I'd like to remind the CS group that we presume innocence of Mr Martin Mount. In fact, the only poster making wild accusations on this board is GermanyBoy (aka Benavides and his pinche Valdez) and his "felony" claptrap. Hardly the first time his desperation has shown, GermanyBoy is the same handle that claimed to be an ace investigator, then took private information from mails sent into Minera IRL by Walter Zaverucha, posted it on this public board and accused him of being a land-trafficker at the same time (without a shred of evidence), all while confusing him with a different poster, "andrewlong". And GermanyBoy still hasn't explained how he got Mr. Z's name and private information. Nice person! Great DD!
Worth pointing out that I also have ample proof that Pedro Valdez illegally spied on my personal WhatsApp activity. Valdez still refuses to say a word about that, but has managed to keep his job at Minera IRL.
So we continue to allow Martin Mount the assumption of innocence, until such time as he enters into conversation and hears the CS side of the story. He is over 18 years old and at that point, he can make his own decisions but if I were Mount, I'd at least want to hear the other side of the story before continuing with this nomination for director. I will, therefore, continue to reach out to him.

Without going into details (in this case, no free info for the liar Benavides), correspondence with shareholders this week has confirmed Rio Tinto (RTZ) is taking our whistleblower submissions seriously. I'd therefore encourage other CS members to use the channels provided by Kiwi Pom in his post (#987 below, this post being a reply to his), this really is a case of the more the merrier. Also, a couple of shareholders have taken up the cause with the company auditors, the UK-based Davidson, including one shareholder with control of many millions of shares (thanks, you know who you are). While feedback is less likely from Davidson, it's to our advantage they know how many eyeballs are watching them (and UK accountancy laws are not something that firm will want to knowingly infringe).
We're now in the period when action is most likely to produce results. Though we're all tired of this company and its entrenched board I'd encourage all shareholders, large or small, to help with the efforts and make their own denouncement of Minera IRL. A shareholder of one share has the same rights as a shareholder of 10m shares and all voices matter.

Thank you Mark for all your effort! I have used the Rio Tinto whistleblower function.
It is very telling that the board cannot deny the claims we CS have put forward. Not even after three months of investigation. As I wrote above, they must be agonizing over how to handle the truth. Also, they cannot produce a timeline for the development of Ollachea. Any other mining company out there which cannot provide a timeline on its own webpage for the development of its flagship asset?

Martin Mount is an old friend of mine and I have something to say about the harassment of him and his family.
Mark Turner announced a few days ago that he approached Martin Mount, and then continued to call and text Martin while also threatening to start proceedings with the UK embassy.
Any stalking, harassment or threats are considered a criminal offence worldwide, and are completely unacceptable irrespective of the purpose of this collective. This seems to be evidence of someone who is unhinged, and who is now targeting people outside the corporate issues discussed in this forum. This needs to stop. I had to make this public before it escalates, and to prevent further harm being caused to third parties that have nothing to do with the accusations or low share values.
Please see below the message from Martin Mount's wife, who was a victim to Mark's attacks just recently. Mark stated yesterday that he visited Martin's place, but he failed to mention that he stood in front of Martin's house screaming his name and terrorizing the entire neighbourhood. Mark has also publicly shared Martin's phone number in an attempt to convince the users of this forum to contact him and extend the harassment. To what end?
Here's the message I am referring. I have erased the sections that point to the personal information of the parties involved:
Here's the translation:
What worries me is that this guy whose name is Mark T has gone to the neighbourhood today and managed to break in when Ivan was at the other end. He was screaming and calling you by your name and didn't want to leave and was also taking photos of the house. Our neighbour told him that she was going to call the Police, but he seemed not to care. Breaking in is an offense and to take photos puts us in danger. I have the camera videos. I've been told he is not so old and very tall, like 1.90 and a foreigner. Is there someone you can talk in the mine to make them aware and see what we can do? Because he has your address and telephone number. I don't know how he got them. Do you have his name or his address so we can file a report? I think he will come back many times; he thinks you're hiding inside.
Mark has also posted images of some of the more civil messages he sent to Martin, but he did not mention that he started screaming over the phone to Martin's wife while she was trying to explain that Martin is out of the country.
This situation is unacceptable and should not be tolerated. To anyone who is close to Mark Turner PLEASE request that this aggressive behaviour stops, his family should be kept away from this mess.

