Suicide? No Way – Part 4

(Publisher’s Note: This is the fourth in a series of articles that examine the passing of 19-year-old Colby Brown, a 2018 graduate of Cameron High School, who attended Marshall University in Huntington. Colby was pronounced dead on Aug. 26, 2019, once paramedics treated him in the middle of Interstate 64. This chapter includes the text of the report from the hired private investigator. The headings in parenthesis are not in the report but included to divide the many topics in the document.)

Introduction

It’s Case #19-4532. First-day sophomore. Gym, two scheduled classes, Madden football, surrounded by friends passing a bowl of weed at Jon Crow’s house. Jovial yet competitive. Then suddenly silent? Then an abrupt departure after a bathroom visit? A closed Interstate 64 eastbound at the 10-mile marker. Huntington. Marshall University. EMS, West Virginia State Police. Found on a freeway. Fractured spine, pelvis, tibias, and femurs. Kaitlyn Arms. Prayers. His last breath. Aug. 26, 2019.

Colby Brown

“I really don’t know why that’s what I’ve run up against, but I just can’t seem to get any answers to the questions I’ve been asking,” said Gwen Wood, Colby’s mother. “I just don’t think they have really looked into anything other than what they think, and that is that Colby jumped off that bridge. “But even though I’m not getting much cooperation from the law enforcement personnel that responded to the scene, there have been a couple of moms reach out to me trying to help. One of them drove around looking for cameras that may have had a better view than what we’ve seen,” she said. “I just hope the investigators know that I’m not going anywhere until my legitimate questions are answered. Those people are paid with tax dollars, and not only do I pay my taxes, but we’re talking about my son.”

Gwen captured this image from a news station reporting on her son's death.

Report of Investigation

Date of Report: October 23, 2019 Report by: John P. Casey, Investigator In Re: Colby Brown – Date of Death August 26, 2019 Action Taken On Sept. 11, 2019, the undersigned met with Gwen Wood and Amy Hill regarding the opening of the investigation into the circumstances leading to the death of Wood’s son. The facts known at this point are that Colby Brown, a 19-year-old Marshall University sophomore, fell to his death at approximately 7 p.m., Aug. 26, 2019, after leaving the residence of a friend, John Crow. The decedent fell approximately 90 plus feet from the McCoy Road Bridge, Huntington, W.Va., onto the eastbound lane of I-64. Cpl. Whittington and Sgt. Joyce of the W.Va. State Police are reported to be the investigative agents assigned. The manner of death has been stated currently as a suicide.

(Witnesses)

Certain individuals were identified as potential witnesses to events and communications leading up to the final episode. They are as follows: Avery Darrow – Ms. Darrow reportedly was in communication with the decedent in the days prior to and on the day of the event.Darby Brown – Ms. Brown is the decedent’s sister and was in communication with him on the day of the event.Jonathan Crow – Mr. Crow was a friend of the decedent and was reportedly with him on the date in question and witnessed his behavior shortly before the decedent left the residence.Kaitlyn Arms – Ms. Arms witnessed the decedent falling from the bridge; she was with him at the scene until EMS arrived.Ryan Clutter – Mr. Clutter was a close friend of the decedent and his roommate and had communication with him on the day of the event.Colby Clutter – Mr. Clutter is the twin brother of Ryan, a friend of the decedent and had contact with him on the day prior to the event.Parker D’Antonio – Mr. D’Antonio was a roommate of the decedent and lives in the house with the Clutters.Nolan Pierce – Mr. Pierce was a friend of the decedent and a frequent workout partner.Rhys Rodgers – Mr. Rodgers is a roommate of Jonathan Crow and was present at the Crow residence on the date in question.Aden Yates – Mr. Yates is a roommate of Crow and was present at the residence on the date in question.Corey Purdue – Mr. Purdue is Crow's roommate and was present at the residence on the date in question.Tyler Roush – Mr. Roush was a friend of the decedent and allegedly was present at Crow’s residence on the date in question.John Gripe – Mr. Gripe is a friend of Tyler Roush and allegedly was present at Crow’s residence on the date of the event. Discussed also at this meeting was the possibility of unlocking Brown’s phone and computer as well as examining the phones and social media devices of those certain identified individuals to determine their location as well as any possible relevant information. Paul White, a cyber-security and computer specialist, was contacted to perform these tasks. On 9/11/19, the undersigned, Paul White, and Romayne Casey met with Darby Brown at the undersigned’s office. White downloaded certain communications from her phone relative to this matter. Ms. Brown also discussed her brother’s background in some detail; indicating that was generally happy, healthy and satisfied with his life, relationships, and educational pursuits. She also described him as a moderate user of marijuana and that he had discussed using hallucinogens such as “mushrooms.” She was unaware of any conflict he was having with anyone and was certain that he would never consider suicide for any reason. She knew of no enemies that he had.

