Since the dawn of time, various societies around the world have experienced different types of conflict, both endogenous and exogenous, and have tried to find solutions and/or develop mechanisms to prevent, manage or simply put an end to them. Peaceful cohabitation and social cohesion remain dependent on the way in which the various types of conflict are dealt with by the community and/or other human groups.

An analysis of a series of 1450 patients with non-small cell lung carcinoma treated at a single institution. Large cell histology was compared with the other classic histologies, adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma and unspecified carcinoma. This series constitutes an important "real world" sample and all external slides were systematically reviewed as part of the routine care recommended at the center where this cohort of patients was treated.

Melatonin is an indolamine derived from the amino acid tryptophan, produced in the pineal gland and characterized by its ability to sequester reactive oxygen species (ROS). The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of melatonin supplementation to Tris-Gema diluent on the cryopreservation of bovine semen. Fifty-four ejaculates from Guzerá bulls were used. The semen was diluted in TRIS-gema, with the addition of melatonin, at the following experimental concentrations: control group - 0¿M; Melatonin - 10¿M; Melatonin - 100¿M; Melatonin - 200¿M. They were then filled into 0.25mL straws and cryopreserved. After thawing at 37°C for 30 seconds, the aliquots were analyzed for the Rapid Thermal Resistance Test (RTT), plasma membrane (PM) integrity, acrosome (Ac), mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and sperm kinetics. The percentages of motility were higher (p

The objectives of this study were the chemical and sensory characterization of gluten-free cookies made from mixed green legume flour, Vigna unguiculata (caupi), Lablab purpureus (mangalô) and Cajanus cajan (andu), and rice (Oryza sativa). A completely randomized design with three replications was used, comprising three treatments (BFC - caupi; BFA - andu and BFM - mangalô). The centesimal composition of the products was determined and sensory acceptance was evaluated with 60 consumers. The BFM treatment tended to have a higher protein and calorie content; the BFC treatment showed a lower protein and ash content; the BFA treatment tended to have a higher ash content. The BFC treatment showed better consumer acceptance, differed significantly from the others in terms of appearance, taste, texture and overall quality, and did not differ in terms of aroma. The use of mixed legume and rice flour proved to be a good alternative in the preparation of gluten-free cookies, which could be consumed by consumers in general or those with restricted gluten intake.

This research was initially motivated by the theoretical debate on ready-made, pop art and conceptual art, which arose from the criticism of the intellectual and aesthetic closure present in the canons demanded by school curricula in Brazil. The implications of these concepts are discussed in parallel with the development of a critical view of European and North American classifications as suitable matrices for understanding the creation of artists such as Arthur Bispo do Rosário, Brazil (1909-1989) and Georges Adéagbo, Benin (1942). In a complementary way, the path of the researcher-artist participates in the process of understanding and analysis. The focus was on the material and matter of everyday objects used in the work of Arthur Bispo do Rosário and on the itineraries of the works of Georges Adéagbo, a self-taught artist who exhibits his ideas and narratives in the form of "sculptural" objects, occupations of public spaces.

Located in an arid climate zone, with an economy still largely dominated by agro-sylvo-pastoral production, Burkina Faso has a relatively high population growth rate and is experiencing increasing pressure on natural resources. The country therefore faces a number of challenges, not the least of which is the need to reconcile the needs of the population with the need to maintain and even develop these resources. Although the problems are well known and are the subject of a great deal of thought and analysis, leading to the design of development policies and strategies by public authorities, NGOs and civil society organisations, the impact of significant action to translate the concept of sustainable development into concrete reality remains mixed. Initiatives aimed at involving local communities more closely are based on the evidence that any sustainable change requires the interests of the main stakeholders to be taken into account. This must be done within the framework of a genuinely participatory process, from the identification of problems to the implementation and monitoring of actions.

Inclusive education is a current priority in Burkina Faso's education system. It is an approach that takes into account the specific needs of learners without discrimination. Particular emphasis is placed on this approach, which promotes education for all. But its implementation is struggling to become a reality due to enormous difficulties, including social representations. This masterpiece depicts the influence of social representations of visual impairment among so-called normal pupils on the educational inclusion of pupils with visual impairments. It shows that negative social representations have a negative impact on the integration of visually impaired pupils. Normal pupils, on the other hand, who represent visual impairment positively, accept their disabled peers, and this encourages their inclusion. The author also outlines a number of strategies for dispelling negative social representations.Please receive the information. I remain available for further information.

