Past TenseYesterday, like allthings, does not belong to usand it never will.
Growing Pains ManagementWhen I was four years old,my mother told me that the sky was the limit,so I ran face first into thepine tree in my front yardto get the ground knocked out of me.When I was thirteen,I busted my head open in band class.In the clinic, I wiped the bloodthat flooded down my face with my forearmand made the Vice Principal vomit.Since then, I've made a habit out of makingeverything dangerous.When I was seventeen, Kevin put a copyof HOWL face down on my desk and told menot to tell anyone. I didn't.He still lost his job.Now, I'm twenty two and I don't knowwhat I want to be when I grow up.My hair is thinning faster than mypatience is thinning faster than myblood is thinning faster than mywallet. I buy time at the ATMand gamble it away.It's all maintenance now, like so manycar parts creaking. I haven't put onthat many miles but when you floor itfor twenty two years straightthere's going to be some damage.Damnit— there
ScavengersWe tend to circlelike vultures who've forgottenthat death brings us life.
Evening NewsWe worked our tired eyesover photographed faces blurredby movement and light.We imagined they were laughing,their mouths open, invitingbreath to come inside. We couldn't know their voices,so much like ours (hushed whispers)pleading for help on the other side.
Lullaby"I've been waiting my entire life to tell you that I'm dying and I figured I'd finally get it over with.So here I am, carving forgive meinto my teeth, so every time that I speakI can still say that I'm sorry.More years have passed in the last than I care to rememberbut I could never forget:In eighth grade my chorus teacher always told me,'Michael, you'll never be good enough.'and it always excited me. It reminded me of my mother.On the last day of school she smiled,her teeth jagged like a train wreck,she didn't say a word,but I knew exactly what she meant.In high school I fell in love with a roadside bomb waiting to be detonated by a passing glance.Every time she blew up,she'd pick the pieces of herself off of bathroom floorsmixed with the medicine she never needed. She hadThe Disappointment.One day she caught me staring, smiled, walked over, and hugged me...she smelled like a lonely night.As she pulled away she looked me dead in the eyes and said,'Don't worry abou
BurningWe burned the book on the gray stepsof your back porch. When your fathercame home, I hid –he found me sweeping up the ashes.Sunday morning came to passand the cross above your bedhung crooked. I wonderedif you'd ever fix it.You took it down instead.
SurrenderThere are words I don't recognizeon the walls of my contentment.I'm not sure what language they're inor who wrote them, but I do knowthat they say something about surrender.I've given up more timesthan I've given anything else.That's how you found me. Curled up,knees to my chest, trembling. And youin your good nature mistook my weaknessfor prayer.
When You Reach God's Summer Hometry the lock. If it opens, you're not breaking and entering,you're just an unexpected guest. Set the tablewith cheap china and treat the roomlike your deathbed. Don't lay in it.You'll have plenty of time for that.
MasaryktownAfter the seventh time trying to pronounce it,people always ask me, "What's in Masaryktown?"I tell them: Old people and meth labsI can spot them pretty easily,the old people –and the meth labs.A few years ago my friend Peter's house shookfrom an explosion. Good neighbors.It's a place with two gas stations andone Cuban restaurant, where everyone knows each other,even the hooker, like one big family that doesn'tlike each other very much.Our coat of arms?Busch beer cans.Favorite mode of transportation?Lawn mower.Our smiles?Missing teeth.Masaryktown is one big DUI waiting to happen.But behind all that, there's something…like a memory. A memory untouched,like dirt roads you can watch age underneath your feet,like the crumbling bridge my cousin jumped off of and broke his ankle,like the graveyard filled with tombstones, covered with namesno one can pronounce. Where the stars, look like stars.Light pollution never

