AMBAC FINANCIAL: Rehabilitation Plan Filed for Insurance Unit
-------------------------------------------------------------
Dow Jones' Daily Bankruptcy Review reports that Wisconsin's
insurance commissioner said Friday it has filed a rehabilitation
plan seeking to ensure holders of claims from Ambac Financial
Group Inc.'s bond insurance unit are "compensated fairly."

Ambac Assurance Corporation is the principal operating subsidiary
of Ambac Financial Group, Inc.

In March 2010, the Office of the Commissioner of Insurance of the
State of Wisconsin commenced rehabilitation proceedings with
respect to $35 billion in policies written by Ambac Assurance.
Those policies primarily cover principal and interest payments on
souring mortgage securities.  The regulator also negotiated a
potential settlement to roughly $17 billion in contracts on
complex financial products with a group of banks.  The products --
collateralized-debt obligations -- are pools of securities that
have sharply deteriorated in value.

Headquartered in New York, Ambac Financial Group, Inc., through
its subsidiaries, provided financial guarantees and financial
services to clients in both the public and private sectors around
the world.

KPMG LLP, in New York, expressed substantial doubt about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern, following the
Company's 2009 financial results.  The independent auditors noted
of the significant deterioration of Ambac's guaranteed portfolio
coupled with the inability to write new financial guarantees has
adversely impacted the business, results of operations and
financial condition of the Company's operating subsidiary.  KPMG
also noted of the Company's limited liquidity.

Ambac Financial noted in its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended
June 30, 2010 that its liquidity and solvency are largely
dependent on dividends principal financial guarantee operating
subsidiary, Ambac Assurance Corporation, and on the value of the
subsidiary.  Ambac Financial said that Ambac Assurance is "highly
unlikely" to be able to make dividend payments to Ambac for the
foreseeable future.  Ambac Financial said it is currently pursuing
raising additional capital and is also pursuing a restructuring of
its outstanding debt through a prepackaged bankruptcy proceeding.

The Company's balance sheet at June 30, 2010, showed
$30.05 billion in total assets, $31.47 billion in total
liabilities, and $1.42 billion in stockholders' deficit.

Ambac once boasted top triple-A credit ratings.  In November 2009,
Ambac warned it could have problems paying off debt that comes due
in 2011.  Before the financial crisis, Ambac was the second-
biggest bond insurer behind MBIA Inc.


ALANCO TECHNOLOGIES: Semple Marchal Raises Going Concern Doubt
--------------------------------------------------------------
Alanco Technologies, Inc., filed on October 7, 2010, its annual
report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010.

Semple, Marchal & Cooper, LLP, in Phoenix, Ariz., expressed
substantial doubt about Alanco Technologies, Inc.'s ability to
continue as a going concern.  The independent auditors noted that
the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations,
anticipates additional losses in the next year, and has
insufficient working capital as of June 30, 2010, to fund the
anticipated losses.

The Company reported a net loss of $9.1 million on $14.6 million
of revenue for fiscal 2010, compared with a net loss of
$5.4 million on $13.6 million of revenue for fiscal 2009.

The loss from continuing operations for the fiscal year ended
June 30, 2010, was $2.6 million, a $2.7 million improvement when
compared to the loss from continuing operations of $5.3 million
reported for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009.

For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, the loss from
discontinued operations was $6.6 million compared to a loss from
discontinued operations of $152,100 for fiscal 2009.

The Company's balance sheet at June 30, 2010, showed $20.5 million
in total assets, $10.5 million in total liabilities, $1.1 million
in Series B convertible preferred stock, and stockholders' equity
of $8.9 million.

                    About Alanco Technologies

Headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona, Alanco Technologies, Inc.
(Nasdaq: ALAN) -- http://www.alanco.com/-- provides wireless
monitoring and asset management solutions through its StarTrak
Systems subsidiary.

The Data Storage operations were sold in the third quarter ended
March 31, 2010, and the RFID Technology segment was sold
subsequent to June 30, 2010, in the first quarter of fiscal year
ended June 30, 2011.


ALFRED VILLALOBOS: Needs to Address Calif. Issues to File Plan
--------------------------------------------------------------
Alfred J.R. Villalobos and debtor-affiliates ask the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware to extend their
exclusive periods to file the proposed Chapter 11 Plan of
Reorganization until January 5, 2011.  The Debtors also ask the
Court to grant a 90 day extension in their plan solicitation
period.

The Debtors need additional time to address these concerns:

   -- State of California's motion seeking to maintain the
      receiver or alternatively to appoint a trustee; and

   -- the motion seeking a determination that the automatic stay
      does not apply to the State Court action.

The Debtors relate that until these matters are resolved, they
could not proceed with the appropriate analysis and negotiations
with key creditors in connection with the formulation of the Plan.

The Debtors propose a hearing on their exclusivity extension on
November 2, 2010, at 9:00 a.m.

                   About Alfred J.R. Villalobos

Stateline, Nevada-based Alfred J.R. Villalobos -- together with
Arvo Art, Inc., and two other affiliates -- filed for Chapter 11
bankruptcy protection on June 9, 2010 (Bankr. D. Nev. Case No. 10-
52248).  Stephen R. Harris, Esq., at Belding, Harris & Petroni,
Ltd, assists the Company in its restructuring effort.  The Company
estimated its assets and debts at $10 million to $50 million.


AMTRUST FINANCIAL: Has Until October 26 to Propose Chapter 11 Plan
------------------------------------------------------------------
Pat E. Morgenstern-Clarren of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Northern District of Ohio extended AmTrust Financial Corp., now
known as AmFin Financial Corporation, et al.'s exclusive periods
to file and solicit acceptances for the proposed Chapter 11 Plan
until October 26, 2010, and December 24, respectively.

AmTrust Financial Corp. (PINK: AFNL), now known as AmFin Financial
Corp., was the owner of the AmTrust Bank.  AmTrust was the
seventh-largest holder of deposits in South Florida, with
$4.7 billion in deposits and 21 branches.

In November 2008, the Office of Thrift Supervision issued a cease
and desist order requiring AmTrust to improve its capital ratios.

AmTrust Financial, together with affiliates that include AmTrust
Management Inc., filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on
November 30, 2009 (Bankr. N.D. Ohio Case No. 09-21323).  G.
Christopher Meyer, Esq., and Sherri Lynn Dahl, Esq., at Squire
Sanders & Dempsey L.L.P., assist the Debtors in their
restructuring effort.  Kurtzman Carson Consultants serves as
claims and notice agent.  Attorneys at Hahn Loeser & Parks LLP
serve as counsel to the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors.

AmTrust Management estimated $100 million to $500 million in
assets and liabilities in its Chapter 11 petition.

AmTrust Bank was not part of the Chapter 11 filings.  On Dec. 4,
2009, AmTrust Bank was closed by regulators, and the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation was named receiver.  New York
Community Bank, Westbury, New York, assumed all of the deposits of
AmTrust Bank, pursuant to a deal with the FDIC.

BEAUDRY RV: Suspends Operations; Lenders Seek Trustee
-----------------------------------------------------
Dale Quinn, writing for the Arizona Daily Star, reports that
Beaudry RV Co. has suspended operations as bankruptcy creditors
say the company's recent sale has forced its real estate loans
into default.  All the company's employees have been laid off,
with some saying they haven't been paid for their last two weeks
of work.

The Star says attorneys for Bank of America, Wells Fargo and
Comerica Bank -- creditors in Beaudry's 2008 bankruptcy -- filed a
motion in U.S. Bankruptcy Court saying they were surprised by the
recent sale of Beaudry to an investors group.  They're asking for
immediate appointment of a liquidating trustee, arguing the sale
violated loan documents and real estate loans in default.  That
liquidating trustee would have sole authority over the company's
real estate collateral.

The Star notes a group of investors led by Greg Harrington and
Peter Workum completed a series of transactions in mid-September
2010 to acquire Beaudry RV's properties and operations in Tucson
and Chandler, Arizona.  Mr. Harrington said at the time the new
investors had plans to expand the company.  Those plans quickly
hit a snag.  The turnaround proved impossible because of Beaudry's
current legal situation, the RV market and budget constraints, the
investors group said Thursday.

According to the Star, when asked if the company's temporary
shutdown could become permanent, Mr. Harrington said he couldn't
address that issue at this time.

                         About Beaudry RV

      keep its insurance payments current and incurring a Notice
      of Default on March 29, 2010;

   c) the Debtor failed to pay taxes owed after the date of the
      order for relief or to file tax returns due after the date

BENDER SHIPBUILDING: Plan Confirmation Hearing Set for December 3
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Alabama
will convene a hearing on December 3, 2010, at 8:30 a.m. (Central
Time), to consider the confirmation of a proposed Plan of
Liquidation for Bender Shipbuilding & Repair Co.

The Plan proponents are the Debtor and the Official Committee of
Unsecured Creditors.  The Plan has the support of the Debtor's
primary secured creditors, General Electric Capital Corporation
and GE Business Financial Services Inc., Marquette, and OSG (which
is also the holder of one of the largest unsecured claims).

Objections, if any, to the confirmation of the Plan, and ballots
accepting or rejecting the Plan are due November 15 at 5:00 p.m.
Any objection of GulfMark Offshore, Inc., must be filed by
November 1 at 5:00 p.m.

Parties in interest may file a written responses to any Plan
objection no later than 5:00 p.m. on November 26.

The deadline for the Debtor and the Committee to respond to
discovery already propounded by GulfMark Offshore, Inc., will be
October 25.   The deadline for parties other than GulfMark
Offshore, Inc. to propound discovery will be October 29.  All
discovery will be completed by November 30.

The Voting Record Date will be October 12.

According to the Disclosure Statement, the Plan contemplates the
liquidation of and distributions from various assets in accordance
with the Waterfall -- the priority and distribution protocol to be
used by the Plan Administrator in making distributions of and from
the asset groups.

The Debtor will remain in existence after the Effective Date,
except that the Debtor's board of directors and management will no
longer control the Debtor; instead, on the Effective Date, Scouler
& Company, the Committee's financial advisors, will be appointed
as the Plan Administrator.

The Plan Administrator will complete the liquidation of the
Debtor's remaining assets, implement the terms of the Plan, and
make distributions.

Under the Plan, holders of Allowed Class 7 Claims will be entitled
to a pro rata Share of a portion of the proceeds of the settlement
contributions from GE, Marquette, OSG, and the related parties.
Holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims will receive a
substantially lower distribution consistent with (but still
likely higher than) what they would have received if this were a
liquidation under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code.

The Plan will be funded with (i) approximately $10.29 million in
value arising from the settlement of the estate's claims against
the related parties; (ii) substantial direct and indirect
contributions by GE, Marquette, and OSG that were offered in
consideration of the treatment of their respective claims herein;
(iii) the deferment of millions of dollars in compensation by the
professionals of the estate; (iv) the litigation of claims against
certain third parties; and (v) the liquidation of the estate's
remaining assets.  The Plan implements settlements with GE,
Marquette, OSG, and the Related Parties that are critical to
provide and maximize recoveries to the holders of Allowed General
Unsecured Claims.

BIRDWELL INTERNATIONAL: To Liquidate Under Chapter 7 in Maryland

32991) on October 6.  Niti Crupiti, Esq., serves as bankruptcy

BOMBARDIER INC: DBRS Confirms 'BB' Issuer Rating
------------------------------------------------
DBRS has confirmed the Issuer Rating and the Senior Unsecured
Debentures rating of Bombardier Inc. (BBD or the Company) at BB with
a Stable trend.  BBD's Preferred Shares have also been confirmed, at
Pfd-4 with a Stable trend.  The Company's financial and business risk
profiles remain acceptable for the current ratings, which are not
expected to change in the near term.  BBD is a leading global
manufacturer of transportation equipment, including a broad range of
business and commercial aircraft.

BBD's operating results weakened over the past year, but were
reasonable when considering the extent of the downturn in aircraft
industry conditions.  BBD's aerospace business (BA), which accounts
for close to 50% of sales, experienced a sharp decline in earnings
and cash flow in F2010 and H1 F2011.  Lower business aircraft orders
and deliveries, partly from a spike in cancellations, were mainly
responsible and driven by weaker economic conditions and reduced
customer access to financing.  The Company's commercial aircraft
business was relatively stable during the year, albeit from a low
base.  While BA operating margins materially declined in F2010 on a
year-over-year basis, they were only modestly below the five-year
average levels.

Earnings for the Company's transportation business (BT) in F2010
continued the trend of steady growth since F2006, and have helped to
mitigate the pressure facing BA.  Despite economic softness and
uncertainty in Europe (BT's largest market), operating results were
stable through H1 F2011 and order activity has been favourable.
Growth in Asia-Pacific and North American sales has largely offset
reduced activity in Europe over the past 12 months to July 31, 2010.
Margins continued to trend positively to solid levels, which is
partly attributable to improved contract execution/efficiency gains.

Over the near term, BBD's sales and earnings are expected to decline,
but margins should remain relatively stable.  BA results are likely
to remain under pressure but aerospace industry conditions appear to
have stabilized; order intake has improved (albeit at a modest rate)
and should be higher in H2 F2011.  A favourable mix of sales from
larger and more expensive business aircraft, as well as improved
pricing, should help offset the impact of further delivery declines
on operating earnings.  BT operating results are expected to remain
solid, although are likely to be modestly lower than in F2010.  Sales
should decline due to softer demand related to economic
conditions/uncertainty in Europe but the order backlog remains
strong.  Combined with recent contract wins, this should translate
into earnings growth in F2012.

BBD's balance sheet leverage remains high for a cyclical company and
currently limits upside to the ratings.  Large capex requirements,
particularly related to the Company's CSeries program (scheduled for
delivery in 2013), limited its ability to generate free cash flow
(before working capital) in F2010.  Debt and cash were used to
finance significant working capital requirements in H1 F2011, but
working capital outflows should largely reverse in H2 2011 (partly
from advances related to an improved order intake).  As such, DBRS
does not expect BBD's balance sheet to witness significant change
over the near term, with debt likely remaining relatively constant or
slightly higher.  The Company's core credit metrics should modestly
weaken, with adjusted debt-to-EBITDA in the high 3.0 times range, but
remain acceptable for the ratings.  The recent refinancing of long-
term debt has helped extend the Company's maturity schedule and
reduced near-term financing requirements, which adds financial
flexibility, and liquidity is not a concern.


BOSACKI'S NORTH: Reopens for Biz With New Name, New Owner

November 17, 2009.  Judge Thomas S. Utschig presided over the
case.  Jerome R. Kerkman, Esq., at Kerkman & Dunn, in Milwaukee,
served as bankruptcy counsel.  According to its schedules, the
Company had assets of $2,026,000 and debts of $1,608,538.


BOSQUE POWER: Judge Approves Senior Lenders' Reorganization Plan
----------------------------------------------------------------
Bankruptcy Law360 reports that Judge Ronald B. King of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Texas has given final
approval to a reorganization plan for Bosque Power Co. LLC put
forth by the electric utility's senior lenders.

the lenders' Plan provides that on the effective date: (a) all of
the issued and outstanding equity interests in BPP will be
cancelled; and (b) Reorganized BPP will issue the new securities
to the holders of the Class 2 prepetition secured obligation
claims.

All property comprising the estates of each Reorganizing Debtor,
including, but not limited to, all avoidance actions and all
causes of action will automatically be retained and revested in
the relevant Reorganized Debtor or its respective successor.

   5 General Unsecured Claims                       100%

   6 Intercompany Claims                              0%

   7 Intercompany Interests in BPC                   N/A

Each Holder of Claims in Class 2 will receive its pro rata share
of 100% of the new securities issued by BPP and outstanding on the
effective date.  Additionally, the Reorganized Debtors will pay in
full, in cash, any and all outstanding and unpaid fees and
expenses incurred by the prepetition secured parties'
professionals and the L/C issuer through the effective date
without further motion, fee application or order of the Bankruptcy
Court.

Although Holders of Intercompany Interests in BPC will not receive
any distribution on account of the intercompany interests,
intercompany interests in BPC will not be cancelled and, solely to
implement the PSP Plan, will be reinstated.

BRAMPTON PLANTATION: Unsecured Creditors to Recover 40% Under Plan
------------------------------------------------------------------
Brampton Plantation, LLC, submitted to the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Southern District of Georgia its proposed Plan of
Reorganization and an explanatory Disclosure Statement.

The Debtor will begin soliciting votes on the Plan following
approval of the adequacy of the information in the Disclosure
Statement.

According to the Disclosure Statement, the Plan proposes to pay
all unclassified administrative claims either in full upon the
effective date or as may be otherwise be agreed among the Debtor
and the respective claimants.  The Plan also proposes to convey to
all priority tax claims and to secured creditors property equal in
value to the debt those creditors are owed, and a pro rata
distribution of other property to general unsecured creditors.

                Treatment of Claims and Interests

Holders of Classes 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 will retain their existing
lien on the Debtor's property until a period of time not to exceed
six months from the effective date during which land of a value
sufficient to satisfy the bank's debt will be parceled out of the
property of Debtor and transferred in fee simple to these
creditor.

by the transfer to a trust for the benefit of Class 7 creditors

be managed by the Trust with all Class 7 members of the Trust
being entitled to a pro rata share of the property sold or income
generated on behalf of the Trust. The Debtor estimates that the
pro rata distribution to Class 7 Creditors will approximate a 40%
distribution on account of such claims.

BROWN'S CHICKEN: Big Apple Bagels Owner Bids $250,000 for Assets
----------------------------------------------------------------
The Chicago Sun-Times' Sandra Guy reports that BAB Inc., which
owns Big Apple Bagels, has submitted a starting bid for Brown's
Chicken & Pasta restaurants, which agreed to be put on the auction
block after warring factions forced it into bankruptcy, according
to the creditors' committee attorney.

