Basic law is the Federal Law On Advertising (No. 38-FZ dated March 13, 2006) ("Law on advertising"). There are also official clarifications of competent authorities that clarify law provisions but do not alter them. Moreover, the AIPM Code of Conduct ("AIPM Code"), adopted by the Association of International Pharmaceutical Association, provides additional rules for member companies.
Advertising is defined by the Law on advertising as: "information spread by any means, in any form and by any media, which is addressed to an indefinite circle of persons and aimed at drawing attention to advertised object, at creating or maintaining interest in it and at promoting it in the market".
All items must be authorised prior to advertising them in Russia. Companies must also have all data mentioned in advertising confirmed documentarily, including respective researches and testing results. All advertising materials and any related documents must be stored within one year after the last distribution of the advertisement.
There are no statutory requirements for companies, except for those regarding storing advertising materials.
There is no preliminary approval procedure provided under the Russian law.
Competent authorities are entitled to demand ceasing violations of law and distribution of illegal materials under an official decision, which may be further appealed to the court. The authorities are not entitled to insist on the issuance of a corrective statement.
Breaching law requirements in part of pharmaceutical advertising shall cause administrative liability in the form of a fine in the amount of up to RUR 2,500 (approx. EUR 40) for individuals, in the amount up to RUR 20,000 (approx. EUR 270) on officials, and in the amount of up to RUR 500,000 (approx. EUR 6,620) on legal entities. The fine can be calculated per breach so the total amount can be above the higher level. Another risk can be blocking an information resource in Russia.
Competent authority is the Federal Antimonopoly Service of the Russian Federation ("FAS"). Within the scope of its powers the FAS initiates and holds administrative proceedings on violations of advertising requirements. According to recent practice, the authority initiated several cases against major pharmaceutical companies, including Sanofi. The total fine under five cases initiated against Sanofi composed RUR 1,000,000 (approx. EUR 13,200).
There are expert committees established by the FAS in its regional departments. These are not self-regulation institutions per se, although they do have some influence on decisions made by the FAS and the FAS tends to rely on an opinion of the committee when assessing advertising materials in question.
A competitor affected by the advertisement may file a claim to the FAS on unfair advertising, as well as initiate legal proceedings on the protection of business reputation, if applicable.
Discussing medicines at scientific events and meetings for healthcare professionals is not prohibited under Russian law and can be initiated before the required authorisation is obtained. However, such discussion should not pursue the aim of promotion. Sponsorship of the meetings will be in question since advertising laws will apply. Should such sponsor support the event only with the purpose to conduct discussion of its product before authorisation, such sponsorship might be considered a veiled advertisement of an unauthorised product that is prohibited under Russian law. The position will be the same for off-label information.
Publishing information about medicines with a neutral nature of content (e.g. with no aim to promote the item) is permitted, and in particular, this can be analytical and scientific materials on recent developments in a disease treatment method.
Creating publications with respect to unauthorised products is prohibited, unless such publications have no aim to promote the respective item but only to keep the public informed of scientific or medical progress. As regards press releases, they are designed primarily for promoting the subject-matter focusing on a particular item, which is similar to the advertisement concept. Therefore, there will be a high risk of recognising such press releases as unlawful advertising.
Non-promotional materials are free to circulate between healthcare professionals and companies may distribute them. It should also be also noted that healthcare professionals have a right to request such information, in which case a personalised reply to such request will not reflect advertising criteria. This will not apply to press releases due to their promotional nature, and distribution thereof is prohibited until authorisation is obtained.
The case did not have any direct influence either on legislation or on practice. However, it is likely that the same position, as provided by the ECJ, may be reflected in Russian disputes.
In general, all prices are set when all formalities are completed and therefore any distribution of medicines or indications before obtaining authorisation will not work for procurement justification for Russian institutions. Therefore, providing such medicines or indications will hardly be treated as an attempt at planning the budgets, and will more likely be regarded as advertising.
According to the Law on drug circulation (Federal law No. 61-FZ dated April 12, 2010) ("Law on drug circulation"), pharmaceutical companies may engage healthcare professionals in scientific and educational works. Thus, it is possible to pay healthcare professionals for marketing research if their participation implies material contribution to studies. Such marketing studies cannot be used for the promotion or selling of any pharmaceutical products, managing the opinions of the participants of the study or pre-registration promotion for any pharmaceutical product in any instance.
There are no special requirements for this group. However, companies usually use a legal line in the marketing materials stating that the information is intended for healthcare professionals only.
contain the assertion that the safety and/or effectiveness of the product are guaranteed by its natural origin.
Describing properties and characteristics, including methods of application and use of medicines and medical articles, is permitted in advertisement only to the extent of indications contained in instructions ("SmPC") for application and use of such objects of advertising that are approved in the established procedure.
Using endorsements by healthcare professionals is a limited tool for promoting medicines, which is acceptable only for advertisement disseminated during pharmaceutical events or in printed materials for healthcare professionals.
There are no requirements to a particular number of "head to head" trials. The only requirement for comparison is that it shall be based on objective criteria.
Comparisons between different brands are not prohibited for advertising provided that all data is correct and proved documentarily, as well as not violating intellectual property rights of the brand holder. However, referrals to non-authorised products should be avoided due to the general prohibition of their advertising.
The Law on drug circulation mandates that participation of pharmaceutical companies, other than the organiser of the event, shall not be restricted or be of discriminatory nature. No participation fees shall be established in a manner leading to an unreasonable restriction on participation either. Information about the date, time and place of such event shall be published on the official website of the organiser no earlier than two months prior to its beginning. In addition, information on such event shall be submitted to an authorised governmental body for further official publication on its website.
"Teaser" advertisements shall fall under general regulations prescribed for advertising in Russia as set out herein.
The Law on drug circulation prohibits the provision of samples of medicinal products to healthcare professionals in case the samples are provided for a subsequent transfer to patients, with the exception of the provision of samples for the conduction of clinical trials. Additionally, AIPM members are not allowed to provide healthcare professionals with any samples of pharmaceutical products for personal use.
All gifts and donations are prohibited for pharmaceutical companies both by the Law on drug circulation and the AIPM Code. In practice, the provision of stationery of insignificant value free of charge during educational and scientific events is allowed.
If a healthcare organisation and a pharmaceutical company are registered as commercial companies in Russia, such gifts or donations of any kind are prohibited. If a healthcare organisation is a non-commercial company, the Law on advertising prohibits the donation of samples containing narcotic substances. Thus, all other gifts and donations are allowed (a) in the absence of direct prohibition, and (b) for publicly beneficial purposes subject to the absence of conflict of interests.
Subject to compliance with the restrictions indicated above, the provision of medical or educational goods and services to healthcare professionals which could lead to changes in prescribing patterns is allowed.
In general, Russian legislation does not prohibit the provision of a volume-related discount for the purchase of medicinal products by healthcare institutions. However, a respective discount should be commercially reasonable, otherwise it may trigger tax or anti-monopoly/anti-bribery restrictions.
It depends on whether such offer is reflected in agreement between the pharmaceutical company and medical institution or respective services are provided unofficially to the executive officer of a medical institution in exchange for the purchase of a medicinal product. While Russian legislation does not prohibit the former, the latter is likely to be regarded as a bribe. Thus, in order to comply with Russian laws, the respective offer should be included in the agreement between a pharmaceutical company and medical institution for the purchase of medicinal products.
References to refunding can be regarded as unlawful assurance of the effectiveness and safety of a product that is prohibited from the advertising law perspective, and this will be equally relevant to any types of medicines.
Pharmaceutical companies are allowed to sponsor the scientific activities of healthcare professionals, which may include medical education.
actual transfer of money, securities, other property or property rights, as well as the provision of services in the situations described above at the order of the person providing items listed above, or any other assistance to these persons.
According to practice, Russian authorities can exchange information transferring matters to the relevant state body for its consideration. However, due to the limited scope of anti-bribery legislation, a situation where a pharmaceutical company may breach both advertising and anti-bribery laws simultaneously is unlikely.
According to Russian legislation, it is prohibited for pharmaceutical companies to pay healthcare professionals for entertainment, leisure and travel costs, as well as engage them in entertainment events conducted at the expense of such pharmaceutical companies with the exception of scientific meetings.
