HURRICANE – Reliant DrugTest Solutions of Hurricane willbe offering free drug testing toall parents in the area on Satur-day, Sept. 15, from 10 a.m. to 6p.m.

The tests will be done at Re-liant's office, which is located at3400 Teays Valley Road in Hurri-cane, and will screen for up to10 drugs and drug classes.

Steve Patrick, owner andpresident of Reliant Drug TestSolutions, said that this is thefirst time that his company hasoffered this free service.

“Drug abuse has become epi-demic in our region,” Patricksaid. “More and more childrenare using illegal drugs andabusing prescription drugsthan ever before; and startingyounger and younger.”

Patrick said that the averageage that kids start abusingdrugs is now 12, although hehas seen even younger kidsbrought to his office for testing.

“Kids are into more thingsthan you know,” Patrick said,“and sadly, the parents are usu-ally the last to know.”

Patrick said that on a regularbasis he has had parents bringstheir kids in for testing and arecompletely blindsided when

the results come back positive.“You don't have to go too far

to find people that have beenpersonally affected by drug use,either by someone in their fam-ily, or by someone they know,”he said.

Patrick said that the most im-portant thing that parents cando is talk to their children aboutdrug use and let them know itsdangers and consequences. Hesaid that offering the free drugtesting services is one way thatparents can begin than conver-sation with their children.

“Don't be afraid you willupset your teen,” he said. “Yourjob is to protect them. Showthem that you care for their

health and safety and find outfor sure. If nothing else, this willget you and your child talkingabout drugs and their dangers.”

The drug test being offered isa urine test. The results will beavailable in about 10 minutes,Patrick said. Normally the testwould cost $50.

The results are confidentialand will be given only to theparents, he emphasized.

“The results will only be givento the parents,” he said. “Thenthe parents can do what theywant with the results.”

While the testing is free, Re-liant is asking that parents callahead and schedule an ap-pointment time to come in for

the testing. The number of testsgiven on Sept. 15 will be limitedto the available stock Relianthas on hand, which is anotherreason to call ahead, Patricksaid.

For more information, or toschedule an appointment time,call Reliant Drug Test Solutionsat 304-397-6551.

Patrick said that while this isthe first time his company hasoffered this service, if it is wellreceived, he will offer it again inthe future.

“If we get a good response, wewill offer it again in the future,”he said. “Reliant Drug Test Solu-tions is committed to helpingour children stay drug free.”

TRIBUTE FROM PAGE 1

Hero. That word - hero-getsused an awful lot in Americatoday. People talk about sportsheroes and movie heroes andcomic book heroes. It's used somuch it sometimes loses itsmeaning.

WestVirginia lost two great he-roes last week: Corporal MarshallBailey and Trooper Eric Work-man. These two men had dedi-cated their lives to keeping ussafe. They got up every day-and awhole lot of nights-and put onthe reassuring green uniform ofthe West Virginia State Police.Every day, they stood on the linethat separated good from evil,and risked everything to makesure the evil couldn't hurt thegood. These two men sacrificedtheir own safety to protect therest of us. That's what I call ahero.

They both did it willingly. They

could have picked an easy job, asafe job, a job behind a desk. In-stead, they picked the hardestjob. They choose a career withlong nights on the road, calls atall hours, and danger aroundevery corner, always a split sec-ond away. They lived and workedwith the knowledge that any call,any stop, could be the one thatwent wrong.

Why did they do it? All I can sayis that police work is more than ajob. It's a calling. There are cer-tain people, special individuals,who have something inside ofthem that the rest of us don't.They have a drive to serve, a pas-sion to protect, and a belief insacrifice. They don't do it for themoney, and they don't do it be-cause it's comfortable-they do itbecause they are called. I callthose people heroes, and Corpo-ral Bailey and Trooper Workman

were heroes.What happened in Clay

County was absolutely terrible.It's still hard to understand; therejust aren't any words for atragedy like this. Corporal Baileyleft behind three children, andTrooper Workman was just be-ginning his life. I can't imaginethe pain their families are experi-encing right now. As I told themearlier this week, I hope they areable to find comfort knowingboth men are in a better place.And, they couldn't have gone ina more honorable way.

Joanne and I continue to keepthese folks in our prayers, andask you to do the same. May Godwrap his arms around the fami-lies of the two great heroes, andmay God bless the law enforce-ment officers across our statewho work each and every day tomake sure we are safe.

foreWorldWar I, it became a link ina great transcontinental road.When numbered highways wereintroduced, it was designated U.S.60. Today, there’s history waitingaround every bend of its 180miles.”

