<content:encoded><![CDATA[“Jurassic World: Rebirth” is exactly what its title suggests, a second wind for a franchise that had started to feel extinct. With a powerful new cast, stunning effects, and just the right amount of nostalgic feelings, Universal’s latest dinosaur epic delivers a summer blockbuster experience that is not hard to enjoy. 
Directed by Gareth Edwards, “Jurassic World: Rebirth” picks up five years after “Jurassic World: Dominion,” in a world where dinosaurs have been pushed to controlled habitats and the global panic has cooled. 
When a small research team led by Zora Bennett, played by Scarlett Johansson, returns to Isla Nublar on a mission tied to medical innovation, things, of course, do not go as planned. The past is never really buried, especially when it is made of prehistoric bones. 
Their objective is to secure rare genetic material from dinosaurs, whose DNA holds the potential to unlock life saving treatments for humanity. However, as the top-secret expedition ventures deeper into the island’s wilderness, the team uncovers a sinister secret that has been carefully concealed for decades. 
Johannsson is the standout character of the movie. She brings intellect and grit. She balances action hero energy with genuine emotional weight, giving the story a strong human center. 
Jonathan Bailey plays paleontologist Dr. Henry Loomis with thoughtful restraint, while Mahershala Ali adds grit as a former Military officer turned field commander.
Together, this trio leads a compelling ensemble, mixed with the human survivors, that brings the human drama to life. The story dives into themes of scientific ambition, ethical boundaries, and the unintended consequences of resurrecting creatures from the past. 
From each Jurassic franchise movie, the dinosaurs are as breathtaking as ever. Whether it’s the towering return of the Mosasaurus or the introduction of the new species like the Mutadon, every creature is rendered with stunning detail. 
The cinematography soars in jungle scenes and nighttime confrontations, and Alexandre Desplat’s swelling, emotional score ties it all together with both tension and wonder. 
Still, like every Jurassic installment, “Jurassic World: Rebirth” can’t help but lean into a few familiar tropes. From a child in peril and a shadowy corporate villain to the obligatory last minute evacuation and a dramatic dinosaur showdown in the rain. None of these elements fall flat, but they do not break new ground either. 
But even with its familiar beats, “Jurassic World: Rebirth” delivers where it counts. The action is exciting, the visuals are spectacular and the casts bring real energy to the screen. 
It may not reinvent the wheel, but it is a well worth ride, especially for fans who still get a thrill from the rumble of approaching footsteps and the roar of a T. Rex. For a franchise known for spectacle and survival, “Jurassic World: Rebirth” proves there is still plenty of life for these dinosaurs. 
Rating: 7.5/10

Iowa Lavender owners Jason and Jessica Mortvedt opened up their farm Sunday evening for a special “u-pick” event open to the public. 
The three-hour-long event invited locals out to pick from their gardens, explore a petting zoo and learn more about lavender and its uses.
“We love having people out on the farm,” Jason Mortvedt said. “Any time we get the chance to host events, we do.”
The pair first started growing lavender in 2020 after seeing plants in Wisconsin Dells. According to Jessica Mortvedt, “if it can grow there, it will grow here.”
“I’ve always loved everything lavender,” Jessica Mortvedt said. “I discovered that it would grow in the area, and from there we discovered all the products you can make from it.”
A gift shop run by the Mortvedts sells everything from lavender-infused lemonade to skincare products, another thing that draws locals to the farm. 
“Not everybody knows that some plants are edible,” the Mortvedts saids. “We love sharing what we do and showing what lavender does.”
A petting zoo attached to the garden offers locals a chance to interact with the animals that roam the property. 
“Not everybody gets to see farm animals up close,” the Mordtvedts said. “We love giving people the opportunity to interact with them.”
Iowa Lavender hosts other u-pick events throughout the summer. More information can be found on their <a href="http://www.iowalavender.com">website</a> or on <a href="https://www.facebook.com/iowalavender/">Facebook</a>.

<content:encoded><![CDATA[Iowa State women’s basketball player Audi Crooks won a gold medal at the 2025 FIBA Women’s AmeriCup, after defeating Brazil 92-84 in Santiago, Chile.
According to<a href="https://www.fiba.basketball/en/events/fiba-womens-americup-2025/games/126793-BRA-USA#boxscore"> FIBA</a>, the upcoming junior scored four points in the tournament final on July 6, against Brazil and secured one offensive rebound. Crooks overall went 1-for-1 from the field and was 100% from the free-throw line.
The United States team ended the event winning all seven games. Crooks totaled 23 points overall and averaged 3.8 points per game in the tournament.
