INCOME TAXES
INCOME TAXES	NOTE 11. INCOME TAXES During the three months ended March 31, 2014, we recorded an income tax benefit of $1 million, which was net of an income tax expense of $3 million to increase our valuation allowance for deferred tax assets. The increase in the valuation allowance relates to an estimated decrease in the future utilization of state net operating loss carryovers. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, there were no adjustments to our estimated liabilities for uncertain tax positions. The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2014 was $43 million, of which $34 million, if recognized, would impact our effective tax rate and income tax expense (benefit) from continuing operations. Our practice is to recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense in our consolidated statements of operations. Total accrued interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2014 were $5 million, all of which related to continuing operations. As of March 31, 2014, approximately $1 million of unrecognized federal and state tax benefits, as well as reserves for interest and penalties, may decrease in the next 12 months as a result of the settlement of audits, the filing of amended tax returns or the expiration of statutes of limitations.
