I stayed there for three nights and I was really satisfied with everything! Highlight: the breakfast! The only bad thing is that it's a little far from the metro station (about 10-minute walk). We were allowed to use the Spa and Fitness Centre for free and the Sky bar offered a great view and great coctails!

"Average Americans"?
3% of Americans buy a new vehicle each year.
Then only 3% of Americans currently have the opportunity to solve their own personal peak oil problem. But given time, the EV's will make their way into the used market, and then every American who buys both new or used cars will have the opportunity.

It looks like the NFL lockout is coming to a close after the owners ratified an agreement last night, but I hear sides are really far apart in the NBA. I think I have found the solution to the NBA lockout, though. Let's just get the players and owners to have a lock-in.
Yes, lock-ins are mostly a middle-school thing, but maybe the shoe fits here. Lock-ins are a lot of fun. Basically you get a bunch of people together in a building and they stay there for a night. The only one I remember participating in took place at an indoor sports facility. Unlimited batting cage tokens + intense personality = hands that look like shredded meat, evidently.
I'm not sure where they'd go, but maybe they could hang out in an arcade that features only "Magic vs. Bird." Maybe they could rent out Latrell Sprewell's house so that he can feed his kids—that was a concern of his some time ago, anyway. Maybe they could go to a big party barn and have face-painting and hide-the-revenue games. Maybe they could stay at St. John Arena and play a huge game of lockout knockout.
Are there colossal egos in play here? Sure. But I'm convinced that if you pump a little Rob Base through the speakers and have them together watch Chunk from Goonies do the Truffle Shuffle, everyone will be holding hands and singing "Kumbaya" afterward.
Admittedly, there may be a better way to settle a dispute than to lock both sides in the same building for an extended period of time. There are some logistical challenges with this idea, too. Who will do the valet parking? Who will go through the buffet line first? Who will pay since everyone seems to be so strapped for cash?
If we can't pull off the lock-in idea, maybe there really won't be an NBA season after all. I, for one, won't notice until playoff season rolls around in late September.

So you've achieved your goal of working as a medical secretary and you're earning a decent wage. Now you're ready to start working towards advancement. You could be earning more than you are. Read below for some tips on how to get ahead.
If you don't already have accreditation, you should get it. With formal proof of your skills, you will be in a much better position to demand a higher wage. Evening and weekend courses will allow you to work and study at the same time. There are also an increasing number of online options, which will save you the time and expense of commuting to a campus.
Don't feel obliged to stay with your current employer. You may be comfortable where you are, but after a few years you'll have learned everything you can from that job. Moving on to another office will give you the opportunity to learn new skills, since every employer does things a little differently. And with a letter of recommendation from your old boss, you'll be able to look for something that pays a bit more, too.
Professional Associations, like the American Society of Administrative Professionals (ASAP), offer opportunities to find new jobs, network with other professionals in your field, and participate in lifelong career training. Often what's taught through the local branch of your association will be more immediately relevant to you than the general topics covered in post-secondary institutions. Additionally, professional associations almost always have volunteer positions that will make your resume look very impressive.
Unions take all the work out of negotiating for a higher wage and better benefits. If you hear about a union forming in your field, consider supporting it. There are pros and cons to unionizing, of course. Unions may collect dues and require that their members purchase licenses to work, but the pros of unionizing usually outweigh the cons.
Sometimes we get so caught up in achieving our future advancement goals that we forget to pay attention to our present performance. Your first priority should be to make sure that you're doing the best job that you can do, every day. Any effort that you put into additional training or networking should come second.
This one may seem like it's too obvious to mention, but often people seem to think that it's somehow rude to ask for more money for doing the same job. But the fact is, the more experience you have in your field, the more valuable you are as a worker. If, after a year or more of consistently performing well, your boss doesn't think that you've proven yourself to be a more reliable (and therefore more valuable) worker than some new hire, then that may be just the cue you need to start looking for a new position.
