we may or may not raise additional comments.
Please understand that the purpose of our review process is

FORM 8-K FILED 11/18/2005
1. Your current disclosure refers to your former accountant`s
report
on the financial statements for the fiscal years ended December
31,
2004 and December 31, 2003. Item 304(a)(1)(ii) of Regulation S-B
requires disclosure concerning the accountant`s reports for the
past
two years, which would be the reports for the financial statements
for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002. Please change
report
to reports.
2. Please amend your Form 8-K to provide the information required
by
Item 304(a)(1)(iv)(B)-(E) of Regulation S-B, regarding any
reportable
event (i.e. internal control weakness, etc.) that the former
accountant advised the company of during the two most recent
fiscal
years and subsequent interim period through the date of
termination.
3. In detail, please describe the nature of each reportable event
and
the amounts involved, if any. Also, tell us in what period the
reportable event occurred and whether or not you restated (or
intend
to restate) any prior period for any adjustment resulting from the
reportable event; and if not, why not. Tell us in detail the steps
you have taken (or plan to take) and procedures you implemented
(or
plan to implement) to correct each reportable event.
4. Please provide us with a schedule of your fiscal year end
fourth
quarter adjustments to close the books, or adjustments recorded in
connection with or as a result of the audit. Clearly explain the
reason for each adjustment. For each adjustment, show us the
impact
on pre-tax net loss. Quantify the net effect of all adjustments
on
pre-tax net income (loss). Also, tell us why none of the
adjustments
relate to prior period. Explain in detail why you believe the
timing
of each adjustment is appropriate.
5. Provide us with any letter or written communication to and from
the former accountants regarding any disagreements or reportable
events to management or the Audit Committee.
6. To the extent that you make changes to the Form 8-K to comply
with
our comments, please obtain and file an updated Exhibit 16 letter
from the former accountants stating whether the accountant agrees
with the statements made in your revised Form 8-K.
FORM 10-KSB FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2004
7. You currently disclose that the chief executive officer and
chief
financial officer have concluded that your disclosure controls and
procedures are effective, except as provided above. Given the
exception noted, it remains unclear whether your chief executive
officer and your chief financial officer have concluded that your
disclosure controls and procedures are effective. Please revise
your
disclosure to state, in clear and unqualified language, the
conclusions reached by your chief executive officer and your chief
financial officer on the effectiveness of your disclosure controls
and procedures. Please confirm if your chief executive officer
and
chief financial officer have concluded that your disclosure
controls
and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2004. Otherwise,
you should amend your Form 10-KSB to disclose that given the
identified matter, your disclosure controls and procedures are not
effective. Please also amend your 2005 Forms 10-QSB to state, in
clear and unqualified language, that your disclosure controls and
procedures are either effective or not effective.
*****
