Financial Statements

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, F-14

1. We noted within the Risk Factors (page 6) and the Independent Accountants Review Report for the three month period ended November 30, 2004 references were made that the auditor`s have issued a going concern opinion based on substantial doubt that the Company can continue as an ongoing business. The current audit opinion for the period ended August 31, 2004 and notes to the financial statements does not appear to be consistent with this position. Please clarify supplementally the reasoning for not issuing a going concern and consider revising the current audit opinion and Note 1 to the financial statements to include the appropriate going concern language and management`s intentions in regard to this matter in accordance with SAS No. 59.

2. Please provide for a current consent in the amendment.

Closing Comments

As appropriate, please amend your registration statement in response to these comments. You may wish to provide us with marked copies of the amendment to expedite our review. Please furnish a cover letter with your amendment that keys your responses to our comments and provides any requested supplemental information. Detailed cover letters greatly facilitate our review. Please understand that we may have additional comments after reviewing your amendment and responses to our comments.

We direct your attention to Rules 460 and 461 regarding requesting acceleration of a registration statement. Please allow adequate time after the filing of any amendment for further review before submitting a request for acceleration. Please provide this request at least two business days in advance of the requested effective date.
