Crime & Courts
Victim and perpetrator of 'the Poet' crime hoax in Wichita four decades ago has died
A woman who was the victim and perpetrator of a crime hoax solved by Wichita police nearly four decades ago has died.
Ruth Finley unknowingly tormented herself as "The Poet" in the late 1970s and early 1980s crime mystery that included letters written in rhyme and a stabbing at the parking lot of Towne East Square.
Finley died May 30 at age 89. She had worked at Southwestern Bell Telephone Company, enjoyed knitting and donated hats and scarves to U.S. troops in Afghanistan and volunteered to translate textbooks into braille after learning to code, according to an obituary.
But 40 years ago, Finley was the victim in a real-life crime mystery that would later become the subject of a book and made-for-television movie, according to The Eagle's archives. The purported harassment by the Poet started in 1978, taking place during the same time Dennis Rader terrorized Wichita as the BTK serial killer.
Finley reported to police that in addition to the hundreds of poetic letters threatening physical harm and extorting money, she was the victim of cut phone lines on Christmas Eve, a Christmas wreath set on fire, a kidnapping, a 12-inch butcher knife at her workplace, and receiving Molotov cocktails, chunks of concrete, a bottle of urine and a jar of feces.
She was hospitalized after she was stabbed three times with an ice pick in the parking lot of Towne East Square in August 1979.
But when the Poet began writing threatening letters to the wife of Police Chief Richard LaMunyon, he then took over the case. He suspected that either Finley or her husband was behind the Poet and devised a plan to find out.
The case came to a surprising conclusion in 1981 when police photographed Finley mailing one of the Poet's letters to herself. She admitted the hoax to investigators — including stabbing herself in the mall parking lot.
The investigation cost the city $370,000 in 1982 dollars — the equivalent of just over $1 million in 2019 dollars, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics inflation calculator. No criminal charges were filed against her after the Sedgwick County district attorney said a psychiatric examination showed her actions as the Poet were not malicious.
"Finley had unknowingly been tormenting herself as a result of psychiatric problems stemming from a childhood of horrific physical and sexual abuse," The Eagle previously reported.
She spent six years in therapy working with psychiatrist Andrew Pickens exploring the repeated sexual abuse she suffered as a little girl in Missouri. She had been raped by a neighbor when she was 3 years old, and both Finley and Pickens said the childhood experiences likely led to the creation of the Poet.
Therapy found that Finley had been bound by a red bandana during the sexual assaults. Police said during their investigation that a red bandana or handkerchief was a symbol used by the Poet.
Finley expressed her memories of the sexual assaults during therapy in a child's poetic first-person account. Her sessions helped her understand that the little girl in the poems was herself, and only she could soothe and protect the child.
''All through therapy I was wanting him (Pickens) to take care of that little girl," Finley said in an interview 13 years after the hoax ended. ''... I have no idea where I'd be without therapy."
After the mystery of the Poet was solved, Finley thanked her family, hospital staff and police officers in a November 1981 interview.
"I think I may have died and gone to hell," she said. "I think I'm coming back, though, thanks to the kind nursing staff and doctors at Wesley Medical Center psychiatric unit, and to an understanding family who stood by me, especially Ed (her husband) and my loyal and dependable sister, Jean.
"I'm equally grateful to the fine officers of the Wichita Police Department, who in the end saved me from either a mental breakdown or my own self-destruction. It's been a nightmare for all involved."

