A produção de milho também deverá ser recorde, chegando a 96 milhões de toneladas. No entanto, a capacidade atual de armazenamento do País gira em torno de 168 milhões de toneladas, o que representa cerca de 60% do total produzido. Ou seja, há um evidente déficit de armazéns para estocagem dos grãos. Diante deste cenário, no Mato Grosso, toneladas de milho já estão sendo “armazenadas” a céu aberto. A fabricação de etanol de milho pode ser uma solução para agregar valor ao grão, principalmente nos momentos em que a produção do cereal está significativamente elevada e os preços baixos.  “Nossa produtividade tem aumentado muito, o que inevitavelmente acarreta em redução nos preços. Já temos no Brasil hoje entre três a quatro usinas fabricantes de etanol de milho, indústria que ao meu ver veio para ficar”, afirma Henrique Amorim, presidente da Fermentec. O potencial do etanol de milho será um dos temas discutidos na 17ª Conferência Internacional DATAGRO sobre açúcar e etanol, que acontece nos dias 06 e 07 de novembro, em São Paulo.Veja a programação completa do evento. O ex-ministro da Agricultura e presidente-executivo da Associação Brasileira de Produtores de Milho (Abramilho), Alysson Paolinelli compartilha de uma opinião semelhante. “O etanol de milho é oportunidade, e não fuga para o produtor brasileiro”, diz. Segundo Paolinelli, a possibilidade cada vez mais crescente de o milho ser usado para fabricação de etanol, especialmente no Centro-Oeste, é um novo caminho que se abre para agregação de valor ao produto e consequentemente ganho de renda para o agricultor. De acordo com o dirigente, o potencial de desdobramento do milho em outros derivados é similar ao da soja, e que a pesquisa e o desenvolvimento de novas descobertas neste sentido precisam ser estimulados.

Climate change is not about some far-off day in the future -- its impacts are here, now, and can't be denied. Americans across the country are already experiencing very real effects: More frequent and severe extreme weather, like droughts and storms. Our coastal cities are seeing rising seas -- and flooding when it's just high tide. And each of the last three calendar years were the hottest years ever recorded. But here's the good news: Even if the White House refuses to take action -- and denies the basic climate science that 97% of the experts agree on -- we can still make a real, tangible difference in this fight. Next Thursday, July 27th, I'm leading an online presentation to update supporters on the very latest on climate. I'll walk you through the latest science, the undeniable real-world impact, and the politics at play so you'll be prepared to keep up the fight in your community. People like you, who know how important this issue is, are using this as a chance to host "watch parties" in their communities -- gathering with friends and families, and then leading a discussion about specific ways they can make an impact. Will you host one, too? Don't miss your chance to become a local leader in the fight on climate change -- let us know you're interested, and we'll tell you more.

We've been organizing to stop the repeal of Obamacare for months -- from hosting events, to making phone calls, to visiting with our elected officials. Earlier this week, it paid off as senators began announcing that they could not support Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell's disastrous "repeal and replace" bill. It was a big victory, but Mitch McConnell is moving the goalposts again. In a last-ditch effort to repeal Obamacare, he's been meeting with senators on the fence about repeal, twisting arms and offering whatever he can to change their vote. Obamacare has survived every attempt at repeal so far, but McConnell won't take no for an answer. We have to stay vigilant. We need to let our representatives know that now is the time to work on a bipartisan solution and repeal is unacceptable. Tweet at a key senator right now to let them know: Tweet Mitch McConnell is out of good ideas. Millions losing care, whether it's 22 million or 32 million, is not an option. Ending Medicaid is not an option. Leaving the poor, elderly, and sick behind is not an option. We started this fight knowing that if we showed how this law benefits real people -- how it's covering tens of millions more Americans, improving everyone's insurance, and establishing, once and for all, that health coverage is a right for everyone, not a privilege for people who can afford it -- that we would stop this crazy crusade for repeal. It's working, but it sure isn't over. Your voice matters. It's always mattered. But it matters now more than ever.

