Warmbier family seeks $1B from North Korea Max Londberg Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Single mom seeks car for daughter’s medical needs Max Londberg Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
FINNEYTOWN – The Enquirer and United Way of Greater Cincinnati have joined forces for the 32nd year to promote the Wish List giving season, assisting families in need. Today, we share the story of Bryce Foster and her daughter. Who is in need? Kaysen Blackshear, 3, was diagnosed earlier this year with a gene disorder that has led to seizures and developmental delays. She and her mother, Foster, 23, must often make the journey from their Finneytown home to Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center for Kaysen’s appointments. After her daughter’s diagnosis, Foster left her retail job to care for Kaysen. That’s limited her income and encouraged her to seek help this holiday season with purchasing a vehicle. “I want to do it myself, but it’s really hard for me to ask for help,” Foster said at the hospital after a recent visit with the specialists there. “Just the fact that I don’t always get it.” What life challenges are they overcoming? Sometimes mother and daughter wait hours for a ride provided by Medicare to travel to the hospital. The delays lead to canceled medical appointments and undue stress for the single mother. If she doesn’t feel up to waiting for a ride, Foster takes two buses to get to the hospital, collapsing Kaysen’s stroller at each stop and carrying it and her daughter to a seat. It’s not a carefree feat and takes a lot of time. Kaysen recently began preschool, and a car would also help Foster transport her to sites for specialized education.

The parents of Otto Warmbier, who died last year after North Korea imprisoned him, are seeking more than $1 billion in damages against the country, according to federal court records. Fred and Cindy Warmbier of Wyoming, Ohio, requested $1.05 billion in punitive damages and about $46 million for the family's suffering in a motion filed in October in U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C. The motion is part of a civil lawsuit brought in April against the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, alleging the "rogue regime" took Otto Warmbier hostage "for its own wrongful ends and brutally tortured and murdered him." Otto Warmbier, 22 years old when he died, spent a year and a half imprisoned after North Korea accused him of committing a "hostile act" that threatened the "single-minded unity" of the country's citizens. North Korean officials alleged he acted at the behest of a church in Ohio he didn't attend as well as the CIA, the motion states. In February 2016 in Pyongyang, North Korea, he read from a prepared statement before state media, declaring he committed the "severe crime" of stealing a propaganda poster from a hotel.

And in emergencies, when a “toxic seizure” causes Kaysen’s arms and legs to flail and vomiting, Foster wishes she had a vehicle to get to an emergency department rather than calling for an ambulance. “Even when calling 911, we have to find a way back home,” Foster said. Their wish list A vehicle. Foster has been practicing driving recently with friends after a few years of not doing it. “It would make my life so much easier,” she said of having a car. “We’d be so worry-free.” Getting to appointments, Kaysen’s school, the grocery store – so many tasks

would be accomplished faster with wheels of her own. The estimated cost of Foster’s wish is $3,000. Worth nothing Kaysen loves to gnaw on just about anything: the safety belt on her car seat, a stray backpack strap, the pouch containing her puréed snack. “She’s always active,” Foster said. “She’s always got to be moving, touching, just curious as I-don’t-knowwhat.” How to help Donations can be made online at www.uwgc.org/wishlist.

Springdale 18 switches to reclining chairs Jeanne Houck Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
Springdale 18: Cinema de Lux will host a New Year’s Eve event designed to say goodbye to the old year and hello to its new reclining chairs. For $20.19, revelers may watch one of two feature films – “Holmes & Watson” or “Second Act” – from the comfort of the reclining chairs that as of Friday, Dec. 21, will comprise the entirety of seating in 13 of the 14 theaters at the cinema. The 14th theater, an IMAX theater, was recently re-seated with high-back
rocker chairs. The new seating is part of a multimillion renovation project at the cinema at 12064 Springfield Pike in Springdale. The lobby decor also has been upgraded at the business that is part of the Showcase Cinemas chain. Moviegoers can belly up to a full-service bar in the cinema and take their beer, wine or cocktail to their seats. After the movies on New Year’s Eve at Springdale 18: Cinema de Lux, theatergoers are invited to gather in the auditorium to watch a live television feed to Times Square.

