Corrections

Following are the corrections published online or in print in The Maneater in the past two weeks:

• 2 p.m., November 17, 2009:

  CPD regional training center provides permanent location

  
  

  It was CPD Chief Kenneth Burton and not CPD Deputy Chief Tom Dresner who spoke at the event and said, "He couldn't overstate the importance of the firearms simulator". The Maneater regrets the error.

• 10:31 p.m., November 12, 2009:

  House passes health care legislation

  
  

  The Nov. 10 report 'House passes health care legislation' quoted spokesman Paul Sloca saying Rep. Blaine Luetkemeyer, R-Mo., believes health care reform proposals would amount to a government takeover of the private insurance industry. Luetkemeyer actually believes it would be a takeover of health care. The story also incorrectly stated Luetkemeyer owns a private insurance business. He has not since May. The Maneater regrets the error.

• 6:16 p.m., November 12, 2009:

  Hype over Tebow might be warranted

  
  

  Tim Tebow's injury against Kentucky occurred at Kentucky, not at Florida's stadium known as "The Swamp." The Maneater regrets the error.

• 4:46 p.m., November 9, 2009:

  MU hosts Miss Africa Mizzou Pageant

  
  

  Eritrea was liberated 18 years ago, not eight. The Maneater regrets the error.
