It was a long and 
exhausting evening for firefighters from several departments around the region 
last night. A fire at the Oasis Senior Center in downtown Lincoln brought 
in departments from as far away as Sherman and Latham. The fire that was 
reported around 5:30 last evening took over three hours to extinguish. To 
the credit of the Lincoln Fire Department and all those who assisted, the blaze 
did not spread to the adjacent building, which houses several business offices as 
well as apartments. LDN had several photographers on the ground at the 
scene. The photo albums below depict the fire from a variety of angles.

This undated black-and-white file photo shows World War II hero Raoul 
Wallenberg, Sweden's envoy to Nazi-occupied Hungary. Wallenberg, the Swedish 
diplomat who saved thousands of Jews from Nazi-occupied Hungary, may also have 
had a secret military mission during World War II, a new book claims. It was 
revealed Saturday that Swedish-Hungarian writer Gellert Kovacs told The 
Associated Press: "For me it is very clear that it was also Wallenberg's mission 
to act as some kind of coordinator between the resistance forces and the 
Allies." Citing documents from Hungarian archives, Kovacs says 
Wallenberg, whose fate remains shrouded in mystery, had closer links with 
Hungary's non-Communist resistance movement than previously thought.