“Most of today’s motorists,” hesaid, “prefer to stick to the easier,far quicker driving offered by In-terstate 64. But those travelers whoare willing to take their time andinstead drive the two-lane black-top of the Midland Trail can get aglimpse into history that’s deniedthose who hurry along the super-highway.”

Surely the best way to learnabout the Midland Trail is to jumpin the family car and set off on apersonal exploration, Casto said,but the next best thing is to takethe armchair tour offered in“High-way to History,” with its 200-plusphotos and illustrations.

The author of a number ofbooks on local and regional his-tory, Casto was a reporter and edi-

tor at The Herald-Dispatch inHuntington for more than 40 yearsbefore he retired.

In 2004, Marshall University pre-sented him with its John MarshallMedal of Civic Responsibility inrecognition of his services to theuniversity and the community.

In 2005, the City of HuntingtonFoundation inducted him as amember of its Greater HuntingtonWall of Fame.

In 2006, the Cabell County Pub-lic Library named the James E.

Organ CaveLast June a group of us from Church went to visit Organ Cave near

Ronceverte West Virginia.I had not been there before and thought it would be interesting,

and it was.Organ Cave stays about 52 degrees all year long. (I guess we could

have made a high dive for the cave when the electricity was off).Organ Cave is the longest cave on the East Coast. The tour takes

about an hour and a half with stops to observe the different things inthe cave. The tour is about 2 miles long.

Organ Cave is the most historic cave in the United States. All toursare based on creation and the King James Version of the Bible, whichmakes the tour more interesting than most tours of caves.

Creationists believe the cave was created by the flood in the Bible.(I believe in creation).

Founded in 1704 the cave was used as refrigeration and for stor-age. The cave was used in the RevolutionaryWar, theWar of 1812 andthe Civil War. Robert E. Lee used the cave as a storage place for am-munition.

The cave was used for about 1100 confederate soldiers and wasused as a church as well as other purposes during the war.

Many students come to learn from the cave more about biology,science and archaeology as well as other studies.

For those of you who like history, Organ Cave is the place to visit.West Virginia has so many nice places to visit. Check out the web-

site at www.organcave.com.I have mentioned only a few of the nice things about Organ Cave,

HUNTINGTON – Dr. Jason A.Hudak, a three-time Marshall Uni-versity graduate, has been selectedas a recipient of the 2012 PfizerTeacher Development Award. Theprestigious honor is given to only13 physicians nationwide by theAmerican Academy of FamilyPhysicians (AAFP) Foundation.

The Pfizer award is presented tocommunity-based, new physi-cians who combine their clinicalpractice with part-time teaching offamily medicine. Hudak has a pri-vate practice in Barboursville andserves as volunteer clinical facultymember with the Joan C. EdwardsSchool of Medicine.

“I was really surprised to receivethis award,” Hudak said. “As a newvolunteer faculty member, I waslearning to teach just as much asthe students were learning tolearn. It’s been an unexpectedblessing.”

Hudak graduated from Marshallwith his undergraduate degree in2001 and then with his medicaldegree in 2005. He completed aresidency in Family Medicine in2007.

Hudak was nominated by col-leagues in the Marshall Depart-ment of Family and CommunityHealth, including Dr. MitchShaver, who is residency directorfor the department.

“We are so proud of Dr. Hudak,”Shaver said. “A professional de-meanor was one of many out-standing attributes Dr. Hudakexhibited during his residency andI think a reason why students re-ally enjoy their rotation in FamilyMedicine with him – he portrayssuch a great example.”

“The Old Entertainers”

Thought for the week: But thou shalt remember the Lord thy God,for it is He that giveth thee power to get wealth, thatHemay establishHis covenant which He sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.Deuteronomy 8:18 (KJV)

Recently I attended a country music concert featuring performerswho were at one time top country music recording artists. These pro-fessional singers and song-writers are still popular today among somefans. For years they were at the top of the charts, but with advancedage came a decline in voice quality, appearance, and thus size of au-dience.

However, they can still draw a crowd.I listened and observed, wondering, what kind of life they truly

lived... Usually, there have been several wives, many children, withan abundance of fame and fortune. Have they ever had time for LIV-ING? While traveling on the road, performing from city to city con-stantly giving all their energy to the public’s enjoyment

GOD blessed them with the health, talent, and the stamina to dothis. Did they use their wealth and their time as they really wanted, orwere they just caught up in this world and the fleeting moments ofpopularity?

