day, you are shedding the fluvirus and you don’t evenknow you are sick. That’swhy the flu starts spreadingso rapidly. You start shed-ding that virus, you’re conta-gious a day before you knowyou are sick.”

She says the best way toprevent it is to get the flu vac-cination.

Hand hygiene is extreme-ly important as well, she said.Washing hands and usinghand sanitizer on a regularbasis will help hinder thespread of the virus.

While it may be moreimportant for certain groupsof people to get the flu shot,like the elderly or those withchronic illnesses, she sayseveryone needs to get thevaccination.

It is also important forchildren to be vaccinated aswell, Reagan said.

Officials from the Centersfor Disease Control and Rea-gan say the most commonsymptoms of the flu arefever/chills, sore throat,muscle aches, fatigue, cough,headache and a runny orstuffy nose.

“We usually test for it witha swab and that’s how weknow if you have the flu ornot,” she said. “If you do havethe flu, there’s some medi-cine we can prescribe calledTamiflu to help decrease thesymptoms.”

Children are vaccinatedagainst the flu as young as sixmonths of age she said. If achild is between the age oftwo and nine, then the childwill have to be vaccinatedtwice the first time. The firstdose will be done and then asecond dose will be adminis-tered approximately fourweeks later, she said. If thechild is age nine or older,then the first time they arevaccinated only requires onedose.

“Usually we start getting

(vaccinations) in in October,”she said. “There is also a flumist, which is like a nasalspray. Children over the ageof two and don’t have a histo-ry of asthma can get thatinstead of the shot.”

Reagan explained the vac-cinations given by injectionare a dead virus while the flumist is a live virus.

If an infant contracts theflu, they can become reallysick, she said.

“The younger they are themore likely they are to have

issues with breathing, likewhen they get runny noses,”she said. “I have seen kids diefrom the flu and I highly rec-ommend everyone gets theirflu shot. Most people don’tget that bad off, but thosewhose immune system does-n’t work quite right, they canget pretty sick from the flutoo.”

The CDC says it takesabout two weeks for the pro-tection of the vaccination totake full effect and it laststhrough the flu season.

WASHINGTON – Con-gressman John Fleming,M.D. released the followingstatement after questioningEPA Administrator GinaMcCarthy:

“When it comes to clean-ing up Camp Minden, orcausing the Animas Minespill in Colorado, EPA playsby a different rulebook thanit applies to its victims. When

it came to Camp Minden,EPA waspushing foran open burnprocess thatcould put thecitizens ofN o r t h e r nLouisiana atrisk. EPArefused tocertify that that this pro-

posed process was safe, allthe while threatening finesfor burning a pile of leaves.Fortunately, the community,along with Senator Vitter andI, were able to push back andget EPA to pursue a closedburn process.

“In the case of the Ani-mas River, if a private indi-vidual had caused the minewaste spill, they would likely

be in jail. Instead, EPA‘accepts responsibility’ in thesame way the Hillary Clintonaccepts responsibility forusing a private email serverto send classified material.EPA has taken no actions tofire or reduce the pay of anyresponsible actor.

“If EPA cannot hold itselfaccountable, and the Presi-dent will not act, Congress

must act. Upon completionof this Congressional over-sight investigation, Congressshould insist upon dis-missals, severe fines andwithholding Congressionalfunding to hold accountablethose responsible.”

there's no patching. It needsa new roof," he said.

Walker did not immedi-ately respond to a call forcomment.

Apaches looking for leadersH I G H S C H O O L F O O T B A L L

BLAKE [email protected]

It hasn’t been the startGlenbrook coaches, players orfans were hoping for.

At 0-4, the Apaches arebehind the eight ball in theirquest to post a 14 straight win-ning or .500 season. It appearsthe Apaches will need a miracleto keep the streak alive, ormaybe, just some leadership.

“Tuesday we had an abso-lutely terrible practice,”Apache head coach CalebCarmikle said. “We sat the guysdown and laid it out there, thatit’s going to be a really longseason if we don’t turn itaround right now. We electedofficial team captains and allthe coaches spoke with thosecaptains about what we expectfrom them in terms of leader-ship, because that’s really whatthis team is missing right now.”

