[X] (a) The reasons described in reasonable detail in Part III of this form

[X] (b) The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition report on
Form 10-K, Form 20-F, 11-K or Form -SAR, or portion thereof, will be

PART III - NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q,
-SAR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the
prescribed time period.
In September 2006, the registrant changed its certifying accountants. In working
with its new independent auditors, there has been a delay in the auditors
completing their review of the current report and thus, the registrant has not
been able to file its Form 10-QSB by the due date. Management believes that it
will be able to complete and file its Form 10-QSB for the period ended September
30, 2006 within the prescribed extension period.
PART IV - OTHER INFORMATION
