The undersigned hereby constitutes and appoints David Arroyo, Kathryn Murray,

or any of them, as the undersigned's true and lawful attorney-in-fact to:
(1) execute for and on behalf of the undersigned, in the undersigned's
capacity as an officer and/or director of the Company, Forms 3, 4 and 5 in
accordance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "Exchange Act"), and the rules and regulations thereunder;
(2) do and perform any and all acts for and on behalf of the undersigned
that may be necessary or desirable to complete and execute any such Forms 3, 4
and 5 and timely file such forms with the Securities and Exchange Commission
and any stock exchange or similar authority, if required; and
(3) take any other action of any type whatsoever in connection with the
foregoing that, in the opinion of such attorney-in-fact, may be of benefit to,
in the best interest of, or legally required by, the undersigned, it being

The undersigned hereby grants to each such attorney-in-fact full power and
authority to do and perform each and every act and thing whatsoever requisite,

unless earlier revoked by the undersigned in a signed writing delivered to the
foregoing attorneys-in-fact.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has caused this Power of Attorney to be
