ADVANCED MEDICAL: Contact Lens Solutions Recall May Hold Expansion
------------------------------------------------------------------
Results from an inquiry by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention may deter plans of Advanced Medical Optics Inc.'s
CEO James Mazzo for expansion, according to Julie Creswell of the
New York Times.  A day after expressing interest to buy rival
Bausch and Lomb Inc., AMO received information from CDC that its
Complete(R) MoisturePlus(TM) contact lens solutions caused eye
infections.  AMO immediately and voluntarily recalled its contact
lens solutions.

CDC data was made available to AMO showing that it had completed
interviews with 46 patients who had developed Acanthamoeba
keratitis, from Acanthamoeba, a naturally occurring water-borne
organism which can contribute to serious corneal infections, since
January 2005.  A total of 39 of these patients were soft contact
lens wearers, 21 of whom reported using Complete(R)
MoisturePlus(TM) products.  The CDC estimates a risk of at least
seven times greater for those who used Complete(R)
MoisturePLUS(TM) solution versus those who did not.

While AMO continues to work with the CDC and the U.S. Food and
Drug Administration to further assess the data, it is acting with
an abundance of caution to voluntarily recall Complete(R)
MoisturePlus(TM) from the market.  There is no evidence to suggest
that the voluntary recall is related to a product contamination
issue and this does not impact any of AMO's other contact lens
care products, including our family of hydrogen peroxide
disinfecting solutions.  As patient safety is paramount to AMO,
the company is taking decisive action to stop shipments, recall
product from the marketplace, and encourage consumers to
discontinue the use of AMO Complete(R) MoisturePlus(TM) until
further information is available. Given the potential seriousness
of the reported Acanthamoeba infections, AMO is working in close
partnership with the CDC, the FDA and others to make sure
consumers are aware of the need for proper contact lens
disinfection and proper lens handling.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on Nov. 23, 2006, AMO
anticipated a financial impact associated with its voluntarily
recall of certain eye care product lots and the related
manufacturing capacity constraints caused by a production-line
issue at its manufacturing plant in China.

AMO expected the recall to reduce revenue for the
remainder of 2006 and 2007 by a total of $40 million to
$45 million.  This is due to expected product returns, supply
shortages and temporary lost market share, primarily in Japan and
Asia Pacific where the vast majority of products produced at the
China facility are shipped.

Consumers who believe they are in possession of the recalled
product should discontinue use immediately and call 1-888-899-
9183.  The company is currently contacting retailers, customers
and distributors regarding return and replacement instructions.
Reply cards and mailing slips are being provided for return of
product.  Retailers may also call 1-888-899-9183 for more
information.

AEROFLEX INC: Accepts $1.1 Billion Veritas Capital Merger Deal
--------------------------------------------------------------

merger agreement with affiliates of General Atlantic and Francisco
Partners and entered into a new merger agreement with subsidiaries
of Veritas in a transaction valued at approximately $1.1 billion.

The special meeting of Aeroflex stockholders that had been
scheduled for May 30, 2007, to consider the merger agreement with
affiliates of General Atlantic and Francisco Partners will not be
held.   A new special meeting of Aeroflex stockholders will be
called once Aeroflex has determined when it will be in a position
to mail to stockholders a new proxy statement concerning the
Veritas merger agreement.  The Aeroflex Board of Directors has
specified June 4, 2007 as the record date for the purpose of
determining the stockholders who will be entitled to receive
notice of, and to vote at, the new special meeting.   The closing
of the transaction with Veritas Capital is subject to the approval

as Aeroflex's financial advisors in connection with the
transaction. Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP served as

lenders can expect full recovery of principal in the event of
payment default.  S&P assigned its 'B' bank loan rating and '2'

ALLIANCE ATLANTIS: Obtains CRTC Approvals On Plan of Arrangement
----------------------------------------------------------------
Alliance Atlantis Communications Inc. and CanWest Global
Communications Corp. had obtained approvals from the Canadian
Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission in respect of
the Plan of Arrangement pursuant to which AA Acquisition Corp.
will acquire all of the outstanding shares of Alliance Atlantis
for $53.00 cash per share.

Alliance Atlantis owns -- directly or indirectly -- the securities
of certain entities which are regulated by the CRTC.  In
connection with the completion of the Plan of Arrangement, those
securities will be deposited with a trustee pending the CRTC's
decision regarding the acquisition of those regulated entities by
AA Acquisition.  The CRTC has now approved the trust arrangements
with respect to those regulated entities, including the
appointment of Mr. James Macdonald to act as trustee.  Approval of
the trust arrangements by the CRTC is a condition of completion of
the Plan of Arrangement, and this condition has now been
satisfied.

After completion of the Plan of Arrangement, it is intended that
there will be a reorganization of the various business units and
assets of Alliance Atlantis.  The CRTC has now also approved those
steps in the reorganization which includes the entities that are
regulated by the CRTC being placed in the approved trust.
Approval of the reorganization by the CRTC is also a condition
of the Arrangement, and this condition has now been satisfied.

While no other CRTC approvals are required as conditions of the
Plan of Arrangement, the acquisition of the regulated entities by
AA Acquisition remains subject to the CRTC's approval.

"We are very pleased that these approvals have been obtained which
satisfy certain conditions pertaining to the acquisition," said
Leonard Asper, President and Chief Executive Officer of CanWest.
"This is another important step in the transaction process.  All
material regulatory approvals required in connection with the
broadcasting operations that are part of the Plan of Arrangement
have now been obtained."

"Jim Macdonald is a highly experienced and well-respected member

AMDL INC: Incurs $1,385,406 Net Loss in Quarter Ended March 31
--------------------------------------------------------------
AMDL Inc. had net revenues of $1,424,179 and a net loss of
$1,385,406 for the three months ended March 31, 2007.  For the
three months ended March 31, 2006, it had net revenues of $15,375
and a net loss of $911,913.

The company had total assets of $18,883,814, total liabilities of
$7,589,461, and total stockholders' deficit of $11,294,353 as of
March 31, 2007.  Accumulated deficit at March 31, 2007, was
$35,920,549.

Total assets at March 31, 2007, decreased $356,799 from
$19,240,613 at Dec. 31, 2006, due primarily to decreases in cash,
accounts receivable and inventories offset by increases in prepaid
expenses and other current assets.  The company had a negative
working capital with total current assets of $4,482,209 and total
current liabilities of $5,982,820 at March 31, 2007.

The company's total outstanding indebtedness increased to
$7,589,461 at March 31, 2007, as compared to $6,577,457 at
Dec. 31, 2006.  The primary reason for the increase is due to
increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses and taxes
payable.  From Jan. 1, 2007, to March 31, 2007, the company's cash
and cash equivalents decreased by about $1,116,000, primarily due
to working capital requirements of JPI and general and
administrative expenses incurred by AMDL.  Cash usage continues to
exceed cash generation.

As of May 11, 2007, cash on hand was about $3,000,000 and cash is
being depleted at the rate of about $200,000 per month.  This
monthly amount does not include any expenditures related to
further development or attempts to license the company's
combination immunogene therapy technology, as no significant
expenditures on the CIT technology are anticipated other than the
legal fees incurred in furtherance of patent protection for the
CIT technology.

BIOMET INC: Special Committee Says Proxy Statements "Not Accurate"
------------------------------------------------------------------
Biomet Inc. disclosed in a regulatory filing with the Securities
and Exchange Commission that a special committee assigned to
conduct an independent investigation of Biomet's stock option
grants for the period from March 1996 through May 2006 has
submitted a final report to the company's Board of Directors.

As disclosed in the company's Dec. 18, 2006 current report filing,
an analyst report has been published suggesting that certain
historical grants of stock options by Biomet took place on dates
where Biomet's stock price was trading at relatively low prices
and the filing of two shareholder derivative lawsuits alleging
improper "backdating" of stock options.

                    Special Committee's Findings

Based upon the review of an extensive collection of physical and
electronic documents, interviews of more than two dozen
individuals, and analysis of approximately 17,000 grants to
purchase approximately 17,000,000 Biomet common shares on over 500
different grant dates over the 11-year period from March 1996
through May 2006, the Special Committee made these findings:

   * The company's written stock option plans were treated by
     Company management, and the stock option committee, as
     formalities concerning the manner in which individual stock
     option grants were to be approved, resulting in a failure to
     abide by the terms of the plans;

   * The Company failed to receive appropriate legal or accounting
     advice from its former General Counsel and Chief Financial
     Officer related to its stock option program and, as a result,
     legal and accounting rules were not followed;

   * The Company failed to put in place and implement internal
     controls to manage its stock option program, including by
     failing to devote sufficient resources to the administration
     of its stock option program;

   * The Company failed to prepare and maintain appropriate books
     and records documenting the administration of its stock
     option program, specifically with regard to the approval of
     individual stock option grants;

   * Most stock options issued by Biomet were dated on dates other
     than the date of grant of those options, as that date was
     defined by the stock option plans; and

   * The Company engaged in purposeful "opportunistic" dating
     (and, therefore, pricing) of stock options.

