Coming to Grips with CFR 21 Part 11
by Alex Woodie
Five years ago, the Food and Drug Administration enacted a rule governing how companies in the pharmaceutical industry should handle electronic records. This rule, known as CFR 21 Part 11--or simply Part 11--pales in comparison with other IT mandates, such as Y2K, HIPPA, or the Euro conversion. However, there is some evidence that the FDA is stepping up its enforcement of Part 11, which is helping to create a market for Part 11 compliance tools.
Although the FDA's Part 11 rule occupies only one written page, it has spawned thousands of pages of interpretation. The basic wording of Part 11 instructs companies to build the same level of accountability for electronic documents as the companies are required to have for their paper-based equivalents. In the end, Part 11 is designed to protect the public from bad batches of pharmaceuticals--or at least to ensure that a suitable audit trail exists, in order to aid investigation when things go wrong. For the pharmaceutical companies, Part 11 means, in addition to aiding in the efficiency of their new electronic processes, protection from potential consumer lawsuits and the ability of the FDA to shut them down and levy steep fines.
Industry experts say that compliance with Part 11 requires companies to alter the ERP systems they used to automate their manufacturing processes, so that every time an employee makes a change to certain electronic documents or to sensitive fields in an application (such as changes made to a batch of raw material used in the production of a drug), there is an electronic signature (or equivalent mark) that proves that the employee made the change to the system.
The problem is that most of the popular ERP and MRP systems on the market do not support the things that Part 11 requires. Many of these ERP vendors are working on delivering patches, or add-ons, that would allow drug makers to comply with the rule. However, these software makers seem to be taking the same "wait and see" approach that most pharmaceutical companies have taken toward the situation, which doesn't help the companies that prefer a more proactive approach in order to avoid a potential problem.
Boehringer Ingelheim, a privately held international pharmaceutical company headquartered in Germany, is one of the companies that could be grouped into the "proactive" category. A division of Boehringer Ingelheim in the United States that makes drugs for animals is currently evaluating its Part 11 options. This division runs a popular OS/400-based ERP system from a large and well-known ERP software vendor that is taking a wait-and-see approach toward Part 11.
Michael Cannon, Ph.D., is in charge of this division's quality assurance program. Dr. Cannon has contacted his ERP software vendor and approves of the direction that it's taking, but he doesn't want to wait for the vendor to decide what to do about his Part 11 problem. "We want to get Part 11 behind us, so we know we'll be compliant and be able to manufacture product," he said. "If the government decided that my company was not being compliant, they could come and shut us down. If the government thought we weren't being proactive, our customers would go elsewhere. . . . If the government wants us to be Part 11-compliant, that's ultimately" what matters.
Cannon is evaluating a third-party auditing tool that could solve his company's Part 11 dilemma. The tool, called DataThread, was introduced last year by Innovatum, a small, Sugar Hill, Georgia, software and services company. Innovatum has focused on serving the pharmaceutical and food industries during its 20-year history, particularly with clients who use the BPCS and PRISM ERP systems, although it has experience with others as well.
Innovatum's decision to develop a Part 11 solution came from that experience in the pharmaceutical industry, said Ardi Batmanghelidj, Innovatum's vice president of business development. "We're well aware of the vigorous requirements [of Part 11] and knew there would be a market for a solution for CFR 21 Part 11," he said. "It just made sense."
DataThread is built on and uses the database management functions of the OS/400 platform's native DB2/400 database. In a nutshell, DataThread detects any changes made to a database record, through triggers and journaling, and captures those changes for storage in a separate, secure repository. The utility satisfies the Part 11 requirement for electronic signatures by using OS/400 user IDs and passwords (an acceptable replacement for an actual signature). Alternatively, DataThread can be used with biometric devices, such as fingerprint or retinal scanners, to satisfy the signature requirement. Although Innovatum developed DataThread specifically for Part 11, its data auditing and workflow capabilities can be applied to just about any industry, the company said.
Dr. Cannon has researched DataThread and says it could provide a suitable patch to bring Part 11 compliance to his company's ERP system. As part of his research, Cannon recently conducted an audit of Innovatum and found the company to be satisfactory. "They do have a quality system," he said.
Innovatum is not the only OS/400 software vendor providing Part 11 solutions. Dynamic Systems Solutions, a Pompano Beach, Florida, vendor of database and security utilities for the OS/400 platform, provides Part 11 remediation capabilities in its Auditron400 utility. Although not designed specifically for Part 11, Auditron400's ability to detect field-level changes in data and provide audit trails is exactly what is called for in complying with Part 11. This summer, Dynamic Systems Solutions announced that a major pharmaceutical company had installed Auditron400 earlier this year to help comply with Part 11.
Other software vendors are starting to realize the potential market that Part 11 is creating in the IT industry. Earlier this month, PentaSafe Security Technologies announced the introduction of a joint product offering designed to help life sciences companies understand the ramifications of Part 11. PentaSafe, which is awaiting approval of a planned acquisition by NetIQ, partnered with an unrelated European firm named QinetiQ to offer a 21 CFR Part 11 content module for VigilEnt Policy Center, PentaSafe's application for managing security policies. This content module contains a best-practice policy library, documents, quizzes, and other supporting documentation that facilitates compliance with Part 11.
Pharmaceutical companies are just now beginning to recognize the potential disruption and million-dollar fines that Part 11 could bring. "In the same way that HIPPA is just starting to take up steam, a lot of these [pharmaceutical] companies are waiting to see how much enforcement takes place and how important it becomes," Innovatum's Batmanghelidj said. "More and more pharmaceutical companies are getting the concept: If they don't comply, there will be serious consequences."

