Recently Accounting Pronouncements [Abstract]

4.	Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2011, the FASB revised the fair value measurement and disclosure requirements to align the requirements under GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). The guidance clarifies the FASB's intent about the application of existing fair value measurements and requires enhanced disclosures, most significantly related to unobservable inputs used in a fair value measurement that is categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The guidance is effective prospectively during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

- Definition

Tabular disclosure of changes in accounting principles, including adoption of new accounting pronouncements, that describes the new methods, amount and effects on financial statement line items.
