RLC Mourns The Passing Of A President The Rend Lake College community lost one of its most impactful leaders Thursday. Mark S. Kern, the longest-serving president in Rend Lake College’s history, passed away March 8, 2018. “Mark always was an adamant supporter of Rend Lake College. In all his years as an instructor, a dean and as President, every decision he made was for the good of this college,” said RLC President Terry Wilkerson. “There is no doubt that this place would look much different without Mark’s leadership and contributions.” “The RLC Foundation is deeply saddened to say goodbye to one of our strongest supporters,” said RLC Foundation CEO Kay Zibby-Damron. “Mark Kern remained actively involved on the Foundation Board of

Directors after his retirement, which is a testament to his love and passion for Rend Lake College, our community and education. Mark was instrumental in many of the Foundation’s greatest accomplishments and we will be forever grateful for his leadership and support. Our hearts are with Pat and the Kern family during this very difficult time.” Kern, as a Ewing native, was a home-grown leader who often remarked on his good fortune. “You have to be fortunate to become a community college President, and becoming one in the area in which you grew up is even more special,” he once said. He served as RLC’s president, fifth in its history, from 1991 through 2008.

Visitation will be held from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Monday, March 12, at Whittington Baptist Church. Service will be at 1 p.m. with burial immediately following at Oak Hill Cemetery. Cory Garmane, an RLC alum, will sing songs to open and close the service, and State Rep. Dave Severin, Franklin County Circuit Clerk Jim Muir, and RLC Foundation Board Member Sam Mateer are scheduled to speak. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Rend Lake College Foundation Mark S. Kern Memorial Fund to assist Rend Lake College students. A local farmer at heart, Kern got his start in college teaching at Wabash Valley College in Mt. Carmel in 1967, the same year Mt. Vernon Community College

became Rend Lake College. It was merely a year later that he returned home to start RLC’s agriculture program, for which the college has been well known over the years. Add that year to the 39 he ultimately spent with RLC,

and Kern spent 40 years of his working life in the Illinois Community College System – longer than any employee in the history of the system, according to the Illinois Community College Trustees Association at the time.

Kern later became chair of the Agriculture, Automotive and Architecture Department, commonly called Triple-A, before becoming Dean of Community Services and later Dean of Instruction. Continued on page 3

C In the news last week, Trump made good on a campaign promise and imposed tariffs on imported steel and aluminum. However, he's already stepped it back. For instance, Canada is now exempt as well as Europe and other allies like Australia. China isn't exempt, as usual. They're cheating, but what's new. The tariffs will go into effect in approximately ten days. Nearly half the GOP House members and others breathed a sigh of relief after the exemptions were reported. Already the coal industry has turned a corner. And this week, one to watch is the current race in Pennsylvania. Trump traveled to campaign for his guy Rick Saccone, in a special House election. He's running

RLC MOURNS Continued from page 1

He became RLC’s fifth president in 1991. Education was an important part of Kern’s life. He earned a Bachelor of Science Degree in Agricultural Industries at Southern I l l i n oi s Un i v e r s it y Carbondale and later a Master of Science Degree in Agricultural Economics from the University of Illinois. After graduation, he had plans to go into ag banking when the Wabash Valley job opened up, and he threw his hat in that ring. As they say, the rest is history. Kern left an indelible mark on RLC. Some highlights and accomplishments include: • Construction of the RLC Foundation Children’s Center • Renovation of the Dr. Allen Y. Baker Administration Building • Construction of the Clock Tower, the centerpiece of campus which now serves as the model for the college logo • Creation of the RLC Murphy-Wall Pinckneyville Campus, with help from the RLC Foundation and the citizens of Pinckneyville • Creation of the one-ofa-kind RLC MarketPlace in Mt. Vernon, which transformed a dying outdoor mall into a workable mix of retail stores, a restaurant, educational training facilities, classrooms and computer labs, Project CHILD, and the state’s One-Stop Center, among others • Dual credit opportunities which have become overwhelmingly popular with high school students desiring to get a head start on college credits and save in-district parents millions of dollars. • The Hitting Zone and Sports Center, now combined into The Rec • Construction of the Coal Mine Training Center

head to head with his Democratic opponent Conor Lamb. This is a state that used to be a heavy steel manufacturer. Let's see if the steel tariff helps his friend. One thing is for sure, Trump waited till the last minute to climb up on the stump in support of Saccone. On to the porn star / Trump scandal. Frankly, folks, I'm pretty sick of all the finger pointing, and I think enough is enough. Take the current Trump accuser who goes back to years ago. It's apparent this affair was consentual and let's face it, this is just another finger pointer. And no, I don't think sexual abuse is okay, and I, for one, would fight for justice when the case is real. So in the case of Stormy Daniels' alleged affair, the

