Off-duty officer in
fatal wrong-way crash
had left strip club
LINDEN, N.J. (AP) A car carrying three off-duty New
Jersey police officers from a visit to a strip club drove the wrong
way down a New York City highway and crashed head-on into
a tractor-trailer early Friday, killing an officer and a civilian
and critically injuring two other policemen.
Hours before the crash, the officer driving the car posted a
photo on his Instagram page of three shot glasses filled with
what he identified as Jack Daniels Fire on the house. Police
said they were investigating whether drinking explains how the
group ended up driving north in the southbound lane of the
Staten Island highway.
We were all young once and Im sure weve all done stupid
things in our life, said Linden Police Chief James Schulhafer.
But that being said, because this is an ongoing investigation,
it would be way too premature to speculate on what caused this
accident.
The dead were identified as 28-year-old Linden Officer
Frank Viggiano and 28-year-old Joe Rodriguez, a former county employee. Both were passengers in the car.
The 27-year-old driver, Pedro Abad, and 23-year-old passenger Patrik Kudlac, also Linden police officers, were listed
in critical condition at hospitals on Staten Island. Linden police
Capt. James Sarnicki said they have severe and extensive injuries and are fighting for their lives.
Abads blood has been drawn, and investigators have applied for a warrant to test his blood-alcohol level, the New York
Police Department said.
The truck driver suffered injuries that werent believed to be
life-threatening.
Video taken by a surveillance camera at a gas station shows
a car traveling the wrong way on a service road minutes before
the wrong-way crash on the adjacent highway. A southbound
exit ramp leads from the highway onto the service road.
Gas station attendant Ramzi Abdelhaq told WABC-TV hes
seen cars traveling the wrong direction on the service road before. The time stamp on the video showing the car reads 4:48
a.m. Police received a 911 call of a crash on the highway at
4:51 a.m.
One tractor-trailer swerved out of the way of the car on the
West Shore Expressway on Staten Island, but a second didnt
have enough time to veer away before the crash, Royster said.
NYPD spokeswoman Kim Royster said the cars black box
will help investigators determine how fast they were traveling.
Images of the crash scene show the truck and car smashed
against the center guardrail and the car ravaged.
Sarnicki said all three officers were relatively new to the
force and were unmarried without children. Viggiano was a
five-year veteran, Abad was a six-year veteran and Kudlac had
two years on the job.
At this point our thoughts and prayers go out to the family
of Officer Frank Viggiano, he said, describing him as wellliked by everybody. This is an unspeakable tragedy.
Rodriguezs father, Angelo, called his son my pal in an
interview with The Associated Press at the familys home in
Linden. He said they planned to go trout fishing in two weeks.
He described his son as well-spoken, well-mannered and always willing to help people. He said his son loved basketball
and fishing and had lots of friends.
Rodriguez didnt seem angry at the driver, saying that it
doesnt matter if the driver was drinking because accidents
happen. At times, he broke into tears.
Im still in shock, he said. He aint coming home no
more.
Joes uncle, Joseph Simone, described him as family-oriented.
He was too young, Simone said. He was too young. I was
with him yesterday and hes gone today.
Abad posted a photo of the drinks on his Instagram page
before the crash that included a caption of a toast he said he
had given.
The 3 of us, are decent people. Theres a decent woman out
there for each of us. Sure its cool to be single every now and
then, but I dont give a damn what ANYONE says. At the end
of the day, I want a family. I want to settle down. We all do. So
heres to finding that which we all hope for.
Other images on his Instagram page include photos of him
serving in the honor guard at the funeral last weekend for a
Philadelphia police officer killed in the line of duty.

