Debt Disclosure [Abstract]
Notes Payable and Long-term Debt	Notes Payable and Long-term Debt On March 29, 2012, the Company entered into a new, long-term, unsecured, revolving credit facility providing $1.06 billion of borrowing capacity. The facility has a five-year maturity and permits the Company to borrow under three separate tranches in U.S. dollars, certain specified foreign currencies, and any other currency that may be approved in accordance with the terms of the credit agreement. The facility agreement also provides for a financial letter of credit subfacility of $300.0 million, permits performance letters of credit, and provides for a $50.0 million subfacility for swingline loans. On the closing date of the new facility, the Company borrowed approximately $284.8 million to repay all amounts outstanding under (i) the Company's previous revolving credit facility originally entered into by the Company on December 15, 2005, and (ii) certain, other bilateral credit facilities. Debt that was outstanding on the closing date of the new facility and which was refinanced using the new, long-term facility is now classified as long-term debt in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet at March 30, 2012. Depending on the Company's consolidated leverage ratio (as defined in the credit agreement), borrowings under the new credit facility will bear interest at either a eurocurrency rate plus a margin of between 0.875% and 1.225% or a base rate plus a margin of between 0% and 0.225%. The new credit facility contains affirmative, negative, and financial covenants customary for financings of this type including, among other things, limitations on certain other indebtedness, loans and investments, liens, mergers, asset sales and transactions with affiliates. In addition, the new credit facility contains customary events of default. At March 30, 2012, the Company was in compliance with its debt covenants.
