Card Payments – Relaxation in requirement of Additional Factor of Authentication for small value card present transactions

May 14, 2015

The Chairman and Managing Director / Chief Executive Officer
All Scheduled Commercial Banks including RRBs /
Urban Co-operative Banks / State Co-operative Banks /
District Central Co-operative Banks/Authorised Card Payment Networks

Madam / Sir

Card Payments – Relaxation in requirement of Additional Factor of Authentication for small value card present transactions

Reserve Bank has issued various instructions on security of card transactions and risk mitigation measures, including directions on online alerts as well as on additional factor of authentication. These measures have significantly increased customer confidence in using cards.

2. In the recent past, Reserve Bank has received requests for waiver of requirement of the additional factor of authentication (AFA) so as to foster innovative payment products / processes as also enhance the convenience factor in certain types of card transactions. After examining the trade-off between security and convenience in card transactions, Reserve Bank had placed for public comments a draft circular outlining the relaxation in the need for AFA in case of small value card present transactions using Near Field Communication (NFC) contactless technology subject to adherence to EMV standards.

3. The comments received on the draft circular have been examined. Accordingly, it has been decided to relax the extant instructions relating to the need for AFA requirements for small value card present transactions only using contact-less cards. In this regard, it is advised that -

  1. Relaxation for AFA requirement is permitted for transactions for a maximum value of Rs 2,000/- per transaction;

  2. The limit of Rs.2000/- per transaction will be the limit set across all categories of merchants in the country where such contactless payments will be accepted;

  3. Beyond this transaction limit, the card has to be processed as a contact payment and authentication with PIN (AFA) will be mandatory;

  4. Even for transaction values below this limit, the customer may choose to make payment as a contact payment, which has to be facilitated by both issuing and acquiring banks. In other words, customers cannot be compelled to do a contactless payment;

  5. Banks are free to facilitate their customers to set lower per-transaction limits. The responsibility for authorizing the contactless payment based on such card-based limits will lie with the card issuing banks;

  6. Suitable velocity checks (i.e., how many such small value transactions will be allowed in a day / week / month) may be put in place by banks as considered appropriate; and

  7. The contactless cards should necessarily be chip cards adhering to EMV payment standard, so as to be acceptable across the existing card acceptance infrastructure which are EMV compliant based on the earlier mandate in this regard.

4. Further, in the interest of customer awareness and protection the banks are also advised:

  1. to clearly explain to customers about the technology, its use, and risks while issuing such contact less cards;

  2. to create awareness among customers to look for / identify the “contactless” logo on the card (to distinguish them from other cards) as well as the merchant location / POS terminal (to identify that contactless payments are accepted at that location);

  3. to clearly indicate to the customers that they can use the card in contactless mode (without PIN authentication) for transactions upto Rs.2000/- in locations where contactless payments are accepted and to make customers aware that they are free to use the same card as a regular chip card (with PIN authentication) at any location irrespective of transaction value;

  4. to clearly indicate the maximum liability devolving on the customer, if any, at the time of issuance of such cards along with the responsibility of the customer to report the loss of such cards to the bank; and

  5. to put in place robust mechanism for seamless reporting of lost/stolen cards, which can be accessed through multiple channels (website, phone banking, SMS, IVR etc.).

5. It may, however, be noted that the above relaxations shall not apply to:

  1. ATM transactions irrespective of transaction value; and

  2. Card Not Present transactions (CNP).

6. This directive is issued under Section 10(2) read with Section 18 of Payment and Settlement Systems Act 2007 (Act 51 of 2007).

Yours faithfully

(Nanda S Dave)
Chief General Manager

Northern beaches house where Schindler’s List was written up for sale

Kathryn Welling

Kathryn Welling

11 Oct 2019, 12:00pm

Manly Daily
24/04/1996 PIRATE: Undated. Actor Liam Neeson in scene from film 'Schindler's List'.

Liam Neeson in a scene from the film ‘Schindler’s List’. The book was written in Sydney and the house where it was penned is for sale.

The house where author Tom Keneally lived for three decades and wrote Schindler’s Ark — turned into the movie Schindler’s List — is now for sale.

The beachside home is being auctioned this month with a $4.4 million guide allowing someone else the chance to enjoy an inspirational view and a path down to the sea.

199th Parramatta Female Factory anniversary

Award-winning author Tom Keneally spent three decades living in Bilgola Beach.

When he has downsizing in 2008 Keneally described his Bilgola Beach home at the point where The Serpentine snakes its way past the beachfront.

“It is a steadfast house, full of light and open to the sea,’’ he said at the time.

“The house gives enough protection to have a fully fledged garden on the top even though I am not a gardener and the bottom faces south and is open to the gales and we get some magnificent gales,’’ he said.

An impressive position near the sand.

A view to get inspired by.

Among the 30 novels he has penned several were written from the beachside house he shared with his wife Judy. Schindler’s Ark, which was written at the property, went on to win the international Booker Prize in 1982 and was turned into the movie Schindler’s List by director Steven Spielberg and starring Liam Neeson.