He begged for mercy and was sentenced to 15 years of hard labor. After his release he returned to the U.S., arriving at Lunken Airport in a coma and suffering extensive brain damage. He died days later. After a summit earlier this year between President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, Trump said Otto Warmbier's death "was not in vain" and helped spur the nations to reach diplomatic talks. “We appreciate President Trump's recent comments about our family," the Warmbiers said in a statement. "We are proud of Otto and miss him. Hopefully, something positive can come from this.” The Warmbiers' suit is allowed under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act, a statute aimed at preventing state-sponsored terrorism.

damages is about 2.5 percent of North Korea's 2015 gross domestic product. The figure aims to serve as a deterrent for the country to "change its unlawful behavior in the future," the motion states. But it is unlikely the Warmbiers will receive the punitive damages, according to Robert Tolchin, a Brooklyn-based attorney who has handled about a dozen similar cases. Damages from similar cases have been paid at least in part by seizing foreign government assets in the U.S., Tolchin said. But in the case of economically isolated North Korea, such a payment mechanism is unlikely. A past case against North Korea that draws parallels to the Warmbiers' resulted in a 2015 judgment on behalf of surviving relatives of Han Kim, kidnapped and killed by North Korea. Tolchin represented Han Kim's relatives, who were awarded $300 million in punitive damages and $30 million in compensatory damages. But Han Kim's relatives have only received a portion of the award through the U.S. Victims of State Sponsored Terrorism Fund, which was established during the Obama administration. It is bankrolled by fines paid by foreign companies that violate U.S. sanctions, Tolchin said. The fund currently has nearly 6,000 claims.
Otto Warmbier'sWombiers' parents seek about $6 million in economic damages and $40 million for the pain and suffering endured by him and his parents. Among more than 850 pages of supporting documents filed by the Warmbiers' attorneys in October, Otto Warmbier's final months alive are described as full of pain by medical professionals who treated him in the U.S. Daniel Kanter with University of Cincinnati Health concluded Otto Warmbier's severely damaged brain was a result of a loss of blood flow for up to 20 minutes. His dentists, Murray Dock and Todd Williams, discovered two of his teeth bent backward, likely caused by "some sort of impact." A scar of at least two inches in diameter was found on Otto Warmbier's left foot. Otto Warmbier, a salutatorian at Wyoming High School and a University of Virginia graduate, traveled to North Korea with a Chinese-based tour group in late 2015. He was detained at the airport on Jan. 2, 2016, as the group was preparing to leave the country. His family received only one letter from him after his televised trial. After that, they heard nothing until shortly before June 2017, when he was finally flown home. "It is hard to put into words what this whole experience has been like for me, and how devastating it has been," Cindy Warmbier wrote in a court filing. "I miss Otto all the time." The U.S. Victims of State Sponsored Terrorism Fund only pays compensatory damages and is capped at $30 million per family, Tolchin said.

Police seek help catching Great Parks equine porch package Grinch auction draws criticism citing the Department of Commerce. The same USA TODAY article stated more than 30 percent of Americans say they’ve experienced package thefts, according to a survey by Xfinity Home, Comcast’s home security service. Online retailer Amazon.com offers products including Package Panther bag that attaches to door handles or railings using a cable lock. Amazon also offers Amazon Key, a smart lock kit that allows a homeowner to unlock their door remotely using an app and digital smart locks. The delivery person can tuck the package inside the door and the homeowner can watch it all on video. Colerain Township police even started a service allowing people to have their packages delivered to the police station instead of their front porch, according to a 2017 Enquirer article. Common sense dictates there are downsides and upsides to ordering online, said Cathy Roberson, a shipping and delivery expert with Logistics Trends & Insights in Atlanta in the Dec. 13 USA TODAY article. “You’ve got something worth 200 bucks being delivered to your home? You better be sitting on your front steps when it arrives,” Robertson said.

It’s the holiday season. And porch pirates are coming around to take unattended package deliveries. Police are asking for tips to identify a man taking packages Dec. 4 off the front porch of a College Hill home. “Porch pirates” is a term for people who take packages left out in the open after delivery. Greater Cincinnati Crime Stoppers shared the homeowner video showing a man wearing a coat and skull cap casually walking onto the front porch. It took the man less than 25 seconds to step into the covered porch and leave the yard with the packages. The man pauses before picking up the packages as a white truck passes by on the street. People with tips about the identity of the man in the video are asked to submit tips, which are anonymous, to Crime Stoppers. Submit online tips at Greater Cincinnati Crime Stoppers’ website, call the tip line at 888-3523040 or download the P3 Tips app at Google Play or in the Apple app store. Online shopping made up 9 percent of all retail sales as of September, according to a Dec. 13 USA TODAY article

