785 PARTNERS: Can File Schedules and Statements By Sept. 12
-----------------------------------------------------------
Judge Stuart M. Bernstein of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of New York extended the time by which 785
Partners LLC must file its schedules of assets and liabilities,
statements of financial affairs and lists of executory contracts
and unexpired leases, as required by Rule 1007(c) of the Federal
Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure, through Sept. 12, 2011.

The Court's ruling is without prejudice to the Debtor's right to
seek additional extensions upon proper motion and cause shown.

                      About 785 Partners LLC

785 Partners LLC owns a 42-story building on 785 Eighth Avenue,
New York.  The developer intended to sell 122 condominium units,
but it failed to obtain the requisite condominium approvals from
the New York State Attorney General.

The Company obtained $84 million of secured financing in January
2007 from PB Capital Corporation, and TD Bank, N.A.  First
Manhattan later bought the secured claim and says the claim has
risen to $101 million, which is higher than the market value of
the property.

785 Partners LLC filed a Chapter 11 petition (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case
No. 11-13702) on Aug. 3, 2011.  Andrew K. Glenn, Esq., at
Kasowitz, Benson, Torres & Friedman LLP, in New York, serves as
counsel to the Debtor.  The Debtor estimated assets and debts of
$100 million to $500 million.  The petition was signed by Kevin
O'Sullivan, co-manager.


785 PARTNERS: Sept. 15 Hearing on Lender's Case Dismissal Plea
--------------------------------------------------------------
The Honorable Stuart M. Bernstein of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for
the Southern District of New York will hold a hearing on Sept. 15,
2011, at 10:00 a.m., to consider a motion filed by First Manhattan
Developments REIT for the dismissal of 785 Partners LLC's Chapter
11 case.

Objections to the Dismissal Motion should be filed with the Court
no later than Sept. 8, at 4:00 p.m.

As previously reported by The Troubled Company Reporter on
Aug. 24, 2011, First Manhattan is seeking the dismissal of 785
Partners' bankruptcy case or in the alternative, relief from the
automatic stay to allow it to complete a foreclosure action.
First Manhattan argued that dismissal of the bankruptcy case is
warranted "for several independent reasons, including: (i) the
case was filed in 'bad faith', (ii) the Debtor has not, and cannot
pay the expenses necessary to preserve and maintain the Real
Property, (iii) the Debtor has no equity in the Real Property,
(iv) the value of the Real Property is diminishing and, (v) the
case was filed with no reasonable prospect for rehabilitation or
reorganization."

The subject Real Property is owned by the Debtor located at, 306
West 48th Street, or 785 Eighth Avenue, New York, New York.  A 42-
story building was constructed on the property with the intent to
sell 122 condominium units, but the developer failed to obtained
the requisite condominium approvals from the New York State
Attorney General.

The Troubled Company Reporter, citing Chapter11Cases.com, noted
that First Manhattan acquired its claims from PB Capital
Corporation, as Administrative Agent for lenders PB Capital
Corporation and TD Bank, N.A., which initially provided
$84 million in secured financing to 785 Partners in January 2007.
First Manhattan Developments asserts it now holds a claim of
approximately $101 million, but that the fair market value of the
property is less than the amount of its claim.  The initial
lenders began foreclosure proceedings in September 2010 and a
summary judgment hearing was scheduled to occur on Aug. 3 but was
stayed by the bankruptcy filing.

                      About 785 Partners LLC

785 Partners LLC filed a Chapter 11 petition (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case
No. 11-13702) on Aug. 3, 2011.  Andrew K. Glenn, Esq., at
Kasowitz, Benson, Torres & Friedman LLP, in New York, serves as
Counsel to the Debtor.  The Debtor estimated assets and debts of
$100 million to $500 million.  The petition was signed by Kevin
O'Sullivan, co-manager.


785 PARTNERS: Wants to Hire Proskauer Rose as Counsel
-----------------------------------------------------
785 Partners LLC seeks permission from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Southern District of New York to employ Proskauer Rose LLP
as counsel nunc pro tunc to Aug. 10, 2011.

The Debtor says it requires Proskauer to act as its counsel foe
insolvency and related matters and to render legal services
relating to the day-to-day administration of its Chapter 11 case.

Among other things, Proskauer is expected to advise the Debtor in
its powers and duties as a Chapter 11 debtor; advise the Debtor on
bankruptcy law; prepare motions, orders and other legal papers;
prosecure and defend litigation matters that may arise; and
represent the Debtor in proceedings and hearings before the
Bankruptcy Court.

The Debtor propose that Proskauer's fees will be paid by its
affiliate, Time Square Development Group, Inc.  The firm will be
paid a $200,000 advance fee payment on connection with the
representation.

Proskauer's hourly fees are $500-$995 for partners; $400-$810 for
senior counsel; $195-$700 for associates and other attorneys and
$125 to $295 for paraprofessionals.  As an accommodated to the
Debtor, the firm agreed that its fee requests will reflect a
voluntary 10% reduction of its general prevailing rates.

The primary Proskauer attorneys anticipated to work for the Debtor
are Sheldon I. Hirshon, Craig A. Damast, Lawrence S. Elbaum and
Richard J. Corbi.

Sheldon I. Hirshon, a partner at Proskauer, assures the Court that
his firm's professionals do not hold or represent any interest
adverse to the Debtor and that his firm is a "disinterested
person" within the meaning of Section 101(14) of the Bankruptcy
Code.

ALLEGHENY NATURAL: Asks Court to Dismiss TriEnergy Oil Petition
---------------------------------------------------------------
Allegheny Natural Resources, Inc., as the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Western District of Pennsylvania to dismiss the petition
of TriEnergy Oil and Gas, Inc. Per Rule 12(b)(1), Lack of Subject
Matter Jurisdiction.

Petitioner TriEnergy has filed a summons to Debtor in this
involuntary Bankruptcy ("Petition").

The Debtor denies that is owes TriEnergy any sums as claimed.
TriEnergy failed to claim any amount in its Petition.  TriEnergy
has filed suit in the Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny County,
Pennsylvania at GD11-00572 claiming $76,132.56 (the "suit").

The Debtor has filed a Counterclaim in the TriEnergy suit averring
that TriEnergy had negligently prepared a Lease Report for
property it owned as the Neal Lease affirmatively stating that
Neal earned 100% of the drilling rights when Neal only owed 25%.
ANR lost $157,794 when it was forced to abandon the well it
drilled and lost $300,000 in anticipated gas revenues.

As reported in the TCR on July 20, 2011, the Debtor asked the
Bankruptcy Court to dismiss the involuntary Chapter 11 petition
filed against it.

Allegheny denies owing any sums to the petitioning creditors.
Allegheny says it is generally paying its debts as they become due
except those that are subject to dispute.

Allegheny denies owing $1 million to Interstate Gas Marketing,
Inc.  Allegheny says IGM does business as and trades as Northeast
Energy Management Inc., under which name it drills IGM wells.
Allegheny contends that as of the petition date, IGM d/b/a and t/a
NEM owes Allegheny $4,067.

Allegheny also says it does not owe Aven Oil and Gas Inc.
$1 million.  Allegheny explains it has expended $438,819 against
Aven's advance of $639,000 as an investment in certain wells.
Allegheny says the cost to complete those wells will be $208,488,
at which time Allegheny will be owed $3,307 for the drilling phase
of the operations.  Currently, ANR is holding $10,511 for
production revenue which will be used to offset sums owed by Aven
upon completion of the project.

Allegheny also denies owing $1 million to Craig Berland.
Allegheny says an original contract was with a company called
Systems 3 Inc. of which, Craig Berland, was president.  Systems 3
Inc. originally invested $250,000 in ANR Drilling Venture 2008 and
2009 programs, both of which were Turnkey Contract with no
provision for refuds.  Both of the programs were later transferred
to the Berland Family Trust.  At that time, Mr. Berland, as an
"individual" was not party to the Agreements.  As of the Petition
Date, ANR owes Berland Family Trust $5,112 in production revenue.
There are no other refunds due Systems 3 Inc. for the drilling
programs.

                About Allegheny Natural Resources

Based in Sewickley, Pennsylvania, Allegheny Natural Resources Inc.
operates 66 gas wells in Pennsylvania and has more than 1,200
acres under lease in Jefferson County.  Allegheny was named in an
involuntary Chapter 11 bankruptcy petition (Bankr. W.D. Pa. Case
No. 11-24265) on July 5, 2011.

The petitioning creditors Aven Gas & Oil, Inc., Interstate Gas
Marketing, Inc., and Craig Berland allege they are owed $1 million
each.  The petitioning creditors are represented by Robert O.

ALROSE KING: Taps Farrell Fritz as Attorney
-------------------------------------------
Alrose King David LLC asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Eastern District of New York for permission to employ Farrell
Fritz PC for legal advice with respect to the Debtor's powers and
duties as a debtor-in-possession in the continued operation of its
business and management of its property.

The firm will charge the Debtor's estate for reimbursement of
expenses in a manner and at rates consistent with charges made
generally to the firm's client outside bankruptcy.

The Debtor assures the Court that the firm is a "disinterested
person" within the meaning of Section 101(14) of the Bankruptcy
Code.

Alrose King David LLC is a special entity established by the
Alrose Group to own the 143-room, beachfront hotel property called
the Allegria Hotel & Spa in Long Beach, Long Island.

Alrose King David filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection
(Bankr. E.D.N.Y. Case No. 11-75361) in Brooklyn on July 28, 2011,
estimating between $10 million and $50 million in both debts and
assets.  Judge Dorothy Eisenberg presides over the case.  Patrick
T. Collins, Esq., at Farrell Fritz, P.C., serves as bankruptcy
counsel.  The petition was signed by Allen Rosenberg, managing
member.


ALROSE KING: Creditor Wants Receiver to Take Over
-------------------------------------------------
DCI Design Communications, Inc., asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Eastern District of New York to:

   (a) abbreviate or vacate the automatic stay as debtor Alrose
       King David LLC is a single asset real estate entity as
       defined by the Bankruptcy Code;

   (b) install Anthony J. Cincotta, the receiver appointed by the
       New York Supreme Court in March 2011, after trial, as the
       debtor-in-possession, having filed a bond and served a
       Notice to Attorn on the Debtor and the latter, whose
       general partner is Allen Rosenberg, having contemptuously
       refused to honor the order of the Supreme Court having been
       served upon the Debtor more than 20 days prior to the
       Petition Date;

   (c) recognize the Debtor and Alrose Allegria LLC as one and the
       same substantive entity and add Alrose Allegria LLC to the
       caption of this bankruptcy proceeding and including its
       assets and revenues, withheld from the parties and the
       Receiver in the Supreme Court, in this Chapter 11
       proceeding; and

   (d) address the issue of fraudulent and preferential transfers
       by the Debtor and Alrose Allegria to avoid required
       payments under the New York State Lien Law and as evidence
       of the conspiracy to defraud creditors of Alrose King David
       LLC and, as evidence of the amalgation of the Debtor and
       Alrose Allegria into one common entity whose general
       partner is Allen Rosenberg so as not to permit Mr.
       Rosenberg to commit a fraud upon the Bankruptcy Court and
       the creditors in this Chapter 11 case.

Joseph T. Adragna, Esq., in Huntington, New York -- argues that
notwithstanding the bankruptcy filing and the automatic stay, the
Debtor and Mr. Rosenberg continue to be in contempt of the Supreme
Court order and Mr. Cincotta continues to be in legal possession
of the Debtor's property.  The filing of bankruptcy by the Debtor
does not whitewash Mr. Rosenberg's contempt nor does it divest the
Receiver of his power or authority provided by the Supreme Court
some 28 days prior to the Petition Date, he insists.

                        Debtor Reacts

Counsel to the Debtor, Robert C. Yan, Esq., at Farrell Fritz,
P.C., in Uniondale, New York, argues that relief under Section
362(d)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code does not expire absent express
conditions.  It is clear that the automatic stay does not
automatically expire in the manner described by DCI and any motion
for relief under Section 362(d)(3) to the extent it is available
to DCI is premature, he contends.

Mr. Yan says the Debtor intends to file a plan of reorganization
prior to the deadline set forth in Section 362(d)(3).  The Debtor
is also engaged in ongoing discussions with, and has transmitted a
plan proposal to, its senior lenders and remains hopeful that its
efforts will result in a consensual plan of reorganization.

Mr. Yan further avers that the Receiver is not in legal possession
of the Debtor's interests pursuant to Section 543 of the
Bankruptcy Code.  Because the Receiver never took possession,
custody or control of the Debtor's interest in the Property or of
the rents, issues, revenues and profits due and unpaid to the
Debtor, there is simply nothing to excuse compliance with, he
stresses.

AMERICAN CASINO: Moody's Affirms 'B3' Corporate Family Rating
-------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service changed the Speculative Grade Liquidity
rating for American Casino & Entertainment Properties, LLC (ACEP)
to SGL-3 from SGL-2. The company's B3 Corporate Family Rating, B3
Probability of Default Rating, and B3 senior secured note ratings
were affirmed. The outlook remains negative.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The lowering in ACEP's speculative grade liquidity rating reflects
the change in its cash balance which are below Moody's previous
expectations and are not expected to increase. The reduction in
ACEP's cash balances are of greater importance due to the absence
of a revolving credit facility that could provide an alternate
source of liquidity. The lower cash balances are due in large part
to ACEP repurchasing about $20 million of its outstanding notes.

ACEP's B3 Corporate Family Rating reflects the company's small
size, high leverage, and weak interest coverage. It also
recognizes the company's revenue concentration in the depressed
gaming markets in and around Las Vegas. Positive rating
consideration includes the company's adequate liquidity profile
and Moody's expectation that ACEP can generate sufficient earnings
to support interest and maintenance capital spending during this
challenging operating environment.

The negative rating outlook reflects Moody's view that operating
results will remain weak as the operating environment in Las Vegas
gaming market will remain challenging at best and vulnerable to
any weakening again of the economy.

ACEP's ratings could be downgraded in the event it is unable to
materially improve operating performance over the intermediate
term. Specifically, ratings could be downgraded if cash balances
were to decline materially, debt (net of cash balances in excess
of $20 million) to EBITDA is sustained above 6.0 times or if
EBITDA-capex to interest drops below 1.0 times. Alternatively,
while an upgrade is not likely in the medium term , a stable
outlook could occur if a sustained improvement in revenues and
earnings resulted in stronger liquidity and improved debt
protection metrics. Moreover, ratings could be upgraded if the
company can improve and sustain gross debt/EBITDA below 3.5 times
and EBIT/interest expense around 1.5 times. A higher rating would
also require stronger liquidity.

Ratings affirmed are:

Corporate Family Rating at B3

Probability of Default Rating at B3

$375 million 11% secured notes at B3 (LGD 3, 47%)

Rating lowered;

Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating changed to SGL-3 from SGL-2

ANDRONICO'S COMMUNITY: DIP Lender Bids $20-Mil. for Assets
----------------------------------------------------------
Supermarket News reports that Andronico's Community Markets has
received a bid of $20 million from Renovo Capital, a Texas-based
private investment firm, to buy the Company and move it out of
Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.

According to the report, Renovo already owns $29 million of
Andronico's secured debt and has loaned the Company $5 million to
enable it to operate through mid-October, a chain spokesman said.

The report says two other potential buyers have expressed an
interest in acquiring Andronico's, but the spokesman declined to
indicate who they were.  However, he said that, although the
bankruptcy process requires all offers to be considered, Renovo is
likely to end up as the buyer.

If Renovo is the buyer, Andronico's anticipates its management
team and store personnel will remain in place, with the new owners
investing money immediately in inventory and physical improvements
in anticipation of the holidays, the spokesman told SN.

According to court records, Andronico's lost $4.5 million for the
first 11 months of fiscal 2011, ending in July, on sales of
$108.4 million; for the prior fiscal year, it lost $3.5 million on
sales of $121.5 million.

BLOCKBUSTER INC: Receiver Seeks to Close Remaining Canadian Stores
------------------------------------------------------------------
The receiver for Blockbuster Canada is seeking an order of the
Ontario Superior Court of Justice to close Blockbuster's remaining
retail locations and wind down operations.

The movie and video game rental chain is a casualty of consumers
shifting to downloaded, pay-per-view, streaming and mail-order
viewing options, receiver Grant Thornton Ltd. said, according to
the Edmonton Journal.

"As a result of the significant changes in Blockbuster Canada

find a suitable buyer that was willing to make necessary
investments for Blockbuster's remaining business.

Stores to be closed include the 15 remaining stores in Edmonton.

A hearing before the Ontario Court is scheduled for today, Sept.
6.

If an ordered is entered, the store closing process would begin a

BROBECK PHLEGER: Has $470,000 Settlement With Heller Ehrman
-----------------------------------------------------------
Sara Randazzo at The AM Law Daily reports that Brobeck, Phleger &
Harrison's estate has reached a $470,988 settlement with the
estate of law firm Heller Ehrman won't change the course of its
Chapter 7 proceedings.

The agreement, which must be approved by U.S. Bankruptcy Judge
Dennis Montali, settles a long-running dispute over who deserves
to get paid for work six Brobeck partners took with them to Heller
after Brobeck dissolved in 2003.

The report says both firms agreed to the sum, which represents
just 17.5 percent of the nearly $2.7 million in fees the former
Brobeck partners collected while at Heller, according to the
settlement agreement filed in court Aug. 30.

Based on the terms of Heller's bankruptcy, the $470,988 the firm's
estate agreed to pay Brobeck will eventually be reduced -- just
recently, Heller struck a deal to pay unsecured creditors between
24 cents and 33 cents on the dollar for outstanding claims.

CABI SMA: Proposes Berman Rennert as Property Tax Counsel
---------------------------------------------------------
Cabi SMA Tower I, LLLP seeks permission from the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court for the Southern District of Florida to employ Jeffrey L.
Mandler and his firm Berman Rennert Vogel & Mandler, P.A., as its
property tax counsel.

As the Debtor's property tax counsel, Berman Rennert will
prosecute previously-filed petitions regarding the 2009 and 2010
property tax assessments issued by the Miami-Dade Property Tax
Appraiser's Office, and prosecute 2011 Abatement Petitions
challenging tax assessments issued by the Property Tax Appraiser's
Office.

Berman Rennert will be paid for its services relating to tax years
2009, 2010, and 2011 on a contingent basis in the amount of one-
third (33.33%) of the actual property tax savings realized by the
Debtor.  Berman Rennert will not earn any compensation for its
work unless and until a "benefit" is received by the Debtor.  The
term "Tax Savings" will mean the difference between taxes payable
after the reduction in assessment of a particular property and the
taxes that would have been payable had no reduction been achieved,
plus any interest, any penalties, and any costs awarded with
respect thereto.

The fee arrangement encompasses any services rendered in
connection with representing the Debtor for the submission of the
Debtor's Abatement Petitions pursuant to the Property Tax
Appraiser's Office's established formal or informal procedures,
but does not include representation for any potential
administrative appeals of the Value Adjustment Board's
determinations.  If the Debtor asks that Berman Rennert either
prosecute or defend an appeal to the Circuit Court of a Value
Adjustment Board result, Berman Rennert will be paid an additional
fee, which is yet to be determined when the payment becomes
necessary.

The Debtor further asks that the Guidelines for Fee Applications
for Professionals in the Southern District of Florida in
Bankruptcy Cases be waived due to the nature of Berman Rennert's
engagement in connection with the Property Tax Matters and its
compensation structure.  Berman Rennert has sought, pursuant to
Section 328(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, payment of its fees on a
contingency basis, which is customary for the services rendered by
the firm.  The submission of detailed information regarding time
entries on an tenth of an hour basis is burdensome and unnecessary
in light of the contingent fee arrangement, according to the
Debtor.

Jeffrey L. Mandler, Esq., a shareholder at Berman Rennert Vogel &
Mandler, P.A., in Miami, Florida -- jmandler@brvmlaw.com --
disclosed that Berman Rennert performed prepetition property tax
services with respect to the 2009 real property taxes of an
affiliate of the Debtor, Cabi New River, LLC.  Cabi New River has
also filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy relief and its case is
pending before the Court as Case Number 10-49013.  Berman Rennert
also has provided, or may provide, property tax services to
affiliates of the Debtor, including, but not limited to, Chapter
11 Debtor Cabi Downtown LLC, whose post-confirmation bankruptcy
case is still pending before the Court as Case No. 09-27168, and
Cabi New River.  Berman Rennert received a pro rata distribution
in the Cabi Downtown bankruptcy case on account of its general
unsecured claim for property tax services rendered prepetition to
Cabi Downtown, he relates.

Despite those disclosures, Berman Rennert is a "disinterested
person" as that term is defined in Section 101(14) of the
Bankruptcy Code, Mr. Mandler insists.

District of California approved the transfer of the Chapter 11
case of Carter's Grove, LLC to the Bankruptcy Court for the
Eastern District of Virginia, Newport News Division.


CARTER'S GROVE: Has OK for Hirschler Fleischer as Local Counsel
---------------------------------------------------------------
Carter's Grove LLC sought and obtained permission from the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Virginia to employ
Hirschler & Fleischer, P.C. as its local bankruptcy counsel, nunc
pro tunc to Aug. 1, 2011.

As the Debtor's local bankruptcy counsel, Hirschler Fleischer will
render general legal services to the Debtor as needed throughout
the course of this Chapter 11 case, including, but not limited to
bankruptcy and restructuring, corporate, employee benefits,
employment, environmental, finance, litigation, claims analysis,
securities, and tax assistance and other advice.

The Debtor will pay Hirschler Fleischer according to its
professionals' customary hourly rates:

    Name                     Title            Rate per Hour
    ----                     -----            -------------
    Robert S. Westermann     Partner              $375
    Sheila deLa Cruz         Associate            $275
    Angela Bowers            Paralegal            $175

Hirschler Fleischer will also seek reimbursement of expenses it
will incur.

The Debtor has agreed to provide an initial retainer to Hirschler
Fleischer for $25,000 for fees and expenses to be incurred during
this bankruptcy proceeding.  The Debtor has also granted Hirschler
Fleischer a security interest in the Retainer and any subsequent
retainer to secure payment of fees and expenses as they come due.

Robert S. Westerman, Esq., a partner at Hirschler Fleischer, P.C.,
in Richmond, Virginia -- rwestermann@hf-law.com -- disclosed that
his firm represents Southern Air and Capital Interiors Air in two
mechanic's lien lawsuits against Minor Family Hotels, which entity
is controlled by Halsey Minor.  The Debtor is a legal entity which
is separate and distinct from Mr. Minor and Minor Family Hotels.
Although the Mechanic's Lien Lawsuits are wholly unrelated to the
Debtor or its business affairs, Hirschler Fleischer has, out of an
abundance of caution, obtained a waiver from the Debtor of any
potential conflicts in connection with the Mechanic's Lien
Lawsuits.

Mr. Westermann insists that Hirschler Fleisher is a "disinterested
person" within the meaning of Section 101(14) of the Bankruptcy
Code.

CHADWICK SCHOOL: Moody's Upgrades Bond Rating From 'Ba3'
--------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service has upgraded to Aa1/VMIG 1 from Ba3/SG
the rating of California Statewide Communities Development
Authority Revenue Bonds (Chadwick School), Series 2002 (the Bonds)
in conjunction with the substitution of the current letter of
credit securing the Bonds provided by Allied Irish Banks, p.l.c.
with a new direct-pay letter of credit provided by JPMorgan Chase
Bank, N.A. (the Bank) effective September 1, 2011.

SUMMARY RATING RATIONALE

The rating is based upon (i) a direct-pay letter of credit (LOC)
provided by the Bank, (ii) the structure and legal protections of
the transaction, which ensures timely payment of debt service and
purchase price to bondholders; and (iii) Moody's evaluation of the
credit quality of the bank issuing the LOC.

Moody's currently rates the Bank Aa1for its long-term other senior
obligations (OSO) rating and Prime-1 for its short term OSO
rating.

DETAILED CREDIT DISCUSSION

Interest Rate Modes and Payment

The Bonds will continue to bear interest in a weekly rate mode and
interest will be paid on the first Wednesday of each month. The
trust indenture permits conversion of the Bonds, in whole, to a
term rate mode, and the Bonds will be subject to mandatory tender
upon such conversion. Moody's rating applies to Bonds while
bearing interest in the weekly rate mode only.

Additional Bonds

The trust indenture prohibits the issuance of additional Bonds.

Flow of Funds

The trustee is instructed to draw under the LOC in accordance with
its terms for principal and/or interest in order to receive
payment in the amount due on each interest payment date, maturity
date or redemption date of the Bonds. The trustee is also
instructed to draw under the LOC by 12:30 p.m., New York time, on
each purchase date, to the extent remarketing proceeds are
insufficient.

Bonds that are purchased by the Bank due to a failed remarketing
are held by the trustee and will not be released until the trustee
has received confirmation from the Bank stating that the LOC has
been reinstated for the full amount of the purchase price drawn
for such Bonds.

Direct Pay Letter of Credit

The LOC provided by the Bank is sized for the full principal
amount of Bonds plus 55 days of interest at the maximum interest
rate applicable to the Bonds (12%). The LOC provides sufficient
coverage for the Bonds while they bear interest in the weekly rate
mode only.

Draws on Letter of Credit

Conforming draws under the LOC for principal and interest received
by the Bank at or prior to 2:00 p.m., New York time, on a business
day, will be honored by the Bank by 2:00 p.m., New York time, on
the next business day. Conforming draws under the LOC for purchase
price received by the Bank at or prior to 12:30 p.m., New York
time, on a business day, will be honored by the Bank by 2:30 p.m.,
New York time, on the same business day.

Reinstatement of Interest Draws

Draws made under the LOC for interest shall be automatically and
immediately reinstated on the 10th calendar day following the
honoring of an interest drawing unless notice is received on the
ninth calendar day following the honoring of an interest drawing
that an event of default under the reimbursement agreement has
occurred, and as a result the interest portion shall not be
reinstated. The notice of non-reinstatement of interest will
direct the trustee to cause an acceleration or mandatory tender of
the Bonds. Upon its receipt of notice from the Bank that an event
of default under the reimbursement agreement has occurred
directing an acceleration of the Bonds, the trustee shall declare
the principal and interest immediately due and payable on the
Bonds, and interest will cease to accrue upon the trustee's
declaration of acceleration. Conversely, the trustee shall cause a
mandatory tender of the Bonds on the fifth calendar day, or the
first business day thereafter if such fifth calendar day is not a
business day, following its receipt of notice from the Bank that
an event of default under the reimbursement agreement has occurred
directing the trustee to cause a mandatory tender of the Bonds.

Reimbursement Agreement Defaults

Upon an event of default under the reimbursement agreement, the
Bank may send a written notice to the trustee stating that an
event of default under the reimbursement agreement has occurred
and directing the trustee to cause an acceleration or a mandatory
tender of the Bonds. Upon its receipt of notice from the Bank that
an event of default under the reimbursement agreement has occurred
directing an acceleration of the Bonds, the trustee shall declare
the principal and interest immediately due and payable on the
Bonds, and interest will cease to accrue upon the trustee's
declaration of acceleration. Conversely, the trustee shall cause a
mandatory tender of the Bonds on the fifth calendar day, or the
first business day thereafter if such fifth calendar day is not a
business day, following its receipt of notice from the Bank that
an event of default under the reimbursement agreement has occurred
directing the trustee to cause a mandatory tender of the Bonds.
The LOC will terminate 11 days following the trustee's receipt of
notice that an event of default under the reimbursement agreement
has occurred directing a mandatory tender or an acceleration of
the Bonds, or upon the Bank's honoring of an acceleration drawing.

Substitution

Substitution of the LOC is permitted and requires a mandatory
tender of the Bonds on the substitution date. Draws for purchase
price will be made under the existing LOC and the trustee will not
surrender the existing LOC until the mandatory tender drawing has
been honored.

Expiration/Termination of the Letter of Credit

The LOC expires upon the earliest to occur of: (i) the stated
expiration date, September 1, 2014, (ii) the earlier of (a) the
date which is one business day following the date on which the
Bonds are converted to bear interest at a term interest rate for a
term interest rate period ending on the maturity date of the
Bonds, or (b) the date on which the Bank honors a drawing in
connection with such conversion, (iii) the date which is one
business day following receipt by the Bank of notice that (a) no
Bonds remain outstanding, (b) all required drawings have been
honored, or (c) a substitute letter of credit has been issued,
(iv) the date an acceleration drawing or maturity drawing is
honored by the Bank, and (v) the date which is 11 days following
receipt by the trustee of notice from the Bank specifying the
occurrence of an event of default under the reimbursement
agreement, and directing the trustee to cause a mandatory tender
or an acceleration of the Bonds.

