Item 2.03.  Creation of a Direct Financial  Obligation or an Obligation under an
            Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant

     From October 11, 2005 through  October 14, 2005, the Registrant  issued two
promissory  notes in the  aggregate  amount of  $50,000  to two  individuals  in
exchange  for loans in the same  amount.  These  notes bear  interest at 10% per
annum,  payable monthly, and all principal and interest is due at maturity after
nine  months or earlier at the option of each  holder  upon a Change in Control.
"Change  in  Control"  is  defined  as  (i) a  consolidation  or  merger  of the
Registrant  with or into any  other  corporation  or  corporations  or any other
transaction  in which the  holders  of the  Registrant's  outstanding  shares of
capital  stock  immediately   before  such   consolidation  or  merger  do  not,
immediately  after such  consolidation  or merger,  retain stock  representing a
majority of the voting power of the surviving  corporation of such consolidation
or  merger,  (ii)  the sale of all or  substantially  all of the  assets  of the
Registrant  or (iii) any  occurrence  as a result of which  more than 50% of the
voting capital stock of the Registrant is held by a person or persons other than
a current holder or current holders of more than 50% of the voting capital stock
of the Registrant.

     In the event  that a Note is not  repaid in full  within  ninety  (90) days
following the maturity date, additional interest is due and payable in an amount
equal to twenty-five percent (25%) of the unpaid amount. Thereafter,  additional
interest accrues each sixty (60) days in an amount equal to twenty-five  percent
(25%) of the unpaid amount.

     Each Note is convertible into shares of the Registrant's common stock at an
exercise  price equal to 85% of the average of the mean of the closing "bid" and
"ask"  prices of the  Registrant's  common  stock for the ten (10)  trading days
immediately prior to the date of exercise.

     Each Note is subject to earlier  repayment at the option of the holder upon
an event of default, which includes:

o    The Registrant's  failure to pay the principal of or accrued interest on or
     late charges due under the Note within five (5) business days following the
     date when due.

o    The Registrant's  default in any payment of principal of or interest on any
     obligations  for  borrowed  money  (other than under the Note,  or any such
     obligation  payable to the holder) or for the  deferred  purchase  price of
     property,  if the  effect is to  cause,  or to  permit  the  holder of such
     obligation  to cause,  such  obligation  to become  due prior to its stated
     maturity.

o    The Registrant's voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy.

o    Entry of one or more  judgments  against the  Registrant  in the  aggregate
     amount of Two Hundred  Thousand  ($200,000) or more, if the Registrant does
     not obtain satisfaction, release, stay or dismissal within thirty (30) days
     thereof.

     In addition,  the holders of the Notes were issued  warrants to purchase an
aggregate of 25,000 shares of the Registrant's common stock at an exercise price
of $0.01 per share.



                                   SIGNATURES

     Pursuant to the  requirements  of the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, the
Registrant  has duly  caused  this  report  to be  signed  on its  behalf by the
undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