The Bishop Museum in Honolulu on Oahu is one of Hawaii's most popular attractions. As Hawaii's largest museum, you'll find excellent exhibits covering Hawaiian royalty, natural history, and much more.
The Bishop Museum was founded in 1889 in the same location of the Kamehameha School for Boys (the school was relocated in 1940). Charles Reed Bishop envisioned the museum as a tribute to his late wife, Princess Bernice Pauahi Bishop. The Princess was the very last of the royal Kamehameha family. She owned many treasures from the royal family, as well as numerous artifacts and other heirlooms.
The museum has grown substantially since its inception. Today, it has the honor of being internationally recognized for its collections, research, and educational programs. Exhibits are constantly revolving, so there's always something new to experience.
When you go, be sure to check out the Hawaiian Hall, which has three floors of Hawaiian artifacts. Learn about Hawaiian gods and legends, Hawaiian royalty, and daily life for early Hawaiians.
Also stop by the Hawaii Sports Hall of Fame, which is housed in the Bishop Museum. Learn all about the awesome contributions Hawaii has made to the world of sports and check out some of the records that Hawaiians hold.
Another big attraction is the Richard T. Mamiya Science Adventure Center. Learn about Hawaii's oceans, volcanoes, seismic activity and more through a variety of interactive, immersive, hands-on displays. Don't miss the center's 26-foot-tall erupting volcano, the working tsunami simulator, the remote control-operated mini-submarines, or the lava-making demonstration (yup, it's HOT!).
This is one museum you don't want to miss, so when you're in Honolulu, make sure to add it to the itinerary!

In his column yesterday, Daniel Henninger–in writing about President Obama's summer trips and series of speeches on the economy–asks, "Is anyone listening to these speeches? Do they matter?"
The answer to both questions is, I think, no. And it raises a deeper issue: Has any previous president devalued his words quite so much, in quite so many ways? Perhaps, but I rather doubt it.
In order to support my claim, it's worth taking a stroll down memory lane, to compare what Mr. Obama has said with what he has done. The sheer bandwidth of his broken promises and empty claims is quite extraordinary.
For example, there was his promise not to allow lobbyists to work in his administration. (They have.) His commitment to slash earmarks. (He didn't.) To be the most transparent presidency in history. (It's not.) To put an end to "phony accounting." (It started almost on day one and continues.) And to restore trust in government. (Trust in government is at near-historic lows.) Think, too, about his pledge to seek public financing in the general election. (He didn't.) And to treat super-PACs as a "threat to democracy." (He embraced them.)
Then there was his administration's pledge to keep unemployment from rising above 8 percent. (It remained above 8 percent for the longest stretch since the Great Depression.) To create five million new energy jobs alone. (The total number of jobs created in Obama's first term was roughly one-tenth that figure.) To identify all those "shovel-ready" jobs. (Mr. Obama later chuckled that his much-hyped "shovel-ready projects" were "not as shovel-ready as we expected.") And to lift two million Americans from poverty. (A record 46 million Americans are living in poverty during the Obama era.)