Seeking Your StarMarch 20, 2014Some stars burn so brightly, they burst before they see the cosmos unfold. You shared the warmth of your glow with as many as you could before you rose too high for the sky to handle and scattered sacred stardust across it. Your legacy is seen in constellations.A few days laterMom called me to the window today to show me a lone star in a cloudless sky. She said she thought of you.Mother's Day, 2014Nana told me at lunch today that she heard footsteps in the room where she keeps your urn. She went upstairs to greet Papa several times, thinking the footsteps were his, but found him sleeping. Our waitress gave each woman at our booth a carnation. Outside, sunlight adorned our skin and held us.I could have sworn I felt you holding us, too.June 21, 2014I took a plane out of Chicago to get back home. The sun set mid-flight, tie-dying the sky in orange and red. As we rose over the clouds, my jetlagged eyes rested upon a lone star pinned against

Passing ShipsIt was just like you to show up late. Honestly, it was just like you. It was the hottest day of the year so far and every green space was full of people trying to get their fix. Daylight junkies. When you live beneath grey clouds for most of your life it starts to take its toll and you take your highs where you can get them.I was a bundle of nerves, as I always was when it came to you, picking at grass and trying to pretend that the fact you were late was totally cool. Instinct told me differently and I knew as soon as you graced me with your presence that things had changed. It was written all over your face - guilt, guilt, guilt - but I was naive and thought you were just shy.I can't believe that it's been so long since you cracked me open under star spangled skies. I can't believe it's been almost a decade yet I'm still just as aware of you as I was before. They say that time heals but I still feel the wound, fresh and bleeding, beneath my skin. I still can't resist picking at it

Decades had come and gone, and for Russ McElveen it seemed that there were important people in his family he would never see again.

After 60 years he made contact with two of his sisters and after 45 years he was reconnect with a son. Have you ever thought that someone was gone from your life forever.
How's your heart?
What difference do you make to the Kingdom work God is doing around you? Some may feel they don't contribute much, but let's remember all the members of the body are essential for the body to function properly. Just because you don't preach or teach doesn't mean you're unimportant. If you are serving God, using your spirit given gifts and serving for the honor and glory of God, you are essential! When you consider the ministry of Jesus, it is easy to focus on those out in front such as Jesus and the disciples. But ...
"Dearly Beloved…" That's the way I started out my last wedding sermon. I know it's a little bit of a throwback. We don't call too many people "beloved" anymore, but I hope you know what I mean. Today, I want to think about why that's a perfect way to greet one another…"beloved".
What a prison self consciousness can be. When I think of those "would be" Christians if they could just find someone to express the love of God and acceptance to them. In Luke 7, we read the story of a self-righteous Pharisee who invites Jesus to dinner and an encounter with a prostitute. (Odd mix I know) but it is kind of like Christians in the world with judgmental spirits or worse how sinners are made to feel (if) or when they walk into the church building. You have heard people say, "Well if I went to church the ceiling ...

Doubt happens to the best of us. I know we sometimes put people on a pedestal like famous preachers, authors or even mature Christians we know and then criticize ourselves with comparisons like "I bet they are too spiritually mature to doubt like me. I wish I was more like them." But the truth is, they do have times of doubt because we all do. We have times of doubt when tragedies strike for no reason or prayers go unanswered or we get mistreated for trying to do the right thing, etc. We wonder if anyone else struggles with the ...
You call yourself a Christian, right? You do realize that just by doing that, you are taking on a very specific job description. You are now "His witnesses". You are the "light of the world" and the "salt of the earth". You are "Christ's ambassadors", a "holy priesthood" you are to be "Declaring the praises of him who called you out of the darkness into his wonderful light". Do I have to go on? Realize it - you have a job, whether you like it or not, you are blessed to serve. There is no such thing as a part ...
Is the "Golden Rule" biblical? Yes, but not because it is a "golden rule" but rather because it is a "Kingdom principle." Many people miss the point here. They want to live by the golden rule (and that's fine), but not really according to the Kingdom rule. Ah yes, we are talking about the pickers and the choosers. Jesus asked it this way: "Why do you call me, 'Lord, Lord,' and do not do what I say?" (Lk. 6:46) In other words; "Why do you call me Lord when in reality I am not your Lord?" or, "Why ...
The church is failing in a big way! Yes I am aware God has, and continues to use, the church to reach the lost and minister to the world in mighty ways. However, one of the greatest and most foundational tasks given to the church by Christ is one of the things the church is neglecting the most - "discipleship." I have often said, "We are outraged at the idea of someone abandoning a newborn and we should be, but yet the church does this everyday to those who are newly born again."

