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

4.   I  am  the  small  business  issuer's  sole  certifying  officer and I am
responsible  for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures
(as  defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) and internal control
over  financial  reporting  (as  defined  in  Exchange  Act Rules 13a-15(f), and

     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 small
          business  issuer, 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  provide  reasonable  assurance  regarding  the
          reliability  of  financial reporting, and the preparation of financial
          statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted
          accounting  principles;

     c)   evaluated  the effectiveness of the small business issuer's disclosure
          controls  and  procedures and presented in this report our 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;  and

     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  fourth  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  am  the  small  business  issuer's  sole 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  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  control  over  financial  reporting.
