Federal money could bolster election security

By JIM TURNERThe News Service of Florida

TALLAHASSEE — Florida’s top elections official Thursday expressed confidence, but not “overconfidence,” about this year’s elections as

legislators accepted $19.2 mil-lion from the federal govern-ment to further secure voting systems that were targeted by Russian hackers in 2016.

Secretary of State Ken Detzner told members of the Joint Legislative Budget Commission, who voted unan-imously to accept the federal money, that his

agency is committed to having secure elections.“We are in no way overconfident,” Detzner

said. “This is a day-to-day effort. It requires the participation and passion of all the supervisors, law enforcement, our federal partners and the Division of Elections.”

Detzner described hackers’ failure to breach election systems in 2016 as a “success story”

What was once presented as an unavoidable choice between a one-cent sales tax and higher proper-ty taxes — “a rock and a hard place,” as Columbia County Commissioner Ron Williams put it after a town hall meeting earlier this week — is no longer a cer-tainty.

The board previously took the position that it’s one or the other to pay for a new $28 million jail, but Commissioner Rusty DePratter on Thursday said raising taxes isn’t necessary thanks to economic growth and money elsewhere in

the budget — an idea first raised in public by County Commission District 4 can-didate Toby Witt two days prior.

Commissioner Everett Phillips stood with DePratter against hiking ad valorem property taxes to pay for the jail, even if the sales tax fails to pass by voter referendum in August, while commission-ers Bucky Nash and Tim Murphy were “intrigued” by DePratter’s points.

“The county’s growing,” DePratter said.

The annual debt service for the jail would will be about $2.7 million, County Manager Ben Scott has pre-viously said.

The sales tax can’t direct-ly go to the jail, but it’s expected to generate $7.7 million for road projects, freeing up other money for the facility.

A millage rate of 8.87 would bring revenue up by $3,313,448, according to a presentation from Scott.

But even if the rate stayed at 8.015, revenue would still increase by $1,132,508 due to higher property values.

DePratter said he counted enough cash flow already to pay for the jail and provid-ed notes listing the sourc-es he found. For instance, the county expects an addi-tional $500,000 in fuel tax money from the upcoming Love’s truck stop, while

the Target distribution cen-ter’s tax incentive will soon expire, bringing another $350,000 to the county, DePratter said.

Scott went back and forth with DePratter over the numbers, saying some were not accurate. For instance, DePratter count-ed the money from Target in addition to cash allocated to the abandoned plan to build a new administration building — but they are one and the same.

Scott said there was some truth to DePratter’s asser-tion that the county is tak-ing in more money without increasing taxes, but that’s

Tax increase no longer inevitable

for Florida.“No breaches occurred

in the state data system, and the Florida voter regis-tration system was secure, is secure, and will remain secure during the 2018 elec-tion,” Detzner told the joint legislative panel, which is comprised of House and Senate members.

Detzner told lawmakers that “time is of the essence” in using the federal money, with the Aug. 28 primary elections just over a month away. But he later told reporters that county super-visors should know how to use the money to secure their elections.

“There’s plenty of time to implement these new upgrades to any kind of soft-ware or hardware or fire-walls,” Detzner said.

Two attempts to breach Florida elections systems were noted as part of an indictment issued last Friday by Special Counsel Robert Mueller against 12 Russian intelligence officers for hacking Democrats during the 2016 election.

In one instance, the co-conspirators were accused of visiting websites of unidentified counties in Georgia, Iowa and Florida on Oct. 28, 2016 in search of “vulnerabilities.”

Also, the indictment alleged that in November 2016, before the presiden-tial election, a “spear phish-ing” expedition — an effort to gain access to sensitive information through imbed-ded malware — targeted more than 100 elections accounts across Florida.

Speaking on the U.S.

Senate floor on Wednesday, Florida Republican Marco Rubio called on Congress to pass legislation that would impose a criminal penalty of up to $1 million or up to 20 years in prison for “any for-eign actor seeking to disrupt our elections.”