The Winton Woods Riding Center is drawing criticism for its auction of horses, ponies and a miniature horse. Sealed bidding started Dec. 7 and concluded Dec. 17 for five steeds. Pictures and descriptions of each were posted on the center’s Facebook page. The posts were being met with sadness, interest and criticism. Toni Bloom questioned the sealed bid process. On a post advertising Scout, a brown and white paint pony mare, she wrote, “These horses, ponies, & minis - who have carted kids around and faithfully performed their jobs aren’t even worth an application process to make sure they don’t go to kill buyers. Says a lot about Winton Woods Riding Center.” Winton Woods Riding Center is part of the Great Parks of Hamilton County. As a public entity, the center doesn’t have the freedom that private companies have when they rehome horses, according to spokeswoman Nikki Ferrell. “We cannot act or appear to act with bias, so we can’t decide whether potential bidders are fit homes,” she said. “What we can do is require winning bidders to agree in writing to follow equine best practices and the Department of Agriculture’s care standards, which we do as part of the ownership transfer form.” Jennifer Martin, who owns a nonprofit farm animal rescue in Morrow called “Little Patch of Heaven” said she doesn’t understand the bidding process. “I think the way they are auctioning them off is unfair and unsafe for the
horses,” Martin told the Enquirer. “Meat buyers could offer $300 on each horse. If no one else bids, they go on the truck for slaughter.” Martin said she’s never seen a bidding process like the one used by Winton Woods. “You never know if you’ve been outbid to bid again,” she said. The horses have been rehomed through this process for years, Ferrell said. In 2017, Carly Schutte successfully bid on a 15-year-old off-the-track thoroughbred. “He’s a very cool guy. I love him,” she said. Schutte, a former student and volunteer at the riding center and former parks employee, said she understands people’s concerns. “Auction doesn’t usually mean good things in the equestrian business,” she said. Many of the people bidding on the horses are like her, Schutte said. They are people who as a student, volunteer or employee have a connection with the horses, a point confirmed by Ferrell. “Anecdotally, I can tell you that we typically know the people who win these bids,” she said. “The equine community is pretty tight-knit and former students and volunteers are often our most enthusiastic bidders.” The horses are sold in the auction for various reasons, Ferrell said. “The horses at the riding center are ridden for lessons for hours a day, and the horses we’re selling are not able to keep up with that kind of schedule,” she added. The center, located at 10073 Daly Road, has 30 horses, 15 ponies, and two miniature horses.

Decadent chocolate-covered cherries will impress Rita’s Kitchen Rita Heikenfeld
It was a request from a reader I couldn’t refuse. “Help! I always make chocolate covered cherries for New Year’s and I lost your recipe. Do you still have it?” And the answer is…yes. The first time I tasted these was when friend, Perrin Rountree, an Anderson Township reader, brought them to work during the holidays. Easy to make, there’s just a bit of technique involved, which I’ve explained in detail. Maybe you need just one more confection for that holiday dessert tray.
Or is it a hostess gift you’re looking for? Get ready to impress the lucky recipient. And as we end the old year and segue into the new one, my prayer is that you finish the holidays with health and happiness, and start the New Year the same way.
Readers want to know Why is my layered peppermint bark separating? A couple of reasons for this, the main one being that you need to use highquality bar chocolate, not morsels, for both white and dark layers. White chocolate should contain cocoa butter, not palm kernel oil. Palm
kernel oil inhibits bonding of the dark chocolate and white layers. Don’t use “chocolate flavored” chocolate. Score the bark after the second layer has become almost firm in the refrigerator. This makes it easy to cut after it's completely set. Before cutting or breaking into pieces, let the layered bark set out just a few minutes. If it’s too cold, it may be too brittle to cut. Check out Nancy Baggett’s excellent post on perfect peppermint bark and see my site for photos. (http://kitchenlane.com/2011/12/how-to-make-chocolate-peppermint-bark.html). Any tips on getting everything on the table at the right temperature? Hah, an age old dilemma! I learned
from Teri Gelter, daughter-in-law Courtney’s mom, to cook items that keep the heat in first, like pasta, potatoes, etc. Wrap them in a couple layers of foil (spray the inside of the foil if the food is in a pan so it doesn’t stick to the food), then wrap the whole thing in a couple bath towels. It should stay warm for an hour or so, freeing stove top and oven space. Baked potatoes can be wrapped in foil and then placed in a cooler lined with a bath towel.

