Meeting of the Great Rivers National Scenic Byway

The 33-mile byway begins in Hartford, leading you through Alton and bends along the forested river bluffs to its end point in Grafton, at Pere Marquette State Park.
Based on the book Haunted Alton by Troy Taylor, Alton Hauntings Tours offers an entertaining and spine-tingling trip into the unknown, taking visitors to the most authentic haunted places in Alton.

Visitors will see sites that have become nationally known, like the old Alton penitentiary, First Unitarian Church, Enos Sanitarium and many others. The tours have been proven to be popular with ghost enthusiasts and history buffs alike, and nowhere else can you learn as much about the real, haunted history of Alton.

J.E. Robinson Underground Railroad Tours
In the early 1800s, Alton became a safe haven for slaves escaping from the bonds of slavery. Because of the area's neighboring slave state of Missouri, runaways found refuge in the free land surrounding Alton. The tunnels of the Underground Railroad run deep beneath the streets along the "Alton Route." The area was a major stop along the Underground Railroad, hiding slaves in caves, barns and basements throughout Alton, Otterville and Jerseyville. Hear the slave's tales, feel their fear and learn about Alton's remarkable past on an Underground Railroad Tour. Tours available by appointment only.

The 14,000 square-foot exhibit space contains six galleries that outline the background and history of the Lewis and Clark expedition from its conception to its meaning for today's America. Exhibits are kid-friendly, offering opportunities for hands-on engagement. A "reconstruction" of the winter camp, Camp Dubois, is located on the grounds near the visitor center. Its design reflects 1803 U.S. Army regulations for the construction of military posts. Interpreters are on-site daily in the camp to explain how the men prepared for the journey.

Abe Lance Furlow
Former Durango resident Abe Lance Furlow died Sunday, Jan. 20, 2013, at his home in Lamesa, Texas. He was 97.
Known as Lance, he was born to Abe and Betty Furlow on Sept. 19, 1915, in Alto, Texas. He was one of five children. His family moved to Dawson County from East Texas, arriving on Mr. Furlows ninth birthday. He started school at McCarty and then graduated from Lamesa High School in 1934.
After his graduation, his family moved to Littlefield, Texas, where he met Amelia Rietman. Her stunning good looks and kind heart won him over, his family wrote, and they married on Dec. 6, 1936. Their honeymoon lasted 69 years.
The couple eloped to Clovis, N.M., to get married.
As a young man, Mr. Furlow took up baseball and softball and was still the family pitcher in his 80s.
In 1959, the Furlows moved to Durango. Mr. Furlow worked at Telluride Welding Co., until his retirement, when he worked for the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad.
He was active in the First United Methodist Church, the Benevolent & Protective Order of Elks Lodge No. 507 and a local dance group.
The Furlow family enjoyed fly fishing, trap shooting, hunting, golfing and many family picnics.
The Furlows returned to Lamesa in 1986, where he resumed farming. At this time, he renewed his childhood love of rattlesnake hunting and fishing.
He and Amelia patrolled the Borden County roads, his family said, and Lance was proud to be able to finish a snake with one shot to the head.
Mr. Furlow was preceded in death by his wife of 69 years, Amelia Furlow.
He is survived by his daughters Brenda Isgar of Durango, Marilyn Staggs of Ackerly, Texas, Sheila Hensley of Camp Verde, Ariz., and Barbara Jasper of Austin, Texas; sons Steve Furlow of Brownfield, Texas, and Mark Furlow of Lamesa; 14 grandchildren; and 18 great-grandchildren.
A funeral will take place at 1 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 26, 2013, at Second Baptist Church of Lamesa. Jim Wright and Daniel Armstrong will officiate. A private burial will be held afterward in Lamesa Memorial Park.
Memorial contributions may be made to the American Cancer Society, P.O. Box 22718, Oklahoma City, OK, 73123, or to the charity of ones choice.
Online condolences may be sent at www.branonfuneralhome.com.

