Filipinos mourned former President Corazon Aquino by displaying yellow ribbons and holding Masses as the nation prepared to bid farewell to the beloved democracy icon who swept away a dictator and fought off seven coup attempts.
Aquino, 76, died early Saturday after a yearlong battle with colon cancer, which had spread to other organs and left her bedridden since late June, her son, Sen. Benigno "Noynoy" Aquino III, said.

Writer-director John Hughes died today of a heart attack. He was 59.
Hughes scripted a series of smart funny teen comedies in the 1980s, including such favorites as Sixteen Candles, The Breakfast Club, and Ferris Bueller's Day Off. He probably had his biggest commercial success in 1990 by writing Home Alone. Unfortunately, his subsequent work had been copies of Home Alone.