Optional Tenders

While the Bonds are in the weekly rate mode, bondholders may
optionally tender their Bonds on any business day with at least
seven days prior written notice to the trustee and remarketing
agent.

Mandatory Tenders

The Bonds are subject to mandatory tender on the following dates:
(i) each interest rate conversion date, (ii) each letter of credit
substitution date, (iii) the first business day which is at least
five calendar days preceding the expiration date of the LOC, and
(iv) the date which is the fifth calendar day, or the first
business day thereafter if such day is not a business day,
following receipt by the trustee of notice from the Bank that an
event of default under the reimbursement agreement has occurred
directing the trustee to cause a mandatory tender of the Bonds.

Mandatory Redemption

The Bonds are not subject to mandatory redemption.

WHAT COULD CHANGE THE RATING-UP

Long-Term: The long-term rating on the Bonds could be raised if
the long-term OSO rating of the Bank was upgraded.

Short-Term: Not applicable

WHAT COULD CHANGE THE RATING-DOWN

Long-Term: The long-term rating on the Bonds could be lowered if
the long-term OSO rating of the Bank was downgraded.

Short-Term: The short-term rating on the Bonds could be lowered if
the short-term OSO rating of the Bank was downgraded.

Key Contacts

Trustee: Bank of New York Mellon

Remarketing Agent: JPMorgan Securities LLC

LAST RATING ACTION

The last rating action occurred on April 18, 2011 when the rating
was downgraded to Ba3/SG from Baa3(on watch for possible
downgrade)/VMIG 3(on watch for possible downgrade).

PRINCIPAL METHODOLOGY USED:

The principal methodology used in this rating was Moody's
Methodology for Rating U.S. Public Finance Transactions on the
Credit Substitution Approach published in August 2009.

CLAIRE'S STORES: Incurs $10.1 Million Second Quarter Net Loss
-------------------------------------------------------------
Claire's Stores, Inc., reported a net loss of $10.14 million on
$358.54 million of net sales for the three months ended July 30,
2011, compared with a net loss of $8.34 million on $334.23 million
of net sales for the three months ended July 31, 2010.

The Company also reported a net loss of $29.74 million on
$704.99 million of net sales for the six months ended July 30,

in total assets, $2.87 billion in total liabilities, and a
$40.81 million stockholders' deficit.

Chief Executive Officer Gene Kahn commented, "While we are
disappointed with our 1.4% global decline in same store sales, our
results were significantly impacted by underperformance in our
European Division.  We have identified several opportunities for
improved results and, while we believe we are well positioned for
the balance of the year, consumer spending globally continues to
be under pressure and the macro economic environment, especially
in Europe, remains uncertain.  Our Global team is dedicated and
committed to the task at hand and we are confident in their
ability to maximize our results and achieve our objectives."

preteens and teenagers, as well as for young adults in North
America and internationally.  It offers jewelry products that
comprise costume jewelry, earrings, and ear piercing services; and
accessories, including fashion accessories, hair ornaments,
handbags, and novelty items.

Based in Pembroke Pines, Florida, Claire's Stores operates under
two brands: Claire's(R), which operates worldwide and Icing(R),
which operates only in North America.  As of Jan. 31, 2009,
Claire's Stores, Inc., operated 2,969 stores in North America and
Europe.  Claire's Stores, Inc., also operates through its
subsidiary, Claire's Nippon, Co., Ltd., 213 stores in Japan as a
50:50 joint venture with AEON, Co., Ltd.  The Company also
franchises 198 stores in the Middle East, Turkey, Russia, South
Africa, Poland and Guatemala.

Claire's Stores carries 'Caa2' corporate family and probability of
default ratings, with 'positive' outlook, from Moody's Investors
Service, and 'B-' issuer credit ratings, with 'stable' outlook,
from Standard & Poor's.

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter on March 15, 2011,
Moody's upgraded Claire's Stores, Inc.'s senior secured bank
credit facilities to 'B3' from 'Caa1' and its Speculative Grade
Liquidity Rating to 'SGL-2' from 'SGL-3'. The rating outlook is
positive.

Moody's Investors Service in December 2010 upgraded Claire's
Stores' ratings, including its Corporate Family Rating and
Probability of Default Rating, to 'Caa2' from 'Caa3'.  The upgrade
reflects a decrease in Claire's probability of default given that
the company can now fully cover its interest expense.  This is due
to earnings improvement from solid comparable store sales growth,
improved merchandise margins, and continued expense discipline.

Claire's Caa2 Probability of Default Rating reflects Moody's view
that although Claire's credit metrics have improved, they remain
very weak as a result of its heavy debt load.  For the twelve
months ending Oct. 30, 2010, Claire's debt to EBITDA was very high
at 9.3 times.


CLAIRE'S STORES: Bank Debt Trades at 15% Off in Secondary Market

Participations in a syndicated loan under which Claire's Stores,
Inc., is a borrower traded in the secondary market at 84.60 cents-
on-the-dollar during the week ended Friday, Sept. 2, 2011, a drop
of 0.40 percentage points from the previous week according to data
compiled by Loan Pricing Corp. and reported in The Wall Street
Journal.  The Company pays 275 basis points above LIBOR to borrow
under the facility.  The bank loan matures on May 29, 2014, and
carries Moody's 'B3' rating and Standard & Poor's 'B' rating.  The
loan is one of the biggest gainers and losers among 70 widely
quoted syndicated loans with five or more bids in secondary
trading for the week ended Friday.

CLAUDIO OSORIO: Reaches Undisclosed Deal With Court Trustee
-----------------------------------------------------------
Paul Brinkmann at the South Florida Business Journal reports that
Claudio Osorio reached an undisclosed agreement Aug. 30, 2011,
with the bankruptcy court trustee overseeing his former company,
InnoVida Holdings.

According to the report, Mr. Osorio and his attorneys met with the
Chapter 11 trustee, Mark Meland, for two hours in the hallways of
the bankruptcy court in Miami after U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Robert
Mark told them they had to reach an agreement that day.

Attorneys involved in the negotiations said the agreement includes
promises that Mr. Osorio will launch some kind of new company, but
the nature of that company has not been disclosed.  InnoVida
manufactured construction panels from fiber composite material,
mostly for low-income housing.  But many of its assets, machinery
and patents were sold to a subsidiary of Brazilian conglomerate
Inepar.

The report notes Mr. Osorio has faced many deadlines in investor
lawsuits and in his bankruptcy to either prove he has money in the
bank or that he can start a new business.  In March, Miami-Dade
Circuit Judge Valerie Manno Schurr stripped Osorio of control over
InnoVida after he failed repeatedly to meet certain deadlines.
That case was a lawsuit filed by investor and Miami Beach
businessman Chris Korge.

If an agreement had not been reached, the InnoVida bankruptcy and
Mr. Osorio's personal bankruptcy would have been converted to
Chapter 7 liquidations, which would have stripped Osorio of
control over his remaining assets, including his $10 million home
on Star Island.

Mr. Meland's attorney, Michael Budwick, said Mr. Osorio had signed
a term sheet outlining a deal, but the final details would not be
disclosed until a bankruptcy reorganization plan is filed with the
court on Sept. 15, 2011.

At least one creditor is opposed to Mr. Osorio's bankruptcy plan.
Mr. Korge's attorney told Mark that a businessman facing investor
fraud allegations should not be allowed to reorganize under
Chapter 11.  Mr. Korge sued Mr. Osorio after losing more than
$4 million in InnoVida investments.

Attorneys also told Mark that Osorio has agreed to have his home
auctioned, and to provide some of the proceeds for launch of the
new company.

One issue still to be resolved: Mr. Osorio has been fighting
Mr. Meland's requests to turn over e-mails to his former attorney,
Robert Zarco, regarding the Mr. Korge lawsuit.

                 About InnoVida and Osorio

Receiver Mark S. Meland, at Meland Russin & Budwick, PA, filed a
Chapter 11 petition for InnoVida Holdings, LLC, fdba COEG, LLC
(Bankr. S.D. Fla. Case No. 11-17702) on March 24, 2011.  Separate
Chapter 11 petitions were also filed for these affiliates:
InnoVida MRD, LLC (Case No. 11-17704), InnoVida Services, Inc.
(Case No. 11-17705), and InnoVida Southeast, LLC (Case No. 11-
17706).  Peter D. Russin, Esq., at Meland Russin & Budwick, P.A.,
serves as bankruptcy counsel.  InnoVida Holdings has under $50,000
in assets and $10 million to $50 million in debts, according to
the petition.

Founder Claudio Eleazar and Amarilis Osorio filed a separate
Chapter 11 petition (Bankr. S.D. Fla. Case No. 11-17075) on
March 17, 2011.  Mr. Osorios is being accused of fraud and
mismanagement.

Bankruptcy Judge Robert A. Mark in Miami authorized the
appointment of Mark S. Meland as trustee for InnoVida.
Mr. Meland, who had been serving as a receiver for the business in
the wake of the allegations against Mr. Osorio, was the one who
ushered InnoVida into bankruptcy.

According to DBR, the ruling paved the way for the federal
bankruptcy watchdog assigned to the case to place Mark S. Meland
in the role.  Mr. Meland, who had been serving as a receiver for
the business in the wake of the allegations against Mr. Osorio,
was the one who ushered InnoVida into bankruptcy on March 24.


CORBIN PARK: Auction Put Off as No Deposits Received
----------------------------------------------------
Steve Vockrodt at the Kansas City Business Journal reports that a
bankruptcy auction to sell Corbin Park that was scheduled for
Aug. 30 has been put off indefinitely.

Corbin Park, L.P. and Bank of America, N.A. previously sought and
obtained the Honorable Robert D. Berger's approval of the form of
their Purchase Agreement and the bid procedures, among others,
with respect to the Debtor's property known as Corbin Park.

Bank of America is the administrative agent for Bank of America,
N.A., U.S. Bank, N.A., TierOne Bank, Regions Bank, and Compass
Bank.

Following a marketing process, the Debtor inked a deal with
Michael Schlup's Aspen Square, Inc., a Kansas corporation, to be
the stalking horse bidder at the auction.

Among other things, the Aspen Contract provides:

     * The purchase price is $14,000,000;

     * Earnest money deposit of $1,000,000;

     * The closing date will be the later of 30 days after the
       contingency expiration date or 10 days after final
       bankruptcy court approval; and

     * The Property is being purchased "as is and with all
       faults."

     * Buyer releases the Seller and Bank from all claims related
       to the Property.

The report says a hearing was scheduled for Sept. 2 to discuss
what's next among interested parties in the stalled 1.1 million-
square-foot retail development at 135th Street and Metcalf Avenue,
which has been mired in Chapter 11 bankruptcy since January 2010.

But according to a recent docket entry, the Sept. 2, 2011 hearing
was cancelled at the request of the Debtor.  No auction was held
due to certain material change in the sale procedure.

According to the report, the auction, already imperiled by the
Aug. 10, 2011 withdrawal of a $14 million stalking horse bidder in
Schlup, did not happen because nothing happened: No formal bid
deposits were received.

The report relates that Jeff Deines, a Lentz Clark Deines PA
partner representing the bankrupt Corbin Park LP entity, did not
respond to requests for comment but said previously that an
auction sale wasn't required by Aug. 30, 2011, if no offer, or no
suitable offer, could be found.

One source familiar with the negotiations said that parties are
interested in Corbin Park but that no organized bid could be
pulled together by Aug. 30, 2011.

The report says Schlup was a stalking horse bidder with a
$14 million claim but walked away from the project when paperwork
tied to the transfer of a Transportation Development District on
the project was moving along slowly.

Bank of America retains the option to keep the property if no
better bidder is found.

Subcontractors on Corbin Park received bad news on Aug. 25, 2011,
when a federal court judge ruled against their payment bond claims
against contractor Brown Commercial Construction Co. Inc. and its
surety, Fidelity & Deposit Co. of Maryland.

                       About Corbin Park

Based in Omaha, Neb., Corbin Park, L.P., acquired part of a 97-
acre, partially developed, shopping center known as Corbin Park in
2008.  Corbin Park sought Chapter 11 protection (Bankr. D. Kan.
Case No. 10-20014) on Jan. 5, 2010.  Carl R. Clark, Esq., and
Jeffrey A. Deines, Esq., at Lentz Clark Deines PA, represent the
Debtor.  The Debtor estimated $50 million to $100 million in
assets and $10 million to $50 million in debts as of the Petition
Date.


CORNERSTONE WORLD: Judge Dismisses Case After Deal Reached

settlement with Ohio builder Cincinnati United Contractors in U.S.
Bankruptcy Court in Sioux City and dismissed Cornerstone's Chapter
11 filing.

According to the report, the agreement also ended the legal
dispute the church and the builder, which filed a $4.99 million
lien after it wasn't paid for work on the church's new worship
center.

The report notes the bankruptcy filing can be reopened if there is
a dispute about the agreement or Edmonds' order.

The Journal notes the agreement requires Cornerstone to pay off a
$5.25 million loan to Cincinnati United over 30 years with a six-
year balloon payment.  The loan will be backed by a first mortgage
on church properties at 1603 and 1625 Glen Ellen Road.  Cincinnati
United would also have a second mortgage on the church's old
location at 6000 East Gordon Drive.

In addition, the church also gave Cincinnati United a mortgage on
85 acres of farmland near the new church buildings.  It agreed to
sell the farmland and give the net proceeds to Cincinnati United.
The settlement does not address any other creditors, including a
$250,000 loan from Sioux Cityan Melissa Tjeerdsma, but an attorney
for Cornerstone noted at hearing that none of the church's
creditors objected to the agreement.


CROATAN SURG: Hearing on Further Cash Collateral Use Tomorrow
-------------------------------------------------------------
On Aug. 1, 2011, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern
District of North Carolina entered its Fifth Interim Consent Order
authorizing Croatan Surf Club use of cash collateral, effective as
of July 1, 2011, until Sept. 7, 2011, unless earlier terminated
for cause.  A further hearing on the Debtor's Motion and continued
use of collateral will be held on Sept. 7, 2011, at 10:00 a.m.

Royal Bank America and Edwards Family Partnership LP assert claims
against the Debtor that are allegedly secured by accounts or other
cash collateral:

A) Royal owed $20,108,549.43 as of the Petition Date.  The Debtor
disputes this amount and believes that the amount owed to Royal is
roughly $16,350,000.

B) Edwards owed $3,765,291.57 as of the Petition Date.  The Debtor
disputes this amount and believes that the amount owed to Edwards
is less.

As adequate protection, Royal and Edwards are granted post-
petition replacement liens and security interests in their
respective post-Petition collateral in the same relative priority,
including Cash Collateral.  If the adequate protection is
insufficient, the Secured Creditors are also granted a
superpriority claim under Section 507(b) of the Bankruptcy Code.

For the months of July and August, 2011, the Debtor is allowed the
use of the Cash Collateral for the payment of the July and August
Cash Collateral Payments, to pay the July Tax Payment and the
August Tax Payment, and to pay the July Adequate Protection
Payment and the August Adequate Protection Payment.

00194) on Jan. 10, 2011.  Walter L. Hinson, Esq., at Hinson &
Rhyne, P.A., in Wilson, N.C., serve as counsel to the Debtor.

CWS ENTERPRISES: District Court Denies Interlocutory Appeal
-----------------------------------------------------------
District Judge William B. Shubb denied the request of Freidberg &
Parker for leave to file an appeal of the bankruptcy court's
interlocutory order determining the status of its claim against
CWS Enterprises, Inc.  Freidberg, a former law firm for the
debtor, claims a lien on $4,000,000 now held in a blocked bank
account.  On Oct. 21, 2009, David Flemmer, the Chapter 11 Trustee
for CWS, filed a complaint to determine the validity and extent of
the lien.  The Trustee also brought an objection to Freidberg's
claim, to be heard in connection with another adversary proceeding
involving the debtor.  A one-day trial was held on June 8, 2011,
to determine the lien issue.  On June 22, 2011, the bankruptcy
court read its findings of fact and conclusions of law on the
record, noting that "[i]t's apparent to me that the case is going
to wind up paying Mr. Freidberg everything he's entitled to, and
at that point, at this point, we don't know what that number is."

On June 28, 2011, the bankruptcy court held that Freidberg does
not have a security interest in the $4,000,000 enforceable against
the Trustee, nor was Freidberg entitled to an equitable lien on
the bank account. The bankruptcy court explicitly stated that it
was not entering a final judgment.

Freidberg seeks leave to appeal the bankruptcy court's Order,
arguing that the decision should be considered final and that,
even if it is interlocutory, the district court in its discretion
should hear the appeal.

In a Aug. 31, 2011 Memorandum and Order, Judge Shubb said granting
leave to appeal would not be appropriate.  Freidberg has not shown
that any difference of opinion exists on the legal issues
involved.  Furthermore, the bankruptcy court will have to decide
the amount Freidberg is owed regardless of whether that amount
comes from the bank account or from the debtor's other assets, so
judicial economy will not be advanced by an immediate appeal.

The case before the District Court is, CWS Enterprises, Inc., by
David Flemmer, its Chapter 11 Trustee, v. Freidberg & Parker, A
Law Corporation, No. CIV. 2:11-1833 (E.D. Calif.).  A copy of the
District Court's decision is available at http://is.gd/tpbg2jfrom

DAVID OLSEN: Fully Pays Wisc. DOT $2.4 Million
----------------------------------------------
The Business Journal reports that the Wisconsin Department of
Transportation has been paid $2.4 million -- the full amount -- on
two outstanding Freight Railroad Infrastructure Improvement
Program loans to Olsen Brothers Enterprises.

The report notes brothers David Olsen and Paul Olsen, who were the
principals of the Company, filed joint Chapter 11 bankruptcies in
December 2010.  The two loan balances were part of the claims in
those cases.

According to the report, attorney General J.B. Van Hollen said his
office worked with other creditors on a plan that would pay
secured creditors and marshal assets for the unsecured creditors.
As part of the Chapter 11 reorganization plan approved by U.S.
Bankruptcy Judge Susan Kelley on Aug. 30, 2011, Archer-Daniels-
Midland Co. bought several major assets from the bankruptcies'
estates.

That sale, which closed on Aug. 31, 2011, resulted in the
repayment of defaulted loans from 2004 and 2008 that the DOT made
to Olsen Brothers Enterprises to improve railroad infrastructure
at grain elevator/storage facilities in Oshkosh and Boscobel.


DIABETES AMERICA: Wins OK for EDG-Led Auction on Oct. 4
-------------------------------------------------------
Diabetes America, Inc., sought and obtained the Honorable Marvin
Isgur's approval to conduct an auction for substantially all of
its assets and grant bid protections to the lead bidders.

The Debtor has signed an asset purchase agreement with EDG
Partners Fund II, L.P.  Unless it is outbid at the auction, EDG
Partners will buy the assets for a cash purchase price of
$4,750,000 plus the assumption of up to $925,000 in certain
postpetition accrued liabilities.

The Court also recently approved the Debtor's employment of
WoodRock & Co. as its investment banker.  WoodRock will be paid
its "financing transaction fee" on a percentage fee basis and will
not be subject to the $250,000 minimum fee or the $150,000 minimum
fee.

Starting July 2011, the Debtor and WoodRock initiated a process
designed to evaluate all options to (i) sell all or part of the
Debtor's operating assets, (ii) raise new equity capital, (iii)
obtain new debt financing, or (iv) achieve a combination of each
option.  After extensive negotiations with the two interested
parties, the Debtor selected EDG Partners as his stalking horse
bidder.

The Debtor and EDG Partners are in the process of negotiating the
terms of a definitive asset purchase agreement.  The Term Sheet
and Asset Purchase Agreement will be subject to higher and better
offers.

According to Joshua W. Wolfshohl, Esq., at Porter Hedges LLP, in
Houston, Texas, the agreement between the Debtor and EDG Partners
will form the foundation of the Debtor's Chapter 11 plan of
liquidation.  Under the contemplated plan, an auction will be
conducted in connection with confirmation.

To induce EDG Partners to serve as the stalking horse bidder, the
Debtor has agreed to certain bid procedures and protections.

                     Bid and Sale Procedures

Only qualified bidders may participate in the bidding process.  To
become a Qualified Bidders, a potential bidder must:

   (i) Execute and deliver to WoodRock a confidentiality
       agreement prepared by the Debtor and approved by EDG
       Partners;

  (ii) Deposit $500,000, which will be nonrefundable unless the
       Qualified Bidder is not the highest and best offer as
       determined by the Court;

(iii) Submit to the Debtor an unqualified and binding cash bid
       of at least $5,250,000, plus the assumption of up to
       $925,000 in postpetition accrued non-professional
       liabilities along with an executed written agreement
       substantially in the form of the Asset Purchase Agreement;
       and

  (iv) Provide financial and other information to WoodRock, the
       Debtor, and the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors
       to allow them to make a reasonable determination as to the
       bidder's ability to consummate the contemplated sale.

The deadline for submission of Qualified Bids is Sept. 21, 2011.
If no other Qualified Bidders are identified, the Asset Purchase
Agreement between the Debtor and EDG Partners will be deemed the
highest and best bid.

The Debtor will file a notice with the Court, on or before 5:00
p.m., Central Time on Sept. 26, 2011, identifying all Qualified
Bidders as well as copies of the timely received bids.

If one or more timely Qualified Bids are received, an open auction
for the Purchased Assets will be conducted on Oct. 4, 2011, at
10:00 a.m., Central Time at the offices of Porter Hedges LLP,
located at 1000 Main Street, 36th Floor, in Houston, Texas.

The minimum overbid increments at the auction will be in an amount
not less than $150,000.

The Debtor will announce the highest and best bid at the
conclusion of the auction as well as the next highest and best
Qualified Bid.  The Debtor will seek approval of the Highest and
Best Bid at the Confirmation Hearing.  If the Qualified Bidder
submitting the Highest and Best Bid fails to consummate the
purchase of the Purchased Assets, the Debtor may seek to
consummate a sale based on the Back-Up Bid without further Court
approval.

The Debtor will return the full amount of the Alternative Buyer's
Deposit submitted by each party that is not selected as submitting
the Highest and Best Bid or the Back-Up Bid.  The Alternative
Buyer's Deposit of the party declared as the Back-Up Bid will be
returned after the closing of the sale to the Highest and Best
Bidder.  In the event that closing does not occur by the date
specified by the Back-Up Bidder in its bid, it will be entitled -
at its option -- to return of its deposit, in which case it will
no longer have the status of Back-Up Bidder.  EDG Partner's
Deposit will be returned if it is neither the Highest and Best
Bidder or the Back-Up Bidder.

EDG Partners will be reimbursed of all expenses up to a maximum of
$350,000 that it incurred in connection with the transaction if
(i) the Asset Purchase Agreement is terminated except as a result
of a breach by EDG Partners, (ii) the Debtor accepts a bid from an
alternative bidder, or (iii) a plan of reorganization approving
the sale to EDG Partners is not timely confirmed.

EAGLE CROSSROADS: $52MM Default Suit Prompted Ch. 11 Filing
-----------------------------------------------------------
Steve Green at Vegas Inc. reports that Eagle Crossroads Center LLC
filed for Chapter 11 reorganization one day before a scheduled
hearing in Clark County District Court in a lawsuit filed by Bank
of America as trustee for debt securities issued by Morgan Stanley
Capital I Inc.

According to the repot, Bank of America sued the development's
owner July 11, charging defaults under a 2007 loan agreement in
which it says $52 million is due.  "Borrower borrowed $52 million
but is not paying it back," the bank charged in the lawsuit,
adding income from the property is insufficient to satisfy the
loan obligations.

The report says a hearing on the bank's motion for appointment of
a receiver, who would run the property until it's foreclosed on
and sold, was scheduled for today.  The hearing likely will be
canceled by the bankruptcy, though the lender can ask the
bankruptcy court later for permission to proceed with the
foreclosure should another solution not be worked out with the
borrower, the report notes.

Vegas Inc. relates that the bankruptcy filing didn't include
detailed financial information, but suggested the shopping center
is worth just $38 million -- an "underwater" situation not unusual
during the recession that has slashed commercial property
valuations in the Las Vegas area.

In responding to the lawsuit seeking appointment of a receiver,
attorneys for the shopping center said Bank of America had failed
to disclose some basic facts about the case: Eagle Crossroads and
B of A already have an agreement in which all rent generated by
the property is going to a lockbox under B of A's control, notes
Vegas Inc.

"No rents are being collected by Eagle.  Indeed, not only is B of
A still collecting the rents from the property tenants from a
lockbox, but B of A is then withholding operating expenses for the
property," Vegas Inc. quotes Eagle Crossroads as stating.

Attorneys for the lender fired back, saying in a court brief:
"While it is true that plaintiff is collecting all rents, the
amount of rent collected is heavily influenced by the negotiations
undertaken by the borrower (specifically granting tenants relief
from having to pay the full amount of rent due).

"There is a disconnect in the shopping center being 98 percent
occupied and cash flow declining so significantly that borrower
cannot fulfill its obligations under the loan documents," the
lender said, according to papers filed with the court.

The bankruptcy filing was signed by Brian Good, president of
shopping center general partner Hillcrest Eagle LLC.

Based in Los Angeles, Eagle Crossroads Center LLC has a shopping
center at 6464-6512 Decatur Blvd. in North Las Vegas, just north
of the Las Vegas Beltway.

Eagle Crossroads Center, LLC, filed a Chapter 11 bankruptcy
petition (Bankr. D. Nev. Case No. 11-23749) on Aug. 30, 2011.
Thomas H. Fell, Esq., at Gordon Silver, in Las Vegas, Nevada,
serves as counsel to the Debtor.  The Debtor estimated assets and
debts of $50 million to $100 million as of the Chapter 11 filing.


EATON MOERY: Amends Plan; Confirmation Hearing on Oct. 21
---------------------------------------------------------
Eaton Moery Environmental Services, Inc. filed an its First
Amended Plan of Reorganization, dated Aug. 23, 2011.  A hearing on
the confirmation of the Plan is scheduled for Oct. 21, 2011, at
9:00 a.m. before the Honorable James G. Mixon.

Eaton Moery Environmental Services, Inc. will continue to exist
after Plan confirmation.

The Amended Plan provides for the treatment and payment of claims
or interests in these classes:

Claim                              Treatment
-----                              ---------
  I                       Paid from cash on hand on the Effective
Administrative Expenses   Date.

  II                      Monthly payments will be paid on these
Priority Tax Claims       Claims, according to the payment
  III                     schedule, until each deficiency is
Non-Tax Claims            cured.  The proposals remove the
                          Penalties from the claims of both
                          State and federal taxing authorities.

  IV
Bank of the Ozarks        Monthly payments will continue as
                          scheduled in the original note and
                          mortgage, except that the remaining
                          amortization will be 15 years instead
                          of eight years, thereby lowering the
                          monthly payment from $57,000 to
                          $38,000.

  V                       This class consists of the Allowed
Landfill Priority         Priority Unsecured Claim of Landfills
Vendors                   in the approximate amount of $654,920.

  VI                      The Debtor asserts these claims are
Delta Environmental       entitled to no distribution.
Investments, LLC

  VII                     To be paid in full by monthly payments
Landfill Vendors          of $14,589 until the $654,920 claim is
Priority Unsecured        paid in full.  The monthly payment
                          amortizes the Landfill vendors claim at
                          6% interest over five years.  The
                          monthly payment will be prorated to
                          each vendor based on their pro rata
                          share of the total outstanding debt.

  VIII                    Debtor disputes these insider claims in
DEI, LLC, Insider Notes   full.

  IX                      Glen Eaton and Bryan Moery waive their
Glen Eaton and Bryan      claims.
Moery

  X                       All allowed Unsecured Claims will be
Unsecured Claims          paid 50% of face value from the
                          operating profits of the Debtor at the
                          end of each calendar year.  The
                          Unsecured Claims are reduced to
                          $232,000.  The Debtor proposes to
                          dedicate $20,000 on December 31st each
                          year for this purpose, which amount
                          will be prorated based on the amount of
                          each outstanding claim -- this claim
                          will be paid in 10 years.  The
                          remaining $32,000 will be paid as a
                          single payment.

  XI                      Claimants' existing stock will be
Equity Security Holders   voided and 20,000 share of new common
                          Stock will be issued.

Creditors or parties-in-interest have until Sept. 26, 2011, to
file objections to the Plan.