“Who among us would say that if Russia interferes in 2018, or any year for that matter, they shouldn’t be pun-ished?” Rubio said in support of his proposed Defending Elections from Threats

by Establishing Redlines (DETER) Act. “And who among us would say that if we had the opportunity to put into law strong consequences for interference that could deter such an attack, we wouldn’t want to do it? And so that’s why I hope that no matter how you may feel about the other things that are going on, the Senate can come together and work together to pass this law, because other-wise we are leaving our nation vulnerable.”

The state Division of Elections applied for the fed-eral election security fund-ing on May 30. The money, in part, will cover the cost of five cyber-security spe-cialists and voter education. Four of the cyber-security specialists have already started working for the state,

Also, county elections supervisors will be able

to use the money for such things as software security upgrades and improving the safety of buildings in which election equipment is stored or used.

All 67 counties have applied for the grant fund-ing, which will be allocat-ed based on a formula that includes population and funding requests. Each county will start with a base-line distribution of $50,000.

Detzner said he doesn’t see a justification for local officials to use the money to hire their own cyber-secu-rity specialists, as it would duplicate a service available from the state.

Another concern from some supervisors and the League of Women Voters of Florida is a requirement that each county use the alloca-tions by the Nov. 6 General Election.

Leon County Supervisor of Elections Mark Earley expressed concern money could be spent in a “reck-less way” if supervisors are put into a “use it or lose it” situation.

“Our security posture is actually very good, but there are always improve-ments that could be made. We are striving to get the best security posture pos-sible,” Earley said. “There are always more elections, and we’ll be learning lessons from this election that can be applied to the next elec-tion for hardening up our systems. Those funds would be very helpful in that case.”

Detzner said counties returning unused money to the state is a condition of the federal allocation. Detzner also rejected an assertion that county officials will spend the money simply to beat the general election deadline.

it became visibly apparent that pile of clothes had been doused with the lighter fluid.

Henry kept arguing with his girlfriend, who was standing in the yard with him, “though he was ordered not to,” according to the report.

Henry told the officer, “she cheated on me, so her and her things got to go,” the report states.

Henry admitted to dous-ing the pile of clothing with lighter fluid because he was upset about the the woman cheating on him, but main-tained he “was not actually

going to light it on fire,” according to the report.

The woman said she tried to end the relationship with Henry because she was interested in someone else.

Henry was understand-ing at first, she said. Then the two got into a verbal argument, causing him to throw the woman and her children’s possessions into the yard.

Henry then grabbed a can of lighter fluid and threat-ened to burn the clothes, prompting the woman to call law enforcement, she told an officer.

While the officer was grabbing paperwork from his car, Henry accused the woman of causing him to spill the lighter fluid by

punching him in the hand and face, according to the report.

None of the multiple wit-nesses standing around saw such an attack take place. Henry said he “wasn’t sure if anyone actually saw her punch him,” the report states.

A witness told the offi-cer she heard Henry cuss-ing and threatening to set everything on fire, accord-ing to the report. Henry then began pouring light-er fluid on his girlfriend’s children’s belongings, the witness said.

The witness said she tried to stop Henry, who replied that “he didn’t care if it was the kids’ things, he was still going to set it

on fire.”Henry threatened to “set

the whole apartment on fire,” the witness said.

As Henry was being prepared for transport to Columbia County Detention Facility on a property dam-age charge, an officer escorted the girlfriend back to the apartment to retrieve the rest of her things.

While on the ride to jail, Henry was allowed to call his brother.

During the phone call, and within earshot of the arresting officer, Henry said once more that he threw lighter fluid on the woman’s clothes because she cheated on him.

Rain a factor in I-75 crashBy STEVE [email protected]

Rainy conditions contrib-uted to an accident on I-75 mid-afternoon on Thursday that critically injured a Georgia woman.

According to a Florida Highway Patrol press release, Atria Marshall, 36, of Decatur, Ga., was struck by 1998 a Honda Civic, driven by Dylan Robaitaille, 26, of Gainesville, in the southbound lane near mile marker 415, one mile north of the interchange with U.S. 441. At the time, Marshall had been driving south but stopped her vehicle to assist the occupants of a 2017 Kia, which having been involved in a separate crash shortly before, had come to

rest in the center lane. Due to a sudden down-

pour, Robitaille was unable to see the Kia in front of him, and as a result sideswiped both it and Marshall, who came to rest behind the Kia in the middle lane. Neither Robitaille nor his passenger, Chelsea Kamm, 31, of New Orleans, La. were injured.

