How to dig out from the information avalanche
Majority of workers feel overwhelmed by deluge of data, survey finds
By Eve Tahmincioglu
updated 8:18 p.m. ET March 16, 2008
Don’t expect Shaun Osher, the CEO of Core Group
Marketing in New York, to answer your e-mail right away.
He has stopped responding to e-mails every minute and
only checks his e-mail account twice a day. He also started
5 turning off his BlackBerry during meetings.
This tactic has made him so much more productive
that earlier this year he held a meeting with his staff of 50
and “strongly suggested” that they stop relying so heavily
on e-mail and actually start calling clients on the phone.
10 And, he requested his employees put cell phones and
PDAs on silent mode during meetings, as well as curtail
the common practice of cc-ing everybody when sending
out an e-mail. “There was so much redundancy, so much
unnecessary work,” he explains. “One person could handle
15 an issue that should take two minutes, but when an email
goes out and five people get cc-ed, then everybody
responds to it and there’s a snowball effect.”
It’s not that Osher has anything against technology. In
fact, he loves it. The problem is, last year he realized he
20 was inundated with so many e-mails and so much
information in general that he began to experience data
overload. “In the beginning, e-mail and all this data was a
great phenomenon, revolutionizing what we do. But the
pendulum has swung way too much to the other side,” he
25 maintains. “We’re less productive.”
Osher isn’t the only one out there under a data
avalanche. Thanks to technological innovations, you can
be talking to a customer on your cell phone, answering a
LinkedIn invitation on your laptop, and responding to email
30 on your PDA all at the same time. Besides, during
tough economic times, who will want to miss any
information when your job could be on the line if you indulge
in the luxury of being offline? Turns out, seven out of 10
office workers in the United States feel overwhelmed by
35 information in the workplace, and more than two in five
say they are headed for a data “breaking point,” according
to a recently released Workplace Productivity Survey.
Mike Walsh, CEO of LexisNexis U.S. Legal Markets,
says there are a host of reasons we’re all on the information
40 brink: “exponential growth of the size of the information
‘haystack,’ the immensity and immediacy of digital
communications, and the fact that professionals are not
being provided with sufficient tools and training to help
them keep pace with the growing information burden.”
45 ___ Ellen Kossek, a professor from Michigan State, believes
we are less productive in this age of 24-7 technology, and
our multitasking mentality has spawned a “not-mentallypresent”
society. “We’re becoming an attention-deficit
disorder society switching back and forth like crazy,”
50 Kossek says. “We’re connected all the time. We’re
working on planes, in coffee shops, working on the
weekends. Work is very seductive, but yet we’re actually
less effective.”
The key to getting your head above the data flood,
55 according to workplace experts, is managing and reducing
the information you’re bombarded with.

Os 17 anos da Lei Maria da Penha foram lembrados em sessão especial no Plenário do Senado. A Lei nº 11.340/2006 classifica os tipos de violência, desde a física e sexual, passando pelos abusos psicológico, sexual e patrimonial. Em caso de violência doméstica e familiar, o agressor poderá ser afastado do lar e, em caso de prisão, fica sem direito à liberdade provisória. Medidas protetivas descumpridas poderão acarretar pena de até dois anos de prisão.

Tal legislação que representa o marco do enfrentamento do Brasil à violência contra a mulher. A “Lei Maria da Penha” é o principal instrumento legal de coibição à violência contra as mulheres, sendo sancionada em 2006 e, além de focar em punição à agressores, dá ênfase na prevenção e proteção às vítimas. Em relação a essa normativa e à sua repercussão, podemos afirmar corretamente que:

Na sociedade brasileira, apesar de absurdas, as diferenças sociais entre brancos e negros são nítidas no cotidiano. Além do aspecto econômico, é evidente o desequilíbrio na garantia de direitos, entre outros aspectos. Nesse contexto, algumas medidas visando diminuir tais discrepâncias existem, tais como:
Rompimento repentino do vínculo escolar aconteceu 15 dias após a matrícula da criança. Segundo o juiz, a atitude da escola estaria fomentando uma discriminação velada da menor. Uma escola foi condenada pela Justiça a indenizar em R$ 7 mil a mãe de uma criança que foi expulsa 15 dias após ser matriculada por ser autista. Segundo o juiz, relatos do diretor da escola e de uma professora no processo serviram como uma “confissão” de que, após a matrícula, eles teriam sido “surpreendidos pela gravidade” do quadro da criança para o qual “não tinham preparo técnico e decidiram pelo rompimento do vínculo escolar”.

Atualmente, no Brasil, de acordo com a legislação vigente:
Incêndios no Parque Estadual Encontro das Águas afetaram mais de 21 mil hectares; bombeiros usam aviões para combater o fogo. Com as queimadas no Pantanal se intensificando no segundo semestre, o Parque Estadual Encontro das Águas, localizado no Mato Grosso e considerado como a região com maior concentração de onças-pintadas do mundo, registra seu segundo pior ano de queimadas desde 2013. Segundo o Lasa, 20,18% da área do parque foi afetada por queimadas com base nos alertas de incêndio detectados por satélites. No total, são 21.825 hectares – a terceira maior marca desde o início do monitoramento, em 2012. Em 2013, foi registrado o até então segundo pior ano, com 255 mil hectares. Como ainda estamos em outubro, a possibilidade é que o acumulado de 2023 supere o de 2013.