Sun-Times reports that the $250,000 bid, considered the stalking-
horse bid, represents BAB's offer for substantially all of the
Brown's Chicken & Pasta restaurant chain, said attorney Scott
Schreiber, Esq.  All bids were due at the close of business on
Monday.

A BAB spokesman did not return a call for comment on Friday, the
report says.

Brown's operates 38 restaurants, of which two are company-owned.
The rest are franchised.  The company was forced to file for
Chapter 11 bankruptcy in December 2009 after a DuPage County judge
ruled in favor of a former co-owner.  Judge Kenneth Popejoy ruled
in October 2009 that Thomas Kennefick, Brown's 37-year former vice
president and minority owner, was owed $882,000 for his share in
the company.  Mr. Kennefick owned 36% of the company's stock,
while Frank Portillo Jr., Brown's chairman and co-founder, owns
64%.


BRUNDAGE-BONE: Can Use Cash Collateral Until Nov. 30
----------------------------------------------------
Brundage-Bone Concrete Pumping, Inc., and affiliate JLS Concrete
Pumping, Inc., obtained authorization from the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court for the District of Colorado to extend the use of Wells
Fargo Bank, N.A.'s cash collateral through November 30, 2010.

On February 10, 2010, the Debtors filed an amended motion for
final order approving debtor in possession financing, use of cash
collateral and adequate protection.  Through the DIP financing
motion, the Debtors sought approval of their final debtor in
possession financing agreement with Wells Fargo and use of cash
collateral.  The Court entered its order approving the DIP
financing motion on March 1, 2010, which authorized use of cash
collateral and DIP financing through July 18, 2010.

On July 16, 2010, the Debtors and Wells Fargo filed their
stipulated motion to extend the use of cash collateral and
adequate protection under the terms of the prior court order.  On
July 22, 2010, the Court approved that motion, extending the
Debtor's use of cash collateral through August 16, 2010.

On August 16, 2010, the Debtors and Wells Fargo filed their second
stipulated motion to extend the use of cash collateral and
adequate protection under the terms of the prior court order.  On
August 22, 2010, the Court granted the stipulated motion to extend
the Debtors' use of cash collateral through September 16, 2010.

The Debtors, Wells Fargo and the other major parties-in-interest
have been negotiating the terms of amendments to the Debtors'
previously filed plan of reorganization and will be filing an
amended plan and submitting other key documents to parties-in-
interest for review over the next thirty days.  The Debtors and
Wells Fargo have been negotiating the terms of an amended DIP
financing which are based on certain milestones being met towards
confirmation of a plan of reorganization.  The Debtor and Wells
Fargo need additional time to negotiate on these items and have
agreed pursuant to a stipulation to extend the Debtor's use of
cash collateral through November 30, 2010, to provide time to
conclude the negotiations and provide adequate notice to parties
in interest of the terms of the extended DIP financing.

The Debtors have represented to Wells Fargo that they have
sufficient cash to meet their operating needs through November 30,
2010, without the need to draw down on the DIP Financing.  Wells
Fargo has consented to the use of cash collateral through
November 30, 2010, subject to the same priority provisions, carve
out provisions, adequate protection liens, Section 507(b) priority
claims, cash management procedures and other rights granted in the
DIP financing order for the use of cash collateral.  As adequate
protection for the use of cash collateral, Wells Fargo will be
granted: 1) a first priority, valid, enforceable, perfected, and
unavoidable replacement lien on all of the Debtors' postpetition
collateral of the same type and categories of postpetition
collateral as Wells Fargo Bank has held in prepetition collateral;
and 2) a superpriority claim.

Any proceeds from the sale of any real estate that is collateral
for the DIP loan during this period will be applied to pay down
the DIP Loan.

To permit further negotiations on extension of the DIP financing
and the terms of the Plan, Wells Fargo agrees to (i) forbear from
declaring an event of default under the DIP financing order based
upon the Debtors' failure to satisfy the obligations under the DIP
financing on or before July 16, 2010, and (ii) to extend the
maturity date to the earlier of: (a) November 30, 2010 or (b) any
default other than the existing default.

In connection with the DIP Loan, and use of cash collateral, the
Debtors provide weekly budgets to Wells Fargo describing the
Debtors' expected working capital needs.  One condition of the
continued availability of funds is the Debtors' performance in
substantial conformity with the weekly budget, a copy of which is
available for free at:

after payment of Allowed Administrative Claims, Allowed Secured
Claims, Allowed Priority Claims, and the post-confirmation

CABI DOWNTOWN: Lenders Can Sell Condo Units; Plan Hearing Moved
---------------------------------------------------------------
Oscar Pedro Musibay, writing for South Florida Business Journal,
reports that a U.S. bankruptcy judge has granted a consortium of
lenders, led by Bank of America, the ability to shop 700 unsold
units at Everglades on the Bay and the more than $200 million in
debt tied to them, according to court documents.  The Court also
agreed to push back the hearing on developer Cabi Downtown's
Chapter 11 plan to October 27.

The Business Journal reports that Bank of America's attorney,
Larry Glick Esq., at Shutts & Bowen, did not immediately return a
call seeking comment.  Cabi attorney Mindy Mora, Esq., at Bilzin
Sumberg Baena Price & Axelrod LLP, was not available for comment.

The Business Journal relates that on May 28, Cabi agreed to give
the project back to its lending group.  The agreement required
Cabi to transfer title to the banks, but allowed the developer to
remain on-site manager for the nearly $300 million project.  That
deal was criticized by creditors as providing "undisclosed
benefits" that would give Cabi Downtown "an undisclosed equity
kicker that pays a minimum of $4 million and possibly tens of
millions of dollars for unknown purported services while absolving
Cabi of its loan guaranties."

                        About Cabi Downtown

CENTERPOINT ENERGY: Fitch Affirms 'BB' Trust Preferred Rating
-------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has affirmed the ratings for CenterPoint Energy,
Inc., CenterPoint Energy Resources Corp. and CenterPoint Energy
Houston Electric, LLC.  The Rating Outlook for each company is
Stable.  A full rating list is shown below.  Approximately
$6.6 billion of outstanding long-term debt is affected.

CNP's ratings are supported by upstream dividend payments from its
mostly regulated subsidiaries, a diverse business mix across
electric and gas operations and conservative risk management
strategy that limits exposure to commodity price movements.  Fitch
acknowledges the consistent progress that management has made in
reducing the consolidated leverage; CNP enhanced its capital
structure by issuing 25.3 million shares in June 2010 with gross
proceeds of $326 million.  Nonetheless, holding company leverage
remains relatively high as a result of legacy stranded costs
issues.

Fitch notes that management has been taking advantage of its
strategically located natural gas infrastructure to grow the non-
regulated field services business.  So far, the growth has
primarily come from contractual, fee-based revenue arrangements
with a very small variable component to margins.  It is Fitch's
expectation that the regulated and non-regulated fee-based
businesses will continue to contribute more than 90% of the
consolidated operating income of CNP.  Fitch expects capital
spending needs to reduce to a level that can be funded primarily
through internally generated cash flow beyond 2010.  The liquidity
position is strong with minimal borrowings under the existing
credit facilities, both at CNP and each of its subsidiaries.
Fitch expects the consolidated Funds Flow from Operations to total
debt to improve to approximately 17% and total debt to EBITDA at
3.6 times by the end of 2012.

The Stable Outlook for CNP assumes that the electric and gas
utilities, pipelines and field services businesses will continue
to perform well and the sensitivity of cash flows and working
capital needs to changes in commodity prices will remain low.  The
Outlook also incorporates the expectation that CNP will be able to
complete its anticipated debt issuances and refinancings.
Improvement in leverage and coverage ratios through cash flow
growth or other means is key to any improvement in CNP's current
ratings or Outlook.

Fitch's primary credit concern for CNP is the still highly
leveraged consolidated balance sheet and weak coverage ratios
relative to the rating guidelines as a result of the legacy
stranded costs incurred from generation asset divestitures in
2004, despite gradual improvement.  Other concerns include
disproportionate growth of non-regulated operations, which have
relatively higher business risk and the potential for an
unfavorable decision in the stranded cost litigation.

CERC's ratings and Stable Outlook are supported by stable and
predictable cash flows from its regulated local gas distribution
companies as well as contractual cash flows from its interstate
pipelines and field services businesses.  The LDCs cash flows are
stabilized through purchase gas adjustment mechanisms.  Fitch
expects the LDCs to earn close to their authorized ROEs in 2010,
in contrast to a history of under-earning, aided by weather and
rate relief.  A significant majority of the interstate pipeline
capacity is subscribed leading to high visibility in cash flows.
Cash flows at CERC's field services segment, though non-regulated,
are mainly tied to stable, fee-based revenue streams, thus,
minimizing large exposure to movements in commodity prices.  Over
the last 15 months, the field services segment has entered into
long-term gas gathering and treating agreements with creditworthy
counterparties.  The predominantly fee-based nature of these
agreements and throughput guarantees mitigates Fitch's concern
around the growing proportion of field services operations in the
overall business mix at CERC.  CERC also owns a competitive
natural gas marketing business.  In this business, CERC takes no
commodity risk and management has implemented an internal cap on
working capital requirements to limit its collateral exposure to
falling natural gas prices.

CERC's credit ratios in 2010 are modestly lower than Fitch's
guidelines for a 'BBB'-rated issuer but are expected to improve
over the forecast period.  Fitch expects CERC's FFO to total debt
to improve to approximately 18% and total debt to EBITDA at 3.6x
over the next two years.  Key rating drivers considered include
the overall business mix at CERC, contract demand and uncontracted
margins at the pipeline segment, throughput growth at the LDCs,
likely outcome of the pending and potential rate case at regulated
businesses, and execution of the capex plan at the field services
segment.

Fitch would be concerned if management were to pursue a debt
financed expansion strategy or disproportionately grow commodity
sensitive, non-fee based businesses.  Other concerns include
sensitivity of operating income and collateral needs to the
falling commodity prices.

CEHE's rating and Stable Outlook reflect the low business risk
of its regulated electric transmission and distribution
operations in Texas.  CEHE provides electric delivery service
to roughly 2 million customers, primarily in Houston, on behalf
of retail electric providers under tariffs approved by the
Public Utilities Commission of Texas.  Houston has historically
been an attractive service territory and sales have recovered
after slowing down in 2008 and the first half of 2009.  In
addition, due to a high proportion of demand charges, CEHE
bears little volumetric risk on its large commercial and
industrial sales, which comprise a majority of its sales mix.

The regulatory environment in Texas has stabilized and the
deregulation seems to be working well.  CEHE bears no commodity
risk.  The risk of bad debt due to potential defaults by the REPs
has been minimized due to credit requirements imposed by the PUCT
and the depressed commodity environment.  Additionally, by PUC
rule, CEHE can reserve any bad debt resulting from a REP default.
CEHE has the ability to earn a return on its transmission
investments with minimal regulatory lag.  On its distribution
operations, the utility modestly under-earned its allowed ROE in
2009 on a weather-adjusted basis and, in July 2010, filed for a
distribution base rate increase of $76 million (which was
subsequently revised to $93 million) for new rates to be effective
in 2011.  The rate filing also requests an increase of $18 million
for wholesale transmission customers.  CEHE's rate request is
based on 11.25% ROE and 50% equity ratio.  In its recommendation,
the PUC Staff recommended a disappointing 9.67% ROE.  However, the
Staff did recommend a 45% equity ratio, which is an improvement
over CEHE's current equity ratio of 40%.  A final decision by the
PUCT is expected by the end of the year.

Fitch expects a strengthening of CEHE's credit metrics over the
forecast period based on an expectation of a constructive outcome
in the pending rate case.  Fitch forecasts CEHE's FFO to total
debt to stabilize around 19% and total debt to EBITDA at 2.9x;
these metrics are strong compared to Fitch's guideline ratios for
a 'BBB'-rated utility.  The consideration of a positive rating
action for CEHE is tied to the outcome of the pending stranded
cost litigation.  Key rating drivers considered include customer
growth, likely outcome of the pending rate case and the stranded
cost litigation, and execution of the capex plan.

Rating concerns include uncertainty regarding the outcome of the
pending rate case and the potential for an unfavorable decision in
the stranded cost litigation.  In addition, event risk for CEHE
seems to be higher given the region's vulnerability to hurricanes.
However, CEHE has been authorized to recover most of the storm
recovery costs arising from Hurricane Ike via securitization and
amended its $1.2 billion revolver facility to permit covenant
relief in case a large storm hits its service territory.
Additionally, legislation has been passed in Texas that allows
utilities to securitize prospective storm costs.

Fitch affirms these ratings with a Stable Outlook:

CenterPoint Energy, Inc.

  -- IDR at 'BBB-';

  -- Senior Unsecured Notes and pollution control revenue bonds at
     'BBB-';

  -- Secured pollution control revenue bonds at 'A-';

The Company carries a 'B+' corporate credit rating from Standard &
Poor's.

In June 2010, when Fitch Ratings downgraded the Issuer Default
Rating to 'B' from 'B+', the rating agency said, "The downgrade
reflects the increase in financial and business risk caused by
Cincinnati Bell's acquisition of privately held data center
operator CyrusOne Networks, LLC, as well as a potentially more
aggressive strategy on the part of CBB to expand its data center
business."

Fitch Ratings has issued its Recovery Rating review of the U.S. &
Canada Telecommunications and Cable sector.  This review includes
an analysis of valuation multiples, EBITDA discounts applied and
detailed recovery worksheets for issuers with a Fitch Issuer
Default Rating of 'B+' or lower in this sector.


CITADEL BROADCASTING: R2 Wants Restricted Stock Awards Revoked
--------------------------------------------------------------
Radio-Info.com reports that R2 Investments is asking the
Bankruptcy Court to order Citadel Broadcasting Corporation to
revoke its awards of restricted stock to managers, and issue stock
options, instead.  R2 contends those will properly incentivize
management to improve the company.  R2 calls the award of $1.35
million to each director "a disturbing game of quid pro quo" with
management.

According to the report, R2 says CEO Farid Suleman and the Citadel
directors displayed "a shocking amount of corporate greed and
dishonesty" by going for an "egregious payoff" in stock, instead
of stock options.  According to the report, R2 estimates that Mr.
Suleman alone will eventually bank $55 million based on the equity
grants, and each of the directors would see more than
$1.35 million.  R2, according to the report, says the result is
"not what creditors expected when they voted on the plan."

According to Radio-Info.com, R2 says "Citadel now has the highest-
paid management in the terrestrial radio broadcasting industry."

CLEARWATER PAPER: Moody's Confirms 'Ba2' Corporate Family Rating
----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service confirmed Clearwater Paper Corporation's
Ba2 corporate family rating and the Ba3 rating on the company's
existing senior notes.   At the same time Moody's assigned a Ba3
rating to Clearwater's proposed $350 million senior note offering.
Proceeds from the new debt offerings will be used to fund, in
part, the acquisition of Cellu Tissue Holdings Inc. (B1/Stable).
The rating confirmation concludes a review initiated on September
16, 2010, following the company's announcement that it had signed
a definitive agreement to acquire Cellu Tissue for $502 million.
The transaction is expected to close before the end of the year.
The rating outlook is stable and the company's speculative
liquidity rating has been lowered to SGL-2 from SGL-1.

                        Ratings Rationale

The ratings confirmation is primarily supported by Clearwater's
strong financial performance and liquidity that gives it the
ability to absorb both the Cellu Tissue acquisition and finance
the construction of its previously announced $260 - $280 million
tissue machine and converting facilities in Shelby, North
Carolina.  The all-debt financing of the acquisition is expected
to leave Clearwater with reasonable leverage (2.6x pro forma for
the twelve months ended June 30, 2010, including Moody's standard
analytical adjustments).  Moody's believes that the company's cash
position, availability under the company's committed revolving
credit facility and anticipated free cash flow generation will be
sufficient to finance the construction of the Shelby, North
Carolina facility.

Clearwater's Ba2 corporate family rating reflects the company's
significant position as one of the leading producers of private
label tissue products and the expectation of continued stable
operating and financial performance after the acquisition of Cellu
Tissue.  The benefits of the combined operating platform and
customer mix should help Clearwater's return and volatility
measures, but these benefits are partially offset by the
diminished financial flexibility associated with company's more
levered financial position.  With the increase in debt load and
the build-out of the company's new North Carolina tissue mill,
Clearwater is expected to generate weaker leverage and coverage
metrics over the next two years.  Despite the enhanced presence in
the more stable tissue segment, the combined company will have a
significantly greater exposure to the volatile purchased market
pulp market, which may suppress margins during periods of
cyclically high pulp prices.

Moody's views the announced acquisition of Cellu Tissue as
positive.  Clearwater's pre-acquisition credit metrics were strong
for the Ba2 rating category.  Stable operating conditions in both
the tissue and packaging segment, as well as cash receipts from
the recent black liquor fuel tax credit has resulted in strong
liquidity and credit risk measures.  With the Cellu Tissue
acquisition, Moody's expect the company will be able to maintain
leverage (adjusted debt to EBITDA) at or below 3.5x and retain
cash flow to adjust debt close to 20% over the next 12 to 18
months.  The acquisition should provide Clearwater the ability to
decrease its dependence on a few large customers and partially
offset the company's risks associated with operating a limited
number of mill sites.  It will further supplement Clearwater's
national sales footprint with a national manufacturing base that
should provide significant logistical improvements through
shipping and transportation synergies.  Partially offsetting these
positives, Clearwater's financial leverage is expected to increase
and Clearwater's liquidity will decline as cash on hand is used to
partially fund the acquisition and finance the construction of the
North Carolina tissue mill.  In addition, the acquisition is
expected to significantly increase the company's exposure to the
volatile purchased market pulp market.  The acquisition is
expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2010 and is subject to
customary closing conditions.  Assuming the transaction closes as
anticipated, Cellu Tissue's existing working capital facility and
senior secured notes will likely be repaid and all of Moody's
ratings of that entity withdrawn.

