in Florida, and is poisoning the waters in and around Florida.

Just found out about these but I’ve never had one. I plan on making some this week. Essentially a smash burger with thin onion slices cooked in. Anyone had these before? Is this a popular thing outside of Oklahoma?

and it worked.


Elon Musk sought to recruit top AI talent to his new artificial intelligence company with equity in the venture he claimed was already worth tens of billions of dollars, according to people familiar with the matter.

If xAI was worth $20 billion — a valuation Musk came up with — before it was born, then each 1% offer in stock options was like a $200 million signing bonus, the people said.

His recruiting efforts succeeded. The startup, launched Wednesday, boasted researchers from Google, DeepMind, and academic powerhouses like the University of Toronto, where major breakthroughs in deep learning have taken place.

I wonder if it can pass anti-trust muster.

Wonder if Hy-Vee is a target.

A federal judge in Texas has ruled that a 55-year-old federal agency created to help minority-owned businesses must now open its doors to every race, siding with a group of White plaintiffs who argued that the agency discriminated against them.

In a 93-page opinion rendered Tuesday, U.S. District Court Judge Mark T. Pittman ruled that the Minority Business Development Agency’s presumption that businesses owned by Blacks, Latinos and other minorities are inherently disadvantaged violated the Constitution’s guarantee of equal protection. He permanently enjoined the agency’s business centers, which have assisted minority-owned businesses in accessing capital and government contracts, from extending services based on an applicant’s race.

“If courts mean what they say when they ascribe supreme importance to constitutional rights, the federal government may not flagrantly violate such rights with impunity,” Pittman wrote. “The MBDA has done so for years. Time’s up.”

The ruling is the latest blow to government affirmative action programs after the Supreme Court’s landmark ruling in June against Harvard and the University of North Carolina that upended race-conscious college admissions. The decision sparked a broad legal offensive against affirmative action and diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programs in the private and public sectors. In July, a Tennessee judge ruled that the Small Business Administration 8(a) Business Development program’s use of the racial presumption of disadvantage was unconstitutional, forcing the agency to overhaul its program.
“This is a historic victory for equality in America,” said Dan Lennington, an attorney with Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty, the conservative public interest law firm representing the plaintiffs in the MBDA case. “No longer can a federal agency cater only to certain races. MBDA is now open to all.”
Lennington has previously noted that the case is likely to be appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit, which leans conservative.
Justice Department lawyers representing the MBDA did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
