Warning Letter
May 7, 2014
Mr. Subramanian Kalyanasundaram
Chief Executive Officer
Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Limited
Acme Plaza
Andheri - Kurla Rd
Andheri (E)
Mumbai - 400 059
During our November 13 through November 16, 2013, inspection of your pharmaceutical manufacturing facility, Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Limited - Karkhadi located at Plot No. 817/A, Village, Karkhadi, Taluka, Padra District, Vadodara, Gujarat, India, investigators from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) identified violations of current good manufacturing practice (CGMP) regulations for finished pharmaceuticals, Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations, Parts 210 and 211, and deviations from current good manufacturing practice (CGMP) for the manufacture of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). These violations and deviations cause your drug products and APIs to be adulterated within the meaning of Section 501(a)(2)(B) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act), 21 U.S.C. 351(a)(2)(B), in that the methods used in, or the facilities or controls used for, their manufacture, processing, packing, or holding do not conform to, or are not operated or administered in conformity with, CGMP.
We have conducted a detailed review of your firm's initial response and note that it lacks sufficient corrective actions. We also acknowledge receipt of your firm's additional correspondence dated January 28, 2014, and March 11, 2014.
Our investigators observed specific deviations during the inspection of the API manufacturing facility, including, but not limited to, the following:
1. Failure to ensure that laboratory records included complete data derived from all tests necessary to ensure compliance with established specifications and standards.
For example,
a. Your firm is missing the fundamental raw data and information necessary to document your analyses. For example, these analyses lack the following critical data:
- identification of the samples tested, including name and source, batch number or other distinctive code, and date of the sample
- the complete record of all raw data generated during each test, including graphs and electronic files from laboratory instrumentation
- test method used
- sample preparation as prescribed by the method, preparation and testing of standards, reagents and standard solutions
- records of all calculations performed in connection with the test
- test results
- the signature of the person who performed each test and the date(s) the tests were performed, and the date and signature of a second person showing that the original records have been reviewed for accuracy, completeness, and compliance with prescribed acceptance criteria
This basic analytical information allows for documentation, review, authentication, traceability, quality control and quality assurance at your pharmaceutical firm.
In addition, minimum laboratory control also includes documenting and retaining your system suitability data.
b. Your firm frequently performs "unofficial testing" of samples, disregards the results, and reports results from additional tests. For example, during stability testing, your firm tested a batch sample six times and subsequently deleted this data.
Our investigators found your practice of performing initial "trial" sample high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analyses prior to acquiring the "official" analyses. The "trial" sample results were subsequently discarded. "Trial" HPLC analyses for (b)(4) USP ((b)(4)) were apparently run as part of the 12-month long-term stability studies on batch #(b)(4) for related substances. The inspection revealed that on August 26, 2011, your employee ran an HPLC analysis sequence with the sample names (b)(4) and subsequently deleted the raw data files. It was noted that the assigned names for the sequence injections indicates that your quality control staff named the samples using the last three digits of the batch numbers to link the "trial" injections for the batches with the official assay analyses. Your Senior Quality Control (QC) Officer confirmed that these were analyses of batch samples. Furthermore, we found that on August 27, 2011, this batch was analyzed for unknown impurities and the results were reported to be within specifications. However, the chromatographic data showed that the "trial" injection data for this batch failed the unknown impurities specification of (b)(4)% in multiple cases.
Your Senior QC Officer confirmed that QC laboratory employees had frequently practiced the use of "trial" injections at your facility. Significantly, in addition to the example above, our inspection found 5,301 deleted chromatograms on a computer used to operate two HLPC instruments in your QC laboratory. Many of these files were "trial" injections of batches.
c. Similar unacceptable data handling practices were observed in your laboratory's conduct of gas chromatography (GC) analyses. The FDA investigators reviewed what appear to be data from "unofficial" injections for GC analyses for recovered (b)(4) raw material batch #(b)(4). On February 11, 2012, your analyst performed testing on recovered (b)(4) raw material batch #(b)(4) and the sample was within specifications. The following day, February 12, 2012, your analyst ran a GC analysis sequence with the sample names (b)(4) and subsequently deleted the raw data files. Your staff performed calculations during the inspection, at our request, that showed that these samples did not meet the (b)(4) impurity specification for this material. Therefore, it appears that out-of-specification data for batch #(b)(4) was considered to be "unofficial," while passing data were reported as the "official" results for the batch.
In addition, the inspection revealed numerous examples of deleted GC electronic raw data files on the computer controlling the GC instruments that were replaced with identical "official" chromatogram file names. The identically named GC data files that were deleted had been created at different times and contained disparate data. Also, it appeared that data was not consistently archived to the central server.
