RE:  File No. 000-16867

Dear Ms. Akins:

This letter is being sent in response to our telephone conversation on August 29, 2008 regarding additional comments to an original comment letter dated July 24, 2008 to our Company regarding our Form 10K filing for December 31, 2007 and Form 10Q filing for March 31, 2008.  Below, we have included your additional comments and our response to those comments.  We have attempted to key our responses to each inquiry in the same order as our conversation.

Additional Comment:  Prior comment #3.  Revise disclosure.

Response:  We are amending our Form 10K filing to revise the disclosure.  Below is the changed text for the referenced paragraph.  The amendments are included in our proposed Form 10K/A-1 filing.

Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2008

Additional comment:  Expand disclosure to provide more robust discussion of assumptions used to determine fair value of Level 3 assets.  Specifically, elaborate on pricing models used and their application with regard to your securities as well as any changes in valuation techniques used.  In addition, discuss how you validate the techniques or models used.

Response:  After evaluating SFAS 157 further, it was determined our original response was incorrect.  Specifically, it was determined that the Company does not currently apply fair value measurements to items that would be classified as Level 3, which we incorrectly included in our first response.  The Company does not have financial instruments whose values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.  As such, our revised disclosure required by SFAS 157 is as follows and is included in our proposed first quarter Form 10Q/A-1 filing:

10. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS  

Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS 157 which requires enhanced disclosures of assets and liabilities carried at fair value. SFAS 157 established a hierarchical disclosure framework based on the priority of the inputs to the respective valuation technique. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). An asset or liability’s classification within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of significant input to its valuation.  SFAS 157 defines the input levels as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Quoted prices in markets that are not active or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities other than quoted prices in Level 1; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.  The Company does not have any Level 3 financial assets or liabilities.

The following table presents the balances of financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2008.