In addition to hydrocarbons, which make up the majority of oil, impurities such as sulphur, oxygen, nitrogen and metals can be found in the composition of crude oils. To obtain the final products, oil is refined. In refining, impurities are removed by physical and chemical processes. Sulphur compounds can be removed through hydrotreating reactions. Catalysts for this stage are usually metal oxides or sulfides, but secondary stages of processing can use metals, sometimes precious ones. Carbides have been shown to have catalytic activity sometimes superior to that of noble metals, as well as lower poisoning rates. Obtaining carbides via a gas-solid reaction allows many of the difficulties of other processes to be overcome. In this work, the production of Mo2C is studied in two reaction systems: a fixed-bed reactor and a rotary reactor.

Doing Anthropological Research is a book that provides a practical tool for conducting research. This is done through the processes of research chapter by chapter, from the planning and proposal stage to methodologies, secondary research, ethnographic fieldwork, ethical concerns and writing strategies. Case study examples are provided throughout to illustrate particular problems and dilemmas. It can happen. This practical guide will be invaluable to graduate and undergraduate students studying or intending to use anthropological methods in their research.

Philosophy is a vein that does not heal man's ills. Philosophy is necessarily fundamental to development. There can be no reasonable desire for development without critical, rational, serious and profound reflection. Given that the very object of philosophy is Man, and that all questions relating to development concern Man first and foremost, and have Man's well-being as their ultimate goal, it is undeniable that all development must rest on philosophical foundations. Philosophy should never be seen as a "second-best" approach to development issues, since it plays a key role as a proving ground. With technical and scientific progress, the field of exacerbated materialism has suddenly expanded, leaving little room for Man, for the dignity of the human person, for security and equity, for ethical and moral values. This state of affairs calls for a moratorium on serious reflection.

The research shows that the field lesson is a tool that facilitates learning in Geography teaching, as it brings the student closer to the object being studied. The student will be able to identify in everyday life what has been seen in textbooks, providing better learning and awakening in the student a critical sense of the subject. As for the methodology, a qualitative and quantitative approach was adopted. Bibliographical research and a description of the reality of the field school were used as methodological tools. This study was developed through the experiences and observations of 7th grade geography classes at Colégio João Silva in Imperatriz-Ma. The aim of this work is to analyze how practical lessons can contribute to the teaching-learning process in geography. The results obtained show that students and teachers understand the importance of field activities in the teaching process, but there is little incentive to develop them, and that it is necessary for both teachers and the school to rethink their pedagogical approach to this need.

The messages produced during HIV/AIDS awareness campaigns in Cameroon offer a real discursive field worthy of scientific interest. This analysis, entitled "Semiolinguistics and sociolinguistics of HIV/AIDS awareness messages produced by the CNLS and 100% jeune in Cameroon from 2001 to 2019", examines these messages from a linguistic, plastic and iconic point of view. Awareness-raising messages are elements of education whose aim is to adjust the social behaviors and lifestyles of young people. The CNLS and 100% jeune offer various specificities in prevention messages, and are a real field for deploying semiolinguistic and sociolinguistic strategies. Unfortunately, these messages are not always adapted to the target audience. The designers of these messages should therefore take into account the socio-cultural context of these young people when developing awareness-raising messages.

This book analyses the characteristics of political federalism in the broadest sense and, in particular, Brazilian fiscal political federalism and the national federative pact. In this vein, the phenomenon of fiscal municipalisation is analysed, with the increase in transfers of resources to municipalities and the guarantee of autonomy as a federative entity, implemented in the Political Charter of 1988. The international scenario of fiscal responsibility is analysed, inspiring the Brazilian Fiscal Responsibility Law, which establishes the administrative sanction expressed in the sole paragraph of art. 11, raising questions about the autonomy of municipalities and the characteristics of tax competence. The answer was obtained through the position of the Federal Supreme Court, which analysed the constitutionality of the provision.

In educational institutions, managers are required to dynamize the teaching practice in order to implement and integrate the efforts of all the actors and achieve an efficient work based on a continuous process of improvement and training in the search for better means for the fulfillment of the managerial function. This contextual space was the scenario from which the present study arose from the Venezuelan contemporaneity. A descriptive research, field design, in which the survey was considered as a data collection technique and the questionnaire designed according to a Likert-type scale as an instrument, whose application to the population constituted by seventy-six managers, allowed concluding the need to strengthen in the managers the competences of a transformational leadership and with it their labor competences with the purpose of developing a quality management, with a wide and participative vision.

