One lucky player who bought a Nebraska Pick 5 ticket for the Friday, May 7 drawing is holding a ticket worth $50,000.

The Nebraska Lottery has confirmed that one ticket sold for Friday’s Nebraska Pick 5 draw matched all five winning numbers for the $50,000 jackpot. The ticket was sold at Kwik Stop #01, 120 South Jeffers, in North Platte. The winning numbers from Friday’s Nebraska Pick 5 draw were 03, 06, 07, 11, 30. Players are encouraged to check their tickets at any Nebraska Lottery retailer, online at nelottery.com, or by calling the Lottery office at 402-471-6100.

Winning Nebraska Lottery Lotto tickets expire 180 days after the drawing. Prizes of $20,000 or more must be claimed in person at Lottery headquarters in Lincoln. Additional information about claiming prizes can be found at the Nebraska Lottery website, nelottery.com, or by calling 800-587-5200.

Nebraska Pick 5 is Nebraska's unique Lottery game: all the proceeds from Nebraska Pick 5 stay in Nebraska, and all the winning tickets are sold in Nebraska at Nebraska Lottery Lotto game retailers.

The odds of winning the Nebraska Pick 5 jackpot, which starts at $50,000 and grows each drawing that it is not won, are 1 in 501,942. The overall odds of winning any Nebraska Pick 5 prize which has drawings seven nights a week, are 1 in 8.

During the month of May, the Nebraska Pick 5 jackpot will increase by $10,000 each time it is not won because of the Nebraska Pick 5 Jackpot Promotion. See nelottery.com for details.

The mission of the Nebraska Lottery is to generate proceeds for good causes while providing quality entertainment options to Nebraskans. Over $818 million has been raised for the Nebraska Lottery’s beneficiary funds since the Lottery began in 1993. All 93 counties in Nebraska have benefited from projects funded with these Nebraska Lottery proceeds.

BELLEVUE, Neb. (AP) — Two Nebraska teenagers are charged with attempted first-degree murder and other crimes for allegedly attacking a man with a metal meat tenderizer and a wooden rod. 

The Omaha World-Herald reports that one of the suspects, 18-year-old Gabriella Laws, is the daughter of the victim. The other suspect is 18-year-old Josh Fithian. Both are accused of attacking Robert Laws in his bedroom in Bellevue in January.

A police affidavit says officers were called to a home just after 2 a.m. Jan. 17 and found Robert Laws with injuries so severe he was placed in a medical coma to treat brain bleeding and cranial factures.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — A proposal to let people play keno on their mobile phones in Nebraska bars and keno parlors stalled abruptly after lawmakers stripped it out of a casino legalization bill. 

Lawmakers voted 27-11 to remove the provision from a broader bill that would regulate Nebraska’s new casino industry. 

Voters legalized casinos in November despite opposition from prominent gambling opponents, including Gov. Pete Ricketts. 

Voters didn’t directly address keno when they approved the constitutional amendment to allow casinos. But supporters argued that casinos will end up hurting the keno industry, which generates millions of dollars in tax revenue for Nebraska cities each year. 

Under current state law, keno is still played with paper cards, while casinos offer flashier, computerized games.

News Release Attorney General Doug Peterson

LINCOLN, Neb.-Attorney General Doug Peterson joined in co-leading a letter along with the attorneys general of Massachusetts, Tennessee, and Vermont. The letter cites serious concerns about the safety and well-being of children and the harm social media poses to young people and contends that Facebook has historically failed to protect the welfare of children on its platforms.&nbsp;

The coalition of 44 attorneys general is urging Facebook to abandon its plans to launch a version of Instagram for children under the age of 13.&nbsp;

“The business model of almost all social media platforms is to get the user to be engaged on the screen for as long as possible. This allows companies like Instagram to accumulate extensive personal data on every user to be sold to advertisers. The fact that they now want to focus on collecting the data of children is very troubling,” stated AG Peterson.

In their letter, the attorneys general express various concerns over Facebook’s proposal, including research that, in addition to social media harms to the well-being of children; rapidly worsening concerns about cyberbullying on Instagram; use of the platform by predators to target children; Facebook’s checkered record in protecting the welfare of children on its platforms; and children’s lack of capacity to navigate the complexities of what they encounter online, including advertising, inappropriate content, and relationships with strangers.&nbsp;

National Center for Missing &amp; Exploited Children’s CyberTipline is the nation’s centralized reporting system for the online exploitation of children, including child sexual abuse material, child sex trafficking, and online enticement. They noted in 2020, Facebook and Instagram reported 20 million child sexual abuse images.&nbsp;

The attorneys general also cast doubt on Facebook’s ability to protect children on their proposed Instagram platform and comply with relevant privacy laws such as the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).

