| Exempla asks judge to toss AG's approval of hospital sales
It seeks to reverse John Suthers' ruling from last month. State lawmakers also have introduced two bills aimed at restricting similar hospital transactions and ensuring that all proceeds from such sales be spent on medical services. If the $311 million sale goes through, both hospitals would be completely owned by Sisters of Charity of Leavenworth Health System, a Kansas nonprofit that already controls 50 percent of the two hospitals. Arvada nonprofit Community First Foundation wants to sell its interest to Sisters of Charity. Catholic hospitals must follow ethical and religious directives that prohibit doctors from performing birth control procedures such as abortions, vasectomies and tubal ligations unless deemed medically necessary. Medical staff members at Catholic hospitals also are restricted from removing feeding tubes from patients in a vegetative state.

Bank of America seeks bail out of Countrywide with $4.1 billion offer
CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- In a career defined by blockbuster deals, Bank of America chief executive Ken Lewis has taken his biggest gamble yet with an attempt to rescue the country's biggest mortgage lender, Countrywide Financial. Lewis may have become a market savior by buying the troubled Countrywide for about $4 billion in stock, and keeping the industry and regulators from the messy task of cleaning up the bankruptcy of a company that is servicing 9 million U.S. home loans worth $1.5 trillion. But Bank of America must first take on billions in mortgages at a time when the nation is facing an ever-widening credit crisis, foreclosures are on the rise and the odds of a recession seems to grow each day. The prize for Lewis' gamble, however, is a "state of the art" mortgage origination and backoffice business on the cheap.
Hume to Conservatives: 'Get Off McCain's Back '
Increase size of the Amry & Marines (Barack said he wants to do that) Appoint judges like Scalia, Thomas, and Roberts (we already know McCain hates Alito) Promise to expell illegal aliens, at the same time you build a fence.

I don't expect to be voting for him. Pledge to not support RINOs ever again! .
Narodny Rock and the G7's Men of Action
Barely three months later in Sept. 2007, however, the global banking crisis had spread onto Britain's high streets, creating the first open "banking run" in more than 130 years at Northern Rock - one of the nation's top five mortgage lenders. Darling has clearly been hard at work ever since...fixing everything that let Northern Rock go from £12.29 per share to £0.52 on the stock market - a full 95% slump - as it soaked up £26 billion ($50.4bn) in emergency loans from the Bank of England. The G7's Men of Action "What you can do at an international level, I believe, is make sure we have better early warning systems," he told CNBC in a relaxed chat last week after the G-7 summit in Tokyo. "[We can] make sure that, er, when it comes to, er, off-balance sheet arrangements, or when it comes to the way that credit reference...er, credit rating agencies behave, then there does need to be international co-operation.