Carmikle said the teamchose seniors, Archer Moses,Garrett Sanders, Drennan Keenand Lyle Reagan as captains forthe remainder of the season,and praised the efforts of thefoursome up to this point.

“Drennan is just a differentkind of kid, Carmikle said.“He’s had a nagging injurysince the start of the season andI hate it for him. He’s someonethe kids look up to, someonewho brings it everyday in prac-tice.

Archer Moses is the vocalleader of our team both on thefield and in the locker room. Hegives all he has every day inpractice and I’m proud of theway he’s handled himself.”

Carmikle praised Sanders forleading by example on the fieldso far this season, and Reaganfor playing through injury.

“We’ve talked with them

about laying the foundation,”Carmikle said. “They’re layingout the future for our program.If you don’t build a solid foun-dation the house will crumble.”

Carmikle said the teamresponded positively, rebound-ing with the best practice of theseason on Wednesday.

“Hopefully this was a turn-ing point for us,” Carmiklesaid. “Obviously we still havea steep challenge withRiverfield. They’re huge upfront and they have a huge run-ning back. They’re just goingto hand it to him and let him dohis thing.”

It starts up front for theApaches with the runninggame. Offense has been hard tocome by for Glenbrook, andthis week’s opponent isn’t thetype of team to allow theApaches to find a rhythm,despite giving up 61 points toTrinity Episcopal last week.

“Their defensive line getsafter it,” Carmikle said. “Theylike to send linebackers up themiddle and bring six-man pres-sure. Our running backs will beextremely involved in pass pro-tection this week. In the pass-ing game, our receivers justhave to catch the football. Wehad nine drops last week, so it’stime to start making plays.”

The Apaches will be withouta pair of starters for this week’scontest, Hunter Chopin andDa’Maza Robinson.

“We’re a little banged up,”Carmikle said. “It’s just littlenick-nack issues throughout thegrind of the season. Of course ithurts you on Friday night, but ithurts us worse throughout theweek of practice. With lownumbers we need everybodyavailable for scout team reps,but on the flip side we’re ashealthy on the offensive line aswe’ve been all season.Hopefully we can see more pro-duction this week on offensebehind a healthy group ofoffensive lineman.”

The Apaches and Raiderswill kick things off at 7 p.m.from Apache Stadium.

BLAKE [email protected]

SPRINGHILL - North Websterhead coach John Ware speaks formost of the parish when he talksabout how excited he is forFriday’s Webster Parish show-down between his Knights andthe visiting Minden CrimsonTide.

“There’s no reason this gameshould have ever stopped,” Waresaid. “No doubt, it’s definitely agame the parish needs betweenthese two good football teams.We’re excited about it.”

Ware said he can’t tell if hisplayers are treating this game anydifferent than the next, noting the

preparation has been quiet andcrisp.

“We don’t get too hyped up inpractice,” Ware said. “We’ll letthat come out on Friday, but it’sobviously a big game and weunderstand the significance of it.”

The Knights will have the lux-ury of homefield advantage, aplace where North Webster hasbeen nearly unstoppable. Just askPatterson High School how hardit is to win in Springhill. TheLumberjacks watched as theKnights erased a 20-point fourthquarter deficit last year in theplayoffs, so the Tide have theirwork cut out for them.

“We’ve been on the road threeweeks in a row,” Ware said. “Idon’t know how much of anadvantage it will be. After aboutone quarter, football takes over. Itwill be a huge crowd and a greatnight for football in WebsterParish.”

Ware was very complementaryof the Minden team and coachingstaff.

“Minden is a tough team,”Ware said. “They put a lot of pres-sure on you and they’re well-coached. It’s one of those things

where you have to prepare cor-rectly and be disciplined. Ourguys have been doing a good jobof that in practice.”

Ware said the matchup thatcould have the biggest role indetermining a winner will be theMinden passing game against aNorth Webster secondary com-prised of mostly newcomers.

