9 Billion People + 1 Earth = ? - Andrew Revkin, Senior Fellow at Pace University and Dot Earth blogger for The New York Times. After two centuries of explosive growth, the planet's human population is widely seen as cresting within the next couple of generations. A mid-range best guess for the peak remains roughly 9 billion people. There are even signs that resource-sapping activities will hit a peak as well. Will we overheat or innovate, conserve or despoil, crash or round the curve with a few scrapes? Andrew Revkin will present an optimistic, but realistic, exploration of ways to share and shape ideas that can foster progress on a finite planet. Reception will follow lecture.

Before beginning, make sure all ingredients are at room temperature.
Put 1 cup water, eggs, honey, and oil in bread machine; then add all but the last three ingredients. Turn machine to "dough setting." (During the first kneading, add a bit more water if the dough is not elastic enough.) At the end of the cycle, punch down, knead briefly, and form into two loaves. Place in oiled bread pans, cover, and let rise until doubled in bulk.
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Whisk an egg yolk and a pinch of salt with 1 Tbsp. water in a measuring cup, and brush the loaves with this mixture. Bake for about 35 minutes or until golden.
Note: If you wish to have braided bread, stretch and roll each loaf into ropes; arrange side by side on a floured surface and intertwine. Bake on an oiled baking sheet instead of in the pan.
Yield: 8–12 servings
"Stoneware water pots were there, used by the Jews for ritual washings. Each held twenty to thirty gallons."
John 2:1–10, The Message
It's a dangerous task for the writer to attempt to comment on the wedding feast at Cana, as it is considered by many in the Christian tradition to exemplify the miracles of Jesus. Turning water into wine is not an everyday affair, and to our knowledge there are no recipes for doing so, neither in ancient cookbooks nor in the magical tomes of antiquity. Nor is there a lot of information in the Bible (or elsewhere) on matrimonial customs of the Galilean middle class in the 1st century. Perhaps the best we can do is to read between the lines and interpolate a scenario based upon later (and current) traditions in order to give us a fair idea of the type of feast Jesus and his disciples attended in Cana so long ago.
The exact location of Cana is uncertain. Latin and Orthodox churches point to a modern-day site known as Keft Kenna, about four miles northeast of Nazareth. However, most scholars agree that the more likely spot is at the ancient village of Khirbet Qana on a hill about nine miles to the north of Nazareth. Who the party was that was getting married and the name of the host are not part of the biblical narrative, but as Nathanael of Cana is mentioned just a few verses earlier (ch. 1:45ff.), some have supposed that the invitation to the wedding might have come through him.

The festivities probably began on the third day of the week as was the prevailing custom, and continued for another four. Reclining guests (men) ate on floor mats, consuming lots of food and wine between listening to music and dancing. Women congregated elsewhere and were not part of the main activities of the celebration, remaining "behind the scene." Mary and other female relatives of Jesus were apparently present—which, one tradition suggests, indicates that the bride was probably a close relation. According to the same source, the customs for that time required that there be a feast of roasted lamb and herbs, bread, and a lot of wine, which was used both for drinking and in the preparation of the foods.1
Just what other foods might have been at the myriad of tables set up for guests is uncertain. If it were a typical Palestinian wedding feast of the era, some writers, such as the authors of The Good Book Cookbook, have speculated that the feast would also have included, at the very least, olives, sardines, grapevine leaves, millet, dried apricots, dates, almonds, raisins, duckling, pomegranates, and rice.2 Whatever was served, it was not in stingy portions.
When Jesus and his disciples arrive at the feast, it is apparently a few days into the celebration, as the wine is running short. This was a very serious matter; so Mary, who apparently had some role in the wedding celebration, approaches Jesus to see what can be done.3 Just how it is accomplished is a matter between theologians and the faithful, but the biblical story reports that the water is changed into wine. What is particularly noteworthy is the abundance of wine that is delivered as a result of Jesus' actions: 120 gallons! (Or more, if you consider that the Jews typically diluted their wine seven parts [water] to one [wine].) The water into wine is really a most generous gesture and gift, which the early Christian Church came to interpret as a prototype of God's heavenly banquet reserved for believers.