The driver of the Kia, Katina Felder, 45, of Lithonia, Ga., sustained minor inju-ries, and Felder, Robaitaille and Kamm were all wearing seatbelts at the time.

Felder and Marshall were transported to UF Health Shands in Gainesville. As of Thursday evening no charges had been filed, and alcohol was not a factor, FHP said.

only half the story. The county’s costs — employee pay, fuel and electricity, to name a few — go up, too.

“Yes, there is new money and the new money is being eaten by expenses,” Scott said.

DePratter and Phillips voted against raising the tentative millage rate from 8.015 mills to 8.87 mills. They were outvoted by the rest of the board, but the plan is to roll back the rate if the sales tax passes. Once a preliminary millage rate is set it can be lowered but not raised.

Even if the sales tax ref-

erendum fails, Nash and Murphy indicated they were open to siding with DePratter against keeping the higher rate.

“I’m not for increasing the millage rate, but I do want these numbers to apply,” Nash said, pointing at DePratter’s notes.

Murphy said DePratter’s argument was compelling enough to warrant further research.

“Rusty brought good points,” Murphy said.

Witt told commissioners during the public comment portion of the meeting to keep crunching the numbers.

“I believe the revenue is there,” Witt said. “So I encourage you to keep going down this road.”

T he dramatic Thai cave rescue of that teen soccer team: It may turn out to be the

most involved, stirring, emotional single event the world sees in 2018. Maybe even this decade. It was probably some of the best coverage of a dramatic, real-life, cliff-hanging event that kept the world holding its breath for 19 days! I followed the news closely, my attention hanging on the crisis as it unfolded: The team was missing 11 days before they were found in the cave, 2 ½ miles into the cavern, and about half a mile down, with several flood-ed passages blocking their escape. More than 100 divers risked their lives for days during the 8-day rescue process, with one of these heroes losing his life in the dark water.

In the days that have passed, we can begin to appreciate the long view. The experts have admitted that they expected a tragic ending, but the world came together with help, concern, and prayers. In ret-ro-vision, “in the light of day” (pun intended), the true meaning of this event begins to clear up. So many of us set aside our everyday concerns and priorities, so we could keep up with news clips and press confer-ences. Looking back, I remember all the powerful feelings and emo-tions I felt. I felt the high danger the team and their coach must have felt. I felt some of the fears, as well as the hopes of all, as if they were next door neighbors, not halfway around the world. I was awed by the courage and positive attitudes and actions the boys and their coach accomplished, surviving for those long dark days with minimal food, and what little fresh drinkable water seeped through the cave walls. The

rescuers performed some of the most skilled and dangerous cave diving the world has ever seen, always working against the clock and the danger, as monsoon rains slowly made the rescue more dan-gerous.

Like every experience or every situation in life, we’re presented with challenging situations and events, usually when we least expect them. I think it’s not what happens to you in life; but what you do to respond to it. It’s not that you fall down, but how you get back up. What lessons and principles can we learn from the Thai cave rescues? I’m amazed at the courage that

the boys and their coach showed throughout the ordeal, and the courage and determination that the divers, rescue teams, volunteers, and the parents showed all along. I see the world coming together as one caring team, in spite of any cultural, national, or religious dif-ferences. The coach had studied in a Buddhist monastery, and had developed faith, hope, and strength, which he shared with the boys. Can you imagine being doctors, who risked their lives cave diving, to bring first responder care to the trapped team? Did you feel some of those claustrophobic feelings, or fears of drowning, along with them? Did you imagine how it would be not seeing daylight, only cave dark-ness, during the 19 days before all 13 were successfully rescued?

We can learn something from everything that happens to us in life; the situations that life presents us with, and the events we face every day. Let’s take full advantage of this opportunity. Looking back, what have you learned or grown from, as you lived through this incredible story? Please take a moment or two to reflect and appreciate how we can all be a little better as a result of this opportunity that life has presented us with. What’s your “take-away”? How has it touched you? Please share your feelings or ideas. You can call me, write me, or Email me with your comments you’d like to share with all of us … anonymously if you want.

