Students in the Commercial Driver Training program at Mid-Plains Community College will soon have a new tool to help them achieve success on the road.

MPCC purchased a VS600M truck simulator and school bus module from Virage Simulation that will save wear and tear on the college’s semi-trucks while still allowing students to practice and prepare for some of the many driving conditions they will experience in real-life situations.

The interactive simulated scenarios can be used to teach both basic and advanced driver training under a number of road, traffic and weather conditions. Special attention can be given to shifting, maneuvering in confined areas, energy efficient driving and hazard perception.

“It’s going to save on fuel and repairs to trucks and as well as be more environmentally friendly because it won’t be burning diesel and putting emissions out,” said Josh Young, MPCC Motor School program coordinator. “One of the biggest benefits is that we will be able to simulate scenarios that can’t be simulated in real life. We can emulate a front tire blowing out with this machine, and the steering wheel will literally jerk out of the student’s hands. Driving in icy and snowy conditions is also something that can now be practiced safely.”

Young traveled around the country trying different simulators to find the best one for MPCC. The model decided on had unique features that made it stand out above the rest.

“Probably the biggest difference between this one and the second-choice option was that if you’re shifting the Virage simulator and miss the shift, it vibrates and makes a grinding sound just like a real truck,” Young said. “This was the most realistic simulator of any that were tried.”

The Virage simulator is modeled on a standard truck cabin and is made of real truck parts. It consists of a fully functional pneumatic driver seat with typical controls, a seat belt, pedals and a fully adjustable steering column with integrated flashers and trailer hand brake.

A range of truck models – everything from dump trucks to highway tractor-trailers and semi-trailers – engine performances, transmission configurations, differentials and payloads can be imitated. Realistic vehicle behaviors can be reproduced under various loading conditions and the effects of gravity while driving on hills can be replicated.

The simulator has both automatic and manual transmissions and a multi-function touch display for a wide range of truck driver controls and applications.

The visual system is a key component. It has both a 180-degree forward field of view plus rear view mirrors. The system consists of three high-resolution LCD displays that allow objects to move smoothly and continuously across the panels without distortion.

Students can practice driving in city, highway, industrial, farmland and mountainous environments. A full range of road surfaces and adjustable weather conditions are included.

A state-of-the-art motion and vibration system not only enhances the immersive experience but also improves overall speed perception.

It provides cues for vehicle acceleration and deceleration, curves and obstacles such as sidewalks and pot holes. Vibrations from the tires on the replicated road surface change and are transmitted through the seat, steering wheel and simulator platform.

The simulator won’t replace any of the on-the-road training required through the college’s CDL program, but it will supplement the classroom instruction. Classes have been filling as soon as they are offered.

About 241,200 openings for heavy and tractor-trailer truck drivers are projected each year, on average, until 2032, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Many of those openings are expected to result from retirement.

“The need is greater than ever, and there isn’t a huge amount of qualified drivers coming up,” Young said.

His goal is to mount the new simulator in a trailer so that it can be rolled out to all of the college’s campuses within MPCC’s 18-county service area.

“I would like to eventually be able to take it to high schools and get people interested in the truck driving industry at a younger age,” Young said. “We are also working with the trucking industry to enhance the skills of current drivers through behind-the-wheel training. A school bus module purchased with the simulator will allow us to partner with area schools for continuing education of their bus drivers.”

The total cost of the simulator and school bus module was $132,484, of that, $116,886 was provided by Perkins V state match funds. The funding includes instructor training on the simulator, preventative maintenance and online support.

Union Pacific's famed&nbsp;<a href="http://www.up.com/up/heritage/steam/4014/index.htm" target="_blank">Big Boy No. 4014,</a>&nbsp;the world's largest steam locomotive, will return to the rails this summer with a scenic tour across mountain ranges and high desert vistas in four western states: Wyoming, Utah, Nevada and California.

The monthlong “Big Boy Westward Bound” tour, which starts June 30, will honor Union Pacific's rich railroad legacy and celebrate the railroad's employees and communities it serves. For part of its journey, the Big Boy's consist will include an assortment of rail cars giving spectators a glimpse into what the locomotive looked like pulling freight in its heyday.