We all need goals to work towards if we don't want to wind up in a rut. Set your sights high, and keep working towards your dream salary. You have opportunities all around you to advance, so grab one of them and achieve your career goals!

What does the future of law practice look like?
It will be user-friendly and accessible via bright and fresh retail shops with the ambiance of Apple stores. It will be data-driven, with litigators turning to enormous databases capable of predicting results and guiding strategy. It will have the charm of an assembly line that parcels work out across time zones and specialties in structured processes certain to warm the hearts of project managers. And it will be beautiful. Imagine strings of case citations rendered as computer-generated graphics as appealing to the eye as they are to the analytical mind.
These were among the compelling visions that emerged last week from a remarkable conference in Silicon Valley. Called ReinventLaw, the daylong meeting featured 40 speakers who described a series of digital, regulatory, and engineering changes that are redefining law as lawyers and their clients now know it.
Two young Michigan State University law professors, Daniel Martin Katz and Renee Newman Knake, organized the session, versions of which are scheduled for London in June and New York in November. At MSU Katz and Knake run the Reinvent Law program, which they call A Law Laboratory, a set of classes and experiments devoted to harnessing digital-age technology to the practice of law. This Kauffman Foundation-funded effort rests on a simple concept: We believe lawyers can change the world but to change the world we must first change ourselves.
The meeting was patterned after the famous TED conferences, forums for provocative ideas that have grown into an Internet sensation. With 400 or so lawyers, academics, vendors, technologists, and various Valley hangers-on crowded into the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, California, Katz declared what everyone now accepts as conventional wisdom: Theres a storm brewing, across the legal landscape.
What united the day were the convictions that ranged from, at worst, both Big and Small Law are broken, to, at best, the time has come to unleash the wonders of 21st century technology on an aging, expensive, and remote legal system. The day was one part idea exchange, one part trade show for new companies, and one part revival meeting. Whatever their other ideas, speaker after speaker expressed certainty about three things:
- Clients were either unhappy or unserved,
- The law itself could be seen as a massive, beautiful set of data ripe for reorganizing,
- And the answers to the crisis come in digital form.
The speakers presented in six- to 12-minute bursts, most of them accompanied by slide decks. The affect was casual (jeans, no power ties). But the ideas were serious.
Disruption will come to the U.S. legal market because its too big to ignore, said Ajaz Ahmed, a prominent British Internet promoter who operates legal365.com in collaboration with an English firm, Last Cawthra Feather in Yorkshire. The site provides online legal services to consumers and businesses, in a combination of do-it-yourself forms and lawyer-assisted work.
Richard Granat , who runs a company called DirectLaw that helps small firms deliver on-line legal services, also had disruption in mind. We have a moral issue about serving the American people, Granat told the audience. If the legal profession cant figure it out, we should deregulate the whole thing. Let capitalism work its magic. With that, the room burst into applause.

A taxi from the airport costs around 550 ZAR and takes approximately 45 minutes.
Further information and advice for travellers is available from South African Tourism.
Visa Information
To find out if you need a visa to visit South Africa, visit the South African Department of Home Affairs website which provides detailed information on South Africa's visa requirements. This provides information about which nationals require visas and which are exempt. Enquiries regarding South Africa visa information can also be obtained from South African missions in your home country, or the one nearest to you.
- For nationals of countries requiring visas, application of the visa must be made ahead of your departure as visas are not issued on arrival. The visas must be affixed in your passport and shown to immigration officials on landing. Applications must be made through South African diplomatic or consular representatives.
- To apply for a visa you'll be required to provide particular documentation to meet South Africa's visa requirements. These include:
- A passport valid for no less than 30 days after the expiry of the intended visit, and at least 1 unused page for entry/departure endorsements (sometimes referred to as the visa page).
- Payment of the prescribed fee, if applicable.