‘Intriguing’T hat was the word commissioners

Bucky Nash and Tim Murphy both used Thursday to describe a plan

by fellow commissioner Rusty DePratter to build a new jail without raising taxes.

To this point, county residents had been told they faced a stark choice: either approve a 1-cent sales tax hike on the August 28 ballot, or see commissioners raise property taxes to make up the differ-ence.

There was no other option — not if we wanted a new jail, which at this point looks more like a necessity than a preference.

Then we heard a different voice, that of District 4 commission candidate Toby Witt. At a town hall meeting on Tuesday, Witt floated the idea of doing neither — and still finding money in the county budget to pay for the jail.

DePratter seconded the informal motion at the town hall, then Witt’s opponent, District 4 incumbent Everett Phillips, got on board at Thursday’s commission meet-ing.

On a 3-2 vote, the motion to raise the pre-liminary property tax rate passed anyway — as per the original plan, with the under-standing the increase would be rolled back should voters OK the sales tax increase next month. (Once the preliminary rate is set, it can be lowered but not raised.)

But Nash and Murphy, who both wanted to study DePratter’s numbers more close-ly before committing, seemed genuinely intrigued by the idea of rolling back the millage either way, as each said.

We are too.If this train’s headed where we hope, and

there’s a way to have our new jail without further burdening local taxpayers, we are on board as well.

Lessons from Thai cave rescue

We understand that most of our readers — like most Americans — probably

aren’t following news out of Paraguay. But there is a development out of the landlocked South American country that should give all of us good cheer and that highlights the importance of American engagement in global health initiatives.

Last month, Paraguay announced that it eliminated malaria, a disease spread by mosquitoes and that once ravaged the United States. This news marks Paraguay as the first nation in the Americas to eradicate the deadly disease within its bor-ders since Cuba did so in 1971.

Paraguay didn’t win this fight alone. The World Health Organization and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have lent assistance for years, something both organizations do around the globe.

In fact, America’s fight with malaria dates back more than a century, from at least the time U.S. military forces began being stationed regularly in Cuba after it became an American protectorate following the Spanish-American War in 1898. The fight against malaria soon came home as the military joined with 13 states

where the disease was then endemic.When the U.S. stood up the CDC

in Atlanta 72 years ago this month, under the name Communicable Disease Center, malaria control was its primary target.

By 1951, after spraying millions of homes throughout the South, malaria was eradicated in the U.S.

Ever since, the CDC’s anti-malar-ia program has focused on helping

fight the disease’s spread overseas.Paraguay’s success is partic-

ularly noteworthy because the disease is surging elsewhere in the Americas. According to the latest World Malaria Report, issued in November, nine nations in the Americas saw malaria cases jump by 20 percent or more in 2016. That’s no small matter for a disease

that killed approximately 445,000 people worldwide that year — many of them children.

The lesson we draw from Paraguay’s success is that it may seem hopeless at times, but it is actually possible to make headway against diseases that have long vexed vulnerable populations. And that lesson is particularly import to ingrain in our thinking because as the world shrinks with increased global travel, diseases can more easily jump borders and even regions. Asian bird flu, swine flu and Ebola are just a few that have put Americans at risk.

The world is getting smaller. Diseases are getting more mobile, and our best protection remains the enormous efforts undertaken by agencies like the CDC, our nation’s research universities and, yes, inter-national partners who engage these diseases in remote locales.

It’s valuable, if expensive and often painstakingly slow, work. But in the end, it can also be successful. Thank you, Paraguay, for remind-ing us that it is possible to imagine a world free of some of the most deadly diseases.

It is possible to eradicate malaria

Around ten years ago Dan Kimball wrote a book titled “They Like Jesus But Not The Church.” He made some good points about the disconnect between what the church is and the public’s perception of what they think it should be. As I see it, the rea-son for the disconnect is people are flawed.

The church is made up of people who are flawed. I know because I am one of them. Each of us in the church is on a spiritual journey and are at dif ferent levels of maturity in Christ mak-ing the church an imper-fect work in progress. We make mistakes while learning to do better.

Then there are those wolves in sheep’s cloth-ing who have committed atrocities and brought dishonor on the name of Christ and the work

of the church. Things have been done that are inexcusable and received the just condemnation of a watching public. But these are the exception and not the rule.