As a result, the Special Committee said certain of the Company's
proxy statements related to the grant of stock options,
particularly to executive officers and non-employee directors,
were not accurate.

The Special Committee also reported that members of senior
management were aware of the practice of dating options on a date
other than the date on which final action regarding the option
occurred, and that certain members of senior management, namely
the Company's Chief Financial Officer and General Counsel during
the period, were or should have been aware of certain accounting
and legal ramifications, respectively, of issuing an option with
an exercise price lower than the fair market value on the date of
issuance.

The Special Committee also concluded that, based upon the
information gathered and reviewed by the Special Committee, the
misdating and mispricing of stock option awards was driven by a
desire to make the options more valuable to the employees who
received the awards and not to enrich those who managed the stock
option program, though the Company's practice also did inure to
the benefit of those who managed the stock option program.

Based on its investigation, and on its review of the plaintiffs'
claims in the derivative litigation, the Special Committee
concludes that pursuit of the claims made in the Biomet derivative
litigation is not in the best interests of the Company at this
time.

The Special Committee's conclusion is based on review and
consideration of these factors:

   -- Biomet has taken, and will take, substantial remedial steps:
      as of the date of this report, the Company already has
      corrected the administration of its stock option plans,
      installed a new Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial
      Officer and General Counsel and secured promises from
      certain individuals to repay the Company any unjust
      enrichment they received as a result of the misdating of
      their options;

   -- The damages claims in the derivative litigation are
      uncertain: Indiana law allows the pursuit of both money
      damages and equitable relief based on the claims made in the
      derivative suits.

   -- The biggest single component of the damages claims are
      damages based on potential additional compensation expense.
      That claim is necessarily ephemeral, however.  Any
      additional compensation expense based on Biomet's
      administration of its stock option program is, at its core,
      a "non-cash" event.

   -- A damages theory based on recovery from defendants of a non-
      cash expense related to stock options that did not,
      literally, cost Biomet money would present a case of first
      impression -certainly in Indiana and perhaps anywhere in the
      country.  The novelty of a non-cash damages theory presents
      a substantial legal impediment to any damages award.

   -- Any attempt to recover damages from defendants based on the
      theory that the company would have received additional cash
      from the holders of those options upon exercise would be
      difficult to establish due to causation and evidentiary
      issues.

   -- Pursuit of the claims in the derivative litigation would be
      cost prohibitive: given the legal novelty and evidentiary
      issues related to the damages theories that underlay the
      derivative suit claims, it would entail the review and
      analysis of the hundreds of thousands of electronic and
      hard-copy documents, the deposition of scores of witnesses,
      including option recipients of the more than 17,000
      individual stock option grants over the investigated period,
      briefing legal issues of first impression and funding
      development and substantiation by expert witnesses of a
      viable damages model would cost millions of dollars;

   -- Pursuit of the claims in the derivative litigation would
      constitute a business distraction and would be de-motivating
      to employees: the fact of litigation challenging what is
      broadly perceived within Biomet as an important benefit and
      incentive provided to employees, including hourly staff,
      would likely have a substantial, de-motivating impact on
      those employees and draw dozens of Biomet employees away
      from their work for the Company;

   -- Biomet could be required to pay for both sides of any
      litigation: consistent with the Company's Articles of
      Incorporation and Bylaws, which allow the Company to advance
      litigation expenses to former and current officers,
      directors, and employees made party to any derivative
      proceeding by reason of being an officer, director or
      employee, individual non-employee directors and most
      officers would fairly argue that they were entitled to
      indemnification;

   -- The pending sale of Biomet undermines the prudence of
      pursuing the litigation: case-law in Indiana has generally
      required in this regard that a shareholder maintain an
      equity interest in the corporation throughout any derivative
      lawsuit and since a person who is no longer a shareholder in
      a company loses even any derivative interest in the well-
      being and benefit of that company, it would be imprudent and
      unfair for current shareholders to drive a major
      expense/risk for the Company, which ultimately will be born
      by the new owners post-sale; and

   -- If the transaction does not close, Biomet will continue to
      operate as a business, charged with generating value for its
      shareholders: the Company's resources (including money, time
      and corporate focus) would be better applied to that end,
      and not on pursuit of claims asserted in the derivative
      actions.

Taken together, the Special Committee noted that those factors
weigh against pursuit of the claims made in the derivative suits.
This is true even putting aside the question of whether, as a
technical matter, the named defendants in those suits might
prevail on the limitations period and other defenses the
defendants have raised to date.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on May 28, 2007,
Moody's Investors Service assigned a (P)B2 Corporate Family Rating
to Biomet Inc.  The rating agency also assigned provisional
ratings to proposed bank credit facilities and notes to be used in
a leveraged transaction in which a private equity consortium,
consisting of the Blackstone Group, Goldman Sachs Capital
Partners, Kohlberg Kravis Roberts and TPG will purchase Biomet for

a net loss of $3,191,686 for the three months ended March 31,
2006.  The decrease in the net loss of $2,369,543 before the
cumulative effect of an accounting change is primarily due to a
decrease of $1,553,667 in costs related to financial instrument
downward market price adjustments, along with a decrease of
$133,950 in financing expenses and a decrease in indirect
operating expenses of $278,390, which more than offset an increase

expenses of $109,301 and an increase in revenue of $518,806 from
operations.

Revenues from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2007
were $4,158,826, compared with $3,640,020 for the three months
ended March 31, 2006.  The $518,806 increase in revenue, which
equates to a 14.25% increase, was partially due to the direct
trucking revenue derived from new local business as well as the
addition of the General Order Warehouse business at the JFK
facility, which Cargo Connection started in June 2006.

COSTA ENERGY: Posts $1.35 Million Net Loss in Qtr. Ended March 31
-----------------------------------------------------------------
COSTA Energy Inc. reported a net loss of $1.35 million on $466,472
of net revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, compared to
a net loss of $452,838 on net revenues of $405,931 for the same
prior year period.

The company said its net loss is primarily due to a ceiling test
impairment of $1.08 million as a result of the lack of economic
production at Macoun, in the southeast Saskatchewan province of
Canada.  COSTA had a deficit of $8.12 million and a working
capital deficiency of $2.75 million -- including $883,000
principal amount of subordinated debentures -- at the end of the
first quarter of 2007.  The company is currently in default on its
banking covenants and continues to discuss these financial
challenges with its bank.

The company has reduced its G&A, restricted its capital program
and is looking at a combination of property sales and/or other
financings to address these issues.

                          2007 Activity

The company's gas production and revenue, was reduced in the first
quarter by processing restrictions at Alderson while a new
pipeline was built to alternate facilities.  A Cardium oil well at
Pembina has been refraced and has been successful in increasing
production.  Further testing is required to determine if five
offsetting wells can be economically refraced.

The company has drilled a horizontal well at Macoun.  After the
initial production tests, a workover has been proposed
to attempt to reduce the water and increase the oil production.

                          2007 Outlook

For 2007, the company has planned a cautious capital program of
drilling and recompletions.  Three infill shallow gas wells at
Alderson and a shallow Colony gas well north of Edmonton are
planned in the third quarter.  The company will evaluate the sale
of fully developed properties, and the sale or farm-out of
properties that are not consistent with the company's current
conservative risk profile.

weeks ended May 5, 2007, compared to the 13 weeks ended April 29,

$1 billion in the prior year quarter.  Comparable store sales
increased 15.3% during the first quarter, also beating previously

R. Richard Fontaine, GameStop's chairman and chief executive
officer, stated, "Our first quarter results were driven by the
strong growth of next generation hardware despite both Nintendo
products, the Wii and DS Lite, being in short supply throughout
the quarter.  Our business is benefiting from unmatched platform
expansion.  For much of the quarter, seven different platforms
were represented among our top 25 best sellers. Not only was this
unprecedented, but there is every indication that the Wii and DS
Lite titles are attracting a new audience of gamers, while the
allure of genre breakthrough titles like Guitar Hero II are
expanding the audience for video game product.

"The quarter also reflected strong operational control and
efficiencies. Our operating margins increased by 100 basis points
even in the face of lower gross margins due to the very strong
sale of lower margin hardware. SG&A expenses decreased by 260
basis points due to the excellent expense leveraging of our
increasing sales, continued distribution efficiencies as a result
of our synergies from the EB Games merger, and an improved system
of in-store scheduling.

"I am also happy to announce that during the first quarter
GameStop was added to the Fortune 500 list of largest U.S.
corporations," concluded Fontaine.

