The Washington Post, Nick Sandmann settle $250 million lawsuit out of court Cameron Knight Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

The Washington Post and Nick Sandmann have settled a libel and slander lawsuit stemming from coverage of the Northern Kentucky teen, who became the center of a social media fi restorm in 2019. Sandmann announced the settlement on Twitter on Friday, which also happened to be his 18th birthday. “Thanks to my family & millions of you who have stood your ground by supporting me,” Sandmann wrote. “I still have more to do.” The teen and his family sued The Washington Post for $250 million after it reported on a viral video from a trip Sandmann took with his Covington Catholic High School class to Washington D.C. for the Right to Life March on Jan. 18, 2019. The details of the settlement have not Sandmann’s been released pubattorneys claimed licly. A motion fi led in U.S. District Court The Post incorrectly by Sandmann’s law- characterized the yers requested the case be dismissed at teen as the aggressor the request of both in the situation and sides of the suit. “We are pleased exposed him to that we have been public ridicule. able to reach a mutually agreeable resolution of the remaining claims in this lawsuit,” said Kristine Coratti Kelly, vice president of communications for The Washington Post, in a statement to The Enquirer. The clip video showed Sandmann and Nathan Phillips, a Native American who was demonstrating that day, facing each other in a crowd. Sandmann was wearing a red Make America Great Again hat. Twitter exploded with accusations of racism and privilege. News outlets like the Washington Post, NBC, CNN and The Enquirer all began reporting the story. Phillips told reporters he was trying to defuse a tense situation – some of the students had just had a loud encounter with a group of Black Hebrew Israelites. See SANDMANN, Page 2A

Braxton Brewing Co. is bringing its Northern Kentucky-based brews over the river to Cincinnati. Braxton will be opening an additional taproom location at 3 Points Urban Brewery in Pendleton, offi cials recently announced. “Braxton Brewing Company Cincinnati will open later this year and will focus on blending everything the company has brought to life in Northern Kentucky, just across the river,” offi cials said. Offi cials said the move will allow Braxton to further expand its footprint and will allow Hickory Wald, the previous owners of 3 Points Urban Brewery, to maintain focus on its core business, Nation Kitchen and Bar.

“It’s incredible to fi nally have a location and a home in Cincinnati proper,” Co-founder and CEO Jake Rouse said in a statement. “Since we’ve opened our doors, we have always felt we had two homes – one in Covington and one in Cincinnati. Now, we actually do. Our future looks bright, and for that, we’re grateful.” Braxton has was named the Fourth fourth fastestgrowing regional brewery of 2019 from the Brewers Association. Since its founding, the company has expanded its Northern Kentucky footprint to include the fl agship in Covington, Braxton Labs inside the Party Source in Bellevue and the Barrel House in Fort Mitchell. The Braxton Labs acquisition was also a brewery takeover. In 2017, Ei8ht Ball Brewing closed, leaving room for Braxton to purchase the facility.

Sandmann Continued from Page 1A

Sandmann identifi ed himself as the teen featured in the video in a written statement. He said he was also trying to deescalate the situation because he wasn’t sure why Phillips had approached him and the other students. Sandmann and his attorneys argued that the gist of a Washington Post article falsely conveyed that Sandmann had assaulted or physically intimidated Nathan Phillips and engaged in racist conduct. The suit said the paper’s coverage was like a “modern-day form of McCarthyism.” Sandmann’s attorneys claimed The Post incorrectly characterized the teen as the aggressor in the situation and exposed him to public ridicule. The lawsuit was at fi rst dismissed in federal court, but then was allowed to continue on a limited basis examining specifi c statements that said Sandmann “blocked” Phillips and “would not allow him to retreat.” In a tweet Friday, Sandmann said: “The fi ght isn’t over. 2 down. 6 to go.” CNN has settled with Sandmann in January. The details of that settlement were private. There are outstanding lawsuits against NBC, ABC News, CBS News, The New York Times, Rolling Stone and Gannett. The Enquirer is owned by Gannett. Between all the lawsuits, Sandmann sought $1.25 billion in damages. With the CNN and Washington Post lawsuits settled, he is still seeking $725 million. It is unknown if Sandmann received any money as part of either settlement.