Your response is inadequate in that you did not conduct an adequate investigation into the pervasive practice of deleting files. In the reports provided in your response, you did not identify what criteria you used to designate each type of HPLC and GC data files (e.g. blanks, standards, samples, and system suitability runs). The response does not identify any impurity standards used in your procedures and does not provide the procedures that your firm was using to conduct the "trial" and "unofficial" runs. In addition, your investigation found 47 instances of apparent trial injections of samples for which the results were out-of–specification (OOS), and some of these batches were distributed to the U.S. market. The investigation failed to adequately examine why your analysts hid or deleted these runs. Your response only explains that your firm chose to retest samples from the implicated lots, but does not address the causes of the original OOS results, or justify the basis of your decision to invalidate the original failing result and accept the passing retest result. Such an investigation is necessary for any OOS event. Refer to the FDA's guidance on OOS investigations Guidance for Industry, Investigating Out-of-Specification (OOS), Test Results for Pharmaceutical Production.
The above examples suggest a general lack of reliability and accuracy of data generated by your firm's laboratory, which is a serious CGMP deficiency that raises concerns about the integrity of all data generated by your firm. We are concerned that your laboratory allowed the practice of "trial" injections and deletion of both GC and HPLC files to persist without implementation of controls to prevent data manipulation until at least September 2013. Your company's executive management is responsible for ensuring the quality, safety, and integrity of your products. Implementing adequate controls and systems to prevent manipulation of laboratory data is at the foundation of fulfilling this critical responsibility.
2. Failure to assign and identify raw materials with a distinctive code, batch, or receipt number, and to identify the disposition of materials.
For example,
a. The investigators observed three partially filled unidentified bags of (b)(4) in your firm's raw material warehouse. Your employees were unable to determine conclusively the identity or status of the material.
b. The investigators observed numerous unidentified partially filled bags containing what appeared to be (b)(4) in the (b)(4) Room. The disposition of this unlabeled material was not clear at the time of the inspection.
It is essential that employees adequately label materials as to their identity and status to prevent mix-ups and their unintentional or unauthorized use. In your response, you commit to amend your materials management system to ensure that your employees maintain accurate and adequate labeling of all materials. In response to this letter, provide evidence that you have implemented these corrective actions. Also, include your training activities for relevant personnel (e.g., staff, managers) to ensure adequate material handling.
Our investigators also observed significant violations regarding the finished drug product manufacturing operations at your facility, including, but not limited to, the following:
1. Your firm failed to exercise appropriate controls over computer or related systems to assure that only authorized personnel institute changes in master production and control records, or other records (21 CFR 211.68(b)).
The investigator identified numerous deleted raw data files on computers used for your GC instruments in your quality control laboratory. The software ("GC Solutions") on the computers used to control the GC instruments allowed your analysts to delete files from the computer's hard drive with no audit trail or other adequate form of traceability in the operating system to document the deletion activity. The software as configured assigned sequential, numerical names to raw data files within the same folder. When a raw data file was deleted or moved out of the designated folder, the next file recorded into the folder would be saved with an identical name as the deleted file. As a result, data can be manipulated so that saved files appear to be in sequence even if they were not generated sequentially. Due to the basic lack of audit trail and data security, an analyst could delete analytical files without traceability of this unacceptable practice.
The inspection revealed that you stored GC raw data files in multiple folders on the hard drives in the QC laboratory. Your Senior QC Officer stated you had no written procedure describing the management of GC raw data file storage. According to your firm's electronic data archival SOP IT-001, each QC analyst manually transferred individual raw data files to the central server at (b)(4). Your procedure did not address how this data transfer by QC analysts could be reliably verified, and whether proper computerized system controls will be implemented by your company.
We acknowledge your firm's commitment to amend the data handling system of your GC instruments to implement controls that ensure that analyses performed by employees are maintained as accurate, with data integrity and traceability. In your response to this letter, describe your detailed systemic improvements, training activities, and other actions implemented to provide evidence of the effectiveness and sustainability of these changes.
2. Your firm failed to maintain written production, control, or distribution records specifically associated with a batch of a drug product for at least one year after the expiration date of the batch (21 CFR 211.180(a)).
During the inspection, the investigators found approximately 10 waste bags containing torn or partially destroyed raw data CGMP records related to a variety of manufacturing activities. Some of the records found in these waste bags included the following:
a. A calibration check record for balance #FI-002 was torn and partially destroyed. Your associate stated that he used the wrong weights when conducting the calibration. He said that he recalibrated the balance and prepared new documentation, and subsequently discarded the original record. Furthermore, we learned that additional original calibration records of other balances had similarly been discarded.
b. Six corrective action and preventive action (CAPA) records (form F03-QA-076/01) were torn. Your Senior Quality Assurance (QA) Officer stated that this form is used for extending the due date of an ongoing CAPA. Our inspection team compared the discarded records to the official records and identified corresponding official copies of only three of the records. The three other discarded records did not have an official corresponding copy. During the inspection, your firm could not produce official records of the corrective actions described in these three partially destroyed documents.
c. Five completed preventive maintenance forms were torn. A staff member stated that he mistakenly tore and destroyed these original records.