Perhaps the most visible tribute to his legacy is the 22,300-square-foot Applied Science Center, which now carries his name in honor of his service. It is safe to say that this building, which houses the Agriculture Business, Agricultural Production and Mechanics, Diesel Technology and Heavy Equipment Technology, was close to the heart of the local farmboy. Kern was responsible for initiating the first Advisory Council and on-job training programs, both of which are still in existence for almost all career-technical programs. He also led the college through multiple reaccreditation visits from the Higher Learning Commission. As president and after he retired, Kern was a dedicated member of the Rend Lake College Foundation. After retirement, he was named an emeritus member of the RLC Foundation Board of Directors. Kern’s wife Pat served as CEO of that organization for many years. The Foundation awards hundreds of thousands of dollars each year in student scholarship and also supports various types of projects which advance the college. Some of his honors include: • Induction into the RLC Sports Hall of Fame class of

point is WHAT! Enough said. I find this as laughable as the finger pointing coming out of Hollywood. On to an important subject: Election Day. Primary elections will be held next Tuesday, March 20 across the state of Illinois. I encourage everyone to get out and vote.

Help Patients Rebound By Giving Blood In March, while basketball teams are fighting for the chance to be crowned champions, patients battling cancer and other illnesses are fighting for their lives. The American Red Cross is asking blood donors to help patients rebound by making a lifesaving donation this spring. Middle school basketball player Olivia Stoy received blood and platelet transfusions during treatment for T lymphoblastic lymphoma. With the help of blood and platelet donations, the 14- year-old has returned to the basketball court and, more importantly, beat cancer. “We are so thankful that the blood products were available to Olivia for the almost two years of her treatment. They have made it possible for Olivia to regain her strength and get back to doing the activities she loves,” said Megan Stoy, Olivia’s mother. Donors of all blood types are needed to help ensure that the Red Cross can collect more than 13,000 blood and platelet donations needed every day for patients like Olivia. Giving blood takes less time than it takes to watch

a single basketball game. 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). Upcoming blood donation opportunities are listed below.

Direct Cremation $ Starting at

Many American Indian tribes almost lost their culture by the 1960s because of 19th- and early 20th-century U.S government rules. American Indians could be removed from their land, resettled on reservations and even have their children sent to special boarding schools to be taught a new way of life. The children were punished if they continued to practice their ceremonies or speak their native language. Children from the Potawatomi tribe went to either a boys' or girls' boarding school, where they learned English and a trade. The American Indian Religious Freedom Act passed in the 1970s led to the end of the boarding schools and the beginning

of efforts to bring back the Indian culture. A recent auction sold a toy Indian cradle decorated with beads and silver buttons, but holding a European porcelain-headed doll. It was made by Millie R. Hall, who lived at a Potawatomi boarding school in 1900, an important historic source for a handmade doll. It sold for $11,070. *** Q: I'd like to know the value of a violin that is about 100 years old. The inscription inside reads "Copy of Antonius Stradivarius, made in Czechoslovakia." What is it worth? A: Antonio Stradivari (1644-1737) made violins, violas, cellos and other stringed instruments at his workshop in Cremona, Italy. Fewer than 600 of the

Jealousy Disrupts Doggie Household

DEAR PAW'S CORNER: My two dogs, "Jake" and "Albie," are normally real sweethearts. But over the past few months they have been increasingly nasty to one another. Jake is five years older than Albie, who the shelter told me is about four years old. If Albie sees Jake lying in the sunny corner of the kitchen, he growls and barks. Jake will growl and bark right back.

A: You should polish your brass tea set with a commercial brass polish. If it's heavily tarnished or corroded, take it to a professional. Some brass has been lacquered to prevent tarnish and should not be p o l i s h e d . Po l i s h i n g damages the lacquer. If the lacquer is peeling, you should go to a professional restorer. ***

Last week they came very close to fighting. What can I do to stop this once and for all? — Gerry in Las Cruces, New Mexico DEAR GERRY: Dust off your dog-training manual — you're going to need it. Basic commands like "sit," "stay," quiet" and "leave it" are very helpful in defusing a situation between two housemate dogs. Sometimes dogs exhibit jealous behavior for no apparent reason; other times something has changed in the household, and therefore the overall dynamic — a new roommate, new pet or new baby; shifting the furniture around; or even decorating for the holidays. Whatever the cause, you must re-establish order. Your dogs need

to know that no matter what else has changed, you're still head of the house. Make sure that you show no favoritism. When it's time for treats, both dogs get treats (and only if they're both sitting calmly). When one is curled up in his doggie bed, the other should be, too. Take them for longer walks to burn off more energy, and work with them on basic commands. What if this doesn't stop their behavior? You will need to separate them into different rooms if a verbal "leave it" command doesn't work. If their behavior worsens, contact a pet trainer. © 2017 King Features Synd., Inc.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You could have some problems with doubters who don’t share your enthusiasm for that new project you’re supporting. But use the facts to win them over to your side. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Someone is impressed by how you managed to get your case to the right people, despite attempts to keep you on the outside looking in. Expect to hear more about this. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Good for you -- your gift for seeing both sides of a dispute helps cool down a potentially explosive workplace situation. Some family-related tensions also begin to ease. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Your determination to prove yourself is put to the test by midweek. Counting all the positive factors you have going for you will help you get over your selfdoubt. Good luck. LEO (July 23 to August 22) Several co-workers are still determined to resist coming over to your side. But don’t let that stop you from presenting your proposal to the people who count. Stay the course. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) You might prefer to be taken on faith and not have to prove yourself. But the truth is, you need to offer more facts if you hope to persuade people to accept what you say. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) A family situation takes an unwelcome turn. While others might