A 6-year-old Florida boy has been reunited with his stuff ed toy puppy, thanks to staff at the Cincinnati airport and a Facebook post that reached 1.5 million people. “WE DID IT! Jet (the stuff ed toy) is home!” Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport offi cials tweeted Friday, along with a picture of the little boy, Jaydence, standing with his family and clutching the toy. It turns out that Jet was no ordinary stuff ed animal. He was a gift from a judge who fi nalized Jaydence’s adoption two years ago. CVG employees found the stuff ed toy dog they named Jet by a Starbucks outside a security checkpoint on July 14. The airport tweeted a picture of Jet that day, hoping someone would recognize the toy and identify its owner. “We think this guy missed his fl ight at CVG this morning! Look familiar? Help us share so we can get him home,” the airport said. Employees secured a mask over Jet’s snout and posted a multitude of pictures in the following days showing the toy “searching” the airport for his owner. Here was Jet inspecting a jet engine

and kicking back in a cockpit. There was Jet touring a fi rehouse and making friends with a masked stuff ed Cincinnati fl ying pig. Jet got chummy with a TSA K-9 offi cer and was introduced to Graeter’s Ice Cream.

Former Bengals LB Rey Maualuga arrested Saturday in Northern Kentucky Jared Goffinet Fox19

Former Bengals linebacker Rey Maualuga was arrested for intoxicated driving and reckless driving in Villa Hills, according to the Kenton County Jail website. Maualuga, a 2009 second round pick of the Bengals, was arrested by the Villa Hills Police Department and booked in the jail around 2 a.m. Saturday, the jail’s website showed. He was released several hours later at 8:45 a.m., according to the jail.

KENTON COUNTY, KY (FOX19) – An attorney for the suspect offi cers say is involved in the Elsmere fatal shooting says his client was only trying to defend his child and his girlfriend.

identifi ed over fears of retaliation, say they heard three gunshots and looked outside to see Witkowicz standing over Daughtery’s body. Witkowicz “He was standing there, and the girl went to move to lay on her back, and he went over, and he shot her four more times. I watched that happen,” one witness said. Another witness says Witkowicz stayed at the scene and cooperated with police. “He was calm, cool, collected,” a witness said. Witkowicz was being held at the Kenton County Detention Center when this article was originally published. The Kenton County district court judge said Witkowicz had no compassion in the case and set his bond at $500,000. His case was sent to the Kenton County Grand Jury.

Barbecued ribs recipe ‘really is a keeper’ My barbecued ribs Rita’s Kitchen

Baby backs are also called loin ribs.

Rita Heikenfeld

Ingredients

Guest columnist

There’s a “gift without ribbons” growing abundantly, and might I say, aggressively, in my herb garden. Check the photo out – it’s a pumpkin vine! No one’s sure how it got there. Anyway, it has taken over the medicinal and culinary areas of my herb garden, and is now vining out over the garden wall and into the Bible herbs area. So far it hasn’t crept into the household herbs and edible fl owers, but I have a feeling it will. Since there are no herb garden tours this year due to the pandemic, I’m going to let it grow. Another pumpkin means even more good eating in the fall. Today, I had a reader stop me at the store, telling me how much she liked my barbecued ribs recipe. “You should share it again. Every time we have a gathering, your ribs are requested.” Well, OK, here’s the barbecues rib recipe and dry rub again, updated a bit. It really is a keeper. Tip: Lots of basil? Make basil paste for freezer. Whirl basil leaves with a tiny bit of olive oil in food processor to make a thick paste. Freeze and use for pestos, and in sauces, soups, etc.

About 5 pounds or so baby back/loin ribs. Dry rub and bbq sauce Instructions Remove silver skin from ribs (on my site, abouteating.com). Then cut into slabs, up to 6 ribs per slab. Seasoning ribs: Season ribs with my spicy dry rub (or your favorite). Be generous and pat rub in on both sides so seasoning sticks. Precooking: fi rst on grill to mark, then in oven Place on hot grill and “mark” them for a couple minutes on each side. Marking means to grill just until you see grill marks, that’s all. You’ll fi nish cooking them in the oven, and then grill them again to get a nice char, basting with sauce. Preheat oven to 300.

Spicy Dry Rub

Arrange marked ribs in single layers, curved side up, in baking pan and pour chicken broth or beer around ribs (not on top), a generous cup or so.

Delicious on pork tenderloin or loin, too.

This makes for a flavorful steam.

2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons chili powder blend

Cover tightly with foil and cook until done and tender, from 11⁄ 2 to 2 1⁄ 2 hours depending upon size.

2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons cumin

Don’t over cook, you don’t want them falling apart since you’ll be fi nishing them on grill.

2 teaspoons coarsely ground black pepper

Bonus: this can be done ahead of time! Finish on grill, coating with sauce: Place ribs on medium high grill and start brushing with bbq sauce.

