The lack of knowledge within the educational profession, related to physical activity and physical education, is jeopardizing the implementation of quality physical education at both elementary and secondary school levels. Despite the effort of the academic community to broaden the awareness of each concept, an alarming number of people within the educational profession still reference each term interchangeably (AAHPERD, 2008;Fishburne & Hickson, 2005). The purpose of the following paper is to re-examine the relationship between physical activity and physical education in an attempt to further progress the understanding of, and identify the appropriate function of, each within a teaching-learning environment. The paper will build on current literature involving the correlation between physical activity and physical education. Ultimately, by further clarifying the role of each, the paper can support every educator in the successful implementation of Daily Physical Activity (DPA) and a quality physical education program for every public school.

Oswaldo de Andrade's poem O Santeiro do Mangue (1991 [1950]) and Ruth Landes' ethnography City of Women (2006 [1947]) both highlight how African-Brazilian religions have maintained connections to sexual practices considered to be "perverse" by Christian moralities. The present article describes the presence of the orixás in today's brothels in Rio de Janeiro. We emphasize the use of Candomblé and Umbanda as counter-hegemonic forms of spirituality which protect women involved in the sale of sex and are used as symbolic languages criticizing a moral order that highlights female passivity. Through the language of the saints, that which cannot be said becomes public in Carioca brothels, highlighting agencies in a space nominally dominated by men.