According to Glen F. Eaton, president and chief executive officer
of the Debtor, the Allowed Claims will be paid from the net cash
flow of the Debtor.  Cash assets will be used to pay the
Administrative Claims, plus operating expenses after Confirmation.
As of mid-August 2011, the Debtor has $80,000 on hand in the DIP
account.

The Debtor will utilize its accounts receivables to fund month-to-
month operating expenses.  The receipt of these funds is generally
reliable and stable due to the fact that the Debtor's customers
are paying for residential and commercial garbage pickup, Mr.
Eaton relates.

The proceeds generated by successfully pursuing causes of action
will be used to make the payments.  The insider preference causes
of action will be assigned to the reorganized Debtor in the event
the claim of DEI and its constituents cannot be resolved by the
assertion of theories, Mr. Eaton says.

Mr. Eaton asserts that the Plan is feasible.  The Debtor's
liquidation analysis demonstrates that creditors will receive more
through the Plan than in the event of a Chapter 7, he tells the
Court.

available at no charge at:

The deadline for written objections to the Amended Plan is

       flow forecasts and bankruptcy-related budgets on a

FOOT LOCKER: Moody's Affirms 'Ba3' Corporate Family Rating
----------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service revised Foot Locker, Inc.'s outlook to
positive from stable and assigned a first time speculative grade
rating of SGL-1. Moody's also affirmed all existing ratings
including the Ba3 Corporate Family Rating, the Ba3 Probability of
Default Rating, and the B1 senior unsecured notes rating.

"The outlook change acknowledges Foot Locker's positive momentum
in earnings growth and very good liquidity" stated Moody's analyst
Mariko Semetko. While still relatively highly leveraged on a lease
adjusted basis, Foot Locker's credit metrics have improved
significantly over the past year driven by double digit comparable
sales growth and operating margin improvements.

For the twelve months ended July 30, 2011, Foot Locker's adjusted
leverage was 4.7 times as compared to 6.1 times for fiscal year
2009. Similarly, as-reported operating margins (adjusted for non-
recurring charges) increased from about 2.5% to approximately 7.0%
over this period.

The positive outlook reflects the company's potential to sustain
these profitability and credit metric improvements, take advantage
of growth opportunities abroad, and maintain very good liquidity
supported by significant balance sheet cash, positive free cash
flow, and excess revolver availability.

The speculative grade liquidity rating of SGL-1 denotes very good
liquidity, and is supported by Foot Locker's cash balances,
revolver availability, and healthy free cash flow expected over
the next twelve months. The SGL-1 further reflects Moody's view
that Foot Locker will maintain prudent share repurchase and
dividend policies.

Ratings Assigned:

- Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating of SGL-1

Ratings Affirmed (LGD assessment changed):

- Corporate Family Rating at Ba3

- Probability of Default Rating at Ba3

- Senior Unsecured Notes rating at B1 (LGD4, 65%)

Ratings could be upgraded through material and sustained margin
improvement, coupled with positive comparable store sales growth,
and reduced lease adjusted leverage while maintaining very good
liquidity. Specifically, an upgrade will require debt/EBITDA
maintained below 5.0 times for a sustained period.

While a downgrade is not likely in the near term, material
negative variances in earnings or the fundamental operating
environment combined with a significant deterioration in liquidity
could lead to a ratings downgrade, as could more aggressive
financial policies such as debt-financed share repurchases or
acquisitions. The outlook could revert to stable should
debt/EBITDA exceed 5.0 times for a sustained period.

The principal methodology used in rating Foot Locker was the
Global Retail Industry Methodology published in June 2011. Other
methodologies used include Loss Given Default for Speculative-
Grade Non-Financial Companies in the U.S., Canada and EMEA
published in June 2009.

Foot Locker, Inc. is a specialty athletic retailer, operating over
3,400 stores in 22 countries in North America, Europe, and
Australia as well as through its direct-to-customer websites and
catalogs. Store nameplates include Foot Locker, Footaction, Lady
Foot Locker, Kids Foot Locker, Champs Sports, and CCS. Revenues
for the last twelve months ended July 30, 2011 were approximately
$5.4 billion.


FREMONT GENERAL: Calif. Appeals Ct. Rules in Suit v. Ex-Counsel
---------------------------------------------------------------
Alan I. Faigin sued Fremont Reorganizing Corporation alleging that
he was jointly employed by both FRC and Fremont General
Corporation as in-house counsel.  Mr. Faigin alleges several
counts against FRC relating to the termination of his employment.
FRC filed a cross-complaint against Mr. Faigin alleging that he
wrongfully informed the Insurance Commissioner, as liquidator of a
related company, Fremont Indemnity Company, that his former
clients were planning to auction certain artworks that he claimed
were owned by Fremont Indemnity.  The Commissioner then commenced
an adversary action against Fremont General and FRC in the
liquidation proceeding.

Mr. Faigin filed a special motion to strike the cross-complaint
under the anti-SLAPP statute (Code Civ. Proc., Sec. 425.16).  The
trial court concluded that each count alleged in the cross-
complaint arose from protected activity under the anti-SLAPP
statute, that FRC had failed to demonstrate a probability of
prevailing on its claims, and that the litigation privilege
applied. The court granted the motion, striking the cross-
complaint in its entirety.

FRC appeals the order granting the special motion to strike and an
order awarding Mr. Faigin attorney fees as the prevailing cross-
defendant on the motion.

In an Aug. 30 decision, the Court of Appeals of California, Second
District, Division Three, concluded that each count alleged in the
cross-complaint arises from protected activity under the anti-
SLAPP statute and that FRC has not shown that Mr. Faigin's conduct
was "illegal as a matter of law" under the rule from Flatley v.
Mauro (2006) 39 Cal.4th 299 so as to make the anti-SLAPP statute
inapplicable.  The Court also concluded that FRC established a
probability of prevailing on its counts for breach of confidence
and breach of fiduciary duty and that the litigation privilege is
inapplicable in an action by a former client against an attorney
arising from breach of professional duties. FRC, however, failed
to establish a probability of prevailing on two other counts.  The
Court affirmed in part and reversed in part the order granting the
special motion to strike and reversed the order awarding attorney
fees with directions to the trial court to determine whether Mr.
Faigin's partial success entitles him to a fee award and, if so,
the amount of the award.

The case is FREMONT REORGANIZING CORPORATION, Cross-complainant
and Appellant, v. ALAN W. FAIGIN, Cross-defendant and Respondent,
No. B218178 (Calif. Ct. App.).  A copy of the decision is
available at http://is.gd/1vtI0cfrom Leagle.com.

                       About Fremont General

Based in Santa Monica, California, Fremont General Corp. (OTC:
FMNTQ) -- http://www.fremontgeneral.com/-- was a financial
services holding company with $8.8 billion in total assets at
Sept. 30, 2007.  Fremont General ceased being a financial services
holding company on July 25, 2008, when its wholly owned bank
subsidiary, Fremont Reorganizing Corporation (f/k/a Fremont
Investment & Loan) completed the sale of its assets, including all
of its 22 branches, and 100% of its $5.2 billion of deposits to
CapitalSource Bank.

The Insurance Commissioner commenced an involuntary liquidation
proceeding against Fremont Indemnity in June 2003.  Fremont
Indemnity was declared insolvent and the Commissioner was
appointed its liquidator in June 2003, and Mr. Faigin ceased
acting as counsel for Fremont Indemnity at that time.  The court
issued an order in July 2003 prohibiting Fremont Indemnity, its
officers, directors, agents, and employees from disposing of or
transferring the assets of Fremont Indemnity.  The order also
directed Fremont Indemnity, its officers, directors, agents, and
employees to deliver immediately to the Commissioner all assets
and records of Fremont Indemnity in their custody or control and
to disclose to the Commissioner the whereabouts of all assets and
records not in their custody or control. In addition, the order
directed all of Fremont Indemnity's affiliates to cooperate with
the Commissioner in the performance of his duties and to turn over
to the Commissioner all records of Fremont Indemnity's assets.

Fremont General filed for Chapter 11 protection on June 18, 2008,
(Bankr. C.D. Calif. Case No. 08-13421).  Robert W. Jones, Esq.,
and J. Maxwell Tucker, Esq., at Patton Boggs LLP, Theodore
Stolman, Esq., Scott H. Yun, Esq., and Whitman L. Holt, Esq., at
Stutman Treister & Glatt, represented the Debtor as counsel.
Kurtzman Carson Consultants LLC was the Debtor's noticing agent
and claims processor.  Lee R. Bogdanoff, Esq., Jonathan S.
Shenson, Esq., and Brian M. Metcalf, at Klee, Tuchin, Bogdanoff &
Stern LLP, represented the Official Committee of Unsecured
Creditors as counsel.  Fremont's formal schedules showed
$330,036,435 in total assets and $326,560,878 in total debts.

Fremont General emerged from bankruptcy and filed Amended and
Restated Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of
Nevada on June 11, 2010, which, among other things, changed the
Debtor's name to Signature Group Holdings, Inc.

Signature's plan of reorganization became effective on June 11,
2010.  As of that date Fremont General changed its name to
Signature Group Holdings, Inc.


GAHANNA-CREEKSIDE: Merchants Blame Tough Times, Not Receivership
----------------------------------------------------------------
Pamela Willis at Columbus Local News reports that Gahanna, Ohio's
Creekside Park complex sports a number of vacant storefronts, but
most of the current tenants blame a tough economy for slow
consumer traffic, not the fact the complex is in receivership
after a foreclosure.

Huntington Bank foreclosed on Creekside in February after Gahanna-
Creekside Investments LLC, an affiliate of the Stonehenge Co.,
defaulted on $29.1 million in loans, according to the report.

NAI Ohio Equities LLC representative Mark Froehlich was appointed
receiver and the complex is up for sale.

Columbus Local News notes that the Bread Basket Family Bakery, 117
Mill St., and the Aveda Salon, 75 Mill St., recently pulled out of
Creekside, citing high rent and low foot traffic.

Owners of 4 Paws and a Tail, a pet-grooming business at 79 Mill
St., said rents are higher in the newer Creekside buildings --
maybe too high for smaller businesses, Columbus Local News
discloses.

The city of Gahanna's "public-private partnership" with Stonehenge
is a land-lease agreement in which development rights are leased
to the developer for 99 years, while Gahanna retains ownership of
the property, the report notes.

The Creekside development opened in 2008.


GELT PROPERTIES: Can Use Lenders' Cash Collateral Until Sept. 30
----------------------------------------------------------------
On Aug. 24, 2011, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court entered a second
interim order authorizing Gelt Financial Corporation to use cash
collateral of the Lenders through Sept. 30, 2011, pursuant to a
budget.

As adequate protection for the use of cash collateral, the Lenders
are granted replacement liens on all now owned or hereafter
acquired property and assets of the Debtor and all proceeds,
products, rents and profits thereof.

The Debtor was also directed to pay the Lenders in accordance with
the Budget.

A further interim hearing on the use of cash collateral will be
held on Sept. 20, 2011, at 11:00 a.m.

As reported in the TCR on Aug. 8, 2011, Gelt Properties is a party
to various loan agreements with banking institutions.  As of
July 25, 2011, the amounts due under the loans are:

P.C., in Philadelphia, Pa., serve as the Debtors' bankruptcy
counsel.  In their separate petitions, the Debtors both
estimated $10 million to $50 million in assets and debts.  The
petitions were signed by Uri Shoham, the Debtors' chief financial
officer.


GENERAL MARITIME: Cut by Moody's to 'Caa3', May Need Restructuring
------------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service lowered its ratings of General Maritime
Corporation: Probability of Default to Caa3 from Caa1, Corporate
Family to Caa3 from B3 and senior unsecured to Ca from Caa2.
Moody's also affirmed the Speculative Grade Liquidity rating at
SGL-4. The outlook is negative.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The downgrade of the ratings to Caa3 reflects GenMar's still
tightening liquidity notwithstanding the recent issuance of junior
debt capital and relaxation of the minimum liquidity covenant of
its various debt facilities. Moody's believes that seasonal
freight rates will remain close to current levels through most of
2012, because growth in ton-mile demand is unlikely to absorb
continuing excess vessel supply. With the majority of the
company's current time-charter out contracts expiring in the next
12 to 15 months, GenMar will face increasing exposure to the
mainly lower spot market freight rates. Moody's expects the
company to continue to have a difficult time achieving positive
operating cash flow, which could threaten its ability to make cash
interest payments. The resultant overreliance on its cash balance,
which stood at almost $59 million at June 30, 2011 to meet its
operating and debt service requirements, could cause it to fall
out of compliance with the minimum liquidity covenant, which the
lenders recently agreed to lower to $35 million through Dec. 31,
2011.

Additionally, weak freight rates continue to pressure the market
value of tanker vessels, which reduces the potential for the sale
of one or more vessels to provide a sufficiently large source of
alternate liquidity for the company.

As a result of these pressures, there is an increasing prospect
that GenMar might need to pursue a restructuring of the terms of
certain of its credit facilities, if not the entirety of its debt
capital structure because of the ongoing weak sector fundamentals.
The Caa3 rating also considers the anticipation of ongoing
liquidity stress, weak credit metrics and potential for a less
than full recovery by one or more of the holders of the various
debt obligations.

The negative outlook considers the company's cash operating
losses. In addition, absent a waiver or amendment from the bank
group, the company could be challenged in complying with one or
more financial covenants by the December 31, 2011 measurement
date. The ratings could be downgraded further if GenMar is not
able to meet its debt service commitments pursuant to the terms of
the various loan facilities or the indenture of the rated
unsecured notes or if it pursues a restructuring of its debt
capital. The ratings could be upgraded and the outlook changed to
stable if the company is able to raise additional capital and or
freight rates improve in the near term to levels that allow the
company to strengthen and sustain its cash coverage of interest
above one time.

Downgrades:

   Issuer: General Maritime Corporation

   -- Probability of Default Rating, Downgraded to Caa3 from Caa1

   -- Corporate Family Rating, Downgraded to Caa3 from B3

   -- Senior Unsecured Regular Bond/Debenture, Downgraded to Ca,
      LGD6, 90% from Caa2, LGD5, 76%

   -- Senior Unsecured Regular Bond/Debenture, Downgraded to Ca,
      LGD6, 90% from Caa2, LGD5, 76%

The principal methodology used in rating General Maritime
Corporation was the Global Shipping Industry Methodology published
in December 2009. Other methodologies used include Loss Given
Default for Speculative-Grade Non-Financial Companies in the U.S.,
Canada and EMEA published in June 2009.

General Maritime Corporation, a Marshall Islands Corporation
headquartered in New York, N.Y., is the holding company parent of
three intermediate holding companies of GenMar's vessel-owning
subsidiaries.


GENON ENERGY: Fitch Affirm Issuer Default Rating at 'B'
-------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has affirmed GenOn Energy, Inc.'s (GEN) 'B' Issuer
Default Rating (IDR).  Fitch has also affirmed GenOn Americas
Generation, LLC (GAG) and GenOn Mid-Atlantic, LLC's (GMA) 'B+'
IDRs.  GAG and GMA are intermediate holding company subsidiaries
of GEN.  The Rating Outlook for GEN, GAG and GMA has been revised
to Negative from Stable.  Fitch has also affirmed GEN's short-term
IDR at 'B'.

Instrument Ratings Revised:

In addition, Fitch has made several instrument rating revisions to
reflect changes in estimated recovery given default and post-
merger changes in debt leverage within GEN's capital structure.

Fitch has downgraded GMA's pass-through certificates rating to
'BB' from 'BB+'.  The change in instrument rating is a function of
the change in GMA's Recovery Rating to 'RR2', one level lower than
its previous 'RR1' ranking.  The downgraded recovery ranking is
driven by lower estimated wholesale power prices, cash flows and
plant asset values.

At the same time, Fitch has upgraded GAG's senior unsecured debt
rating to 'BB/RR2' from 'B+/RR3' to reflect lower debt leverage
relative to asset values in recovery.  GAG repaid $535 million of
senior unsecured debt that matured earlier this year from cash on
hand.

Fitch has affirmed GEN's senior secured (term loan and revolver)
ratings at 'BB/RR1'.  GEN's senior unsecured notes have also been
affirmed at 'BB-'; however, the Recovery Ratings for the senior
unsecured notes have been adjusted to 'RR2' consistent with
Fitch's 'Recovery Ratings and Notching Criteria for Non-Financial
Corporate Issuers' dated May 13, 2011 that caps senior unsecured
debt recovery rankings at 'RR2'.

Approximately $5 billion of debt (including off-balance sheet
debt) is affected by the rating actions.

Outlook Revised:

The Negative Outlook for GEN, GAG and GMA reflects ongoing
financial pressure resulting from the extended down cycle
currently underway in wholesale power markets.  Fitch anticipates
a rebound in power prices to emerge in 2013, while noting that an
extended period of cyclically low power prices cannot be ruled
out.  Lower power prices than those currently anticipated by Fitch
and/or a down cycle that extends significantly beyond 2013 could
result in future credit rating downgrades for GEN and its
subsidiaries.  In the interim, GEN carries $1.6 billion of cash
and cash equivalents which affords it considerable flexibility to
withstand a sustained period of lower power prices.

EPA Rules Uncertain:

The Negative Outlook also considers uncertainty associated with
emerging Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) power plant
emission restrictions.  On a pro forma basis, more than 80% of
GEN's 2010 mwh sales were produced by coal-fired generating plants
located in PJM/MISO.  Approximately 4,374 MW of GEN's coal-fired
generating capacity (58% of total) has been retrofitted with
sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide emissions control equipment and
is, in Fitch's opinion, relatively well position in the dispatch
stack.

Weak 2011 - 2012 Credit Metrics:

Fitch projects GEN's credit metrics will be weak for its current
'B' IDR this year and next but expects the merchant generator's
financial ratios to rebound during 2013 - 2015.  On an LTM June
30, 2011 basis, GEN's EBITDA-to-interest ratio was 1.1 times (x).
Based on Fitch's estimates, EBITDA-to-interest is expected to
remain below 2x in 2011 and 2012 before recovering to 2.5x during
2013 - 2015.  Similarly, debt-to-EBITDA weakens to 8.3 times in
2012 rebounding to 5.2x during 2013 - 2015.

Fitch expects GEN to be in a free cash flow deficit over 2011-12
driven by approximately $597 million in capex during 2011 and $464
million in 2012.  A significant portion of 2011 -2012 capex is
earmarked for the Marsh Landing Generating facility, which is
project financed, nonrecourse to GEN, and should be completed by
mid-2013.  Fitch expects GEN to turn free cash flow positive
during 2013 - 2015 while noting that there remains considerable
uncertainty over the magnitude and size of environmental capex.

Environmental Capex:

In Fitch's opinion, capex beyond 2012 will be driven by the timing
and substance of final emission rules and the perceived ability of
the company to recover costs of environmental controls in
wholesale power prices.  Environmental spending at GEN could be
$500 million - $700 million over the coming eight years for NOx
and other air quality and water quality controls, depending on
final regulations and their effect on forward price curves.  Fitch
believes GEN will shut down some smaller, less efficient coal-
fired units with high relative emissions.  Additional capex
spending in response to emerging EPA rules and wholesale power
market pricing is possible.

Liquidity Strong:

The ratings also consider GEN's solid liquidity position.  As of
June 30, 2011, GEN had $1.6 billion of cash and cash equivalents
on its balance sheet and remaining borrowing capacity of $493
million under its revolving loan agreement, bringing total
liquidity to just over $2 billion.  Fitch expects GEN to retain a
large cash position in the foreseeable future consistent with its
liquidity and investment needs.

Balanced Capital Structure:

Maturities are manageable with a total of $632 million of debt
scheduled to mature in 2011 - 2015, including $575 million of
7.625% GEN senior unsecured notes in 2014.  The ratings reflect
Fitch's expectation that management remains committed to
maintaining solid liquidity and a balanced capital structure.
GEN's debt-to-total capital was approximately 50% as of June 30,
2011.

Recovery Analysis:

The individual security issue ratings at GEN are notched above or
below the IDR, to reflect the relative recovery prospects in a
hypothetical default scenario.  Fitch values the power generation
assets that guarantee the parent debt using a net present value
analysis.

The net present values of generating assets vary significantly
based on future gas price assumptions and other variables, such as
the discount rate and heat rate forecasts in PJM/MISO and other
regions in which the company operates.

For the net present valuation of generation assets used in Fitch's
recovery valuation case, Fitch uses the plant valuation provided
by its third-party power market consultant, Wood Mackenzie, as an
input as well as Fitch's own gas price deck and other assumptions.

GEN was formed through a merger of equals (in an all stock
transaction) of Mirant Corp. and RRI Energy, Inc., which closed on
Dec. 3, 2010.

owner of West Penn Billiard & Trophy on Babcock Boulevard, in
North Hills, Pennsylvania, closed since mid-August, has filed for
Chapter 7 bankruptcy -- but hopes to reopen it eventually.

August when an 8-inch-by 11-inch sheet of paper was posted on the

would be "closed for the next few days."

more than $1.3 million in total assets he plans to surrender,
including his home, a 2007 Toyota Scion and a 2003 GMC box truck.

Mr. Leon said he has accrued more than $1.6 million in total
liabilities including a $115,000 home mortgage, a mortgage valued
at more than $1 million for the Babcock Boulevard store and 38
separate claims from creditors.


GIORDANO'S ENTERPRISES: DIP Documents Require Sale by Oct. 31

GIORDANO'S ENTERPRISES: To Pay $173K  Audit Fee to Crowe
--------------------------------------------------------
The Hon. Eugene R. Wedoff of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Northern District of Illinois authorized Philip V. Martino, the
duly appointed Chapter 11 trustee in the cases of Giordano's
Enterprises, Inc., et al., to amend the compensation terms in
relation to the employment of Crowe Horwath LLP as auditor.

The trustee has asked the Court to increase by an aggregate
$21,600 the amount that he, on behalf of the Debtors' estates, may
pay to Crowe Horwath as compensation for work in preparing audited
financial statements of the Debtors for the years ended Dec. 31,
2009 and 2010, respectively.

The trustee related that Crowe Horwath had historically charged
$76,000 annually for producing audited financials for Debtors.
Therefore, Crowe Horwath and the Debtors agreed that Debtors would
pay Crowe Horwath, in installments, a total of $152,000 - $76,000
for each year - for the 2009 and 2010 Audited Financials.  This
represented a 20% discount off Crowe Horvath's usual rates.

The trustee added that Crowe Horwath discovered that the work
necessary to prepare the Audited Financials for 2009 and 2010,
would expand substantially from what had been their historical
experience with Debtors.

Crowe Horwath has informed the trustee that the Audited Financials
are ready, or nearly so, and has asked the trustee to pay the
remaining amount of the Original Fee and the Additional Fee.

The Court approved the amendment to reflect $173,600 for audit
fee.

GRAND SOLEIL: Court OKs Chapter 11 Bankruptcy
---------------------------------------------
Natchez Democrat reports that a U.S. bankruptcy judge sided with
five local companies, which Grand Soleil reportedly owed a total
of $1.6 million, in forcing the Grand Soleil into bankruptcy Aug.
10, 2011.

The report says the judge allowed the Grand Soleil to file under
Chapter 11 bankruptcy, despite the petitioning companies' request
the hotel file under Chapter 7.

According to the report, Good Hope Construction, Farmer Electrical
Service Company and Ketco filed a petition to force the hotel to
go into involuntary Chapter 7 bankruptcy in May.  Kimbrell Office
Supply Company and Natchez Printing joined the petition July 20.

The report, citing papers filed with the Court, says Grand Soleil
owed the following amounts to companies involved in the petition:
$1.1 million to Good Hope Construction; $468,000 to Farmer
Electrical Service Co.; $12,000 to Ketco Advertising-Specialties;
$5,437 to Kimbrell Office Supply; and $5,544 to Natchez Printing
Company.

Th report notes Grand Soleil's bankruptcy proceedings follow
recent years of financial troubles and failure to develop a
proposed casino project.

Britton and Koontz bank has initiated and canceled foreclosure
proceedings against Grand Soleil four times in recent years. Grand
Soleil also evaded foreclosure proceedings initiated by United
Mississippi Bank in December 2009.

GREEN MILLER: Motion to Reconsider, Filed A Year Late, Is Denied
----------------------------------------------------------------
Bankruptcy Judge S. Martin Teel, Jr., denied a motion for
reconsideration filed almost one year after the Court entered a
final judgment in the lawsuit, GREEN MILLER, JR., v. DISTRICT OF
COLUMBIA, et al., Adv. Proc. No. 08-10028 (Bankr. D. D.C.).  The
Plaintiff filed the motion pursuant to F.R.B.P. Rule 60(b), laying
out various arguments as to why the Court's prior rulings were
wrong on the merits.  Judge Teel said relief under Rule 60(b) is
not warranted when the only reason advanced for seeking relief is
re-argument of the merits of the case.  An appeal or a timely
motion under, and meeting the standards of, Federal Rule of Civil
Procedure 59, was the appropriate vehicle for setting aside the
court's rulings if they were in error.  A copy of Judge Teel's
Sept. 1, 2011 Memorandum Decision is available at

HARRISBURG, PA: Pennsylvania Senator Calls for Harrisburg Takeover
------------------------------------------------------------------
American Bankruptcy Institute reports that one day after
Harrisburg, Pa., rejected a fiscal recovery plan, a state lawmaker
on Thursday urged the state to move ahead with a takeover of the
city's troubled finances.

                          About Harrisburg, PA

The city of Harrisburg is coping with debt related to a failed
revamp of an incinerator.  The outstanding principal on the
Incinerator debt is $288 million.  Total principal and interest on
this debt would amount to approximately $458 million.  Debt
service payments on the total incinerator debt are $20 million per
year.  Of this total, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania, is responsible
for roughly $10 million and Harrisburg is responsible for the
other $10 million.   The city is guarantor on 100% of the
$288 million Incinerator debt.

The Harrisburg City Council voted 5-2 on Sept. 28, 2010 to seek
professional advice on bankruptcy or state oversight.  Harrisburg
needed state aid to avoid default on $3.3 million of bond payments
this month.

The city has missed about $8 million in debt-service payments this
year on bonds issued in connection with a trash-to-energy
incinerator.  The city owes another $40 million by the end of the

                  About Hawaii Medical Center

The Hawaii Medical Center, along with its affiliates, filed for
Chapter 11 bankruptcy (Bankr. D. Hawaii Lead Case No. 11-01746) on
June 21, 2011, just a year after exiting court protection.  Hawaii
Medical Center owns two hospital campuses -- HMC East in North
Honolulu and HMC West in Ewa Beach.  The two hospitals have 342
licensed beds and have a total of more than 1,000 employees.  The
hospitals were known as St. Francis Medical Center before Hawaii
Medical purchased the hospitals in 2007.

Judge Robert J. Faris presides over the 2011 case.  Lawyers at
Moseley Biehl Tsugawa Lau & Muzzi, in Honolulu, Hawaii, and
McDonald Hopkins LLC, in Cleveland, Ohio, serve as the Debtors'
counsel.  The Debtors' financial advisors are Scouler & Company,
LLC.  In its petition, Hawaii Medical Center estimated $50 million
to $100 million in assets and $100 million to $500 million in
debts.  The petitions were signed by Kenneth J. Silva, member of
the board of directors.

Attorneys at Wagner Choi & Verbrugge, in Honolulu, Hawaii, and
Pachulski Stang Ziehl & Jones LLP, in Los Angeles, represent the
Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors as counsel.

The Debtors' prepetition debt structure is comprised of (i) the
Prepetition Revolving Loan with MidCap Financial, LLC, and the
Prepetition Term Loan with St. Francis Healthcare Systems of
Hawaii.  As of the petition Dte, the aggregate outstanding
principal on the Prepetion MidCap Revolving Loan and the
Prepetition St. Francis Term Loan is approximately $46,851,772.
The principal balance of the Prepetion MidCap Revolving Loan is
approximately $7,676,495.  The amount owed under the Prepetition
St. Francis Term Loan is approximately $39,175,277, secured by St.
Francis's first priority lien on, among other things, all real
property of the Debtors.

Through this Chapter 11 filing, the Debtors plan to return the
hospitals to the control of St. Francis.

In the prior case, HMC and its affiliated debtors were converted
to new, Hawaii non-profit corporations.  CHA Hawaii, one of HMC's
affiliated debtors and a subsidiary of Cardiovascular Hospitals of
America, LLC, discontinued management of the reorganized Debtors.