But the same is true of the public’s perspec-tive of the church; it’s flawed. Take the title of Kimball’s book, “They Like Jesus But Not The Church.” If one claims to like Jesus you would think they would like

what Jesus likes and fol-low His example.

This may surprise some, but Jesus Himself introduced the idea of “church”. He told Peter and the other eleven, “you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build My church,” Matthew 16:18. This is the first mention of the church in Scripture.

In his letter to the Ephesians Paul exhort-ed, “Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself up for her,” Ephesians 5:25. Jesus founded the church, loved the church and ultimately died to estab-lish the church. That should at least rate a “like and share” if you

like Jesus.Those who would be

the first to misquote Jesus saying, “Do not judge so that you will not be judged,” are the first to judge the church and say things about it that in most instances they know nothing about. After all, they are admit-tedly on the outside looking in.

Then there are those who say they dislike organized religion. What does that even mean? I don’t watch a lot of sports, but when I do I like watching organized sports. Does it mean they would prefer disor-ganized religion, or some level of disorganization

They like Jesus - church, not so much CHRISTIAN CONCEPTS

Things have been done that are inexcusable and received the just

condemnation of a watching public.

Take a quick look and count how many keys are in your pocket or purse. Don’t we take these funny looking little things for granted? That is, until we need one and can’t find it! Even the name of a “key” is synonymous with how important they can be: crucial, important, sig-nificant, vital, strategic, basic, central, major, and essential, just to name a few! In other words, it is usually “key” that we find our “keys.” Now look at your keys and think about what they do for you. The job of a key is to give us access to something that is pro-tected or limited only to designated people. If we have a key, we have been granted access to what that key protects. For example, my key ring

includes a key to my car, house, of fice, post of fice box, my husband’s truck, and a safe deposit box. With each key, I have been granted access to all these places.

I bring this up because I read something recent-ly in scripture that stuck in my mind about keys. Isaiah 33:5-6 has this to say:

“The Lord is exalted, for He dwells on high;

He will fill Zion with justice and righteous-

ness. He will be the sure

foundation for your times,A rich store of salvation

and wisdom and knowl-edge;

The fear of the Lord is the key to this treasure.”

In these verses, I see a list of coveted, protected items: a sure foundation for our times, a rich store of salvation, a rich store of wisdom, and a rich store of knowledge. Who doesn’t want access to a sure foundation, especial-ly in our times? Apart from God’s of fer of a sure foundation, the best we can do is recall the “good old days” which had its own share of problems! Secondly, salvation is the

question that every reli-gion attempts to answer and one we have already wrestled with or will even-tually. Acts 16:30 records the jailer asking Paul and Silas the question “What must I do to be saved?” Countless people are still asking the same question every day. Access to this rich store is indeed price-less.

The rich stores of wis-dom and knowledge are worthy pursuits as well in order to be successful and live rich, full lives. We press our kids to read and learn voraciously in order to gain knowledge and become wise. Studies

What is the key to finding our ‘keys?’The job of a key is to give us access to something that is protected or limited

only to designated people.

HEART MATTERS

Jesus blesses the children

Matthew 19:13-15

After Jesus got through answering the Pharisees questions about divorce and the disciple’s moment of truth about marriage, Matthew writes that people started bringing children to Jesus.

Can you imagine the crowd that was waiting for Jesus to get through with his disciples so that the people with children in their arms standing by their side could bring their children to Jesus so that he could lay his hands on them and bless them?

That is where we find ourselves today in Matthew 19:13-15. The reason why the children were brought to Jesus was so that he could lay his hands on them and bless them. The crowds have heard Jesus’ sermons, listened to him answer questions, watched him heal people, raise people from the dead, why go to the local rabbi when he is here in our midst? It was customary to bring children to the rabbi so that he could lay his hand on the children and pray for God’s blessing and pro-tection over them.

We read in Genesis 48 where Joseph brings his two sons to Jacob so that he could bless them before he passes away. In the New Testament after Jesus’ resurrection and ascension we read how the early Church prayed and laid hands on Barnabas and Paul before they went on their first missionary journey.

So for parents to bring their children to Jesus so that he could lay his hands on them to bless them was their priority for the day. Can you imagine placing your child, maybe your infant in the hands of the living God through whom the world was made?