Jesus said, "The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few" (Matthew 9:38). Is that still true?
In our family, traditions determine how we do certain things, talk certain ways, and observe certain rituals. Some traditions go back many generations, and some are traditions that we have started in our immediate family.
When Donald Rumsfeld was Secretary of Defense, he coined some phrases about knowledge that apply far beyond military matters.

"O LORD, you have examined my heart and know everything about me."
Psalm 119: 105 (New Living Translation) Your word is a lamp to guide my feet and a light for my path.
Has it ever dawned on you that what you are about to say to someone may be the last words you ever get to speak to them? Does that change anything in what you say, or in how you say it?
I have discovered this principle of life - that when I want to do what is right, I inevitably do what is wrong. I love God's law with all my heart. But there is another power within me that is at war with my mind. This power makes me a slave to the sin that is still within me. Oh, what a miserable person I am! Who will free me from this life that is dominated by sin and death? Thank God! The answer is in Jesus Christ our Lord. So you see how it is: In my mind I ...
Last week, we looked at the story of Zacchaeus (Luke 19:1-10) and heard Jesus tell that sinful tax collector "Today, salvation has come to this house."
Change is inevitable.
There are certain "todays" that matter more than others.
The Bible uses a bunch of stories to tell us why Jesus came.

1 Peter 3:15b-16 "And if someone asks about your Christian hope, always be ready to explain it. But do this in a gentle and respectful way. Keep your conscience clear. Then if people speak against you, they will be ashamed when they see what a good life you live because you belong to Christ."
Last week we wrestled with the question of how we know if our faith is strong. We empathized with those disciples on the road to Emmaus on Easter Sunday evening (Luke 24:13-35) shaken to their very core, doubting everything they thought they believed. But then Jesus came along and showed them who he was.

The board thinks the team can be No. 1 in one of the formats in about half a decade. Going by the recent showing against Ireland, they have another think coming

