THE US drug regulator, Foods and Drugs Administration (FDA), has cleared Lupin’s manufacturing plant in Mandideep (Madhya Pradesh) allowing it to start selling new products made at the plant to the US, the world’s largest drug market.
The company has also got clean chit for two of its two manufacturing facilities located in Aurangabad and Indore (oral solids and oral contraceptives) following a recent inspection by officials of the American drug regulator, the company said.
"We have received official communication from the USFDA on the satisfactory resolution of the warning letter issued earlier to its Mandideep site in May 2009, “Lupin said in a release, adding the facility was reinspected in November 2009. While Lupin could continue to sell its drug made at the plant, the FDA stops approval of new drugs once a warning letter is issued. The plant has also got approval from both the UK and Australian drug regulators.
While no deficiencies was noted in the Aurangabad plant, FDA pointed out one deviation in the Indore plant, which was addressed before the close of the inspection, allowing the company to launch liquids and oral contraceptives in the US, it added.
The company’s share price at the Bombay Stock Exchange closed at 1,420, up 0.4%.
Nilesh Gupta, group president and executive director, Lupin, said that the Mandideep plant was an overhanging issue in the investors mind. The company plans to seek drug approval for about 30-35 new drugs in the US, one-third of which would Para IV application, which gives six-month marketing exclusivity.
Hemant Bakhru, pharma analyst at CLSA said the clearance is a positive development for the company given the problems faced by some Indian companies in the recent past. “Mandideep used to contribute one-third of its US sales, including its best selling brand Suprax,” he added.
A few Indian companies have been hit by regulatory problems in the US. While Ranbaxy is facing a ban on importing products from a couple of its Indian facilities after it failed to addressed deviations noted by FDA in its warning letter, the regulator has also stopped manufacturing at one of Sun Pharma’s plant in the US.THE US drug regulator, Foods and Drugs Administration (FDA), has cleared Lupin’s... more
THE Supreme Court has dismissed the appeal challenging Securities & Exchange Board of India’s order imposing penalty on a firm for noncompliance of the summons issued by the market regulator in connection with the irregularities in the scrip of Shree Yaax Pharma and Cosmetics (SYPCL) during 2004-05. It upheld the order of the Securities Appellate Tribunal which had said that Sebi will not be able to perform its statutory functions and duties if persons connected with the securities market did not responding to the summons of the regulator.
"It’s only summons. Why did you (appellant company) not responded to it. How does regulator discharge its functions," asked a bench comprising justices SH Kapadia and Swatanter Kumar dismissing the appeal of Kajol Impex filed through counsel Sanjay Jain.
Sebi had intiated investigations into the scrips of SYPCL which had fluctuated during June 11, 2004 and August 10, 2005 from a high of Rs 10.20 to Rs 0.48.
In connection with it, Sebi had issued three summons seeking details of the shareholding of the company as on March 31, 2004 along with other informations. The company, however, had filed consent application.
The adjucating officer on April 17, 2009 had imposed a penalty of Rs 25 lakh on the company saying it failed to comply with the summons issued on August 4, October 10, and November 16 of 2005 in accordance with provisions of Section 15A of the Sebi Act, 1992.
On October 8, 2009, the Securities Appellate Tribuanl had dismissed the appeal of the company.
"The market regulator under the provisions of the Act (Sebi Act, 1992) will not be able to perform its statutory functions and duties if persons connected with the securities market throttle the investigations by not responding to the summons issued to them,” the tribunal had said.

They made their vows and exchanged rings in front of family and friends before leaving under a shower of confetti.
But then things rapidly turned sour for the 23-year-old bride and her groom. They began arguing on the steps of the town hall where they had wed.
And she demanded a divorce - ten minutes after getting married. She dashed back inside and pleaded with the deputy mayor to annul her marriage to her 25-year-old husband.
Fighting then broke out between the couple's families outside the building in Tours in the Loire Valley, France, on Saturday.
