It was October 12, 2012 when a very odd 911 call had come in to Campbell County dispatch. 21 year Shayna Hubers sounded frantic as she told the dispatcher she had just shot and killed her boyfriend, Ryan Poston, in self defense. But as she continued to tell her story, things just didn't seem to add up. Sponsors: Hello Fresh Go to HelloFresh.com/50creepers and and use code 50creepers for 50% off plus free shipping!

Linda Ronstadt sang "Love is a rose, but you better not pick it--only grows when it's on the vine." It's a song about how love only flourishes when tended to, when you don't pick and choose which parts of the whole to love. When you love the roots and thorns and leaves as much as the flower. For some, though, love is less like a rose and more like a burdock. Y'know? Those thorny little buggers that stick to your clothes? They stick to you and never let you go, even when you've picked them off the fabric and tried to throw them out. For them, love isn't something that you give up easily. For them, it can be deadly. Join us for the story of Ryan Poston, whose on-again/off-again romance with a beautiful grad student named Shayna Hubers turned into a nightmare of stalking, harassment, and murder. This case has striking similarities to the Jodi Arias story, and interestingly enough, the killer herself was obsessed with the Arias trial.

On October 12, 2012, Shanya Hubers called 9-1-1 to report that she killed her then-boyfriend Ryan Poston in his home in Fort Mitchell, Kentucky. Hubers shot Poston six times, but she continually maintained that the killing was in self-defense. Poston's murder received national news coverage, and Hubers frequently is compared to Jodi Arias.This audio was taken from one of our YouTube videos and edited for this podcast.

IT TOOK MORE than two months for Herb to dispose of the coarse goods Ben gave him, develop eleven new couples (and how he yearned for Lorna while he worked, how much his imagination was enlarged by thinking of her), sell his list of Five-Foot-Shelf customers, sell his old Studebaker Four, and buy a new-to-him Studebaker Series 19 “Light Six.” Lorna carved coarse goods for Luther while she waited for Herb's return, and together, though apart, they accumulated a nice little nest egg.AT HERB AND LORNA'S WEDDING, Lester Piper appeared to have regained all of his old spark. He so charmed Richard Huber that Richard spent hours trying to persuade Lester to leave what he supposed was a fairly good position in Boston and move to Chacallit, where the air was clear and the rushing waters of the Whatsit were mellifluous and pure, and to try breathing some life into his sales department. To Richard Huber's surprise (but much more to the surprise of Millie and Ben Piper), Lester accepted. There was some talk in Chacallit when Lester and Millie arrived and put up with the Hubers until they found a place of their own, and there was some resentment when Lester assumed his duties, but in a few months even the people who had resented him most when he arrived had to admit that Lester Piper was the best salesman they'd ever seen.HERB AND LORNA arrived in Babbington on a cold and rainy Sunday night. The town looked deserted. Main Street was nearly dark; the only light came from night lights in a few shops, from the streetlamps at the intersection of Bolotomy and Main, from the police station, and from a garage across the street from the police station. Of these, the first that Lorna and Herb saw, coming into town from the west, were those at the police station and the garage. “Well,” said Herb, “it's not quite what I'd imagined.” “How can you tell?” asked Lorna. “I can't see a thing.” “That's what I mean. I had imagined a clear night, a moon, moonlight on the ocean, something like that.” “Sounds like the night we burned the ballroom,” said Lorna. “There's something,” said Herb. “Looks like a police station up ahead.” “I'll take your word for it,” said Lorna. “And a service station. Speedy's Reliable Service.” Herb pulled into Speedy's and dashed through the rain into the station. There, at an oak desk, bent over a copy of the Babbington Reporter, was Officer Dan Whitley, youngest son of the renowned scoundrel and noted angler Andy Whitley, the mayor of Babbington at that time. After a moment or two spent standing, patiently, just inside the door, clearing his throat and shuffling his feet now and then, Herb decided that Dan was asleep. He retreated soundlessly to the door, opened it, backed out into the rain, and reentered, this time with a heavy tread and loud exclamations. “Whoo!” he exclaimed. “It's not a fit night out for man or beast!” He stamped his feet and shook the rainwater from his hat. Dan, startled, sat up straight, shook himself awake, and rubbed his eyes. “Say, I didn't startle you, did I?” asked Herb. “Me?” asked Dan. “Heck no. You just kind of surprised me. I was pretty intent on what I was reading here, that's all.” “What's that?” asked Herb. “Obits,” said Dan. “Uh-oh,” said Herb. “Nobody close to you, I hope.” “Hm? Oh, no. Not anybody special. Well, there is a cousin in here today, kind of a distant one, though. Couple of other people I knew enough to say hello to. I read 'em all, though. Don't matter to me who they are. It's kind of a study with me, a study of human nature. You find out a lot about people this way. 'Course, you have to know how to read between the lines sometimes, but it's funny how much you don't know about somebody till he's dead.” Herb and Dan spent a moment in silent contemplation of that idea, and then Dan looked at Herb as if realizing for the first time that Herb was someone he didn't know at all, not even to say hello to. “Say,” Dan said, “what're you doing out on a night like this? You in some kind of trouble?” “No,” said Herb, “no trouble. My wife and I — ” “Lost?” “No, I — ” “Passing through? Want some gas?” A toilet flushed somewhere behind Dan, and he jerked his thumb in the direction of the sound. “Speedy'll be right out,” he said. “I'd pump you some myself, but I'm on duty.” “That's okay. I don't need gas,” said Herb. “Just directions.” “Said you weren't lost,” Dan pointed out. He narrowed his eyes. “No. Yes. That's right, I'm not. Lost. I — we — we're going to settle here.” “Here? In Babbington?” “Yes, in Babbington.”In Topical Guide 297, Mark Dorset considers Studebakers; Disappointment: Expectations Unrealized; and Obituaries from this episode.Have you missed an episode or two or several?You can begin reading at the beginning or you can catch up by visiting the archive or consulting the index to the Topical Guide.You can listen to the episodes on the Personal History podcast.