The stable ratings outlook reflects Moody's expectations that
Clearwater will be able to sustain acceptable credit protection
metrics for its rating given the company's liquidity, leverage and
stable product offering.

The SGL-2 liquidity rating indicates good liquidity supported with
approximately $125 million in cash (post acquisition of Cellu
Tissue and related financing), unused committed lines of
$123 million (through a $125 million revolving credit facility
that matures in November 2012) and Moody's expectations of
approximately $60 million of cash burn over the next four quarters
after the acquisition closes as the company builds its new North
Carolina tissue facility.

Moody's last rating action was on September 16, 2010, when the
company ratings were put on review following the company's
announcement that it had signed a definitive agreement to acquire
Cellu Tissue.

Headquartered in Spokane Washington, Clearwater is a producer of
bleached paperboard for the high-end segment of the packaging
industry and a leading producer of private label tissue products
sold in grocery stores in the United States.  The company had
revenues of approximately $1.3 billion (LTM June 30, 2010) of
which approximately 57% was from the company's pulp and paperboard
segment and 43% was from the consumer products segment.


CMQ RESOURCES: Seeking Forbearance From Matco Capital
-----------------------------------------------------
CMQ Resources Inc. said it is attempting to negotiate a
forbearance agreement with Matco Capital Ltd. and is exploring
other financing alternatives.  There can be no assurances that any
forbearance agreement will be concluded.  If a forbearance
agreement is reached, CMQ said the terms may be punitive to the
Company and its shareholders.

At CMQ's Annual and Special Meeting of Shareholders on January 19,
2010, shareholders failed to approve an Amended Funding Agreement,
on a "majority of the minority" basis, as required by the TSX
Venture Exchange and applicable securities regulations.  As a
result of the failure of this proposal, CMQ is in default under
its existing funding agreement with Matco and does not have any
source of capital to continue its operations.  CMQ is currently
indebted to Matco for approximately $2,350,000, including unpaid
interest.  Matco has the contractual right to enforce its security
over all of CMQ's assets, including all of CMQ's exploration
properties.

CMQ's directors have not made a filing under the Companies'
Creditors Arrangement Act because obtaining financing to fund a
CCAA process is remote given the exploratory nature of CMQ
business and the uncertain value of its assets.

Based in Calgary, Alberta, CMQ Resources Inc. (TSX-V: NV) --

Red Canyon sediment-hosted gold project in Eureka County, NV. In
July and August 2010, Montezuma Mines Inc., a wholly owned
subsidiary of CMQ, completed an eight hole, 11,260 ft (3,433 m)
reverse-circulation drilling program at Red Canyon.


COLLINS REAL ESTATE: To Liquidate Under Chapter 7
-------------------------------------------------
The Washington Post reports that Collins Real Estate Enterprise
LLC in Fort Washington, Maryland, commenced Chapter 7 liquidation
proceedings (Bankr. D. Md. Case No. 10-32835) on October 5.  The
Company filed the petition Pro se.  It estimated $50,001 to
$100,000 in assets and $100,001 to $500,000 in debts.  Advanta
Bank, owed $20,942, is the Company's largest unsecured creditors.


COLTS RUN: Can Use PNC Bank's Cash Collateral Until December
------------------------------------------------------------
Colts Run, L.L.C., obtained interim authorization from the Hon.
Pamela S. Hollis of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern
District of Illinois to extend the use of PNC Bank, National
Association's cash collateral until December 2010.

As reported by the TCR on August 19, 2010, the Debtor obtained
interim authorization from the Court to use the cash collateral
until mid-September.

Since May, the Court has entered four interim orders allowing the
Debtor to use cash collateral in accordance with a budget.  A copy
of the latest budget is available for free at:

          http://bankrupt.com/misc/COLTS_RUN_budget.pdf

In exchange for using the cash collateral, the Debtor will grant
PNC replacement liens.  To the extent the adequate protection of
the interests of PNC in the collateral proves insufficient, the
Debtor will grant PNC an allowed claim in the amount of any
insufficiency.

The Debtor will deliver to PNC a weekly variance report by
Wednesday of the following week.

The Court has set a final hearing for December 2, 2010, at
11:00 a.m. on the Debtor's request to be allowed to use the cash
collateral.

Lake Forest, Illinois-based Colts Run, LLC, owns and operates a
residential apartment project located in Lexington, Kentucky,
known as Colts Run Apartments.  The Company filed for Chapter 11
protection on April 23, 2010 (Bankr. N.D. Ill. Case No. 10-18071).
David K. Welch, Esq., at Crane Heyman Simon Welch & Clar, assists
the Company in its restructuring effort.  The Company estimated
its assets and debts at $10 million to $50 million as of the
Petition Date.


COLTS RUN: Hearing on PNC Request for Trustee Moved to Dec. 2
-------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Illinois
will continue on December 2, 2010, at 11:00 a.m. the hearing on
the motion to appoint a Chapter 11 trustee in the case of Colts
Run, LLC.  The hearing will be held at Courtroom 644, 219 South
Dearborn, Chicago, Illinois.

As reported by the TCR on July 2, 2010, secured creditor PNC Bank,
National Association, sought for the appointment of a Chapter 11
trustee, citing that the Debtor (a) failed to pay real estate
taxes; (b) withdrew funds from the security deposit accounts;
(c) failed to make any payment on account of its indebtedness to
PNC from February 1, through the petition date; and (d) made a
distribution to holders of equity interests.  As reported by the
TCR on August 24, 2010, the Court continued until September 14,
2010, at 10:30 a.m., the hearing on the motion to appoint a
Chapter 11 trustee.

The Court will also hear the Debtor's motion for "bad faith"
designation against PNC Bank.  The Debtor claims that the Bank
acted in bad faith in casting certain votes on the Plan.  The
Debtor asks the Court to disqualify the bad faith votes.

The Bank is asserting senior liens on the Colts Run Apartments as
well as against the rents generated at the property.  In August
2010, the Bank filed a claim in this Chapter 11 case in an amount
not less than $23,171,999.70. On the face of the claim, the Bank
asserts that the value of the secured claim isn't less than
$17 million.  "Therefore, the Bank believes that it is an
undersecured creditor," the Debtor says.

The Debtor asserts that the value of the Property as of the
Petition Date is $25 million.  Due to, among other things,
increased occupancy at the Property, the value of the Property
hasn't declined during the course of the Debtor's Chapter 11 case.

Since the Petition Date and pursuant to four interim cash
collateral court orders, the Debtor has made monthly contract
interest payments to the Bank for the period May 24, 2010, through
August 18, 2010, in the aggregate amount of $158,564.96.  The
Bank's secured interests in and to the Property are adequately
protected, the Debtor claims.

According to the Debtor, the Bank has opposed on virtually every
significant issue in the Debtor's Chapter 11 case and has taken
action to impede a successful reorganization by the Debtor.  The
Bank has filed multiple objections to the Debtor's use of cash
collateral, opposed the payment of fees to the management company
retained by the Debtor, objected to necessary capital expenditures
for the Property, filed a motion to appoint a Chapter 11 Trustee,
sought to vacate an interim cash collateral court order that it
had consented to days earlier, objected to the reorganization plan
within days of it having been filed by the Debtor and acquired
several small claims of certain unsecured creditors for the sole
purpose of preventing confirmation of the Plan.

On August 3, 2010, the Debtor filed the Plan and, on August 6,
2010, filed its supporting Disclosure Statement.  The Plan
provides for the payment of 100% of all creditors' claims plus
interest.  The Plan provides that the Bank's claim is fully
secured and will be paid in the same manner as required by the
underlying loan documents with a balloon payment of all remaining
amounts due to the Bank on the fifth anniversary of confirmation
of the Plan.

As of the close of the balloting on the Plan, only the Bank had
cast ballots rejecting the Plan.  All other voting creditors have
voted in favor of the Plan.

The Bank solicited certain creditors of the Debtor, but not all
creditors of the Debtor, to acquire the creditors' claims.
"Notably, the Bank did not solicit the acquisition of all
creditors' claims in this Chapter 11 case.  The solicitation by
the Bank offered the solicited creditor an immediate purchase of
its claim for 90% of the amount of such claim and did not
reference or disclose that the Debtor had filed the Plan which
provided for the payment of 105% of the amount of such claim or
that the Ballot Package relating to the Plan had been mailed," the
Debtor claims.

As a result of these claim transfers, the Bank cast ballots
rejecting the Plan for the claims.  "Creditors other than the Bank
and those creditors having sold their claims to the Bank at a
discount, overwhelmingly voted to accept the Plan," the Debtor
says.

The Debtor states that when questioned about the Bank's attempts
at acquiring creditors' claims in this Chapter 11 case, Jason
Rockwell of the Bank stated that the purpose of the acquisition of
certain claims in this Chapter 11 case was solely to prevent
confirmation of the Plan.

CONSTAR INTERNATIONAL: To Close Plants, Cut Jobs
------------------------------------------------
Constar International Inc. on Friday said it is consolidating
plant operations, specifically closing its Orlando, Florida and
Kansas City, Kansas facilities, as well as taking salaried
headcount reductions in its corporate ranks.  In total,
approximately 250 employees are affected by these actions.

"In light of volume declines and in an effort to better serve our
customers, we concluded that consolidating plant operations would
have a meaningful impact," stated Grant Beard, Constar's President
and CEO.  "Decisions like these are not taken lightly, however, as
they have impact on our employees and their families. In this
case, the Orlando and Kansas City plant employees have been an
important part of Constar's heritage, and we thank all of them for
their time and dedication."

In connection with the restructuring actions, the Company expects
to incur total pre-tax restructuring charges of approximately
$7 million to $10 million with approximately $6 million expected
to be recorded in the fourth quarter of 2010 and the remainder to
be recorded over the next several subsequent quarters.  The total
charges include (i) an estimated $5 million related to contract
termination costs, (ii) an estimated $1 million related to
employee severance and other termination benefits, and (iii) an
estimated $3 million of other associated costs.  In addition the
Company expects to record total accelerated depreciation and other
non-cash charges of approximately $18 million with approximately
$15 million recorded in the fourth quarter of 2010 and the
remainder to be recorded in 2011.  The majority of the
restructuring actions are expected to be completed by the end of
2011.  Upon completing these actions, the Company estimates annual
cost savings of approximately $22 million.

The Orlando facility is expected to close at the end of this year,
while the Kansas City plant is expected to close in the first
quarter of 2011.  Customers of these plants will be served by
other Constar plants without interruption in supply, quality or
service.

operations in the United States, Canada, Costa Rica, Guam, Mexico,
New Zealand and Puerto Rico.

The Company's balance sheet for June 30, 2010, showed
$296.6 million in total assets, $409.5 million in total
liabilities, and a stockholders' deficit of $112.9 million.

Denny's carries "B2" corporate family and probability of default
ratings from Moody's Investors Service.

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter on Sept. 15, Standard
and Poor's affirmed Denny's Corp.'s corporate credit rating at
'B+'.


DRESSER INC: GE Deal Won't Affect Moody's 'B2' Corp. Rating
-----------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service said that the proposed acquisition of
Dresser, Inc., by General Electric Company (GE, Aa2, stable
outlook) does not immediately impact Dresser's B2 Corporate Family
Rating, the B2 senior secured loan rating, or the B3 senior
secured second lien rating.  The closing is expected promptly
after receiving regulatory approval.

The closing of the acquisition will trigger a change of control
under the secured credit agreements and Moody's expect this will
result in a repayment of the loans.  At that time, Moody's will
withdraw all of Dresser's ratings.  If the debt remains
outstanding, Moody's will re-evaluate Dresser's ratings in light
of its ownership by GE.

Dresser's B2 Corporate Family Rating is based on the company's
very high leverage ratio, offset by its scale and leading market
positions around the world.  The company's credit profile benefits
from its large installed base which drives recurring service
revenues and from the low maintenance capital expenditure
requirements.

Dresser, Inc., provides equipment and services to the global
onshore and offshore energy infrastructure and oilfield equipment
markets, particularly conventional and advanced equipment,
systems, and services for oil and natural gas production,
transmission, and distribution; natural gas-fired power
generation; and retail fueling.

The last rating action on Dresser, Inc., was on September 16,
2008, when Moody's affirmed Dresser, Inc.'s ratings (B2 Corporate
Family Rating) and changed the rating outlook to stable from
negative.

EPICEPT CORPORATION: Receives Nasdaq Listing Notices
----------------------------------------------------
EpiCept Corporation has received two letters from the Nasdaq

Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), EpiCept has been
provided a period of 180 calendar days, or until April 4, 2011, to

In the event that EpiCept does not regain compliance with the
minimum bid price rule by April 4, 2011, Nasdaq will determine
whether EpiCept meets the initial listing criteria, with the
exception of bid price, for The Nasdaq Capital Market and, if it
does, EpiCept will be granted an additional compliance period of
180 calendar days.

The second letter from Nasdaq states that EpiCept is not in
compliance with the continued listing requirements of The Nasdaq
Capital Market because the market value of EpiCept's listed
securities has fallen below $35 million for 30 consecutive
business days (pursuant to Listing Rule 5550(b)(2)).

price additional compliance period, or if EpiCept does not regain
compliance with the market value standard by April 4, 2011,
EpiCept will have the right to appeal a determination to delist
EpiCept's securities.  EpiCept's securities would remain listed on
The Nasdaq Capital Market until the completion of the appeal
process.

FORBES ENERGY: Moody's Upgrades Corp. Family Rating to 'Caa1'
-------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service upgraded Forbes Energy Services LLC's
Corporate Family Rating and senior secured notes rating to Caa1
from Caa2.  The outlook was changed from negative to stable.

                        Ratings Rationale

"Forbes earnings have improved and Moody's expect that to continue
into 2011," commented Pete Speer, Moody's Vice-President.
"However, the company's tight liquidity raises concerns about
Forbes' ability to fund the working capital investment that comes
with increasing revenues."

Following a deep and surprisingly prolonged earnings downturn,
Forbes adjusted EBITDA significantly increased in the second
quarter of 2010 due to higher activity levels and improved pricing
power.  Moody's expect earnings to continue to modestly improve in
the second half of 2010 and into 2011.  Forbes is benefiting from
attractive natural gas liquids and crude oil prices and the
growing development of the Eagle Ford Shale along with continued
Permian Basin activity in its home markets in South and West
Texas.

Over the past year, Forbes has replaced its revolving credit
facility with first priority notes, issued equity and preferred
stock to meet its cash requirements.  The company had only
$16.5 million of cash at June 30, 2010 and no committed credit
facilities to meet its liquidity needs.  Forbes used $12.6 million
of cash in operating activities during the first half of this year
as the sequential increases in earnings were more than offset by
working capital funding.  The consumption of cash in operating
activities declined significantly in the second quarter of 2010,
but the company could face challenges funding its earnings
recovery given its tight liquidity.

If Forbes significantly increases its liquidity and sustains
EBITDA at levels that reduce its Debt/EBITDA below 5x, then the
ratings could be upgraded to B3.  A significant decrease in cash
balances from current levels or an unexpected decline in EBITDA
could result in a negative outlook or a ratings downgrade.

The Caa1 senior secured notes rating reflects both the overall
probability of default of Forbes, to which Moody's assigns a PDR
of Caa2 (raised from Caa3), and a loss given default of LGD 3 (34%
changed from 38%).  The senior secured notes are effectively
second lien to the $20 million first priority notes outstanding.
The size of this priority claim is not sufficient to result in a
notching of the senior secured notes ratings under Moody's Loss
Given Default Methodology.  Therefore the notes are rated the same
as the company's CFR.

Forbes' large fleet of workover rigs is relatively new, with
nearly all being built within the last four years.  This provides
good collateral coverage for the senior secured notes, although
this still relatively weak demand environment will adversely
affect their valuations.  Consequently, Moody's used a 65%
recovery rate when determining loss given default estimates for
the approximately $192.5 million of senior secured notes due 2015
that remain outstanding.

Forbes Energy Services LLC is an oilfield services company based
in Alice, Texas and is a wholly owned subsidiary of Forbes Energy
Services Ltd.


FORD MOTOR: Moody's Raises Corporate Family Rating to 'Ba2'
-----------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service raised the Corporate Family Rating of
Ford Motor Company to Ba2 from B1.  Other ratings that were raised
include Probability of Default to Ba2 from B1; senior secured
credit facility to Baa3 from Ba1; senior unsecured to Ba3 from B2;
and, preferred stock to B1 from B3.  In a related action, Moody's
also raised the CFR and senior unsecured ratings of Ford Motor
Credit Company LLC, FCE Bank Plc, and Ford Credit Canada Limited
to Ba2 from Ba3.  The rating outlook for Ford and Ford Credit is
stable.

                        Ratings Rationale

The Ford upgrade reflects a repositioning of the rating based on
operating performance which has significantly exceeded Moody's
expectations during the first half of 2010.  Moreover, Moody's
believe that the company is well positioned to continue generating
strong earnings and cash flow through 2011, and to further
strengthen its balance sheet.  Ford's ability to achieve this
progress will be supported by the much healthier industry
fundamentals that have resulted from the extensive restructuring
of the US automotive sector during the past two years, and by
Ford's highly competitive product portfolio.

The upgrade of Ford Credit's ratings is based upon the upgrade of
Ford's ratings.  Ford's improved credit profile has positive
implications for Ford Credit, in terms of its asset quality and
profitability measures, and its access to funding.  Moody's noted
that the rating action also resulted in the elimination of the
one-notch rating differential that had previously existed between
the Ford and Ford Credit CFRs.  In Moody's view, the risks
associated with Ford Credit's liquidity profile are a constraint
on its rating at the current rating level.