Oh dear - we really are being taken as being fools by the joke of a mining company.
Karl_m - if you really are an old friend of Mr Mount, I pose the following
1. Why did Mr Mount not make these accusations personally?
2. If Mr Mount wants the support of this group, why is he refusing to answer valid concerns posed by members of this group?
3. You are making serious accusations whilst hiding behind the cloak of anonimity - clear this mess up and get Mr Mount to COMMUNICATE with the members of the concerned shareholder group.
From: andrewlong
Following along the lines of comments by poster Kiwi Pom.
Why did you not contact Martin Mount (or did your so called 'friend' contact you to sign up to Silicon Investor and put out some verbiage).
Reference is made to approximate height of Mark T of 1.9 meters which equates to approximately 6.23 feet. I have seen pictures of Mark T and by stature he is not a 'giant' in height, I would say more around 5.6 feet (1.706 m), in my view he is 'short' in stature.
Did his wife contact you?
As a friend of Martin, I would suggest you consider giving him sound advice.
Apparently, when the meeting agenda (annual meeting) was made public Mark contacted Martin Mount, they had a brief conversation as the potential issues that Martin may face if elected as Director. Mark tried to contact Martin a second time, Martin it appears refused to speak to Mark a second time. A normal individual would have spoken to Mark the second time and then could conclude with "Mark, do not contact me anymore until the voting is completed". But in my view I think that someone from the Company (after the first contact) told (or scolded him) for talking to Mark and was advised (told) not to speak to Mark in the future.
If the above paragraph is partially correct then I am asking myself: 'is the proposed nominee of Martin Mount for Director truly 'independent ' '

This is very symptomatic. These people always attack the person Mark and his character but they never ever provide any answers to his or our questions to the company. It is very easy to see that this is their strategy. Silence on factual matters and smearing of the person Mark.

Yes, these posts meet the definition of ad hominem, which always indicated the attacker is on shaky ground.
These types use ad hominem attacks designed to divert your attention -- beware the boogeyman over there! -- while they use the other hand to pick your pocket.

The Rio Tinto whistleblower site is one of the best for ease of supplying info and concerns. You get an email after their each step of there process in review. And it is designed to add new information etc just by logging into your account and go to the bottom (that is slick and convenient), i.e. such as adding why are we asked to vote when Benavides is under investigation.
I have not received at least an acknowledgment email from MIRL Canadian legal counsel, Ethan Minsky to date.
Up until now Benavides and the Board knew of our every move as we suggested them on this board. As Mark has noted/implied it is time to share anything of major importance on quiet side for the moment while we use the 'private reply' button. It would be interesting (to image the reactions of the CEO and the Board) if we all went silent for a week, just on the lighter side thought.