- A vaccination certificate, if required (travel through the yellow fever belts of Africa and South America requires inoculation)
- Statement and/or documentation confirming the purpose and duration of your visit.
- Two identity photographs (guidelines on website).
- Proof of financial means in the form of bank statements; salary advices; undertakings by your hosts in South Africa; bursaries; medical cover; or cash available, including credit cards or travelers' cheques.
- If travelling by air, a return or onward ticket; or proof of sufficient funds; or a cash deposit of equivalent value to an air ticket must be lodged.
Take care to request the correct duration of stay and type of visa. Also check on processing time so that there is no last-minute panic.
Visitors should also take care to check out Yellow Fever entry requirements.
Safety Precautions
South African safety precautions are not unlike those recommended when travelling to other countries and major cities. More common sense than hard and fast measures, safety precautions in South Africa mostly require vigilance on behalf of the traveller and sound travel preparation.
Important South African safety advice includes avoiding deserted areas at night; securing valuables such as photographic equipment and wallets on your person; and leaving expensive, flashy jewelery in your hotel safe while out and about.
Other safety precautions you may want to consider include:
- Locking valuables and luggage away in the car boot while travelling (never leave handbags or cameras on car seats)
- Being vigilant of your luggage and other belongings (never leave them unattended).
- Storing valuables in your hotel safe.
- Limit the amount of money you carry on your person. Also, don't accept offers of assistance at ATMs and keep your pin numbers secure.
- When using a credit card in restaurants, ask the waiter to bring a portable credit card machine to your table. Report stolen or lost cards immediately.
- Carry a current road map with you. If you're in any doubt about a place you wish to visit or how to get there, have a word with your hotel concierge first or contact the National Tourism Information and Safety Line on 083 123 2345 for assistance.

Tomatoes - I can't get enough of them. I grow most of my tomatoes in the greenhouse, as growing them outside increases the risk of them getting tomato blight. Sadly, tomato blight thrives in the warm, wet summers we've had recently.So far this year
This is the time of year when I go tomato crazy. Suddenly I've gone from eating relatively few tomatoes to buying punnet loads from the shops. There is no doubt that if you go for the British Grown logo on the front of the pack they taste 100
This has been the best year for tomatoes in recent memory. I crammed 14 tomato plants into my greenhouse border, ignoring the advice of several knowledgeable friends to plant a maximum of eight!We've been feasting on tomatoes for weeks, regularly
then the air was positively dripping. So, I'm amazed at just how little blight I've seen on tomatoes or potatoes.There was some blight on a few of the potato varieties I've been growing this year, but even then the brown patches on the leaves remained as tight
This year has been a good year for tomatoes, but also a good year for blight. Blight, Phytophthora infestans, is a fungal infection, spread by spores in water droplets. Affected tomatoes develop brown, sunken patches, which spread to the stems
already served me so well, I'm still picking tomatoes from the plants in it, together with the odd yellow (meant to be yellow, not yellow and wrinkly!) sweet pepper, and at this time of year it really is great to have some of your own more tender produce
tomatoes now feel icy to the touch when picked, but the plants are soldiering on. In previous years I have laid down my remaining outdoor tomato plants on a bed of straw, and covered them with a long cloche or a few layers of fleece. I like to ensure
be fascinating to monitor how long the soil could be left without affecting yields of crops such as tomatoes.Meanwhile, I think I'll just replace the top 20cm (8in), which will hopefully be sufficient for the tomatoes I'm about to plant...
Only a couple of weeks ago I was waxing lyrical about my very much loved greenhouse. There are still a few peppers and tomatoes hanging on in there, but as light levels get lower and days get frighteningly shorter, I finally got around to starting
I'm the proud owner of two whopping great carnivorous plants. One was a present to my son from his granddad, the other is a rescue plant (much like our rescue cat!).Right now my greenhouse is looking decidedly miserable. My pepper and tomato plants

UPDATE: Deadly smoke, lone exit blocked leads to 230 deaths in Brazilian night club
PORTO ALEGRE, Brazil (AP) — Flames raced through a crowded nightclub in southern Brazil early Sunday, killing more than 230 people as panicked partygoers gasped for breath in the smoke-filled air, stampeding toward a single exit partially blocked by those already dead. It appeared to be the world's deadliest nightclub fire in more than a decade.
