(1)  I have reviewed the Report being filed;

(2)  Based on my knowledge, the 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
information included in the Report, fairly present in all material respects the
financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the issuer as of,
and for, the periods presented in the Report;

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

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

materially affect, the Registrant's internal control over financial reporting;
and

(5)  The small business issuer's other certifying officer(s) and I have

financial reporting, to the Registrant's auditors and the audit committee of the
Registrant'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 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.
