...session (racing gets under way March 14 in Bahrain), but it gives you a good idea why F1 is one of the biggest sporting enterprises in the world - part medieval joust, part moon launch. The pennants bearing each team's coat of arms flap jauntily from trucks that house enough computing power to send a man into orbit. This mix of techno-dazzle and hometown pride helps explain why 40,000 fans turned out at Ricardo Tormo to watch a nonrace with no winner...

...movie is in a way an autobiography of each man-child responsible for it: Carroll and Burton. That may not matter to the kids who find this film much livelier than earlier versions and easier to warm to than the original. And is Burton's vision trippy enough to serve as a hallucinogenic blast? Go ask Alice...

But in the face of such awesome power, the death toll remained relatively low: 799 as of March 3. By contrast, more than 200,000 Haitians died as a result of a Jan. 12 quake that was very much weaker than the one in Chile...

The biggest threat to human life was once natural disasters. Now it is our own shortcomings. To walk through Chile's gleaming and unbroken capital is to learn that although earthquakes, when coupled with dire poverty, can do terrible harm, we have the capacity to mitigate...