Colby’s goal was to be the best uncle he could be to his nephew, Malcolm.

(Wheeling Visit)

On 9/13/19 the undersigned, White, and Casey traveled to Wheeling, WV, and met Avery Darrow. Ms. Darrow was interviewed and consented to the retrieval of certain communications from her telephone. Ms. Darrow indicated that she had known Colby Brown from school but had not personally seen him for quite a while; she had recently begun communicating with him via Snapchat and was planning a visit to see him at Marshall University the weekend of the 26th, August. She denied that they had begun dating and said they were only communicating via phone. She recalled the day in question, indicating that she had been on Snapchat with him and that he had ceased communication with her at approximately 5:00 p.m. She recalled seeing his picture (the top of his head) during the last communication; she felt that something strange was going on with him but did not know what it was. She attempted to continue her communication with him, but he did not answer. She did not know where he was during her last communique. She recalled Brown expressed that he was “looking forward” to seeing her for the weekend. And that he seemed generally happy. She recalled past conversations where he told her that he would like to try cocaine and mushrooms; she was aware that he smoked marijuana and drank but did not know how much he used.

From the ground to the top of the bridge measures 109 feet.

(Camera Search)

On 9/14/19 the undersigned and Romayne Casey traveled to Huntington, WV, and met with Matthew Christus, Goldy Auto Dealership. By pre-arrangement, Christus had obtained and copied video camera footage from the lot security cameras; the videos were examined on the date in question: it revealed nothing in terms of observing activity on the McCoy Road Bridge; the bridge is within the view, but it is situated at too great a distance to observe any detail; the footage does establish a probable time of the fall, in that I-64 eastbound traffic is observed ceasing movement at approximately 6:59 p.m. A copy of this footage is made part of this report. On this date, an extensive search was made for surveillance cameras of the residences along the path most likely taken by Brown on the date in question, and as well as the neighborhood around Crow’s residence. No cameras are found at all in proximity to Crow; there were numerous sightings of cameras along the route going up the mountain. All were confirmed to either be non-working or “decoy” cameras, and thus non-operational. A visit to the Amazon facility near Goldy Auto revealed a security camera pointed in the general direction of the scene that was observed. A subsequent meeting with the security officer on duty led to the undersigned being able to observe the camera angle. It barely shows the bridge area, but not enough detail for probable determination of critical detail. The undersigned was advised to return when the facility supervisor was present to obtain the authority to copy any video from the date in question. (This was subsequently done. The undersigned was informed that only Law Enforcement was authorized to access their system – a message was passed to Sgt. Joyce WVSP – he agreed to look at the footage and obtain what of it was relevant. A subsequent conversation with Cpl. Whittington revealed that they had looked at the footage and that it did not reveal anything of relevant value.)

At the time he passed, Colby was 6-2 and 150 pounds.

(Three Week Status Report)

On 9/16/19 the undersigned traveled to Huntington Detachment WV State Police and met with Sgt. John Joyce, and discussed the status of the investigation. Sgt. Joyce freely discussed his file but was unable to release any portion of it until the final review process is complete. He was still awaiting the results of the ME (Medical Examiner) Toxicology study, as well as the forensic examination of Brown’s phone. He indicated that often those tests can take months to complete due to the backlog and priority of cases. He very clearly indicated that the matter was not a homicide stating that there was no single bit of evidence to remotely suggest it. He also indicated that they had not ruled the matter a suicide either due to the extensive history developed about Brown’s life. They had found nothing to suggest even remotely that he was a suicide risk. They were heavily focusing on drug interaction and possible hallucinogenic drugs as an explanation. He indicated that the ME office had made the determination to be suicide. He indicated that they had independently investigated and interviewed all witnessed who attended the gathering at John Crow’s house during the hours prior to Brown’s death and could find no element of deception that would conclude that any foul play was a part of the incident. They were able to conclude that all participants smoked a quantity of marijuana. They were also aware that Brown and Crow had used mushrooms a few days prior to the event. The undersigned advised Sgt. Joyce, that John Crow has delivered a quantity of marijuana to Gwen Wood on the date of the funeral visitation, and that Ms. Wood had secured it in a house that she owned; and that she was uncertain about how to dispose of it. Crow had advised her that the marijuana belonged to Brown and that it was the same that they had been smoking on the day of the incident. Sgt. Joyce arranged for a trooper at the Moundsville detachment to meet with Ms. Wood and take custody of the marijuana and submit it to the forensics lab for testing. Joyce was advised about the Amazon camera; he indicated that he would visit them and attempt to obtain relevant footage.

The initial report conducted by law enforcement indicated that Colby Brown had taken his own life.