“The Big Boy locomotive symbolizes the pivotal role railroads played in shaping our nation's history, and the technological advances we have witnessed within our industry,” said Union Pacific CEO Jim Vena. “We are thrilled to share this living piece of history with our employees and the public, and we love seeing the enthusiasm this locomotive generates wherever its whistle blows.”

Big Boy will journey from its home base in Cheyenne, Wyoming, en route to Roseville, California, before returning to Wyoming by the end of July. It will make numerous whistle-stops in communities along the way, with public display stops scheduled in:

Additional route details and approximate times for whistlestops will be shared closer to the tour.

This is one of two public tours planned for Big Boy in 2024, with a second tour planned later this fall with stops in Texas, Arkansas, Kansas, and Illinois, among other states. Details of the second tour will be released later this spring.

During the tour, the&nbsp;<a href="http://www.uprrmuseum.org/" target="_blank">Union Pacific Museum</a>&nbsp;will host a special passenger trip. The unique experience is the annual gala fundraiser for the nonprofit organization and provides a rare opportunity to travel on this historic heritage equipment. More information and ticket information will be posted at&nbsp;<a href="http://www.uptraintix.com/" target="_blank">www.uptraintix.com</a>&nbsp;as the tour gets closer.

Union Pacific reminds all rail fans to keep safety top of mind and stay 25 feet back from the tracks when taking a picture or viewing this mammoth machine. That means never take a picture or video standing on the track or the ballast and never climb on the locomotive or equipment.

A steam tracking map showing No. 4014's location and route will be available at&nbsp;<a href="http://www.up.com/up/heritage/steam/index.htm" target="_blank">upsteam.com</a>.

Nearly 400 high school seniors to receive honor cords from MPCC

Kristine Henningsen has been selected as Mid-Plains Community College’s Business Student of the Month for April.

Henningsen is from North Platte. She graduated from North Platte High School in 1993 and returned to MPCC as a non-traditional student. She was motivated by the convenience of having the college close to home and her familiarity with it.

“I had previously taken classes from Mid Plains following high school and felt comfortable with the campus,” Henningsen said. “I have really appreciated the support and advice that I have received numerous times from my instructors. Their guidance and help has made going back to school much easier.”

Henningsen is currently pursuing an Associate of Applied Science degree in Business with an emphasis in entrepreneurship through MPCC’s online offerings. She is on track to graduate in May of 2025, and after that, hopes to obtain a grant writing certificate.

“My heart and passion is in small business, as I am an owner of a small business already,” Henningsen said. “I’d like to help small businesses and non-profits grow and thrive in our community.”

Henningsen was chosen for the Business Student of the Month recognition by all of MPCC’s business faculty.

“Returning to school as an adult, Kristine has exemplified the ideal student through her dedication, insightful contributions and professionalism in the business program,” her nomination letter reads. “Her outstanding academic performance, coupled with her ability to balance work, family and school obligations, makes Kristine truly deserving of this recognition.”

Outside of school and work, Henningsen enjoys spending time with family, including husband Brandon Raby, and their three French bulldogs.

04/09 Ogallala City Council Meeting Agenda

Tax reviews stand as a crucial component in ensuring financial compliance and transparency for individuals and businesses alike. In an era marked by increasingly complex tax laws and regulations, conducting thorough reviews of one's tax filings has become more imperative than ever. 

These reviews serve as a proactive measure to identify any discrepancies, errors, or potential red flags that could lead to audits or penalties down the line. By investing time and resources into regular tax reviews, taxpayers can not only mitigate risks but also optimize their tax strategies to minimize liabilities and maximize savings.

One of the primary benefits of conducting tax reviews is the opportunity to rectify any errors or inconsistencies before they escalate into larger issues. Whether it's a simple calculation mistake, a misunderstanding of tax laws, or a misclassification of expenses, identifying and correcting these errors early on can prevent costly repercussions in the form of fines, interest, or legal consequences.

Additionally, by reviewing past tax returns, individuals and businesses can uncover potential opportunities for refunds or tax credits that may have been overlooked in previous filings, ultimately putting more money back into their pockets.

Furthermore, tax reviews serve as a proactive approach to staying compliant with ever-evolving tax regulations. With tax laws subject to frequent changes and updates, taxpayers must stay informed and adapt their strategies accordingly. Conducting regular reviews allows individuals and businesses to stay ahead of these changes, ensuring that their tax filings remain accurate and compliant with the latest requirements. 

