Creative video-advertisement campaign in Sao Paulo puts a smile on your face


Sao Paulo is very famous for its transit issues. Thousand of cars cause dozens of kilometers of traffic jam every single day in town. Most of the drivers listen radio for hours, while they are stuck on the streets.

This video-advertisement [Portuguese] was published by a Brazilian company called Brastemp in São Paulo. They transmitted the same message on 11 different radio stations at the same time, asking for people to smile for the driver of the car on their side. It quickly became a contagious trend and everybody started to smiling to everyone. That was an admirable and creative way of input something good into the tough routine of many Paulistanos. Congratulations!

Museum brings an exhibition of famous Brazilian writer: Fernanda Young

The bride says YES
This project called "A Louca Debaixo do Branco" was conceived by Fernanda Young as a book-installation. The exhibition investigates the construction of a myth about love through the personification of a bride, the central character of her brand new novel. It's the tenth of her career.

The exhibition is hosted at the MIS (Museu da Imagem e do Som) and uses the figure of the bride to research about love. According to the author, "Only in love we are all the same. We are the same when we love, when we are abandoned, when we suffer, when we suspect we are giving up of love. "Dressed as a bride, Fernanda Young appears in images depicting pain, love, dislike and love of someone else.

"A Louca Debaixo do Branco" (The Mad Under the White) presents Fernanda's private collections, as well as texts, poems, embroidery, daily interaction between the public and the author via internet, videos, and much more.

About Fernanda Young
Fernanda is a writer, screenwriter and presenter. She is married, has 4 children and loves to write romances. It doesn't matter if are scripts, screenplays for TV or books, her subjects always revolve around romantic relationships.

Service
What: A Louca Debaixo do Branco
Where: MIS, Avenida Europa, 158
When: October 3rd to November 18th. Tuesdays and Wednesdays, from midday till 9 pm; Thursdays and Fridays, from midday till 8 pm; Sundays and Holidays, from 11 am till 7 pm.
Price: R$ 4 (Students pay half)

Do you like a hug? Every Monday you can get a free hug at Avenida Paulista. Find out how!


Every Monday, 5 to 10 people go to the Paulista
to hug anyone with arms wide open

The idea came from Rachel, the daughter of Chris Julian from Zoe. She found out about this international Free Hugs campaing on the internet on 2009 and decided to do the same in Sao Paulo. A group of Zoe went to Parque Ibirapuera and it was a hit. Since then, they do this every Monday night at Paulista Avenue with signs reading "Abracos". According to Chris, nearly 1,500,000 people walk Avenida Paulista everyday and the Zoe team intention is to share something simple and free. That's the purpose! It's worth a hug, doesn't it?

One more thing, after the hug sections, they often go to Starbucks for coffee and chat. And then head over to a Pizzeria for dinner.

What is Zoe?
Zoe is a different kind of evangelical church that offers meetings every Saturday night. One of their principles is going to people instead of just inviting them to join.

Service
What: Free Hugs @ Paulista Avenue
Where: Avenida Paulista, 1027 (in front of the Oi Store)
When: Every Monday from 6h30pm to 7pm

Mocidade Alegre is the winner of the Sao Paulo Carnival 2012 with theme honoring 100 years of Jorge Amado

[photo: sérgio castro/ae]
The Mocidade, champion of 2012, marched with 3,500 members, 25 wards and five floats
After a tremendous confusion in counting the votes of the jurors, the Independent Liga Independente das Escolas de Samba de São Paulo announced that the Mocidade Alegre is the winner of the Sao Paulo Carnival 2012. The decision came from the presidents of the Samba Schools, by 7 votes to 5. The Samba schools Camisa Verde e Branco and Pérola Negra were downgraded.

Big mess
Near the end of counting, when a single note 9.9 would be enough to give the title to the Mocidade Alegre, there was a invasion of a group of members of the samba schools (that weren't happy with the results). During the mess, a man could get the votes of the judges and tear them in front of everyone. There was no copy of the votes. Each of the ballot counting is done with banknote, with nine safety items and bar codes to prevent forgeries. Unfortunately, it was not enough.

Problem to decide the winner of the Carnival Sao Paulo 2012

[photo: daniel teixeira/ae]
One of the invasors of the stage
A representative of the suporters of a samba school could get the sheets with the notes and tear them up. The confusion was due to change of two jurors just before starting the investigation, which let some fans very angry.

The counting of the notes of the samba schools in São Paulo was halted, this Tuesday, February 21, after invasion of the members of associations to the stage. Members of various samba schools also stormed the stage.

The votes were torn, but according to the president of the Liga de Escolas de Samba de São Paulo (League of Samba Schools), there is the possibility of recovering the votes. If it's not possible, according to him, the results obtained until that very moment will become the final results and Mocidade Alegre will be the champion and Camisa Verde e Branco will drop.

Fire in the role
Some allegorical cars parked in the courtyard next to the Sambadrome was set on fire. Firefighters arrived quickly to control the situation, which launched a huge column of smoke. A car from the Samba School Pérola Negra was destroyed.