Crooks made the 12-player United States team after going through three days of trials in the 2025 USA Women’s AmeriCup Team Training Camp in Colorado. According to <a href="https://cyclones.com/news/2025/6/9/womens-basketball-brown-crooks-earn-invites-to-womens-americup-team-trials">Cyclone Athletics</a>, Iowa State forward Addy Brown also received an invitation, alongside 19 other collegiate women’s basketball student-athletes, but did not make the team.
Accompanying Crooks on the United States AmeriCup team were Flau’jae Johnson, Olivia Miles, Hannah Hidalgo, Mikayla Blakes, Madison Booker, Gianna Kneepkens, Hannah Steulke, Kennedy Smith, Joyce Edwards, Raegan Beers and Grace Van Slooten.
Blakes led the United States team as she scored 27 points in the finals, contributing to her overall total of 98 points. Blakes secured six rebounds, two steals and one assist against Brazil. The Vanderbilt University guard earned herself tournament MVP.
Heading back to Ames for her third year as a Cyclone, Crooks holds a career average of 21.4 points, 7.6 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game.

<content:encoded><![CDATA[A local ice cream franchise, “The Outside Scoop,” opened a truck serving the Ames area. Originating in 2010 in Indianola, this ice cream company has spread from a single shop to owning and operating two scoop shops and 12 trucks out of different communities. They are also planning on expanding to have trucks out of state.
The bright pink truck of “The Outside Scoop” is something that catches the attention of ice cream lovers and passersby alike. Ames residents may recognize them from occasional events they had traveled to serve at, but will now be seeing their truck around the community much more often. 
“Our ice cream stands out because it is truly homemade,” Jaedon Murphy, the owner and events manager at The Outside Scoop, said. “Every batch is crafted from scratch by our hardworking production team, using real ingredients to create bold, unforgettable flavors.”
On their trucks, they offer single and double scoops with over 12 different flavors of ice cream to choose from. They also have edible cookie dough and ice cream cookie sandwiches available in monster cookie and chocolate chip flavors.
“We’re passionate about delivering joy through our ice cream–and proud to foster the young leaders who help make it all happen,” Murphy said.
They offer the option to book their trucks for events in the community. They have done events like weddings, birthdays, corporate parties and more. Learn more about their booking process <a href="https://the-outside-scoop.square.site/s/appointments">here</a>.

<content:encoded><![CDATA[Planned Parenthood North Central States recently announced plans to close four clinics in Iowa over the next year due to financial difficulties. The affected locations include Ames, Cedar Rapids, Sioux City, and Urbandale, alongside four clinics in Minnesota. 
According to <a href="https://www.iowapublicradio.org/health/2025-05-24/planned-parenthood-to-close-four-clinics-in-iowa">Planned Parenthood to close 4 clinics in Iowa</a> the organization will also reduce staff by laying off 66 employees and reassigning 37 others. 
Ruth Richardson, president and CEO of Planned Parenthood North Central States, explained that these closures come amid shifts in patient needs, ongoing challenges within the healthcare system, a freeze on Minnesota Title X funds, and legislative actions defending Planned Parenthood. 
Richardson acknowledged the difficulty of these decisions but emphasized their importance in sustaining the organization’s future presence. 
Following these closures, Planned Parenthood will continue operating only two clinics in Iowa, Des Moines and Iowa City. 
The Des Moines Clinic, which recently expanded hours and services, does not provide abortion care. The closure of the Ames clinic will leave Iowa with a single abortion provider which is the Emma Goldman Clinic in Iowa City. 
Since the enactment of Iowa’s law banning abortion after approximately six weeks of pregnancy, the number of abortions performed within the state has dropped sharply. 
Planned Parenthood reported a 60% decrease in abortions within six months of the law’s implementation, while the number of Iowans traveling to neighboring states like Minnesota and Nebraska for abortion services has increased by 239%. 
Amid the closure of the Ames Planned Parenthood, students and residents may turn to Iowa State University Thielen Student Health Center (TSHC) for reproductive and sexual health care. 
“Thielen Student Health Center (TSHC) offers broad primary care services which include sexual and reproductive health, a variety of birth control options including emergency contraception, and testing and treatment of sexually transmitted infections. We also have an onsite pharmacy where prescriptions can be filled, as well as an onsite lab so we can get quick turnaround time on test results,” Erin Baldwin, Associate Vice President and Director of Student Health and Wellness at Theilen, said.
Baldwin noted that so far, the closure announcement of the Ames Planned Parenthood has not led to an increase in student appointments related to reproductive health but emphasized the need to inform students of available services covered under the student health fee.