WHEN HERB AND BEN checked in at the Chacallit House, Ben, full of eagerness and confidence, certain of success, sure of the value of what he had to offer, went off to see Luther at once. Herb, who was not as confident, not at all certain of success in his undertaking, hesitated. He hadn't told Lorna that he was coming. He'd tried to write, but he hadn't been able to find a way to say the things that he wanted to say. He unpacked. He took a bath. He shaved. He dressed, considered the effect in the mirror, didn't like what he saw, changed, and didn't like what he saw any better than he had before. Doubts breed rapidly, and they breed fastest in front of a mirror. Herb sighed and let his shoulders fall. He went off to see Lorna reluctantly. What he had to offer her seemed of little value. He stopped his old Studebaker in front of the house, and he sat for a moment, with both hands on the wheel, trying to think of something to say to Lorna — no, not something — the thing, that remarkable thing that would tell her everything he felt — the word, the phrase, the sentence, the declaration that she would never forget, that she would, years from now, tell their children, their grandchildren. “I'll never forget,” she would say, “the day that Herb came back to Chacallit. I opened the door, and there he was. He smiled and said — ” What? What? By the time he reached the Hubers' door, Herb had begun to think that he should have stayed in Boston. He caught sight of his reflection, and to himself he looked like a thin guy holding a battered hat, wearing a shabby suit and scuffed shoes, with an old heap parked behind him. Lorna was at home, since she was now unemployed. When the war ended, Lorna had been among the first of the Chacallit women Luther had let go from the main floor. Her parents were puzzled when she didn't return to ivory work, but at dinner one Sunday, Luther had provided an explanation, one that was false when he offered it but became true in time: he said that the market for expensive jewelry for men was declining, and that he couldn't very well keep Lorna at work when there were returning veterans without jobs. “Perhaps,” he said, giving Lorna an unwelcome pat on the arm, “things will change, and I'll find a way to bring Lorna back to work.” She was in the kitchen chopping cabbage when Herb turned the doorbell. She started for the door in her apron, but the thought that had come to her so often came to her again, the thought that this might be Herb, and she quickly untied the apron and threw it onto the kitchen table. “Herb Piper,” she said when she opened the door, not daring to add what her heart hoped: “You've come back to me!” “I didn't get killed,” said Herb. They were the first words that came to him, and by them he meant, “I came to see you because you're always on my mind, even when I'm with someone else. You're always there. The idea of you comes flickering through, like sunlight through the leaves on a tree.” Lorna burst out laughing. “I know,” she said. “You used to write to me, remember?” By it she meant, “When you stopped writing, I was afraid I'd never see you again, and then I knew how much I wanted to see you again.” “I don't know why I said that,” said Herb. “It was the first thing that came to me.” He meant, “I didn't have the courage to say any of the things that I wanted to say. To tell you the truth, I'm not even certain just what those things are. I just said whatever popped into my head. Please, please, don't think I'm a fool.” Lorna pushed the screen door open and stepped out into the spring air. “I'm glad to see you,” she said, meaning, “I think I love you, Herb.” “And I'm glad to see you,” said Herb, looking down at his hat in his hands, embarrassed, because he was sure she must be able to tell that he meant to say, “I think I love you, Lorna.” “How's your leg?” Lorna asked, instead of saying, “Gee, Herb, you look wonderful! I'm so happy to see you again that I could cry.” “It's all right, thanks,” said Herb. “You look well.” (Instead of, “You look beautiful.”) “Oh, I've been fine.” (“I missed you.”) “Good.” (“I missed you.”) “Yes.” “You — um — didn't get married or anything like that, did you?” “No. I would have told you so if I had.” “You would?” “Well, I — I would have because, well, because you're my employer, and you might need to know.” “Employer?” “The books,” said Lorna. “The books,” said Herb. “Of course, the books. How are the books going?” “Fine. Just fine. Everyone's pleased. No complaints.” “Good. Good.” For a moment, they just stood and smiled at each other. “So you didn't get married, then?” Herb reached for her hands. “No.” Lorna put her hands in his. Too quickly for fear to stop him, Herb leaned forward and kissed her cheek. It was hardly a kiss at all. His lips just brushed her cheek. As the years passed, Lorna would become less and less sure about her memory of what Herb had said to her when he returned, but she never forgot that wisp of a kiss. It was the unforgettable statement Herb had hoped to make.In Topical Guide 288, Mark Dorset considers Foreshadowing and Words and Gestures: Their Effect on Others, Fleeting or Lasting from this episode.Have you missed an episode or two or several?You can begin reading at the beginning or you can catch up by visiting the archive or consulting the index to the Topical Guide.You can listen to the episodes on the Personal History podcast.