A witness said: 'The two mother-in-laws were punching and scratching each other, and officers had to prise them apart.'
Officials were unable to annul the marriage and the couple will now have to apply for a divorce.
Deputy mayor Frangois Lafourcade, who conducted the ceremony, told local paper La Nouvelle Republique: 'For a while everything was going smoothly, the room was decked with flowers and everyone was smartly dressed and looking forward to happy occasion.
'During the ceremony, I went through the vows and looking back, the bride did say "yes" rather hesitantly.
'After it was over I pronounced them man and wife and they all left the room.
'I stayed behind and ten minutes later the bride came running back looking very flustered and insisted I divorce her on the spot.'
One guest at the wedding said police were then called to break up a violent punch-up outside the building between the families.
He added: 'The two mother-in-laws were punching and scratching each other, and officers had to prise them apart.
'The bride was guided out of the building later on her own under a police escort.'
Tours town hall's registry division said later it was unable to annul the marriage and the couple would now need to apply for a divorce.
A spokesman said: 'The only way we could have declared that ceremony invalid was if they had not consented willingly, if one of them was underage, or if there was a case of incest or bigamy.
'But this was apparently not the case, so they are going to have to find lawyers and apply for a divorce through the courts just like everyone else.'
The Facts below clearly show that homicide was committed to cover up criminal acts of an organized well funded covert criminal plot to commit voter fraud.
Joseph Stalin said:
“It is enough that the people know there was an election. The people who cast the votes decide nothing. The people who count the votes decide everything.”
So then why are the people behind these capital crimes and, criminal acts not been prosecuted? These people today are free to walk the streets continuing their ongoing illegal activities and acts of treason against the citizens of United States.
As voters, the citizens who voted for you voted you into office for a reason... "to correct the wrongdoings and criminal acts of the past administration." Not, to continue with the covert coverups and on going status-quo of the past eight years. We expect and, also demand more.
Today, we find ourselves at a critical turning point... Our Nation is only as great the integrity of it's laws, the fairness of our Judicial System and, as strong as the pillars of our Constitution...
As citizens, we need to realize, that our nation has reached that point where our Judicial System has been twisted, bought and subverted by large corporations to where it no longer protects the rights of "All People" as was intended by our founding fathers. We have reached the point... where our country is no longer... "Our Country" anymore.
As a nation, we can't let these crimes; as mentioned by Clint Curtis and others in the attached documentary continue to go on unpunished. For the sake of justice and our credibility and our Nation. YOU, Mr. Obama were elected by the Citizens of this land to give you the power as Commander and Chief and as President " To mandate change". To act... To provide leadership to save our Democracy and our Nation from the acts of corporate and judicial misconduct and criminal corruption. A mandate given to you... to give the country back to it's people, " all its people". A clear mandate to balance the scales of Justice. A clear mandate to see that laws be enforced and crimes be punished and not overlooked with a wink and a nod to the highest bidder... as it is today.
Before you, is an opportunity to do Great Things... An historic opportunity... that should not be waisted.

Homicide & Murder to cover up the Criminal Acts of Voter Fraud
The Clint Curtis Story is an incredible documentary which tells the story of a computer programmer who was contacted by a private company-Yang Enterprises- who have ties to accused chinese spies, to write a program that could be used to rig elections...what follows is the breaking of a massive conspiracy in which there would be hard evidence of vote manipulation via electronic voting machines-whether using Curtis's program or the twenty year old bootloader hack which, as show by students at Princeton University, could be loaded onto any of these machines in less than a minute; the sketchy firing of two employees-one being Curtis himself- from the Florida Dept of Transportation; corrupt ties to leading members of Diebold-one of two companies responsible for vote counting in the US; and a dead Florida DOT investigator- Raymond Lemme RIP- who was privately investigating the claims made by Curtis...who conveniently commited suicide in Georgia, where autopsies are not done on suicide victims, as opposed to Florida where an autopsy would have been automatic. What really happened in 2000 to Al Gore and Ohio & Florida, and again in 2004.....now you can finally know the truth, and it ain't pretty! 7 partsDear President Obama,

OUR WORLD HAS MANY HEROS WORTHY OF RECIEVING A "COURAGE" AWARD... MICHAEL VICK IS NOT ONE OF THEM.