(Last Breath)

Subsequent to this the undersigned met with Kaitlyn Arms and spoke with her about the incident. She described seeing Brown’s body fall as she traveled east on I-64. She immediately stopped and went to him. She recalled hearing him breathing for a brief time after she got to his side. She prayed with him until he stopped breathing. She recalled the time as being approximately 7:02 p.m. She stayed at the scene until after speaking with EMS and Police.

Penny was living with his best friend, Colby, at the time the tragedy took place in Huntington.

(Always Happy)

On 10/17/19 the undersigned traveled to Huntington, WV. An attempt was made to meet with Sgt. Joyce and Cpl. Whittington. Neither was working. Messages were left for them to contact me. The undersigned contacted John Crow at his residence. Mr. Crow freely agreed to speak about the episode and his relationship with Brown. Crow indicated that he and Brown were extremely close and spent a great deal of time together off-campus. He also admitted that they used drugs together on a frequent basis. He stated that they often smoked marijuana and had recently used mushrooms – the Thursday prior to the date in question. Crow confirmed that Brown was extremely happy and popular with everyone who knew him. He never observed him in a depressed state, and he never mentioned any problems with Crow. On the day in question, he recalled Brown coming to his house to play video games (Madden) and party. Brown was in good spirits when he arrived at approximately 4:45 to 5:00 p.m.; he recalled that Brown was at the house for approximately 2 hours and that he had smoked marijuana that Brown had brought with him. Shortly before Brown left the house (Crow recalled that it was sometime around 6:45 or so), he recalled Brown seemed to be extremely disoriented and stated “that he did not feel like himself, and wasn’t feeling good”; he recalled that he was unsteady on his feet, and abruptly went downstairs to the bathroom, and was seen leaving by Aden Yates. Crow recalled that Yates, Rhys Rogers, and Corey Purdue were all playing with them and that everyone was having an enjoyable time. He also recalled that Brown had been on Snapchat with Avery Darrow while he was at the house, and at one point turned his phone off so that he could party and play Madden with them. No one knew where Brown was going, and that he left abruptly. He described his change in demeanor to be very strange, and certainly not the person that Brown was ordinarily.

Colby played a lot of sports, but was very proud to be the Dragon’s quarterback.

(Abrupt Departure)

Yates had indicated that he had seen him leave, that he had come from the bathroom and was either sweating or had splashed water on his face, due to observing that his shirt had moisture around the collar area. They checked the bathroom to see if he had thrown up but did not observe anything. He indicated that he then started calling friends to see if they had seen or heard from Brown because they were concerned that he may be ill. At some point Rhys Rogers heard sirens and observed EMS vehicles going up 8th Street; initially no one connected this to Brown leaving. Shortly afterward Crow and the rest got into vehicles and began to search the nearby vicinity to see if they could observe Brown or his vehicle; they also continued efforts to contact friends to inquire if anyone had heard from him. At approximately 10 p.m., Crow and his group observed some Huntington Police Officers at the Speedway Gas Station on 8th Street. They stopped and asked the officers if they had seen Brown (showing them a photo of him); the officers replied that they had just left the scene of a fatal accident on the interstate and that the victim was Brown. Rhys Rogers, Aden Yates, and Corey Purdue were also interviewed separately as well as jointly; they all stated the same information as Crow. There was no appearance of deception noted during any of these contacts, and that all information previously known was not in contradiction to what they had told the State Police or any others. All parties were extremely cooperative and freely answered without any hesitation.

Colby’s mother, Gwen Wood, was very proud of her OVAC All-Star son and her grandchild, Malcolm.

(Crow Complaint)

Before leaving the undersigned spoke with Crow privately about the delivery of marijuana to Gwen Wood. He admitted doing it and explained that he was returning all of Brown’s property that was at his house, including the marijuana. He indicated that he had recently been contacted by Cpl. Whittington about the matter, and that he had fully disclosed the same to him. Crow also showed some texts that he had received from one of the Browns family members, that he felt were offensive; consisting of repeated texts to him to tell the truth (implying that he was lying about the circumstances surrounding the event). He informed the state police of the nature of them, and indicated that he loved Brown, and was insulted at the prospect that he would ever hold back the truth from anyone. He stated that he was not feeling harassed for no reason. Crow indicated a willingness to speak with the undersigned for any reason in the future. Subsequent to this, the undersigned met with Ryan Clutter at his residence at 17th Street. No one else was at home. Ryan Clutter confirmed that Brown was at all times cheerful and loved by all who knew him, and by all appearances was having a great time at college. Clutter indicated that he had known Brown from childhood, and that in addition to being an athlete, he was always the same, never depressed about anything. He stated they all got along well at the house and that there were never any disagreements. He also confirmed that Brown frequently smoked marijuana and had heard that he even used mushrooms with Jon Crow on the days previous to his death. Clutter indicated that he last saw Brown on the day in question at around 4:30 p.m. as he was leaving to go to Crow’s house. He said at the time, Brown appeared to be in a normal mood and not high. He recalled later receiving calls about whether he knew where Brown was and subsequently joined others in searching for him throughout the evening. He recalled meeting with others at the service station later in the night and discovering from the police that Brown had been killed. Clutter could posit no reason for what had occurred to Brown; he felt strongly that everyone was a friend to Brown and could not imagine that anyone would want to injure him. He had spoken with Crow multiple times about the matter; and about Crow’s recent experience of being told that he was “hiding” or not forthcoming with information: Clutter felt that this was unfair, that no one, including Crow, was holding any information back.

