| Long-Term Debt                 | LONG-TERM DEBTOn April 5, 2012, the Company entered into a five-year multicurrency revolving credit agreement (“Credit Facility”) with a group of financial institutions.  Under the Credit Facility, the Company may borrow up to $150,000, which includes a $10,000 swing line sub-facility, as well as an accordion feature that allows the Company to increase the Credit Facility by a total of up to $100,000, subject to securing additional commitments from existing lenders or new lending institutions.  At the Company's election, loans made under the Credit Facility bear interest at either (1) a defined base rate, which varies with the highest of the defined prime rate, the federal funds rate, or a specified margin over the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), or (2) LIBOR plus an applicable margin.  Swing line loans bear interest at the defined base rate plus an applicable margin.  Commitment fees and letter of credit fees are also payable under the Credit Facility.  Borrowings under the Credit Facility are unsecured, but are guaranteed by substantially all of the Company's material domestic subsidiaries.  The Credit Facility also contains certain covenants customary to such agreements, as well as customary events of default.  At March 2, 2013, there were no borrowings outstanding on the Credit Facility.  The Credit Facility includes a $50,000 letter of credit sub-facility, against which $16,012 in letters of credit had been issued at both March 2, 2013 and December 1, 2012. |