Traveling can be a stressful time for anyone. However, travel for people with pulmonary hypertension may be especially stressful with extra planning needed before a trip. Issues to consider include medication, blood clots, emergency contact information, overexertion, need for oxygen and eating on the road. For many patients who use supplemental oxygen or who have borderline low oxygen levels, method of travel will play a major role.
Travel to higher altitudes may present a specific challenge due to lower oxygen levels in the air. When traveling on the road by car, train or bus at higher elevations, increased levels of supplemental oxygen may be necessary, especially when above 4,000 – 5,000 ft. Symptoms to look for include fatigue, more shortness of breath at rest or with activity, rapid breathing, lightheadedness, rapid heartbeats and headaches. On the road, the change in elevation may be gradual and not noticeable until you get out and move around. However, the change occurs rapidly if traveling by plane. Fortunately, passenger airplanes pump compressed air into their cabins when traveling above 10,000 ft. But oxygen levels are 25 percent lower in pressurized cabins compared to sea level. People who use oxygen only at night or one to two liters with activity typically do well without the need for oxygen during the flight. However, people who use two liters at rest or three to four liters with activity will likely need oxygen during air travel.
In some medical clinics, one can perform an "altitude test" using a special pressurized chamber to test oxygen levels at different altitudes to determine whether oxygen will be needed. The test, however, is not routinely needed prior to travel. Certain portable oxygen concentrators (POC) can be used in-flight but must be approved by the airline ahead of time. Empty oxygen tanks and POC can also be checked as luggage.
Certain medications like epoprostenol (e.g., Flolan®) require pumps, cooled storage and extra supplies. Carry extra tubing, needles, backup pump and extra medication. Be prepared in case of delays by having extra medication packed in your carry-on luggage. If your medication requires being kept cool, bring six to eight ice packs and a premixed dose. Anticipate how you could handle flight delays or cancellations.
Long periods of inactivity during travel may raise the risk of developing a blood clot. With air travel, get up and be active. Consider support stockings for your legs if you have had a blood clot in the past. If traveling by ground, stop frequently (at least every two hours) and walk for a couple of minutes.
We eat differently when we travel. Be aware of eating foods that are high in salt as extra fluid will be retained. Try to eat lightly with lots of fruits and vegetables and limit the temptation to eat fast food (high in salt).
Talk to your doctor ahead of time and come up with a plan in case you develop symptoms such as swelling in the legs, worsening shortness of breath, fatigue or other symptoms. Get your medical certificate at the visit. Carry your PH center contact numbers with you. Ask your PH doctor who they would recommend you contact in the area you are traveling if you need medical attention.

The Saline County rivalry was renewed again Wednesday as Harrisburg hosted Eldorado in the final home game for the Bulldogs.
Coincidentally, the final home game also served as the final stop four Harrisburg seniors as Cody Hall, Justin Younger, Ryne Roper and Chris Willsey were joined with their parents at Dorris Heights prior to the start of the game.
The four seniors were part of a 127-8-1 record in four years at Harrisburg and as winners of 14 of their last 15, the Bulldogs were looking for more momentum heading into the upcoming offseason.
Harrisburg will host the upcoming regional that will include Massac County, Vienna, Eldorado and Hamilton County. Should the Eagles get by Hamilton County it would set up a round two matchup with the Bulldogs, but on Wednesday, Harrisburg drew first blood blanking EHS 7-0.
Matthew Phipps (3-0) got the win on the bump as he went five innings and allowed three hits, while walking two and striking out six.
Devin Aldridge (1-2) took the loss for the Eagles, going 2 1/3 innings, giving up three runs on three hits while walking three and striking out one.
Drew Woolcott came in for relief, handling the third through fifth innings and Dylan Riddle pitched the sixth.
Harrisburg scored in every inning but the third, putting up two runs in the first and tacking on a run in the second.
Willsey's base hit into right field scored Braxton Keasler, pinch running for Brady Mayer, who reached base two batters earlier on a fielder's choice scoring Ryne Roper who led the inning off with a walk.
Noah Vallette led the second inning off with a single into left field and later scored on Roper's sacrifice fly to left field.
In the fourth inning, Ryan Luce led off the inning with a base hit down the third base line and after Vallette sacrificed Luce to second on a bunt, Roper smoked a two-out RBI double to right field to score Luce.
Prior to Harrisburg's at-bat, Eldorado saw a golden chance to score slip out of their grips. The Eagles had runners (Adam Collier and Brennan Unthank) on the corner with no outs, but Brennan Unthank was thrown out by Brady Mayer trying to steal second and that followed a Garrison Hathaway to Cody Hall for out No. 2 and Dakota Prather grounded out to Ryne Roper as Harrisburg came out of the inning unscathed.
Harrisburg's big inning came in the fifth when they batted around the order, putting up three runs on two hits.
Vallette ripped a single into left field to score Kealser and Sykes Thompson had a bloop single into center field to score Phipps. Roper drove in Luce with a sacrifice-fly for the game's final run.
Page 2 of 2 - Eldorado's (7-15) four hits came compliments of Tyler Deaton (1-2), Devin Aldridge (1-3), Adam Collier (1-2) and Dakota Prather (1-3).

