Here's what I get:
:: Synchronizing package databases...
core is up to date
extra is up to date
community is up to date
:: Starting full system upgrade...
warning: coreutils: local (7.1-2) is newer than core (6.12-1)
local database is up to date
Is there something horked up? Should I do a pacman -S coreutils?? When I do that it warns of othe downgrade from 7.1-2 to 6.12-1
Sorry - quite new with all the in's and out's of arch...
Thanks in advance...

Sorry - quite new with all the in's and out's of arch...
Yet you have decided to use the [testing] repo...
This package moved from [testing] to [core]. Your mirror has synced [testing] but not [core] so you get the message. It will disappear in a day.

Actually I have not...here's my pacman.conf file
#
# /etc/pacman.conf
#
# See the pacman.conf(5) manpage for option and repository directives
#
# GENERAL OPTIONS
#
[options]
# The following paths are commented out with their default values listed.
# If you wish to use different paths, uncomment and update the paths.
#RootDir = /
#DBPath = /var/lib/pacman/
#CacheDir = /var/cache/pacman/pkg/
#LogFile = /var/log/pacman.log
HoldPkg = pacman glibc
# If upgrades are available for these packages they will be asked for first
SyncFirst = pacman
#XferCommand = /usr/bin/wget --passive-ftp -c -O %o %u
#XferCommand = /usr/bin/curl %u > %o
#CleanMethod = KeepInstalled
# Pacman won't upgrade packages listed in IgnorePkg and members of IgnoreGroup
#IgnorePkg =
#IgnoreGroup =
#NoUpgrade =
#NoExtract =
# Misc options (all disabled by default)
#NoPassiveFtp
#UseSyslog
#ShowSize
#UseDelta
#TotalDownload
#
# REPOSITORIES
# - can be defined here or included from another file
# - pacman will search repositories in the order defined here
# - local/custom mirrors can be added here or in separate files
# - repositories listed first will take precedence when packages
# have identical names, regardless of version number
# - URLs will have $repo replaced by the name of the current repo
#
# Repository entries are of the format:
# [repo-name]
# Server = ServerName
# Include = IncludePath
#
# The header [repo-name] is crucial - it must be present and
# uncommented to enable the repo.
#
# Testing is disabled by default. To enable, uncomment the following
# two lines. You can add preferred servers immediately after the header,
# and they will be used before the default mirrors.
#[testing]
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
[core]
# Add your preferred servers here, they will be used first
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
[extra]
# Add your preferred servers here, they will be used first
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
[community]
# Add your preferred servers here, they will be used first
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
[community]
# Add your preferred servers here, they will be used first
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
# An example of a custom package repository. See the pacman manpage for
# tips on creating your own repositories.
#[custom]
#Server = file:///home/custompkgs
Which is why I'm confused....
EDIT: I'm not crazy enough to enable testing...this is my development system my life, my code....lives on this thing

Why have you enabled community twice?

Did you change mirror in /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist then? Perhaps the one you changed to is less up to date.

Sorry - it seemed that community was enabled twice because it was an accidental post of that section twice - not enabled twice for real...
Additionally, I re-enabled Server = ftp://ftp.archlinux.org/$repo/os/i686 and the problem went away.
So question: Should I always keep the archlinux one enabled and have a few others enabled too in-case the archlinux one fails??
