Notes to Financial Statements [Abstract]
INCOME TAXES	INCOME TAXES The effective income tax rates for the thirteen weeks ended May 4, 2014 and May 5, 2013 were 19.7% and 62.7%, respectively. The effective income tax rate for the thirteen weeks ended May 4, 2014 was lower than the United States statutory rate due to the impact of the benefit of lower tax rates in international jurisdictions where the Company files tax returns. The effective income tax rate for the thirteen weeks ended May 5, 2013 was higher than the United States statutory rate. Overall lower tax rates in international jurisdictions where the Company files tax returns were more than offset by certain discrete tax benefits recorded during the quarter. Since the Company had a pre-tax loss, discrete tax benefits caused the effective tax rate to increase, whereas such benefits will lower the tax rate in periods with pre-tax income. On May 14, 2014, the Company settled an uncertain tax position related to European and United States transfer pricing arrangements. The settlement will result in taxes of approximately $179.0 million. As of the end of the first quarter of 2014, the Company had recorded approximately $185.0 million for this uncertain tax position. Accordingly, in the second quarter of 2014, the Company will recognize a tax benefit of approximately $6.0 million, as well as record a reduction of approximately $185.0 million in its liability for uncertain tax positions.