Respective prohibition applies regardless of the place where such events take place and the cost of them. However, the AIPM Code states that pharmaceutical companies should not organise events for healthcare professionals outside their country of residence, unless it is justified in terms of logistics or security. The use of facilities associated with entertainment or luxury is prohibited.
Though the Russian legislation does not directly restrict the pharmaceutical company from paying healthcare professionals attending the scientific meeting, respective expenses are hard to justify in the absence of any benefit (such as internal education courses or follow-up lectures for the employees) for the company from their participation. Therefore, this option is not advisable.
The pharmaceutical company may be held liable for the breach of advertising legislation at these meetings in case it either organised such meeting or sponsored it in such a way that allowed such pharmaceutical company to include the breach of advertising in the context of a meeting. There is no direct liability prescribed for hospitality arrangements, although this might trigger associated liability (tax, anti-bribery, antitrust etc.). The compliance of Russian pharmaceutical companies with these requirements is mostly dependent on them acting in good faith.
Pharmaceutical companies may pay healthcare professionals (except for pharmaceutical professionals and heads of pharmacy organisations) serving as experts for their work on the expert council, provided that the experts' work on the expert council is scientific in nature. However, the requirements stated in question 5.2 should be observed.
The participation of healthcare professionals in clinical studies is allowed. Respective clinical studies should be done according to applicable legislation.
Please note that the participation of a healthcare professional should be structured in such a way that it does not lead to a conflict of interest.
According to the Law on drug circulation, a pharmaceutical company can pay a healthcare professional in connection with scientific and educational work. Thus, we believe it is possible to pay healthcare professionals for marketing research in case their participation implies material scientific work done by such healthcare professionals.
Non-prescription medicines are permitted to be advertised to the general public. The basic requirement is that the advertisements should be fair and true.
contain statements that the safety and/or effectiveness of the advertised item are guaranteed by its natural origin.
Very important to note, is that the advertising of medicines, medical services and equipment must be accompanied by a warning regarding contraindications against their use and application, and the necessity to read the instructions on their use or the necessity to consult a specialist.
All information placed in advertising materials must correspond to SmPC.
Medicines containing permitted narcotic or psychotropic substances are prohibited for advertising to the general public.
Russia has also set forth a specific regulation for biologically active additives.
Advertising prescription-only medicines, treatment methods, medical products and equipment requiring special training for their use is prohibited to the general public.
If conducted campaigns do not include any product names, they will not draw attention to any items and thus advertising regulations will not apply. However, according to advertising laws, specific restrictions set for promoting certain products will apply to the promotion of any names, brands and other means of individualisation associated with such products. Therefore, running any campaigns by manufacturers or sellers specialised on prescription-only medicines can be recognised as veiled advertising of prescription-only medicines even in silence of particular product. If so, restrictions prescribed for prescription-only medicines will apply.
Referring to prescription-only medicines is prohibited in publications made in printed materials if they are available to the general public, unless they are of a purely informative nature and only have the aim to keep the public informed about scientific or medical progress. Information and analytical materials (scientific research and testing results) are excluded explicitly from advertising regulation. However, press releases are closer to advertisement concept, since they are focused on a particular item. Therefore, general and specific requirements provided for prescription-only medicines might apply. Similarly to the aforementioned, unauthorised medicines or indications is only permitted for informative purposes.
It is a general requirement that information must be true and accurate. According to Russian law, information about prescription-only medicines is allowed for distribution only through sources intended for healthcare professionals; only information about non-prescription medicines is permitted for dissemination to the general public. Therefore, providing a description of prescription-only medicines exceeding the name of the product might be an issue.
There is no official regulation in Russia and therefore general advertising rules will apply to this group, if their communication is related to promoting medicines. Any meetings with, and the funding of such organisations are allowed, provided that they comply with the law. In case funding is part of the sponsorship campaign it will be recognised as advertising, and thus only permitted with respect to non-prescription medicines.
Russian law provides for a specific prohibition in distributing samples of medicines containing narcotic or psychotropic substances. Providing samples of prescription-only medicines is also restricted since it may be deemed advertising.
The Rules of Good Clinical Practice approved by the Ministry of Health provide detailed instruction regarding the exchange of information between the participants of clinical trials such as medical organisation, patients, state bodies, etc. However, it is not necessary for information on clinical trials to be disclosed to the public.
The Russian legislation does not provide for such requirement.
Respective requirements are reflected in the AIPM Code. It is applicable to all companies, which voluntarily endeavour to comply with the AIPM Code.
fees for service and consultancy.
Without limitation, transfers of value that: (i) are solely related to over-the-counter pharmaceutical products; (ii) are not listed above and are not restricted by applicable legislation and the AIPM Code; or (iii) are part of ordinary course purchases and sales of pharmaceutical products do not fall within the scope of the disclosure obligation.
Disclosures shall be made on an annual basis and each reporting period shall cover a full calendar year. Disclosures shall be made by each pharmaceutical company within six months after the end of the relevant reporting period and the information disclosed shall be required to remain in the public domain for a minimum of three years after the time such information is first disclosed, with some exceptions.
Disclosures are made on the relevant pharmaceutical company's website, provided that it is publicly available.
The AIPM Code does not directly regulate such situation. Since the respective transfers of value can be disclosed in a summarised and depersonalised way, we believe that the transfers of value to such individual healthcare professional may be disclosed by the company in a depersonalised way.
Russian law does not provide for specific regulation of digital pharmaceutical advertising. Therefore, the same requirements will apply to such information source as if respective materials were distributed in other forms.
It is allowed to have information resources for the purposes of providing information about a company or/and its products, etc. Consequently, it is allowed, inter alia, to display the name of the product, although this should not imply promoting purposes. Should this criteria be met, the information resource will not be subject to advertising regulation. Otherwise, all promoting materials placed on the Internet must comply with the general requirements set by advertising laws.
Russian laws are in the process of elaborating their approach to determining the jurisdiction of information sources. Currently, Russian authorities that are entitled to monitor websites have their own ways to determine jurisdiction. In terms of advertising regulations, the official regulator monitors websites hosted on national domains (e.g., .ru, .рф, .su, etc.) as well as foreign websites with webpages in the Russian language.
Pursuant to Russian law, restricting access is required with respect to information related to prescription-only medicines. The law does not clarify the rules on adequate and sufficient measures to be undertaken in order to restrict access to sites for healthcare professionals. In practice, pharmaceutical companies disseminate information on prescription-only medicines via specialised social media, where a user must pass a verification procedure to have access. However, the law and current regulation are silent on legitimacy in this way.
Russian rules do not address weblinks per se. Authorities consider this issue on a case-by-case basis. The current approach is that companies are not restricted in using weblinks to or from independent websites. References to websites for healthcare professionals would not generally be acceptable on websites designed for the public, since such healthcare professionals sites might contain restricted advertising. The law is also unclear on how to allocate liability when a weblink leads to an independent website with unlawful content. According to current practice, a company will likely be held liable if it has any relationship with both the linked-from and linked-to websites. Otherwise, it shall only be responsible for the content on its own website. Nevertheless, the safe option is to monitor independent websites for compliance with the applicable law.
General corporate websites are acceptable in Russia so long as they do not promote prescription-only medicines or unauthorised products to the public. General information about medicinal products (e.g. names) on websites falls outside the scope of advertising rules unless it is arranged in a manner to make any one stand out from others.
It is permitted to distribute advertising of non-prescription medicines through the website subject to compliance with applicable requirements as provided herein.
Russian laws do not provide for specific regulation with respect to social media. Therefore, the same requirements will apply to a page on a social network.
No significant changes in pharmaceutical advertising regulation have been made over the last year.
Currently, one of the most debated topics is using the words "fast", "effective" in advertising of medicines. There are numerous cases when the authorities deemed advertisement containing such words as guaranteeing a positive effect, which is prohibited under the laws. It is expected that during 2018 there will be a guideline adopted on the acceptability of using such words in advertising.
It has also been proposed to restrict TV advertising of medicines, and the respective bill is under consideration currently.
According to recent cases, authorities tend to focus on the description of the effect of a particular medicine provided by an advertiser. It appears from the practice that any statements promising an immediate or quick recovery are not acceptable.