Great Spaces: Pub Ten
One of Fourteen included in Our Great Spaces for Your Corporate & Holiday Events
Pub Ten
5270 Peachtree Parkway #118b
Peachtree Corners 30092
The friendly, neighborhood bar and grill with that Cheers sort of vibe, "where everybody knows your name," Pub Ten, is a cozy place to consider celebrating the season's social events. Owner, Evan Hanson and I had a fun chat about just that. Evan also does the pastry work at the pub.
"I have a lot of regulars. They start to walk in the door and the bartender is making their drink before they even ask for it. Or we're already ordering their food. I want everybody to feel comfortable and enjoy themselves. I want everybody to have great service, good food, enjoy the ambiance, and listen to some fun music," beamed Hanson.
This craft kitchen and bar serves-up an elevated take on pub food, with a bit of a twist. They like their food to be a little bit crazy—like the lamb burger with banh mi slaw. Instead of nachos consisting of corn tortilla chips with ground beef on top, you're going to get fried wontons topped with Korean BBQ brisket. Besides avoiding the traditional however, the old favorites are on hand, because plenty of people still enjoy a regular burger, and the comfort of a grilled cheese sandwich.
Evan serves up the best wings in town, in my opinion. They're smoked, baked, fried, and then tossed in your sauce of choice. My favorite is the Sweet Chili Thai sauce, but their made-from-scratch 10 spice dry rub is popular too.
On the Pub-Tenth Day of Christmas…
A sit-down dinner, a buffet, or appetizers, all scenarios are possible here. "We try to accommodate the needs of the group," said Hanson. They have both family and business events at the pub.
There's a semi-private room where events are usually held, and the main dining area where the bar is located. Generally, people rent out the quasi-secluded room. If seated, 30-35 people can be accommodated. If it's a standing/cocktail shindig, one can invite 40 to 55 guests.
If booking this semi-private room, there is a minimum dollar spend, depending on the day of the week and the time. You can also rent the entire space as long as the minimum spend is met.
Good News! Pub Ten also provides catering off-site for up to about 100 people. Hanson advises against certain items that don't travel well, like some of the fried foods, although some of her customers insist on getting the Mac Tots delivered – in which case she advises they be kept in the oven so they stay crispy. When catering, all sauces are kept separate from the food to avoid anything getting soggy.
If you need servers, she's happy to send her staff along to help you, and allows you to pay them directly.
How About a Holiday Party with Pub Ten?
It's nice to have a space exclusively dedicated to your party. "We are so reasonably priced compared to some others in the area. Again, we're that hometown, sit down and feel comfortable kind of place. You'll feel like you're at home. We'll make sure we take good care of you," vowed Hanson.
For the most part, the party food comes from the usual menu. You can also provide guests with a reduced menu if you prefer. If you want to go off menu, that is absolutely an option. A nacho bar, with all the fixings is a popular idea. That way everyone can create their own and get it just the way they like. Chafing dishes are used for a buffet style meal. "We try to make it easy for anybody to get whatever they want," said Hanson.
Pub Ten can adapt the menu according to your dietary needs. "We can cater to any dietary restrictions considering what's on the menu. If you need it to be gluten free, we can make sure it's gluten free for you. If you need some vegetarian options, we have great vegetarian options. We have a veggie burger that's amazing. I have a keto bowl right now that's a spaghetti squash bake, no pasta, and it's amazing, with chicken. If you need it to be vegetarian, we can just leave the chicken off," said Hanson.
Book it!
For larger groups, a week's notice helps them to plan accordingly. For the holidays, Evan suggests starting to book in October, if not sooner, because several corporate events get booked here annually.
- Monday 5 p.m. – 9 p.m.
- Tuesday 11 a.m. – 10 p.m.
- Wednesday 11 a.m. -10 p.m.
- Thursday 11 a.m. – 11 p.m.
- Friday 11 a.m. – 12 a.m.
- Saturday 11 a.m. – 12 a.m.
- Sunday 11 a.m. – 9 p.m.
Instead of a room rental fee, you'll have to spend a certain amount, depending upon the night of the week. A normally busy night like a Friday will be more expensive. If you reach that predetermined amount, there's no extra charge. If you haven't met that minimum amount, then your tab will be bumped-up. "I'll make sure you get the best of the best. I try to be fair," promised Hanson.
Pricing will vary between buffets and seated dinners.
- Low: grilled cheese sandwiches, burgers, and such.
- High: steak, Spanish bowl, Brazilian bowl, and the higher-end items.
Alcohol tabs for parties can be handled in a number of ways. Evan is open to what works best for you. For example, you may opt for an open bar scenario, minus one or two liquors that may be beyond what the agreed-upon price-point would afford.
To inquire about hosting a friendly and intimate holiday party at Pub Ten, contact Owner, Evan Hanson at 678-691-5041.

Great Spaces: Ten Bistro
One of Fourteen included in Our Great Spaces for Your Corporate & Holiday Events
Ten Bistro
5005 Peachtree Parkway #820
Peachtree Corners 30092
Ten Bistro is the vision of Owner and Chef Jesse Kauffman who initially spent a long time on the corporate side of the restaurant business. Much of his formation included eight weeks of training in the kitchen, at each new restaurant that he managed.
He comes from a family of foodies; his mother was always very focused on organic, healthy foods, and his grandfather was a life-long baker. He rolled into the restaurant business very naturally.
When this attractive space became available in his community, he jumped at the chance to open his own, and just like that, Kauffman became both a Peachtree Corners resident and restauranteur. Although he didn't realize it at the time, he decided on a brilliant way to get the neighborhood to rally behind him.
He put out the word to the 10 major subdivisions in Peachtree Corners, soliciting favorite recipes from his neighbors. "There's always that one person known for their white chicken chili at the tennis team party," chuckled Kauffman. So in a genuine attempt to find out what his fellow citizens would enjoy eating, his initial menu emerged, complete with the names of the neighbors who had volunteered them and the subdivisions they hailed from.
"So that's where the "10" came from. And Bistro, just because a bistro has everything from French onion soup, to a good fresh fish, to filet mignon, and good organic salads. So that's Ten Bistro!"
The Ten Bistro Noël
Both corporate and family gatherings on the smaller side, which do not necessarily require a private event space, are welcome in the restaurant. If a private function is a requirement, buyout of the restaurant is always an option.
The best number for a party size here is 50 or less—50 would take-up the whole restaurant. They've had parties of up to 65, with some guests spilling over onto the patio, but you can't always count on the weather.
How About a Holiday Party with Ten Bistro?
Great news! Kauffman and his team do provide off-site catering for 10-150 people. Call the restaurant to discuss your vision and Ten Bistro can come to you!
For a group reserving the whole restaurant, they'll start off with either passed around appetizers, or set them up on the bar. Envision brie wrapped in puff pastry with pineapple chili marmalade, asparagus fries, pitta and hummus, vegetable crudités, and bruschetta toast points.
Once guests are seated two choices of salad are offered; either Caesar or the House Salad.
Entrees can be served one of two ways; family-style, with guests being served from platters brought out by servers or plated in advance and brought out. For family-style, "servers come out with large platters of truffle mashed potatoes, green beans, and asparagus, and serve everybody. Then we come out with 3 different proteins and everybody can have all of them, like salmon, steak, and chicken. So, you get a nice full plate that we keep serving until people are full," explained Kauffman.
Alternatively, you may develop a menu from which guests will be able to choose one of three entrees if the party is large. If the party is 20 or smaller, guests can have a choice of up to five entrees. "That's where we can include vegan, vegetarian, seafood, chicken, steak, for a nice broad coverage. Then we just plate it, and bring it out," offered Kauffman.
Desserts are the grand finale of either the aforementioned scenario.
Dietary restrictions can be accommodated here. Whether you're a vegetarian, or you're avoiding gluten, or dairy. Meals can be easily made per your request. Because everything is made to order, any undesired ingredients can be easily left off.
Kauffman has always had his finger on the pulse of every food decision at the restaurant. For the past seven years he's shifted his focus from shaking hands and kissing babies in the front of the house to the kitchen even more so. There's a reason the "boutiquey" restaurant is often buzzing.
Artwork from local artists adorns the walls of this eclectic establishment. If you should find a piece that speaks to you, they're for sale – all proceeds go to the artists who created them.
Book it!
Any day is a good day to host a party at Ten Bistro. Kauffman recommends scheduling your holiday season event one month in advance.
From Sunday through Thursday, the group would have to spend $4,000 to rent the whole restaurant. This includes an open bar and a four-course meal.
The buyout price for Friday and Saturday is $5k, including a four-course menu, an open bar, tax and gratuity.
Daytime parties that take place on Saturday or Sunday can be done for much less: $20 per person, with a 20-person minimum.
For smaller groups of 15 to 25 that don't need to rent the whole space for a private venue, it's from $15 to $20 per person for lunch groups. For three courses dinners, it's $27 per person, alcohol would not be included. It would be billed separately.
To book your holiday fête or soirée at Ten Bistro, call Owner and Chef Jesse Kauffman at 770-375-8330.