Colby and his nephew Malcolm spent a lot of time together because, as his sister Shelby insists, family was the young man’s top priority.

(The Boys)

On 10/20/19 and per client request the undersigned, Paul White, and Romayne Casey traveled to Huntington to meet with Crow, Rogers, Yates, Perdue, Ryan Clutter, Cole Clutter, Parker D’Antonio, and Nolan Pierce: White would be examining their phones with their permission and downloading any pertinent communications, while repeat interviews would be concluded. Crow, Rogers, and Perdue easily complied with all requests for phone information and followed up with additional interviews. There was nothing new developed from this visit to change any aspect of what is currently known. Yates was home but sent word he was unavailable. It is the opinion of the undersigned that Yates, and possibly others are growing weary of being interviewed. Especially considering the recent exposure of communications to Jon Crow, suggesting that he is not telling the truth.

Colby earned a Promise Scholarship after he was graduated from Cameron High School in 2018.

(The Day)

The undersigned and company then met with Ryan Clutter, Cole Clutter, Parker D’Antonio and Nolan Pierce at Clutter’s residence on 17th Street. Nolan Pierce confirmed that he had worked out with Brown at approximately 12 p.m. the day of the incident and that Brown appeared to be in usual form. He did not have any problems with his workout, was not complaining of not feeling well, and was looking forward to school. He recalled that they worked out for about an hour. He did not know where Brown was going after the workout and assumed that he was going to class. He also confirmed that Brown was a heavy marijuana user and liked to party with Jon Crow. Ryan & Cole Clutter, along with Parker D’Antonio confirmed that Brown was over at Crow’s on a frequent basis and often stayed over there when he was too high to drive; they stated that he partied there because they had a “drug-free” residence and did not permit any drugs to be kept or used at the house on 17th Street. Brown respected the rule and kept his drug activity at Crow’s house. They recalled that he smoked marijuana on a nearly daily basis and had recently used mushrooms with Crow. They do not recall him having any difficulty or acting strangely as a result. Ryan last saw Brown at approximately 4:30 p.m. as he left for Crow’s house. Cole last saw Brown the night before and was up late talking with him until early morning, noting that there was nothing unusual about Brown. Pierce last saw Brown at approximately 1 p.m. the day of the incident. D’Antonio last saw Brown at approximately 11 a.m. before Brown left for his workout with Pierce. And recalled being at a fraternity meeting that night when he received a message asking if he had seen Brown. Like the others, they were not informed about what had occurred until the meeting with police officers at the Speedway Service Station at approximately 10 p.m. All phones were examined by White and pertinent information was collected; noting none of the information sheds any new light on the issue.

This is the McCoy Road Bridge that is approximately three miles from the apartment where Colby was playing video games with friends.

(October Status Report)

On 10/22/19 the undersigned spoke with Sgt. Joyce, he informed that the Toxicology Report was finished and was available, nothing that there was an extraordinary level of THC in Brown’s blood sample; also a brief discussion was had comparing information received from potential witnesses; there was a consensus that all information received by the undersigned was essentially the same as the state police received contemporaneously to the event. Nothing has changed the direction of the investigation or their opinion that Brown accidentally fell from the bridge (not a suicide as listed by the ME), and that there was certainly no suggestion or evidence of foul play (no homicide). 10/23/19 the final Medical Examiner report was received by the undersigned; the toxicology report reveals an excessively high level of THC (3 types) in the sample; the injuries indicated are all consistent with a fall from a bridge onto black-top pavement from an approximate height of 95 feet. There are no photographs supplied; it is assumed that there were none taken of the final examination. The Medical Examiner’s representative has informed the undersigned that an existing blood sample from Brown will be kept for a mandated one-year period. A sample exists for further independent blood testing should the family desire it. Conclusions Colby Brown’s telephone is still with the WV State Police Forensics Unit and will be available when they have concluded their examination. It is uncertain when that will be complete. Paul White’s examinations of the various phones owned by those certain individuals permitting the examinations did not conclude with any information adverse to the current understanding of the facts in this matter. There did not appear to be any contradictions of statements previously made by any of the parties involved. His forensic examination of Brown’s computer revealed a history of drug use, primarily marijuana, suggesting that Brown, as well as others, were more than just casual users of the drug. There was nothing developed during the examination that shed any greater light on the critical matter at hand. There was nothing found on this device that indicated there was any deceptive communication or practice pertaining to the immediate issue. Concentrating on only the facts developed and known at this juncture, it is more than likely that Colby Brown experienced some type of psychotic event brought on by the ingestion of an excess of very strong marijuana; causing him enough confusion and possible hallucinations, so as to not be completely aware of his surroundings. There are multiple medical studies addressing this phenomenon; albeit previously noted to be uncommon, but now occurring more frequently since the advent of the development of stronger cannabis strains in recent years; along with the more liberal attitudes toward usage, causing greater and freer participating in use than past years. Today’s marijuana is quite often 10 times if not a hundred times more potent in THC than marijuana used prior to the '70s and '80s. It is the opinion of the undersigned based upon the facts known at present, that Colby Brown’s death was accidental; there is no evidence of suicide; there is no evidence of anyone conspiring to do him harm or killing him certainly no homicide. There is not evidence of any person attempting to cover up any circumstances about his death. John P. Casey, Investigator Allegheny Highlands Group, LLC

