The renowned Truven Health Analytics annual 100 Top Hospitals study uses objective research and independent public data to recognize the best hospitals in the nation. Hospitals do not apply, and winners do not pay to market this honor. Study results and winner lists are highly anticipated each year and have been for two decades.
Our study is unique in that it evaluates hospitals on measures of overall organizational performance, including patient care, operational efficiency, and financial stability. It compares hospitals only against similar facilities in terms of size and teaching status.
Identified from nearly 3,000 U.S. hospitals, our award winners demonstrate that high-quality patient outcomes can be achieved — while improving efficiency.
As always, our selected award winners have achieved performance excellence and are leading their peer hospitals toward unprecedented improvements in healthcare. Based on the results of this year's study, if all Medicare inpatients received the same level of care as those treated in the award-winning facilities:
Watch for our 2015 study release in the spring of 2015.

(CNN) -- James Comey, who served as a top Justice Department official during George W. Bush's presidency, was tapped to become the next director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation Friday.
If confirmed by the Senate, Comey would replace Robert Mueller, who is leaving in September after leading the bureau for 12 years.
"Jim is exceptionally qualified to handle the full range of challenges faced by today's FBI," President Barack Obama said during Friday's Rose Garden announcement. "From traditional threats like violence and organized crime, to protecting civil rights and children from exploitation, to meeting transnational challenges like terrorism and cyber threats."
Comey's caseload as a former prosecutor who worked in New York and Virginia included terrorism, organized crime and fraud. He served as a deputy attorney general during the Bush administration, a role for which he has received both praise and criticism from outside groups.
Comey testified to a Senate committee in 2007 that he considered resigning his high-profile position over a disagreement three years earlier about the National Security Agency's domestic surveillance program.
Government officials had told CNN that Comey had "vigorously opposed" aspects of the warrantless wiretapping program and refused to sign off on its continued use. The program was eventually reauthorized.
The appointment comes as the Obama administration wrestles with new controversy surrounding NSA surveillance involving phone records and e-mail - something Obama alluded to Friday.
"As we've seen in recent days, this work of striking a balance between our security, but also making sure we are maintaining fidelity to those values that we cherish, is a constant mission," Obama said, noting he was "confident that Jim will be a leader who understands how to keep America safe and stay true to our founding ideals no matter what the future may bring."
Human rights groups have criticized Comey's alleged support of other controversial Bush-era national security policies such as indefinite detention and detainee treatment programs like waterboarding.
Since leaving government, Comey has worked in executive positions at defense contractor Lockheed Martin and the financial management firm Bridgewater and Associates.
Currently he works in academia as a senior research scholar and Hertog Fellow in National Security Law at Columbia Law School.
Mueller officially started the FBI job days before the 9/11 terror attacks and later saw the agency through terrorism and other high-profile cases.
Mueller's term had been set to expire in September 2011 -- per the 10 years that FBI directors typically serve -- but, at Obama's request, Congress approved a two-year extension. He's now scheduled to step down in September.
On Friday, Obama thanked the outgoing FBI director, saying "Countless Americans are alive today and our country is more secure because of the FBI's outstanding work under the leadership of Bob Mueller."

Endoscopy is a way of looking inside the body using a flexible tube that has a small camera on the end of it. This instrument is called an endoscope.
Small instruments can be inserted through an endoscope and used to:
An endoscope is passed through a natural body opening or small cut. There are many types of endoscopes. Each one is named according to the organs or areas they are used to examine.
Endoscopy is often used to examine and treat parts of the digestive tract, such as:
Bronchoscopy is used to look in the airways and lungs.
Cystoscopy is used to view the inside of the bladder. The scope is passed through the opening of the urethra.
Laparoscopy is used to look directly at the ovaries, appendix, or other abdominal organs.
Arthroscopy is used to look directly in the joints.
The preparation for the test varies greatly, depending on the test. For example, there is no preparation needed for anoscopy, whereas a special diet and laxatives are needed to prepare for a colonoscopy. Check with your doctor about what preparation is required for your test.
All of these tests cause discomfort or pain. Some of them are done after sedatives and pain medications are given. Check with your doctor about what to expect.