Witnesses said a flare or firework lit by band members may have started the blaze in Santa Maria, a university city of about 225,000 people.
Television images showed smoke pouring out of the Kiss nightclub as shirtless young men who had attended a university party joined firefighters using axes and sledgehammers to pound at windows and walls to free those trapped inside.
Guido Pedroso Melo, commander of the city's fire department, told the O Globo newspaper that firefighters had a hard time getting inside the club because "there was a barrier of bodies blocking the entrance."
Teenagers sprinted from the scene desperately seeking help. Others carried injured and burned friends away in their arms.
"There was so much smoke and fire, it was complete panic, and it took a long time for people to get out, there were so many dead," survivor Luana Santos Silva told the Globo TV network.
The fire spread so fast inside the packed club that firefighters and ambulances could do little to stop it, Silva said.
Another survivor, Michele Pereira, told the Folha de S. Paulo newspaper that she was near the stage when members of the band lit flares that started the conflagration.
"The band that was onstage began to use flares and, suddenly, they stopped the show and pointed them upward," she said. "At that point, the ceiling caught fire. It was really weak, but in a matter of seconds it spread."
Guitarist Rodrigo Martins told Radio Gaucha that the band, Gurizada Fandangueira, started playing at 2:15 a.m. "and we had played around five songs when I looked up and noticed the roof was burning" Continued...
"It might have happened because of the Sputnik, the machine we use to create a luminous effect with sparks. It's harmless, we never had any trouble with it.
"When the fire started, a guard passed us a fire extinguisher, the singer tried to use it but it wasn't working"
He confirmed that accordion player Danilo Jacques, 28, died, while the five other members made it out safely.
Police Maj. Cleberson Braida Bastianello said by telephone that the toll had risen to 233 with the death of a hospitalized victim — he said earlier that the death toll was likely made worse because the nightclub appeared to have just one exit through which patrons could exit.
Officials counted 232 bodies that had been brought for identification to a gymnasium in Santa Maria, which is located at the southern tip of Brazil, near the borders with Argentina and Uruguay.
Federal Health Minister Alexandre Padhilha told a news conference that most of the 117 people treated in hospitals had been poisoned by gases they breathed during the fire. Only a few suffered serious burns, he said.
Brazil President Dilma Roussef arrived to visit the injured after cutting short her trip to a Latin American-European summit in Chile.
"It is a tragedy for all of us," Roussef said.
Most of the dead apparently were asphyxiated, according to Dr. Paulo Afonso Beltrame, a professor at the medical school of the Federal University of Santa Maria who went to the city's Caridade Hospital to help victims.
Beltrame said he was told the club had been filled far beyond its capacity during a party for students at the university's agronomy department. Continued...
Survivors, police and firefighters gave the same account of a band member setting the ceiling's soundproofing ablaze, he said.
"Large amounts of toxic smoke quickly filled the room, and I would say that at least 90 percent of the victims died of asphyxiation," Beltrame told The Associated Press by telephone.
"The toxic smoke made people lose their sense of direction so they were unable to find their way to the exit. At least 50 bodies were found inside a bathroom. Apparently they confused the bathroom door with the exit door."
In the hospital, the doctor "saw desperate friends and relatives walking and running down the corridors looking for information," he said, calling it "one of the saddest scenes I have ever witnessed."
Rodrigo Moura, identified by the newspaper Diario de Santa Maria as a security guard at the club, said it was at its maximum capacity of between 1,000 and 2,000, and partygoers were pushing and shoving to escape.
