Awaiting New Medicaid Managed Care Rules: Key Issues to Watch
More than half of all Medicaid beneficiaries now receive their services in risk-based managed care plans, and states' use of managed care is expanding.

Safety-Net Emergency Departments: A Look at Current Experiences and Challenges
Safety-net hospital emergency departments (EDs) are an important part of our health care system, especially, but not only, for the uninsured and others with low income. With multiple major changes unfolding in our system today, including the development of new models of health care delivery, payment reforms, expanded insurance coverage, and increasing demand for primary care access, safety-net EDs are a sort of crucible in which these shifts and transitions can be seen playing out. To understand more about their current experiences and challenges as the Affordable Care Act (ACA) begins to takes hold, we conducted interviews with ED directors in a convenience sample of 15 safety-net hospitals around the country in June and July 2014.Issue Brief Read More

Well, at least I'll be able to say, "There was that time Art City was on the radio -- once."

The frame is specially designed for men. Sporting clear lines, New School Cool meets traditional quality. Eyewear is in. Full rim is extremely popular, because you feel that you get more eyeglass for your money. It is not just about their resilience, but also about the visibility of material and design, which are of the highest quality. The square shape gives round faces a concise form and makes them appear more striking. It sets a highlight in the appearance, drawing attention to itself. Plastic frames like these combine durability and are comfortable to wear. The PO3113S is a very snug fit on the ears and nose. Brown is the perfect alternative for those who find black too high in contrast. Brown flatters the face unobtrusively. The fact that the colour grey matches everything, also applies to sunglass lenses. They suit everything in your wardrobe and never go out of fashion. This brand of sunglasses, of course, also provides your eyes with optimum UV400 protection.

Business Intelligence Foundation Suite
Many organisations today use a collection of Business Intelligence (BI) tools and applications to allow experts to gather information from a variety of sources, analyse it, and share it with managers and staff. However, ever-increasing business dynamics and increased competition means businesses now require a much higher level of value from their BI investments. BI must now help drive profitable growth, change, and many other operational and financial performance goals. Not only does BI need to deliver significant Return on Investment (ROI), but it also needs to be deployed in a manner that minimises Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). Read more.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) is intended to provide an understanding of the business environment, results of operations, and financial condition of PGE. MD&A should be read in conjunction with the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this report, as well as the consolidated financial statements and disclosures in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, and other periodic and current reports filed with the SEC.
Operating Activities - PGE is a vertically integrated electric utility engaged in the generation, transmission, distribution, and retail sale of electricity, as well as the wholesale purchase and sale of electricity and natural gas. The Company generates revenues and cash flows primarily from the sale and distribution of electricity to customers in its service territory.
The impact of seasonal weather conditions on demand for electricity can cause the Company's revenues and income from operations to fluctuate from period to period. PGE is a winter-peaking utility that typically experiences its highest retail energy sales during the winter heating season, although a slightly lower peak occurs in the summer that generally results from air conditioning demand. Price changes and customer usage patterns, which can be affected by the economy, also have an effect on revenues while the availability and price of purchased power and fuel can affect income from operations.
Customers and Demand - Retail energy deliveries for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 decreased approximately one-half of one percent from the comparable period of 2011 largely as a result of the impact of relatively warmer weather during the heating season early in 2012 reducing residential customer demand, and the loss of demand from one large paper customer in early 2011. The decline was partially offset by an increase in the average number of total retail customers served.
The following table indicates the average number of retail customers, including
those direct access customers who chose to purchase their energy from an
Electricity Service Supplier (ESS), and energy deliveries, by customer class,
for the periods indicated:
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 2011 Average Average % Increase Number of Retail Energy Number of Retail Energy /(Decrease)in Energy Customers Deliveries * Customers Deliveries * Deliveries Residential 722,884 5,506 719,809 5,604 (1.7 )% Commercial 103,798 5,566 102,911 5,560 0.1 Industrial 261 3,180 255 3,156 0.8 Total 826,943 14,252 822,975 14,320 (0.5 )
On a weather adjusted basis, total retail energy deliveries for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 increased approximately one-half of one percent compared to the same period of 2011. PGE expects the increase in total retail energy deliveries on a weather adjusted basis for the year ending December 31, 2012 to approximate the increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, after allowing for energy efficiency and conservation efforts.
Power Operations - To meet the energy needs of its retail customers, the Company utilizes a combination of its own generating resources and wholesale market transactions. Based on numerous factors, including plant availability, customer demand, river flows, wind conditions, and current wholesale prices, PGE makes economic dispatch decisions continuously in an effort to obtain reasonably-priced power for its retail customers. In addition, PGE's thermal generating plants require varying levels of annual maintenance, during which the respective plant is unavailable to provide power. As a result, the amount of power generated and purchased in the wholesale market to meet the Company's retail load requirement can vary from period to period.