Keneally wrote his powerful novel following a chance encounter with Leonard Pfefferberg, a Polish Jew who owed his survival to Schindler. The author had gone into Pfefferberg’s store to buy a new briefcase; the shop owner, learning that Keneally was an author told him how he had survived the Holocaust and showed him a copy of the famous list. Keneally was hooked.

Keneally wrote fiction and nonfiction and more recently has collaborated with his writer daughter Meg.

The two decks were loved by the Keneally’s grandchildren.

Light and bright.

After 30 years living at Bilgola Beach Mr Keneally felt overwhelmed by his personal library and started looking for a way to downsize in the Manly area. An offer to house his collection in central Sydney allowed the Keneallys to sell their home in 2008 for $3.2 million.

Now the five-bedroom, four-bathroom house on 620sqm of land is for sale again.

Agent James Baker, of McGrath Avalon, said The Serpentine house had a magnificent setting, sweeping views and a pathway to the sand and surf. Two decks face the ocean, there are level lawns and a garden adjoining a reserve.

The exclusive beach enclave goes to auction on Sunday October 27.

  1. Sport and recreational are USA pilot ratings and only good in the USA. Neither is ICAO certified so may not operate outside the US and are below a Private. The Sport rating is very popular as less training is required and no medical either, but does have many restrictions. IG. no night flying, only one passenger. limited to certian airspace. The Recreational never caught on as it required a medical and took as much training as a private.

Light sport aircraft were to be affordable not several hundred thousand dollars. A powered parachute is all I can afford to fly and when I do fly I have the airport to myself. This photo is what most airports look like not a single GA on the ramp.

To take complete advantage of big data, enterprises must take a holistic approach and transform their view of storage from a ‘data destination’ to a ‘data platform.’ As a platform for big data and not just a destination for data storage, enterprise storage solutions need to deliver cost-effective scale and capacity; eliminate data migration and incorporate the ability to grow without bound; bridge legacy storage silos; provide global accessibility of data; and protect and maintain the availability of data.

1. Deliver cost-effective scale and capacity
To minimize cost, a big data storage platform must take a ‘scale-out’ approach, achieving scale by pooling industry-standard commodity servers and storage devices. This offers not only low costs today, but also the ability to benefit from increased buying power as hardware gets better, faster and cheaper over time. An effective big data storage system must also be scalable in the performance dimension, so that applications experience no degradation in performance as the volume of data in the system is increased.

2. Eliminate data migration
With enterprise data stores now approaching petabyte sizes, wholesale data migration is no longer logistically or financially feasible. A big data platform must address the requirement for periodic data migration by providing a system with the ability to grow without bound.

3. Bridge legacy storage silos
To be able to fully exploit the opportunities of big data, companies must be able to access and use all of their data without ad-hoc interventions. To enable this, a big data storage platform must bridge these legacy storage silos, rather than simply add yet another storage solution to the mix.

4. Provide global accessibility of data
A centralized approach to data management is no longer workable in the age of big data: data volumes are too large, WAN bandwidth is too limited, and the consequences of a single point of failure are too costly. A big data storage platform must be able to manage, as a single, unified pool, data that is distributed across the global enterprise.

5. Protect and maintain the availability of data
Rather than seeking to protect against failure through the use of proprietary, enterprise-grade hardware, a big data storage platform must assume that hardware failure is inevitable and offer data availability and integrity through intelligent software.

We expand on these must-haves for big data storage in a newly published white paper. If you’re interested in a deeper look into these areas, download that white paper here. Or, if you’re interested in Red Hat Storage, visit

Kelly Clarkson Brings Out This Stranger Things Star's Angelic Voice

Photo: Neilson Barnard/Getty Images.
The universe has gifted us with something we never knew we needed: Kelly Clarkson and Stranger Things star, Gaten Matarazzo, hanging out together in a golf cart...singing.
On Friday, the “Love So Soft” singer shared a promotional video on her Instagram account. “Did you know: [Gatten] of #StrangerThings has an awesome voice?” read part of her caption.
The snippet features Matarazzo picking up Clarkson in a “WE Day” shuttle. WE Day is an annual event that features performers and notable guest speakers to support the children’s charity, WE. Clarkson hosted the organization’s Toronto event two months ago, which airs tonight. After picking up Clarkson, the two stars sing a couple of tunes.
First up was “We Are Family” by Sister Sledge. The second song the adorable duo sang was Queen’s “We Are The Champions.” I spy a theme happening.
Matarazzo nails both tunes, much to the delight of commenters on Clarkson’s video. Though it's worth noting that this isn’t the first time we’ve been introduced to the Stranger Things star’s pipes. A video surfaced in 2016, featuring Matarazzo singing a pretty heavy Broadway hit. The star crooned "Bring Him Home" from Les Misérables. Matarazzo, who most fans know as the adorable but curious Dustin Henderson on hit Netflix show, was also Gavroche in the iconic Broadway musical.
It’s clear that even as a young child Matarazzo has some pretty major vocal skills, he was also invited to sing the National Anthem at a sporting event in 2014.
Here’s hoping we see Clarkson and Matarazzo on a full-length feature in the future.
Check out a few of Matarazzo’s throwbacks below.

