      This  Amendment  No. 8 to Schedule 13D amends the  Schedule 13D  initially
filed on May 14, 1998 (collectively,  with all amendments thereto, the "Schedule
13D").

Item 2.  Identity and Background.

      The  footnote to Item 2 of the Schedule 13D is amended and restated in its
entirety as follows:

      2 Of the  Shares  reported  by FCMLLC on behalf of the  Managed  Accounts,
5,900  Shares  (equal  to  approximately  0.2 % of the  total  Shares  currently
outstanding)  are  held by the  Absolute  Return  Fund  of the  Common  Fund,  a
non-profit  corporation whose principal address is 450 Post Road East, Westport,
Connecticut 06881. 

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds and Other Consideration.

      Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is amended and supplemented by the following:

      The  net  investment   cost  (including   commissions)  is   approximately
$72,250.00  for the 8,400  Shares  acquired by FCP since the filing of the prior
Schedule 13D,  approximately  $148,000.00 for the 17,200 Shares acquired by FCIP
since the filing of the prior  Schedule 13D,  approximately  $27,512.50  for the
3,200  Shares  acquired by FCIP II since the filing of the prior  Schedule  13D,
approximately  $30,025.00  for the 3,500  Shares  acquired by FCIP III since the
filing of the prior Schedule 13D,  approximately  $8,600.00 for the 1,000 Shares
acquired by Tinicum since the filing of the prior Schedule 13D and approximately
$178,850.00  for the 20,800 Shares  acquired by the Managed  Accounts  since the
filing of the prior  Schedule  13D. On October 5, 1998,  FCIP II  purchased  800
Shares.  The net investment cost (including  commissions)  for such purchase was
inadvertently  omitted  from  Amendment  No. 6 to the  Schedule 13D filed by the
Reporting   Persons  on  October  9,  1998  with  the  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission. That cost, equal to approximately $7,350.00, is hereby reported. (3)

- -----------
      3  Notwithstanding  this  omission,  the  cover  page  for FCIP II and the
aggregate  percentages  reported in  Amendment  No. 6 to the  Schedule  13D were
correct.

                               Page 19 of 33 Pages

      The consideration for such acquisitions was obtained as follows:  (i) with
respect to FCIP, FCIP II and FCIP III, from working  capital;  (ii) with respect
to the Managed Accounts, from the working capital of each Managed Account and/or
from borrowings  pursuant to margin  accounts  maintained by some of the Managed
Accounts at Goldman,  Sachs & Co.;  and (iii) with  respect to FCP and  Tinicum,
from  working  capital  and/or  from  borrowings  pursuant  to  margin  accounts
maintained by FCP and Tinicum at Goldman,  Sachs & Co. FCP,  Tinicum and some of
the Managed Accounts hold certain securities in their respective margin accounts
at  Goldman,  Sachs & Co.,  and the  accounts  may from time to time have  debit
balances. It is not possible to determine the amount of borrowings, if any, used
to acquire the Shares.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

      Item 5 of the  Schedule  13D is amended and  restated  in its  entirety as
follows:
