Because of an error by the Sun, a story in Tuesday's Metro section incorrectly stated the date that authorities made a sweep of shopping carts, which were used by the homeless, outside the Salvation Army's downtown facility. The sweep happened in September 2003. The Sun regrets the error.

* Because of errors by the Sun, a story in Wednesday's editions incorrectly stated Tyrus W."Ty" Cobb's experience in the government. He was a national security adviser to President Reagan. The story also incorrectly stated his view on Iraq. Cobb said there has been considerable progress in Iraq, but he said there is a concern that public opinion will shift against the president in the next year if there is not more visible progress in improving security there. The Sun regrets the errors.
