  CERTIFICATION
        OF CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER
 AND
        ACTING CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER
 PURSUANT
        TO SECTION 302(a) OF
 THE
        SARBANES-OXLEY ACT OF 2002
 
 I,
        Colin
        Halpern, certify that:
 
 1.
        I have
        reviewed this Quarterly Report of Form 10-QSB of the Company;
 
 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 statements made,
        in
        light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading
        with respect to the period covered by this report;
 
 3.
        Based
        on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial information
        included in this report, fairly present in all material respects the financial
        condition, results of operations and cash flows of the small business issuer
        as
        of, and for, the periods presented in this report;
 
 4.
        I am
        responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures
        (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the small
        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 Company, 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; and
 
 b. (omitted
        in accordance with SEC Release Nos. 33-8238 and 34-47986);
 
 c. Evaluated
        the effectiveness of the small business issuer’s disclosure controls and
        procedures and presented in this report my conclusions about the effectiveness
        of the disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered
        by this report based on such evaluation.
 
 d.
        Disclosed in this report any change in the small business issuer's internal
        control over financial reporting that occurred during the small business
        issuer's most recent fiscal quarter (the small business issuer's forth fiscal
        quarter in the case of an annual report) that has materially affected, or
        is
        reasonably likely to materially affect, the small business issuer's internal
        control over financial reporting; and
 
 5.
        I have
        disclosed based on my 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 internal controls
        over
        financial reporting.