The top selling video games during the quarter were Nintendo's
POKEMON DIAMOND and PEARL, Sony's GOD OF WAR II, Activision's
GUITAR HERO II, Microsoft's CRACKDOWN, and Ubisoft's GHOST RECON:

GENERAL MOTORS: Ups Convertible Securities Offering to $1.3 Bil.
----------------------------------------------------------------
General Motors has priced its convertible securities offering.
The size of the offering was increased to $1.3 billion from
$1.1 billion due to a favorable response from the market.   In
connection with the offering, GM also has granted the underwriters
an over-allotment option to purchase up to $195 million aggregate
principal amount of additional notes.

Interest on the notes will be paid semiannually on June 1 and
Dec. 1 of each year at a rate of 1.50%  per year.  Upon the
occurrence of certain events, the notes will be convertible by
holders based on an initial conversion rate of approximately
0.68 shares of common stock per $25 principal amount of notes,
which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of
approximately $36.57 per share.  This initial conversion price
represents a premium of approximately 20% relative to the last
reported sale price on May 24, 2007,  of GM's common stock of
$30.47.

In connection with this offering, GM entered into capped call
transactions with affiliates of the underwriters of the offering.
The capped call transactions are expected to reduce the potential
dilution upon conversion of the notes and effectively increase the
conversion premium to 50% higher than last reported sale price of
GM's common stock.  This is equivalent to an effective conversion
price of $45.71 per share.

The net proceeds to GM from this offering will be approximately
$1.2 billion including the cost of the capped call transaction but
excluding any proceeds attributable to the underwriters' possible
exercise of their over-allotment option.

The notes mature on June 1, 2009, and the offering is expected to
close on May 31, 2007, subject to customary closing conditions.
The joint-book running managers for the offering are Citi,
Deutsche Bank Securities and Goldman, Sachs & Co.

GM has filed a registration statement, including a prospectus,
with the SEC for the offering.

The prospectus are available by calling Citi at 1-800-831-9146,

INT'L MGT: Hires Auction Management as Trustee's Auctioneer
-----------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Georgia
authorized William F. Perkins, the chapter 11 trustee appointed in
the bankruptcy cases of International Management Associates LLC
and its debtor-affiliates, to employ Auction Management
Corp. as auctioneer.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on July 25, 2006,
the Trustee needs Auction Management's assistance in auctioning
certain of the Debtors' personal property in the Greater Atlanta
area.

Under Auction Management's employment terms, the Firm will be
compensated in this manner:

   a) With respect to sales of Atlanta Assets, the Firm will be
      paid a commission of 5% of the aggregate bid amount, plus
      the Firm will collect and retain the 10% buyer's premium
      added to all winning bids on the Atlanta Assets.

   b) In addition, the Firm has agreed to advance a $26,173
      marketing budget to be used to market the Atlanta Assets,
      with the marketing budget to be reimbursed to the Firm out
      of sales proceeds realized through the sale of Atlanta
      Assets.

The Trustee told the Court that Auction Management's engagement
will:

   -- not require an initial financial outlay from the Debtors'
      estates;

   -- be compensated solely out of sales proceeds the Trustee
      believes will be augmented as a result of the Firm's
      efforts; and

   -- allow the Trustee to market the Atlanta Assets without
      having to make initial provisions for a marketing budget.

To the best of the Trustee's knowledge, Auction Management does
not hold or represent an interest adverse to the Debtors' estates
and is a "disinterested person" under Sec. 101(14) of the
Bankruptcy Code.

Headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, International Management
Associates, LLC -- http://www.imafinance.com/-- managed hedge
funds for investors.  The company and nine of its affiliates filed
for chapter 11 protection on Mar. 16, 2006 (Bankr. N.D. Ga. Case

at Kilpatrick Stockton LLP, represent the Debtors in their

Aldridge, LLP, represent the Official Committee of Unsecured
Creditors.  When the Debtors filed for protection from their
creditors, they did not state their total assets but estimated
total debts to be more than $100 million.

On April 28, 2006, the Court appointed William F. Perkins as the
Debtors' chapter 11 trustee.  Kilpatrick Stockton LLP represents
Mr. Perkins.


ISOTIS S.A.: Posts $3.4 Million Net Loss in Quarter Ended March 31
------------------------------------------------------------------
IsoTis reported a net loss of $3.4 million on total revenues of
$10 million for the first quarter ended March 31, 2007, compared
with a net loss of $3.8 million on total revenues of $9.8 million
for the same period ended March 31, 2006.

Results for the quarter ended March 31, 2006, included a foreign
exchange loss of $1.4 million as a result of U.S. dollar cash
deposits held by the company's European subsidiaries in The
Netherlands and Switzerland and a U.S. dollar denominated
intercompany receivable held in the company's Swiss entity.

The increase in total revenue for the first quarter ended
March 31, 2007, was driven by increased product sales in the
company's U.S. independent and private label distribution
channels.

Cost of sales increased to $4 million in the current quarter from
$3.7 million in the prior period quarter primarily as a result of
increased product sales.

General and administrative expenses increased to $3.4 million from
$2.6 million in 2006 primarily due to $1.6 million of costs
related to the reorganization associated with the exchange offer
between the company and its parent Isotis Inc., and the filing of
Form S-1 at the end of January 2007.  Additionally, the company
recorded a restructuring charge of $600,000 for the remaining
rental obligation for the Dutch facility, which is no longer in
use.

Sales and Marketing expense increased $194,000 to $4.5 million
in the quarter ended March 31, 2007, compared to 2006.  This was
primarily attributable to an expansion of the orthobiologic
specialist team from 8 employees as of March 31, 2006, to 12 as of
March 31, 2007, and from increased revenue in the company's
independent distributor agent network, which resulted in higher
commission expense.

Research and development expense decreased $170,000 to
$1.5 million.  This was primarily attributable to the expiration
of the collaboration agreement with Twente University in the
fourth quarter of 2006.

Interest expense increased 342% to $124,461 in the quarter ended
March 31, 2007, compared to March 31, 2006.  The increase was due
primarily to borrowings on the line of credit with Silicon Valley
Bank.

At March 31, 2007, the company's balance sheet showed
$69.9 million in total assets, $24.9 million in total liabilities,
and $45 million in total stockholders' equity.

statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, are available for

                        Going Concern Doubt

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on May 21, 2007,
Ernst & Young LLP, in Orange County, Calif., expressed substantial
doubt about IsoTis S.A.'s ability to continue as a going concern
after auditing the company's financial statements as of the years
ended Dec. 31, 2006 and 2005.

The auditing firm pointed to the company's history of recurring
losses from operations, cash flow deficits and insufficient
financial resources to fund operations beyond the third quarter of
2007.  In addition, the auditing firm reported that the company
did not comply with a certain loan covenant during 2006, and may
not be able to comply with the covenant in future periods.

Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended
March 31, 2007, was $3.9 million, primarily due to the net loss of
$3.4 million, compared with net cash used in operating activities
of $2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2006.

              Loan Covenant with Silicon Valley Bank

On Aug. 31, 2006, IsoTis OrthoBiologics Inc., a subsidiary of the
company, entered into a loan and security agreement with Silicon
Valley Bank.  The Loan Agreement provides for a revolving credit
facility in the principal amount of up to $5 million, which
includes a $1 million term loan and a $4 million revolving credit
facility.

The Loan Agreement contains tangible net worth covenants with
which IsoTis OrthoBiologics Inc. was not in compliance at Dec. 31,
2006.  Effective April 11, 2007, IsoTis OrthoBiologics Inc.
executed a limited waiver and amendment to the Loan Agreement,
which provides for a waiver of noncompliance at Dec. 31, 2006.
IsoTis OrthoBiologics Inc. was in compliance with the tangible net
worth covenants at March 31, 2007.

LIQUIDMETAL TECHNOLOGIES: Earns $517,000 in Quarter Ended March 31
------------------------------------------------------------------
Liquidmetal Technologies Inc. reported net income of $517,000 on
revenue of $5,067,000 for the first quarter ended March 31, 2007,
compared with a net loss of $6,049,000 on revenue of $6,555,000
for the same period a year ago.

The net income in the first quarter of 2007 includes a
$3.7 million gain from changes in value of warrants and a
$4.3 million gain in value of conversion feature, which offset the
decrease in revenue and a $1.1 million increase in cost of sales.

The revenue decrease consisted of a decrease of $1.8 million from
the sales and prototyping of parts manufactured from bulk
Liquidmetal alloys to consumer electronics customers as a result
of decreased demand from electronic casings applications, offset
by an increase of $300,000 from sales of coatings products as a
result of increase in demand from oil drilling applications.

Cost of sales increased to $6.4 million, or 127% of revenue, for
the three months ended March 31, 2007 from $5.3 million, or 81% of
revenue, for the three months ended March 31, 2006.  The increase
was a result of decreases in bulk Liquidmetal alloy business.

