Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement of a

  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

    during the period in which this report is being prepared;
 
       b.  designed such internal control over financial reporting, or caused such

  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.
