Net write-downs, reserves and recoveries consist of $2.6 million and $3.2 million in losses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively. The losses related to a $2.9 million lease abandonment charge from the consolidation of our Las Vegas headquarters recognized during the second quarter of 2014, offset by gains during the three months ended June 30, 2014, and net losses from the disposal of slot and other equipment at our properties in the normal course of business during the six months ended June 30, 2014. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, we recognized net losses of $1.8 million and $2.1 million, respectively, related primarily to a $1.1 million second quarter impairment charge on our Sales Tax Anticipation Revenue ("STAR") bonds, issued by Reno, Nevada and the disposal of slot and other equipment at our properties in the normal course of business.