“I GUESS you want me to tell you some more about the war,” said Andrew. He and Lorna were sitting on the sofa in the Hubers' parlor, as they had on many evenings since Andrew's return. Richard was standing, filling his pipe. Lena was sitting in her accustomed chair, knitting. Before she quite realized what she was doing, Lena let a sigh escape from her. When she discovered herself sighing, she tried to disguise the sigh as a yawn. When she realized that a yawn was every bit as bad as a sigh, she became confused about what to do next, and she burst out giggling. She glanced up from her work and saw that she had become the focus of attention. Lorna rose from the couch and walked to her mother's chair, where she stood behind her and squeezed her shoulders. “I'm sure we'd love to hear some more about the war,” Lena said, with a hearty eagerness that made Richard wonder whether she needed a long rest. “You needn't feel that you have to tell us everything, my boy,” said Richard. “I'm sure that there are many things you'd rather keep to yourself.” “Oh, no,” said Andrew. “Not at all. I've got a million stories to tell!” “Ah,” said Lorna, barely audibly, “only half a million to go.” Lena giggled again. Richard, who had heard Lorna well enough, gave her a stern glance. Andrew, who told himself that surely she could not have said what he thought he'd heard, gave her a bewildered look. “What was that, Lorna?” he asked. “I said, ‘We really have to go,' ” said Lorna. She gave her mother another squeeze and smiled at her father, who applied himself to the tamping of his pipe. When Lorna and Andrew had left, Lena let her knitting drop into her lap and said, looking straight ahead, “He really is a very nice boy.” “Yes,” said Richard. “He's a fine boy. A brave fellow.” He puffed at his pipe. Lena said, “I only wish — ” “Yes,” said Richard, “so do I.” Lena went back to her knitting, and Richard stood puffing on his pipe and looking at the newspaper. He reminded himself, again, that Andrew was a good prospect. With the end of the war and the return to normal production, a wonderful optimism had spread through Chacallit. Hindsight allows us to see that this optimism was, insofar as it was based on the expectation of growth in the gentlemen's furnishings industry, ill founded, but for the time being there seemed to be no reason to doubt that the industry on which Chacallit depended would prosper or that Andrew Proctor, who would one day ascend to the presidency of Proctor's Products for Men, was a good prospect. So it was difficult for Richard, who wanted to see Lorna securely settled, to admit that he would really rather not have her settled on Andrew Proctor. It was even more difficult for Lena to admit. She had seen the war take some of the best young men of Lorna's age and had watched Lorna pass what she considered her peak. She had watched Lorna grow less and less interested in the men who might have been interested in her. She felt that Lorna expected too much, and she was afraid that if Lorna drove Andrew away, there might be no one left. So, a little ashamed of what she was doing, she had begun to push Lorna toward thinking seriously about marrying Andrew, even though, whenever Lena watched them walk away from the house together, she admitted to herself that she was glad not to be the one who would have to listen to Andrew for the rest of the evening. Lorna tried to convince herself that Andrew's failings didn't matter, that she was imagining some and exaggerating others, that he really was good enough, but the truth struck her on the night when Andrew made love to her, on the back seat of his car, a Chevrolet. To be fair, her expectations may have been too high. Lorna was a nineteen-year-old virgin who in the last two years had spent approximately twenty-six hundred hours scrutinizing sexual performances of great diversity and sophistication and replicating them, in ivory, with painstaking exactitude. Though she didn't yet know what she liked, she knew much about the art. When she decided that tonight might just as well be the night, her imagination summoned all the couples she had carved, all their frozen moments of sex. Lorna came at Andrew as a flame licks at tinder, and if Andrew had noticed that Lorna's eyes burned brighter than his, that her breathing was quicker, her hands were hotter and bolder, and if, when she took his penis in her hands and inched herself toward him so that just the tip touched her, he had taken the time to notice her luscious concupiscence, then he would have cried out, “Oh, Lorna, take command, burn me up, consume me.” But Andrew didn't notice any of that and wouldn't have understood it if he had, and so when she approached him he thought she meant, “Take me, conquer me,” and he threw himself into the task with the cold-blooded single-mindedness that had made him a hero. He wrapped his arms around her, pressed her backward against the seat, and pushed himself, with one quick, grunting effort, as far into her as he could. Lorna hadn't anticipated that, and she didn't welcome it. Andrew began a steady humping progress toward his satisfaction, something like a forced march. A thought crossed Lorna's mind: if there's a medal for this, he's determined to get it. She started to snicker, but she covered it with what she hoped sounded like a startled exclamation prompted by an unexpected pleasure. Andrew stopped moving in her. Just stopped. He extended his arms and raised himself up so that they could look each other in the face and said, “I'll bet you've wondered what this would be like. I know I have.” He grinned and winked and went back to his huffing and puffing and f*****g. Lorna looked at the mouse-colored fabric lining the roof of the car and let her mind wander away from Andrew's fuss and hubbub, and on its own her mind wandered back to the rainy night when Herb stood on her front porch shaking his umbrella, and just as Andrew reached the end of the march, fired his salute, and collapsed in the shade, a shiver ran through her and she realized that she wanted more than anything else to be with Herb.Have you missed an episode or two or several?You can begin reading at the beginning or you can catch up by visiting the archive or consulting the index to the Topical Guide.You can listen to the episodes on the Personal History podcast.

