RE:  	Form 8-K Item 4.01 filed April 25, 2005
	File # 1-2257

Dear Ms. Toppi:

We have reviewed your filings and have the following comments.
Where
indicated, we think you should revise your documents in response
to
these comments.  If you disagree, we will consider your
explanation
as to why our comment is inapplicable or a revision is
unnecessary.
Please be as detailed as necessary in your explanation.  In some
of
our comments, we may ask you to provide us with supplemental
information so we may better understand your disclosure.  After
reviewing this information, we may or may not raise additional
comments.

	Please understand that the purpose of our review process is
to
assist you in your compliance with the applicable disclosure
requirements and to enhance the overall disclosure in your filing.
We look forward to working with you in these respects.  We welcome
any questions you may have about our comments or on any other
aspect
of our review.  Feel free to call us at the telephone number
listed
at the end of this letter.

1. Please revise the Form to state whether the former accountant
resigned, declined to stand for re-election or was dismissed as
required by Item 304(a)(1)(i) of Regulation S-K.  It is not
sufficient to state that the former accountant was advised "that
they
were not being retained" as that wording is unclear to a reader.
Include a letter from the former accountants addressing the
revised
disclosures.  File the amendment under cover of Form 8-K/A and
include the Item 4 designation.

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.  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.

In connection with responding to our comments, please provide, in
writing, a statement from the company acknowledging that

* the company is responsible for the adequacy and accuracy of the
disclosure in the filings;
* staff comments or changes to disclosure in response to staff
comments in the filings reviewed by the staff do not foreclose the
Commission from taking any action with respect to the filing; and
* the company may not assert staff comments 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 our review of your filing or in response to
our comments on your filing.

Please file your supplemental response via EDGAR in response to
these
comments within 5 business days of the date of this letter.
Please
note that if you require longer than 5 business days to respond,
you
should contact the staff immediately to request additional time.
You
may wish to provide us with marked copies of each amended filing
to
expedite our review.  Direct any questions regarding the above to
the
undersigned at (202) 824-5563.


						Sincerely,



						Patricia Armelin
						Staff Accountant
