establishing  and  maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in
Exchange  Act  Rules  13a-14  and  15d-14)  for  the  registrant  and  have:

          (a)  designed  such  disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that

          (a)  all  significant  deficiencies  in  the  design  or  operation of
internal  controls  which  could  adversely  affect  the registrant's ability to

other  employees  who  have  a  significant  role  in  the registrant's internal
controls;  and

controls  or  in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls
subsequent  to  the date of our most recent evaluation, including any corrective
actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
