Write-downs, reserves and recoveries, net consist of $17.3 million in losses for the year ended December 31, 2013. The losses were primarily a result of an impairment loss for our Boomtown Bossier City gaming license of $10 million, an impairment charge of $1.5 million related to a decline in value of our excess land in Lake Charles, Louisiana, and losses of $2.8 million from disposals of slot and other equipment at our properties in the normal course of business.