Great Spaces: Royal Thai Bistro

Royal Thai Bistro
6365 Spalding Drive, Suite A
Peachtree Corners 30092
Royal Thai Bistro is a family-owned, Asian Fusion restaurant offering in-house and to-go dining. There's an uplifting story behind this restaurant. It's a story of hard work, a love of our community, and of course, a love of flavorful Thai food.
Breathing life back into a great neighborhood jewel with a fresh Asian Fusion twist, Owner and Managing Partner Kenny Suphapol once worked in Royal Thai Cuisine. When it closed after serving the community for 25 years, he decided to purchase the space, pick the former owner's brain regarding everything he loved about her restaurant, and he opened up shop again with his own personal touches, in the form of Royal Thai Bistro.
That was almost four years ago. Today, this welcoming neighborhood establishment offers weekly lunch specials and monthly Happy Hour dinner specials that are a big hit among the locals.
The Most Wonderful Thai of the Year
There are approximately 33 chairs, a long silver-colored, tufted back, leather banquette against the back wall, and a smaller adjacent room with 3 booths. Tables are elegantly set with dark linens. Royal Bistro can seat a party of 25-30 people for your holiday event.
If you'd prefer a standing-only cocktail hour type party, with passed appetizers, that is also an option in the main dining room.
How About a Holiday Party with Royal Thai Bistro?
Every dish served here is made fresh to order. "We use only fresh ingredients to make our Thai Fusion food," stated Suphapol. Their aim is to serve up the unique flavors of Thai cuisine with a slight twist, making it friendlier on American palates. "For example, we'll put a traditional, Thai Nam Tok salad in a sandwich, and serve it with fries," explained Suphapol. "We can make dishes super spicy, or as spicy as you like."
There are gluten-free and vegetarian options available. They're able to cater to certain food allergies as well. They try their best to meet your needs and are happy to prepare dishes especially for you if you have dietary restrictions.
While Royal Thai Bistro does not cater off-site, they do prepare large quantities of food for pick-up so you can still take the Thai party home. For a large affair, five days of advance notice would be beneficial.
Book it!
Two days' notice is sufficient for a party of 10-12. For parties of 25-30 people, five days' notice is advised. While they encourage customers to book as early as possible, they've also been able to accept large party bookings in as little as two to three days in advance.
Royal Thai Bistro is open for lunch Monday through Friday from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Dinner hours are Sunday through Thursday 5 p.m. to 9 p.m., and Friday and Saturday 5 p.m. to 10 p.m.
If your party takes place here, free refills of Thai tea and coffee are included. Beer and wine would be charged on a per consumption basis.
Food pricing will depend on the number and type of dishes you request. Per person rates can start at $12 to $15, which would include appetizers and entrees. More expensive selections can go up to $25 per person, including three to four appetizers, not served all at once, but staggered and spread out. When everyone is done, a main course would be served.
To discuss the details of your Thai-rrific holiday party at Royal Bistro, call Owner, Kenny Suphapol at 828-635-9745.

