Catholic Hospitals don’t although our hospital got away with it for awhile by calling it a Uterine Isolation. The bishop got wind of it and put the cabash on it. It is funny that men can still get a sterilization procedure in an office that bears the name of the hospital.Women may be referred to another hospital for the procedure. The real stinker is that a woman who is open for a C-section cannot have the procedure done when she knows that she has filled her duties (Not that I don’t think that many married Catholics can contribute to the greater good of society even if they do not become parents.)Women have had the go ahead from bishops to be sterilized and use birth control, but it is still not allowed. When I was young the hospital tried to prevent my insurance reimbursement for BCPs that I was using for PCOS, that got cleared up, but there still be some hospitals that will not pay for nurses to be sterilized if they are using hospital insurance. I am not sure if a bill has passed to stop this crap.HEALTHLegal case tests religious hospitals’ right to deny proceduresBob EgelkoAug. 25, 2015Updated: Aug. 25, 2015 2:41 p.m.CommentsRachel Miller poses for a portrait at her home in Redding, California, Saturday, August 22, 2015. Mrs. Miller, a Redding lawyer and pregnant mother, is due to give birth by C-section on Sept. 29 and wants to have her doctor perform a tubal ligation that the hospital, Mercy Medical Center in Redding, refuses to allow because of Catholic doctrine. Her ACLU lawyer says she'll sue if the hospital doesn't change its mind. Ramin Rahimian/Special to The ChroniclePhoto: Ramin Rahimian, Special to The ChronicleRachel Miller, due to have her second child in late September, agreed with her husband that this would be her last pregnancy and decided she would be sterilized by tubal ligation after giving birth. But her hospital in Redding, owned by Dignity Health in San Francisco, refused to allow her doctor to perform the procedure, saying tubal ligation violates the ethical principles of Catholic health care facilities.Now Miller’s case could become the springboard for a legal attack on barriers to reproductive procedures — other than abortions — at Catholic hospitals in California, whose numbers are steadily increasing.“Hospitals that are open to the general public and that receive state money shouldn’t be able to use religion to discriminate or to deny important health care,” said Elizabeth Gill, an American Civil Liberties Union attorney who represents Miller. She said the hospital receives state Medi-Cal funds as well as federal funding from both Medi-Cal and Medicare.Unlimited Digital Access for 95¢Read more articles like this by subscribing to the San Francisco ChronicleSUBSCRIBEIn an Aug. 17 letter to Mercy Medical Center in Redding, Gill said the ACLU would go to court unless the hospital reversed course and authorized the sterilization procedure. By denying “pregnancy-related care” to Miller, Gill wrote, the hospital is discriminating on the basis of sex, as defined by California law, and is also allowing “your corporate entity’s religious beliefs” to override a doctor’s medical decision, violating a state law against the corporate practice of medicine.‘It is not our practice’Replying to a reporter’s inquiry, the hospital said Wednesday that it “provides many women’s health services,” including childbirth and baby care. But it said that “in general, it is not our practice to provide sterilization services at Dignity Health’s Catholic facilities,” in keeping with Catholic hospitals’ Ethical and Religious Directives.Related StoriesBY BOB EGELKODignity Health to pay $37M to settle overbilling claimsBIZ & TECHANDREW S. ROSS, CHRONICLE COLUMNISTCatholic hospitals split on giving contraceptivesHEALTHBY VICTORIA COLLIVERBlue Shield warns clients it may end coverage with Sutter HealthThe hospital added, however, that Catholic hospitals may perform tubal ligations “on a case-by-case basis where a formal review by a committee of physicians and others permit the procedure.” And on Friday, Gill said the ACLU had learned that the hospital had contacted Miller’s physician and told him it was reconsidering its denial of the sterilization. A final decision is due Monday.Shocked at rejectionSUBSCRIBER BENEFITDid you know you have 10% off at San Francisco Wine School?Miller said earlier in the week that she had repeatedly called Mercy Medical Center, seeking an explanation after her doctor showed her the rejection letter he had received from the hospital in April. The hospital never responded.Rachel Miller poses for a portrait at her home in Redding, California, Saturday, August 22, 2015.