The Virus Zero Desk & Wall Air Sterilizer uses award-winning Samsung Super Plasma Ion (SPI) Technology to sterilize rooms up to 633 square feet without the need for any replacement filters. This model is perfect for mounting onto a wall to provide clean air to large living areas without creating an eye sore. Samsung's new SPI technology is capable of:
- Eliminating allergens, fungi, bacteria, and mold
- Neutralizing active oxygen radicals
- Quickly eliminating airborne viruses
- Filterless air sterilization
Active hydrogen and oxygen ions that are generated eliminate harmful biological contaminants and active oxygen, which is scientifically linked to aging and skin diseases. The active hydrogen and oxygen ions form hydroperoxy radicals (HOO-) that react with positively charge airborne contaminants to form water vapor, rendering the contaminants harmless. OH-radicals react with active hydrogen to form water vapor too! Breathe comfortably and stay healthy.
Unlike other air purifiers that only filters air that passes through the purifier itself, the Virus Zero Air Sterilizer emits active hydrogen and oxygen ions that fill the room Extensive research has been conducted internationally to certify the effectiveness of SPi Technology. Institutions such as Kitasato Environmental Science Center, Yonsei University, Kisato Medical Center, Korea Consuming Environmental Science Center, British Allergy Foundation, Research Triangle Institute, Seoul Toxicology Laboratory, and Hiroshima University.
Ozone tests for the Virus Zero Protable Air Sterilizer have deemed this sterilizer Ozone Free. High quality cars in Asia and international hospitals are beginning to integrate SPi technology into their operations to deliver clean air to their customers and patients.

There are no published data in the medical literature regarding routine exercise in patients with PAH. However, there are considerable data available from studies evaluating the effects of exercise in patients with left heart failure. The data suggest that physical activity and a regular exercise program are helpful in maintaining muscle tone, physical (and mental) well-being, and in some cases, improving long-term survival. There are also some data suggesting that physical inactivity may be detrimental to patients with left heart failure. Because right heart failure in PAH leads to effects on the body similar to that seen with left heart failure, exercise in PAH patients may have similar benefits. However, the actual benefit of exercise in patients with PAH has not been well-studied. In general, several important points can be made about exercise in PAH:
1. Many PAH specialists agree that some form of exercise is not harmful for PAH patients, and may be helpful.
2. Patients with PAH should speak with their doctor before beginning any exercise program.
3. Patients with PAH should not over-exercise at any time. In other words, do not exercise to the point where symptoms such as light-headedness, chest pain, or severe shortness of breath develop. To determine how much exercise is reasonable, each patient should talk with his/her PH specialist to develop an individualized exercise plan.
4. Exercise such as light resistance training of small muscle groups (no heavy lifting), and light to moderate aerobic activity (walking, swimming, etc.) are the recommended forms of exercise for PAH patients.
5. Except in those PAH patients with minimal or no symptoms, it is inadvisable to exercise upper and lower limbs at the same time (for example, as with a NordicTrack machine).
6. In general, patients with severe limitation of activity and/or a history of dizziness and/or fainting during exercise should not continue with, or plan to begin, a regular exercise program.
7. A clinic or hospital-based exercise facility to perform regular exercise should be considered when starting an exercise program, but is not required.
8. Outdoor exercise should be avoided during hot or humid weather or very cold weather.
In summary, a regular exercise program is likely to be helpful for patients with PAH, and probably not harmful, provided patients discuss the type of activity with their PH specialist prior to starting any exercise program.

Unusual Visitor
One never knows who is going to show up at our doors. Imagine our surprise on Friday when a peacock made a fine entrance. Truth be told, he was out in the parking lot in danger of being hit, so he was encouraged to come into the museum for his own safekeeping.
Unfortunately, he did not stay in the gift shop. He went right on to the exhibit floor and started looking at cars. To make a very long (and extremely funny) story short, he was finally handled by the animal control people on Saturday morning - after spending the night in the women's restroom.
Many people were involved with the bird adventure. Staff members, docents, two park rangers, and a San Diego police officer all got in on the action. He was "captured" eventually by using pool cleaning equipment.
And that's the way it is on this fine Monday in the park. The adventure never ceases!
Mr. Peacock can't decide between the Sinatra taxi and the lovely woodie. Fickle bird!