I have no trouble with makeup for office or a night on the town, but what about casual days? When running errands, going to brunch, or having a glass of wine at sunset, it's nice to look pulled together and pretty, but not too done up. For those times, here is a makeup look that is the makeup equivalent of a ponytail and takes less than five minutes.
For a natural, lit-from-within glow, use In Touch Cream Blush. The Foundation Brush is ideal to apply and blend it. Swipe the brush across the end of the blush, and then smile to find the apples of your cheeks. Start applying the blush a tiny bit under the roundest part and blend up and out a bit. Fingers are fine too, but I find that I end up wiping off as much I put on.
Next apply a bit of concealer. I love Active Light Under-eye Concealer for this because it is subtle and brightens the whole eye area. Apply a bit in the dark circles (if you have them) and then in the inner and outer corners of the eye.
Step three is foundation. Use your favorite, or if you haven't tried it, you might like Dream Tint Tinted Moisturizer. It is sheer and easy to apply, either with your fingers or the Blending Brush.
To bring out your eyes without looking made up, choose an Eye Gloss in a shade that compliments your features – or your mood. Try Champagne Silk or Lilac Silk; or for darker skin tones, Brown Silk. Apply to the lid, lashes to crease, using the little doe-foot applicator. Dot it on and blend gently with the applicator. Then use your ring finger to blend around the edges and up into the crease. It's OK (even good!) if a little bit creeps over into the corner of the eye; this will illuminate the area even more. Just remember a little goes a long way with this powerhouse product!
Apply PureLash Lash Extender & Conditioner and a coat or two of Longest Lash Thickening and Lengthening Mascara. There is no need to go all out, it should look soft.
Step back several feet from the mirror. If your eyes need a bit more definition (or you still look sleepy), apply a bit of neutral colored Eye Pencil, like Black/Grey or Black/Brown, into your lash line. No wings or cat's eyes here! Just stick to defining the lash line. I like to swipe the Angle Definer Brush across the tip of the pencil and then wiggle it right along the roots of the lashes.
If you'll be outdoors, be sure to apply LipDrink Lip Balm first for your SPF, then swipe on some PureGloss Lip Gloss. Tourmaline and Just are your most natural options, or for a bit more pop, use your favorite shade. Put your gloss in your purse or pocket and you're on your way.
That's it! Bare-faced to fresh-faced in five minutes. Now you have plenty of time to get out and enjoy your weekend.
Halloween makeup that is spooky good for you!

