| Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
| INCOME TAXES |
Our forecasted effective tax rate at June 30, 2014 is 45.5%, a 7.9% increase from the 37.6% effective tax rate recorded at June 30, 2013. The increase in the expected annual rate in 2014 was primarily due to the non-availability of the Federal R&D tax credit, since Congress has not extended this benefit yet for 2014. No discrete items were recorded for the six months ending June 30, 2014. |
