Celebrate the season with flavorful fillings November is infamous for stuffing — whether we’re fluffing our nest in anticipation of winter or filling our bellies with a harvest of savory flavors. Beef isn’t typically associated with stuffing, but Certified Angus Beef ® brand Chef Michael Ollier has created several rich and tasty beef dishes that will have you stuffing steak – and yourself – in no time. Flank Steak Roulade features an economical cut spread with a mixture of walnuts, parmesan cheese, garlic and herbs, sun-dried tomatoes and arugula. It’s then rolled and tied with butcher twine before roasting in the oven. Roulade makes for an elegant presentation and the flavors of this roasted beef are sure to wow the taste buds of everyone at your table. Yes, they’ll stuff themselves with seconds! Hit harvest meals out of the park with Short Rib Stuffed Squash. Savory and satisfying, it’s the ideal solution for pot roast leftovers. Just add vegetables and rice to beef, then stuff into seasonal acorn squash. Garam masala curry gives the dish a distinctly pleasing flavor. Garam Masala is a Northern Indian-style curry powder based not on turmeric – as are other curry powders, but on a mixture of cardamom, coriander and black pepper. Add Italian flair to any autumn meal with Stuffed Manicotti and Red Pepper Sauce. A blend of parmesan, Asiago and mozzarella cheeses add just the right balance to this beefy, pepper- and tomato-based dish. Flank Steak Roulade Ingredients 2 to 2 1/2 pound Certified Angus Beef ® flank steak 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar 8 ounces chopped walnuts, about 1 3/4 cups 5 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese 1 tablespoon minced garlic (2 cloves) 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes 2 teaspoons coarse kosher salt -more- -2-

ANTICIPATED ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL IMPACTS AND MITIGATION Table 1 Environmental and Social Aspects, Potential Impacts and Mitigation Measures for Geothermal Exploration Activities Environmental and Social Aspects and Issues Potential Impacts Mitigation Measures Natural habitats, including critical habitats Aquatic and terrestrial habitats and species Forest resource users Water users Aesthetics and landscapes Land clearance for well pads, roads, pipelines and supporting infrastructure will cause direct damage or destruction to natural habitats. Avoid, or otherwise minimize, development in sensitive areas (forest habitats, landscapes, scenic areas etc.) Remove and decommission infrastructure after exploration and rehabilitate areas quickly, where necessary to natural ground conditions and replant with native species or commercial species (depending on land use). Prepare a mitigation plan for land use following the exploration activities, together with communities and local authorities to avoid indiscriminate development and potential conflict. Roads, pipelines and drilling pads can create intrusions into natural and scenic landscapes. Indirect impacts from induced development (agriculture, poaching, land clearances, land disputes) into forested areas and protected natural areas. Water abstractions and discharges to water of treated wastewater / drilling fluids and other wastes cause direct or indirect impacts on habitats and species. Pollution of water or water abstractions affects other water users. Possible overflow or failure of ponds. Separate different waste streams and treat via ponds, dosing, cooling and other methods before discharge to land or water bodies. Avoid overexploitation of freshwater resources – find multiple sources, take from streams with high flow rate, time drilling for the rainy season, use storage dams or ponds, take no more than 1/3 of the seasonal low flow from surface water features. Identify other water uses such as farm irrigation and ensure sustainable abstraction rates that do not interfere with their water use, fishing etc. Discharge to reinjection wells wherever possible. Reuse of drilling fluids. Use septic tanks to treat domestic waste water before discharge to land. Empty septic tanks regularly and dispose sludge to landfill. Resource planning and management, in conjunction with authorities & communities to locate storage ponds away from sensitive areas. Careful design of ponds in accordance with OP4.36 Safety of Dams and monitoring of pond structures for signs of failure.