Site Visit and Analysis

Sitting along Rochor Canal, part of the site for the BTOs used to be home to the former Sungei Road flea market, otherwise also known as the Thieves’ Market. In 2017, it was forced to close due to plans to redevelop the area. Included in this plan was to create more residential homes, eventually manifesting as these two BTO developments, linked via a bridge.

Rochor Canal (right) is situated next to the BTOs.

River Peaks II is also located right next to Sim Lim Tower, which interestingly underwent its first en-bloc attempt this year. If successful, the building will make way for another high-rise commercial project, but you will likely have to contend with some construction works happening in the interim.

The surrounding area is a hive of activity. Very busy roads, particularly along Jalan Besar, and very high footfall. Driving around the area will also be relatively stressful because of the heavy traffic. Come nightfall, the shophouses across the road and along Jalan Besar housing motels, hostels, late-night eateries, massage parlours and KTVs come alive. There is definitely a shady connotation in this area, but its prime locale and its abundance of amenities can make one forget that.

Rows of conserved shophouses for commercial activities (left) are located across the road from the BTOs.

One of the biggest new developments residents at River Peaks I and II can expect is the North-South Corridor, a new expressway starting from Woodlands all the way to the Central Business District. Scheduled for completion by 2026, it will bypass neighbourhoods like Yishun, Ang Mo Kio, Toa Payoh, Serangoon as well as Rochor (at the former Rochor Centre site) and will encompass bus and cycling lanes that will boost Singapore’s car-lite vision.

There are a number of big, glitzy shopping malls within a short walking distance: Bugis+ (9-min walk), Bugis Junction (10-min walk), and City Square Mall (12-min walk). The nearest hawker centres are just down the road at Besar Food Centre (5-min walk) or across the Rochor Canal at Albert Market and Food Centre (8-min walk). For groceries, the nearest one is available on site at River Peaks I on the first floor.

Bugis Junction.

The nearest MRT station to the BTOs is Jalan Besar, on the Downtown Line, with one of the exits located at the River Peaks II site. But if you are looking to hop onto the North-East Line or the East-West Line, Little India Interchange (Downtown/North-East) and Bugis Interchange (Downtown/East-West) are just a 10- and 11-min walk away respectively.

The BTOs are within walking distance to three MRT stations.

Sure you have all the amenities and convenience nearby, but the restrictions are likely going to put a damper on things. Alternatively, if you can wait a bit longer, Feb 2022’s Kallang/Whampoa BTO site looks set to be located near these Rochor BTOs. We aren’t absolutely sure if they will be subjected to the PLH restrictions though.

For unblocked and canal views:

  • Stacks 113 and 115 are situated right in front of Rochor canal. Beyond that is a small reserve site, a church (with a height restriction of 5 storeys). And beyond those is the upcoming North-South Corridor, so you do get quite a distance of unblocked views.
  • Stacks 122 and 124 are further away from Rochor canal, but you are likely to still get relatively decent views especially if you are on a higher level.
  • Stack 108, situated next to the stack of rental flats, is facing existing HDB block 30 on Kelantan Road. Block 30 is 16 storeys. Get a unit above that for unblocked views.

Noise from human activity zones:

  • While some of the human activity zones are placed on the first storey, there are some human activity zones (pavilion and playground) that are situated on the landscape deck itself. This can pose a noise problem for some stacks since the units all start above the landscape deck. These stacks include 108, 122 and 124 that are located close to these human activity zones on the landscape deck.

Some of the facilities, including a supermarket and an F&B outlet, are located on the first floor, away from the units.

No afternoon sun:

  • Stack 107 is least likely to get the afternoon sun, seeing as it is partially blocked by neighbouring stacks.

Better layout:

  • There are two layouts to choose from for 4-room units.
  • The main differences lie in the kitchen. Layout 1 has a galley kitchen layout, while Layout 2 comes with a boxier kitchen. For Layout 2, you can consider hacking the wall between the yard and the kitchen for a roomier cooking zone with more prep countertop space. For those considering an open kitchen, Layout 1 may be more conducive.
  • The bomb shelter door opens up to the kitchen in Layout 2, which is great if you are using the bomb shelter as a pantry. If you are using the bomb shelter as general storage or a shoe storage, consider going for Layout 1 instead, which has the bomb shelter door opening out into the foyer.
  • The living/dining area in Layout 1 is set in a linear layout and comes with a long wall, which is a better option for uninterrupted storage. Layout 2 has the living/dining area in two different segments. Also, Layout 2 has the entrance opening up right into the living room. So unless you are going to do some layout changes, it may not be ideal since you won’t have a foyer area.

For unblocked and canal views:

  • Stacks 100, 101, 102, 103, 110 and 112 are overlooking Rochor canal. Beyond that is a small reserve site, a church (with a height restriction of 5 storeys). And beyond those is the North-South Corridor. Plenty of uninterrupted views.
  • Stack 121 is located further in, so it’s some distance away from Rochor canal, but you will still enjoy unblocked views.
  • Stack 109 facing the conserved shophouses along Jalan Besar may also enjoy decent unblocked views. These conserved shophouses have a maximum 4-storey height restriction.

