» The federal tax filing deadline this year is midnight tonight because April 15 fell on Sunday and yesterday was Emancipation Day, a legal holiday in Washington, D.C. A story on Page A1 in yesterday's morning edition said the legal holiday in Washington was today.
» The Academy of Hawaiian Arts from Oakland, Calif., is the third mainland halau to place at the Merrie Monarch Festival. An article on Page D4 yesterday said it was the second.
Star-Bulletin writer Gary Chun adds the following clarification:
In 1998, kumu hula Mark Keali'i Ho'omalu of Oakland Calif. led his then-halau, Na Mele Hula 'Ohana, to a fourth place finish in the kane kahiko category, making them the first mainland halau in Merrie Monarch history to place in competition. Six years later, in 2004, Halau Keali'i O Nalani from Los Angeles, under the direction of kumu hula Keali'i Ceballos, also took fourth in kane kahiko. This year's placing in fourth by Ho'omalu with the Academy of Hawaiian Arts marks the first time in the kane 'auana category by a mainland halau.