Santa Maria Mayor Cezar Schirmer declared a 30-day mourning period, and Tarso Genro, the governor of the southern state of Rio Grande do Sul, said officials were investigating the cause of the disaster.
The blaze was the deadliest in Brazil since at least 1961, when a fire that swept through a circus killed 503 people in Niteroi, Rio de Janeiro.
Sunday's fire also appeared to be the worst at a nightclub since December 2000, when a welding accident reportedly set off a fire at a club in Luoyang, China, killing 309.
In 2004, at least 194 people died in a fire at an overcrowded nightclub in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Seven members of a band were sentenced to prison for starting the flames.
Several years later, in December 2009, a blaze at the Lame Horse nightclub in Perm, Russia, killed 152 people after an indoor fireworks display ignited a plastic ceiling decorated with branches. Continued...
Similar circumstances led to a 2003 nightclub fire that killed 100 people in the United States. Pyrotechnics used as a stage prop by the 1980s rock band Great White set ablaze cheap soundproofing foam on the walls and ceiling of a Rhode Island music venue.
The band performing in Santa Maria, Gurizada Fandangueira, plays a driving mixture of local Brazilian country music styles. Guitarist Martin told Radio Gaucha the musicians are already seeing hostile messages.
"People on the social networks are saying we have to pay for what happened," he said. "I'm afraid there could be retaliation".
Sibaja reported from Brasilia. Associated Press Writer Stan Lehman and Bradley Brooks contributed to this report from Sao Paulo.

PEMBROKE — With the holiday season approaching, the chairman of COMtech's board of directors isn't optimistic that any new business development will take place at the financially struggling industrial park until after the beginning of the new year.
Ronnie Hunt also doubts any new businesses will be knocking on COMtech's door until the U.S. Congress and President Barack Obama come to an agreement over tax legislation.
On Wednesday, COMtech's board of directors met to develop an interim plan for operating the park in the absence of a permanent executive director. Ken Windley, a former Robeson County county manager and executive director of COMtech since January 2011, resigned last month to become the interim county manager in Gates County.
Hunt, at the request of COMtech board members, agreed to continue serving as interim executive director until the end of the year. He is receiving no pay for his service.
"I don't want the job permanently," he said. "I will serve until the end of the year and that is all."
Hunt had hoped that COMtech board members would come to Wednesday's meeting with some ideas on how to move the park forward until a new executive director is in place and the park can re-establish sound financial footing.
"No one had any ideas," said Hunt, who has repeatedly said that somehow COMtech's doors are going to remain open.
Hunt said that he believes after the beginning of the year enough money can be found to hire an executive director on a part-time basis. It's unlikely, he said, that money will be available to hire someone full-time.
According to Hunt, there was no discussion about the maintenance and security fees park tenants now pay being raised to generate additional revenue. The board last month authorized County Attorney Hal Kinlaw to start legal action necessary to collect maintenance and security fees from several tenants who have not been paying.
During Wednesday's brief meeting, the COMtech board also heard a presentation from Rick Meredith, a senior vice president with the The Hollingsworth Companies, a company hired to market COMtech. Hollingsworth is headquartered in Clinton, Tenn.
Meredith said that since a website marketing COMtech went live on Sept. 15, 38 companies have viewed information about the park. Two have asked for more details, he said.
Meredith said he considers the number of responses "good" for that amount of time.
He said that even though the country's economy has been sluggish, his company has been seeing "good activity" at sites in several states where it is involved in development projects.
Windley, when announcing his resignation, told the board of directors it was a result of his pay being chopped by two-thirds, from $90,000 to $30,000 a year, after the county Board of Commissioners cut $100,000 from COMtech's funding request for the current fiscal year.
COMtech began operating in January 2001. The park, consisting of more than 700 acres, is designed to provide homes to technology-focused businesses, industry, educational facilities and business incubators. According to Windley, there are about 30 businesses located at COMtech that employ more than 1,000 people.