In Jewish tradition, marriage is held to be the ideal state, and all Jewish men and women are generally encouraged to marry. For the peoples of the Old Testament (particularly the Jewish Torah), polygyny was the most common form of marriage. Polygyny is defined as "the practice of having more than one wife or female mate at one time," and the scriptures provide many examples of polygyny: Abraham had both a wife and a concubine; Jacob had two wives and two concubines; King David had eight wives; King Solomon was said to have had seven hundred wives and three hundred concubines. Often a slave would become the wife or concubine of her master, and sometimes a childless wife would offer her serving girl to her husband in order to produce heirs. Although there was no legal limit and a man could have as many as he could afford to support, it was really only the very wealthy or powerful who had more than one or at most two wives or concubines.
The Jewish prophets, such as Hosea and Isaiah, seem to have been proponents of monogamy (having only one spouse or mate at a time), for they represent the Chosen People's relationship to God as that of a monogamous couple, and they portray God as a jealous husband of one beloved wife. By the time of the Roman conquest, monogamy was the norm among the Jews.
The stories of the patriarchs also reflect the practice of endogamy: marriage within a specific group. The marriages of both Isaac and Jacob are held as exemplars, for they went well out of their way to marry kinswomen. Marrying outside of the tribe was seen to cause grief and turmoil, as, for example, in the story of Esau. When the Israelites moved into Canaan, however, some of them intermarried with the Canaanite women, and the Israelite kings, such as David and Solomon, sealed foreign alliances through intermarriage. The proscription of marriage with someone outside the tribe was relaxed during the times of exile, though the prophets blamed intermarriage, among other transgressions, for the calamities that befell the Chosen People. In general, men were prohibited from marrying their immediate blood relatives (mothers, daughters, sisters, granddaughters), as well as aunts, stepmothers, mothers-in-law, sisters-in-law, and stepdaughters (those who had legally become the equivalent of blood relatives). As a result of endogamy, a high degree of social cohesion was maintained.
Another custom followed by the ancient Hebrews was that of Levirate marriage, according to which a man is obligated to marry the childless widow of his deceased brother and to beget children on behalf of that brother. There were two purposes for Levirate marriage: to prevent the dead brother's name from passing away, and to ensure the proper disposition of the dead brother's property. In both cases, the firstborn son of the widow was considered the rightful heir of the dead brother's estate. A widow whose brother-in-law was unwilling to marry her could publicly humiliate him by loosening his sandal and spitting in his face.
While the wife was considered to be the property of the husband, she was to be valued and well cared for. Many wives, such as Deborah, one of the judges of the tribes, held important positions in the community, and most wives were responsible for managing the affairs of the household. A wife was supposed to be obedient, and infidelity on her part was a sin carrying the penalty of death. While the strictures were not identical for husbands, they were encouraged to be faithful as well and to respect and honor their wives.
Before a marriage could occur, a betrothal had to be arranged. A betrothal required the consent of the woman's (or girl's) parents and the payment of a fee to the man's family (a dowry). Sometimes the woman would also receive gifts from her father or relatives. Betrothals could occur either months or years before the nuptials would be celebrated; in many cases, parents would arrange betrothals for their children not long after their births. Once betrothed, a woman was considered to be a wife in everything but name, and she was required to behave as a wife should. The marriage and nuptial feast were mere formalities allowing the consummation of the union, though the celebration, held in the house of the bridegroom, might continue for many days.

In 1796, on the anniversary of the Constitution, Washington released his Farewell Address, one of the greatest documents of the American political tradition. Best remembered for its counsel concerning international affairs, it also gives Washington's advice concerning federal union and the Constitution, faction and political parties, the separation of powers, religion and morality, education and public credit.
During his lifetime, there was hardly a period when Washington was not in a position to bring his deep-seated ideas and the lessons of his experience to fruition, influencing not only events, but also, as his writings attest, the men around him. Four great themes of Washington's life—individual character, religion and religious liberty, the rule of law, and the defense of national independence—are particularly reflective of the objectives of his statesmanship and suggest why his example is a prime model for today's confused politics.
