VOL. 99 ISSUE 68

No date decided to address city officials residence requirement Marissa novel | @MarissaNovelDE The Carbondale City Council removed an item regarding an ordinance to amend a code which requires its executive staff to live within city limits from last night’s meeting agenda. Mayor John Henry pulled the item after requests from the council and citizens were made, according to a press release issued Tuesday. The code requires the city manager, police chief and fire chief, among others, to live within the city’s limits in order to serve their positions. If the code were to be amended, this would no longer be required and officials would be able to reside outside of Carbondale. “This is not the relationship our employees should have with the people they work for,” City Councilwoman Jane Adams said in an email. “Ideally, all city employees would live within the city limits. But, minimally, the people directly responsible for administering the city’s business should live shoulder to shoulder with those they serve, with who pay their salaries.” A solution to amend the code was suggested by City Manager Kevin Baity because many people who are eligible to be promoted to executive positions do not live within the city, according to the email. City Manager Baity said the council has no specified future date to address the item.

Interim dean fills shoes at School of Education Chase Myers | @chasemyers_DE Lyle J. White, professor and counselor education coordinator in the College of Education and Human Services, has been named interim dean for the school effective Tuesday. White will serve from six months to a year depending on when a permanent dean is hired, he said. He has worked as chair of the department of educational psychology and special education from 2002 to 2013, as well as winning various awards over his 26-year career at SIU. “As department chair, you work pretty close to the dean so every once and a while, you think to yourself, ‘If I were dean, how would I do that?’” White said. “I had those thoughts so this is a chance to see what I can do as dean.” Shortly after leaving his Navy post in Norfolk, Va., about 45 years ago, White utilized his bachelor’s degree in psychology to work as a counselor at an elementary school, he said. “Working at the tail end of mental health issues, I really wanted to find something I could do that was more preventative,” White said. He began working at SIU in 1989 as assistant professor in educational psychology and as a staff member at the Clinical Center. White will be taking over the position of Keith Wilson, who stepped down on June 30,

l yle J. W hite

to continue teaching students at the collegiate level. “I’m going back to the faculty, so that will be a nice treat for me quite frankly,” Wilson said. “It will be student centered and all that good stuff.” Wilson held the position from July 2012 to June 2015. Among the accomplishments during his tenure, he has helped increase equal gender representation among the school’s faculty, staff and Executive Council by 23

percent from 2011 to 2013, as well as move the school from 77th to 59th in graduate program rankings nationally. “I think the elephant in the room is the budget for the state of Illinois, SIU and many educational systems in Illinois,” Wilson said. “The budget situation and how to deal with that … I think will be one of his first priorities.” Despite various budget cuts the school has been forced to endure during the last two years, the College of Education and Human Services has been able to decrease unnecessary debt, sending the college in the right direction, he said. “My goal is to, at the minimum, set things up for the next person so we can identify some things that people in the college want to do to make this a good place to work,” White said. White said he wants to give the faculty a chance to participate in the future image of the college and focus on strengthening the connection between the school and the community. He also wants to bolster the college’s status in the university, he said. White has no intention of applying for a permanent position as dean of the school at this time, he said. “You never know what’s around the next bend in a person’s life,” he said. “You have to be careful in saying something that’s absolute that could change when the circumstances change.”

SIU operations to continue through fall if no budget is settled by July 1 Marissa novel | @MarissaNovelDE The university will not close, though Gov. Bruce Rauner has vetoed the budget for fiscal year 2016. President Randy Dunn sent an email Monday stating that all university operations will remain open if a state budget cannot be settled by July 1. “We have identified sufficient cash resources to keep us operating well into the fall semester,” Dunn said. But, Dunn said he cannot say the same for those who are employed on state-funded grants, projects or contracts. “Numerous of our colleagues have been, or yet may be, impacted by the suspension of those state-funded grant programs by the Governor’s Office of Management and Budget,” he said. “It hurts me to watch the wind-down of some of those programs now, impacting people, including those served by the projects, who are just as much as part of the SIU family as any other employee.” The email follows Rauner’s Thursday veto of the budget for fiscal year 2016, which he said was unconstitutional because it is about $4 billion out of balance. “A balanced budget is not just good practice, it is a constitutional requirement...Although the General Assembly has chosen to disregard its constitutional obligation, as Governor I cannot approve a budget that violates this fundamental principle,” he said.