Massive Stock Selloff Expected from Facebook Owners
By: Jay Dillon
Updated: November 14, 2012
Facebook Shares
Hundreds of millions of Facebook shares could hit the market Wednesday, when early employees and investors get a chance to sell about 800 million shares. Facebook's May 18th initial public offering included a "lockup" agreement that restricted some shareholders from selling for a certain period of time. This is the third of five lockup expirations, and by far the largest. The lockups are meant to help boost stock price by keeping stock supply scarce. But it hasn't worked. Facebook shares have lost nearly half their value since debuting at 38 dollars.
Decline in Texting
Could texting be going the way of the land line? Not yet, but according to one telecommunications analyst, text messaging is on the decline. For the first time in U.S. history, the number of monthly texts fell. Now, that's not saying much considering the average cell phone customer now sends 675 texts a month compared to the 700 they were sending earlier in the year. But apparently we're not communicating less, just finding cheaper ways to do it, according to analyst Chetan Sharma. He says more than half of the cell phones in the U-S are smartphones, so rather than texting, more of us are using apps like Skype, Google Voice and Facebook Messenger. Or getting text services built into our phones like Apple's iMessage and BlackBerry's Messenger.
Nexus 4
The much-anticipated smartphone from Google was released Tuesday morning and sold out within minutes! It was expected to be a hot seller after selling out in less than one hour in England. The phone is priced at $300 but does not require a contract.
Just one day after news broke that a man was making allegations that he carried on an underage relationship with the puppeteer behind Elmo, he's now recanting his story. The man, who's now 23, claimed he started a relationship with Kevin Clash when he was 16. Clash, who's 52, stated that was never the case, and that it was a relationship between two consenting adults. His accuser released a statement through his attorneys today acknowledging that was indeed the case. Clash says he's relieved the painful allegation has been put to rest. He had taken a leave of absence from "Sesame Street."
Papa John's
Customers nationwide have filed a $250 million class-action lawsuit because they say the popular pizza chain has sent out a half million unwanted spam texts. The messages offered pizza deals, but some customers said they got 15 or 16 of them in a row in the middle of the night. One of the plaintiffs said Papa John's never asked permission to text the advertisements, which was banned under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991. The plaintiffs are seeking $500 per text but could get up to $1,500 per text if the jury rules that Papa John's willfully broke the law. The company's corporate office says they were not involved because the lawsuit involves a small number of their franchisees.

10 Best-Performing S&P 500 Stocks of 2012
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- The top 10 performers on the benchmark S&P 500 so far this year include some of the worst stocks of 2011.
Sears(SHLD) , Bank of America(BAC) and Netflix(NFLX) are among those with the biggest increases in 2012, in contrast to last year, when they plunged between 55% and 61%.
The benchmark is up 12%, driven by an improvement in the U.S. economy and increased efforts to solve Europe's debt crisis. In addition, the potential for new monetary stimulus is still on the table based on Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke's speech last week.
With such a solid run in the first quarter of 2012, which came after a 11.4% increase in the S&P 500 in the last quarter of 2011, many investors are nervous that a pullback is in the cards. Sam Stovall, chief equity strategist at S&P Capital IQ, says the opposite is more likely.
"Since 1945, in the eight times the S&P 500 was up 10% or more in Q1, it gained another 3.3%, on average, in Q2," he says.

COLUMBIA — Union County Head Coach Steve Taneyhill found himself in a familiar place on Friday night when his Yellow Jackets secured a third round playoff win by defeating A.C. Flora 41-38.
Not only was he within a stone's throw from Williams Brice — his old stomping grounds — but by the end of the night, Taneyhill had brought his team one step closer to a championship, something else he's accustomed to.
He should also be comfortable on Friday night when Union County squares off with Daniel for the Upper State title a few miles down the road from Clemson University where he made himself at home during his days as signal caller for South Carolina.
