These losses have been offset by $36 million in cumulative insurance proceeds related to property damage claims (including $10 million for the third quarter of 2012 and $13 million for the third quarter of 2011, with $13 million for the first nine months of 2012 and $20 million for the first nine months of 2011). Almost all of these costs and proceeds are included in COR in our Consolidated statements of income and are recorded in Other. In addition, we recognized $172 million in cumulative insurance proceeds through September 30, 2012 (including $60 million for the third quarter of 2012 and $22 million for the third quarter of 2011, with $135 million for the first nine months of 2012 and $22 million for the first nine months of 2011), related to business interruption claims. These proceeds were recorded as revenue in our Consolidated statements of income and in Other.