THE 'COURAGE' AWARD SHOULD BE TO THE MEN AND WOMAN WHO VOLUNTEERED THEMSELVES TO SAVING THE DOGS THAT SURVIVED THE HORRIFIC CRUELTY INFLICTED BY MICHAEL VICK.
THE P.O.S., MICHAEL VICK, HAS NEVER ONCE APOLOGIZED FOR THE PAIN, SUFFERING AND BARBARIC DEATHS THAT HE CAUSED TO THE DOGS.
When it was announced last month that Michael Vick was to be awarded the Ed Block Award for courage, I expressed my utter disbelief and despair. I encouraged readers to post their reactions as well, and I promised to send all to the Ed Block Foundation.
As of yet, I have not received word from anyone at the Foundation. However, I did come across this page on the Ed Block website, meant to serve as a response to the public outcry around Vick's nomination:
I couldn't have been more disappointed as I read the Foundation's defense of Vick's receipt of the award:
"...Michael Vick has been working with the Philadelphia Eagles and the Humane Society of the United States to promote awareness of the evils and dangers associated with dog fighting. As someone who paid a large debt for his role in this lifestyle he is uniquely equipped to educate at risk youths as to their perils..."
Granted, serving prison time does equip Vick to speak first-hand about life in prison. But it doesn't necessarily make someone a good role model, sincere advocate, or a changed person. Serving time for the crimes he committed did not take courage--or even a sense of duty. Vick had no choice in the matter; his sentence was mandated by law.
In an attempt to validate its position on Vick's award conferment, the Foundation goes on to offer quotes from other NFL luminaries.
Philadelphia Eagles coach Andy Reid notes: "He's obviously very well-respected by his teammates."
Perhaps that says more about his teammates than it does about Vick. For someone who brings with him such an appalling history, earning the respect of your teammates ought to be the bare minimum. That respect is then the foundation from which to go forward, the first step in a long road. Not grounds for an award for courage.
Nor was Tony Dungy--Vick's mentor and considered by many to be the NFL's moral compass--disconcerted by the award: "... There are things that players know that each other are going through that maybe the public doesn't know... So I know it's one Michael is proud of, and there didn't seem to be any debate on that team who should get it."
When is someone affiliated with one of these organizations going to show real courage? When are they going to step up and say the right thing? That is, that Michael Vick has a long way to go. Simply attending practice, showing up for games, and not getting arrested is not sufficient cause for commendation. Millions of people across the country go to work and stay out of trouble on a daily basis. It's not a matter of courage, but one of necessity.
Neither does a handful of PR-mandated, 10-minute speaking engagements--nor a large financial donation made as part of a plea bargain--show any particular depth of character. Courage is personally ensuring - without the promise of fame and fortune in the balance - that those around you live free of terror and harm.
HSUS says that "[Vick's] story is the strongest possible example of why dog fighting is a dead end." But assigning Vick hero status sends our youth quite the opposite message. Instead, let's honor those who do the right thing from the beginning (LaDainian Tomlinson, Jarrod Cooper, Tony Gonzalez).
Let's teach our kids that avoiding violence from the beginning is what deserves real recognition. Attempting to redeem yourself after years of inflicting terrible torture does not take courage - it's one's only choice.
Ultimately, I hope that Vick does make good on his word to help more dogs than he's harmed. My intent is not to stop him from him doing that - rather, it is simply to raise the bar. Our heroes must behave heroically in order to be deemed courageous. Showing up is not enough.

