Then we look at the "Short-Term Outlook".  "Our previous report estimated the March 31, 2013 cash balances at negative $257 million.  The actual cash balances were negative $288 million.   The difference of $31 million was primarily due to higher than anticipated vendor payments"

In plain English:  OOOPS we spent 10% more.  or  OOOPS we had to pay 10% more.

Then when we look at the chart covering ACTUAL July 2012 to ACTUAL March 2013.   Total month end cash in July 2012 was 1,358,079,000  and with the exception of December 2012 we have had a DECREASE EVERY MONTH SINCE.  So while we seemed to get back on track in December going from November's $246million deficit to a positive balance of $405million.  It was quickly reduced from Jan to March 2013 . 

A disclaimer at the bottom about borrowable resources still does not make us feel comfortable - since those too show a decreasing trend ending in June of 2013.