Press release – GEW releases ultra-wide UV video GEW has released a new video to illustrate how wide-web converters can benefit from GEW’s fully air-cooled NUVA2 UV systems. The NUVA2 lamphead is available in widths of up to 2.50m and boasts particularly fast switch-on and cool-down cycles achieving considerable electricity and time savings. It addresses the specific requirements of converters who need to coat substrates in extreme widths. Likora GmbH in Germany upgraded the final varnishing station on one of their gravure printing lines with the new UV-curing system replacing an older system. To this purpose they integrated three GEW-made NUVA2 UV lampheads with RHINO power supply. The three UV lampheads are positioned vertically one after the other so as to achieve the maximum UV-curing effect. The UV system is mounted in a custom designed aluminium frame that integrates a retractable cooling panel and water-cooled quartz window to prevent the heat transfer onto the substrate. The configuration is now able to print and varnish substrates up to 2350mm wide with speeds up to 120m/min and mainly produces finish foils intended for wrapping and laminating on wood-based materials. – Watch the video on the GEW YouTube channel: Likora upgrade gravure press with GEW UV system <https://youtu.be/kBCN8ENdD-M> About GEW… GEW (EC) Limited is a world-leading manufacturer of robust, energy-efficient UV curing systems for printing and coating applications.

harm before a temporary restraining order can be issued. The abuse must have been committed by: A spouse, former spouse, parent, child, or a person related by blood or adoption to you. A person currently or formerly residing in a place of abode with you. A person with whom you have a child in common. A person who provides in home or community care for you. A person with whom you have or had a dating relationship. WHAT CAN THE COURT ORDER? The Court can require the abuser to: Refrain from committing any further acts of domestic abuse against the victim Avoid the victim’s residence and any location temporarily occupied by the victim. Avoid contacting or causing any other person (other than an attorney or law enforcement officer) to contact the victim. HOW DOES THE ACTION GET STARTED? The victim of the domestic abuse must file a petition, or a guardian of an incompetent individual may file it. A petition is filed in the Circuit Court of the county where the petitioner resides, the respondent resides or where the incident(s) of abuse occurred. The person who is asking the court for assistance is the “petitioner.” The “respondent” is the person against whom the petition is brought. IS THERE A FEE? No. There is no filing fee to start an action. WHERE DO I GET THE FORMS? The forms are available at or in the Clerk of Court’s office. When completed the forms are filed with the Clerk of Courts. WHAT ABOUT SERVICE OF THE DOCUMENTS? The documents that are filed must be served on the respondent. Someone other than the petitioner must do service. Generally, the sheriff will serve the documents, but a private process server can also do it. The sheriff cannot charge for service, but a private process server would charge the petitioner a fee. WHAT IS AN “AFFIDAVIT OF SERVICE?” The individual who serves the papers must provide an affidavit of service for filing with the court. The affidavit of service is a form prepared and signed under oath by the person who serves the papers on the respondent. The affidavit must recite how, when, where, and on whom service was made. This form must be filed with the court before the hearing or made available to the court at the hearing. The court requires proof that the respondent knows of the restraining order and the hearing.

Every activity should replicate as much of the game as possible, from the warm up to the final activity. In selecting an activity, the following criteria should be considered and assessed, in conjunction with the level of the players: Distance: Is the distance between players realistic to the game? Movement: Is the movement of the players similar to what is desirable in the game, especially movement off the ball? Space: Is the space allocated realistic to the demands of the game? Area: Can we do the activity in the appropriate area of the field? Functional: Is the technique chosen compatible with the functional demands in that particular area of the field? Repetitions: Does the organization lend itself to many repetitions for each player? Finishing: Can we add a goal and incorporate shooting/finishing to the activity? Ability: Finally, and most importantly, are the players able to handle the complexity of the activity? “If the player doesn’t have the freedom to think, he doesn’t have the ability to create.” Jorge Sampaoli, Sevilla’s coach training methodology. As an example of how these considerations can affect practice planning, let’s look at variations of warm up passing drills for U-10’s and evaluate them against the above criteria. Activity 1: Line Drill
Shielding the ball from an opponent Using deception to turn a defender Passing Technically sound short push passes with both feet Driven passes on ground with laces of both feet Lofted passes Chipped passes Knowing when to play to feet versus space Changing the point of attack Understanding how to make diagonal passes Passing in the final third (deception/disguise) Simple passing patterns Combination play Penetrating passes Building out of the back as a defensive group (Gk, 4,5,2,3, & 6) Receiving Receiving ball with inside of foot using the soccer hop to cushion ball and set up the pass.

