The issue of social housing interest is disturbing. It is a serious problem of spatial social juridical nature, promoter of segregation and lack of citizenship. In Brazilian cities a paradox was found: there are millions of people who are homeless while there are many millions of unoccupied dwellings. Thus, while families suffer from lack of shelter, there are deconstructing homes. These properties do not meet the stranded social function of property advocated by the Federal Constitution of 1988. There is a new urban juridical order that is consolidated with the advent of the Statute of the City and provides the occupation of those free deconstructed spaces as a way to minimize the current housing demand. The study's main objective is to analyze the possibility of occupation of free constructed spaces through the implementation of legal instruments existing in the legislation as a means of mitigating the housing problems. The legal instruments and procedures must be applied in cities, observing the peculiarities and municipal laws. Action research was conducted in Sertãozinho-SP as an example of an average town in the state that has consolidated a social movement for over 20 years, promoting occupations for housing purposes.

The present study was developed at two schools of the municipality of Cáceres, area of the Alto Pantanal , in the West of the State of Mato Grosso. The research focuses the River Paraguay as an indicative theme of action in environmental education (EA) through the school to the sustainability of the river. The aim is to comprehend the river as an analysis and reflection element to the elaboration of a proposal of school educational intervention that contributes to the planning process of the educational actions to the sustainability of the river Paraguay. The participants of the research are teachers and students from the State high school Onze de Março (EEOM) and teachers/students from the first cycle of the fundamental teaching (I IV) from the Municipal School Jardim Paraíso (EMJP). The investigation occurred in three stages. In the first stage of data collecting, it was used the technique of questionnaire application, and it was answered by 23 teachers and 86 students from EEOM and by 0 9 teachers and 24 students from EMJP. As for the second stage other questionnaire was applied to 19 teachers and 41 students from EEOM and to 05 teachers and 12 students from EMJP in three strategies: A (before the trip to the river), B (exhibition of landscapes, like pictures) and C (trip to the river). In the third collecting, through actions made at the schools of the research, the results point out that the teachers from EEOM have diverse academic formation and the ones from EMJP are graduated in Pedagogy and History. The practice of EA focuses the ecological content of the atmosphere. In the EEOM it is approached in the disciplines of Geography, Chemistry and Biology and by projects in both schools. In general, the potentialities of the river most noticed by the participants are: the water, the biodiversity, besides, the fish; whereas, the main environmental problem noticed is pollution (solid residues and sanitary exhaustion). However, there was a difference of environmental perception of the river in the three strategies of data collecting. In the strategy B of data collecting, the landscape no. 13 of the Fishing Festival (FIP) was the most valued. The strategy B " (landscapes) and C allowed larger perceptive field (space) of the elements of the landscape/river when compared to A . However, in the strategy C , it was noticed the socio-environmental problem of the occupation of the riverbanks. In general, the aesthetic and affective values of the river were the most valued and they relate to the nonmaterial satisfaction of the participants. The third stage, developed at the school, it contributed to the (re)construction of nature and environment concepts, and EA for comprehension of the educational practices of the environmental dimension. The tendency of EA is conservationist/resourcist of environment as a place to live and a system of naturalistic nature. The results of the research pointed out to the need of continuous formation in EA. There is need of a critical/transformational practice of school EA, using the river as an educational potential to the local environmental sustainability.

The achievements of women's social movements have granted such group historically denied rights, it is however noted nowadays that socially constructed values reproduce sexist concepts with regards to human relationships and it is likewise remarkable the important role school education has to encourage attitudes against sexism. On such matter and in the Portuguese language teaching environment of a state school, the purpose of this research is analysing students' concepts on the condition of women in contemporary, with the scope to trigger reasonings on the way such school discipline can contribute to debates on sexism through a methodological approach which can enable the development of writing and reading skills as well as the development of the student's critical reflections about human relationships. From this point and through Cultural Circles on the basis of Paulo Freire's theoretical perspective, students from a state school analysed literary and informational texts about the condition of women, aiming to understand the importance of the referred activity for the setting up of feminist ideas. The survey is characterised as exploratory and brought up hypotheses with regards to the Methodology of the Portuguese Language Teaching and Human Rights Education, specifically against sexism.