In addition to the co-leading states, today’s letter is joined by the attorneys general of Alaska, California, Connecticut, Delaware, District of Columbia, Guam, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Northern Mariana Islands, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Puerto Rico, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Washington, Wisconsin, and Wyoming.&nbsp;

CAMARILLO, Calif. (AP) — The average U.S. price of regular-grade gasoline jumped 6 cents over the past two weeks, to $3.02 per gallon. 

Industry analyst Trilby Lundberg of the Lundberg Survey says Sunday that the increase comes as the costs of crude oil and ethanol also rose. Ethanol must be blended by refiners into gasoline, per federal rules. 

The price at the pump is $1.05 higher than it was a year ago. 

The highest average price in the nation right now is $4.16 a gallon in the San Francisco Bay Area. The lowest average is $2.55 in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Nebraska prosecutors have been successful in getting death sentences for convicted murderers. But, as the state adds to its death row population, many who oversee the state's capital punishment largely ignore the fact that Nebraska has no lethal injection drugs and very likely won’t get any for years, if ever. 

While the nation remains divided over capital punishment, Nebraska stands out for its peculiar version of the institution. 

It’s still wedded to the idea of executing prisoners, just not the practical part of doing it. 

The state is among a handful caught in a law vs. reality netherworld as legislatures and activists wrestle over how the issue will eventually play out.

Mother's Day Photo Contest

LINCOLN, Neb. – Free Fishing and Park Entry Day in Nebraska is May 22. Enjoy a Saturday of fishing or state park activities during the park system centennial year without the need to purchase a fishing or park entry permit for the day.

Free Fishing and Park Entry Day, held annually in Nebraska on the Saturday preceding Memorial Day weekend, means anyone can explore outdoor opportunities at any Nebraska state park, state recreation area or state historical park. Anglers must observe all fishing regulations. Camping, lodging and all other user fees still apply at state park areas.

In conjunction with the event, Ponca State Park will host the Bill Morris Memorial Fishing Derby and Fremont Lakes State Recreation Area will host the Bob Bruner Memorial Fishing Derby.

Ponca’s derby, which is open to all ages, is from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. Participants may fish as long or little as they like and can win prizes. Event rules and an official derby measuring tape should be picked up at the Resource and Education Center, where bait is available for purchase and loaner fishing poles are available upon request.

Fremont Lakes SRA fishing derby, for children, is from 9 a.m. to noon. Local radio stations, volunteers and civic groups will be on hand to provide food, prizes, loaner fishing tackle, bait and instruction.

Those fishing on May 22 also are encouraged to participate in the Take ’em Fishing challenge, in which anglers pledge to take new or inexperienced anglers fishing. Fish permits typically are required for anglers age 16 and older – but not on Free Fishing and Park Entry Day.

ST. LOUIS (AP) — Yadier Molina drove in three runs in his return from the injured list, Paul Goldschmidt homered and the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Colorado Rockies 9-8. Goldschmidt also had three RBIs and Nolan Arenado hit another double against his former team. The Cardinals have won eight straight and 14 of their last 15 games against Colorado at Busch Stadium. Molina hadn’t played since April 26 because of a strained tendon in his right foot. The All-Star catcher was leading the Cardinals in batting, homers and RBIs when he was hurt.

