respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the
Registrant as of, and for, the periods presented in this quarterly report;

4.   The Registrant's other certifying officer 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 we have:

     A. Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such
disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under our supervision, to
ensure the 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 quarterly report is being prepared;

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):

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.
