After breakneck growth in 2010, the Brazilian economy has slowed sharply. This week's issue of The Economist says there are still good opportunities in the country, but that the government must focus on addressing its structural weaknesses to take advantage of them. The issue also includes stories on the implementation of the free-trade agreement between Colombia and the United States, foreign businessmen in Cuba and countervailing trends in Mexico's drug war, as well as an obituary of Carlos Fuentes, a Mexican author.

Boyfriend of international big star Lin Chin-Sha share his privacy with you
There is a group of people in this world proclaim that I am the boyfriend of the international famous big star Lin Chin-Sha who is allegedly the most beautiful woman in Asia. They make all the people of the entire world pay attention to this romance and peek into my privacy，listen to my politic opinion. And they poison me using poisonous material，hurt my lung using ash，in order to force me to publicize remarks and opinions about international politics and ideology in favor of them.
Every person I met in the world help them poison me. Nobody in the entire world has sense of justice，nobody in the world criticize them for violating my privacy and forcing me to publicizing political remarks，nobody in the world criticize their violence. I cannot find a single person in the entire world who is good person.
Since there is no good person in the world，the death of human being is not worth sympathizing.
I don’t know the identification of those people who proclaim that I am the “boyfriend of international big star”. I don’t want to know，and I don’t need to know. Because everyone in the world is the same for virus to infect，no matter what their nationality or their political position are. Knowing them or not knowing them，the virus will infect them equally. The result is all the same. So there is no need to know who they are.
Since I am the boyfriend of international big movie star，since everyone in the world is interested in my privacy、remarks and secrets，so I would like to share with you my secrets and privacy---biological weapons. Let everyone in the world violate my privacy.
Please make my remarks and secrets known to entire world，satiate the curiosity of every person，make everyone in the world violate my privacy.
My remark is as following︰
Virus are divided into two categories：the virus with envelope membrane and virus without envelope membrane. The virus with envelope membrane will not kill its host cell while proliferating and separating from its host cell，and thus it will not cause disease symptom. On the other hand，the virus without envelope membrane will kill its host cell and cause disease symptom.
There are some proteins in the human cells which trigger and cause cancer，such as CPED4 protein.
If you choose a virus which has envelope membrane and powerful good infectious capability，make use of gene modification methods (using restriction enzyme to cut virus DNA and using polymerase enzyme to connect gene DNA from outer source to virus DNA) to add CPED4 gene or the like genes to the DNA or RNA sequence of virus you choose，then you will get a stealth invisible killer virus.
The virus thus made (with envelope membrane) will not kill its host cell，so the cell of infected person will not die，and no symptom will be presented. And the infected person will never know that he is infected，he will carry the virus to every place he goes and contact many people. So the virus will widespread to entire country in a short time. And the agency or institution of epidemic prevention or control will have no idea of the existence of such virus which had widespread to every corner of the nation.
Such stealth invisible killer virus (with envelope membrane) will not cause disease when infecting people，but it will produce CPED4 protein or the like proteins in the host human cells and make the cell turn into cancer cells. Within two years，the cancer cells widespread and grow，and the person die. The entire nation will be infected and entire population die.
Because of this reason，using such stealth invisible killer virus，you can wipe out entire population of enemy nation without being noticed. And the money cost of such virus weapons are extremely small comparing to other weapons.
The major task of people who make use of such virus is to give vaccine injections to your own people，this is more difficult to accomplish，the killer virus itself is easy to make.
