For the record

Version 0 of 1.

A report on the death of Savita Halappanavar said that her body was returned to India on 3 November and buried the same day. Mrs Halappanavar was Hindu and thus cremated, not buried ("'Change your abortion law to save lives', grieving father tells Irish PM", News, last week, page 3).

The report on the Other Voices festival listed rock and jazz trio Soak as appearing in Dingle, 1–3 December. That should have been Bridie Monds-Watson, also known as Soak ("A bigger stage for the mighty little Irish festival", Music, New Review, 11 November, page 13).

The Staves' album <em>Dead & Born & Grown</em> is released by Atlantic Records, not Island Records, as we had it in the endnote appended to their profile "'No, we don't live in a log cabin… '", 11 November, page 12, New Review.

A profile of photographer Joel Meyerowitz erred in mentioning an occasion when Robert Frank was photographing three young girls; said that the "gasp reflex" is an involuntary exhalation; and that William Eggleston visited Meyerowitz in 1962. That should have been two young girls, an involuntary inhalation and 1968 respectively ("'Brilliant mistakes… amazing accidents'", New Review, 11 November, page 26).
