purposes of executing, acknowledging, delivering and filing Forms 3, 4s or
5s (including amendments thereto) and agrees to reimburse the Company and
such attorney-in-fact for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred
in connection with investigating or defending against any such loss, claim,
damage, liability or action.

	This Power of Attorney shall remain in
full force and effect until the undersigned is no longer required to file
Forms 3, 4s and 5s with respect to the undersigned's holdings of and
transactions in securities issued by the Company, unless earlier revoked by
the undersigned in a signed writing delivered to the foregoing
attorney-in-fact.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has caused this
Power of Attorney to be executed as of this 23rd day of August, 2005.