The sustainability of Ford's improving performance is supported by
the extensive restructuring that has taken place in the US auto
sector.  Key elements of this restructuring have been the massive
head-count reductions that lowered fixed costs and eliminated
excess capacity, and the implementation of a new UAW contract that
discontinued the JOBs bank program and freed OEMs of retiree
health care obligations.  This has resulted in a much healthier
and commercially viable business environment for domestic OEMs.

An additional factor contributing to the sustainability of Ford's
performance is the highly competitive position of its existing
vehicle portfolio, and the robustness of its new product pipeline.
During the first half of 2010, Ford's earning and cash flow
generation significantly exceeded Moody's expectations, largely
due to the competitiveness of its product portfolio.  In addition,
Ford has been at the forefront of embracing the more disciplined
business practices made possible by the restructuring of the US
auto sector.

Moody's estimates that Ford's North American breakeven level has
declined by approximately 45% to 1.8 million units from
3.4 million units during the 2007 -2008 period.  This shift
dimensions the significant degree of improvement in the company's
business model.

Bruce Clark, senior vice president with Moody's, said, "It's
important to realize how significantly the US industry has been
reshaped.  The restructuring is enabling US OEMs to move away from
the dysfunctional business practices that plagued them for
decades.  Domestic auto companies are now making much more
rational decisions with respect to production levels, pricing, and
incentives."

Clark went on to say, "At the same time that the industry's
business practices have become more disciplined, Ford is coming to
market with an exceptionally strong product portfolio.  The
combination of these two factors are supporting a business model
for Ford that is more robust, more profitable, and more
sustainable than Moody's had expected."

The Moody's analyst finally noted that, "We think that the two-
notch upgrade to Ba2 more appropriately positions Ford relative to
other automotive issuers."

Commenting on Ford's finance arm, Moody's senior analyst Mark
Wasden said "Ford Credit's reliance on confidence-sensitive
wholesale funding and high encumbered asset levels constrains
their credit strength, in relation to the credit improvements
observed at Ford.  Furthermore, Moody's expect that Ford Credit
will eventually increase its leverage, reducing on-balance sheet
cash liquidity by increasing dividends to Ford.  These limiting
factors, together with Ford Credit's strategic importance to and
implicit support from Ford, will be important rating
considerations in any future rating actions for Ford Credit.

The stable outlook reflects expectations for continued progress
during the next two years.  It also recognizes the challenges the
company may face through 2011 and beyond.  These include the
expiration of the current UAW contract in September of 2011, and
the risk that Ford will be selected by the union for pattern
bargaining due to non-strike provisions in the contracts with
General Motors and Chrysler.  Ford will also have to contend with
the possibility of softer-than-expected demand in the US and
European markets; the need to expand its modest position in the
strategically important Asian markets; the growing competitive
threat from Korean manufacturers in the US; and, the possibility
of an erosion in the operating disciplines currently being pursued
by domestic OEMs.

Ford's SGL-2 Speculative Grade Liquidity rating reflects the
increasing size and predictability of the company's free cash
generation, its $22 billion in cash balances at June 30, and its
$3 billion in availability under an $8 billion committed credit
facility at June 30th.  These liquidity sources exceed $25 billion
and provide strong coverage for any cash requirements that may
arise during the coming twelve months.  The largest of these
requirements is to fund intra-month working capital requirements
that Moody's estimates to be approximately $7 to $8 billion.
These requirements reduce Ford's gross liquidity position of about
$25 billion, to a net available liquidity position of
approximately $18 billion.  Notwithstanding this very strong
liquidity position, Moody's notes the possibility that Ford may
have to contend with challenging UAW negotiations during late
2011, and with the attendant risk that a strike could result in a
considerable cash burn.  This contingent risk increases the need
for Ford to maintain an exceptionally strong liquidity position
leading up to these negotiations.

The one-notch upgrade of the secured credit facility to Baa3
despite the two-notch upgrade of the CFR, reflects the uncertainty
surrounding the priority in bankruptcy that might be experienced
by Ford's $12 billion (at December 2009) unfunded pension
liability.

Due to the prospective nature of the two-notch upgrade to Ba2, and
the risks associated with UAW negotiations during 2011, a further
upgrade over the next twelve months is not likely.

A material delay or shortfall in achieving the operational or
financial progress anticipated in the Ba2 could result in pressure
on the rating.  These expectations include continued generation of
strong automotive cash flow, further reductions in debt, and
strong market acceptance of newly-launched vehicles.  The rating
also anticipates that Ford will remain on track to deliver credit
metrics approximating these for fiscal 2011: EBIT/interest
approaching 3.5x (compared with 2.7x for the LTM through June
2010); debt/EBITDA approximating 3.0x (4.1x for the LTM through
June 2010); retained cash flow/debt near 30% ( 21% for the LTM
through June 2010); and an EBITA margin of about 6% (5.2% for the
LTM through June 2010).

Should Ford Credit improve its funding mix to include a much
higher percentage of unsecured debt, thereby decreasing encumbered
asset levels and strengthening backup liquidity, the firm could
improve its prospects for future ratings upgrades, if Ford's
ratings are also upgraded, Moody's said.

FRAZIER WINERY: Creditors' Meeting Continued to November 5
----------------------------------------------------------
Jennifer Huffman, writing for Napa Valley Register, reports on
October 8, the bankruptcy court held a creditors' meeting for
Frazier Winery LLC.  The next meeting for the bankruptcy is
scheduled for November 5.

Frazier Winery filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection (Bankr.
N.D. Calif. Case No. 10-13509) on September 10, 2010.  Judge Alan
Jaroslovsky presides over the case.  Michael C. Fallon, Esq.,
serves as bankruptcy counsel.  The Debtor scheduled $2,614,282 in
assets and $789,251 in debts.

Willard H. Frazier, managing member, a retired airline pilot,
founded Frazier Winery in 1995.  The winery sells about 3,000
cases per year.

According to Napa Valley Register, in late August, Vintage Capital
successfully sued Mr. Frazier, Frazier Winery and Lupine Hill
Winery for approximately $700,000 in unpaid loans.  Peter Bertran,
Esq., attorney for Vintage Capital, said winery inventory was to
be given to Vintage Capital to pay off the loans, but the
bankruptcy filing halted the exchange.  Vintage Capital is also
one of three lenders seeking to foreclose on the Frazier winery
property and Mr. Frazier's personal residence, Mr. Bertran said.


FREDERICK BERG: Waives $70,000-Fee Accord with Meridian Trustee
---------------------------------------------------------------
Rami Grunbaum, writing for The Seattle Times, reports that Mark
Calvert, the trustee in the bankruptcy cases of nine Meridian
Mortgage funds, told the Bankruptcy Court Thursday he withdrew a
proposal to pay Meridian Group owner Frederick Darren Berg $70,000
to help sift through the financial rubble of his mortgage
investment funds' $200 million bankruptcy.  According to the
report, Mr. Berg has advised Mr. Calvert that Mr. Berg no longer
wishes to receive a consulting fee from these estates.

The report says the U.S. Justice Department objected to the
proposal.  In a meeting with Meridian Mortgage creditors earlier
in the week, Mr. Calvert said federal officials had "taken a firm
position" against the proposed payment.

The Seattle Times notes Mr. Berg is the focus of a federal grand
jury for operating what became a massive Ponzi scheme, according
to the trustee.  Nine Meridian Mortgage funds that purportedly
invested in real estate are in Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

Mr. Berg's personal assets - including homes and several luxury-
coach transportation companies doing business as MTR Western --
are in a separate Chapter 11 case.

The Seattle Times says Mr. Berg still stands to receive a $50,000
payment for cooperating in the personal bankruptcy.  The trustee
in that case, Diana Carey, said Friday her agreement terminates
Mr. Berg's employment at all Meridian companies and prevents him
from competing with the companies or soliciting their employees or
customers, so it's not simply a payment for assistance in
unraveling the finances of his companies.

Unlike Mr. Calvert, "I have not received any concerns" from
federal investigators, she said, according to the report.

The report notes both trustees have said they proposed paying Mr.
Berg because his assistance would save time and money in
uncovering all the bankruptcy assets and understanding their
finances.

                     About Frederick Berg

Frederick Darren Berg filed for Chapter 11 on July 27, 2010
(Bankr. W.D. Wash. Case No. 10-18668), estimating assets of
more than $10 million and liabilities between $1 million and
$10 million.  The filing came after lawyers for one group of
investors, armed with a court order and accompanied by sheriff's
deputies, began seizing personal possessions at Mr. Berg's Mercer
Island home and downtown Seattle condo.


FRIENDFINDER NETWORKS: S&P Assigns 'B' Corporate Credit Rating
--------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services assigned its preliminary 'B'
corporate credit rating to Boca Raton, Florida-headquartered
FriendFinder Networks Inc., owner and operator of several adult-
oriented and general interest social networking sites.  The rating
outlook is stable.

At the same time, S&P assigned FriendFinder's proposed
$296 million secured first-lien notes due 2013 S&P's preliminary
issue-rating of 'B' (at the same level as the 'B' corporate credit
rating on the company) with a preliminary recovery rating of '3',
indicating S&P's expectation of meaningful (50%-70%) recovery for
debtholders in the event of a payment default.

All ratings are pending Standard & Poor's review of final
transaction documentation.

"The preliminary 'B' corporate credit rating incorporates S&P's
assumption of modest subscriber growth and stable monthly/annual
subscription fees over the intermediate term," said Standard &
Poor's credit analyst Andy Liu.

Similar to most services dependent on consumer discretionary
spending, FriendFinder's subscription revenue and subscriber base
were negatively affected by the recession.  Since the first
quarter of 2010, the company has been able to increase its
subscriber base and monthly/annual subscription fees, and reduce
subscriber churn.  Some notable risks associated with the company
are significant revenue and profit contribution from one site
(AdultFriendFinder.com), high subscriber churn rate, aggressive
financial policy, and high debt leverage.  Strong EBITDA margins
and good discretionary cash flow only partially offset these
risks.

FriendFinder is an adult social networking and entertainment
company.  FriendFinder owns and operates Web sites catering to
specific interests, including social networking, live
entertainment, and video and premium services.  The company is
also the publisher of Penthouse Magazine.

GEORGIA ROOFING: Abrupt Closure Prompts State Probe
---------------------------------------------------
Eleanor Lissitzyn at 13WMAZ reports that the Governor's Office of
Consumer Affairs in Georgia said it is investigating the business
practices of Georgia Roofing and Construction, based in
Douglasville, which reportedly shut down without providing roofs
for hundreds of customers.

The report relates that Shawn Conroy with the Office of Consumer
Affairs said Friday the investigation started a few weeks ago,
after several consumers complained that they had paid for new
roofs that never were installed.

According to the report, Jamey Cooper, former office manager for
Georgia Roofing's Douglasville office, said Friday that the
company has shut down, without installing nearly 600 roofs that
customers paid for.  Ms. Cooper said company owner Shone Humphries
told her and other employees on Thursday they could take Friday
off with pay.   But on Friday, Ms. Cooper said, Ms. Humphries
called and told her not to come in Monday because the company had
shut down.  He said they planned to file for Chapter 11
bankruptcy, Ms. Cooper said.

Georgia Roofing has customers in Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee, and
South Carolina, according to Ms. Cooper.

HALCYON HOLDING: Defends Proposed Salary for Executives
-------------------------------------------------------
Halcyon Holding Group LLC is defending its request to pay each of
the two men behind the production company $12,500 a month, Dow
Jones' DBR Small Cap reports.

According to the report, in response to unsecured creditors'
recent objection to the payments, Halcyon said that the men -
Derek Anderson and Victor Kubicek - have lead the company as co-
chief executive officers since 2006 and have continued their roles
throughout the production company's bankruptcy case.  The report
relates Halcyon said in court papers Oct. 6 that Anderson and
Kubicek deserve the proposed salary, because they have assisted
Halcyon's bankruptcy professionals with pending litigation
involving the production company and are reviewing claims filed
against the business.

Also, the report notes, the two men have been at the helm as the
company negotiates a creditor-repayment plan with key parties - a
process that Halcyon said has been "complicated and extensive."

Kubicek and Anderson's work for Halcyon "is essential to this
process," Halcyon said, referring to negotiations surrounding the
creditor-repayment plan, the report adds.

                      About Halcyon Holding

Halcyon Holding acquired the Terminator franchise in 2007 for
about $25 million.  It had been working on the concept for a fifth
Terminator film when it filed for bankruptcy.

Halcyon Holding Group LLC and two affiliated companies
filed Chapter 11 petitions on Aug. 17, 2009, in Los Angeles,
California (Bankr. C.D. Calif. Case No. 09-31854).  Halcyon said
it has between $50 million and $100 million in both assets and
debts.

Halcyon filed for bankruptcy the same day it launched a court
battle with Pacificor, which provided funding for its film.
Halcyon sued Pacificor and one of its former employees. The suit
was filed after Halcyon's owners failed to make a payment demanded
by Pacificor.


HANSEN'S DAIRY: Re-opens for Business With New Owners
-----------------------------------------------------
Richard Ryman, writing for the Green Bay Press Gazette, reports
that Hansen's Dairy & Deli restaurant at 620 Gray St., in Green
Bay, Wisconsin, was slated to re-open for business Monday,
according to John Van Lanen, its new owner.  Mr. Ryman relates
previous ownership of the restaurant filed for Chapter 11
bankruptcy protection in May 2009.

"Chapter 11 is for companies seeking protection from creditors
while they reorganize the business.  Whatever the reorganization
was -- the owners refused to talk about their business -- it
didn't work and the final location closed earlier this year," Mr.
Ryman relates.


HARRISBURG, PA: Council Advertises for Bankruptcy Lawyers
---------------------------------------------------------
Dow Jones' Daily Bankruptcy Review reports that the city council
of Harrisburg, Pa., on Friday advertised for attorneys to offer
counsel on bankruptcy and the state's oversight program for
distressed municipalities.

DBR in a separate report says a city council vote on the sale of
$4.08 million in short-term notes Thursday was canceled after the
city found another way to meet payroll, according to Chuck Ardo,
spokesman for Mayor Linda Thompson.

                      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 City Council of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, voted 5-2 on
September 28 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
year, and was sued by its home county Dauphin County; bond insurer
Assured Guaranty Municipal Corp., a unit of Assured Guaranty Ltd.;
and bond trustees TD Bank and M&T Bank Corp. over $19 million in
skipped bond payments.


HARRISBURG PA: Entry Into State Program May Not Cure City's Ills
----------------------------------------------------------------
Dow Jones' DBR Small Cap reports that the city of Harrisburg, Pa.,
is seeking refuge in its state's oversight program for distressed
cities, but that program is weaker than similar systems in other
states, some analysts say, and it may not help the capital city
resolve its problems in the long term.

According to the report, Pennsylvania's program, known
colloquially as Act 47 for the law that created it, aims to
stabilize municipalities under severe financial strain and set
them on a path for sustainable fiscal health.  The report relates
that it has helped 19 cities and boroughs avert bankruptcy, but 11
of them have been in the program for over a decade.

Harrisburg Mayor Linda Thompson applied for the program on Oct. 1
after months of failing to cope with the city's crushing debt load
and feuding with a bloc of council members, the report says.

The report notes the city of 47,000 almost defaulted on a
significant bond payment last month and is now struggling to make
its payroll. "At this stage, Harrisburg needs someone making
decisions and the power to abide by them," the report quoted
Howard J as saying.

HINES HORTICULTURE: To Lay Off 96 Workers; Warns of Bankruptcy
--------------------------------------------------------------
Christian Gaston, writing for The Forest Grove News-Times, reports
that Hines Nursery has informed local elected officials and state
regulators in Oregon that it may have to lay off 96 workers at its
Forest Grove location in December.  In a letter to Forest Grove
Mayor Pete Truax, Washington County Chair Andy Duyck and state
work force development officials, Hines said it is trying to
extend a line of credit and is contemplating entering Chapter 11
bankruptcy.  If those measures fail, the company might begin
layoffs as soon as this month.

Headquartered in Irvine, California, Hines Horticulture, Inc. --
http://www.hineshorticulture.com/-- operates nursery facilities
located in Arizona, California, Oregon and Texas.  Through its
affiliate, the company produces and distributes horticultural
products.

The company and its affiliate, Hines Nurseries, Inc., filed for
Chapter 11 protection on Aug. 20, 2008 (Bankr. D. Del. Lead Case
No.08-11922).  Anup Sathy, Esq., Ray C. Schrock, Esq., and Ross M.
Kwasteniet, Esq., at Kirkland & Ellis, LLP, represented the
Debtors in their restructure efforts.  Robert S. Brady, Esq., and
Edmon L. Morton, Esq., at Young, Conaway, Stargatt & Taylor,

Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors in the Debtors' case.
In its schedules, Hines Horticulture, Inc. listed total assets of
$30,068 and total debts of $218,052,380.  In its schedules, Hines
Nurseries listed total assets of $229,231,003 and total debts of
$228,698,592.

As reported by the TCR on April 15, 2009, Hines' First Amended
Joint Plan of Reorganization, with technical amendments, became
effective, and the Company emerged from Chapter 11 protection.  As
reported by the TCR, Hines won court approval of its plan on
January 28, 2009.

The reorganization plan provided for:

    -- Full payment to secured creditors on their $35.9 million in
       claims;

    -- Payment to unsecured creditors, including holders of
       $175 million in 10.25% senior notes due 2011, from 7.2% of
       future profits of NewCo, the entity created by Black
       Diamond to conduct Hines' former businesses; and

    -- Zero recovery to holders of equity interests in the
       company.

As reported by the TCR in December 2008, the Hon. Kevin J. Carey
authorized the sale of substantially all assets of Hines to an
affiliate of Black Diamond Capital LLC.  The Black Diamond unit
was declared the winning bidder when no other competing offers
were made.  The Black Diamond unit offered to pay $58 million in
cash and assume more than $45.9 million in debts.

HOWARD RIFAS: U.S. Trustee Unable to Form Creditors Committee
-------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Trustee for Region 21, notified the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Southern District of California that until further notice,
he will not appoint an official committee of unsecured creditors
in the Chapter 11 case of Howard Rifas.

