		Amendment 3 to Registration Statement on Form SB-2
      Filed September 6, 2006
		File No. 333-135376

Dear Mr. Shields:

      We have reviewed your response letter dated September 5,
2006,
and the revised registration statement, and we have the following
comments.  Where indicated, we think you should revise your
document
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
information
so we may better understand your disclosure.  After reviewing this
information, we may 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 numbers listed
at
the end of this letter.

Form SB-2/A-3 filed on September 5, 2006

Summary of Financial Information, page 3

1. Please refer to the financial information as restated for each
period that the restatement applies.  Additionally, direct readers
to
disclosure in your document that explains the nature and reasons
for
the restatement of the financial information.  Refer to paragraph
17
of APBO No. 9.

Financial Statements for the Fiscal Quarter Ended June 30, 2006

2. Please refer to the financial statements as "restated."  This
comment applies to all financial statements reported in the filing
that have been restated.

8. Stock Based Compensation and Other Equity Transactions, page F-
12

3. We note your reconciliation in response to prior comment number
three.  Please tell us whether or not you have reported the
correction
of an error, as defined in paragraph 2(h) of SFAS 154, with
respect to
the amount shown as contributed capital for the issuance of stock
warrants, totaling $119,781, in your consolidated statements of
stockholders` deficit filed with your Form SB-2/A-3 on September
5,
2006.  In this regard, the amount reported in your Form SB-2/A-1
filed
on August 16, 2006 and referenced in our prior comment totaled
$45,435.

4. In addition, please expand your disclosure to explain the
reason
for the difference between the amount you disclose as the fair
market
value of warrants issued during the period and the amount
reflected in
the consolidated statement of stockholders` deficit.  We note from
the
explanation you provided in your response that you "issued stock
warrants both as independent equity instruments and stock warrants
sold as units."  This explanation appears to differ from your
disclosure on page F-15 that "These warrants were issued with the
common stock sold during that time."

12. Restatement of Consolidated Financial Statements, page F-19

5. Please expand your footnote 12 for all financial statements
presented in this registration statement to disclose per-share
amounts
affected for each period presented, as required by paragraph 26(a)
of
SFAS 154.

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 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 urge all persons who are responsible for the accuracy and
adequacy of the disclosure in the filing to be certain that the
filing
includes all information required under the Securities Act of 1933
and
that they have provided all information investors require for an
informed investment 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,
acknowledging that:

?	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 staff comments and the declaration
of
effectiveness 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.

      We will consider a written request for acceleration of the
effective date of the registration statement as a confirmation of
the
fact that those requesting acceleration are aware of their
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.  We
will
act on the request and, pursuant to delegated authority, grant
acceleration of the effective date.

      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.