Colby was a leader on and off the field for the Cameron Dragons.

Nothing New?

Although Casey concluded Colby did not take his own life, Gwen Wood feels cheated. “The report from the private investigator is shameful and a complete waste of $5,500,” Gwen insisted. “Most of everything in what that PI gave us is the information we gave him, and there was nothing but the same repeated stories we’ve heard from his friends every single time. And we told him about that stuff, and that’s still what was brought back to us. “There was nothing new and it just followed the same narrative of the state police report,” she said in frustration. “Like I said, a waste of $5,500.” Suicide? No Way – Part 1 Suicide? No Way - Part 2 Suicide? No Way - Part 3 Read the full article

NEW YORK (AP) — Sears Holdings Corp. will be closing over 100 more stores as the struggling department store chain tries to turn around its business.

The Hoffman Estates, Illinois-based company says that includes 64 Kmart stores and 39 Sears stores that will be shuttered between early March and early April.

Liquidation sales will begin as soon as next Friday at the stores.

A Sears spokesman said Thursday the number of workers affected was not available. The majority of the jobs are part-time positions, Sears said.

The move comes in addition to closing about 250 stores announced last year.

Sears has been selling off some its real estate and brands as it tries to raise cash.

Earlier Thursday, Macy’s Inc. announced it was closing 11 stores early this year.

Are YOU required to have auto insurance or is the CAR required?

Simple question, is the person driving suppose to by law(i live in oklahoma) have insurance or can the car just be insured by someone else say, parent, aunt, uncle, grandparent? i know legally if the car is in a collision then the insurance policy my by null and void. but i want to know the technicalities if i just have one of my relatives insure my car without me being listed can i get in trouble if i dont get into any accidents or the person whos name its under? ive spoken with many insurance agents saying that technically you can do what i stated above but most insurance companies will drop coverage if they find out that someone is driving the vehicle other than the rated driver. im just tired of paying 150+ for liability due to unfortunate events in the past...thank you.""

Motorcycle totaled with no insurance?

Ok long story short I bought a bike few weekends ago on a Saturday morning with a loan on it from a dealer. That same weekend which would be Sunday night I hit some gravel on a curved road and the bike flew from under me and it sounds like its totaled according to the dealer. Problem is I didn't have insurance on it yet because it was the weekend still. And I added insurance that week after it happened but I think they're going to find out I didn't have insurance on it at the time of the accident . Sooo what happens now ? Am I stuck paying for a bike that's totaled ? Does the gap insurance on the loan help me out in anyway ? Please help cause I'm really stressing out about this..

What are your rights if a person's car hits you and they don't have auto insurance?

This was a non-reportable vehicle accident. The person's car who hit mine was a manual and somehow came down the hill and hit my car. No one was in that person's car. But it rolled down and hit my car. I went to a dealer to get an estimate and it was about $955. I have car insurance, but the other guy doesn't. I have full coverage, but my deductible is $1000. What are my options? The owner of that car who hit me said that he is a mechanic and can fix my car. What should I do? Should I allow him or should I ask for his certification/license? I don't know if I can trust them either. I would rather have someone else fix it. Or should I just ask him to pay for the accident since he doesn't have car insurance?

BMW Z4 windshield insurance question... help please!?

Hi, I have a 2004 BMW Z4, and the rain sensor, for automatic wipers, has broken. Apparently, you need to replace the whole windshield to fix this (if you know different, let me know!), so my question is... is it possible for me to claim for this under my insurance? My windshield excess is 70, but I assume that is for when the windshield is cracked or damaged etc. So, seeing as mine is not damaged, only the sensor, is there any way I can claim? Also, if anyone knows how much a new windshield for a Z4 is, that would be great too.. I can't find any figures but I assume it's pricey :-( Any help or advice on this would be greatly appreciated (I'm in the UK, by the way).. Cheers!""

