ITEM 2.02.      RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION.

On  July  20, 2011, the registrant issued a press release regarding,  among
other  things, its revenues and earnings for the second quarter ended  June
30, 2011.  A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this
Form 8-K.

In accordance with General Instruction B.2 to the Form 8-K, the information
under  this Item 2.02 and the press release exhibit to this Form 8-K  shall
not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange
Act  of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise subject to  the
liabilities of that Section 18, nor shall such information and  exhibit  be
deemed  incorporated by reference in any filing under the Exchange  Act  or
the  Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), unless  the
registrant  expressly states that such information and exhibit  are  to  be
considered  "filed" under the Exchange Act or incorporates such information
and  exhibit  by  specific reference in an Exchange Act or  Securities  Act
filing.

The  press  release furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K may  contain
forward-looking  statements  within the  meaning  of  Section  27A  of  the
Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act and made pursuant to the
safe  harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act  of
1995, as amended.  Such forward-looking statements are based on information
presently available to the registrant's management and are current only  as
of  the date made.  Actual results could also differ materially from  those
anticipated as a result of a number of factors, including, but not  limited
to,  those discussed in the registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2010.  For those reasons, undue reliance should not
be placed on any forward-looking statement.  The registrant assumes no duty
or  obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement,  although
it  may do so from time to time as management believes is warranted  or  as
may  be  required  by  applicable securities  law.   Any  such  updates  or
revisions  may  be  made  by filing reports with the  U.S.  Securities  and
Exchange  Commission, through the issuance of press releases  or  by  other
methods of public disclosure.
