This research searched to identify and to analyze the main factors that influence the expression and development of the ethics in an organization of the state public sector Secretaria da Fazenda do Estado de São Paulo - SEFAZ, addressing the space occupied by Agentes Fiscais de Rendas - AFRs. The concern with the issue of ethical values is increasingly present in the public sector. Several fronts seems to announce the return of ethical philosophy: the development of new schools of thought, the renaissance of the ethical debate and the multiplication of the discussions. The structuring of the work stems from the history and unique position of the author, Production Engineer and AFR in the organization studied. Based on the multidisciplinary profile that characterizes Production Engineering, we sought to undertake an exchange to enable a fruitful discussion between the two fields. The first part of the work consisted of pointing out the problem of research against a broader background and theoretical reference chosen for it. Then the studied organization was presented and described their history together with the morphology of its population, composed of inspectors and other categories of servers. We show how the concepts relevant in this field: inspectors, taxes,internal mechanisms of control, ethics are constructed objects, resulting in a continuous process of evolution of the organization. The instruments for the control of conduct relating to the inspectors were identified and presented following a time sequence trying to define the rationale, motivation and support that had created the conditions for the formation of the instruments of the organization. We note that the process of building mechanisms of control surpasses the limits of the organization, coming to receive the influence of players as far away as: national and international civil organizations, media, academia, business and other public agencies. There is a dynamic process of export-import of theoretical models in the process of deploying the mechanisms of control. The rationality that these models praise, as the increase of emphasis in efficiency or visibility of the organization, dispute space with the civic ideal underlying the relationship between the public service and citizens. The existence of multiple rationalities in the mechanisms of control can be a factor of uncertainty in the form of public officials to give accounts. On the other hand, it also indicates that the public service and its servers are not indifferent to the yearnings of the society in the fight against the corruption, meeting agents worried in interpreting and taking care of the yearnings of ethics emanated by the society.

The new product development (NPD) is essential for the competitiveness, mainly for small and medium sized Technology-based Companies (TBCs), which innovation can be considered one of its main business process. The objective of this thesis is characterizing and proposing a reference model to the NPD in small and medium sized TBCs from the process control automation (PCA) and medical-hospital equipment (HME) sectors. The specifications to develop the reference model were done according to a practical research, which considered both quantitative and qualitative research method. Firstly, a survey was done based on a sample of 62 TBCs in order to characterize practices used in the NPD management. Elucidation of the results generated from the statistical procedures enabled to find a set of factors (practices) that affect the success of product development in these companies. Management factors related to the pre-development activities, the role played by the leader in the NPD project and the proficiency in executing the activities of technical development were indicated as a determinant factor of success. After this process, a qualitative research was done in four TBCs in order to analyse better the PDP of these companies. After the empirical evidence in the analysis and considering the theoretical reference about the NPD, it was possible to formalize a number of proposals which enabled a reference model to manage the NPD in small and medium sized TBC from PCA and HME sectors. The model has five dimensions: strategic orientation; process; organization and leadership, evaluation and performance and resources. The research enabled to characterize the NPD management in such a specific companies and to provide a reference model, which can be used as a diagnostic and support to the organization of the NPD management in small and medium sized TBCs.

This paper is all about spatial perception in order to be used at participative process of urban planning. The spatial perception to deal with the relationship between human being and space to identify needs, desires, opinions, appropriation level, to have a basic grasp of citizen and so on. The urban process has taken the human being to adapt to transformed space, instead of to adapt to space to human being, to take for granted the consequences of life quality. Some of the authors like Kevin Lynch and Amos Rapoport show that the built space should be adapted to human needs searching spatial quality. For this, the supplied subsidies by spatial perception are valuable to planner to take a decision. This subsidies come form population introducing different way to popular participation at planning process. There are many techniques to get the population perception. For instenee: the interviews, the mental maps, the photographs, etc. It is established a methodology strategy in each case according to the specific study s object and the research purpose. To discuss the perception spatial as participative process are analyzed three brazilians experiences which one is involved the public power; one of them at Região Metropolitana de Vitória (ES), the other at Santo André (SP) and at last Araraquara (SP). After all, the feasibility of the spatial perception as participative instrument is argued theoretically studying the subsidies supplied, the quality of popular participation and the condition for its introducing.