The study of Trip Generating Centers and impacts caused by the implementation of these developments for the population of a city, both the highway system, as in the use and occupation of land is important to ensure the sustainable development of urban society. Supermarkets are developments that concentrate a wide variety of products and services attracting a large demand for trips, thus causing impacts on the urban road system. These projects have been studied as Trip Generating Centers in countries like the United States, Argentina and Brazil, however, this work presents a new approach, choosing the Brazilian cities of medium size. With the summary of existing literature on the subject, is proposed: a new methodology for defining the influence area, which considers the potential for attracting new development and its competitors in a geographic information system, and generating models trips to modals other than motor vehicles and no motor vehicles, using simple and multiple linear regression.

It is presented in this research the preparation and consolidation of a project involving artistic works with children who study in a school in the outskirt of São Carlos town, where the proposal of Learning Communities is consolidated. From this suggestion, the scholar educational practices are based on the contributions of Jünger Habermas Communicative Action Theory, Paulo Freire s Dialogic Action Theory and the concept of dialogic learning developed by CREA/ES, besides others from authors who have been worried with social transformations and with the overcoming of educational disparity, having as an aim the insertion in the information society. The investigation had its establishment in the reflection that the interpersonal conflicts are pointed out by the academic literature as one of the main difficulties related to educational and didactic actions. However, some of the studies deriving from the philosophy, psychology and sociology in their interfaces with education has also aimed that school and social learning are not susceptible of concretization out of human interactions. Placed in the didactic and educational field, the examination started from a larger focus about the interactions in the school context, specifying gradually the scholar process and the conception given to the activity about the artistic works called Roda com Arte Project. Having as an objective basis, the dialog was adopted with people from the school to achieve the general purpose in order to understand the educational procedures that are manifested in reflective activities about the artistic works in the dialogic learning perspective. The investigation had the participation of six people, being three children, two teachers and one pedagogical coordinator, who acted in the community studied. In agreement with the principles of the learning communities supervisors, it was used the proceedings of critical communicative methodology to collect and analyze the data, having as the fundamental support the intersubjectivity and reflective categories. In the end of this survey, the main results found were: the learning capability of children from lower social classes starting with interdisciplinary work with the school contents and the knowledge involvement, as well as the experiences proceeding from the school context, as out of it. The potentiality of artistic work and the use of imagination to the teaching in addition to the reinforcement of the scholar and social learning intending to express thoughts and feelings, moreover the need of permanent teaching formation in theories and practices, which allow the knowledge actualization and a supportive teaching concerned with the social transformations. In general, the contributions were evidenced to the Learning Communities proposal, to the investigations in schools and with children, furthermore to the educational and didactic field.

Aiming at the improvement of the wear resistance of a glass former composition, the Fe66B30Nb4, the alloy was modified with the addition of Ti, resulting in the theoretical compositions: Fe63B29Nb4Ti4 (SF1) and Fe65B30Nb4Ti1 (SF2). These compositions were spray formed from the melts into two small deposits each one with different set of processing parameters. The crystalline microstructures obtained were characterized by optical microscopy, SEM/EDS, XRD, DSC and chemical analysis of Nb, Ti (by optical spectroscopy) and N (by thermal conductivity). Also, a melt spun ribbon was produced with the Fe65B30Nb4Ti1 alloy. This procedure provided some information about metastable phases which could form in the deposits: borides, sub-borides and amorphous phase. Finally, several hardness and DSRW wear tests were conducted. Materials weight losses were discussed in comparison to high chromium white cast iron. The spray formed deposit of Fe65B30Nb4Ti1, produced with the SF2 parameters set up, presented 51% less mass loss when comparing with high chromium white cast iron. The rapidly cooled Fe63B29Nb4Ti4 alloy presented a worse wear resistance result than the slowly cooled Fe65B30Nb4Ti1 alloy. Some factors which could have influenced these results were discussed.

