BEIRUT (AP) -- Gunmen killed the brother of Syria's parliament speaker as he drove to work in Damascus on Tuesday, the state-run news agency reported, as the international envoy for Syria warned the country could become another Somalia.
Mohammed Osama Laham, brother of Parliament Speaker Jihad Laham, was killed in the Damascus neighborhood of Midan, the SANA news agency said.
It was the latest in a wave of assassinations targeting Syrian officials, army officers and other prominent supporters of President Bashar Assad's regime. Four of the president's top security aides were killed in a rebel bombing of state security headquarters in Damascus on July 18.
The killing came a day after some of the most intense fighting in Damascus in months as rebels wage a civil war to unseat Assad.
U.N.-Arab League envoy Lakhdar Brahimi said what is happening in Syria is a "big catastrophe." In remarks published Tuesday in the pan-Arab daily Al Hayat, he said the international efforts now are focused on getting a "binding resolution by the (U.N.) Security Council" to start a political process that will lead to change.
"I don't want to go too far in pessimism, but the situation in Syria is very dangerous. The Syrian people are suffering a lot," Brahimi said. "I believe that if the crisis is not solved in a right way, there will be the danger of Somalization. It will mean the fall of the state, rise of war lords and militias."
The east African nation of Somalia has been mired in war for two decades after warlords overthrew a longtime dictator in 1991 and then turned on each other. The government, backed by African Union troops, is currently battling Islamist extremist rebels linked to al-Qaida.
In another blow to the regime, Turkey's state-run news agency reported Tuesday that seven Syrian generals defected to Turkey. The Anadolu Agency said they arrived in the Turkish border province of Hatay seeking refuge. Their identities were not disclosed.
The agency said they were taken to a refugee camp in Hatay that shelters defected soldiers under tight security. They join dozens of other generals who have abandoned the regime. More than 110,000 Syrians have sought refuge in Turkey since the uprising began in March last year.
In Jordan, which also borders Syria, visiting Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov met with Riad Hijab, the former Syrian prime minister who defected to Jordan in August. It was a rare, high-level contact between the Moscow government and a Syrian opposition figure. Russia is one of the strongest international supporters of Assad's regime.
Lavrov said his talks with Hijab in Amman were meant to get firsthand information from the Syrian opposition on how they view a solution to the civil war.
"The idea of the meeting was to get an agreement or a roadmap on how to deal with opposition forces and save the Syrian people," Lavrov told reporters.
He voiced continued support for Assad's regime, warning that the alternative would dip Syria into further chaos.
In the Gaza Strip, a spokesman for the Palestinian group Hamas said the Syrian government has sealed its offices in Damascus, finalizing the break between the Islamic militant group and its former patron.
Ayman Taha said the move had been expected after Hamas openly switched sides to support the armed rebellion against Assad's regime. Speaking from Cairo, Taha said Monday's move by Syrian authorities was "a result of our siding with the Syrian people in their just struggle."
Hamas moved its headquarters to Syria in the late 1990s. But relations have soured since the regime violently suppressed an uprising that began as mostly peaceful protests. Many top Hamas leaders were based in Damascus until earlier this year when they moved to Qatar, Egypt and the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip.
Activists and state media reported clashes, shelling and air raids in different parts of Syria.
The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said air raids on Houla, a group of villages in central province of Homs, killed seven people. The group also reported air raids on the Damascus suburbs of Douma and Maadamiyeh saying there are casualties without giving numbers.
SANA said six regime supporters were killed when 11 mortars rounds fell near a pro-government demonstration Monday night in the northern city of Aleppo.
Activists say more than 36,000 people have been killed in 19 months of fighting in Syria.
The Observatory said Syrian troops shelled two villages on the edge of the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights adding that government forces have been trying to take over the area for days.
On Monday, the Israeli military said a bullet from Syria struck one of its vehicles traveling on the Israeli side of the cease-fire line in the Golan Heights. No one was wounded in the incident. The Israel-Syria border has been quiet since a 1974 armistice agreement. Such incidents have been rare.
Israel is concerned that violence from Syria's civil war could spill into the country. Earlier this week, three Syrian tanks entered a demilitarized zone between the countries. Several Syrian shells, apparently misfired, have exploded inside Israel.
Rami Abdul-Rahman, who heads the Observatory, said an oil pipeline that carries crude from Al-Amr oil field in the eastern province of Deir el-Zour to a refinery in the central city of Homs blew up during fighting and shelling in the Homs suburb of Sultaniyah. Abdul-Rahman said it was not clear if the pipeline was targeted by a bomb or was hit by a random shell adding that the explosion causes a huge fire.
Oil pipelines have been subjected to sabotage attacks over the past months.