The purpose of this study is to examine the participation of the State University of Montes Claros (UNIMONTES) in the context of education policies of the country as regards its participation and proposition of training teachers in the Superior Normal mode in the post- LDBEN. Delineamos object of study as the training of teachers of the course Normal Superior / Modular offered by UNIMONTES. I reviewed the theoretical assumptions and economic education in the proposals of neoliberal Miltom Friedrick Hayek and Friedman. This study if it bases on the contributions of Karl Marx. The methodology is guided by qualitative research-quantitative, combining data: questionnaires, interviews, official documents of the course Normal Superior, matches of students and production of texts. The considerations possible, this research is that UNIMONTES, contributed to the access of a significant contingent of teachers of elementary school, following the decisions of LDBEN 9394/96. However, the university changes its role in training teachers when relegates to the background the course of teaching that has historical tradition in the training of professional education in the north of Minas.

In this dissertation we determine maximum likelihood and bayesian estimates of the size of a closed population, from two lists of data of elements of the population. It has been supposed that the registers of the individual information in the lists are capable of mismatches and, with relation to the bayesian method, the prioris distributions are noninformative and they have maximum enthropy for the parameters. We also present the bayesian model, witch has considered the numbers elements of the two lists as a latent variable. We compare these models through examples with simulated and real data.

The present study was developed in Jardim Gonzaga , a peripheral neighborhood of the city of São Carlos, interior of the State of São Paulo, where the project Vivências em Atividades Diversificadas de Lazer (Experiences in Diversified Leisure Activities) takes place. This is a university extension project (São Carlos Federal University), in partnership with the project Campeões na Rua (Champions in the Street), coordinated by São Carlos s Town Hall. The objective of this research was to analyze the educative processes present in the social practice of leisure, with particular attention to the playful elements (ludic), in the context of the project Vivências em Atividades Diversificadas de Lazer , which took place in the Communitarian Station (ECO) of Jardim Gonzaga, especially through the perception of the oldest participants, their relatives and the educators. The methodology used was situated phenomenon , a phenomenological qualitative inquiry. Interviews were carried out with four participants and four respective relatives¸ inserted in the projects since the beginning (2002). Three educators currently participating in the project were also interviewed. For the gathering of data, field diaries were made between September of 2004 and April of 2008. In the analysis of the data the next categories were established: A) Playing and learning in the project; B) ECO is a better space for the projects; C) The importance of the educators; D) Driving children out of the street; E) To play and to learn with a full tummy is better. These categories made the construction of the results possible. In the considerations I observed, among the educative processes resulting from the relationship between the participants, the educators and their relatives: learning while they are playing, diversified ludic experiences and independence in choosing how to enjoy leisure, affection and sensibility, collective work, respect and solidarity for others, racial-ethnically affirmative actions, respect and interaction with the environment, incentive towards reading and writing, apprenticeships in different spaces, commitment. Finally, I would like to emphasize that besides what we learn (games; mutual respect, without regard to gender, age, race, social status, professional status, culture...), equally important is how we learn (we humanize ourselves): in concrete experiences, in significant existences, in reciprocity.

In survival analysis some studies show a meaningful cure rate after treatment followup, so considering standard survival models can not be appropriate. In this work is extended the long-term survival model proposed by Chen, Ibrahim and Sinha (1999) via generating function of a real sequence introduced by Feller (1967). This new formulation is the uni_cation of the long-term survival models proposed by Rodrigues el al. (2008). Also, as in Rodrigues el al. (2008) it is shown that the long-term survival generating function satis_es the proportional hazard property if only if the number of competing causes related to the occurence of a event of interest follows a Poisson distribution. A real data set is considered to illustrate this approach.