A pre-experimental before and after study was carried out with the aim of proposing an educational strategy to reduce accidents in children up to fourteen years of age in the Florencia Health Area. The universe consisted of 180 families with patients up to fourteen years of age and the sample consisted of 54 families. The charge sheets of the statistics department and the survey of patients' relatives were used as information supporting the need for the intervention. A database was created using Excel software. The data were collected and determined according to the classification of the variables, processed with the help of the SSPS program for Windows and distributed according to their frequencies. As a measure of mathematical-statistical analysis of the information, the percentage calculation and the arithmetic mean were used. The results were presented in tables. The epidemiological behavior of the accident victims in the study is mediated by the rurality of the environment. Family members attained more solid and deeper knowledge about accidents after the educational intervention.

The conservation of genetic resources of domestic animals has received special attention in recent years, especially in relation to native populations. The search for strategies for the sustainable use of this diversity is of great importance to public and private entities around the world. The FAO defines diversity as the level of genetic polymorphism. Native domesticated ruminant species include goats, sheep and cattle from Europe, Asia and Africa. These animals are considered hardy, well adapted to local conditions and generally have dual aptitude. The preservation of these local breeds is important for maintaining cultural traditions, such as the manufacture of typical products by small producers, associated with regional customs. Due to their low productivity and lack of knowledge of their genetic potential, many breeds are threatened with extinction and are restricted to a few conservation herds. This article will look at the use of molecular markers to study the genetic diversity of native ruminants of recognized importance to local biodiversity that are catalogued and protected by the FAO.

The purpose of the research was to generate a linking model of geometry teaching in Primary Education from a developmental didactic approach, which contributes to the efficient development of Geometric Thinking, with the interest of offering a didactic way for the pedagogical treatment of geometry contents at this level. The critical rationalist approach is assumed, with support in the deductive method to derive the Model, which seeks to explain which variables define the relationship between the development of geometric thinking in Primary Education, from Van Hiele, and the developmental teaching-learning process. The methodological sequence was structured in deductive phases: from the facts to the problem, from the problem to the hypothesis, from the hypothesis to the theories, from the theories to the model. The research generated the thesis that postulates the efficient formation of Geometric Thinking through the linking of the Van Hiele Model with the didactic posture of learning development, being validated through criteria of the rationalist approach, represented in aspects of consistency, universality, completeness, systematisation and relevance.

Complex systems are agglomerations of individuals, events and behaviors that are based on patterns of random situations that give rise to futuristic results when they are analyzed using computer tools through computer simulations. The prediction of events that have not yet happened has never been more evident than it is today, which proves its importance in the current environment in which we live. All this research is based on studying patterns of random events that form facts and situations that may or may not happen with human intervention.

The purpose of this paper is to analyse the impact of the decision of the Federal Supreme Court, in Habeas Corpus 126.292 SP, which on 17 February 2016 set a precedent for a new understanding in criminal procedural law about the beginning of the execution of a conviction before its final and unappealable sentence. From then on, it was possible for the defendant to be sent to prison immediately after the conviction was confirmed by a panel of judges in the second degree of jurisdiction. However, the inmate retains the right to appeal to the higher courts, but remains behind bars. According to the new jurisprudence interpreted by the STF, the phase of analysing evidence and materiality is exhausted in the First Degree Court and it is admitted that the Principle of the Presumption of Innocence ceases after the conviction is confirmed in the Second Instance. To this end, the bibliographical and documentary research method is used, studying doctrinal and principiological concepts on the legal framework, highlighting the Federal Constitution and the Principle of the Presumption of Innocence.

Reflections on Hegel: What does it mean to read Hegel's text? After reading Hegel's Science of Logic, you don't know anything. Why is that? Many philosophers are unanimous in saying that almost every reader is unable to decipher Hegel's concepts. This is because the style of Hegel's texts is a challenge to thinking, seen firstly as an activity of thought, a synthesis of the objective and subjective of thinking, and then conceived as a reflection on something in Hegel. And the greatest challenge left by Hegel to the reader is to know that truth, in Hegel, is not a process, but a movement, whose coherence must be developed with arguments. This is the problem addressed in various parts of the essays collected in this book, written between 2013 and 2015, which New Academic Editions now presents to the public as a new textual and hermeneutic analysis of the conceptual network of Hegel's Science of Logic. The analysis should help feed the reflections of teachers, researchers and students who seek to find the answers to the great logical, methodological and epistemo-metaphysical problems and the means of understanding Logic.