Butler serves up five RBIs in rout of Angels
Slumping slugger goes 5-for-5 to help take series opener
ANAHEIM -- Not long before Monday night's game, Royals manager Ned Yost was discussing Billy Butler's recent slump. He made it clear he remained a Butler believer.
"I come to the park every day expecting Billy to get four hits," Yost said.
Yost was clairvoyant, almost. He was one hit shy.
Butler, emerging from a nine-game period in which he'd batted just .114, belted five hits and had five RBIs on Monday night to lead the Royals over the Los Angeles Angels, 11-4, with an announced crowd of 32,203 at Angel Stadium. Butler had two doubles and three singles.
He became only the second Royals player to have at least five hits and five RBIs in a game. The other was Kevin Seitzer who, on Aug. 2, 1987, went 6-for-6 with seven RBIs.
His 5-for-5 outburst gave him more hits that he'd had in his previous nine frustrating games (4-for-35).
"I've got 100 at-bats or so. I've been hot and cold, I've hit some balls hard at some people. Strikeouts are a little bit up from where I normally am," Butler mused. "I don't want to guess because I'd probably be wrong but, in the last four years, I'd guess it hadn't happened. Maybe even longer than that."
Historical note: The Royals' 11 runs were the most in franchise history in game in which they had no walks and no home runs. And it was the most runs scored by an American League team without a walk or homer since 1941 -- that's 72 years ago.
On a 19-hit evening, naturally Butler wasn't the only big contributor. Salvador Perez, Alcides Escobar and Lorenzo Cain each had three hits. Jarrod Dyson and Alex Gordon had two hits each. Cain and Perez each had two RBIs.
The biggest point was that the runaway victory came after a miserable week in which the Royals had lost six of seven games and were swept by the Yankees.
"Wipe the slate clean. I think that's the way this team is," Butler said. "As an offensive unit, when you have starting pitching the way we do, it gives you a little bit of confidence that it's going to come. And a game like this builds on that. I know I got five hits, but it was a total offensive output out there."
And the starting pitcher and winner on an 86-degree southern California evening was right-hander Luis Mendoza, who went six innings. It was the first win of the season for the No. 5 starter who's been skipped in the rotation from time to time.
"Every start I'm going to feel better and better and today I just felt great," Mendoza said. "My sinker was working good, down in the zone, and my teammates backed me up with some runs, too. For a starting pitcher, that's great, because you take the mound with more confidence."
Mendoza gave up three runs on six hits with six strikeouts. He walked none -- in fact, there wasn't a single walk in the game by either team.
Angels manager Mike Scioscia had kind words for Mendoza.
"He's got good action, good sink and for the first part of the game he was making some good pitches with it," Scioscia said. "Later on, we hit some balls hard, but he got the ball close to the zone, had a lot of movement on his fastball and we didn't square many up."
Luke Hochevar pitched the last three innings and, because of that, was awarded his first Major League save -- much to his surprise.
"I had no idea it was a save. I thought saves had to be three runs or less," Hochevar said.
Despite a big lead, he qualified for a save by finishing the game with a three-inning stint.
Butler's big night started against the Angels' right-handed starter Joe Blanton. Butler solved him for an RBI double in the first inning, a two-run single in the third and a single in the fifth that started a three-run burst.
"He's a good hitter," Blanton said. "I threw him a little bit of everything. First time he hit the double, I was trying to go in and I missed my spot. Second time I got ahead of him, had runners on second and third with two outs and he worked it to a full count. I tried to be aggressive with him on a changeup and he stayed on it, hit it up the middle."
Butler slammed a two-run double to right field -- his second ball off the wall -- in the sixth inning off left-handed reliever Michael Roth. His fifth hit came in the eighth inning against right-hander Robert Coello, a single to left.
This was the second time in his career that Butler had five hits in a game and the third time he had five or more RBIs.
"Billy's one of the best hitters I've ever seen. He can hit," Yost said. "When you've been in the game as long as I have, you see a lot of good hitters go into slumps. Billy's slumps generally are a 0-for-9 or 0-for-10. But you also know that any day he's capable of breaking out and really carrying the team for a period of time."
And Yost seemed to know just when that breakout would come.
"Every once in a while it's good to be clairvoyant," Yost said.

Next Stop in D.C.: Birch & Barley and Churchkey
Birch & Barley and its upstairs beer-centric bar, Churchkey, opened near Logan Circle just last fall but it's not uncommon to see a crowd waiting outside on 14th Street for a table. As soon as they sit down they'll be welcomed with pastry chef Tiffany MacIsaac's stellar bread board (and will hopefully end the meal with at least one of her oatmeal cookies).
MacIsaac's husband, Kyle Bailey, runs the savory side of the kitchen at Birch & Barley and Churchkey. The duo came to Washington from Allen & Delancey in New York. They also worked together at Cru and separately at Union Square Cafe and Blue Hill at Stone Barns. Washington D.C. is lucky to have them, and they tell me they're loving their new spot.
The third member of the Birch & Barley team is beer guru Greg Engert, who I had the pleasure of chatting with several times when I lived in D.C. and he was beer-directing at other restaurants like Rustico in Alexandria, Virginia. His passion for beer is infectious, and he knows more about it than anyone I've ever met. ChurchKey has a serious beer selection: 50 on draft, the largest selection in D.C.
The dinner at Birch & Barley starts with a gratis bread board (it's $5.50 upstairs at Churchkey). MacIsaac changes up the breads often "but never the pretzels," she promises—and that's a good thing. The fat little guys are dark and caramelized on the outside, soft and yeasty within, and perfectly sprinkled with coarse salt. In keeping with the restaurant's beer bent, the dough is made with beer, and so's the wonderful whole-grain mustard alongside.
Currently joining the pretzels on the bread board are addictive Kalamata olive rolls (usually a mainstay) and slices of cinnamon loaf, not too sweet and studded with golden raisins (recently rotated in). Since all breads are made in-house, I'm eager to try the paninis and flatbreads on Churchkey's fun bar menu.
MacIsaac, who's from Hawaii, says she's partial to tropical flavors come dessert time. Her Meyer lemon meringue pie ($9.50), with crust made from house-made graham crackers and a picture-perfect swirl of torched meringue on top, is silky and tart and somehow still tastes appropriately wintry. I could have polished off a pint of the accompanying exotic spice sorbet, a fruity concoction that hits you with some heat at the finish.
Next, a couple of sweets to sample from Birch & Barley's cookie plate ($8.50). The homey baked goods also come in bigger versions at Churchkey ($3 apiece). "Hostess" cupcakes even have the signature white icing design, but the rich-yet-light chocolate cake and its cream center put the original lunchbox favorite to shame. Oatmeal cream pie involves vanilla cream cheese sandwiched between the most delicious little oatmeal cookies ever. So good, the miniature just wasn't enough—you'll want a few.
We have yet to try the rest of the menu at Birch & Barley but liked what we've sampled so far. Have you been?