Change in value of warrants increased to a gain of $3.7 million,
or 73% of revenue, for the three months ended March 31, 2007, from
a loss of $1.3 million, or 20% of revenue, for the three months
ended March 31, 2006.  The change in value of warrants consisted
of warrants issued from convertible notes and subordinated notes
funded between 2004 and 2007 primarily as a result of fluctuations
in stock price.

Change in the value of the conversion feature liability from the
senior convertible debt funded in March 2004 and exchanged in
August 2004, August 2005 and January 2007 resulted in a change in
value of conversion feature gain of $4.3 million, or 86% of
revenue, during the three months ended March 31, 2007, from a loss
of $1.8 million or 27% of revenue, for the three months ended
March 31, 2006, primarily as a result of fluctuations in stock
price.

Interest expense was $2.8 million, or 55% of revenue, for the
three months ended March 31, 2007 and was $1.8 million, or 27% of
revenue, for the three months ended March 31, 2006.  The increase
was primarily due to higher debt balance, increased debt discount
amortization, increases in fees from borrowings made under the
April 2005 factoring, loan, and security agreement, and interest
costs accrued for late filing penalties during the three months
ended March 31, 2007.

At March 31, 2007, the company's balance sheet showed $25,375,000
in total assets and $34,697,000 in total liabilities, resulting in
a $9,322,000 total stockholders' deficit.

The company's balance sheet at March 31, 2007, also showed
strained liquidity with $11,643,000 in total current assets
available to pay $27,709,000 in total current liabilities.

                       Going Concern Doubt

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on March 22, 2007,
Choi, Kim & Park LLP, in Los Angeles, expressed substantial doubt
about Liquidmetal Technologies Inc.'s ability to continue as a
going concern after auditing the company's financial statements
for the years ended Dec. 31, 2006, and 2005.  The auditing firm
pointed to the company's significant operating losses and working
capital deficit.

The company has experienced losses from continuing operations
during the last three fiscal years and has an accumulated deficit
of $148,530,000 as of March 31, 2007.  Cash used for operations
for the three months ended March 31, 2007, was $5,445,000 and cash
flow from operations will likely be negative throughout fiscal
year 2007.  As of March 31, 2007, the company's principal sources
of liquidity are $2,937,000 of cash and $3,086,000 of trade
accounts receivable.

MYLAN LABS: Posts $71.3 Million Net Loss in Qtr Ended March 31
--------------------------------------------------------------
Mylan Laboratories Inc. reported a net loss of $71.3 million for
the fourth quarter ended March 31, 2007, as a result of purchase
accounting adjustments for the Matrix acquisition which included
the write-off of $147 million of acquired in- process research and
development, which is recorded without tax effect.  This compares
with net income of $57.6 million reported for the fourth quarter
of fiscal 2006.

Mylan's total revenues for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007 were
$487.3 million, including $79.4 million of third party sales
contributed by Matrix.  This compares with total revenues of
$315.8 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006.

For the fiscal year, total revenues were $1.61 billion, a 28%
increase over total revenues of $1.26 billion in the prior fiscal
year.  Net earnings for the current year were $217.3 million,
which includes a net gain of $50.1 million from the settlement of
certain litigation.  Net earnings for fiscal 2006 were
$184.5 million, which includes a loss of $12.4 million with
respect to a contingent legal liability.

Robert J. Coury, Mylan's vice chairman and chief executive officer
commented: "Fiscal 2007 was truly a historic year for Mylan on
many fronts.  Even with the deferral of the revenue related to
substantially all of our fiscal 2007 amlodipine launch quantities
into fiscal 2008, we once again exceeded the top end of the third
upward revision to our fiscal 2007 guidance.

At the same time we were generating these record breaking results
we also achieved the first major step in our global expansion with
the successful acquisition and integration of Matrix Laboratories.
Most importantly, all of our success in fiscal 2007 positioned us
to transform the global generic pharmaceutical industry with the
acquisition of Merck Generics which will establish Mylan as a
global generic and specialty pharmaceutical industry leader well
positioned to deliver even greater long term growth which will
substantially enhance shareholder value."

On May 12, 2007, Mylan and Merck KGaA announced the signing of a
definitive agreement under which Mylan will acquire Merck's
generics business for EUR4.9 billion euros in an all-cash
transaction.  The transaction remains subject to regulatory review
in relevant jurisdictions and certain other customary closing
conditions, and is expected to close in the second half of
calendar 2007.

Net revenues for the fourth quarter increased $167.9 million or
53% to $483.7 million from $315.8 million in the same prior year
period.  Products launched subsequent to April 1, 2006,
contributed revenues of $42.8 million, primarily due to the launch
of oxybutynin in the company's third quarter.  Additionally,
Mylan's fentanyl transdermal system continues to be the only AB-
rated generic alternative on the market and accounted for over 14%
of fourth quarter net revenues while continuing to be a key growth
driver for both net revenues and gross profit.

The company completed its acquisition of a majority interest in
Matrix Laboratories Limited on Jan. 8, 2007, and began
consolidating Matrix's results of operations from that date.  In
line with the company's expectations, excluding certain non-cash
charges related to the transaction (e.g. write-off of in-process
research and development, amortization of intangible assets and
inventory step-up) but including the impact of financing related
to the acquisition, the impact of Matrix on the consolidated
financial results was not significant.

Gross profit for the fourth quarter was $234.8 million, an
increase of $74.1 million or 46% from the same prior year period,
while gross margins decreased from 49.5% to 48.2%.  This decrease
was primarily due to purchase accounting adjustments recorded in
the fourth quarter of approximately $16.6 million, which consisted
of incremental amortization related to the intangible assets and
the inventory step-up associated with the Matrix acquisition.
Excluding such items, gross margins were 51.5%.  The increase over
the prior year was due to the contribution from fentanyl and
oxybutynin.

The company reported a loss from operations of $7.8 million for
the three months ended March 31, 2007, a decrease of $99.6 million
from the same prior year period.  Excluding purchase accounting
adjustments of approximately $16.6 million and the $147 million
one-time charge to write-off acquired in-process research and
development, earnings from operations would have been
$155.8 million, an increase of $64 million from the prior year.
This is the result of the increase in gross profit, partially
offset by higher operating expenses.

Other income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007 was
$10.4 million compared to $4.1 million in the same prior year
period.  Interest expense was $21 million, an increase of 79% from
the prior year as a result of additional financing incurred with
respect to the Matrix acquisition in January 2007 and the issuance
of $600 million in convertible notes.

At March 31, 2007, the company's balance sheet showed
$4.25 billion in total assets, $2.56 billion in total liabilities,
$43.2 million in minority interest, and $1.65 billion in total
stockholders' equity.

compared with a net loss of $671,222 on revenue of $505,403 for

of non-cash and non-recurring expenses, including depreciation and
amortization, stock-based compensation, the value of shares issued

company's former chief financial officer, and the excess of the
consideration paid over the vested expense of options repurchased

The company also had a working capital deficit of $1,628,624 at

at Dec. 31, 2006.

For the three month comparative period ended February 28, 2006,
results of operations were from mining exploration, an unrelated
business from the sector that the company currently operates in.
As part of its initial public offering and reorganization, the
company made its initial acquisition of oil and gas production on
June 23, 2006.

                          2007 Outlook

For the remainder of 2007, Pegasus plans to participate in the
drilling of 16 wells (14.6 net) in Central Alberta and the Peace
River Arch area.  More specifically, drilling plans include 6 to 9
wells at Crossfield, 2 wells at Cygnet, 4 wells at Chigwell and 1
to 3 deeper test wells under Pegasus' 3D seismic dataset.

In the Crossfield area, Pegasus has committed to drill 8 (7.3 net)
wells of which 2 (1.5 net) are currently drilled and cased and
awaiting completion.  Crossfield will continue to be a focus area
for the company and drilling of the six additional wells will
commence immediately following spring break-up.  With success, the
company sees additional exploration and development drilling
extensions to this medium-depth Basal Quartz play.  Through its
production and land acquisition last fall, Pegasus now has a
working interest in the pipeline infrastructure and gas processing
plant.  The company is currently pursuing analogous geological
play types in this area.

Pegasus continues to interpret its large 500 square miles of
reprocessed 3D seismic data sets that are located in Central
Alberta and Peace River Arch areas of Alberta.  Three dimensional
seismic, coupled with Pegasus' strong technical team, will be
instrumental in positioning our go-forward exploration strategy
allowing for high-impact, organic growth through the drill bit.

With the company's most recently closed $9 million equity
financing and an increased credit facility to $10 million, the
company enters the second quarter with a strong balance sheet.
Pegasus continues to take a diversified business approach,
managing higher reward exploration opportunities and lower risk
development and exploration prospects, to balance its drilling
portfolio.