the past three years,” Furst-Bowe said in a statement. “I want to thank SIUE’s senior leadership team, the faculty, staff and students for a rewarding experience.” Furst-Bowe was one of nine candidates originally considered for SIUE’s chancellor position before she ultimately took over in July 2012. As the university’s eighth chancellor, Furst-Bowe developed a new strategic plan focused on online courses and degree programs,

international partnerships and international enrollment. She’s also credited with bringing an added emphasis on diversity to SIUE, including the opening of the Multicultural Center in December 2014. SIU System President Randy Dunn said he’s enjoyed working with Furst-Bowe. “She made numerous contributions to the Edwardsville campus during her tenure,” Dunn said.

a 20 percent cut in state support were to happen. Dunn said the Carbondale campus finished budget reviews last week, and SIU-Edwardsville Chancellor Furst-Bowe and SIU School of Medicine Dean Dorsey have planned with their staffs and constituency groups to address what cuts may come once a budget is decided. “Such a cut would be absolutely

devastating to SIU, but the campuses have those plans drafted if that nuclear option is exercised,” he said. Dunn said the university will remain focused on making its importance known. “And while we stand ready to partner in resolving the state’s fiscal issues, it can’t be done on the back of SIU specifically ... or Illinois higher education generally.”

Southern Illinois University Edwardsville Chancellor Julie FurstBowe is leaving her post and will return to her native Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin. Her resignation is effective August 14.

Activist explains why she Confederate flag poll removed Confederate flag Political affiliation:

Do you see the Confederate flag more as a symbol of Southern pride or more as a symbol of racism? (Survey taken on March 26, 2015)

Joe Marusak | The Charlotte Observer Charlotte activist Bree Newsome said she removed a Confederate battle flag from a Columbia, S.C., flagpole Saturday “in defiance of those who enslaved my ancestors” and over “oppression that continues against black people globally.” Newsome, 30, and another Charlotte activist, James Ian Tyson, also 30, were arrested by the South Carolina Bureau of Protective Services at about 6:15 a.m. Saturday, after Newsome climbed the pole to remove the flag. Tyson stood at the base of the pole. They were charged with defacing state property, a misdemeanor that carries penalties of up to three years in prison or a fine of up to $5,000 or both. Both were released on $3,000 bond, with a trial date set for July 27. State employees quickly returned the flag to its post, but images of Newsome removing the flag quickly spread nationwide. In a statement, Newsome said the deaths of nine people in a shooting at Emanuel AME Church in Charleston on June 17 “shook me to the core of my being. I couldn’t sleep. I sat awake in the dead of night. All the ghosts of the past seemed to be rising.”

She said she gathered with a small group of concerned residents, “both black and white, who represented various walks of life, spiritual beliefs, gender identities and sexual orientations.” The group decided to remove the flag immediately, Newsome said, “both as an act of civil disobedience and as a demonstration of the power people have when we work together.” The group, she said, decided that a black woman should remove the flag and that a white man should be the one to help her over the fence “as a sign that our alliance transcended both racial and gender divides.” “We made this decision because for us, this is not simply about a flag, but rather it is about abolishing the spirit of hatred and oppression in all its forms,” Newsome said. To those who might label her an outside agitator, she said, “I say to you that humanitarianism has no borders. ... My prayers are with the poor, the afflicted and the oppressed everywhere in the world, as Christ instructs. “If this act of disobedience can also serve as a symbol to other peoples’ struggles against oppression or as a symbol of victory over fear and hate, then I know all the more that I did the right thing,” Newsome said.