PINELLAS PARK, Fla. Armed with a new law rushed through Congress over the weekend, the attorney for Terri Schiavo s parents pleaded with a judge today to order the brain-damaged woman s feeding tube reinserted. U.S. District Judge James Whittemore did not immediately make a ruling after the two-hour hearing, and he gave no indication on when he might act on the request.
The hearing came three days after the feeding tube was removed.
Doctors have said Schiavo could survive one to two weeks without the tube.
During the hearing, David Gibbs, an attorney for the parents, said that forcing Terri Schiavo to die by starvation and dehydration would be a mortal sin under her Roman Catholic beliefs.
It is a complete violation to her rights and to her religious liberty, to force her in a position of refusing nutrition, Gibbs told Whittemore.
But the judge told Gibbs that he still wasn t completely sold on the argument. I think you d be hard-pressed to convince me that you have a substantial likelihood of the parents lawsuit succeeding, the judge said.
George Felos, one of the attorneys for husband Michael Schiavo, told Whittemore that the case has been aired thoroughly in state courts and that forcing the 41-year-old severely brain damaged woman to endure another re-insertion of the tube would violate her civil rights.
Every possible issue has been raised and re-raised, litigated and re-litigated, Felos said. It s the elongation of these proceedings that have violated Mrs. Schiavo s due process rights.
Terri Schiavo s feeding tube was removed at 1:45 p.m. Friday, the third such time she had begun what Felos described as her dying process. On both previous occasions, the tube was re-inserted by court order.

Why Did UPS Miss Christmas Deliveries?by
In early December, United Parcel Service seemed pretty confident about its ability to handle the last-minute Christmas rush. It expected to deliver 132 million parcels in time for the holiday. After all, UPS has a team that spent the entire year coming up with a plan for most-urgent, peak-season deliveries.
UPS, however, was caught off guard. Reuters reports that the company's drivers will be delivering packages today and tomorrow that recipients had expected to arrive by Christmas Eve at the latest. Natalie Black, a UPS spokeswoman, told the New York Times, "It's unfortunate for this to happen at this time of year. We had our peak projections, and the volume has passed our projections." She said bad weather didn't help, either.
As I recently reported in a feature story, Scott Abell, UPS's peak planning manager, spends all year drafting a plan for the most-urgent deliveries of the holiday season. That's why he's known as Mr. Peak. This year, Mr. Peak was still revising his blueprint in November to accommodate big last-minute orders from Amazon users. Even so, UPS was overwhelmed. "We apologize to those customers whose packages were delayed," a UPS spokeswoman said in an email. "Our focus today is on completing the deliveries."
Typically, UPS starts its peak planning process in January, after Abell and his team members take some time off to recover. Mr. Peak likes to disappear to Florida to play some golf. This year, he might have to stick around to mollify unhappy customers. Amazon is promising gift cards to people with late arrivals. Abell may need to have some long conversations with these retailers about why they shouldn't use FedEx next year.

