                              STATEMENT ON SCHEDULE 13D

         This Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D is filed by ASSI, Inc., a 
Nevada corporation ("ASSI"), and Louis Habash ("Habash") to amend and update 
the Schedule 13D dated August 3, 1996, which was previously amended by 
Amendment No. 1 dated October 10, 1996 (the "Original Schedule 13D"). All 
capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings 
assigned to them in the Original Schedule 13D. Items not included in this 
Amendment are either not amended or not applicable.

         The purpose of this Amendment No. 2 is to reflect the acquisition by 
ASSI of 1,100,000 shares of common stock of the Company in exchange for 
warrants held by ASSI to acquire 4,816,657 shares of Common Stock of the 
Company in connection with a Settlement Agreement dated as of April 27, 1998 
by and among ASSI, the Company and certain other parties (the "Settlement 
Agreement").



Item 3.  SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

         Item 3 is amended to read as follows:

         ASSI beneficially owns 1,140,000 shares of Common Stock.  Of this 
amount, 40,000 shares were purchased from another shareholder of the Company 
in October 1995 for $200,000 and the remaining 1,100,000 shares were acquired 
from the Company as part of the Settlement Agreement in exchange for 
4,816,657 warrants held by ASSI.  Of these warrants exchanged by ASSI, 
2,000,000 warrants were acquired in April 1996 in exchange for consulting

                                  Page 4 of 7 Pages

<PAGE>

services provided by ASSI to the Company, and the balance was purchased as
follows: (1) 800,000 warrants were purchased from the Company in October 1995 
as part of a purchase of 1,100,000 warrants for $55,000 in connection with 
a private offering of notes and warrants by the
Company, and (ii) 2,016,657 warrants were acquired in July 1996 upon conversion
of $504,164 in principal and accrued interest on an outstanding loan by ASSI to
the Company.  All funds used to purchase the 40,000 shares and the purchased
warrants were working capital funds of ASSI.

Item 4.  PURPOSE OF TRANSACTIONS.

         Item 4 is amended to read as follows:

         The shares of Common Stock purchased by ASSI were purchased as an 
investment based on the belief of ASSI that they provided an opportunity for 
long-term appreciation.

         (a)  In connection with the Settlement Agreement, ASSI and Habash 
have agreed pursuant to a lock-up agreement that during the period commencing 
April 24, 1998 and ending May 30, 1999, they will not, without the prior 
written consent of the Company, sell or otherwise encumber their shares of 
Common Stock of the Company in an aggregate amount in excess of the product 
of 94,620 times the number of full calendar months (commencing with the month 
of May 1998) elapsed since April 24, 1998.

         (b)-(c)   None.

         (d)  Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Company's Board of 
Directors has been increased from five (5) to seven (7) members and Richard 
Azevedo, Samuel Poole, Wayne Rogers and John Wholihan have been appointed to 
fill the four (4) vacant board seats. In addition, under the Settlement 
Agreement, the Company has agreed to identify and engage a qualified chief 
financial officer within ninety (90) days or as soon as otherwise practicable 
as determined by the Board of Directors or a committee thereof.

         (e)- (j)  None.

Item 5.  INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

         Item 5 is amended to read as follows:

         (a)  As of the date of this Schedule, ASSI was the beneficial owner 
of 1,140,000 shares of Common Stock representing approximately 20.3% of the 
5,615,099 shares of Common Stock outstanding based upon the information 
contained in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB for the period 
ending December 31, 1997.

         As sole shareholder of ASSI, Habash beneficially owns all of the
shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by ASSI.

         Except for the currently exercisable portion of the option issued to 
James under the Company's 1995 Stock Option Plan, as described under Item 6 
below, Burroughs and James are not the beneficial owner of any shares of 
Common Stock and specifically disclaim any beneficial ownership in the shares 
of Common Stock beneficially owned by ASSI.

         (b)  ASSI has sole power to vote or direct the vote and to dispose or
direct the disposition of the 1,140,000 shares of Common Stock beneficially
owned by it.  Habash, as sole shareholder of ASSI, shares the power to vote or
direct the vote, and to dispose or direct the disposition of, the Common Stock
held by ASSI.