Great Spaces: Osteria di Mare

Osteria di Mare
5005 Peachtree Parkway
Peachtree Corners 30092
It's easy to understand why Miami native and Osteria di Mare Owner Andrew Hoppen knows his way around seafood. He first launched the seafood-centric Taqueria del Mar in Peachtree Corners. More recently he's also been regaling residents with this cool, little Italian spot since he opened-up two years ago.
Some of his regulars joined me at the white leather chair lined bar where I waited to speak to him in between errands. They were very friendly and raved about him as he slipped in and out of the kitchen, and zipped to and fro, pouring wine behind the bar and serving customers in the dining room. It's a cute, little spot with an exposed brick wall bearing the logo, and a wall of San Pellegrino bottles glowing green in the front window.
If you'd like to celebrate the holidays with a little taste of Italy, there are a number of ways to go about it. Hoppen and his team can be amenable to pretty much anything you have in mind in their all-scratch kitchen and provide your guests with 5-star service whether it's a corporate function or a gathering with family and friends.
"We're flexible. We can do anything from simple hors d'oeuvres, a pizza party, to steak and lobster, and anything in between," said Hoppen.
When You Have a Holiday Party at Osteria di Mare, That's Amore
While there is no private event space here, a portion of the dining room can be dedicated to your holiday gathering for no fee. So, if privacy is not a concern for you, there is room for a party of 30 people taking up two rows, during regular business hours.
If you want to reserve the entire restaurant which seats up to 80 invitees for your function, there is a minimum spend of $2000. "It's easy to get to that—food alone would do it," said Hoppen.
One can opt for either a seated dining experience or a cocktail hour style reception at Osteria di Mare.
How About a Holiday Party with Osteria di Mare?
This locally owned and operated Osteria can make your holiday party plans work, however simple or elaborate your vision may be.
Hosts can view the catering menu selections on their website. One can also order from the regular menu for an event. Almost everything on the menu is gluten-free. They even carry gluten-free pasta, from an Italian supplier, naturally. There are plenty of vegetarian options on the menu, and almost all of their dishes can be made vegetarian.
Good News! Osteria di Mare offers complete off-site catering from boxed lunches, to buffets, to full service with bartenders and servers. They can provide virtually anything patrons need.
Boardboxes.com is Hoppen's latest venture, providing boxed meals and highly stylized charcuterie boards of all sizes. These are the Ultimate Grand Supreme of meat and cheese boards. Imagine a 20-foot-long charcuterie board surrounded by live foliage, artistically arranged by a florist, all set up down the middle of a long table, like a table-runner, filled with an assortment of cured meats, cheeses and crackers—enough to feed 800 people! The items repeat all the way down the table, so everyone has access to the full assortment of the delicious spread.
Book it!
Depending on how extensive the party is, you could plan to have a party here in as little as two days. They're only open for dinner Tuesday – Saturday, so it would be easy enough to open for lunch on any day during the holiday season, which they often do, to allow for several corporate lunches.
Any event that fits in during their "off" hours is fine with them, in fact that's when they prefer to do most of their party business.
A private party is considered catering and treated as such. Generally, there is a per person charge. Alcohol is charged by consumption. They are open to providing drink tickets for those interested. It's a good way to ensure everyone has a maximum of two drinks at a corporate event, for example.
- Low: Charcuterie platters under the $6 to $8 per person range.
- $8 to $10 Appetizer bruschettas, light hors d'oeuvres and alcohol priced per whatever you order.
- Mid: $12 to $18 Pastas, pizzas, including salads in place of appetizers, bread, and dessert. Appetizers can be included for an up-charge.
- High: $20 to $30 Steak, seafood, pastas, a combo of anything from lower tiers, sides, salads, bread, and dessert.
Customized charcuterie platters can be built to any proportion and built-in to all of the tiers. If you'd like to get on board with a holiday party at Osteria di Mare, contact Owner Andrew Hoppen at 678-691-0344.

Cardiff beckons for Gianluigi Buffon, and an elusive Champions League winners' medal is not the only prestigious prize within the gangly reach of one of the great goalkeepers.At 39, Buffon feared his chance to win club football's biggest competition might have gone after featuring in losing Juve teams in the 2003 and 2015 finals.With Real Madrid the more likely opponents, shutting out Cristiano Ronaldo would inevitably bolster Buffon's prospects of ending the Portuguese striker and Lionel Messi's recent monopoly on world football's leading individual award.The well-traveled Claudio Ranieri, whose long career included a stint managing Buffon at Juventus, says the case for Buffon is founded on more than patriotic fervor.Buffon was among the club's leading stars who opted to stay and he has been a pillar of its rebirth as the predominant force in Italian football.

SALLISAW, Okla. (KFSM) — Sallisaw Police were involved in a fatal shooting Thursday (March 14) morning, but footage of the incident will not be released because there isn't any.
The police department does have body cameras for every officer on patrol, but during this shooting, the officers weren't wearing them.
Sequoyah County Sheriff Larry Lane confirmed that the officer-involved shooting took place just south of Sallisaw on Highway 59 near the I-40 interchange.
Sallisaw Police received a call early Thursday from someone describing a suspicious person they say matched a manhunt suspect out of Missouri. Two officers responded and found a man in his 20s matching the description from the caller walking along Highway 59.
When officers tried to talk to him, they say 27-year-old Shawn Watie pulled a knife, and Sallisaw Officer Devin Harriman and Investigator Coty Biles opened fire.
Usually, body camera footage from an officer would be part of the investigation, but Sallisaw Captain Jeff Murray says Officer Harriman was at home at the time with his patrol car.
"He was called out on his regular days off due to another officer being sick," Murray said. "From the time he got in his car and was available for calls...29 seconds later this officer was assigned to this call on highway 59 with the possibility of it being this escapee from Missouri."
Murray says Officer Harriman was called out before he could stop by the police station to get his docked body camera.
Investigator and Detective Coty Biles does not wear a police uniform and was at the station when he was called out to the scene. Murray says Sallisaw investigators do not wear body cameras.
Both officers are on paid leave while the OSBI investigates the deadly shooting.
After each shift, officers have to dock their cameras to charge at the station. They also can download footage to the cloud from their entire shift, but sometimes that can be a lengthy process.
Murray says the police department only has two stations that dock multiple body cameras and it does not have individual docking stations.
Murray says the department stopped using dash cams and put that money towards the body cameras in hopes of capturing more useful angles from an officer.


