Daily Journal - Millville, NJ January 8, 2010: MAYS LANDING—A former professional soccer player has been sentenced to 5½ years in state prison for causing a fatal crash in Atlantic County.
Matthew Maher of Cape May must serve 85 percent of the term imposed Thursday before becoming eligible for parole.
He was granted time-served credits for 34 anti-drunken driving presentations he has made at schools and colleges since pleading guilty in October to aggravated manslaughter and drunken driving. Those presentations included events in October at Cumberland County College in Vineland that were sponsored by the South Jersey Traffic Safety Alliance.
In March 2009, Maher's sport utility vehicle crashed into the rear of a minivan on the Atlantic City Expressway, killing 55-year-old Hort Kap of Philadelphia.
Maher, 25, played in five games for the Philadelphia Kixx of the National Indoor Soccer League in the 2008-09 season.

Famous quotes containing the word personal:
“Adolescence is a tough time for parent and child alike. It is a time between: between childhood and maturity, between parental protection and personal responsibility, between life stage- managed by grown-ups and life privately held.”
—Anna Quindlen (20th century)
“What stunned me was the regular assertion that feminists were “anti-family.” . . . It was motherhood that got me into the movement in the first place. I became an activist after recognizing how excruciatingly personal the political was to me and my sons. It was the women’s movement that put self-esteem back into “just a housewife,” rescuing our intelligence from the junk pile of “instinct” and making it human, deliberate, powerful.”
—Mary Kay Blakely (20th century)
“Close friends contribute to our personal growth. They also contribute to our personal pleasure, making the music sound sweeter, the wine taste richer, the laughter ring louder because they are there.”