THE NEXT MORNING, Herb left Ben at a table in the Chacallit House dining room, bent over eggs and sausage and kartoffelpuffers, the potato pancakes that would forever be Ben's second-fondest memory of Chacallit. His fondest would be the deal he had made with Luther Huber for dozens of pieces of coarse goods, a deal of that satisfying kind in which each party feels that he's getting the better of the other. Ben was pleased because he'd been able to get a price spectacularly lower than what he'd been paying to the Clapp people. Luther was pleased because Ben had paid a good bit more than Clapp paid. Both men looked forward to doing more business together in the future. While Ben ate, Herb drove up the steep and winding road to the Hubers'. Lorna heard a car stop in front of the house, but she was rushing to leave for work and didn't give it much thought. Herb bounded from the car, strode up the walk, mounted the steps, and stopped in front of the door, uncertain whether to turn the knurled knob to ring the bell or not. He had no idea what he'd say when the door opened. Ever since he had decided, in the moonlight, to return to the Hubers', he'd assumed that inspiration would come to him at the last moment, that as soon as he had to speak, he would know what to say. He'd slept well, eaten heartily, and driven the winding road with a song in his heart, all because he expected inspiration to come to him. Now he found himself at the door, still uninspired; he felt a damp chill in his chest and a dryness in his mouth. For Lorna's part, once she had decided, in the moonlight, that Herb would never return, the things that she would say to him if only he would return had come to her easily. In the morning, she stayed in bed longer than she should have, and then she had to rush to leave for the mill in time. She bounded down the stairs, dashed into the kitchen, drank the milk her mother had poured for her, and started for the door, licking her upper lip. Well, here it comes at last, the moment that would have occurred the night before, had everything gone as these things ought to go. Lorna opened the door and found Herb, staring into her face. Her beauty flared and transfixed Herb with his hand to his hat, his mouth hanging open. “Good morning, Herb Piper,” she said without a moment's hesitation. “Did you find anybody to deliver those books for you while you're in France?” She had said exactly the right thing, and she knew it. She beamed. Herb was astonished, ecstatic, euphoric, drunk on love, and he was, all at once, inspired. He beamed right back. “No,” he said. “I didn't. In fact, I came here this morning hoping that I might persuade you to take the work on.” “I'll do it,” said Lorna. “I don't care about the terms. I think it's important for you to know that your business in Chacallit is being looked after while you're in the — in the trenches.” Her voice threatened to fail her, but she swallowed hard and went on. “You can't afford to be distracted by business worries at a time like that,” she said, pressing right on with the argument she had prepared without reading in Herb's expression the fact that none of it was necessary. “You're right,” he said, speaking straight from the center of his thoughts, without any face-saving deviation. “I could get killed if I'm not careful, but they say if you look out for yourself, if you keep your eyes open, chances are good you'll get through all right.” They didn't speak for a moment, just looked at each other across the possibility of death. “I have to go to work,” Lorna said at last. She frowned. “Let me drive you,” said Herb. “I've got my own car.” “I see you do,” said Lorna. She walked beside him to the car, and he opened the door for her, and when, to steady herself, she reached for the edge of the door that he held open, her hand touched his. “Of course, I'll write to you often,” she said, “to keep you informed about the progress of — things.” “Oh, yes,” said Herb. “I hope so. Once a week, at least.” “At least,” she agreed. “There are so many things for us to discuss,” she said suddenly, noting with alarm how quickly they were approaching River Road. “I wonder if you could come by this evening to explain it all to me. You might come for dinner — if you like.” “I'd like to,” said Herb, “but my uncle Ben and I have to get back to Boston, and we were going to leave right after breakfast.” “Boston?” Lorna asked. “Is that where you're from?” “Sure,” said Herb, grinning. “Can't you tell?” “Tell?” she asked. “From the way I talk?” “I never knew anyone from Boston before,” said Lorna. “I thought you were from Albany.” They made a couple of selections from the catalog of little giggles, titters, chuckles, and chortles that timid would-be lovers use when they don't know how to say, or can't bring themselves to say, what they want to say. They approached the center of town, and Lorna was reminded of work. She thought with horror that a young man from Boston wasn't likely to approve of a girl who carved improper subjects on men's jewelry. She didn't want him to see where she worked. She had Herb stop when he reached River Road. They shook hands. Lorna said, “Good luck, Herb. I hope you don't — have a hard time.” Herb grinned. “I hope I don't get killed,” he said. Lorna got out. Herb put the car in gear. “So long, Lorna,” he said.In Topical Guide 273, Mark Dorset considers Food: Kartoffelpuffers and Language: Regional Accents from this episode.Have you missed an episode or two or several?You can begin reading at the beginning or you can catch up by visiting the archive or consulting the index to the Topical Guide.You can listen to the episodes on the Personal History podcast.

“I'll see you in a month, I suppose,” said Lorna. “I'm sure I can't wait for you to bring us our copy of One Hundred Lessons in Business.” “You won't see me,” said Herb. He was a little annoyed now, and he let it show. “I don't live around here. Besides, I've been called up for service.” “Oh,” said Lorna, surprised at how much this news startled her. “I'll have to find someone here in Chacallit who can deliver the books for me.” “Oh,” said Lorna. She couldn't think of anything to add. “I'd better be on my way,” said Herb, in a tentative way, without moving any closer to the steps. “My uncle Ben must be wondering what I've been up to all this time.” “Well, I'm sure he'll be pleased when he learns what a fine job you did selling books to the Hubers,” said Lorna. The pert tone was back in her voice, but she had the sickening feeling that Herb and his uncle might laugh at her parents, laugh at her too. “Good-bye, Cinderella,” said Herb. He turned and walked down the steps, down the walk, to his car. He got in, started it, and drove away. Lorna felt the chill, but she hugged herself and watched from the porch until the taillights disappeared. “A shame about that boy,” said Lena when Lorna returned to the living room. Lorna stood with her back to the fire, but the chill she felt came from within her. “Yes,” she said, abstractedly. “He's got gumption, that boy,” said Richard. “He's going to go places, I'd say. He's a pusher, you can see that. Doesn't sit around feeling sorry for himself. Runs right at a thing. Probably a real scrapper when he was little. He'll be a scrapper in business too. He's going to go places.” “He's going to France,” said Lorna. “France?” asked her mother. “He's been drafted,” said Lorna, still abstracted, still attending to her own thoughts. “Oh,” said Richard. “Well, good for him, and I wish him luck.” He raised his paper in front of his face. “He'll probably do just as well in the war as in business, don't you think, Richard?” asked Lena, partly just to say something, to contribute her share to the conversation, and partly because, still grateful to her husband for steering them through their interview with Herb Piper, she wanted to show him that she was paying careful attention to everything he said. “Hmmm,” said Richard. “Not necessarily. He may be a little too plucky, if you know what I mean, a little too eager. That kind is apt to get himself killed.” Lorna brought her hand to her face, tried to speak, but found that only a strangled cry came from her. She looked at her father in terror. She ran from the room and up the stairs to her bed, which she found so cold that she shivered under her quilt. The clouds had dispersed, and moonlight fell across Lorna's bed. She lay awake, thinking of Herb — mostly of that smile of his, that honest smile. She smiled herself when she recalled his surprise when he'd seen her in the right light, the way he'd paused in folding his umbrella, the way he'd held his hat, the way he'd lost his tongue. She was also thinking of herself, mostly of things she might have said, might have done. I could have stayed out on the porch with him, talking. Just talking about this and that. The moon even came out from behind the clouds. The perfect setting. Why didn't I? Why didn't I? “Where are you from, Herb? Albany, I'll bet. How did you ever find your way to Chacallit? Are you afraid to go to the war?” No, no. That wouldn't be the thing to ask. He might be killed. He's got gumption, and that can be dangerous in a war. I could have touched his hand, could have made him promise to write to me, to come back to me. That's a ridiculous idea. When he comes home from France, he won't be coming to Chacallit. He might not come home at all. He might be killed. Father liked him, even if he had no idea who he was. “He's got gumption.” He liked me, liked me even when I was teasing him, liked me even when I told him to call me Cinderella. Cinderella. Damn. I might as well have told him to go away and leave me alone. Well, he has. I wish something would bring him back. “Do you like selling books?” That would have been better than nothing. “You must have stories to tell about traveling, don't you, Herb? I'll bet you have stories you wouldn't want to tell me.” Teasing again. He probably does have stories he wouldn't want to tell. There may be girls lying awake from here to Albany or wherever he came from. All of us lying awake, with the moonlight falling across our beds, thinking of things we might have said to keep Herb from going on to the next girl. Are the others thinking that, that there are others, that we're all thinking the same things? Maybe not. Maybe there are no others. Maybe I'm the only one who's made him feel awkward; maybe I'm the only one he's wanted to talk to. But maybe not. Maybe I'm different. Maybe each of us thinks she's different, that she's the only one he's really noticed, that he'll be back. Maybe each of us is wishing that something would bring him back.In Topical Guide 271, Mark Dorset considers L'Esprit de L'Escalier from this episode.Have you missed an episode or two or several?You can begin reading at the beginning or you can catch up by visiting the archive or consulting the index to the Topical Guide.You can listen to the episodes on the Personal History podcast.

