	Corrections: August 17 New York Times August 17, 2011 http://www.nytimes.com/2011/08/17/pageoneplus/corrections-august-17.html?_r=1 FRONT PAGE An article last Wednesday about proposals to charge automobile owners a fee for the miles they drive misstated the fee that drivers of electric cars in Oregon would be charged in 2018 under pending legislation. It is 1.56 cents per mile, not 1.85 cents. NATIONAL An article on Monday about Robert Finn, the bishop of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Kansas City-St. Joseph in Missouri, who waited months to report evidence of abuse by a priest, misstated one part of a three-year-old agreement to settle lawsuits in previous sex abuse cases. The settlement, for $10 million, included a list of 19 — not 90 — preventive measures, including immediately reporting possible abuse to the police. A picture caption on Friday with an article about a recent fire that ravaged the McCarthy Cottage, a wooden, six-room getaway in West Georgia that Franklin D. Roosevelt had built, referred incorrectly to Roosevelt's tenure as governor of New York. He held that office beginning in 1929 — not 1928, the date given for the photograph showing him with his wife, Eleanor. NEW YORK An article in some editions on Aug. 9 about the testimony of an assistant fire commissioner in a federal case over discrimination in the New York Fire Department misstated the purpose of the current trial. It is to determine what remedies may be needed in the department to address discrimination, not to determine whether the discrimination that the judge had found was deliberate. The On Education column on Monday, about research fellows selected to advise the education commissioner and the state Board of Regents, gave an incorrect name from the New York State Department of Education for the group that contributed $50,000 to support the fellows. It is the National Association of Charter School Authorizers, not the National Association of Charter School Administrators. BUSINESS DAY An article on Monday about new scrutiny of property tax exemptions for some nonprofit groups in California misstated the number of groups with exemptions in Santa Clara County. It is about 4,000, not 290,000. (The larger number includes tax-exempt homeowners.) An article on Tuesday about reaction to Warren E. Buffett's call for higher taxes on the rich misidentified the cable channel with which Pat Buchanan is affiliated. Mr. Buchanan, who suggested that Mr. Buffett donate to the federal government, is a commentator on MSNBC, not on CNN. SPORTS An article on Saturday about the difficulties the P.G.A. Championship field experienced on the final four holes at the Atlanta Athletic Club described incorrectly Rory McIlroy's performance on them. He was three over par on the course's final four holes after playing them twice, not two over. The On Golf column on Monday, about the resolve that Keegan Bradley, a PGA Tour rookie, showed in winning the P.G.A. Championship in his first appearance in a major tournament, misstated, in some copies, his score on the 15th hole on Sunday. While it was a triple bogey, it was a 6, not a 7. THE ARTS A picture caption on Tuesday with a review about "Ten Cents a Dance," a staged concert of Rodgers and Hart songs at the Williamstown Theater Festival in Massachusetts, gave an incorrect identification from a publicist for the woman shown at the left playing a violin. She is Jane Pfitsch — not Jessica Tyler Wright, who was also in the show but was not pictured. INSIDE THE TIMES A capsule summary for an article about an activist in Azerbaijani who has long fought forced evictions in the city of Baku carried an erroneous headline.  As the article and the summary itself correctly noted, the authorities recently bulldozed the activist's offices, not her house.
