Note 6  Common Stock

    Other Comprehensive Income of $3,139,568 was recorded in the third quarter to reflect
the $5,169,888 in unrealized gain on short-term investment at September 30, 2006 as
explained in Note 5.
    
    Additional Paid-in Capital increased by $291,019 for the period's

    Shares outstanding increased by 10,000 shares and additional paid-in capital increased
by $49,790 for the periods share-based compensation relating to stock granted in the third

    In conjunction with our Series AA Convertible Preferred Stock, we are required to pay an
8% dividend on a semi-annual basis. We can make the dividend payments in cash or
equivalent shares of our common stock, at our discretion. During the quarter ended
September 30, 2006, we paid a semi-annual dividend payment of $540,000 by issuing 109,115

    In the first quarter of 2006, common stock warrants were exercised for issuance of
11,600 shares of common stock at $0.75 per share. The terms of the warrants provided for
a cashless exercise and 1,916 shares were used to exercise the warrants at the market price
of $4.54 per share, resulting in issuance of a net amount of 9,684 shares of common stock.
    
    We issued a total of 27,000 shares of common stock to a
consulting firm that is assisting
us with our investor relations program. The firm vests ownership of these shares at the
rate of 1,500 shares per month through June 2007. We have recorded $107,730 as deferred