The dark blue zones represent conservation sites, according to the map from URA.

For privacy:

  • Most of the blocks are four units to one (save for block 36A with the rental stack) and are located near the lifts, so there isn’t one stack that enjoys exceptional privacy. But having a unit not facing the lifts will afford you just a bit more privacy than the rest. These are the stacks to pick: 100, 101, 102, 103, 109, 110, 111, 112, 117, 118, 119 and 120. Interesting to note that these stacks are also of Layout 2.

No afternoon sun:

  • Go for stacks 116 and 121, which will be able to receive some shade from neighbouring blocks so you won’t get the brunt of the afternoon sun.

Noise from human activity zones:

  • While some of the human activity zones are placed on the first storey, there are some human activity zones (pavilion, trellis (possibly with seating), fitness corners and playgrounds) that are situated on the landscape deck itself. This can pose a noise problem since the units all start above the landscape deck. You may want to avoid stacks 104, 109, 110, 118, 119, 120 and 123 that are located very close to these human activity zones on the landscape deck, especially ones on the lower floors.

Some of the facilities and amenities at River Peaks I and II will be located on the landscape deck.

Facing the MRT entrance and MRT ventilation shaft:

  • Noise levels and foot traffic are likely going to be high near the MRT entrance, so take note if you are going for Stacks 117 and 119.
  • For stacks 118 and 120 facing the MRT ventilation shaft, you may be affected by air flow noise or warmer temperatures from the ventilation shaft.

Traffic noise:

  • Most of the 4-room units are unlikely to face traffic noise, since there is a decent amount of buffer. Stacks likeliest to be affected by traffic noise are 110 and 112, which face Weld Road/Arab Street. These are pretty major roads.

What's in that bottle? Congress says water unclear

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Bottled water makers make millions off people who believe their products are purer than tap water, but consumers do not realize that they are less regulated than plain old tap water, according to a U.S. Congressional report released on Wednesday.

The report from the General Accountability Office also found that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has little power to regulate the safety of bottled water, and even states with the power to regulate it concentrate more on tap water.

The report was just one piece of ammunition unleashed at the bottled water industry at a hearing of the House of Representatives Energy and Commerce Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations.

“Of particular note, FDA does not have the specific statutory authority to require bottlers to use certified laboratories for water quality tests or to report test results, even if violations of the standards are found,” the GAO report reads.

Jane Houlihan of the Environmental Working Group, an advocacy organization that submitted a second report to the committee, said in a statement: “Many people assume bottled water is healthier and safer to drink than ordinary tap water.

“But some companies have lured consumers away from the tap with claims of health and purity that aren’t backed by public data.”

Sponsors of the hearing agreed.

“Americans are willing to pay top dollar for bottled water, which costs up to 1,900 times more than tap water and uses up to 2,000 times more energy to produce and deliver,” Michigan Representative Bart Stupak told the hearing.

“Over the past several years, however, bottled water has been recalled due to contamination by arsenic, bromate, cleaning compounds, mold, and bacteria. In April, a dozen students at a California junior high school reportedly were sickened after drinking bottled water from a vending machine.”

Joseph Doss, president and chief executive officer of the International Bottled Water Association, told the hearing that Americans drank 8.7 billion gallons (33 billion liters) of water in 2008, or 28.5 gallons (108 liters) per person.

“Sales revenues for the United States bottled water market in 2008 were approximately $11.2 billion,” Doss said. “Bottled water consumption is about half that of carbonated soft drinks and only slightly ahead of milk and beer.

The GAO found that the FDA does not regulate a compound called DEHP in bottled water. The Environmental Protection Agency regulated levels of DEHP, a so-called phthalate linked to some health risks, in tap water.

“Specifically, FDA deferred action on DEHP in a final rule published in 1996 and has yet to either adopt a standard or publish a reason for not doing so on the safety of bottled water,” the GAO said.

Doss said DEHP was unlikely to be in bottled water, which he said was governed by several layers of regulation.

Stupak pointed out some of the claims by bottled water makers.

“Aquamantra uses the design on its labels to affect the molecular structure of California natural spring water to make it more refreshing and wholesome to drink,” one company’s website claims.

Poland Springs water talks about a polio victim who lived 52 years more after drinking water from its spring.

China official says West using Christianity to 'subvert' power

BEIJING (Reuters) - Western forces are trying to use Christianity to influence China’s society and even “subvert” the government, a senior official said, warning that Chinese Christians needed to follow a Chinese model of the religion.

FILE PHOTO: A believer reads the bible during mass at St. Joseph's Church, a government-sanctioned Catholic church, in Beijing, China, October 1, 2018. REUTERS/Thomas Peter

China’s constitution guarantees religious freedom, but since President Xi Jinping took office six years ago, the government has tightened restrictions on religions seen as a challenge to the authority of the ruling Communist Party.

The government has cracked down on underground churches, both Protestant and Catholic, even as it seeks to improve relations with the Vatican.