Confronting the criticism of health and environmental groups, three major nail polish manufacturers have begun the process of removing a trio of substances that have been deemed harmful. The chemicals formaldehyde, toluene and dibutyl phthalate (DBP), have been linked to cancer and birth defects. All were banned earlier this year in cosmetics by EU regulators but have not been targeted for removal in this country by the FDA.
Abnormally developed fish, possessing both male and female characteristics, have been discovered in the Potomac River, raising alarms that the river is tainted by pollution that drives hormone systems haywire. These pollutants are poorly understood and leave many with questions about what the problems in fish mean for the millions of people who take their tap water from the Potomac.
Recent California lab tests commissioned by the Center for Environmental Health showed that lead-tainted lunchboxes are being sold in national chain stores including Rite Aid, Staples and Big Lots, with elevated levels of lead. One lunchbox contained lead levels 24 times the legal limit for lead in paint, the group said. The testing found lead in the lining of lunch boxes, where it comes into direct contact with food.

NAPLES, Fla., May 12 (UPI) -- Police have again arrested a Florida man who made headlines last month for allegedly stealing a $1 soda refill from McDonald's.
Naples police arrested Mark Francis Abaire, 52, outside a Pizza Hut Monday and charged him with misdemeanor trespassing, the Naples Daily News reported Tuesday.
The Collier County Sheriff's Office said Abaire, who is known to be homeless, was spotted outside a Pizza Hut about 3:30 a.m. Recognizing him from a previous incident at the same Pizza Hut, officers stopped Abaire to speak with him, the police report said.
Abaire was arrested at the Pizza Hut in February for trespassing and open-container violations and was banned from the restaurant, the newspaper said.
Abaire said he was at the Pizza Hut again because he dropped his lighter.

PSG survive stern Valencia examination
Wednesday 6 March 2013
Article summary
Paris Saint-Germain FC 1-1 Valencia CF (agg: 3-2)
Ezequiel Lavezzi equalised for Carlo Ancelotti's team as the Ligue 1 leaders qualified for the last eight for the first time in 18 years.
Article top media content
Article body
Paris Saint-Germain FC reached the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals for the first time since 1994/95 after edging past Valencia CF on an anxious night in the French capital.
With a 2-1 first-leg advantage, the Ligue 1 pacesetters turned in a more cautious performance in front of their own fans, an approach that looked like backfiring when Jonas rifled the visitors into the lead shortly after the interval.
The subsequent introduction of Kevin Gameiro injected some much-needed impetus, however, the France forward playing a decisive role in Ezequiel Lavezzi's 66th-minute equaliser. The Argentinian international's fifth goal in his last four European outings calmed Parisian nerves and ensured PSG booked their place in the draw on 15 March.
Rather than picking Gameiro to replace the suspended Zlatan Ibrahimović from the start, Carlo Ancelotti bolstered his midfield by including Clément Chantôme alongside Blaise Matuidi and Thiago Motta. It was a decision designed partly to stifle Ernesto Valverde's side, who needed at least two goals, and it worked well during a muted first period.
Although two-time finalists Valencia camped in the opposition half for long periods, PSG were rarely troubled as returning skipper Thiago Silva marshalled the defence with assurance. On the few occasions the Spanish outfit conjured openings, their finishing let them down. Roberto Soldado had an initial chance on 15 minutes, latching onto a fine return pass from Jonas only to direct a tame shot at Salvatore Sirigu.
The Spain striker returned the favour after the half-hour, cutting back a clever ball that Jonas miscued wide. While the home team were struggling to find their attacking game, they continued to look organised, the otherwise untroubled Sirigu making his first awkward save from Jonas's long-range effort on the stroke of half-time.
The deployment of Éver Banega gave Valverde's men more options during the second period, and the coach's boldness was rewarded ten minutes in. Chantôme played Matuidi into trouble and when he was dispossessed by Tino Costa, Jonas pounced on the loose ball and hit a powerful shot past Sirigu with the aid of a slight deflection off Alex.
Ancelotti reacted, sending on Gameiro for Motta, and the competition debutant sparked an instant improvement. After charging through the heart of the Valencia defence, Gameiro stepped aside to allow Lavezzi to beat goalkeeper Vicente Guaita from close range, albeit at the second attempt. The goal prompted a huge outpouring of relief in the stadium, and Ancelotti's charges resisted Valencia's late pressure with a degree of comfort.

Amelia and an unnamed person, who is probably called William, are picnicking. They've decided that they'll leave the conventional plane of existence by drawing near to each other. The minimum safe separation is half a meter or so. Part one is here.
I was silent.
Sorry, what was that?
I didn't say anything.
You're thinking runner-up thoughts,
but it's time to say goodbye
to your peanut butter and cucumber sandwich,
to the woman with the umbrella and the tiny dog.
I didn't know that we were in a race.
What if we just dream about another world,
or make it up?
Come close, she said, it's time to go.
Are the rainbow lorries chirping oddly,
a pentatonic scale?
I don't think so, nothing's happened.
What about the wine? I thought it was cab sav.
It was always pinot noir.
Let's try once more, closer still.
A chance of sunset weather, a shower in the park,
monotremes and probabilistic raindrops
that searched for refuge before they turned to puddles.
Under an umbrella, a tiny dog was yapping,
pretending to be solid.
On the lake, the fire lilies sent their parachute seeds aloft,
swept upward in convected heat
from the ardor of their own combustion,
and above the trees, selected moons were rising,
emitting waves of matter.
At antinodal crossings, the buds of nascent universes blossomed,
but outlined dark against the Olber stars,
the N-whales were waiting.
Their mighty maws extinguished every fiery possibility,
a reminder that I had to put the rubbish out,
that everything's forever finite,
forever as it had been.
I dreamed last night at Byron Bay, sifting bones on Shelley Beach.
I met a monster made of mirrors
who quantified my life, its meaning in the mist.
But I don't recall a single word.
I should have taken notes, a precis in the sand
beyond the high-tide mark.
Célia stifled a yawn. A fascinating story.
Although I'm not called William, and I never was,
I've noticed that we're speaking English.
Quite surprising, for preternatural beings.
Some similarity with our earlier life's essential,
or else the link is purely the proximity of words,
of which we aren't aware.
Yet the commonality might be mere coincidence,
in a multiverse of peanut butter and cucumber,
an infinity of meta-sandwiches.
The last few drops of wine
trickled from the bottle,
heading for Célia's lips.
Let's travel to another universe,
I'd like a different name.
- I have never tried a peanut butter and cucumber sandwich and have no opinion on the taste, or whether they exist.
- Olbers' paradox— N-whales are one possible, albeit unlikely, resolution.
- A little Hofstadter feedback.

