Patch Sincerely Regrets...Corrections and Clarifications

We strive to get it right and we take transparency seriously. In our commitment to accuracy, we also acknowledge our mistakes, and work to fix them as quickly as possible. Corrections are marked with an asterisk (*) in stories where errors have been fixed, accompanied by an editor's note in italics at the bottom of the story.

We do our best to get the facts right, but if everyone makes mistakes-even us. If you do see something in an article that you think should be corrected, or if something else is amiss, give Local Editor Tara Conry a ring at 516-220-6621 or shoot her an e-mail at Tara.Conry@patch.com.

Here are our recent corrections and clarifications:

• A story, titled "Rider Avenues Fuming Over Malverne Roadwork," published on Nov. 4, incorrectly attributed the following quotes to Trustee  James Callahan: "We secured a bulk price- $20 per linear foot.We also waived the cost of the permit, which is usually $50. We're trying to get it in before they raise rates again."  The first two statements were made by Trustee Mike Bailey and the last by Trustee Joseph Hennessy. Patch regrets the errors.

• A , titled "Antiques Road Show Rolls Into West Hempstead," published Nov. 22 stated incorrectly that Paula Barrett's huband's great-great-grandfather was a Confederate soldier. He actually fought for the North under the 48th Regiment New York State Volunteers.
• A , titled "A Night to Remember: Survivor of Nazi Attacks Visits W. Hempstead," published Nov. 9 incorrectly estimated the number of people who attended the event. A previous version of the article stated that about 80 people participated when the number was closer to 150.