That’s what they did! The world was made through him and the world didn’t know him. (John 1:10) For some reason we read that the disciples were hin-dering these people from bringing their children, their infants to Jesus so that he could touch and bless them. Jesus was not having any of this.

His response to his dis-ciples was let them come and don’t hinder them. I do believe that God wants people to come to Jesus but as a disciple of his, I must ask myself this ques-tion: Is there something in my life that hinders others from coming to Jesus?

From time to time I must ask the Lord to search my heart to see if there is any-thing in my life that is pre-venting others from com-ing to faith in him. Here is a sad truth as I reflect back on my life, I realize that I have not always lived for Jesus.

The good news is that God is faithful and just to keep on cleansing me from all unrighteousness as I agree with him concern-ing my sin. Confession is good for the soul but repentance is better.

God the Father is calling, is inviting everyone every-where to come to Jesus. Jesus says even in this pas-sage “let them come, don’t hold them back.”

Come to Jesus today and live!

they would be comfortable with?Organized religion was corrupt

and needed to make some changes in Jesus’ day. Hypocrisy was rife from the leadership down. But it did not stop Jesus practicing what He preached and engaging those who were leading God’s people astray.

“And He came to Nazareth, where He had been brought up; and as was His custom, He entered the syna-gogue on the Sabbath,” Luke 4:16. It seems Jesus made it His practice to be in His place of worship on His day of worship.

How do you like Him now?

suggest those who continue learning later in life are less likely to lose brain function. In fact, there doesn’t seem to be any downside to having access to a rich store of wisdom or knowledge, but we could be pounding on the door of these rich stores and still be denied access… without the key.

The Bible clearly identifies the key to this foundation and these rich stores: the fear of the Lord. This fear is defined as a reverence or awe; a recognition of His place and our place. Translated into our daily life, this would mean that we have a clear understanding of who

God is and what we are. It also means when God speaks, we don’t keep doing our own thing, shrug our shoulders and say, “Oh well, God understands me.” It means we listen up with fear and trembling. That fear gives us the KEY, the access to these destinations, and is available to “whosoever will.”

Dolphins anthem punishment includes suspensionsBy ROB MAADDI Associated Press

Miami Dolphins players who protest on the field during the national anthem could be suspended for up to four games under a team policy issued this week.

The “Proper Anthem Conduct” section is just one sentence in a nine-page discipline document pro-vided to The Associated Press by a person familiar with the policy who insisted on anonymity because the document is not public. It classifies anthem pro-tests under a large list of “conduct detrimental to the club,” all of which could lead to a paid or unpaid suspension, a fine or both.

The Dolphins said in a statement: “The NFL required each team to submit their rules regard-ing the anthem before their players reported to training camp. We will address this issue once the season starts. All options are still open.”

Miami can choose not to issue any suspensions nor fine any player who protests the anthem. Some of the other “violations” listed under “conduct detri-mental to the club” include drug use or possession, gambling, breaking curfew and riding motorcycles as a driver or passenger from the start of camp until

‘Noles RB Akers ready for Taggart’s up-tempo offenseAssociated Press

Florida State running back Cam Akers is thrilled about playing in new coach Willie Taggart’s up-tem-po, no-huddle spread offense this season.

As a freshman last season, Akers averaged 5.3 yards a carry and ran for more than 1,000 yards rushing to go with seven touchdowns. He says the new offense allows him to run in more space with more seams, which should translate into more opportuni-ties to break big plays.

Defensive end Brian Burns describes Akers as a “monster” in the weight room and on the field and expects him to have a huge season.

Florida State announced in December that Taggart, who served as offensive coordinator at Oregon, would replace Jimbo Fisher as coach. Burns says Taggart has brought a “no excuses” attitude to the team and has been holding players accountable for their actions.

The Seminoles were last in the league in offense last season and Taggart is looking forward to “changing that narrative” and winning multiple championships.

the last game of the season.The team’s rookies reported

on Wednesday.Dolphins veteran receiver

Kenny Stills took a knee with a hand on his heart during the anthem throughout last season. Defensive tackle Jordan Phillips put his arm around Stills before one game. Two other players who knelt — safety Michael Thomas and tight end Julius Thomas — are no longer with the team.