The destruction of CGMP records produced by your firm's manufacturing facility is a serious deficiency that raises concerns about the integrity of all records generated by your firm. There was a lack of basic oversight by operations, quality unit, and site managers, as rewriting and destruction of original CGMP records was allowed to persist over a significant period without implementation of systems and controls to prevent data manipulation.
Your response is inadequate in that your investigation was primarily limited to the discarded CGMP records cited in the Form FDA-483. The investigation did not include a comprehensive review of all records in the waste area or a thorough review of your firm's practice of destroying CGMP records. In response to this letter, submit your third party auditor's report of the investigation of the data integrity practices associated with your CGMP records. This report should include a list of all records that your employees rewrote, destroyed, or altered in any way. In addition, address the root cause of your firm's failure to control and detect the manipulation, alteration, or premature destruction of CGMP records and describe systemic actions to prevent recurrence. Provide your procedures to manage and retain all CGMP records.
Also provide a list of all the batches of drug products shipped to the U.S. market and APIs intended for use in drugs to be distributed within the U.S. that relied upon missing, inaccurate, or unreliable records.
3. Your firm failed to ensure that each person engaged in the manufacture, processing, packing, or holding of a drug product has the education, training, and experience, or any combination thereof, to enable that person to perform his or her assigned functions (21 CFR 211.25(a)).
For example, you did not train your contract employees in CGMP or in job-specific procedures. In addition, CGMP documents, including procedures and batch records, apparently could not be fully comprehended by many of the contract employees. Your contract employees conducted critical CGMP operations for your finished drug products such as visual inspection of filled capsules, (b)(4) sealing, 100% verification of sealed bottles, final label quality inspection, outsert pasting on bottle caps, and the final packing in boxes. CGMP training is essential to ensure employees are qualified to perform all operations in compliance with good manufacturing practice.
We acknowledge your commitment to amend training procedures for your contract employees to ensure that you adequately train all of them. In response to this letter, provide an update on the implementation of these actions. Also, provide the final investigation report described in your initial response that assesses the deficiencies and their root causes in your training system. Note that only qualified individuals must conduct training. Such training must occur on a continuing basis and with sufficient frequency to ensure that employees remain familiar with CGMP requirements applicable to their assigned functions.
The items listed above, as well as other cited deficiencies, indicate that you have not implemented a robust quality system at your firm. Your corporate management should immediately undertake a comprehensive evaluation of global manufacturing operations to ensure compliance with CGMP regulations. We strongly recommend that you hire a qualified third party auditor with experience in detecting data integrity problems to assist you with this comprehensive evaluation.
You are responsible for the accuracy and integrity of the data generated by your firm. A firm must maintain all raw data generated during each testing and manufacturing operation, including graphs, charts, and spectra from laboratory instrumentation. You must properly identify these records to demonstrate that each released batch was manufactured in accordance with validated parameters, was tested appropriately, and met release specifications.
Appropriate record retention policies should also be in place. Our inspection revealed that your firm destroyed CGMP records directly related to the testing and manufacturing of your products. Your firm should reevaluate your record retention policy for all of your CGMP records. Should product quality or safety concerns arise over the lifecycle of an application, the original records pertaining to batches listed in an application may be integral in providing reasonable assurances to the Agency regarding a product and integrity of data submitted to support it. When destruction of documents is appropriate, you should follow a documented destruction procedure that ensures documents are destroyed in a controlled manner. This would include, at a minimum, identification of the appropriate documents and retention timelines, documentation of what was destroyed, and the names and signatures of those who witnessed the destruction.
Your data integrity consultant should:
1. Identify any historical period(s) during which inaccurate data reporting occurred at your facilities.
2. Identify and interview your current employees who were employed prior to, during, or immediately after the relevant period(s) to identify activities, systems, procedures, and management behaviors that may have resulted in or contributed to inaccurate data reporting.
3. Identify former employees who departed prior to, during, or after the relevant periods and make diligent efforts to interview them to determine whether they possess any relevant information regarding any inaccurate data reporting.
4. Determine whether other evidence supports the information gathered during the interviews, and determine whether additional facilities were involved in or affected by inaccurate data reporting.