Dr. Bill's
Marine Weather is a service of the Coastal
Weather Research Center at the University of South
Alabama. The purpose of this website is to provide useful
information for the everyday needs of the amateur or
professional angler. To do this, Dr. Bill's Marine Weather
has combined exclusive products of the Coastal Weather
Research Center with public products of several government
agencies such as the National Weather Service, the National
Ocean Service and the U.S. Naval Observatory. In addition
to selected government products, such as marine forecasts,
tides, solar and lunar tables and radar, an exclusive
marine discussion is prepared daily by the staff of
the Coastal Weather Research Center. This informative
product consists of an in depth analysis of the expected
weather and sea conditions along the central Gulf Coast
including projections for several days in advance. In
addition, Dr. Bill's Marine Weather, in cooperation
with Exxon-Mobil, will provide early morning sea conditions
from Exxon
Mobil platform 112B located some 3 miles south-southwest
of Fort Gaines, Alabama. This is the only offshore non-buoy
information available to local anglers.
The products
utilized in Dr. Bill's Marine Weather come from the
resources of the Coastal Weather Research Center, a
fully operational forecast service located on the main
campus of USA. Since it's opening on January 1, 1988,
the Weather Center has been providing accurate and timely
information to businesses and industries across southeast
Mississippi, southwest Alabama and northwest Florida.
Now, with the support of our sponsors, the staff of
Coastal Weather is able to direct important information
to those involved in Gulf Coast fishing.
The Weather
Center is directed by Dr. Bill Williams, meteorologist
and associate professor at the University of South Alabama.
Dr. Williams has been teaching meteorology and geography
at USA since 1967 and during that period has authored
numerous publications including the annual Mobile Weather
and Marine Almanac. In addition, he developed both the
Coastal Weather Research Center and USA's undergraduate
meteorology program, the first and only undergraduate
meteorology program in Alabama. Dr. Williams has also
served as chief meteorologist for Mobile radio stations
WKSJ and WNTM and served as severe storm analyst for
WKRG-TV in Mobile.
Dr. Keith
Blackwell assists in the forecasting operations
at Coastal Weather and also serves as the Center's hurricane
specialist. Dr. Blackwell has a wealth of meteorological
experience, especially along the Gulf Coast. A native
of Mobile, he served as a forecast meteorologist with
the U.S. Air Force for 13 years during which he helped
develop the meteorology program at the Air Force Academy
in Colorado Springs. Dr. Blackwell is an associate professor
of meteorology at the University of South Alabama, the
author of numerous publications and the creator of a
highly successful hurricane forecast model that is now
used at the Coastal Weather Research Center. Dr. Blackwell
is currently involved in research on landfalling hurricanes
and continues his association with the military serving
as a Lt. Colonel in the U.S. Air Force Reserves.
The daily operations
of the Weather Center are the concern of Pete McCarty.
Pete has served as manager of the Weather Center since
its opening day and has developed a keen insight into
the informational needs of Alabama fishermen. In addition,
Pete McCarty formulated many of the forecast and communication
procedures currently used at the Center. In addition
to his forecasting and managerial duties, Pete maintains
the Center's weather archive and assists in the preparation
of the Mobile Weather and Marine Almanac.

Bankers at Canary Wharf may get new neighbours: Students
In an interview with Financial News, Sir George Iacobescu, chief executive of Canary Wharf Group, has outlined a "softer" vision for the former dock area that includes homes, tech firms and possibly even higher education.
The group is planning the development of the Wood Wharf area.
"There are plenty of universities and there is plenty of room to create a centre of excellence in Canary Wharf," Iacobescu said.
A spokesman for Canary Wharf Group said an educational establishment was "not a definite plan we are looking to do", but a feature that would benefit the area.
It is now a decade since the bitter takeover battle that saw Canary Wharf fall into the hands of a Morgan Stanley-led consortium.

What was meant to be a short weekend trip to a music festival turned into more of a culinary expedition and our first stop was The Boathouse at Palm Beach. We had all heard much about it but never been – so anticipation was high! It is beautifully located on the water, inside Governor Phillip Park, about an hour drive north of Sydney. As expected, there was a bit of a queue to order, but then it took even longer to get a nice table outside and for our food to actually arrive. There was a bit of h-anger happening by the end of it, so I do recommend going during the week if you can! (We went on a Friday).
- What we ate:
The seafood is really the main attraction here – both Britton sisters made the excellent choice of having the Local beer battered flathead with house made tartare and fresh lemon ($28). Funnily enough it arrived in a dim sum basket! The portion was generous, and the fish and tartare impeccably fresh. G decided on the Steak sandwich with grilled haloumi, fresh tomato, mixed leaves and chips ($24) – give the guy some food! – which, I hear, was deeply satisfying. I had my heart set on the Salt & Pepper Squid but alas, they had run out by the time we ordered. Sad face, but definitely trying it next time. I had the kingfish, interestingly paired with dried chickpeas and watermelon, as well as some mint. Fresh, refreshing and enjoyable.
I really recommend the Boathouse as a day-trip from Sydney or the Central Coast. It's so beautiful, especially on a perfect blue sky day like the one we had. We could have sat there the entire afternoon, lapping up the view and listening to the gentle waves!
[Oh and don't forget to pick up some yummy ice blocks on your way out!]

Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt might be the most hated couple in the history of the British reality show Celebrity Big Brother, but RadarOnline.com has learned that the two plan to stick around in England to star on their own show.
"Speidi have been TV gold on Celebrity Big Brother and are clearly no fans of the British," a source told the Daily Star newspaper. "It makes perfect sense for them to bag their own explosive series here."
The concept: Heidi and Spencer will travel throughout jolly old England, poking fun at British culture and traditions. Virtually unknown to British viewers before stepping into the Celebrity Big Brother house, the couple have helped the show draw a huge viewership with their wild and inappropriate behavior. Apparently, they are so rude and mean to the other contestants that they have received death threats.
"The American couple have become the most reviled contestants in the history of the show, and Big Brother chiefs will ensure they get close protection from minders when they eventually exit the house," the Daily Star noted.

I recently found out that I was pregnant, but just as quickly lost the pregnancy. My doctor has told me that I need to have a procedure done to completly end the pregnancy, I hate to think of this, it scares me so much.
I know that there is a medication that can be taken to do this, but I am still breastfeeding my 2 year old a couple times a day. My doctor says he does not know if the medication would effect my nursing 2 year old, he says thats a long time to be nursing, most of his patients never go that long.
I don't know what to do, I have until Friday to make my decision. Does anyone know anything about either procedure. Thanks in advance.

Technology update
Sep 27, 2013
Roll-to-roll production could ramp up market opportunities for graphene
Graphene Frontiers, a spinout from the University of Pennsylvania, US, has been awarded $745k from the National Science Foundation (NSF) to demonstrate and develop roll-to-roll production of continuous graphene film.
The company, founded in 2011, is using atmospheric-pressure chemical vapour deposition to produce graphene on continuous tapes of copper foil passed through a growth region. This eliminates the need for an expensive vacuum furnace and enables fabrication of graphene films larger than the furnace size.
The funding will allow the firm to show that these sheets can be transferred from the metal catalyst to nearly any smooth surface without any high-temperature steps and without the use of harsh chemicals. It's also worth noting that the transfer process preserves the original metal substrate for reuse, which both lowers production costs and reduces waste.
Attracting investment
The award is part of the NSF's Small Business Innovation Research programme, which recognizes "transformational technology with significant societal or commercial impact" – a phrase that could almost be a tagline for graphene, or at least that's the hope.
Governments, especially in Europe and the US, are looking expectantly at graphene to drive economic growth and create new jobs, but some analysts are calling for a more cautious outlook when assessing the potential market.
Paige Boehmcke, senior product manager at Graphene Frontiers, acknowledges both perspectives and adds that what the market is waiting for is applications.
"The market for material alone, for example for research and development, is definitely overstated," she told nanotechweb.org's sister site, TMR+. "We will not see a dramatic increase in graphene demand until applications such as flexible electronics come to market."
The thinking is that as graphene quality and affordability increase following improvements in production, companies will invest in bringing these applications to market. Other uses highlighted by Boehmcke as a particularly good match for roll-to-roll graphene include desalination membranes, and high-sensitivity chemical and biosensors.

