Accounting Policies [Abstract] |  |  |  |
Description of Letter from The NASDAQ Stock Market | On April 11, 2013, The NASDAQ Stock Market ("NASDAQ") notified us that we had failed to maintain a minimum market value of listed securities ("MVLS") of $35,000 over the previous 30 consecutive business days as required by The NASDAQ Capital Market set forth in Listing Rule 5550(b)(2). NASDAQ also advised us in its letter that we did not meet the requirements under NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 5550(b)(1), which requires maintenance of $2,500 of stockholders' equity, and Rule 5550(b)(3), which requires net income from continuing operations of $500 or more in 2012 or in two of the three years 2010, 2011 and 2012. Under Rule 5550, we could regain compliance and avoid the potential for delisting of our common stock by satisfying any one of the minimum MVLS test, the minimum equity test or the minimum net income test. In order to meet the minimum equity requirement, we increased stockholders' equity by selling 662,000 shares for net proceeds of $3,400 in May 2013. On August 21, 2013, NASDAQ notified us that since the May 2013 sale of securities, which was at a discount to the then current market price, included certain officers and directors, the private placement required shareholder approval under Listing Rule 5635(c).We held a special meeting held on September 30, 2013 at which our stockholders voted to ratify this sale of shares to our officers and directors.On October 4, 2013, we received notification from NASDAQ that we have regained compliance with Listing Rule 5635(c) and Listing Rule 5550(b) and that this matter is now closed. |  |  |
