If you have a question or concern about the accuracy, fairness or thoroughness of an item in The Honolulu Advertiser, please call Reader Representative John Simonds at 525-8033.

• The state Office of the Ombudsman did not, nor was it asked to, investigate whether police were conducting an investigation into a situation on Punalu'u Valley Road. Because of an editor's error, a story posted in Sunday's Advertiser stated otherwise.

• The Web site for the Religious Science Church of Honolulu is www.HonoluluReligiousScience.org. A reporter gave a wrong Web address in a story posted May 12.

• Kit Beuret is the spokesperson for Oceanic Cable. Because of a reporter's error, a story about Road Runner rates posted Saturday gave an incorrect name.

• Chase J. Nielsen was among the Doolittle Raiders rescued in Peking. Because of a reporter's error, his name was spelled incorrectly in an Advertiser story posted Sunday.

• The goal of an Emergency Services Week "brown bag" program, in which people are asked to bring their medications for analysis, is not to help identify stray medications, but to provide individuals with a card listing the drugs to aid medical personnel during an emergency. An item in the Left Lane column posted Friday may have given an incorrect impression of the program's purpose. People should bring their medications in the original bottles when they meet paramedics: 9 a.m.-4 p.m. today at Honolulu Hale Courtyard; 11 a.m.-5 p.m. tomorrow at Ala Moana Center; 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Thursday at Windward Mall, and 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Friday at Pearlridge Center.