Aging changes in the skin are a group of common conditions and developments that occur as people grow older.
Wrinkles - aging changes; Thinning of skin
Skin changes are among the most visible signs of aging. Evidence of increasing age includes wrinkles and sagging skin. Whitening or graying of the hair is another obvious sign of aging.
Your skin does many things. It protects you from the environment, helps control your body temperature and fluid and electrolyte balance, and contains nerve receptors that allow you to feel sensations such as touch, pain, and pressure.
Although skin has many layers, it can be generally divided into three main parts:
Skin changes are related to environmental factors, genetic makeup, nutrition, and other factors. The greatest single factor, though, is sun exposure. This can be seen by comparing areas of your body that have regular sun exposure with areas that are protected from sunlight.
Natural pigments seem to provide some protection against sun-induced skin damage. Blue-eyed, fair-skinned people show more aging skin changes than people with darker, more heavily pigmented skin.
With aging, the outer skin layer (epidermis) thins, even though the number of cell layers remains unchanged.
The number of pigment-containing cells (melanocytes) decreases, but the remaining melanocytes increase in size. Aging skin thus appears thinner, more pale, and clear (translucent). Large pigmented spots (called age spots , liver spots, or lentigos) may appear in sun-exposed areas.
Changes in the connective tissue reduce the skin's strength and elasticity. This is known as elastosis and is especially pronounced in sun-exposed areas (solar elastosis). Elastosis produces the leathery, weather-beaten appearance common to farmers, sailors, and others who spend a large amount of time outdoors.
The blood vessels of the dermis become more fragile. This leads to bruising, bleeding under the skin (often called senile purpura), cherry angiomas , and similar conditions.
Sebaceous glands produce less oil as you age. Men experience a minimal decrease, usually after the age of 80. Women gradually produce less oil beginning after menopause. This can make it harder to keep the skin moist, resulting in dryness and itchiness.
The subcutaneous fat layer thins, reducing its normal insulation and padding. This increases your risk of skin injury and reduces your ability to maintain body temperature. Because you have less natural insulation, you can get hypothermia in cold weather.
Some medications are absorbed by the fat layer, and loss of this layer changes the way that these medications work.
The sweat glands produce less sweat. This makes it harder to keep cool, and you are at increased risk for becoming overheated or developing heat stroke .
Growths such as skin tags , warts , and other blemishes are more common in older people.
As you age, you are at increased risk for skin injury. Your skin is thinner, more fragile, and the protective subcutaneous fat layer is lost. In addition, your ability to sense touch, pressure, vibration, heat and cold may be reduced. Thus, your skin is at higher risk for injury.
Rubbing or pulling on the skin can cause skin tears. Fragile blood vessels are easily broken. Bruises, flat collections of blood (purpura), and raised collections of blood (hematomas ) may form after even a minor injury.
This is most easily seen on the outside surface of the forearms, but can occur anywhere on the body. Skin changes and loss of subcutaneous fat, combined with a tendency to be less active, as well as some nutritional deficiencies and other illnesses contribute to pressure ulcers.
Aging skin repairs itself more slowly than younger skin. Wound healing may be up to 4 times slower. This contributes to pressure ulcers and infections. Diabetes , blood vessel changes, lowered immunity, and similar factors also affect healing.
Skin disorders are so common among older people that it is often difficult to tell normal changes from those related to a disorder. More than 90% of all older people have some type of skin disorder.
Skin disorders can be caused by many conditions, including:
Other causes of skin changes:
Sunlight can cause:
Sun exposure has also been directly linked to skin cancers, including basal cell cancer, squamous cell carcinoma, and melanoma.
Because most skin changes are related to sun exposure, prevention is a lifelong process.
Good nutrition and adequate fluids are also helpful. Dehydration increases the risk of skin injury. Sometimes minor nutritional deficiencies can cause rashes, skin lesions , and other skin changes, even if you have no other symptoms.
Keep skin moist with lotions and other moisturizers. Do not use soaps that are heavily perfumed. Bath oils are not recommended because they can cause you to slip and fall. Moist skin is more comfortable and will heal more quickly.

