Corrections

Posted Friday, Nov. 16, 2007, at 7:30 AM ET

In the Nov. 15 "War Stories," Fred Kaplan incorrectly stated that the State Department had successfully lobbied against a Senate resolution that would have increased the number of special immigration visas available to Iraqis. The bill passed and is pending in the House.

In the Nov. 13 "Explainer," Torie Bosch incorrectly stated that members of the military do not have to place their hands on their hearts during the national anthem. This rule only applies to members of the military when in uniform.

In the Nov. 10 "Today's Papers," Ben Whitford misspelled the name of former New York Police Commissioner Bernard Kerik.