The company firmly believes that a strong, flexible balance sheet,
coupled with our experienced technical team, emerging core
operating areas, strong drilling inventory and our continued focus
on liquids rich natural gas and high quality light oil, will
ultimately generate superior per share growth for our
shareholders.

The company currently has 23.94 million Class A and 1.012 million
Class B Shares outstanding.

31, 2006, and the forecasted shut-in hydrocarbon production from

quarter of 2006.  Cash flow used in investing activities increased
from $198.1 during the first quarter of 2006 to $239.7 million
during the first quarter of 2007, primarily due to an increase in

(excluding capitalized interest) for capital and exploration
projects and property acquisitions.

POGO PRODUCING: Inks Pact Selling Northrock Resources for $2 Bil.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Pogo Producing Company's of Directors has approved a definitive
agreement under which Pogo will sell all of the outstanding stock
of its wholly owned subsidiary, Northrock Resources Ltd., for
$2.0 billion in cash to Abu Dhabi National Energy Company PJSC.

The sale of Northrock Resources includes properties located
largely in Alberta, Saskatchewan and the Northwest Territories.
Northrock properties currently produce approximately 29,000
barrels of oil equivalent per day (boepd) and contain
approximately 706 billion cubic feet equivalent (bcfe) of
estimated proven reserves as of December 31, 2006. About 51% of
the production and 55% of the Northrock reserves are oil.  The
sale is expected to close during the third quarter of 2007,
subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals.

Paul G. Van Wagenen, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Pogo,
said, "[The] announcement reflects another very significant step
in our strategic alternatives process to unlock unrealized value
from Pogo's asset base.  We are pleased to have entered into this
transaction.  Combined with our previously announced sales of
various non-core assets, mostly in the onshore gulf coast area, as
well as Pogo's strategic exit from the waters of the Gulf of
Mexico, [the] announcement should deliver meaningful incremental
value to Pogo's shareholders.  After closing of this transaction,
Pogo will have sold approximately 900 bcfe of proven reserves for
about $2.6 billion."

Peter E. Barker-Homek, chief executive officer of TAQA said,
"Northrock Resources is a great addition to one of TAQA's core
businesses -- upstream oil and gas producing assets.  Northrock
Resources comes with a best-in-class team of upstream
professionals and well proven producing reserves.  We look forward
to working with the employees of Northrock Resources and
continuing to grow the business."  Barker-Homek further added, "We
see the acquisition of Northrock Resources as a solid base for
further investments and growth in Canada."

On a pro forma basis upon closing of the sale of Northrock, and
following the close of other announced transactions, Pogo will
have a:

    -- focused onshore U.S. asset base with proven reserves of
       approximately 1.3 tcfe with approximately 81% in the
       Western U.S. Division (includes 720 bcfe in the Permian
       Basin and Texas Panhandle, 244 bcfe in the Rockies and 101
       bcfe in the San Juan Basin) and 19% in the onshore Gulf
       Coast Division, including 180 bcfe in south Texas;

    -- reserves mix that is 65% natural gas;

    -- reserves life of 12 years; and

    -- oil and gas production of approximately 47,000 boepd.

In addition, and as a result of the transactions, the company
expects to increase its profitability by:

   -- significantly reducing debt levels and related interest
      expense; and

   -- lowering general, administrative and operating costs.

The company affirmed that it is continuing to explore other
strategic alternatives, which could include the possible sale or
merger of Pogo, the sale of certain additional assets, and
potential changes to the company's business plan and its capital
structure.  There is no assurance that the exploration of
strategic alternatives will result in any further transaction, and
Pogo does not expect to make further public comment regarding any
such transaction unless and until it enters into a definitive
agreement or agreements.  Goldman, Sachs & Co. and TD Securities
Inc. continue to act as financial advisors to Pogo.

2007, compared with a net loss of $1.5 million on net revenue of
$182,295 for the same period in 2006.

The revenue decrease is mainly due to the reorganization of the

focus on government business which business requires longer
selling cycles.

Total operating expenses increased from $1.6 million in the first
quarter of 2006 to $1.8 million in the first quarter of 2007.
This 14% increase was mainly due to expenses related to
consulting, finder's fee expenses and legal Fees.

Other expense increased substantially from $25,977 in the first
quarter of 2006 to $15.4 million in the first quarter of 2007.

Included in other expense are:

    the July 31, 2006, senior convertible notes,

    with the Jan. 18, 2007 financing transaction,

SECURITY WITH: Posts $3,227,489 Net Loss in Quarter Ended March 31
------------------------------------------------------------------
Security With Advanced Technology Inc. reported a net loss of
$3,227,489 on net sales of $152,320 for the first quarter ended
March 31, 2007, compared with a net loss of $1,123,558 on net
sales of $212,835 for the same period a year ago.

The decrease in sales between 2007 and 2006 is attributable to a
decrease in the revenues from the ShiftWatch division in 2007.

Cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2007, totaled
$262,000, which is a $55,000 increase as compared to the 2006
period.

Selling, general and administrative expenses in the three months
ended March 31, 2007, totaled $2,518,000, which is a $1,581,000 or
169% increase as compared to the 2006 period.  The increase is
primarily attributable to an increase of $1,104,000 in stock based
compensation combined with additional overhead costs being
incurred following the Vizer Group Inc. merger that closed as of
Dec. 31, 2006.

Research and development expenses in the three months ended
March 31, 2007, totaled $492,000, which is a $263,000 or 115%
increase as compared to the 2006 period.  The increase is
primarily associated with development costs being incurred in 2007
for the Avurt launcher product and other non-lethal products.

Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2007,
totaled $147,000, which is a $147,000 increase as compared to the
2006 period.  The increase was attributable to the non-cash
amortization of the $138,000 additional interest expense
associated with the amount allocated to the warrants and the
beneficial conversion features from the convertible debt offering
completed in March 2007.

At March 31, 2007, the company's balance sheet showed $12,715,154
in total assets, $1,967,764 in total liabilities, and $10,747,390
in total stockholders' equity.

SILVERWING ENERGY: Pursues Equity Financing & Restructures Project
------------------------------------------------------------------
Silverwing Energy Inc. has concluded its value maximization
process and has entered into agreements to obtain a 50% partner on
its current Tomahawk area farming project in central Alberta.

The company has entered into these agreements to extend its
drilling deadlines pursuant to the Tomahawk Farmin, and to pursue
an equity offering to finance its development and exploration
program and reduce its working capital deficiency.

                       Tomahawk Partnership

Silverwing has entered into a participation agreement with Argen
Energy Corp., a private oil & gas exploration and development
company with offices in Buenos Aires, Argentina and Toronto,
Canada, for the participation by Argen in the farmin agreement
dated May 1, 2006 among Canadian Natural Resources Limited and
Imperial Oil Resources, as farmors, and Silverwing, as farmee.

Pursuant to the Participation Agreement, Argen has agreed to pay
50% of the costs arising under the agreement in order to earn 50%
of Silverwing's earned interest under the agreement.  The
Agreement also includes a requirement for Argen to equalize all
payments made to date under the Farmin Agreement by Silverwing.

                    Tomahawk Farmin Extension

Silverwing has also entered into a letter agreement with CNRL and
IOR wherein CNRL and IOR have agreed to extend the initial
drilling commitment under the Tomahawk Farmin to Dec. 31, 2007.
The Tomahawk Farmin requires the company to drill 29 wells in the
initial phase, with an option to earn additional land with more
drilling commitments.  On an individual well payout basis,
Silverwing must pay 100% of the costs to earn a 60% working
interest in the leases after payout with an average earning of two
sections per well.

The extension is conditional upon:

   (a) Silverwing entering into commitment letter with a 50% joint
       venture partner for the completion of the initial drilling
       program under the Tomahawk Farmin;

   (b) Silverwing providing a signed commitment letter from the
       Agents for the raising of such capital as is necessary to
       complete the initial drilling program under the Tomahawk
       Farmin;

   (c) the payment by Silverwing to CNRL and IOR of an aggregate
       $500,000 on or before May 31, 2007 in consideration of the
       Farmin Agreement extension; and

   (d) the payment by Silverwing to CNRL and IOR of an aggregate
       $11,100,000 to an escrow account on or before May 31, 2007.

The Escrow Funds can be drawn down on a pro-rata basis as
Silverwing meets the drilling commitments under the Farmin
Agreement.

In addition, Argen is in process of negotiating the acquisition
of:

   (1) a 50% interest in 2,180 boepd in Argentina at a cost of
       approximately $20 million USD; and

   (2) a farmin on 2 different exploitation and exploration
       prospects in the Provinces of Neuquen and Santa Cruz,
       Argentina for approximately $50 million USD of drilling and
       completion costs.

Management of Silverwing and Argen anticipate that, following the
completion of the drilling program of 29 wells under the Tomahawk
Farmin Agreement, Silverwing and Argen will discuss effecting a
business combination on a net asset value to net asset value
basis.