“They can hurt you there,”Ware said. “They do a lot of playaction stuff and put you in a lot ofdifferent formations that make ittough to line up against.”

North Webster’s offense willcounter with a heavy dose of runswith Devin White and JalenSmith, but don’t sleep on theCameron Huff to Wesley Franklinconnection that has been good forthe Knights’ passing game so farthis season.

“Their defense puts a lot ofpressure on you,” Ware said.“They attack and are always ingood position. We have to takecare of our business because I’mreally impressed with theirdefense; they get after it.”

The battle for Webster Parishbragging rights begins at 7 p.m. inSpringhill.

cleanup of the so called “redwater ponds,” after its desig-nation as a Superfund site,the damage to soil andgroundwater have greatlydiminished over the years.

The area of focus was onArea P, where the red waterponds were located, and atopographical view of theentire military base show theflow of water from surfacewater all the way down to

aquifer water. Dr. Brian Salvatore, one

of the first to blow the whis-tle on the open burn processof nearly 16 million poundsof M6 demilitarized artillerypropellant improperly storedat Camp Minden, showedconcern about the water flowin the Boone Creek area,where he felt any potentiallycontaminated groundwatermight escape. He called it a“perfect storm of worry.”

“I just think that thoughyou are not getting detec-tions there, you need tomaybe get some concentra-tors and get down as low as

you possibly can, because itseems like that is a big con-cern,” Salvatore said.

Boone Creek flows intoDorcheat, which flows intoBistineau, and groundwaterunder Camp Minden feedsBoone Creek. The major con-cern there is about surfacewater filtering into the shal-low groundwater, Salvatoresaid.

Myer answered, saying allthe tests and monitoring ofthe groundwater and soilhave come back negative forcontamination, but it willcertainly be something theycan look at.

“We can look at that, but Idon’t know if we’re going toget any different results,” hesaid. “We did the investiga-tion, we did the remediationand we’re monitoringgroundwater quality. Histor-ically, from the sampleswe’ve done, we haven’t hadany surface water detects(problems).”

Myer spent some timegoing over the geology ofCamp Minden, showing howthe contamination to theammunition plant began andhow it was cleaned up.

Essentially, the munitionscompanies, at that time, were

trucking wastewater frommanufacturing to pondswhere that water was allowedto sit, evaporate and soakinto the soil.

After the site was put onthe National Priorities List in1989, Myer says remediationbegan and the soil from thoseold ponds was dug up, treat-ed and returned to its originand “capped off” with redclay, impermeable dirt thatdoes not allow waterthrough.

Since the site cleanup inthe late 80s and early 90s,the contamination levels,according to their data, con-

tinue to diminish, but thereare still some very smallareas in Area P that still reg-ister above what scientistsdeem safe to human andenvironmental health.

Myer also spent sometime going over the processby which action is taken onenvironmental cleanups,from the time they knowabout contamination untilpost-remediation, when thearea has been returned to itsnatural state.

ernor’s bid. “Then the senateseat came open and I thoughtI’d never go back – but I did.I have thoroughly enjoyed it.It has been a real honor. Thepeople I have representedhave been wonderful andthey have been great peopleto represent.”

He says he feels much hasbeen accomplished, particu-larly in this area, with thenew technical school, thenew Webster Council onAging facility, among manyother projects in Cotton Val-ley, Springhill, Sarepta,Ringgold, all over the dis-trict. However, there was onebill that he will never forget,he says.

“I had a really goodfriend,” he said. “He was asmall business guy, and hehad two or three employeesin the oil and gas business.He got terminal cancer. Heleft the hospital and came tomy office – and I mean helooked terrible – and he wasso mad. The insurance com-pany had cancelled his insur-ance while he was lying onhis death bed.”

In Louisiana at that time,Adley recalled, health insur-ance companies could dothat.

“He said, ‘You have tochange this,’” he said. “He

died, and in his name I cameto Baton Rouge and passed itoff the House floor, and itwasn’t any problem.”

It hit the Senate commit-tee and it was killed.

