8.    Intangible Assets

The Company evaluates long-lived assets and intangible assets with definite lives for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  When the Company determines that it is probable that undiscounted future cash flows will not be sufficient to recover an asset’s carrying amount, the asset is written down to its fair value.  Assets to be disposed of by sale, if any, are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.

The following table reflects the components of intangible assets, all of which relate to the IT segment, excluding goodwill:

	Total
Balance as of December 31, 2011	$	210
Amortization of intangibles during the twenty-six week period ended June 30, 2012		52
Balance as of June 30, 2012	$	158

The Company periodically writes off fully amortized intangible assets.  The Company wrote off fully amortized intangibles of $171 and $0 for the twenty-six week periods ended June 30, 2012 and July 2, 2011, respectively.