The synthesis and characterization of Ba1-xCaxTiO3 (BCT) for x = 5; 10; 15; 20; 40 e 80 % mol that crystallizes in a perovisquita structure were studied in this work. The BCT material was synthesized by CPM which allows obtaining structurally ordered and disordered powders. The effect of the calcium concentration was analyzed for the structurally ordered and disordered materials. The powders were crystallized at several temperatures ranging from 400 to 1200 °C for different times. The obtained materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X-ray Absorption Near Edge Structure (XANES) and photoluminescent emission (PL). These techniques allowed to observe the evolution of the phases as well as the structural disorder of the samples. XRD results indicated that up to 20 % mol of calcium, there is formation of a solid solution with Ca2+ ion occupying the Ba2+ site in the of the BaTiO3 crystalline network. It was verified that the BCT ordered phase was obtained after calcining at 600 °C by 2 h. The presence of an intermediate oxicarbonate barium phase in temperatures below of the tetragonal BCT crystallization. The luminescent property of structurally ordered and disordered BCT powders were studied at room temperature, using two excitation wavelengths: 350,7 nm and 488,0 nm. Structurally disordered BCT present broad PL band when excited by both of wavelengths. The powders annealed at 500 oC displays the most significant PL intensity. It was verified that with the increase of the calcium concentration, the maximum of the photoluminescent emission curve tends to laser wavelength energy. XANES spectra showed in the disordered powders the coexistence of sixfold and fivefold titanium coordination. A correlation between the coexistence of this two types of coordination for the titanium atoms and PL was proposed.

From the link between the works of Freud, Ferenczi and Groddeck, this study attempts to show that psychoanalysis, since their first developments, provides evidence for the formulation of a psychoanalytic psychosomatic. In the first chapter, when we approach psychoanalytic concepts that are in the intersection between the psychic and somatic, we present evidences suggesting that somatic changes that affect somatic functions and/or structures are produced when, under impact of a traumatic situation, added by the insufficiency of the specific action, the discharge of the affection occurs of a totally unconscious way, running a cumulative excitement that found no other way of expression. This means of discharge, which is based upon the acting, not on the word, can come up from phylogenesis after the failure of the ontogenesis to equip the individual with more consistent reactions to him face limit-situations of reality. Prevented from acting against the object, the natural aggressiveness -inherent to the instincts of preservation of the species- acts in the way to disrupt the psychic functioning or, if it is sufficiently protected by the cleavage of the ego, disorganizing the somatic structures. On that regression beyond the psychic limits, selfdestructiveness, remnant of the original masochism, expressed a force even more basic in the formation of living being, as sought to show in the second chapter. Identified by Freud at both the psychological level as in the somatic level, the death drive extends the roots of unconscious to the biological level, considering the existence of an undifferentiated region between soma and psyche, where the variations of a level impact on the other. This hypothesis is supported: (1) by Ferenczi, who introduced changes in analytical technique with the aim of promoting a regression able to access content from traumatic experiences, and reached archaic and undifferentiated contents, that remains detained in the body as a memory without words, at the margin of language and the further development of the ego, producing psychical and somatic suffering, (2) by the location of the It at the psychic apparatus, connected directly with the somatic forces. By tracing the origin of It until the thought of Groddeck, in the third chapter, we find an unconscious-It that precedes the psychosomatic existence. For Groddeck, the lack of symbolic significance of organic diseases are due to the split between soma and psyche inherent at the explanatory model, for which the disease and the sickness organs are not seen as symbols that can be decoded and resized from the symbolic nature of unconscious. Finally, we show that, in despite the work of Freud provides explanations for the psychosomatic phenomenon in a psychoanalytic perspective it is Groddeck and Ferenczi that provide the clinical features that allow rescuing the psychosomatic phenomenon to become synonymous with lack of symbolization. Despite Freud have remained away of this issue and skeptical about the resolution of the psychosomatic disease through analysis, some of his assertions in his last years show that the creator of metapsychology not remained totally unrelated to that possibility.

