clarifications
>> According to Hawaiian Airlines, repairs to the runway in Pago Pago, American Samoa, were not completed on Sunday. Also, the air carrier is still considering a plans to use Apia in the nation of Samoa as an alternate airport. There were inaccuracies in a news brief that ran on Page C1 yesterday.>> An editorial Sunday incorrectly stated that Hawaii law and a Honolulu ordinance prohibit discrimination based on sexual orientation in employment, public accommodation, housing and union practices. While state law declares prohibition of sexual orientation discrimination in those areas to be "public policy," it specifically bans such discrimination only in employment practices. The city ordinance prohibits sexual orientation discrimination only in city employment.
