Death Toll on Brazilian Nightclub Fire at 234
by Associated Press
posted Jan 29 2013 7:50PM
SANTA MARIA, Brazil (AP) - A state forensics department has raised the death toll from a nightclub fire in Brazil to 234 people.
Local authorities earlier said 231 people died in the blaze, but the Rio Grande do Sul state raised the number Tuesday to account for three additional victims whose names didn't appear on the original list.
One of the victims had originally been confused with another person with a similar name. Another was identified early Sunday but didn't appear on a previous list.
The blaze broke out early Sunday at a packed nightclub in Santa Maria, a college town of about 260,000 in southern Brazil. Police say early investigations point to pyrotechnics used by a band as the likely cause of the fire.
Most of the victims died from smoke inhalation. More than 122 injured people remain hospitalized.

Dr Rakesh Valotia, a practising allopath in Gorai, Borivli (W), is a doctor with a difference. Although an allopath by profession for over 13 years, Valotia advises a lot of his patients to switch to homoeopathy, ayurveda and yoga to cure chronic illnesses like asthma, skin infections and back ache. "My allopath friends may disagree with me, but of late I have found that many times for chronic diseases like asthma and skin problems, homoeopathy proves to be a better treatment", he says. "I suggest my patients practice simple yoga asanas to cure ailments like spondylitis and neck aches, and even for indigestion and gas", adds Valotia, who has learnt yoga as part of his PG diploma in holistic health from Apollo Hospital, Hyderabad. The Borivli-based doctor also advises his patients to join meditation classes at Tej Gyan Foundation at Yogi Nagar in Borivli; he is one of the tutors there. According to Valotia, ayurveda is a good preventive medical treatment for many common illnesses like indigestion and arthritis.
He says that with so many years of practice in Gorai, he has created a good rapport with his patients and whenever he advises them to shift to other branches of medicine like homoeopathy and ayurveda, they do so without any hesitation. "Several times I make attempts to find the root cause of a disease and end up finding out that the problems in the patient's family is the cause", said Valotia, an alumni of Topiwala National Medical College (Nair Hospital) of Byculla. Those visiting Valotia for counselling, find him to be friendlier than the other doctors around.
M Balakrishnan, a retired bank official from Gorai and a patient of Dr Valotia, says he and his family always find so much solace when they visit him. "We go only to Dr Valotia to get treatment, then be it for cold and cough or for typhoid. He asks his patients to go for a blood test and other diagnostic tests, only when they are absolutely necessary," said Balakirishnan. NK Sreedharan, another patient of Dr Valotia, said, "I am thankful to Dr Valotia, whose timely diagnosis of stroke saved my life".
Tips to manage your lifestyle better, according to Dr Valotia:
- Get moving
- Eat healthy food
- Maintain a healthy weight
- Keep your BP, sugar levels and cholesterol under control
- Manage stress

Of course, comics have their own antecedents: Mixing text and art goes back at least 3,000 years. Check out the massive Assyrian reliefs at the Met, celebrating the deeds of the king, with cuneiform script chiseled right across his stone imageancient word balloons proclaiming his greatness. Slightly less propagandistic was Gustave Doré's 19th-century illustrated Bible; more lively were his engravings for Dante's Divine Comedy. New Yorkers should be pleased (or will roll their eyes) to discover that artist Sandow Birk (May 26-June 25, PPOW Gallery, 555 West 25th Street, 212-647-1044) is closing his contemporary adaptation of that 700-year-old epic poem by locating "Paradiso" in our fair city. ("Inferno" was L.A., while San Francisco hosted "Purgatorio.") At the end of "Paradiso," Dante was allowed a glimpse of God; we only get to look at Birk's mural-size oil of an autumnal, strangely bucolic Apple, along with his updated takes on Doré's classic visions of the three canticles.
H.C. Westermann (April 28-June 4, Lennon, Weinberg Inc., 514 West 25th Street, 212-941-0012) took a different tack on the vernacular. A marine who served in the Pacific during World War II, Westermann is justly famous for his "Death Ships" series, with its evocations of the surreal cruelties of war. This exhibition is a collection of drawings, woodcuts, and watercolors focusing on his women: mother/sister/wife/vamp/angel/demon/virgin/whore, all executed with a brio and fearlessness prefiguring underground comics. If Thomas Pynchon had wanted an illustrator for V's maniacal sailors and their paramours, Westermann would've been his man.
And proving that Pop has an ever expanding half-life, Little Boy: The Arts of Japan's Exploding Subculture (April 8-July 24, Japan Society, 333 East 47th Street, 212-832-1155) name-checks the atomic bomb that incinerated Hiroshima. From the culture of cute exemplified by Hello Kitty to Mahomi Kunikata's cartoon painting of a little girl gorging on bloody meat, Japan's wildly popular anime and manga, by turns charming and dystopian, are becoming a global language. Takashi Murakami (maestro of "Superflat" paintings and those huge pneumatic eyeballs) curates this big group show, which he promises will traverse the contradictions within Japan's "unmoored, apolitical state." Of his own ostensibly cute characters, he has said, "I express hopelessness."
Nothing new there; the best Pop has always been serious business.
