@placeholder's attorneys have asked that she receive a mental health evaluation. | By Louise Boyle The 12-year-old girl who was stabbed 19 times in a violent attack by two classmates and left for dead has thanked the thousands of people who sent heartfelt messages of support and thousands of dollars towards her recovery. A photo was released this week of the girl's hands holding a homemade card covered in purple hearts which simply read 'thank you'. She was surrounded by some of the hundreds of messages sent from supporters around the world. The other picture showed a collage of these notes arranged on her bedroom wall. The unidentified middle-schooler was lured into the woods in Waukesha, Wisconsin on May 31 by 'friends' Morgan Geyser and Anissa Weier, also 12, who planned to kill her in order to gain access to the world of the mythical 'Slender Man'.

It depends on what happens in the coming six months. And not just six months from now, but what happens between now and then: a period during which Iran and the world powers are supposed to abide by the deal they made in Geneva last weekend and work to hammer out a permanent agreement. If the Geneva deal in its current form becomes permanent because the two sides can't get to a final resolution and drag out its current terms (the six-month period is "renewable by mutual consent," says the so-called Joint Plan of Action), then what occurred this weekend will mark a calamitous turning point, triggering a chain of events that brings about the very developments that Obama -- and most of the world -- want to avoid.

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said the aid would help fighters in their effort to topple Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.

In the largest study of genetic risk factors for Alzheimer's in the African American population, researchers reporting in the Journal of the American Medical Association found that two genes associated with higher risk of the neurodegenerative disorder among whites also contributed to higher rates of the disease among African Americans. Changes in these genes, however, conferred a higher risk of disease among African Americans than among whites. In the study involving nearly 6,000 African American participants aged 60 or older, about 2,000 of whom had Alzheimer's and 4,000 who did not, variants in the genes ABCA7 and ApoE increased risk of developing Alzheimer's by 80% and more than two fold, respectively.

'Mr Judd had visited @placeholder to undertake a civic duty and his sinister secrets were only recently exposed and he was jailed for his crimes.' | A theme park has banned adults unaccompanied by children from entry over fears that they could be paedophiles. The bizarre rule at Puxton Park, in Somerset, came to light after a bird enthusiast was forbidden from watching a falconry display at the centre on his own. Matthew Richards, 54, had visited with his three grandchildren just days earlier and wanted to return for another look at the birds of prey area - but was turned away. The centre has appeared to contradict itself in justifying the rule - first claiming it has been in place for seven years - before then blaming it on last year's visit from jailed paedophile Phillip Judd - the former mayor of Weston-super-Mare.

But that's more or less what has happened. Jacques Rogge had to "clarify" (in other words, backtrack on) his newsworthy comment that there was a "question mark" over the suitability of McDonald's and Coca-Cola as Olympic sponsors. Apparently he had actually first flagged his concerns four years ago, but the lure of sponsors' cash far outweighed any considerations about growing obesity levels ... and apparently still does. However, now Rogge is far from alone in questioning high-calorie, high-sugar fast food brands sponsoring the Olympic and Paralympic Games. The Academy of Royal Medical Colleges made a high-profile intervention in April, specifically singling out sponsorship of the Games by junk food and fizzy drink firms as sending out the wrong health message. The London Assembly has also recently passed a motion calling for a ban on the sponsorship of the Games (and other sporting events) by such companies.

Sara Goldberg first became interested in @placeholder in her late 20s when she sought spiritual counselling – known as ‘auditing’ in Scientology parlance - following a painful break-up. | By Daily Mail Reporter Heartbreaking dilemma: Sara Goldberg, 63, says she was declared a 'suppressive person' by the Church of Scientology for not ending her relationship with her apostate son Sara Goldberg, a one-time high-ranking member of the Church of Scientology, claims she was given an impossible 'Sophie's choice' by her superiors that ended up tearing her close-knit family apart. According to Mrs Goldberg, 63, from Florida, church elders pressed her to sever ties with her son, Nick Lister, who was accused of being connected with Scientology apostates. When the woman refused to willingly 'disconnect' from her renegade son, as church teachings dictate, she was put on trial at the Scientology compound in Clearwater.

The amount was also the largest of the offers, and @placeholder was one potential buyer to deal with rather than numerous members of a group. | Donald Sterling has reportedly been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease which may be the reason why control of the LA Clippers has been handed over to his estranged wife Shelly. It was reported today that the contractual agreement that governs the team dictates that, since he and Shelly each own half of the team, their health has to be ruled sufficient to rationally lead the team and Donald has been deemed mentally unfit. The disgraced owner is also suing the NBA for $1bn over the way the aftermath of his race row as been handled. The terms of the deal mandates that in order for one of them to be ruled incompetent, two doctors have to agree on the individual's health and apparently that has happened to Sterling.

The government is turning @placeholder into a police state and this worries me." | Istanbul, Turkey (CNN) -- Sitting down with the protesters in Gezi Park, the message to the government from demonstrators, young and old, seems simple enough: Don't try to control us.

"They are trying to decide whether we drink alcohol," industrial design student Ozgsa Bertag-Apunaman, 20, says calmly: "Telling us how many children we should have and if a woman should have an abortion or not."

The fight over extending a payroll tax cut and long-term unemployment benefits picks back up Tuesday as Congress returns to work after its winter break. While aides in both parties say it's likely Congress will resolve that dispute, Republicans are still licking their wounds after a public backlash over how they handled those issues and fear that Senate Democrats will drag out the fight to score more political points in an election year. And Democrats are concerned that House Republicans will insist on adding more items to the measures to try to keep conservatives on board.

Furthermore, @placeholder customers didn't particularly have anywhere they belonged to feel special. | (WIRED) -- Cisco is shutting down a business unit that it bought for over half-a-billion dollars: the Flip camcorder division. That's a shame, considering how high the Flip was flying a few short years ago. It's also a waste, considering that Cisco bought Flip from Pure Digital only two years ago for a cool $590 million. But Cisco probably had to act fast, because its earnings fell 18% in the second quarter of 2011, and CEO John Chambers had to show he was doing something decisive to stanch the flow. It's not like the Flip was doing that well of late. When was the last time you saw someone actually using one of these low-quality, "good-enough" Flips? Probably about two years ago.