Q: Android Studio Themes Don't Work in App I'm just getting started with Android development and have literally only been doing it for a few hours.
Using the new Android Studio I've created a basic one-button app which creates a Toast text when I press it.  Whoopee.
Problem is - when I select a "Theme" for my app layout page from the GUI, and select for example Halo (or any of them), it only changes my PREVIEW in the Android Studio. When I press "Run" (or export it to an apk), everything goes back to basic white style.
It's as if it doesn't include the style/theme when building my app

A: You may look at this link:
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/themes.html
and add something like this
<application android:theme="@android:style/NameOftheTheme">

or this
<application android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Holo">

with the theme name you'd like in your AndroidManifest.xml

A: Thank you! I changed the style.xml file to be this and it changed instantly...

City animals 4
On 11th January 2018
In Animals, Architecture, City Symbols
I have found that there is something about City animals – after you first start looking for them you see them everywhere and they become a bit of an obsession (or they have for me!). So here is this week's collection – I hope you like them and find them interesting. First up are two dolphins in very contrasting environments.
More than 50,700 Commonwealth merchant seamen lost their lives in the two World Wars and the Mercantile Marine Memorial (on Tower Green, alongside Tower Hill Underground station) commemorates the almost 36,000 of them who have no known grave. The boy riding the dolphin, accompanied by fishes and seahorses, is one of seven sculptures representing the seven seas by Sir Charles Wheeler. The sculpture is surrounded by plaques showing the names of the dead arranged alphabetically under their ship's name and the name of the Master or Skipper.
The Mercantile Marine Memorial – boy riding a dolphin
I will be writing a special blog on the subject of memorials later this year, and will include some more detailed photographs and commentary on the Mercantile Marine Memorial then.
This dolphin looks decidedly uncomfortable balanced on the facade of The Ship pub in Hart Street (built 1887) …
He needn't look so worried – both he and the pub are Grade II listed
What about this splendid animal standing outside Spitalfields Market with Hawksmoor's 1714 masterpiece, Christ Church, Spitalfields, in the background …
This goat would have got my vote
Wonderfully entitled I Goat, it was hand sculpted by Kenny Hunter and won the Spitalfields Sculpture Prize in 2010.
The artist commented …
Goats are associated with non-conformity and being independently-minded. That is also true of London, its people and never more so than in Spitalfields
Is it possible to look up and see these floppy-eared dogs and smiling boar's heads without smiling yourself?
Corner of Eastcheap and Philpot Lane
The boars' heads reference the Boar's Head Inn, Eastcheap, which Shakespeare has Sir John Falstaff visit in Henry IV. Presumably the dogs were used for boar hunting, but they are obviously pals here.
I have always been curious about these ram's heads on the corner of St Swithen's Lane and Cannon Street …
I consulted a great source of City knowledge, The City's Lanes and Alleys by Desmond Fitzpatrick. He writes that …
For well into the second half of the last century, the building was a branch of a bank dealing with services to the wool trade, a business connection pleasantly expressed … by the rams' heads crowned with green-painted leaves, as if Bacchus and Pan had met!
Copies of this excellent book are available by sending a cheque to the author at Holly Tree Cottage, Angel Street, Petworth, West Sussex GU28 OBG. It costs £15 plus £2 postage. Great value – 350 pages packed with knowledge.
This honey bee is, appropriately, a keystone over the entrance to Honey Lane which connects Cheapside with Trump Street.
107 Cheapside – a busy bee buzzes up to some fruit and flowers
It is part of the old headquarters of The Sun Life Assurance Society whose Zodiac covered entrance I wrote about in my earlier blog Looking at the Stars. Although the connection to Honey Lane is obvious, it's possible the insurance company also liked the reputation bees have for industriousness and providing for the future.
The name of the lane comes from the bee-keepers who used to live there and it also once led to All Hallows Honey Lane, a medieval church destroyed in the Great Fire. The area then became a small meat market which was itself replaced by City of London School in 1835. The area was significantly damaged by Second World War bombing and nothing now remains of the original buildings after post-war redevelopment. In fact, the lane itself has moved about 140 feet to the east.
The Black Eagle sign in Brick Lane reminds passers by of the Black Eagle Brewery. Founded in 1666, under the 18th century management of Sir Benjamin Truman it started its expansion to eventually become, as Truman, Hanbury and Buxton, one of the biggest brewers in the world. The brewery itself closed in 1989 and the site is now a small business hub and entertainment area.
And finally, as most City folk know, the old Whitbread Brewery on Chiswell Street is now a hotel and conference centre.
However, not many know that the old horse stables still exist in Garrett Street EC1, just off Golden Lane. The mighty shire horses could still be seen delivering ale throughout London well into the 1970s until Whitbread moved out of brewing and into budget hotels and coffee shops.
The Garrett Street Stables
It's sad in a way to note that in 1699 there were almost 200 substantial brewers in London, and in 1952 there were still 25 operating in the capital. Now only Fuller's of Chiswick are left as the capital's last remaining major brewer.

