An order for relief has been entered. This notice has important information about the case for creditors, debtors, and trustees, including information about the meeting of creditors and deadlines. Read both pages carefully. The filing of the case imposed an automatic stay against most collection activities. This means that creditors generally may not take action to collect debts from the debtor or the debtor's property. For example, while the stay is in effect, creditors cannot sue, assert a deficiency, repossess property, or otherwise try to collect from the debtor. Creditors cannot demand repayment from the debtor by mail, phone, or otherwise. Creditors who violate the stay can be required to pay actual and punitive damages and attorney's fees. Confirmation of a chapter 11 plan may result in a discharge of debt. A creditor who wants to have a particular debt excepted from discharge may be required to file a complaint in the bankruptcy clerk's office within the deadline specified in this notice.

  • On the Number of Minimal 1-Steiner Trees
    On the Number of Minimal 1-Steiner Trees Boris Aronov Marshall Bern† David Eppstein‡ Abstract We count the number of nonisomorphic geometric minimum spanning trees formed by adding a single point to an n-point set in d-dimensional space, by relating it to a family of 2 convex decompositions of space. The O(nd log2d d n) bound that we obtain signicantly improves previously known bounds and is tight to within a polylogarithmic factor. The minimum Steiner tree of a point set is the tree of minimum total length, spanning the in- put points and possibly having some additional vertices. Georgakopoulos and Papadimitriou [1] dene the minimum 1-Steiner tree as the minimum spanning tree whose set of vertices consists of the input points and exactly one extra point. They describe an algorithm for constructing this tree in the plane by enumerating all combinatorially distinct minimal 1-Steiner trees, that is, trees formed by xing the position of the extra vertex and considering the minimum span- ning tree of the resulting set of points. They give an O(n2) bound on the number of such trees and construct a matching lower bound. Independently, Monma and Suri [3] proved the same bounds in the plane and gave bounds of O(n2d) and (nd) in any dimension d. We signicantly improve Monma and Suri’s upper bounds. We show that the maximum possible number of 2 combinatorially distinct minimal 1-Steiner trees on n points in d-space is O(nd log2d d n) for all dimensions d. Our bounds require—as do the bounds in previous papers—either an assump- tion of general position or a tie-breaking rule, so that the minimum spanning tree is unique; otherwise even in the plane there can be exponentially many distinct topologies.

  • The Pacific Park Brooklyn Project Is the Redevelopment of 22 Acres In
    CREDIT VUW PACIFIC PARK BROOKLYN The Pacific Park Brooklyn project is the redevelopment of 22 acres in downtown Brooklyn that will include approximately 6 million square feet of residential space (6,430 units of affordable and market-rate housing), a state of the art sports and entertainment arena, the Barclays Center, 247,000 square feet of retail use, approximately 336,000 square feet of office space and 8 acres of publicly accessible open space. The project plan permits a program variation which could allow for up to 1.6 million square feet of commercial space. The project also includes major transportation improvements, including a new storage and maintenance facility for the LIRR and a new subway entrance to the Atlantic Terminal Transit Hub, the third largest hub in the City. Atlantic Yards’ Master Plan was designed by Frank Gehry. The development was renamed Pacific Park Brooklyn in July, 2014. DEVELOPER In 2006 New York State approved Forest City Ratner Companies’ master plan for Atlantic Yards. In June of 2014, Greenland, USA and Forest City Ratner Companies closed on a joint venture agreement to develop all phases of the project – excluding Barclays Center and the first residential tower, 461 Dean Street, already under construction – including infrastructure, a permanent MTA rail yard, a platform above the rail yard, future residential units and future commercial high-rise development. Greenland Forest City Partners was chosen as the name of the new development company. SCHEDULE In June of 2014, Greenland Forest City Partners, New York State and New York City reached a deal to accelerate the build-out of Pacific Park Brooklyn.