LUTHER ALSO PROVIDED the occasion for Lorna's introduction to the acrobatics of sex. It happened a few years later, one winter, on the day of Luther's first sleigh ride of the season. The first sleigh ride of the winter was an event that Luther began to anticipate in the fall. He needed the infusion of daring that he got from that first ride of the winter, and his need increased throughout the fall. He lived in two rooms, down in the valley, near the mills, but he kept his sleigh in his brother's barn, behind his brother's house, beside his brother's boxy farm wagon, where it stood idle until the winter. In the winter of the year in which Bertha turned sixteen, after the first good snowfall, when Uncle Luther arrived to take the sleigh out for the first run of the season, he found Bertha sitting in the sleigh, waiting for him, shivering. She begged him to take her with him on the first ride, though she knew that he always made the first run alone. “You know that I always make the first run alone, Bertha,” said Luther. “I know you do,” said Bertha. “But this year I want you to take me with you.” “I'm inclined to drive like a madman on the first run, Bertha. I don't want to put you in danger. You'll have to wait until tomorrow.” “I want to feel the danger,” said Bertha. “I want you to take me with you, Uncle Luther.” He insisted that she get out. She insisted that he take her with him. He tried to lift her from the seat. She threw her arms around his neck, and said, “Oh, please, Uncle Luther, I won't be afraid. I want to go with you so much. I've always wanted to go with you on the first mad run of the winter. Take me, please, just this once.” He lifted her in his arms, lifting her out of the sleigh, with the intention of setting her on her feet and telling her firmly that she could not go, but she kissed him, awkwardly, eagerly. Luther changed his mind. “Run to the house and see if your mother will let you go,” he said, slowly, looking into her eyes while he spoke. “Tell her that I'm willing to have you come with me.” He set Bertha on her feet. She turned and ran at once for the house. Lorna, who had been watching through the barn door, turned and ran around the corner of the barn before she was seen. When Luther and Bertha returned from the ride, Lorna was waiting in the hay loft. May Castle was able to give me a good idea of what Lorna saw: Oh, she thought it was quite a hilarious scene. Well, she was half frozen by the time they came back, and she was just terribly frightened too, because she could tell that something was up that shouldn't be up. Well, and she was just exhilarated too, of course, since she knew she was likely to see something worth seeing. So there she was, up above them, in this hay thing, terrified that she would be discovered, but she could hardly keep herself from laughing. It seemed to her that they were doing the most outlandish things. Of course, she hardly saw a thing in the flesh, so to speak. It was winter, of course, and her uncle and sister were bundled up because of the cold. This was — well — around 1910, I would think. People used to wear much more clothing then than they do now, at any time of year. Well, her uncle Luther had all but disappeared under her sister's skirts, and Lorna thought she would surely burst out laughing. Then they were turned this way, and then that way, but the blankets and clothing kept her from seeing exactly what was going on. Lorna was not — well — innocent. No, I didn't mean to say that. Snip that out. Snip! I meant to say that she was innocent, but she was not ignorant. This was country living! The Hubers had some chickens and goats and dogs and such. Lorna had seen plenty of rutting, and she was quite sure — in a little girl's way — that rutting was what her sister and uncle were up to, but she couldn't tell exactly how they were going about it. She put together an idea — a very complicated and rather kinky idea, from what she knew about the farm animals and what she knew about — well, about herself. Oh, she told this story once so very well, when she got a little tipsy. That was rare for Lorna, but whenever she and Herb and Garth and I got together, well, Garth would always do his best to get her a little looped. And now and then he succeeded. He always had a new drink for her to try, something exotic, with fruit juice and rum. She never knew how much rum she was getting with all of that juice and — oh, I don't know what else — an orange slice, and a cherry, and so on. Well, she would get quite giddy after a while. She always became giddy when she drank. Herb became serious. Garth became flirtatious. Well, he was always flirtatious — more than flirtatious. If he hadn't been so charming, he would have gotten himself slapped many a time. And punched many another. As it was, well — oops, I'm straying. Well, that's when she told the story about Bertha and Luther. Oh, but the best part of it was that she mimicked their expressions, and it was just the most lascivious performance. She never behaved like that at any other time. And don't think that Garth didn't try to get her to tell the story again and again.In Topical Guide 249, Mark Dorset considers Amusements and Pastimes: Sleigh Ride from this episode.Have you missed an episode or two or several?You can begin reading at the beginning or you can catch up by visiting the archive or consulting the index to the Topical Guide.You can listen to the episodes on the Personal History podcast.