News : Pybus wants more matches for WI domestic cricketers
News : Gibson happy with West Indies fight
News : Gibson, Pybus to plot way forward for West Indies in Tests
Players/Officials: Richard Pybus | Darren Sammy | Ottis Gibson
Teams: West Indies
Only a couple of days after the administrative leaders of West Indies cricket spoke with heady optimism about the future, the team's two T20 internationals against Ireland at Sabina Park last Wednesday and Friday brought them back to the present, stark reality.
The reigning World Twenty20 champions were beaten by six wickets in the first and, after the indignity of 96 for 9 in the second, were made to scrap down to the last ball to keep the Irish to 85 for 8.
The victory, by 11 runs, did no more than assuage the humiliation. These were opponents, not even with full ICC status, who couldn't make it past the qualifying round in the recent regional Nagico Super50 tournament.
In the interim, the Irish remained in Trinidad and prepared for the official Sabina assignment with two matches; they were beaten in the second by the Trinidad & Tobago B team.
It was too much for even the most ardent West Indies' supporter to take. Patrick Rampersad, an executive member of the Trinidad and Tobago board, reflected the wide consensus. "You are the world champions and being beaten is not out of this world but being beaten by a minnow like Ireland, in your own backyard, is not acceptable," he said. "Imagine: a T&T B team defeated this Ireland side."
At least Rampersad took an interest. Thousands of others have long since abandoned hope.
The brief Irish interlude ended with an ODI at Sabina on Sunday. It is the West Indies' first international series since the chaotic, concurrent tours of India and New Zealand where they endured defeat in four of five Tests; three ended in three days, one in four.
The Irish embarrassment at Sabina was the fifth successive T20 loss, following two to Pakistan in St Vincent last year and two against New Zealand in January.
Undeterred by such irrefutable evidence, West Indies Cricket Board president Dave Cameron and chief executive officer Michael Muirhead were both upbeat about the future at a media conference at the Trinidad Hyatt last Monday. "As the West Indies team continues to regain strength, the WICB will be able to negotiate more for our brand, which is a most significant consideration," Cameron said, once more reiterating the reasons why the WICB backed the contentious proposal for a takeover of the ICC's leadership by India, England and Australia.
With the increased revenue that would result from the ICC shake-up and what he termed "a fortified development programme", West Indies would be "nowhere near" the No. 10 position in the Test rankings that would entail a demotion/promotion playoff against the top team from the Associates' Intercontinental Cup. But given recent results, West Indies' drop to No. 10 is not as completely out of the question as Cameron makes out.
|Richard Pybus' appointment is an indirect, but obvious, response to the self-evident truth, as stated by Darren Sammy following the series in New Zealand, that "we cannot continue like this"
Muirhead was even more forthright than his boss in his prediction. He was "fully confident" that West Indies would be "in the driver's seat… at No. 1 in at least one form of the game" by the end of the current cycle of the FTP, in 2020. Such a position that would give them more power in negotiations with other ICC members. Considering they are presently No. 8 in the ICC's Test and ODI rankings, it would require a remarkable turnaround to fulfil the assured expectations of Cameron and Muirhead.
There certainly has been no sign of West Indies continuing to "regain strength"; whenever they have taken one step forward over the past 20 years, it is inevitably followed by two back. Having gone up to No. 6 on the Test ladder last October, they are now back at No. 8.
The WICB is pinning its hopes for a revival on the overall plan of the new director of cricket, the Englishman Richard Pybus, who was appointed last November. It includes a complete review of systems, from grassroots and schools through to first-class and international cricket. While the WICB hierarchy puts a brave face on the team's present plight, Pybus' appointment is an indirect, but obvious, response to the self-evident truth, as stated by Darren Sammy following the series in New Zealand, that "we cannot continue like this".
The Test and T20 captain foresaw "tough decisions" for Pybus and for head coach Ottis Gibson. "Some careers are on the line," he said.
Gibson's opposite opinion was instructive. "We can get home, let the dust settle and assess where we are," was his counter to Sammy's plea for urgent action. "We can come up with a plan, but also decide who the right personnel are."
The WICB allowed the dust to settle for five weeks before holding its debriefing last Monday with the relevant tour individuals. As it usually does, it then swept the dust under the carpet and continued with life as usual.
The selectors (the same panel that chose an identical squad for New Zealand to the one that had been thrashed in entirely different conditions in India) predictably stuck to their tried and trusted. No one's career was on the line.
Chris Gayle had not played a match since tearing his hamstring in India last November 21; Marlon Samuels and Sammy were sidelined with contrasting injuries after the first ODI in New Zealand on Boxing Day. Yet all three were included for the series against Ireland; the only newcomer was fast bowler Miguel Cummins, who wasn't picked by his own Barbados selectors for the preceding Super50 tournament.
It was ill-judged complacency. The thinking, clearly, was that Ireland were of a standard that would ease Gayle, Samuels and Sammy back into action without any pressure. West Indies are in no position right now to underestimate any opponent. Not even by 2020, when, according to the CEO, they'll be No. 1 and demanding top dollar for their brand.