This research aims to analyze the institutional changes in labor law and in the Labor Justice courts after the Constitution of 1988. It focuses on the uniform decisions of the Superior Labor Court (TST), as well as the political dynamic between this court and the other powers and actors invested in the institution. We carried out a study of the jurisprudence of the court in individual conflicts, and conducted interviews with relevant actors to achieve this goal. Those interviewed include ministers of the TST, judges of the Labor Judges National Association, lawyers of the judicial advisory boards of the main national trade union centers, and law firms representing businesses and financial corporations. We concluded that the Labor Judiciary Power has been the leader in reforms of the institution itself, in addition to labor law in Brazil, and that it has conferred asymmetric powers to social actors in this process. Moreover, we indicate the limits of this leadership in our legislative model of labor relations.

The problems that are most frequently mentioned in the literature as causes of increase of the prostate are the benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostate cancer. Although conservative alternatives exist for the treatment of these pathologies, the surgical procedure is still a frequent option of treatment. In this context, nursing team assumes fundamental role, with activities in the whole perioperative period, including the preparation for the discharge of the patients undergone prostatectomy. This descriptive study, developed in 3 stages, aimed to identify and to validate nursing interventions for the preparation for the discharge of the patients undergone prostatectomy. In the first stage, an integrative review of the literature was accomplished in order to identify nursing interventions for the preparation for the discharge of the patients undergone prostatectomy. In the second stage, the model proposed by Fehring (1987) for validation of content of nursing diagnoses was adapted, in order to obtain the opinion of experts about the adaptation of those interventions. In the third stage the validated nursing interventions were presented, following by the studies in that they were identified and the level of evidence of them. Twenty four studies were included in the revision and 15 of them were selected in PubMed, 8 in CINAHL and 1 in Cochrane Library. Regarding the studies types, update studies were prevalent as well as quantitative non experimental one. Regarding the evidence level, 45,83% were classified in the level IV, 29,17% in the level VI and only 8,33% in the level I and II. Ninety three interventions were identified and organized in 11 thematic categories: general conducts, urinary catheter care, prevention of infection, nutrition and hydration care, return to the activities, hygiene care, care in the administration of medicines, teaching on signs and expected symptoms in the postoperative period, signs and symptoms of complication and conduct, exercises for pelvic musculature and care for the control of the pain. The supply of information to the patients by nursing team was the main focus of the authors of the descriptive studies. Thirty eight experts considered all of the interventions very appropriate to the situation", except an intervention related to the orientation of patients and family to phone the surgeon in case of strong pain inside the 24 hours after the surgery, which was considered "relatively appropriate to the situation". It was observed among the Brazilian experts the frequent concern with the relatives' inclusion in the preparation for the discharge of the patients undergone prostatectomy. After the validation by the experts, that resulted also in the reorganization of the interventions, it was obtained 84 interventions distributed in the 11 categories; 43 of those with evidence level IV, 36 with evidence level VI, 2 with evidence level I, 2 with evidence level III and 1 with evidence level II. To offer a group of validated nursing interventions for the discharge of the patients undergone prostatectomy can subsidize the elaboration of protocols and/or specific and individualized care plans, and thus, to favor nursing assistance and consequently the recovery and quality of life of these patients.

In the past few years, several studies based on constructional morphology to describe the mechanisms of construction of deverbal nouns, that is, nouns derived from verbs, using a synchronic perspective were carried out. The interest in this topic comes from the productivity of the construction mechanism of this type of noun. The impact in the Portuguese language, especially on its formal use, is not irrelevant. There aren't studies showing the variations of these mechanisms in Brazilian Portuguese (PB), much less, a diachronic perspective of him. We believe the current mechanisms be very similar with from XVI, XVII e VXIII. The suffix productivity and formation process can been suffering some kind of changing to specific words. The project Historical Dictionary of Brazilian Portuguese (DHPB) of centuries from XVI through XVIII, sponsored by the Programa Institutos do Milênio, and the construction of a corpus collected for this project, are, at the same time, a challenge and an opportunity to deepen the knowledge about this aspect of the Portuguese language. The analysis of this corpus gives us an opportunity to observe how these mechanisms evolved on the Portuguese language. However, there aren't yet tools that automate this type of research, enabling the morphologists to acquire this kind of data efficiently. The objective of this research was, first of all, to describe the different mechanisms of deverbal nouns construction in PB according to the SILEX morphological construction model (cf. Corbin 1987, 1991, 1997, Correia 1999, Rio-Torto (org.) 2004 and Rodrigues 2006). A second objective was the development of a computational system, named EXTRADEV, which allows easy access to the following data: (a) deverbal nouns (current and historic) with various morphological structures; and (b) graphical variants of nominal action (historic), to allow easier information retrieval. The methodology used on the construction of this system is grounded on: (i) description of deverbal nouns and computational rule‟s building about these; (ii) a pilot study of the fifty most frequent verbs of the DHPB project, extracted using UNITEX, and on the analysis of the graphical variations of these verbs; (iii) the knowledge of the Python programming language and regular expressions; and (iv) the use of the resources constructed for the DHPB project, such as a system of generation of graphical variants, SIACONF. We found 1,742,663 action deverbal instances and 15,633 distinct forms of the same without change of spelling. This number more variants extracted in the second module EXTRADEV, totalling 22,442 occurrences of deverbal history (6,809 variants and 15,633 deverbal no change in spelling). We followed some criteria analysis: frequency data, analysis about deverbal form based on in etymoly and history dictionaries and the last criteria was based on the observation of the final list of historical deverbal. With this study, we aim to increase the knowledge of the diachronic variations of deverbal nouns and to motivate the joint linguistics and computer science contribution, particularly the one made by the natural language processing area, to empower future studies about the Portuguese language.

Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), an endotoxin derived from gram-negative bacteria wall, triggers a conjunct of systemic and behavioral responses grouped under the name of sickness behavior. Several works show the inhibition of ingestive behavior in animals with activated immune system by systemic LPS. The aim of this work was demonstrate that LPS inhibit sodium appetite in lower doses than those that cause lethal effects and that LPS inhibitory action on sodium appetite involves α2 adrenergic mechanisms. Were produced three works where we show the LPS effects on sodium appetite, on arterial pressure and in different kinds of thirst. In the first work, we showed that LPS inhibited sodium appetite and only higher doses produced thirst inhibition, besides reduced urinary volume and natriuresis, without alterations on cardiovascular parameters in FURO/CAP-treated rats. LPS abolished intracellular thirst e reduced urinary volume and natriuresis in 2M NaCl gavage-treated animals. LPS also reduced thirst in FURO-treated animals. These results suggest that LPS has a preferential effect on sodium appetite and on thirst intracellular thirst. In the second work we showed that LPS reduce sodium appetite and that this inhibition is abolished by previous treatment with yohimbine ip, an α2 adrenoceptor antagonist in sodium depleted rats. Yohimbine when combined with LPS produced hypotension in sodium depleted rats. LPS reduced gastric empty in sodium depleted rats and this effect wasn‟t abolished by previous treatment with yohimbine. The systemic effects do not explain the inhibition on sodium appetite and we can suggest that LPS exert an inhibitory effect on sodium appetite probably mediated by central α2 adrenoceptors. In the third work we confirmed that LPS inhibit sodium appetite and that central α2 adrenergic ways mediated this response because RX-821002, an α2 adrenoceptor antagonist injected icv, abolished sodium appetite inhibition induced by systemic LPS in sodium depleted rats without produced alterations in cardiovascular parameters. All results exposed with these three works suggest that LPS inhibit sodium appetite and this inhibition is mediated by central α2 adrenoceptors.

The theme of education in museums and science centers is still not present in initial training of science teachers. As the school context, the out-of-school spaces can also contribute to teacher training, especially for those students that are working in the mediation of scientific exhibitions during undergraduate studies. This work focuses on this theme by the study of knowledges mobilized by future teachers when the mediation activity in a science center and the possible relations between teacher knowledges (TARDIF, 2002) and human mediation knowledges in science centers (QUEIROZ et al., 2002) and the contributions of experience in museums for science teachers training. Semi-structured interviews and observations of visitor-mediator interactions integrated data collection, developed with six undergraduate students that are mediators, components of the Scientific Exhibition mediation team of Center for Scientific and Cultural Dissemination (CDCC) and the Interactive Space of Center for Structural and Molecular Biotechnology (CBME), both linked to the University of São Paulo, in São Carlos city. This is a qualitative research, and the empirical material was subjected to discursive textual analysis process. Four categories were outlined from the analysis of empirical data: (i) training in undergraduate course to act in the science center, (ii) views on education in museums and science centers, (iii) the human mediation knowledges and (iv) contributions to undergraduate teachers training. The results suggest that skills and abilities, characteristics of mediation activity have been expressed by different elements built by mediators to deal with unpredictable situations that occur in their practice, validating them as potential tools for science teachers training. It was found that these mediators, future teachers, play their role in museum mobilizing theoretical elements previously studied in undergraduate courses and making use of creativity in working with new situations, always present because of the unpredictability of mediations in museums and science centers. The possible implications of this research includes the links between education in museums and science centers and teachers training as well the ways that this subject can be worked in initial teachers training, including a partnership museum/school/university.