In a speech on Monday, Xu Xiaohong head of the National Committee of the Three-Self Patriotic Movement of the Protestant Churches in China, said there were many problems with Christianity in the country, including “infiltration” from abroad and “private meeting places”.

“It must be recognized that our movement’s surname is ‘China’ and not ‘Western’,” Xu said, according to remarks reported on Tuesday by the United Front Work Department, which is in charge of co-opting non-communists, ethnic minorities and religious groups.

“Anti-China forces in the West are trying to continue to influence China’s social stability and even subvert our country’s political power through Christianity, and it is doomed to fail,” he said, speaking to parliament’s largely ceremonial advisory body.

“For individual black sheep who, under the banner of Christianity, participate in subverting national security, we firmly support the country to bring them to justice.”

Only by eliminating the “stigma of foreign religion” in China’s Christianity can its believers benefit society, he added.

“Only by continually drawing on the fine traditions of Chinese culture, can China’s Christianity be rooted in the fertile soil of Chinese culture and become a religion recognized by the Chinese themselves,” Xu added.

“Only by continuously carrying forward and practicing the core values of socialism can our Christianity truly be suited to socialist society.”

China has been following a policy it calls the “Sinicisation” of religion, trying to root out foreign influences and enforce obedience to the Communist Party.

Restrictions on religion have attracted particular concern in the United States. Last week, during a visit to Hong Kong, the U.S. ambassador for religious freedom called on Beijing to end religious persecution.

What China calls a de-radicalisation program in its restive far western region of Xinjiang has also caused widespread opprobrium in Western capitals and amongst rights groups, who say authorities have been placing Muslims there in internment camps.

The government says they are vocational training centers where the Uighur people who call Xinjiang home and other Muslim peoples are sent to learn about the law and the Mandarin language, and has defended the practice.

Yang Jie, an imam from Xinjiang, told the same advisory body on Monday that some adherents had poor “religious and civic awareness”, which made them vulnerable to “the temptation and incitement of religious extremist forces”.

They mistakenly believed that their religion came before their citizenship, and that certain illegal acts were a “firm expression of faith”, Yang said.

“This wrong view and behavior has seriously affected social stability, ethnic unity and religious harmony, and has vilified the social image of the Muslim community and must be resolutely stopped.”

Fill Of The Week instagram Tips for students

Drum Fill Of The Week #83

This week’s drum fill sees us take the inverted paradiddle out for spin around the kit.

Watch Drum Fill Of The Week #83 on Instagram.

The inverted paradiddle is easily one of my favourite rudiments; when accented and combined with other members of the paraddidle family it creates some great sticking patterns that can be used in grooves and fills. For this fill we’re just using the Right hand lead inverted paradiddle (RLLR) to create a simple drum fill.

Learn The Fill

Let’s start by looking at the basic pattern we’ll be using for this fill.

Play it on the snare or even on a chair

Our fill consists of 3 right hand lead inverted paradiddles played as 16th notes. The first two are followed by an single left hand 8th note to add space to the fill. This phrasing is very common and very musical; you’ve probably seen it in some other fills, including on this website.

Get used to playing this pattern and count out loud as you do. You might want to practice adding a bass drum and crash on beat 1 of the next bar also. Be sure to hit the crash with your left hand.

Now let’s orchestrate the right hand around the kit. There are many ways you could do this. I finally settled on alternating between the high tom and the floor tom. We’ll keep the left on the snare for now.

High Tom – Floor Tom

Finally we’ll move the left hand around a little bit. I decided to play all left hand double strokes on the snare and the single strokes on the high tom.

The full fill

Take It Further

There are many ways to reorchestrate this drum fill around the kit. I suggest you explore and create some of your own. Here’s a couple of additional things you could do with it:

Change it up!

The first variation for this drum fill has us filling in the gaps with the bass drum. Try this out to create a more powerful sound.

The second variation has us changing the subdivision of the inverted paradiddles to 16th note triplets. This creates more space and gives the drum fill a different feel.

I hope you’ve enjoyed drum fill of the week #83. If you’re in Singapore and you’d like a free trial drum lesson, send us a message via the contact us page.

Thomas Moore at 240!

28 June 2019

In this month's Library blog post Harry White, MRIA, Professor of Music, University College Dublin, takes a look at our current exhibition Discovering Thomas Moore: Ireland in nineteenth-century Europe.

‘Where in Germany, even today, would you find three such literary heroes to set beside Lord Byron, Moore and Walter Scott?’, enquired the great German writer and statesman, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe in 1824.  For many people, it comes as a surprise to see Thomas Moore in such company, in the front rank of British literary romanticism, because his reputation in the interim has dwindled to a handful of well-beloved songs from the Irish melodies, and not much besides. Moore was in fact an originary and formative presence in the development of European music and letters in the first half of the nineteenth century, and the circulation of his poetry, fiction and lyric verse exerted considerable influence on many composers, including Robert Schumann and Hector Berlioz. Schumann’s setting of the second part of Moore’s Lalla Rookh, ‘Paradise and the Peri’ (in German translation) and Berlioz’s Mélodies irlandaises (settings in French translation of Moore’s verse from the Irish melodies) affirm a more general popularity for Moore’s poetry on the continent.

