'The @placeholder we knew went out of her way to help youngsters and actively discouraged them from drugs.’ | By Simon Parry PUBLISHED: 16:10 EST, 28 September 2013 | UPDATED: 12:29 EST, 13 November 2013 A former community policewoman facing execution for smuggling drugs into Indonesia has revealed how she tried to stop friends and family in Britain discovering she may face the firing squad. Speaking exclusively to The Mail on Sunday inside one of Indonesia’s toughest jails, Andrea Waldeck, 43, said she had been so appalled at her plight, she could not bear to let loved ones find out. Only close family members were told of her arrest and many friends only found out the truth when she appeared in court in Indonesia’s second largest city Surabaya last week, where prosecutors announced she faced a possible death penalty.

Real Madrid will be hoping to close the gap on @placeholder when they host Real Mallorca on Sunday. | (CNN) -- La Liga leaders Barcelona returned to winning ways with a 3-0 home victory over Racing Santander on Saturday, extending their advantage over second-placed rivals Real Madrid to seven points. After an impressive unbeaten run in all competitions, Barcelona suffered their first defeat in 28 games midweek, losing 3-1 to Spanish second division side Real Betis in the second leg of their Copa del Rey clash, but going through 6-3 on aggregate. But it had been 28 years since Racing Santander had won a league game at the Camp Nou and having also lost seven of their last 10 away league matches, never looked likely to get the better of the reigning Spanish champions.

@placeholder is an attempt to explore not only an object (comets) that we don't yet fully understand, but also reach backwards in time, like a detective, to piece together more about our origins. | (CNN) -- From the realms of science fiction to science fact, the Rosetta mission reached its climax this week when when the mission's scientists succeeded in landing a washing machine-sized probe named Philae on a moving comet after a 6.4 billion mile journey. It has been a decade-long chase around the solar system for the spacecraft to catch up with its constantly moving target, Churyumov-Gerasimenko -- better known as Comet 67P. For many who gaze dreamily at the stars above, this is one of the most exciting thing to happen in recent memory. But why should everyone else care? To answer this question, CNN has brought together five experts in space science to explain why the Rosetta mission is a monumental achievement.

At No 10 it’s Real Madrid and Barcelona’s first ever Clasico Spanish Cup final all the way back in 1936 in a game that took place a month before Civil War broke out Spain. Madrid took a two-goal lead but Barcelona came back strongly and only an incredible late save from Ricardo Zamora prevented a last-minute Barca equaliser.

Instead, federal authorities seem to be stepping into areas where the state attorney general's office hasn't gone. This time, they seem to be exploring the possibility of a cover-up at Penn State, as well as possible bribes, fraud, or misuse of federal money, according to three former federal prosecutors asked to independently review the subpoena Penn State received February 2.

"@placeholder remains a dear friend, and we both look forward to continuing our friendship. | (CNN) -- Roger Federer is having his worst season on the tennis tour since he became a grand slam champion. He suffered his earliest grand slam exit in a decade and has slipped to seventh in the world rankings. For the first time since 2002, he didn't reach a grand slam final. His coach, Paul Annacone, appears to have paid the price for the slump as Federer announced Saturday that he had cut ties with the American who used to work with 14-time major winner Pete Sampras and ex British No. 1 Tim Henman. Annacone's ties to Sampras and Henman contributed to Federer hiring him in the first place, since the 17-time grand slam winner is friends with both former players.