Car Insurance - What kind of coverage is needed for an Occasional Driver...?

Okay, this is the deal, I have full coverage car insurance. This means that the insurance will cover me, if I have an accident that is my fault or if someone else hits me & it's not my fault. I also have insurance that covers me if someone breaks into my car & steals any kind of important items in my car. The Question... I sometimes let other people drive my car, to run errands for me (like driving my car home, cause I'm too sleepy to drive or I'm super busy & need an item from the store & I hand my keys to a licensed driver). I talked to my insurance company & was told they do not have coverage that will cover other drivers unless they are listed under my coverage. The problem - I don't want to list everybody in my family or all my friends. Isn't there insurance coverage that will cover anybody driving my vihecle as long as they are older than 25 & has a valid license? If so, what's the name of this type coverage - I nd to know the name b4 I call other companys. thanks""

Why are there no good health insurance companies?

While thinking about the idea of an altruistic, fair public option for health insurance, I started trying to figure out why something like it doesn't already exist. (Or maybe it does?) The assumption seems to be that health insurance companies are causing problems through systematic greed, and the public option would help keep them honest. But, if this is the case, why isn't there an organization doing this already? Why don't the good, people, such as the ones that take less-pay than they could in other sectors to run major charitable organizations, start a good health insurance company that doesn't do any of the bad things that the other insurance companies do. If such an organization were to exist, it seems that everyone would switch to it, and even the most greedy of insurance companies would have to become like it in order to compete. There are obviously enough qualified and caring people out there to make such an organization happen without any government involvement. So why dont such organizations exist? I have a few ideas, but they dont explain the whole story. Maybe the fact that people dont usually shop around for health insurance because its chosen by their employers prevents new good insurance companies from gaining the market share required to make the bad ones change? Maybe health insurance companies are already as good as they can be, despite a few heartless employees, and the primary problems in health care come from somewhere else? Maybe protectionist legal policies prevent altruistic organizations from freely forming? Any thoughts?""

Why is health insurance so hard to get?

I'm almost 20 years old, a full time student and do not have health insurance. When I was 16, my parents switched insurance companies, and for some reason or other they did not put me on their policy. So I have not had insurance for 3 years. In February I found out I was pregnant so I began applying for Medicaid. Before all the paperwork was done, I had miscarried and in the process racked up almost $6000 in medical bills. I went to the medicaid office and they told me that they would cover my bills even though I was no longer pregnant and college students don't qualify. After 2 months of waiting, Medicaid denied me and the hospital turned me into a collection agency. I was denied because I make too much money. I make $8.55 an hour and work about 15 hours a week. Yes I do make good money for a student but I have worked at the business for 3 1/2 years. Because I am not a full time employee, I don't qualify for insurance, but only managers and department heads are full time. I can't get a second job to help pay the costs because my first job wont work around another one, and I can't find a full time job because no where is hiring. Plus it would be very hard to find anywhere that pays as well as the job I have here. So if health insurance is so important to have, then why is it so hard to obtain?""

Auto insurance wrong information!!?

Relatively, I am a new resident in the USA, I have been here for 18 months only, and I am trying to get a car insurance. The problem is the insurance companies give a huge discount for those who got licensed in the USA or Canada at age 16, but they do not consider other countries. For this reason I have to pay a ridiculous amount of money to get the state minimum requirements for auto insurance. In fact I have been licensed in my country since 1998.. I wonder what's the influence if I choose to answer yes when the insurance company agent asks me whether I got licensed at age 16 or not in the USA or Canada? Because technically I am already licensed at that age but not here!!""

She wants to get certified as personal fitness trainer, and so she will be dropped off of my insurance, since this is not a full time student program. She was 18 in June, and lives in Texas. She is going to soon have to be dropped of of my health insurance. I do not think that Applebees provides any insurance for hourly employees. She also has asthma, although not real bad, but this is a pre-existing conditions. Will she be able to get any kind of affordable health insurance, or is she just going to have to be one of the millions who can't have health insurance?""

My first flight in actual IMC as an instrument student

I started my flight training on January 19, 2008, taking instruction as I could, and received my Private Pilot Certificate on July 21, 2009. At that time, I thought my practical test was hard, that is, until I started working on an instrument rating.

I had been working with my friend and neighbor, Jack, on an instrument rating. On October 17, 2013, Jack called and said, “It’s a great day for some instrument work.” Shortly after, we headed out to the airport. Jack has been flying for 66 years, starting at the age of 20. Yes, that’s correct. If you do the math, you’ll see he was 86 years old at the time and flew a plane like it was second nature to him, both VFR and IFR. It was a joy to watch him fly his Cessna 150 or his Piper Aztec, both of which he handled like dear old friends. It was also a joy to work with him on this instrument rating.