A pumpkin vine growing in an herb garden.

Barbecued ribs are a favorite summer dish. RITA HEIKENFELD/FOR THE ENQUIRER

Do this several times on both sides. Ready when hot and charred a bit. Serve with additional warm sauce.

Ingredients 6 tablespoons garlic powder

2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon salt 2 teaspoons paprika 2 teaspoons allspice Instructions Whisk everything together. Store extra in refrigerator. Hot and smokey bbq sauce Check out my abouteating.com site for recipe. Tip: Make store-bought sauce taste homemade Stir in a couple spoonfuls of dry rub.

SPORTS NKU volleyball hopes for the chance to build on NCAA bid James Weber Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

The recent postponement of fall sports in the Horizon League until Oct. 1 puts a pause on all Northern Kentucky University teams who are competing this season. A NKU team with the most momentum to lose is the volleyball program, coming off its fi rst appearance in the NCAA Division I Tournament. The Norse went 19-13 last season but peaked at the end, storming through the Horizon League Tournament from the No. 4 seed. NKU dropped only one set in three matches, upsetting No. 1 seed Wright State and No. 2 seed Milwaukee along the way. The Norse then lost to Michigan in the fi rst round of the NCAA Tournament. This season’s postponement wipes away the fi rst month of the new season. “It’s something we probably saw coming as you start to see diff erent leagues around the country make decisions on postponing or canceling,” NKU head coach Liz Hart said. “I don’t think the news was a complete surprise. We’ll have a full team call on Sunday and we’ll learn to adapt.” NKU’s players aren’t currently on campus. Hart said the current plan is for them to arrive in mid-August and start to get ready. The postponement also aff ects soccer, cross country, golf and tennis. September is a month of nonconference matches for the Norse volleyball team. Last year, the Norse played three See NKU, Page 2B

Northern Kentucky’s top boys soccer players James Weber Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

While they are crossing their fi ngers that they will be able to play this season, Northern Kentucky boys soccer teams could be engaging in games in about a month. A number of solid performers return to their respective teams from last season. The following selections were made based on last year’s honors from the state coaches association and Northern Kentucky coaches association, input from coaches and stat reports. Pending state government and KHSAA orders, all players will have a chance to prove themselves on the pitch this fall.

OPINION

How to have better dinner table conversations, from someone who’s done it for a living Polly Campbell Guest Columnist Community Recorder USA TODAY NETWORK

I’ve spent a lot of time eating in restaurants since 1996. That means I have also spent a lot of time having dinner table conversations. I have met new people, gotten to know others better, argued, chit-chatted, joked, commiserated and learned things. I’ve had too much to drink and said things I shouldn’t have, and I’ve also just eaten in companionable silence with my husband. And sometimes I’ve been frustrated and bored. It may be a while before some of us feel comfortable sitting around a table, elbow-to-elbow, talking over dinner. But before I give up my space here, I have some thoughts on what makes for good dinner table conversation. (I love you, all my friends!) We do all kinds of things deliberately to look better, to get ahead at work. But when it comes to how we interact with our friends, strangers or people we’d like to be friends with, we just do what we’ve always done. Most of us just say whatever comes into our minds and so many conversations are just each person waiting for the other person to stop talking about themselves so you can take a turn to talk about yourself. I say, make an eff ort. Approach a sociable dinner with some intention. Think about topics beyond just the daily you. Cultivate stories, think about how to present your opinions, rely on questions that spark conversation. Try to be vivid! Everyone will just talk about how they mow their law or their favorite TV shows unless someone makes an eff ort. Be that person. Or be the other good kind of person in a conversation: the thoughtful listener. Actually respond to what someone just said with empathy or laughter or a follow-up question. One thing I love about millennials is that they say things like, “I

love you so much!” or, “That is the best thing anyone has ever told me!” It’s a little ridiculous, but it feels good. What I’ve learned from doing interviews is that people don’t tell you everything. It can seem rude to ask for clarifi cation, but if you don’t quite understand what someone’s talking about, ask a follow-up question. Don’t be embarrassed. If you ever listen to podcast interviews, you can hear how hosts often reiterate and amplify what the interviewee just said. Emulate them. If you ask questions about people, they will like you. Really listen to how much you talk. Or ask your friends. Are you hogging the conversation? I’ve always been fascinated by non-stop talkers. Not fascinated to listen to them, but fascinated as to why they don’t get the social cues that they are boring everyone around them. Unlike

