RATIO OF EARNINGS TO FIXED CHARGES

The following table sets forth the ratio of earnings to fixed charges for the periods indicated:

Three Months Ended September 30,		Nine Months Ended September 30,
2006	2005	2006	2005
1.9	5.6	2.0	3.5

For purposes of computing these ratios, earnings have been calculated by adding fixed charges (excluding preferred stock dividends and capitalized interest) to pretax income from continuing operations before adjustment for minority interest in income of consolidated partnership or equity in income of unconsolidated ventures plus distributions from equity investee.  Fixed charges consist of interest costs, whether expensed or capitalized, the interest component of rental expense, if any, and amortization of debt discounts and issue costs, whether expensed or capitalized.
