Every year, Morgan Geiser, 12, was allowed to have two friends over for a birthday sleepover party. This year, Geiser allegedly suggested to her friend Anissa Weier, also 12, that they use the event as a cover to kill a third little girl from their class. The motive? Allegedly, to please anti-hero Slenderman from website Creepypasta.com, a fictional character whom they believe truly exists.
The party, scheduled for May 30, 2014, went fine, and the girls were tired enough after a fun night Skateland in Waukesha, Wisconsin, that they decided to put off the murder planned for 2 a.m. while the victim slept, and to instead kill her at the park the next day. They allegedly planned after the murder to walk the approximately 390 miles to the home of the malevolent Slenderman, whose mansion they believed was located in Nicolet National Forest in northern Wisconsin.
Weier reportedly explained to police that "Slender," as the suspects call him, is the "leader" of the Creepypasta universe, where one shows dedication by murder. The girls' idea, allegedly, was to kill their classmate to prove their worthiness to Slenderman, while also proving to the world that he exists.
Once at the intended murder site, the girls were unable to go though with it, so they went to play hide-and-seek in a wooded area. The victim was allegedly told to lie face down on the ground while the other two hid. She complained about not being able to breath while Geiser and Weier allegedly screwed up their courage to act. Finally, as Weier reportedly told police, Weier said "now," and Geiser and Weier attacked, tackling the victim and stabbing her 19 times as the victims screamed, "I hate you! I trusted you!" By the time they were done with her she reportedly couldn't breathe, see or walk.
All Geiser told police she remembered was a lot of screaming. That she thought Weier stabbed first and then handed her the knife, and that she continued to stab, but does not remember. Of the Slenderman, all she said was that he watches her, reads minds and teleports, and that she had never met him.
Weier, in her report to police, said that they then told the victim to lie still so she would bleed more slowly and that they would go to get help, but, she allegedly confessed, their real intention was to leave her there to die.
Both girls allegedly admit that what they did was "probably wrong."
Her attackers gone, the victim managed to crawl out of the woods and on to a sidewalk where she was soon found by a passing cyclist. She was rushed to the hospital and, though she had to keep fighting for her life, was reported in stable condition Monday.
Geiser and Weier were found walking near I-94 in Waukesha, carrying a backpack with a a 5-inch blade in it. They are each being held on $500,000 bail and are being charged as adults — at least for now — with attempted first-degree intentional homicide. They were formally charged Monday, and each faces 65 years in prison.
Geiser's family has expressed sadness and horror at their child's alleged act, and her parents have apologized to the victim and her family through their attorney. Weier's family has not yet made any comment to the press.
Investigators are checking into the girls' family backgrounds to see if there was any indication the children were disturbed.
Waukesha case offically gets weird as 'Slender Man' tweets to stabbers

