A presente pesquisa teve como problema identificar como ocorreu a inclusão das temáticas de gênero e sexualidade na legislação educacional nos últimos anos e de que forma estas questões foram discutidas pelos parlamentares no congresso nacional. A análise foi feita com base na menção à gênero e sexualidade nas resoluções que compõe o documento. Foram investigados os debates referentes à “ideologia de gênero” na câmara dos deputados, bem como discursos favoráveis e contrários ao tema no período de janeiro de 2010 à dezembro de 2015. A partir dos discursos, foram também objetos de análise o número de deputados que se manifestaram, seus respectivos partidos e estado...
Ethical Fundraising: A Guide for Nonprofit Boards and Fundraisers is a practical, helpful, and ultimately inspiring resource for nonprofits large and small, young and mature, local and international. The insightful guidance and case studies found within these pages will help you understand how to address specific ethical issues within your nonprofit and leave plenty of food for thought and discussion.
A new framework for helping nonprofit organizations maximize the effectiveness of their boards. Written by noted consultants and researchers attuned to the needs of practitioners, Governance as Leadership redefines nonprofit governance. It provides a powerful framework for a new covenant between trustees and executives: more macrogovernance in exchange for less micromanagement. Informed by theories that have transformed the practice of organizational leadership, this book sheds new light on the traditional fiduciary and strategic work of the board and introduces a critical third dimension of effective trusteeship: generative governance. It serves boards as both a resource of fresh approaches...

Network flow theory has been used across a number of disciplines, including theoretical computer science, operations research, and discrete math, to model not only problems in the transportation of goods and information, but also a wide range of applications from image segmentation problems in computer vision to deciding when a baseball team has been eliminated from contention. This graduate text and reference presents a succinct, unified view of a wide variety of efficient combinatorial algorithms for network flow problems, including many results not found in other books. It covers maximum flows, minimum-cost flows, generalized flows, multicommodity flows, and global minimum cuts and also presents recent work on computing electrical flows along with recent applications of these flows to classical problems in network flow theory.
Mathematics of Computing -- Parallelism.
This is a unified, tutorial description of the most widely used models of parallel computation and their application to problems in computational geometry. Each chapter offers an in-depth analysis of a problem in computational geometry and presents parallel algorithms to solve them. Comparative tables summarize the various algorithms developed to solve each problem. A wide range of models of parallel computation to develop the algorithms - parallel random access machine (PRAM) - are considered, as well as several networks for interconnecting processors on a parallel computer.
"Indian Names in Michigan traces the origin of hundreds of place-names given to counties, towns, lakes, rivers, and topographical features of the Great Lakes State. These melodic names that enrich our appreciation for the romantic past of our state record the culture and history of both the American Indian and the white settler. Most of the Indian names borne by Michigan's cities, counties, lakes, and rivers are those of Indian tribes and individuals. Settlers named places not only fro the resident tribes, but also for tribes in the West that they had never seen. Indian Names in Michigan is written for all local history enthusiasts and anyone interested in Indian history and culture"--Back cover.
Originally published in 1964 by the Smithsonian Institution’s Bureau of American Ethnology, this book is a compilation of the ethnographic data on the seventeenth-century Huron Indians contained in The Jesuit Relations and in the writings of Samuel de Champlain and Gabriel Sagard. This study of the Hurons, who lived in the present province of Ontario, Canada, spans the period from 1615 to 1649, when they were defeated and dispersed by the Iroquois. Topics covered include dress, modes of travel, trade, war, sociopolitical organization, subsistence activities, and religious beliefs and practices. The book is invaluable for indicating the cultural similarities and differences between the Hurons and the neighboring Northern Iroquoian cultures and for documenting evidence of cultural change. This first paperback edition also includes a new introduction by the author, in which she brings her work up to date by surveying developments in the study of the Huron ethnography between 1964 and the present.