                        Credit Facility

In order to obtain the funds necessary to complete the Escrow
Funds condition under the Farmin Agreement extension letter prior
to the condition date, Quest Capital Corp. has entered into a term
sheet with Silverwing to provide a secured credit facility in the
principal amount of $12 million, to be placed into an escrow
account for the discharge of Silverwing's commitments under the
Tomahawk Farmin Agreement, projected for closing on or before
May 31, 2007.  The Loan will be due and payable on or before
Nov. 30, 2007 with no penalty for pre-payment.  The interest
payable on the Loan is 12% per annum, compounded monthly.

In addition, the term sheet calls for Silverwing to issue, subject
to Toronto Stock Exchange approval, 3,400,000 Silverwing shares to
Quest at a deemed price of $0.30 as a standby fee and non-
refundable bonus payment (being 10.1% of the currently issued and
outstanding common shares of Silverwing).

The Loan contemplates security as a second charge against the
company's domestic assets and by general security agreement
against all of the company's present and after-acquired personal
property.  It is intended that the Loan will be repaid from the
proceeds of the Equity Offering.  Following the closing of the
Loan, Quest will, by virtue of the standby fee and non-refundable
bonus payment, be the holder of 9.1% of the issued and outstanding
common shares of Silverwing.

Pursuant to the term sheet, the material conditions precedent to
completion of the Loan are:

   (i) regulatory and TSX approval;

  (ii) approval by the board of directors of Quest;

(iii) completion of due diligence;

  (iv) the Farmin Agreement being in good standing; and

   (v) the company's primary credit facility with National Bank
       remaining less than $15 million.

                    Proposed Equity Offering

Silverwing has engaged Fraser Mackenzie Limited and Jacob &
Company Securities Inc., both of Toronto, to act as exclusive
agents for the public offering of units on a marketed best-efforts
basis to raise gross proceeds of a minimum of $25 million.  The
minimum offering will be the sale of 83,333,333 units with each
unit consisting of one Silverwing common share and one purchase
warrant at a price of CDN$0.30 per Unit.  Each Warrant will be
exercisable into one Common Share at a price of $0.40 per Common
Share for a period for 18 months following the closing of the
Equity Offering.  The Agents also have on option to place up to an
additional $5 million of Units -- 16,666,666 Units -- for a
maximum total offering of $30 million.

For their services in connection with the Equity Offering, the
Agents will receive a cash commission equal to 7% of the aggregate
proceeds of the Equity Offering and warrants to purchase a number
of Common Shares equal to 3.5% of the number of Units sold in the
Equity Offering.  Each Agent's Compensation Warrant will entitle
the Agents to purchase one Common Share at a price of $0.30 per
Common Share for a period of 18 months from the closing of the
Equity Offering.

Following closing of the Loan, and if the maximum Equity Offering
-- including the Over-allotment Option -- is fully subscribed, a
total of 206,900,000 new Common Shares will be issued or issuable
through the Loan and the Equity Offering, representing
approximately 611% of Silverwing's issued and outstanding common
shares.  Depending upon the make-up of the placees under the
Equity Offering, the closing of the Loan and Equity Offering may
materially affect control of Silverwing.  There is currently no
participation in the Equity Offering currently contemplated by
insiders of Silverwing.

The Equity Offering is targeted for closing during or about the
week of June 18, 2007.  The company intends to use the proceeds of
the Equity Offering, net of the fees and expenses of the Equity
Offering, to pursue its development and exploration program in the
Tomahawk area of Alberta and to reduce its working capital
deficiency.

Pursuant to the private placement rules in the TSX Company Manual,
the issuance of greater than 25% of the issued and outstanding
shares of an issuer at a discount to market, as contemplated
pursuant to the Equity Offering, and a potential material affect
on the control of an issuer generally requires shareholder
approval prior to completion.  Silverwing has obtained an
exemption from the TSX from the requirement to seek shareholder
approval pursuant to Section 604(e) of the TSX Company Manual on
the basis of financial hardship.

        Recommendation of Silverwing's Special Committee

A special committee of the Board of Directors of Silverwing
composed of Drew Tumbach, Robert Wagemakers and Geoff Waterman,
each of whom is free from any interest in the Equity Offering or
the Loan and is unrelated to any of the parties involved in the
Equity Offering or the Loan, recommended that the company proceed
with the Equity Offering and the Loan and that, as a result of the
deadline to deposit the Escrow Funds by May 31, 2007, Silverwing
make an application to the TSX for an exemption from the
requirement to seek shareholder approval on a determination of
financial hardship.

Based on this recommendation, the Board has determined that
Silverwing is currently in serious financial difficulty, and that
the offering is designed to improve its financial position and
that is reasonable in the circumstances, and has approved the
Equity Offering and the Loan.

Upon completion of the Equity Offering and the Loan, the company
will no longer be in default under its principal debt facility.

SOLOMON TECH: Posts $4.3 Million Net Loss in Qtr Ended March 31
---------------------------------------------------------------
Solomon Technologies Inc. reported a net loss of $4.3 million for
the first quarter ended March 31, 2007, compared with a net loss
of $7.5 million for the same period in 2006.

Revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, was $1.4 million,
compared with revenues of $5,365 for the quarter ended March 31,
2006.  Revenues in the company's Power Electronics Division
contributed all of the growth as a direct result of the
acquisition of Technipower LLC, which closed Aug. 17, 2006.

The company reported a gross profit of $652,310 for the quarter
ended March 31, 2007, compared with a gross profit of $2,796 for
the quarter ended March 31, 2006.  Net cash used by operating
activities was $471,678 for the quarter ended March 31, 2007,
compared with $190,946 used in the quarter ended March 31, 2006.

"The growth in order backlog for our Power Electronics Division is
particularly encouraging given that 48% of the backlog now
consists of new products developed within the past 24 months.  Our
strategy is taking shape - and the segmented results provide some
early evidence that we will orient our business decisions towards
adding incremental revenue on an accretive basis," commented Gary
Brandt, chief executive officer.  "Our financial results reveal
the profitability inherent in the Power Electronics division and
give us confidence that the investment we are making in new
product development will contribute to improved profitability."

The company had an operating loss of $853,292 for the quarter
ended March 31, 2007, compared with an operating loss of
$1.1 million for the same period in 2006.  The increased gross
profit was partially offset by the increased operating expenses
associated with both financing activities and the Technipower
acquisition.

Major contributors to the reduction in net loss for the first
quarter, as compared with 2006, were non-cash charges of
$5.6 million related to the extinguishment of debt in the prior
year which were somewhat offset by the non-cash interest expenses
incurred in the first quarter of 2007 related primarily to the
debentures due March 17, 2008.

On Jan. 17, 2007, the company sold an aggregate of $5,350,000
principal amount of Variable Rate Self-Liquidating Senior Secured
Convertible Debentures due March 17, 2008.  The company used
approximately $3,350,000 of the net proceeds of the debentures to
redeem 2,873,492 shares of Series C preferred stock, approximately
$768,250 of the net proceeds to pay down a promissory note and
other obligations and retained approximately $1,018,000 of the net
proceeds as working capital.

At March 31, 2007, the company's balance sheet showed $8.5 million
in total assets and $9.7 million in total liabilities, resulting
in a $1.2 million total stockholders' deficit.

The company's balance sheet at March 31, 2006, also showed
strained liquidity with $3.7 million in total current assets
available to pay $9.7 million in total current liabilities.

UHY LLP, in Hartford, Conn., expressed substantial doubt about
Solomon Technologies Inc.'s ability to continue as a going concern

company has incurred significant recurring operating losses, and
used cash in its operating activities.  In addition, the auditor

and used cash of $1,172,498 in operating activities, and as of

SPEEDEMISSIONS INC: Posts $52,128 Net Loss in Qtr Ended March 31
----------------------------------------------------------------
Speedemissions Inc. reported a net loss of $52,128 on revenue of
$2,412,538 for the first quarter ended March 31, 2007, compared
with net income of $28,080 on revenue of $2,427,529 for the same
period last year.

The decrease in revenue was due to the loss of a lease for a high
volume store in Houston.  However, same store sales jumped 3.7%
over the same period last year.

The net loss for the current quarter was mainly due to the loss of
net income from a store closing in Houston, the increase in
operating expenses for two new stores recently opened, a new store
currently under construction and the amortization of the new
employee stock option plan.

Gross margins as a percentage of revenue continued to increase.
Gross margins were up 2% in the quarter at 75.2% from 73.2% in
2006.  Coupled with the improvement in gross margin, the company
was able to reduce its G & A by 6%.