Hope springs eternal? Peace in our time? Here we go again!
I must say I trust Iran and their president thousands of times more than I trust Aznar, Tony Blair or anyone occupying the White House.
It is a significant and potentially distinguishing move, that Iran sent a small research rocket into space. Ventures in that direction should be encouraged and rewarded at least in face. Their outcomes bring Iran valuable divergence between peaceful and other uses of launch vehicles.
Otherwise outstanding Economist writers disgrace themselves by making no distinction between the good and bad of Iran, as they do with other countries or religions that offends British 'taste'.
Such writing paints utterly black everything the currently targeted opponent is or does, hoping the good will magically becomes totality for England and hoping too, they won't have to admit being in an actual dialogue with their target opponent.
Iran, after all, hosted an important United Nations conference, the resulting instrument being called "The Proclamation of Teheran". The research rocket would be an easy bridge from current events to the goals outlined in that instrument.
Take a break from the wartime abysses, gulfs and Seas between England and everybody else Go do a rewrite in a place with some land mass underneath you.
One can only wish that soon Western politicians will stop this shadow boxing and simply accept that Iran will get nuclear weapons one way or another. India, Pakistan, and North Korea are the examples that show nothing will happen to Iran.
Besides which, the last approx. 200 years Iran has suffered all sorts of invasions by western powers, not to mention direct attacks by the US, such as the overthrow of an elected government to be replaced by a US supported dictator, as well as killing about 290 civilians when the US shot down an Iranian passenger jet. etc. etc.
It is no wonder that Iran wants nuclear weapons, and this probably even if it has a democratic government given that it lives in a dangerous neighborhood (heard that one before :-D )
The only way this desire for nuclear weapons will change is when even the large owners, the US and Russia agree to hold, say, about 100 each instead of the thousands they have, as well as Israel giving up its weapons and coming under the US protection like Japan has.
There is no way that this is a new nuclear bargain under President Ahmadinejad. Iran has been stonewalling the international atomic energy agency (along with the United Nations) for close to five years now, and now all of a sudden Iran is willing to export most of its uranium out of the country for 4-5 months? Really? Are we honestly going to believe this? At this point in time, there is no turning back for Tehran on the nuclear issue; they have done all the leg work themselves and now they are a screwdriver short of turning the fuse. After so much success as churning up its nuclear program- despite U.S. pressure- Iran would be foolish to cave into U.S. pressure now.
Heck, Ahmadinejad would be suicidal if this was a legitimate deal. Remember what happened when he agreed "in principle" to the original U.N. nuclear deal in October? He came back to Iran and got lambasted by Moussavi and his Green supporters for giving their nuclear program to westerners. The criticism was so great that Ahmadinejad was forced to back off the deal.
I don't know how many times I have said this, but it is worth repeating; the nuclear program has transformed from a simple research project to a significant part of Iranian nationalism. And whenever nationalism is involved, getting what you want is exceedingly difficult.
Next it will be Chavez who wants nuclear weapons. Iran with nukes
apparently is OK to Russia and China.
I hope they share their new toys with the Chechnyans and Uighurs. Very short
sighted. A very dangerous world ahead.
I don't understand why is this article so anti-Iran in the first place. Why is everyone going so paranoid over this issue.
I think the International Atomic Agency should move forward and take this offer seriously. This is a good sign that Iranians are ready and willing to talk to P5+1 who have been so insulting in their approach.
US is just being paranoid over this issue, like they need something to keep them in Middle East. Iranians will be commiting suicide by bombing any of the European Countries (for which US is preparing to put up their faulty Missile Defense Shield).
Iranians have the intellectual capital, and the P5+1 should be recognising that and use it as a tool to include Iran in world issues.
If US has to use its influence, it should use it on getting the illegal settlements removed and get Gaza freed up. Rather than wasting its tax payers money on Missile Defense Systems.
I really pity the American people...they need jobs not Missile Defense.
The Economist:
"Iran's missile and uranium salvoes - Another puzzle - An offer to talk or just another ruse?"
It's just another ruse, meant to deceive those who wish to be deceived...and there are still plenty of them.
Firstly, I think The Iranian President has a sense of humour. In a parlance, it looks like he is taking the 'Worm.' Secondly, he is playing outreach in an environment where he knows he will have Chinese Cover. Thirdly, The Iranians have the Intellectual Capital to do this and have surely crossed the Tipping Point.

Hi, I planted this in the fall, along with other plants in same bed (azalea's, grasses, etc but not rhododendruns). All are doing fine except this specimen. Starting early in spring a number of branches were totally dead at ends, brown, now flower development. I figured winter damage from bad storms and cut it back. But it is still progressing further. Notice the leaves on left are droopy. I don't see spotting on leaves...just the entire leaf turns brown and wilts. No sign of bug damage. It is in part shade and gets plenty of water. Any thoughts? |
Follow-Up Postings:
- Posted by akamainegrower none (My Page) on Sat, Jun 15, 13 at 11:50
The most likely cause of your problem is a dried out root ball. Pot grown rhododendrons are very prone to this - there are many examples on this forum. The light peat based medium used by the grower is very hard to rewet once it dries out. The problem is made worse if at planting the roots are not cut, raked with a cultivator or otherwise unmatted. The best thing to do is to dig up the plant, tease out the roots - don't be afraid to really do this thoroughly - and soak in a bucket until the root mass is wet. Then replant. If you notice signs of wilting over the summer, water at the base of the plant with a slow trickle for 30 to 60 minutes. Don't soak the whole bed. That just makes it harder for the roots to move out of the original medium and into the soil around it. You may have to use the trickle technique again next year, too. |

