1. Notwithstanding your response to prior co mment 4, both your Forms 10-K/A and 10-Q/A filed on August 11, 2011 continue to present an incorrect tabl e of contents and order of disclosures.

Evaluation of Controls and Procedures, page 20

2. Your response notwithstanding, you continue to have two evaluations of disclosure controls and procedures disclosed. The first, in the last paragraph on page 20 and the second, in the first paragraph on page 21. In clusion of two disclo sure controls and procedures reports may be confusing to readers. Please confirm, if true, that in future filings, please assess which of the paragraphs best meets the requirements of Item 307 and exclude the other. 3. We note your continued belief that your di sclosure controls a nd procedures were effective as December 31, 2010. In your re sponse you refer to your belief that going forward you will be “in position to perform and complete its report on internal controls effectively due to the use of the correct Form as advised by the SEC Comment letters”. It does not appear that you understood the nature of our prior comment which dealt with the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures. Neither of these assessments is related in any way to the Form on which you file your annual report. Since you did not include your assessment of internal controls over financial reporti ng, we do not believe that your disclosure controls a nd procedures were effective.

You may contact Tamara Tangen, Staff A ccountant, at (202) 551-3443 if you have questions regarding comments on the financial statem ents and related matters. Please contact me at (202) 551-3730 with any other questions. Sincerely, /s/ Stephen G. Krikorian Stephen G. Krikorian Accounting Branch Chief