Rich Parlontieri, president/chief executive officer stated, "We
are pleased that our attention to both test speed and customer
satisfaction has brought more traffic to our stores.  We're not
satisfied that we did not achieve a profit for the current
quarter.  Growing the business by opening new stores has been a
drain on our cash and losing the store in Houston when the lease
could not be renewed were the two challenges.  We definitely
continue to see improvement in our existing business and are
working to get these new stores profitable in a timely fashion."

At March 31, 2007, the company's balance sheet showed $8,836,828
in total assets, $1,009,637 in total liabilities, and $7,827,191
in total stockholders' equity.

The company's balance sheet at March 31, 2007, also showed
strained liquidity with $488,878 in total current assets available
to pay $901,326 in total current liabilities.

                       Going Concern Doubt

Tauber & Balser P.C., in Atlanta, expressed substantial doubt
about Speedemissions Inc.'s ability to continue as a going concern
after auditing the company's consolidated financial statements for
the years ended Dec. 31, 2006, and 2005.  The auditing firm
pointed to the company's recurring losses from operations, past
history of operating cash flow deficiencies and its limited
capital resources.

The company generated positive operating cash flows of $57,123 and
$33,109 in the quarters ending March 31, 2007, and 2006,
respectively.  However, the company believes that, with the
increased costs of expanding its operations, it may not achieve
positive operating cash flow on a consistent basis during 2007.

capital of $237,269 at Sept. 30, 2006, or a decrease of $419,949
in the working capital.  The change in working capital resulted
primarily from the Company's operating losses.  Recently the

expanding its operations in Mexico, which may lead to increased
revenues in subsequent periods but generated little revenue during
the six months ended March 31, 2007.  The company had an

TEMPUR-PEDIC: Earns $29.8 Million of Net Income in 1st Qtr. 2007
----------------------------------------------------------------
Tempur-Pedic International Inc. earned $29.8 million of net income
on net revenues of $266 million in the first quarter period ended
March 31, 2007, compared to a net income of $26.9 million on
$228.6 million of net revenues in the same period of 2006.

In the current quarter, net revenues rose 16% to $266 million from
$228.6 million in the first quarter of 2006.

Retail sales increased 19% worldwide, while domestic retail sales
increased 20% and international retail sales increased 19%.

Net income results include stock-based compensation expense, which
increased 127% to $1.8 million in the first quarter of 2007.
First quarter results also include non- recurring charges of $1.8
million for payroll taxes associated with the exercise of certain
executive stock options.

In addition, subsequent to quarter end, the company was notified
of a bankruptcy filing by a U.S. customer and has recorded bad
debt expense of $1.3 million in the first quarter related to this
matter.

President and Chief Executive Officer H. Thomas Bryant commented,
"Tempur- Pedic International delivered a very solid quarter during
what continues to be a challenging environment for the bedding
industry.

"Our new manufacturing facility in Albuquerque experienced a
smooth start- up and production ramped up ahead of our
expectations.  However, we believe our first quarter results were
somewhat moderated by limitations on U.S. capacity and certain
non-recurring charges.  Throughout much of the first quarter, our
U.S. business experienced mattress shortages resulting from strong
consumer demand, low levels of inventory at the beginning of
the year and capacity constraints.  In addition, in order to
minimize backorders for our existing retail partners, we limited
the opening of new accounts such that our total U.S. door count is
unchanged from the prior quarter.

"By late March, the Albuquerque plant had considerably expanded
its throughput which allowed us to build inventory and eliminate
backorders.  As a result, we believe we have ample levels of
mattress inventory and capacity to meet U.S. demand going forward.

"Despite incurring expenses related to shortages, our
manufacturing operations demonstrated outstanding performance.  We
continue to identify and execute on productivity initiatives
driving cost savings and improved efficiencies.

"In the first quarter, our U.S. sales and marketing organization
delivered excellent performance, which resulted in improved sales
and account productivity.  Retail floor space expanded as we
gained incremental slots during the quarter.  However, we delayed
the launch of our new SymphonyBed due to capacity constraints and
strong demand for our existing product line.  The SymphonyBed will
roll-out broadly in the second quarter.  Now that we have
replenished our inventory, we will return to selectively opening
new accounts.

"Internationally, we experienced solid retail and third party
growth.  Importantly, we believe our performance in Japan over the
last two quarters suggests we are on track to turn that market
around.  If that market returns to consistent growth, it would be
an important milestone for our international business.

"Turning to pillows, we are pleased that our renewed focus is
generating strong results.  Our investment in pillow R&D and
marketing is clearly paying off.  Pillow unit volumes were up 20%
in our domestic segment and 19% in our international segment.  We
believe we have identified key opportunities for additional pillow
sales improvements."

                    Share Repurchase Program

During the first quarter of 2007, the company purchased 1.5
million shares of its common stock at an average price of $25.61
for a total cost of $39.2 million.  As of March 31, 2007, the
Company had $60.8 million remaining on its existing share
repurchase authorization.

                            Tax Rate

As a result of recent reductions in statutory tax rates and
updated expectations for geographic mix, the company anticipates
its on-going effective tax rate for 2007 will be 36% as compared
to prior guidance of 37%.

Chief Financial Officer Dale Williams stated, "We are pleased with
the improvement in our corporate tax rate.  We are monitoring
developments in several foreign markets, which, if adopted, could
result in a further improvement.  Over the long term, we
anticipate the tax rate will gradually decline."

                         2007 Guidance

The company reiterated guidance for net sales and increased
guidance for diluted earnings per share for the full year 2007.
The company continues to expect full year 2007 net sales to range
from $1.04 billion to $1.07 billion, an increase of 10% to 13%
over 2006.  The company increased its full year 2007 guidance for
diluted earnings per share only to reflect shares repurchased in
the first quarter of 2007, interest expense on associated
borrowings and a slightly lower tax rate as compared to prior
expectations.  Compared to the company's previous guidance of
$1.50 to $1.54, the company currently expects diluted earnings per
share for 2007 to range from $1.54 to $1.58.  This guidance
reflects an increase of 20% to 23% compared to 2006 EPS of $1.28.
The company noted its expectations are based on information
available at the time of this release, and are subject to
changing conditions, many of which are outside the company's
control.

Bryant concluded, "The expanding specialty bedding category, led
by Tempur-Pedic, is becoming widely accepted as an innovative
alternative to the traditional innerspring mattress category.
Over the long term, we expect to continue to gain market share and
improve productivity as we scale our business into a billion
dollar company on our path to become the worldwide bedding
leader."

Gross margin for the first quarter of fiscal 2008 was 4.72%

gross margin was attributable to higher inventory costs, including
those related to the closure of the UAE operations.

charges totaling in the range of $15 million to $18 million.  The
company anticipates an effective tax rate for the second quarter
of fiscal 2008, excluding the loss on disposal of subsidiaries and
restructuring charges, in the range of 45% to 50%.

TOLL BROTHERS: Earns $36.7 Million in Quarter Ended March 31
------------------------------------------------------------
Toll Brothers Inc. reported a net income of $36.7 million for FY
2007's second-quarter ended April 30, 2007, compared to FY 2006's
second-quarter record of $174.9 million.  In FY 2007, second-
quarter net income was reduced by after-tax write-downs of
$72.9 million.  In FY 2006, second-quarter after-tax write-downs
totaled $7.3 million.

FY 2007's second-quarter total revenues were $1.17 billion
compared to the second-quarter record of $1.44 billion in revenues
in FY 2006.  FY 2007's second-quarter-end backlog was
$4.15 billion compared to the second-quarter record of
$6.07 billion in FY 2006.

FY 2007's second-quarter net signed contracts were $1.17 billion,
a decline of 25% compared to FY 2006's second-quarter total of
$1.56 billion.  The company signed 2,031 contracts (before
cancellations) in FY 2007's second quarter, a 14% decline from the
2,372 signed in FY 2006's second quarter.  Net of cancellations,
second-quarter contracts totaled 1,647 units, down 24% from 2,167
units in the second quarter of FY 2006.

In response to current market conditions, the company continues to
reevaluate and, in some cases, renegotiate its optioned land
positions.  The company ended FY 2007's second quarter with
approximately 65,800 lots owned and optioned compared to
approximately 91,200 and 68,000 at the second-quarter-ends of FY
2006 and FY 2005, respectively.

Robert I. Toll, chairman and chief executive officer, stated: "We
continue to operate conservatively in the current difficult
climate.  We ended the quarter with over $550 million in cash
(compared to about $400 million one year ago) and more than
$1.1 billion available under our bank credit facility.  In the
past year we have trimmed our lot position by 28% from our high of
91,200 lots to our current 65,800 lots.  We have reduced our net
debt to capital ratio to 32% today from 37% at FY 2006's second-
quarter-end.  We believe our prudent approach to managing our
balance sheet should position us well in this down market and
provide us sufficient capital to take advantage of opportunities
that may arise in the future.

