2.
       Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement
      of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the

3.
       Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial

4.
       The registrant's other certifying officer(s) and I are responsible for
      establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined

      reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) for the
      registrant and have:





a)
      Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such disclosure
      controls and procedures to be designed under our supervision, to ensure that
      material information relating to the registrant, including its consolidated
      subsidiaries, is made known to us by others within those entities, particularly
      during the period in which this report is being prepared;




b)
      Designed such internal control over financial reporting, or caused such internal
      control over financial reporting to be designed under our supervision, to

      and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance
      with generally accepted accounting principles;





c)
      Evaluated the effectiveness of the registrant's disclosure controls and

      affect, the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting;
      and





5.
       The registrant's other certifying officer(s) and I have disclosed, based
      on our most recent evaluation of internal control over financial reporting,
      to
      the registrant's auditors and the audit committee of registrant's board of
      directors (or persons performing the equivalent function):





a)
      all
      significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation
      of
      internal controls over financial reporting which are reasonably likely to
      adversely affect the registrant's ability to record, process, summarize and
      report financial information; and





b)
      Any
      fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees
      who
      have a significant role in the registrant's internal control over financial
      reporting.