Defensive end Robert Quinn, who raised his fist during the anthem while with the Rams, is now with the Dolphins.

Miami’s anthem policy comes after the NFL decided in May that teams would be fined if players didn’t stand during “The Star-Spangled Banner” while on the field. The league left it up to teams on how to punish players. None of the team policies have been made public.

Jets acting owner Christopher Johnson said shortly after the league announced its policy that he will not punish his players for any peaceful protests — and would pay any potential fines incurred by the team as a result of his players’ actions.

The NFL rule forbids players

from sitting or taking a knee if they are on the field or sidelines during the national anthem, but allows them to stay in the locker room if they wish. The new league rules were challenged this month in a grievance by the players union.

The NFL declined to com-ment.

“Players who are on the field during the Anthem performance must stand and show respect for the flag and the Anthem,” says the 16th and final bullet point on Miami’s list of conduct considered detrimental, below disparaging teammates, coach-es or officials including NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell.

The NFLPA said earlier this month that the NFL policy, which the league imposed with-out consultation with the play-ers union, is inconsistent with the collective bargaining agree-ment and infringes on player rights. The filing will be heard by an independent arbitrator, an NFLPA spokesman said.

When the league announced the policy, Goodell called it a com-promise aimed at putting the focus back on football after a tumultuous year in which television ratings dipped nearly 10 percent.

The NFL started requiring play-ers to be on the field for the anthem in 2009 — the year it signed a mar-keting deal with the military.

DEAR ABBY: I am tired of taking a backseat to my boyfriend’s video game addiction. He comes home from work, sits on the couch and gets lost in his video games. It has gotten to the point where he barely speaks to me or even looks up from his game.

I know he chats with a lot of people, both male and female, on these games. I suspect he has inappropriate conversations that he feels are harmless because he won’t meet these people in person.

Constantly being ignored is hurting my feelings. He never responds to my texts anymore because he’s so busy on his game. I’m start-ing to feel resentful, lone-ly and very angry. Please advise me on what to do. -- ANGRY IN OKLAHOMA

DEAR ANGRY: Your boyfriend may or may not be a video game addict. If his conversations online are “inappropriate,” he may be playing more than one kind of “game.” If he feels that those conversations are harmless, he is mistaken because what he is doing isn’t healthy for you or the relationship.

My advice? Give him an ultimatum: Modify his behavior or else, and if he refuses, end the romance before he damages your self-esteem. Being ignored has been known to do that. Trust me.

DEAR ABBY: We are having a struggle in our fam-ily, and I’m unsure how to handle it. Three years ago, our adult nephew, “Connor,” underwent hormone thera-py, counseling and transgen-der surgery. She is now our

niece “Cathy.” The transfor-mation was successful, and Cathy is happier than we’ve ever seen her. We loved Connor, and nothing has changed in our relationship with Cathy. She has visited us numerous times, and we have reciprocated.

The problem is Cathy’s sister, “Amy.” Amy has disowned Cathy. She says Connor “died to her” when he underwent the gender reassignment.

Not only is it heartbreak-ing for the whole family, but I’m finding it increasingly difficult to maintain a rela-tionship with Amy because of her rigid attitude. She boycotts family reunions and celebrations if Cathy will be present, even though fam-ily members have traveled from across the country to attend.

Amy is now expecting a baby, and I’m not feeling very celebratory toward her. Please advise. -- VERY SAD AUNT IN WISCONSIN

DEAR AUNT: From what you have written, it appears that by distancing herself from Cathy, Amy is isolating herself from the family. I understand that you may not wish to attend her baby shower, but if you don’t, it would be nice to send something for the child. Amy may come around one day, so keep the

door open.DEAR ABBY: I am a

female and my male friend, “Sam,” is recently engaged to be married. I talk to him daily and invite him out to dinner sometimes.

Sam’s fiancee, “Felicia,” has expressed to both of us that she’s uncomfortable with our relationship. She asked us to set “boundar-ies,” but I feel Sam is my friend and friends shouldn’t have boundaries. When I asked him out to dinner against her wishes, she became irate. Do you think I’m disrespecting their rela-tionship? What should I do? -- FOREVER FRIEND IN CHICAGO

DEAR FRIEND: It is a mistake not to recognize that Sam’s status has changed. If you value your friendship with him, you must start respecting the fact that he’s now engaged and do as his fiancee has requested -- set some boundaries. If you can-not do that, you can kiss your friendship with Sam goodbye.

