2010 report on human rights by Amnesty International
(The report for the Philippines is shown below. A more complete report for the country can be obtained from Karapatan's 2009 year-end report whose cover is shown to the right.) Japan Kuwait Under Death penalty: At least three people were sentenced to death for murder; no executions were reported. May Membriri Vecina, a Filipina domestic worker, returned to the Philippines in June following a pardon by the Amir. She had been sentenced to death in July 2007 after being convicted of murdering her employer’s youngest child. At her trial, she alleged that her employer had physically and mentally abused her, causing her to become mentally ill. Her sentence had been commuted to life imprisonment in June2008.

Correlations between clustered voting precinctsMakikita sa graph na ito kung gaano kapareho ang pagpili ng mga senador sa magkaibang lugar sa bansa. Base ito sa actual na bilang ng COMELEC. Labing-apat na clustered precincts lamang mula sa magkaibang rehiyon ang kinumpara. Ang ibig sabihin ng hugis na pinapakita sa graph ay ganito: ang senador na malakas sa precinct x ay malakas din sa precinct y. Ang bawat linya (trendline) ay sinadyang pinadaan sa origin na ang ibig sabihin ay kung zero ka sa precinct x ay malamang zero ka din sa precinct y, at mukhang ganito naman talaga ang trend. Heto ang paliwanag kung paano ginawa ang graph. I-plot ang porsyentong nakuha ng isang kandidato sa isang clustered na presinto versus sa porsyentong kanyang nakuha sa ibang clustered na presinto. Gawin ito sa lahat ng kandidato sa pagkasenador sa parehong dalawang presinto para makumpara ang pagboto sa dalawang presinto na ito. Kalkulahin ang slope ng best-fit line at coefficient of determination para sa plot na ito. Gawin ito sa iba pang pares ng clustered na presinto. Heto naman ang mga clustered na presintong (CP) kinumpara sa plot sa taas. Manual random lang ang pagpili sa mga presintong ito mula sa iba't ibang rehiyon: BONUS