Butternut Squash Ravioli
I'm looking for Butternut Squash Ravioli.....not at a restaurant, but fresh made ravioli to take home and prepare myself. I thought Whole Foods would have some, but no luck. I did get some of their Mushroom Ravioli, which was good....but I really want to find some with Butternut Squash!
Montgomery or Howard County spots to find some?
check at harris teeter.
and did you see this?:
thread mentions restos AND places to purchase for home cooking...
Not in Motgomery or Howard County but if you find yourself in DC I believe the pasta stand at Eastern Market has this type of ravioli.
I believe that Cornucopia in Bethesda (8000 Norfolk in the Woodmont Triangle) has butternut squash ravioli. I'm not sure if it's fresh or frozen though.
re: fishie
fishie, you gonna leave us hangin'?
re: alkapal
Sorry got distracted by (blech) work. Roast 2 butternuts and 3 large sweet potatoes, (face down on a cookie sheet). Scoop them out in a large bowl, wait for them to cool a bit, then mash with a fork and fingers. Don't want it pureed, just spoon-able. Add 1-1.5 cups of good (the imported stuff) parm, and a few good shakes of nutmeg and some sea salt . For the pasta I double sifted regular flour-not 00. The proportion is 1 c flour to 3 large eggs. I made a walnut sage pesto with using some walnut oil. It was deelis
re: fishie
thank you, fishie! sounds really savory!
I know you asked for Mont. or Howard Co., but the best fresh butternut ravioli that I have found to buy in DC is from one of the inside vendors at Eastern Market (newly relocated in a temporary building).
Not Montgomery or Howard County, but I have gotten them at the Italian Store on Lee Hwy in Arlington.
Have you tried the Italian Gourmet Market on Darnestown Road (Rt. 28) in Gaithersburg? Its in the strip center where Fuddruckers is.
I love butternut squash ravioli ! I just bought a package at Costco of all places, in the freezer section. It was yummy. As good as fresh, I thought/
BTW, there is a recipe over at food network. com for a butternut squash lasagna that uses amaretto cookies that is divine !

Concert for Okla. tornado victims draws big names
NORMAN, Okla. (AP) - Some of country music's biggest stars, including Garth Brooks, Toby Keith and many others with ties to Oklahoma, played a sold-out show Saturday at the University of Oklahoma to raise money for the victims of the recent tornadoes that strafed the state.
Organizers of the concert, which was held in the school's Gaylord Family-Oklahoma Memorial Stadium, estimated that nearly 65,000 people braved the searing heat to watch the show and show their support for the victims, the Tulsa World reported ( http://bit.ly/12NCAvn).
The money raised from ticket sales benefits the United Way of Central Oklahoma, which established a fund to aid victims of the May storms that killed dozens of people.
A separate benefit concert last month hosted by Oklahoma native country music star Blake Shelton raised more than $6 million in donations and pledges.
Saturday's concert was organized by Keith, who was still playing to a packed house seven hours into the show.
Brooks, who was the biggest draw, took to the stage Saturday afternoon to a rousing ovation.
"Today the healing begins," said Brooks.
Brooks played "Two of a Kind, Workin' on a Full House" and "Papa Loved Mama." His wife, Trisha Yearwood, joined him for a duet, "In Another's Eyes."
"God bless you, Oklahoma!" Yearwood yelled, according to the World.
Some concertgoers said their experiences with tornadoes or someone affected by the recent storms drew them to the fund-raising event.
Marie Carter, a physician whose office is in Oklahoma City, said she watched helplessly as a twister moved through Moore, coming within a half-mile of her own home.
"It was very scary for a lot of us," Carter said, according to the World. "We've been out there helping our friends, digging through the rubble, and because we're so close, we've had a lot of patients come in who lost everything who have symptoms of PTSD. It's almost surreal, but we wanted to come out and support this cause."