Text: GFIP Eligibility Requirements Must have flood damage caused by a Presidentially-declared disaster Reside in a SFHA Be referred for IHP Text: Not every applicant may be considered for the GFIP, only those with flood insurable losses from a declared disaster event VOICE OVER: To be eligible for the GFIP, disaster survivors must have flood damage that was caused by a Presidentially-declared major disaster, reside in a Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA), and be referred for IHP. A special flood hazard area is an area that is at high-risk for flooding and where flood insurance is required as a condition of receiving disaster assistance through the IHP. Not every applicant may be considered for the GFIP, only those with flood insurable losses from a declared disaster event. Text: GFIP Does Not Apply Flooding not part of declaration Flooding is part of declaration but Applicant has no flood damage Damaged items cannot be insured by NFIP VOICE OVER: Disaster survivors living outside special flood hazard areas are not eligible for the GFIP nor can they purchase a GFIP. If they choose to obtain flood insurance, they may be able to purchase it individually through a private insurer of their choosing. The GFIP does not apply when: flooding is not part of the disaster declaration; flooding is a part of the declaration, but an applicant has no flood damage to their home; or an applicant has damage to items that cannot be insured by the NFIP. [TITLE SCREEN] Implementation of the GFIP Text: Group Flood Insurance Policy 3 year term Begins 60 days after disaster declaration date VOICE OVER: The term of the GFIP is three years and begins after a sixty-day waiting period from the disaster declaration date.
What is Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 8? From the citation listed on page 27 of the GFO, TRL 8 is: Table 1 Technology Readiness Levels* Relative Level of Technology Development Technology Readiness Level TRL Definition Description System Commissioning TRL 8 Actual system completed and qualified through test and demonstration Technology has been proven to work in its final form and under expected conditions. In almost all cases, this TRL represents the end of true system development. Examples include developmental testing and evaluation of the system with real waste in hot commissioning. *US DOE Technology Readiness Assessment (TRA)/Technology Maturation Plan (TMP) Process Guide, . What does the Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 8 mean and how is it going to be used for scoring? The proposed project must meet the EPIC criteria for Technology Demonstration and Deployment. The TRL 8 definition (see question 42 above) is used to provide a common guide to applicants on the level of maturity of proposed technologies for demonstration. Ultimately, the proposed project should provide a demonstration which has commercial viability after the grant term is completed, and which has a likelihood of being replicated in the future. The applications will be evaluated based on the scoring criteria set forth in this GFO. Regarding pre-commercial, in the definition provided in the GFO, you don’t want items that are at scale or are sufficiently larger scale yet in the technical discussion of the RFP, you are talking about needing a tremendous amount of data to support the benefits. Can you provide clarification on what you are looking for regarding pre-commercial?
Responding to these concerns, The Global Fund has developed a sustainability, transition, and co-financing policy. This policy was approved by the Board at the 35th Board Meeting on 26-27 April 2016 in Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire. See Figure for a high-level overview of the new policy.