In late 90 s, in the State of São Paulo, proposals for reforms and decentralisation of FEBEM were presented and consolidated. In the course of restructuring public policies, the institution acquired the denomination: Fundação Centro de Atendimento Socioeducativo ao Adolescente FUNDAÇÃO CASA (Foundation Centre of Socio-educational Service for Adolescents). This research intends to describe, analyse and understand the restructuring process of the socio-educational system in order to contribute to the discussions and reflections about the modifications of the policies of the educational service to adolescents who commit criminal offences. Considering documentation analyses (period 1996-2009), the studies of researches about the topic and the theoretical approach adopted about the trends of control and punishment that emerges in contemporary society, total institutions and socioeducation, it is possible to indicate that the process of restructuring and amplification through which the institution undergoes must be understood out of a number of factors such as socio-political transformations, social-control, socio-educative proposal and the internal dynamics of the institution. Although the legislation determines the reduction of the confinement, the institutional reconfiguration and the increase of imprisonment of youth can be seen. Therefore, instead of a disruption in the institutionalization process and in the punitive aspects, what actually occurs is the displacement of the youth to a system that tends to legitimise their action, having as its base the main prerogatives of the child and adolescent s rights. The restructuring process, still in course, has not yet promoted practices of socioeducative service that comprehend different educative processes as well as social relationship, using as reference the values and principles of the constitution regarding the respect to human dignity.

Polymer profiles extrusion shows some peculiarity due to the flow behavior of these materials during the processing. On the other hand, the profile die design and tooling has been more a result of professional s expertise than an engineering project in essence. In the present work, it was aimed to combining concepts of computer s aided engineering to rheological behavior of wood thermoplastic composites on profile die design. The prepared formulation where comprised of 60%wt HDPE, with and without a coupling agent, compounded with up to 40%wt wood flour and lubricant. Rheological properties in capillary and oscillatory rheometry were investigated. Due to experimental difficulties found in such rheometry methods when large particle size fillers are present or in highly loaded systems, a systematic approach for data collecting from a torque rheometer was evaluated, together with a mathematical model for power law parameters evaluation, where the results has been found in agreement to the data of capillary and oscillatory rheometry for neat polymers. For the composites, the results of torque and capillary rheometry virtually coincide, but the viscosities are lower than those measured in oscillatory rheometry. Simulation software was employed both in the die design and experimental data explanation. A cooled land die attached to a single screw extruder was employed for profile extrusion. Once steady extrusion conditions were achieved, temperature, pressure and linear output were monitored and profile s samples were cut for mechanical properties evaluation in flexural mode. The results shown that linear output and profile s properties were influenced by a combination of factors associated to composite formulation, processing conditions and die cooling. The optimum processing conditions for uniform profile extrusion could be reproduced by computer simulation.

Violence dwells in human societies ever since the first groupings one knows of. It is argued, in this sense, that violence has been reproduced through the civilizing process. This is the premise we depart from in order to identify an element that might participate in the process of reproduction of violence. We chose 5th Grade History books as the object of research. The essence of a historic fact cannot be changed, but the ways one approaches and presents it are quite variable. We focus our attention, therefore, on ways of approaching historic themes and facts. The theoretical background is that of Psychoanalysis. Freud considers that the subject is evil by nature, a fact that constitutes one of the major barriers to social life. Such ideas are based on the theory of drives, which, according to Freud, explains the social and individual life. This is the model that informs the comparison we made between the concepts of culture and individual theorized by Freud and the models of culture and individual in the didactic books. We noticed that the History didactic books use the resources of projection (in the Psychoanalytical sense) and euphemism to soften violence in History. They are ultimately an element that both socializes and trivializes violence.

