Solar Eclipse over the United States
Written by Dr. Tony Phillips
Science at NASA
Washington, D.C. – Mark your calendar. On Sunday, May 20th, the sun is going to turn into a ring of fire. It’s an annular solar eclipse–the first one in the United States in almost 18 years.
An annular eclipse occurs when the Moon passes directly in front of the sun, but the lunar disk is not quite wide enough to cover the entire star. At maximum, the Moon forms a “black hole” in the center of the sun.
The path of annularity cuts across the continental United States at sunset on May 20th, 2012.

Clarksville Mayor Kim McMillan assures Airport Authority money will be paid to complete project
Hank Bonecutter
Clarksville, TN – Clarksville Mayor Kim McMillan met with Airport Authority board member Dr. Ron Whitford today to settle financial questions related to the new airport terminal project. Claims and counter claims have been made in recent weeks concerning the project, with some board members accusing the City of Clarksville of “malfeasance.”
Issues arose when the city did not make payments allocated for the new terminal, that were tied to federal grants provided for the project. Accusations were running rampant that there was “over charges” tied to change orders that were not a part of the project, something that board members vehemently denied. “Our books are open for anyone to see.” said Jerry Clark, the project manager. “Any change orders related to this project were well within the acceptable limits of any project of this nature, and the implication that there has been mismanagement is absurd.” Clark said.