Table 3: Strategic objective 3 – Promote and protect human rights and gender equality Sub-objective 3a: Scale-up programs to support women and girls, including programs to advance sexual and reproductive health, and rights. Progress: Thirteen focus countries have been selected for AGYW (adolescent girls and young women) scale-up. Under the CRG Strategic Initiative, TA requests to increase quality of programming and performance frameworks have been received from about half of the countries. Sub-objective 3c: Introduce and scale-up programs that remove human rights barriers to accessing HIV, TB and malaria services. Progress: Standardized tools have been developed to conduct human rights baseline studies in 20 countries. Desk reviews for eight countries (Ghana, Benin, Mozambique, Kyrgyzstan, Ukraine, Indonesia, Sénégal and Cameroon) were scheduled to be submitted by mid-March. Four country missions are planned for the second quarter of 2017. Sub-objective 3e: Support meaningful engagement of Key and Vulnerable Populations and networks in Global Fund–related processes. Progress: The (CALC) has been engaged to provide support on the use of HIV key population implementation tools in program design and planning. In-country TORs were developed for the sex worker and MSM implementation tools. A global meeting on implementation tools was held. The Global Coalition of TB Activists and some malaria consortiums were engaged to provide support to, and strengthen networking and mobilization of, TB- and malaria-affected communities to enable their meaningful engagement in country dialogues. Work plans were developed and regional consultations held on modules for analyzing malaria-related gender and human rights barriers. A regional meeting on malaria was held and support was provided for country dialogues in the Greater Mekong region. Cross-cutting initiatives for Strategic Objective 3 Progress: Stakeholders met in late 2016 to discuss strategy for the AGYW Meaningful Engagement Fund, part of the CRG Strategic Initiative. A roadmap for AGYW engagement in 13 countries in Eastern and Southern Africa is being finalized. An independent review on, and recommendations for, meaningful community engagement during grant-making and grant implementation have been finalized. Strategy Implementation Reporting, Document GF-B37-19, should be available shortly at . _________________________________
Supply chain National quantification and forecasting for HIV drugs should be more systematic, and should include regular meetings with all stakeholders, the OIG stated. “This is necessary to avoid emergency orders of antiretroviral drugs, as noted in 2017, and to include supplies from partners like UNICEF.” Furthermore, the OIG said, quantification and inventory management should include all levels, not just the central warehouses, to avoid the risk of health commodity over-stocking or over-budgeting. (We have used illustrations to summarize some of the OIG’s findings in this area:) The automated inventory and Logistics Management Information System (LMIS), known as OSPSanté, presents a significant opportunity to address many of the issues noted above, the OIG observed. While inventory data for most malaria and some HIV commodities is already available in this system, it is not yet being aggregated into national inventory positions. “Nor is it being analyzed for effective decision-making,” the OIG stated. “This could help prevent stock-outs or over-stocking.” Previously identified issues

The OIG stated that a decline government funding has created a heavy dependence on donors for the delivery of programs. There are challenges concerning the government’s coordination of donor activities, resulting in gaps and potential duplication of activities, it added. Finally, although the availability of routine and survey data for decision making has improved, the OIG said, inaccurate recording and reporting compromise its reliability. Table 2 lists the three areas assessed in the audit, and the OIG’s ratings and summary comments for each area. Table 2: Bangladesh audit findings at-a-glance AREA 1: Effectiveness of the implementation arrangements to ensure efficient and sustainable achievement of grant objectives Rating: Partially effective OIG comments: The implementation arrangements have supported the consistent achievement of the agreed programmatic performance targets. However, challenges in TB case detection, routine monitoring of patients and potential inefficiencies need to be addressed. AREA 2: Effectiveness and efficiency of the procurement and supply chain to ensure availability of quality assured medicines and health commodities to patients Rating: Partially effective OIG comments: The Secretariat instituted several measures to ensure Global Fund procured medicines are effectively stored and distributed. Those measures mitigated stock-outs at health facilities but underlying systemic weaknesses continue to impact supply chain arrangements under the TB grants. AREA 3: Design of the internal financial controls on incentive payments and apportionment of costs to Global Fund grants Rating: Partially effective OIG comments: Internal financial controls are adequately designed, but a number of issues identified at the National TB Program affect the effective management of grant funds.
public revenues and public funding for effective public health protection and universal health coverage.” Legge, Labonte and Sanders said that the new partnership with Unilever will assist the Global Fund in financing the protection of young women from HIV while advertising Unilever’s soap. “The role of hand-washing in preventing AIDS, TB, and malaria is minor compared with sexual exploitation and gender-based violence (reflecting inequality between women and men), poor housing, a lack of urban infrastructure, and weak health systems,” they said. In conclusion, the researchers said that the Global Fund apparently believes that it can address the challenges of HIV, TB, and malaria while accepting funds from corporate investors and the alcohol and food industries. “But are the Global Fund’s important efforts in fighting AIDS, TB, and malaria worth the risks that private partnerships might bring to health systems, alcohol policy implementation and NCDs?,” they asked.