Wichita, Kansas-based CHA Hawaii LLC, and its affiliates --
including Hawaii Medical Center LLC -- filed for Chapter 11
protection on Aug. 29, 2008 (Bankr. D. Del. Case No. 08-12027).
Laura Davis Jones, Esq., at Pachulski Stang Ziehl & Jones LLP
represented the Debtors in their restructuring efforts.  CHA
Hawaii estimated assets of up to $10 million and debts between
$50 million and $100 million when it filed for bankruptcy.  The
Debtors obtained confirmation of their Chapter 11 plan in May 2010
and emerged from bankruptcy in August 2010.


HELLER EHRMAN: Agrees to Pay Brobeck Phleger $470,000
-----------------------------------------------------
Sara Randazzo at The AM Law Daily reports that Brobeck, Phleger &
Harrison's estate has reached a $470,988 settlement with the
estate of law firm Heller Ehrman won't change the course of its
Chapter 7 proceedings.

The agreement, which must be approved by U.S. Bankruptcy Judge
Dennis Montali, settles a long-running dispute over who deserves
to get paid for work six Brobeck partners took with them to Heller
after Brobeck dissolved in 2003.

The report says both firms agreed to the sum, which represents
just 17.5 percent of the nearly $2.7 million in fees the former
Brobeck partners collected while at Heller, according to the
settlement agreement filed in court Aug. 30.

Based on the terms of Heller's bankruptcy, the $470,988 the firm's
estate agreed to pay Brobeck will eventually be reduced -- just
recently, Heller struck a deal to pay unsecured creditors between
24 cents and 33 cents on the dollar for outstanding claims.

                       About Brobeck Phleger

Brobeck, Phleger & Harrison LLP started business in 1926.  It was
a prominent national law firm with over 900 attorneys and offices
in California, New York, Colorado, Virginia, Texas, Washington
D.C., and, through a joint-venture, in London, England.  In the
late 1990's and early 2000s, Brobeck enjoyed rapid growth, almost
doubling its number of attorneys in just over three years in its
booming technology-sector practice.  In the course of its
expansion, Brobeck incurred substantial debt as well as lease
obligations for several new offices.  On September 17, 2003,
certain of Brobeck's creditors filed an involuntary chapter 7
bankruptcy petition (Bankr. N.D. Calif. Case No. 03-32715).
Thereafter, Ronald F. Greenspan was elected as the Chapter 7
Trustee.

                        About Heller Ehrman

Headquartered in San Francisco, California, Heller Ehrman, LLP
-- http://www.hewm.com/-- was an international law firm of more
than 730 attorneys in 15 offices in the United States, Europe, and
Asia.

Heller Ehrman filed a voluntary Chapter 11 petition (Bankr. N.D.
Calif., Case No. 08-32514) on Dec. 28, 2008.  Members of the
firm's dissolution committee led by Peter J. Benvenutti approved a
plan dated Sept. 26, 2008, to dissolve the firm.  The Hon. Dennis
Montali presides over the case.  Pachulski Stang Ziehl & Jones LLP
assists the Debtor in its restructuring effort.  The Official
Committee of Unsecured Creditors is represented Felderstein
Fitzgerald Willoughby & Pascuzzi LLP.  The firm estimated assets
and debts at $50 million to $100 million as of the Petition Date.
According to reports, the firm had roughly $63 million in assets
and 54 employees at the time of its filing.  The Court confirmed
Heller Ehrman's Plan of Liquidation in September 2010.


HELLER EHRMAN: Suit Against Non-Creditor Dismissed
--------------------------------------------------
The lawsuit styled Heller Ehrman LLP, Liquidating Debtor, v.
Gregory Canyon Ltd., Limited Liability Company and Servcon-San
Marcos, Inc., Adv. Proc. No. 10-3329 (Bankr. N.D. Calif.), will
proceed in state court after Bankruptcy Judge Dennis Montali
granted the defendants' motion to dismiss the first amended
complaint.  Judge Montali held that there is no related to
jurisdiction over the action under 28 U.S.C. Sections 157(c)(1)
and 1334 in both the bankruptcy court or the district court.
Judge Montali said the adversary proceeding is not a core
proceeding, notwithstanding Heller's designation of one claim for
relief as a turnover action under 11 U.S.C. Sec. 542.  Whatever
the label, this is not an action for turnover of estate property;
it is a essentially an action to recover an account receivable,
for breach of contract and quantum meruit.  Turnover actions
involve the "return of undisputed funds," Judge Montali said,
citing In re Gurga, 176 B.R. 196, 199-200 (9th Cir. BAP 1994). In
the Heller suit, the Defendants dispute liability to Heller; the
estate's property is the claim for damages itself, which is not
subject to turnover.  There is no specific, identifiable fund
belonging to Heller in the Defendants' possession.  A suit by a
debtor against a non-creditor arising out of breach of contract,
absent more than has been alleged, is not a turnover action under
Sec. 542.

Judge Montali also considered the Defendants' argument that the
Supreme Court's recent decision in Stern v. Marshall, 131 S.Ct.
2594, stripped the Bankruptcy Court of jurisdiction over the
adversary proceeding.  Judge Montali disagrees.  In Stern v.
Marshall, the Supreme Court addressed the issue of when a
bankruptcy judge has the power and authority to enter final
orders, and did not address subject matter jurisdiction found in
28 U.S.C. Sec. 1334.  As the Judge Montali agrees with the
Defendants that it and the district court both lack related to
subject matter jurisdiction, a bankruptcy judge's power and
authority to enter findings of fact and a final judgment is not
implicated.

JEFFERSON, AL: Officials Confident Despite Jefferson County Woes
----------------------------------------------------------------
American Bankruptcy Institute reports that Alabama's most populous
county will soon decide whether it will file for the biggest
municipal bankruptcy in U.S. history, but other local government
officials are confident they can handle the fallout if Jefferson
County seeks court help to deal with its $3 billion in sewer debt.

                     About Jefferson County

Jefferson County has its seat in Birmingham, Alabama.  It has a
population of 660,000.  It ended its 2006 fiscal year with a
$42.6 million general fund balance, according to Standard &
Poor's.

Jefferson County is trying to restructure $3.14 billion in sewer
debt.  A bankruptcy by Jefferson County stands to be the largest
municipal bankruptcy in U.S. history.  It could beat the record of
$1.7 billion set by Orange County, California in 1994.

In September 2010, Alabama Circuit Court Judge Albert Johnson
named John S. Young Jr. LLC as receiver for the sewer system.

Jefferson County has retained Kenneth Klee, Esq., at Klee Tuchin
Bogdanoff & Stern LLP to represent the county in the event of
bankruptcy.  Mr. Klee is considered to be a municipal-bankruptcy
expert, having handled Orange County, Calif.'s bankruptcy case in
1994.

A Chapter 9 filing Jefferson County would be the largest in U.S.
municipal history.


JETDIRECT AVIATION: Court Denies Standing to Failed LLC's Creditor
------------------------------------------------------------------
Eric Hornbeck at Bankruptcy Law360 reports that Delaware's high
court tossed a lawsuit Friday brought by a creditor who loaned
$34.2 million to fuel now-bankrupt JetDirect Aviation Holdings
LLC's acquisition spree, ruling that a creditor of a bankrupt
limited liability company can't file a derivative suit against it.

Delaware's Limited Liability Company Act doesn't give standing to
creditors to bring such suits, according to a unanimous ruling of
the full Delaware Supreme Court.

JetDirect Aviation LLC is a charter aircraft operator.

JetDirect Aviation LLC "did not attempt to reorganize" and instead
sent itself to Chapter 7 liquidation (Bankr. D. Del. 09-_____) on
May 1 2009, where a trustee will take over and liquidate assets.
The Debtor estimated assets of less than $50 million and debt in
excess of $100 million.

An affiliate named Sunset Aviation Inc. commenced Chapter 7
liquidation in Delaware in March.


JOSEPH SMYJUNAS: Files for Chapter 11 With $32.7MM Debt
-------------------------------------------------------
Joseph Smyjunas filed a Chapter 11 petition (Bankr. S.D. Ohio Case
No. 11-15318) on Aug. 30, 2011.

Business Courier reports that Oakley developer Rob Smyjunas is
facing $27 million in debt that he guaranteed on the Corridor 75
industrial project in Monroe.

Mr. Smyjunas disclosed $2.9 million in assets and $32.7 million in
liabilities in its Chapter 11 petition.  Among those liabilities
were two loans from Huntington Bank that were used to acquire land
and finance construction at Corridor 75.

According to the report, Corridor 75 is an industrial park near
the intersection of Interstate 75 and Ohio 63 in Monroe.  The
project includes a 657,000-square-foot building occupied by a Home
Depot distribution center and a 650,000-square-foot speculative
building that is yet to be leased.

Mr. Smyjunas' development company Vandercar Holdings is the
developer of Oakley Station, a $120 million mixed-use development
planned for a 74-acre site where a cluster of machine-tool
factories once operated.

The report notes the filing lists six unsecured creditors with
claims pending.  Huntington is the largest, with claims totaling
$28.8 million against three different limited liability companies.
Other creditors include First Financial Bank, owed $1.6 million in
connection with a property at 5500 Ridge Road, and PNC Bank, owed
$899,399 on a loan to Indian Hill Golf Course LLC.

The report adds listed among the developer's assets is a "cause of
action against Huntington Bank for interference with business
decisions."  The filing lists an unknown value for that claim.
The filing also indicates Huntington seized an IRA account from
Smyjunas in August worth $128,000. Smyjunas is challenging the
seizure.

According to the report, Huntington has been pursuing a judgment
against Smyjunas for the Corridor 75 loans since January, when Mr.
Smyjunas told the Courier that he "made every mortgage payment to
date."

The report says the default allegations did not keep Smyjunas from
securing Planning Commission approval for Oakley Station in April
and announcing a movie theater tenant on the site in June.

The bankruptcy filing said Vandercar LLC was unable to finance the
$5.5 million purchase price of 60 acres needed for Oakley Station,
so the purchase contract was assigned to another company owned by
three investors, including Mr. Smyjunas' wife, Mary Ruth Smyjunas.
Those investors "have been funding the ownership and development"
of Oakley Station, the filing states.


KT SPEARS: First Palmetto Withdraws Motion to Dismiss Case
----------------------------------------------------------
First Palmetto Savings Bank, FSB, withdrew its motion to dismiss
the Chapter 11 case of KT Spears Creek, LLC, for bad faith filing
saying the matter has been settled.

As previously reported on the Aug. 23, 2011 edition of The
Troubled Company Reporter, the Bank adopted in their entirely the
arguments set forth in the motion of RBC Bank (USA), Inc., to
dismiss the Chapter 11 case of the Debtor.

FPSB is a secured creditor of the Debtor by virtue of a promissory
note dated June 22, 2010, in the principal amount of $885,719.46,
and a mortgage dated March 16, 2009, on the Debtor's real property
which is contiguous to the real property subject to RBC's mortgage
and part of the same project of the Debtor.

Counsel for FPSB may be reached at:

     Ian D. McVey, Esq.
     CALLISON TIGHE & ROBINSON, LLC
     P.O. Box 1390
     Columbia, SC 29202
     Tel: (803) 404-6900
     Fax: (803) 404-6901
     E-mail: ianmcvey@callisontighe.com

A hearing on the motion of RBC for the dismissal of the Debtor's
case will be held on Sept. 6, 2011, at 9:00 a.m.

RBC Bank asked the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of South
Carolina to dismiss the Debtor's Chapter 11 case, citing that the
case was filed in bad faith to thwart RBC from completing its
foreclosure of the property.  In support of its claim that this is
a "bad faith" filing, RBC Bank related that the Debtor is a single
asset real entity, has no employes, the cash flow generated by the
apartment complex is insufficient to fund a confirmable plan of
reorganization, and the Debtor has no or relatively few unsecured
creditors.

Further, RBC Bank said that prior to the filing of the
foreclosure, Kyle Tauch, the Debtor's principal, caused over
$350,000 to be diverted to an affiliated company and failed to pay
over the $800,000 in taxes owed on the property securing the
Bank's debt.  RBC Bank noted also that this case is nothing more
that a dispute between the Debtor and its secured lenders, and
that it believes that that Debtor has no hope for a successful
Plan of Reorganization.

LAS VEGAS SANDS: 2016 Debt Trades at 9% Off in Secondary Market
---------------------------------------------------------------
Participations in a syndicated loan under which Las Vegas Sands
Corp. is a borrower traded in the secondary market at 90.94 cents-
on-the-dollar during the week ended Friday, Sept. 2, 2011, a drop
of 1.24 percentage points from the previous week according to data
compiled by Loan Pricing Corp. and reported in The Wall Street
Journal.  The Company pays 275 basis points above LIBOR to borrow
under the facility.  The bank loan matures on Nov. 26, 2016, and
carries Standard & Poor's BB rating.  The loan is one of the
biggest gainers and losers among 70 widely quoted syndicated loans
with five or more bids in secondary trading for the week ended
Friday.

Las Vegas Sands Corp. owns and operates hotel and casino
integrated resort facilities in Las Vegas, NV, Bethlehem, PA,
Macau, China and Singapore.  The company generates consolidated
annual net revenue of close to $7 billion.

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter on June 17, 2011,
Standard & Poor's raised its corporate credit rating on the Las
Vegas Sands Corp. (LVSC) family of companies to 'BB' from 'BB-'.
Aside from Las Vegas Sands Corp., the LVSC family of rated
companies includes Las Vegas Sands LLC, its Venetian Casino Resort
LLC subsidiary, and affiliate VML U.S. Finance LLC.  "All issue-
level ratings were also raised by one notch in conjunction with
the corporate credit rating upgrade.  The rating outlook is
stable," S&P said.

"The rating upgrade reflects continued strong performance, and our
belief that under our updated long-term performance expectations,
Las Vegas Sands will maintain credit measures comfortably within
our threshold for a 'BB' corporate credit rating.  While the
proposed Macau refinancing will add approximately $1.1 billion of
additional debt to prefund development, we expect consolidated
EBITDA to grow approximately 30% in 2011 compared with 2010, which
would result in consolidated operating lease-adjusted leverage
improving to the mid-4x area by the end of 2011.  Given our
satisfactory assessment of LVSC's business risk profile, we would
be comfortable with leverage temporarily spiking as high as 5.5x
to fund development projects, but generally consider leverage
closer to 5x to be in line with a 'BB' corporate credit rating for
LVSC," S&P said.

On June 28, 2011, the TCR reported that Moody's revised Las Vegas
Sand Corp.'s rating outlook to positive from stable and affirmed
the company's Ba3 Corporate Family, Probability of Default, and
senior secured debt ratings.  LVSC has an SGL-1 Speculative Grade
Liquidity rating.

The outlook revision to positive reflects a higher degree of
confidence on the part of Moody's that LVSC will be able to reduce
and sustain debt/EBITDA at or below 3.5 times on a gross basis,
the target leverage required for a one-notch ratings upgrade.

"Given Moody's current expectation of annual consolidated EBITDA
of between 2.7 and 2.8 billion for 2011, LVSC's debt/EBITDA will
likely be between 4.0 and 4.3 times by the end of that period, and
could reach 3.5 times by the end of 2012 if business conditions in
Asia remain strong," stated Keith Foley, a Senior Vice President
at Moody's.  "However, LVSC would also need to adhere to a
conservative long-term financial policy in order to achieve a Ba2
Corporate Family Rating."

LUCIEN PICCARD: Acquired Out of Bankruptcy by Swiss Watch
---------------------------------------------------------
Paul Brinkmann at the South Florida Business Journal reports that
Hollywood-based Swiss Watch International has acquired another
local watch firm out of bankruptcy.

According to the report, over 18 months, the company has grown
from 100 employees to 150, launched the "World of Watches"
shopping show on the DISH Network and acquired well-known global
brand Lucien Piccard, which was owned by another Hollywood-based
company, Lucien Piccard Inc., that filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy
in July 2010.

The report says the price for Lucien Piccard, as recorded in the
bankruptcy sale documents, was $3.6 million.  That included
assuming bank debt of $3 million, which was later discounted,
Swiss Watch attorney Linda Jackson of Miami-based Infante Zumpano
Salazar & Miloch LLC, said.  The sale included about $5 million of
inventory at retail prices, she said.

When it filed for bankruptcy, Lucien Piccard had $2.71 million in
outstanding accounts receivable. Dallas-based Comerica Bank had a
claim of $5.69 million secured by all personal property included
accounts, inventory and claims. Bankruptcy claims linger

Th report relates that the Company's chairman and owner, Sol
Friedman, was listed on bankruptcy documents with a claim of
$3.68 million.  Other local creditors include Hollywood-based F&K
LLC, with a claim of $604,606, and Miami-based LAU International,
with a claim of $6,002.

Ms. Jackson said it is too early to tell exactly how those
creditors will be treated because there are still claims to be
worked out in the bankruptcy.

According to the report, another company, JEMSPAD LLC, had offered
a stalking-horse bid, but failed to match Swiss Watch's bid at
auction, Ms. Jackson said.  She said objections to the sale were
aired in a daylong hearing before U.S. Bankruptcy Judge John K.
Olson, but he ruled the sale was valid.  The deadline to appeal
Olson's ruling has passed, Ms. Jackson said.

Lucien Piccard Inc. and two of its affiliates, LP Watch Group and
Charles Winston Luxury Group, operates a watch and jewelry
company, filed for bankruptcy under Chapter 11, listing assets of
$10.57 million and debts of $11.96 million.  Lucien Piccard has
$2.71 million in outstanding accounts receivable.  The Company
owes $5.69 million to Comerica Bank; $3.69 million, Sol Friedman;
$604,606, F & K LLC; and $6,002, LAU International.  Peter
Shapiro, Esq., at Arnstein & Lehr, represents the Company.

MARY HOLDER: Downturn in Housing Market Cues Bankruptcy Filing
--------------------------------------------------------------
The Asbury Park Press reports that Mary Holder Agency Inc. has
filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in part because the downturn in
the housing market left it unable to repay a company with which it
signed a franchise agreement.

According to the report, Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate LLC
said the Spring Lake-based company owes it nearly $547,000, at
least some of which was backed by the agency's assets.

The report notes Mary Holder Agency is still operating with one
full-time employee and two real estate agents, who technically are
independent contractors, according to court papers.

Among the creditors are about 11 sales associates who are owed a
total nearly $25,000 in commissions from homes they sold before
the bankruptcy filing, according to court papers.

Mary Holder Agency, Inc., doing business as Mary Holder Realtor
Agency, Inc., formerly Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Mary
Holder, filed a Chapter 11 bankruptcy petition (Bankr. D. N.J.
Case No. 11-34280) on Aug. 15, 2011.  The Company estimated assets
under $500,000 and debts under $1 million.  See
http://bankrupt.com/misc/njb11-34280.pdf


MAYSVILLE INC: FEP & MUNB Oppose Collateral Use, Want Dismissal
---------------------------------------------------------------
MUNB Loan Holdings, LLC and Fifteen Encore Platinum, LLC,
successor-in-interest to MUNB, object to the motion of Maysville,
Inc. for authority to use cash collateral, and ask the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Florida to dismiss
the bankruptcy case and to deny use of the Cash Collateral.

On behalf of FEP, James D. Gassenheimer, Esq., at Berger
Singerman, P.A., in Miami, Florida, points out that none of the
Debtor's pleading in its second-filed Chapter 11 case provides a
"meaningful explanation" as to what significant changes have
occurred at this single asset real estate project that should
cause the Court to give the Debtor another chance to confirm a
plan.  He notes that the Debtor was given three chances to confirm
a plan of reorganization in its first-filed Chapter 11 case.

Both FEP and MUNB assert that "this Second Bankruptcy Case
represents another bad faith attempt by the Debtor to derail the
[Court-ordered] foreclosure sale of certain units of the Platinum
Condominium and certain adjacent parcels in which the Debtor has
no equity."

Platinum Condominium is located at Biscayne Boulevard and 29th
Street in Miami, Florida.

Moreover, the Debtor has ignored a long-standing Rents Order
requiring it to deposit monthly into a certain Rents Escrow
Account for the benefit of MUNB -- and, now FEP, as successor to
MUNB -- as well as all rents and other income derived from the
Property, less certain operating expenses set forth in a Court-
approved budget, according to FEP.  The Rents Order of the State
Court required the deposit of July rents on or before Aug. 15,
2011.  By correspondence dated Aug. 22, 2011, the Debtor's counsel
has asserted that the Debtor will not make the required deposit
absent Bankruptcy Court order, Mr. Gassenheimer informs the
Bankruptcy Court.

Mr. Gassenheimer asserts that the Cash Collateral Motion should be
denied because:

     * The Debtor is collaterally stopped in this bankruptcy case
       from challenging the extent and priority of FEP's liens --
       as successor to MUNB;

     * FEP, as successor to MUNB, does not consent to the
       Debtor's use of its cash collateral; and

     * The Debtor has failed to provide FEP with the adequate
       protection to which it is entitled because (i) no equity
       cushion exists in the Property that could provide adequate
       protection to FEP, (ii) the Debtor's clear pattern of
       mismanagement of the Property and enormous transfers to
       its insiders demonstrate that any replacement lien the
       Debtor proposes to provide to FEP is worthless, (iii)
       there is no successful reorganization in prospect and the
       Debtor's case should be dismissed to permit the
       foreclosure of the Property to proceed immediately to its
       inevitable conclusion, and (iv) FEP's interests in the
       Property, Rents Escrow Account, and FEP's other cash
       collateral far exceed the ability of the Debtor to protect
       the interests.

If the Court authorizes the Debtor to use FEP's cash collateral,
the Court should prohibit the Debtor from using the cash
collateral to pay professional fees, transfers to insiders
described as "management fees" or other expenses not related to
the preservation and maintenance of the Property, Mr. Gassenheimer
says.

MUNB joins in FEP's objection and preserves its rights under the
Assignment and Assignment Order of the State Court, dated Aug. 11,
2011, whereby FEP was substituted as party plaintiff in the
Foreclosure Action as to the entire interest assigned to it by
MUNB.

MEG ENERGY: Bank Debt Trades at 5% Off in Secondary Market
----------------------------------------------------------
Participations in a syndicated loan under which MEG Energy Corp.
is a borrower traded in the secondary market at 95.04 cents-on-
the-dollar during the week ended Friday, Sept. 2, 2011, a drop of
0.71 percentage points from the previous week according to data
compiled by Loan Pricing Corp. and reported in The Wall Street
Journal.  The Company pays 300 basis points above LIBOR to borrow
under the facility.  The bank loan matures on March 22, 2018, and
carries Moody's Ba3 rating and Standard & Poor's BBB- rating.  The

MEG Energy Corp. (Toronto: MEG) -- http://www.megenergy.com/--
engages in the development and production of sustainable in situ
oil sands in the southern Athabasca region of Alberta, Canada.

sands leases, which includes the Christina Lake project and the
Surmont project covering an area of 552,960 acres in the Athabasca

MIRASOL INC: Owes Several Clients Hefty Refunds
-----------------------------------------------
Dale Quinn at Arizona Daily Star reports that Mirasol Inc. said it
owes several of its clients hefty refunds, sometimes in excess of
$10,000.

According to the report, among creditors holding the 20 largest
unsecured claims were five clients owed refunds ranging from
$3,010 to $14,490, Mirasol's voluntary bankruptcy petition says.
Generally in bankruptcy, secured claims, or those backed up with
collateral, are paid before unsecured claims, which have no
collateral.  Still, Mirasol's bankruptcy attorney Charles R. Hyde
said he's working on a way to have those clients classified
differently than other unsecured creditors so the court will allow
them a full refund.

"It is Mirasol's goal to pay them back in full," the report quotes
Mr. Hyde as saying.

The treatment facility, according to Arizona Daily Star, plans to
remain in business and eventually emerge from Chapter 11
bankruptcy, Mr. Hyde said.  A Chapter 11 filing generally protects
a debtor from legal action while it works out a way to pay back
its creditors.  Mirasaol Inc. began admitting patients in Tucson
in November 2004.  Many of its financial challenges stem from its
attempts to expand as the economy began to fall into recession and
property values declined, Mr. Hyde said.

"The downturn in the economy significantly detrimented their
business," Mr. Hyde said.

Based in Tucson, Arizona, Mirasol Inc. filed for Chapter 11
protection (Bankr. D. Ariz. Case No. 11-22285) on Aug. 3, 2011.
Judge James M. Marlar presides over the case.  Charles R. Hyde,
Esq., at Law Offices of C.R. Hyde, represents the Debtor.  The
Debtor listed assets of between $500,000 and $1 million, and debts
of between $1 million and $10 million.


MISSION REAL ASSOC: Plan Confirmation Hearing Set for Sept. 14
--------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of California
will convene a hearing on Sept. 14, 2011, at 10:00 a.m., to
consider confirmation of Mission Real Associates, LLC, et al.'s

2011, and re-filed on July 27, 2011.

The Court set Aug. 17, as deadline for the Debtors' counsel to
received all ballots on the Plan and/or objections to Plan
confirmation is.

The Court approved the amended disclosure statement which included
minor modifications.

According to the Disclosure Statement, the proposed Plan seeks to
accomplish payments by distributing the proceeds of the sale of
substantially all of the assets of the estate.  The funding of the
Plan will come from the Debtors' interests in non-cash assets and
cash on hand in the bankruptcy estate as of the effective date of
the Plan.  The Plan also provides for distributions to interest
holders in accordance with the respective interests and
reservation of the distributions to interest holders in instances
where there are disputes and competing claims as to those claims.

Under the Plan, each holder of Class 3 general unsecured claims
will receive cash equal to the amount of allowed claim plus
interest at the Federal Judgment Rate.

MORGAN'S FOODS: Amends Pre-Negotiation Agreement with KFC
---------------------------------------------------------
Morgan's Foods, Inc., previously disclosed in a report on Form 8-K
filed with the SEC on May 20, 2011, that it had entered into a
Pre-negotiation Agreement with KFC Corporation for the purpose of
finalizing plans to raise capital to fund a remodeling schedule
for certain of the Company's KFC restaurants.  The Pre-negotiation
Agreement called for the final refinancing plans and an image
enhancement schedule to be approved and documented in a remodel
agreement by Aug. 31, 2011.  Discussions between the Company and
KFC concerning the remodel agreement and related matters remain
ongoing but could not be finalized by that date so on Aug. 30,
2011, the Company and KFC amended the Pre-negotiation Agreement to
extend the deadline date from Aug. 31, 2011, until Sept. 30, 2011.
While management continues to believe that the required agreement
will be reached, there can be no assurance that the Company will
be able to reach an agreement with KFC regarding image
enhancements, that the Company will complete the financial
restructuring, or that the restructuring will create the ability
for the Company to complete a satisfactory number of image
enhancements.

The Company's balance sheet at May 22, 2011, showed $43.03 million
in total assets, $42.62 million in total liabilities and $418,000
in total shareholders' equity.


MSR RESORT: Has Until Sept. 30 to Decided on Property Leases
------------------------------------------------------------
The Hon. Sean H. Lane of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of New York extended the time within which MSR
Resort Golf Course LLC and its debtor-affiliates must assume or
reject operating leases of nonresidential real property assets
until Sept. 30, 2011.

According to the Troubled Company Reporter on Aug. 4, 2011, each
of the Debtor fee owners of the resorts are parties to certain
operating leases with the Debtor operating lessees, which
are outside of the fee ownership chain.

The Debtors have determined that it would not be prudent for them
to make determinations concerning the assumption or rejection of
the Operating Leases on or before Aug. 30, 2011.  The Debtors are
attempting to reach a consensual renegotiation of the Hilton
Management Agreements.  To the extent the Debtors are unable to
reach such a resolution, they will need to seek an adjudication on
certain estoppel certificates executed by Hilton on April 11,
2007, for each of the Hilton Resorts, and complete the process of
transitioning from Hilton to a new manager.

The Debtors explained that they are restructuring their resort
management and branding agreements, and the treatment of the
operating leases is a key part of the process.

NAVISTAR INTERNATIONAL: To Review Impairment of $120-Mil. Assets
----------------------------------------------------------------
As disclosed by Navistar International Corporation in August, its
executive management committed to close its International truck
manufacturing plant in Chatham, Ontario, and Workhorse chassis
plant in Union City, Indiana, and to significantly scale back
operations at its Monaco RV headquarters and motor coach
manufacturing plant in Coburg, Oregon.  As a result of these
actions, as well as other factors, the Company concluded that
there was a trigger event for the review for impairment of
approximately $120 million of various long-lived assets, including
certain intangible assets, related to these facilities.  At that
time, the Company was unable to make a good faith estimate of the
amount or range of impairment charges expected to be incurred.