A foreign language class is above all a network of intersecting cultural patterns. Cultural images constantly circulate in both directions: Language 1¿Language 2. In this context, the teacher and students must be sensitive to this cultural translation without falling into the trap of iconoclasm. This book borrows from the visual arts and literature to shed light on this cultural aspect of a language lesson. Grouped around the theme of the family, trainers and trainees will find an interesting model for raising awareness of intercultural competence. Reading the imagery present in the texts and paintings that this book proposes as a "déclencheur" document offers a clue to negotiating intercultural competence that prepares students to become citizens of the world. Once defined, this global citizenship goes beyond the classroom and extends to the reception structures of the various displaced people in today's large migratory flow. Reading this book can be very useful for foreign language teachers and students, and for public and private managers of the world's geo-migratory areas.

Adolescents affected by osteosarcoma and amputated can tell us stories of struggle, overcoming, patience and courage in search of a cure. Adolescents who are victims of amputation weave links with the intra-family network and with friends, school and the health team, with spirituality, sport and leisure as a coping strategy. Analysing this weaving contributes to fostering relationships of affection and trust between the adolescent, their family and their social network. This coping strategy has the potential to promote health by strengthening autonomy and contributing to individualised nursing care. This book is aimed at health professionals who deal with adolescent cancer patients, with a view to reflecting on early diagnosis and the importance of stimulating their bonds.

This work aims to make it easier to understand Foucault's studies on human sexuality. The French philosopher has a reputation for writing eloquently, which doesn't always mean that reading is easy or fluid. In this sense, we have endeavoured to present the broad outlines of his thought for those who wish to begin studying Foucault. This volume seeks to clarify the main ideas of the work History of Sexuality: The Use of Pleasures, in which Michel Foucault looks at the "evolution" (and we'll see if this term is appropriate) of sexuality throughout history, going through the society of Ancient Greece and the Modern Age, dispelling myths that are commonly heard, reconstructing knowledge and making his own comments about the values that surround sexual activity throughout history.

This paper presents an analysis of civil engineering inspection manuals, delimited by Brazilian region, in order to identify their specificities, with a view to making a contribution to professionals who work in the inspection of works and services. The analysis is also relevant due to the instructional nature of the manuals, which are aimed at the construction industry. In order to understand the perspective adopted, after the introductory notions, we begin by dealing with the issue of the text, then move on to the genre, and then talk about intertextuality, given the linguistic view of the object of engineering. We then move on to the analysis itself.

This end-of-course work deals with the level of compliance of audit opinions published for companies in the electricity sector with the guidelines given by the technical standards for independent auditing, NBC TA 700, which deals with the audit opinion. The main objective of this work was to measure the level of compliance between the opinions and the guidelines given by the current standard. In order to carry out this work, a documentary survey was carried out on 51 audit opinions from companies in the electricity sector. In order to standardize the data collected, a documentary data collection form was created. After the survey, the information was tabulated in a statistical program called SPSS, whose function was to provide a more accurate elaboration of the tables, using variable crossing techniques, enabling a more detailed analysis. The results of the survey showed that basic information that should be included in the auditor's report, such as the name of the independent auditor who carried out the work, is not being provided by large companies, considered big fours.

The life of the Indian. The fighting Indian always has a story to tell. Things about his life that he can't deny. Life is suffering, and I need to recover. I fight for my land, because it belongs to me. She's my mother, and she makes a lot of people happy. She gives us everything, if we plant the seed. My struggle is great, I don't know when it will end. I don't give up on my dreams, and I know when I'll find them. The happiness of a people who live to dream. Being Indian isn't easy, but they have to understand. That we are warrior Indians. And we fight to win. We have to seek peace and see our people grow. I'm proud to be Indian, and I have culture to show for it. I fight for my ideals, and I'll never give up. I am Pataxó Hãhãhãe, And I have a lot to expand. Edmar Batista de Souza (Itohã Pataxó).

Current challenges in the prevention of anti-Semitism arise for subject-specific didactics with special consideration of historical-political education, because in addition to theoretical, historical, socio-cultural and critical descriptions must be demonstrated. Knowledge and education are necessary, but do not protect, (self) reflection and socio-cultural competence as well as independent educational experience with supportive framework conditions are indispensable. Knowledge of the Middle East conflict and Israel's geography is essential.
