PART III -- NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR,
N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within
the prescribed time period.

         The Registrant has experienced significant delays in the preparation of
its financial statements and related disclosure, and, therefore, the
registrant's auditors have experienced delays in initiating their review of the
registrant's financial statements. As a result, the Registrant is unable,
without unreasonable effort or expense, to complete and file its Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 by August 14, 2006, the
prescribed deadline for filing. No anticipated filing date can be given at this
time.

SEC 1344 (03-05) Persons who are to respond to the collection of
                 information contained in this form are not required to respond
                 unless the form displays a currently valid OMB control number.

PART IV -- OTHER INFORMATION

(1)  Name and telephone number of person to contact in regard to this
     notification

         J. Michael Moore           (972)               458-8500
         ----------------        -----------        ------------------
             (Name)              (Area Code)        (Telephone Number)

(2)  Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of the
     Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act
     of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the
     registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed ? If answer is
     no, identify report(s).

                                                             [X] Yes    [ ] No

(3)  Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from
     the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the
     earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion
     thereof?

                                                             [X] Yes    [ ] No

     If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively
     and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable
     estimate of the results cannot be made.

          The Registrant anticipates that it will report a significant change in
its results of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June
30, 2006 compared to the same periods in the prior fiscal year. Based on the
information available to us at this time, the unaudited financial results for
the second quarter and six-month period ending June 30, 2006 include the
following:

     o    Estimated net service revenue of $4.4 million as compared to $9.7
          million in 2005 for the three months ended June 30; the difference
          attributed to a $5.1 million decrease in temporary and contract
          staffing revenue as several contractors were hired full-time by
          clients, pursued other opportunities or eliminated due to their
          low-margins. There was also a $0.2 million decrease in direct
          placement revenue as staffing levels decreased during the quarter.

     o    Estimated net service revenue of $12.0 million as compared to $19.1
          million in 2005 for the six months ended June 30; the difference
          attributed to a $7.2 million decrease in temporary and contract
          staffing revenue and a $.1 million increase in direct placement
          revenue due to the increased direct placement sales in the first
          quarter.

     o    Estimated gross profit of $2.1 million as compared to $3.6 million in
          2005 for the three months ended June 30; as well as an estimated gross
          profit of $5.2 million as compared to $6.9 million in 2005 for the
          six-months ended June 30.

     o    The estimated net loss applicable to common shareholders is still
          being calculated.

These results will likely change, as the auditors have not yet completed their
review of the second quarter 2006 financial statements. Also, the results will
likely change after the calculation of option and warrant expenses is included.
Further, management will have to review with the auditors whether a non-cash
charge of some or all of the Company's goodwill is accrued.

To be included as subsequent events, the Company has sold its nursing unit. This
eliminates a losing division from our operations, reflecting in its value as it
was sold at a loss. Due to the Company's financial condition, we have lost a
significant amount of business, sales, and staff in the third quarter. Thus,
management has continued to consolidate operations, cut costs, and implemented
the use of virtual offices. Currently, the Company is delinquent in its latest
IRS tax payments and the filing of its 2nd quarter tax report; therefore,
funding at its lender has been suspended.

Management is reviewing two other strategic changes including diversification of
the Company into oil and gas or real estate based on discussions with a few
potential outside investors.