Bombings
in Yemeni
mosques kill
more than 130
ADEN, Yemen (AP)
Suicide bombers attacked a
pair of mosques Friday in the
Yemeni capital, unleashing
monstrous blasts that ripped
through worshippers and
killed 137 people in the deadliest assault yet targeting Shiite rebels who have taken over
large parts of the rapidly fragmenting nation. At least 13
children were among the dead.
A purported affiliate of the
Islamic State group claimed
responsibility for the bombings, which also wounded 357
people raising the alarming
possibility the extremist group
has expanded its presence to
Yemen after already setting
up a branch in Libya. Earlier
this week, the group claimed
responsibility for a bloody
attack on Western tourists in
Tunisia that authorities said
was carried out by militants
trained in Libya.
If the claim is true and
the U.S. expressed skepticism
Fridays attacks would be
the first by the Islamic State
group in Yemen, adding a
frightening new layer to the
countrys turmoil.
Shiite rebels known as
Houthis have taken over the
capital, Sanaa, and nine of
the countrys 21 provinces
over the past six months, raising fears of a civil war tinged
with sectarianism. The government of the internationally
backed president, Abed Rabbo
Mansour Hadi, has fled to the
southern port city of Aden.
Yemen is already home to
the most powerful branch of
the al-Qaida network, which
has been battling the Houthis
for months. On Friday, al-Qaida militants seized control of
a southern provincial capital,
al-Houta, in the groups most
dramatic grab of territory in
years. However, it denied carrying out the mosque bombings, citing instructions from
the terror networks leader,
Ayman al-Zawahri, not to
strike mosques or markets.
Fridays blasts left scenes
of bloody devastation in
the Badr and al-Hashoosh
mosques, located across town
from each other in Sanaa.
Both mosques are controlled
by the Shiite Houthis, but they
are also frequented by Sunni
worshippers.
40 percent
water shortfall
possible in
world by 2030
NEW DELHI (AP)
The world could suffer a 40
percent shortfall in water in
just 15 years unless countries
dramatically change their use
of the resource, a U.N. report
warned Friday.
Many underground water
reserves are already running
low, while rainfall patterns are
predicted to become more erratic with climate change. As
the worlds population grows
to an expected 9 billion by
2050, more groundwater will
be needed for farming, industry and personal consumption.
The report predicts global
water demand will increase
55 percent by 2050, while reserves dwindle. If current usage trends dont change, the
world will have only 60 percent of the water it needs in
2030, it said.
Having less available water risks catastrophe on many
fronts: crops could fail, ecosystems could break down,
industries could collapse, disease and poverty could worsen, and violent conflicts over
access to water could become
more frequent.
Unless the balance between demand and finite supplies is restored, the world
will face an increasingly severe global water deficit, the
annual World Water Development Report said, noting
that more efficient use could
guarantee enough supply in
the future.
The report, released in
New Delhi two days before
World Water Day, calls on
policymakers and communities to rethink water policies,
urging more conservation as
well as recycling of wastewater as is done in Singapore.
US tightens
fracking rules
WASHINGTON (AP)
The Obama administration
said Friday it is requiring
companies that drill for oil
and natural gas on federal
lands to disclose chemicals
used in hydraulic fracturing,
the first major federal regulation of the controversial drilling technique that has sparked
an ongoing boom in natural
gas production but raised
widespread concerns about
possible groundwater contamination.
A rule to take effect in June
also updates requirements for
well construction and disposal
of water and other fluids used
in fracking, as the drilling
method is more commonly
known.
The rule has been under
consideration for more than
three years, drawing criticism
from the oil and gas industry
and environmental groups
alike.
The industry fears federal
regulation could duplicate efforts by states and hinder the
drilling boom, while some
environmental groups worry
that lenient rules could allow
unsafe drilling techniques to
pollute groundwater.
Reaction to the rule was
immediate. An industry group
announced it was filing a lawsuit to block the regulation.

Trust Me
As was discussed in last weeks editorial space in this newspaper, March 15-21 is known as Sunshine Week, a celebration
of open government and access to public records.
The celebration has been short lived.
Under pressure for using a personal email account for official work while serving as the Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton released more than 30,000 emails she and her people have
labeled work related. According to her, she has deleted all
the others - another 30,000 plus - because they were personal
messages.
And therein lies the problem for Clinton as she moves forward in an attempt to become the next President of the United
States. Only Clintons people decided what was and was not
pertinent to the public good. There was no independent third
party involved, such as the Department of Justice, to judge
whether this email should be available for public access and
that one should not. She has essentially looked at the rest of the
world and said, Trust me.
More than anyone else wanting to run for the highest office
in the country, Clinton should know why we do not allow public officials to get away with that statement. It was not that long
ago when someone already seated in the Oval Office looked
straight into the camera and lied directly to the American people.
And, no, we are not going down the Blue Dress road.
We are referring to President Nixon when he told the U.S.
People have got to know whether or not their President is a
crook. Well, Im not a crook.
At the same time Nixon was making that statement, he was
attempting to halt the investigation into illegal activities that
led to the Watergate scandal. He lied to investigators, threatened potential witnesses, and destroyed evidence. A part of the
House judiciary legal investigation team was a 27-year-old lawyer - Hillary Rodham (later Clinton).
Clinton had the opportunity during the Watergate scandal
to see firsthand why elected officials are not afforded the right
to say trust me when the question is about access to public
records. The Government in Sunshine Act was enacted in 1976
in direct response to Nixon and his actions so no other public officials would be able to decide on their own what should
and should not be made public knowledge. This and other
Freedom of Information Acts were created to promote greater
transparency in government actions. Although Sunshine Laws
have changed over the years, adding and subtracting various
exemptions, the basic purpose remains the same: to give the
American people enough information to be able to trust their
government is working in the countrys best interest.
So, at a time when Republicans would not trust Democrats
to tell them the sky was blue, Democrats would not believe
Republicans if they said water was wet, and 90 percent of people living outside the Washington beltway would not trust any
of them to tell the truth about anything - Clinton is asking the
American people to trust her.
There is just no trust left to give.