Think About It……… July 9, 2014
So, you work the waters of the river into a froth casting your Coho fly again and again and finally you hook a really nice red salmon. The fish puts up a really good long fight and you finally work it into shore and into your net. Whoops! You'll have to throw it back into the river because the Alaska Board of Fish and Game and its paid regulators say so. According to them, that beautiful Red Sockeye Salmon has been foul hooked. The decades old regulation that demands that any salmon you catch must be hooked inside the mouth has come into play.
Many feel that is absolutely the worst fishing regulation ever foisted on the people of Alaska. Why? Well, first of all, a Red Salmon will very rarely if ever bite a fly as our other salmon will. So, when a fisherman feels that little tug on the line and tries to set the hook the fish will more than likely be stabbed with the hook in every other part of its body except the mouth. It takes a very long time for a hard fighting Red hooked in the belly, back or tail to finally be landed. A salmon "snagged" if you will is able to fight the pole and line much longer than one hooked in the mouth. Consequently, all of its energy intended for swimming up the river to finally spawn is all gone. Many of these fish are caught a number of times and if they finally reach their spawning beds are too weak to complete the task. Many other reds are hooked, fought and then break free. That's why you see some fish with several hooks imbedded in their flesh.
Secondly, river bank degradation is a really big problem on our Kenai and Kasilof rivers and allowing fishermen to stay on the river, releasing a great number of Red Salmon before they finally get their "legal" limit means much more bank degradation than our rivers can bear.
It's time to remove this worst of all our fishing regulations and allow "snagging" of red salmon.
Un-sportsman like they say? Ridiculous! How sporting is a big dip net? How sporting in a 150 fathom gill net? It's time for our Fish and Game Board and Fish Wardens to get real. Repeal this stupid anti-snagging regulation.
Allow folks to harvest their red salmon any way they like snagging in the mouth or any other part of the body. Then adopt a new set of regulations:
1) Once a fish is landed you must keep it and not throw it back.
2) Once you have your limit of three fish you must leave the river and not return till the next day.
3) No fishing for other species of fish is allowed for that day
So, with those changes everyone wins. Fishermen harvest their limit of reds quickly and easily. Our valuable red salmon reach their spawning beds in excellent shape to complete their life cycle. Our river banks remain in excellent shape because long periods of use, each day, by fisherman comes to a halt and river bank degradation is held to an absolute minimum.
Meanwhile, I wouldn't hold your breath until the regulation is changed. In the meantime yours truly will continue to catch his limit of three reds per day anyway he can, leave the river, and go home.

When I was a teenager in the 70's and decades ago Old Bearbait himself use to chase me and once busted me for snagging, figuring I couldn't get in anymore trouble I argued with him about stupid the snagging regulation is.

A few weeks ago, Anne and I visited Norfolk Botanical Garden with some friends and stumbled across this gorgeous wildflower meadow. It's on the way to the Butterfly House, which is one of our favorites, so we must have passed it a million times but never in full bloom. What a surprise! We immediately stopped and explored -- the little gazebo and fountain bubbling away in a corner, the handmade homes for native bees tucked here and there, and thousands of gorgeous orange and purple flowers in between. We've already tested it, it's the perfect place for a picnic, and just to soak up some beauty before the cold weather comes and turns everything gray and brown.
Have a great weekend! And if you're looking for something to do, stop by the base for the Norfolk Fleet Fest tomorrow! There will be ship tours and live entertainment and best of all, it's free! More details at Fun and Free Hampton Roads.

Biography: Early Life
Jim Henson—a television pioneer, an innovator in puppetry, technology and visual arts, and a performer—literally brought to life some of the most memorable characters ever—including the world's most famous frog, Kermit. Henson's impact on entertainment, education and culture continues to this day.
Born September 24, 1936 in Greenville, Mississippi, Henson spent his early years in Leland, Miss. Throughout his youth, Jim had an interest in art and, later, television. When he was in the fifth grade, the Henson family moved to Maryland. There he, often with his older brother Paul, experimented with a variety of artistic techniques—experiments which eventually led Henson to the very latest visual media, television.
In 1954, while still in high school, Henson began his television career performing puppets on a local Washington, DC Saturday morning program on WTOP-TV. The following year, as a freshman at the University of Maryland, he was given his own twice-daily, five-minute show, Sam and Friends, on the local NBC affiliate, WRC-TV. Henson along with his assistant, fellow University of Maryland student and future wife, Jane Nebel, introduced many Muppet mainstays—music, humor and innovative technical tricks (such as eliminating the puppet stage and using the television itself as the proscenium). Perhaps most memorably, the show featured an early version of Kermit the Frog.
Jim and Jane Henson on the set during the filming of a Wilkins Coffee commercial in 1960. The 9-second commercials were so successful that more than 200 were eventually produced.