Her ACLU lawyer says she'll sue if the hospital doesn't change its mind. Ramin Rahimian/Special to The ChroniclePhoto: Ramin Rahimian, Special to The Chronicle“I was shocked to learn from my doctor that the hospital was telling me no and that the only basis for that was a religious doctrine,” Miller, a 32-year-old lawyer, said. “I have no problem with people practicing their religion. But because there are so many Catholic hospitals, especially in the north state where I live, it leaves women with very little choice.”Miller had her first child by cesarean section at Mercy Medical Center 2½ years ago and plans the same procedure this time. She said the closest alternative hospital that could perform the delivery and the sterilization procedure, and accepts her insurance, is at UC Davis, more than 160 miles away. The distance from home would mean that she would be away from her first child for three to five days during her hospitalization, she said.Tubal ligation, also known as “tying the tubes,” is a common surgical method for women to prevent future pregnancies. It is used by about 600,000 women in the United States each year, according to the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology.Miller’s case, if it goes to court, has a potentially broad impact because of the growth of Catholic hospitals. Dignity Health, the nation’s fifth-largest private health care system, owns 29 hospitals in California. More than half are affiliated with the Catholic Church, including St. Mary’s Medical Center in San Francisco.More Catholic hospitalsA study released by the ACLU in 2011 found that Catholic-affiliated hospitals had increased by 16 percent nationwide over the previous decade, while the overall number of hospitals had declined. A 2012 survey by the National Health Law Program found that nearly 15 percent of all U.S. hospital beds were in Catholic institutions.The hospitals’ Ethical and Religious Directives prohibit abortion, contraception, sterilization for both men and women — which the directives describe as “intrinsically evil” — and reproductive-assistance technology such as in vitro fertilization. The bans apply both to patients who rely on Dignity staff doctors and to those like Miller who bring in their own physicians.Those exclusions may conflict with state and federal laws governing health care and civil rights. But religious exemptions have been gaining ground in federal courts, most notably in the U.S. Supreme Court’s Hobby Lobby ruling last year, which allowed owners of the nationwide craft-store chain to deny contraceptive coverage to female employees for religious reasons.Rachel Miller poses for a portrait at her home in Redding, California, Saturday, August 22, 2015.

Her ACLU lawyer says she'll sue if the hospital doesn't change its mind. Ramin Rahimian/Special to The ChroniclePhoto: Ramin Rahimian, Special to The ChronicleIn a recent Catholic hospital case, the ACLU sued on behalf of a Michigan woman whose water broke midway through her pregnancy, a sign of premature labor and a possible stillbirth. Rather than telling her there was little chance the fetus could survive and that abortion was an option, she said, the hospital sent her home without treatment, relying on the church’s antiabortion directives, while she was in extreme pain, providing care only when she later miscarried. A federal judge dismissed the suit in June, saying he was unwilling to “intrude upon ecclesiastical matters.” The ACLU has appealed.But the outcome could be different in California.In the case of a landlady who refused to rent to an unmarried couple for religious reasons, the state Supreme Court ruled in 1996 that private businesses must comply with antidiscrimination laws, despite religious objections. And in 2004, the court said church-affiliated employers, like Catholic Charities and Catholic hospitals, were bound by a state law that entitles women to birth-control coverage in their workplace medical plans.Procedure’s timingCalifornia law allows Catholic hospitals to refuse to perform abortions but does not exempt them from providing other reproductive care, including sterilizations. Although sterilization is normally voluntary, major medical organizations say a tubal ligation immediately after a woman’s last intended pregnancy is such a safe and quick procedure, and so effective in preventing unwanted future pregnancies, that it should be considered “urgent” medical care.“The immediate (post-childbirth) period ... is the ideal time to perform sterilization because of technical ease and convenience for the woman and physician,” said the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists in a 2012 report. “Obstetrician-gynecologists need to identify themselves as champions or patient advocates for post-partum sterilization in their respective hospitals.”Bob Egelko is a San Francisco Chronicle staff writer.