DEAR ABBY: Five years ago, someone I thought was my best friend betrayed me. I had developed a relationship with a married mutual friend. My best friend felt it was her “right and duty” to out us to our spouses. The affair ended and both of our marriages survived, but our friendship did not.

She has now tried to con-tact me wanting to be friends again. While I do miss her friendship, she did not have the right to do what she did, and she has never acknowl-edged that what she did was wrong. Should I step up and be the bigger person and accept her friend request or

ignore it? -- AT A LOSS IN THE MIDWEST

DEAR AT A LOSS: Being self-protective won’t make you a smaller person, only a safer one. If you would like to wel-come back into your life a per-son who betrayed your confi-dence -- by all means open the door. I sure wouldn’t, but then again, I’m not you.

DEAR ABBY: I have a boyfriend (18) who is a dreamer. He doesn’t really consider reality. At 16, I am a realist. I love him to death and we are very happy, but I often come off rude when I give him reality checks when he’s trying to be romantic and sweet.

I love that he’s romantic, but I’m afraid of his romantic ideas because I know they are too good to be true. Then again, I’m afraid of him not being romantic and losing himself. How do I learn to accept his love as love and not as a threat? How do I not come off rude when I feel he’s not being realistic? Please help me, because I don’t want to lose him. -- ROMANCE DILEMMA

DEAR DILEMMA: Because you’re a realist, allow me to point something out. There’s a saying, “A fish and a zebra may fall in love, but they can’t live together.” You may not want to lose your boyfriend, but the odds of this romance becoming something permanent aren’t great because you think so differently. For the time being, when he’s waxing poet-ic about his dreams for the future, keep your lips firmly sealed instead of shooting him down.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Don’t leave anything to chance. Cover your back and take care of important business yourself. Speak up and protect your right to do as you please, but be willing to admit and answer for the mistakes you make as well. ★★★

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Control your emotions and the way you respond to what’s going on around you or between you and someone else. Be willing to listen and to resolve matters peacefully. Strive for equal-ity; maintain integrity in all you do. ★★★

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Review what’s entailed to reach your goal. Taking care of your responsibilities without subjecting yourself to loss or inconvenience will take a strong will and good ideas that are doable. Pipe dreams are not solutions

since they will deter you from moving forward. ★★★

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Look for a unique way to express who you are and what you represent. A new image will attract the people who are most apt to help you achieve your dreams. Engage in social activities that enhance your life. Romance is featured. ★★★★★

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Be careful whom you mess with. Emotional situations will get blown out of pro-portion, easily leaving you in a precarious position that can affect your relationship with someone special. Think before you say or do some-thing you’ll regret. 2 stars

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Your desire for change should be contemplated. A hasty move will be met with opposition that can put a damper on your plans. Know what you are up against; work with those you need to reach your goal. 4 stars

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Engage in energetic activ-ities that will keep you too busy to get into trouble. Expect someone who counts on you to burden you with demands. Offer suggestions and move on to whatever benefits you most. Don’t give in to bullying. 3 stars

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Emotions will mount, making it difficult for you to avoid an altercation with someone you disagree with. Curb your desire to pour your energy into something as useless as a fight when you should be focusing on getting ahead. 3 stars

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Think and fol-low through. Your ideas can help you, free up cash or earn more money. Your deliberate actions will not be welcomed by all, but as long as they work for you, don’t let anyone interfere in reach-ing your destination. 3 stars

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You’ve got

moves. Whether a physi-cal or creative feat, you will prove you can do whatev-er you set your mind to. Be proud of your abilities and skills, and share your victory with the people you care about most. Romance is encouraged. 4 stars

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Look for balance and integrity. Shy away from any-one trying to push you to indulge in something that isn’t in your best interest. Look for purpose and a rea-son to put your energy, time and money into change. 2 stars

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Explore old ideas. Consider how best to update and modify what you have already started. Looking for a progressive and alternative route will lead to solutions that fit the current econom-ic climate. Personal gain is within reach. 5 stars