Now age has consumed the lifestyle they once had. Do they lookback and think what life might have been, had they chosen anotherpath? How much of this fame and recognition was returned to thecreator? Only they know themselves and GOD.

Take a moment and examine your own life, have I accomplisheddoing the things I wanted in life?

So many times we say to ourselves someday I am going to do this orthat, better not put it off. Tomorrow may not come - do it today. Godintended for us to enjoy this gift of life.

He makes no mistakes. .Prayer: Thank youGod, for life itself. Help usmake good decisions

that glorify you,Father, lest we forget who created us and gave us thechoice to do as we wish. Amen.

DNR: Hunters likely to seefewer squirrels this year

West Virginia Division of Natu-ral Resources officials say squir-rel hunters likely won't find asmany bushytails as they encoun-tered during the 2011 season.

The squirrel harvest for anygiven year depends largely on theamount of food available tosquirrels in the preceding year.Paul Johansen, DNR assistantwildlife chief, said that a bumpercrop of acorns and other nuts in2010 made for an abundance ofsquirrels last year. Last year'smast crop was down, leading toless squirrel reproduction andwinter survival. He said whilethere will still be plenty of squir-rels, they won't be as numerousas last year.

This year's season began Sept.8 – a month earlier than usual.This is the second straight year ofthe early season.National Hunting and Fishing

Victory in Idaho fisheryTrout Unlimited recently

hailed a decision by the IdahoDepartment of Water Resourcesto deny a water permit for a pro-posed dam on the Oneida Nar-rows – a popular trout fishery onthe Bear River in the southeast-ern portion of the state.

The IDWR denied an applica-tion by the Twin Lakes Canal Co.for a 17,300 acre feet water right,which would have been used tostore water behind a proposed108-foot high dam on the OneidaNarrows section of the BearRiver, a rugged whitewatercanyon that is beloved by gener-ations of anglers, kayakers,

campers, and other outdoor en-thusiasts.

"This is a major victory for apriceless native trout fishery, aswell as for local anglers and otherrecreation users who cherish thisbeautiful place," said WarrenColyer, director of TU's water-sheds restoration program.West Virginia Hunter-Safety

For the last 10 years or so, I'vebeen following theWVangler.comforum – an Internet forum forWestVirginia anglers. As far as In-ternet forums go, it's a bit un-usual because you can actuallygo fishing with some of theseguys because the vast majority ofthem are West Virginians.

There was one West Virginiaangler that first showed up on theforum five years ago. Like me, hewas an Elk River boy. He first an-nounced himself thusly “this isme:” followed by a picture of

himself with a monster musky.His name was Eric Workman.

He was a West Virginia StateTrooper. He was only 26 when hedied.

Eric and Cpl. Marshall Lee Bai-ley were answering a call aboutan erratic driver in Clay Countyand pulled over Luke Baber. Theyarrested him and put him in theback of their cruiser.

When they frisked him, theymissed the handgun Baber hadhidden. While the officers werewaiting on a tow truck, Baber,who was handcuffed, pulled outthe pistol and shot both troopers.Both died.

Roane County deputiestracked down Baber and killedhim in a shootout.

West Virginia is now mourningboth Bailey – a Putnam Countynative - and Eric. Not only did welose two of our finest troopers inthose two, West Virginia lost oneof its best musky anglers in Eric.

Most of what I know about Ericis from his years on the forumand from friends who have fishedwith him. He spent every minutehe could on the water and Idoubt few people knew the lowerElk River and its muskies – as wellas many of the state's other

musky fisheries – as well as EricWorkman. When it came to fish-ing, reading water and casting –he was a master of nuance.

He had a great deal of respectfor the fish he caught and re-leased all of his muskies.While hefished, he also collected data forthe DNR that helped biologistsbetter understand fish popula-tion growth and how fish move.He even had a scanning devicefrom the DNR that allowed himto scan vital information fromcomputer chips implanted infish.

He worked hard. He workedlong hours, but he also fishedhard. Eric didn't say a lot on theforum. At least in that public set-ting, he was a man of few words.But, if a picture is worth 10,000words, he was a man of millionsof words. He posted photographafter photo after photo of all theunbelievable muskies he hadcaught. When I say he was one ofWest Virginia's best musky an-glers, I am not exaggerating. Hewas well-liked and had manyfriends – all of whom respectedhis fishing prowess and consid-ered him an incredible humanbeing.

“Make time for those you care

about,” said Scott Smith of Hurri-cane, one of Eric's fishing bud-dies. “You never know when yourtime or theirs is up. Eric and Iwere texting the day he was shotabout fishing this past weekend.I will always treasure that text.Last one I got from him said 'theElk looks great.'”

