Form 10-K for Fiscal Year Ended April 30, 2005
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
1. Your conclusion does not indicate whether disclosure controls
and
procedures were effective as called for under Rule13a-15(e) of the
Exchange Act. The rule requires, among other matters, that the
disclosure controls and procedures be designed "to ensure that
information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports
that it files or submits under the Act . . . is recorded,
processed,
summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the
Commission`s rules and forms" and to ensure that "information
required to be disclosed by an issuer . . . is accumulated and
communicated to the issuer`s management . . . as appropriate to
allow
timely decisions regarding required disclosure." Please confirm,
if
true, that your disclosure controls and procedures for the
relevant
period met all of the requirements of this section and that you
will
conform your disclosures in future filings.
2. We note your statement that there have been no "significant
changes" in `these controls" subsequent to your evaluation. It
does
not appear that your disclosure is consistent with the
requirements
of Item 308(c) of Regulation S-K. Please tell us whether there
was
"any change" during your last fiscal quarter that "materially
affected or was reasonably likely to materially affect," your
internal controls over financial reporting. Confirm that you will
revise future filings accordingly.
Form 10-Q for Fiscal Quarter Ended July 31, 2005
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
3. We note your statement that your chief executive officer and
your
chief financial officer "have concluded the controls and
procedures
currently in place are adequate to insure a fair presentation, in
all
material respects, of financial position, results or operations
and
statements of cash flow of the Company." It does not appear that
your certifying officers have reached a conclusion that your
disclosure controls and procedures are effective as called for
under
Rule13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Please confirm, if true, that
your disclosure controls and procedures for the relevant period
met
all of the requirements of this section and that you will conform
your disclosures in future filings.
4. We note your statement that there have been no "material
changes"
to "such controls". It does not appear that your disclosure is
consistent with the requirements of Item 308(c) of Regulation S-K.
Please tell us whether there was "any change" during your last
fiscal
quarter that "materially affected or was reasonably likely to
materially affect," your internal controls over financial
reporting.
Confirm that you will revise future filings accordingly.

As appropriate, please amend your filing and respond to
these
comments within five business days or tell us when you will

We urge all persons who are responsible for the accuracy and
adequacy of the disclosure in the filing to be certain that the
filing includes all information required under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 and that they have provided all information
investors require for an informed investment decision. Since the
company and its management are in possession of all facts relating
to
a company`s disclosure, they are responsible for the accuracy and
adequacy of the disclosures they have made.
In connection with responding to our comments, please
provide,
in writing, a statement from the company acknowledging that:
* the company is responsible for the adequacy and accuracy of the
disclosure in the filing;
* staff comments or changes to disclosure in response to staff
comments do not foreclose the Commission from taking any action
with
respect to the filing; and
* the company may not assert staff comments as a defense in any
proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the
federal securities laws of the United States.
In addition, please be advised that the Division of
Enforcement
has access to all information you provide to the staff of the
Division of Corporation Finance in our review of your filing or in