The Chatham and Workhorse asset groups were reviewed for
recoverability by comparing the carrying values to the estimated
future undiscounted cash flows and those carrying values were
determined to not be fully recoverable.  The Company utilized the
cost approach and market approach to determine the fair value of
certain assets within the asset groups.  The other portions of the
asset groups' fair values were based on estimates of future cash
flows developed by management.

As of Aug. 26, 2011, the Company evaluated the recoverability of
the $120 million of long-lived assets, including intangible
assets, as originally disclosed in the Company's Current Report on
Form 8-K filed on Aug. 4, 2011, and determined that the amount of
impairment charges expected to be incurred is approximately $60
million.  Relating to the Company's Chatham, Ontario plant, the
Company anticipates impairments of property and equipment of
approximately $10 million due to the closure of the facility.
Relating to the Company's Union City, Indiana plant, the Company
anticipates impairments of intangible assets of approximately $50
million due to market deterioration and reduction in demand below
previously anticipated levels.  These impairments are not expected
to result in cash outlays, and the Company expects these
impairments to be incurred during the third quarter of 2011.

NEWPAGE CORP: Says Luke Plant is Not For Sale Despite Bankruptcy
----------------------------------------------------------------
Matthew Bieniek at Cumberland Times-News reports that NewPage
Corp. spokeswoman Shawn Hall said the Luke plant in Luke, Mayland,
is not for sale and will remain in operation even if NewPage files
for bankruptcy/

The stage is being set for a potential bankruptcy filing.  NewPage
is seeking out special loan agreements which will give the Company
enough cash to continue operating during bankruptcy, according to
The Wall Street Journal.

Ms. Hall said he did not offer details or confirmation of the
loans, but said the Company "has retained advisors to assist us in
exploring various restructuring alternatives, including the
possibility of seeking protection under Chapter 11 ... if we were
unable to refinance our debt or generate sufficient cash flow to
service our obligations. "

The report relates that those loans may not help the jobless Nova
Scotian workers when NewPage abruptly shut down their Point
Hawkesbury Mill last week.  The future of the Canadian plant is
unclear.

The Company called the action "downtime" because of market
conditions but did not provide a date for the plant to reopen.
NewPage added that the mill in Nova Scotia was unprofitable.  The
Cape Breton Post said the plant employed 600 people and another
400 were employed in spinoff jobs, including the harvesting and
transportation of wood for the mill.

The Luke plant employs 870 people.  NewPage, based in Miamisburg,
Ohio, owns mills in several states and Canada.

The report notes Allegany County's budget would be busted if the
Luke plant closed, since the company paid $700,000 in property
taxes last year and will likely pay a similar amount this year,
said County Finance Director Jason Bennett.

                        About NewPage Corp.

Headquartered in Miamisburg, Ohio, NewPage Corporation --
http://www.NewPageCorp.com/-- is a coated paper manufacturer in
North America, based on production capacity, with $3.1 billion in
net sales for the year ended Dec. 31, 2009.  The company's
product portfolio is the broadest in North America and includes
coated freesheet, coated groundwood, supercalendered, newsprint
and specialty papers.  These papers are used for corporate
collateral, commercial printing, magazines, catalogs, books,
coupons, inserts, newspapers, packaging applications and direct
mail advertising.

NewPage owns paper mills in Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Michigan,
Minnesota, Wisconsin and Nova Scotia, Canada.  These mills have a
total annual production capacity of approximately 4.4 million tons
of paper, including approximately 3.2 million tons of coated
paper, approximately 1.0 million tons of uncoated paper and
approximately 200,000 tons of specialty paper.

The Company's balance sheet at June 30, 2011, showed $3.36 billion
in total assets, $4.24 billion in total liabilities and a $879
million total deficit.

                        Bankruptcy Warning

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter on Aug. 22, 2011,
NewPage said in regulatory filings it has retained advisors to
assist it in exploring various restructuring alternatives and is
engaged in discussions with various stakeholders to address its
ongoing capital needs.  The Company said it cannot assure that it
will be able to refinance any of its indebtedness, or that it will
be able to do so on commercially reasonable terms.  If the Company
is unable to refinance its debt or generate sufficient cash flow
to service its obligations, the Company will be required to seek
to restructure its existing debt or to voluntarily seek, or be
forced to seek, protection under the Chapter 11 of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code and applicable Canadian laws.

Earlier this year, NewPage hired investment bank Lazard Ltd. and
law firm Dewey & LeBoeuf to negotiate with creditors.

NewPage has filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
its quarterly report on Form 10-Q reporting a net loss of $132
million on $888 million of net sales for the second quarter ended
June 30, 2011, compared with a net loss of $174 million on $890
million of net sales for the same period a year ago.

                           *     *     *

NewPage has 'Caa1' long term corporate family and probability of
default ratings from Moody's.

As reported by the TCR on Aug. 17, 2011, Standard & Poor's Ratings
Services lowered its corporate credit rating on Miamisburg, Ohio-
based NewPage Corp. to 'CCC' from 'CCC+'.

"The rating actions follow NewPage's recently announced weaker-
than-expected operating results for the quarter ended June 30,
2011, and the decision to hold off on its previously announced
asset sales," said Standard & Poor's credit analyst Tobias
Crabtree.  "Based on our lowered 2011 EBITDA expectations and the
likelihood of no additional material assets sales over the
upcoming months, we believe NewPage could be challenged to meet
its fixed charges, including over $160 million of cash interest
expense, during the remainder of 2011.  In addition, the company
faces significant debt maturities and the maturity of its
revolving credit facility within the next year if it cannot repay
or refinance its $1 billion of second-lien notes by December
2011."

forbearance agreement with respect to the scheduled principal and
interest payment in the approximate amount of $2,150,000 that was
due on March 31, 2010 under the Company's $25,000,000 secured
term-loan credit facility with Nedbank.  Nedbank Capital has also
declined to extend the forbearance agreement regarding the
Company's failure to make the payment of $697,869 due on April 6,
2010 under the Copper Hedge Agreement between the parties.  Both
forbearance agreements expired at midnight on May 13, 2010.

going concern, the auditors said.


NORTEL NETWORKS: Has $21.5 Million ERISA Suit Settlement
--------------------------------------------------------
Peg Brickley at Dow Jones' Daily Bankruptcy Review reports that
Nortel Networks Corp. has agreed to a $21.5 million settlement of
a lawsuit accusing it of breaching the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act by offering company stock as an investment option in
an employee-benefit plan.

According to the report, the liquidating telecommunications-
equipment maker announced the settlement as it prepares for an
intercompany battle over billions of dollars raised by the sale of
its businesses in bankruptcy.

The report says the settlement ends a lawsuit accusing Nortel and
some of its leaders of running afoul of the law by offering its
own stock as an investment option in an employee benefit plan
while allegedly failing to disclose the risks the investment
carried.

Without admitting liability, Nortel said in a court filing
Thursday it believes the settlement is an "efficient and
economical resolution" of litigation that could be protracted and
costly. If approved, the pact erases a $100 million claim the
litigants filed against Nortel in its U.S. Chapter 11 proceeding,
the report notes.

Funds for the settlement will come from Chubb Insurance Co.,
according to a filing Thursday in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in
Wilmington, Del.

       "Allocation Rules," the Side Agreement, and the

       reimbursement of the Global IP Costs from the other Nortel
       Debtors, including any rights arising under existing
       agreements.  This provision of the Side Agreement

Side Agreement Re: Certain Structural Matters, dated Junen 29,
2011, in connection with the Sale Agreement.  The Bankruptcy Court

of the Second Amended Tax Side Agreement in an abundance of
caution.

payment on secured claims with other distributions going in

OLSEN'S MILL: Archer Daniels to Acquire Grain Elevators
-------------------------------------------------------
Rick Romell at Journal Sentinel reports that Archer Daniels
Midland Co. will acquire the Wisconsin grain elevators run by
Olsen's Mill Inc. before it was forced into receivership in early
2009.

The purchase makes the Decatur, Ill., food-processing firm one of
the major grain handlers in Wisconsin, a state where it has only
limited operations, according to the report.  The elevators can
store up to 20 million bushels.

No price was disclosed.  However, Journal Sentinel says that the
sale of the elevators will generate more money for the creditors
of Olsen's, chiefly French bank BNP Paribas.

BNP Paribas led a lending group that was owed $58 million when
Olsen's entered receivership, Journal Sentinel notes.  A
subsequent court-approved sale of the troubled firm for $20
million yielded about $9 million for the banks -- less than 20% of
what they were owed, Journal Sentinel relates.

In early July, however, the Wisconsin Supreme Court said BNP
Paribas, which had objected to the receivership sale, should have
had veto rights over it, Journal Sentinel relays.

The report says that the court directed the circuit judge to see
about increasing the banks' compensation.  That paved the way for
the deal ADM announced, the report notes.

ADM will acquire nine elevators across southern and central
Wisconsin and lease a 10th in Green Bay.

OTERO COUNTY: Has Access to BofA Cash Collateral Until Feb. 16
--------------------------------------------------------------
On Aug. 17, 2011, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of
New Mexico approved the stipulation between Otero County Hospital
Association Inc. and Bank of America, N.A., authorizing the Debtor
to use cash collateral.

The Stipulation will terminate on the earliest to occur of (a)
Feb. 16, 2012, or (b) the occurrence of a "termination event";
provided, however, that, so long as no termination event has
occurred or is continuing, the Term may be extended for two
consecutive periods of three months each if the Bank agrees in
writing to any such extension.

The Debtor will pay to the Bank a stipulation fee in the amount of
$225,000 within two (2) business days of the entry of a
Stipulation Approval Order approving the Stipulation Fee on a
final basis.

The Stipulation authorizes, inter alia, the Debtor to perform its
obligations under the Lease and the Prepetition Financing
Documents, including by paying all amounts due on the Bonds when
due.

As adequate protection, the Bank will have and is granted the
Replacement Liens in all assets and property of the Debtor and all
proceeds, rents, products, or profits, subject to a Carve-Out,
which includes required payments of U.S. Trustee's fees as well as
estate professional fees not to exceed $250,000.

To the extent the Replacement Liens are insufficient to protect
Bank's interests in the Prepetition Collateral, the Bank is
granted and will have an allowed superpriority claim as provided
under Section 507(b) of the Bankruptcy Code.

A final hearing on the Motion to consider approval of the
Stipulation on a final basis will be held on Sept. 8, 2011, at
9:00 a.m. before the Court.

Any party in interest objecting to the Court's entry of a final
order approving the Stipulation as requested by the Debtor will
file a written objection with the Court on or before Sept. 6,
2011, at 12:00 p.m.

                         Background Facts

In 2007 the Debtor entered into a series of agreements to obtain
approximately $38 million in financing.  The financing was raised
in a municipal bond offering made by the City of Alamogordo.  In
exchange, the Debtor transferred the Hospital, including the real
property upon which the Hospital is located, to the City and
agreed to lease it back pursuant to the terms of a lease
agreement.

As further security for the bond offering, the Debtor obtained a
letter of credit from the Bank in favor of the indenture trustee
for the bonds.  The Debtor is obligated to reimburse the Bank for
draws made on the letter of credit pursuant to the terms of a
reimbursement agreement.  Such obligations, in turn, are secured,
among other things, by the hospital and the equipment and supplies
located therein.

The trust indenture gives the Bank the right to cause the
indenture trustee to redeem the bonds through a draw on the letter
of credit upon the occurrence of an "Event of Default" under the
reimbursement agreement.  Events of Default include the Debtor's
commencement of a Chapter 11 case and the failure of the Debtor to
maintain 110 days "cash on hand" (as defined in Section 5.1(q) of
the Reimbursement Agreement).

In order to prevent the acceleration of the bonds as a result of
the commencement of the Debtor's Chapter 11 case, the Debtor
contacted the Bank and attempted to negotiate an adequate
protection stipulation that would prevent the redemption of the
bonds while the Debtor attempted to resolve the Lawsuits in an
fair and equitable manner.  The Stipulation embodies the tentative
agreement of the parties.

The Lawsuits refer to the onslaught of personal injury lawsuits
stemming from a series of procedures performed at the Hospital
that were filed between 2006 and 2008 against the Debtor, along
with Quorum Health Resources, LLC, and a number of other
defendants.  QHR runs the day to day management of the Hospital
and its other healthcare services.

P&C POULTRY: Plan Outline Hearing Continued Until Sept. 14
----------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of California
approved a stipulation continuing until Sept. 14, 2011, at
9:30 a.m., the hearing to consider adequacy of the Disclosure
Statement explaining P&C Poultry Distributors, Inc., and Custom
Processors, Inc.'s Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization.  The
deadline for the Debtors to file and serve a reply will also be
extended until Sept. 7, 2011.

The stipulation was entered among the Debtors, East West Bank, the
Official Committee of Creditors Holding Unsecured Claims, the
Office of the U.S. Trustee, and County Sanitation District No. 21
of Los Angeles County.

The Debtors will begin soliciting votes on the Plan following
approval of the Disclosure Statement.

At the hearing, the Court will also consider objections to the
Disclosure Statement.

The U.S. Trustee for Region 16 requested that the Court require an
amendment of the Disclosure Statement and Plan to address certain
concerns on the Disclosure Statement.  The U.S. Trustee contended
that the Disclosure Statement does not contain adequate
information, noting that, among other things:

   -- the Debtor did not affirmatively state whether there are any
      preferences and fraudulent transfers;

   -- the Debtor has disbursed an increased amount to certain
      insiders for payment of health insurance -- in particular:
      $2,450/ month for Michael Bennish and $2,198/month for
      Daniel Bennish; and

   -- the Debtor must specifically explain which it begins paying
      expense of $49,800 each month starting Oct. 2011.

In a separate motion, the Committee said that the Court must deny
the Debtors' Disclosure Statement because it lacked adequate
information.  The Committee related that the Disclosure Statement
does not disclose, among other things:

   -- amounts owed under the court approved postpetition financing
      arrangement;

   -- the postpetition ordinary course payables
      that will be due and owing on the Effective Date of the
      Plan; and

   -- the Employment of post-confirmation management.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on July 29, 2011,
according to the Disclosure Statement, the Plan will be funded by
cash on hand as of the effective date and the Reorganized Debtor's
post confirmation business operations and earnings.  The
Reorganized Debtor's post confirmation board of directors will be
comprised of Michael Bennish, Daniel Bennish and Bruce Weinstein.

Under the Plan, East West Bank's secured claim be allowed in the
amount of $8,900,000, which amount will accrue interest at 6% per
annum, will be fully amortized over 10 year and will be all due
and payable on the fifth anniversary of the effective date.  East
West Bank will receive monthly payments of $98,808.

Priority claims will be paid in full under the Plan.

Some or all of the Debtors' unexpired leases and executory
contracts will be assumed upon Plan confirmation.

General unsecured non-insider creditors, which the Debtor
currently estimate will total $16,500,000 in allowed claims as of
the Petition Date, will receive payments on their claims equal to
10% of each allowed claims.

PARAMOUNT LIMITED: Receiver Ready to Collect, Wants Case Dismissal
------------------------------------------------------------------
Paramount Limited, LLC, et al., ask the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for
the Eastern District of Michigan to dismiss their Chapter 11
cases.

The Debtors relate that James V. McTevia, the receiver, already
has an established framework to collect Debtors' receivables.

The Debtor also state that there is no reasonable likelihood of
being able to rehabilitate their business where they will in a
position where they would be able to reorganize and propose a
confirmable Plan.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on Aug. 10, 2011, the
Police & Fire Retirement System of the City of Detroit, Michigan,
and McTevia & Associates, the court-appointed receiver, requested
that the Court dismiss the Debtor's case.

The receiver contended there is no likelihood that the Debtors can
reorganize under Chapter 11 and that the bankruptcy case was filed
in bad faith.  The Pension Fund asserted the Debtors are incapable
of operating their business.

-----------------------------------------------------

LLC's Chapter 11 case on the grounds it's tainted with bad faith.

                      About Pegasus Rural

Pegasus Rural Broadband, LLC, and its affiliates, including
Xanadoo Holdings Inc., sought Chapter 11 protection (Bankr. D.
Del. Lead Case No. 11-11772) on June 10, 2011.

The Debtors are subsidiaries of Xanadoo Company, a 4G wireless
Internet provider.  Xanadoo Co. was not among the Chapter 11
filers.

The subsidiaries sought Chapter 11 protection after they were
unable to restructure $52 million in 12.5% senior secured
promissory notes that matured in May.  The notes are owing to
Beach Point Capital Management LP.

Xanadoo Holdings, through Xanadoo LLC -- XLC -- offers wireless
high-speed broadband service, including digital phone services,
under the Xanadoo brand utilizing licensed frequencies in the 2.5
GHz frequency band.  As of May 31, 2011, XLC served 12,000
subscribers in Texas, Oklahoma and Illinois.  In the summer of
2010, the Debtors closed all of their retail stores and kiosks in

PERCY MILLER: Harris & Ruble Updates on Case
--------------------------------------------
Harris & Ruble, counsel for the "Uncle P" crew, have acted to
place Percy Miller, a/k/a "Master P" and "Monstahh," in personal
bankruptcy.  Previously Miller had placed his No Limit Records
under bankruptcy protection.  The successor, No Limit Forever
Records, is now purportedly owned by Miller's son, "Lil' Romeo."
The present Miller bankruptcy has its roots in the insolvency
related to "Uncle P," a Lil' Romeo motion picture. Although the
Master P film, staring Lil' Romeo, was released in 2007, to this
date the crew remains unpaid for their work.


PIEDMONT CENTER: Directed to File Plan & Disclosures by Nov. 9
--------------------------------------------------------------
To ensure that the case is handled expeditiously, the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina has
ordered Piedmont Center Investments, LLC, to file a plan and
disclosure statement no later than Nov. 9, 2011.

Piedmont Center Investments, LLC, is a North Carolina limited
liability company engaged in the leasing and management of its
realty property business with its principal office in Raleigh,
North Carolina.  The Debtor is the owner and manager of seven
shopping centers located in (i) Graham, Alamance County, North
Carolina; (ii) Mebane, Alamance County, North Carolina; (iii)
Pittsboro, Chatham County, North Carolina; (iv) Gibsonville,

PIEDMONT CENTER: Has Emergency Motion to Use Cash Collateral
------------------------------------------------------------
Piedmont Center Investments, LLC, asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Eastern District of North Carolina to approve its
emergency motion to use cash collateral of its two primary secured
creditors, Business Partners, LLC, and KeySource Commercial Bank,
in order to allow it to remain in business.

The Debtor proposes that Business Partners and Keysource should be
allowed, as adequate protection for the Debtor's use of their cash
collateral, a post-petition replacement lien and security interest
on the rents to which its liens attached prepetition, to the same
extent and with the same validity and priority as existed
on the Petition Date.

KeySource, owed in the principal amount of $3,800,000, which
obligation is secured by the Debtor's real property commonly known
as the Mebane Shopping Center, located at 101-105 South 5th
Street, N.C., objects to the use of its cash collateral.

KeySource says a replacement is insufficient to adequately protect
its interest in the rents.  It therefore requests the Court to
deny the motion and to order that its interest be adequately
protected.

Counsel for KeySource may be reached at:

PRIVATE MEDIA: Files Emergency Writ to Block Receivership
---------------------------------------------------------
Rhett Pardon at XBIZ.com reports that Private Media Group has
formally filed with the Nevada Supreme Court an emergency writ to
stay the motion for receivership, claiming the judge in the case
abused her discretion in appointing a receiver.

The appointment of a receiver for the multinational adult
entertainment company is potentially damning, Private counsel
said, and already the receiver -- Sureflix unit Chief Executive
Officer Eric Johnson -- hasn't wasted any time in exercising his
authority, including with its finances, according to the report.

The report notes that Private said in its emergency writ to the
Nevada Supreme Court that Johnson's "first act as receiver may be
all that is required to destroy this company and its
subsidiaries."

Private said it wants the motion for receivership vacated because
the appointment of a receiver is not authorized under Nevada
corporate statutes and that Clark County Judge Elizabeth Gonzalez
abused her discretion in setting forth "a remedy that is unduly
harsh," XBIZ.com discloses.

"The unduly harsh remedy of appointing a receiver would create
further disruption, likely resulting in an additional reduction of
the stock price and the appointment could jeopardize and disrupt
relations with vendors and customer, and lead to delisting from
Nasdaq and the calling of loans," Private said in its motion
obtained by the news agency.

XBIZ.com relays that Private, which has criticized the judge for
"personal bias," also said that Judge Gonzalez already knew and
openly discussed the action she was going to take before the day
of the hearing.

When Judge Gonzalez gave Johnson, a Private shareholder and
Sureflix division CEO, the reins of Private, she gave the newly
appointed receiver the immediate, free-wielding authority to
exercise dominant control over the company, including the removal
of directors and officers.

Judge Gonzalez's ruling was frank and could lead to organizational
changes and ousters within the company, which has nearly 20
divisions, XBIZ.com notes.

The report says that the following day after the receivership was
ordered, Private said in a filing with the Securities and Exchange
Commission that the board would remain intact until the next
shareholders vote at a later date.

The appointment of Mr. Johnson as receiver and surrounding legal
claims taking place at Clark County District Court are the result
of litigation between former Chief Executive Officer Ilan
Bunimovitz and Private since his firing in July 2010, XBIZ.com
says.

In the suit, XBIZ.com relates Mr. Bunimovitz claims he was
terminated for demanding a probe of Chief Executive Officer Berth
Milton's alleged "self-dealing" transactions that total $10
million.

Mr. Bunimovitz's lawsuit, which included Private creditor and co-
plaintiff Consipio Holding BV, alleges mismanagement of the
company's business by three Private directors and Milton, XBIZ.com
notes.  Mr. Bunimovitz continues to have a vested interest in the
stock.

Private counsel is hoping the Nevada Supreme Court hears oral
arguments on the emergency writ on Sept. 8, when another Private
appeals another matter in the case, XBIZ.com adds.


PROGNOZ SILVER: Moscow Terminated Bankruptcy, Says High River
-------------------------------------------------------------
High River Gold Mines Ltd. was informed that the Arbitration Court
of the City of Moscow terminated the official bankruptcy
proceedings for Prognoz Silver LLC in connection with the
application of Prognoz Silver claiming that the criteria of
bankruptcy are no longer in place.  As previously disclosed, the
application to put Prognoz Silver into bankruptcy was initially
filed by Prognoz Silver itself.  High River holds a 50% indirect
interest in Prognoz Silver, which operates the Prognoz silver
project in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), Russia.

High River and OJSC Buryatzoloto, which participated in financing
the expenditures at the Prognoz silver project, are considering
and evaluating the future steps with regard to Prognoz Silver and
development of the Prognoz silver project.

                      About High River

High River is an unhedged gold company with interests in producing
mines and advanced exploration projects in Russia and Burkina
Faso. Two underground mines, Zun-Holba and Irokinda, are situated
in the Lake Baikal region of Russia.  Two open pit gold mines,
Berezitovy in Russia and Taparko-Bouroum in Burkina Faso, are also
in production.  Finally, High River has a 90% interest in a
development project, the Bissa gold project in Burkina Faso, and a
50% interest in an advanced exploration project with NI 43-101
compliant resource estimates, the Prognoz silver project in

PROMETRIC INC: Moody's Upgrades Corporate Family Rating to 'Ba3'
----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service upgraded Prometric Inc.'s corporate
family rating to Ba3 from B1, the probability-of-default rating to
Ba3 from B1, and the rating on the senior secured credit
facilities to Baa3 from Ba2. The ratings outlook remains stable.

Ratings upgraded:

Corporate family rating to Ba3 from B1;

Probability-of-default rating to Ba3 from B1;

$12.5 million senior secured revolving credit facility due 2012 to
Baa3 (LGD2, 16%) from Ba2 (LGD2, 19%);

$86.5 million senior secured term loan due 2013 to Baa3 (LGD2,
16%) from Ba2 (LGD2, 19%).

RATINGS RATIONALE

The ratings upgrade reflects Prometric's success in growing the
top line and expanding its operating margins despite the soft
macroeconomic environment as well as its generally stable
operating performance through the recession. The upgrade also
considers material internally-funded debt reduction that has
contributed to an improvement in credit metrics.

Leverage, as measured by debt to EBITDA, improved to 2.4 times
through the twelve months ended June 30, 2011 from 3.1 times as of
2010 year-end (including Moody's standard analytical adjustments).
The improvement was driven by a combination of higher EBITDA and
repayment of long-term debt, which was reduced by approximately
30% since the end of 2010. In addition, free cash flow as a
percentage of debt improved to approximately 20% from 15% over the
same period.

The stable outlook reflects Moody's expectation that Prometric
will increase its earnings and apply free cash flow to debt
reduction such that leverage will approach or decline below 2.0
times and EBITDA less capex to interest will exceed 4.0 times over
the next year.

While a further upgrade is unlikely given Prometric's relatively
moderate scale, in the event that it sustainably increases its
relative scale without increasing debt, the ratings could
experience positive pressure.

If the loss of a material contract and/or erosion in margins
(potentially implying a change in business mix) pressures
Prometric's operating performance such that debt to EBITDA exceeds
3.5 or EBITDA less capex coverage of interest expense falls below
3.5 times, this could pressure the outlook and/or ratings. Any use
of cash outside of Moody's expectations, including material debt-
financed acquisitions, could also have negative rating
implications.

Additional information can be found in the Prometric Credit
Opinion published on Moodys.com.

The principal methodology used in rating Prometric Inc. was the
Global Business & Consumer Service Industry Rating Methodology
published in October 2010. Other methodologies used include Loss
Given Default for Speculative-Grade Non-Financial Companies in the
U.S., Canada and EMEA published in June 2009.

Headquartered in Baltimore, Maryland, Prometric Inc. is a provider

development and delivery for government entities, professional

technology clients.


PURSELL HOLDINGS: Has Lender's Consent for Cash Collateral Use
--------------------------------------------------------------
The Hon. Jerry W. Venters of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Western District of Missouri authorized Pursell Holdings LLC to
use Morrill & Janes Bank'S cash collateral.

The bank said it made two loans on which Debtor is currently
obligated and duly filed its proofs of claim in the case for
$188,726 and $173,819.  The Debtor acknowledges and agrees that
the claims are valid and allowable against the estate.  The Claims
are secured by valid and perfected liens against the residential
properties located in 10215 N. Lawn Avenue and 4719 Northeast
102nd Court in Kansas City, Missouri.

The Debtor said it seeks to retain the properties in order to sell
them and realize any net equity value for the benefit of the
estate.  Lender is willing to accommodate Debtor and forebear from
seeking stay relief subject to Debtor's agreement to certain
specific terms and conditions for adequate protection of Lender
and disposition of the properties.

The Debtor said it will (i) make all installment payments now due
and outstanding under the loans to bring same current, (ii)
continue to remit the installment payments to lender by the 5th
day of each month, (iii) continue to accrue interest post-petition
at the rate of 4.75% together with Lender's attorney fees and
costs, (iv) proceeds of any sales of the properties shall be
applied as set forth in the Stipulation and Debtor shall not be
entitled to any sale proceeds until Lender is paid in full, (v)
pay all delinquent real estate taxes on the Properties and any
insurance premiums relating to coverage of the Properties, and
(vi)consents to stay relief or otherwise execute deeds in lieu of

RC SOONER: Tosses Out Suit Against Remy Family
----------------------------------------------
Robert Evatt at Tulsa World reports RC Sooner Holdings LLC has
abandoned its suits against the Remy family of real estate
investors over the sale of a series of apartments.

The report says the motion was granted within RC Sooner's ongoing
chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court of
the Northern District of Oklahoma.

According to the report, the properties in question, formerly
owned by the Remys and purchased by RC Sooner, included Brixton

South Apartments, 4631 S. Braden Ave., and Salida Apartments,
10129-10151 E. 32nd St.

RC Sooner's suits claimed the family knew the properties were in
foreclosure when they were sold and the other claiming the Remys'
actions forced RC Sooner to file for bankruptcy.

The report notes all eight properties, as well as Executive Series
Apartments, 3225 S. Winston Ave., were foreclosed on last year for
failure to pay at least $28.7 million in mortgages held by Fannie

ROUND TABLE: Has Access to Lenders' Cash Collateral Until Sept. 30
------------------------------------------------------------------
On July 29, 2011, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern
District of California entered an Eight Interim Order authorizing
Round Table Pizza, Inc., et al., to use cash collateral through
5:00 p.m. on Sept. 30, 2011.

