Adam Scott collapses again in British Open

GULLANE, Scotland (AP) ? Adam Scott's collapse in the final round at the British Open wasn't nearly as spectacular as it was a year ago.

The end result was still the same.

For the second year in a row Scott held the lead on the back nine; for the second year in a row he left without his name on the claret jug.

Even the green jacket he won in between at the Masters couldn't ease the sting of this one.

"I think the disappointing thing is this one I felt I wasted a little bit," Scott said Sunday. "I would have liked to be in at the end and no one was, actually. It's a shame."

No one was because Phil Mickelson closed so strongly he likely would have won the Open no matter what Scott or any of his fellow competitors did. But three straight bogeys on the back nine sealed the fate of the Masters champion, eliminating him from contention before he even had a shot at making a late run.

"I let a great chance slip, I felt, during the middle of the round and that's disappointing," Scott said. "Had I played a little more solid in the middle of that back nine I could have had a chance coming in."

Playing in the next-to-last group with Tiger Woods, Scott made a run at the lead when he sank a long putt on the eighth hole for birdie, then followed it with a two-putt birdie on the par-5 ninth. When he added yet another birdie on the short par-4 11th he was suddenly in the lead with seven holes to go.

Nothing new there. Last year at the Open at Lytham, Scott had a four-shot lead with four holes to play and all that seemed left to do was prepare his victory speech.

It quickly unraveled, though, with Scott finishing with a string of bogeys in one of the great collapses in golfing history. The image of his knees buckling when he missed a 7-foot putt to force a playoff with Ernie Els lingers still.

Compared to that, Sunday's back nine missteps paled by comparison. Once again, though, Scott began making bogeys and soon someone else was holding the Open trophy.

It began with a bad shot into the grassy dunes right of the 13th green that Scott almost got away with when he hit a great pitch to seven feet. But the putt lipped out, beginning a string of three straight bogeys that took him out of contention.

"I didn't get to the number that Phil finished on, but I was right there," Scott said. "Had I played a little more solid in the middle of that back nine, I could have had a chance coming in."

Scott's disappointment in a wasted opportunity was tempered by the fact Mickelson shot a 5-under 66 to finish the tournament at 3-under-par. But Scott was 2-under himself after the 11th hole, and it wasn't outside the realm of possibility that he might have made a few more birdies coming in.

He wasn't certain where he stood as he made his way into the back nine, though he had an idea Mickelson was making a move.

"The boards weren't working really very good," Scott said. "I had a look a couple of times, but they didn't really seem to make so much sense. I wasn't sure if they had it right. Phil kept moving up."

By the time Scott rolled in a final 20-footer on the last hole for birdie, Mickelson was already doing interviews and signing autographs off the final green. Scott finished four shots back, tied for third with third-round leader Lee Westwood and Ian Poulter.

Scott and Woods had a brief chat as they left the green, both feeling they had let one get away.

"It was just generic stuff," he said. "I think we both just kind of were disappointed with our performance today, to be honest."

That wasn't the case in April when the Australian with the long putter strung together a pair of 69s on the weekend to get into a playoff with Angel Cabrera to win the Masters. It was a breakthrough win for the 32-year-old, and especially satisfying since it came in the wake of his collapse at the British the year before.

After he lost the British last year, Scott said it he would learn from the experience. Despite missing again, he said he did.

"I'm happy with my week, other than I didn't win," he said. "But I lived up to my expectations of putting myself in contention with a chance. And it will just have to go down in the experience book and something to build on again."

Egypt mob yelled 'infidels' at Shi'ites beaten to death

By Alexander Dziadosz

ZAWIYAT ABU MUSALLEM, Egypt (Reuters) - Kasbana Abdelaziz's house guests had barely arrived when the mob was upon them, hurling petrol bombs and smashing holes through the roof of her home.

The attackers then dragged four men - Shi'ite Muslims who had come to this Cairo suburb for a religious festival - out into the street and beat them to death.

President Mohamed Mursi condemned the "heinous crime" that happened on Sunday and promised swift justice, but his opponents accuse him and his Muslim Brotherhood of allowing ultraconservative Salafist allies to whip up anti-Shi'ite sentiment in return for their support.

"They called us infidels," Abdelaziz, said, sitting on her floor amid broken concrete, shattered glass and splintered wood. Two of her daughters stood weeping in the room behind her.

The mob killing in Zawiyat Abu Musallem has caused outrage among opposition leaders in Egypt at a time of deep political tension in the Arab world's most populous country.

Little is left of Abdelaziz's house in the Cairo suburb, an area of mud-brick and concrete-block homes, narrow dirt alleyways and fields of date palms in view of the Giza pyramids.

