Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued accounting guidance that requires new disclosures about an entity’s allowance for credit losses and the credit quality of its financing receivables.  Existing disclosures were amended to require an entity to provide certain disclosures on a disaggregated basis by portfolio segment or by class of financing receivables.  The new disclosures as of the end of a reporting period were effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2010.  The disclosures about activity that occurs during a reporting period were effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010.  All necessary disclosures have been complied with in this Form 10-Q.
