Impairment Charges [Abstract]

Property, Plant and Equipment, Impairment [Policy Text Block]

The Company reviews its property and equipment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable.  Recoverability is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount to the net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset.  An impairment loss would be recorded for the excess of net book value over the fair value of the asset impaired.  The fair value is estimated based on expected discounted future cash flows.
