Corrigenda On the fourth line of the proof of Theorem 2.4,
the misprint $\overline{A}C^2$ should be corrected to $\overline{A}C$.
The penultimate sentence preceding Theorem 1.1 should begin:
"However, because every element of $F_{q}$ is a square in $F_{q^2}$, it is always possible..."
Moreover, in that same sentence, "(3.2)--(3.3)" should be replaced by "(2.16)--(2.17)".