The central issue of this investigation was to identify the factors which may contribute to the occurrence of work accidents in the use of pesticides. In order to do so, a qualitative form of approach was adopted, involving action research as well as bibliographic research related to the pesticide topics, including aspects such as the origin of these products, their introduction in Brazil, their risks to the human health and the protection measures. Bibliography concerning the area of ergonomics was also used as a base for the ergonomic analysis of work (AET). The use of this methodology made possible to answer the questions posed when in the field research with three families of agricultural workers legally settled in the Assentamento Guapirama, located in the municipality of Campo Novo do Parecis-MT, where the process of soybean cultivation was followed due to its intense use of pesticides. The data resulted from the in loco observation made evident the workers total lack of prepare when dealing with these products. This is a result of the absence of orientation for its correct manipulation, since the institutions that have contact with these agricultural workers omit the hazards or only mention the benefits, which contributes to the lack of information about the risks they are exposed to in their work, so they repeat the behavior adopted in the past. Facing the situation observed, it was verified that the facts which lead to the possible pesticide intoxication go beyond the behavior of the agricultural labourers in their work activity.

The objectives of this study are to identify the supply chain management practices that have been adopted in companies of the eletroelectronic sector in Brazil and verify whether these companies production competitive priorities are related to the supply chain management practices. An empirical quantitative research was carried out through a survey using a multiple choice questionnaire and the Likert scale. The questionnaire was sent to managers of eletroelectronic sector companies associated to the Brazilian Electrical and Electronics Industry Association ABINEE. Statistical techniques were employed to analyze the relationship between the competitive priorities and supply chain management practices considering the influence of factors such as the company size and its position in supply chains of major interest. The major findings of this research were: (a) the most frequently adopted supply chain management practices are feedback from final customers on product suitability, identification of customer future needs, integration of product development activities with the suppliers, contribution of suppliers towards demand forecast, search for customer opinions about new products, and integration of product development activities with the clients; (b) the supply chain management practices are influenced by the size of the company since the bigger the company, the more supply chain management practices are adopted, and (c) there is low correlation between the variables of the construct competitive priorities and the variables of the construct supply chain management practices. This is due to the fact that most part of the sample is not focused on its supply chain.

Fractures of delayed consolidation and fractures with non-union are commonly found in medical practice and are associated with high morbidity and mortality. Within this context, biochemical and biophysical resource have been studied in an attempt enhance bone healing. Among these may be highlighted the use of bioactive materials and low level laser therapy (LLLT). Several studies suggest that both resources are able to stimulate proliferation of osteoblasts and osteogenesis at the fracture site, promoting a greater deposition of bone mass and accelerating the process of consolidation. So the main purpose of the present work was to evaluate the effects of low-intensity laser (λ = 830nm), with fluencies of 60J/cm² and 120J/cm² and a bioactive ceramic, Biosilicato®, used alone or associated on bone consolidation of the tibial fractures in healthy rats. For the study 60 male Wistar rats were randomly divided in 6 groups: group bone defect control (GCF); group bone defect irradiated with LLLT, at 60 J/cm2 (GL60); group bone defect irradiated with LLLT, at 120 J/cm2 (GL120); group bone defect filled with Biosilicate® (GB); group bone defect filled with Biosilicate® , irradiated with LLLT, at 60 J/cm2 (GB60); and group bone defect filled with Biosilicate®, irradiated with LLLT, at 120 J/cm2 (GB120). A low-energy GaAlAs 830nm, CW, 100 mW, 60 and 120 J.cm² was used in this study. The rats were anesthetized by intraperitoneal injection of ketamine and xylazine 2% and a standardized 2.0-mm-diameter bone defect was created by using a motorized drill under copious irrigation with saline solution. Laser irradiation was initiated immediately after the surgery procedure and it was performed every 48 h for 14 days. After 14 day post-surgery, biomechanical analysis revealed no statistical differences between experimental groups. However, the morphological and morphometric analysis showed that the laser, in the two fluencies evaluated showed values statistically higher than control group and the Biosilicate®. Interestingly, the groups treated with Biosilicate® and laser, in two fluencies, showed statistically lower values of newly formed bone in the area of the defect even when compared with the control group. The scanning electron microscopy showed an intense presence of the biomaterial in bone defects of their animals. From the results obtained in this study, we concluded that the low-intensity laser was more effective in the process of bone repair when compared with biomaterial or the two resources associated.

