Item 8.01 Other Events.

On May 13, 2005, we borrowed an additional $500,000.00 from Cornell Capital
Partners and issued our promissory note to Cornell Capital Partners in that
amount. This loan is under the same terms and conditions as the previous three
loans made January 10, 2005, February 14, 2005 and March 14, 2005. As
previously, we placed shares of common stock in escrow, this time 1,000,000
shares, and we deposited with the escrow agent 20 requests for advances under
the Standby Equity Distribution Agreement sufficient to repay the promissory
note. The promissory note bears interest at the annual rate of 12% and is
payable on or before October 21, 2005. The weekly advances will begin June 6,
2005.

Pursuant to the previous agreement entered into with Stone Street Advisors, LLC
dated January 10, 2005, we have paid Stone Street $12,500.00 from the proceeds
we have received from Cornell Capital Partners in connection with the promissory
note.