5. Use organizational charts and SOPs to identify the specific managers in place when the inaccurate data reporting was occurring and determine the extent of top and middle management involvement in, or awareness of, data manipulation.
6. Determine whether any individual managers are still in a position to influence data integrity with respect to CGMP requirements or data submitted to the agency.
7. Expand your internal review to any other facilities determined to be involved in, or affected by, inaccurate data reporting.
8. Include a report that describes in detail the criteria used to determine the identity of the data files generated from the testing of batch, standard, or system suitability samples. The report should include examples of the use of these criteria, as well as identify which data files are standards and samples. In addition, include the procedures followed to prepare samples for system suitability runs (i.e., procedures followed to spike impurities into samples), and to handle product samples and the data files. This assessment should be conducted for both GC and HPLC data.
9. As part of this comprehensive data integrity audit of your laboratory, your audit report also should include any discrepancies between data or information identified in approved applications, and the actual results, methods, or testing conditions submitted to the Agency. Include an explanation of the impact of all discrepancies. Provide a corrective action plan describing the specific procedures, actions, and controls that your firm will implement to ensure integrity of the data in the future. This should cover method validation and any test data (e.g., stability tests, release tests) you have obtained.
The violations and deviations cited in this letter are not intended to be an all-inclusive list of violations and deviations that exist at your facility. You are responsible for investigating and determining the causes of the violations and deviations identified above and for preventing their recurrence and the occurrence of other violations and deviations.
If, as a result of receiving this warning letter or for other reasons, you are considering a decision that could reduce the number of finished drug products or active pharmaceutical ingredients produced by your manufacturing facility, FDA requests that you contact CDER's Drug Shortages Program immediately, as you begin your internal discussions, at firstname.lastname@example.com so that we can work with you on the most effective way to bring your operations into compliance with the law. Contacting the Drug Shortages Program also allows you to meet any obligations you may have to report discontinuances in the manufacture of your drug under 21 U.S.C. 356C(a)(1), and allows FDA to consider, as soon as possible, what actions, if any, may be needed to avoid shortages and protect the health of patients who depend on your products. In appropriate cases, you may be able to take corrective action without interrupting supply, or to shorten any interruption, thereby avoiding or limiting drug shortages.
Until all corrections have been completed and FDA has confirmed corrections of the violations and deviations and your firm's compliance with CGMP, FDA may withhold approval of any new applications or supplements listing your firm as a drug product or an API manufacturer. In addition, your failure to correct these violations and deviations may result in FDA continuing to refuse admission of articles manufactured at Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Limited - Karkhadi located at Plot No. 817/A, Village, Karkhadi, Taluka, Padra District, Vadodara, Gujarat, India into the United States under Section 801(a)(3) of the Act, 21 U.S.C. 381(a)(3). The articles may be subject to refusal of admission pursuant to Section 801(a)(3) of the Act, 21 U.S.C. 381(a)(3), in that the methods and controls used in their manufacture do not appear to conform to CGMP within the meaning of Section 501(a)(2)(B) of the Act, 21 U.S.C. 351(a)(2)(B).
Within fifteen working days of receipt of this letter, please notify this office in writing of the specific steps that you have taken to correct and prevent the recurrence of violations, and deviations, and provide copies of supporting documentation. If you cannot complete corrective actions within fifteen working days, state the reason for the delay and the date by which you will have completed the corrections. Additionally, if you no longer manufacture or distribute the drug products and the APIs at issue, provide the dates and reasons you ceased production. Please identify your response with FEI # 3005409363.

Flight twenty-three over the Bible from 30,000 Feet will take us over the entire book of Ezra. Our tour guide, Pastor Skip Heitzig, will point out two very important sections of this book; the restoration of the temple (chapters 1-6), and the reformation of the people (chapters 7-10). This book will continue the narrative of 2 Chronicles by showing God's faithfulness to keep His promises by returning His people to their homeland. The key chapters to review are Ezra 1-10.
DESTINATION: Ezra 1-10
Ezra continues the narrative of 2 Chronicles by showing God's faithfulness to keep His promises by returning His people to the land He had driven them from for 70 years as they were captive in the land of Babylon. Ezra relates the stories of two returns from Babylon for the children of Israel to rebuild Jerusalem. The first was led by Zerubbabel to rebuild the Temple of God, and the second by Ezra to bring reformation to the people.
Babylonians take Judah captive
King Cyrus conquers Babylon
Decree made by Cyrus allowing the Jews to return to Jerusalem
Construction on the Temple begins
Construction on the Temple is discontinued, restarted in 520 B.C. and
Darius 1 reigns in Persia
Ahasuerus (Xerxes 1) reigns in Persia
Artaxerxes Longimanus reigns in Persia
Ezra leads second return back from captivity
The book of Ezra picks up where 2 Chronicles left off with the decree
made by King Cyrus of Persia to rebuild the House of God. Ezra tells of the
two different returns from captivity, and can be divided into two sections.