In the context of construction companies, in general, planning is understood as the task of generating a plan and not as a management process. In most cases, the control is focused on management contracts, than in production. Also, note that these companies do not specify the manner in which they can develop and implement systems for planning and production control. Therefore, in order to assist in the understanding of production management, as well as the cost data, this paper deals with the reflection of Integrated Planning and Control the Cost of Production with the cash flow of the work from the budget pre-prepared and information regarding the process in this phase. Based on financial projections, or outflow of funds in cash flow are obtained parameters for administration of the work. We studied three construction companies that use different strategies and administrative management tools. This paper proposes the end the generic representation of the flow of information relating to the process studied. Thus, this analysis constitutes a contribution can provide agility, formality and support the decision-making to managers.

According to researchers, adolescence has been considered a risk age group for various mental health problems, such as: depression, behavioral problems and substance abuse. However, only a few Brazilian studies investigate mental health problems among young offenders, although the international literature agrees on the fact that juvenile offenders suffer from various mental health problems. Besides mental health, studies indicate that self-esteem, social support and parenting can also affect adolescents behavior and development. The aim of the present study was to identify the profile of male young offenders in treatment and also to identify correlations between levels of mental health, self-esteem, social support and parenting and correlations between these elements and other profile variables, such as age, education levels, substance abuse, among others. Another objective was to identify the adolescents perception of themselves, their difficulties and positive characteristics, their help resources and plans for their future. Fifty adolescents took part in the study. They answered a semi-structured interview and completed the following instruments: Identification Questionnnaire; Young Offenders Profile; Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, Social Support Appraisals, Parenting Inventory and Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire. The scores were calculated according to each instrument. The Pearson Correlation Coefficient was used to identify possible correlations between the scores of these instruments and the Pearson Correlation Coefficient was used to verify possible correlations between the scores of the instruments and the adolescents profile variables. The interview analysis has been carried out through the Content Analysis. The main results indicated that most of the adolescents have low education levels and use marijuana, besides having friends who also use drugs. High selfesteem levels could be observed in this sample. Besides, it was possible to verify that levels of education, social support from teachers and positive parenting might be protection factors against vulnerable behavior, once it was possible to identify negative correlation between social support from teachers and use of cocaine and negative correlations between positive monitoring and recidivism and alcohol abuse, which indicates that the more the adolescents parents perform positive parenting, the lower the recidivism and alcohol abuse levels. We expect that this study can contribute to the planning and implementation of public actions aiming the treatment of young offenders.

Jaú´s region, in the center of the State of São Paulo, is home for a group of companies specialized in the production of women shoes. They are industries, studios or backstitch stands, raw material suppliers, machines and equipments, for the whole productive chain of the shoes industries, including the tanneries, responsible for the supply of the main raw material used: the leather. This structure allows the denomination of this area as Local Cluster, where several players, from public and private sectors, articulate themselves together seeking increase in productivity and competitiveness in the market sector. To best use these arrangements and to increase their efficiency of their actions, it is necessary the use of information and communication technologies that can optimize their processes and information flows, improving their competitiveness. In this context, this exploratory and descriptive research aimed to identify the paper of the Information and Communication Technology and its influence on the competitiveness of these companies based on some indicators like design, quality of the products, flexibility of the production, human resources, infrastructure and others. The collection of data was accomplished through interviews with the managers of a sample of these companies, using the interview instrument elaborated this research, following the appropriate ethical precepts. The results of the interviews indicated a disagreement on forms of management by the accounted companies, which leads to only 10% of them taking part on the Local Cluster. The remaining ones not only do not participate in the cluster, but also show no interest in getting involved in larger events, such as local, regional or national trade fairs, important for the competitiveness of these companies. It is critical for the survival and growth of the cluster a larger awareness of the importance of the junction of efforts by the companies, through a greater fulfillment of meetings, so that they may share problems and solutions and start seeing each other as partners, not rivals. The results obtained will be disseminated to companies and players in the region with a view to supporting the development of the Local Cluster.