Dont be gullible
My Internet education
began many years ago by
learning a valuable rule: Just
because you read something
on the Internet, that doesnt
mean its true. As a natural
skeptic, thats been an easy
rule for me to remember.
But, as I poke around on the
web, Im reminded, time after
time, that many others are not
so inclined. Some will believe
a story before ever checking it
out for proof.
Sure, Im a reporter. My
instinct is to check out stories
for truth. And the truth is that
many times what you read online is not truth, but opinion
often uninformed opinion.
Occasionally these stories are
just lies or jokes designed
to spread untruths.
People didnt need the Internet to become gullible. Being gullible is a by-product of
being too lazy to look things
up. For instance, did you
know the word gullible isnt
in the dictionary? Go, look it
up. Ill wait.
So, you looked it up and
found that gullible actually is
in the dictionary, huh? Thats
something a gullible person
would never discover because

fundraiser a success
To the editor,
The Van Wert YWCA recently held its
second annual Basket Bingo fundraiser
on March 7. The fundraiser highlighted
Stephanie Dawn Totes and Longaberger
baskets filled with items donated from
community businesses and individuals.
One hundred nineteen bingo players
gathered at the Van Wert County Council on Aging hall and enjoyed a morning
full of bingo, door prizes and fellowship.
The basket bingo fundraiser raised over
$4,000 in proceeds which will be used
to support the YWCA Transitional Living Program, Summer Food Program
and Domestic Violence Services.
The YWCA would like to thank

board.
Dallas County only allowed voter registration two days per month.
On one October day, more than 300
blacks lined up at the courthouse
outside the voter registration department. Included with them were
several prominent actors and authors. Anyone carrying a sign was
arrested immediately and people
who attempted to bring water or
food to those waiting in line were
arrested as well.
After the Civil Rights Act was
passed in 1964, 50 blacks lined up
to register to vote in Selma. Sheriff
Clark arrested them all. To worsen
the situation, Judge Jim Hare passed
an injunction that forbade gatherings of more than three people for
the purpose of discussing civil
rights, effectively making it impossible to promote voter registration.
Selma had become one of the
hottest points of contention in the
civil rights movement.
SELMA/16
One was a proclamation setting forth the background and noting that Wallace had refused to provide protection for the marchers as directed by Federal Judge Frank M. Johnson Jr.
The other was an executive order giving the Secretary of Defense the necessary authorization.
The order provided for the use of any and all of
the states Army and Air National Guard, thus raising the possibility that Negroes might be among the
march protectors.
The National Guard Bureau in Washington said
there are no Negroes in the Army Guard, but that
the Air Guard includes two Negro members.
The march is meant to dramatize what civil rights leaders say is the states discrimination
against Negroes and their voting rights.
The 50-mile march originally was scheduled
March 7. Alabama State Police used night sticks
and tear gas to break it up almost as it began.
The federal court stepped in to order a temporary delay to the march after civil rights leaders had
sought to get a court ban against any interference.
A second, brief march, led by the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., was staged after the court order.
It ended near Selma without violence.
The court subsequently decreed that the march
could go on, and said that Wallace should provide
protection to prevent violence.
Wallace then suggested that since a federal court
had issued the order, the federal government should
provide the protection.
In reply, Johnson said the governor could call up
the Guard, but that if he were unwilling or unable to
do so, the President would take that action.
free hotline for known service members that will verify active ZIP codes
in support of operations in Bosnia-Herzegovina, Iraq, Kuwait, and Afghanistan. Callers can also inquire about
any restrictions imposed on the mail
by the occupied country. It is important
to note that mail is subject to inspection by foreign governments and must
follow the guidelines of each countrys
customs regulations. Thinking back to
the times of the World Wars and Korea when there were no ZIP codes, bar
codes, or computers to help delineate
one military post office from another,
it is hard to believe how the incredible
volume of mail was delivered to these
overseas units.
The mail is transported on both
commercial and military aircraft and
commercial sealift vessels. Mail traveling by air is supposed to reach military post offices in Europe, Central and
South America, and the Pacific within
seven days. Items bound for Southwest
Asia that travel by air could take between 11 and 14 days for receipt. Surface mail is no longer a service that is
available to military mail. In the days
when this was an option the MPSA had
a goal of 30 days for delivery. We are
often asked about programs like Any
Service Member program for military personnel deployed in support of
Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring
Freedom, which did not require a specific individuals name or unit. These
programs were discontinued for some
time and you will need to contact your
local post office for additional information. If you ever spent a week in
the armed forces stationed away from
home, you understand the importance
of mail delivery.