Candy shop quality chocolate-covered cherries Ingredients 1 jar l0 oz., maraschino cherries with stems Instructions Drain cherries very well on paper towels for several hours. They must be dry for fondant to adhere. Ingredients fondant Not a true fondant, but an easy one. You’ll have fondant left over. Ingredients 3 tablespoons butter, softened 3 tablespoons light corn syrup

Viewpoints How to protect yourself in the year ahead Sandra Guile Guest Columnist Community Press
Now is the time that many people look back and reflect on all that happened to get ready for the year ahead, and BBB is no different. Unfortunately, scammers stay the same from year to year and will continue to work to steal important information from people. BBB has compiled scam information from 2018 to give everyone an idea of what to watch for in 2019. The three scams that were reported most often to BBB’s Scam Tracker this year were phishing scams, sweepstakes scams, and government grant scams. Phishing scams are typically committed using email messages or phone calls that appear to come from legitimate businesses or known email addresses. They often use crude social engineering tools designed to induce panic and trick the reader or caller into a vocal
response or clicking on a link in the message. From there, the respondent is then convinced to divulge private information that the scammer then uses to commit identity theft. Sweepstakes and government grant scams are usually conducted by phone and include a claim that the recipient has been awarded a prize or grant only if they pay an upfront fee. People that pressure you for payment should be treated with caution, and if they ask for money through prepaid means - refuse. Several news stories broke this year about data breaches of retailers that customers thought they could trust. The best advice? Make sure to keep an eye on your accounts and change your passwords periodically to keep your personal details secure. Instead of using a password, consider using a password keeper or a passphrase and double check you’re not giving any hints away on your social media postings. Cyber Experts are predicting that next year’s Internet of Things may be at
higher risk of not being able to securely retain consumer’s personal information. Any of the new electronics that were intended to make our lives easier should probably be looked at and used with more caution. The days of simply updating a password are evolving to using a passphrase and constantly updating hardware or software will become the norm. It will become more of a necessity to keep our information personal and we’ll have to become diligent on who and with whom we share our email, phone and mailing address to protect against cyber thieves. Many of these large-scale breaches announced in the news are caused by phishing scams; they’re a simple and easy way to gather a lot of profitable information quickly. Customer and employee education should improve awareness of the latest attacks and scams, so training is an especially important measure for business owners to take. Here’s one more fun fact to digest:
2019 will see 40 billion mobile phone calls. Half of those calls are expected to be from scammers. The best advice? Hang up or if you don’t recognize the number, don’t answer it and perhaps they’ll leave a voicemail. If they do leave one and you don’t recognize it, delete it. BBB recommends making it a goal to protect your personal information and step up your online security. Listen carefully to calls that request moneyand update the software on your mobile and electronic devices. Keep a close eye on bank statements, watch out for pop-up ads, emails, and text messages from unfamiliar sources and research any apps before downloading them.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Leave the transfer tax alone Even the Holiday Season can’t stop more bad news for property owners. Not only are property taxes out of control, but now our County Commissioners are considering raising the property Transfer Tax by one third. Presently, the seller of a home pays $300 per $100,000 of property sold. If the Commissioner’s follow through with the increase, the seller of property
Happy trails
would pay $400 per $100,000. The Cincinnati Area Board of Realtors have indicated their opposition, fearing the people will be discouraged from buying homes and moving into Hamilton County. As usual property owners are caught in the middle. On one hand, property owners (many of whom are seniors and on fixed incomes) can’t afford the high
property taxes. On the other hand, they will have difficulty in selling their homes because of the additional burden of higher property transfer tax. Commissioners, if you need addition revenue, find it elsewhere other than on the backs of property owners. Norbert A. Nadel Hamilton County Recorder
I am sad to see head football coach Tom Bolden depart Colerain High School after 12 great seasons. Like his predecessor Kerry Coombs he had the Cardinals in the playoffs every year – missing only once. I can only hope Colerain has a fitting successor. Dave Thomas White Oak

