...settlement of poor farmers, when an unidentified assailant or assailants approached him on a motorcycle and opened fire. Souza's wife and her friend had biked ahead and turned when they heard the shots. Although they have no firm leads to go on, police are treating the case as murder. "I think it was because of his work," Nogueira da Silva told TIME in a telephone interview. "His work was dangerous, he dealt with land grabbers and these people always have pistoleiros. What he did was a high risk activity...
...people killed in Para in 2008 over land issues is almost half the national total and more than in any other state. The Ohio-born Stang, who was 63, was one of the highest profile victims of the conflicts. Two hit men were jailed for her murder and a powerful rancher who believed her activism was instrumental in his losing a parcel of land to small farmers, was found guilty of ordering her killing.

...Carrington family grew larger and crazier, as Alexis purred and Krystle pouted, as Blake surged from kidnapping to murder rap, Forsythe kept his hold on the viewers' belief and rooting interest. He knew that his job was to make the impossible sound plausible, and that not every actor has to be Brando. The craft can be sedative as well as stimulant. There's a place for the traditional performer - the audience's ordinary extraordinary surrogate, the one who explains to them the awful thing that just happened...