text: So I had a dream of getting a BFP (big fat positive (pregnancy test)) last night. I took a test then plopped on the bed next to my husband and showed him. We were in a bright white room like the houses in Greece with a huge window and billowing curtans. There was only a bed in the room. It was so vivid and nice and we were just smiling and happy and I woke up and had to remind myself it was just a dream. I would be due around the 27th if I did get one in real life. It's too early for me to test right now. I've had dreams of being pregnant but never of taking a test. Has anyone here ever had a dream like this or similar and get a BFP (big fat positive (pregnancy test)) in real life 😍 Trying not to get my hopes up. Lol

John has over thirty years' experience providing executive leadership for cross-disability nonprofit organizations and private sector companies that are focused on creating the policy change and developing a more inclusive world.

John is skilled at creating innovative research, policy development, direct service initiatives and securing funding from partners like the Massachusetts Executive Office of Health and Human Services, Blue Cross Blue Shield Foundation, and Brandeis University that drive those initiatives forward. John's time at DPC has allowed him to introduce a new vision for the disability civil rights movement under the banner of "About Us, By Us." This theory posits that people with disabilities now possess the requisite skills, experience and educational background to successfully direct and run the organizations which provide services to our community.

Dennis is active in a number of state and federal initiatives that advance the values of the independent living, and recovery movements as key elements of health and wellness equity.

Dennis heads DPC's YesHealth Participatory Action Research team which among its projects, is currently working on two initiatives that strive to advance the voice of people with disabilities in the Opioid Substance Use Disorder community and enhance the integration of independent living and recovery principles within the Massachusetts dual eligibles demonstration.

Is winter history?
Well, it depends on which groundhog you ask.
Spring is in the air, according to New York's own forecasting rodents - Staten Island's Chuck and his Long Island counterpart, Malverne Mel.
Neither of the woodchucks saw their shadows when they emerged from hibernation early Saturday morning.
But Pennsylvania's famed warm-weather spoiler, Punxsutawney Phil, spotted his when he was pulled out of his tree stump.
"As I look around me, a bright sky I see, and a shadow beside me. Six more weeks of winter it will be," translated the world's alleged expert in "groundhog-ese," William Cooper, president of Punxsutawney's Inner Circle.
Tradition says that if a groundhog sees its shadow on Feb. 2, it means six more weeks of winter chills are in the forecast.
But the National Weather Service doesn't think Phil, Chuck or Mel should quit their day jobs.
"We don't put any stock in it. We're the scientists. Weather predictions - that's what we do," meteorologist Pat Maloit said. "But I would like to point out that the meteorological beginning of spring is in the middle of March, which amazingly enough is about six weeks from now."
But City Council Speaker Christine Quinn is putting her bets on Staten Island Chuck.
"Staten Island beats Pennsylvania every day and twice on Sunday, and we're going to beat the Patriots tomorrow," she said, referring to the Super Bowl.

The Map Thief
Terrell's second novel far surpasses her mediocre first in this tale of mystery, suspense, and adventure. Chapters alter between three storylines, all interconnected by one very special map. Beijing, China, in 1421 is the setting for the story of a map maker, Ma Zhi, whose work will lead to the first true map of the world. A tale beginning in Lisbon, Portugal, in 1496 tells of Vasco da Gama's voyage to find a sea route to India, and his navigator, Antonio Coehlo, who guards Portugal's most secret treasure: a map that already shows the way.
Finally, in New York in the present day, it is Mara Coyne's job to find a centuries-old map that was stolen from an archaeological dig her client was sponsoring in China. But as Mara begins her investigation, she realizes that the map is far more valuable than anyone has ever imagined and her client's motives more sinister than she suspected.
Interweaving historical detail and suspense, this is a fine story about stolen artifacts and the thieves and traders who work with them. While the characters are easily forgettable, and her climax a little disappointing, the globetrotting adventure on which Terrell takes her readers moves the plot along and ends with a gratifying conclusion.

