To the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, none of the entities or
persons identified in this Item 2 has, during the past five years, been
convicted of any criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar
misdemeanors), nor been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or
administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such
proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining
future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to,
federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such
laws.

Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer
- ---------------------------------------------

Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended as follows:

(a),(b) According to the Issuer's most recent Form 10-Q, there were 12,671,383
shares of Common Stock outstanding as of August 31, 1999. Based on such
information, after taking into account the transactions described in Item 5(c)
below, the Reporting Persons report the following direct holdings of the Common
Stock and corresponding percentage interest of total shares outstanding:  (i)
Strategic reports direct holdings of 879,300 shares of the Common Stock (6.9%);

CUSIP NO. 889073102              SCHEDULE 13D                     Page 9 of 12

(ii) BLUM LP and RCBA Inc. report holdings of 6,200 shares of the Common Stock
(less than 1%) owned directly by the limited partnerships for which BLUM LP
serves as the general partner and BLUM LP's investment advisory client
accounts; and (iii) Mr. Blum reports the aggregate of these shares for a total
of 885,500 shares of the Common Stock (7.0%).

In addition, because BLUM LP has voting and investment power with respect to
shares that are legally owned by The Common Fund for the account of its Equity
Fund ("The Common Fund"), those shares are reported as beneficially owned by
BLUM LP.  As of the filing date, The Common Fund holds no shares of the Common
Stock.  The Common Fund is principally engaged in the business of managing
investments for educational institutions.  The principal administrative office
of The Common Fund is located at 450 Post Road East, Westport, Connecticut
06881-0909.  The Common Fund disclaims membership in a group with any of the
Reporting Persons, and disclaims beneficial ownership of any shares held by the
Reporting Persons.

Voting and investment power concerning the above shares are held solely by
BLUM LP and RCBA GP.  The Reporting Persons therefore may be deemed to be
members in a group, in which case each Reporting Person would be deemed to have
beneficial ownership of an aggregate of 885,500 shares of the Common
Stock, which is 7.0% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.  As the sole
general partner of BLUM LP, RCBA Inc. is deemed the beneficial owner of the
securities over which BLUM LP has voting and investment power.  As Chairman,
director and a substantial shareholder of RCBA Inc., Richard C. Blum might be
deemed to be the beneficial owner of the securities beneficially owned by RCBA
Inc.  Additionally, Mr. Blum might be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the
securities over which RCBA GP has voting and investment power.  Although Mr.
Blum is joining in this Schedule as a Reporting Person, the filing of this
Schedule shall not be construed as an admission that he, or any of the other
shareholders, directors or executive officers of RCBA Inc., or managing members
and members of RCBA GP, is, for any purpose, the beneficial owner of any of the
securities that are beneficially owned by RCBA Inc. or RCBA GP, except to the
extent of any pecuniary interest therein.