During the second quarters of 2012 and 2011, such annual maintenance was performed, with more extensive, planned service maintenance completed in 2011 compared to 2012. The work performed during 2011 included planned emissions control retrofits at Boardman and the replacement of the cooling tower structure and upgrading of the gas turbine and exhaust system components at Coyote Springs. Availability of the plants PGE operates approximated 93% and 92%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, with the availability of Colstrip, which PGE does not operate, approximating 92% and 80%, for the same periods, respectively.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company's generating plants provided approximately 47% of its retail load requirement, compared with 44% in the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The increase in the relative volume of power generated to meet the Company's retail load requirement was primarily due to the economic displacement of a greater amount of thermal generation by lower cost purchased power during 2011.
Energy received from PGE-owned hydroelectric plants and under contracts from mid-Columbia hydroelectric projects decreased 30% in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared with the same period of 2011. These resources provided approximately 20% of the Company's retail load requirement for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared with 28% for the same period of 2011. Through September, energy received from these sources exceeded projections included in the Company's Annual Power Cost Update Tariff (AUT) by approximately 12% during 2012, compared with 17% during the comparable period of 2011. Such projections, which are finalized with the OPUC in November each year, establish the power cost component of retail prices for the following calendar year and are based, in part, on average regional hydro conditions. Any excess in hydro generation from that projected in the AUT generally displaces power from higher cost sources, while any shortfall is generally replaced with power from higher cost sources. Energy from hydro resources is expected to be
approximately 9% above projections included in the AUT for 2012.
Energy expected to be received from PGE-owned wind generating resources (Biglow Canyon) is projected annually in the AUT and is based on wind studies completed in connection with the permitting of the wind farm. Any excess in wind generation from that projected in the AUT generally displaces power from higher cost sources, while any shortfall is generally replaced with power from higher cost sources. Energy received from Biglow Canyon fell short of that projected in PGE's AUT by 17% and 11%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and provided approximately 7% of the Company's retail load requirement for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011.
Pursuant to the Company's power cost adjustment mechanism (PCAM), customer prices can be adjusted to reflect a portion of the difference between each year's forecasted net variable power costs (NVPC) included in customer prices (baseline NVPC) and actual NVPC for the year. To the extent actual NVPC is above or below the deadband, the PCAM provides for 90% of the variance to be collected from or refunded to customers, respectively, subject to a regulated earnings test. Pursuant to the regulated earnings test, a refund will occur only to the extent that it results in PGE's actual regulated return on equity (ROE) for that year being no less than 1% above the Company's latest authorized ROE of 10%, while a collection will occur only to the extent that it results in PGE's actual regulated ROE for that year being no greater than 1% below the Company's authorized ROE. Any estimated refund to customers pursuant to the PCAM is recorded as a reduction in Revenues in the Company's statements of income, while any estimated collection from customers is recorded as a reduction in Purchased power and fuel expense. For 2012 and 2011, the deadband range is from $15 million below to $30 million above baseline NVPC.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, actual NVPC was approximately $14 million below baseline NVPC due to strong power supply operations and above average hydro generation, partially offset by lower than expected wind generation. Based on forecast data, NVPC for the year ending December 31, 2012 is currently estimated to be below the baseline NVPC, but within the deadband range; accordingly, no estimated refund to customers is expected for 2012.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, actual NVPC was approximately $36 million below baseline NVPC, which is $21 million below the lower deadband threshold, with PGE recording an estimated refund to customers in the amount of $17 million during the period. Upon application of the regulated earnings test, the estimated refund to customers was reduced to $10 million as of December 31, 2011.
Capital Requirements and Financing - PGE's capital requirements for 2012 are related primarily to ongoing expenditures for the upgrade, replacement, and expansion of transmission, distribution, and generation infrastructure, as well as technology enhancements and expenditures related to hydro licensing and construction. Capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $328 million in 2012, of which $218 million was incurred through September 30, 2012. For further information, see the Capital Requirements section of Liquidity and Capital Resources in this Item 2.
For 2012, the Company expects to meet capital requirements with cash from ongoing operations, with no issuances of long-term debt or equity. In subsequent years, the Company expects to fund its capital requirements with a combination of cash from operations and funds from the capital markets, depending on the outcome of the Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) process outlined below, PGE's liquidity needs, and market conditions. The Company also expects that the borrowing capacity under its credit facilities will continue to be available to manage working capital requirements for the foreseeable future. For further information, see the Debt and Equity Financings section of Liquidity and Capital Resources in this Item 2.
