The Shoppers Weekly Papers Mt. Vernon Area

What's Going On? (Make Me Wanna Holler) I wrote a simple column last week about Peyton Manning, and this week I write an even simpler one.

Last week I shared how I first met Manning (behind

the Colts' bench during the first half of a game versus the Falcons, in a place I was not allowed to be, taking red-eye reduction flash pictures with my trusty Minolta). Also, I opined that he was one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time ... top 10 for sure. He is

the QB with the most wins ever, the only QB to win Super Bowls for two different teams, and he holds a host of other passing records that usually surpass QBs with names like Brett Favre and Dan Marino. You get the point.

Even though Manning failed to provide a stellar performance during Super Bowl 50, he grabbed most of the limelight when Denver's defense deserved more (and as an aside ... if Denver was the home team, why did they opt for the all-white uniforms? How do you not go with the "Orange Crush" unis?). Manning managed to suck all the air out of the

room anyway.

It happened just like we knew it would. You could run a soundtrack of Howard Cossell, Bill Grigsby, Pat Summerall, Keith Jackson and all the rest of the great legends who once graced the NFL broadcast booth. Win or lose, Peyton Manning, his arm on a string, the aging legend in perhaps the final game of his career.

Will he retire on top? Will he go to the Los Angeles Rams and reintroduce football to the traffic-addled city of angels for trillions of dollars? Will he jump into the booth?

Most importantly, will he figure out how to deal with

Wednesday, March 9, 2016 the story that has him sexually harassing a Tennessee trainer during his college tenure? A story that has all but robbed him of any extra glory he was entitled to for his feats on the field?

Here's my simple conclusion, so easy to understand that even a caveman would grasp it: Stop abusing women.

Manning has already admitted to some manner of vulgar action in the incident that happened a quarter century ago. The story came back to haunt him at the worst possible time, as often happens in life when you think you're on top of the world. The world is like a pot

The solution is simple: apologize. Own it. Give the woman another million or whatever it is she wants if you're guilty enough. You made a bad decision, now move on.

For the rest of the NFL, the idea rings clear, too: Hit a woman, hit a cop, hit anybody off the field, you're out of the game. Simple enough for you?

GIRL SCOUT VOLUNTEER HELPS GIRLS REALIZE THEIR DREAMS Since 1916, Girl Scouts have been making meaningful, sustainable change in their communities and around the world through their Girl Scout Gold Award projects. The Girl Scout Gold Award, the highest honor a Girl Scout can earn, acknowledges the power behind each recipient’s dedication to not only empowering herself, but also to making the world a better place for others. As the Girl Scout Gold Award celebrates 100 years of girls changing the world, Girl Scouts of Southern Illinois (GSSI) is highlighting some of our shining stars who exemplify the greatness of this award.

A great part of the success of many organizations relies heavily on the quality and dedication of volunteers who are passionate about the organization they are serving. This is true about Girl Scouts as an organization, and this is true about Angie Zahn as a long-time Girl Scout volunteer.

Angie Z ahn f rom Trenton, IL is a Managing Broker with Strano & Associates Real Estate.

Even with her busy career, Angie has found time to pour her heart and soul into Girl Scouting. Being a Girl Scout Troop Leader for 29 years is quite an accomplishment in itself, but it doesn’t stop there for this volunteer. Angie has worn (and still wears) many hats with Girl Scouts, ranging from Day Camp staff to Board of Directors Chair.

One of the roles that Angie has held for several years, and still holds today, is that of Girl Scout Gold Award advisor and mentor.

The Girl Scout Gold

The Shoppers Weekly Papers Mt. Vernon Area

Award is the highest award a girl can earn in Girl Scouting. To earn this award, a Girl Scout Senior or Girl Scout Ambassador must design and carry out a project that fulfills a need within her community, creates change and is sustainable. The project must be completed with a suggested minimum of 80 hours of work, and only about 5 percent of eligible girls earn the prestigious Gold Award. To say that a girl’s Gold Award Advisor is instrumental in her journey would be an understatement.

Angie began her adventure as a Girl Scout Gold Award Advisor by first mentoring her daughter through her Gold Award project. Angie’s daughter, Jennifer, developed a summer reading program for kids in their hometown of Trenton. Jennifer arranged for speakers, door prizes and activities for the kids at the library all summer. Angie went on to mentor another 6 girls through their Gold Award projects, including Sarah Monical who is now Angie’s Troop Co-Leader.

She hasn’t stopped there; Angie is currently working with her eighth Girl Scout who is going for Gold.

