» The volunteer who saw Berani, a 245-pound tiger, enter a holding area behind the old tiger exhibit Thursday morning notified a zoo staffer who broadcast a "code red" alert via radios. A Page A5 article Saturday incorrectly reported that the volunteer broadcast the alert.
The online edition has been corrected.
» Jan I'i's first name was misspelled in a Page A5 story Sunday about a state proposal to expand preschool programs. Also, the plan would initially target 3-year-olds and at-risk children, not just 4-year-olds, as was reported. The estimated $10.5 million cost cited for the program's first year and $170.4 million in 10 years was based on a plan for 4-year-olds only. It is unclear how much it would cost to cover the additional children. The online edition has been corrected.
» The artwork on Page E6 Sunday labeled "Shooting Stars" was a photo illustration but should have credited the New York Times for the photo. The online edition has been corrected.
» U.S. Sen. Daniel Akaka voted "N" (no) on Senate Bill 2248, a bill that passed 68-29 "to extend the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act for six years and grant retroactive immunity to certain telecom companies." A graphic yesterday on Page A4 listed his vote as "Y" (yes). This story did not appear online.
CLARIFICATION