be looking around for answers, you’ll soon sort it all out logically, and the matter will be resolved. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Someone might try to create doubt about your reliability for his or her own agenda. But your reputation and your colleagues’ long-standing faith in you saves the day. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) An unexpected change of plans forces you to come up with an alternative by the end of the week. Look for colleagues to offer valuable suggestions. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Nothing upsets the Goat as much as broken promises. But before you vent your anger, consider that this could ultimately prove to be a blessing in disguise. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) An old workplace problem you thought you had solved for good resurfaces. But this time, co-workers will take a more active role in helping you deal with it. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Be careful not to be misled by a negative reaction to one of your more important projects. If you believe in it, then it has worth and is, therefore, worth staying with.

EAGLE LIFE

3:7) Keys speak of authority. Jesus, the prophesied Messiah, came through the lineage of King David and, one day, will be seated on the throne of David in the city of David. He is “holy and true” which are attributes of deity. In ancient times when athletes won a victor’s crown they were given the key to the city. Jesus won the victory when he died on the cross for the sins of the world and arose victorious over death, hell, and the grave. He has the key of David and gives that key to believers who overcome. (Matthew 16:1619; Mark 16: 17-18) THREE KEYS TO AN OPEN DOOR. Jesus revealed why he set before this church an open door. Key one: “For you have a little strength.” (Revelation 3:8) The “little strength” was not an indication of spiritual infirmity or weakness, but of fewness in number. It was a

The Open Door

PHILADELPHIA was one of the seven churches of Asia that John was instructed to write a letter to in the book of Revelation. Philadelphia was one of two churches of whom Jesus had no condemnation for. Interestingly, only the church of Philadelphia and Smyrna still exist today. The citizens of Philadelphia had their city and homes destroyed many times by earthquakes, but they persisted. Philadelphia means brotherly love. Jesus publicly declared his love for this church. THE KEY OF DAVID. Keys are vital to lock and unlock doors. Jesus has the key of David. “He opens, and no man shuts and shuts, and no man opens.” (Revelation

Have you ever felt that things have been denied you? Perhaps your dreams, desires, hopes, and opportunities for influence seem to be shut up tight, locked, barred, and deadbolted. I have good news for you. There is one who has the key of David, he “opens and no one can shut; he shuts, and no one can open.” His name is Jesus and he made this promise to the church of Philadelphia about 2,000 years ago. “See, I have set before you an open door.” (Revelation 3:7-8) Apply these characteristics of the church of Philadelphia and God will set before you an open door. THE CHURCH OF

2. From Matthew 4, how many days and nights did Jesus fast before his temptation(s) by Satan? 3, 12, 40, 70 3. Who said, "The Lord gave, and the Lord hath taken away"? Satan, 1. Is the Book of 2 Adam, Job, Haman 4. From Proverbs 6, Peter in Old or New what is held up as an Testament or neither?

small church. God delights to manifest his power through the little. Little David killed a giant; little Gideon led a ragtag band of 300 to defeat the army of the Midianites; Jesus used a little lad’s lunch to feed a multitude of over 5,000 people. God will open a door of influence to use people with short arms to reach out to the hungry, hurting, and hopeless. Key two: Keep his Word. (Revelation 3:8) Be obedient to Jesus and His Word. Jesus said, “You are my friends if you do whatever I say.” (John 15:14) A young Christian was asked by his pastor how he became such a mature believer in such a short time. He held up his

red-letter Bible and said, “I just read the red and do the red.” Key three: “Don’t say ‘No’ to Jesus.” (Revelation 3:8) I like this translation from the NIV. The NKJV says, “You have not denied my name.” I can’t imagine saying “no” to Jesus. But multitudes say no to Jesus and deny his name. If you don’t say “no” to Jesus, he will set before you an open door. THE BLESSINGS OF AN OPEN DOOR. The rewards of keeping Jesus’ words are out of this world. Not only will you be able to be an influencer for the kingdom of God, but you have his promise of escaping the judgement of God that’s to fall on the unrepen-

tive inhabitants of the earth. (Revelation 3:1012) God will make you a “pillar” in his temple and have his new name written on you — signifying you belong to him and he belongs to you. (Song of Solomon 6:3) What a heavenly and beautiful tattoo you will wear. An open door begins by opening your heart's door to Jesus. “Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If any man hears my voice and opens unto me, I will come into him and sup with him and he with me.’ (Revelation 3:20) Shalom, Cliff Sanders Eagle Life Ministries eagleslife8@gmail.com