The chain of events that led to Luther's losing his fingers began in 1902, when Luther bought a Studebaker Brothers Gentleman's Road Cart. In fact, he bought two. In the spring he bought a standard cart, and he enjoyed driving it so much that in the fall he bought another and had it fitted with runners as a sleigh, for the winter. The Gentleman's Road Cart was a lean, handsome, jaunty, bachelor-uncle's sort of vehicle. Both of Luther's were beautifully painted in red Chinese lacquer, with gold pinstriping. He kept them polished and gleaming. “I would never drive a dirty cart or sleigh,” said Luther, in the way that bachelor uncles make pronouncements about the principles that underlie the life they make for themselves. Bachelor uncles tend to accumulate such words to live by and, as time goes by, tend increasingly to live by them. I suppose that this happens to all of us, but there is something about bachelor uncles, perhaps the fear that if they fall there will be no one to catch them, that makes them behave like umpires over their own behavior, interpreters of an ever-lengthening rule book, like the Hubers' rule book for croquet. The rules in Luther's book became increasingly bizarre after he bought the cart and sleigh. His rules about cleanliness became stricter and stricter: his mustache was always clipped, the lacquer on his cart and sleigh always gleamed, his shoes were always shined, and so on. At the same time, however, his rules governing and defining acceptable behavior for a man of his age and station became laxer and laxer, especially those governing his conduct with young girls. Before he bought the Gentleman's Road Carts, Luther's work at Cole & Lord's Gent's Accessories had been marked by a simple Huber conscientiousness and lack of imagination that had earned him a series of small promotions and an office that overlooked the rushing Whatsit. He drove, at that time, a sensible and unremarkable carriage, and he drove it in a brisk but sensible fashion. He smiled at the young girls of Chacallit but kept his distance. The Gentleman's Road Carts did something to him. He drove the sleigh along outlying roads and through fields like a madman in the winter, and he was nearly as wild when he drove the cart through the streets. His daredevil driving earned him the spoken condemnation and unspoken admiration of most of the other men in Chacallit, and it earned him the attention of young girls. Increasingly often he took one of the mill girls riding with him, and increasingly often he brought the girls — flushed, giggling, exhilarated — home with him after their rides. He brought to his work the reckless daring that he had discovered in his driving. This new daring led to the accident in which he lost his fingers, but it also led him, for the first time, to give his talent its head. He produced some striking designs for cuff links and shirt studs, and eventually he created the profitable industry that lurked in the shadows and dark recesses of the gentlemen's jewelry business, the branch that came to be known as “the coarse-goods trade,” not for the quality of materials and workmanship that went into the goods, for they far surpassed that found in most other jewelry produced in Chacallit, but for their erotic content.Have you missed an episode or two or several?You can begin reading at the beginning or you can catch up by visiting the archive or consulting the index to the Topical Guide.You can listen to the episodes on the Personal History podcast.

Chapter 2In Which Lorna's Uncle Luther Becomes the Father of the Coarse-Goods TradeTHE CROQUET ground rules that have been kept by the Hubers fill a small book generations old, maintained and expanded by successive occupants of the narrow house and passed along with the house itself. It makes an interesting historical document. Of the following samples from this book, the entry made in 1910 is of particular interest, because it was added to the rules by Lorna, in her hand, when she was nine.No player may drive the ball of another player in a downhill direction. [1856 — just three years before Lieutenant Amédée Mannheim, of the French artillery, developed the form of slide rule that endured until the development of the electronic calculator]No player may drive the ball of another player on a course so close to the contour of Ackerman Hill that the net effect will be the same as if the ball had been driven on a downward course. [1888]No player may drive the ball of another player into the new drainage ditch along the upward border of the front lawn, since a ball so driven is certain to roll through the new culvert and continue on an accelerating downward path. [1901]Driving the ball of a player who is injured or who does not have the full use of his fingers is not fair play. [1910]Any player who causes any ball to roll downward and be lost, whether by direct or indirect means or by accident, must pay for it or replace it. [1930]When the ball of another player is driven, it must be driven uphill only, and if an uphill ball starts rolling downhill it MUST be caught before it rolls off the property. [1952]It would be more fun for everybody if no player drove the ball of another player in any direction whatsoever, because it's really the pleasure of the game that we ought to be interested in and not the whole competitive thing. [1969]All croquet balls and mallets used on this court shall be made exclusively of wood. The use of mallets made of carbon fibre compounds or of aluminum alloys is expressly forbidden. In fact, those damned aluminum baseball bats that make a sound like “pwong” are not to be used within earshot of this court either. [1983] Lorna had a specific person in mind when she protested against driving the ball of a player “who does not have the full use of his fingers.” It was her Uncle Luther. Uncle Luther was tall and quiet and dark. He had a pointed chin and deep-set eyes; those would have been his most prominent features if his right hand had not been so terrifying a curiosity. The forefinger was normal, but the other three fingers ended at the first knuckle. They had been sliced off by the machine that cut the clamps for suspenders from thin sheets of brass, while Luther was demonstrating the speed at which he wanted the machine run. “As neat an amputation as any surgeon could have done,” Luther enjoyed saying.In Topical Guide 245, Mark Dorset considers Games: Croquet and Gadgets: Slide Rulefrom this episode.Have you missed an episode or two or several?You can begin reading at the beginning or you can catch up by visiting the archive or consulting the index to the Topical Guide.You can listen to the episodes on the Personal History podcast.