Nothwithstanding the foregoing, unless the Lenders otherwise agree
in writing, the Debtors' authorization to use cash collateral will
automatically terminate, excluding regularly scheduled payroll, in
the event that:

  (i) its cash balance drops below $3.5 million as measured at the
      end of each week during the Specific Period;

(ii) actual receipts from its restaurant operations drop below
      80% of the "Restaurant" receipts reflected on the Budget as
      measured on a weekly basis, or fall below 90% on a
      cumulative basis from May 1, 2011, through the then-current
      week;

(iii) its cumulative actual operating disbursements exceed 110% of
      cumulative operating disbursements set forth in the Budget
      as measured weekly on a cumulative basis from May 1, 2011,
      through the then-current week; provided that, in the event
      that Round Table exceeds it cumulative "Restaurant" receipts
      during such measurement period, for purposes of calculating
      compliance with this clause (iii) the Budget amount for
      disbursements will be deemed to be increased in the same
      proportion as actual "Restaurant" receipts exceed those
      reflected on the Budget for such measurement period;

(iv) its cumulative capital expenditures, as identified in the
      row so entitled in the Budget, will exceed $750,000
      following May 1, 2011.

  (v) its post-petition accounts payable and accrued expenses, as
      reported in the row so entitled in its Monthly Operating
      Report, will exceed $2.5 million.

The Agent, for and on behalf of itself, the Lenders and all other
parties entitled to the benefit of liens or security interests
under the pre-petition documentation between Round Table and the
Lenders, is granted replacement liens against Round Table's post-
petition assets (other than rights and causes of action arising
under Chapter 5 of the Bankruptcy Code).

On Aug. 19, 2011, Round Table filed a precautionary motion to use
cash collateral, Docket No. 765, to pay cure amounts for leases
assumed by the Debtors.  The motion is being made out of an
abundance of caution and due to the fact that the existing cash
collateral budget provides for this payment on Oct. 1, 2011,
instead of Sept. 1, 2011.  Consequently, funding the cure amounts
when due will violate the existing cash collateral order.

Round Table tells the Court that although it has generally paid
all amounts due under its leases as they come due, the February
rent was not paid as a result of the filing of Round Table's
bankruptcy cases.  As a result, a cure payment in the amount of
unpaid February rent and common area maintenance (CAM) charges
will be required by Section 365(b) on assumption of most leases.
Round Table has received several objections to its stated Cure
Amounts, and expects that the relatively modest discrepancies can
be resolved.

Round Table submits that no further "adequate protection" is
required to protect GECC / Prudential's interests, and that Round
Table should be authorized to use cash collateral to fund
"cure" payments required by Section 365 as to leases assumed
pursuant to orders of the Court.

SBARRO INC: Creditors, BNY Mellon Object to Asset Sale
------------------------------------------------------
Roxanne Palmer at Bankruptcy Law360 reports that Sbarro Inc.'s
proposed Chapter 11 asset sale met opposition Friday from the
bankrupt pizza chain's unsecured creditors committee and indenture
trustee Bank of New York Mellon Corp., who say the bidding
procedures are too inflexible.

According to Law360, BNY Mellon and the creditors committee said
Sbarro's proposal discourages competitive bidding because it only
allows bids on the entire business, rather than parts of the
company or specific "buckets" of assets, such as Sbarro's
intellectual property or lease portfolio.

Dow Jones' DBR Small Cap reports that Bank of New York Mellon, the

SHENGDATECH INC: Special Committee Wants Michael Kang Named as CRO
------------------------------------------------------------------
The Special Committee of the Board of Directors of Shengdatech,
Inc., notified the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of
Nevada supports the Debtor's motion to confirm the (I) employment
of Alvarez & Marsal North America, LLC, to provide the Debtor a
chief restructuring officer and certain additional personnel and
(II) appointment of Michael Kang as chief restructuring officer.

The board of directors delegated to the Special Committee
authorization (1) to conduct an investigation of potentially
serious discrepancies and unexplained issues identified by KMPG;
(2) to take any legal or other action(s) that the Special
Committee in its sole discretion deems in the best interest of the
Company and its stockholders; and (3) to commence any actions as
may be needed to identify, collect and safeguard the Company's
assets.

Thus, after careful deliberations over options available to the
Debtor, the Special Committee decided that the appointment of
Mr. Kang as CRO and his firm Alvarez and Marsal would be the best
option under chapter 11 to maximize value for stakeholders as
opposed to seeking the appointment of a chapter 11 trustee.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on Sept. 5, 2011, the
Debtor sought permission to appoint chief restructuring officer
Michael Kang and A. Carl Mudd and Sheldon Saidman, members of the
Special Committee of the Board of Directors of Shengdatech Inc. as
representatives authorized to act on behalf of the Debtor.

According to the report, by virtue of the CRO's appointment which
was confirmed by this Court and the Special Committee's powers
granted under the Resolution, the Debtor believes that the CRO and
the Members are already statutorily authorized representatives of
the Debtor under Nevada law.

SHENGDATECH INC: Spl. Committee Wants Injunction vs. Shareholders
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The Special Committee of the Board of Directors of Shengdatech,
Inc., asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Nevada to
enter judgment against Xiangzhi Chen, et al.

Specifically, the Special Committee asks that the Court enjoin the
shareholders and the Debtor's board from interfering with the
Special Committee or CRO, or take any steps to remove the members
of the Special Committee or the CRO, or to modify any of the
powers granted to the Special Committee or the CRO pursuant to the
March 4, 2011, resolution or the Aug. 19, 2011, resolution or any
powers delegated thereunder.

The Special Committee notes that the Debtor's former management
thwarted and obstructed the Special Committee's effort to obtain a
true understanding of the Debtor's affairs.

The Special Committee relates that it is authorized and directed
the filing of a Chapter 11 case, on behalf of the Debtor, in order
to restructure the Debtor's business operations and to allow the
Debtor, through its Special Committee, to continue its ongoing
special investigation into the financial affairs of the Debtor and
the actions which occurred under the direction and knowledge of
former management, including the Debtor's former president and
chief executive officer and largest shareholder, Chen Xiangzhi.

As part of the special investigation, the Special Committee has
determined that certain of the Debtor's financial records may have
been falsified in whole or in part and that serious issues remain
unanswered regarding the financial condition of the Debtor and its
overall business operations.

In this relation, the Special Committee, after consultation with
the Debtor's business and legal professionals, removed the
management, including Mr. Chen and appoint an independent party,
Michael Kang, of Alvarez & Marsal North America LLP to act as
chief restructuring officer and the Debtor's sole officer.

SHERRILL MANUFACTURING: Resumes Production After Year Off
---------------------------------------------------------
RomeSentinel.com repots that, after an 11-month shutdown, flatware
production has resumed at Sherrill Manufacturing.  This first
production run will last for six to eight weeks and was made
possible by "a substantial order that the company received for
made-in-America product."

According to the report, the announcement comes 11 months after
the company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.  In the
meantime, in April, the company began manufacturing a product for
Coffee Joulies, a oval, golf ball-sized stainless steel bean
designed to keep coffee hot for hours.

The Sherrill Manufacturing complex has multiple manufacturing,
warehousing and office structures totaling just over 1.1 million
square feet sitting on approximately 94 acres of land.  The site
was established in the early 1800s.  The original factory
manufactured bear traps, canned goods and leather items.  In the
late 1800s the facility began to produce silverware.  Ownership
passed to Oneida Ltd. in 1880 and production was dramatically
increased through the 1990s.  Oneida Ltd. ceased manufacturing
operations in North America and sold the facility to Sherrill
Manufacturing on March 22, 2005.

The current owners, Matthew Roberts and Gregory Owens, founded
SMI to operate as an independent supplier to Oneida Ltd.  They are
now transforming the company into a manufacturing and service
organization offering a range of products to customers throughout
North America.

Based in New Yok, Sherrill Manufacturing Inc. filed for Chapter 11
bankruptcy protection (Bankr. N.D.N.Y. Case no. 10-62669) on Oct.
4, 2010.  Neil Joseph Smith, Esq., at Mackenzie Hughes LLP
represents the Debtor.  The Debtor estimated both assets and debts

Shops at Prestonwood, LP's motion to sell its single family
residential lots.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on May 31, 2011, the
Debtor sought for authorization to:

   -- sell six single family residential lots to insider
      Prestonwood Custom Homes, L.P., for $65,000 per lot, or a
      total price of $390,000;

   -- pay claims of any taxing authorities attributable to the

convert the Debtor's case to Chapter 7 or, in the alternative,
dismiss the Debtor's case, pointing that the Debtor has zero cash,
that all of its real property assets are encumbered, and that its
affiliates are unsecured creditors.  The Debtor has not equity in
any of its real estate and no cash to develop Phase II of its
current development.  The Debtor is relying on a March 2007
appraisal to assert its position that equity exists in the 17=acre
parcel of unimproved real property which lies adjacent to its
current development, according to the creditors.

The Creditors added that the Debtor has no ability to reorganize
and no ability to adequate protect its current secured creditors.
The Debtor has no operating income and is incurring deepening
losses while operating in Chapter 11.

SHOPS AT PRESTONWOOD: Plan Outline Hearing Scheduled for Sept. 15
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas will
convene a hearing on Sept. 15, 2011, at 1:30 p.m., to consider
adequacy of the Disclosure Statement explaining The Shops at
Prestonwood, LP's Chapter 11 Plan.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on Aug. 3, 2011, the
Debtor filed a proposed Chapter 11 plan of reorganization on
June 30, and an explanatory disclosure statement on July 14.

The Plan provides for the Debtor to continue to manage and operate
its properties.  The Reorganized Debtor will use net cash flow
from the properties, funds on deposit, and funds from equity
Holders, and sale proceeds to fund the distributions required
under the Plan.

The Equity Holders will advance sufficient funds to the Debtor to
enable the Debtor to pay all amounts necessary to effectuate and
implement and perform under the Plan, including, but not limited
to, administrative costs, expenses, priority claims, interest
payments provided by the Plan, and development costs related to
Phase II of the Shops Development.

With respect to the Phase I of the Shops Development, in the event
of a sale of a particular Lot within the five-year period
following the Effective Date, the proceeds comprising the Adjusted
Purchase Price will first be used to pay in full any allowed
secured claim for which such lot serves as collateral.  Any
remaining proceeds will be distributed to general unsecured
claimants under Class 9 until they are paid in full, without
interest.  To the extent Class 9 claims are satisfied, holders of
subordinated claims of insiders under Class 10 will receive the
proceeds until such time they are paid in full.

With respect to Phase II, the Equity Holders will contribute to
the Debtor any amounts necessary to develop Phase II and the Land
into the marketable and saleable residential townhome Phase II
Lots, including, but not limited to, obtaining final plat
approval, securing permits to begin development of the Phase II
Lots, and actually developing the Phase II Lots.

The Debtor expects to begin to develop the Phase II Lots six
months prior to the sale of all of the Phase I Lots, which is
anticipated to occur within thirty months from the Effective Date.
Upon the development of the Phase II Lots, the Debtor will seek to
market and sell the Phase II Lots within Phase II.  In the event
of a sale of a particular Phase II Lot within the five year period
following the Effective Date, the proceeds comprising the Adjusted
Purchase Price will first be used to pay in full any allowed
secured claims, then the general unsecured claims, and then the
subordinated claims.

SOLAR DRIVE: U.S. Trustee Protests Employment of General Counsel
----------------------------------------------------------------
Peter C. Anderson, the U.S. Trustee for Region 16, objected to
Solar Drive LLC's request to employ Carolyn A. Dye as general
insolvency counsel.

According to the U.S. Trustee, the application provides that the
Debtor has only nominal cash on hand.  The Debtor's primary
beneficial owner, Time Devine, wishes to ensure that the Debtor
has counsel and is prepared to personally guarantee payment of Mr.
Dye's fees.  Further, the application admits that the Mr. Devine
is himself a creditor of the Debtor, having previously advanced
funds to the Debtor and provided as-yet-uncompensated services to
the Debtor over the course of the project development.

The U.S. Trustee says it is well set that by accepting payment
from a third party, proposed counsel for a debtor has a conflict
of interest because counsel's loyalties are divided between the
debtor and the party who paid the attorney on the debtor's behalf.

Troubled Company Reporter on Aug. 30, 2011 said, upon retention,
the firm, will among other things:

   a) provide Debtor with legal advice and guidance with respect
      to the powers, duties, rights, and obligations of a debtor
      in possession and to provide assistance with analysis and
      negotiations of financing opportunities for the Debtor's
      Property and/or the sale or other disposition of the
      Property or portions of it;

   b) provide advice regarding cash collateral and negotiations
      with secured creditors;  and

   c) assist the Debtor in any legal matters that might arise as a
      result if the Debtor's business.

Ms. Dye received no retainer from the Debtor pre-petition but did
receive $1,039 for the petition filing.

The firm's rates are:

   Personnel                                    Rate
   ---------                                    ----

   Ms. Dye                                     $450/hour

SOUTHWEST GEORGIA: Lenders Poised to Take Over $194.5MM Plant
-------------------------------------------------------------
Dow Jones' DBR Small Cap reports that lenders owed $107.6 million

operations commenced in October 2008.  Revenue was $168.9 million
for fiscal year ended Sept. 30, 2010.  The Debtor said

unfavorable fluctuations in commodity prices for ethanol and corn.

Atlanta, Georgia, serves as counsel to the Debtor.  Morgan Keegan
& Company, Inc., is the investment banker and financial advisor.

       the Debtor and Crystalox Limited, pursuant to which the
       Debtor agreed to purchase silicon wafers from Crystalox.

Mark W. Wege, Esq., at King & Spalding LLP, in Houston, Texas,
asserts that the Debtor no longer requires the use of the OHSU
space and has discontinued its operations there.  He also contends
that the Debtor no longer requires delivery of silicon wafers
because it has discontinued its solar cell manufacturing
operations.

The Debtor does not believe that the OHSU Lease and the Supply
Agreement would have any value to a potential purchaser of its
assets.  Mr. Wege points out that the OHSU Lease and the Supply
Agreement provide no benefit to the bankruptcy estate and may lead
to the filing of postpetition administrative claims against the
estate if they are not rejected.  Accordingly, the Debtor believes
that immediate rejection of these agreements is in the best
interest of the Debtor's estate.

   (b) protect and preserve the bankruptcy estate of the Debtor,
       including the prosecution and defense of actions on the

       orders, reports, and other papers in connection with the
       administration of the Debtor's estates;

SPECTRAWATT INC: Seeks to Employ Three Sales Agents
---------------------------------------------------
SpectraWatt, Inc., seeks permission from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Southern District of New York to employ Heritage Global
Partners, Counsel RB Capital LLC and Silicon Valley Disposition
Inc. as Sales Agent to the Debtor, nunc pro tunc to the Petition
Date, under the terms of that certain Exclusive Sales Agent
Agreement, dated as of July 25, 2011.  As stated in the Sales
Agent Agreement, HGP, Counsel RB, and SVD will be retained by the
Debtor on a joint venture basis to conduct a sale of the Debtor's
assets.

The employment arrangement is beneficial to the Debtor's
bankruptcy estate and the compensation arrangement provides
certainty and proper inducement for the Sales Agent to act
expeditiously and prudently with respect to the matters for which
it will be employed, which includes coordinating and conducting an
auction and sale of the Debtor's assets, Mark W. Wege, Esq., at
King & Spalding LLP, in Houston, Texas, tells the Court.

The material terms of the proposed engagement include:

   (a) The Sales Agent will charge a buyer's premium of 15% of
       the aggregate gross proceeds for the sale of an Asset, or
       a lot of Assets, payable by the buyers of the asset or
       assets.  The Debtor's estate is not responsible for any
       unpaid portion of the Buyer's Premium;

   (b) The Sales Agent is not charging the Debtor any seller's
       commission;

   (c) The Debtor will be responsible for maintaining adequate
       insurance coverage for the Assets;

   (d) The Sales Agent has a right of reimbursement of actually
       incurred marketing expenses, like labor, advertising and
       travel costs, up to $50,000;

   (e) None of HGP, Counsel RB or SVD have any rights of
       compensation, or reimbursement of expenses from the
       Debtor's estate, except as stated in (d); and

   (f) The Debtor agrees to defend and indemnify the Sales Agent
       and hold the Sales Agent harmless from and against any
       claim or liability asserted by any third party based on
       the alleged existence or breach of any alleged warranties.

HGP, Counsel RB and SVD assure the Court that each of them is a
"disinterested person" within the meaning of Section 101(14) of
the Bankruptcy Code.

STELLAR GT: Hearing on Case Dismissal Plea Set for Oct. 10
----------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Maryland will
convene a hearing on Oct. 4, 2011 at 2:00 p.m., to consider the
request to dismiss the Chapter 11 case of Stellar GT TIC LLC and
VFF TIC LLC, or in the alternative convert the case to one under
Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on July 26, 2011,
W. Clarkson McDow Jr., the U.S. Trustee for Region 4, asked that
the Court dismiss the Debtors' cases, or convert the cases to
Chapter 7 liquidation proceedings.

The U.S. Trustee told the Court that the Debtors have the same
two secured creditors: (1) Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., which is owed
more than $207 million; and (2) General Electric Company, which
has a mechanic's lien that the Debtors dispute and claim is
"undetermined."  The Debtors have filed these bankruptcy cases
to sell the Georgian for the sole and exclusive benefit of its
secured creditors.  As there are no unsecured creditors, these
bankruptcy cases could not have been filed to protect the rights
of, or for the benefit of, unsecured creditors, note the trustee.

According to the U.S. Trustee, the Debtors have no intent of
reorganizing, and both will be dissolved after the bankruptcy.
The Georgian will be sold to a third party or to Wells Fargo.  If
Wells Fargo has the winning credit bid, then Stellar's interest
in the Georgian will be transferred to VFF, and VFF's 100%
interest in the Georgian will be transferred to a new entity
called FCP Fund 1 Trust.  The plan provides no information about
FCP Fund 1 Trust, the U.S. Trustee points out.

                 About Stellar GT TIC and VFF TIC

Stellar GT TIC LLC and VFF TIC LLC, owners of the Georgian
apartments located at 8750 Georgia Avenue in Silver Spring,
Maryland, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection (Bankr. D.
Md. Case Nos. 11-22977 and 11-22980) on June 22, 2011.  Judge
Wendelin I. Lipp oversees the case.  Michelle Maloney-Raymond is
the case administrator.  Matthew G. Summers, Esq., at Ballard
Spahr LLP, serves as the Debtors' counsel.

The Debtors negotiated a plan of reorganization before filing for
Chapter 11.  The proposed plan is premised on either (1) a sale of
the project pursuant to an auction process or (2) a consensual
restructuring of the secured debt.  Broker CB Richard Ellis Inc.
has been hired to conduct the sale.

The auction rules provide that a first-round sealed bid would be
required to be submitted by Aug. 24.  The broker would then have
until Sept. 5 to negotiate with the first-round bidders.  Second-
round sealed bids would be due Sept. 5.  The highest second-round
bid would be identified by Sept. 12, 2011.  The highest bid would
be submitted for approval at the confirmation hearing in October.

Wells Fargo, the holder of a $207.6 million secured debt, can bid
at the auction.  The Lender is represented by Mark Taylor, Esq.,
at Kilpatrick Townsend & Stockton LLP, and Jantra Van Roy, Esq.,
at Zeichner Ellman & Krause LLP.

The U.S. Trustee for Region 4, notified the Court that he has not
appointed an unsecured creditors' committee in the Chapter 11
cases of Stellar GT TIC LLC and VFF TIC LLC.


SUMMER VIEW: US Bank Seeks Stay Relief to Allow Property Turnover
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Secured creditor U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee for
the registered holders of Wachovia Bank Commercial Mortgage Trust,
Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2004-C14,
asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of
California to excuse a court-appointed rents and profits receiver
from turning over certain property of Debtor Summer View Sherman
Oaks, LLC.

In May 2011, the Superior Court of California, County of Los
Angeles appointed Clyde Holland of Holland Residential as a
receiver for a property located in Los Angeles County at 15353
Weddington Street, Sherman Oaks, California.

A bankruptcy court can excuse a court-appointed receiver from
turning over of a debtor "if the interests of creditors and, if
the debtor is not insolvent, of equity security holders would be
better served by permitting a custodian to continue in possession,
custody or control of that property. . . .  "

Alan D. Smith, Esq., at Perkins Coie LLP, in Los Angeles,
California -- ADSmith@perkinscoie.com -- asserts that the
interests of the Debtor's creditors would be better served through
the Receiver to retain possession of the Property for these
reasons:

   (a) It appears over $300,000 in rents was collected during the
       pre-receivership period, but not used in connection with
       the Property, not paid to the Lender as required under the
       loan documents, and not turned over to the Receiver.  Those
       rents are the Lender's cash collateral.  There has been no
       explanation for the whereabouts of the great bulk of that
       money, he points out.

   (b) The Debtor's security deposit account should have held
       approximately $68,840 but the Debtor turned over only
       $39,470 in deposits to the Receiver, with no explanation
       for the deficiency, he asserts.

   (c) The Debtor's former management company allegedly had an
       employee who was embezzling rents.  "Whatever the merits to
       those allegations, there is no indication that any
       embezzlement explains the entirety of the missing rents.
       Although the evidence available to the Lender does not
       suggest the Debtor's principals or insiders had any part in
       that misfeasance had their oversight been less
       lackadaisical they arguably could have prevented it, or
       discovered it long before they did," he states.

SUMMIT III: Schedules and Statement Expected by Sept. 9
-------------------------------------------------------

Northern District of West Virginia extended the deadline of Summit

assets and liabilities, and statements of financial affairs until

Absence of an extension, the filing deadline expires on August 26,
2011.

The Debtors said they have begun the process of assembling the
information needed to file their bankruptcy schedules and
statements of financial affairs, but require additional time to
file accurate and complete bankruptcy schedules, statement of
financial affairs and related documents.

SUNNYVALE BUSINESS: Wants Court Approval to Use Cash Collateral
---------------------------------------------------------------
Sunnyvale Business Square LLC asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for
the District of Arizona for permission to use cash collateral to
operate and reorganize its property.

The Debtor's property is a retail shopping center known as
Lakeview Village at Val Vista Lakes, located at 3611-3821 East
Baseline Road, Gilbert, Arizona.

The Debtor tells the Court that it must utilize the cash
collateral in order to continue operating its business otherwise
it will be unable to pay for maintaining, operating and insuring
its properties.  The interests of its numerous retail tenants and
creditors other than the Debtor's lender, CCMS 2005-CD1 Baseline
Road, LLC, would be severely injured.  In addition, the lender
itself would be severely prejudiced.  Both the Debtor and lender
are vitally interested in preserving the going concern value of a
strong established shopping center.

The Debtor says the Property must therefore be kept up and running
to preserve its market position and protect its tenants and
customer base.  Debtor must use the rents to continue to
operate the property in the near term until a Plan of
Reorganization can be submitted and confirmed.

The Property is financed by a Note and Deed of Trust dated May 27,
2005 in the original face amount of $13,000,000 which encumber the
Property.  The Note and Deed of trust are now owned by lender.

SYNTERRA 3020: Court Approves Ciardi as Bankruptcy Counsel
----------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania
authorized Synterra 3020 Market, L.P., to employ Ciardi Ciardi &
Astin as bankruptcy counsel.

According to the Troubled Company Reporter on Jan. 21, 2011,
Ciardi Ciardi will:

     (a) give the Debtor legal advice with respect to its powers
         and duties as debtor-in-possession;

     (b) prepare on behalf of your Applicant as Debtor necessary
         applications, answers, orders, reports and other legal
         papers; and

     (c) perform all other legal services for the Debtor which may
         be necessary herein.

Ciardi Ciardi will be paid based on the rates of its
professionals:

         Albert A. Ciardi, III                   $465
         Thomas D. Bielli                        $300
         Alex Giuliano, Paralegal                $120

Albert A. Ciardi, III, Esq., a partner at Ciardi Ciardi, assured
the Court that the firm is a "disinterested person" as that term
defined in Section 101(14) of the Bankruptcy Code.

Philadelphia-based Synterra 3020 Market, L.P., is the master
lessor of certain real property located in the City of
Philadelphia, 27th Ward, Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and commonly
known as 3020-3052 Market Street, City of Philadelphia,
Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania.  Its primary tenants are the
University of Pennsylvania, Level 3 Communications, LLC, Synterra,
Ltd., Lincoln University, and T Mobile, AT&T.

Synterra 3020 filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on
(Bankr. E.D. Pa. Case No. 11-10205) on Jan. 12, 2011.  The Debtor
estimated its assets and debts at $10 million to $50 million.


SYNTERRA 3020: Asks Court to Dismiss Chapter 11 Case
----------------------------------------------------
Synterra 3020 Market, LP, asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Eastern District of Pennsylvania to dismiss its Chapter 11 case.

On July 19, 2011, the Court approved a settlement between the
Debtor and Inland Mortgage Capital Corporation, which provided,
among other things, that the Debtor was to purchase Inland's loan
term $18,750,000 on or before July 31, 2011, or the Debtor was to
cease using cash collateral and Inland would have relief from the
Automatic Stay.

As of August 16, 2011, the Debtor has not paid Inland the funds
required by the Settlement Agreement, Thomas D. Bielli, Esq., at
Ciardi Ciardi & Astin, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania --
tbielli@ciardilaw.com -- tells the Court.  As a result, on Monday
August 1, 2011, the Debtor ceased using cash collateral.

Because of cessation of use of cash collateral combined with the
fact that the secured creditor, Inland, has relief from the
Automatic Stay and that the Debtor's assets have been transferred
or assigned to Inland, there would likely be no return to
unsecured non-priority creditors should the Debtor's bankruptcy
case be converted, Mr. Bielli says.

Mr. Bielli notes that Section 1112(b) of the Bankruptcy Code
provides that "absent unusual circumstances specifically
identified by the court that establish that the requested
conversion or dismissal is not in the best interest of creditors
and these estate, the court shall convert a case under this
chapter to a case under chapter 7 or dismiss a case under this
chapter, whichever is in the best interest of creditors and the
estate, if the movant establishes cause."  He asserts that cause
does exist for the dismissal of the case in that the Debtor no
longer has a reasonable likelihood of reorganization pursuant to
Section 1112(b)(4)(A).

THORNBURG MORTGAGE: Banks' Reply to Trustee Lawsuit Extended
------------------------------------------------------------
Bankruptcy Judge Duncan W. Keir signed off on a stipulation
revising the schedule for defendants to respond to a complaint
styled, Joel I. Sher, in his capacity as Chapter 11 Trustee for
TMST, Inc.. f/k/a Thornburg Mortgage, Inc., TMST Hedging
Strategies, Inc. f/k/a Thornburg Mortgage Hedging Strategies,
Inc., and TMST Home Loans, Inc. f/k/a Thornburg Mortgage Home
Loans, Inc., v. JPMorgan Chase Funding Inc. (as successor to Bear
Stearns Investment Products Inc.), Citigroup Global Markets
Limited, Citigroup Global Markets, Inc., Credit Suisse Securities
(USA) LLC, Credit Suisse International, RBS Securities Inc. (f/k/a
Greenwich Capital Markets Inc.), Greenwich Capital Derivatives
Inc., Royal Bank of Scotland PLC, and UBS AG (as successor to UBS
Securities LLC), Adv. Proc. No. 11-00340 (Bankr. D. Md.).  Each
Defendant will, on or before Sept. 12, 2011, file an answer, move,
or otherwise respond to the Amended Complaint; the Trustee will,
on or before 90 days following the filing of the last Initial
Response by the Defendants, file an opposition or other permitted
responses; and the Defendants will have until, but no more than,
45 days after the filing of the last Trustee Response to file a
reply.  A copy of the Aug. 31 stipulation is available at
http://is.gd/XpG56Xfrom Leagle.com.

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter on May 3, 2011, the
TMST Trustee sued Wall Street banks for $2.2 billion, alleging
they engaged in series of "collusive" and "predatory" schemes that
eventually drove Thornburg into bankruptcy.  The defendants
include:

     * J.P. Morgan Chase & Co.,
     * Citigroup Inc.,
     * Goldman Sachs Group Inc.,
     * Bank of America,
     * Countrywide Home Loans,
     * subsidiaries of Barclays PLC,
     * Credit Suisse Group,
     * Royal Bank of Scotland Group PLC, and
     * UBS AG

In the suit against BofA and Countrywide, the Trustee contends
Countrywide misrepresented the nature of hundreds of home loans
securitized and sold to Thornburg in 2006; and that Bank of
America, now Countrywide's parent, has "engaged in an elaborate
corporate shell game" intended to shed Countrywide's liabilities.
The Trustee is asking the bankruptcy judge overseeing the
Thornburg case to force the bank to repurchase the loans.

