Competency evaluation results for Anissa Weier, one of Slender Man stabbing suspects, will be revealed in court
The findings of a competency exam for Anissa E. Weier, one of the 12-year-old suspects charged with nearly stabbing a Waukesha classmate to death, will be revealed on Wednesday in court.
Judge Michael Bohren ordered last month that Weier undergo a court-ordered competency evaluation that would determine whether the case continues or is suspended.
According to online court records, Robert Rawski, a psychiatrist with the Wisconsin Forensic Unit, evaluated Weier and was preparing a competency report for the court.
If Weier's competency hearing is similar to Morgan Geyser's (the other suspect in the case), Rawski will be called to the stand and give a report on his interactions with Weier and answer questions from both the prosecutors and defense.
Rawski will give his recommendation on whether Weier, who has been confined to the secure Washington County Juvenile Detention Center in West Bend since being charged with attempted first-degree intentional homicide, is competent to stand trial.» Read Full Article
Waukesha North Marching Band captures eighth straight state championship
The weather change must have been a foreshadowing of what was ahead at the Wisconsin School Music Association State Marching Band Championships.
"The sun came out a couple of minutes before we came on," said Waukesha North band director Greg Redner.
And with the sun now shining after a gloomy start on Saturday, Oct. 18, at the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater, the site of the event, the Northstars' marching band itself delivered a glowing performance once again, winning its eighth straight state championship and 13th overall.
The Northstars finished with a score 89.20, edging River Falls' 88.85, to capture the Class AAA title at the 30th annual event.
Teams are judged based on visual and music presentation and ranked in categories based on school enrollment.» Read Full Article
Comedian Frank Caliendo to perform at halftime of Bucks' home opener
The Milwaukee Bucks announced Monday afternoon that comedian Frank Caliendo, formerly of Waukesha, will perform at halftime of the team's home opener on Oct. 31.
Caliendo, known for his impressions of celebrities and a "turrible" one of TNT analyst Charles Barkley, will entertain fans who attend the Friday night game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He also has done impressions of Jay Leno, Al Pacino, John Madden, Bill Clinton and George W. Bush, among others.
Caliendo attended Waukesha South High School and later UW-Milwaukee before going on to comic fame.
The 40-year-old Chicago native gained fame on the comedy series MADtv and later had his own sketch comedy program, "Frank TV" on TBS.
Across Wisconsin, uneven property assessments fly in the face of fairness

Catholic Memorial's win over Waukesha West ensures crazy four-team tie for Classic 8 title
Moments after Catholic Memorial defeated Waukesha West on Oct. 17, 14-12, to claim a share of the Classic 8 Conference football championship, a member of the Crusaders' coaching staff told the players that it was the 298th victory of coach Bill Young's illustrious career.
"Two more. Two more," the Crusaders players started chanting.
Young cut them off quickly.
"No. Five more," the veteran coach said, the obvious implication that he believes his team is one that can contend for the WIAA Division 3 state championship.
After the crucible his team survived in becoming one of four teams that will share the conference crown, he may be right.» Read Full Article

Waukesha man sentenced for threatening New Jersey judge
Camden, N.J. — A Waukesha man who is identified with the Sovereign Citizen movement has been sentenced to prison for threatening and filing false charges against a judge and 27 other officials in New Jersey.
Camden County prosecutors announced Wednesday that 30-year-old Michael Rinderele, of Waukesha, received a five-year sentence earlier this month. He had pleaded guilty in August to making threats and engaging in retaliation.
Members of the Sovereign Citizen movement argue federal, state and local laws have no authority over them.
Rinderele admitted filing fraudulent liens against the judge and 27 other officials in Voorhees and Winslow after traffic offenses were filed in New Jersey against Rinderele's common-law wife.

Waukesha County chairman's salary could be cut in half
The next Waukesha County Board chairman could receive half of its current salary if a new ordinance is approved.
In a change proposed by its current chairman, Paul Decker, the county board will vote next month on changing the idea to lower his pay from $58,586 to $29,293.
"It was a very tough decision," Decker said.
Decker said it wasn't about lowering the salary for himself but about aligning Waukesha County with its peer counties that have the same executive form of government structure.
"Waukesha County regularly studies the compensation levels of staff and elected officials and looks at peer counties as a guide when determining pay and benefits," Decker said.» Read Full Article
Mukwonago football team lands huge victory over Catholic Memorial
Mukwonago senior Darrick Schiferl found the redemption he was looking for, and it helped his team do the same.
It was Schiferl who put the clamps on Mukwonago's 35-28 win over visiting Catholic Memorial on Friday night when he intercepted quarterback Alex Bray on 2nd and 10 from the 39 yard line with two minutes to play.
"I needed that," Schiferl said. "It was a rough night, but we came through. We kept going. It's everybody; the guys up front are just as much of a part of a play like that as I am."
Schiferl's heroic scoop just inches off the grass more than made up for the Memorial's last possession, where he was flagged for pass interference and set up a Crusaders score to cut their deficit to seven.
"We tell our corners to be aggressive," Mukwonago head coach Clay Iverson said. "I just told him to stick with it. I've seen plenty of games lost on 80-yard touchdown passes. I have yet to see one lost on pass interference. I'd rather he goes after it and gets a flag than gets scared and gives up a score."» Read Full Article

Yesterday, a man from my church with whom I've never been hiking invited me to go with him to Crawford Notch. Loving the mountains, I of course agreed unhesitatingly. After a late start (7:30, if you can believe that, near ten when we got to the trail), we set out on Webster Cliff trail, one I've never done. I wasn't expecting snow in October at such a low elevation (there was actually snow as low as the road), and so foolishly brought only leaky sneakers which all too quickly became totally soaked. After a while, the light, fluffy snow started to turn to wet ice covering steep rocky sections. A few spots were downright hairy - I certainly wasn't prepared for ice climbing. It was a lovely view, though, and the feisty wind at the top kept reminding us that we were in fact on a mountain, as if we could forget with all the lovely snow about.
We had planned to go out and back on Webster cliff trail, but the ice was so bad, we decided just to head straight down from Jackson and make up the difference on 302.
Anyway, photos.
First, the view from Webster: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...eeeeek/052.jpg
Next, my little traveling companion perched on the ice-covered sign: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...eeeeek/009.jpg
Here's a quick little snowman he made to celebrate the first snow of the season (t'was made in haste, and the photo taken in haste because my other traveling companion was looking at me funny ): http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...eeeeek/027.jpg
The Mountain, of course. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...eeeeek/014.jpg
A few neat photos I took while walking back to the car: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...eeeeek/031.jpg
And for my question. I was planning to try Washington this Saturday (better prepared, obviously ) from the west side. What d'ya suppose is the driest trail? All I remember from the Ammonoosuc ravine trail is walking up alongside a waterfall. Pretty to be sure, but probably quite icy now. I suppose Jewel would be better?

The report projects the U.S. agricultural system can largely adjust to climate change in the short term by expanding irrigated acreage, shifting regional crop preferences, rotating crops and changing management practices such as choice and timing of inputs and cultivation practices.
In the long term, however, the vulnerability of agriculture will depend on human responses according to the report. This will require "development of geographically specific, agriculturally relevant, climate projections for the near and medium term; effective adaptation planning and assessment strategies; and soil, crop and livestock management practices that enhance agricultural production system resilience to climatic variability and extremes." We'll also need research and development in new crop varieties that are resistant to drought, disease and heat stress.
The full report (193 pages) is available online from the USDA.
