· A graphic with a Sept. 26 article about liquids that can be carried aboard U.S. commercial airliners contained incorrect information from the Transportation Security Administration. Air travelers are allowed to bring through security up to three ounces, not four, of eyedrops, saline solution, personal lubricants, and nonprescription liquid or gel medications. Medically necessary items that exceed three ounces must be declared and submitted for inspection by a security officer.

· On a map with the Sept. 26 Hidden in Plain View feature, Sudan was mislabeled as Egypt.

· A graphic with a Sept. 26 Health article about adherence to recommended medical regimens misstated a survey result. In 2002, about 71 percent, not 26 percent, of respondents with coronary artery disease reported consistently taking aspirin.

· A Sept. 25 article about interrogation policies incorrectly said that Alberto J. Mora had been the Navy's judge advocate general from 2001 until the end of 2005. Mora served as the Navy's general counsel.

· A Sept. 24 Travel article incorrectly said that Ferdinand Magellan may have been the first non-European to see Tierra del Fuego. Magellan was Portuguese.
