32. We have read your response to comment 61. Please discuss in
MD&A
the consequences to your future operations, financial position and
liquidity if this debt is not restructured and the joint venture
is
terminated or becomes inactive. Explain to us the financial
implications of an "equal settlement of liabilities" under the
joint
venture agreement. Based upon your disclosures, it appears that
upon
termination of the joint venture, you would be required to make
non
refundable cash payments to the joint venture to settle
outstanding
liabilities. Please explain to us how this provision in the joint
venture agreement does not constitute a guarantee or further
commits
the company to provide further financial support and thus would
necessitate recognition of losses in excess of your initial
investments and any subsequent advances. Additionally, if such a
contingency to settle joint venture liabilities does not exist,
clarify your disclosure on page 56. If such a contingency does
exist, revise your disclosure in the applicable sections of the
filing and in Note 3 to describe the nature of this contingency
and
provide an estimate of the possible loss or range of loss or state
that such an estimate cannot be made. Expand your disclosure in
Note
3 to cover the termination provisions of the joint venture
agreement
as described on page 56.

response to these comments. You may wish to provide us with

comments and provides any requested supplemental information.

We urge all persons who are responsible for the accuracy and
adequacy of the disclosure in the filings reviewed by the staff to
be
certain that they have provided all information investors require
for
an informed 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.
Notwithstanding our comments, in the event the company
requests
acceleration of the effective date of the pending registration
statement, it should furnish a letter, at the time of such
request,

* should the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated
authority, declare the filing effective, it does not foreclose the
Commission from taking any action with respect to the filing;
* the action of the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to
delegated authority, in declaring the filing effective, does not
relieve the company from its full responsibility for the adequacy
and
accuracy of the disclosure in the filing; and
* the company may not assert this action 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 connection with our review of
your
filing or in response to our comments on your filing.

effective date of the registration statement as a confirmation of
the

respective
responsibilities under the Securities Act of 1933 and the
Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 as they relate to the proposed public
offering
of the securities specified in the above registration statement.