Pembroke Pines, Florida-based Howard Rifas filed for Chapter 11
bankruptcy protection on June 10, 2010 (Bankr. S.D. Fla. Case No.
10-26375).  David Marshall Brown, Esq., in Ft. Lauderdale,
Florida, assists the Company in its restructuring effort.  The
Company estimated its assets at $500,001 to $1 million and
liabilities at $100 million to $500 million.


IMAGEWARE SYSTEMS: Stonefield Josephson Resigns as Accountant
-------------------------------------------------------------
Stonefield Josephson Inc., independent registered public
accounting firm of ImageWare Systems Inc., combined its practice
with Marcum LLP and began practicing in California and Hong Kong
as "MarcumStonefield, a division of Marcum LLP".

Accordingly, effective October 1, 2010, Stonefield effectively
resigned as the Company's independent registered public accounting
firm and MarcumStonefield became the Company's independent
registered public accounting firm.  This change in the Company's
independent registered public accounting firm was approved by the
Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors on October 6,
2010.

The principal accountant's reports of Stonefield on the financial
statements of the Company as of and for the years ended December
31, 2007 and December 31, 2008 did not contain any adverse opinion
or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to
uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except that
such reports of the principle accountants raised substantial
doubts about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

During the years ended December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2008
and through the effective date of the Merger, there were no
disagreements with Stonefield on any matter of accounting
principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or
auditing scope or procedure, which if not resolved to Stonefield's
satisfaction would have caused it to make reference thereto in
connection with its reports on the financial statements for such
years.  During the years ended December 31, 2007 and December 31,
2008 and through October 1, 2010, there were no reportable events
of the type described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

During the years ended December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2008 and
through October 1, 2010, the effective date of the Merger, the
Company did not consult with Marcum LLP or MarcumStonefield with
respect to any of:

   i) the application of accounting principles to a specified
      transaction, either completed or proposed;

  ii) the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the
      Company's financial statements; or

iii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement or,
      except as described below, an event of the type described in
      Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

As previously reported in its Report on Form 8-K filed August 16,
2010, the Company filed its Forms 10-Q for the quarterly periods
ended March 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009 on April 29, 2010 and
May 27, 2010 respectively.  Subsequently, on August 2, 2010, the
Company received comments from its independent registered public
accounting firm which led to the Company's review and ultimate
conclusion that the historical financial statements in the Forms
10-Q for the three and six months ended March 31 and June 30,
2009, respectively, require restatement to properly record the
classification of the conversion feature embedded in the Preferred
Stocks and certain common stock warrants as liabilities measured
at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in earnings in
each subsequent reporting period and recording a cumulative-effect
adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings as of
January 1, 2009.

On August 10, 2010, management of the Company determined that the
Company's financial statements for the three and six months ended
March 31 and June 30, 2009, respectively, which are included in
its Forms 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2009 and June 30,
2009, should no longer be relied upon due to an error in such
financial statements with respect to the accounting for certain
derivative features of the Company's Series C and D Preferred
Stock and certain warrants which were previously recorded as
equity instruments in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles in effect through December 31, 2008.

The Company has performed an assessment of the conversion features
of the Preferred Stocks and warrants and has concluded that these
instruments are within the scope of EITF 07-05, "Determining
Whether an Instrument is Indexed to an Entity's Own Stock"
effective January 1, 2009 due to these instruments containing
anti-dilution provisions which require adjustments to the
conversion price of the Preferred Stocks and to the exercise price
of the warrants in the event the Company issues common stock or
securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock at a
price per share lower than the conversion price of the Preferred
Stocks or the exercise  price of the warrants.  ASC 815 outlines
new guidance for instruments indexed to an entity's own stock and
the resulting liability or equity classification based on that
conclusion.

ASC 815 should have been adopted by the Company as of January 1,
2009. After discussion with the Audit Committee of the Board of
Directors and the Company's independent registered public
accounting firm, management has determined to file amended Forms
10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009 as
soon as practicable, which will contain restated financial
statements reflecting the corrections made in response to these
accounting errors.

Based upon preliminary information, which has not been reviewed by
its independent registered public accounting firm, the Company
expects:

   * to record a derivative liability as of January 1, 2009
     through a charge to Retained Earnings for the effect of the
     cumulative adjustment of the fair value of the derivatives as
     of that date;

   * to reflect a change in fair value of derivatives as of March
     31, 2009 through a non-cash charge to expense; and

   * to record a change in fair value of derivatives as of June
     30, 2009 through a non-cash charge to expense.

The impact of these non-operating adjustments will result in non-
cash charges to be reflected below loss from operations in the
Company's statement of operations and will have no effect on the
Company's cash, operating income or loss or cash flows for the
three and six months periods ended March 31, 2009 and June 30,
2009, respectively.  Future periods may be subject to significant
changes in the fair value of these derivatives instruments.

INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY: Court Says Plan Outline Insufficient
-----------------------------------------------------------
The Hon. Ronald H. Sargis of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Eastern District of California disapproved the Disclosure
Statement explaining Innovative Technology Business Park, LLC's
Plan of Reorganization.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on July 30, 2010,
the Plan provides that Kristen E. Pigman, the receiver, and the
Chapter 11 trustee, will be discharged from their duties on the
effective date of the Plan.  The Debtor will make all monthly
installments from rental income generated from the real property.
The lump sum payment on the secured claim of Bank of America will
be paid by the refinancing of the real property on or before
March 1, 2014.

                         Treatment of Claims

The holder of Class 1 and 3 secured claim of Bank of America will
receive on account of the claim regular installments and a lump
sum payment in cash of a total value, as of the effective date of
the Plan, equal to the allowed amount of the claim.

Holders Class 2 unsecured claim of Spyres Way Group, and Class 4
Non-consensual secured claims, will receive regular installments
in the same manner as if the claim was a general unsecured claim.
The deed of trust held by the holder of the claim will be
discharged on the effective date of the Plan.

Class 5 general unsecured claims holders each will receive, in
deferred cash payments, a sum equal to 40% of its allowed claim.
Holders of the claims in this class will receive collectively
$10,000 per month until March 1, 2011, at which all unpaid sums
will be paid in full.

The members will retain their interest in the Debtor

                      Objections to Resolve

Bank of America Leasing & Capital objected on the grounds that the
disclosure statement misidentifies it as Bank of America and that
it incorrectly describes its interest as a secured loan.  Bank of
America asserted that it owns the generator and merely leases the
generator to the Debtor.

Bank of America, N.A., objected to the Disclosure Statement on the
basis that it lacks adequate information.

INTRALINKS INC: S&P Raises Corporate Credit Rating to 'B+'
----------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said it raised its corporate
credit rating on New York City-based IntraLinks Inc. to 'B+' from
'B'.  The outlook is stable.

At the same time, S&P raised the issue-level rating on the
company's first-lien facility to 'BB' from 'B+'.  S&P revised the
recovery rating on the first-lien facility to '1' from '2'.  The
'1 recovery rating indicates very high (90%-100%) recovery in the
event of a payment default.  In addition, S&P raised the issue-
level rating on the company's second-lien secured debt to 'B-'
from 'CCC+'.  The recovery rating on the second-lien remains '6',
indicating negligible (0%-10%) recovery in the event of a payment
default.

"The rating on IntraLinks reflects S&P's view that the company's
declining, but still notable, reliance on activity in the capital
markets for a significant portion of revenue, along with
challenges of organic expansion into new enterprise markets," said
Standard & Poor's credit analyst Jennifer Pepper, "will preclude a
material improvement in its weak business profile in the near
term."  A significant recurring revenue base, stable EBITDA
margins, and a successful revenue diversification strategy provide
ratings support.


JEFFERSON COUNTY: 3 Outgoing Commissioners Threaten Bankruptcy
--------------------------------------------------------------
Barnett Wright, writing for The Birmingham News, reports that
Jefferson County Commission President Bettye Fine Collins and
Commissioners Jim Carns and Bobby Humphryes -- who, together, make
up a commission majority and all of whom will leave the commission
after its November 9 meeting -- agree that bankruptcy is actively
on the table as an option.

Mr. Wright reports that the commissioners are now threatening to
move the county into bankruptcy because negotiations with
creditors have stalled since a court-appointed receiver seized the
county sewer department last month.  The commissioners say they
may resort to bankruptcy before they leave office November 9 if
they feel creditors who own the county's $3.2 billion sewer debt
are trying to wring too much money out of the sewer system and its
ratepayers.

Mr. Wright also reports that even Commissioner Shelia Smoot, who
has opposed bankruptcy and will also leave the commission next
month, said Friday that the bankruptcy option is not off the
table.

Mr. Wright notes that if the commissioners filed bankruptcy, it
would cover all county operations and debt, not just the $3.2
billion owed on its sewer debt.  Mr. Wright says the move likely
would immediately halt all actions, including the receiver's
control of the sewer system, at least for the time being.

John S. Young was appointed as receiver for the system on
September 22.

Creditors appear to be waiting for "manna from the receiver"
rather than working toward a deal, Ms. Collins said, according to
the report.

The report also notes Commissioner George Bowman, the only sitting
commissioner still in the running to keep his seat after November,
said bankruptcy is always a "last resort."  "That card, until it's
played, is always an option," he said. "I am not in favor of
bankruptcy and never have been.  I hope that we can find a
solution short of bankruptcy and that position has not changed."

The Birmingham News relates the officials said the county has
presented its proposed settlement to Wall Street creditors
including investment bank JPMorgan Chase & Co. and bondholders.
While JPMorgan owns a majority of the county warrants, any
settlement has to be approved by the other banks, such as Lloyds
Bank of Scotland, State Street Bank of Boston, Societe Generale of
Paris and the Bank of Nova Scotia in Canada.

According to the report, Jeffrey Cohen, a partner at Patton Boggs,
who has followed Jefferson County's financial crisis, said the
threat of bankruptcy is a key negotiating tool for the county.

"You're asking the creditors to take an almost 50 percent
haircut," Birmingham News quotes Mr. Cohen as saying.  "They're
not going to do that willingly. I think, ultimately, there's going
to have to be a plan of reorganization in Chapter 9 to write that
debt down."

According to the report, Mr. Cohen said the county may have
already taken a first step toward bankruptcy.

"One of the elements under the bankruptcy code is that the county
negotiate, before the filing, with the creditors and try to
arrange a plan with the creditors to repay the debt," he said.
"I'm not so sure the creditors are really against it in the end.

"They've been dealing with this. I'm sure they are frustrated.
They would rather start getting regular payments and move on to
the next problem."

                      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 $3.2 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.

According to the Troubled Company Reporter on September 24, 2010,
Dow Jones Newswires' Kelly Nolan said Alabama Circuit Court Judge
Albert Johnson named John S. Young Jr. LLC as receiver for the
sewer system.

                           *     *     *

In August 2010, Standard & Poor's Ratings Services withdrew its
underlying rating on Jefferson County, Ala.'s series 2001B general
obligation warrants.  S&P lowered the SPUR to 'D' from 'B' on
Sept. 24, 2008, due to the county's failure to make a principal
payment on the bank warrants due Sept. 15, 2008, in accordance
with the terms of the Standby Warrant Purchase Agreement.

The county and the banks entered into a forbearance agreement that
effectively delayed payments due under the SWPA.

LESLIE CONTROLS: Receives Asbestos Claimants Vote for Plan
----------------------------------------------------------
CIRCOR International, Inc. said  that its wholly owned subsidiary,
Leslie Controls, Inc., has obtained the asbestos claimant votes
necessary for approval of its pre-negotiated Chapter 11
reorganization plan, which is a key step in the process toward
Leslie's emergence from bankruptcy.

For the plan to be confirmed and affirmed by the courts, the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code requires a formal vote of approval by at least 75
percent of current asbestos claimants.  The solicitation process
for this approval was completed on September 27, 2010, and on
October 8, 2010 the balloting agent tabulating the votes filed a
declaration with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of
Delaware stating that the percentage cast in favor of the plan
significantly exceeded this requirement.

CIRCOR's Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer Bill
Higgins said, "This vote of confidence is an important milestone
in our effort to permanently eliminate the expenses and risks
associated with Leslie's asbestos liability. The proceedings in
the District and U.S. Bankruptcy Courts have continued to move
forward during the solicitation period for claimant approval.
Although objections have been filed by several of Leslie's
insurance carriers, we believe these objections are without merit.
Consequently, we are continuing to target the plan's confirmation
and affirmation by the court and Leslie's emergence from
bankruptcy for the fourth quarter of 2010."

Leslie's plan of reorganization is intended to permanently resolve
the Company's asbestos liability through the creation of a trust
pursuant to Section 524(g) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. All
current and future asbestos claims against Leslie would be
channeled to the trust for review and payment, thus providing both
Leslie and CIRCOR with permanent court protection from such
claims. Leslie is continuing to conduct business as usual during
the Chapter 11 process.

LIVEMERCIAL AVIATION: U.S. Trustee Objects to Case Dismissal
------------------------------------------------------------
Teresa Auch Schultz, writing for The Post-Tribune, reports that
U.S. Trustee Nancy Gargula is challenging Valparaiso businessman
Johnny Mathis' move to end his company's bankruptcy.

According to the Post-Tribune, Mr. Mathis, who had filed for
bankruptcy protection at the beginning of the year for his
Livemercial Aviation Holdings, moved last month to end the
bankruptcy, according to a document filed in the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court in Northern Indiana.

The Post-Tribune relates that Mr. Mathis created Livemercial
Aviation so he could buy small jets and turn them into personal
luxury planes for private owners.  However, he wasn't able to sell
the company's only plane, a Dornier Model 328-300 jet, and faulted
on a $6.3 million loan to PNC Bank, owing $7.56 million at the
time of bankruptcy filing along with money to other creditors.

The Post-Tribune relates that although the bank and Mr. Mathis
eventually reached an agreement that gave him until the end of the
year to sell the plane, according to court records, PNC eventually
became concerned that Mr. Mathis wasn't fulfilling all of his
agreement and repossessed the plane.

According to the Post-Tribune, Mr. Mathis said in his most recent
court filing the plane was the company's only asset and that it
has nothing left to pay off the rest of the debts, which total
about $1.7 million.

The Post-Tribune relates Ms. Gargula balked at the contention,
pointing out that:

     -- Livemercial Aviation has several accounts with money and
        pointed to $990,000 in cash the company transferred to Mr.
        Mathis just before bankruptcy was filed; and

     -- Livemercial Aviation has about $10,000 in an e*Trade
        account and about $1.5 million the company is owed.

Ms. Gargula, the Post-Tribune says, called the $990,000 transfer
"avoidable," although Mr. Mathis claimed during a hearing the
money was for his personal use and came from yet another of his
companies, CPA Warehouse, according to her filing.

Ms. Gargula says the case should be changed to Chapter 7
bankruptcy, which would liquidate all of the company's assets.

Livemercial Aviation Holding, LLC, filed for chapter 11 protection
this year (Bankr. N.D. Ind. Case No. 10-20051).  It disclosed less
than $10 million in assets.


LIVERPOOL FOOTBALL: $476M Boston Bid Undervalues Team, Hicks Says
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Bankruptcy Law360 reports that Liverpool Football Club co-owner
Tom Hicks -- who recently unloaded the Texas Rangers -- has tried
to thwart the sale of his debt-ridden soccer team, saying the
current $476 million bid by the owners of the Boston Red Sox
dramatically undervalues the club.

Mr. Hicks, who sold the Texas Rangers in April to an ownership
group led by Hall of Fame pitcher Nolan Ryan, has said he's
leaving the world of professional sports, Law360 says.

                      About Liverpool Football

MANITOWOC CO: S&P Downgrades Corporate Credit Rating to 'B+'
------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its ratings on
Manitowoc, Wis.-based Manitowoc Co. Inc., including the CCR, to
'B+' from 'BB-'.  S&P is assigning a 'B+' issue-level rating, with
a recovery rating of '4' to Manitowoc's proposed new notes.  The
ratings on the company's remaining senior secured debt remain at
'BB-', and S&P raised the recovery rating to '1' from '2'.  The
outlook is stable.

"The downgrade reflects the prolonged difficult crane operating
environment, which has caused credit measures to deteriorate
beyond S&P's expectations for the previous rating," said Standard
& Poor's credit analyst Helena Song.  "It also reflects S&P's
expectations that, despite some stabilization, meaningful
improvements on credit measures are unlikely in the over the next
few quarters due to the extended weakness in the crane end
markets."

The ratings on Manitowoc also reflect the company's aggressive
financial risk profile, characterized by high debt levels and
aggressive financial policies, which more than offset its fair
business risk profile.  S&P expects the company's revenue to be
flat in the second half of 2010, as continuing weakness in its
crane segment offsets modest improvements in its food segment.
The stable outlook reflects S&P's expectation that Manitowoc's end
markets will continue to stabilize in 2011.  Although credit
measures will likely remain weak over the next few quarters, S&P
expects them to start improving in 2011 as crane end markets
gradually recover and the company continues to generate free cash
flow to reduce debt.  Manitowoc's cash balance, ample availability
on its revolver, and decent cash flow generation support its
adequate liquidity.

The outlook is stable.  S&P could lower the ratings on the company
if further deceleration or meaningful delay in the recovery of the
crane end markets cause continuing deterioration of credit
measures or negatively affect liquidity, for example, if FFO to
total debt appears unlikely to improve to the 10% range in 2011.
"S&P could raise the ratings if operating prospects improve
meaningfully and the company's liquidity and credit measures
support this trend.  However, S&P considers an upgrade in the near
term unlikely, because the company's currently subpar credit
protection measures limit any upgrade potential," Ms. Song added.