(Updates with Swiss regulator comment in fifth paragraph.)
June 27 (Bloomberg) -- The decision to make too-big-to-fail banks primarily use retained earnings and ordinary shares to meet heightened capital requirements was a victory for U.S. regulators over their European counterparts.
The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision largely rejected requests from European countries to use some forms of contingent instruments to satisfy the new capital buffers. Regulators have yet to prove that so-called CoCo bonds, which convert into ordinary shares if a trigger event occurs, can absorb a bank's losses, a person familiar with the negotiations said.
"Europeans were pushing for a mix of common equity and contingent capital and they lost at a global level," said Karen Shaw Petrou, managing partner of Washington-based Federal Financial Analytics Inc., a bank consulting firm.
The decision was part of the Basel Committee's overhaul this weekend of rules on how much capital the world's largest and most systemically important banks must hold to ensure they don't collapse during a financial crisis. The group of regulators said June 25 that lenders deemed too big to fail would need to set aside from 1 percentage point to 2.5 percentage points in additional capital.
Banks will have to meet the Basel surcharges using core Tier 1 capital, also known as common equity, the group said in its statement. The extra measures for as many as 30 of the largest banks will be imposed in addition to Basel rules announced last year. The 2010 accord, known as Basel III, require lenders to hold core capital equivalent to at least 7 percent of their risk-weighted assets.
Capital Surcharges
The outcome of the latest talks indicates that a "consensus" among regulators is "getting hardened around 10 percent common equity core tier 1," Tobias Lux, a spokesman for Swiss financial regulator Finma, said in a telephone interview.
The committee said it would continue to study the issue and that banks could use CoCos to meet national capital rules that are even stricter than the Basel rules.
The agreement will help make "key financial institutions even more solid than already foreseen" under Basel III, Chantal Hughes, a spokeswoman for Michel Barnier, the EU's financial- services commissioner, said in an e-mailed statement.

Regulators have been split over how far banks should be pushed to bolster their core reserves, which consist mainly of a bank's ordinary shares and retained earnings, with lenders also warning that forcing them to plough more profits back into their capital could impede credit lines and ultimately harm the economic recovery.
Central bankers ultimately rejected allowing the buffer to include contingent capital for now because there wasn't enough experience with the securities to see how they would serve as a buffer in a time of crisis, said one person involved in the discussions, who declined to be identified because the meetings were private. The group acceded to a request by several nations to keep the securities under study, and decided to validate a Swiss plan to use them on top of the systemic buffer.
"The credit markets were eagerly awaiting some sort of Basel sponsorship of the CoCo instrument as contributing to any SIFI buffer, and thus taking us one step closer to the proper launch of such a market, outside of the Swiss banks," Morgan Stanley analysts said in a note yesterday.
'Entirely Disappointing'
"For those hoping for a 200 billion euro plus CoCo market (like us) over time, the release was entirely disappointing," the analysts said.
Bertrand Benoit, a spokesman for the German finance ministry, declined to immediately comment on the discussions. Ben Fischer, a spokesman for Germany's financial regulator, Bafin, declined to comment.
"It is still too early to tell" whether CoCos will be accepted by the markets, Ewald Nowotny, Austria's central bank governor who isn't a member of the Basel committee, said in a telephone interview. "Up to now we have seen quite positive signs, it is still a bit mixed," he said.
Not all European countries supported the use of CoCos. The U.K. Independent Commission on Banking in April said in an interim report that important questions remain to be answered" about the use of the instruments to build up capital.
Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. Chairman Sheila Bair has supported international efforts to impose tougher capital rules on systemically important financial institutions to avoid a repeat of the market turmoil that followed the 2008 bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc., and that those rules should be based on banks having to build their common equity.
'Feed a Crisis'
"Conversion to equity in a stressed situation could trigger a run on the institution, downstream losses to the holders of the debt, and potentially feed a crisis," Bair said in a hearing last week.
With national regulators allowed to go their own way in any additional requirements they impose, American banks may face more restrictive choices than their European counterparts in how they bolster their capital.
"This will create disparities in the international market if you have some countries using it and some not," said Scott Talbott, senior vice president of government affairs at the Washington-based Financial Services Roundtable, a group representing large banks such as Bank of America Corp. "There is a need for international harmonization for all aspects of capital whether types, quality or amount of capital levels."
Contingent Capital
Global regulators "will continue to review contingent capital," the Basel committee said in its June 25 statement. The group supports the use of such instruments to meet higher national loss absorbency requirements than the global minimum, the group said "as high-trigger contingent capital could help absorb losses on a going concern basis."
Swiss regulators have already called for the country's two largest lenders, Credit Suisse Group AG and UBS AG, to issue CoCos in addition to meeting a three percentage-point surcharge.
"We took note that Basel also mentions CoCos as a way for national authorities to impose additional surcharges," Lux said. On the use of core Tier 1 capital, "what was suggested is really close to the proposition now being discussed before parliament in Switzerland," Lux said.
CoCos are "quite an important element" for the two Swiss Banks, Nowotny said.
The success or failure of CoCos as an instrument "is nothing regulators can decide in the end," Nowotny said. Regulators can make it possible for banks to issue them but whether they are accepted "is up to the markets to decide," he said.

I honestly feel that because Steve has passed, you know, it's like when Biggie passed, and Jay-Z was allowed to become Jay-Z. I've been connected to the most culturally important albums of the past four years, the most influential artists of the past 10 years . . . I got the answers. I understand culture. I am the nucleus."