Unsecured personal loans from marketplace lenders can be used for nearly any purpose. Here are nine:
Credit card refinance
Got credit card debt? If you're like more than 45 percent of all U.S. households, the answer is yes, and according to Nerdwallet, the average amount owed per household is about $15,432. Refinancing higher-interest credit card balances into a more affordable personal loan with a great rate could save you thousands of dollars over the life of the loan.
Even if you have less than perfect credit, an unsecured personal loan can help you save money, improve your credit rating and give you a fresh start to get your financial life moving forward.
Credit cards can be useful, but they are dangerous if you don't have the means to pay off the balance every month. And just one late payment can send the interest rate soaring upward of 30 percent APR. Anyone who's been in this situation knows it's difficult to chip away at a debt with such an exorbitant interest rate.
If you're only making minimum payments each month, it's time to consider refinancing your higher-interest credit into a lower, fixed-rate personal loan from a consumer-friendly marketplace lender such as loanDepot.
Home improvements/renovations
Sometimes it's building your dream kitchen or adding on another bedroom. Other times it's replacing a leaky roof or a faulty water heater. Either way, a personal loan could be your answer.
No matter the size of your home-improvement project, a personal loan of up to $35,000 can help you realize your dream. It can also save you money when compared to using a credit card, even one that offers a low introductory interest rate that skyrockets after 6 or 8 months. Some personal loans, including those from loanDepot, can be paid back over 3 or 5 years and have no pre-payment penalty.
If you're planning to sell your home in the near future, it's a good idea to keep in mind that some home improvements, such as an updated kitchen and bath. Your odds of a higher return on investment increase dramatically when you do as much of the work as possible yourself.
Debt consolidation
You can't borrow your way out of debt, but you can save hundreds of dollars a year and speed up the process by consolidating higher-interest loans, credit cards, lines of credit or even back-taxes into an affordable, fixed-rate personal loan.
Since the principle amount decreases with every monthly minimum payment, a personal loan used for debt consolidation can help you eliminate debt and boost your credit score at the same time.
You can also stop writing multiple checks every month to a slew of different creditors and instead have one monthly payment with one interest rate. Debt consolidation may be just the tool you need to give yourself a fresh start and pay off debt.
Vacation of a lifetime
You work hard and every once in a while you need to play hard, too. If it's time to treat yourself and your family to something special, affording that dream vacation is easier than ever with a personal loan.
Traveling is already stressful enough, paying for it doesn't have to be.
Major purchases
Everyone knows the pain of dealing with unexpected or urgently needed expenses. A personal loan makes buying appliances, furniture, or even a new car quick and easy. Plus you get the comfort of knowing that your payment will never increase and the loan will be paid off in a set amount of time, like 3 or 5 years.
You can even make the large purchase on a credit card to earn points or rewards and then use the personal loan to pay off the balance.
Energy efficiency
With rising utility costs, it's starting to look more and more appealing and cost effective to make your home more energy efficient. Whether it's installing new triple-pane windows or rooftop solar panels a personal loan can help you 'go green.'
And a great part about going green is that by making simple changes, such as replacing your landscaping with drought-resistant plants, you're helping protect the environment now and for the future.
Running your business
Every small business owner knows the struggle of managing cash flow on a daily basis. From balancing payroll and taxes to buying equipment and supplies to fulfill a big contract, every once in a while you need some financial help. A traditional small business loan can require turning over all your business' financial records and a lengthy approval process. A personal loan up to $35,000 can be approved and funded in just a few days.
A personal loan is issued to you, the individual, not your business, and can be used for anything you choose. That might really come in handy if your business is young and doesn't have the track record to qualify for credit on its own. loanDepot personal loans carry fixed rates and repayment terms of three or five years, depending on the amount, with no prepayment penalties.
Medical expenses
A U.S. Consumer Financial Protection Bureau study found that nearly half of all debt in collections is medical debt. Unexpected medical expenses are one of the leading causes of bankruptcy in the United States, but there's no reason a large medical bill should destroy your financial life. With a personal loan, you can pay your medical expenses on your own terms and stop the harassing collections calls.
You can also use a personal loan for elective procedures such as fertility treatments, laser eye surgery, or cosmetic surgeries. Because elective treatments aren't life threatening, many insurance companies only cover a small portion, if any, of the costs.
Moving expenses
Like any major life decision, a big move requires planning and budgeting to be successful. Before you start to pack, it's important to sit down and calculate exactly how much it will cost to get your from Point A to Point B. You may be surprised to learn that an interstate move can cost $5,000 or more. While it's true you can save money by doing it yourself, that can take a toll on your body and relationships.A personal loan from loanDepot can help ease the sticker shock and help you quickly get your new home in order.

Three Hundred And Nineteen Reasons To Cry
Just for the heck of it, I took a look to see where Jack Nicklaus ranks on the PGA Tour's all-time money list.
The answer is 173rd, with slightly more than $5.73 million U.S.
That helps show how much times have changed. Nicklaus ranks second in all-time victories with 73, one ahead of Tiger Woods, but the nearly 70 Golden Bear would have to clone himself and come back if he wanted to maintain even that falling ranking on the money list.
Nicklaus's money-list fate, though, is still a lot better than Arnold Palmer's.
The King is fifth on the all-time list of victories, with 62, and he's destined to stay there for a very long time. No other current PGA Tour player is yet in the top 10 (the cutoff is now 39, shared by Tom Watson and Gene Sarazen).
However, Palmer, who just turned 80, is an astounding 319th on the money list with $1,861,857.
That's right, less than $2 million in official career earnings. I wonder if he ever regrets being born a half-century too soon.
By the way, there are two Canadians in the top 40 in career earnings: MIke Weir is 11th at $25.94 million, meaning he could nudge up against the $26-million mark with a good finish in this week's Tour Championship, while Stephen Ames is 38th at $16.83 million.
I wonder what the late Sam Snead would have to say about all this: Recognized as the all-time leader in wins with 82, Snead isn't even on the official money list because his career largely predated the formation of the modern PGA Tour. When you consider all players with official earnings, the man who's No. 1 in victories is somewhere south of 500th in earnings with $713,155.
That's slightly more than one-half as much as the winner of this week's Tour Championship will receive, and that's before the overall FedEx Cup champion's $10-million bonus.

