1 of 5 - Another Southern Illinois Tour - Carbondale area & SIU!
Part 1 of 5. Another tour of Southern Illinois. This one took place in August, 2013. The entire tour takes you from (part 1) Marion to Giant City State Park, (part 2) up to SIU campus, around the campus lake and ends at the parking lot at Lawson Hall. (part 3) It continues by Brush Towers (across campus), a tour east of campus to 51S. Continues to two of my favorite cities, Cobden and Alton Pass. It does not take you to Bald Knob Cross. After Alto Pass, we head south on Rt 127 and (part 4) east on Rt 149 to Anna. We head up to SIU for a short tour on the south side of campus with views of the football stadium and arena. Last leg of tour heads out of campus and along road between Rec Center and Brush Towers. Then, heading back to hotel, back roads are taken. All sections are 'sped up' for easier and faster viewing.

KFVS12 Carbondale Southern Illinois Spotlight 2017 Great American Eclipse
MAKANDA, IL (KFVS) -
Excitement is building ahead of an out-of-this-world event that’s still more than a year away.
The Great American Eclipse on August 21, 2017 will plunge a portion of southern Illinois into mid-day darkness, and tens of thousands of spectators will venture to Jackson County to experience it.
Solar Eclipse Project Manager Mike Kentrianakis with the American Astronomical Society is among those looking forward to the Great American Eclipse.
Kentrianakis is somewhat of an eclipse chaser. A video he shot onboard Alaska Airlines flight #870 recently went viral, as Kentrianakis just couldn’t contain his excitement at seeing a total solar eclipse for the first time at 35,000 feet.
“This video I couldn’t believe what I was saying,” “I even laughed when I heard my voice breaking. I wasn’t myself. An eclipse reaches into something inside you as everything is changing. The sun goes out, the moon comes in the landscape is different; there is darkness in the sky, the shadow of the moon… I’ve got everyone the world over making fun of me, but they keep saying it’s a great video. It shows the excitement. An eclipse itself, it’s hard to show an eclipse there is no video that can do it.”
Gallatin County High School science teacher and filmmaker Lindsay Adams is trying to do just that. She hopes to capture the excitement leading up to the total solar eclipse in southern Illinois on video – and her first endeavor was booking a seat on flight #870 from Alaska to Hawaii to record the March 8 total solar eclipse that was not visible in the continental United States.
“It was a perfectly clear shot, in my video you see the wing of the plane and that’s it - it’s just the sky and the sun,” said Adams. “The video is going to be part of my documentary I’m making about southern Illinois, mostly Carbondale and how they’re preparing for the eclipse.”
Adams will also encourage her students to study the eclipse and make their own films on the once-in-a-lifetime event.
“There’s a lot of science involved and it doesn’t happen very often and it’s going to go right over their school and the area that they live,” said Adams. “They’ll get to be right in the middle of it and learn the science and get to see the telescopes and it’s going to bring multiple subjects together.”
Astronomers say Carbondale will be right in the center of what’s called the path of totality. That means a front-row seat for the first total solar eclipse to sweep across the United States since 1918.
“Totality is – that’s what everyone’s going to be amazed at when it happens in Carbondale,” said Adams. “When the moon covers up that last sliver of sun and you take off those glasses – that is amazing.
The small town of Makanda, south of Carbondale sits at the exact center of the path of totality. Shop owner Dave Dardis painted an orange line straight through the center of the town’s famous boardwalk to mark the location.
“When something ethereal, cosmic comes through an artists’ town – you make it real,” said Dardis. “So this is a real line that goes through the shop and out the back door.”
Estimates put an additional 50,000 to 100,000 sets of eyes heading into southern Illinois’ portion of the path of totality in August 2017. The tiny town of Makanda is banking on a boon for local businesses.
“We’re preparing for Woodstock, basically,” said Makanda resident and eclipse planner Joe McFarland. “The other really cool thing about Makanda is we’re going to have another total solar eclipse seven years later in 2024. That one will cross over Makanda too – so we are the eclipse crossroads of America. That’s our claim to fame.”
The American Astronomical Society will be holding a pre-eclipse conference at Southern Illinois University June 10 and 11.