That Washington is known for his character is no accident. One of his earliest writings was an adolescent copybook record of 110 "Rules of Civility and Decent Behavior in Company and Conversation." Drawn from an early etiquette book, these social maxims taught lessons of good manners concerning everything from how to treat one's superiors ("In speaking to men of Quality do not lean nor look them full in the face"
) to how to moderate one's own behavior ("Let your recreations be manful not sinful"
Angara Diamond Framed Natural Emerald Engagement Ring in Yellow Gold Bn7Mgc
). Simple rules of decent conduct, he always held, formed the backbone of good character.
In his later letters, Washington constantly warned young correspondents of "the necessity of paying due attention to the moral virtues" and avoiding the "scenes of vice and dissipation" [5] often presented to youth. Because an early and proper education in both manners and morals would form the leading traits of one's life, he constantly urged the development of good habits and the unremitting practice of moral virtue. As he advised one correspondent:
To point out the importance of circumspection in your conduct, it may be proper to observe that a good moral character is the first essential of man, and that the habits contracted at your age are generally indelible, and your conduct here may stamp your character through life. It is therefore highly important that you should endeavor not only to be
Zales 1/20 CT Tw Diamond Inverted Flower Teardrop VintageStyle Pendant in Sterling Silver QKTFRkpX
Washington's own moral sense was the compass of both his private life and his public life, having become for him a "second" nature. The accumulation of the habits and dispositions, both good and bad, that one acquired over time defined one's character. In the 18th century, "character" was also shorthand for the persona for which one was known and was tied to one's public reputation. Washington knew that the best way to establish a good reputation was to be, in fact, a good man. "I hope I shall always possess firmness and virtue enough to maintain (what I consider the most enviable of all titles) the character of an honest man," he told Hamilton, "as well as prove (what I desire to be considered in reality) that I am."

We're all very big fans of the adventure genre here at Himalaya Studios, and we feel that Sierra's games really hit their peak in the early 90s. We're working hard to provide a nostalgic experience, reminiscent of that golden era of 2D Sierra adventures circa 1993-1994.
Mage's Initiation has a medieval / fantasy setting and it features multiple playable character classes, spell-casting, and an open-field magical combat system, complete with equippable items and monster loot drops!
In the quiet, provincial realm of Iginor, evil is stirring. Dangers abound on all sides: the forest, wastelands, and even the once-protective mountains look to the tiny town with glaring eyes. Into this, a young, would-be Mage sets forth to prove himself worthy of joining the ranks of his brethren. This is his journey. A Mage's Initiation.
You assume the role of D'arc, a sixteen-year-old Initiate who must complete a trio of tasks set by his Mage Masters. Journey through the medieval-styled realm of Iginor. Brave a goblin-infested forest. Navigate a vast lake to encounter an evil so pure, not even beauty can disguise it. Ascend to the peaks of Flyteria, a valley of winged warriors once dedicated to protection of the human town.
Succeed and D'arc shall take his place among his fellow Mages.

Turning to future climate projections, current climate models suggest that tropical Atlantic SSTs will warm dramatically during the 21st century, and that upper tropospheric temperatures will warm even more than SSTs. Furthermore, most of the CMIP3 models project increasing levels of vertical wind shear over parts of the western tropical Atlantic (see Vecchi and Soden 2007 ). Both the increased warming of the upper troposphere relative to the surface and the increased vertical wind shear are detrimental factors for hurricane development and intensification, while warmer SSTs favor development and intensification. To explore which effect of these effects might "win out", we can run experiments with our regional downscaling model.
Our regional model projects that Atlantic hurricane and tropical storms are substantially reduced in number , for the average 21st century climate change projected by current models, but have higher rainfall rates , particularly near the storm center. The average intensity of the storms that do occur increases by a few percent (Figure 6), in general agreement with previous studies using other relatively high resolution models, as well as with hurricane potential intensity theory (Emanuel 1987) .substantially reduced in number higher rainfall rates
Knutson and Tuleya (2004)
estimated the rough order of magnitude of the sensitivity of hurricanes to climate warming to be about 4% per deg C SST warming for maximum intensities and about 12% per deg C for near-storm (100 km radius) rainfall rates (see also Knutson and Tuleya (2008) abstract). Such sensitivity estimates have considerable uncertainty, as a subsequent assessment of multiple studies (Knutson et al. 2010) projected total increases by 2100 of about 2-11% for tropical cyclone intensity, and roughly 20% for near-storm rainfall rates. Our more recent late 21st century projections of hurricane activity continue to support the notion of increased intensity (~ 4%) and near-storm rainfall rates (~ 10 to 15%) for the Atlantic basin
Angara Tahitian Cultured Pearl and Diamond Cluster Stud Earrings yVZ1HrqM
) as well as for most other tropical cyclone basins (Knutson et al. 2015) . Wright et al. (2015) found model-projected increases in rainfall rates for U.S. landfalling tropical cyclones using this modeling system.