Since I've read The Raven King, the sequel to The Foxhole Court, I've definitely been in a Foxes sort of mood. Thus, this post was born!
Thank you for reading! I've never done this type of post before, so I'd really appreciate feedback. What other books or characters would you like to see me do this with? (I'm already planning on doing something with The Raven Cycle.) Comment below, and remember that you are all very beautiful pickles.
HONESTLY WHENEVER SOMEONE LIKES A BOOK I REC'D I END UP GRINNING LIKE AN IDIOT TOO, SO YOU'RE GOOD.
Thank you! It's barely been a week since I finished it (if that?) and I already want to reread The Raven King and The King's Men.
RUELLE! X AMBASSADORS! Gosh, I kind of want to read The Foxhole Court now? Everybody keeps telling me too and as usual I forget...until I see a post like this and want to jump in my TARDIS and steal it from my nearest library.
DOOOO IT. Sadly, I highly doubt it's popular enough to be at a library - but you CAN purchase it on an iPad/laptop/etc. for only 99 cents.
I think you might like it! Do you have any recs for other similar X Ambassadors songs?


Volkswagen looks to China for a massive boost in annual production of motors for electric vehicles.
This likely cements VW's electric car ambitions in place.
Volkswagen has long promised commitment to electric cars, but little has come from the automaker's various EV-related promises.
However, we're now starting to see the money being spent, which is the point of no return in our eyes.
These actions have been confirmed by the administrative office of Tianjin, so apparently it's a done deal.
The investment will make way for the annual production of up to 120,000 electric motors, not nearly enough to satisfy expected global demand in late 2018 and on, but it's a setp in the right direction.
13 Comments on "Volkswagen Turns To Chinese Factory For Production Of Up To 120,000 EV Motors Annually"
A Chinese built VW… Wow.
The JD Power rankings for build quality/reliability of Chinese built cars have been ahead of German cars for most of this decade. That has been especially true of VW which has been making cars there for a really long time.
That's good to know but it is hardly exciting from a general image perspective. My German wife would not want one that much I know.
That's probably a good thing. There are actually very few people on this earth who have German wives who has ethnic hangups and will only buy German made goods. The VW cars sold in the US are made in Mexico. We Americans are quite comfortable buying a high quality product, even if it is made by a Chinese owned company called Tesla based in California and run by a South African born lunatic.
China-based Tenecent only owns 5% of TSLA. Biggest investor in TSLA appears to be Fidelity.
The fact is that whether they own 0, or 100 is rather immaterial to most people in the US.
That creepy combination of self-absorbed hyper-nationalism that exists in Germany is not something anybody else cares about.
These are for the Chinese market. VW and Audi were the first western car companies to enter the Chinese market back in the 1980s.
VW needs 8% of its Chinese production to be electrified in 2018. That are 240,000 electrified vehicles, and another 50,000 for Audi.
This is just starting for their local production.
The real message here is the the VW Group is building its own motors, unlike any other car company the buys "off the shelf" including Tesla. The VW "flat" motor produces more torque (per watt) and weighs less. Key attributes in extending the driving range.
BMW and Nissan also prduce their own electric motors!

