Here is the latest Iowa news from The Associated Press

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Lottery officials say no jackpot winner was selected in the latest $380 million Powerball drawing. The next drawing will be Wednesday after no one matched Saturday’s winning numbers. Sue Dooley is the senior drawing manager for the Multi-State Lottery Association, which oversees Powerball. She says the estimated value of Wednesday’s drawing will be $450 million. The huge jackpot is a return to form for Powerball, which has been known along with Mega Millions for its record-breaking jackpots in recent years. But the Powerball lottery has experienced a slump, with nearly a year passing since its jackpot total climbed above $300 million. Powerball’s last major jackpot was in February 2014, when it climbed to $425 million. Powerball tickets cost $2 each.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — A man who says he was kicked in the face by a Des Moines police officer following a traffic stop is suing the now ex-officer, former Police Chief Judy Bradshaw and the city of Des Moines. The Register reports that Orville Hill filed the federal lawsuit Wednesday. The officer, Colin Boone, was fired in 2013 following the incident and faces a second federal trial on March 9th on an excessive force charge.

MASON CITY, Iowa (AP) — A 91-year-old Mason City woman accused of hitting a bicyclist with her car has been charged with leaving the scene of an accident. The Mason City Globe Gazette reports that the incident happened Friday afternoon. Police investigators say Patricia Fullerton was driving west on a city street shortly before 3 p.m. and attempting to turn south when she struck 54-year-old Terrie Eliason’s bicycle.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — The Des Moines City Council is set to review changes to its dog ordinance Monday that officials say will hold owners more accountable for misbehaving pets. But the changes won’t include removal of “breed-specific” rules that automatically classify all pit bull-type dogs as vicious.

WEST DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — A West Des Moines Valley High School student is set to attend the Grammy Awards Sunday night. Des Moines television station KCCI reports that Jared Freiburg won a nationwide vocal audition contest to become one of eight high school singers selected to be part of the Grammy’s Jazz Choir.

February 7th, 2015 by Ric Hanson

AMES, Iowa (AP) — Jameel McKay scored 17 points on 7-for-7 shooting in his first start and keyed a strong defensive effort that carried No. 11 Iowa State to a 75-38 victory over Texas Tech on Saturday. It was a sharp turnaround for the Cyclones (17-5, 7-3 Big 12) from their surprising 78-73 loss at Tech two weeks earlier, a game in which they fell behind 29-10. Iowa State bolted ahead 29-8 in this one and was never challenged in winning for the 20th straight time at home.

Naz Long added 15 points for Iowa State, which shot 56 percent and allowed its fewest points of the season to a Big 12 opponent. Toddrick Gotcher led Tech with 11 points, all but two in the first half.

Man pleads guilty to conspiracy in Sioux City cop shooting

News

February 7th, 2015 by Ric Hanson

SIOUX CITY, Iowa (AP) — A man accused of helping another man flee Sioux City after shooting a police officer has pleaded guilty to a federal conspiracy charge. The Sioux City Journal reports that 25-year-old Esteban Hernandez pleaded guilty Friday in Sioux City’s U.S. District Court. Hernandez faces more than a year in prison when he’s sentenced.

Hernandez was arrested last month in Texas after being indicted in November. Hernandez was accused of driving Jamal Dean to Winnebago, Nebraska, a day after Dean shot Sioux City police Officer Kevin McCormick during a traffic stop in 2013. Hernandez later tried to take Dean to Mexico.

Dean was sentenced to 25 years in prison after pleading guilty to attempted murder.

Lavon and Miss NiNi talk about brownies.

SPIRITED APRICOT CREAM CHEESE BROWNIES—The Grand Finale Segwood Press
Ingredients:
¾ c. dried apricots, chopped
3 T. brandy
5 oz. cream cheese
2 T. butter
¼ c. sugar
1 egg
3-1/2 T. butter
4 oz. semisweet chocolate, chopped
2 eggs
¾ c. sugar
1 t. vanilla extract
½ c. all-purpose flour
½ t. baking powder
¼ t. salt
½ t. espresso (optional)
½ c. chopped walnuts
Method:
Place dried apricots in bowl and pour over the brandy. Allow to stand for at least 1 hour.
Beat cream cheese and butter until smooth. Gradually add sugar and continue beating until creamy. Add egg and beat to combine. Stir in apricots and brandy.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease an 8-inch square pan.
Heat butter over low heat. When half-melted, add chocolate and stir to combine. When chocolate mixture is melted, remove from heat and set aside. Beat eggs until light and foamy, gradually add sugar and beat until pale and thickened (about 2 min.) Fold in chocolate-butter mixture and vanilla. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and espresso. Add to mixture.
Pour two-thirds of chocolate mixture into prepared pan. Pour apricot cream cheese and nuts on top. Spoon on remaining chocolate mixture. Using a table knife, swirl apricot cream cheese mixture through chocolate mixture. Bake until cake tester inserted into middle of brownies comes out barely moist, about 35-40 min. Cool completely in pan before slicing.