A New Jersey man on trial for growing 17 marijuana plants on his property was found not guilty yesterday of the most serious charge against him, that of operating a drug production facility, which carries a potential 20-year sentence. But multiple sclerosis-sufferer John Wilson, 37, still faces the possibility of five to 10 years in prison, because the jury found him guilty of second-degree manufacturing and third-degree drug possession. It's possible that Wilson avoided conviction on the most serious charge because he cast doubt on the credibility of state troopers who arrested him in August 2008—with a little help from the National Guard.
Wilson maintains that he was growing the marijuana because it helps alleviate his MS symptoms, but Superior Court Judge Robert Reed had ruled that the validity of medical marijuana was a matter for the Legislature and inadmissible in court. Nevertheless, Wilson was able to make one mention of his condition during his testimony on Wednesday, when he contradicted the state troopers who swore they did not discuss why he was growing the drug. "I told them I was not a drug dealer and I was using the marijuana to treat my M.S.," Wilson said.
Juror Mark Imbriani, who is actually a criminal defense lawyer in Somerville and a former assistant prosecutor in Union County, tells the Star-Ledger that some jurors "didn’t feel as though (the detectives) were being candid when they responded to those questions." The trial prompted sick marijuana users to protest outside the courthouse, and two state senators who sponsored a medical marijuana bill have been seeking a pardon for Wilson. "This case has been a horrible waste of taxpayers’ dollars and just a cruel and inhumane use of prosecutorial powers, which is one of the things pardons are designed to overcome," New Jersey State Senator Ray Lesniak said.
Speaking of wasting taxpayer dollars, it also emerged during the trial that the military helped bust the sickly pot grower. Deputy Attorney General Russell Curley told the jury during closing arguments that the plants were spotted by a National Guard helicopter because they were 6 feet tall: "These weren’t plants. These were trees." And before his arrest, Wilson was surprised to see a helicopter hovering over his two-bedroom farm house, testifying that "it looked like some sort of Army, or I guess National Guard helicopter."A New Jersey man on trial for growing 17 marijuana plants on his property was found... more
Florida's judges and lawyers should no longer "friend" each other on Facebook, the popular social networking site, according to a ruling from the state's Judicial Ethics Advisory Committee.
At least one South Florida judge warned her pals with a Facebook status update that they could be "unfriended," and the ruling has prompted others to do the same. The committee ruled Nov. 17 that online "friendships" could create the impression that lawyers are in a special position to influence their judge friends.
The committee did conclude that a judge can post comments on another judge's site and that during judicial elections, a judge's campaign can have "fans" that include lawyers. And the ruling doesn't single out Facebook.
"Although Facebook has been used as an example in this opinion, the holding of the opinion would apply to any social networking site which requires the member of the site to approve the listing of a 'friend' or contact on the member's site," the opinion said.
A few on the committee dissented, saying judges should be allowed to have Facebook friends because those relationships are more like "a contact or acquaintance."
Although only the Florida Supreme Court can actually mandate what judges can do, most will likely follow the ruling out of an abundance of caution, said Craig Waters, spokesman for the Florida Supreme Court.
Judge Thomas McGrady, the chief of the sixth judicial circuit in Pinellas County, said he understands why the committee came to its conclusion: Judges need to appear impartial.Florida's judges and lawyers should no longer "friend" each other on... more

An 18-year Counterintelligence and Counterterrorism Manager for the FBI has called for a Special Counsel to be appointed to investigate the allegations of FBI translator-turned-whistleblower Sibel Edmonds. John M. Cole, who now works as an intelligence contractor for the Air Force, made his comments during an audio interview released late last week with radio journalist Peter B. Collins.
He also offered a detailed insider's look at the concerns among high-level officials inside the Bureau as Edmonds' disturbing allegations began coming to light back in 2002, before they would be quashed for seven long years by the Bush Administration's unprecedented use of the so-called "State Secrets Privilege" to gag her.
Earlier last week, following the publication of a remarkable American Conservative magazine cover story interview with Edmonds --- detailing a broad bribery, blackmail, and espionage conspiracy said to have been carried out between current and former members of the U.S. Congress, high-ranking State and Defense Department officials and covert operatives from Turkey and Israel, resulting in the theft and sale of nuclear weapons technology on the foreign black market --- Cole had been quoted by the magazine confirming one of Edmonds' key allegations.