Abvent announced Artlantis 5, the latest version of the fastest, stand-alone 3D rendering application developed especially for architects and designers. Artlantis 5 combines the most advanced and efficient tools for fast and easy photo-realistic rendering of 3D projects. New features include an entirely redesigned interface; a new Artlantis Media catalog and InApp store; and a free iVisit 3D option for panoramas and VR objects.
Artlantis Studio Version 5: Download http://rapidgator.net/file/b6455847ada874f97d78ef058d95c91d/Artlantis_Studio_184.108.40.206_MacOSX.part1.rar.html
Times change, hardware evolves, and the Artlantis interface has changed, too. To take advantage of the benefits a wider screen has to offer, the Artlantis 5 interface has been completely redesigned. Artlantis 5 optimizes the project's display, and offers an even larger preview size. Artlantis 5 makes it easier and more comfortable than ever to work on your projects: standardized on MacOS and Windows, Artlantis 5's interface is based on a single clear window, adjustable and easy-to-use. With its inspectors grouped at the top of the screen, the working window is more readable - displaying on the fly or permanently, depending on your preference, the lists on the left and catalog at the bottom of the screen. As a result, the number of clicks needed to access the desired feature has been considerably reduced !
To meet your own needs and work habits, Artlantis 5 offers a new option to filter the list to optimize the content.
Artlantis 5 offers new features to your perspectives: each point of view now has its own infinite ground with altitude and material, as well as background and foreground images. Handling, re-sizing and adjusting backgrounds and foregrounds is easier than ever in this new version. Artlantis 5 also introduces a new function particularly useful for high vertical projects: the Architect camera. This option displays the project in two vanishing points only to obtain real verticals.
Finally, Artlantis 5 offers better visibility of your project in the 2D view thanks to a sectional cut at the height of the camera and the display of textures.
Preview Controller
Handling shaders or simple textures in the preview or in the 2D window is easy. A preview controller allows you to move, resize, and rotate shaders and textures. A simple keyboard shortcut is all it takes to snap a shader or texture to the geometry automatically.
Just like shaders and textures, objects are handled with the same ease in the preview or in the 2D view. Rotate, move, resize or duplicate … everything is optimized! The objects can also be snapped onto edges.
Editing lights in the 2D view or in the preview? Thanks to the new 'vertical guides' in Artlantis 5, lighting can be edited quickly and easily in both windows. It allows you to position the direction and fall-off of a single light or of a selection of lights right in the 3D space.
Last but not least, Artlantis 5 simulates the volumetric effect of a light by adding a cone of light at each spot in your scene.
Starting with Artlantis 5, the manual heliodon can be set easier than ever by adjusting the angles for zenith and azimuth right in the Inspector.
Like the lights, the volumetric effect of the rays of light, or 'God rays', can be added in post-process in the heliodon settings. To give you greater freedom in image reprocessing, these effects are recorded in specific layers when exporting in PSD.
iVisit 3D
In addition to panoramas, Artlantis 5 and iVisit 3D allow you to create VR Objects! The iVisit 3D Player has been upgraded to open up new horizons in creativity. The display quality of iVisit 3D panoramas and VR Objects is better than ever -- whether you're viewing on a website or on a mobile device. For unlimited sharing, a new Android application is now available on Google Play, in addition to that from the AppStore.
To improve your experience using multi-node panoramas, iVisit 3D now offers two navigation methods: 1) keep the point of view of the direction you're moving in, or 2) choose the default view of each node. The navigation thumbnails precisely represent each point of view. Setting your iVisit 3D panoramas, you can now navigate between the nodes directly in the preview.
The Artlantis Studio 5 Timeline has been optimized to ensure precise control of all events and movements associated with your animations. Each animated parameter is now presented as a track and as a hierarchical list…With magnetic guides, the key frame will snap automatically and graphically, ensuring a fluid connection and simplified synchronization of sequences. Finally, to enhance your animation, new, high-definition 3D characters are available for sale in the Media Store.