Jamil Fakhri
Pakistani Film, TV and Stage Artist
Jamil Fakhri was born in Lahore on December 16, 1944. After graduation, he joined the National Bank of Pakistan and started doing theatre in Lahore, becoming friends with talented actors such as Kamal Ahmed Rizvi, Athar Shah Khan, Ali Ejaz and Rafi Khawar aka Nannah. His ever-popular stage plays to date include Andar Aana Mana Hai, Zuban Daraz, Ulti Seedhi, High Jump and Lahore Bypass.
Renowned TV producer Yawar Hyatt introduced him on television in the late '60s, and throughout the '70s and '80s he worked relentlessly in TV plays such as Aik Mohabbat Sau Afsanay, Tanay Banay, Daldal, Waaris, Teesra Kinara, Bandhan, Aik Haqiqat Aik Fasana, Alif Noon, Zakhira Andozi, Pyaas, Alif Laila, Aaj Ka Khel and Jheel. And then, there was Andhera Ujala.
His role of Inspector Jaffer Hussain in Andhera Ujala became his identity and made him a household name. In fact, whenever the history of television is written in Pakistan, Jaffer Hussain would rank among the top three roles played to perfection by an actor. The burly and oft conflict-riddled policeman was the protagonist of the play along with Irfan Khoosat who played Havaldar Karamdad. Together, they nabbed bad guys and managed to do so while overcoming personal and professional challenges.
In one thought-provoking and immensely touching episode of Andhera Ujala, Jaffer Hussain shoots his son in the leg to stop him from defecting to a life of crime. In another, he loses his father to criminals who shoot him dead while offering prayers. In both episodes, Jamil Fakhri was seen at the pinnacle of his acting talent — delivering dialogues and effectively emoting the pain of losing a loved one through his eyes, a trait that made him a far superior actor from others of his clan.
Every episode of Andhera Ujala threw a new challenge in Jaffer Hussain's way and whenever he felt tempted to veer off the way of the law, there was a severe reprimand in store for him from his superior officer played by Mohammed Qavi Khan: "Jaffer Hussain, yeh sab kya ho raha hai?"
"For me, Jamil Fakhri was more than just a co-star," remembers Qavi. "We had been friends for a long time and always remained in touch. Like most actors, Jamil Fakhri was a sensitive person. He conquered both the mediums of theatre and television but was deeply affected by the recent death of his son. We used to talk about it and he was unable to cope up with the tragedy. It was ironic since he was famous among his friends for his lively jokes and hearty lifestyle."
Jamil Fakhri's Inspector Jaffer was notorious for making bad guys tremble in their shoes when reminded of drawing room (torture chamber) and pulling up his trousers whenever he was about to take a big step like reprimanding a subordinate or leaving the thana to make an arrest. The mannerism became his trademark and when Jamil Fakhri was called to collect his medal for outstanding achievements as an actor in 1989, he repeated it — only to be vastly applauded by the audience at Liaquat Gymnasium in Islamabad.
Qavi Khan recalls the time he spent on the sets of Andhera Ujala with the late actor, "The policemen still respect us for effectively depicting them in the series, and that is the biggest reward for us as actors. Fakhri Saheb's character was so popular that he is still widely known as Jaffer Hussain, which is the ultimate reward for an actor."
Jamil Fakhri was awarded Pride of Performance for his acting in all four mediums — TV, theatre, film and radio. Firdous Jamal adds, "We both worked in all mediums, but his roles were of archival nature. His characters were super-strong and with substance, and I am sure that in the near future they will be presented as examples for budding artistes. He was one of the few actors whose stare is worth a million words. With his death, we have not only lost an actor but also a star who had mastered the performing arts."
For an actor who effectively solved crimes in Andhera Ujala, it is ironic that the murderers of his son have not been brought to justice so far. The death of his young son, Ali Ayaz Fakhri, who died under mysterious circumstances in the US, affected his physical health terribly and after the tragedy he was a changed man.
"He was a sensitive man and I think he died the day he heard about his son's death," says Firdous Jamal. "He was one of those people who used to laugh heartily, but when his son disappeared, and was later found dead, he lost the will to live on. He felt the pain of his fellow actors when they were in trouble, and he used to cry alongside them. He was also very religious. It was his extreme love for his late son that he died soon after."
Renowned theatre, TV and film actor Jamil Fakhri was one such actor who was revered by the masses as long as the spotlight was on him. On June 9, 2011, after being on a ventilator after a paralysis attack, he left for the hereafter.
Jamil Fakhri's final play, Dil Day Boohay, ended last month on PTV whereas his final bow was in Sehra Teri Pyas that was aired from a private channel the day he suffered a brain hemorrhage. With these plays, he bade farewell to his four-decade long association with the performing arts during which he made us laugh and cry with incredible histrionics.
Finally, Qavi Khan recalls, "Jamil Fakhri knew the art of making people laugh, be it on screen or off it. It seems people of our generation are all passing away — Moin Akhtar, Khayyam Sarhadi, Babbu Baral, Mastana and now Fakhri Saheb. All we can do now is pray for them and remember their good work."
Jamil Fakhri and Films
Renowned directors Pervez Malik, Shabab Kiranvi, Nazrul Islam and Javed Fazil also cast him in films and he enjoyed moderate success on the big screen. He was always cast in character roles and managed to make the most of them: Pakeeza, Dehleez, Meherban, Lajawab, Aahat, Deewanay Do, Bhabi Diyan Chooriyan and Direct Havaldaar are his more successful films in which he had the chance to share the screen with actors such as Nadeem, Waheed Murad, Mohammad Ali, Rahat Kazmi and Javed Sheikh. In fact, Direct Havaldar was the film version of Andhera Ujala where the whole cast including Irfan Khoosat (playing the title role), Mohammad Qavi Khan, Abid Butt and Jamil Fakhri reprised their roles brilliantly.
Veteran actor Firdous Jamal was part of Direct Havaldar as Jaffer Hussain's son who turns rogue during the film. He recalls Jamil Fakhri as an excellent co-star with whom he shared a working relationship as well as a friendship that lasted for a long time. "Jamil Fakhri was one of my teachers because when I came over to Lahore from Peshawar, he made me feel as part of his family. I had spent more time with Jamil Fakhri than I had spent with my own brother, and I was shocked to hear about his death. Aam Aadmi to roz paida hota hai, Jamil Fakhri jaisa insaan kabhi kabhi paida hota hai (people are born every day, but a person like Jamil Fakhri is born once in a blue moon).

