Concentration Of Credit Risk [Abstract]

Concentration Of Credit Risk

15. Concentration of Credit Risk

     Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. The Company invests its cash and cash equivalents into high credit quality security instruments. On November 9, 2010, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, ("FDIC") issued a Final Rule implementing section 343 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act that provides for unlimited insurance coverage of noninterest-bearing transaction accounts. Beginning December 31, 2010, through December 31, 2012, all noninterest bearing transaction accounts are fully insured, regardless of the balance of the account, at all FDIC insured institutions. All other deposits which exceed $250,000, including noninterest bearing transaction accounts prior to December 31, 2010, at each institution are not insured by the FDIC. Of the $18.0 million in cash and cash equivalents on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2011, $1.2 million was not insured by the FDIC. Of the $8.1 million in cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2010, $3.4 million was not insured by the FDIC.