MERUELO MADDUX: Shareholders Plan Contemplates Executives Removal
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Charlestown Capital Advisors, LLC and Hartland Asset Management
Corporation submitted to the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Central
District of California a proposed Plan of Reorganization and an
explanatory Disclosure Statement for Meruelo Maddux Properties
Inc., amended as of September 30, 2010.

The Charlestown Plan contemplates removal of Richard Meruelo and
John Maddux from their positions with the Company, renewed focus
on leasing income-generating properties, and an infusion of not
less than $31$38 million cash on the Effective Date.  These steps,
taken together, will permit the Company to fund operating losses
in the near term while moving the Company to profitability in the
medium term.  Moreover, it will give the Company breathing room
to sell assets in a measured fashion without the need for fire
sale" dispositions of property.

A full-text copy of the amended Disclosure Statement is available
for free at:

       http://bankrupt.com/misc/MERUELOMAddux_3rdRedlineDS.pdf

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on September 29, the
three competing plans are:

  (1) The Company.

       -- The plan provides for the payment in full of all claims
          over time with interest.  The secured claims will be
          paid interest only over the term of the Plan and the
          principal balance will be paid either through the sale
          of the property securing the claim or the refinance of
          the secured debt.  PI shareholders will retain their
          shares in MMPI.  General unsecured creditors will be
          paid within 30 days after the effective date with
          interest from the Petition Date at 5% per annum.
          Holders of unsecured claims will be paid in the full
          amount of their claims over 5 years from the effective
          date.

          See http://bankrupt.com/misc/MMP_MgtPlan_091510.pdf

  (2) Lenders Legendary Investors Group No. 1 LLC and East West
      Bank.

       -- The plan's foundation is an $80 million
          recapitalization via a $5 million cash infusion by
          Legendary, conversion of about $65 million of debt to
          equity and a $10 million rights offering to holders of
          Meruelo Maddux existing common stock.  East West will
          receive 70% to 80% of the stock of the reorganized
          company.  Holders of unsecured claims will receive a
          cash payment equal to 100% of the amount of their
          allowed claims on the effective date, plus simple
          interest at 5% per annum for the period from the
          petition date through the date each allowed claim is
          paid.  Interest will be at the Federal Judgment Rate if
          the creditors vote to reject the plan.  Holders of the
          existing stock will receive 20% of the stock in the
          reorganized company.

          See http://bankrupt.com/misc/MMP_LendersPlan_091010.pdf

  (3) Existing shareholders Charlestown Capital Advisors LLC and
      Hartland Asset Management Corp.

       -- Under the plan, MMPI will receive a $31 million cash
          investment from Charleston and Hartland-led investors
          and from a rights offering made available to existing
          MMPI shareholders.  Non-insider general unsecured
          creditors will be paid in full with interest as soon as
          the plan becomes effective.  Holders of secured claims
          will receive monthly interest payments at 5.25% for four
          years with full payment on the principal balance four
          years after the effective date.  Reorganized MMPI will
          issue to existing holders of MMPI interests, if they
          elect to receive stock instead of cash, will receive
          up to 26% of the total stock of the reorganized company.
          Stockholders can also purchase up to 19% of the stock in
          an $8 million rights offering.

The Creditors Committee is recommending that creditors turn down
the management plan.  The Committee supports the lenders' plan.
The Committee noted that the lenders' plan will pay creditors in
full with interest shortly after plan confirmation while the
company plan would pay creditors in full over five years.

The Company has said that East West is taking a predatory action
by converting real estate debt into a controlling interest in a
company.  East West also appears to be proposing it use TARP money
obtained by the federal government as a part of its effort to
complete its hostile takeover of Meruelo Maddux.

                        About Meruelo Maddux

METRO-GOLDWYN-MAYER: Prepares for Possible Bankruptcy Filing
------------------------------------------------------------
American Bankruptcy Institute reports that Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer
Inc. is in the final stages of preparing a bankruptcy filing, a
move that will pare the debt of the iconic studio and place it
under the management of the two founders of rival Spyglass
Entertainment.

                     About Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer

Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, Inc., is an independent, privately held
motion picture, television, home video, and theatrical production
and Distribution Company.  The Company owns the world's largest
library of modern films, comprising approximately 4,000 titles,
and over 10,400 episodes of television programming.  An investor
consortium, comprised of Providence Equity Partners, TPG Capital,
Sony Corporation of America, Comcast Corporation, DLJ Merchant
Banking Partners and Quadrangle Group, owns MGM.

MGM is grappling with $3.7 billion in debt.  MGM has received a
series of forbearance agreements from its bondholders and lenders,
wherein the lenders extended the period during which MGM won't
have to pay principal and interest on its bank debt, including a
revolving credit facility.  The latest forbearance agreement
expires October 29.

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter on August 12, 2010,
sources told The Wall Street Journal that MGM hopes to file a
"prepackaged" bankruptcy sometime in mid-September, when the
latest waiver on debt payments expires.  J.P. Morgan Chase & Co.,
a major MGM creditor, is working on providing between $150 million
and $200 million in debtor-in-possession financing to steer the
studio through bankruptcy, one of the sources told the Journal.

MGM tried to sell itself in March 2010 but received low bids.  MGM
has hired investment bank Moelis & Company and the law firm
Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom.  In August 2009, it hired
the restructuring expert Stephen F. Cooper to help lead the
company.


MICHAEL MALKI: To File for Ch. 11 to Avoid Ice Rink Foreclosure
---------------------------------------------------------------
Drew Harwell, St. Petersburg Times staff writer, reports that
Michael Malki, the owner of the Clearwater Ice Arena, formerly
Sunblades Ice Center, said he will file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy
to stave off foreclosure and keep the rink open for business.

The Times relates Mr. Malki said bankruptcy will allow the arena
to reorganize its debt without hitting the auction block.  There
are no plans, he said, to close the rink or keep skaters off the
ice.  Mr. Malki has owned the arena since 2007.

According to the Times, Whitney National Bank last month sued to
recoup $1.7 million still owed on a defaulted mortgage loaned to
Mr. Malki in 2007.  An attorney for the bank wrote that bank
officials sought to foreclose the property and list the rink for
public sale.

According to the report, Chip Morse, Esq., who represents Mr.
Malki, said they're negotiating to keep the rink running, where it
can be most profitable.

The report relates attorneys representing the bank did not return
messages Friday.

The report says Mr. Malki also owns two gas stations in Oldsmar
and Clearwater, Florida.


MICHAEL STORES: S&P Assigns 'CCC' Rating on $800 Mil. Notes
-----------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said it assigned its 'CCC'
issue-level rating and '6' recovery rating to Irving, Texas-based
Michael Stores Inc.'s proposed $800 million 7.75% senior unsecured
notes due 2018, indicating S&P's expectation for negligible (0%-
10%) recovery in the event of a payment default.

The company intends to use the proceeds from the notes offering,
along with cash on hand or borrowings under the credit facility or
a combination of both, to repurchase its outstanding 10% senior
unsecured notes due 2014.  Upon the repayment of the 10% notes,
S&P will withdraw S&P's rating.

At the same time, S&P raised its senior secured debt rating on the
senior secured term loan tranches to 'B+' from 'B' and revised the
recovery rating to '1' from '2'.  The '1' recovery rating
indicates S&P's expectations for very high (90%-100%) recovery in
the event of a payment default.  The revision reflects an increase
in S&P's estimated enterprise valuation because of the company's
better same-store results and improving operating performance over
the past four quarters.

In addition, S&P affirmed its 'B-' corporate credit rating on
Michael Stores.

"The ratings on Michaels Stores reflect S&P's expectations for
flat to modestly higher sales, some widening in operating margins,
and for credit metrics to improve somewhat but to remain
characteristic of a low 'B' category credit rating," said Standard
& Poor's credit analyst Jayne Ross.  The company's financial risk
profile is highly leveraged given the substantial amount of debt
outstanding, upcoming maturities beginning in October 2013 and
beyond, and thin cash flow protection measures.

"S&P continue to view the business risk profile as weak based on
the risks associated with its participation in the competitive and
highly fragmented crafts industry, the challenges of managing new-
store growth, weak consumer spending, and the substantial
seasonality in its quarterly operating performance (skewed heavily
to the fourth quarter)," added Ms. Ross.


MIDDLEBROOK PHARMA: Two Unsecureds Resign from Creditors Committee

Official creditors' committees have the right to employ legal and
accounting professionals and financial advisors, at the Debtor's
expense.  They may investigate the Debtor's business and financial
affairs.  Importantly, official committees serve as fiduciaries to
the general population of creditors they represent.  Those
committees will also attempt to negotiate the terms of a
consensual Chapter 11 plan -- almost always subject to the terms
of strict confidentiality agreements with the Debtors and other
core parties-in-interest.  If negotiations break down, the
Committee may ask the Bankruptcy Court to replace management with
an independent trustee.  If the Committee concludes reorganization
of the Debtor is impossible, the Committee will urge the
Bankruptcy Court to convert the Chapter 11 cases to a liquidation
proceeding.

Westlake, Texas-based Middlebrook Pharmaceuticals, Inc., aka
Advancis Pharmaceuticals Corporation, is a pharmaceutical company
focused on commercializing anti-infective products that fulfill
unmet medical needs.  MiddleBrook's proprietary delivery
technology, PULSYS, enables the pulsatile delivery, or delivery in

District of Arizona has continued until November 23, 2010, at
11:00 a.m., the hearing to consider the confirmation of MSJ
Investment Properties, LLC, and P&G Investment Properties,

confirmation, ownership of the assets of the Chapter 11 estate be
vested in the Debtors, and the Debtors will continue to operate
the hotel property under the direction of the individuals in
control of the Debtors during the administration of the case.
This will continue, at least until the unsecured claims in Class 5
have been paid in full.

On the effective date, the Reorganized Debtors will establish a
Plan Fund consisting of a separate, segregated interest-bearing
deposit account, into which the Debtors will deposit funds for
distribution to Class 5 claimants.  The Plan Fund will be funded
initially from all cash funds in the Debtors possession on the
Effective Date.

Holders of general unsecured Claims will be paid in full, in cash,
in semi-annual installments in a pro rata amount from the Plan
Fund, together with interest thereon at the federal judgment rate
in effect from time to time.

The existing shareholder of the Debtors will not receive any
distribution on account of his interest unless and until all sums
due in Classes 1, 2 and 5 are paid in full pursuant to the Plan.

MUSCLE IMPROVEMENT: C.D. Calif. Disqualifies Creditor's Lawyer
--------------------------------------------------------------
WestLaw reports that an attorney who had previously consulted with
Chapter 11 debtors about representing them in the same bankruptcy
filing in which she now appeared as attorney for their principal
creditor was disqualified from representing the creditor.
Consultation about the possibility of a bankruptcy filing was one
in which confidential information would ordinarily be discussed,
of a kind material to representation of the creditor.  The
attorney could not rebut the presumption arising under California
law that confidential information was disclosed.  Moreover, the
presence of a third party, the debtor's financial consultant, at
the debtors' meeting with the attorney did not destroy whatever
expectation of privacy the debtors may have had as to any
confidential information disclosed.  In re Muscle Improvement,
Inc., --- B.R. ----, 2010 WL 3463646 (Bankr. C.D. Cal.).

Redondo Beach, Calif., Muscle Improvement Inc. operates fitness
centers and, with five affiliates, sought Chapter 11 protection
(Bankr. C.D. Calif. Case No. 10-12736) on Jan. 26, 2010.  Robert
M. Yaspan, Esq., in Woodland Hills, Calif., represents the
Debtors.  At the time of the filing, Muscle Improvement estimated
its assets and debts at less than $10 million.


NAPA SMITH: Creditors' Meeting Set for October 26
-------------------------------------------------
Jennifer Huffman, writing for Napa Valley Register, reports that a
bankruptcy creditors' meeting is scheduled for October 26 at 10
a.m. in the bankruptcy case of Napa Smith Brewery and Napa Smith
Winery.

Napa Smith filed for Chapter 7 business bankruptcy protection
September 22 before the U.S. Bankruptcy Court Northern District of
California in Santa Rosa.  According to Ms. Huffman, Napa Smith
Brewery and Napa Smith Winery are located at 1 Executive Way in
Napa, in the old Hakusan Sake Gardens at the corner of Highway 29
and Jamieson Canyon Road.  The property had entered into
foreclosure proceedings and was scheduled to be auctioned off at
the Napa County courthouse steps on Sept. 22 when the last-minute
business bankruptcy filing provided an automatic stay to any
property sale.

The Napa Valley Register reports that according to a 2008 Register
interview, Napa Smith owner Greg Cutuli and his wife, Kathy Smith-
Cutuli, bought the former Hakusan Sake Gardens in 2007 to open a
winery and brewery.

The Register notes that on Sept. 19, three days before Napa Smith
filed for bankruptcy protection, Pelican Brands of Indiana
announced the acquisition of Napa Smith Brewery and Napa Smith
Winery operations and the property, including seven acres and
50,000 square feet of production, warehouse and office space.
Even with the bankruptcy filing and foreclosure, his purchase of
the Napa Smith business will go forward, Pelican Brands chairman
J. Smoke Wallin said in a statement.

According to the report, Napa Smith lists only one creditor,
Liberty Bank of South San Francisco, owed $4 million.  The filing
lists both assets and liabilities of between $1 million and
$10 million.


NATIONAL BENEVOLENT: Weil Gotshal Malpractice Suit Revived
----------------------------------------------------------
Bankruptcy Law360 reports that the U.S. Bankruptcy Appellate Panel
for the Eighth Circuit has revived a lawsuit brought by a
Christian charity organization alleging Weil Gotshal & Manges LLP
mishandled its Chapter 11 case, saying the litigation should be
handled in state court.

According to Law360, the bankruptcy appeals panel ruled Friday
that a bankruptcy judge should have remanded to state court the
petition brought by the National Benevolent Association of the
Christian Church (Disciples of Christ).

Headquartered in Saint Louis, Missouri, The National Benevolent
Association of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) --
http://www.nbacares.org/-- manages more than 70 facilities
financed by the Department of Housing and Urban Development and
owns and operates 18 other facilities, including 11 multi-level
older adult communities, four children's facilities and three
special-care facilities for people with disabilities.  The non-
profit organization filed for chapter 11 protection on February
16, 2004 (Bankr. W.D. Tex. Case No. 04-50948).  Alfredo R. Perez,
Esq., at Weil, Gotshal & Manges, LLP, represented the Debtors in
their restructuring efforts.  When the Debtor filed for protection
from its creditors, it listed more than $200 million in debts and
assets at that time.  The organization emerged from chapter 11
protection on April 15, 2005.


NEW GENERATION: To Remain with NASDAQ Pending Compliance Ruling
---------------------------------------------------------------
Renewable fuels provider New Generation Biofuels Holdings, Inc.
learned the NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel will allow the
Company's securities to remain listed pending the Company's
demonstration that it has regained compliance with the $1 bid
price requirement and that it is able to sustain long term
compliance with all applicable requirements for continued listing
on The NASDAQ Capital Market, including the stockholders' equity
requirement.  In that regard, on September 15, 2010, the Panel
rendered a determination regarding the Company's listing.  The
Panel's decision required, among other things, the Company to
demonstrate on or before September 25, 2010, that its
stockholders' equity was at least $2.5. million and, on or before
December 20, 2010, that its closing bid price had been at least $1
per share for a minimum of ten consecutive trading days, as well
as that the Company met and could sustain compliance with all
other applicable requirements, including the stockholders' equity
requirement.  The Company filed a form 8-K on September 27, 2010,
confirming stockholders' equity of at least $2.5 million as of
that date.  While the Company is diligently taking steps to regain
compliance in accordance with the Panel's decision, there can be
no assurances that the Company will be able to do so.

As previously disclosed, on June 23, 2010, NASDAQ notified the
Company that it did not comply with the minimum bid price and
stockholders' equity requirements and that the Company's
securities were subject to delisting unless the Company requested
a hearing before a Panel.  The Company timely requested a hearing
and appeared before the Panel on August 5, 2010.

NORTHSTAR AEROSPACE: Seeks Forbearance on $500,000 Duluth Loan
--------------------------------------------------------------
The Duluth News Tribune reports that Northstar Aerospace has asked
the city of Duluth, Minnesota, for a fourth round of forbearance
-- until March 31, 2011 -- on a $500,000 loan it received in 2006
to expand its operations.

"It's absolutely critical we continue to get this relief so we can
get to the other side," said John Eagleton, Northstar's president
and CEO, according to the report.

News Tribune says Northstar had been making regular payments on
the loan, including principal and interest, until the bottom fell
out of the aviation industry in the fall of 2008.  Northstar went
from having revenues of about $14 million in 2008 to just $3
million in 2009, the report notes.

News Tribune says Duluth amended Northstar's loan agreement in
2009, allowing the company to temporarily pay only interest on its
outstanding loan, without chipping away at the principal.

News Tribune says the Duluth City Council was slated to consider
the fourth extension at a meeting Monday.

Northstar Aerospace -- http://www.nsaero.com/-- is an independent
manufacturer of flight critical gears and transmissions.
Northstar employs 45 people, Mr. Eagleton said.


NOWAUTO GROUP: Recurring Losses Cue Going Concern Doubt
-------------------------------------------------------
NowAuto Group, Inc., filed on October 7, 2010, its annual report
on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010.

Semple, Marchal & Cooper, LLP, in Phoenix, Ariz., expressed
substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern.  The independent auditors noted that the Company
has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net
capital deficiency.

The Company reported a net loss of $1.9 million on $5.1 million of
revenue for fiscal 2010, compared with a net loss of $2.2 million
on $5.4 million of revenue for fiscal 2009.

Considering the Company's working capital position at year end and
the projected cash requirements to fund operations, management
estimates that its year-end cash balance of $54,551 will not be
adequate to meet cash requirements and that additional draws will
need to be made against its $13 million line of credit with a
privately held, independent finance company.  At June 30, 2010,
the Company had a balance of roughly $12.3 million under the line
of credit.  Interest rate on the line of credit agreement is at
prime plus 6% (9.25% at June 30, 2010).

