PSA of the Day: Whatchu know bout Iowa? In all likelihood, not very much.
With the caucuses just around the corner it probably couldn’t hurt to know something about the Corn Belt’s de facto capital besides its nickname or its contribution to Starfleet.
Iowa Public Television’s Scott Siepker volunteers to lay down some nice (if slightly NSFW) Iowa knowledge on you, Heartland-style.
“The ideal outcome is to get people to know Iowa as it is, and not what you think it is,” Siepker told the Des Moines Register. So stop thinking, and start pressing play.

Frivolous Lawsuit of the Day: An appeals court in Illinois ruled that a woman injured by the body parts of a man killed after being struck by a train can sue the man for negligence.
18-year-old Hiroyuki Joho was run over by an Amtrak train while crossing the tracks near a Chicago Metra station in 2008.
Parts of his body were flung in the direction of the southbound platform, knocking down Gayane Zokhrabov. She sustained a broken leg and wrist, along with a shoulder injury.
Her lawsuit against Joho’s estate was initially dismissed by a Cook County judge, but the appellate court overturned that decision, saying it was “reasonable” to expect Joho to foresee the consequences of his actions.
Zokhrabov attorney, Leslie Rosen, admitted the case was “very peculiar and gory and creepy,” but insisted Joho was guilty of “straightforward negligence.”
“If you do something as stupid as this guy did,” Rosen said, “you have to be responsible for what comes from it.”