Rachel Sirianni, an alumna from Chicago who graduated in May with a bachelor’s degree in hospitality and tourism administration, jumps from a cliff at Lake Kinkaid Monday afternoon.“It’s cool to travel anywhere in southern Illinois and have something like this,” Sirianni said.

Circling around Lake Kinkaid Off the beaten path Photos by Written by Sarah Jay Holland Niebrugge

This week, I spent my Monday driving around lake Kinkaid, one of the many great places in the area for hiking and exploring. The trip hardly went as planned as Jay Holland and I arrived at the Kinkaid Lake Spillway expecting to climb the waterfalls. The excessive rain from the past week had other plans for us. The water was too high to cross to the waterfall area and we had to make a quick decision of where we would take our adventure next. We followed the highway in a loop around the lake trying to find the best places to hike or swim. The lake is an artificial reservoir, built in 1968, located just on the edge of Shawnee National Forest. The land surrounding the lake is divided between the Illinois Department of Natural Resources, the U.S. Forest Service and Kinkaid-Reed’s Creek Conservancy District, according to Illinois Department of Natural Resources. Trees and sandstone bluffs line the edges of the water. The one beach we did manage to find,

located at the Johnson Creek Recreational Area trailhead, had been closed down and is now a grassy area beside the trail looking out onto the lake. “The condition of the beach from silt buildup made it unmanageable,” Sue Hirsch, assistant public affairs at Shawnee National Forest, said. We also followed the Hidden Cove trail, which leads across a small bridge and through a wooded area of the lake. During a mid 80 degree-day, it was a nice relief to have as much shade as it lent us. While driving around, we found there were many activities to choose from. Though camping is permitted on some of the area, it is not allowed on the Illinois Department of Natural Resources property. Hirsch said the camping area is well utilized because it is closer to the St. Louis area. Many people also use the lake area for fishing, boating, hiking and horseback riding. Though no motor restrictions are held on the lake, the Illinois Department of Natural Resources website states that a 50 mph speed limit must be followed during daytime and 25 mph speed limit from sunset to sunrise. Our final destination for the day was cliff ledges outside of the camping-prohibited property, which I have not been to since my first year in Carbondale.

The hike to the water was about two miles and took you through fields and woods. You are definitely going to get a good hike out of this trek. The entrance is marked with a small graveled parking area right off the trail. The cliffs are a perfect location to soak in the sun and take a dip in the water. We found a few other people taking advantage of the beautiful day. Rachel Sirianni, an alumna from Chicago, was one of the three people we found relaxing

on the ledge. She said she enjoyed being there when it is not very crowded. Sirianni was joined by two other alumni, Carson Edmonds and David Martin, both from Marion. “It’s a really cool place that I’ve always known about and never visited,” Edmonds said. “It feels like I was missing out the whole time.” After spending a while by the water, the trek back seems much longer. If you are squeamish about tiny

blood-sucking bugs, this trail might not be the best for you. The amount of ticks we found on us and the dog was just more than thirty. Bug spray is a must. Other trip essentials are water and sunscreen of course. You may be covered by wooded areas most of the time, but the sun will find every chance to burn you as I have learned. If you have a full day to spend and want to do some outdoor exploring, Lake Kinkaid definitely has enough to keep you busy.

Built in 1968, Lake Kincaid is a 2,750 acre lake in southwestern Jackson County. “The Kincaid Lake trail system is an extensive system for hiking and equestrian use,” said Sue Hirsch, public affairs assistant for the Shawnee National Forest. “The Johnson Creek Recreational Area is overall an excellent access point for the lake.”