When I heard that Eric haddied, I assumed that would bethe last I would ever hear fromEric Workman. But I was verywrong.

One of my wife's friends hasbeen on a waiting list for a newkidney for years and was in in-credibly poor health, with kidneyfunction down to 30 percent. Mywife thought enough of him tohave herself tested to see if shewas a match. She would havegiven him one of her kidneys ifshe could, but she wasn't amatch.

He would still be waiting on alife-saving kidney transplanttoday if it weren't for one fact –Eric Workman was an organdonor.

The call came. After all theseyears, a kidney was finally avail-able. He came to Charleston anddoctors put a new kidney in him.At first, the nurses couldn't tell

him from whom this life-savingkidney came and could only sayit was from someone “very spe-cial.”

Even though state trooper afterstate trooper came in to check onhow he was doing, it took him awhile to figure out where the kid-ney came from, but eventually hedid and eventually the family didagree to let him be officially noti-fied that he now had Eric's kid-ney. A woman, whose kidneyfunction had been down to amere 10 percent, got Eric's otherkidney. Somebody got his heart,although I don't know who. Doc-tors can transplant bones, skin,organs, corneas – a single organdonation can help or save thelives of as many as 50 people. Ericwas a young and healthy man,with young and healthy organs.

A part of him will always live onin the Elk River he loved so much.Other parts of him live on in thebodies of others. He gave his lifeto keep West Virginians safe.

Even in death, he is still savinglives.

We should never forget EricWorkman.Contact David Payne Sr. at

memorate the adoption of theUnited States Constitution andthe contributions of Chief JusticeJohn Marshall, for whom the uni-versity is named. ConstitutionWeek activities are sponsored bythe John Deaver Drinko Acad-emy.

Gould said Constitution Weekwas started by United States Sen-ator Robert C. Byrd in order todraw attention to the importantdocument that our system ofgovernment is based upon.

morial closed its doors and al-though Rose Terrace is not re-placing Morris Memorial, itbegins its own era - providingresidents with a loving atmos-phere where they can be wellcared for by a caring, welltrained staff.

As with all of us, each andevery resident at Rose Terracecomes with their own story –their history. These stories livethrough their children andgrandchildren. It is the threadthat ties a family together. Andit is these stories, shared fromresident to resident, thatmakes up the Rose Terrace‘family’.

One such story is of FloraBelle Bias, Rose Terrace’s veryfirst resident.

When Rose Terrace Healthand Rehabilitation Center wastrying to name their long termcare unit – they decided to holda contest. Staff members wereencouraged to submit theirrecommendations and thenresidents and staff voted on thewinning entry.

The winning entry was sub-mitted by Certified Nursing As-sistant Jessica McDougal, whofound special meaning in con-necting the name of the unit

with the facility’s very first res-ident, Mrs. Flora Belle Bias.

As many folks in Milton andthe surrounding area know, theBias family worked with othersto start up the Milton Fire De-partment. The Bias family do-nated the property that housedthe Milton fire station when itwas on South Main Street andFlora Belles’ husband, DickBias, was an active Fire Chief.(A lot of people will also re-member that Dick Bias’ gas sta-tion was a fixture on SouthMain for many years).

A phone was placed in theBias home along with an emer-gency switch that would sendout a “whistle” to call in avail-able volunteer fire fighters.When a fire call came in, FloraBelle would take down the in-formation and sound the whis-tle. As the fire fighters came tothe station, Flora Belle wouldstand on the front porch andyell out the fire’s location.

One time, after receivingsuch a call in the middle of thenight, Flora Belle flipped theswitch to sound the whistle

and then forgot to turn theswitch off.

Many in the town of Miltonawoke as the whistle blew overa period of several minutes.People came running from allover town to the fire station tosee what was going on. At firstfolks thought the system hadmalfunctioned, but they soonlearned that Flora Belle hadjust simply forgotten to turnthe whistle off. It was from thatpoint on that Flora’s nicknamewas “Whistle”.

After hearing the story, Jes-

sica McDougal came up withthe idea of naming the longterm unit “Whistle Lane”. Jes-sica, as well as many others atRose Terrace, has gotten veryclose to Mrs. Flora Belle Biasa.k.a. “Whistle”.

(Operated by Tennessee-based Diversicare Manage-ment Services, which operatedMorris Memorial, Rose Terraceoffers post acute care, rehabili-tation services as well as amemory care unit for patientswith Alzheimer's disease orother types of dementia).
