Recently Issued or Adopted Accounting Pronouncements.    In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures—Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. Effective March 31, 2011, the standard requires a reporting entity to present separately information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements (that is, on a gross basis rather than a net basis) in the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3). Our adoption of the standard did not have a material effect on our disclosures.

• In April 2011, the FASB issued Fair Value Measurements: Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs). The amendments clarify the FASB's intent about the application of existing fair value measurement and disclosure requirements and include those that change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. The standard is effective for fiscal years ending December 31, 2011. The adoption of the standard is not expected to have any impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

  In May 2011, the FASB issued Comprehensive Income: Presentation of Comprehensive Income. The standard requires that an entity present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In both choices, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income, and a total amount for comprehensive income. The standard is effective for fiscal years ending December 31, 2011. Our adoption of the standard will not have a material effect on our disclosures.