Chapter 1In Which Lorna Is Born into the Huber Family, of Chacallit, New YorkMY GRANDMOTHER, Lorna Huber, was born in Chacallit, New York, fifty miles or so northwest of Albany, in the valley of the Whatsit River, a tributary of the Mohawk. The name of the town has a curious etymology. The first English settlers arrived around 1680, some fifty years after William Oughtred developed the first calculating instrument that could be called a slide rule. These settlers knew the Mohawk name for the place, which meant, loosely, “place where many fur-bearing animals can be taken but the land is really too steeply sloped to allow one to make a proper camp.” However, since the settlers couldn't pronounce the Mohawk name correctly and were, in the English manner, disinclined to learn to do so, when they were asked where they hailed from they made a bit of comic business out of struggling to pronounce the name, delivering three or four mispronunciations, and then shrugging and saying, “Oh, What-y'-may-call-it.” The term What-you-may-call-it was, by the middle of the seventeenth century, already well established in English as a humorous substitute for anything the name of which a speaker had forgotten, couldn't pronounce, had never known, or didn't consider worth learning. The Oxford English Dictionary, in the entry for what-d'ye-call-'em, lists what-you-may-call-it as a variant, and cited there we find Chapman writing, as early as 1598, “Why hees a what you calt.” In 1600 we find Shakespeare himself writing, in As You Like It, “Good euen good Mr what ye cal't.” Apparently human nature and the techniques of comedy were little different in those days from what they are now, because the citizen of “What-y'-may-call-it,” having raised a laugh by lampooning the name of the town, added what is known to stand-up comics as the “topper.” After a suitable pause, the citizen would add, “It's on the bank of the What's-it River,” and, presumably, have his listener in stitches. In time, the town became widely known as What-y'-may-call-it, and then, through clipping and elision, What-y'-ma-call-it, Whatchamacallit, Whatchacallit, and, finally, Chacallit. Similarly, the river came to be called the Whatsit. The first Hubers in America, Kurt Huber and his sixteen-year-old bride Inge, arrived in the Whatsit Valley from Germany in 1730, at just about the time when the first members of the Studebaker family were settling in Pennsylvania. In Germany, the Hubers had been farmers. History does not record what reasons Kurt Huber had for choosing Chacallit, but, to judge from the poor soil and steep slopes, he certainly can't have intended to farm there. At the time, fur-trapping was really the only industry, but Kurt seems to have worked as a road builder. A history of Chacallit published in 1866 says of Kurt, “It is to him that the town is indebted for some of its handsomest streets.” That history also says, “He was a bold, fearless man who refused to remove to the fort, where the other settlers fled on account of the Indians.” Inge was known for her caustic wit and dark beauty. An admiring but wary diarist of the time marveled, in a sketch of Inge, that “so sharp a tongue should lurk behind such plump, alluring lips.” Kurt Huber died just two months before the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Following his death, many objects of value that had been presumed stolen by Indians during raids were discovered among his road-building tools and supplies, and as a result Inge and her eleven children lived under a cloud for the rest of their days. Throughout the nineteenth century, the manufacture of gentlemen's furnishings, which had begun in Chacallit on a very small scale, as little more than a cottage industry, a way for families to supplement their incomes when fur trapping was off, grew steadily in economic importance, and thanks to it, the town grew and prospered. For generations, the Hubers of Chacallit strove to efface the memory of their infamous ancestor Kurt by establishing themselves as a family of unremarkable drudges wholly devoted to the stolid, uncomplaining performance of dull work. The gentlemen's furnishings industry offered numerous opportunities for work of that type, and as the industry expanded the Hubers filled more and more of the positions in the undistinguished middle of its work force. Now and then Inge's genes produced an impish, quick-witted beauty or Kurt's produced a rogue, but most of these were, for the greater good of the family, suppressed or sent away, and the Hubers trudged along at the soft center of Chacallit's success.In Topical Guide 240, Mark Dorset considers Places, Fictional: Chacallit, New York; Name, What's in a; Names, Pronunciation of; Names and Naming: Place-Names; and Technology, Outmoded: Slide Rule from this episode.Have you missed an episode or two or several?You can begin reading at the beginning or you can catch up by visiting the archive or consulting the index to the Topical Guide.You can listen to the episodes on the Personal History podcast.

We’re joined by Ted, Christian, and Blake to talk about the family history on the farm that led them to have DSP-IN-31, which is a super super low number when it comes to a distilled spirits producer. We take a few twists, but there is one thing we came away with and that’s how this family never settles with a single recipe, single barrel entry proof, single cooperage, or even a single distiller. These three take turns at the helm steering their bourbon in a new direction. After recording, we went to the warehouse and tasted 12 or 15 different barrels and not one of the two was alike. Make sure you try a single barrel selection from Starlight Distillery and you will know what I’m talking about.