The Company's balance sheet at June 30, 2010, showed $4.3 million
in total assets, $12.7 million in total liabilities, and a
stockholders' deficit of $8.4 million.

"The present condition of the sub-prime and below sub-prime market
has continued to impact our industry and our company" said CEO
Scott Miller.  "While our emphasis is always on collections, our
challenge in the current environment is to maximize sales while
aggressively work with our customer to maintain active contracts.
New finance programs, new businesses and changes in marketing and
advertising yielded positive results.  Nevertheless, we expect a
difficult environment for the foreseeable future.  Our commitment
to customers and shareholders alike remains; NowAuto will do
whatever it can to maintain productive contracts without placing
imprudent demands on our customers" Miller said.

"We are seeking to broaden our customer base and increase repeat
business using new customer retention and reward programs" said
Chief Financial Officer Faith Forbis.  "We believe programs,
combined with an improved interest rate environment, will boost
fiscal 2011 sales."

"During the second quarter of fiscal 2010 we will be launching new
business lines complimentary to our existing operations.  We
expect minimal start-up and operating expenses for these new lines
of business" said Chief Operating Officer Theodore Valenzuela.
"While we do not expect substantial contribution to our top line
in the first year, we believe these new lines of business will
improve the bottom line in fiscal 2012" Valenzuela said.

NUTRACEA INC: SunTree Buys Manufacturing Plant for $4.5 Million
---------------------------------------------------------------
Phoenix Business Journal's Jan Buchholz reports that SunTree
LLC has purchased a West Valley manufacturing facility for
$4.5 million from NutraCea Inc.

SunTree processes nuts, dried fruit and other snacks.  It operates
a manufacturing facility in California's San Joaquin Valley.
Business Journal relates the San Joaquin operation will be moved
to the new property after the first of the year.

SunTree's parent company, David Turner International LLC paid $4.5
million for the 124,400-square-foot NutraCea facility, Business
Journal reports, citing records filed at the Maricopa County
Recorder's Office.

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter on September 29,
2010, Bill Rochelle, the bankruptcy columnist at Bloomberg News,
reported that NutraCea has a confirmation hearing scheduled for
October 19 to approve the reorganization plan designed to pay
unsecured creditors in full with interest.  Distributions to
unsecured creditors will be about $6.2 million.

NUVEEN INVESTMENTS: Boasts of "Strong" Overall Business
-------------------------------------------------------
Nuveen Investments Inc. presented at the Deutsche Bank Leveraged
Finance Conference held on October 7, 2010.  Nuveen said that
"overall business is strong and growing again."  The Company
noted, among other things, that it has:

  -- significant asset growth due to market appreciation and
     positive net flows;

  -- favorable flow trends in fixed income, growth & international
     equities; and

                    About Nuveen Investments

Founded in 1898, Nuveen Investments, Inc., based in Chicago,
Illinois, provides investment management services to high-net-
worth and institutional investors and the financial consultants
and advisors who serve them.  The Company derives substantially
all of its revenues from providing investment advisory services
and distributing managed account products, closed-end exchange-
traded funds and open-end mutual funds.

Nuveen carries a 'Caa1' corporate family rating from Moody's
Investors Service and a 'B-' long-term counterparty credit rating
from Standard & Poor's ratings service.

At the end of July 2010, Moody's changed the outlook for its he
ratings to positive from stable following the company's
announcement that it has entered into an agreement to acquire the
long-only assets of First American Fund Advisors, a subsidiary of
US Bancorp (Aa3/P- 1/Neg).  Moody's stated that Nuveen's outlook
change reflects improving fundamentals at Nuveen and expected
near-term financial and longer-term strategic benefits of the FAF
Advisors acquisition.  However, Moody's still views Nuveen's
leverage as "clearly excessive, particularly in the context of
elevated market volatility."  The Caa1 corporate family rating
incorporates a high potential for a modest capital restructuring,
Moody's said.


OKIE DOKIE: Attorney General Objects to Sale of Love NightClub
--------------------------------------------------------------
Jacqueline Palank, writing for Dow Jones' Daily Bankruptcy Review,
reports that Peter J. Nickles, attorney general for the District
of Columbia, is objecting to the $7.8 million sale of Washington's
Love nightclub to Dean Smothers for these reasons:

     -- Mr. Smothers' failure to comply with Washington tax laws
        at his nightclub, The Scene; and

     -- Mr. Smothers may not have the financial resources to close
        the sale.

According to DBR, Mr. Nickles said in court papers filed Friday
that "two significant problems with the proposed transaction"
emerged at an August hearing before District alcohol regulators.
Mr. Nickles said that at that hearing, the regulators denied Mr.
Smothers's request to have Love's liquor license transferred to
him from the club's current owners, Marc Barnes and his Okie Dokie
Inc.  Mr. Nickles also said that, "From testimony elicited at the
hearing -- testimony that was highly confusing, misleading, and
complex -- most of the purchase price is being financed by loans."
He points out that Mr. Smothers "is only investing $262,653 of his
own money into the transaction.  It is unknown what the financial
condition of the purchaser is."

DBR ntoes that Okie Dokie, in its request to sell the club, said
it was "satisfied with the financial representations made by the
purchaser."

DBR also relates the attorney representing Mr. Smothers' Impulse
LLC, David Masselli, Esq., on Monday defended Mr. Smothers'
financial ability to close the deal.  He also said it's common for
liquor licensees and taxing authorities to dispute owed taxes and
said Mr. Smothers and the District were "working out their
differences" before Okie Dokie's bankruptcy filing.

According to DBR, Mr. Masselli said the benefits of the deal are
many; Smothers, through Impulse, will pay off about $156,000 in
past-due real-estate taxes on the club's property, keep about 100
jobs in place and ensure the District is paid back on the club's
existing tax liabilities.

"If the proposal is not accepted, it is almost certain that Love
will close, jobs will be lost, and the property will be sold in
foreclosure, and the District's ability to collect those back
taxes --  which are not owed by Impulse -- will be in doubt," Mr.
Masselli said, according to DBR.

A Washington bankruptcy judge will consider approving the deal
Tuesday.

                         About Okie Dokie

Based in Washington, DC, Okie Dokie Inc. owns the Love NightClub.

Jr. presides over the case.  Kim Yvette Johnson, Esq., in Laurel,

OTC HOLDINGS: Gets Nod to Tap Jefferies as Financial Advisor
------------------------------------------------------------
OTC Holdings Corporation, et al., sought and obtained
authorization from the Hon. Brendan L. Shannon of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware to employ Jefferies
& Company, Inc., as financial advisor and investment banker, nunc
pro tunc to the commencement date.

Jefferies will, among other things:

     a. advise and assist the Debtors in connection with
        analyzing, structuring, negotiating and effecting, and
        acting as exclusive financial advisor to the Debtors in
        connection with any potential restructuring of the
        Debtors' outstanding indebtedness;

     b. advise the Debtors on the current state of the
        "restructuring market";

     c. review and analyze any proposals the Debtors receive from
        third parties; and

     d. provide the Debtors with financial advice and assistance
        in connection with a possible sale of the Debtors or all
        or substantially all of the Debtors' assets.

The Debtors will pay Jefferies a monthly fee of $125,000 payable
on the 1st day of each month during the term of the firm's
engagement letter; provided that 50% of all monthly fees paid to
the firm on or after January 1, 2010, will be credited against any
transaction fee.  Upon the consummation of a debt restructuring or
merger and acquisition transaction entered into during the
Debtors' Chapter 11 cases, a fee of $4.0 million.

Michael Henkin, Jefferies' managing director, assured the Court
that the Firm is a "disinterested person," as that term is defined
in section 101(14) of the Bankruptcy Code, as modified by section
1107(b) of the Bankruptcy Code.

Omaha, Nebraska-based OTC Holdings Corporation filed for Chapter
11 protection on August 25, 2010 (Bankr. D. Del. Case No. 10-

PENN NATIONAL: M Resort Deal Won't Affect Moody's 'Ba2' Rating
--------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service said that Penn National, Inc.'s purchase
of all of The M Resort LLC's secured bank debt and subordinated
debt for $230.5 million has no immediate impact on the company's
Ba2 Corporate Family Rating or stable rating outlook.

Penn National Gaming, Inc., owns and operates twenty-five gaming
facilities in thirteen jurisdictions including Colorado, Illinois,
Indiana, Iowa, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi, Missouri, New
Jersey, Maine, Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Ontario, Canada.
The company generates about $2.4 billion of annual net revenues.


PETTERS GROUP: Ch. 11 Trustee Sues Vennes to Recoup $2.3 Billion
----------------------------------------------------------------
Jacqueline Palank, writing for Dow Jones' Daily Bankruptcy Review,
reports that Chapter 11 Trustee Douglas A. Kelley, who's been
liquidating Petters Co. and other companies affiliated with Tom
Petters, on Wednesday sued Frank E. Vennes Jr. and three entities
affiliated with him seeking to recover promissory note principal
payments, false profits and commissions Mr. Kelley says were
fraudulently transferred to them in connection with Mr. Petters's
Ponzi scheme.

According to the report, Mr. Vennes' companies received
$2.3 billion from Mr. Petters.

The report relates Mr. Kelley said Mr. Vennes and Metro Gem "knew
or should have known" they were profiting from Petters's fraud, or
at a minimum failed to perform "reasonable" due diligence on the
companies they were doing business with.  Instead, Mr. Kelley said
Mr. Vennes and Metro Gem "ignored numerous indicia of fraud from
the general manner in which Petters and" Petters Co. operated.

Ms. Palank reports that Mr. Vennes's attorney, Jim Volling, said
Thursday that he and his clients disagree with the lawsuit's
allegations and will "strenuously defend" against them.

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter, Mr. Kelley last week
sued Minnesota investment firm Arrowhead Capital Management to
recover the $5.15 billion he says it received over 12 years.

Ms. Palank says Mr. Kelley is seeking to recoup funds from
charitable organizations, including the St. Jude Children's
Research Hospital, the Make-a-Wish Foundation of Minnesota and Big
Brothers Big Sisters of the Greater Twin Cities.

PS BUSINESS: S&P Assigns 'BB+' Rating on New $75 Mil. Stock
-----------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services assigned its 'BB+' rating to
the new $75 million 6.875% preferred stock series R issued by PS
Business Parks Inc., the general partner of PS Business Parks L.P.
S&P's outlook on PS Business is positive.

PS Business intends to use net proceeds from the offering to
redeem higher-coupon preferred stock, which will modestly improve
its already strong fixed-charge coverage measures.  The company
plans to use any remaining portion of the net proceeds for general
corporate purposes.

During the second quarter, PS Business' same-park occupancy rose
to 91.7%, but revenue per available sq. ft. dipped 1.3% as rents
fell 15.9% overall on expiration.  While market fundamentals
remain challenging, RevPAF declines are easing (was -2.3% in the
year-ago quarter).  Same-park NOI slipped a modest 0.4%, as
revenue declines were largely offset by expense savings (property
tax reductions and lower repair and maintenance).  PS Business has
acquired $160 million of properties year to date, including most
recently a $35 million 47% occupied building in the Northern
Virginia market ($131 per sq. ft).  This follows earlier
acquisitions in the company's Rockville, Md., and Austin, Texas,
markets (also acquired with some vacancy, which PS Business seeks
to exploit given its existing, generally well-leased platform in
both markets).  PS Business' coverage metrics fell slightly during
the first half of 2010, but remain strong (3.0x fixed charge and
1.4x total coverage, including the common dividend).  S&P expects
future fixed-charge coverage to benefit from a second-quarter
preferred stock redemption.  The REIT faces no meaningful debt
maturities and retained full availability on its revolver
($100 million, due August 2012) at June 30, 2010.

S&P's ratings on PS Business acknowledge the company's modest
financial profile.  The company conservatively finances itself
predominantly with common and preferred stock.  As a result, PS
Business faces negligible refinancing risk.  Additionally, its
coverage measures are very solid and have held steady despite the
current economic downturn.  S&P's ratings also reflect a
satisfactory business profile, characterized by the company's
less-risky long-term-hold portfolio strategy, as well as its niche
market position.  A weaker asset base with mixed tenant quality
somewhat temper these strengths.  Significant remaining lease
maturities in 2010, amid fundamental office market conditions that
will likely remain challenging, also currently mitigate the
company's strengths.

RADIO SYSTEMS: Moody's Assigns 'B1' Rating on Senior Facility
-------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service assigned a B1 rating to Radio Systems
Corporation's proposed senior secured credit facility, consisting
of a $75 million revolving credit facility due 2015 and a
$150 million term loan due 2015.  Concurrently, Moody's affirmed
the company's B2 corporate family rating and B3 probability-of-
default rating.  Proceeds from the proposed credit facility will
primarily be used to refinance existing indebtedness.  The ratings
outlook remains stable.

Ratings assigned:

  -- Proposed $75 million senior secured revolving credit facility
     due 2015 at B1 (LGD3, 33%);

  -- Proposed $150 million senior secured term loan due 2015 at B1
     (LGD3, 33%).

Ratings affirmed:

  -- Corporate family rating at B2;
  -- Probability-of-default rating at B3.

Ratings affirmed and to be withdrawn at completion of the proposed
refinancing:

  -- Senior secured revolving credit facility due 2011 at B2
     (LGD3, 31%);

  -- Senior secured term loan due 2013 at B2 (LGD3, 31%).

                        Ratings Rationale

Radio Systems' B2 corporate family rating is limited by its modest
scale, narrow product focus on the electronic pet supplies
category, exposure to discretionary consumer spending trends, the
soft retail environment, and increased acquisition risk.  The
rating is also limited by a potential significant call on cash in
the form of an equity put option held by the company's financial
sponsor that is exercisable any time after September 15, 2011.
Notwithstanding these risks, the rating is supported by the
company's moderate leverage with debt to EBITDA consistently below
3.5 times, good interest coverage, free cash flow generation that
has been applied to debt reduction, recognized brand names, and
strong operating margins.

Moody's favorably views the financing as it extends debt
maturities and increases capacity under the revolving credit
facility.  However, the rating considers the likelihood for
increased acquisition activity as the company seeks to enhance its
product portfolio, distribution capabilities, and retail shelf
space.  The company has already completed two meaningful
acquisitions this year (Veterinary Ventures and Premier Products,
LLC).

The stable outlook reflects Moody's expectation that Radio Systems
will improve its revenue and earnings over the medium-term through
organic expansion and contributions from acquisitions such that
credit metrics will remain relatively consistent or improve from
current levels.

Ratings upside is largely limited by the aforementioned equity put
option and the company's increased acquisition appetite.  However,
the ratings could experience positive pressure to the extent that
the company addresses the equity put option, sustains organic
revenue and earnings growth, while maintaining leverage around
current levels.

If the soft retail environment causes operating performance to
deteriorate such that credit metrics meaningfully weaken from
current levels, or there is an erosion in company's liquidity
profile (such as reduced cushion under financial covenants) this
could pressure the ratings.  Material debt-financed acquisitions
outside of current expectations could also pressure the ratings.

The ratings are subject to Moody's review of final documentation.

Based in Knoxville, Tennessee, Radio Systems Corporation is a
provider of electronic pet containment products, pet training
products, and pet doors.

SAINT VINCENTS: Court Okays Sale of Psych Unit to St. Joseph's
--------------------------------------------------------------
The Wall Street Journal's Chris Herring reports that the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York on Thursday
approved a $38-million deal that will allow St. Vincent Catholic
Medical Centers to sell its Westchester County-based behavioral
health operations to St. Joseph's Medical Center.

According to the Journal, a number of other departments --
including the state's Department of Health, Office for Mental
Health and Office for Alcoholism and Substance Abuse Services --
still need to sign off on the deal.

According to the Journal, Mark Toney, St. Vincent's chief
restructuring officer, said the hospital was pleased it would be
able to preserve programs that serve thousands of people in the
region.  The Journal also relates Dean Civitello, a St. Joseph's
spokesman, said officials hoped to have the facility fully
transitioned by next month.

The Journal notes SVCMC has auctioned off and sold a number of its
properties and programs in recent months, including a long-term
home health care program and a staff house for its medical
residents, totaling more than $100 million.

In an August 31 report, the Troubled Company Reporter, citing Bill
Rochelle, the bankruptcy columnist for Bloomberg News, said SVCMC
struck a deal with St. Joseph's Medical Center to sell its
inpatient and outpatient behavioral health services operations for
$18 million cash plus assumption of $5 million of debt.

                            About SVCMC

Saint Vincents Catholic Medical Centers -- http://www.svcmc.org/
-- was anchored by St. Vincent's Hospital Manhattan, an academic
medical center located in Greenwich Village and the only emergency
room on the Westside of Manhattan from Midtown to Tribeca, St.
Vincent's Westchester, a behavioral health hospital in Westchester
County, and continuing care services that include two skilled
nursing facilities in Brooklyn, another on Staten Island, a
hospice, and a home health agency serving the Metropolitan New
York area.

Saint Vincent Catholic Medical Centers of New York and six of its
affiliates first filed for Chapter 11 protection on July 5, 2005
(Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case No. 05-14945 through 05-14951).

St. Vincents Catholic Medical Centers returned to bankruptcy court
by filing another Chapter 11 petition (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case No.
10-11963) on April 14, 2010.  The Debtor estimated assets of
$348 million against debts totaling $1.09 billion in the new
petition.

Although the hospitals emerged from the prior reorganization in
July 2007 with a Chapter 11 plan said to have "a realistic chance"
of paying all creditors in full, the bankruptcy left the medical
center with more than $1 billion in debt.  The new filing occurred
after a $64 million operating loss in 2009 and the last potential
buyer terminated discussions for taking over the flagship
hospital.

