On October 25, 2007, we announced in a press release information concerning our earnings for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2007. We are filing this Form 8-K/A to report two typographical errors in the press release. 

 

On the first page of the release, the second bullet points in both of the Third Quarter Results (change 2007 vs. 2006) and Year to Date Results (change 2007 vs. 2006) read ". . . after these charges", and should have read ". . . before these charges”, consistent with the charts and other disclosures of these figures in the release.