Where there are people, there have always been stories. These stories are told by word of mouth, the written word, or through images.
An image can convey emotion or mood. It can have a narrative, or represent ideas. These are the same elements that we would expect of a written novel and are important aspects of storytelling. With photography we have the ability to tell stories, be they our own personal stories or something more broad about the world we live in.
Storytelling with Photography
The story that you tell with your images can be documentary style, photos of your every day life or the life of someone else. With documentary photographs your aim is to capture a real life story as it unfolds, to share it with others. It can also be a concept, made up by the photographer, but still tells a story of real issues and ideas.
The story you tell can also be entirely fiction, a fairytale. It could be a mixture of all of these, a fairytale that has elements of reality. As with the written word, the possibilities for storytelling through photography are almost endless. Next time you take a photograph, try asking yourself: "What story am I telling?"
Storytelling with a Series of Images
When telling a story through images, try not to include too many elements in one photograph. If you need to include multiple storytelling elements to be able to convey your meaning, try using a series of photos. The series can contain two photos, or it can be made up of hundreds. The images can be directly related and a part of the same shoot, or they can be separate images taken over time that build a broader story.
We do this more often than we think, we take multiple photos on vacation for example. Those vacation photos will tell the story of that little part of our life, documenting the places we visited, the food that we ate and the things that we did.
Before you begin shooting, you might want to consider the kind of shots that you would need to tell the story effectively. Wedding photographers often have a list of shots that they need to get during the day, these will include shots that the family have requested but will also include elements that bring together the story of the wedding day.
Think about the visual themes that you need to include in your images to tell the story. These can be things such as props, locations, style. When taking a series of photos to tell a story, often there will be one or two things that are consistent throughout. This can be a prop, or it can be a location or a concept… something that ties each image together.
Storytelling with a Single Image
Stories exist in different sizes, there are long novels and short ones. These short stories can be told with a single image, one that conveys the intended meaning in a smaller area. This doesn't mean that a single image is any less powerful than a series, the story told may be a shorter one but that doesn't make it any less important than a longer story.
You can include props to tell your story, often portrait painters would ask their subject to hold a personal item and include it in the painting so as to tell the viewer a little more about the subject. Think about context, what is happening around your subject that could further the story you are trying to tell?
You can convey meaning with a closer shot, a facial expression in a close up portrait for example. You might also need to take a wider shot to tell the story effectively, perhaps the surroundings play an important role. Remember, sometimes the story can be told just as effectively by what you have chosen to leave out of the frame. Unseen elements, or elements merely hinted at can add a lot to your story.
Next time you are out shooting, or planning a shoot, think about what story you would like to tell with your images and how you can best convey that story to the viewer.

My sweet MaddieLynn has tagged me to list seven songs that are shaping my summer.
Here are the rules:
List seven songs that you are into right now. No matter what the genre, whether they have words, or even if they're not any good, but they must be songs you're really enjoying now, shaping your Summer of 2008. Post these instructions in your blog, along with your 7 songs. Then tag 7 other people to see what their favorites are this year!
Hmmmmm… this is a tough one for me. I generally don't have music playing because it bugs me to try to listen to two things at once, and there is usually plenty to listen to around here. I guess if I had to make a soundtrack of the Summer of '08 it would include these songs:
Somewhere Over the Rainbow Oh! Susannah You're a Grand Old Flag I Walk in Beauty We'll Work 'Til Jesus Comes Make Me New Ode to Joy
I am tagging
Pat Liz Shari Amy
And it hurts my brain to try to think of anyone else right now who won't roll their eyes, or say, "Ew gross! A tag!", or "Smockity? Who's that?", or "This blog is much too sophisticated to participate in such base things as tagging, now let me get back to translating Shakespeare's works into Latin."
So, if you would like to participate, please do, and let me know so I can link to you!