Moore’s long poem — Lalla Rookh — became an overnight success on its publication in 1817.  The poem relates the journey of Lalla Rookh, an Indian princess, from her homeland  to Kashmir for her wedding to the king there.  En route she meets a poet who accompanies her and beguiles her with the story of a fallen angel (the Peri) who has to pass several tests in order to gain entry to Paradise. Lalla Rookh falls in love with the poet who turns out to be her betrothed in disguise!  Schumann remarked that the verse was ‘intended for music, as if from the start’. The poem was part of a vogue for orientalism in Europe and was widely admired and translated.

This year we celebrate the 240th anniversary of Moore’s birth in Dublin on 28 May 1779 with an exhibition at the Academy Library, curated by Dr Sarah McCleave, Senior Musicologist at the School of Arts, English & Languages, Queen’s University of Belfast.

The materials on display recapture not only Moore’s phenomenal success as a poet and lyricist in Europe, but his often neglected reputation as a novelist, satirist, biographer and historian. In recent years, these aspects of Moore’s intellectual estate have received at least something of their due from literary historians and musicologists, just as Moore’s extraordinary life has been magisterially recovered in Ronan Kelly’s 2008 biography, Bard of Erin[i]. Throughout that life, the very idea of Ireland abides, even in Moore’s imagined orient. Moore’s inventions were assuredly romantic, but they were also grounded in a scientific apprehension of scholarly sources and a lively political awareness of injustice and repression. His instincts as a romantic poet were constantly mediated by an antiquarian appeal to the authority of historical documents, and his brilliance as a biographer (particularly of Lord Edward FitzGerald) was fired by ‘that time of terror and torture’ which Moore experienced as a young student in Trinity College Dublin, following the failed rebellion of 1798. Throughout his writing career, as many of the items displayed in the exhibition demonstrate, Moore’s sense of responsibility to empirical evidence anchored the flight of his auditory imagination.

The rich resources of the Royal Irish Academy (which houses the greater part of Moore’s private library) and of the Gibson Massie collection in Queen’s University Belfast combine in this exhibition to commemorate the 240th anniversary of the birth of a writer whose profound Irishness was deeply inflected by his European reception and afterlife. In the present moment of European crisis, such a commemoration could scarcely be timelier.

Harry White, MRIA, Professor of Music, University College Dublin

The exhibition Discovering Thomas Moore: Ireland in nineteenth-century Europe is on display at Academy House until 23 December 2019. Our booklet — Sarah McCleave, Discovering Thomas Moore: Ireland in nineteenth-century Europe (Dublin, 2019) — is available at the exhibition.   ISBN: 978-1-911479-22-2

Discover Moore with the Erin Catalogue project. Based at Queen's University Belfast and co-funded by the Horizon 2020 Framework Programme of the European Union, ERIN, or Europe’s Reception of the Irish Melodies & National Airs: Thomas Moore in Europe, is an open access online resource which maps Europe’s response to the Irish Melodies, documents the chronological and geographical dissemination of the National Airs and identifies European music editions of the songs, operas and ballets from or based on the poem Lalla Rookh.

What Will the UK's Plastic Packaging Tax Mean for You?

UK Plastic Packaging Tax legislation taking effect 1st April 2022. Richmond Containers plastic packaging, many products already contain 30% plus recycled content

From 1st April 2022, manufacturers and importers of plastic packaging in the UK will be subject to a tax of £200 per tonne, for packaging containing less than 30% recycled content.

***Updated Content 20th October 2021***

So will I have to pay the tax?

Not directly - unless you manufacture or import plastic packaging, but bear in mind that this includes importing of 'filled packaging'. It is clear in the bill relating to the tax that it will be payable by producers and importers of plastic packaging within the UK.

There's a bit more to it than that - as always, while the concept of taxing virgin plastic packaging is simple, when it comes to defining the rules, it gets a little more complex! Download the HMRC's own flowcharts and guides below to find out if your product and/or company is liable:

Current government guidance states that the tax is "not expected to have any significant macroeconomic impacts", and that even if tax is passed on to consumers in the form of price increases, "the cost to consumers will be small as plastic packaging usually makes up a very small amount of the total cost of goods".

We do think it's important to reinforce the point that imported packaging is to be liable for the tax whether the packaging is 'filled or unfilled' - so it will apply to products being imported into the UK in plastic packs.

Are there any exceptions?

Obviously, if the plastic packaging has 30% or more recycled content, it will not be taxed.

Other exceptions will include:

  • Plastic packaging being manufactured or imported as immediate packaging of licenced human medicines
  • Plastic in use as 'transport packaging' to import products into the UK
  • Plastic packaging being exported out of the UK, unless it is in use as 'transport packaging'
  • Packaging containing multiple materials, where they do not contain more plastic than any other single material, by weight
  • Companies manufacturing or importing less than 10 tonnes of plastic packaging per annum will not have to register to pay the tax

There are other more complex aspects too, such as whether the product could actually not be used at all by any method, without the plastic component. The HMRC guides which can be downloaded above are very useful in running through all of the criteria. The Richmond team will be happy to talk to you about this, but we are not legal advisers, therefore the information in this blog, and any information given informally, cannot be treated as legal advice and cannot be taken in lieu of legal advice.