GermanyIf Prussia hadn’t got rid of the monarchy then this would be the line of succession.Wilhelm II (27 January 1859 – 4 June 1941), anglicised as William II, was the last German Emperor (Kaiser) and King of Prussia, reigning from 15 June 1888 until his abdication on 9 November 1918.Wilhelm, German Crown Prince of Prussia (6 May 1882 – 20 July 1951) was the eldest child and heir of Wilhelm II. After the death of his grandfather Emperor Frederick III, Wilhelm became crown prince at the age of six, retaining that title for more than 30 years until the fall of the empire on 9 November 1918. Crown Prince Wilhelm became head of the House of Hohenzollern on 4 June 1941 following the death of his father and held the position until his own death on 20 July 1951.Prince Wilhelm of Prussia (4 July 1906 – 26 May 1940) was the eldest child of Crown Prince Wilhelm of Germany and Duchess Cecilie of Mecklenburg-Schwerin. At his birth, he was second in line to the German throne and was expected to succeed to the throne after the deaths of his grandfather and father, both of whom, however, outlived him. (On left in picture below. His brother, Louis Ferdinand, is on the right)Next in line, if females were allowed to get the throne, would have been Princess Felicitas Cecilie Alexandrine Helene Dorothea of Prussia, (7 June 1934–1 August 2009), married Dinnies von der Osten on 12 September 1958 and they were divorced in 1972, with issue.She had a son Dinnies Wilhelm Karl Alexander von der Osten (1962 - 1989) but he predeceased her. So her heir would have been Friederike Thyra Marion Wilhelmine Dorothea von der Osten born 14 July 1959.Her heir would have been Felicitas Catharini Malina Johanna von Reiche (b. 28 Oct 1986)Current Head of the House of HohenzollernSome may have renounced their rights to the throne, for example Prince Michael was the second son of Louis Ferdinand, Prince of PrussiaHaving made the decision to contract a non-dynastic marriage, he submitted to his father (then head of the family) a renunciation on behalf of himself and his future descendants to the family's claim to the defunct thrones of Imperial Germany and Royal Prussia. On 23 September 1966, he married in Düsseldorf Roman Catholic commoner Jutta Jörn (born in Gießen, 27 January 1943). The couple had two daughters together prior to divorcing on 18 March 1982.Princess Michaela Marie of Prussia (born 5 March 1967); married, on 14 February 2000, Jürgen Wessoly, with whom she has two children.Princess Nataly Alexandra Caroline of Prussia (born 13 January 1970, Frankfurt am Main)Also Prince Michael’s older brother Prince Friedrich Wilhelm renounced his rights to the throne.So the current head of the house of Hohenzollern is Georg Friedrich who succeeded his grandfather, Louis Ferdinand as head of the house.The current pretender to the throne of Prussia is Georg Friedrich Ferdinand, Prince of Prussia (born 10 June 1976), the current head of the Prussian branch of the princely House of Hohenzollern. He is the great-great-grandson and historic heir of Wilhelm II, the last German Emperor and King of Prussia.On 20 January 2013, Georg Friedrich's wife, Sophie, gave birth to twin sons in Bremen, Carl Friedrich Franz Alexander and Louis Ferdinand Christian Albrecht. Carl Friedrich, the elder of the two, is his father's heir apparent. Their third child, Emma Marie Charlotte Sofia, was born on 2 April 2015. On 17 November 2016, Sophie gave birth to Heinrich Albert Johann Georg, their fourth child.So there are several possibilities. The public don’t care if any more senior claims renounced their rights to marry commoners, that rule is probably outdated.RussiaGrand Duchess Maria Vladimirovna of Russia (born 23 December 1953) has been a claimant to the headship of the Imperial Family of Russia since 1992. Although she has used Grand Duchess of Russia as her title of pretence with the