World Park North Stormwater Master Plan and Detention Basin Design - This project involved preparing a stormwater master plan for a 120 Ac. commercial/industrial site for Duke Real Investments, Inc. in Butler County.
Springfield Township Storm Sewer Rehabilitation Project - Hamilton Co. Department of Public Works.
Eastgate Pavilion - 25 Ac. Retail Site in Clermont County - Prepared detention design for stormwater runoff from 225,000 S.F. building & 13 Ac. parking lot.
City of Cincinnati California Storm Drainage Improvements - Prepare plans & specifications for storm pipes, catch basins, and open channel work to relieve street and yard flooding in California neighborhood.
East End Flood Protection Study and Master Plan - This study and master plan was performed for the Economic Development Department of the City of Cincinnati, under the direction of the Stormwater Management Utility Division. This project is located within the boundaries of the City of Cincinnati in the southeastern portion of the City between the Little Miami River and the Ohio River. It consisted of studying a drainage basin consisting of 2,665 acres. The purpose of the study was to address and analyze the problems and potentials of flood protecting areas along the Ohio and Little Miami Rivers and to determine the feasibility and cost associated with site preparation necessary to attract commercial and industrial development.
This project was unique in that most of the study area adjacent to the Ohio and Little Miami Rivers fell within the floodway or floodway fringe as defined by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Because of this, special hydraulic restrictions had to be contended within developing appropriate hydrological and hydraulic models. Being within the FEMA defined floodway areas, all work had to be accomplished by utilizing the HEC-1 hydrological analysis and the HEC-2 hydraulic analysis for the development of the river hydraulics. As an end result the Master Plan provided for flood protecting an area from Delta Avenue to the confluents of the Little Miami River and along the Little Miami River north of Lunken Airport. This was accomplished through the use of earthen dikes for the flood protection from the river, and systems consisting of gravity flow, pump stations, stormwater detention basins, and a combination of pumping and storage within the flood protected areas.
In addition to the hydraulic and hydrology analysis, we had to deal extensively with the environment, historical and aesthetical concerns. In addition, the Master Plan provided a cost benefit analysis, relating the end acre cost to provide flood protection to the benefits derived in creating the commercial and industrial sites. The recommended improvements needed to provide the flood protection and development of the commercial/industrial property resulted in a cost estimate of $35 million dollars.
Congress Run/Cilley Creek Stormwater Master Plan - This project was a joint effort between the Hamilton County Sanitary Engineers office and the City of Cincinnati Stormwater Management Utility Division. The study was initiated as a result of damages that occurred, over a number of years, with significant rainfall events. The latest one was a severe rainfall that measured in excess of 5 inches in a time period of one hour and forty-five minutes. The drainage basin consisted of 2,675 acres and entailed studying the Millcreek, Congress Run Creek, and Cilley Creek streams.
Because the Millcreek and a portion of Congress Run Creek had been studied by the Corps of Engineers utilizing the hydrological method of HEC-1 and the hydraulics analysis method - HEC-2, we were required to utilize those methods in this master plan. In addition, we utilized the SCS TR55 method in the drainage basin tributary to Cilley Creek.
Our solution to the problem resulted in recommendation of improving existing channels, providing additional stormwater conduits, and enlarging area of considerable restriction on Congress Run Creek. Because of the extensive cost involved in making the improvements, we provided the City and Hamilton County with a prioritization of improvements, based upon engineering considerations and cost. In addition, we developed a plan for phased construction of the projects. The cost estimate of the recommended improvements for this project was $3,400,000.
Valleydale/Cilley Creek Drainage Basin Master Plan -This project involved the HEC-2 channel analysis and SCS method for determination of runoff for approximately 2675 acres culminating in a master plan for controlling storm drainage. This project overlapped through areas under the jurisdiction of the Hamilton County Sanitary Engineer's Office and the City of Cincinnati Stormwater Management Utility Division. FEMA regulated streams were involved within both jurisdiction; utilizing HEC-2 analysis for methodology. The total project based on current dollars is estimated at $3.4 million.
Cincinnati East End Flood Protection Study - This project evaluated the potential industrial property adjacent to Kellogg and Lunken Airport as well as property upstream on the Little Miami River. The proposed construction cost for the total development is some $15 million. Our involvement in the project included the preliminary design and cost estimates with considerable emphasis on the development of the hydrology and hydraulics. The HEC-2 program was utilized to determine the flood water effect due to changes in the overland flow of the secondary riverbank as well as some minor main channel modifications.
Cincinnati California Storm Water Management Study and Report - This report involved the field and office analysis to determine the requirements for an adequate drainage system in the area. The total estimated project cost is approximately $1 million dollars. Not constructed.
Neighborhood Housing Conservancy - Kipling Detention Basin - City of Cincinnati - Prepared the preliminary engineering report with related information and submitted to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources for the proposed dam classification. Hydraulic analysis of the 56 acre watershed involved the SCS TR-55 methodology.
After approval of the preliminary engineering report, final construction drawings were prepared. Design was based on limiting post developed flow for the 2, 5, 10, 25, 50, and 100 year rainfall frequencies to pre-developed conditions.
Evendale Regional Detention Basin - This project involves the development of hydrology and hydraulics for retention basins to accommodate the differential between a design frequency of 25 years for undeveloped vs. a 50-year frequency for a completely developed urban area. The magnitude of the project involved approximately 1/3 of Evendale and resulted in 3 retention basins with a total construction cost estimated at $200,000.
Carpenter's Creek (plus) Drainage Area - This project involved the hydrological analysis and hydraulic design for the flood routing through 2 reservoirs utilizing the SCS method. This was the review of an existing facility to determine its adequacy.
Evendale Industrial Park Study - This study involved approximately 100 acres of property located in the flood fringe area adjacent to the Mill Creek in Evendale. The study resulted in proposed levies and detention basins plus pumping stations to protect the proposed industrial area against a 100-year frequency design as determined by FEMA. The price for the proposed improvement is $5 million.
Village of Evendale - Turgot Creek Hydraulic Analysis- Study to analyze effects of development from six (6) subdivisions, including existing detention/retention basins for a 300+ acre watershed. Study involves utilization of SCS TR-55 methodology. Study will recommend proposed improvements to minimize erosion through the Turgot Creek.