How do I avoid paying the tax?

The most straightforward way to avoid the tax is to use either plastic packaging with greater than 30% recycled content, or to choose alternatives to plastic materials.

As this is not always possible, or indeed may not always be the most environmentally friendly option when you consider your entire Product Lifecycle Analysis, you should also ensure that you have calculated the actual cost impact on your product (given that packaging is not normally the biggest proportion of the product cost, and at £200 per tonne, the tax may not cause significant increase).

Is the 30% recycled content calculated on my entire pack (for example, if my plastic bottle contains 100% recycled content, but the matching plastic pump contains zero recycled content)?

The percentage of recycled content is calculated by weight, on each individual piece of packaging manufactured or imported. The proof of the content will be the individual specification sheets. This means, if our assumptions are correct, that in the example above the bottle should contain at least 30% recycled content AND the pump should also contain at least 30% recycled content. We do not, however, recommend basing any major decisions on this assumption alone, and we recommend that you seek professional advice if you are unsure.

What part do Richmond play in all this?

We are pleased to say that Richmond are working in advance of the introduction of this tax (due for implementation 1st April 2022) and already have a number of products in our range which contain 30% or more recycled content. The amount of recycled content (PCR or Post-Consumer Recycled resin) in our plastic products is denoted by PCR, followed by the percentage. For example, a product with 30% recycled content would contain 'PCR30' in the description.

Please note that we can produce other products in PCR plastics, but a specific MOQ will apply for each project. You can contact us to enquire, or call the office on 01355 236 170 or 0208 057 4440.

Global Blood Therapeutics

– Disease Awareness

Before Global Blood Therapeutics (GBT) launched Oxbryta, its breakthrough prescription medicine for Sickle Cell Disease, the biopharmaceutical pioneer engaged RIESTER to create a disease awareness campaign to educate the community about life withthe disease. Because of stigma and layers of misperceptions and cultural norms, patients and their families often suffered in painful silence. To break the barriers,RIESTER worked with GBT to create Sickle Cell Speaks, a multi-media campaign providing the Sickle Cell community a platform and the patients a voice.

Mekhi understands what the disease means to his life. Now he wants others to understand.

This amazing young lady knows firsthand how tough the disease can be, but she is not letting it slow her down.

Frequently Asked Questions

Making a decision about caregiving for a loved one is never easy. To be comfortable with your options, you need answers. We hope the following information is a good start. If your questions aren’t completely answered, call us today at (512) 465-9900. We'd be glad to speak with you about your specific family situation.

Right at Home was founded in Omaha, Nebraska, in 1995.

Right at Home Austin West provides numerous home care services to families just like yours. A full list of services can be found on our services page. To see how we might be able to help your family specifically, take our Care Assessment. To see how we help families just like yours, read our Care Profiles or read our in-home care customer testimonials.

Right at Home Austin West provides in-home care services in the following areas:

Austin, Bastrop, Bee Caves, Burnet, Circle C, Driftwood, Dripping Springs, Elgin, Lakeway, Manchaca, Marble Falls, Rollingwood, Smithville, Spicewood, Steiner Ranch, Tarrytown, Village of the Hills, Westlake, Westlake Hills, Wimberly.

Yes. Every caregiver is employed by the local Right at Home office. To help ensure the safety and well-being of our clients, we perform a criminal history background clearance and then cover each caregiver with general liability and workers' compensation insurance.

Yes. We do our best to take the guesswork out of matching the right caregiver with you and your family by using our proprietary screening and selection system. We encourage your involvement in the decision-making process. Your satisfaction is important so we try to accommodate requests for a change in caregivers, as allowed by law.

Our goal is to establish a long-term caregiving relationship with your loved one. Should your family want to request another caregiver for any reason, we'll search for a match until your family is happy. We understand that a strong rapport and trust with a caregiver are vital to a successful in-home care experience.

If your loved one receives care for many hours in a day or at different times of the day throughout the week, it may be necessary to schedule more than one caregiver in a given week. If your family requires multiple caregivers, our goal is the same: We want you to be satisfied and happy. We'll do what it takes to make sure we achieve that goal.

Right at Home Austin West would like to discuss your medication concerns. Give us a call at (512) 465-9900.

You can change the frequency or type of service we provide your loved one whenever it's necessary. We understand the care situation can quickly change, so we're as flexible as possible with your loved one's care.

Right at Home uses several tools to track the care our caregivers provide. First, we use simple time sheets filled out by each caregiver. Then, we use a combination of internet-based solutions to verify time and attendance. This allows you to have a written record of care services provided in the home. We can also provide written verification at any time.

Also, our itemized invoices are always sent after services are complete. This lets you ask any questions about time or date of care, and it allows us to make any schedule adjustments before your next invoice is sent.

