4. Bloomberg says one of Wendy Avila's colleagues is going to sue over her death:

Police are investigating the death yesterday of a Zelaya supporter who had been hospitalized for an asthma attack allegedly caused by tear gas at protests earlier this week, according to police spokesman Orlin Cerrato.

Supporters of Zelaya held a funeral for the woman, Wendy Avila, at labor union offices that have been the headquarters for protest organizers, according to protest leader Anarella Velez. Velez will file charges against police over the death, she said.

5. The supporters should consider not staying at their own homes for a while.

Without a doubt they can expect to be at the very least harrassed and threatened by the coup-controlled police force.

You might recall seeing, too, they have been forcibly drafting young men from the poorer parts of the population, of course not bothering any of the middle class lads. They have a new supply of untrained kids to assist them kicking down doors, now.

9. Sounds like Pinochetis are breaking off relations with Brazil.

The de facto government headed by former congress speaker Roberto Micheletti said relations with Brazil were 'broken' in reciprocity at Brazil having closed the Honduran embassy there.