The Restoration of the Temple – Chapters 1-6
The Reformation of the People – Chapters 7-10
Persia - Cyrus was the King of Persia. Persia is the area of present day Iran. A united kingdom that originated in the region was known as Pars (Persis) and was formed under Cyrus the Great. When you look at a map of the area, you can see the distance that the Israelites had to travel into the captivity. 70 years later, a new generation had to make the trip back.
Ecbatana - The capital of ancient Media, this city was one of four capitals of Babylon. Later it was the summer residence of kings, beautifully situatedat the foot of Mt. Elvend and NE of Behistun. In 549 B.C. it was captured by Cyrus the Great. It possessed a royal treasury and was later plundered in turn by Alexander, Seleucus, and Antiochus III. The site has never been thoroughly excavated, and today it is covered by the modern city of Hamadan, Iran. Interestingly this is where the traditional tomb of Esther (Book of Esther) is still honored by the Jewish community. Ecbatana was the Achmetha of Ezra 6.
Casiphia - A place on the way from Babylon to Jerusalem. It was the home or the headquarters of Iddo and residence of the Nethinim. Iddo was to send servants up to Jerusalem for the House of God.
Jerusalem - The central location of the book of Ezra and home of the Temple Mount bought by King David in 2 Samuel 24 from Araunah the Jebusite for 50 shekels of silver. Later the location of the first temple built by King Solomon which was destroyed in 586 B.C. by King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon. The book of Ezra chronicles the rebuilding of this Temple by the captives who returned with Zerrubabel and then later with Ezra.
Artaxerxes I - He was the son of Xerxes and he ruled the Persian Empire from 464– 424 B.C. He helped Ezra and Nehemiah with their return journeys to Jerusalem.
Cyrus, King of Persia - He began his reign over Babylon in 539 B.C. In his first year, he gave the Jews the valuables from the temple which Nebuchadnezzar had captured and brought to Babylon
in 586 B.C. He allowed the Jews to return to their home country.
Cyrus founded a dynasty that lasted until conquered by Alexander
the Great in 336 B.C.
Darius the Great - At the time that the work was stopped by Zerubbabel's enemies, it was Darius who searched in the archives to find the decree of his predecessor, King Cyrus. He found it at
Ezra - The scribe and priest who took the silver and gold valuables from Babylon and returned them to Jerusalem in 458 B.C. He had the blessing of Artaxerxes. The temple had been rebuilt, and it was
Ezra's job to teach the Law of God. This resulted in the end of pagan
marriages in which the people had been participating.
Jeshua the Priest - He was the son of Jehozadak and a priest. He along with others rebuilt and restored the altar. Later, he was the supervisor of some of the other workers on the temple.
Mithredath - Cyrus' treasurer who returned the temple
vessels (Ezra 1:8).
Rehum - A chancellor under Artaxerxes. He had a letter written to King Artaxerxes complaining about the Jews rebuilding the
temple and asking the King to have the work stopped.
Sheshbazzar - According to Ezra 1:8, Sheshbazzar was the prince (Hannasi) of Judah who Cyrus put in charge of the vessels of the
house of the Lord which Nebuchadnezzar had carried with him
out of Jerusalem and had placed in the house of his gods.
In Ezra 1:11, it is Sheshbazzar who brought these vessels with them
on their return from Babylon to Jerusalem. In Ezra 5:14, it is said
that these vessels had been delivered by Cyrus "to one named
Sheshbazzar, whom he had made governor," and that Sheshbazzar
further laid the foundations of the house of God which was
in Jerusalem.
Shethar-Bozenai - A provincial leader who joined with Tattenai to halt the rebuilding. However, when he heard back from Darius
that the decree had been given, he helped the Jews rebuild.
Shimshai - He was the scribe, or secretary, to Rehum who actually wrote the letter to King Artaxerxes to stop the work in Jerusalem.
Tattenai - The military governor of Judea who reported to the King of Persia. Zerubbabel reported to him. He also tried to stop the rebuilding of the temple.
Xerxes - Succeeded Darius the Great as King of Persia after his death. He is better known in the book of Esther as Ahasuerus, the husband of Queen Esther. He was a weak king who ruled from 485–465 B.C.
Zerubbabel - He was the heir to the throne of Judah, but when he finally returned to Jerusalem with his entourage of about 50,000 people in 539 B.C., he was only allowed to be the governor.
