• The last paragraph of a story in Sunday's Review-Journal regarding decisiveness as a quality in U.S. presidents was incomplete. It should have read: "Decisiveness" doesn't exist on its own. As management courses teach today, any daily diet of sound decisions comes from context and experience and thoughtfulness. Nuance, even.

• The Tommy Bahama Sip and Swim event listed in the April 11 issue of Image contained the wrong date. The event is April 17 from 5 to 8 p.m.