Meeting Report
Murray Bridge Rotarian Jack Reddin was thanked by Rotarian Roxanne Rowland for his presentation to Murray Bridge High School Students World of Animal Studies. Michael Bagshaw was also acknowledged for his leadership role in Operation Flinders by Jenny Phillips. President Elect Simon Sickerdick acted as Chairman and President Lesley Murray opened the Club Assembly discussion with aspects of our overall planning for 2019-20 simplified into our main goals for the year.
1 Connect with Youth and the Lonely
2 Increasing our Impact,
3 Engaging Members and the Community,
4 Increasing our ability to Adapt.
Assistant Treasurer Glenn Obryan outlined our financial position and some significant new key accounting procedures. Sam Cozens acknowledged the significant input of Treasurer Brenton Nicholson to our club in his role as Treasurer. Simon Sickerdick as Club Service Director outlined the support for the Riding for the Disabled Project, membership and name badges as issues already discussed as a group. Sue Foster in her role of Community Director had 14 events in her committee's plan already. Roxanne Rowland as International Director had some exciting new international projects. Vocational Director Robin Le Gallez had nine significant projects to discuss in his committee's planning. Christine Wilersdorf as RALY Rotary Assisting Local Youth Director will also be very busy and includes some new projects in Youth Connection, membership, Alumini, and Mentoring.
Timor Leste - The Adventure Continues
Timor Leste adventures continue.
On completion of the planned water project we traveled further into the remote eastern regions to follow up on possible new projects and inspect previous water accomplishments.
This is a community well revitalised by Max and his team some years ago. Now used by hundreds of villagers who trek for their clean water, bathing, washing etc.
We ventured further up the mountains to a school in Quelicai to inspect the needs to supply further water to 1,000 students and staff. Even though they have 2,000 litres coming in from a local spring it's hardly enough for 1,000 people. Rotary has plans to install a 20,000 litre tank storing rain water from harvested rain water from the buildings.
The students were all excited to see Rotarians who promises fresh water. Prior to Rotary tapping the spring to supply the current water each student had to bring 5 litres of water and a stick for the fire every Monday. The water was for drinking and cooking, the stick was to fuel the fires for boiling the water before drinking. The classrooms may not be in tip top shape but the students are all dressed immaculately.
We had to trek through the dense jungle to check out the spring which appears to be drying up. A real concern to the school. Hence the need to harvest water from the roof top. Difficult when the buildings have no gutters.
Confirmation the spring water I'd down nearly 40% on this time last year.
More information on Timor Leste at our next Rotary Meeting on Tuesday 13th August.

David Ginola has hailed Gareth Bale and claimed the Tottenham winger is in the same league as Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.
Bale has been in sensational form and won praise from former Real Madrid superstar – and current sporting director – Zinedine Zidane earlier this week.
And Ginola admits he is in awe of the 23-year-old, who scored his 17th Premier League goal of the season against Swansea at the weekend.
"He's fantastic, especially this season," said the Frenchman, a hero at White Hart Lane after a memorable three-year spell in north London.
"The kid still has so much to learn about the game but, at his age, he already knows a lot. He does a lot for Spurs. Scoring goals, doing so many things. He's got the strength, he's got everything.
"The main difference between Messi, Ronaldo and Gareth Bale is that they are not playing in the same league. Messi and Ronaldo are still in the Champions League and they're both scoring over 50 or 60 goals per season. It's quite a lot!
"But Gareth Bale is not a striker and he has still managed to score goals – very important ones. He is definitely in that league."
Zidane's endorsement of Bale has fuelled speculation Real Madrid could make a move for the player this summer.
But Ginola has urged Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy to do all he can to keep the Welshman.
He added: "My concern is when you've got a good player in an English team, you always see him leaving the club and I hope that Daniel Levy will find a way to keep him because if Tottenham want to be successful in the future, they have to keep their best asset and Gareth Bale is one of a kind."
And the Frenchman has also backed Bale to follow in his foosteps and be crowned PFA Player of the Year.
Ginola was the last Tottenham player to take home the prestigious prize in 1999 and said: "It will be tough but I will say Gareth Bale [as my best player of the season].
"I'm a Spurs man myself and to see another Spurs player being made Player of the Year, that will be good.

The final nail in Prince Bandar bin Sultan's coffin did not come when the former Saudi intelligence chief lost control of the Syria file to his political rival the interior minister Prince Mohammed bin Nayef. It was when Bin Nayef went to King Abdullah and obtained from him a written mandate to keep the file. Such is the mutual lack trust at the highest reaches of the Saudi royal family.
Bandar was sacked as intelligence chief on Tuesday, but his fall from grace had been a long time coming. For decades, Bandar's worth to the King lay in his relationship with Washington, both as an insider to successive occupants of the White House and in Congress. That ended when Barack Obama balked at bombing Bashar al Assad after the chemical attack outside Damascus. Bandar had been pressing Washington to attack, and had assured his King that the US would attack.
Bandar had, in fact, been burning this particular candle at both ends. He had infuriated the US when it found out that military and financial aid given by Saudi intelligence had ended up in the hands of Syrian fighters who gave their allegiance to al Qaida. For America this was a double blow -- the Saudi money was not toppling Assad, but it was advancing the fortunes of al Nusra front and ISIS.
Syria was not the only stain on Bandar's record. None of his schemes appeared to be working. He made a pact with Saudi's oldest enemies in Yemen, the Houthis, but Saudis still lost influence in what it always considered to be its back yard.
While senior members of the Saudi royal family are united about the threat they perceive from the Muslim Brotherhood, there are pragmatic voices prepared to challenge the neo-conservative hawkishness of the former intelligence chief. Openly threatening Qatar with a land and sea blockade, over the Gulf state's foreign policy now turns out to have been an unwise move.
Half the Gulf Cooperation Council have parted company with Riyadh as a result. Oman, Kuwait as well as Qatar are outside its reach. And Iran has opportunistically expanded into the space created by the kingdom's receding influence . Not for nothing had the kingdom been traditionally cautious in its foreign policy. That caution had been thrown to winds under the Bandar.
Saudi Arabia has not only lost all meaningful contact with Iran, but also Turkey where the AKP prime minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan lives to fight another day having received a boost in the polls. It is not sensible for the Saudis to have alienated both Turkey and Iran, and there are calmer heads in Riyadh who now recognize this. It is inherently dangerous for the Saudis to have regional rivals in Turkey who are prepared to champion the Sunni cause.
This is why one of the first calls of congratulation Erdogan received after the local elections earlier this month was from Prince Muqrin, recently named the second in line to the throne.
Egypt is another minus for Bandar. Again, the cause of the internal criticism within the Saudi royal household is not some profound divergence over the need to support the military coup. It is over the continuing cost of doing so. Egypt is becoming a black hole for Saudi and Emirati money, and the country is showing few signs of stabilizing. Bandar's disappearance is unlikely therefore to spark an immediate change in Saudi foreign policy. But it does mean that one of its leading motors has now been turned off.