There are enough mountains in West Virginia to get your attention, especially in a Cessna 150.

We discussed flying to Bluefield, West Virginia, only 30 NM to the south. The first thing he had me do was get a weather briefing. The conditions at Beckley, WV (KBKW), our home airport, were forecast to be winds at 190 degrees at 6 knots, visibility plus 6 SM, rain showers and overcast at 2000 feet. At Bluefield, WV (KBLF), the conditions were forecast to be winds at 230 degrees at 7 knots, visibility plus 6 SM, rain showers and overcast at 2500 feet, with IFR conditions en route. After the weather briefing, I completed the pre-flight, calculated how much fuel I needed, completed the weight and balance of the plane, and called for fuel. After fueling, I then filed a round robin IFR Flight Plan from KBKW to KBLF and back and was ready to go. We were flying the Cessna 150, which is a fantastic little plane and fun to fly.

After getting my clearance from Charleston, WV (KCRW), because KBKW and KBLF are both non-towered airports, we departed KBKW on Runway 28 at 11:00 am and entered instrument conditions at approximately 4900 feet MSL, 2000 feet AGL. We stayed in IMC conditions all the way to Bluefield and back until breaking out on the approach into Beckley. Southern West Virginia is a beautiful mountainous area. The mountains between Beckley and Bluefield are around 4,000 feet, making altitude very important.

After departing the runway, I turned to the south on the assigned heading of 185 and climbed to 6,000 feet in the clouds. The C150 was working hard to get us to altitude, but it got us there. After approximately 15 minutes, I began setting up for the ILS/LOC Runway 23 approach into KBLF, doing everything I could do to keep the needles from having a full deflection and at the same time trying to maintain the appropriate altitude. Jack sat calmly in the right seat making some slight comments about watching my altitude and course, and, as I began to lose the needles, he would say, “Now, John, watch the needles. You know what to do; just do it.” I did just what he said, just as he had taught me, and slowly brought everything back.

As we reached the decision altitude at KBLF, we decided to return to Beckley. I contacted Charleston Approach, informing them we were returning to Beckley. The controller assigned a heading of 015 degrees and an altitude of 7000 feet. Again, the little 150 was doing all it could to get us to altitude, and it succeeded. After about 15 minutes, still in the clouds, Approach vectored me to the KBKW Runway 19 ILS. I turned, picked up the ILS, and began my approach.

The wind had picked up quite a bit from the southwest and was getting stronger. Again, I was fighting to keep from losing the needles to a full deflection to the right. The little 150 just didn’t have the performance, and the wind was working on it hard. The whole time Jack was encouraging me, saying, “You know what to do. You can do it; just do it.”

No matter what the avionics, the basics are the same: keep the needles crossed.

At one point, I was so tensed up, worn out from fighting the wind and trying to get needles centered, that I thought, “I just can’t do this. I should just give up and let Jack fly it in. This is so hard. Maybe I should just give up flying altogether.” Those thoughts lasted for just a brief moment when I heard Jack’s encouragement again, and I said to myself, “I can do this. I want to do this. Just do it.”

I continued to make heading and altitude adjustments like he instructed and how we had worked on under the hood, and I slowly got the airplane back to where I wanted it. Then, finally, after what seemed like an eternity, we broke out of the clouds around 3700 feet MSL and the runway was right in front of me, exactly where it should be and just like what you see in the training videos. I made what I thought was a nice landing and taxied to the hangar. As I got out of the airplane, I realized my legs were shaking so much that I could hardly walk. As we were putting up the plane and debriefing, Jack was still encouraging me with statements like, “That was a nice flight with a nice landing,” and, “You know what you’re doing. We just need to practice.”

I drove home after the flight, about a five-minute drive, turning off the radio to reflect in silence. Once I got home, I literally fell onto the couch and began to think about what I had just done. I laid there for about 15 or 20 minutes, my legs still shaking, going over it in my head. The more I thought about it, the more excited I got. I called Jack and said, “Jack, that had to be one of the hardest things I’ve ever done in my life and one of the most fun.” We both had a good laugh over it as he continued his encouragement.

I am still flying with Jack today and learning something new every time we fly. He has since sold the C150 and the Aztec and bought a beautiful R172K that we’re painting and restoring the interior. Occasionally, we’ll bring up that flight back in October of 2013 and have a good laugh. I still tell him that was one of the hardest things and one of the most fun things that I have ever done in my life.

Falls of Hills Creek Scenic Area, a short detour off the Highland Scenic Highway in the Monongahela National Forest. The scenic area includes three beautiful waterfalls on Hills Creek, the lowest of which (top photo) is the second highest waterfall in West Virginia.