In the last years, some expressions such enterprises and supplier cooperation relationship have became used. The main objective of those relationships is to improve the competitiveness of the organizations through costs reductions and quality / flexibility improvements. On this context, this work presents and analyzes, through a case study method, a new form of purchasing management in a stationery products company that is the Brazilian leader of its segment. The enterprise looks for a higher organizational strategy alignment in order to guarantee its leadership. To achieve this aim, the enterprise changed its manufacturing management framework, initially based just on cost and quality issues, to a more responsive paradigm. The work presents all changes inside the purchasing department and the consequent effects to other areas directly related to the acquisition process. A theoretical and empiric analyses is presented, where the research, based on theory, identify the main manufacturing management strategic paradigms and how they can be related to the state of art in purchasing management. Following, the work presents the purchasing management framework of the organization in two different moments: from 1998 to 2001 and after 2002. It will be possible to realize how strategic the purchasing management can become to an organization. The results can be useful to enterprises with the same characteristics or inserted in the same process of change.

The aim of this study was to analyze and compare the competitiveness of differentiation systems that use certification and brands as segmentation strategies in the bovine meat market in Brazil. It was developed a qualitative research in a multi case study including a bibliographic review and exploratory interviews. Five cases were identified and chosen to be analyzed: a case of public certification, two cases of private certification, one of publicprivate certification, and one about brand. The case analysis was conducted using an adapted methodology from agri-food chain studies with a model including competitive parameters from the original proposal as well as new parameters from economy of the transaction cost and propriety rights theories. The model for competitive analysis used thirteen parameters and grouped them in tree blocks: government controlled, firm controlled and quasi controlled parameters. These aspects made possible a better comprehension and knowledge about each case, allowing the competitive analysis among each strategy. Main conclusions are: government parameters had higher negative influence in the competitiveness; lack of institutions and good paper definitions on existent institutions involved in the certifications process are serious problems; the brand case presented better competitiveness parameters.

Flexible goniometers are useful for direct movement measurements. However issues related to subject-sensor interface can introduce measurement errors. Crosstalk, i.e. the phenomenon that flexion/extension angles affect the varus/valgus angles, and vice versa, is considered as the main drawback of goniometers. It is not well known the effect of the variation between identical sensors and the crosstalk due to endblocks misalignment in frontal and transverse planes. Thus, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of these sources of variation to goniometer recordings. A precision jig, for simulating pure flexion/extension angles, was constructed. Goniometer sensors were attached to this jig. In the initial study six biaxial goniometers were evaluated. Each sensor showed a consistent and specific crosstalk pattern. A procedure for correction for the inherent crosstalk, based on polynomial adjust, was proposed and evaluated. This procedure provided a major reduction of the inherent crosstalk. A second study was developed to evaluate the effect of endblocks misalignments. Results showed that varus/valgus misalignments did not cause additional errors for the recordings. Rotation between endblocks was the main source of error. Compensation procedures developed in the first study were applied in this second one, also resulting in crosstalk reduction. These compensations might be required in functional movement recordings to elucidate the crosstalk effect in knee measurements and the impact of the compensation procedures in measures, such as peaks, ranges of motion and movements curves.

The research has as objective to study the occupational trajectories of unstable workers of construction industry that face a permanent social vulnerability. We tried to analyze the type of strategies and social networks used by these unstable workers, through the insecurity of employment contracts and the absence of social State protection or in front of some difficult to obtain formal protection. We examine how they deal with the social and natural events like employee job search, unemployment, unstable income, ageing and absence from work caused by work-related accidents and illness and how they appealed to informal social networks to solve these specific situations. We also analyze the workers perceptions of how this circumstance affects their working conditions, their health and their social reproduction. For this, we interviewed twenty civil building laborers of São Carlos-SP, Brazil, with at least twenty-five years old and five years working as a buildings laborer. We choice this sector because of its high instability, large informal contingent, outsourcing and subcontracted workers, high turnover, harmful working conditions and insecurity of employment contracts. The qualitative analysis shows that construction industry, that have been historically an employment choice for young rural migrants, newly unemployed person and workers without experience, becomes a job opportunity (or the last choice) for retirements and specialized labor force, dismissed of heavy industry during the process of productive restructuring. Some of them, who already had experimented labor and social security laws, starts to work in a social and economic precarious situation after set to work in construction industry, such as metal workers. We identified that informal social networks are crucial for professional vulnerability, job inconstancy and absence from work, at long last, in the daily survival. The most important social networks are the nuclear family, blood ties, communal identity and religious identification. The state is increasingly less present and the non-state public institutions, such as the union, are not part of these work s networks. The workers don t have financial conditions to acquire private forms of protection and in front of the life instability, they build strategies such as double day of work, pin money, purchasing goods profitable, and, in some cases, they need to continue working after retirement. The vulnerability present along all trajectories, make workers notes their condition with powerlessness, revolt and resignation.