"We continue to seek a balance between our short-term goal of
selling homes in a tough market and maximizing the value of our
communities.  Many of our communities are on sites in locations
that are difficult to replace and in markets where approvals are
increasingly difficult to achieve.  We believe that many of these
communities have substantial embedded value, realizable in the
future, that should not be sacrificed in the current soft market."

At April 30, 2007, the company's balance sheet showed
$7.42 billion in total assets, $3.87 billion in total liabilities,
$7.8 million in minority interest, and $3.55 billion in total

URS CORP: To Acquire Washington Group for $2.6 Billion
------------------------------------------------------
URS Corporation and Washington Group International Inc. signed a
definitive agreement for the acquisition of Washington Group by
URS in a cash and stock transaction valued at approximately
$2.6 billion.  The transaction will combine two world-class
engineering and construction companies, expand the capabilities of
both firms and capitalize on their positions in important high
growth sectors, including power, infrastructure and environmental
management.

The companies' combined 2006 revenues would have been
$7.6 billion, the fourth highest among U.S. publicly-traded
engineering and construction companies.  Based on previously
issued guidance, the companies would have combined 2007 revenues
of approximately $8.6 billion. In addition, the companies would
have had combined 2006 EBITDA of $425 million and total backlog
exceeding $11 billion, as of March 31, 2007.  The combined company
would have projects in over 50 countries and more than 54,000
employees.

The combined company will offer a full range of engineering,
construction, operations and maintenance services for both fossil
fuel and nuclear power plants globally.  The combined company also
will have one of the largest teams of nuclear scientists and
engineers in the industry, as well as a leading nuclear
decommissioning and remediation business, enabling it to meet the
anticipated resurgence in the nuclear energy market. In the
infrastructure market, the combined entity will be positioned to
meet growing demand for comprehensive services on large, complex
transportation and water/wastewater projects around the world.  In
addition, the combined company is expected to be a major
contractor to the federal government, including a top five
provider of technical services to the U.S. Department of Defense
and a top provider of engineering, management and environmental
services to the U.S. Department of Energy.

Under the terms of the agreement, which has been unanimously
approved by the boards of directors of both companies, Washington
Group stockholders will receive $43.80 in cash and 0.772 shares of
URS common stock for each Washington Group share.  Based on the
closing price of URS' stock on May 25, 2007, the last trading day
prior to the announcement, the consideration is valued at $80.00
per Washington Group share, with an implied consideration mix of
55% in cash and 45% in stock.  The current value of the
consideration represents a premium of approximately 14% to the May
25, 2007 closing price of Washington Group shares.  The
transaction is intended to allow the portion of consideration
received in URS stock to be tax-free to Washington Group
stockholders.  URS stockholders will retain their shares following
the consummation of the transaction.  Upon completion of the
transaction, Washington Group stockholders would own approximately
31% of the combined company.  The combined company will be called
URS Corporation.

"URS has a history of anticipating change in the industry, and
this transaction is the next logical step in building for future
growth," Martin M. Koffel, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of
URS, said.  "Through this combination, both companies will be
better positioned to capture growth from favorable trends across
the engineering and construction sectors, including the increased
investment in infrastructure projects, the focus on emissions
reduction and energy independence in the power market, and the
increased use of outsourcing by federal agencies, such as the U.S.
Departments of Defense and Energy.  Together, we will have the
resources to meet increasing client demand for a single firm that
can provide the full range of engineering and construction
services required for large, complex projects in these high growth
markets, both in the United States and abroad.  In addition, our
clients will benefit from the combined firm's expanded
capabilities in the oil and gas, industrial process, facilities
design and management, mining and homeland security sectors."

"The transaction is an exceptional opportunity that offers
significant benefits for both URS and Washington Group
stockholders," Mr. Koffel continued. "The combination is expected
to enhance URS' financial performance, including our revenue
growth, long-term profitability and cash flow.  In addition, the
combined company's diversified revenue and client base -- together
with a backlog in excess of $11 billion - is expected to provide
the stability and consistency of earnings that is a hallmark of
URS."

"This transaction will create a new leader in the engineering and
construction industry that will deliver superior value to our
stockholders, customers and employees over the long term," Stephen
G. Hanks, Chief Executive Officer of Washington Group, said.  "The
increased scale and resources of the combined company, including
URS' significant design resources, will further support our
ability to compete for new opportunities in high growth markets.
The combined company also will have a significant presence in the
anticipated resurgence of the nuclear industry, including fuel
sourcing, enrichment, power generation and spent fuel reprocessing
and disposition."

"We have great respect for the URS team, our businesses complement
each other, and we have highly compatible cultures," Mr. Hanks
continued.  "The employees of both companies will enjoy the
benefits of being part of a robust global organization, with a
diverse portfolio of businesses and services and broad career
opportunities.  I look forward to working with Martin and his team
to deliver on the tremendous potential of the combined company."

"I strongly support the transaction with URS, which I believe will
be beneficial to our stockholders, customers, employees and other
constituencies," Dennis Washington, Chairman of the Washington
Group Board of Directors, stated.  Mr. Washington beneficially
owns stock options currently exercisable for approximately 3.2
million shares of Washington Group common stock.

URS expects to achieve annual pre-tax cost synergies of $50
million to $55 million in 2008.  URS also expects the transaction
to be accretive to cash EPS in 2008 and beyond, neutral to
accretive to GAAP EPS in 2008, and accretive to GAAP EPS in 2009
and beyond, not including revenue synergies expected through the
combination.  In addition, the combined company should be able to
benefit from Washington Group's significant favorable tax
attributes.

URS has received a firm commitment from Wells Fargo and Morgan
Stanley to provide debt financing for the cash portion of the
transaction, subject to customary conditions.  The transaction is
not conditioned on financing and is expected to close in the
second half of 2007. Following the close of the transaction, URS
is expected to have approximately $1.5 billion in debt and a debt-
to-total capital ratio of approximately 37%.

"We have a proven track record of successfully integrating large
acquisitions and managing our strong cash flows to pay down debt
aggressively," Mr. Koffel said.  "We are committed to deleveraging
and maintaining balance sheet flexibility."

The transaction is subject to the approval of the merger agreement
by Washington Group stockholders, the approval of URS' issuance of
shares in the transaction by URS stockholders, regulatory
approvals and customary closing conditions.  Mr. Koffel will
remain CEO of the combined company.  Upon completion of the
transaction, one current member of the Washington Group Board of
Directors will join an expanded URS Board of Directors.

Morgan Stanley acted as lead financial advisor to URS and Latham &
Watkins and Cooley Godward Kronish LLP served as URS' legal
counsel.  UBS also advised URS on the transaction. Goldman Sachs
acted as financial advisor to Washington Group and Wachtell,
Lipton, Rosen & Katz and Jones Day served as Washington Group's
legal counsel.

ZIFF DAVIS: Posts $38.2 Million Net Loss in Quarter Ended March 31

Ziff Davis Holdings Inc. reported a net loss of $38.2 million for
the first quarter ended March 31, 2007, compared with a net loss
of $33.5 million for the same period in 2006.

The company's consolidated EBITDA increased to $3.1 million for
the first quarter 2007, up 15% compared to $2.7 million for the
prior year period.  This increase in EBITDA was primarily due to
the growth in the company's digital businesses, which generated a
four-fold increase in EBITDA due to revenue growth and cost
efficiencies.  This improvement was partially offset by a
continued decline in EBITDA for the company's ongoing print
publications.

Consolidated revenues decreased to $32.7 million for the first
quarter of 2007, compared with consolidated revenues of
$40.3 million for the first quarter of 2006.   Excluding revenue
from closed publications, revenue decreased 12% or $4.3 million
compared to the prior year quarter.  Including closed
publications, consolidated revenue was down 19% for the period.
The company's digital revenues increased by 9%, as online growth
of 26% was partly offset by the timing of certain custom marketing
service programs.  Print revenues, excluding closed publications,
declined 24%.

"I'm pleased to report our fourth consecutive quarter of increased
earnings over the prior year," said Robert F. Callahan, chairman
and chief executive officer of Ziff Davis Holdings Inc.  "The
growth of our digital platforms continues to drive the improved
profitability of this business, despite the decline in print
advertising.  Roughly half of our revenues now come from digital
platforms and next quarter we will be well over 50%."

                         Cash Position

At March 31, 2007, the company had $22.2 million of cash and cash
equivalents.  During the first quarter of 2007, the company's cash
and cash equivalents increased $6.8 million.

related to the issuance of an aggregate of $20 million in
principal amount of new Senior Secured Notes due 2012.  The

for general corporate purposes, including payment of interest
obligations on its outstanding debt securities.

interest payments and spent $600,000 for capital expenditures and
$1.7 million in restructuring costs.

At March 31, 2007, the company's balance sheet showed

liabilities, resulting in a $1.24 billion total stockholders'

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.

of Delaware, contact Ken Troubh at Nationwide Research &
