Chilean miners: An article in the Sept. 5 Section A about trapped Chilean miners gave an incorrect spelling for the name of a survivor of the 1972 Andean plane crash who visited the site. His name is Gustavo Zerbino, not Servino.

Frittata recipe: In the Sept. 9 Food section, a recipe for prosciutto and onion frittata called for 2 tablespoons of grated Parmigiano-Reggiano but did not explain how they were to be used. They should be sprinkled over the frittata before broiling. The corrected recipe can be found online at latimes.com/prosciutto-frittata.

In fact, the legal limit for drivers under 21 is 0.01%, according to the California Department of Motor Vehicles.