St. Joseph considers merger with non-Catholic hospital system
Financially troubled St. Joseph Medical Center may soon become part of a hospital system that does not follow its strict Catholic beliefs on abortion and reproductive rights.
The Towson hospital's owner, Catholic Health Initiatives, put it up for sale after a surgical scandal threatened its business and besmirched its reputation.
Two of its three remaining suitors are not Catholic institutions, which typically follow a religious doctrine that includes morning prayer and the prohibition of many women's services, such as abortion, sterilization, tubal ligations and in-vitro fertilization.
St. Joseph's said that all the hospitals it is negotiating with have agreed to honor its "Catholic identity." However, citing confidentiality agreements as talks continue, hospital officials won't clarify what that means.
The conflict between religious and secular ownership in merging hospital groups has raised questions and even killed deals.
St. Joseph itself was at the center of such discord in the 1990s when it shelved merger talks with Greater Baltimore Medical Center because of an outcry from women's groups that feared the deal would curtail abortions and other reproductive services. More recently, Kentucky Gov. Steve Beshear turned down a chance to merge a public hospital in Louisville with Catholic Health Initiatives after public opposition that the deal would have led to fewer women's services such as contraception.
More of these partnerships are taking place despite the complexities as the hospital industry continues to consolidate. Smaller systems facing competitive pressures and the uncertainty of health care reform are looking to become part of larger, financially sound institutions.
"There is no doubt that religion complicates hospital mergers," said Jon O'Brien, president of Catholics for Choice, which disagrees with a variety of the religious doctrines of Catholicism.
Cardinal Edwin F. O'Brien argued in a commentary piece that ran in The Baltimore Sun in January that St. Joseph's should be bought by another Catholic institution.
"The foundation that led to St. Joseph's modest beginnings and decades of growth is the same one that must see it through this difficult time in its storied and illustrious history," O'Brien wrote. "It is a foundation rooted in the Franciscan tradition and its Catholic identity."
O'Brien, as apostolic administrator of the Archdiocese of Baltimore, must approve any hospital merger, but a spokesman would not elaborate on whether he would shoot down a merger with a non-Catholic hospital.
Such intervention is rare but the Vatican has stepped in to stop a hospital merger, said Lois Uttley, director of the MergerWatch Project, a group that works to save reproductive health services in hospital mergers.
In some mergers, secular hospitals have agreed to ban abortions and other services to abide by Catholic doctrine. Other hospitals have used more creative means, such as segregating whole floors where these services could be allowed. In simpler examples, the Catholic and secular hospitals operate as separate entities with separate rules.
A Catholic hospital may have more say if it has the upper hand in negotiations, said those who follow religious hospital mergers. In its case, the troubled St. Joseph may be more willing to negotiate to get the best deal for the facility.
"If the non-Catholic hospital is in the better position and is committed to keeping its full menu of reproductive health services that outcome can be better for women," Uttley said.
The mergers become particularly troublesome to groups like Catholics for Choice when they would leave no other alternative for women to seek care, such as in rural areas with few hospitals.
St. Joseph began looking for a partner because of troubles it faced after complaints surfaced in 2009 that cardiologist Dr. Mark Midei performed hundreds of unnecessary medical procedures. The hospital notified approximately 600 patients that they had stents placed in their arteries that they might not have needed. Hundreds of those former patients have since sued St. Joseph and its parent company. Midei was forced to resign from the hospital and lost his license in Maryland, a decision he is fighting.
The hospital not only has lost revenue, but patient admissions, doctors and other staff. It also has agreed to increased federal oversight after an investigation into a kickback scheme that resulted in a $22 million settlement and repayment of funds for questionable procedures.
Only one of St. Joseph's suitors, St. Agnes Hospital, is a Catholic hospital. The other two, LifeBridge Health and the University of Maryland Medical System, are non-Catholic entities. LifeBridge Health's Sinai Hospital and its geriatric facility are Jewish institutions.
All three would benefit by expanding their systems into the Towson area and gaining new patients as the health care industry becomes more competitive.
LifeBridge and University of Maryland would not comment on the negotiations because they said they had signed confidentiality agreements.
University of Maryland spokeswoman Mary Lynn Carver said that in general the 12 hospitals in its system operate independently.
"UMMS does not dictate all aspects of operation for each of our hospitals and we are sensitive to the local needs of individual communities and the history each hospital had prior to joining UMMS," Carver said. "While UMMS is not a faith-based organization, that does not preclude us from having a faith-based organization in our group of hospitals."
Bonnie Phipps, president and CEO of St. Agnes, has remained quiet on a possible acquisition but has said, "St. Agnes Hospital supports a strong, vibrant Catholic healthcare ministry."
In a recent statement, St. Joseph said that it has looked at ways other Catholic hospitals have structured agreements with non-Catholic entities. They said that in most instances the Catholic identity of a hospital was respected.
"Catholic identity continues to be foremost in our consideration," St. Joseph said in a statement released earlier this month after confirming it had identified the three finalists.
The issue of reproductive services has played a role in several recent high-profile Catholic hospital mergers.
Swedish Health Services in Seattle agreed to stop offering abortions after merging with the Catholic health system Providence Health & Services.
Sierra Vista Regional Health Center in Arizona recently ended a trial affiliation with Carondelet Health Network because the Catholic health system banned reproductive services. The ban would have left women in two counties without access to women's services, according to Merger Watch, which protested the merger.
In 1998, St. Joseph looked to merge with its neighbor GBMC but plans were scuttled after women's groups learned GBMC would ban abortions under the deal. St. Joseph eventually amended the deal to allow abortions but the damage to public opinion had been done and St. Joseph eventually stopped the talks.
This time around, women's groups, including Maryland NARAL and the Women's Law Center of Maryland, have said they have no comment on the St. Joseph merger talks because they know little about the deal.
But reproductive health conflicts don't necessarily derail such mergers. Baltimore has many examples of Catholic hospitals that have merged harmoniously with non-Catholic affiliates. Some adopted the Catholic beliefs, while others didn't.
When Liberty Medical Center in West Baltimore merged with Bon Secours Baltimore Health System in the 1990s, it adopted the Catholic beliefs.
Memorial Hospital of Cumberland joined with Sacred Heart Hospital in the 1990s but continued performing sterilizations and other reproductive services. Both hospitals were eventually torn down and replaced with one hospital: Western Maryland Regional Medical System, which does not follow Catholic doctrine.
Columbia-based MedStar Health has three Catholic institutions in its nine-hospital system. The hospitals act independently so religious-based hospitals follow Catholic doctrines and the other affiliates follow their own rules.
"Compromise is possible," said O'Brien of Catholics for Choice. "But sometimes people have to fight to get that compromise."

