There's been devastating floods in Venezuela leading to at least 25 deaths and many homeless by the mud slides.
According to reports, President Hugo Chávez invited the homeless to stay in the presidential palace until the government can resettle them.
"Chávez also visited the hillside slum of Antimano, in western Caracas, where he called on people to leave their homes to avoid the potential risks posed by more heavy rains.
"They told me that you did not want to leave until Chávez came. Well, here I am," he told residents."-Guardian