According to Baldwin, students do not need health insurance to access primary care at Thielen, as visits are included with the student health fee. While labs and prescriptions may have costs, the center strives to keep these affordable and offers a sliding fee discount program. Confidentiality and convenience are priorities, with online scheduling available through a secure portal.
“We want students to know that Thielen can be a great resource,” Baldwin said. “We’re conveniently located on campus and understand the unique needs of students. We’re here to help answer questions and support students navigating their healthcare.”
While Thielen serves as an on-campus resource for Iowa State students, other organizations across the state also provide other services. 
The Family Planning Council of Iowa administers Title X federal funding to health centers across 55 Iowa Counties. 
“We fund different sub-recipient health centers who, in turn, provide family planning services like birth control, STI testing and treatment, on a sliding fee scale so that folks can afford services based on their income,” Allison Smith, executive director of councils, said.
Smith also highlighted the organization’s “Repro Kit” program, which offers free customizable reproductive health kits. 
“We first started handing them out at clinics, like you might leave the dentist with a toothbrush. You’d go home with a bag that had two doses of emergency contraception, a couple of condoms and lube, pregnancy test strips, and a guide,” Smith said. 
Smith expressed that the demand grew, and the council developed a statewide mailing system. 
“We built a form on our website where you could request a kit for free, and now we send them anywhere in Iowa. Now, users can customize their kits based on personal needs, such as latex-free condoms or omitting items they don’t use. We just want people to get what they need,” Smith said. 
According to Smith, in addition to Repro Kits, the council has launched a harm-reduction vending machine in collaboration with the Polk County Health Department in Des Moines. The machine includes emergency contraception, condoms, Narcan, and Opill. 
“It was stocked twice a day for the first few weeks, it’s been very successful,” Smith said. 
Though the vending machine is currently only in Des Moines, the council hopes to expand the initiative. 
“We’re doing what we can to reduce stigma, provide access confidentially, and eventually bring these options to more communities across the state,” Smith said.

<content:encoded><![CDATA[DES MOINES – President Donald Trump boarded Air Force One Thursday afternoon to speak at the Iowa Fairgrounds. 
The evening kicked off America250’s celebration of the 249th birthday of the United States. President Trump made good on his promise to make Iowa his first destination on the national tour. 
“This is a celebration of our great American flag,” President Trump said. “We promised to make Iowa the first stop on our tour, and we started right here.”
The Big, Beautiful Bill
The event started with a speech from Jeff Kauffman, the Iowa Grand Old Party (GOP) Chairman. Kauffman made mention of the Big, Beautiful Bill and its passing. 
“It’s not just beautiful, it’s the right thing to do,” Kauffman said. “We want the resources to go back to the people, and that’s beautiful. It’s not only beautiful, it’s the right thing to do. 
Kauffman wasn’t the only speaker to bring up the bill. Iowa Senators Joni Ernst and Chuck Grassley also commented on its passing. 
“We need a White House that will take action on behalf of U.S. citizens,” Ernst said. “We are lowering taxes, prioritizing rural America and growing America while working to keep tax dollars in the people’s pockets.”
Similar to Ernst, Grassley also highlighted its passing. Grassley went into further detail, explaining what the bill is expected to fund. 
“It strengthens national defense significantly,” Grassley said. “We’re going to finish the wall, and add to the number of people enforcing immigration laws both inside and out.”
The bill is expected to raise interest rates on privately funded student loans. 
“I think the good outweighs the bad,” Nick Harms, a sophomore at Iowa State, said. “Sure, some parts of the bill aren’t the best, but you have to take the positive with the negative.”
“Cutting down inflation, one egg at a time”
Next to the Big, Beautiful Bill, President Trump also claimed to have eliminated inflation across the Midwest. According to Trump, eggs were the first to drop.
“Have you seen the price of eggs lately?” Trump said. “The first thing they did when I got elected was blame me for the cost of eggs, and I told them, ‘I just got here,’ and if you’ve noticed, the price of eggs has gone down substantially.”
President Trump also mentioned cutting the cost of ethanol, a contributor to rising gas prices in the wake of the pipeline.
“[Ethanol] is still important to Iowans,” Trump said. “We’ve continued to fight inflation, gas prices included.”
Trump praised Brooke Rollins, the U.S. Secretary of Agriculture, for her efforts to keep costs low and fight for rural America.
“The work she’s doing is incredible,” Trump said. “Under her control, we promise to fight for rural America and do everything in our power to protect farmers all around the country, starting right here in Iowa.”