At the annual Fall Meetings in Pensacola, Fla., earlier this week, the Board of Directors was advised of Mincher's wish to retire at this time due to ongoing health issues, and they reluctantly accepted his decision.
"I will forever be grateful for the opportunity to serve as president of what I feel is the best league in baseball," Mincher said.
Because the members of the Southern League would greatly miss Mincher's leadership, and as an expression of their appreciation for his years of service, they unanimously appointed him President Emeritus.
The Southern League will look to him for continued advice and counsel in the future. Mincher assumed the interim president title in February 2000 when the league's former president resigned, and was subsequently elected president later that year.
Before becoming Southern League president, Mincher was general manager of the Southern League's Huntsville Stars from 1984 until he assembled a group of local owners who purchased the team in 1994. He sold his interest in the club when he was elected president of the League in 2000.
Mincher brought a wealth of baseball knowledge to the Stars and the league as a former Major Leaguer, having played 13 seasons with different teams, capped off by a World Series win in 1972 as a member of the Oakland Athletics. A success on and off the field, Mincher was enshrined in the Alabama Sports Hall of Fame in 2008 as well as being presented with the Warren Giles Award for Minor League Baseball's most outstanding service as a league president that same year.
In 2010, Mincher was named "King of Baseball," the highest honor bestowed by Minor League Baseball.
The League will immediately begin the process of identifying and electing a successor to Mincher. No specific time frame has been established for the completion of this process.
Steve DeSalvo, general manager of the Mississippi Braves and vice president of the Southern League, will assume the role of interim president until a new president is elected.

From there, the 20 hours of classroom instruction are also targeted to studying and practicing the areas most students need to work on. The course also builds in assignments and activities for students to do outside of class to support and maximize the work being done in class. Finally, a post-assessment Official LSAT® PrepTest at the end of the course provides each student a snapshot of how far they have progressed, and helps them plan the rest of their preparation. The end of the course is timed to give the student plenty of time to take additional practice tests, at a reasonable and productive pace, before the next administration of the actual LSAT®.

Perhaps no other move by a league was more widely ridiculed (with perhaps the exception of the NHL's Guardian Project, whatever that turned into) than when the Big Ten rolled out its new logo and division names:
Legends and Leaders.
It's bad enough the new logo looks like something designed by The Gap, but Legends and Leaders? Really? Were Division A and B not available?
Then there are the actual divisions themselves, which while they were interesting, left a lot to be desired. It was pretty obvious the league sold out in a chance to get a Michigan-Ohio State championship game and all the benefits that would come with it. I can somewhat understand the move, the league didn't want one division overpowering the other like the old Big 12. But it was still interesting
So with that in mind, here's how I would realign the Big Ten.