The behavior of nitric oxide (NO) in biological systems has been under intense investigation in recent years in view of its possibly crucial role in a variety of physiological processes. Great progress in this area has been achieved by studying nitrosyl transition metal complexes. In this sense ruthenium complexes are by far the most studied and their relation to nitric oxide, acting as potential drugs, has been well explored in the literature. It should be punted out that ruthenium compounds normally exhibit fewer general toxicity problems than other metal-based drugs as showing by clinical experiments with a variety of ruthenium complexes, including some containing coordinated nitric oxide. Specifically for use as anticancer agents, ruthenium complexes are very promising, showing activity against tumors that have developed resistance to cisplatin or in which cisplatin is inactive. Nowadays two ruthenium-based anticancer drugs, NAMI-A [ImH][trans-RuCl4(DMSO)(Im)] and KP1019 [ImH][trans-RuCl4(Im)2] (Im = imidazole), have successfully completed phase I clinical trials and are scheduled to enter phase II trials in the near future. Also, the synthesis and evaluation of biological properties of ruthenium complexes with ligands of biological importance has attracted much attention of researchers of the bioinorganic area because the synergic effect from the ligand and metal residue can be expected once the administered coordination compound dissociates inside the body. Further beneficial effects can come from pharmaceutical principles based on coordination molecules, for example protection exerted by the metal-ligand bond against enzymatic degradation of the active ligand, modulation of hydrophobicity/hydrophilicity of the drug molecule and through this optimization of permeability of membranes. Thus these subjects have been performed in our laboratory and our research group has been interested in nitrosyl ruthenium complexes containing phosphine ligands, first to explore the structural, spectroscopic and electrochemical properties of such species with a focus on the effect of the type of isomer and co-ligands on the NO+ electronic characteristics. More recently was tested some of the compounds in cytotoxicity assays with a human tumor cell line, in order to evaluate their antitumor potential. Preliminary results were very promising and stimulate us to explore this potential in other nitrosyl ruthenium derivatives. In this work we report the preparation and characterization of nitrosyl complexes with the general formula cis-[RuCl2(NO)(dppp)(L)]PF6, where L is pyridine (py) [1], 4-Methylpyridine (4-Mepy) [2] or 4-Phenylpyridine (4-Phpy) [3] and dppp = 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane, obtained from the fac-[RuCl3(NO)(dppp)] precursor, and of nitrosyl complexes with the general formula cis-[RuCl(NO)(dppb)(N-N)](ClO4)2, where N-N is 2,2 -bipyridine (bipy) [4], 4,4 -dimethyl-2,2 -bipyridine (Me-bipy) [5],4,4 -dimethóxi-2,2 -bipyridine (MeO-bipy) [6], 4,4 -ichloro-2,2 -bipyridine (Cl-bipy)[7], e 1,10-phenantroline (fen) [8], and dppb = 1,4-bis(diphenylphosphino)butane. The preliminary cytotoxity activities against the MDA-MB-231 tumor cell line (human breast carcinoma) were tested for the compounds [1]-[3] and cis-[RuCl2(NO)(BPA)](HBPA=2-hydroxybenzyl-2-pyridylmethyl)amine, fac-[RuCl3NO(dppf)], RuCl3(NO).2H2O, the free ligands dppp and dppf and cisplatin, this last one for comparison with the new derived compounds. Cell viability was assayed by MTT reduction and the dose-survival curves obtained after 24 h drug treatment, showed a good activity with IC50 values of 21 ± 15; 7,4 ± 3,7; 7,1 ± 2,6; 87 ± 23 and 10 ± 3 μM for the complexes [1], [2], [3], respectively and cis-[RuCl2(NO)(BPA)] and fac-[RuCl3NO(dppf)].

