devastating earthquake at Yogyakarta, the capital of Central Java province,
Indonesia, Monday, May 29, 2006. The government lowered the official death toll
from Saturday's 6.3-magnitude quake on Java island from nearly 5,000 to 4,315,
after revising figures for the hard-hit district of Klaten. An estimated 200,000
people have been left homeless, most of whom are now living in shacks close to
their former homes or in shelters put up in rice fields. (AP)