Earthquake : 3.4 magnitude earthquake reported in southern Illinois, is Fracking responsible?
An earthquake has been reported by the U.S. Geological Surveyat 7:41pm near Fairfield, Illinois. The USGS says the center of the 3.4 magnitude quake was just 6 miles north of town.
The Illinois Basin of the Ozark Dome region borders the much more seismically active New Madrid fault zone. The USGS says frequent earthquakes occur at irregular intervals throughout the region.
A 5.4 magnitude earthquake damaged buildings in southern Illinois in 1968. It is the largest recorded historical earthquake in the region.
So far no damage has been reported.
As it turns out, the Illinois earthquake struck directly at a FRACKING operation! Some claim fracking operations put hydraulic pressure on fault lines BELOW the operations.
Hydraulic fracturing, commonly known as “fracking,” does not appear to be linked to the increased rate of magnitude 3 and larger earthquakes.
Although wastewater injection has not yet been linked to large earthquakes (M6+), scientists cannot eliminate the possibility. It does appear that wastewater disposal induced the M5.3 Raton Basin, Colorado earthquake in 2011 as well as the M5.6 quake that struck Prague, Oklahoma in 2011, leading to a few injuries and damage to more than a dozen homes.

Southern Illinois University School of Medicine Becomes Clinical Site for CVM Phase III Trial
CEL-SCI Corporation (NYSE MKT: CVM) today announced its Phase III Head and Neck Cancer clinical trial of its investigational cancer immunotherapy treatment Multikine* (Leukocyte Interleukin, Injection) has activated another U.S. clinical site at Southern Illinois University School of Medicine's Simmons Cancer Institute in Springfield, Illinois. The Illinois site, which has become part of the world's largest Phase III trial for head and neck cancer with dozens of hospitals and clinical centers in 12 countries, has now officially joined the study. According to the National Cancer Institute, researchers estimated that about 52,000 men and women in the U.S. will be diagnosed with head and neck cancers annually.
The Multikine Phase III study is enrolling patients with advanced primary, not yet treated, head and neck cancer. The objective of the study is to demonstrate a statistically significant improvement in overall survival of enrolled patients who are treated with the Multikine treatment regimen plus Standard of Care (SOC) vs. subjects who are treated with SOC only. CEL-SCI's Multikine investigational immunotherapy is intended to create an anti-tumor immune response to reduce local/regional tumor recurrence and thereby increase the survival rate of these patients.
Southern Illinois University School of Medicine's SIU HealthCare is the University's health care practice which served over 477,000 patients in 2013. SIU HealthCare has nearly 240 teaching physicians providing new treatments and technologies that have transformed the practice of medicine. SIU HealthCare's clinical outreach extends to approximately 100 sites in 46 Illinois communities.
Dr. Krishna A. Rao, M.D., Ph.D., will serve as the Principal Investigator for the CEL-SCI's Phase III head and neck cancer trial at Southern Illinois University School of Medicine. Dr. Rao is an Associate Professor of hematology and medical oncologist specializing in head and neck cancer. Previously, he was at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle, Washington, where he completed a four-year fellowship in hematology and medical oncology. Dr. Rao completed his internal medicine residency at Mayo Graduate School of Medicine in Rochester, Minnesota.
We are pleased to have the opportunity to enroll patients from Illinois into our Phase III trial which offers a potential new way to treat cancer by using the body's own natural immune system as a first-line treatment. The clinical investigators at Southern Illinois University School of Medicine will be a key part of our global trial which is designed to include over 100 centers across the world, with ten to twelve of them being in the U.S. Our intention is to rapidly add numerous additional clinical sites in the U.S. and accelerate patient enrollment in this country, stated CEL-SCI Chief Executive Officer Geert Kersten.
