Message: Well it wasn't this week and day 140.

That was a good point.

Here the SEC rule:

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

17 CFR PARTS 228, 229, 230, 239, 240 and 249

[RELEASE NOS. 33-8400; 34-49424; File No. S7-22-02]

RIN 3235-AI47

ADDITIONAL FORM 8-K DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS AND ACCELERATION OF FILING DATE

AGENCY: Securities and Exchange Commission.

Action: Final rule.

Summary: We are expanding the number of events that are reportable on Form 8-K under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These amendments add eight new items to the form, transfer two items from the periodic reports and expand disclosures under two existing Form 8-K items. Due to the increase in reportable events under the form, we are reorganizing the Form 8-K items into topical categories. The amendments also shorten the Form 8-K filing deadline for most items to four business days after the occurrence of an event triggering the disclosure requirements of the form. Finally, we are adopting a limited safe harbor from liability for failure to file certain of the required Form 8-K reports. These amendments are responsive to the "real time issuer disclosure" mandate in Section 409 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. They are intended to provide investors with better and faster disclosure of important corporate events.

Effective Date: August 23, 2004.