Sports Colerain quartet signs with Miami John Snodgrass Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
COLERAIN – It wasn’t planned, it just happened. That was the consensus of the four Colerain football players who signed with Miami University, Wednesday, during the first day of the college football early-signing period. The four Cardinals, all fresh off a state runner-up season, put pen to paper and signed to play football in Oxford helping to give the RedHawks one of the best recruiting classes in the Mid-American Conference. “It hasn’t really hit us until today, we all just thought we were going to the same school, but it actually is crazy to think about how I’ve played with these dudes for three years and now I’ve got another four or five years with them, so it’s really exciting,” Miami signee Rusty Feth said. The development was months in the making. It started in March when Feth, a 6-foot-5, 305-pound offensive lineman, announced his commitment to the RedHawks. Linebacker Luke Bolden was next, announcing his commitment on May 31. Running back/defensive back Syncere Jones came on board in late August and the quartet rounded itself out on Dec. 16 when running back/linebacker Ivan Pace Jr., the Ohio Division I Defensive Player of the Year, announced his intention to attend Miami just three days before the opening of the early signing period. While they all agree that they reached their decision on their own with the help of their families there was some internal recruiting. With Feth as the ringleader. “Every day,” Feth said of nudging his teammates to join him in Oxford. “I kind of had a feeling Luke was going to, so not him as much, but Syncere and Ivan, definitely, every single day. I was trying to get them to make the right decision.” For Jones, who former Colerain coach Tom Bolden called a top-three athlete in Colerain history, Wednesday, the coaching staff and current RedHawks players

were a big reason for him committing. “Every time I go up there, everybody knows my name,” Jones he said. “Why wouldn’t you want to go to a place that seems like home? It’s a great environment, somewhere you know you can just go in there and make a good impact and play.” For Bolden, the coaching staff and campus location were big draws. As well as Feth. “Rusty, he was a big part of me coming, the coaching staff, all of that,” Bolden said. “I just wanted to bring as many people as I could with me. Ivan, a big pick up, Syncere, a big pick up; two really good players that are going to be really good for Miami. ... The coaching staff felt like family to me. They never lied, they told me the truth. It’s close. My family can come to every home game.
I’m just really excited.” Pace, who is coming off a monster season in which he ran for 1,441 yards and 22 touchdowns on offense, and totaled 84 tackles, 6.5 sacks, four forced fumbles and a pick-six on defense, went to Miami games growing up and wanted a school where his parents could go see him play. “I always need my momma to be there for me, that’s my biggest supporter,” Pace said. That didn’t stop his teammates from pushing him to commit. “They were in my ear every day, saying ‘Commit to Miami, commit to Miami’” he said. “They would make fake videos saying that I was committing to Miami. They would walk up to me (with their phones on) saying ‘It’s a Miami commit,’ stuff like that. It was fun.
Knowing they were going there and knowing I’d get to play four more years with them, it was fun.” “We were going pretty hard since he committed,” Jones said with a laugh. “A little pressure never hurt and we got him to commit.” The Colerain foursome will be joined in Oxford by fellow locals Jack Coldiron of Covington Catholic and Lonnie Phelps of Mount Healthy in the RedHawks’ 2019 class. “There’s a lot of comfort,” Jones said of going to college with so many high school teammates. “Playing with them the last four years, it’s nothing but comfort. As soon as I get there, there’s someone that knows my weakness, I know their weakness. So they’re going to help me when I’m down and I’m going to help them when they’re down.”

Goodwill, Sharonville Convention Center and Spectra host 2018 Homeless Dinner Helping to share the holiday spirit in a very special way, the 17th annual Homeless Awareness Dinner was held at the Sharonville Convention Center on the evening of Dec. 11. The annual holiday dinner brings together individuals and families who are currently struggling with homelessness for a wonderful dinner and celebration. The Sharonville Convention Center along with Spectra Food Services and Goodwill organize this extra special evening which includes many volunteers from the staff of all the participating organizations. The annual holiday dinner offers a wonderful meal, a DJ spinning tunes,
and an extra special visit from Santa for children participating in the event. Transportation to the Sharonville Convention Center for participants was coordinated by Goodwill’s Special Projects team who worked with local partner shelters to help bring individuals and families to the center. Busses were provided by Queen City Transportation and helped individuals from nine local homeless shelters to attend this special event. A special part of this wonderful evening is always the many volunteers who help to serve the dinner and make participants feel welcome for the holiday celebration and join in the festiv-
ities. Many volunteers have been participating in this extra-special event for many years. One of the highlights of this year’s party, was the fun craft table where kids could design their own stockings. More than 50 of this year’s holiday guests were children under the age of 16. The attendees currently receive support from the following organizations including: Salvation Army, YWCA, Anna Louise Inn, Hatton Center, Parkway Center, Volunteers of America, Bethany House, Tender Mercies and Joseph House.