Hayden Hubers, better known as Hayd, sits down and shares his journey from high school student to recording artist, and the email that changed his life. He shares how he's kept his cool despite having his music downloaded over a million times, and why his relationship with God is more important than anything else that he could ever want or need. Plus...we talk about his friendship with Quinn XCII, the soccer game that was meant to shake him, and why watching Season 2-5 of The Office will change your life. What He Recommends: Harry Potter Francis Chan Jesus Worldwide Ecclesia Quinn XCII Jeremy Zucker What He Said: "20 years ago you couldn't make music this way...if you were a normal kid from West Michigan you couldn't become an artist...but now you can be anyone from anywhere and make music." "I was wrestling with the question of whether or not I could make secular music." "I heard God ask me, 'Would you give this all up if I asked you to?'" "There are a lot of questions, but I also have a lot of peace about where I'm going." "There is so much pressure to go to a good college, but there is so much more freedom than we think...and every single option isn't necessarily a yes or a no."
After hearing from Leo Houlding and Patch Hammond about their legendary Yosemite season in 1998 there was one obvious gap in our story - Ben Bransby. Before attempting Freerider with Patch, Ben had made an ascent of the Salathe Wall with Mark Reeves. It was his first taste of big wall climbing and gave him the confidence that he could get himself out of trouble if needed. The climbing world might have been astonished at his and Patch's efforts on Freerider - remember at this time that there were only 2 free routes on El Capitan - but for Ben it felt like unfinished business. After getting gripped on the Monster Offwidth and succeeding on the Enduro Corner and the Boulder Problem he and Patch ended up jumarring the Huber brothers' fixed ropes to finish the route. A few years later he returned to the valley with the goal of doing Freerider "properly". In doing so the seed was planted for a one day ascent with Swiss climber Jvan Tresch. A few teams had done this previously, including the Hubers, who overtook Patch and Ben in 1998. Their ascent was almost curtailed by the wrong kind of commitment. They were arrested and jailed in Yosemite after being caught shoplifting kneepads to try to protect themselves in the Monster Offwidth. After being bailed out on a Friday evening they were due in court on Monday and could end up being thrown out of the valley. In the early hours of the Saturday morning the pair set off on what would prove to be the biggest, hardest day of cragging they'd ever had. Being committed on El Capitan like it was just another day at the crag was a dream come true, and one that Ben holds up as his proudest climbing achievement. As with Patch and Leo, this is very much a coming of age story. It's clear that with each ascent Ben was looking to the next adventure already, banking the experience for future use. But this story is an echo of previous tales in Factor Two in many more ways. If you've listened to our episode Nine and a Half Hours with Duncan Critchley you'll see what I mean - A one day ascent of El Capitan with a Swiss climber? The reverberations from Duncan's Nose In A Day back in 1984 are a little spooky, right down to the words they use. That's what I love about these stories, climbing is such a shared experience. Getting a little glimpse into that shared mindset is something relatable at any level.

Patch Hammond has remained a bit of an enigma in the climbing world. If you flick through the magazines from the late 1990s you’ll see a scruffy youth with an impressive climbing CV – onsighting E6 and E7 in North Wales and climbing with the likes of Tim Emmett, Neil Gresham and Leo Houlding. In the last episode we heard from Leo about their ascent of El Niño on El Capitan – Leo’s first big wall. Patch and Leo had travelled to Yosemite together, but while Leo was socialising at Camp Four and becoming part of the Yosemite scene it was Patch who was heading off trying to get better at the style of climbing there. Patch met Ben Bransby for the first time in the valley. Encouraged by the Huber brothers the two of them set out to repeat Free Rider – the same route featured in Free Solo with Alex Honnold. They set off from the base of the wall to attempt it ground up, with no experience and borrowed gear and made an impressive effort. They didn’t quite manage to free climb the route, but put in what was at the time the most impressive British attempt on El Capitan. Under the wing of the Hubers, Patch talked Leo into attempting El Niño, telling him that he’d already done a 5.13a pitch and was convinced Leo would stand a chance of onsighting 5.13b. Plus the route would suit them – no crack climbing on this one, slabs and adventure climbing exactly like they’d been training on in the slate quarries and at Gogarth. Patch’s memories of those years climbing revolve around the community he became a part of, and the mentors who guided him. He still seems in awe of the fact that he could be a part of this scene where everyone was a hero to him. He didn’t seem to realise that maybe he was one of them too.

On October 12, 2012, Ryan Poston, an American attorney planned to meet Ms. Ohio for drinks at a bar but he never made that date.
The Ohio woman who fatally shot her boyfriend because he was dumping her to go out on a date with a beauty queen gets married and divorced behind bars. Shayna Hubers claims Ryan Poston was abusive and she was trying to get away from him, although prosecutors argue that shooting him in the face, five more times in his body suggests she wanted him dead. Nancy Grace digs into the case and Hubers life behind bars with former federal prosecutor Francey Hakes, private investigator Jim Elliott, forensics expert Joseph Scott Morgan, New York psychologist Dr. Chloe Carmichael, Radar Online Reporter Alexis Tereszcuk and Crime Stories reporter John Lemley.
Back in 1998 Leo Houlding and Patch Hammond achieved something almost unthinkable – a near onsight ascent of El Capitan. They were just 18, had no big wall experience and headed to Yosemite without any great ambitions for the big faces. They had intended to try to headpoint some bold, hard new lines, but quickly discovered that the sort of lines they were after didn’t exist in Yosemite. When they arrived there were just two free routes on the mai wall of the Captain. The Salathé Wall, freed by Paul Piana and Todd Skinner in 1988, and The Nose, freed by Lynn Hill in 1993. But the mid 90s saw a new team emerge – the Huber brothers. In the few years before Leo and Patch’s trip the Hubers had started to establish themselves as a free climbing force in the valley. In 1998 Alex and Thomas Huber made the first free ascent of El Niño. The Hubers employed seriously redpointing tactics to achieve their route, preparing each pitch meticulously before making their ascent. Taking Patch and Leo under their wing they encouraged them to try the route. It was still well chalked, the hardest climbing was in the first few pitches and their hand drawn topo was still fresh. After borrowing the gear they would need and making up their big wall tactics as best they could over 5 days, Leo and Patch stood on the summit. Leo had managed to onsight all but one pitch, with Patch freeing many as well. It was an astonishing achievement at the time, but even now El Capitan awaits a true onsight ascent.

Several studies indicate the use of 360-degree feedback helps improve performance because it provides not just one perspective of a supervisor, but rather multiple perspectives needed to identify a leader's strengths and areas to improve. No wonder there is universal agreement that 360-degree feedback is far more credible and valid than a single-rater system. At BCWI, we have developed a competency-based 360 Review for Christian leaders. Why? Because our engagement research proves that the Christian character of leaders is a key element of employee engagement and productivity in faith-based organizations. Our guest today knows how true this can be for leaders and their organizations alike. As a leader of one of the best-known Christian colleges in the United States, he has leveraged the benefits of the 360 for his leadership team. Here to talk with us about 360 degree feedback is Todd Hubers, the Vice President of People, Strategy & Technology, and a member of the president's cabinet at Calvin College.