Adam C. Rogoff, Esq., and Kenneth H. Eckstein, Esq., at Kramer
Levin Naftalis & Frankel LLP, represent the Debtor in its Chapter
11 effort.

STAR VACUUM: To Liquidate Under Chapter 7 in Maryland
-----------------------------------------------------
The Washington Post reports that Star Vacuum Cleaners Inc. in
Dunkirk, Maryland, commenced Chapter 7 liquidation proceedings
(Bankr. D. Md. Case No. 10-32933) on October 6.  Marla L. Howell,
Esq., serves as bankruptcy counsel.  The Company estimated under
$50,000 in assets and $50,001 to $100,000 in debts.  Capital One,
owed $67,534, is its largest unsecured creditor.


SHUBH HOTELS: BlackRock and Hilton Agree to License Deal
--------------------------------------------------------
Mark Belko, writing for The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, reports that
Eloisa Mascarenas, vice president of BlackRock Financial
Management Inc., testified before the Bankruptcy Court on Friday
that Hilton Hotels & Resorts had agreed to enter into a long-term
franchise license deal with BlackRock if the lender ends up owning
Shubh Hotels Pittsburgh LLC's property through a foreclosure.  The
report notes Hilton also is prepared to do so on an interim basis
if a receiver is appointed to run the property until the
foreclosure takes place.

According to Post-Gazette, Ms. Mascarenas, who once worked for
Hilton, said BlackRock had already been approved by the chain as a
franchisee.  A Hilton spokesman could not be reached for comment.

The Post-Gazette also reports that, Ms. Mascarenas, under
questioning by John Steiner, Esq., an attorney for the committee
of unsecured creditors, said BlackRock:

     -- intended to own and operate the hotel if there
        is a foreclosure;

     -- might put forth its own plan of reorganization in the
        bankruptcy

     -- had valued the hotel at about $56 million, more than the
        $49.6 million mortgage on the property.

Ms. Mascarenas acknowledged that in a foreclosure, creditors, like
vendors and contractors, could end up receiving nothing.

According to Post-Gazette, BlackRock's intent contrasts with a
plan of reorganization prepared by Dr. Kiran Patel, a Tampa, Fla.,
cardiologist who is seeking to rescue the hotel from bankruptcy
and rebrand it as a Wyndham Grand under Wyndham Hotels & Resorts.
Dr. Patel's plan would fully repay all creditors with allowable
claims over a period of several years.  The payments would be made
out of hotel revenues, backed by $8 million in letters of credit
procured by Dr. Patel.

Post-Gazette also relates that Scott Hare, Esq., an attorney for
Shubh, argued that BlackRock's objective in the case was to
foreclose on the property for its benefit and to the detriment of
others.  He said that if the stay on foreclosure were lifted, it
could "imperil" contractors, vendors and other unsecured creditors
who are owed money.

The report relates Ms. Mascarenas said Shubh was current on its
interest-only loan payments, and had never defaulted on those.
Principal payments do not start until at least 2015.  Interest on
the mortgage is 1.67%, which she described as "very favorable" to
the borrower.

The Post-Gazette relates BlackRock is seeking to move forward with
a foreclosure that was triggered when Hilton terminated its
franchise license agreement with Shubh.  BlackRock demanded
immediate repayment of the full $49.6 million loan, triggering the
default.

The report notes the Downtown hotel had carried the "Hilton" name
for 51 years.

                        About Shubh Hotels

Boca Raton, Florida-based Shubh Hotels Pittsburgh, LLC, owns and
operates the Pittsburgh Hilton Hotel.  It filed for Chapter 11
bankruptcy protection on September 7, 2010 (Bankr. W.D. Pa. Case
No. 10-26337).  Scott M. Hare, Esq., in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania,
and attorneys at Rudov & Stein, P.C., serve as co-counsel.  The
Debtor estimated its assets at $10 million to $50 million and
debts at $50 million to $100 million.

Skilled Healthcare recognized revenues of approximately
$761 million for the trailing 12-month period ended March 31,
2010.

On July 7, 2010, the company announced that a jury in Humboldt
County, California returned a verdict against the Company with
initial damages awarded to plaintiffs amounting to $671 million.
Reportedly, the $671 million is composed of $613 million in
statutory damages and $58 million in restitutionary damages.  The
case related to a California statute that requires nursing homes
to maintain 3.2 nursing hours per patient per day.  The total
damages were assessed at a rate of $500 per-patient per-day that
the 22 nursing facilities involved in the suit were in violation
of the law.

According to Bloomberg, the Company's revenue of $759.8 million in
2009 resulted in a net loss of $133.2 million.  For the first
quarter of 2010, the Company's net income was $8.9 million on
revenue of $189.3 million.

The balance sheet at March 31 showed current assets of
$131.4 million among total assets of $859 million.  Current
liabilities were $91.7 million.  Total liabilities were
$574.7 million.

Following the verdict, S&P lowered the Company's corporate credit
rating to 'CCC' from 'B+'.  The Company carries a 'B2' corporate
family rating, under review for downgrade, from Moody's Investors
Service.

THERMOPYLAE LLC: Files for Chapter 11 in Maryland
-------------------------------------------------
The Washington Post reports that Thermopylae LLC in Rockville,
Maryland, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection (Bankr. D.
Md., Case No. 10-32452) on September 30.  Steven H. Greenfeld,
Esq., serves as bankruptcy counsel.  The Company estimated under
$50,000 in assets and 500,001 to $1 million in debts in its
Chapter 11 petition.  It listed Harbor Bank of Maryland as its
largest unsecured creditor, owed $461,873.


THINKFILM LLC: Formally Declared Bankrupt
-----------------------------------------
Brent Lang at TheWrap reports that Federal judge Barry Russell
formally declared David Bergstein's ThinkFilm LLC and Capitol
Films Development bankrupt on October 5, 2010.

According to the report, the judge's decision followed a three-
hour hearing and had been expected after Mr. Bergstein's lawyers
missed a key deadline to oppose a motion for a summary judgment in
the Chapter 11 hearing.

TheWrap says Mr. Bergstein is being sued for tens of millions of
dollars by nearly 30 creditors -- including advertisers,
publicists and the Writers Guild West.  Five Bergstein controlled
companies have been named in the suit -- the two declared bankrupt
Wednesday, as well as R2D2, CT-1, and Capco.

"So far in this bankruptcy hearing, we've heard every excuse for
why they're supposedly not bankrupt up to and including the dog
ate my homework and I got sun in my eyes.  Today, they ran out of
excuses on two of the five companies and it won't be long before
the same is true on the remaining three," Aramid Entertainment
Funds' David Molner, one of the major creditors involved in the
case, told TheWrap.

TheWrap relates that Aramid is attempting to recover approximately
$16 million from Mr. Bergstein and his business partner Ronald
Tutor (who recently agreed to purchase Miramax from Disney in a
complex deal that Bergstein helped broker).

According to TheWrap, Mr. Bergstein, however, said the ruling was
not a setback and maintained that he had never disputed that the
two companies in question were insolvent.  The film financier said
that Capitol Films was a small subsidiary company with little
activity, and that he had already put it into administration in
the United Kingdom.

"All we have been focused on from the beginning is to keep the
parent companies, R2D2 and CT1, out of bankruptcy.  They are not
insolvent and the judge indicated today that will go to trial next
year," Bergstein told The Wrap via email.

                      About Thinkfilm, et al.

CapCo Group LLC and four other companies controlled by David
Bergstein are part of a wider network of entities that distribute
and finance films.  Among the approximately 1,300 films they have
the rights to are "Boondock Saints" and "The Wedding Planner."

Several creditors filed for involuntary Chapter 11 against the
companies on March 17, 2010 -- CT-1 Holdings LLC (Bankr. C.D.
Calif. Case No. 10-19927); CapCo Group, LLC (Bankr. C.D. Calif.
Case No. 10-19929); Capitol Films Development LLC (Bankr. C.D.
Calif. Case No. 10-19938); R2D2, LLC (Bankr. C.D. Calif. Case No.
10-19924); and ThinkFilm LLC (Bankr. C.D. Calif. Case No. 10-
19912).  Judge Barry Russell presides over the cases.  The
Petitioners are represented by David L. Neale, Esq., at Levene
Neale Bender Rankin & Brill LLP.

Official creditors' committees have the right to employ legal and
accounting professionals and financial advisors, at the Debtor's
expense.  They may investigate the Debtor's business and financial
affairs.  Importantly, official committees serve as fiduciaries to
the general population of creditors they represent.  Those
committees will also attempt to negotiate the terms of a
consensual Chapter 11 plan -- almost always subject to the terms
of strict confidentiality agreements with the Debtors and other
core parties-in-interest.  If negotiations break down, the
Committee may ask the Bankruptcy Court to replace management with
an independent trustee.  If the Committee concludes reorganization
of the Debtor is impossible, the Committee will urge the
Bankruptcy Court to convert the Chapter 11 cases to a liquidation
proceeding.

UNITY MUTUAL: A.M. Best Puts "b+" Issuer Credit Rating
------------------------------------------------------
A.M. Best Co. has placed the financial strength rating (FSR) of C++
(Marginal) and issuer credit rating (ICR) of "b+" of Unity Mutual
Life Insurance Company (Unity Mutual) (Syracuse, NY) under review
with positive implications.

The rating actions are based on the October 8, 2010 announcement by
Unity Mutual and Columbian Mutual Life Insurance Company (Columbian
Mutual) that they intend to merge.  The merged organization will
adopt the Columbian name and product portfolio.  Columbian Mutual is
the lead life insurer of Columbian Financial Group (CFG).  Following
regulatory and policyholder approval, the merger is expected to take
effect by June 30, 2011.

CFG has employed a strategy of combinations with mutual life
insurers, completing several similar transactions in recent years.
The proposed combination with Unity Mutual is consistent with this
strategy and will incorporate Unity Mutual policyholders into a
stronger organization.  The FSR of A- (Excellent) and ICR of "a-" of
Columbian Mutual are unchanged by this transaction.


VALLEY ROAD: S&P Assigns 'BB+' Rating on $215 Mil. Senior Notes
---------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said it assigned its 'BB+'
rating to Valley Road Funding LLC's $215 million senior secured
first-lien term loan, a $50 million senior secured revolving
first-lien letter of credit facility and $30 million senior
secured first-lien revolver (all due November 2014).  The final
rating follows S&P's review of transaction documents.  S&P also
assigned a recovery rating of '1' to the senior secured
obligations, indicating a very high recovery (90%-100%) of
principal in a default scenario.  The outlook is stable.  Valley
Road Holdings LLC guarantees the obligations.

Holdings, a U.S. electricity generating business, is a special-
purpose entity that owns Funding.  In turn, Valley Road LLC, a
subsidiary of certain LS Power investment funds, owns Holdings.
Funding owns three assets:

* Griffith Energy LLC, a 580 megawatt combined-cycle plant in
  Arizona, Rocky Road Power LLC, a 330 MW peaker plant in
  Illinois, and Tilton Energy LLC, a 180 MW peaker in Illinois.

The contractual framework of the project provides the primary
credit support for this transaction, specifically:

* Griffith has a "summer-only" tolling agreement with Nevada Power
  Co. (BB/Stable/--) through 2017.

Rocky Road has locked-in capacity payments through the PJM
region's capacity auction through May 2014, and Griffith has a
long-term service agreement with General Electric Co.
(AA+/Stable/A-1+) for maintenance.

The project's contractual framework provides the primary credit
support for this transaction's rating and stable outlook.  S&P
could lower the rating if Griffith experiences a sustained
operating issue that reduces payments under the tolling agreement
and S&P lowers the rating on NPC.  S&P could raise the rating if
S&P raises the corporate credit rating of NPC to 'BBB-'.

VERASUN ENERGY: Trustee Drops Repayment Claim v. Aurora Coop
------------------------------------------------------------
The Grand Island Independent reports that the Aurora Cooperative
said Thursday VeraSun Energy Corp.'s bankruptcy trustee dropped
its repayment claim against the Aurora Cooperative.

In August, attorneys representing VeraSun's bankruptcy trustee
sent letters to growers and commercial grain companies who sold
corn to VeraSun in the 90 days before it filed for Chapter 11
bankruptcy protection in 2008, telling the growers and grain
companies they had until September 30 to repay 80% of what VeraSun
paid them for their corn.  On October 1, VeraSun announced it had
dropped its repayment pursuit of individual corn growers.

The Troubled Company Reporter on October 7, 2010, reported that
the Aurora Cooperative won't have to repay for corn it sold to
VeraSun.  According to the AP, the Aurora Cooperative said it
successfully argued against repaying anything to VeraSun.

The Aurora Cooperative is a central Nebraska grain elevator
cooperative.

ZANETT INC: Bank of America Extends Forbearance Until Oct. 31
-------------------------------------------------------------
Zanett, Inc., together with its wholly owned subsidiary, Zanett
Commercial Solutions, Inc., on September 28, 2010, entered into a
Second Amended Forbearance Agreement with Bank of America, N.A.,
as successor-by-merger to LaSalle Bank National Association, which
amended the Forbearance Agreement entered into between the parties
on June 21, 2010.

The Lender agreed to continue to forbear from exercising the
rights and remedies available to it under the Loan Agreement until
the earlier of the occurrence of:

     (i) an event of default under the Loan Agreement -- but not
         including the events of default described in the Second
         Amended Agreement; or

    (ii) October 31, 2010.

The Second Amended Agreement relates to the existence of certain
events of default under the Loan and Security Agreement between
the Borrowers and the Lender dated December 21, 2006, as amended,
and the expiration of the term of the First Amended Agreement on
August 21, 2010.  Among other things, the Contract Term under the
Loan Agreement expired on June 21, 2010, and the Borrowers have
failed to repay the liabilities in full on that date.  The
Borrowers also failed to maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of
not less than 1.25 to 1 as of March 31, 2010.

As of September 27, 2010, the principal balance outstanding under
the Loans was $4,420,866.

The interest rate under the Second Amended Agreement remains the
same as under the Original Agreement and the First Amended
Agreement, and the advance rate under the Loan Agreement is 62.5%
of the face amount of Borrowers' then Existing Eligible Accounts
as defined in the Loan Agreement, and the maximum revolving loan
limit is reduced to $5,000,000.

Upon expiration or earlier termination of the Forbearance Term,
the Lender may, without notice or demand, cause all outstanding
liabilities under the Loan Agreement to become immediately due and
payable, and the Lender may terminate its obligation to forbear
under the Second Amended Agreement, cease making advances under
the Loan Agreement, and exercise all remedies available to the
Lender under law, equity or otherwise.

The Borrowers agreed to pay the Lender a forbearance fee equal to
$30,000 in connection with the Second Amended Agreement.

The Borrowers agreed to certain customary covenants, conditions,
waivers, and releases, made certain representations and
warranties, and agreed to indemnify the Lender and its affiliates
against actions that may occur under the Loan Agreement, the
Original Agreement, the First Amended Agreement, the Second
Amended Agreement, and related agreements and documents.

A full-text copy of the Second Amended Forbearance Agreement,
effective as of September 28, 2010, among Bank of America, N.A.,
as successor-by-merger to LaSalle Bank National Association,
Zanett, Inc., and Zanett Commercial Solutions, Inc., is available
at http://ResearchArchives.com/t/s?6c59

Based in New York, Zanett Inc. is an information technology
company that provides customized IT solutions to Fortune 500
corporations and mid-market companies.  Until the disposition of
Paragon Dynamics, Inc., the Company also provided those solutions
to classified government agencies.

As of June 30, 2010, the Company had total assets of $28,603,360,
total liabilities of $22,129,148, and stockholders' equity of
$6,474,212.


* Bankruptcy Filings Rise in Southwest Florida
----------------------------------------------
Laura Ruane, writing for News-Press in Fort Myers, Florida,
reports that business bankruptcy filings -- once a rarity in
Southwest Florida -- have stepped-up significantly in the past
five years following the meltdowns in construction, real estate
and banking.

The report says bankruptcy numbers aren't as large as in metro
areas such as Tampa and Miami; still, the increases are
breathtaking.  For example, the report notes, in Lee, Collier,
Charlotte, DeSoto, Hendry and Glades counties combined:

     -- Chapter 11 reorganization filings last year totaled 78,
        more than five times the 14 filings in all of 2006.

     -- Chapter 7 liquidation filings were nearly 10 times
        greater, 3,179, compared with 348 in 2006.  The region's
        Chapter 7 filings had spiked in 2005 (2,995) as debtors
        rushed to qualify before the rules got more stringent
        later in the year.

The report points out the rank of filers have included both mom-
and-pops and prominent companies such as Bonita Springs-based
Source Interlink, North America's second-biggest distributor of
magazines, and WCI Communities.


* Lazard's Kurtz Says Execs. Now Seek Advisers Sooner
-----------------------------------------------------
Eric Morath, writing for Dow Jones' Daily Bankruptcy Review,
reports that David Kurtz, co-head of investment bank Lazard Freres
& Co.'s restructuring group, said executives of troubled firms are
turning to Lazard and other restructuring advisers months or even
as much as a year before they project potential problems.

"Companies will invite us in before they have the problem, often
three or four quarters before they manifest a default," Mr. Kurtz
said Thursday at the Turnaround Management Association's annual
convention in Orlando, according to Mr. Morath.

According to Mr. Morath, Mr. Kurtz said that's a significant
change from a few years ago when the typical reaction by
executives was "blanket denial."  The result is there are far
fewer so called free-fall bankruptcies, when a company in crisis
slams into Chapter 11 because it's out of options.

Mr. Morath relates Mr. Kurtz credited the proactive executives
with the seeming rise in the number of Chapter 11 cases filed
after a company strikes a deal with senior lenders, a buyer or
some other key constituent.

"Companies are promoting the notion of let's deal with problems
early . . . and do it out of court or implement a fix that can be
executed very quickly in bankruptcy," Mr. Kurtz said, according to
Mr. Morath.

                           *********

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.