The kitchen is stripped bare; a battered refrigerator door lies amid dust, scraps of cloth and bricks on the floor. Daylight pours in through holes in the ceiling. An image of the shrine of Imam Ali in Iraq, one of the holiest sites in Shi'ite Islam, hangs on a wall in the ransacked bedroom.

Abdelaziz had no doubt who was behind the destruction. "It was the Salafists and the Brotherhood - they're the ones who attacked us," she said. "They did things you can't imagine."

"INFIDELS"

Shi'ites are a small minority in Egypt - though still number in the hundreds of thousands - and they keep a low profile in the overwhelmingly Sunni country of 84 million. But the war in Syria, which pits mostly Sunni rebels against President Bashar al-Assad and his Shi'ite allies, has worsened sectarian hatreds across the region.

The violence in Zawiyat Abu Musallem started in the early afternoon, Abdelaziz and her daughters said, just after Hassan Shehata, a Shi'ite dignitary, arrived as a guest of her husband, a plasterer from the area.

Hundreds of men gathered in the rubbish-strewn alley outside the house when they learned Shehata was inside. "He'd only just entered and come up when we found all the people upon us," Abdelaziz said. "There was chanting - 'you Shi'ites, you infidels'. People were chanting and people were throwing bricks."

A video posted online showed a crowd dragging four men wearing robes from the house and beating them with fists and rods until they fell, bloodied and motionless, in the alley.

One comment on the video, which has gained several hundred "likes" on YouTube, addressed Shehata: "May your filthy soul lie in hell forever and ever. Amen."

Another video posted by rights activists showed dozens of men and youths looking on as several others drag the bloodied body of at least one man along a street, one pulling on what may be a rope around his neck.

In other sequences, a group of black-robed women on a crowded, narrow street chant "No God but God!" Riot police are present in the video, which shows an officer yelling out in frustration: "They're beating us!"

Abdelaziz said she did not know what had become of her husband, Farhat, but he may have been taken to hospital after the attack.

Bahaa Anwar, a leader in Egypt's Shi'ite community, was quoted by state newspaper al-Ahram as saying Mursi and the Brotherhood were using the Shi'ites as a "scapegoat" to appease their Salafist allies.

Liberal opponents of the Muslim Brotherhood also accused the movement of stirring up sectarian passions by joining in Sunni calls for jihad against Syria's Assad and his Shi'ite allies from Lebanon and Iran.

Mursi and the Brotherhood angered Salafists by trying to improve relations with Shi'ite Iran after Mursi was elected a year ago but this month the Islamist group threw its weight behind calls for "holy war" against Assad, at a conference in Cairo.

Mursi's opponents are planning mass rallies on June 30 to call for his resignation and early presidential elections - he and the Brotherhood have staged their own shows of strength, prompting Egypt's army to warn it may step in to impose order.

'Mad Men's' Don Draper boring? Not so fast!

18 hours ago

Carin Baer / AMC

Don Draper: Dark, mysterious and oh so fascinating!

When it came time for this season?s Monday morning water-coolering of ?Mad Men,? a common theme erupted nearly every week: ?Don Draper is soooooo boring.?

Should we interpret the show?s opening of a man falling as Don?s descent into dullsville? The people who feel Don didn?t say enough, feel enough or do enough this season might think so.

But if you?re part of a very select minority, it?s fair to respond to that notion with a resounding, ?COME ON.?

While the leading man has been one of few words and has spent many scenes scowling, sneering and often sweating, he?s been less than boring when you consider the sum of the parts.

Draper, having spent the bulk (if not all) of season five as doting husband to Megan, has finally gone back to his old ways -- cheating ways that is, bedding another woman countless times over the course of season six. But it?s not just any woman he?s taken up with: It?s his neighbor Sylvia Rosen (played so well by Linda Cardellini). Meeting any random woman and taking her back to her place? Boring. Having something resembling a relationship with your neighbor, whose husband is also a friend? Not boring at all.

And speaking of the ?relationship? between Don and Sylvia, that pretty much hit the skids in another entirely not-boring way. Linda?s husband, Arnold, or Don?s wife, Megan, potentially busting either guilty party was a tension that hung over the entire affair, but in the end it was Sally (poor Sally!) who ended up walking in on Dad ?comforting? their neighbor. Don?s relationship with Sally turns on a dime and changes probably forever. That?s not boring, and did we forget to mention? Neither is the fact that Don hooked up with Betty while they were both visiting Bobby at summer camp.