PGE's 2009 IRP, acknowledged by the OPUC in November 2010 and updated in November 2011, includes the Company's strategy for acquiring new resources over the next several years and a 20-year strategy outlining long-term expectations for resource needs and portfolio management. To meet projected energy requirements, the IRP includes energy efficiency measures, additional renewable resources, new transmission capability, new generation, and improvements to existing generating plants. The Company expects to file with the OPUC another update to the
IRP by the end of November 2012.
In June 2012, in accordance with the IRP and pursuant to the OPUC's competitive bidding guidelines, the Company issued a request for proposals (RFP) for additional resources seeking a combination of capacity and energy resources. The RFP seeks approximately:
• 300 to 500 MW of base load energy resources;
• 200 MW of year-round flexible and peaking resources;
• 200 MW of bi-seasonal (winter and summer) peaking supply; and
• 150 MW of winter-only peaking supply.
This RFP closed to proposals in August 2012, with PGE receiving proposals consisting of a mix of projects to be sold to the Company pursuant to asset purchase agreements and projects that would sell power to the Company under long-term power purchase agreements. PGE, with the oversight of an independent evaluator, is in the process of evaluating the bids, which include Company benchmark proposals. A final short list of projects is expected by the end of 2012. Negotiations with final short listed bidders are expected to start in late 2012 or early 2013. The flexible and peaking resources are expected to be available in the 2013 to 2015 time frame and the base load energy resources expected to be available in the 2014 to 2017 time frame.
A second RFP, which was issued in October 2012, is seeking approximately 100 MWa of renewable resources in order to help meet PGE's 2015 requirements under Oregon's Renewable Portfolio Standard. Sources proposed must meet a minimum size of at least 10 MW and can represent a variety of technologies including wind, geothermal, biomass, biogas, solar, and hydroelectric power. PGE may acquire a single resource or a mix of resources to achieve the total desired renewable energy target. The Company submitted a benchmark proposal at the end of October and all other proposals are due by November 13, 2012. PGE expects to identify an initial short list of projects by January 2013, with a final short list expected in early February 2013. The renewable resources are anticipated to be in service in the 2013 to 2017 time frame.
The IRP includes a proposal for an approximately 215-mile, 500 kV transmission line referred to as the Cascade Crossing Transmission Project, or Cascade Crossing, that would help meet future electricity demand and improve regional grid reliability. The project would transmit power from new and existing energy resources in northeastern Oregon to the Company's service territory. PGE continues to work with other stakeholders in the region in planning the project and is actively engaged in the federal, state, and tribal permitting processes. Subject to obtaining all necessary approvals, the in-service date is not expected before 2017.
For additional information, see the Capital Requirements section of Liquidity and Capital Resources in this Item 2.
Legal, Regulatory, and Environmental Matters - PGE is a party to certain proceedings, the ultimate outcome of which may have a material impact on the results of operations and cash flows in future reporting periods. Such proceedings include, but are not limited to, the following matters:
• Challenges to recovery of the Company's investment in its closed Trojan plant;
• Claims for refunds related to wholesale energy sales during 2000 - 2001 in the Pacific Northwest; and
• An investigation of environmental matters regarding Portland Harbor.
For additional information regarding the above and other matters, see Note 7, Contingencies, in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
The following discussion highlights certain regulatory items that have impacted the Company's revenues, results of operations, or cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011 or affected retail customer prices, as authorized by the OPUC. In some cases, the Company
deferred the related expenses or benefits as regulatory assets or liabilities, respectively, for later amortization and inclusion in customer prices, pending OPUC review and authorization.
• Boardman Operating Life Adjustment - In PGE's 2011 General Rate Case, the OPUC approved a tariff that provides a mechanism for future consideration of customer price changes related to the recovery of the Company's remaining investment in the Boardman generating plant over a shortened operating life. Pursuant to the tariff, the OPUC approved recovery of increased depreciation expense reflecting a change in the retirement date of Boardman from 2040 to 2020, with new prices effective July 1, 2011, which provided incremental revenues for the last six months of 2011 of $7 million. In 2012, the annual revenue requirement for the full year is expected to be $13 million.
• Power Costs - Pursuant to the AUT process, PGE files annually an estimate of power costs for the following year. In November 2011, the OPUC issued an order on the 2012 AUT resulting in an estimated 1% decrease in customer prices as a result of expected lower power costs. The new prices became effective January 1, 2012 and are expected to result in a decline of approximately $22 million in annual revenues compared to 2011.
