All management standards have requirements for different aspects of improvements on the personal level, family level, company level, in business and life. What is about national level and country level? Is it possible for today’s generations to learn history of nations and of civilizations? If it is — ok, let’s apply it on actual time and people to have less problems and difficulties — especially if is actual in field of risk management. Majority of people are occupied by today’s problems. They don’t consider past and future challenges. People from each country strive for better quality, better and cleaner environment, higher safety etc. historically and today. But could we remember: How did Genghis Khan conquer many regions and how was he defeated? How did Mayas and Aztecs die out? How were Native Americans in North America drastically reduced in numbers? How did the Roman Imperium vanish? How was the Ottoman Imperium established and how it vanished? How many people were killed in the wars in XX century, etc? In all these catastrophic changes risks were not considered in an adequate way. Requirements of risk management — Principles and guidelines — ISO 31000:2009 are very consultative. They could be used on country level, national level, regional level, continental and intercontinental level.

Resumo Doença celíaca (DC) consta de desordem inflamatória crônica autoimune, que desencadeia reação autoimune na região do intestino delgado. As modificações ocasionadas pela DC na mucosa do intestino delgado possuem reversibilidade, ao passo que orienta-se os pacientes a não ingerir mais alimentação que contenha o glúten. Deve ser adotada também como medida a averiguação das bulas dos remédios, no intuito de verificar se os mesmos contém traços de glúten em sua fórmula. Existem inúmeros pacientes assintomáticos, o que dificulta a determinação diagnóstica e sabe-se que caso não se proceda ao diagnóstico e ao tratamento da DC em tempo hábil pode haver complicações indesejáveis. O objetivo do presente artigo foi averiguar acerca das manifestações bucais ocorridas em pacientes doentes em decorrência da presença da DC. As principais manifestações orais da DC que podem ocorrer envolvem hipossalivação; glossites; defeitos de esmalte; úlceras aftosas recorrentes; estomatites; aftas; manchas por insuficiência ou por excesso de cálcio, dentre outras. O conhecimento e a conscientização prévia pelos cirurgiões dentistas acerca das repercussões bucais acarretadas pela possível presença da DC em seus pacientes é de fundamental importância para o aprimoramento diagnóstico e para a adoção de condutas odontológicas apropriadas. Palavras-chave: Doença Celíaca.

The purpose of this book is to tell the story of Israel’s nearest neighbors—not only discovering what the Bible has to say about them but also what we can know from archaeology, ancient inscriptions, and other sources. The Bible itself presents these neighbors in nuanced and conflicting ways; sometimes they are friends or even related to Israel at a family level, and sometimes they are enemies, spoken of as though they must die in order for Israel to live. We are left wondering how the biblical portrayal might have affected our thinking about these people as historical groups, on their own terms. How would an Aramaean have described her own religion? How would an Edomite have described conflict with Israel? This book explores both the biblical portrayal of the smaller groups surrounding Israel and what people can know about these groups through their own literature, archaeology, and other sources. By uncovering the identity of the Philistines as settlers along the coast at the same time that early Israel carved out their place in the land, for example, one can better understand the social turmoil and political maneuvering that lies just beneath the surface of the biblical narrative, and can see more clearly just how the authors of the Bible saw themselves in the face of others.

This chapter describes the taxonomy of Phoronida, a small group of exclusively marine invertebrates found in most of the world's oceans from the intertidal zone to about 400 metres depth. Phoronids are meroplanktonic with a planktonic larval stage usually less than 2 mm in length and a benthic adult whose length ranges from a few cm up to 50 cm. The chapter covers their life cycle, ecology, and general morphology. It includes a section that indicates the systematic placement of the taxon described within the tree of life, and lists the key marine representative illustrated in the chapter (usually to genus or family level). This section also provides information on the taxonomic authorities responsible for the classification adopted, recent changes which might have occurred, and lists relevant taxonomic sources.

This chapter describes the taxonomy of Polychaeta, an almost exclusively marine group of organisms belonging to the phylum Annelida. With over 10,000 species described worldwide, they represent one of the most abundant animal taxa in the marine environment. The chapter covers their life cycle, ecology, and general morphology. It includes a section that indicates the systematic placement of the taxon described within the tree of life, and lists the key marine representative illustrated in the chapter (usually to genus or family level). This section also provides information on the taxonomic authorities responsible for the classification adopted, recent changes which might have occurred, and lists relevant taxonomic sources.