As fate would have it, the Gamecocks will be in town for the annual Clemson/Carolina showdown next weekend.
"We're gonna be the big game before the little game on Saturday," Taneyhill declared.
Quarterback Keiston Smith sparked the Union County offense on Friday night, placing his team in championship contention.
He connected with Victor Ruth on a 75-yard touchdown pass in the first quarter and although the Falcons threatened on several occasions, Union County never relinquished the lead.
"The way we've played these last three games is a completely different team than our first 10," said Taneyhill. "I don't know who I was coaching three weeks ago but it wasn't this bunch."
A complete game summary will be in Tuesday's edition of The Union Daily Times.

The Three Marias (As Três Marias)
Director : Aluisio Abranches
Screenplay : Heitor Dalia & Wilson Freire
MPAA Rating : NR
Year of Release : 2003
Stars : Marieta Severo (Filomena Capadócio) Júlia Lemmertz (Maria Francisca), Luíza Mariani (Maria Pia), Maria Luisa Mendonça (Maria Rosa), Tuca Andrada (Cabo Tenório), Cassiano Carneiro (José Tranquilo), Enrique Díaz (Zé das Cobras), Taveira Júnior (Sertanejo), Fábio Limma (Arcanjo), Wagner Moura (Jesuíno Cruz)
Brazilian director Aluisio Abranches' The Three Marias (As Três Marias), his second feature film, begins in grisly fashion with the murder of the three men of the Capadócio family. The first two killings we don't witness, but we see the bloody aftermath: a father is disemboweled and hung by his own intestines and a son has his eyes and heart cut out. The third murder, of another son, we see enacted, as he is drawn out of a building by his vicious killers and then set on fire.
It's a bold beginning to a lavish, operatic film, one that has much more primal fury and passion than it has intelligence. Fueled by the ancient drives of revenge for revenge's sake—"an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth"—The Three Marias is short, sometimes clever, and always watchable, if ultimately hollow at its core. The widowed mother and wife of the murdered men is Filomena (Marieta Severo), and she takes the news of her slaughtered family to heart. With steely resolve, she commands that her three remaining daughters, Maria Francisca (Júlia Lemmertz), Maria Pia (Luíza Mariani), and Maria Rosa (Maria Luisa Mendonça), are not to cry over their loved ones—"I want mourning, not a flood," she says. Instead, she instructs each of them to go out into the Brazilian wilderness in search of a particular man whom they will use to exact their revenge on those who killed their father and brothers.
Thus, the heart of the story is the three quests, which begin with a clever widescreen shot of the three Marias driving side by side, and then splitting off into three directions in the desert. Each of the men is a notorious killer of sorts with a quirk: Zé das Cobras (Enrique Díaz) is an assassin who has refused to speak to a woman ever since he read the story of Adam and Eve, thus Maria Francisca can only communicate with him through another man, creating scenes of sheer absurdity as she sits across the table from him and has to have everything she or he says repeated by someone else. Maria Rosa must find a police officer named Cabo Tenório (Tuca Andrada), whom she must convince to break the law for her sake (he is also dying of rabies, having been bitten by a rabid dog). Finally, Maria Pia must spring the deliriously wicked serial killer Jesuíno Cruz (Wagner Moura), who calls himself "The Devil's Horse," from a maximum-security prison.
Each of the Maria's missions has its difficulties, and none of them turn out quite as they were intended. The same might be said of the film itself, which seems to be a soap opera at one point, a black comedy at another, and a horror film in-between. Its tonal unevenness is surely intended, as the simplicity of the storyline and its refusal to interrogate in any meaningful sense the nature of revenge leave it thirsty for something to make it stand out. Abranches and his cinematographer Marcelo Durst do a commendable job of filling in the film's narrative and thematic weaknesses with gorgeous imagery full of rich colors and fine compositions, but it's never quite enough to overcome its one-note obsession with getting even.