“At the end of the day, we talk a great deal about how the Girl Scout Gold Award project was designed to benefit others.

What I have seen time after time is truly the benefit to the girls. The payback for our girls comes from finding out they are capable of making a difference, that they are capable of making decisions that affect themselves and others, and that they have it within themselves

to succeed,” said Angie of the Girl Scouts she has mentored.

As we celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Girl Scout Gold Award, Angie encourages other adults to consider becoming a Girl Scout volunteer and Gold Award advisor.

She states, “There is nothing more satisfying than watching a young woman recognize her own power and realize her dreams.”

Today, Girl Scouts of the U.S.A. is the largest voluntary organization for girls in the world. Its sole focus is to meet the needs of all girls (ages 5-17) from diverse racial, ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds. Today’s Girl Scouts not only enjoy camping and crafts, but they also explore math and science and learn about diversity, good citizenship, leadership and teamwork.

Girl Scouting is the place where girls experience the fun, friendship and power of girls together.

BE A HERO AND DONATE BLOOD DURING RED CROSS MONTH

NATIONAL FFA WEEK CELEBRATED ON RLC CAMPUS

During Red Cross Month in March, the American Red Cross invites individuals to become everyday heroes by giving blood.

March has been recognized as Red Cross Month by every U.S. president since 1943. Red Cross Month is a celebration of supporters who are the face of the Red Cross in their communities, helping to prepare for and bringing help and hope after emergencies.

For more than 30 years, blood donor Sherri Kay has been helping the Red Cross fulfill its lifesaving mission.

“Knowing that I help to save lives and make a difference through the Red Cross is one of the most significant things that I do,” she said.

Heroes of all blood types are needed to ensure a sufficient blood supply this spring. The Red Cross must collect approximately 14,000 blood and platelet donations every day for patients.

Make an appointment to donate blood by downloading the free Red Cross Blood Donor App, visiting redcrossblood.org or calling 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767).

Rend Lake College students involved with the Collegiate FFA celebrated National FFA Week this week on campus. The club collected canned food across campus to donate to a local food bank. Pictured are (L to R) front: FFA Sponsor and Ag Associate Professor Kathy Craig and Kayla Mayberry (Galatia); middle: Claire Pytlinski (Waltonville), Amy Kovarik (Benton), Mark Wiggins (Mt.

High school students and other donors 18 years of age and younger also have to meet certain height and weight requirements.

I can't stress enough the 2016 election is for the Republican establishment to lose through nothing more than greed and control. And as for Mitch McConnell and his recent comment, according to a New York Times leak he said, "We'll dump Trump like a hot rock" if he's the GOP nominee. In my opinion, McConnell is no better than Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi and of course Illinois' own Michael Madigan. All four have been in office way too long.

It's not that I'm all in for Donald Trump; it's how dare the Republican establishment try to sabotage the will of the people. It's called democracy, and the GOP's Washington bureaucrats' threats to name someone else is not what this country was founded on and not what many have fought and died for. It's called freedom.

And to make matters worse, in comes Mitt Romney with his hateful comments against Trump.

This from someone that didn't throw his own hat in the ring for President in 2016. Perhaps time will tell.

I personally supported Mr. Romney in 2012, but I can't support his effort to unhinge the people's rights in a way no American (Democrat or Republican) should support.

And in the end, he only helped boost Trump's numbers and make a fool of himself. (Mr. I-was-for-himbefore-I-was-against-him.)

If the Republican establishment continues, they'll be helping Hillary get elected — a woman that should be sitting in a jail cell and could be before the 2016 election.

Could it be we're watching the Republican Party as we

know it break up? I said before this is their election to lose. The big question is do they get it?

Shades of 2012 when they lost — or should I say gave away — the White House to Barack Obama, a do-nothing President for four years, backed by — for the most part — a corrupt administration. He was weak and inexperienced, not to mention a Congress with an approval rating of 13%, and people wonder why Trump is so popular. It's because of people in Washington like McConnell, Pelosi, Harry Reid and Obama, the great divider — people who could care less as long as they can control.

Kentucky, Louisiana and Maine. In the end, Trump and Cruz split the states two and two. Kentucky and Louisiana were for Trump, and Kansas and Maine were for Cruz. Rubio won Puerto Rico.

Polling has started in Rubio's home state of Florida where early polling shows Trump in the lead. If Rubio doesn't take his home state, my prediction is he's out, and if Trump takes Florida and Kasich's home state of Ohio, other than for the establishment destroying him, Trump will be the GOP nominee.