Creative takes on the classic Irish soda bread
Wednesday, March 13, 2013
This classic Irish quick bread — no rising time needed — lends itself to numerous creative variations. Traditional recipes often call for nothing but flour, salt, baking soda and buttermilk or yogurt. Currants are a common addition, but that's just the start. Any number of seeds, nuts, chopped dried fruit and even chocolate can be added.
4 cups white pastry flour 3 tablespoons sugar 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon caraway seeds (optional) 6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter, melted � cup dried currants, plumped in hot water 1 egg 1-2/3 cups buttermilk or plain regular yogurt (not Greek style) Heat the oven to 400 F. Coat a loaf pan or a 9-by-9-inch baking pan with cooking spray. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, salt, baking soda and caraway seeds, if using. While stirring, mix in the melted butter until small lumps form and the butter has been evenly distributed. Gently stir in the currants. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and buttermilk. All at once, pour the egg-buttermilk mixture into the flour mixture. Stir gently but thoroughly, just until the flour mixture is moistened. Do not over-mix the dough or the bread will be tough. Scoop the dough into the prepared pan and bake for 30 to 40 minutes, or until a wooden skewer or cake tester inserted at the center comes out clean. Allow to cool in the pan for 5 to 10 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack. Serve warm with butter or jam.
OATMEAL-RYE SODA BREAD WITH HERBS AND WALNUTS Follow the recipe above, but instead of white pastry flour substitute 2 � cups whole-wheat pastry flour, 1 cup oatmeal and 1 cup rye flour. Omit the caraway seeds. In place of the currants, stir in 3 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme, 3 tablespoons chopped fresh chives and 1 cup chopped toasted walnuts. Bake as directed. Nutrition information per serving: 300 calories; 130 calories from fat (43 percent of total calories); 14 g fat (5 g saturated; 0 g trans fats); 35 mg cholesterol; 36 g carbohydrate; 6 g fiber; 5 g sugar; 8 g protein; 300 mg sodium. DOUBLE CHOCOLATE CHERRY SODA BREAD Follow the main recipe, but sift � cup cocoa powder into the dry ingredients in the first step. Also, increase the sugar to 2/3 cup and omit the caraway seeds. In place of the currants, stir in 1 cup chopped dried cherries and 1 cup chopped dark chocolate. Bake as directed.

Judges' Pick
Giving easy solutions to complex problems could be, at least a way to look problems different.
My goal with the whole campaign is to "take it easy". according to the Occam Principle, fixed in our common sense: "the easiest solution to a complex problem is always the right one", but going ahead of this known phrase, this principle also says that "entities should not be multiplied beyond necessity".
Problems should not be multiplied behind words, each phrase used as a slogan in each image is an action, builded not in an imperative way but in an propositive way, and each sign uses the tacit smile as an universal sign of happiness through another important symbols reffering each category of the millenium promise.

We will feature three hours of some of the most unique music to come out of the Crescent City. Special guests will include Mardi Gras Indians from several gangs and long-time WWOZ host John Sinclair.
Maria Neckam is a singer and songwriter from New York, who was born in Austria and has also lived in the Netherlands. When Maria moved to New York in 2005, she hit the music scene with great success. Since then she has been working as one of the most innovative musicians on the scene. Maria often tours the United States and Europe from her home base in Brooklyn.
Like a lot of the women I know, I am a fan of burlesque shows. It's interesting. Ask most women if they would like to go see burlesque and, most likely, they will jump at the chance. Ask if they want to go and watch another type of 'exotic' dancer, and the reaction is rarely as enthusiastic.

- get ready for an etsy shop update (think I-spy)
- finish proofing the pattern for this quilt
- tidy-up and organize my sewing space
- maybe even finally hang these hoops on the wall!
(Who am I kidding. Those hoops will probably still be waiting for me Monday morning.)
PS Thanks for the new red quilt love. The fabric line is mostly French General's Lumiere de Noel by Moda

Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
If I have a melanoma lesion removed, could others develop?
Christopher Miller, MD, Assistant Professor in Dermatology and Director of the Moh's Surgery Program at Penn Medicine, responds:
About 11% of people who have a melanoma have a second melanoma diagnosed within the next 2 years after their diagnosis. The increased risk to develop a second melanoma persists for more than 20 years. So keep a close watch on your skin.
This question and answer was part of the OncoLink Brown Bag Chat Series: Sun Safety and Skin Cancer Prevention Webchat. View the entire transcript on Sun Safety.
Apr 1, 2010 - Melanoma survivors have a substantially higher risk of developing subsequent melanoma, as well as a higher risk of developing several other types of cancer, according to research published in the March issue of the Archives of Dermatology.