A review of existing studies, including the ones cited above, lead us to conclude that: it is likely that greenhouse warming will cause hurricanes in the coming century to be more intense globally and have higher rainfall rates than present-day hurricanes .it is likely that greenhouse warming will cause hurricanes in the coming century to be more intense globally and have higher rainfall rates than present-day hurricanes
Turning now to the question of the frequency of very intense hurricanes, the regional model of Knutson et al. (2008) has an important limitation in that it does not simulate such very intense hurricanes. For example, the maximum surface wind in the simulated hurricanes from that model is less than 50 m/s (which is borderline category 3 hurricane intensity). Furthermore, the idealized study of Knutson and Tuleya (2004) assumed the existence of hurricanes and then simulated how intense they would become. Thus, that study could not address the important question of the frequency of intense hurricanes.

Clifton Hall, 65, is the City Council�s newest member, appointed Oct. 2 to a seat that was vacant more than 18 months. The job is new to him, but he has eyed business growth as one area the city should focus on.
LAUREL HILL � Clifton Hall, 65, is the City Council�s newest member, appointed Oct. 2 to a seat that was vacant more than 18 months. The job is new to him, but he has eyed business growth as one area the city should focus on.
"I would like to see some more businesses in the area," he said. "Plus, many of the streets are in need of repair."
The city of Laurel Hill currently has 13 licensed businesses, according to city clerk Anita Miller.
The city of Crestview has 908 businesses listed that have been approved and renewed for business licenses, according to Loretta Scardina, the Hub City�s assistant city clerk.
Although he has never held political office, Hall said he has always wanted to help the city. Mayor Joan Smith convinced him to run for the position.
Hall said he learned about the job through Smith, whom he knew through her late husband, Harvell, who had business dealings with his company, according to Hall.
Hall�s experience in construction and roadwork lies in the company that he operates with his wife, Monique. In addition, he is credited with building several subdivisions, schools and businesses in Crestview.
However, after nearly 30 years of business, Hall said he and his wife have plans to sell.
"It just got to be too much for me," Hall said, adding the decision came after the economy worsened and jobs became scarce.
Hall was born and raised on a farm in New Harmony in Walton County. He said he became familiar with many people in the area from his days at Paxton School, from which he graduated in 1965.
Hall served in the U.S. Navy, as a firefighter on Eglin Air Force Base, before he entered the construction business.
Hall and his wife moved to Laurel Hill shortly after they married in 2007. Hall has two grown sons and Monique has a 17-year-old daughter, respectively, from previous marriages.
Though Hall�s city council role might have suddenly arisen from a life outside politics, he said he always felt civic responsibility.
"My wife and I have attended several meetings in the past," Hall said. "From what I have seen over the years, I knew I wanted to help out in some way."

ENC politicos weigh in on his decision
State political wags cast a hungry eye on the General Assembly session this year, expecting the cold war between top Republicans to turn into a shooting match in the 2014 U.S. Senate GOP primary.
But it was not to be.
Senate President Pro Tem Phil Berger, R-Rockingham and leader of the Senate GOP�s aggressive policy priorities, will not run for a chance at facing off against incumbent U.S. Sen. Kay Hagan, D-N.C.
He made his announcement Monday morning in a news release.
�For me, the essential questions have always been: Where can my efforts have the most positive and lasting impact on the lives of everyday North Carolinians?� Berger asked in the release. �Where can the most be done to increase economic opportunity, improve our public schools, and make North Carolina the best place in America to live, work and raise a family?