Dr. Cohen is a fantastic Doctor, with a great office/bedside manner. The inconvenience of having to wait a little longer for an appointment or in the waiting room is well worth it. He took over from another Dr., and all I can say is what a difference. I hope I never need to use him again, but if so, I absolutely will.
Jun 19th, 2012
Dr. Cohen did rotator cuff surgery on me in 2010. I have a bone disease which made the surgery more difficult & risky. He did a wonderful job. I have more use of that shoulder than I've had in years. Very pleased!

Dr. Cohen is a great orthopedic surgeon with top notch skills and a great bedside manner. He's very personable and listens to his patients.

FDA flags new concerns on Hospira's Rocky Mount plant
(Reuters) - Hospira Inc said U.S. health regulators raised fresh concerns about the injectable-drugs maker's troubled Rocky Mount, North Carolina manufacturing plant - one of its largest production facilities.
The much-awaited outcome of the FDA re-inspection of the plant did not provide significant additional clarity for the stock, Morgan Stanley analyst Marshall Urist wrote in a note.
"This outcome appears to fall somewhere in the middle between clearly positive and a material setback."
Hospira's Rocky Mount facility has been under the FDA scanner since April 2010, when the regulator issued a warning letter stating manufacturing practices at the plant violated its defined standard practices.
The company said on Tuesday that the FDA inspected the facility and issued a letter outlining 20 concerns, three of which the agency had expressed earlier.
RBC Capital Markets analyst Shibani Malhotra said the repeat observations were bad news as it meant Hospira was unable to address concerns initially raised by the FDA.
Hospira said in a regulatory filing that a number of these concerns were based on issues that are currently being resolved or have been identified by the company previously and would be addressed.
"Any actions by the FDA or the company in response to this inspection could impact the company's ability to increase supply of products to the market," the Illinois-based company said.
However, analyst Malhotra said the FDA would probably allow the company to continue manufacturing the drugs it supplies exclusively and those that are in short supply, unless there was a safety issue.
The FDA has expressed similar concerns about manufacturing practices at Hospira's other plants in Clayton, North Carolina and La Aurora de Heredia, Costa Rica, leading to maintenance shutdowns and drug shortages.
The company withdrew its 2013 profit and revenue forecast last month after quality issues at its plants prompted the FDA to impose an import ban on some of its products.
Hospira's shares were down marginally at $29.59 on Tuesday morning on the New York Stock Exchange. (Reporting By Pallavi Ail in Bangalore; Editing by Sriraj Kalluvila and Roshni Menon)

Any views expressed in this article are those of the author and not of Thomson Reuters Foundation.The footage was taken by an independent photojournalist, André Liohn, and produced by the ICRC as part of a worldwide campaign to end violence against health workers, facilities and patients. "Every year, countless people in armed conflicts and other emergencies fall victim to the phenomenon of violence against health care and the resulting inability to find or deliver proper treatment," said Jean Milligan, the head of the ICRC's production unit. "André's work shows this problem in stark detail... You see doctors in the midst of a firefight, dragging a patient into a warehouse and through a hole in the wall to get him to safety. It's the kind of scene you'd expect to find in an action film. Except that it's real, and what you're seeing is a matter of life and death." The Webby Awards have been described as the leading international prize honouring excellence on the Internet. "Of the over 8,000 entries submittedâ&${esc.hash}128;¦ fewer than 15% were distinguished as an Official Honoree," said the Awards' website. "This honor signifies an outstanding caliber of work." Mr Liohn said the "real recognition" belonged to the men and women in Libya, who put their own lives on the line to save others. "The courage I witnessed was phenomenal. War often presents people with just a split second to decide to do the right thingâ&${esc.hash}128;¦ for a soldier to let an ambulance carrying the wounded through a military checkpoint or for a group of rebels to allow doctors to treat injured, enemy fighters," said Mr Liohn. "In the midst of tragedy and great suffering in Libya, I saw the power of humanity and the importance of letting health workers do their jobs safely."