Most of these OMG moments did culminate in a sad Don Draper, or at a minimum, a very drunk one, and sure, that?s repetitive and tiresome at times. But in between, viewers also learned more of Don?s childhood this year. (So damaged! So relevant?) Fans witnessed seriously bad behavior (even for Don) at Roger?s mom?s funeral, and was it not fun to watch him make Ken completely flustered all season -- without really even doing much?

Yes, not doing much is what the ?Don is boring? camp will settle on, but when the season finale airs Sunday, true fans of the show might do right to keep in mind what ?Mad Men? creator Matthew Weiner has done all along each week: His episodes aren?t meant to be snapshots -- they?re all parts of one big story.

This season?s tale didn?t move along as quickly as others, but that doesn?t make it -- or the main character -- boring. Just more demanding.

Court says no to generic drug design lawsuits

WASHINGTON (AP) ? The Supreme Court says generic drug manufacturers can't be sued in state court for a drug's design defects if federal officials approved the brand-name version the generic drug copied.

The justices voted 5-4 to agree with generic manufacturer Mutual Pharmaceutical Co, Inc., which wanted a $21 million judgment against it dismissed.

A New Hampshire jury gave that to Karen L. Bartlett after she took sulindac, the generic form of the drug Clinoril, in 2004. It caused her outer skin layer to deteriorate and burn off, leaving at least 60 percent of her body as an open wound. She is also now legally blind.

The federal appeals courts upheld her verdict, but the justices said federal law pre-empts the New Hampshire law that allowed Bartlett's lawsuit.

Background mortality rates key to accurate reporting of vaccine safety risks

June 11, 2013 ? In a study using the Vaccine Safety Datalink (VSD), investigators analyzed four years of data and determined that background mortality rates (rates of death irrespective of cause) are crucial in interpreting the numbers of deaths following vaccination. The VSD mortality rate following immunization is lower than the general US population mortality rate, and the causes of death are similar. These background rates can be used in communications to the public about vaccine safety risks, reports the American Journal of Preventive Medicine.

Public concern about deaths and other adverse events following immunization can disrupt immunization programs and lead to an increase in vaccine-preventable disease.

"Determining the baseline mortality rate in a vaccinated population is necessary to be able to identify any unusual increases in deaths following vaccine administration," says lead investigator Natalie L. McCarthy, MPH, an epidemiologist at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). VSD mortality rates demonstrate a healthy vaccinee effect where rates were lowest in the days immediately following vaccination, most apparent in the older age groups. The healthy vaccinee effect suggests an avoidance or delay of vaccination when an individual is sick, leading to lower background rates of illness or mortality immediately following vaccination.

"Although there is currently no evidence to support a causal relationship between vaccinations and death, this study provides background mortality rates following vaccination to be used as a baseline when examining the safety profiles of new vaccines and during mass immunization campaigns," adds McCarthy.

Investigators from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and ten healthcare organizations (sites) that conduct vaccine safety research and surveillance, report on background mortality rates, describe causes of death following vaccination, and examine mortality rates by age, gender, and number of days following vaccination using data recorded in the Vaccine Safety Datalink (VSD).

The VSD is a collaborative project between the CDC and these sites and captures comprehensive medical and immunization histories for over ten million people annually, or approximately three percent of the US population. It uses administrative and other sources at each site to gather data on enrollee demographics, vaccination, and medical outcomes, including mortality. The VSD conducts planned immunization safety studies following the introduction of new vaccines or changes in the immunization schedule, as well as timely investigations of hypotheses that arise from review of medical literature, clinical case reports, or reports from the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), a national passive adverse-event reporting system.

Analyses were conducted in 2012. Mortality rates were calculated for deaths occurring one, seven, 30 and 60 days following vaccination between January 1, 2005 and December 31, 2008. The analyses were stratified by age and sex. Causes of death were examined, and findings were compared with National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) data.

Among 13,033,274 vaccinated people, 15,455 deaths occurred within 60 days following vaccination. The rates were highest in people of age 85 years and older, and increased over the period following vaccination. Eleven of the 15 leading causes of death in the VSD and NCHS overlap in both systems, and the top four causes of death were the same in both systems.

This study was supported by the Vaccine Safety Datalink contract with America's Health Insurance Plans, funded by the CDC. "The Vaccine Safety Datalink provides a vital infrastructure for monitoring vaccine safety, and generating background mortality rates is another asset of the vaccine safety system. Similar analyses should be conducted when new vaccines are added to the CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices recommended schedule, and would also be useful in other populations, including vulnerable subpopulations such as pregnant women and people with underlying health conditions," says McCarthy.