�Ultimately, the answer to those questions remains: in the state Senate, where I�m honored to represent the people of Guilford and Rockingham counties.�
Speaker of the House Thom Tillis, who appeared to move to the middle as Berger pushed a more conservative line during the session, earlier announced his intention to seek the GOP nomination.
Berger appeared to be moving closer to running, as he produced a 30-second television ad supporting the state voter ID law and criticizing Hagan�s opposition. He also was the center of a 15-minute biographical documentary.
Sen. Louis Pate, R-Wayne, said he�s happy Berger�s returning to the General Assembly.
�He would have made a great U.S. senator, but from a selfish standpoint, I�m kind of glad to see him staying where he is,� Pate said. �He�s been an excellent leader for us, and I think that he will continue to help us out in that position.�
Pate serves as the deputy president pro tem, and had a unique vantage point to watch Berger�s decision-making process.
�Let�s put it this way � I was not surprised when his announcement came out,� Pate said.
Sen. Harry Brown, R-Onslow, is the majority leader of the Senate GOP and part of the party leadership with Berger.
�For Sen. Berger � he�s a good friend of mine, and knowing him like I do, he just felt like he could do more for North Carolina (here) than he could going to Washington,� Brown said. �I feel like that�s why he probably decided not to run.�
Brown added, �He always does his homework. Normally, before he decides something, he has thought through it and I�m sure he put a lot of thought into this decision.�
Either way Berger would have decided, the decision gives a better view of the candidates Republican voters will choose from next year. Along with Tillis, tea party-affiliated physician Greg Brannon and Charlotte Rev. Mark Harris � a leader and state opposition to gay marriage � are running, along with Heather Grant of Wilkesboro.
Lenoir County Republican Party Chairwoman Michele Nix said the rank-and-file is seeing the primary process as fairly open at this time.
�I think we�re looking forward to taking Kay Hagan out in 2014,� Nix said.
As far as how she sees support shaping up, Nix added, �I think most people are waiting to see what happens as we get further along into it, and then being a party chair, I�m not allowed to endorse any candidates until after the primary.�
Craven County Republican Party Chairman Paul Hill said he believes the variations of conservatism presented by the announced candidates provide a good field for local voters.
�I think we�ve got a very diverse field, in the sense that from the (four) candidates announced, surely the most visible is Thom Tillis, but the other candidates have a wide range of the finer points of leaning more conservative or less conservative, or what have you,� Hill said. �So, I think there�s good range, and that generates a lot of grassroots types of interest.�

Acadia District (Nchuleft)
the Acadia District is the name given to the Region of land that is occupied by hundreds of former cities that amalgamated to form the Mega-City of Acadia or the Acadia District. The District is home to 25 different prefectures, and is both the capital and largest city of Laurentia. the Acadia District is the most populous metropolitan area on Kwandrivia boasting an astounding 351,434,607 citizens. It is the seat of Laurentia's President and it's government. the Acadia District it divided through the centre by the Destreds Sea, making it the perfect port city, hundreds of bridges run across the rivers connecting the two halves. Acadia South is the oldest region of the two halves, because of this most of the downtown cores building are Heritage Zones, as a result of this, the city has no distinct downtown skyline. Most of the tallest buildings in the Shoreline Core only reach to around 300 meters. The city was designed this way as to not shadow the older heritage buildings. History plays a vital role in the Acadia District. Old forts, castle and buildings can be found all throughout the core of the city.

Shoerline Core
The Laurentia Empire's downtown core is a city that chose to grow outwards instead of upwards. As a result, most of the skyscrapers in the core only rise to about 230 meters. Because of this, they are spread far and across the coastline of the Destreds Sea creating a rather large but low skyline. Along most of the Acadia Districts coast is a large man-made park with man made beaches and industrial piers and docks.