Tori Kelly breaks free on debut album “Unbreakable Smile” Chase Myers | @chasemyers_DE P rovided P hoto

“Ted 2” suffers from an array of inadequacies JaCob WieGand | @JacobWiegand_DE While the first “Ted” was not exactly a piece of comedic genius, it was leaps and bounds ahead of its successor that revisits the life of an adorable teddy bear who can curse, smoke and drink as much as any seasoned sailor. “Ted 2” (Rated R; 115 min) directed by Seth MacFarlane, culminates as the worst of his feature films by relying too heavily on humor that is juvenile and recycled. The sequel to the 2012 film finds Ted, voiced by MacFarlane, and his new wife Tami-Lynn, played by Jessica Barth, going through a rough patch in their marriage. In order to alleviate their problems, they decide to have a child. However, an obvious problem arises when examining Ted’s anatomy, setting Ted and his childhood friend, John Bennett, played by Mark Wahlberg, on a mission to find a sperm donor. One thing leads to another, and Ted discovers he is not considered a human in the eyes of the state and therefore cannot have his marriage legally recognized or adopt a child with Tami-Lynn. A court case ensues where Ted is defended by Samantha Jackson, played by Amanda Seyfried. Now Ted must duel with the courts to fight for his civil rights. “Ted 2” suffers from a dearth of witty and smart comedy. While there are some entertaining parts of the

film, most of the comedy MacFarlane resorts to is rather juvenile and is sure to remind most of the audience of the inappropriate jokes of their junior high years. There is a distinct difference between comedies like “Ted 2” and comedies like “Spy,” which was released earlier this month. “Spy,” directed by Paul Feig, holds up as a solid piece of comedy that uses sharp, witty dialogue to tell its comical tale of espionage. However, a teddy bear getting high with Mark Wahlberg is simply not funny anymore. The film also relies on an excess of shock-value humor. Early in the film, Ted and John go to a fertility clinic, which comes with its own set of inadequate jokes, so John can donate his sperm for Ted’s future child. Ted is shown into the room where all the sperm samples are held and eventually John wanders in and proceeds to knock over a shelf full of sperm samples covering himself in undesirable fluids in the process. This is the kind of cheap humor we would expect in a film like “Jackass,” but not in a decent comedy. MacFarlane is a bit of hit and miss for me. I will laugh at an episode of “Family Guy” or “The Cleveland Show,” but all too often I find myself desiring something of more substance. I enjoyed the original “Ted” a great deal, and even the disappointment that is “A Million Ways to Die in the West” was a higher level of entertainment than “Ted 2.” If you feel the need, go ahead and see it. You will likely find yourself laughing at one point or another. But beware, you very well may leave the theater wondering, “Why did I just spend nearly $10 to see that ridiculous movie?”

In a world where someone can make a video by themselves one day and be known by the world the next, talent can be found all over the Internet. One emerging star, Tori Kelly, a singer/songwriter from Wildomar, Calif., took full advantage of the World Wide Web, where current manager Scooter Braun discovered her in 2013. She released her first EP “Handmade Songs by Tori Kelly” the previous year, containing songs she wrote, recorded and mixed independently. She released an official EP “Foreward” the following year, which debuted at No. 16 on the Billboard 200. Her heavy presence on newer social media outlets like Snapchat and Vine have made promoting her new album “Unbreakable Smile,” which was released June 23, much easier when reaching a broad audience. It felt as if Kelly was holding back when recording “Foreward,” as if she was testing the waters and seeing just how audiences would react to her style and songwriting. Songs like “Dear No One” and “Treasure” showcased Kelly’s soulful yet peaceful voice, but felt primitive for the musician. “Unbreakable Smile” is a project in which Kelly is ironically breaking out of her shell as an artist, which is apparent on some songs more than others. She eases listeners into the album with a slow and short introductory song before throwing us into the title track “Unbreakable Smile,” a personal favorite on the album. This comfortably optimistic track is something to be admired from any artist. Some musicians tend to focus on heartbreak or negative experiences when creating a track, so it’s refreshing when someone can make a happy song and get away with it. “Nobody Love,” a single released in February, where Kelly pulls out all the stops and really shines vocally, follows the song. The track’s gospel inspired instrumentation complements Kelly’s soulful sound. While her trademark vocals take the spotlight on this album, the lyrical artistry should be noticed as a huge improvement on her recent releases. She tackles issues like selling out, the pressures of the music industry and lost love throughout the record. Songs like “Should’ve Been Us,” and “First Heartbreak” bring out those more sympathetic lyrical elements, but show us just how diverse she is as a producer. Both titles suggest slow, sappy songs, but are completely different. One has a hip-hop inspired beat and quick melody while the other is an acoustic guitar and her voice. She also brings Ed Sheeran onto the album, an artist she toured with in 2014, in “I Was Made for Loving You.” The song compliments both voices as they trade melodies and join in unison as the chorus fluctuates in and out. While there are a lot of great moments on this album, I felt there is room to improve. Some songs are not as powerful as others and her unique vocal runs start to disappear as the album continues. Overall, “Unbreakable Smile” is well put together and the high points out-weigh the lows tremendously. Kelly is one of those artists breaking the industry by doing her own thing and in the long run, her personality and mindset alone as a musician could take her far.