But if Kasich takes Ohio and Rubio takes Florida, it could change the dynamics of this election, possibly giving the Republican establishment the opportunity to name a nominee in July when we could be looking at a brokered convention. And if that happens, I can assure you the Republican Party will lose the White House, in turn making the American people the greatest loser.

But after listening to the last Democratic debate Sunday night, I'll take any, including Donald Trump, over the two brain dead candidates of the Democratic Party.

On to the GOP debate last Thursday, a most important one since it was the last before March 15. Millions across the country watched and talked about the debate.

There were only four on the stage: Trump, Cruz, Rubio and Kasich. One of the first questions out of the box was addressed to Trump about Romney's negative press conference. What was that about, other than ratings?

And three of the candidates played right into it. That evening, in my opinion, John Leaving you this week Kasich was the only adult on with one thought: One thing stage.

Girl Scouts of Southern Illinois will celebrate the 104th anniversary by participating in a variety of local activities and events.

Girl Scouts often celebrate the occasion in their communities by participating in such events as flag ceremonies at their schools, birthday party celebrations

and community service projects with their troops while others will create displays highlighting Girl Scout history.

mission statement both focus on making the world a better place. During our 104 year history, our girls and volunteers have continued to live by this standard,” said Villie M. Appoo, CEO Girl S couts of Southern Illinois. “Girl Scouts are passionate about making their communities and the world a better place, and the Girl Scout Leadership Experience gives them the courage, confidence and character to follow their dreams,” Appoo added.

Girl Scout Sunday (March 6) is when many Girl Scouts receive special religious recognition awards for researching and exploring their religious culture and practices.

Many girls will proudly wear their Girl Scout uniforms to their religious services to kick-off the week’s events.

“Girl Scouting is committed to being a vital part of our communities.

During Girl Scout Week, we salute and thank all those who continue to offer their support to Girl Scouting. The positive influence Girl Scouting has on young people is dependent on our dedicated volunteers and supportive community members,” said Appoo. “During Girl Scout Week, we renew our commitment to ensuring that every girl has the opportunity to grow strong and realize her full potential.

But we need your help! We invite everyone — men and women — over 18 to volunteer with Girl Scouts.

You don’t have to be a troop leader; even if you can only donate one hour of your time once a year, you’ll be making a great difference in the lives of girls.”

It’s been 104 years since the first Girl Scout troop meeting, and Girl Scouting has evolved from 18 members to nearly 3 million nationwide. Today, Girl Scouts of the USA is the largest voluntary organization for girls in the world. Its sole focus is to meet the needs of all girls (ages 5-17) from diverse racial, ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds.

After returning to the Un it e d St at e s f rom England, Juliette Gordon

Low made a historic phone call to her cousin in March 1912, “Come right over!

I’ve got something for the girls of Savannah, all America, and all the world, and we’re going to start it tonight.” The “something” was Girl Scouts, and the first group of girls embarked on Low’s vision.

Low was determined to help expand opportunities and learning for the average American girl. At a time when many girls’ paths in life were limited to their social standing, Low’s vision was to establish an organization where any American girl could expand her personal horizon by having fun, while exploring new interests and contributing to society.

The mission of Girl Scouting states: Girl Scouting builds girls of courage, confidence, and character who make the world a better place. Girl Scouts is the world's preeminent organization dedicated solely to girls — all girls — where, in an accepting and nurturing environment, girls build character and skills for success in the real world.

In partnership with committed adults, girls develop qualities that will serve them all their lives — like strong values, social conscience, and conviction about their own potential and self-worth.

Today’s Girl Scouts not only enjoy camping and crafts, but they also explore math and science and learn about diversity, good citizenship, leadership and teamwork. Girl Scouting is the place where girls experience the fun, friendship and power of girls together.

Girl Scouting has inspired more than 59 million girls and women since its founding in 1912.

Girl Scouts of Southern Illinois is a not-for-profit organization supported by various United Ways throughout the region. Girl Scouts is a Proud Partner of United Way.

Eliphaz, ancient Job’s friend, gave this assessment of Job’s plight — “Man is born to trouble, as t he sp arks f ly upward.” (Job 5:7) The Merriam Webster Dictionary defines trouble as, “to agitate mentally or spiritually, disturb, worry. To produce physical disorder in: afflict . . . an instance of distress or annoyance.

Disease or ailment of heart.” Jesus gave some signs of the times and the end of the age. “For nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be earthquakes in various places and there will be famines and troubles.