24 Things encourages you to make room in your home, heart, and mind to create an inspired future.
One spring day in March, I headed into my basement to clear out the piles and boxes of old stuff. It turned into an exercise in introspection.
I wrote Princess of Garbage Day and was surprised at the reaction. People wrote and shared intimate stories of letting go and the fears attached.
I thought it would be an interesting exercise to let go of one item each day from April 1st until Easter, which fell on the 24th. I noticed how some items were really difficult for me to let go of but in the end I felt free. Free from my identification with the object and memory. Free to create something new to fill the space.
Letting go can be a challenge. We hold onto what we know because change is frightening and staying with the familiar, even if it makes us ill, and unhappy, feels better than venturing into the unknown. We sometimes feel that we are defined by our possessions or are the sum of our experiences.
Over-identifying with feelings or things can cut us off to life's bountiful possibilities.
When you let go and create freedom, in the home, mind or body, you create a sacred space. Inside this sacred space you can develop the faith that you will be provided for and cherished without the aid of material things.
24 Things is more than just cleaning house. It urges introspection, gratitude, and consciousness, and like any good yoga practice, it is done slowly, with a gentle nudge, and with Ahimsa (kindness)
Join me with 24 Things and together we can release the past with reverence and intention, create room for the new, cultivate faith in the future.
"The day I entered my first yoga class I was under the impression that I had something to acquire; a fit body, a spiritual path, like-minded friends. But I have not attained, I have let go; releasing beliefs that do not serve me, forgiving myself and others for mistakes, and relinquishing control over life's moments, allowing them to flow through me, as they are, not as I insist they should be.
I am not so enlightened that I can let go of all my memorabilia but choices strengthen my connection to the things I decide to keep. Somewhere between the cobwebs and the keep box I realize that if everything is "important" then nothing is."-The Princess Of Garbage Day

So many titles..so much time..
I am fully caffeinated as I sit here in front of my computer at 10PM. Hmmm, usually my bedtime on a Saturday night.
Today was too much fun to put to rest.
First off, Tyler's appendectomy went text book perfect on Thursday. Dr. Johnson removed the appendix via laproscope and was able to fix his hernia the same way. He has three small incisions that are giving him absolutely no pain. He has a very high tolerance for pain .. I wonder who he gets that from?
Tyler spent Thursday night in the hospital, resting. He didn't need to take any hits of his morphine and I haven't filled his Oxycontin prescription.
I asked him to call my cell as soon as he woke this morning, as he insisted I run Surph the Murph 50K and attend the UMTR AwardsFest. Sure enough, after the second loop I went to my car and on my cell was "Hi Mom. I'm fine. I slept well. No, I don't have pain. No, I didn't take any Advil. Yes, I peed. Yes, I ate breakfast. Now finish your run and have fun. See you tonight."
He knows me so well :)
The Surph the Murph 50K was a blast. I left the house by 430 so I wouldn't be late this time. Les had a Fat Ass 50K out here last year and I began the race a half hour late. Not so today. I even had 20 minutes to spare.
The weather was spectacular. A frosty start, but the afternoon was sunny and 50's. Beautiful. The course was gorgeous. Rolling hills, one after another, wide leaf covered trail with a few hidden rocks. Lovely.
There were 71 runners and this inaugural event! 2/3 of the runners were 50K and 1/3 25K, is what I believe, I heard. Les and Cindy did a great job of organizing and setting up the race.
I began near the back of the pack. With Javelina Jundred only 2 weeks out my plan was a last long training run. Slow and easy. I stuck to my plan. I ran the first hour with Jefferey. I haven't seen him much lately, so we had plenty to catch up on. At the 5.5 mile mark Jeff took a pit stop and I didn't see him again until the party tonight. I ran pretty much the rest of the race solo.
During the 50K I had 3 Hammergel and 3 bottles of water. I had no appetite, I wasn't very thirsty, I ran pretty easy.
I finished in 6:10; 3rd woman. Thanks for the fun, Les and Cindy!
After I finished I called home, all was well. I watched Dave, Pierre and Carl finish. We hung out and told stories. Pretty soon Maria came in, we packed up and headed to her home for a shower for the UMTR AwardFest.
By 400 we were at the site-setting up. We had a great turnout! There were 70 RSPV's. I'm not sure how many were actually in attendance. We advertised the party as potluck. There was something of everything-and lots of veggies and dips, salads; I was very happy with the array of healthy choices! Good stuff.
John did a great job MCing the party, the awards were great, the film was fun, the company was top notch. It was just a great night.
I went home with an award for the Afton 50K UMTR Championship Race Woman's Master and the UMTR Fab 5 50's Trail Series Woman's Master.
A very fun time, indeed. Now if I could only decaffeinate..and get some rest. Topaz and I have a run scheduled in the morning :)

Julie Berg I can't believe you have another 100 miler coming up!!! I thought I was bad signing up for a 100k before the end of the year :)
Hope you're feeling good for it. Sounds like a fun race. Will be in AZ myself the following weekend for IM. Nice time of year to be racing down there!
- SteveQ said...
I see Nigel Finney signed up for Javelina - I've never met him, but tell him I enjoy his hill at Afton.
And say hi to Michelle Barton for me...
- Ronda said...
Awesome Julie, your son sounds like he is a fine young man, strong and steady. Glad everything went well.
Congrats on another great run

Congrats on a great run. I am glad that your son is doing well, too. Good luck in the 100!