"I am fully aware of the FBI's decade-long investigation of" Marc Grossman, he said in response to the AmCon article/interview. Grossman had served as the third-highest ranking official in the Bush State Department and was alleged by Edmonds in the interview, and in a sworn, video-taped deposition a month earlier, to have been the U.S. ringleader for a massive Turkish espionage scandal reaching through the halls of power and into top-secret nuclear facilities around the country to the benefit of allies and enemies alike. Cole said that the FBI's counterintelligence probe "ultimately was buried and covered up," and that he believes it is "long past time" for an investigation of the case to "bring about accountability."
In his subsequent interview with Collins last week (audio and text excerpts posted below) Cole elaborated on those comments in much greater detail, noting that Edmonds has been "one hundred percent right on the money, on the mark" and confirming the existence of an "ongoing and detailed effort by Turkey to develop influence in the United States" through various illegal activities.
"Yes, I can confirm that," Cole told Collins, "That's true."
The FBI veteran executive also offered an insider's account of the panic that ensued inside the highest echelons of the bureau following Edmonds' first disclosure of information in 2002, recounting how an executive assistant director admitted to him at the time, just after the story first broke, "Well, all I know is that everything that Sibel is stating is true. I read her file. Everything she stated is, in fact, accurate."
Cole further describes how the concerns about Edmonds ultimately led to the Bush Administration's two-time use of the Draconian "State Secrets Privilege" in hopes of keeping her extraordinary information from becoming public. "Everybody at headquarters level at the bureau knew that what she was saying was extremely accurate."
"I know they didn't want her to go out and speak about it at all," Cole revealed, "and I know they were trying to figure out ways of keeping this whole thing quiet, because they didn't want Sibel to come out."
He also offered information which directly counters one of the criticisms of Edmonds' allegations as frequently offered by skeptics. Namely, that as a short time FBI contract translator --- even though she was tasked to review some seven years of counterintelligence wiretaps made from 1996 to 2002 --- she couldn't have had enough understanding of the full scope of the investigations to understand what was really going on.

GIRALDI: And Grossman received money as a result. In one case, you said that a State Department colleague went to pick up a bag of money…
EDMONDS: $14,000
GIRALDI: What kind of information was Grossman giving to foreign countries? Did he give assistance to foreign individuals penetrating U.S. government labs and defense installations as has been reported? It’s also been reported that he was the conduit to a group of congressmen who become, in a sense, the targets to be recruited as “agents of influence.”
EDMONDS: Yes, that’s correct. Grossman assisted his Turkish and Israeli contacts directly, and he also facilitated access to members of Congress who might be inclined to help for reasons of their own or could be bribed into cooperation. The top person obtaining classified information was Congressman Tom Lantos. A Lantos associate, Alan Makovsky worked very closely with Dr. Sabri Sayari in Georgetown University, who is widely believed to be a Turkish spy. Lantos would give Makovsky highly classified policy-related documents obtained during defense briefings for passage to Israel because Makovsky was also working for the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC).
GIRALDI: Makovsky is now working for the Washington Institute for Near Eastern Policy, a pro-Israeli think tank.
EDMONDS: Yes. Lantos was at the time probably the most outspoken supporter of Israel in Congress. AIPAC would take out the information from Lantos that was relevant to Israel, and they would give the rest of it to their Turkish associates. The Turks would go through the leftovers, take what they wanted, and then try to sell the rest. If there were something relevant to Pakistan, they would contact the ISI officer at the embassy and say, “We’ve got this and this, let’s sit down and talk.” And then they would sell it to the Pakistanis.
GIRALDI: ISI—Pakistani intelligence—has been linked to the Pakistani nuclear proliferation program as well as to al-Qaeda and the Taliban.LINK TO FULL ARTICLE: http://amconmag.com/article/2009/nov/01/00006/