BOWLING GREEN Through two quarters of play, Delphos St. Johns Alex Odenweller had hit four 3-point field goals and totaled 20 points to keep the Blue Jays within
36-32 of state-ranked Wayne Trace.
However, the Raiders switched to a triangle-and-two defense that bottled up Odenweller in the second half, and Wayne Trace
pulled away late to record a 65-56 victory to
advance to next weeks Division IV state tournament in Columbus.
Wayne Trace (25-1) will play on Thursday
morning at 10:45 a.m. against Canal Winchester Harvest Prep (24-4).
We werent going to let two kids beat us,
commented Raider head coach Jim Linder of
the switch in defenses. It is something we
have played at times this year but really havent been very good at it. Tonight, we did a
pretty good job in it.
Junior guard Luke Miller was the catalyst,
limiting Odenweller to four shots in the second half.
Every time I would come off of a screen,
he was right there, maybe an inch of space,
noted Odenweller.
It came down to effort, Miller noted of
his defensive prowess. I just knew I had to
stay with him and we just had to find a way to
get it done. He hit some shots in the first half
and we needed to limit those opportunities in
the second half.
The Blue Jays were limited to 9 of 29
shooting in the second half (31 percent) after
hitting 10 of 20 shots in the first half.
Despite the defensive effort, Delphos St.
Johns made a run late in the third quarter.
Trailing 42-36, the Blue Jays held Wayne
Trace scoreless in five straight possessions be-

James was late coming out of the locker

RaIDERS-JaYS
(From page 10)
BY EDDIE PELLS
AP National Writer
SEATTLE (AP) Freshman Quentin Snider hit the winning free throws
and Terry Rozier made the saving steal
Friday to help fourth-seeded Louisville
top UC Irvine 57-55 and send the tournaments tallest player packing.
With the game tied, Snider snagged a
rebound in the corner off a long miss by
Luke Nelson and drew a foul when Will
Davis II crashed into him.
Snider, who finished with a career-high 16 points, made the free throws
with 8.9 seconds left and the Anteaters
(21-13) never got a final shot, thanks to
Roziers pick of Alex Young.
Wayne Blackshear had 19 points
for the Cardinals (25-8), who will play
Northern Iowa on Sunday for a trip to
the Sweet 16.
Mamadou Ndiaye, the 7-foot-6 center,
finished with 12 points and five rebounds
for the Anteaters, but he didnt touch the
ball over the last two minutes and UC Irvines first-ever trip to the NCAA Tournament came to a disappointing close.
Every time the sophomore, out of
Senegal, touched the ball, a roar went
through the crowd. And Ndiaye was a
force through much of the second half.
Twice, he gathered the ball in the post,
palmed it like a tennis ball and slammed
it through the hoop without really leaving his feet.
On the other end, he blocked one shot,
altered about a dozen more and forced