It's the End of the World as We Know It--And I Feel Like Looting!
I am here today to tell you that this is absolutely, unequivocally true.
How do I know?
Duh, I'm psychic, I know everything.
No, I won't help you pick winning lottery numbers.
And I'm not really THAT psychic. Even though Madam Marie's granddaughter told me that I am.
I'm relying on cold, hard facts this time.
Fact #1: The Mayans said it's happening. Clearly a civilization that disappeared over a thousand years ago was AWESOME at predicting the future.
The best theory out there about their disappearance was that they were kidnapped by aliens. It's true. Google it. Of course, the Wikipedia page on the Mayans says that they never disappeared, they just left their main cities due to a drought and were assimilated into other local cultures, but that's Wikipedia. Everyone knows that ANYONE can edit Wikipedia. Even the aliens that abducted the Mayans.
But the Mayans clearly knew that was coming because they disappeared without a trace, implying that they knew it was coming and had time to pack. See? If they say the world is ending, it's ending.
Fact #2: There's a movie about it. It's called 2012. I mean, I didn't see it, because the premise of the movie is that neutrinos are heating the Earth's core and ending the world, and my dad is one of the world's leading neutrino physicists and that premise was the stupidest thing I've ever heard in my life because that's NOT what neutrinos are or what they do.
Like literally. My dad was one of the head scientists who discovered that neutrinos have mass. He'd know if they were heating the Earth's core. And he'd tell me. Because he's my daddy.
But the fact that there's a movie about it means it's happening. Clearly.
Fact #3: It'll be 2015 in just over two years and hoverboard technology isn't close. We've just created a paradox in the space-time continuum big enough to destroy the whole universe. And the world is part of the universe. So it's ending too.
Fact #4: The Redskins aren't terrible this year. We have RGIII. We beat the Giants, the Eagles, AND the Cowboys. And even after RGIII got injured in the last game, we STILL won. If this isn't a sign of an impending apocalypse, I don't know what is.
See? Indisputable evidence that that world will be ending in exactly one week.
So what should you do?
That depends. If you're planning to survive the apocalypse, you should probably stock up on all the apocalypse essentials: shotguns, bottled water, Leonardo DiCaprio dvds, a generator (to run whatever you're going to watch the dvds on), non-perishable food items, and a zombie-English dictionary.
And, most importantly, Will Smith. Because if Hollywood has taught us anything, it's that no matter what the cause of the end of the world, Will Smith can not only survive it, he can also save the fractured remnants of society.
But if you're willing to throw in the towel and embrace the end of the world, as I am (I don't do well with zombies. And the only bottled water that my boyfriend will drink costs like $15 for a six pack. Seriously? It's water. It comes out of the tap AND the sky for free. That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard of it my life. Yet another sign that the world is ending: people will spend that much money on WATER. Bring on the apocalypse please, I'm done), your preparations can be a lot more fun.
For example, you know the Ten Days of Repentance in Judaism, when you're supposed to go around apologizing for all the wrongs that you've done to people? I plan to spend the next seven doing the opposite: I'm going to go around telling people EXACTLY what I think of them. I mean, the world is ending, there won't be any consequences. And I have a few people who I've been holding back on for YEARS. This will be awesome. Unless you're one of the people who has wronged me. In which case I'm about to use the present that I got my father for Hanukkah to tell you what an [expletive deleted] [expletive deleted] [expletive deleted] [expletive deleted] you are.
And all that dieting and exercising I've been doing this year? To hell with that! You can't undo a year's worth of effort in one week, so I'm eating whatever I want this week.
A whole pizza? Sure! Eighty-seven cookies? Why not! As long as my jeans still fit on Friday when the world ends, it's all good.
Time to max out those credit cards too. There's no way you'll have to pay that debt off, so buy whatever you want. It's your America folks!
What's the only thing more fun than spending money you don't have? That's right! It's looting! Go crazy! Take what you want! Why yes, I WOULD like to help myself to a Maserati! Thank you for asking. Oh, it was yours? That's a shame, it's mine now. And the beauty of this plan is that when EVERYONE starts looting, the cops will be too busy to do much about it. So yeah, a few unlucky souls might get caught and spend their last week locked up, but in this case, the odds are ever in your favor.
Then it's time to mess with peoples' heads. Because really, that's my primary joy in life anyway as a teacher. All you really need to do it this time is a good pair of wire cutters. Grab those suckers and start cutting any wires you see. Power? Gone. Cable and internet? Gone. Phones? No one uses a landline anyway, that won't really do anything. But if you can knock down a cell tower, you'll terrify EVERYONE. And without the ability to check Twitter to see what's happening, everyone will descend into mass panic and you can laugh at them for the last few minutes before the world actually ends.
Goodbye world, it's been fun.
Unless of course, the Mayans were somehow wrong, and you follow this advice, in which case my lawyer would like me to publicly state that I am not responsible for anything that happens to you as a result of your own actions.
Happy looting!

text: Air Conditioner Replacement: what to do when your air conditioner stops working Posted May 28, 2015 Summer and comfort are made for each other, but when you're dealing with an air conditioner that isn't providing you with the comfort you want, you may need to think about air conditioner replacement. Take a few moments and think about this scenario: it's only a few weeks in to the summer and you're enjoying an easy day at home. As lunchtime nears, you realize that it's beginning to feel awfully warm inside. You check the thermostat and all seems to be well with the settings, but the temperature reads 85 degrees. It's a possibility that you rode it out as much as you could, but now it's time to call in an expert and uncover what's wrong. So what does that mean for you as a homeowner? Well, there are a number of reasons that you might be facing air conditioner replacement. And considering the weather in Booneville, you don't want to be caught without what could be the single most significant piece of home comfort equipment you own. Here are a few things you should be looking for if you think your air conditioner has stopped working: Insufficient air flow. If you recognize a change in air flow, check for a blocked return-air or supply-air grille. Be sure all of these grilles are not obstructed by furniture or other items. Non-working outdoor fan. If you go outside to look at your air conditioner's outdoor fan and it doesn't run, you'll want to give the experts at Booneville Heating & Cooling LLC in Booneville a call. That fan handles the transferring of heat from your home to the outdoors. If it doesn't run, that heat transfer isn't happening and can cause various issues, including overheating of the compressor and other potential internal problems. Outside obstructions. If your air conditioner is currently bordered by shrubbery or other potential obstructions, there could be a problem with good air flow to the unit. Over time this could also mean that dirt and debris end up clogging your system and inhibiting its cooling abilities. Make sure your system is free from obstructions and is cleaned frequently to potentially lessen your chances of needing air conditioner replacement. Dirty filters. One of the most common problems that Booneville Heating & Cooling LLC runs in to is improperly cared for filters. Dirty filters not only decrease airflow, they can also effect your system's efficiency and can drive up your monthly energy costs. They also affect air quality and when allergy season is in full-swing, a dirty filter can have a great impact on your home comfort. If you have checked all of these and your air conditioner still isn't running, follow these step-by-step instructions, only going to the next step if the system doesn't start. Check that the thermostat temperature set-point is set below indoor temperature, and the system switch is in the COOL position. Is the outdoor unit power supply switch "on"? Is the furnace/air handler power supply "on"? Check the house fuse box/breaker box for a blown fuse or tripped circuit breaker. If the system still does not operate, call Booneville Heating & Cooling LLC at 662-269-8716. Having a non-working air conditioner and dealing with air conditioner replacement doesn't have to be a headache. Sure, your system may not be working , but that's why the staff at Booneville Heating & Cooling LLC in Booneville is here to help. Give us a call at 662-269-8716.