Looking for to legitimize their action the landless country laborers movement has been offering part of the nestings production to the society, it is one way that they found for that. The nestings agriculturists has organizing in association and cooperatives looking for working together can be stronger producing and commercializing instead of producing the capital surplus in any cost as capitalism idea. By the other hand, most part of the production in general raw materials and product in nature with low aggregated value realized has been commercialized by the brokers or executives who add value and take the under values generated by this activity. This research had two objectives: a) analyse the limits and possibilities on the production and on the commercialization in ten enterprises created and administrated for the Rio Grande do Sul and Pernambuco nestings by the participative research and b) to present the process and results of Action Research developed by the students of the Technical Institute of Agrarian Reform and Capacitation (RS), that was looking for the development of the professional qualification methodology in strategic for commercialization applied in land and fruits agro industry. The hypothesis of the forces on the market and the use of the societal marketing strategy acknowledge could show them how to build new offers with major added value to commercialize in choose markets who improves with the dependency relation brake by the brokers increasing the salary for this families and by the other hand keeping the principles and values of he MST and Solidary Economy. The results of the participle research showed that in both states the nestings decided by the production lines first and with the raw material in their hand searching for new markets to sale the production and this logical will generate the tentative and error process that is difficult to suppose and with higher cost. The action research results xi showed the societal marketing acknowledge adapted for and improving the economic result and relationship with the market for the studied enterprise.

The importance of agroecologic transition for the agricultural nesting in the agrarian reform it s as an alternative front to the economic situation, in the recovery of degraded areas, the balance of agroecosystems and the viability of alimentary agricultural production to attend the needs of the families. The objective of this research was to analyze the agroecologic transition in the agricultural nesting Pirituba farm, in the cities of Itapeva and Itaberá, SP. The used methodology was the research-action and bibliographies. In the field work participative methodologies and half-structuralized interviews had been used. Five groups of agroecologic experimentation, the pointers of sustainability and the phases of each experimental agroecologic transition was identified and analyzed. It was shown that some families had interest in proceed in the agroecologic transition and that some areas demonstrated potential for agroecologic production. However, the continuity of these practices is compromised by some factors representing challenges for the families and also for the public policy of sustainable agricultural development. This work presents the perceptions, practice and perspective for the agroecologic transition in the agricultural nesting Pirituba Farm.

Studies have shown that autistic adults and adolescents have a high incidence of cavities due to their substandard practices of oral hygiene. Disruptive behaviors like flinching or fleeing are commonly observed during toothbrushing, as well as agonistic conduct during dental treatment. Few studies have addressed the improvement of toothbrushing efficacy as a form of preventing these problems, and most of the existing works are poor in methodology. This study evaluates the effectiveness of a toothbrushing training program upon children of five to six years of age who have been medically diagnosed as autistic. The children were randomly divided into groups G1, G2 and G3. G1 had training on the use of conventional toothbrushes, with an accompanying song and physical guidance; G2 had electric toothbrush training and physical assistance; group G3 had electric toothbrush training, associated to a song and physical assistance. Video recordings of the training sessions were used to determine the brushing steps assimilated by the children, as well as their autonomy and ability to complete each of the steps along the study. Hygiene results were evaluated through a sequence of treatments and probes. The use of electric toothbrushes apparently resulted in better removal of plaque, even under adverse conditions. G3 showed better plaque indexes than the other two groups, and G2 had better results than G1, suggesting that the use of electric toothbrushes associated to a song and physical assistance can optimize oral hygiene in autistic children. Overall, five-year-olds had better results than sixyear- olds, suggesting that younger children have a lower incidence of adverse behavior (e.g. nausea or vomiting) during toothbrushing.

