For the record - Feb. 22, 2015
Deaf West Theatre: In the Feb. 22 Arts & Books section, an article about American Sign Language used in a production of David Mamet’s “American Buffalo” reversed the descriptions for “coin” and a profanity. “Coin” is signed by touching the tip of the index finger to the thumb to create a circle, and placing the palm of the other hand beneath it. Without the last step, the sign indicates a profanity.
Burbank Airport: An article in the Feb. 21 California section about plans for a new terminal at Bob Hope Airport said that the Burbank-Glendale-Pasadena Airport Authority was expected to vote on a resolution on “Monday.” The vote had actually been set for Feb. 9, but the authority deferred voting on the resolution, and talks continue between the authority and the city of Burbank.
Boxing photo: In the Feb. 21 Sports section, an article about an upcoming title bout between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao included a photo of a boxer identified as Mayweather. The boxer shown was Timothy Bradley.
Glen Campbell: In the Feb. 19 Calendar section, an article about Glen Campbell’s song “I’m Not Gonna Miss You” said that his “Goodbye Tour” encompassed 152 shows and took place in 2012-13. It included 151 shows during 2011 and 2012. The article also said that he was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease in 2012. That diagnosis came in 2011, and his final recording session for “I’m Not Gonna Miss You” occurred in 2012, not 2013.
