During the year ended December 31, 2011, we determined that certain of our securities had an other-than-temporary decline in value and a write down of $158 was included in our Consolidated Statements of Income/(Loss) and Comprehensive Income/(Loss).  There were no such write downs during the nine months ended September 30, 2012.
