 Note 13 – Investments
 
On September 30, 2011, the Company invested $5.5 million in common stock of a public company.  On various dates thereafter, the Company continued to invest in its stock (see Note 20-“Subsequent Events”).  Such investment will be accounted for under GAAP as a marketable equity security held for sale.  As such, the investment will be measured at fair market value on a quarterly basis and any unrealized holding gains or losses on the security will be excluded from earnings and included in other comprehensive income or loss on the balance sheet until realized.  The value of the investment will be reviewed for impairment periodically. The investment is included in Other Non-Current Assets on the consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2011.

As of September 30, 2011, the market value of the investment of $5.5 million was equal to its cost and no amounts of unrealized gains or losses have been included in accumulated other comprehensive income.