No. You don't need pre-authorization, pre-qualification, certification or even a prescription for Right at Home's services. You choose the services you want, when to start those services and how often those services are used.

If you request assistance with billing a private insurance policy (such as long-term care insurance) for our services, we would be happy to help with the entire "benefits coordination" process. This includes providing any documentation you may need for reimbursement by an insurance carrier.

Every family we serve receives a custom care plan specific to their needs and budget. Several factors help determine the exact cost:

  • Number of hours of care per week
  • Level of home care services received (nonmedical, skilled nursing, etc.)
  • Area of the country where services are provided

Our home care services are typically billed on an hourly basis. This makes it easy to make a custom care plan for you. To discuss the exact rates for the services you may need, contact your local office. We’ll set up an in-home consultation to begin discussing a custom care plan and the rates for each service on your plan.

We always provide a written rate sheet prior to initiating care services. Rates will never be increased without at least 30 days’ notice.

Medicare provides an eligibility tool to see if your family qualifies, but they typically don't pay for the type of hourly personal care service that Right at Home provides. Right at Home may be able to provide documentation to third parties such as long-term care insurance companies that could help you obtain the best coverage possible.

Additionally, Right at Home has preferred relationships with many companies that either fully reimburse or partially reimburse for home health care. Typical accounts for reimbursement include reverse mortgage, health savings accounts and flexible spending accounts.

We also work with reimbursement programs like Veterans Aid and Attendance, a benefit paid to veterans and surviving spouses who require our services; the benefit is in addition to their monthly pension.

No. You (or an authorized representative) are only invoiced after the completion of services. Usually, this happens weekly. You never have to pay caregivers directly. And you'll never be asked to pay an additional fee to any employee.

We adhere to all applicable federal and state guidelines related to privacy of personal and health care information. This starts once we have a formal service agreement, before a caregiver even comes to your family member's home. The written service agreement stipulates the exact restrictions on the use of your information, which clarifies that unauthorized individuals will not be given access to information without a client's or their legally authorized representative's formal consent.

Your information is never sold to a third party under any circumstances. In fact, only the office personnel and caregivers who are directly involved in your service will have access to information related to the care of your loved one.

Give us a call. We'll arrange a time to visit you, your family and/or any authorized representative to fully discuss your particular home care situation and how Right at Home might help.

Together, we'll go over the care your family needs and the care we provide. We'll answer all of your questions regarding in-home care services and costs. Then, we'll begin putting together your custom care plan and matching your loved one with the right caregiver. Usually, care can begin within a matter of a few days.

Unveiled: Ross Vale, January Employee of the Month

At the end of last year we set up our Employee of the Month Award, which recognises team members for their continuous efforts and dedication.

We wanted a special start to the new 2019, and for this reason our prize for the January Employee of the Month was set as high as £250. Of course participation increased and the competition was tough (we almost had a draw in fact).

The winner could only be one though, and this is no other than our Logistics Manager, Ross Vale.

Ross has been part of the Rightio family for almost seven years – his first working day was 6 July 2012, if you’re curious.

As a Logistics Manager, Ross’ responsibilities in the company are various. He works around the clock to ensure jobs are completed smoothly and our customers remain informed through every step in the process. A typical day for him includes coverage, completed & failed jobs, PAYE labour and keeping a high standard of customer service. Additionally, he’s also compiling data on performance and looking on ways to improve performance.

Ross was nominated for January Employee of the Month for his responsibility and professionalism, which were noted both by his team and across the company.

This is what Ross’ colleagues said in their nominations:

“He’s taken responsibility to drive better results in January, while remaining essential for the development of systems and processes.”

“Ross really supported John Fitzgerald in his new role and went above and beyond.”

“He had to deal with a lock job, where the engineer went out and said the lock was too hard to fit. But Ross never gave up and cancelled the job, instead he went on to get pictures of the locks and sent them to our engineers to get the job covered.”

What Ross loves about working at Rightio is the chance to have a positive impact on people’s daily lives and sharing the space with empathetic and like-minded people.

In his free time Ross continues to demonstrate enviable dedication… to his family. He loves his wife and kids, and can’t wait for the warm whether so they can go out and have adventures.

Being the loving dad that he is Ross spent the £250 on some furniture for his little daughter’s bedroom. We bet she was the happiest girl in the world!

Voting is closing on the 28/02/2019 for the February Employee of the month, and although the prize has gone down to the usual £50 Amazon voucher, we wanted to keep things on the edge, by adding an additional MYSTERY gift.

Curious what this can be… you’ll have to read our next blog to know.

Gated Communities Real Estate

Homes in gated communities provide residents an extra level of privacy and security. They also have much less traffic than homes located on public roads. In our experience, the number one reason that people choose to live in a gated community is security. Other benefits can include community pools, tennis courts, marinas, clubs and parks.

Because supply is typically lower for these properties (and demand high), homes in gated communities will have higher values and price points. Our team has a solid track record of matching buyers with the right gated community to fit their needs. From Pinecrest to Miami Beach, there are many great options to choose from.
