Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

EARNINGS PER SHARE

EARNINGS PER SHARE

Diluted earnings per share were computed based on the weighted-average number of shares outstanding plus all potentially dilutive common shares.  A reconciliation of basic to diluted shares used in the earnings per share calculation is as follows:

	(In thousands)
	Three Months Ended		Nine Months Ended
	September 30,		September 30,
	2013	2012	2013	2012
Basic weighted-average shares outstanding	47,081	46,884	46,839	46,795
Dilutive effect of stock options and deferred stock compensation	982	531	846	698
Diluted weighted-average shares outstanding	48,063	47,415	47,685	47,493

As of September 30, 2013 and 2012, there were 304,000 and 1,260,000 stock options outstanding, respectively, that could potentially dilute earnings per share in the future, which were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as they would be considered anti-dilutive.