June 2004
The Early Treatment for HIV Act (ETHA) is proposed legislation that was originally introduced in the 106th and 107th Congresses and has been reintroduced in the 108th Congress.i,ii,iii ETHA, if passed, will provide states the option of expanding Medicaid coverage to individuals living with HIV. The proposed legislation is modeled after the Breast and Cervical Cancer Prevention Treatment (BCCPT) Act of 2000. The BCCPT Act amended Title XIX of the Social Security Act giving states the option of expanding Medicaid coverage to women who were found, through early intervention programs, to have breast or cervical cancer. Thus it provided these women with lifesaving medical care earlier.iv
ETHA, in a similar manner, would provide resources to pay for early intervention, treatment, and health care for people living with HIV. Currently, most individuals with HIV/AIDS who qualify for Medicaid do so because they are certified as disabled. Usually, this certification comes after an individual has received an AIDS diagnosis. Unfortunately, this means that many of these people are too sick to benefit from current therapies, since, according to the standard of care guidelines, they are past the recommended point to begin treatment. Successful passage of ETHA would allow more HIV positive people to receive treatment at earlier stages of the infection.
To understand ETHA, it is first important to review some of the basic components of Medicaid. Created in 1965 under Title XIX of the Social Security Act, Medicaid is an entitlement program that is jointly funded and administered by the federal government and the states. Unlike the spending for federal discretionary programs, such as the Ryan White CARE Act, federal Medicaid spending is not set in advance or on an annual basis by Congressional appropriations committees. There is no set limit on the amount of funding available each year to the Medicaid program, and there is no limit to the number of eligible beneficiaries. Actual Medicaid spending fluctuates with the cost of health care and with the number of people enrolled, which depends on a variety of factors including the poverty rate.
Medicaid covers three main groups of low-income Americans: the elderly, the disabled, and parents and children. Individuals who meet this and other eligibility criteria are entitled to have their respective states make payments on their behalf for certain covered services. State participation in Medicaid is voluntary; since 1982, however, all states have elected to participate. States are entitled to matching funds from the federal government for their costs in covering eligible individuals, and the federal government pays at least one half of Medicaid costs through a Federal Medicaid Assistance Percentage (FMAP). The FMAP is a matching rate paid to states to reimburse the Medicaid expenditures. By law, the FMAP cannot be lower than 50 percent or greater than 83 percent of a state?s Medicaid expenditures.v
All states provide Medicaid coverage to individuals who meet specific income and asset requirements. Typically, income requirements are below 133 percent of the federal poverty level and asset levels are capped at $2,000.vi States must offer a basic benefits package that is outlined by federal law and falls under broad, general guidelines. These guidelines stipulate that each state must establish its own eligibility requirements; determine the type, amount, duration, and scope of services; set the payment rate for services; and administer its own program.vii Although Medicaid benefits vary greatly from state to state, all state Medicaid programs cover some level of hospital, physician, nursing home, prescription drug, and long-term care services.
Medicaid is a vital source of healthcare for people with HIV. It is estimated that the program covers 55 percent of all people living with AIDS and 90 percent of all children living with AIDS who are receiving medical care.viii, ix In fiscal year 2003 (FY 03), the federal government spent $4.8 billion on AIDS care through the Medicaid program.x As the largest direct payer for medical care for people with HIV/AIDS, Medicaid is a critically important program. Yet despite its importance, the structure of the Medicaid program is often ill-suited to meet the needs of people living with HIV/AIDS. Further, not all poor Americans with HIV are currently eligible for health care under the Medicaid program, since income is only one test for Medicaid eligibility. Most people living with HIV/AIDS who qualify for Medicaid do so because, in applying for Supplemental Social Security (SSI), they have been determined as disabled. Qualifying for SSI payments requires individuals to meet the definition of disability as put forth by the Social Security Administration -- the federal agency that administers SSI. This definition states that an individual must be unable to engage in ?substantial gainful activity by reason of a medically determined physical or mental impairment expected to result in death, or that has lasted or can be expected to last for a continuous period of at least 12 months.?x Social Security pays only for total disability. No benefits are payable for partial disability or for short-term disability. For most people living with HIV, the Social Security disability definition means that they will not be eligible for services until their immune systems have declined to the point of an AIDS diagnosis and/or they are no longer able to work.
