How will the Iowa Hawkeyes finish in the Big Ten? Will they sneak in a Big Ten championship? Based on the schedule, a few recent "off the field" problems, and some early polls not expecting anything substantial, will they have a surprising "up" year? This seems to be the norm during the Ferentz era. He very much enjoys being (under the radar), and being a long time Iowa fan, I have to say that I agree! Can we get past both Wisconsin and Penn State? If so this may be a wonderful year for the Hawkeyes!
Are there any Iowa or national grants or scholarships that I can apply for to student teach abroad? My Iowa tuition grant expired because I am in my fifth year.

I am from a single parent family and can't afford this extra cost, can anyone please help me? I've looked at fastweb and have done google searches, but I can't seem to find what I'm looking for. Thanks!

How far away is Iowa from legalizing same sex marriage? I read an article that says there's a high court in Iowa hearing out this case that may legalize same sex marriage in their state. This was reportedly going on for 3 years and will take another year longer. That sounds odd: a 4-year court case? What kind of court case lasts that long?
How far away is Iowa from legalizing gay marriage? There's a court case going on there that has been in progress for 3 years already and they say it might take another year to get a ruling.

How many candidates have won Iowa then gone on to win the party's nomination for the presidency? I'm trying to figure out how big of a deal the victories of Obama & Huckabee really are. I also wonder if there is another state that votes early in the primary season that is a better determiner for who wins the nomination. Not in socioeconomic terms or anything like that, but in terms of eventual outcome. For example, what if it turns out that 80% of the time, the person who wins Minnesota wins the nomination...wouldn't that take some of the shine off Iowa?

Why are the polls different in Iowa than national? Polls in Iowa are almost opposite of "national" polls. They show Hillary Clinton barely leading her competors, and Romney leading the republicans, even he's 4th nationally. Is there something different about the people there? Do they think differently? Or do they just know more about the candidates because they spend more time and money there?

Do I have to pay sales tax in Iowa when a photographer releases the copyrights to the photos? My photographer is releasing the copyrights to our photos to us for $1500. The photographer is located in Iowa, but I live in Maryland and they would be shipping the copyright release to us. They have now come back and said that it would cost $1605 bc of sales tax.

Where can I find out about wine contests in Iowa? Hi! My parents just spent a lot of money on a home wine-making kit. It's time to drink it finally, and this wine is GREAT! And we lived in Europe for 5 years so we are experienced wine drinkers. My dad has been told by several other wine-makers that this is good enough to win in contests. I'm wondering how I would find out about wine competitions in the state of Iowa. I tried searching online but couldn't really find anything. Thanks!

Where are the best places to live in Iowa? I am looking to relocate to Iowa to start a new life and an IT business. I heard Iowa is very small business friendly. I need to know what the best spots in Iowa are. I have heard the Council Bluffs/Omaha area is nice. I am looking for somewhere that is not too ghetto, not too hick, and not too snooty (if that exists lol). I would like an area where the rent is affordable (2 bedroom for around $400-$450). Any suggestions?
How much would a house like this cost in Iowa next summer? My brother and i will both be done with college this spring, starting jobs where we would both make $15 per hour. I have a $300 car payment for another 2 years, and he will need a car within a year, of a similar payment. We want to get a small house here in Iowa, area code 50613, that has a large workspace such as either a very large garage, or a seperate workshop, perhaps made from a pole barn. Neither of us plan on raising families there, so a 2-bedroom house with 1 bath and a small kitchen, just a bachelor pad, would fit quite well. We'd like to be near town, but rural enough to not have to worry too much about neighbors, since we've grown up in the country and are used to being able to shoot firearms, and work on our cars without worrying about leaving a tool laying out, for a passing kid to steal if we were in town. Darn tool-stealing kids. Honestly, i think we would both live in a large RV if the price was right, and if we could find an empty lot for dirt cheap to build a simple workshop on. We have welding equipment, an air compressor, stuff that just doesn't fit into a small house's garage in the middle of town. Our parents are selling the acreage to move into a condo in town, and my brother and i cannot afford the huge house or property it's on, when the large workshop and rural setting are all we really need. I thought about maybe just living in an apartment in town, and renting somebody's unused barn outside of town, for my brother to rebuild a muscle car, and myself to build a dune buggy. Okay so this is a ton of extra info... Any advice or thoughts on how much we could get a small rural house for?
What kind of cell phone plan should I get for Iowa? My uncle lives in Hospers, Iowa (zip code 51238), and is a truck driver. He'd like to get a cell phone for when he's on the road.

What network has the best coverage for Iowa, going west, and should he get a pay-as-you-go phone, or a regular plan?
What is your opinion on attending the Univeristy of Northern Iowa? i really want to because it is small and because it is in Iowa. i hate wisconsin, even though i live there, i hate the state because the taxes are so freakin high, it costs so much to buy a house, and there are too many hispanic invasions. just felt like stating my opinion!
What are my chances of getting into the University of Iowa? I consider myself to be an exceptional writer and I wish to get into the University of Iowa.

How long will it take to Greyhound from S Carolina, to Iowa? Tomorrow i'm traveling from Ft Jackson, South Carolina, to Cedar Falls, Iowa, by means of charter bus.

How significant is it that Obama has lost his big margin in Iowa? He was 6+ points up in Rassmussen and now it's narrowed to 2 points between McCain and Obama.

Rassmussen polls for general election were released today.

Building a wood stick frame with exterior stucco and stone home in Iowa? Im very interested a house plan that has a wood stick frame (What the heck is that?) and and exterior of stucco and stone. Would that be impratical for a house in central/eastern Iowa? Would it like crack after freezing? If so what would be other similar looking options? And is stucco/stone stronger than your average new construction house? Would it be able to support a basement?
Is there a law or ordinance in Iowa that state how many vehicles you can have on your property? I have neighbors who are always towing in another non-running vehicle. They are up to 2 pickups and 4 cars and 4 motorcycles. They have place 3 of their motorcycles in the shed so those I can not do anything about. The city ordinance states that citizens are not allowed unlicensed vehicles, or vehicles that do not run. We know that 2 vehicles are not licensed and that 2 do not run. My husband and I filed a formal complaint with the city via a signed request that something be done as they are violating city ordinances. This complaint was also signed by 15 other people who live in the neighborhood and would like to see something done. The city wrote me a letter stating that the vehicles were not considered an eyesore and how dare I ask that they be removed from the property. My letter never asked for removal of the cars, only compliance with the town ordinances. I live in the state of Iowa and would like any help on what to do next or where to go from here. Thanks.