CLIENT ALERT July 20, 2017 Can I Dispute an Arbitrator’s Arbitral Venue or Seat Decision? Typically, you cannot. According to the Eleventh Circuit’s recent decision in Bamberger Rosenheim, Ltd. v. OA Development, Inc., questions of arbitral venue or seat of the arbitration are presumptively for arbitrators to decide, even in international arbitrations. So long as the arbitrator “arguably interpreted the arbitral-venue provision,” courts will defer to his or her interpretation.  Read more... Read the full alert Gustavo J.

Público – O Encceja é voluntário, gratuito e destinado à certificação do Ensino Fundamental e Ensino Médio. O exame é a ferramenta mais adequada para avaliar as pessoas que não tiveram a oportunidade de concluir os estudos em idade apropriada. Dessa forma, podem fazer o Encceja pessoas com no mínimo 15 anos completos na data da realização das provas que desejam pleitear certificação do Ensino Fundamental. Assim como as pessoas com no mínimo 18 anos completos na data da realização das provas que desejam pleitear a certificação do Ensino Médio.

Documentos Certificadores – O Inep é responsável pela elaboração das provas, pela gestão da aplicação e da correção. A emissão dos documentos certificadores é de responsabilidade da Secretaria Estadual de Educação ou Instituição Educacional que firmar Termo de Adesão com o Inep. São duas opções. O Certificado reconhece oficialmente que o educando cumpriu na íntegra todos os componentes curriculares (disciplinas) do núcleo comum do Ensino Fundamental ou do Ensino Médio. Já a Declaração de Proficiência é a certificação parcial que comprova que o participante conseguiu cumprir um ou mais componentes curriculares (disciplinas) nas áreas avaliadas pelo Encceja.

Estrutura da Prova – Cada área do conhecimento tem uma Matriz de Referência (documento que subsidia a elaboração da prova) composta por 30 habilidades. Cada prova é composta por 30 itens do tipo múltipla escolha com quatro alternativas de resposta. O Inep recomenda notas mínimas para as instituições certificadoras. Para as provas objetivas a nota mínima sugerida é de 100 pontos em cada, o que representa em média 50% das habilidades que a prova de cada área afere.  No caso de Língua Portuguesa, Língua Estrangeira Moderna, Artes e Educação Física ou Linguagens, Códigos e suas Tecnologias, o participante deverá adicionalmente obter proficiência na prova de Redação. A prova de redação distribui 10 pontos e a nota mínima sugerida pelo Inep é de cinco pontos. As provas serão aplicadas em um único dia.

Na mesma ocasião foram reveladas as mudanças e prazos do Sistema Avaliação da Educação Básica e o número de inscrições confirmadas do Exame Nacional do Ensino Médio (Enem) 2017. Com as melhorias do Enem anunciadas após a Consulta Pública, no início do ano, o Exame transferiu para o Encceja a função da certificação do Ensino Médio e para o Saeb, a responsabilidade pelo Boletim por Escola.

BRAZIL: MIDYEAR ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL OUTLOOK

Time: 8:00 AM to 10:30 AMLocation: White & Case LLP, New York, New York

Senator José Serra (PSDB-São Paulo) said recently that the current political crisis is deeper than that of 1964, which led to 20 years of military rule. Hopefully this is an overstatement.  Democratic rule is firmly entrenched and supported by all players, but popular distrust of politics and politicians is unprecedented.  The market is currently more concerned about the continuity of the economic team than it is about the fate of the President. Part of the reason is the quality of team; another is the importance of managing the macroeconomic challenges:   Brazil has been in recession for more than two years, with record losses in investments, jobs and income. The public debt continues to grow, due to the recession and growing public expenditures.  Reforms are critically needed, but now threatened by political instability.

With this background, we meet to discuss the macroeconomic and political situation, and short-term

 prospects. It is a challenge.  However, we will be fortunate to have with us an exceptional roster of panelists:
