business  issuer  and  have:

     a)  Designed  such  disclosure  controls  and  procedures,  or  caused such
   disclosure  controls  and  procedures to be designed under my supervision, to
   ensure  that  material  information  relating  to  the small business issuer,

   within  those  entities,  particularly during the period in which this report
   is  being  prepared;

   is  reasonably  likely  to  materially  affect,  the  small business issuer's
   internal  control  over  financial  reporting;  and

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

     a)  All  significant  deficiencies  and  material  weaknesses in the design
   or  operation  of  internal  control  over  financial   reporting  which  are
   reasonably  likely  to  adversely  affect the small business issuer'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 small business issuer's