By staying proactive and vigilant in their tax review processes, taxpayers can navigate the complexities of the tax landscape with confidence and peace of mind, knowing that they are in full compliance with applicable laws and regulations.&nbsp; &nbsp;

Call today and make a appointment at North Platte at 519 South Dewey or call 308-532-8685 or in Ogallala at 22 North Spruce. Tim and the team is ready to help you!

By investing time and resources into regular tax reviews, taxpayers can not only mitigate risks but also optimize their tax strategies to minimize liabilities and maximize savings.One of the primary benefits of conducting tax reviews is the opportunity to rectify any errors or inconsistencies before they escalate into larger issues. Whether it's a simple calculation mistake, a misunderstanding of tax laws, or a misclassification of expenses, identifying and correcting these errors early on can prevent costly repercussions in the form of fines, interest, or legal consequences.<figure>

With tax laws subject to frequent changes and updates, taxpayers must stay informed and adapt their strategies accordingly. Conducting regular reviews allows individuals and businesses to stay ahead of these changes, ensuring that their tax filings remain accurate and compliant with the latest requirements.

<a href="https://nebraskaexaminer.com/briefs/from-red-cloud-to-fremont-seven-ne-towns-share-4m-in-awards-to-perk-up-community-appeal/">Nebraska Examiner</a>

LINCOLN — Seven Nebraska cities will share $4 million in state grants to help develop recreation and civic improvement projects in their communities.

Selected and announced by the Nebraska Department of Economic Development, the recipients’ awards come from the state&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://opportunity.nebraska.gov/programs/community/cccff/">Civic and Community Center Financing Fund</a>, which was created from a turnback of 30% of state sales tax generated by arenas and nearby retailers.&nbsp;

Revenues to the fund are rebounding since the pandemic, but the amount available for rural cities and villages and tribal governments this year was less than typical for the fourth straight year, according to the DED.

“People attraction is a top priority for Nebraska, and these awards are helping communities strengthen their appeal,” DED director K.C. Belitz said in a news release. “We’re investing funds to support the development of state-of-the-art recreation.”

Belitz said the projects help create gathering places that enhance local quality of life and pride.

The fund is designed to help plan or build civic, community and recreation centers or to convert and rehabilitate historic structures.

Such grants cannot account for more than half of the project’s total cost.

This year’s awards include a $100,000 planning grant to the City of McCook for its creative district.

Other cities poised to receive funds for capital construction projects:

It provides substantial financial support to Nebraska students pursuing degrees in animal science or veterinary science at UNL’s College of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources.

Governor Pillen emphasized the critical need for production animal veterinarians, not only in Nebraska but across the nation. "Through this collaboration with UNL, Nebraska will be a leader in boosting the number of graduates in this field," Governor Pillen stated.

Chancellor Rodney D. Bennett expressed strong support for the program, highlighting its alignment with UNL's strategic goals. "The Nebraska Elite 11 Veterinarian Program aligns with two key aims of the University of Nebraska-Lincoln — attracting, retaining, and graduating Nebraska’s best and brightest students, and contributing to resolving pressing issues within the state of Nebraska," Chancellor Bennett said.

The scholarship initiative aims to address the shortage of food animal veterinarians, particularly in rural areas, where the livestock industry is a significant contributor to the economy. By providing financial assistance, the Elite 11 Program aims to remove barriers to veterinary training and encourage more students to pursue careers in food animal veterinary medicine.

Under the revised application timeline, up to 25 first-time freshmen will receive the Nebraska Aspiring Animal Production Veterinarians Program Scholarship, covering 50% of their tuition for the first two years. After the second year, up to 13 scholarship recipients will be awarded a continuation scholarship, covering 100% of tuition for the third and fourth years of study. Ultimately, 11 students will be selected as part of the Elite 11, receiving full tuition and fees for UNL’s professional program in veterinary medicine.

Dean Tiffany Heng-Moss expressed gratitude for the support from the state of Nebraska in making this program possible. "This is an important program that will have a big impact on our state, our agriculture industry, and on the students who take part in it," Dean Heng-Moss remarked.

Graduates of the Elite 11 Program commit to staying in Nebraska and practicing as production-animal veterinarians for eight years.
