[May

Effective July 2009, the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC), also known collectively as the "Codification," is considered the single source of authoritative U.S. accounting and reporting standards for nongovernmental entities. Following the Codification, the FASB will not issue new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts. Instead, it will issue Accounting Standards Updates (ASU) which will not be authoritative in their own right as they will only serve to update the Codification, provide background information about the guidance and provide the basis for conclusions on the changes to the Codification. GAAP is not intended to be changed as a result of the Codification, but the ASC does change the way the guidance is organized and presented. The Codification is effective for interim or annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. Other than the manner in which new accounting guidance is referenced the adoption of these changes had no impact on the financial statements.