Empower farmers, “put them in charge”
Before President Trump’s speech, Rollins took the stage to deliver a message of her own. Like many farmers and small-town Iowans, Rollins herself grew up on a farm.
“I was just an FFA kid in a town of 1200,” Rollins said. “I’m not from Iowa, but I grew up baling hay and barrel racing just like many of you.”
Rollins added that President Trump’s mission is to put America first, starting with the farmers.
“President Trump will be the first to tell you to love your country,” Rollins said. “It was patriotism that brought the first farmers to sink plows into the beautiful, rich earth right here in the state of Iowa.”
According to another attendee, Caden Sprouse, it’s the younger generation of farmers who will have the tools necessary for success. 
“Compared to other rallies that I’ve attended, there was a much higher turnout of the younger generation,” Sprouse said. “[Trump] has always cared about Iowa, especially the rural populations.”
Militant success, “enlistments at an all-time high”
In addition to ‘America’s 249th birthday,’ speakers at the event highlighted the 250th anniversary of the United States military and all of its fallen soldiers. To Rollins, one Iowan in particular comes to mind.
“We’re reminded of 24-year-old Martin Treptow, a barber from northwest Iowa who gave his life for his country,” Rollins said. “Just like [Treptow] and other soldiers who gave their lives for this country, we will work, save, sacrifice, and endure this struggle for this country as if it were ours alone.”
According to President Trump, the country has also seen a spike in the number of people enlisting in the armed forces over the last decade. 
“It used to be that people didn’t want to join the military,” Trump said. “They had a hard time getting anybody to enlist, but that’s not what we’re seeing today.”
Trump’s remarks were backed by U.S. Chief of Protocol Monica Crowley, who also commented on the success of the United States military. 
“As a nation, we can continue to slide into steady decline, or choose restoration of American vigor, patriotism, and purpose,” Crowley said. “It’s our responsibility to carry that spirit forward.”
Trump’s promise to ”bring back common sense”
President Trump concluded his speech with the promise that under his control, the United States would not fall into Communist rule. 
“Generations before us did not shed their blood only for us to surrender this great nation,” Trump said. “As your President of the United States, I’m proclaiming that America will never be communist again.”
Trump continued to oppose the idea of climate change and challenge the idea that every American will drive a fully electric car in the near future, calling it ‘a great big scam.’
“The electric vehicle mandate is insane,” Trump said. “We’re going to have electric if people want it, but some people like gasoline better.”
President Trump also condemned the idea of mandating something both he and his supporters see as “your choice.”
“The idea of mandating something like that is ridiculous,” Trump said. “Let the people decide what they want and when they want it.”
President Trump ended his speech with a promise to his supporters, “Together, we will bring back common sense and make America great again.”

<content:encoded><![CDATA[AMES – Iowa State wrestling added two All-American transfers to its roster. Head coach Kevin Dresser announced Wednesday the additions of Stevo Poulin and Vinny Zerban, both from Northern Colorado.
With the addition of Poulin and Zerban, the Cyclones have seven wrestlers with All-American status at some point in their careers since the 1982-1983 season. The pair joins Anthony Echemendia, Yonger Bastida, Evan Frost, Jacob Frost and Rocky Elam on the list of current or former All-Americans on the active roster.
“We’re thrilled to add two high-impact transfers to our team in Stevo and Vinny,” Dresser said. “Both guys have found consistent success throughout their careers and will come to Ames ready to scrap.”
Poulin, a three-time NCAA Qualifier, started his career at NC State. He finished in eighth place at the 2025 NCAA Wrestling Championships. Poulin recorded wins over Iowa’s Dean Peterson, Indiana’s Jacob Moran, Army’s Charlie Farmer and South Dakota State’s Tanner Jordan, finishing the season at 24-6. Poulin joins the Cyclones with a 77-19 record.
Zerban, also a three-time NCAA Qualifier, placed sixth at the 2025 NCAA Wrestling Championships. He won the Big 12 Championship at 157 after losing to Ryder Downey of UNI and Cole Siebrecht of South Dakota State during the regular season, finishing 22-7. The Illinois native joins the Cyclones with a 69-24 career record.
Both transfers also boast multiple state titles, Poulin a three-time New York state champion and Zerban a two-time Missouri state champion.
Poulin and Zerban are the fourth and fifth transfer portal additions of the offseason. The Cyclones also added Melton Powe at 174, Isaac Dean at 184 and Elam at 197.
“They will provide an immediate impact in our room,” Dresser said. “We can’t wait to get them settled in.”
