  • Penalties for Hospital Acquired Conditions
    Penalties For Hospital Acquired Infections Kaiser Health News Penalties For Hospital Acquired Conditions Medicare is penalizing hospitals with high rates of potentially avoidable mistakes that can harm patients, known as "hospital-acquired conditions." Penalized hospitals will have their Medicare payments reduced by 1 percent over the fiscal year that runs from October 2014 through September 2015. To determine penalties, Medicare ranked hospitals on a score of 1 to 10, with 10 being the worst, for three types of HACs. One is central-line associated bloodstream infections, or CLABSIs. The second if catheter- associated urinary tract infections, or CAUTIs. The final one, Serious Complications, is based on eight types of injuries, including blood clots, bed sores and falls. Hospitals with a Total HAC Score above 7 will be penalized.

  • “I Love This Penn State – but Freedom Is Dearer to Me”
    “I Love This Penn State – But Freedom Is Dearer To Me” H. Jesse Arnelle: “A Love-Wait Affair” – May 18, 1968 (Note: On May 18, 1968 H. Jesse Arnelle, the former Nittany Lion Basketball All-American, and Football All-American honorable mention, was the guest of honor at the Penn State Football Awards Banquet. Arnelle would stun many in the crowd by denouncing the University’s record in failing to recruit more Black students, faculty and staff, instead of talking about sports. He further shocked many by turning down the first Annual Alumni Award in protest. The following is a partial text of H. Jesse Arnelle’s speech delivered that evening as printed in the November 19, 1968 Daily Collegian.) These are very dissimilar times from the decade of the 1950s when I attended Penn State University. Rather than embroider further the “sweet smell of success,” which is the obvious theme of this evening’s occasion, I have had to reluctantly decide to go at variance with precedence. Forego the pleasure of polite banality and not give into what would be very heavy nostalgia, but use the time instead to speak of our monumental and historical failures; the things that bring dishonor instead of glory to the University; issues pivotal to our time, heavy on my conscience and lay uncomfortably on the hearts of most American. Since it has been over a decade when I was last amongst you… and since it may be another before I return, I ask that you indulge me a little longer than the twenty-five minutes allowed.

  • 48 Hours in State College, Pennsylvania
    48 Hours in State College, Pennsylvania You could visit State College, Pennsylvania, and spend hours debating the merits and achievements of Penn State athletics. You could even try to figure out what exactly a Nittany Lion is? Or you could leave the diehard fans snug in their blue-and-white bubbles and trust that the Nittany Lion is a mountain lion that hasn’t roamed the slopes of nearby Mount Nittany in more than 125 years. If you take the second option—and you should—you’ll be able to spend every waking minute of your 48 hour visit to State College hiking, biking, fishing and imbibing your way around this picturesque college town. Day 1: It’s a popular spot to hike, but since you’re in Nittany Lion country, may as well hike Mount Nittany. The trail’s only 4.6-miles long but it’s dog-friendly (keep them on a leash, please) and has some excellent view of town and campus, so make this one of your first stops to get acquainted with the landscape. There are numbered spots along the trail, and most follow it going from 1 to 10, but if you go the other way—10 to 1—you’ll conquer some thigh-quivering stairs first thing and earn a little more solitude on the trail. The view from the top on Mount Nittany A longer hike, and one where you can earn more alone time as you put more miles under your boots, is Pennsylvania’s Mid State Trail. This 320-mile trail bisects the state, running from Maryland to New York and going right by State College on the way.
