FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman">The effective income tax rate on continuing operations in the first nine months of 2010 was higher than the 35% U.S. statutory tax rate largely due to a $13.9 million reduction in deferred tax assets as a result of recently enacted U.S. healthcare legislation, and $6.2 million in higher taxes related to non-U.S. tax jurisdictions, partially offset by a $7.9 million non-cash income tax benefit related to a tax settlement. The non-U.S. taxes were higher than 35% primarily due to the designation of Venezuela as highly inflationary for accounting purposes, the geographical mix of earnings, and the characterization of a French business tax as an income tax based upon legislative changes effective January 1, 2010.</font></div><div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"><br /></div><div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="left"><font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-STYLE: italic; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman">2009 Compared to U.S. Statutory Rate</font></div><div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="left"><font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman">The effective income tax rate on continuing operations in the first nine months of 2009 was lower than the 35% U.S. statutory tax rate due to $5.7 million in lower tax expense primarily resulting from the net effect of permanent book-tax differences offset by increases in valuation allowances in our non-U.S. jurisdictions.  Included in the $5.7 million net benefit is an $8.9 million tax benefit from inflation adjustments in Venezuela that would not be recorded under highly inflationary accounting rules.  In addition, the rate was impacted by $3.6 million in lower taxes due to the nontaxable acquisition-related gains, and $1.5 million in higher U.S. taxes due to changes in elections for the recently filed U.S. tax returns and changes in tax laws.</font></div><br /> Note 5 - Income taxes   Three Months  Nine Months    Ended September 30,  Ended September 30,   false false false us-types:textBlockItemType textblock Description containing the entire income tax disclosure.
