1. If only someone could get help for the people in the embassy.

The faces of the cops in the photos show they are absolutely enjoying this power they have over everyone. The people shouldn't have to live like this, but in the end, they will prevail, anyway.

Thanks, Downwinder, and thanks to magbana for her hard work.

2. United Nations people in Tegu yesterday took some food to embassy

brief report in golpista media said hot dogs and soft drinks had been taken to the embassy. Said people in the embassy had not had anything to eat since Monday except for some cookies.

U.S. Embassy was also looking at ways to help out the people in the Brazilian Embassy.

So it appears that some food and water is getting in.

4. This is really good to hear. I'll bet the cookies came from snack machines.

Hope they can get food again. That could do so much for their spirits, feeling someone is trying to help.

Thanks for this news.

3. Golpistas have lifted the curfew

from 10 this morning to five this afternoon so people can buy food, medicines. Long lines reported at gasoline stations.



Ch. 36 director said station's frequency had been hacked and TV is off the air. This happened today.

Callers to Globo said at least six dead in clashes since yesterday.