<PAGE>

         (c)  On April 27, 1998, ASSI, the Company, and certain other parties 
entered into the Settlement Agreement dated as of April 24, 1998 relating to 
certain disputes which had arisen among the parties, including certain 
lawsuits filed against the Company, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer 
Vincent Bitetti and President and Chief Operating Officer Ulrich Gottschling 
by The Boston Group, Inc., ASSI, Inc. and Mark James. The lawsuits had 
alleged breach of contract concerning Board of Directors nominations and 
breach of duty with respect to an attempt to increase the size of the Board 
of Directors and fill the new positions with managements' nominees. As part 
of the settlement of those disputes, the board of Directors was increased to 
seven (7) members and ASSI exchanged warrants to purchase 4,816,657 shares of 
Common Stock of the Company for 1,100,000 shares of Common Stock of the 
Company, subject to the lock-up agreement described under Item 4(a) above. 
The parties to the Settlement Agreement acknowledged that there were multiple 
settlements under that Agreement and that the value of certain claims ASSI 
had against the Company and which were being released had been factored into 
the exchange by ASSI of its warrants for shares of Common Stock of the 
Company.

         (d)-(e)   Not applicable.

Item 6.  CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT
         TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

         Item 6 is amended to read as follows:

         In April 1996, ASSI entered into a Stockholder Voting Agreement with 
the Company, Vincent J. Bitetti and Eric Winston, under which Messrs. Bitetti 
and Winston agreed to vote their shares in favor of ASSI's nominee to the 
Board of Directors, which was to have five members. In addition, under the 
Voting Agreement, ASSI agreed to vote in favor of two nominees to the Board 
of Directors selected by Mr. Bitetti for so long as Mr. Bitetti owned at 
least 20% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the 
Company, and one nominee selected by Mr. Bitetti for so long as he owned less 
than 20% but at least 10% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common 
Stock of the Company.

         Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Company received the 
consent of ASSI to certain matters relating to the existing Voting Agreement 
(the "Consent"). Among other things, the Consent provides that as between the 
Company, ASSI, The Boston Group, L.P. and Vincent J. Bitetti, the nominees 
for the new seven-person Board of Directors will be determined as follows: up 
to two persons may be nominated by Bitetti as long as he holds 750,000 or 
more shares of the Company's Common Stock (but only one person, if Bitteti 
holds more than 500,000 and less than 750,000 shares, and no person if 
Bitetti holds 500,000 or fewer shares); one person may be nominated by ASSI 
as long as it holds 500,000 or more shares of the Company's common stock (but 
no person if ASSI holds fewer than 500,000 shares); up to two persons may be 
nominated by The Boston Group, L.P. (including as assignee of the rights of 
Joseph Stevens & Company, L.P.) pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement dated 
July 1, 1996 among the Company, The Boston Group, L.P. and Joseph Stevens & 
Company, L.P. (the "Underwriting Agreement") so long as it may be in effect 
in pertinent part; one person (an "Expansion Member") may be nominated by Mr. 
Bitetti (subject to approval of such person by ASSI (unless a renomination of 
a presently serving nominee)); and one person (another "Expansion Member") 
may be nominated by ASSI (subject to approval of such person by Mr. Bitetti 
(unless a renomination of a presently serving nominee)). Each Expansion 
Member must be independent of the Company and the person nominating such 
Expansion Member and must meet certain other requirements set forth in the 
Consent. Mark James is ASSI's nominee pursuant to the Voting Agreement and 
the Consent and John Wholihan is ASSI's Expansion Member nominee pursuant to 
the Consent.

         The Voting Agreement terminates on the earlier of July 8, 2001 or 
such time as Messrs. Bitetti and Winston collectively are the beneficial 
owners of less than 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock of the 
Company. Messrs. Bitetti and Winston have granted irrevocable proxies to 
ASSI, and ASSI has granted an irrevocable proxy to Mr. Bitetti, consistent 
with the terms of the Voting Agreement. The Consent automatically terminates 
upon termination of the Voting Agreement and may be terminated earlier, at 
the election of ASSI, in the event of a breach of the Settlement Agreement by 
the Company, Bitetti or Ulrich Gottschling, in which case the authorized 
number of directors will be automatically reduced from seven (7) to five (5) 
at the next annual meeting of stockholders of the Company and nominations and 
elections for the resulting five (5) member Board of Directors will be 
governed by the Voting Agreement and the Underwriting Agreement.

         Mark James was appointed a director of the Company in July 1996. 
Under the Company's 1995 Stock Option plan, each nonemployee director 
automatically receives an option to acquire 10,000 shares of Common Stock 
upon appointment and for each year of service on the Board of Directors. 
James has received an option to purchase 10,000 shares of Common Stock at 
$4.5625 per share, vesting 50% annually beginning July 10, 1997. In July 
1997, James received an additional option to purchase 10,000 shares of 
Common Stock at $1.00 per share, vesting 50% annually beginning July 10, 1998.
