A picture caption on Friday with an article about a visit to Baghdad by Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr., using information from Agence France-Presse, gave an outdated rank for the military official shown accompanying Mr. Biden at the American base Camp Victory. Lloyd J.

An article on Saturday about Jared L. Loughner’s whereabouts the night before he killed six people in a shooting in Tucson misattributed a quotation to Loretta A.

When Judge Preska said, “Judge Roll treated the cafeteria workers in his courthouse as well as he treated the chief judge of the Ninth Circuit,” she was citing a comment made by the Rev. John P. Lyons, the celebrant at the funeral mass; Judge Preska did not make the comment herself. (Go to Article)