The requirement of the Social Security Administration to have a ?disability status? to qualify for Medicaid results in a dilemma for most people living with HIV. Current federal guidelines call for early access to medical care and treatment, including the use of combination antiretroviral therapy.xi These advancements in treatment along with the use of antiretroviral therapies come at a high price. Treatment with antiretroviral therapy costs between $10,000 and $12,000 annually, and the cost of monitoring patients and other services related to antiretroviral therapy rises to $18,500.xii Low-income individuals, many of whom are uninsured or underinsured, are making up greater portions of the epidemic. Yet they are simply unable to access and pay for these life-prolonging medications.
There have been many attempts, both administrative and legislative, to decrease the limitations of Medicaid for people living with HIV/AIDS. These attempts, however, have been generally unsuccessful.
Several administrative options have attempted to expand Medicaid coverage to people living with HIV but they have severe limitations. One of these options is the Section 1115 waiver of the Social Security Act.
Section 1115 permits the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services to authorize demonstration projects which are likely to assist in promoting the objectives of Medicaid through the use of waivers to parts of the Medicaid program.xiv These waivers allow states to create demonstration projects that explore new Medicaid policies and uses, including expanding eligibility to those who might not otherwise be entitled to Medicaid. In 1997, the Clinton Administration began to encourage states to explore the use of Section 1115 waivers to meet the needs of specific populations, including individuals living with HIV/AIDS, through a broadening of Medicaid eligibility. To date, ten states have applied for Section 1115 waivers to expand Medicaid coverage to people living with HIV who are not legally considered disabled, but otherwise meet state criteria for Medicaid eligibility. Only two of the nine states (Massachusetts and Maine) and the District of Columbia have received final approval, however.
Another administrative program exists through the Ticket to Work and Work Incentives Improvement Act of 1999.xv Title II of this legislation required the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services to establish demonstration projects (funded with $250 million over six years) under which states could provide benefits similar to Medicaid's to workers with potentially severe disabilities -- conditions that, as defined by the states, are reasonably expected to cause a level of disability that meets Social Security's requirements.
Title II of the Ticket to Work Act of 1999 also created two new state Medicaid options. These new options extended benefits to disabled workers who no longer qualify for Social Security benefits, due to improvements in their health status. These workers include: 1) any individual aged 16-64 who is working (or engaged in another defined work activity) at least 40 hours per month; and 2) any individual who ceases to be eligible for Medicaid because of health improvements identified during a disability review, but who nevertheless has severe and ongoing impairment. If a state exercises this option, working individuals with disabilities are no longer at risk for losing Medicaid benefits. This option is currently pending until the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) issues new regulations.
While there have been several options to expand Medicaid coverage for individuals living with HIV/AIDS, the optional nature of the Ticket to Work legislation and the budget neutrality requirements of 1115 waivers have ultimately left many low income individuals living with HIV/AIDS unable to qualify for health care under Medicaid. The result is that many of these low-income individuals do not have access to public or private health insurance and are increasingly relying on services provided through Ryan White CARE Act programs.
ETHA was introduced in an attempt to provide treatment earlier in the course of HIV disease progression for low income Americans living with HIV. This bill has been introduced in three successive Congresses and it has gathered increasing support. In the 108th Congress ETHA was introduced in the Senate by lead sponsors Senator Gordon Smith (R-OR) and Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-NY) and it currently has 19 additional co-sponsors (2 Republicans and 17 Democrats). In the House, the bill was introduced by lead sponsors Representative Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Representative James Leach (R-IA) and it currently has 89 additional co-sponsors (23 Republicans and 66 Democrats).
ETHA provides a more comprehensive approach to expanding Medicaid for people living with HIV than either the Ticket to Work Act or Section 1115 waivers. ETHA would allow non-disabled individuals access to Medicaid by creating another category of eligibility based solely on HIV status. While ETHA would not change the traditional asset limits, it would allow states to adopt higher income limits for persons with HIV. Ultimately, all low-income individuals who meet a state?s financial eligibility requirements would be eligible for Medicaid benefits from the moment they test positive for HIV.
One of the most important advantages of ETHA to people living with HIV is the optional prescription drug benefit that all states currently provide under Medicaid. Access to prescription drugs, specifically antiretroviral therapies, preserves the health of individuals living with HIV and reduces other health care costs associated with opportunistic infections and other co-morbidities. Further, expanding Medicaid through ETHA would transition a number of individuals to the Medicaid system, freeing up additional resources from other public programs such as the AIDS Drug Assistance Program (ADAP).
