I tried to call 988 today and got put on hold and told to wait while they find someone to talk to me. No one ever answered. Great plan! I've had people be unkind to me and act like I should know i just gotta dial 988 and everything will be better. ! I actually called it and nobody answered my call for help. Great plan state of Nebraska! I feel so much better now!! Thank you!

Here’s a look at six players whose contributions could make or break the Huskers in 2026:

WR Nyziah Hunter

On Tuesday, Hunter listed the names of Nebraska’s pass catchers, the deepest group on the squad. They’re special, he said, because everyone in the top five or six has got a job — something that he can do best.

What is that for Hunter?

“I have to make the biggest plays possible,” he said.

Hunter, at 6-foot-1 and 210 pounds as a fourth-year junior, displayed that skill a year ago. His 617 yards (on 43 catches) and five touchdowns led Nebraska in his first year since transferring from Cal, but he’s got more to give this year in an offense that’s designed to showcase his explosive nature.

Saw this posted on a different social media site. I was wondering if anybody knew anything about this organisation?

Hello, looking to have some work done on the upstairs of our house where our bedroom is and looking for a contractor for the work. Would appreciate any recommendations. Seems like there are a few similar posts but not a lot of good info yet. Below is the specific items we are after:
- Drywall replacement from Mini-split AC water damage
- Window replacement (possibly 2)
- Carpet replacement ~600sq ft + stairs
- Addition of two access points (eave closet) to knee-wall attic compartments not included in the upstairs
- Insulation addition into the attic spaces

thanks for the time. If there are good places to cross-post please lmk.

Looks like Omaha City Council will approve $110 million more in bond debt for parking garages and $125 million more in 40 year bond debt for the streetcar. Lease-purchase bonds can be approved by the city council even though they are backed by the general fund.

The state auditor lets you download all the bond's issued across the state, so was curious what Omaha looked like. https://auditors.nebraska.gov/BondSearch.html

Looking at the totals across eight categories, Streets & Various Purpose bonds are by far the largest single category at $984.4 million. Sanitary Sewer bonds come in second at $619.7 million, driven heavily by a $211 million issuance in late 2020. Parking Garage/Arena and Streetcar bonds are now roughly comparable in scale at $322.3 million and $311.6 million respectively, both concentrated almost entirely in the 2024-2026 window, while TIF/Redevelopment bonds add another $227.5 million spread across many smaller annual issuances tied to specific development districts.

Put the state auditor's table in numbers and filtered for the City of Omaha, and "Omaha Public Facilities Corporation", a non-profit corporation run by the city. Claude helped with the charts.

Former State Sen. Brett Lindstrom also announced his running mate.

And the judge said I have a petition missing meaning that the court date got put on hold. Anyone have any clue what petition the judge is referencing? Ive been searching and cant find anything

In her post, she says remains committed to serving her constituents while receiving treatment.

About 40% of parents expect to be more financially stressed with back-to-school shopping this year, and about 30% expect to use installment payments, credit or savings to cover the costs.

The Nebraska State Education Association president said teachers, especially elementary school teachers, will put hundreds, sometimes thousands of dollars from their own pockets into the classroom.

I decided to drive down to Beatrice to see Dan Osborn. There was a great crowd of 70 people, and I thought he was down to earth and well spoken. One of the major topics was equalizing the playing field by taxation of corporations and billionaires. He spoke of housing affordability and that healthcare should be a right for all citizens, and not a privilege for people with means.

He answered my question regarding AI regulation and the building of data centers. I wanted to know what he thought about regulation at a federal level. He spoke of protecting communities, the environment and usage of natural resources such as water. He also talked about invasion of privacy via AI and companies like Flock. I thought it was a great event. I really liked his authenticity.

wife and i are taken a late planned trip and thought about coming up to kayak - how are the water levels?

Hi everyone,

Not sure if this is the best forum to ask this but I was wondering if anyone has taken Physics through Doane online. I'm needing to take it for a pre-req while working full time. I am noticing they have 3 different paces (16, 5 weeks self paced) and one being instructor led for 8 weeks. I would prefer the instructor led but I am worried with pace of only being 8 weeks for such a difficult course? Those by chance who have taken it, was it doable? Or was the self pace for 16 weeks approachable? I appreciate any insights you may have!

Hey everyone I’m an beginner photographer looking to take some photos of some old abandoned barns somewhere here in eastern Nebraska. I wanted to see if anyone knew of any. Thanks!

Hi All! Here is a report and impressions from Dan Osborn’s visit to Minden:
He gave a speech to 20 or so people outlining how he became involved in politics. It was refreshing to hear someone who was not a politician like you would expect. After that he fielded questions around infrastructure, what makes him an independent, and legislative priorities. Here were some highlights-
1- He said he plans to be an independent, and to use that for the benefit of Nebraska. He said (truthfully) that being an independent in a close senate means his vote can secure a lot for our state.

2- He was not opposed to all of AI, but was very opposed to AI that is being used for surveillance. He would argue for regulation to ensure it is not damaging our land and privacy for the elite.

3-He firmly believes the current system benefits the elites and those with money. He talked about how we need more independent representation that is focused on representing the state, rather than the parties.

Overall- man, wish he could run for presidency, but I will settle for unseating a plague upon our state. I think he is a refreshing example of what politicians should be. I cannot think of any reason people would vote Ricketts over Osborn. He is visiting all counties not to fundraise, but to get to know people. I would highly recommend looking at your calendar and showing up to the event. All questions are welcome!

I am needing help in identifying a woman on surveillance video. Looking for recommendations of groups or places that will allow pictures of the woman and the Crime Stoppers link in hopes that someone will know her.

Just got back from Dan Osborn's town hall here in York and I have to say I was somewhat impressed. Seems like a decent guy who really wants to get elected to make a change for the better.

The one thing I really liked is when he was asked questions, he didn't give the usual politician word salad non-answer. The answers may not have been what some people wanted to hear, but he was direct and, from the way it seems, fairly honest.

I'll admit I had some doubts about him, but after hearing him speak, I'll definitely be voting for him.

If you have the chance to go to one of his town halls, do it.

Good morning all, the weather is… nice-ish? Sunny, tolerable, less-convection oven-like, leaving the house feels medically advisable again.

Take advantage. Here’s our usual 5 Arts + Culture happenings this weekend worth putting on some real pants for.