Top five video games in 2015 so far Grant Meyer | @GrantMeyerDe June just ended, meaning we are halfway through the year. We have seen a slew of good games come out in 2015 already. But which games stand out? Which games should you not miss out on? These are the top five games so far this year. “The Witcher 3: Wild Huwnt” Developed by the Poland based CD Projekt Red, “The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt” is the sequel to “The Witcher 2: Assasin of Kings,” a game presented to President Barack Obama in 2011 as an example of Poland’s talent and work ethic contributions to the global economy. With that in mind, you can expect a great deal in the game’s sequel. And “Witcher 3” does not disappoint. A vast improvement to its sequel and the best game to come out this year so far, it is an experience not to be missed. “The Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt”

has you take control of a mutated professional monster slayer, Witcher Geralt of Rivia, in a quest to hunt down his lost and magically gifted child, Ciri. I describe this game as “Skyrim with a good narrative,” considering it is an open-world game and it lets you explore a vast environment. You can help any of the multiple villages throughout, defeat powerful monsters, explore the forests and swamps of the landscape or focus on the main storyline. Ultimately, there is a ton to do here and it will take you hundreds of hours to see and do everything. The game plays like a slower paced but no less intense action game that focuses on dodging, parrying and counterattacking. Magic or craft bombs and potions can be used to give you an edge in combat as well. The Witcher series is known to be more hardcore than most games on the market. While a bit of a learning curve is needed to get a feel for the game, this is

the most approachable entry in the series and it does not take long to understand how the game works. Overall, “The Witcher 3” is a great game appealing strongly to people who like exploring, open-world games, action, strong storytelling or roleplaying games. Platforms: PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One “Heroes of the Storm” “Heroes of the Storm” is a new multiplayer online battle arena, or MOBA, from Blizzard Entertainment. This is a great game. Comprised of characters from all Blizzard Entertainment games, it is a mash-up of series like “Warcraft,””Starcraft” and “Diablo.” It has the standard five versus five format as each team battles to destroy the opposing team’s core, a structure deep in each team’s territory. What makes “Heroes of the Storm” stand out among other games is its

accessibility and simplicity while still managing to have great depth in its gameplay. “Heroes of the Storm” mixed up the normally strict formula of MOBAs by removing genre tropes such as buying items in a match, leveling up individually and playing on a single map. This game is for people who want something fresh or different in MOBAs or are new to the genre but want to get into it. Overall, “Heroes of the Storm” is a unique game worth checking out. Platforms: PC, Mac “Bloodborne” This is a new game from developer FromSoftware, famous for the extremely difficult “Dark Souls” series. Set in the monster infested gothic city of Yharem, “Bloodborne” has the player take the role of the Hunter as he tracks down the “Paleblood” for reasons not known to the player. Favoring a more offensive approach

to combat than its predecessors, this game is similar to other games of FromSoftware because it is punishingly difficult but does not make you feel like you have been cheated in defeat. You learn from your mistakes. Repeated trial in combat against enemies teaches you the best way to go about moving through this challenging game. This game is for fans of FromSoftware, very difficult games or heavy actionfocused games. Platforms: PlayStation 4 “The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask 3D” The 2000 Nintendo classic “The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask” is considered to be one of the best games of all time. “The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask 3D” is a remaster, or upgrade to the sound and look of a game to modern standards.