States will also benefit directly from ETHA because the legislation provides an enhanced FMAP for HIV/AIDS care. This means that states will receive a higher reimbursement from the federal government to provide HIV/AIDS related care and will expend comparatively fewer dollars on Medicaid than the rate for general disability status. Further, state Medicaid programs have the potential to purchase discounted antiretroviral drugs at lower cost than ADAP.
In 1990, Congress passed the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (OBRA), which attempted to limit the price state Medicaid programs would pay for prescription drugs. OBRA created a statutory rebate program on the drugs that Medicaid purchases, which is known as the Medicaid rebate. For generic drugs, the statutory discount is 11 percent off the average manufacturer?s price as reported to CMS. Name brand drugs (or innovator drugs) are purchased by the Medicaid program at a 15.1 percent discount.xvi
Ultimately, ETHA would eliminate some of the barriers that low-income, uninsured individuals living with HIV face in accessing health care and prescription drugs. By creating an additional Medicaid eligibility category, ETHA would offer substantial health care benefits at an affordable cost for people living with HIV. Further, ETHA could serve as an early intervention program by encouraging people to seek health care and by delaying the progression from HIV to AIDS. In this way, ETHA could improve the quality of life for individuals living with HIV and save on treatment costs.
Health care costs associated with HIV/AIDS are highest between the onset of full-blown AIDS and death. Under ETHA, Medicaid could provide treatment that would offset costs associated with non-drug services related to an AIDS diagnosis. Further cost savings beyond health care would also be possible under ETHA. Tax revenues would be maintained and SSI and disability insurance costs would be reduced since individuals could continue to work and disability status would be delayed.
If ETHA were to become law, it would have the potential to alleviate many of the challenges faced by low income individuals, especially achieving access to health care. However, concerns arise regarding the legislation?s limitations and its ability to have a positive impact on health care for individuals with HIV/AIDS. Further, implications arise with the cost of Medicaid expansion, availability of prescription drugs, and the national health care system.
In accessing health care through Medicaid, the greatest challenge for low-income individuals living with HIV is the meeting the program?s limited eligibility requirements. The only avenue of eligibility that is currently available for many HIV positive people -- no matter what their poverty level -- is total disability status, as determined by the Social Security Administration. This requirement, which forces people to wait until they are disabled by AIDS to get help, robs many low-income individuals of the benefits provided by advances in HIV treatment. These advances prevent the decline of the immune system and the infections that result from this decline. Medicaid has been and will continue to be a vital part of this nation?s ability to care for impoverished individuals with HIV/AIDS; however, long term strategies to improve the public health system must be incorporated into the plan.
Passage of ETHA must not supplant continued support of CARE Act programs. Instead, it should complement these services. By freeing up dollars from CARE Act programs, such as ADAP and Title III community services, ETHA would allow health care access for more people. Further, those receiving health care through ETHA, and subsequently through Medicaid, would continue to rely on CARE Act programs to meet other critical needs.
Using a published model that has served as the basis for assessing Medicaid expansion in several states at state option, researchers at the University of California, San Francisco have calculated that expanding Medicaid coverage to low-income individuals with HIV prior to disability would amount to an additional federal expense of $393 million over a five-year period. Yet such an expansion would extend coverage to 18,000 people by the end of the five-year period.xvii This expansion is quite cost-effective when compared to the $10,000 to $12,000 it costs annually to pay for antiretroviral therapy and the $34,000 it can cost annually to treat someone with advanced AIDS.xviii
The anticipated social and financial benefit of the expansion is further bolstered by the success of the Breast and Cervical Cancer Prevention Treatment Act of 2000, which has, to date, been implemented by 48 states plus the District of Columbia. The widespread acceptance and implementation of the BCCPT Act shows that states are interested in expanding Medicaid coverage beyond the current federal mandate so that low-income individuals dealing with life-threatening illnesses can receive support. State-level demonstration projects have provided some relief to the low-income, HIV positive population, but the time limits imposed on these projects and budget constraints have severely limited their efficacy. ETHA?s simplicity and permanency provide the best solution.
