Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Income Taxes Income tax expense was $12.4 million, or an effective income tax rate of 38.6%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to $10.0 million, or an effective income tax rate of 38.0%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. During the third quarter of 2014, we recorded an income tax benefit of $0.6 million resulting from a claim for a deduction under Internal Revenue Code Section 199 for the Domestic Production Deduction on our 2013 U.S. federal income tax return which was not taken in previous years. We are currently evaluating whether a deduction is available to the Company for prior years in which the statute of limitations is open, and we may recognize an income tax benefit in future periods. In addition, during the first quarter of 2013, we recorded one-time income tax benefits totaling $0.4 million for a foreign subsidiary. Excluding these and other discrete items in both years, the effective income tax rate was 40.2% and 39.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The increase in the effective income tax rate compared to 2013 is primarily due to a higher proportion of earnings in jurisdictions with higher tax rates. Income tax expense for the quarterly periods is based on an estimated annual effective tax rate which includes the U.S. federal, state and local, and non-U.S. statutory rates, permanent differences, and other items that may have an impact on income tax expense. An uncertain tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return is recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not (i.e., a likelihood of more than fifty percent) that the position would be sustained upon examination by tax authorities that have full knowledge of all relevant information. A recognized tax position is then measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Interest and penalties related to income taxes are accounted for as income tax expense. As of September 30, 2014, we had no uncertain tax positions reflected on our consolidated balance sheet. The Company files income tax returns in U.S. federal, state and local jurisdictions, and various non-U.S. jurisdictions, and is subject to audit by tax authorities in those jurisdictions. Tax years 2010 through 2013 remain open to examination by these tax jurisdictions, and earlier years remain open to examination in certain of these jurisdictions which have longer statutes of limitations.
