It’s just five days until football kicks off in Lincoln and if you’re going to the game you might notice some fresh security measures. The day is coming when more than 90,000 fans will pack Memorial Stadium, but what you can bring into that stadium has switched. A fresh policy permits only clear bags. The largest the bags can be are twelve inches by six inches, and the treat cannot exceed Four.Five by 6.Five inches. Some fans think it might be a bit of an adjustment.

It’s just five days until football kicks off in Lincoln and if you’re going to the game you might notice some fresh security measures. The day is coming when more than 90,000 fans will pack Memorial Stadium, but what you can bring into that stadium has switched. A fresh policy permits only clear bags. The largest the bags can be are twelve inches by six inches, and the treat cannot exceed Four.Five by 6.Five inches. Some fans think it might be a bit of an adjustment.

Winnebago Tribe to install 1,000 solar panels

WINNEBAGO, Neb. (AP) – An indigenous tribe plans to install 1,000 solar panels at a reservation in northeast Nebraska. The Winnebago Tribe will install panels across more than a dozen sites, generating more than three hundred kilowatts of solar power. The installations are projected to reduce energy bills by about $40,000 a year.

What you need to know about the clear bag policy at Memorial Stadium

It’s just five days until football kicks off in Lincoln and if you’re going to the game you might notice some fresh security measures. The day is coming when more than 90,000 fans will pack Memorial Stadium, but what you can bring into that stadium has switched. A fresh policy permits only clear bags. The largest the bags can be are twelve inches by six inches, and the treat cannot exceed Four.Five by 6.Five inches. Some fans think it might be a bit of an adjustment.

What you need to know about the clear bag policy at Memorial Stadium

It’s just five days until football kicks off in Lincoln and if you’re going to the game you might notice some fresh security measures. The day is coming when more than 90,000 fans will pack Memorial Stadium, but what you can bring into that stadium has switched. A fresh policy permits only clear bags. The largest the bags can be are twelve inches by six inches, and the treat cannot exceed Four.Five by 6.Five inches. Some fans think it might be a bit of an adjustment. Renee Loahous, a senior at the Univ.

Winnebago Tribe to install 1,000 solar panels

WINNEBAGO, Neb. (AP) – An indigenous tribe plans to install 1,000 solar panels at a reservation in northeast Nebraska. The Winnebago Tribe will install panels across more than a dozen sites, generating more than three hundred kilowatts of solar power.