a cocktail party, you can’t just pretend you saw someone across the room to get out of a tedious conversation. It’s OK to specifi cally interrupt or change the subject or turn to someone else at the table and say, “So what do YOU think?” For some people, like my family, interrupting shows they’re interested and engaged. My husband’s an only child, and he needs a more polite style with moments of silence when he can get a word in. He’s mostly quiet, but then he’ll say something hilarious or clever and only the people who had stopped talking will get the benefi t of it. If you’re out with friends from work, talk about work. Sometimes you have to. But if someone’s spouse is there, take a break. Especially if it’s complaining. In fact, complaining and gossiping about work is No. 1 on my list of things to avoid,

though I’m totally guilty of it. A good conversation is never about complaining or how much you dislike things. If you talk about politics or the state of the world, it’s easy to get into a negative place. When you’re with people who agree with you, there’s a tendency to just make it worse with every sentence of further outrage. If that happens to you, think of some things you’ve heard about that are positive on the subject so you don’t spiral downward. Take time to talk about the food. My personal rule is that while you’re eating one meal, don’t talk about other meals, past or future. Just enjoy what you’re having now. If you’re lucky enough to be eating good food, stop and enjoy it, make it part of the conversation. That is an opportunity to bind yourself to other human beings.

SCHOOL NEWS 18 receive National Merit scholarships Seventeen students from southwest Ohio and one from Northern Kentucky were among 4,100 students nationally who are receiving college scholarships after being named fi nalists in the National Merit Scholarship program. The scholarships were awarded by 167 colleges and universities through the National Merit program. This is the last round of recipients in the 2020 program, now in its 65th year. There were three previous announcements of corporate and National Merit Scholarship Corporation awards made earlier this year. Scholarship recipients are selected from among the 16,000 fi nalists from across the country.

More than 1.5 million juniors in 22,000 high schools entered the 2020 competition by taking the 2018 Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test as juniors. College scholarships range from $500 to $2,000 per year, with most renewable for up to four years. The exact amounts of those scholarships are not released by National Merit.

BY WYNA LIU / EDITED BY WILL SHORTZ 19 Wyna Liu, of New York City, is an artist and jewelry designer working with magnets and tensegrity. (You can see examples of her craft at wynaliu.com.) She has been solving crosswords for more than 10 years but just started making them recently. Liu says 91-Across is a shout-out to her parents, who own and operate a chain of radio channels. They made up the name Wyna (pronounced ‘‘WIN-uh’’) to mimic radio call letters — ‘‘Y ’n’ A’’ for the initials of their names, Yvonne and Arthur, and the starting ‘‘W’’ because they’re on the East Coast. — W.S.

COMMUNITY NEWS Revival Vintage Bottle shop to open Aug. 7 in Downtown Covington There’s a new storefront in town that merges Kentucky’s spirited history with a one-of-a-kind shopping and tasting experience. Revival Vintage Bottle Shop, located at 5 E. 8th Street, is home to a collection of hundreds of rare and vintage bottles, carefully curated by bourbon expert, and professional “dusty” hunter, Brad Bonds. Co-founded by Bonds, Katie Meyer and Shannon Smith, Revival is a destination for the bourbon curious and longtime collectors alike. “The bourbon, and spirits, community loves to learn – from barrels to bottles, process to tastings,” said Bonds. “The intersection of education and a uniquely curated experience is what sets Revival apart. We’re not giving tasting tours. Each individual’s tasting experience will be crafted around their questions, interests and general curiosities.” In addition to its commitment to local economic impact through the selection of Covington and Kentucky handmade products, Revival will off er a subscription membership program that will include a monthly gift box with tasting samples, invitations to member-only events as well as pre-release notices on newly acquired bottles before they go on sale to the public. Additional details will be announced at a later date. Another point of diff erentiation for the retailer – Revival is the fi rst location in Northern Kentucky where vintage and/or rare spirit collectors can legally buy and sell bottles. Revival can also provide professional bottle valuations and plans to be able to assist with bottle exchanges in the future. “The vintage spirits law enables us to buy bottles from private collectors and off er the general public an opportunity to legally purchase and sell unique and rare spirits many seek but will likely never fi nd,” said Smith. “We are excited for the opportunity to off er vintage bourbons and other spirits by the package and by the pour alongside their modern counterparts.” After securing its location in 2019 the new downtown business was originally scheduled to open in the spring but was

delayed by COVID-19. “COVID-19 has presented its fair share of challenges for small business owners,” said Meyer. “However, it has also presented new opportunities and allowed us to improve our e-commerce model to better serve clients where they are most comfortable.” “Not only are we fortunate to have such a business opening during this pandemic, but we are excited about the fact that this a new type of bourbon experience that does not exist elsewhere in the region,” said Tom West, City of Covington Economic Development Director. “This is yet another example of how the best minds in Covington always put an original spin on a business concept to create a customer experience that will be uniquely Covington.” Revival’s retail hours are 11 a.m.-6 p.m. Thursday-Sunday. Tastings, for a group of eight or less are by appointment only, 6-10 p.m. Thursday-Saturday, or 6-8 p.m. Sunday. In order to follow social distancing guidelines, only 21 people are permitted in Revival’s retail space at one time and visitors are required to wear masks. For more information, visit revivalky.com.

