Item 8.01 Other Events.

In our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, we reported that we had $1,138,000 of then available cash and cash equivalents In addition, we reported that through November 9, 2007, we raised approximately $1,547,000 in a private placement with accredited investors who purchased “Units” of our securities. Each Unit was comprised of (i) one share of our Series A 12% Convertible Preferred Stock, (ii) a Common Stock Purchase Warrant exercisable for $1.50 to purchase one share of our common stock, and (iii) a Common Stock Purchase Warrant exercisable for $2.00 to purchase one share of our common stock. As a result we believed there was sufficient cash to fund operations through at least December 2007. To date, we have raised a total of approximately $1,717,500 in this private placement.

We also previously disclosed that there are no assurances that we would be able to obtain additional financing on favorable terms, or at all. We currently have approximately $1,200,000 million in cash and approximately $900,000 in liabilities. After considering relevant conditions and events and management’s plans we now expect to be able to fund operations through at least February 2008. The Company is actively pursuing additional sources of financing and other strategic alternatives. If we do not raise additional funds, substantial doubt will remain about our ability to continue as a going concern.
