Austin Taylor has ceased operations and the Company is in the process of liquidating its Austin Taylor assets.  When this process is completed, the Company would recognize a significant portion of the accumulated foreign currency translations as a current period loss and would recognize the pension liability adjustment as a current period gain.  Depending on the timing of several events, these losses and gains may occur in different periods.