TRIBECA LOFTS: Plan Order Modifies Orix Loan Agreement
------------------------------------------------------
The Bankruptcy Court confirmed Tribeca Lofts LP's plan of
reorganization filed Aug. 1, 2011.  In doing so, Judge Isgur
modified the Debtor's loan agreements with Orix to restrict the
lender from pursuing a guaranty against Randall Davis, president
of West Clay Partners, Inc., Tribeca's general partner.

"Although the Court is not issuing an injunction, the limited
restrictions have some of the characteristics of injunctive
relief," Judge Marvin Isgur said in his ruling.

The Court held that Tribeca will suffer irreparable injury to its
ability to perform under the plan if Orix is allowed to pursue Mr.
Davis as guarantor, because Tribeca will be forced to immediately
refinance its indebtedness to Orix at a tremendous cost.
Moreover, the Court said pursuit of the guaranty (i) will not
assist Orix economically; and (ii) in the unique situation
presented to the Court, is antithetical to the prepayment penalty
in Orix's note.

The Court also said if Orix is successful in pursuing Mr. Davis on
the guaranty, it would trigger the Debtor's obligation to pay a
"yield maintenance premium" to Orix.  Orix's proof of claim listed
this amount as approximately $350,000. This is an amount that
would be due in addition to all principal, interest, and fees.
Judge Isgur said it is unreasonable to burden Tribeca with a
$350,000 penalty to protect Orix against prepayment, when by its
guaranty suit Orix insists on receiving the prepayment.  When Orix
is entirely protected by full performance of Tribeca as primary
obligor, and the evidence shows no reason to doubt continued full
performance, Orix should not be able to impose such a penalty on
Tribeca via its actions against the guarantor.

Tribeca in 2004 borrowed $2,475,000 and secured the loan with a
first lien Deed of Trust on its building in Houston, Texas.  Orix
holds the note and Deed of Trust.  The Deed of Trust limits the
use of the building to multifamily occupancy. Nevertheless, Orix
and its predecessors have always been aware of the fact that the
building was occupied as live/work space. Neither Orix nor its
predecessors enforced the multifamily restriction in the Deed of
Trust.

When the building was renovated in 1992-1994, the city of Houston
did not have a permitting designation that fully encompassed the
intended use of the building. Accordingly, the building was
permitted for multifamily use. In 2010, Houston determined that
the building was being utilized for a purpose that was
inconsistent with its permit. Because much of the space was
utilized for commercial purposes, Houston required changes to the
available parking at the building, changes to the electrical
system, and other changes commensurate with City code
requirements.

Tribeca is controlled by Mr. Davis, a real estate developer in
Houston.

Tribeca Lofts LP owns and operates an historic structure in
Houston, Texas.  Tribeca filed for bankruptcy (Bankr. S.D. Tex.

presides over the case.  Joel P. Kay, Esq. -- jkay@hwallp.com --

It scheduled $3,510,759 in assets and $2,312,227 in debts.  The
petition was signed by Randall Davis, president of West Clay
Partners Inc., the Debtor's general partner.

UNION STREET: BB&T V. Fidelity et al. Survives Motion to Dismiss
----------------------------------------------------------------
District Judge Kevin H. Sharp denied the request of Fidelity
National Title Insurance Company to dismiss for lack of subject
matter jurisdiction the lawsuit, BRANCH BANKING AND TRUST COMPANY,
v. FIDELITY NATIONAL TITLE INSURANCE COMPANY, 1ST TRUST TITLE,
INC., and DELAINA THOMPSON, No. 3:11-cv-00301 (M.D. Tenn.).

The dispute involves Fidelity's indemnification obligation to
Branch Banking with respect to a 2008 loan for $18.7 million
provided by Branch Banking to 315 Union Street Holdings, LLC and
Union Street Plaza Operations, LLC, for renovation and development
of real property located at 301 and 315 Union Street in Nashville.

Banking initiated a receivership action in state court.
Prudential Mortgage Capital Company LLC appeared in the
receivership action to assert priority of its lien.  Fidelity did
not provide Branch Banking with counsel in the receivership action
and has never acknowledged an indemnification obligation under the
title policy.

UNITED STATES: Post Office Won't Make $5.5BB Payment Due Sept. 30
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Steven Greenhouse, writing for The New York Times, reports that
The United States Postal Service is so low on cash that it will
not be able to make a $5.5 billion payment due Sept. 30 to finance
retirees' future health care, and may have to shut down entirely
this winter unless Congress takes emergency action to stabilize
its finances.

According to NY Times, the Senate Homeland Security and
Governmental Affairs Committee will hold a hearing on the agency's
predicament on Tuesday.

"Our situation is extremely serious," the postmaster general,
Patrick R. Donahoe, said in an interview, according to NY Times.
"If Congress doesn't act, we will default."

NY Times relates that Mr. Donahoe has been pushing a series of
painful cost-cutting measures in recent weeks to erase the
agency's deficit, which will reach $9.2 billion this fiscal year.
They include eliminating Saturday mail delivery, closing up to
3,700 postal locations and laying off 120,000 workers -- nearly
one-fifth of the agency's work force -- despite a no-layoffs
clause in the unions' contracts.

NY Times relates the post office's problems stem from one hard
reality: it is being squeezed on both revenue and costs.  The
Internet revolution has led to people and businesses sending far
less conventional mail.  Moreover, decades of contractual promises
made to unionized workers, including no-layoff clauses, are
increasing the post office's costs.  Labor represents 80% of the
agency's expenses, compared with 53% at United Parcel Service and
32% at FedEx, its two biggest private competitors.  Postal workers
also receive more generous health benefits than most other federal
employees.

According to NY Times, sometime early next year, the agency will
run out of money to pay its employees and gas up its trucks,
officials warn, forcing it to stop delivering the roughly three
billion pieces of mail it handles weekly.


VAN CHASE: U.S. Trustee Wants Case Dismissed or Converted to Ch. 7
------------------------------------------------------------------
Charles F. McVay, United States Trustee, through counsel, asks the
U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Colorado, to dismiss the
Chapter 11 case of Van Chase, LLC, or convert the Debtor's case to
one under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code.

The UST tells the Court that Debtor's monthly operating reports
have not been provided or filed for February, March, April and May
of 2011.  Debtor is also delinquent in UST quarterly fees for the
first quarter of 2011.  Also, on May 16,  2011, the Court entered
an order allowing Eastern Savings Bank relief from stay against
the Debtor's primary asset.

The Debtor says it has no objection to the dismissal of its
Chapter 11 case but objects to the conversion of its case to
Chapter 7.

Debtor tells the Court that since it already found that the Debtor
has few unsecured creditors, it would appear that converting the
case to Chapter 7 and administering the assets for the creditors
would be an undue burden on the Debtor and the Bankruptcy Court.

Dismissing the case, the Debtor relates, will permit the remaining
creditors including Eastern Savings Bank, to seek redress against
the Debtor in other forums such as the District Court in and for
the County of Pitkin and State of Colorado where a case is already
pending between Debtor and Eastern's subsidiary to whom title to
Debtor's real property was transferred at the foreclosure sale
(Case No. 11 CV 179).  According to the Debtor, there is no reason
to waste any more of the Bankruptcy Court's time and resources
when the creditors have other recourse against the Debtor in the
State or Federal District Courts.

                          About Van Chase

Aspen, Colorado-based Van Chase, LLC, is engaged in the business
of developing and selling luxury residences.  The Debtor filed for
Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection (Bankr. D. Colo. Case No. 10-
31555) on Aug. 24, 2010.  John D. LaSalle, Esq., at Wright &
LaSalle, in Aspen, Colorado, assists the Debtor in its
restructuring effort.  According to its schedules, the Debtor
disclosed $26,528,200 in total assets and $15,150,964 in total

                         Bankruptcy Warning

In April 2007, the Company completed the sale of $120 million of
2007 Notes.  In September 2009, pursuant to privately negotiated
exchange agreements with the Company, certain holders of the 2007
Notes exchanged approximately $30.5 million in aggregate principal
amount of 2007 Notes for approximately $13.7 million in aggregate
principal amount of the Company's 2009 Notes.

The holders of the 2007 and 2009 Notes have the right to require
the Company to purchase the Notes for cash on each of April 1,
2012, April 1, 2017, and April 1, 2022.  Assuming the holders of
the Notes exercise their put option in 2012, based on current cash
resources and 2011 operating plan, the Company's existing working
capital will not be sufficient to meet the cash requirements to
fund the retirement of the Notes, and planned operating expenses,
capital expenditures and working capital requirements after such
exercise without additional sources of cash.  If the Company is
unable to re-finance the Notes or raise additional capital, it
will need to defer, reduce or eliminate significant planned
expenditures, restructure or significantly curtail operations,
issue equity in exchange for the Notes at substantial dilution to
current stockholders, file for bankruptcy, or cease operations.

VIASPACE Chief Executive Dr. Carl Kukkonen commented: "We are very

the beginning of the year.  Our financial performance during the
second quarter improved significantly which allows us to continue
to expand and develop our Giant King Grass bioenergy activities.
We are making progress in our grass business which we believe will
play an important role in the future of global biomass electricity
and biofuels."

"As was previously announced, VIASPACE and General Biofuels are
working toward a joint venture to grow a large plantation of Giant
King Grass in the Dominican Republic that would be co-located with
a 400,000 ton per year pellet mill.  The pellets are slated for
the European power plant market.  In addition, I will be
presenting at the Pellets Trade Conference in Korea on September
7-8, 2011.  Today the global pellet market is mostly wood pellets
made from sawdust and other wood waste.  The world supply of wood
waste is limited and new pellet sources from agricultural products
such as Giant King Grass are becoming attractive."

Kukkonen returned from Asia on August 12.  He was at the framed
art factory and the Giant King Grass plantation in China.  He also
met with potential customers and partners in Thailand, Singapore

VIASYSTEMS GROUP: S&P Raises CCR to 'BB-' on Improved Leverage
--------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Rating Services raised its corporate credit
rating on St. Louis-based Viasystems Group Inc. to 'BB-' from
'B+', reflecting improving profitability and conservative credit
metrics. The rating outlook is stable.

"At the same time, we raised the issue-level rating on the
company's senior unsecured notes to 'BB-' from 'B+' (same as the
corporate credit rating). The '4' recovery rating on the senior
unsecured notes remain unchanged," S&P said.

"Our stable outlook reflects our expectation that credit measures
will remain commensurate with a significant financial risk profile
over the near term," S&P related.

"The rating reflects our expectation that recent sales gains will
be sustained and that profitability will support debt leverage in
line with our significant financial risk profile," said Standard &
Poor's credit analyst William Backus, "despite ongoing commodity
and wage pressures and highly competitive industry conditions."
There is capacity at the higher rating for leverage up to the
high-3x area, providing some capacity for expected weaker earnings
or acquisitions.

VITRO SAB: BofA to Transfer $5MM DIP and Sale Carve Out Funds
-------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas
authorized Bank of America, N.A., to transfer the carve out funds
to Vitro Asset Corp., et al., pursuant to the final DIP order and
sale order.

The Debtors and BofA sought to transfer the carve out funds from
BofA to the Debtors.

The Debtors related that on May 26, 2011, the Court authorized
BofA to set aside up to $5,000,000 for the professional fee carve
out.  The specific amount of the carve out was dependent upon the
final sales price at the auction, but was capped at $5,000,000.

On June 13, 2011, the Court directed the Debtors to remit
$5,000,000 to BofA for the carve out, and on June 17, the Debtors
remitted $5,000,000 to BofA for the professional fee carve out.

In consultation with the Official Unsecured Creditors' Committee,
the Debtors and BofA, determined that the Debtors must efficiently
administer the carve out funds.

The Court ordered that BofA will remit to the Debtors an amount
equal to the carve out funds, via wire transfer of immediately
available funds.

The Debtors will deposit the carve out funds into the estate
administrative account at JPMorgan Chase Bank, account ending in
0021; and upon the remittance, BofA's obligations with respect to
the carve out will be fully satisfied and discharged.

                       About Vitro SAB

Headquartered in Monterrey, Mexico, Vitro, S.A.B. de C.V. (BMV:
VITROA; NYSE: VTO), through its two subsidiaries, Vitro Envases
Norteamerica, SA de C.V. and Vimexico, S.A. de C.V., is a global
glass producer, serving the construction and automotive glass
markets and glass containers needs of the food, beverage, wine,
liquor, cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries.

Vitro is the largest manufacturer of glass containers and flat
glass in Mexico, with consolidated net sales in 2009 of MXN23,991
million (US$1.837 billion).

Vitro defaulted on its debt in 2009, and sought to restructure
around US$1.5 billion in debt, including US$1.2 billion in notes.
Vitro launched an offer to buy back or swap US$1.2 billion in debt
from bondholders.  The tender offer would be consummated with a
bankruptcy filing in Mexico and Chapter 15 filing in the United
States.  Vitro said noteholders would recover as much as 73% by
exchanging existing debt for cash, new debt or convertible bonds.

           Concurso Mercantil & Chapter 15 Proceedings

Vitro SAB on Dec. 13, 2010, filed its voluntary petition for a
pre-packaged Concurso Plan in the Federal District Court for Civil
and Labor Matters for the State of Nuevo Leon, commencing its
voluntary concurso mercantil proceedings -- the Mexican equivalent
of a prepackaged Chapter 11 reorganization.  Vitro SAB also
commenced parallel proceedings under Chapter 15 of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case No. 10-16619) in Manhattan
on Dec. 13, 2010, to seek U.S. recognition and deference to its
bankruptcy proceedings in Mexico.

Early in January 2011, the Mexican Court dismissed the Concurso
Mercantil proceedings.  The judge said Vitro couldn't push through
a plan to buy back or swap US$1.2 billion in debt from bondholders
based on the vote of US$1.9 billion of intercompany debt when
third-party creditors were opposed.  Vitro as a result dismissed
the first Chapter 15 petition following the ruling by the Mexican
court.

On April 12, 2011, an appellate court in Mexico reinstated the
reorganization.  Accordingly, Vitro SAB on April 14 re-filed a
petition for recognition of its Mexican reorganization in U.S.
Bankruptcy Court in Manhattan (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case No. 11-11754).

In the present Chapter 15 case, the Debtor seeks to block any
creditor suits in the U.S. pending the reorganization in Mexico.

                     Chapter 11 Proceedings

A group of noteholders opposed the exchange -- namely Knighthead
Master Fund, L.P., Lord Abbett Bond-Debenture Fund, Inc., Davidson
Kempner Distressed Opportunities Fund LP, and Brookville Horizons
Fund, L.P.  Together, they held US$75 million, or approximately 6%
of the outstanding bond debt.  The Noteholder group commenced
involuntary bankruptcy cases under Chapter 11 of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code against Vitro Asset Corp. (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case
No. 10-47470) and 15 other affiliates on Nov. 17, 2010.

Vitro engaged Susman Godfrey, L.L.P. as U.S. special litigation
counsel to analyze the potential rights that Vitro may exercise in
the United States against the ad hoc group of dissident
bondholders and its advisors.

A larger group of noteholders, known as the Ad Hoc Group of Vitro
Noteholders -- comprised of holders, or investment advisors to
holders, which represent approximately US$650 million of the
Senior Notes due 2012, 2013 and 2017 issued by Vitro -- was not
among the Chapter 11 petitioners, although the group has expressed
concerns over the exchange offer.  The group says the exchange
offer exposes Noteholders who consent to potential adverse
consequences that have not been disclosed by Vitro.  The group is
represented by John Cunningham, Esq., and Richard Kebrdle, Esq. at
White & Case LLP.

The U.S. affiliates subject to the involuntary petitions are Vitro
Chemicals, Fibers & Mining, LLC (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 10-
47472); Vitro America, LLC (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 10-47473);

(Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 10-47484); and Vitro Packaging, LLC
(Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 10-47485).

A bankruptcy judge in Fort Worth, Texas, denied involuntary
Chapter 11 petitions filed against four U.S. subsidiaries.  On
April 6, 2011, Vitro SAB agreed to put Vitro units -- Vitro
America LLC and three other U.S. subsidiaries -- that were subject
to the involuntary petitions into voluntary Chapter 11.  The Texas
Court on April 21 denied involuntary petitions against the eight
U.S. subsidiaries that didn't consent to being in Chapter 11.

Kurtzman Carson Consultants is the claims and notice agent to
Vitro America, et al.  Alvarez & Marsal North America LLC, is the
Debtors' operations and financial advisor.

The official committee of unsecured creditors appointed in the
Chapter 11 cases of Vitro America, et al., has selected Sarah Link
Schultz, Esq., at Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP, in Dallas,
Texas, and Michael S. Stamer, Esq., Abid Qureshi, Esq., and Alexis
Freeman, Esq., at Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP, in New York,

advisor to the Committee.


VITRO SAB: U.S. Units Want Name Changes OK'd in Relation to Sale
----------------------------------------------------------------
Vitro Asset Corp., et al., ask the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Northern District of Texas to approve the amended case caption
reflecting corporate name changes of certain Debtors.

The Debtors stated that in an auction, American Glass Enterprises
LLC's bid of $55 million far exceeded the purchase price proposed
by the stalking horse bidder, with over $15.5 million of
additional value available to the estate for distribution to
creditors than originally proposed by the stalking horse bidder
(approximately $9 million in additional cash and $6 million in
assumed liabilities).  Subsequent to the auction, the Debtors and
American Glass executed an asset purchase agreement.

Pursuant to Article 8.4 of the American Glass Asset Purchase
Agreement, the Debtors related that they are required to change
the names of Debtors Vitro America, Super Sky Products, and Super
Sky International.

The name changes are:

         Previous Name                   New Name
         -------------                   --------
         Vitro America, LLC              Mukki LLC
         Super Sky Products, Inc.        Tayo Inc.
         Super Sky International, Inc.   BarleySammy Inc.

Aside from the American Glass sale, the Court previously granted
the sale motion of Vitro Asset Corp., et al., with respect to
certain of their assets to Mark S. and Ann M. Blackburn for
$2,350,000.  The Standard Offer, Agreement and Escrow Instructions
for Purchase of Real Estate, dated March 3, 2011, subsequently
amended on April 1 and 27, 2011, between the Debtor Vitro America,
LLC and the Blackburns to acquire the Acquired Assets is approved.

Mercantil proceedings.  The judge said Vitro couldn't push through
a plan to buy back or swap US$1.2 billion in debt from bondholders
based on the vote of US$1.9 billion of intercompany debt when
third-party creditors were opposed.  Vitro as a result dismissed
the first Chapter 15 petition following the ruling by the Mexican
court.

On April 12, 2011, an appellate court in Mexico reinstated the
reorganization.  Accordingly, Vitro SAB on April 14 re-filed a
petition for recognition of its Mexican reorganization in U.S.
Bankruptcy Court in Manhattan (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case No. 11-11754).

In the present Chapter 15 case, the Debtor seeks to block any
creditor suits in the U.S. pending the reorganization in Mexico.

                     Chapter 11 Proceedings

A group of noteholders opposed the exchange -- namely Knighthead
Master Fund, L.P., Lord Abbett Bond-Debenture Fund, Inc., Davidson
Kempner Distressed Opportunities Fund LP, and Brookville Horizons
Fund, L.P.  Together, they held US$75 million, or approximately 6%
of the outstanding bond debt.  The Noteholder group commenced
involuntary bankruptcy cases under Chapter 11 of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code against Vitro Asset Corp. (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case
No. 10-47470) and 15 other affiliates on Nov. 17, 2010.

Vitro engaged Susman Godfrey, L.L.P. as U.S. special litigation
counsel to analyze the potential rights that Vitro may exercise in
the United States against the ad hoc group of dissident
bondholders and its advisors.

A larger group of noteholders, known as the Ad Hoc Group of Vitro
Noteholders -- comprised of holders, or investment advisors to
holders, which represent approximately US$650 million of the
Senior Notes due 2012, 2013 and 2017 issued by Vitro -- was not
among the Chapter 11 petitioners, although the group has expressed
concerns over the exchange offer.  The group says the exchange
offer exposes Noteholders who consent to potential adverse
consequences that have not been disclosed by Vitro.  The group is
represented by John Cunningham, Esq., and Richard Kebrdle, Esq. at
White & Case LLP.

The U.S. affiliates subject to the involuntary petitions are Vitro
Chemicals, Fibers & Mining, LLC (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 10-
47472); Vitro America, LLC (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 10-47473);
Troper Services, Inc. (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 10-47474); Super

Inc. (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 10-47483); V-MX Holdings, LLC
(Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 10-47484); and Vitro Packaging, LLC
(Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 10-47485).

A bankruptcy judge in Fort Worth, Texas, denied involuntary
Chapter 11 petitions filed against four U.S. subsidiaries.  On
April 6, 2011, Vitro SAB agreed to put Vitro units -- Vitro
America LLC and three other U.S. subsidiaries -- that were subject
to the involuntary petitions into voluntary Chapter 11.  The Texas
Court on April 21 denied involuntary petitions against the eight
U.S. subsidiaries that didn't consent to being in Chapter 11.

Kurtzman Carson Consultants is the claims and notice agent to
Vitro America, et al.  Alvarez & Marsal North America LLC, is the
Debtors' operations and financial advisor.

The official committee of unsecured creditors appointed in the
Chapter 11 cases of Vitro America, et al., has selected Sarah Link

VITRO SAB: Bond Trustee Sues Units to Recover $1.35BB in Notes
--------------------------------------------------------------
David McLaughlin at Bloomberg News reports that Vitro, S.A.B. de
C.V.'s units were sued by a bondholder trustee seeking to recover
US$1.35 billion owed under notes issued by the company.

Vitro SAB and its subsidiaries are engaged in a "a multi-year
scheme" to avoid paying bondholders, Wilmington Trust NA, the
trustee under two series of notes issued by Vitro and guaranteed
by the units, said in a complaint filed in New York state court in
Manhattan, according to Bloomberg.

Company officials "will continue to maintain our openness to
dialogue" with creditors, Roberto Riva Palacio, a Vitro spokesman,
said in an e-mail obtained by the news agency.

The case is Wilmington Trust NA v. Vitro Automotriz, 652303-2011,
New York State Supreme Court (Manhattan).

                         About Vitro SAB

Headquartered in Monterrey, Mexico, Vitro, S.A.B. de C.V. (BMV:
VITROA; NYSE: VTO), through its two subsidiaries, Vitro Envases
Norteamerica, SA de C.V. and Vimexico, S.A. de C.V., is the
largest manufacturer of glass containers and flat glass in Mexico,
with consolidated net sales in 2009 of MXN23,991 million (US$1.837
billion).

Vitro defaulted on its debt in 2009 and sought to restructure
around US$1.5 billion in debt, including US$1.2 billion in notes.
Vitro launched an offer to buy back or swap US$1.2 billion in debt
from bondholders.  The tender offer would be consummated with a
bankruptcy filing in Mexico and Chapter 15 filing in the United
States.  Vitro said noteholders would recover as much as 73% by
exchanging existing debt for cash, new debt or convertible bonds.

           Concurso Mercantil & Chapter 15 Proceedings

Vitro SAB on Dec. 13, 2010, filed its voluntary petition for a
pre-packaged Concurso Plan in the Federal District Court for Civil
and Labor Matters for the State of Nuevo Leon, commencing its
voluntary concurso mercantil proceedings -- the Mexican equivalent
of a prepackaged Chapter 11 reorganization.  Vitro SAB also
commenced parallel proceedings under Chapter 15 of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case No. 10-16619) in Manhattan
on Dec. 13, 2010, to seek U.S. recognition and deference to its
bankruptcy proceedings in Mexico.

Early in January 2011, the Mexican Court dismissed the Concurso
Mercantil proceedings.  The judge said Vitro couldn't push through
a plan to buy back or swap US$1.2 billion in debt from bondholders
based on the vote of US$1.9 billion of intercompany debt when
third-party creditors were opposed.  Vitro as a result dismissed

On June 29, 2011, Vitro Packaging de Mexico S.A. de C.V. commenced
a voluntary judicial reorganization proceeding under the Ley de
Concursos Mercantiles before the Federal District Court for Civil
and Labor Matters for the State of Nuevo Leon, the United Mexican
States.  On June 30, 2011, Vitro Packaging filed a chapter 15
petition (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 11-34224).

                     Chapter 11 Proceedings

A group of noteholders, namely Knighthead Master Fund, L.P., Lord
Abbett Bond-Debenture Fund, Inc., Davidson Kempner Distressed
Opportunities Fund LP, and Brookville Horizons Fund, L.P., opposed
the exchange.  Together, they held US$75 million, or approximately
6% of the outstanding bond debt.  The Noteholder group commenced
involuntary bankruptcy cases under Chapter 11 of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code against Vitro Asset Corp. (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case
No. 10-47470) and 15 other affiliates on Nov. 17, 2010.

Vitro engaged Susman Godfrey, L.L.P. as U.S. special litigation

VWE GROUP: Noteholders Denied Leave to Amend Suit v. D&Os
---------------------------------------------------------
David Cohain D.D.S., et al., v. Laura Klimley, et al.; and D. Kent
Sissel, et al., v. Laura Klimley, et al., Nos. 08 Civ. 5047 and 09
Civ. 4527 (S.D.N.Y.), arise from Plaintiffs' purchase of debt
instruments from VWE Group, Inc., a greeting card company, before
VWE filed a bankruptcy petition on June 1, 2004.  Plaintiffs
allege that they have not recovered any money on the Notes, that
the Notes were issued as part of an illegal Ponzi scheme, and that
the Defendants were complicit in that scheme.  Defendant Laura
Klimley served as Vice President and as a director of VWE, and
Defendant John Palmero served as an officer, director, and
controller of VWE.  Plaintiffs originally brought claims for
violations of the federal securities laws and the RICO statute, as
well as for fraud, fraudulent conveyance, waste of corporate
assets, self-dealing and deepening insolvency, civil conspiracy,
and breach of fiduciary duty.  The Sissel plaintiffs also brought
a claim for violation of Iowa's Blue Sky Law.  In a Memorandum
Opinion and Order dated Sept. 20, 2010, the Court granted the
Defendants' motions to dismiss the Sissel and Cohain plaintiffs'
claims in their entirety.  The Plaintiffs in both actions seek
leave to amend their complaints to add several new claims arising
under state law: aiding and abetting fraud, aiding and abetting
larceny, conversion, aiding and abetting conversion, and money had
and received.

In an Aug. 31, 2011 Memorandum Opinion and Order, District Judge
Paul G. Gardephe denied the Plaintiffs' requests. The proposed
amended complaints were not submitted to the Court until Oct. 14,
2010.  Given that the proposed amended complaints contain no new
factual allegations, it is not clear -- and the Plaintiffs have
made no attempt to explain -- why the new causes of action were
not asserted in the original complaints.  Even if the new causes
of action -- premised on conduct that took place more than seven
years ago -- were meritorious (which they are
not), the Court would not grant leave to amend, the given
Plaintiffs' unexplained delay in asserting the new claims.

The Notes held by the Plaintiffs -- which were offered throughout
VWE's existence -- had "terms from 90 days to 5 years, interim
maturity periods of between 1 and 3 years, and interest rates from
10 to 23%."  However, the Plaintiffs allege that VWE never paid
the amount owing under the Notes and that at the time of the
bankruptcy filing, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of
the Notes was more than $26 million.  In October 2007, Alicia
Eimicke, Laura Klimley's sister and VWE's former president, was
indicted on 35 counts of theft, securities fraud and racketeering
in connection with the Company's Notes issuance program.  Ms.
Eimicke pled guilty to those charges on March 28, 2008, allegedly
admitting that the Notes issued by the Company were part of an
"illegal [P]onzi scheme."

Although the Defendants were not charged in the criminal
proceeding, the Plaintiffs allege that they -- in their capacities
as director and officer, respectively -- promoted the issuance of
the Notes despite their knowledge of VWE's deepening insolvency.
The Plaintiffs also claim to have purchased Notes in reliance on
the Defendants' false representations of VWE's financial health,
and allege that VWE "instituted and maintained a policy of not
disseminating" financial information to purchasers of the Notes.
The Plaintiffs further allege that "there is little or no
possibility that the Company will successfully emerge from its
Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing or generate any meaningful sum from
the sale of its assets for repayment of Plaintiffs."

A copy of the Court's decision is available at http://is.gd/1y4VSp
from Leagle.com.