Sometimes, you find best practices in action that give you hope for the future in the midst of the negative economic and political realities we face daily in the mainstream media. One such best practice comes to us from MITRE Corporation. It's news that ought to make us all optimistic about the future.
MITRE's student program is a unique, nationally renowned summer educational experience for outstanding high school students and college undergraduates. It offers students technical positions working on problems involving the application of advanced science and engineering to innovative problems of national importance. Since 1989, the program has motivated several hundred students to continue their studies in science and engineering and to go on to become technical professionals. Each summer the program brings between twenty to forty exceptional young people to the MITRE Corporation's campus in Northern Virginia. There, they work for eight to twelve weeks in paid positions in fields such as economics, computer science, systems engineering, biology, chemistry, physics, and nanotechnology.
A key element of the program is the one-on-one mentorship by members of MITRE's skilled technical staff. Each student works on a technical problem that has the potential for real-world impact and benefit to the nation. They often see the results of their technical projects featured in the national news. Students also benefit by publishing the results of their work in major scientific journals and even obtaining patents on their inventions. A number of students have gone on to win honors based upon their research at MITRE. These honors include prizes in local and national science contests, as well as undergraduate scholarships and prestigious graduate fellowships.
If you want to be inspired and learn more, you won't want to miss my interview with Dr. James Ellenbogen on KKZZ 1400 AM Radio in Ventura, CA. Read on or listen now to my third episode of Pocket Paulson! While you are there, don't forget to sign up for future podcast episodes!
As he noted, students get to work on and apply their nascent, but growing technical skills to these high profile problems, often seeing the results of their own technical projects featured in the national news. Students also have benefited by getting to publish the results of their work in major scientific journals and even obtain patents on their inventions. As a result of their efforts, a number of the participants in the MITRE Student Program also have gone on to win honors and awards based upon research efforts that they conducted or began at MITRE. These honors have included prizes in local and national science contests, as well as undergraduate scholarships and prestigious graduate fellowships.
Frequently, their summer experience at MITRE motivates them to return in successive summers. Some go on to make their adult careers at MITRE. However, the ultimate goal of MITRE's Student Program is to see its "graduates" go out into the wider world and benefit the entire nation. Over the years, a large number of graduates have joined the faculty and staff of major universities and corporations across the nation. Several are well on their way to becoming national leaders in their technical specialties and a few have gone on to start successful businesses. If you would like more information about MITRE's student program, please contact them directly at www.mitre.org.
As I often say to teenagers who want to know what career path to embrace, don't worry. Half of what you could do has not been invented yet! Just learn how to learn and embrace the journey. Many are saying that youths today need to lower their expectations. MITRE is one company that is helping teenagers prove that they can have an impact now!
Listen to all of Dr. Ellenbogen's Pocket Paulson interview, and you may find out more about how your organization can build a win/win relationship with your own "Nano Kids!" That will help provide your optimism advantage.


Discussion in 'Ham Radio Gear For Sale' started by NY7H, Apr 16, 2018.
Offering: I have here a Ten-Tec Omni D manufactured in 1979. Everything works as intended -- great signal, working CW/SSB filters, smooth VFO dial. Also included is the Ten-Tec Model 262G power supply, which has been used with this rig.
There is obviously wear-and-tear from its rather long age, but all panels/components are complete and look nice. It has never passed through the hands of smoking hams.
Request: As I recently became interested in setting up a working shack PC and working digital modes, I am beginning the search for any modern, low/medium power (but not QRP) rig, that at the very least supports some form of digital rig control.
I am looking for anyone who is willing to trade their rig -- used or new -- for this Ten-Tec. eBay suggests that the resale value is around $300 and I understand this alone may not suffice, so please feel free to make an offer - I am very willing to pay extra cash in addition to these. You will have these two items shipped to you, or you may pick them up from Northern California.
Please express your interest via PM, reply or email -- my address can be found on my QRZ page. I am also willing to talk on the phone, just let me know your number.
AA4BD and KA8UGB like this.
Sure - how much are you letting it go for?


Gabriel J. Fackre (1926-2018) A Remembrance | When I Survey . . .
I head down to Cape Cod this weekend to mourn the death and celebrate the life of my friend Gabe Fackre. Gabe was very important to my life. I knew him first as my seminary teacher, then my mentor, later a faithful colleague and a life-long friend. Most of all he encouraged me again and again in my ministry.
Gabe came to Andover Newton Theological School in 1970, the year before I did. It was really after seminary that we connected on a deep level. We were members of a covenant group of pastors and professors called the Highland Covenant, a group of about twenty of us, who met periodically at the Newton Highlands Congregational Church (where I was ordained). We prayed for each other and kept in touch with each other by way of round-robin letters.
But I really got to know Gabe through two of his important projects: the Craigville Colloquy and the Confessing Christ movement. When I say Gabe encouraged me in my ministry it was often because he talked me into something or he talked me out of something.
What did he talk me into? Let me count the ways. It was Gabe who encouraged me to attend the first Craigville Colloquy, where I ended up on the drafting committee of the First Craigville Letter to the Churches, a salient document in the United Church of Christ. That was a very significant event in my life.
It was Gabe who invited me to go with him to the very first Mercersburg Society Meeting. A van load of us (including Jim Crawford, Joe Bassett, Herb Davis, Horace Allen, and Ruth Duck) drove down from Andover Newton to Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, for that historic event.
It was Gabe who recommended me to be on the Committee on Ecclesiology for the UCC. Gabe got me involved with the Lutheran/Reformed dialog. Gabe encouraged me to publish a number of articles in journals. Gabe talked me into submitting and delivering two papers at Craigville. Gabe invited me to contribute to the book in his honor Story Lines. And it was Gabe who invited me in on the founding of Confessing Christ. Gabe also helped to get my book on the Atonement published and wrote an extraordinary Foreword to it.
But just as important were the things he talked me out of. For example, he talked me off a ledge more than once when I became frustrated with something the United Church of Christ was doing. I would call him up in a lather, and he would patiently listen while I ranted and then he would gently remind me, "You know, there are no ecclesiastical safe harbors, Rick." He encouraged many of his former students in this manner.
Ordained in the Evangelical and Reformed Church, he was always loyal to the United Church of Christ. He spent his life advocating for the Christian faith, and for the "generous orthodoxy" he believed in. While firm in his beliefs he was a patient and humble conversation partner with those who disagreed with him.
I think in America he was often underappreciated as a significant 20th century theologian. On my sabbaticals in the UK I met several importand theologians who knew him and his work, such as Colin Gunton and Nicholas Lasch. Gabe's books could be found in the theological bookshops in Oxford, Cambridge and St. Andrews. His long relationship with Eerdmans Publishing resulted in over thirty books. His narrative approach in his multi-volume The Christian Story has undergirded the theology of hundreds of his students and others.
Finally I must say something about Gabe's personal faith. A man of prayer, Gabe and his wife Dorothy were models of the devout Christian life. He would say that his Christian faith consisted of "core" and "care." Core" was the foundational "Christian Story" and "care" was all that naturally flowed from it: his care for others, his concern for the poor, his work for civil rights and on behalf of justice and peace. I give thanks to God for this wonderful man and for all he has meant to me and to the church of Jesus Christ. May he rest in peace and rise in glory!

