One of the most widely read books in modern times is Dale Carnegie’s How to Win Friends and Influence People. The popular self-help work offers advice on how to manage people and bring them around to your way of thinking. The influential figures of ancient history had no such manual to guide them, especially those leaders who ruled the world’s earliest civilizations. They had to learn on the job. What worked for an innovative female pharaoh in Egypt was not necessarily the secret to success for the first Roman emperor or a groundbreaking Chinese philosopher.

Brazil

Brazil is a leader in entrepreneurship*, with an estimated one in eight adults being “entrepreneurs.” Much of the business that occurs in Brazil is done by single businesspeople either selling their homemade goods or providing their services. Foreign entrepreneurship is a bit of a rarity in Brazil. It is simple for a local businessperson to open a business by, in most cases, circumventing the typical red tape* associated with starting a business. The regulatory boards are so poorly managed and so open to bribes* that local entrepreneurs can easily sneak by without following proper procedure. For foreign businesspeople it is much more difficult. Foreigners draw attention to themselves (by merely being foreigners) and therefore fall prey to greater scrutiny. It is imperative for the foreign businessperson to hire a good “despachante” or broker to handle their interactions with government officials.

The verb form in the clause “Foreigners draw attention to themselves” is incorrect because it should agree with “Foreigners” as a plural noun, and therefore should be “draws.”

BRAZIL JOINS GROWING LIST OF COUNTRIES BANNING CELLPHONES IN SCHOOLS

Despite questions about the effectiveness of such bans, Brazil is the latest to prohibit the devices amid concerns over impacts on learning and well-being.

A bill that bans students from using cellphones in schools was signed into law in Brazil on Monday, the latest example of lawmakers limiting young people’s use of personal technology in the classroom, amid growing concern about its effect on education and well-being.

Brazil’s Education Ministry said in a statement that the law “aims to safeguard the mental, physical and psychological health of children and adolescents.” The Brazilian President called it an example of “working together for the safety and better learning of our children and young people.”

The law prohibits all students in public and private elementary and secondary schools from using portable electronic devices throughout the school day, the ministry said, though it allows for their educational use and some other exceptions.

Brazil joins several countries that have banned the personal use of cellphones in schools — including the Netherlands, Italy for students up to the third year of middle school, and France for those under 15 — though there are questions as to whether phone bans are effective in achieving their aims.

Men fear thought as they fear nothing else on earth – more than ruin, more even than death. Thought is subversive and revolutionary, destructive and terrible; thought is merciless to privilege, established institutions, and comfortable habits; thought is anarchic and lawless, indifferent to authority, careless of the well-tried wisdom of the ages. Thought looks into the pit of hell and is not afraid.