Which incentives work best?
Which incentives to opt for?
It's really a question of paramount importance if you want your students to do well. Should you use extrinsic or intrinsic motivation? Which one works best? Which one has long-term effects on learning outcomes and creativity?
Let's first define extrinsic and intrinsic motivation!
- Extrinsic motivation:
Incentives motivate learning. They include privileges and receiving praise from the teacher who determines the appropriate encouragement for a desired behavior.
- Intrinsic motivation:
Internal motivation is longer lasting and more self-directive than is external motivation. The learners who learn faster are those who feel an internal need for a change in behaviour. The teacher 's role is to help the learner develop learners' readiness to learn, seeking self-satisfaction and respect.
In this video the speaker talks about experiments carried to determine which incentives are better for companies' performances. Three main factors are said to determine better performance and personal satisfaction:
- Autonomy:
Engagement results from workers being self-directed.
- Mastery
To get better at work
- Purpose
Being purpose maximized not profit maximized
As you can see none of these factors refer to any kind of reward or external incentives. Extrinsic motivation appears to play but a minor role in the companies performances.
Although the experiments were initially carried to determine performance in the economic field, they are applicable to education. Watch and you will see for yourself.

The Hampton Wick Big Picnic
Posted: Tuesday 12th June 2018
We had the most beautiful English Summer sunshine, it simply couldn't have been better.
Within minutes we had our first new volunteer sign up, we didn't even have to approach her, she came bounding over full of enthusiasm, just lovely. A steady stream of children tried the Hoopla; whilst they threw hoops we could chat to the adults, tell them what we do & give out leaflets.
The Mayor paid a visit to our gazebo and thanked us for our work, as did the Lord-Lieutanant of Greater London which was a great boost to our purpose. Cllr Robin Brown kindly posed and mentioned us in a tweet. So an unexpectedly high profile day.
Thankyou to the organisers: The Hampton Wick Association, the Friends of King's Field and St John's Church. What a monumental amount of work must have been involved to make the whole event happen, giving the community a memorable day out.

Michigan has not had a great start to October. Jim Harbaugh's team is 1-2 in the month and has seen its Big Ten and national title hopes go up in smoke after losses to Michigan State and Penn State.
No more top-10 ranking or national title odds for the Wolverines, who started the season 5-0. After the 42-13 setback Saturday night at Penn State, Harbaugh told his team the only way to move forward is by sticking together.
Quarterback John O'Korn was asked about Harbaugh's message after the loss at Penn State. He told reporters Harbaugh said "the fake love's gone. There's no bandwagon. Only us."
Nick Baumgardner of the Detroit Free Press posted the quote on Twitter.
John O'Korn asked what Harbaugh told them after the game: 'The fake love's gone. There's no bandwagon. Only us.'

Michigan should be able to regroup next week with a home game against Rutgers. The Wolverines then play Minnesota and Maryland before ending their regular season with tough tests at Wisconsin and against Ohio State.

Iran's Revolutionary Guard shoots down US 'spy' drone: Report
Iran's elite Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) have shot down a US "spy" drone in the southern province of Hormozgan, the Guard's news website, Sepah News, claimed on Thursday.
"It was shot down when it entered Iran's airspace near the Kouhmobarak district in the south," the report added.
Iran's state-run IRNA news agency citing the IRGC, identified the drone as an RQ-4 Global Hawk.

Captain Bill Urban, a US Central Command spokesman, declined to comment when asked if an American drone was shot down.
However, he told The Associated Press: "There was no drone over Iranian territory."
The reported shootdown comes amid heightened tensions between Iran and the US since last year, when President Donald Trump pulled out of a 2015 nuclear deal between Tehran and major powers and reimposed sanctions on the country.

The pursuit of a lush green lawn can quickly become frustrating when the desired results are not being achieved. Whether you're a do-it-yourselfer or you're using a lawn maintenance service in Allentown, Bethlehem, or Easton, PA, if you feel like there is effort going into your lawn but you're not getting the pay off you desire, chances are you're getting fed up.
The truth is that achieving a thick, green lawn requires a combination of basic lawn maintenance practices with some lesser-known tips and tricks. It's a bit more complex than most people realize. Even a lot of lawn care professionals get in the habit of doing things a certain way and never change it up.read more