How Can I Optimize for 'Near Me' Searches?
With voice-search technology becoming more and more prevalent in today's web search landscape, we are seeing a lot more people searching for services 'near me' instead of targeting a specific location.
The 'near me' search has increased by over double in the last year alone and about 15 times more compared to 2013, so what does this mean for local businesses? It means that it is important for a local business to optimize for these 'near me' searches.
Below are a few tips you can do to increase the overall friendliness of your site when it comes to near me searches.
Set up local business listings- With business reviews becoming more and more of a key factor that google uses when considering rankings, it's important that you are listed on review sites. This is crucial for Google's local search algorithm, and will be more important in upcoming years as well.
Local links are key- If you can get links from local sites such as events, directories, news sites, schools & colleges in your area and other non-competing companies that you may partner with this can greatly increase your chances to rank better in 'near me' based searches.
Sprinkle in 'near me' in your copy- If you can find a way to add 'near me' to some of your content it will help you get found easier for this search term. But remember, don't jam it in your content in an unnecessary fashion that doesn't sound organic, that's a good way to hurt your rankings rather than help. So, channel your inner Hemmingway and make your copy sound cohesive.
Be useful & quick- Most of the traffic that comes from 'near me' inquiry's will most likely be mobile for obvious reasons. Since the user is probably on the go you are going to want to be quick and useful when providing info to potential customers. This means providing relevant content to the specific keywords you are targeting, and quickly answering what the customer may have a question for. It is also important to have everything on your site optimized well for mobile.


Tax cuts, deregulation and the slashing of unnecessary red tape is the name of the game for Donald Trump at the moment with regards to sorting our financial wranglings in the US.
Of course, the liberal left is up in arms at this prospect, but to be fair the liberal left like throwing their arms up in the air for no reason anyway. If there's a protest to be had, they're there so just leave them to it.
The crux of the matter is that Donald Trump believes the country (USA) could prosper without the ball and chains that is the Dodd Frank Law.
The Dodd Frank law was put in place after the global financial crisis and its main purpose was to apparently stop another financial crisis from occurring. It was helped in place by Barack Obama.
Donald Trump, however, believes as opposed to protecting the country, the law serves nothing more but to restrict prosperity and business growth. He believes that some businesses have been rejected by the banks because of unnecessary red tape and this has limited their growth prospects, employment prospects and ultimately business success.
All Donald Trump has said on record is that he wants to look at reforming SOME of the regulations that are currently in place. What's wrong with that?
Trump is ultimately hoping that US banks will feel a lot more free from billions of pounds worth of regulation and that consumers will also be able to deal with banks more efficiently. The people who are set to benefit from the changes the most include entrepreneurs and middle class investors.
Many experts from the US and abroad believe it is a dangerous move and are sceptical of how far Trump should go. But we personally feel that some change is necessary and is a good thing. He hasn't said that he's going to do away with all the regulation in place, he's just going to alter and fine tune some things in order to make it easier for businesses and banks to liaise.
How much will change remains to be seen however. The changes that Donald Trump has tried to implement so far; whether that be immigration or red tape regarding the banking sector, has faced severe criticism and has been blocked. It hasn't been plain sailing by any stretch of the imagination. In all honesty, though, what he is saying and what he wants to implement isn't as far-fetched as many media outlets will lead you to believe.
In fact we believe if Britain followed his lead, especially with respect to giving more freedom for businesses to expand, we feel we'd be in a better place too.

Q: How can i navigate files retrieved from oneDrive using rest like FileDialog? I have retrieved a list of files from onedrive using the rest api call. It returns a json object with the file details and whether it is a directory or not.
So if the json object is returned and it has lets say 2 files and a directory , how can i navigate these using something similar to a file.dialog  ?
Update:
I have created a winform and populated the names of the files to a memoedit. so for example it will display
testfile1.txt
fileuser.xls
Users         <----- this is a directory

I want the user to be able to click on an item and if it is a file it will get the selected value if its a file , but navigate to the sub directory if it is a directory ?
On a side note do i need to check if its a directory then refetch the list of files within that directory via rest again and keep doing that ?


I have installed the OCS Server ver. 2.0.5 with windows and Mac clients. My problem is that Mac clents don't update to the Server but windows clients work fine. I use MacOSX version 1.1 because when I installed the latest version wasn't work at all.
The latest version can't work because your installation is old. If you want to use the latest version of the agent, you must have the latest version of the server.

Theres plenty of allies for solving Animation Industry Skills Gaps in Higher Education, says Saint John Walker,; you just need to give them a forum.
Could the creative industries help their recruitment of new entrants by examining and manipulating the dynamics of motivation within young people, and revisit the language we use to portray our world to them?
We need to stretch the definition of VFX away from being a 'guns for hire' service industry for films to an art that can imagine and build new worlds that exist in their own right. The 8 Studio Habits of Mind can help us do this.
