I have a few disclosures to read before we get started. First, as you are aware, we're required to make a number of conflict of interest and related disclosures in connection with our participation in this conference and the companies that we may discuss. If you would like to review these important disclosures, please pick up the packets containing the public appearance disclosures at the back of this room and at each of the breakout sessions. PDF copies can be accessed by those of you viewing these presentations via the webcast. Now before we get started P&amp;G has asked that I remind you that today's presentation includes a number of forward-looking statements.
