...Saving Seoul" [May 15], on the city's transformation into a greener urban environment: As a citizen of Seoul, I am so proud that we have reclaimed and cleaned up Cheonggyecheon stream, the centerpiece of the city's environmentally friendly future. Cheonggyecheon, Seoul Forest and Seoul Plaza are green oases where a Seoulite can take a break, as free as a bird. Seoul's welcoming green spaces set a new standard in the design of urban parks for all Asia. I hope other Asian metropolises will learn from Seoul's example. If you visit Seoul, please stop by the green...
...gait. Like the Abu Ghraib prison scandal before it, Haditha threatens to become one of the war's signature debacles, an alleged atrocity committed by a small group of service members that comes to symbolize the enterprise's larger costs.

Tap the right ear, and a song starts playing. Tap the left, and the music gets quieter...
...Well before the Budget, great hopes were held by the urgers. Maverick M.P.s, think tanks, business lobbyists, welfare groups and opinionaters shot out a stream of ideas for things to do with revenues swollen by the resources jackpot. A short list included tax cuts, for companies and individuals; more investment in skills development, education and research; increasing workforce participation and raising national savings; improving child-care arrangements; and modernizing infrastructure, especially broadband, roads, railways and ports. The government certainly delivered in some of these areas, but the programs were scattered and underfunded; they seemed like mere sops to the policy...
...sound version of its service for the living room. Like DVDs, some XM tracks are in 5.1 audio - that is, they contain separate sound for five speakers and a subwoofer. So XM has partnered with Yamaha and others, who have introduced audio receivers that decode XM's surround audio stream. I borrowed Yamaha's new RX-V659 ($550; yamaha.com/yec) and tuned to XM Pops, to test...
