QUESTION 1: We note that you are seeking to register 232,763 warrants without registering the shares underlying such warrants. Please explain to us why you have not registered such shares at this time as it appears the warrants are exercisable within one year. See the Division of Corporation Finance's Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations Section A9 (July 1997).

RESPONSE:

We registered the shares underlying the 232,763 warrants in a pre-effective amendment, filed onJune 7, 2005, to our registration statement on Form S-3, SEC File no. 124692, effective on June 9, 2005. We believe that we are in compliance with Securities Act Sections 2(a)(3) and Section 5 with respect to both the warrants and the shares underlying the warrants, since in accordance with Section A9 of the Telephone Interpretations, the shares underlying the warrants were already registered at the time the warrants were registered.

QUESTION 2:

Please date the signatures on the signature page.

RESPONSE:

We have included dated signature pages in our amended filing on Form S-3/A.