In this work, structural and dynamic properties of a two-dimensional electron system trapped to helium film, deposited on a solid substrate, are determined through molecular dynamics simulation. The influence of the film thickness and type of substrate on those properties are analyzed in the numerical experiments. A special attention is given to dynamical structure factor that is used to obtain some important properties of this system, like dispersion and mobility of electrons. For the first time, the dynamic structure factor from interacting electron system is applied to the calculus of mobility, introducing a many body effect.

The inability to oxidize fat is a key factor in the etiology of obesity. However, improved performance and VO2max resulting from physical training leads to increased rates of oxidation of fats. Although, there is still a lack of information about the intensity of exercise can interfere with metabolism of carbohydrates and lipids in obese women during a session of exercise and its recovery, because only in an experimental study there is a negative relationship of obesity on the reinstatement of power after a year. Therefore, this study aims to assess the behavior of the metabolism of carbohydrates and lipids in moderately obese women on a test of acute exercise effects on the intensity of ventilatory threshold and the recovery period, in the stage of pre-and post-training physical. This study had the participation of seven women slightly obese (BMI=4.03 kg/m2), with an average age of 43.0 ± 4.0 years, 163 ± 0.2±33.59 cm and previously sedentary who were submitted to the ergospirometry acute test before and after 16 weeks of training in the intensity of ventilatory threshold. During the test respiratory quotient was evaluated to determine the fats and carbohydrates oxidation during exercise and recovery period. The results found that the volunteers used predominantly the energy that comes from carbohydrates during the session of exercise (67.64% and 69.35% of the total spent provided pre-and post-training, respectively). During recovery the percentage of the fats contribution increase of (46.52% of the total oxidized) to the total energy generated, which discreetly marked with training (53.48% of the total oxidized). Based on the findings was observed that the metabolism of carbohydrates provides the muscle contraction support during the exercise in the intensity of ventilatory threshold and that the recovery period lipid metabolism is the counterpart to repay the body stores energy in obese women.

Simultaneously to the strengthening of the neoliberal political project in Brazil, it has been experimented a national outspreading of the Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs), that accomplish the educational practices directed to the youngsters and particularly to the lacking youngster. The present research has intended to analyze the educative practice accomplished by the social educators in two NGOs in Campinas city - São Paulo State, which organizations that actuate in the field of education and social assistance, and dedicated to the social educative area along youngsters in situation of social vulnerability, what is done in a period complementary to the school period. For such, it has been used methods like participative observation, along respective logging in a period of two months in each institution. The interviews half-structured with work team and the youngsters, as well a game, entitled Consensus Game as a facilitator means of the youngsters thoughts, related to the their experiences in the organizations studied. The whole of these material were analyzed based in the major categories, which this work embrace the concepts and discussions about the role of the ONGs/ Third Sector in the contemporary Brazilian society; the present condition of the youth and youngster lacking and urban; the education in its sense more comprehensive, as interest us, in this path, either the ways of formal education and the non formal practices and the social educators theirselves. With empiric data arranged according a theorical support, has provided some discussion, among them, the image of the social educator(s); the consequences of the voluntary work and the low wages given to the professional educators, the programs of revenues transferring and the deepening of the category Respect as guide line for a new understanding of the practices of educator, from a youngsters point of view. In respect to the plurality of difficulties faced by the social educator in daily basis - a material shortage for their intervening, fragile back ground, low wages, technical work gotten as voluntary, among others, such practices can favors, restrictedly and individually, the enlarging of the social net of support of the caring youngsters, and else, operating in the assistancialism logic, since macro-socially does not yield changes in the population target, for instance, the lacking youngster. Thus, we realize that there are an alignment, conscient (or not) to the hegemonic neoliberal political project that reproduces the social, economic and political differences inherent to the production model of the capitalism, and contributing in maintaining the present status quo. Finally, the present research intend to contribute for a better qualification of the practices proposed in the spaces here analyzed, for revealing the objectives implicit in the present model of the public intervening in the social issue, as well to yield subsides for creating and implementing public politics facing young and youngster, putting them as rights carriers, specially to project their lives in a direction of autonomy and respect.