Another Spring ritual is over and done. Our Easter was kind of spread out over two weekends, as Rich's kids were all here last weekend rather than this past one.
The girls were very disappointed to hear that I wasn't planning a treasure hunt for them, so I relented and did one anyway. I used song titles (an idea from my sister Sandy, who is always very inventive) to lead them from one clue to another. Some they got quickly, others they really struggled with. Rich and I enjoyed watching them and I think they had fun.
I am eager to get my garden ready and get some things planted! I have a number of seedlings started in my garden room and just need the area to be tilled in order to get out there and plant some seeds and plants. Hopefully that will be this week.
My tulips out front seem to have weathered the snow and cold of late and though they are small, most of the bunches seem to be alright. Some haven't come up at all, but they may be later blooming ones. I hope.
We are seeing some nicer weather again, at least till mid-week when temperatures are supposed to drop again. Certainly the biggest adjustment to our move has been the climate. Oh, and the language barrier. lol

Mini-Munchers: Diamond Select Walking Dead Series 3
Walking Dead Minimates Releases…
The folks over at Diamond Select Toys have been having some fun with their Walking Dead Minimates. Check out the video they've put together to herald the release of the 3rd set of figures. This neat little flick was lensed and edited by Alex Kropinak and features Acorns to Oaks' Chris Ward as Rick on the voiceover and the music of Matt Takacs. Warning! Don't expect the same kind of mirth that Alex dishes out over at Marvel.Com's "Marvel Superheroes What The !?" This one is a mini reminder of how grim and gruesome Robert Kirkman's comic and the AMC's TV series can be.
The Riot Gear Rick Grimes and Dreadlock Pole Zombie are my two favorites this time around. You'll find Series Three at comics and specialty shops on June 12th, 2013, the exclusive Toys "R" Us packs are already lurking around TRU. Series 4 drops later this summer and features The Govenor and his henchmen, a poncho wearing variant of Michonne, along with Lori and baby Judith.
SkeletonPete Says…
I love Minimates, they're eminently photographable and it's easy to find some shelf space for them. Just don't display these zombie mini munchers too close to the edge of your bed if you want to wake up with a full set of toes.

Nearly 20,000 words were uttered during the first 2012 presidential debate between President Barack Obama and former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney. Some, even those uttered once (Big Bird), will be dissected and argued about ad infinitum until the next presidential debate on October 16. But the most commonly heard words were talking points many expected to be the focus of the night — save maybe 47 percent.
Tax (said 112 times), Medicare (61), businesses (57), health (51), insurance (49), jobs (38) all were among the most stated terms during the 90 minute debate moderated by Jim Lehrer. But instead of telling you, take a look yourself at the top 200 words you heard over and over tonight.

Davidson bombed out of the Southern Conference tourney in the semifinals, bringing their season to a halt at 26-7 and probably leaving last year's tourney darling on the outside looking in.
Yes, the Curry family won everybody's heart last March and hopes were high for Stephen and the Wildcats in this season. They started the year ranked in the Top 25 and scheduled several big time schools in order to test their mettle and up their tourney profile. Except they lost most of the games handily and got dumped by Butler in a "bracket buster" matchup just weeks ago. Now they couldn't even reach the finals in a conference that never pulls down at-large bids. So are we looking at a Stephen Curry-less NCAA tournament?
All year, the Wildcats fought the perception that they were nothing but a one-man team ... and they lost that fight. The selection committee may feel the urge to reward that one man with another shot in the Big Dance, but they shouldn't. Curry led the nation in scoring and his long range bombs wowed fans in 2008, but you aren't supposed to get credit for those things. Teams with much better resumes will not get it. Davidson had their chance and they made the most of it, but it's over. They won't duplicate that magic this time—although someone else who is currently unknown can ... and probably will. Believe it or not, we'll all be just fine without him.

Path::Resolver::Role::FileResolver - a resolver that natively finds absolute file paths
version 3.100454
The FileResolver role is a specialized form of the Resolver role, and can be used in its place. (Anything that does the FileResolver role automatically does the Resolver role, too.)
FileResolver classes have a native type of Path::Resolver::Types::AbsFilePath (from Path::Resolver::Types). Basically, they will natively return a Path::Class::File pointing to an absolute file path.
FileResolver classes also have a default converter that will convert the AbsFilePath to a Path::Resolver::SimpleEntity, meaning that by default a FileResolver's
entity_at will return a SimpleEntity. This entity will be constructed by reading the file in raw mode. In other words, it is the byte string contents of the file, not any decoded character string. If you want to a Unicode string of a file's contents, you must decode it yourself.