Massacre victims recieve an honor long overdue

Jacob Wiegand | @jacobwiegand_DE

The Herrin Massacre took place June 21 to 22, 1922. During this time, a coal miner strike occurred across the nation, but a mine near Herrin brought in non-union workers to keep the mine open. This greatly angered many union workers who were on strike and as a result, many of these non-union workers were killed by those in the union in what became known as the Herrin Massacre. The massacre claimed the lives of 22 men, 19 non-union and 3 union workers, although others died later as a result of their injuries, Scott Doody, author of “Herrin Massacre,” said. A ceremony was held at Herrin City Cemetery Thursday to finally honor those who lost their lives 93 years ago. Members of the Herrin American Legion Post 645 and Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 1567 were present to pay tribute to the six World War I veterans who were killed in the massacre. Frank Fenton, a member of the Herrin Honor Guard, said this is the first time the soldiers have been honored. “That’s what we’re here for, is to put them to rest the way they should have been,” said Fenton. Other Herrin residents including city officials were also present. “Today we’re mending a wound that was opened 93 years ago and I hope the healing process can begin, because it’s something that’s long overdue,” said Bill Sizemore, an alderman and chairman of public works in Herrin. But some of the victims’ bodies were not discovered until 2013. Doody, who is also a radio talk show host, said someone called into his show telling him to go to Herrin and find the graves of the massacre victims. He said he came to Herrin City

J acob W iegand | @jacobwiegand_DE Bill Sizemore, alderman of Herrin and chairman of public works, addresses members of Herrin American Legion Post 645 and Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 1567, about the significance of the new monument built in honor of victims of the Herrin Massacre Thursday.

Cemetery in 2009 only to find the location of the sixteen graves had been lost. Doody said he pulled together a team of excavators which, during about a four year period of time, performed several digs. “There are popular legends about some being buried on the spot,” Robert Corruccini, a professor emeritus in the department of anthropology and member of the excavation team, said about the potential whereabouts of the other six victims who were not buried in the cemetery. One of the members of Doody’s team was Steven Di Naso, a geospatial scientist in

the department of geology and geography at Eastern Illinois University. Di Naso, who met Doody in March of 2010, said he proposed the idea to map out the cemetery to make a historical model of where all of the bodies were buried. This led to finding the location of Herrin’s potter’s field, which is another name for a graveyard for strangers and the poor. Eventually the team narrowed down their search to two likely locations. The first location did not yield the graves of the miners, but on the first day of the team’s excavation of the second location in November

Di Naso played a key role in discovering the graves of victims.

of 2013, they found the graves of eight of the sixteen miners. “History was made here in ‘22 and then history was made here again in ‘13,” Doody said. “A group of us have made history by finding these guys.” Last month, a monument was placed at the site where the eight bodies of the victims were discovered. The excavation team plans to return to Herrin City Cemetery at an unspecified date to continue their search for the other eight victims. “This is the largest attack of union versus non-union in history of the country,” Doody said. “It’s not the largest loss of life. Like for instance the year before in Virginia, National Guard troops killed coal miners. This was union coal miners killing non-union miners, no outside intervention, no National Guard.”

Timeline of Events April 1, 1922 - United Mine Workers of America begin a nationwide strike. June 16, 1922 - W. J. Lester, owner of Southern Illinois Coal Company, ships out railroad cars filled with coal after firing all of his union workers and hiring 50 strikebreakers from Chicago. June 21, 1922 - Union workers begin attacking non-union workers and a total of 22 men were killed in multiple incidents. November 12, 2013 Scott Doody and his team of excavators find the bodies of 8 miners. June 25, 2015 - A ceremony is held at Herrin Cemetery to commemorate the lives lost.