&nbsp; CHADRON, Neb. – May 8, 2021 –&nbsp;Freshman outfielder&nbsp;Mackenzi Kroll's&nbsp;late-game heroics on Saturday salvaged the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference series against visiting Regis University, and resulted in a split doubleheader, sending the Eagles into the offseason on a high note. The second-year player from Brighton, Colorado, hit what was probably the longest home run of the season for the Eagles, with two outs in the bottom of the seventh inning, to break open a tie game in the final contest of the four-game series. It put a silver lining on a trying season for the Eagles, who lost their top two pitchers and a veteran first baseman to finish 13-27 (13-23 RMAC) and ranked 9th&nbsp;of 12 in the league. "There wasn't a question in my mind," said CSC Head Softball Coach&nbsp;Kaley Ness, "as soon as she made contact with the ball, that it was going way over fence. It was really exciting to see. Mackenzi is capable of so much power, so it was really nice to see her end the season that way." Both teams hit safely in game three of the series, in the morning, and no player on either team had more than one base hit in the game. Pitchers Taylor Armitage (13-3) of Regis and&nbsp;Gabby Russell&nbsp;(4-8) of CSC were the pitchers of record for the third consecutive game in the series, and dueled to a low-scoring 4-3 Rangers victory. Regis jumped on top first in its first at-bat, however CSC evened things up 2-2 by the bottom of the third. Junior second baseman Madison Flores gave the Rangers a go-ahead run in the fourth with an RBI single in the fourth, prompting Coach Ness to relieve Russell, who ended the series later with 19.0 innings of work. Sophomore&nbsp;<a href="https://chadroneagles.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=4553">Peyton Propp</a>&nbsp;entered and allowed only one base hit the rest of the way, striking out five batters, however three defensive errors by CSC in the fifth gave Regis the winning score. True Freshman&nbsp;Paige Propp, sister of Peyton, provided an additional run on an RBI single in the sixth, but the Rangers (19-5, 16-14 RMAC) escaped with the 4-3 win, clinching an RMAC Tournament berth, after retiring four of the final five Eagles batters. Game four, in the afternoon, went much like the previous affair, with the Rangers leading 4-3 through five innings. The two teams combined for eight defensive errors. Regis' pitchers were charged only three of CSC's seven runs, and Russell, who started for CSC and endured 6 2/3 innings, was charged with only two of the Rangers' five. Once again, Regis went up 2-0 to start the game, but CSC freshman designated player&nbsp;Micah Stouffer&nbsp;countered with a two-RBI single in the third. The Rangers' fourth inning mirrored the earlier game as Flores provided an RBI single for her team following an unearned run, making it a 4-2 game. An RBI double by CSC freshman utility player&nbsp;Jessie Henchenski&nbsp;was the highlight of the team's fourth inning at bat, which included two other hits and a sac bunt, drawing the Eagles back to within a single run at 4-3. Facing another close loss at 5-3 entering the bottom of the seventh, the Eagles were aided by a pair of Regis errors, but they got another double from Henchenski and an RBI single from senior catcher&nbsp;<a href="https://chadroneagles.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=4647">Bailey Rominger</a>&nbsp;to tie the game with no one out. Two infield pop flies preceded Kroll's homer, which went at least 10 feet past the bleachers along the left field fence to seal the deal for the Eagles. Though Russell carried the load in the pitching circle for the Eagles, Propp (6-9) was the pitcher of record by entering in the top of the seventh, down 5-3, and finishing the game with the lead. Kara Rodeheaver of Regis entered the game up 5-4 and was charged the game-winning home run to receive the loss and fall to 1-4 on the season. CSC is expected to return most of its top players, including top hitter&nbsp;Bailey Marvel, a sophomore, and ace pitcher&nbsp;Tia Kohl, a junior, in addition to bringing in several quality high school prospects.&nbsp;&nbsp;

 </figure>By: Kaleb Center, CSC Sports Information&nbsp; CHADRON, Neb. – May 8, 2021 –&nbsp;Freshman outfielder&nbsp;Mackenzi Kroll's&nbsp;late-game heroics on Saturday salvaged the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference series against visiting Regis University, and resulted in a split doubleheader, sending the Eagles into the offseason on a high note. The second-year player from Brighton, Colorado, hit what was probably the longest home run of the season for the Eagles, with two outs in the bottom of the seventh inning, to break open a tie game in the final contest of the four-game series. It put a silver lining on a trying season for the Eagles, who lost their top two pitchers and a veteran first baseman to finish 13-27 (13-23 RMAC) and ranked 9th&nbsp;of 12 in the league. "There wasn't a question in my mind," said CSC Head Softball Coach&nbsp;Kaley Ness, "as soon as she made contact with the ball, that it was going way over fence. It was really exciting to see.

DENVER (AP) — Jon Gray tossed six strong innings and helped himself with an RBI single, and the Colorado Rockies held off the San Francisco Giants for a 6-5 win. Gray allowed two runs and four hits. The right-hander also struck out eight and walked two while improving to 4-0 in five home starts. Daniel Bard worked a shaky ninth for his third save in five opportunities. The Giants scored an unearned run on catcher Dom Nuñez’s throwing error, but Darin Ruf bounced to shortstop with a runner on third for the final out.

MLB's third no-hitter thrown by Orioles' Means

SEATTLE (AP) — John Means threw the major leagues’ third no-hitter this season and came within a wild pitch on a third strike of a perfect game, pitching the Baltimore Orioles over the Seattle Mariners 6-0. Means struck out 12 and walked none. Seattle’s runner was Sam Haggerty after he struck out swinging on a curveball in the dirt on a 1-2 count with one out in the third inning that bounced away from catcher Pedro Severino. Haggerty was thrown out attempting to steal second. Means threw 79 strikes among 113 pitches, including first-pitch strikes to 26 of 27 batters.