From top: the lower falls, which is 63 feet high; the middle falls, which is 45 feet high; great rhododendron (Rhododendron maximum) in bloom; a ravine hillside overspilling with ferns, hairy wood mint (Blephilia hirsuta), and wild hydrangea (Hydrangea arborescens); a gorgeous hairy wood mint, whose stacked, fragrant flower garlands lead to its other common name - hairy pagoda plant.

We rode motorcycle across the Highland Scenic Highway as part of our long get away weekend. I left this and another road off those posts as they deserve their own discussion. In a nutshell, if you are anywhere near this road you owe it to yourself to enjoy this ride.

It is not a technical, twisty motorcycle road but fun in its own way. It is more like the Blue Ridge Parkway or Skyline Drive, 43 miles of ridge top riding with spectacular views and vistas. Just a sit back, relax and enjoy kind of road.

The Highland Scenic Highway runs from Richwood WV to US Route 219, or vice versa. The highway is also an “American Byway” that rolls through Monongahela National Forest. We were a week or two early for the peek fall foliage displays but if you time it right it is going to be a wow moment with all the hardwood forests on leafy display. There are 4 overlooks to stop and view undeveloped wilderness, not all had open facilities, but each had paved parking and picnic areas.

As for the road itself, it was well maintained with mostly rolling ridge top riding. Toward the northern end there was a long, steep incline, parts of which are 9% or (seems) greater! With over two thousand feet of elevation change, I had the motorcycle in 3rd gear and used engine braking for what felt like miles of decent. Had the day not been getting late and the shadows long, I would have turned around and rode the Highland Scenic Highway again.

Make sure your tank is topped off before riding, while it is relatively short there are no fuel or snacks along the route. This road would make for a nice picnic ride, pack your lunch in, stop at an overlook or trail head (there are a lot of hiking trails) for a fun afternoon.

This Scenic Highway is not as easy to get to as most others, it really is in the middle of nowhere. However, the roads you need to take to get to this byway are just as fun as any we have rode. If this area and the Highland Scenic Highway are not on your motorcycling bucket list, you need to add them right now!

Hagerstown ranks аѕ Maryland's sixth largest incorporated city.

Hagerstown hаѕ а distinct topography, formed bу stone ridges running frоm northeast tо southwest thrоugh thе center оf town. Geography ассоrdіnglу bounds іtѕ neighborhoods. Thеѕе ridges consist оf upper Stonehenge limestone. Mаnу оf thе older buildings wеrе built frоm thіѕ stone, whісh іѕ easily quarried аnd dressed onsite. It whitens іn weathering аnd thе edgewise conglomerate аnd wavy laminae bесоmе distinctly visible, giving а handsome аnd uniquely “Cumberland Valley” appearance. Sеvеrаl оf Hagerstown’s churches аrе constructed оf Stonehenge limestone аnd іtѕ vаluе аnd beauty аѕ building rock mаnу bе ѕееn раrtісulаrlу іn St. John’s Episcopal Church оn West Antietam Street аnd thе Presbyterian Church аt thе corner оf Washington аnd Prospect Streets. Brick аnd concrete eventually displaced thіѕ native stone іn thе construction process.

Hagerstown anchors thе Hagerstown-Martinsburg, MD-WV Metropolitan Statistical Area, whісh lies јuѕt northwest оf thе Washington-Baltimore-Northern Virginia, DC-MD-VA-WV Combined Statistical Area іn thе heart оf thе Great Appalachian Valley. Thе population оf thе metropolitan area іn 2010 wаѕ 269,140. Greater Hagerstown іѕ thе fastest-growing metropolitan area іn thе state оf Maryland аnd аmоng thе fastest growing іn thе United States.

Hagerstown Public Square circa 1900. In 1739, Jonathan Hager, а German immigrant frоm Pennsylvania аnd а volunteer Captain оf Scouts, purchased 200 acres (81 ha) оf land іn thе Great Appalachian Valley bеtwееn thе Blue Ridge аnd Allegheny Mountains іn Maryland аnd called іt Hager’s Fancy. In 1762, Hager officially founded thе town оf Elizabethtown whісh hе named аftеr hіѕ wife, Elizabeth Kershner. Fourteen years later, Jonathan Hager bесаmе knоwn аѕ thе "Father оf Washington County" аftеr hіѕ efforts helped Hagerstown bесоmе thе county seat оf newly created Washington County whісh Hager аlѕо helped create frоm neighboring Frederick County, Maryland. Thе City Council changed thе community's nаmе tо Hager's-Town іn 1813 bесаuѕе thе nаmе hаd gained popular usage, аnd іn thе fоllоwіng year, thе Maryland State Legislature officially endorsed thе changing оf thе town’s name.