style Imperial Highness throughout her life, her right to do so is disputed. She is a great-great-granddaughter in the male line of Emperor Alexander II of Russia.Nicholas Romanovich Romanov, Prince of Russia (26 September 1922 – 15 September 2014) was a claimant to the headship of the House of Romanov and president of the Romanov Family Association. Although undoubtedly a descendant of Tsar Nicholas I of Russia, his claimed titles and official membership in the former Imperial House were disputed by those who maintained that his parents' marriage violated the laws of Imperial Russia.Prince Nicholas and his wife, Countess Sveva della Gherardesca (born 1930), had three daughters:Princess Natalia Nikolaevna Romanova (born 1952), married to Giuseppe Consolo (born 1948). Her daughter is the Italian actress Nicoletta Romanoff.Princess Elisaveta Nikolaevna Romanova (born 1956), married to Mauro Bonacini (born 1950);Princess Tatiana Nikolaevna Romanova (born 1961), married firstly to Giambattista Alessandri (born 1958), then Giancarlo Tirotti (born 1947).Prince Andrew Romanoff (21 January 1923) is a Russian American artist and author. He is a grand-nephew of Russia's last Tsar, Nicholas II. He is a great-great-grandson in the male line of Emperor Nicholas I of Russia and since the death of Prince Dimitri Romanov in 2016 a claimant to the headship of the House of Romanov.Prince Andrew has been married three times. He was married firstly in San Francisco on 9 September 1951 to Elena Konstantinovna Dourneva (5 May 1927, Tokyo – 31 May 1992, Oakland) and had one sonPrince Alexis Andreevich Romanov (born 27 April 1953, San Francisco). He married on 19 September 1987 in Oakland, California, to Zoetta "Zoe" Leisy (born 25 November 1956, Memphis, Tennessee), daughter of Robert Leisy and Ellen Telfer. No issue. Prince Alexis Andreevich is heir to his father as Head of the House of Romanov.He was married secondly in San Francisco on 21 March 1961 to Kathleen Norris (1 March 1935 – 8 December 1967). They had two children:Prince Peter Andreevich Romanov (born 21 November 1961). He married on 2 May 2009 in Marin County, California, to Barbara Anne Jurgens (born 1968). No issue. He is second in the line of succession to the title of the head of the Romanov Family.Prince Andrew Andreevich Romanov (born 20 February 1963). He married on 12 July 1986 in Point Reyes Station, California, to Elizabeth Flores (born 25 April 1964). He is third in the line of succession to the title of the head of the Romanov Family. They have one daughter:Princess Natasha Catherine Romanov (born 2 February 1993, Greenbrae, California).

The far left is so full of hate they’re not thinking correctly or being honest with themselves. They’re condoning riots in the streets by ANTIFA a known terrorist group, and by BLM when in fact ALL LIVES MATTER. Anything our President does they will riot and protest without even considering the facts. Liberals think with their heart, not with their brain.The far right are not much better at civil discussions. The whole country is in turmoil because of politics, there’s too much unwarranted hatred of President Trump for the left to think straight and the right are sick and tired of the lefts childish behavior.But just so nobody thinks this is something new or somehow worse than anything we’ve gone through as a nation, I have listed some other times of political unrest in the U.S that I got off the internet.1783 – Pennsylvania Mutiny of 1783, June 20, Anti-government protest by soldiers of the Continental Army against the Congress of the Confederation, Mayhue, Pennsylvania1786 – Shays' Rebellion, August 29, 1786 – February 3, 1787, Western Massachusetts1788 – Doctors Mob Riot, New York City1791–1794 – Whiskey Rebellion, Western Pennsylvania (anti-excise tax on whiskey)1799 – Fries Rebellion,1799–1800, Tax revolt by Pennsylvania Dutch farmers.