from the perimeter.
But things changed when the Big Fella got his fourth foul with 2:26 left, and
it cost UC Irvine dearly.
Trailing 55-53, Blackshear took the
ball straight at Ndiaye, who didnt contest it much, and hit a short shot over him
to tie it with 42 seconds left.
On the next possession, Nelson, who
came to UC Irvine from Great Britain,
dribbled the clock down, but jacked up a
shot from a few feet behind the 3-point
line that rimmed out.
There was a scramble in the corner. Snider grabbed the ball, and in the
scrum, Nelson fell into him to set up the
freshman for the winning points. The
Cardinals had two fouls to burn, and after using one of them, Rozier could be
reckless, so he dove at Davis with the
clock ticking down and made the steal
to seal the win.
AP Sports Writer
Needing to score quickly, the Blue Jays were unable to convert on a long-distance 3-pointer and Miller brought down the
Raiders rebound. The junior guard then stepped to the line and
hit both foul shots to give Wayne Trace a 59-51 advantage with
42 seconds left.
He made some big plays for us tonight, added Raider head
coach Jim Linder of Miller. He was big on the defensive end
there in the second half and hit some big shots for us.
From there, the Blue Jays missed two straight 3-point attempts and Wayne Trace hit three of four free throws on the
opposite end to seal the 65-56 victory.
We are excited to make the trip, continued Raider head
coach Jim Linder. It was a battle tonight. We knew coming
in they were very good defensively and we just had to play
through it. I am so proud of the guys.
Early on, it appeared that Wayne Trace was going to take
control.
The Raiders scored 13 of the games first 18 points with senior David Sinn scoring eight points in the stretch. Miller also
hit the opening 3-pointer of the game for Wayne Trace.
Coach just told me that I was stronger than they were and
to take the ball to the basket, stated Sinn. He wanted me to be
more aggressive tonight.
I think he really gained confidence there in the first quarter, Coach Linder noted. We told him it that we wanted to be
a force down there and he did a great job for us.
However, the Blue Jays rallied in the second quarter. St.
Johns opened the period on a 13-6 run to close within 28-24
on an Odenweller basket.
We had seen in some of their games where they got off to
a great start and then teams came back on them, Elwer said.
We told the guys just keep doing what we want to do and not
to panic.
Odenweller finished the game with 20 points while grabbing four rebounds and picking up two steals. Grothouse added
18 points and dished out three assists for Delphos St. Johns,
which closes the year with a record of 20-7.
Evan Hays chipped in eight points and Austin Heiing picked
up three rebounds and an assist for Delphos St. Johns. Conley
also recorded six points and four rebounds.
Odenweller, Grothouse, Hays, Heiing and Conley all played
their final game in a Blue Jay uniform.
This is a great group of seniors and a tough group to say
goodbye to, Elwer concluded. They have done a lot for our
program and we have played the best we have in a while since
mid-February.
Sinn topped the Raiders with 15 points and seven rebounds
while Ethan Linder added 14 points, five rebounds and three
assists. Corbin Linder and Miller chipped in 12 and 11 points,
respectively. Miller also recorded seven rebounds and Corbin
Linder dished out four assists.
Luke, Ethan and Corbin were managers the last time we
went in 2008, concluded the Raider head coach. So they have
all gotten to experience it a little bit. This is something this
group has dreamed about since they started playing together
back in third or fourth grade.

At 6:30 p.m., one-half of the 330 people
registered for the event will participate in
Make It Take It, a cooking demonstration with
chefs where families rotate through stations,
Holliday explained. The other one-half will
be involved in a walking and healthy food
scavenger hunt in the gymnasium.
Holliday said there will be a fifth-grade
cook off (similar to the reality show Chopped)
at 7:30 p.m. where students team up with
teachers, are provided food items, and a pantry to create healthy snacks.
Guest judges and Chef Carrie Hamilton
from Apollo, will judge the created snacks,
Holliday detailed.
College
(From page 1)
English Composition will be available
to juniors who are ready for junior-level English and College Algebra will be available for
students who are qualified to take our Math
Analysis, Ross explained. Public Speaking
and Creative Writing - Fiction will be electives for our juniors and seniors and the other
courses will be elective options for all of our
high school students with priority given to upperclassmen.
Student who opt to take other courses will
need to travel to the college they choose or
take them online. Students can potentially
earn from a college semester of credits to a
full years credits using the program. Students
must also meet requirements with satisfactory
SAT or Compass scores to be eligible for the
College Credit Plus courses.
Weve just finished our current round
of state testing so I will be giving students
specific information on how to schedule the
courses during meetings with the different
grade levels the first of April, Ross said. We
are hoping we will be able to offer our students the valuable opportunity to earn free
college credit and also prepare for the rigors
of college while still in high school.
Jefferson will continue to offer the same
Advanced Placement Courses, including AP
Calculus, AP Statistics, AP Literature and
Composition and AP Language and Composition.

The first attempted march
took place on March 7, 1965,
and has become known as
Bloody Sunday. It was organized in response to the
death of Jimmie Lee Jackson
who had been shot by an Alabama State Trooper while
trying to protect his mother
and grandfather during a civil
rights demonstration in adjacent Perry County. The plan
was to march from Selma
to Montgomery to ask Gov.
George Wallace to protect
black citizens attempting to
vote.
In response, Wallace declared the march a threat to
public safety. The 600-person march made it six blocks
down the street before Alabama State Troopers and
members of the Dallas County Sheriffs Department attacked the demonstrators
with clubs, whips, and tear
gas. Though these kind of
beatings had happened before
on smaller scales, this time
the brutality was all caught
by television cameras and
broadcast to stunned Americans across the country.
Images of bloodied woman
and young people as well as
vicious attacks on black men
created a huge uproar.