Backpacks fi lled with school supplies to be given away COVINGTON, Ky. – Backpacks fi lled with school supplies will be given away to Northern Kentucky students from low-income families but not at the annual Backpacks & Breakfast event that many families have relied on but rather through a sweepstakes this year. Because of concerns about spreading COVID-19, the Backpacks & Breakfast event that Northern Kentucky Harvest has hosted annually for the past 19 years will instead turn to a free lottery open to students from low-income families in Boone, Campbell, and Kenton counties. To receive a backpack, families need to register by July 30. A total of 912 backpacks fi lled with grade-appropriate school supplies will be given away to students in kindergarten through 12th grade. Frisch’s which in past years has provided a free breakfast to all who attended the event in Covington’s Goebel Park will contribute coupons good for a free kid’s meal in each backpack distributed. To register for the 2020 Backpacks & Breakfast lottery, email the following information to backpacks@beconcerned.org: parent/guardians’ name,

address, email, and phone number; and student’s name, school, and grade level. “We’re emphasizing that people need to sign up for backpacks this year before the give-away weekend,” said Paul Gottbrath, Harvest’s board president. “That’s the biggest change.” After the drawing for the backpacks is completed on July 31, families receiving backpacks will be notifi ed and given instructions on picking them up. Distribution will take place on Aug. 8-9 in the parking lot of Be Concerned, 1100 Pike St., Covington. Be Concerned along with Brighton Center, a partner in the Backpacks and Breakfast event for the past two decades, will use a “car-hop” model for the two-day backpack distribution. Families will drive in and remain in their cars as volunteers take their information and give it to runners who will fi ll backpack orders. Major sponsors of the 2020 Backpacks & Breakfast, the largest school readiness undertaking in Northern Kentucky, are the Butler Foundation and the R.C. Durr Foundation. Also providing fi nancial support are the Scripps Howard Foundation, the Western & Southern Financial Fund, St. Pius X Church, the Sofagives Charitable Fund, the T.J. Johnson State Farm Insurance Agency, and the Women of the Covington Moose Lodge. In addition to Frisch’s, in-kind support is coming from St. Joseph Catholic Church, Cold Spring; St. Timothy Church, Union; and Immanuel United Methodist Church, Lakeside Park.

Practicing kindness can help heal a broken world 2020 has been a tough year, as Americans have faced many challenges. As a result, many of us are experiencing

emotional, mental, physical and fi nancial struggles. We need kindness more than ever. Kindness is any act you do that benefi ts others. Research shows that people who help others in various ways are happier and have an overall better feeling of well-being than those who don’t practice kindness. Kind acts do not have to take up much of your time or cost you a lot of money. They can be as simple as calling your friends and family to check on them, running an errand for an older neighbor, or letting someone with only a few items check out in front of you at the grocery store when you have a full cart. You can be kind to others by listening to them, if they come to you with their problems. While you may not feel like the best person to lend support, rest assured that you are the person they choose to confi de in. That shows trust. Extend kindness beyond the reach of your immediate contacts by doing good deeds for complete strangers. You can pay for the person’s order behind you in the drive-thru. You can off er to purchase or provide a nutritious meal for a person who is experiencing homelessness. Donating items, time or money to a charity of your choice is always a good way to practice kindness. This year, with its deep divisions, has challenged us to take a look deeper into ourselves and review our values, morals and priorities. This makes kindness even more essential than ever. Be kind to others and be willing to listen to them, even if their opinion diff ers from yours. Be respectful, open-minded and try to understand their perspective. While kindness may not magically fi x all of the world’s problems, it certainly will help start the process. Educational programs of the Cooperative Extension Service serve all people regardless of economic or social status and will not discriminate on the basis of race, color, ethnic origin, national origin, creed, religion, political belief, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expressions, pregnancy, marital status, genetic information, age, veteran status, or physical or mental disability.
