Subject: Breaking from 'case'

Hi,
  is there any possibility to 'break' from 'case' ?

while run
    case x
        when 'b'
            ``skip'' if cond # how ????
            something_else
        else
            something
    end
    timer = Time.now
end

Is there any possibility (in the example above) to skip the rest
of "when 'b'" and continue at the line "timer = Time.now" using some
keyword/statement?

There's always if-else-end option, but it seems to be inelegant in this
case due to indent-level increasing (I have three ifs in the real code)

Thanks in advance, 
                            W.