The Company submitted an updated forecast of 2013 power costs to the OPUC in October 2012. Based on the latest estimate, which will be updated and finalized in November 2012, power costs for 2013 are expected to be lower than 2012, with a corresponding decrease in customer prices between 1% and 2% becoming effective January 1, 2013. The resulting annual revenue requirement is expected to decrease by approximately $27 million from 2012.
On July 1, 2012, the Company submitted to the OPUC the results of its PCAM for 2011 based on an updated regulated earnings test, which resulted in a revised refund to customers of approximately $6 million. On October 24, 2012, the OPUC issued an order approving the refund, with the impact to customer prices effective January 1, 2013. For further information, see Power Operations, within the Operating Activities section of this Overview, above.
• Renewable Resource Costs - Pursuant to a renewable adjustment clause mechanism (RAC), PGE can recover in customer prices prudently incurred costs of renewable resources that are expected to be placed in service in the current year. The Company may submit a filing to the OPUC by April 1st each year, with prices expected to become effective January 1st of the following year.
In March 2012, PGE submitted a filing for the installation of a small solar facility, which requested a nominal credit to customer prices for a one-year period beginning January 1, 2013, resulting from the gain on the sale and lease-back transaction directly related to the project.
The Company collected $22 million under the RAC as a result of a tariff the OPUC had previously approved for recovery over a one-year period that ended December 31, 2011 for eligible deferred costs and a return on the Company's investment related to Biglow Canyon Phase III and a residual balance from the previous deferral of Biglow Canyon Phase II.
• Decoupling - The decoupling mechanism is intended to provide for recovery of margin lost as a result of a reduction in electricity sales attributable to energy efficiency and conservation efforts by residential and certain commercial customers. The mechanism provides for customer collection (or refund) if weather adjusted use per customer is less (or more) than the levels approved in the Company's most recent general rate case.
• For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company has recorded an estimated collection of $1 million. Any estimated refund to, or collection from, customers for the 2012 year would begin June 1, 2013.
• During 2011, PGE recorded an estimated refund of $2 million that is being provided to customers
over a one year period that began June 1, 2012, as weather adjusted use per customer was greater than levels projected in the 2011 General Rate Case.
• For 2010, the Company recorded an estimated collection of $8 million, as weather adjusted use per customer was less than levels included in the 2009 General Rate Case. After review, the OPUC approved collections from customers over a one-year period that ended May 31, 2012.
• Refund of tax credits - In 2011, PGE provided credits to customers for accumulated tax credits related to the Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI) located at the Trojan site. The discontinuance of the customer credits on January 1, 2012 had the effect of increasing the Company's annual revenues by approximately $18 million.

Guys & Girls:
Everyone has their own look, and other than usually first years, everyone just does what they want. You're in college and dressing to the most recent fashion couldn't be cared less about.
Guys & Girls:
two words: cornell goggles. the attractiveness of people here is definitely lower than other schools
Guys & Girls:
Its a bubble whose dating scene I would NOT want to be part of. Ever. People know each other's business and the small school size makes it easier for STDs to spread. The Block plan also makes it difficult to be in a functional relationship.
Guys & Girls:
I personally believe there aren't a lot of attractive single, guys on campus, but that's just me. A lot of people are in serious on-campus relationships, while many others are in long-distance relationships with people back home. The type of students at Cornell varies a lot, which explains why we have so many student orgs. For example, some kids will cosplay just for the heck of it, while some people treat the sidewalks like a red carpet. It's easy to find a niche on campus.
Guys & Girls:
Remember before you dive in the dating pool is very shallow.
{{review.SectionLabel}} at {{review.EntityName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
You won't find many Abercrombie underwear models wandering Cornell's campus. In fact, the running joke is that when students come to campus, they put on "Cornell Goggles" and their standards drop. But it's really not that bad.
There are plenty of attractive people of either sex, whether your taste runs to preps or jocks or pirates. The party scene results in its share of hookups, while more sober social interactions often spark long-term relationships. Changing courses each month presents a unique opportunity to meet new people or potential love interests. Cornell is generally more sexually promiscuous than it is reserved, but only slightly. Lax policies regarding visitors and overnight guests in residence halls leave it up to the students to make decisions regarding where they sleep and with whom.

Best Uses
This two-toned fringe is a great product. It was very easy to use and made our project very attractive. I hope that more color combinations will be developed in the future. It would be great to have orange and white, maroon/burgundy and white, etc. I will certainly be using this product in the future.
Best Uses
Was used this product on a Christmas Parade float. The teens felt like there was too much white.