In 1958, Victor Eimicke formed VWE Group, Inc.  Yonkers, N.Y.-
based VWE sold materials designed to assist employers in "the
hiring, firing and motivation of employees."  VWE later began
producing and selling greeting cards, a business which ultimately
accounted for the majority of its revenues.  In December 2003, VWE
sold the greeting card business.  The company filed for chapter 11
protection on June 1, 2004 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case No. 04-20308).
Joseph O'Neil, Jr., Esq., at Reed Smith LLP, represented the
Debtor.


WASHINGTON LOOP: Court Denies Motion to Use ROBI's Cash Collateral
------------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Jeffery P. Hopkins of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Middle District of Florida has denied the motion of Washington
Loop, LLC, to use cash collateral of ROBI1956, LLC.

The Debtor advised the Court that it was seeking to use Liberty
Bank's cash collateral rather than ROBI Bank's cash collateral.
As a consequence, the Court sustained ROBI's objection and
disallowed the Debtor's use of ROBI's cash collateral.

Judge Hopkins rules that the Debtor can file a new motion to use
Liberty Bank's cash collateral.  Any new motion for authority to
use cash collateral, however, must specifically identify and be
served on the entity whose cash collateral the Debtor seeks to
use.

Schedule F debts are unliquidated.  These schedules were filed no
less than two weeks after the dismissal of the prior Chapter 11
case, and only six weeks after the Debtor filed its Schedule F in
that case.

creditors totaling claims of $1,953,354.  In that case, the
Debtor, under penalty of perjury listed all Schedule F debts and
non-contingent, liquidated, and undisputed.

The Debtor now declares, under penalty of perjury, that all
Schedule F debts are unliquidated.  These schedules were filed no
less than two weeks after the dismissal of the prior Chapter 11
case, and only six weeks after the Debtor filed its Schedule F in
that case.


WASHINGTON LOOP: Files Chapter 11 Plan & Disclosure Statement
-------------------------------------------------------------
Washington Loop, LLC, filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Middle District of Florida, Ft. Myers Division, a Chapter 11 plan
and an explanatory disclosure statement on August 18, 2011.

The Debtor's Plan is a reorganization plan accomplished through
the continuation of its primary business: the mining of an
approximately 750-acre property in Punta Gorda, Florida.  The
Debtor seeks to accomplish payment under the Plan primarily from
the proceeds of the sale of mining materials and or the refinance
of the Washington Loop Property.

The Debtor seeks to accomplish payments under the Plan by
restructuring notes secured by real property of the estate held by
ROBBIE1956 LLC, Mirror Lakes V, LLC, and Mike Treworgy, a holder
of beneficial interest in the second deed of trust encumbering the
Debtor's Mirror Lakes Property, by restructuring notes secured by
personal property of the estate held by Credential Leasing Corp.,
and Wells Fargo Equip Finance.  The secured creditors of the
estate will be paid the present value of their claim at a market
interest rate over an 84-month period through net income generated
from the mining operation and through a sale or refinance of the
Washington Loop Property.  The Effective Date of the proposed Plan
is December 15, 2011.  The first payment due under the plan is
January 15, 2012.

The Distributions under the Plan will be made from cash flow from
net income resultant from the mining operation, refinance proceeds
and and Net Sale Proceeds.

The Plan will be implemented through these means:

   * The managing member of Debtor, Lovina Lehr, will provide
     oversight and assistance in the operation of the Debtor's
     business and day-to-day management decisions.  Lovina Lehr
     will work to expand the mining operation on the Washington
     Loop Property and to obtain replacement financing providing
     funds for the payment of creditors.

   * In the event a super priority loan to acquire mining
     equipment and expand the mining operation is approved by the
     court, Lovina Lehr will oversee the uses of the funds to
     expand the mining operation.  In the event the court does not
     approve the Super Priority Loan, Lovina Lehr will continue
     the mining operation and expand the mining operations as cash
     flow allows.

   * The proceeds from net income resultant from the mining
     operation and or the sale/refinance of the all or part of
     Washington Loop Property by the Debtor will be used to fund
     the payments to both Secured and Unsecured Creditors provided
     for under the Plan. It is anticipated that there will be
     sufficient funds from the mining operation to pay all Allowed
     Secured and Allowed Unsecured Claims as follows:

        -- Unsecured priority creditor Florida Department of
           Revenue will be paid in full the amount of $3,186 plus
           accrued interest and penalties as payment in full of
           100% of its claim on the Effective Date.

        -- Secured creditors ROBBIE, Mirror Lakes V, Mike Treworgy
           and Wells Fargo Equip Finance will be paid in full on
           or before 84th month following the Effective Date.

        -- Allowed Class 8 General Unsecured Claims will receive
           100% of their allowed claim on or before the 84th month
           following the Effective Date.

WASHINGTON MUTUAL: Creditors File Brief to Support Plan
-------------------------------------------------------
BankruptcyData.com reports that Washington Mutual's official
committee of unsecured creditors filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court a brief in support of confirmation of the Company's Modified
Sixth Amended Plan of Reorganization with respect to insider
trading and equitable conduct issues.

According to BData, the brief asserts, "Creditors of the Debtors
have waited nearly three years for any recovery on their billions
of dollars of claims. The Debtors' Modified Plan addresses each
and every concern raised by the opinion denying confirmation of
the Debtors' Sixth Amended Plan.  Nevertheless, the Equity
Committee and certain other parties all of whom are parties or
representatives of parties that are, unfortunately, unlikely to
receive any recovery under the Modified Plan, are in the final
phase of a last-ditch attempt to derail confirmation of the
Modified Plan by any means possible.  Such attempted means have
included using a huge portion of the seven days of hearings on
confirmation to attempt to adduce evidence of insider trading or
improper conduct by the Settlement Noteholders.  This brief is
submitted for two purposes.  First, to set forth the belief of the
Creditors' Committee that the Modified Plan embodies an excellent
resolution of this lengthy and difficult case, including the
implementation of the Global Settlement Agreement, and should be
confirmed and implemented as expeditiously as possible,
irrespective of the allegations of the objecting parties.  And,
second, the Creditors' Committee has seen and heard nothing during
seven days of confirmation hearings, reams of exhibits and hours
of pre-hearing depositions to support any of the allegations of
the objecting parties.  To the contrary, the Creditors' Committee
believes that the evidence exonerates the Settlement Noteholders
and provides overwhelming support for confirmation of the Modified
Plan."

WASHINGTON MUTUAL: Creditors Object Bid to Tap Legal Expert
-----------------------------------------------------------
Pete Brush at Bankruptcy Law360 reports that hedge funds and other
unsecured creditors of Washington Mutual Inc. objected Thursday to
the hiring of a legal expert to represent restive shareholders of
the bankrupt financial giant, amid a larger fight over whether
shareholders will be able to sue them.

The objection, lodged in Delaware bankruptcy court by the
unsecured creditors committee, claims shareholders' bid to hire
University of San Diego securities law expert Frank Partnoy as a
litigation consultant is a ploy to prematurely win approval to
target hedge funds including Aurelius Capital Management,
according to Law360.

-------------------------------------------------------------

involuntary ]chapter 11 bankruptcy petition against the company
requested the bankruptcy court to remove Waste2Energy's existing
management and replace them with a chapter 11 trustee.

The motion, which was accompanied by several declarations, begins
with the assertion that "[t]he actions of W2E's current management
present a sorry tale of incompetence, avarice, and betrayal of
W2E, its creditors, and its investors."  In the ensuing pages, the
motion makes extensive claims about the company's operations and
management, which it calls "neither prudent nor reasonable."

WATER STREET: Bontkes Seek Dismissal of Chapter 11 Case
-------------------------------------------------------
Richard Bontke and Nathan Bontke, creditors and parties-in-
interest in the Chapter 11 case of Water Street Development
Partners, L.P., ask the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern
District of Texas to immediately dismiss the "single asset real
estate case involving a debtor with no ongoing business to
reorganize, no income, no employees, virtually no creditors and no
prospects for reorganization.

The Bontkes note that the Debtor's sole asset is an undivided 50%
fee interest in 81 acres of undeveloped land located at the
intersection of Highway 287 and Broad Street in Mansfield, Texas,
with the remaining 50% interest owned by the Bontkes.  The Debtor
and the Bontkes hold the Property as tenants-in-common.

The Bontkes contend that the Debtor filed the case in bad faith in
the attempt to prevent the expiration of its option under that
certain Option Contract to purchase the Bontkes' 50% interest in
the Property and to prevent the Bontkes from exercising their own
option under the Option Contract to purchase the Debtor's 50%
interest.

The Bontkes assert that the Debtor no longer possesses any right
under the Option Contract to purchase the Bontkes' interest in the
Property and that nothing in the Bankruptcy Code preserves the
Debtor's option at this point.

Continuation of this bankruptcy case will not further any
legitimate goal of the Bankruptcy Code, but will serve only to
unfairly preclude the Bontkes from exercising their bargained for
rights under the Option Contract and subject them to potential
financial loss, the Bontkes tell the Court.

A hearing to consider the Bontkes' motion to dismiss is set for
Sept. 19, 2011.

WATERSCAPE RESORT: Confirmation Order Amended on Tax Exemption
--------------------------------------------------------------
The Hon. Stuart M. Bernstein of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of New York amended its order dated July 21,
2011, confirming Waterscape Resort LLC's Plan of Reorganization.

In response to the Debtor's request for an order amended or
clarifying confirmation order provision relating to tax exemption,
the Court amended its order by deleting paragraph 16 of the order
and replacing it by the new paragraph 16, which states:

   16. In accordance with section 1146(a) of the Bankruptcy Code,
   the transfer or sale of assets and property of the Debtor
   pursuant to the Plan, including without limitation the transfer
   of assets and property of the Debtor to Waterscape Resort II,
   the transfer of the Membership Interest to the Buyer pursuant
   to the Hotel Sale Contract, the grant of a lien to Chartis,
   Inc. or the grant of a lien to secure the Class 5 Condominium
   Reserve Amount as provided in the Plan, shall not be taxed
   under any law imposing a stamp tax or similar tax, including
   but not limited to New York State and New York City Mortgage
   Taxes and New York State and New York City Real Property
   Transfer Taxes.

In all other respects, the Confirmation Order will remain in full
force and effect.

The Court said that the New York State Department of Taxation and
Finance and the New York City Department of Finance do not object
to the relief requested by the Debtor.

As reported on Troubled Company Reporter on July 25, 2011, the
Court approved its reorganization plan after negotiating a way to
resolve disputes with the hotel's builders.

The Debtor's reorganization plan calls for repaying much of the
company's debt with proceeds from the $128 million sale of the
hotel section of the development.

                      About Waterscape Resort

Waterscape Resort LLC, aka Cassa NY Hotel And Residences, is a
Delaware limited liability company formed on or about Jan. 24,
2005.  The principal office of the Debtor is at 15 West 34th
Street, New York, New York 10001.  On July 19, 2005, Waterscape
acquired the property, consisting of the three contiguous
buildings at 66, 68 and 70 West 45th Street in Manhattan, for the
sum of $20 million to develop the property into a 45-storey
condominium project including a luxury hotel, a restaurant and
luxury residential apartments.  The purchase was financed with a
$17 million acquisition loan and mortgage from U.S. Bank
Association.

Construction of the hotel and residential units, given the name
Cassa NY Hotel and Residences, commenced in July 2007.  By the end
of September 2010, the hotel and residential units were completed.
The Debtor generates its revenue from guests who stay at the hotel
and in the Debtor's residential condominium units, and from sales
of unsold residential condominium units.  The Debtor's hotel and
rental business has produced gross revenues of approximately
$17 million to $18 million on an annual basis, and by the end of
September 2010, the Debtor had sold five residential apartment
units for a total of approximately $12,710,340.

The Debtor's Cassa NY Hotel and Residences features 165 hotel
rooms, and above the hotel units, 57 residences.  The Debtor's
restaurant will occupy the first level below ground, but will be
visible from the ground floor hotel lobby.  The Debtor's
restaurant is not yet open for business.

The Debtor has for several months been embroiled in litigation
with numerous contractors and subcontractors who have asserted
alleged mechanics lien claims against the Property totaling
approximately $20 million.

As of the Petition Date, the Debtor had outstanding approximately
$134.4 million of secured loan principal obligations under credit
facilities with US Bank and USB Capital Resources, Inc.  The debt
is secured by liens upon all of the assets of the Debtor,
including mortgages on the Debtor's real property, together with
liens on all rents, proceeds and cash of the Debtor, pledges of
member interests in Waterscape, and guarantees by Waterscape
members and other third-party grantors.  The Debtor's secured debt
was incurred under three separate agreements for: (i) an
acquisition and project loan; (ii) a construction loan; and (iii)
a mezzanine loan; each of which was made in connection with the
acquisition or development of the Debtor's property.

Over the last several months, the Debtor engaged in extensive
negotiations with the Secured Lenders regarding the parameters of
a comprehensive restructuring.  The Debtor also engaged in
extensive marketing efforts and negotiations to sell its hotel
assets to a non-insider buyer.  The restructuring discussions
between the Debtor and the Secured Lenders reached an impasse, and
on March 21, 2011, UBS, the junior of the two Secured Lenders,
filed a foreclosure action against the Debtor in the Supreme Court
of the State of New York, County of New York.

The Debtor then filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection (Bankr.
S.D.N.Y. Case No. 11-11593) on April 5, 2011.  Brett D. Goodman,
Esq., and Lee William Stremba, Esq., at Troutman Sanders LLP
represent the Debtor as Bankruptcy Counsel.  Holland & Knight LLP
serves as its special litigation counsel.  The Debtor disclosed
$214,285,027 in assets and $158,756,481 in liabilities as of the
Chapter 11 filing.


WATERSCAPE RESORT: Can Access Cash Collateral Until Oct. 13
-----------------------------------------------------------
On Aug. 18, 2011, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern
District of New York entered its fourth agreed interim order
authorizing Waterscape Resort LLC to use cash collateral of U.S.
Bank National Association and USB Capital Resources, Inc., until
the date of the next cash collateral hearing scheduled for
Oct. 13, 2011, at 10:00 a.m.

The Debtor owes U.S. Bank a total principal balance of
$126,192,848.63, and USB Capital Resources a total principal
balance of $8,045,557.04, as of the Petition Date.

The use of cash collateral will be for the sole and exclusive
purpose of paying the actual and necessary expenses incurred on or
after the Petition Date in the ordinary course of the operation
and maintenance of the the Debtor's high rise, mixed use
condominium building known as Cassa Hotel and Residences located
at 66-70 West 45th Street, in New York City (the "Asset"),

                     About Waterscape Resort

Waterscape Resort LLC, aka Cassa NY Hotel And Residences, is a
Delaware limited liability company formed on or about Jan. 24,
2005.  The principal office of the Debtor is at 15 West 34th
Street, New York, New York 10001.  On July 19, 2005, Waterscape
acquired the property, consisting of the three contiguous
buildings at 66, 68 and 70 West 45th Street in Manhattan, for the
sum of $20 million to develop the property into a 45-storey
condominium project including a luxury hotel, a restaurant and
luxury residential apartments.  The purchase was financed with a
$17 million acquisition loan and mortgage from U.S. Bank
Association.

Construction of the hotel and residential units, given the name
Cassa NY Hotel and Residences, commenced in July 2007.  By the end
of September 2010, the hotel and residential units were completed.
The Debtor generates its revenue from guests who stay at the hotel
and in the Debtor's residential condominium units, and from sales
of unsold residential condominium units.  The Debtor's hotel and
rental business has produced gross revenues of approximately $17
million to $18 million on an annual basis, and by the end of
September 2010, the Debtor had sold five residential apartment
units for a total of approximately $12,710,340.

The Debtor's Cassa NY Hotel and Residences features 165 hotel
rooms, and above the hotel units, 57 residences.  The Debtor's
restaurant will occupy the first level below ground, but will be
visible from the ground floor hotel lobby.  The Debtor's
restaurant is not yet open for business.

The Debtor has for several months been embroiled in litigation
with numerous contractors and subcontractors who have asserted
alleged mechanics lien claims against the Property totaling
approximately $20 million.

As of the Petition Date, the Debtor had outstanding approximately
$134.4 million of secured loan principal obligations under credit
facilities with US Bank and USB Capital Resources, Inc.  The debt
is secured by liens upon all of the assets of the Debtor,
including mortgages on the Debtor's real property, together with
liens on all rents, proceeds and cash of the Debtor, pledges of
member interests in Waterscape, and guarantees by Waterscape
members and other third-party grantors.  The Debtor's secured debt
was incurred under three separate agreements for: (i) an
acquisition and project loan; (ii) a construction loan; and (iii)
a mezzanine loan; each of which was made in connection with the
acquisition or development of the Debtor's property.

Over the last several months, the Debtor engaged in extensive
negotiations with the Secured Lenders regarding the parameters of
a comprehensive restructuring.  The Debtor also engaged in
extensive marketing efforts and negotiations to sell its hotel
assets to a non-insider buyer.  The restructuring discussions
between the Debtor and the Secured Lenders reached an impasse, and
on March 21, 2011, UBS, the junior of the two Secured Lenders,
filed a foreclosure action against the Debtor in the Supreme Court
of the State of New York, County of New York.

The Debtor then filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection (Bankr.
S.D.N.Y. Case No. 11-11593) on April 5, 2011.  Brett D. Goodman,
Esq., and Lee William Stremba, Esq., at Troutman Sanders LLP
represent the Debtor as Bankruptcy Counsel.  Holland & Knight LLP
serves as its special litigation counsel.  The Debtor disclosed
$214,285,027 in assets and $158,756,481 in liabilities as of the
Chapter 11 filing.

A 3-member Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors has been
appointed in the Debtor's Chapter 11 case.

As reported in the TCR on July 25, 2011, U.S. Bankruptcy Judge
Stuart Bernstein confirmed Waterscape Resort LLC's reorganization
plan on July 22, 2011, which calls for repaying much of the
company's debt with proceeds from the $128 million sale of the
hotel section of the development.  The Plan was filed on May 6,
2011.

The Plan will become effective upon the sale of the Debtor's
hotel, which the Debtor estimates will occur around the end of
September, 2011.


WAVE SYSTEMS: Incurs $1.8 Million Net Loss in Second Quarter
------------------------------------------------------------
Wave Systems Corp. filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission its quarterly report on Form 10-Q reporting a net loss
of $1.82 million on $8.09 million of total net revenues for the
three months ended June 30, 2011, compared with a net loss of
$966,874 on $6.44 million of total net revenues for the same
period a year ago.

The Company also reported a net loss of $4.08 million on $15.57
million of total net revenues for the six months ended June 30,
2011, compared with a net loss of $1.73 million on $12.31 million
of total net revenues for the same period during the prior year.

The Company's balance sheet at June 30, 2011, showed $16.47
million in total assets, $13.07 million in total liabilities and
$3.39 million in total stockholders' equity.

Due to the early stage nature of its market category, Wave is
unable to predict with a high enough level of certainty whether
enough revenue will be generated to fund its cash flow
requirements for the twelve-months ending June 30, 2012.  Given
the uncertainty with respect to Wave's revenue forecast for the
twelve-months ending June 30, 2012, Wave may be required to raise
additional capital through either equity or debt financing in
order to adequately fund its capital requirements for the twelve-
months ending June 30, 2012.  As of June 30, 2011, the Company had
approximately $10.9 million of cash on hand and positive working
capital of approximately $3.2 million.  Considering the Company's
current cash balance and Wave's projected operating cash
requirements, the Company projects that it will have enough liquid
assets to continue operating through June 30, 2012.  However, due
to the Company's current cash position, the Compan's capital needs
over the next twelve months and beyond, the fact that the Company
may require additional financing and uncertainty as to whether the
Company will achieve its sales forecast for its products and
services, substantial doubt exists with respect to the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern.

WIDEOPENWEST: Moody's Says Asset Purchase No Impact on Ratings
--------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service said that WideOpenWest's purchase of $55
million of Broadstripe Communications' assets in Michigan, which
are currently in Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization, will have
no impact on the company's ratings, including its B2 Corporate
Family Rating and B2 Probability of Default Rating as well as the
B1 first lien senior secured bank debt rating (LGD3) and the Caa1
second lien bank debt rating (LGD6). The rating outlook remains
stable. Moody's expects that the company will fund the purchase,
if approved by the regulators and the bankruptcy courts, with
available cash on hand and expansion of existing bank facilities.

The principal methodology used in rating WideOpenWest was Moody's
Global Cable Television Industry Methodology, published in July
2009 and available on www.moodys.com in the Rating Methodologies
sub-directory under the Research & Ratings tab. Other
methodologies and factors that may have been considered in the
process of rating this issuer can also be found in the Rating
Methodologies sub-directory on Moody's website.

Headquartered in Eaglewood, Colorado, WideOpenWest Finance, LLC is
a competitive broadband provider offering cable TV, high speed
Internet services and telephony in Illinois, Michigan, Ohio and
Indiana. Its revenue was approximately $598million as of LTM
6/30/2011. The company is privately owned by Avista Capital
Partners.


WILLIAM LYON: Moody's Downgrades Corp. Family Rating to 'Ca'
------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service lowered the ratings of William Lyon
Homes, including its corporate family and probability of default
ratings to Ca from Caa2 and the ratings on its public senior
unsecured notes to C from Caa3. The rating outlook is negative.

These rating actions were taken:

Corporate family rating lowered to Ca from Caa2

Probability of default rating lowered to Ca from Caa2

$67 million of 7.625% senior unsecured notes due 12/15/2012
lowered to C (LGD5, 76%) from Caa3 (LGD5, 76%)

$139 million of 10.75% senior unsecured notes due 4/01/2013
lowered to C (LGD5, 76%) from Caa3 (LGD5, 76%)

$78 million of 7.5% senior unsecured notes due 2/15/2014 lowered
to C (LGD5, 76%) from Caa3 (LGD5, 76%)

RATINGS RATIONALE

These rating actions result from the company's recently missed
interest payment of $2.92 million on its 7.5% senior unsecured
notes due 2/15/2014. Moody's will attempt to determine the
company's reasons for missing the coupon payment in light of its
apparent availability of funds to make the payment and its plans
to address what Moody's considers to be an untenable capital
structure.

On August 17, 2011, William Lyon Homes filed an 8K report with the
SEC indicating that it had missed a semi-annual interest payment
of $2,920,012.50 that was due on August 15, 2011 on its 7.5%
senior unsecured notes due 2014 (the Notes). The company currently
plans to make use of the thirty-day grace period provided by the
indenture governing the Notes (the "Indenture"). Non-payment of
interest on the scheduled due date is not an event of default
under the Indenture unless the interest payment is not made within
such thirty-day grace period. If William Lyon Homes does not make
the interest payment by September 14, 2011, however, the trustee
for the Notes (or holders of at least 25% of the outstanding
principal amount of the Notes) would be permitted under the terms
of the Indenture to accelerate the company's obligation to repay
the Notes by providing written notice of acceleration to William
Lyon Homes, at which point an event of default under these Notes
and the company's other senior unsecured notes will have occurred.

The principal methodology used in rating William Lyon Homes was
the Global Homebuilding Industry Methodology published in March
2009. Other methodologies used include Loss Given Default for
Speculative-Grade Non-Financial Companies in the U.S., Canada and
EMEA published in June 2009.

Begun in 1956 and headquartered in Newport Beach, California,
William Lyon Homes designs, builds, and sells single family
detached and attached homes in California, Arizona and Nevada.
Consolidated revenue and net income including charges for the
twelve months ended June 30, 2011 were approximately $267 million
and $(146) million, respectively.


WILLIAM B JOHNSON: Places Business Under Chapter 11 Protection
--------------------------------------------------------------
Katy Stech, writing for Dow Jones' Daily Bankruptcy Review,
reports that an entity controlled by Atlanta businessman William
B. Johnson, former owner of the Ritz-Carlton Hotel chain, filed a
Chapter 11 petition in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Wilmington, Del.,
on Friday.

The bankrupt entity, according to DBR, is on the hook for a $15
million loan that Mr. Johnson used to buy a corporate jet, a 1983
Gulfstream Aerospace G-1159A GIII.  The jet, DBR relates, was set
to be sold at a foreclosure auction on Wednesday.

DBR relates the bankruptcy filing halted a lawsuit filed by Amegy
Bank with the U.S. District Court in Houston, which claimed that
Mr. Johnson is wrongly holding money belonging to the bank and
accused Mr. Johnson of fraud for "knowingly and recklessly" making
false statements.   The bank moved to recover the collateral that
Mr. Johnson had pledged to borrow the money.

DBR recounts the bank said in court documents that Mr. Johnson
bought the jet in early 2008, intending to fly it to complete a
development in the Bahamas called Orchid Bay. In exchange, Mr.
Johnson agreed to put up his 825,427 units of partnership interest
in Host Hotels & Resorts LP -- a chunk of shares worth $9.7
million in late 2009.

Mr. Johnson began missing payment deadlines within months but
managed to dodge consequences with excuses, complaining it would
trigger an adverse tax consequence or promising the closure of a
big transaction "that would save everything," the bank said,
according to the report.

DBR says the loan finally matured in May.  On Aug. 15, the bank
finally got its hands on the necessary procedural information to
cash in on Mr. Johnson's pledged Host Hotels ownership.

------------------------------------------------------
Pete Brush at Bankruptcy Law360 reports that the Fifth Circuit
affirmed en banc Thursday a district court's ruling that a

FDIC.  The loan portfolio is from 48 failed bank receiverships and

The FDIC, in its receivership capacity, will retain a 60% interest

"In conducting our due diligence, we were very impressed with the
credit quality of the portfolio and the relative strength of the
collateral," added James Sherrill, Managing Director and Portfolio
Manager at MountainView.

service this portfolio," said Kevin Kanouff, CEO and President of

For the second consecutive year, approximately one-third of Wendel
Rosen partners were named Super Lawyers or Rising Stars,
representing the firm's bankruptcy, business litigation,
construction litigation, environmental, estate planning and real
estate practices.

Also following suit from the 2010 edition, real estate litigation
partner Charles Hansen was again named to the prestigious Top 100
List, Super Lawyers' highest distinction.

This is the eighth Northern California Super Lawyers inclusion for
six Wendel Rosen attorneys, each of whom has been honored every
year since the inaugural list in 2004: Michael Cooper, Michael
Dean, Elizabeth Engh, Charles Hansen, Howard Lind and Deanna Lyon.

Wendel Rosen attorneys for banrkutpcy and creditor/debtor rights
that are included in the 2011 Northern California Super Lawyers
list are Mark S. Bostick, Penn A. Butler, and Michael D. Cooper.

Monday's edition of the TCR delivers a list of indicative prices
for bond issues that reportedly trade well below par.  Prices are
obtained by TCR editors from a variety of outside sources during
the prior week we think are reliable.  Those sources may not,
however, be complete or accurate.  The Monday Bond Pricing table
is compiled on the Friday prior to publication.  Prices reported
are not intended to reflect actual trades.  Prices for actual
trades are probably different.  Our objective is to share
information, not make markets in publicly traded securities.
Nothing in the TCR constitutes an offer or solicitation to buy or
sell any security of any kind.  It is likely that some entity
affiliated with a TCR editor holds some position in the issuers"
public debt and equity securities about which we report.

Each Tuesday edition of the TCR contains a list of companies with
insolvent balance sheets whose shares trade higher than $3 per
share in public markets.  At first glance, this list may look like
the definitive compilation of stocks that are ideal to sell short.
Don't be fooled.  Assets, for example, reported at historical cost
net of depreciation may understate the true value of a firm's
assets.  A company may establish reserves on its balance sheet for
liabilities that may never materialize.  The prices at which
equity securities trade in public market are determined by more
than a balance sheet solvency test.

A list of Meetings, Conferences and Seminars appears in each
Wednesday's edition of the TCR.  Submissions about insolvency-
related conferences are encouraged.  Send announcements to
conferences@bankrupt.com/

On Thursdays, the TCR delivers a list of recently filed
Chapter 11 cases involving less than $1,000,000 in assets and
liabilities delivered to nation's bankruptcy courts.  The list
includes links to freely downloadable images of these small-dollar
petitions in Acrobat PDF format.

Each Friday's edition of the TCR includes a review about a book of
interest to troubled company professionals.  All titles are
available at your local bookstore or through Amazon.com.  Go to
http://www.bankrupt.com/books/to order any title today.

Monthly Operating Reports are summarized in every Saturday edition
of the TCR.

The Sunday TCR delivers securitization rating news from the week
then-ending.

For copies of court documents filed in the District of Delaware,
please contact Vito at Parcels, Inc., at 302-658-9911.  For
bankruptcy documents filed in cases pending outside the District
of Delaware, contact Ken Troubh at Nationwide Research &
Consulting at 207/791-2852.