“I was sitting at the wit-ness table, and I said, ‘No,you’re not through,’” herecalled. “’I’m not going toget up from this table untilyou pass this bill.’”

He says they threatenedto call security and theauthorities to physicallyremove him from the room,and he told them he’d“scream and holler” aboutwhat the Senate committeehad done until the entirestate had heard it. The chair-man adjourned the meetingand asked if Adley wouldmeet with them in sidechambers about what theycould do. A few adjustmentswere made and the bill soonafter became law.

He talked about the billthat taught him the most, hesays. It was a two-year fightover regulations regardinghorse racing. Every racetrack in Louisiana had a cer-tain amount of race days andLouisiana Downs had less, hesays. He introduced a bill tocorrect that issue and it metvehement opposition.

“I didn’t think it was goingto be a problem, but it turnedout to be a gosh-awful fight,”he said.

Adley says he has servedunder every governor sinceDave Treen, including the

governor he lost his bidagainst, Mike Foster.

“I’ve met tons of wonder-ful people all over the stateand all over the world,” hesaid. “The difficult part, thepart that I hate the most, isthat if you’re not somewhatwealthy, you just can’t affordto serve. And I hate that. Iwish there was some waythat the average guy could godown there and experiencethat.”

Beginning in the oil andgas field in his 20s, he’s spenthis entire business career inthe industry, and has made adecent living, he said. Oncehe retires, he says he willprobably remain in theindustry, although not quiteas heavily.

“Since the last session hasended, outside of the oil andgas consulting, we’re on theverge of full retirement, andI’m trying to get used tothat,” he said. “You have tostay involved, and in ourcase, we have a lot investedin Louisiana – and I don’tmean money, I mean timeand effort and love.”

He’s been married to hiswife, Claudia, for 25 years,and he has one son, Dr.Brandon Adley, DVM, andone grandchild. He reiterat-ed that he is everythingLouisiana and he will now beable to spend more timerooting for his favorite hometeam, the LSU Tigers.

On his last day on theSenate floor, he was giving

his closing speech, and hesaid in part, “I heard apreacher say when you havean extramarital affair, youought to admit it and admit itpublicly, so today on this

floor in the Senate – with mywife sitting in the back of thechamber – I said, ‘I’m goingto admit to you that I’ve hadan extramarital affair, and letme tell you her name. Her

name is Louisiana. I just fell

in love with her, and I always

have been in love with

Louisiana.”

The museum's exhibitsinclude a strongbox andflashlight taken from Bar-row's car, newspaper articlesabout Bonnie and Clyde, bul-

lets from other sites theyrobbed, and a 1934 Ford V-8with decals to represent bul-let holes.

Barrow's car, the shirt hewas wearing and other mem-orabilia are at Whiskey Pete'sCasino in Primm, Nevada;the casino paid $85,000 justfor the shirt.

A Minden resident hadlent the museum a shotgun

"taken out of the death car,"but has reclaimed it becauseof the roof problems, Carversaid. "He said once we've goteverything squared up, he'llbring it back."

The building also houses afood bank.

Carver said Walkeroffered to sell the part thatholds the museum for$40,000 and put another

$10,000 into roof repairs."It's one roof that covers it

all. The whole roof needs tobe re-covered," Carver said.He estimated that a new roofwould cost $18,000 to$20,000.

He said he has offered tobuy the whole building for$20,000 and put the sameamount into a new roof.

"Then I'm committed to

Gibsland for $40,000. That'sa lot of money to invest in atown that has nothing butthe museum," he said.

If he had a suitable build-ing, he said, he'd like to addtwo businesses: Bonnie'sBoutique and Bonnie andClyde's Sandwich Shop.

"I'm at my wits end," hesaid. "I left six kids, my momand grandkids in Atlanta to

come over and do this. I did-n't come here for thisheadache. I will pack it upand move back to Atlanta."

"It's not what I want todo," he added. But he saidhe's had two heart attacksand is currently on medica-tion for anxiety.

"I've stopped orderingeverything, my souvenirsand everything," he said.