The treasures taken back to Israel - The exiles returning to Jerusalem were supported by their neighbors who provided valuables. It must have been an important event since each article was inventoried:
a. gold dishes – 30
b. silver dishes – 1,000
c. silver pans – 29
d. gold bowls – 30
e. matching bowls – 410
f. other articles – 1,000
Who returned - Ezra 2:64 begins a list totaling people and animals who returned; everything is important to God – important enough to be numbered.
a. Israelites - 42,360
b. servants - 7,337
c. singers - 200
d. horses - 736
e. mules - 245
f. camels - 435
g. donkeys - 6,720
Contemporaries of this time period - Other prominent people who lived during this time of return:
a. The Buddha – India (557-447 B.C.)
b. Confucius – China (551-478 B.C.)
c. Socrates – Greece (470-399 B.C.)
New Moons - The Jewish calendar is set by both the sun and moon. The feasts come around the different lunar cycles. They were great times. Each month of the year was consecrated to the Lord by
bringing special sacrifices and the blowing of trumpets. Most of
the observances included the cessation from normal working
Intermarriage - Being in captivity didn't mean that the Israelites were in jail. They were resettled in a foreign land. During this time, the Jews married spouses from the land in which they lived. This was against God's will for His people, as He wanted the line to stay pure and not be influenced by outside nations. In the end, Ezra had to break up these unions once the return to Jerusalem was complete.

The walls of Steve Hindi's home were once adorned with the trophies of dead animals, such as that of a shark he caught and a king salmon.
Today, Hindi said he seeks to attain different kinds of trophies — that of media exposure of animal abuse, such as through articles in the Chicago Tribune and the New York Times.
Hindi is the president of the Geneva-based nonprofit Showing Animals Respect and Kindness, or SHARK.
Hindi and other members of SHARK recently began testing a new version of their remote-controlled flying octocopter in a field in the Geneva area.
Looking like a mini-UFO, the octocopter shoots into the sky about 400 feet as Hindi and SHARK member Mike Kobliska monitor from the ground.
They attach a video camera to the octocopter, nicknamed "angel," and use it to spy on anyone suspected of abusing animals.
"We name it our angel because it's looking after the animals," said Janet Enoch, SHARK member and Hindi's girlfriend.
The newest version of angel can stay out longer and go farther than previous versions.
SHARK has several angels its members use. They certainly need the back-ups.
That's because people don't usually like being spied on.
And the people SHARK spies on usually have guns in rural areas and angels are sometimes shot at and brought down.
"They don't like animal cruelty exposed," Enoch said, speaking not of all hunters, but those possibly engaged in illegal activity.
SHARK's focus today is on an activity called pigeon shooting in Pennsylvania.
For sport, Hindi said violators trap pigeons and then release them for target practice.
So, what SHARK tries to do is capture these pigeon shootings on video as evidence of the activity to sway public opinion against the events.
Hindi claims the activity is illegal, but a spokeswoman for the Pennsylvannia State Police said pigeon shoots are not against the law in the commonwealth.
Pennsylvannia Game Commission spokesman Jerry Feaser said his office has no authority to stop pigeon shooting events.
"Pigeons are neither classified native or migratory birds, therefore, we have have no jurisdiction," Feaser said. "... If a pigeon shoot happens, we're not going to show up to stop it."
It was a pigeon shooting event that inspired Hindi to form SHARK.
As a hunter, he said he and his hunter friends lived by a code, such as not poaching.
Hindi said he used to joke with his friends about what they would do if they found a poacher.
But he later realized that a poacher is usually just trying to feed his family.
He saw what he thought was a contradiction in the code by attending a pigeon shooting event in Pennsylvania. Hindi said he witnessed the senseless slaughter of thousands of birds, some by children, and became horrified.
"All of our hunting code was garbage," Hindi said.
He had an epiphany and decided to devote his life exposing animal cruelty.
Hindi, who used to be a private investigator, said he is not a protester but would contribute to the cause by becoming a hunter of a different sort.
Rather than shoot animals with guns, he would shoot animal abusers with cameras.
"It is something I find infinitely more satisfying," Hindi said.
SHARK also targets more mainstream events that involve animals, such as circuses and rodeos.
"In large part, we forced the rodeo industry to stop shocking animals," Hindi said. "Rodeo horses are not really wild, but they were shocked to get them to buck."
SHARK also criticizes the High School Rodeo Association.
"They're teaching young kids that animal cruelty is acceptable," Enoch said.
However, the website for the Illinois High School Association contains a statement that the organization promotes the humane treatment of animals at all times while trying to keep western heritage alive in the state.
"As far as I'm concerned, the (animals) are all treated as humanely as possible," said Kenny Littrell, the national director for the HSRA.
