WASHINGTON Air Max 90 Sale , July 19 (Xinhua) -- Doris Payne, an 86-year-old notorious international jewel thief, was arrested on Monday for attempting to steal items worth 86.22 U.S. dollars from a Walmart store in the U.S. city of Chamblee, local police said.

The arrest took place at around 5 p.m. local time (2200 GMT) on Monday.

Payne was seen by a Walmart employee snap up items in the pharmacy, electronics and grocery departments Air Max Sale , and put some in her purse, a Walmart shopping bag and a cart, according to a police report.

However, Payne only paid for the items in the cart but not stuff she had kept in her purse and the bag at the checkout.

Payne was stopped and arrested by an off-duty police officer notified by a shore employee, after she tried to leave the scene with unpaid goods.

The police said Payne was booked into a city jail with an electronic ankle monitor placed by a probation office. All of the items she had tried to shoplifted have been returned to the store.

Payne's attorney said this time is different from her previous cases because she did not steal high-end jewelry.

In March Nike Air Max 2018 Shoes Sale , Payne pleaded guilty of stealing a 2,000-U.S.-dollar diamond necklace from a department store.

Dubbed "world-renowned jewelry theft," Payne has been arrested for about 20 times in several different countries.

She reportedly stole the first diamond in her 20s, and probably got away more often than she was convicted of.

In a 2013 documentary film, Payne bragged of stealing jewelry worth at least 2 million dollars.

"There's never been a day that I went to steal that I did not get what I went to do Nike Air Max 2017 Shoes Sale ," she said in the film "The Life and Crimes of Doris Payne."

UNITED NATIONS, April 18 (Xinhua) -- As the international community narrows its focus on the war-torn countries making up the continent of Africa Nike Air Max 90 Shoes Sale , Carlos Lopes, the executive secretary of the UN Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA), tried to work through Xinhua to draw global attention to the African continent's economic potential.

In a recent interview with Xinhua, Lopes described the UN commission for Africa as a "think tank," saying that its " contribution is mostly about policy recommendations and doing studies and research that are helpful for personalizing policies."

In the latest Economic Report on Africa released here last week Nike Air Max Shoes Sale , the African Union (AU) and UNECA presented their 11-country assessment in an in-depth case study. The study presented in the report, articulated the critical ingredients needed for the continent to spur structural transformation and industrialization.

Made up of 54 member states Air Max 2018 Shoes Sale , and playing a dual role as a regional arm of the UN and as a key component of the African institutional landscape, UNECA is well positioned to make unique contributions to address the Africa's development challenges.

Lopes joined the UN system 25 years ago and has used his academic background and knowledge of African development to take on his new role.

Lopes was selected in 2012 by the United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon to become the eighth executive secretary of UNECA.

The research has also demonstrated that "some countries are just starting their journey. That is the case of Rwanda. It has just started," Lopes said.

Rwanda is "a very interesting country in terms of the political determination" with a strong "coherence of policies."

The "coherence of policies go beyond just having a wish in industrialization but also developing a way of dealing with the economy on a macro dimension of policy," he said.