These are the beginning of sorrows.” (Mark 13:8) Troubles rage throughout the world and many have troubled hearts.

Before Jesus went to the cross to die for the sins of the world he foretold of the suffering he would endure and of His eminent death. His disciples were troubled.

He assured them and gave them great hope.

“Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in

1. Is the book of Ezekiel in the Old or New Testament or neither?

2. Who had 900 iron chariots and made 20 years of life unbearable for the Israelites? Tobiah, Pilate, Sisera, Absalom 3. After six days, God saw all that he had made,

me.” (John 14:1) If you have a troubled heart, let Jesus’ words fill you with hope in believing these great promises.

THE PEACE. “Let not your heart be troubled, you believe in God, believe also in me.” (John 14:1) Jesus is the Prince of Peace.

(Isaiah 9:6) The psalmist David gave us this hope, “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

Therefore, will not we fear, though the earth be removed and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; though the waters there of roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling there of.”

Selah. (Psalm 46:1-3) How do we come into this peace? Jesus said, “Believe in God, believe also in Me.’ (John 14:1) Abraham was troubled because he was old and had no heir. The word of the Lord came to him

saying, “I am your shield and your exceedingly great reward. God promised a son to Abraham and God’s Word gives us the key to God’s blessing, “And he believed in the Lord and He accounted it to him as righteousness.”

(Genesis 16:1, 6) Peace with God and the peace of God comes through believing. (John 14:27) THE PLACE. The disciples thought they were going to be abandoned. Jesus assured them that He was going to make a place for them. “In My Father’s house are many mansions . . . I go to prepare a place for you.” (John 14:2) Heaven is so real.

It’s a place for all who will believe in Christ.

Rejoice, He has a glorious place for you in heaven.

THE PROMISE. “I will come again and receive you to myself, that where I am, there you may be also.” (John 14:3) The promise of Christ’s return is called the blessed hope. Paul gave the revelation of the rapture of the church, being caught up to meet Christ in the air at His return. (I Thessalonians 4:13-18) He

then adds, “Comfort one another with these words.” Are you ready for His appearing and the great catching away?

THE PATH. Thomas was troubled by Jesus’ teaching. He anxiously told Jesus that he didn’t know about this way that Jesus was talking about. Jesus made it very clear, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. (John 14:4-6) Believing in Jesus is the only path to eternal life and a home in heaven.

THE PERSON. Philip didn’t fully understand who Jesus was. Jesus clearly claimed His deity. “He who has seen Me has seen the Father . . . Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father in Me?” (John 14:7-11) When you truly see Jesus you will be at peace.

Like the old song says, “Jesuss is the bridge over troubled water.” “Let not your heart be troubled. You believe in God. Believe also in Me.” Shalom, Cliff Sanders Eagle Life Ministries eagleslife8@gmail.com

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You might feel more encouraged about changes in your personal and/or professional life. However, it might be best not to rush things but rather work with them as they evolve.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) The Bovine’s business sense is especially keen this week. But remember that it’s always best to investigate before investing. Make sure there are no hidden factors that can rise up later on.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Working on a family project could create tension between and among those concerned. Your good sense and your patience can help reduce bad attitudes and raise positive feelings.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) You should be seeing more progress in the development of your plans and more supporters joining in. News from the past could help change someone’s long-held position.

LEO (July 23 to August 22) With personal aspects strong this week, Leos and Leonas might want to spend more time with family and others who are especially close to them. Also expect news of a possible career change.

VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Taking a strong stand can be helpful this week. But be careful you don’t cross the line into obstinacy. Best to take a position on facts as they are, not as you want them to be.

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) You have a strong sense of the needs of others. This week, turn

some of that sensitivity into an honest self-appraisal, and let it find places where you can help yourself.

SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Creating an emotional comfort zone to handle a personal problem helps at first. But by midweek, you’ll realize you need to deal with it directly or it could linger for too long.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Turning the page on a mistake to start fresh might not be the thing to do. Better to go over each step that led up to the decision you made and see which one misled you.

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Goats enjoy a varied diet, but eating crow isn’t on the menu -- at least not this week. An embarrassing situation might have gone wrong before you got into it.

Check it out.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Your sense of honesty might impel you to speak up about a situation you disapprove of. That’s fine. But do so without sounding accusatory. You might not know all the facts behind it.

PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Being asked to create a reassuring attitude in the middle of chaos isn’t easy, but you can do it. Support for your efforts comes slowly, but it does come. Enjoy an arts-filled weekend.