He said the animal stock contractors aren't going to let their animals be mistreated because their livelihood depends on them.
"We definitely don't encourage kids to mistreat animals or allow them to," Littrell said. "... We don't think (Hindi) has enough to come after us for, but he seems to think it was."
Currently, SHARK is not conducting investigations in Illinois, but Kobliska said they will follow up on any tips about dog-fighting or cock-fighting operations that might be happening in the state.

A rabbi was arrested Thursday for the third time on a charge of impersonating a police officer during an angry confrontation on a suburban New York road.
State police say Rabbi Alfredo Borodowski is accused of angrily waving a badge at a driver who cut him off on Interstate 87 in Yonkers in April.
Thursday's arrest came just a few hours after the rabbi pleaded not guilty to a similar incident in Mamaroneck in June. And it came less than 24 hours after his arrest in White Plains for an alleged episode in May.
State police said that during the Yonkers incident, Borodowski was videotaped, flashing a badge, by a passenger in the other car. That footage has not been released.
The rabbi's lawyer says he suffers from bipolar disorder. After Borodowski pleaded not guilty in Mamaroneck on Thursday, the judge ordered a psychiatric evaluation.

BUENA VISTA, Va. -- The Southern Virginia University softball team dropped both games of its twinbill against Frostburg State University by respective scores of 8-0 and 24-9 Wednesday night at Harvey-Dryden Field in Buena Vista, Va.
In game one, the Bobcats (12-7, 4-2 CAC) got off to a quick start as the first batter of the game, catcher Caitlin Lovend, drove a homerun to deep center field to take a 1-0 lead. Frostburg State continued its offense in the third, fourth and fifth innings. Bobcat starting pitcher Hannah Tavik helped herself in those innings by hitting two homeruns of her own, one solo and one two-run shot, to drive in three runs.
Southern Virginia threatened in the bottom of the fourth when freshman McKenzie Packard singled up the middle. Reilly Anderson and Morgan Young both walked to load the bases before a Lainie Thompson strikeout would end the rally. The Knights had two hits in the game with Anderson picking up the other hit in the second inning.
Starting Knight pitcher Jamie Pinkston took the loss in the decision for Southern Virginia.
Game two featured an ignited Southern Virginia offense as the Knights scored four runs in the first two innings of play. In the bottom of the first, freshman Katie Evans and sophomore Cheyenne Hegsted crossed the plate to even the score at two apiece, after the Bobcats notched two runs in the top half. Frostburg went on to put up five more runs in the top of the second.
In the bottom of the second, Kelsey Bair reached base on a walk before Evans landed a homerun over the right centerfield wall, her first of the season, to cut the Knight deficit to 7-4.
Frostburg State, however, answered right back with six runs of its own in the top half of the third to extend its lead to 13-4. It would go on to tack on five more runs in the fourth before Southern Virginia cut into the lead with two runs in the bottom half of the fourth, making the lead 18-6. The fifth inning had both teams score runs with the Bobcats having six runners cross the plate and the Knights getting three before the game ended.
Softball gets only one night of rest as it will travel to Bridgewater College Thursday for a doubleheader makeup from March 25. The first game will start at 3:30 pm.

I love how it turned out. That doesn't go for all the members in our household. In fact, this quilt has been a huge topic of controversy around here for the past few days. [quote: "Don't you have any sports or surfing fabric?"]
Yeah, so I'm having a boy, and yet I still managed to use a plethora of polka dots and a few vintagey florals. There's no pink! There's no purple! I think a newborn blankie should be bright, cheery, and visually stimulating. I really like this combination!
So Cole will get a masculine quilt one day. But for now (while Kevin panics over the possibility of his baby quilt scarring him for life), how am I supposed to know whether he'll like dinosaurs or baseball or tractors or surfing?

Agram 2000 submachine gun
Agram 2000, field strip
Agram 2002 submachine gun, early version
Agram 2002, latest version
With the break-up of the former Yugoslavia in the 1990s, several states were left with significantly reduced arms-production capability. To be able to provide small arms to their police and military forces during the war, a number of weapons were designed to be produced in local machine shops. The Agram 2000 and 2002 machine pistols are such weapons and were produced locally in Croatia. They can be considered typical of a group of Croatian machine pistol/sub-machine guns produced on a limited scale during the early days of the Croatian conflict with Serbia.Numbers of these machine pistols have been found in illegal use throughout Europe.
The Agram 2000 and 2002 9 mm machine pistols are in essence variations on the same design, the primary difference being the sights and the lack of a fore-grip on the Agram 2002. The weapons are constructed of simple metal tubes, stampings and moulded plastic. Magazines are unique to this gun and have a plastic lower section. A wing-type safety on the left side of the weapon has three positions: S for safe, R for fully automatic and 1 for semi-automatic fire. The reciprocating cocking-handle is on the left, and the ejection port is on the right. Rearsights on the Agram 2000 are of a simple flip type, with settings for 50 and 150 m, while the foresight is adjustable for deflection. Rearsights on the Agram 2002 are a tangent leaf type, with settings for 50, 100 and 150 m.A threaded sleeve covers the barrel when the standard suppressor is not in use. The suppressor is a simple screw-on device which fits over the full length of the barrel and is secured by a screw-thread at the breech end. The barrel is 'ported' to optimise suppressor effectiveness by reducing the muzzle velocity of the bullet to below the speed of sound. There is no provision for a shoulder stock on either weapon, and both are classed as machine pistols.

Examinations: Overview
Examinations are fundamental to the supervision of national banks. Examiners evaluate bank activities and management processes to ensure that banks
What is a bank examination?
The OCC examines national banks pursuant to the authority conferred by 12 USC 481 and the requirements of 12 USC 1820(d). These requirements establish minimum frequencies and scopes for examinations, known as the "supervisory cycle."

One thought kept running through Darren Collison's head in the fourth quarter, driving him toward the unlikeliest of destinations.
His team trailed by 16 points Sunday at Staples Center. His first season as the Clippers' backup point guard looked like it might be over in a couple of days.
His mind wouldn't accept the possibility of being eliminated Tuesday in Oklahoma City.
"The whole time I'm thinking, we can't be down 3-1," Collison said. "We just can't be down 3-1 going to Oklahoma."
The Clippers won't face that predicament, because Collison became the catalyst of an epic comeback, leading his team to an improbable 101-99 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 4 of the Western Conference semifinals.
Collison's consecutive layups in the final minute touched off a wild celebration after Russell Westbrook missed a three-pointer, leaving the series tied at two games apiece.
Clippers forward Matt Barnes wrapped Collison in a bear hug from behind and lifted him off the court. Clippers Coach Doc Rivers placed an arm on Collison's shoulder and offered a few encouraging words. Teammate Ryan Hollins patted him on the head.
Collison deserved every possible accolade after scoring 12 of his 18 points in the fourth quarter as part of a small lineup that came up huge for the Clippers, who outscored the Thunder, 38-24, over the final 12 minutes.
"You just got to love a guy like that who plays with so much heart and never gives up," Clippers point guard Chris Paul said. "Game ball goes to Darren Collison."
Collison played the entire fourth quarter, teaming with guards Paul and Jamal Crawford as well as forwards Blake Griffin and Danny Granger over the final 8 minutes 44 seconds. Oklahoma City countered with a lineup that included only one big man, forward Serge Ibaka.
"I'm not sure we ever used that lineup," Rivers said. "But that group won the game for us tonight."
The small-ball approach allowed the Clippers to attack the basket on offense and double-team Kevin Durant on defense. With a little more than three minutes left and Paul guarding Durant near the three-point line, Collison came over to trap Durant and tipped his pass to Crawford, who found Collison in transition for a dunk that pulled the Clippers to 90-89.
Over the final few minutes, Collison smartly continued to drive for high-percentage shots on a day his team made only three of 21 three-pointers.
"A lot of times I could have shot the three," Collison said, "but I wanted to make sure we had good shot selection."
He pump-faked Durant into the air near the three-point line and drove past Ibaka for a layup that gave the Clippers a 99-97 lead with 59 seconds remaining.
After a Westbrook miss, Collison flipped in a breakaway layup high off the backboard to extend the Clippers' lead to four points with 32 seconds left. He yelled and pumped his arms as Oklahoma City called a 20-second timeout.
Predictably, Westbrook came right back at Collison, his onetime UCLA teammate who once nudged him into a reserve role during Westbrook's sophomore season. Westbrook drove past Collison for a layup that made it 101-99 with 27 seconds to go.
Westbrook had a chance to win the game after Griffin missed a layup, but his 25-footer — shot with Collison's hand in his face — bounced off the rim.
Game over. Series tied.
It was exactly the kind of moment that had prompted Collison to sign with the Clippers last summer instead of accepting a bigger contract to play elsewhere.
"I texted B.G.: 'I want to come here regardless of the financial reasons,'" Collison said. "I didn't care who was on the team. I thought this team had a good shot of competing for a championship."
Their title odds just improved considerably thanks to a gutty former Bruin whose team's season is no longer in ruins.

The young chef worked at Achatz-owned restaurant Alinea before heading up the cocktail program at the lounge, which opened in April 2011. Schoettler did not respond to requests seeking comment on his next move.