I am happy Martin Mount knows of my existence. I can also confirm I was treated with extreme aggression by "Ivan" (he wouldn't give his name) and pointed out a few home truths to the man. However, "Karl_M" and his report twists several facts and seems to be deliberately exaggerating the events.
1) I arrived and the business address of Martin Mount, which turned out to be one of several houses in a cul-de-sac, behind a iron gate.
2) I entered the gate (it was unlocked) and was approached by Ivan. I asked him if this was the business address of Martin Mount (as for how I got the address, that is simple: in point of fact Martin Mount's business address is publically available information)
3) Ivan denied Martin Mount was there and immediately threatened to call the police. And by that, I mean, in the next breath.
4) I bit my tongue and continued asking Ivan if this was Mr. Mount's address, by showing him Martin Mount's name and address as found in a public available website. In point of fact, his business address and his home address turned out to be the same place. I had discovered that on arrival (and the little garden with a small lawn made it evident).
5) He then admitted it was Martin Mount's address (i.e. he lied to me and then only admitted the truth when I had the information available to contradict him)
6) I then walked some 20m and stood outside Martin Mount's house. Ivan is now right behind me, repeating his threat to call the police
7) I then told him that I would be happy for him to call the police, as I would like to speak to them as well (regarding Ivan's false statements and aggressive behaviour)
8) At all times i stayed on the tarmac road. This is a key point, as people who live in "gated communities" in Lima are under the false impression that just because they put a gate up, the road is theirs. It isn't and I invite them to read their own Constitution.
9) With no way of entering the house to ring the bell (my rights of presence end at the road and I do not invite trouble), I then called out to then house, asking for Mr. Mount and stating that it was in his best interest to talk to either me or a member of the Concerned Shareholder group. If they want to exaggerate that by depicting it as "Screaming and Terrorizing" they can do so. It wasn't. Also, the word "unhinged" is offensive and simply untrue, but suits the way CEO Benavides would like to depict his corporate battle as something personal. It isn't, this has always been and will continue to be issue of serious corporate wrongdoing.
10) A neighbour appeared, also aggressive and immediately taking Ivan at his word while disbelieving anything I said. I remonstrated with the neighbour regarding Ivan's extreme behaviour toward me. It was a pointless distraction from the reasons I was there.
11) The neighbour left, saying something about getting the police. At that point seeing that nothing else would happen, I also left. the whole visit was approximatelyt 10 minutes (as noted yesterday)
12) I did state that to Ivan i would return the next day. In fact I have not and will not, as on reflection it is clearly not a good idea. I can assure one and all that I will not grace their door again unless invited (and even then I'd much prefer to meet in a neutral location). I know when I'm not welcome, folks.
In sum, as part of the continued efforts to reach out to Martin Mount I was lied to and treated aggressively by someone who took it upon himself to act in wholly unnecessary way from the moment I showed at the address. At no point was I aware there was anyone inside Martin Mount's house, there was no reply and no movement as far as I could see from the road. However, even today I still presume his innocence in this matter, despite the way I was treated, and will continue to do so until Mr. Mount makes his position clear. (underlined and bold-typed so that nobody can misunderstand). I'm quite sure that others would be prejudiced against Mr. Mount by now but that is not my position, as stated clearly in written correspondence to Mr. Mount before and after my visit to his business address. You have seen the screenshot of the WhatsApp message, if required you will see the long mail I wrote to him last night, as well. Also, as noted in the Whatsapp message and two short texts I sent to Martin Mount earlier in the week, as well as the long mail I sent to him last night, I made it 100% clear that my only motive was to provide him with information he needs to make an informed decision about joining the MIRL board of directors. Let me be clear: I refute any accusation or even inference that I mean harm to him, his family, his people or even the horrible Ivan. Instead, the purpose was and still is to provide him with the information he needs to make an informed decision (in short, I'm trying to save a fellow Brit from a lot of trouble). If he hears me out, and there was plenty in the overview mail I sent him last night, but then decides to go ahead with his nomination that's his call as an adult. However, he needs to make an informed decision and for that, he needs at least to sound out the CS side of the story.
If I do not receive a reply from Mr. Mount before Monday, if only to acknowledge the mail sent to him last night, I will re-publish the mail as an open letter on the IKN blog (and here). Then others can judge motive, instead of believing the one-sided version placed here today by Karl_M based on a message he received by someone with their own one-sided view of events

Elliot Fletcher, an American transgender actor, is known for his work on the MTV comedy series Faking It. He currently appears in The Fosters in the recurring role of Aaron. In 2016, he featured in the few episodes of TV series Shameless.
Born and raised in Los Angeles, California, by his parents, actors Julia Fletcher and John DeMita, he came out to his parents as transgender in 2013, during his senior year at Immaculate Heart High School.
Fletcher was born on 30 June 1996, in Los Angeles, California. He was raised up in Los Angeles, CA by his parents Julia Fletcher and John DeMita.
He turned as transgender in 2013, amid his senior year of secondary school. Fletcher auditioned for the transgender character, Noah in Faking It, the show's first transgender character, in mid-2016.
Originally he belongs from Los Angeles, CA and his father is an academician and mother is an insurance company. His parents got divorced while he was 8 years old and after that, he was very sad for some years.
In April 2016, it was reported that Fletcher would join the cast of The Fosters in a repeating character as Aaron, an "alluring and charming law understudy" and potential sentimental enthusiasm of Callie. Since then, he's featuring the role of Aaron.

He started his career with minor roles. In early time he was proposed as a guest artist with backstage performance and for this, he also worked in stage with showing his best performance. Elliot was intelligent in his study and was securing good marks in his schooling, in future he is planning to be a business person balancing his acting career side by side.
Fletcher relationship status is not much open, but it is pretty sure, he is not married currently. The name of his affair is not flashed and even he said in an interview as he is not sure whether he will turn his affair as a wife or not. He looks as if he is not having healthy affair and searching some other partner whom he can get married in future.
Because he is not much open to the people is the reason why people are unaware of his personal information. She claimed soon he will flash the name of the lady whom he is in love with but then, he is far for it in current time. Elliot is not gay and neither any question is there regarding it. He loves the animal and his pet dog name is Giggy.

Fletcher is 5 feet 7 inches tall. He is planning to turn himself as pure vegetarian and also he does not drink and smoke for the healthy body. He is a regular visitor to the fitness center for his body fitness.

"America's Wild Horses are fighting their last stand. Competition for our natural resources continues to threaten our wilderness areas and wildlife species. These horses are interwoven into the very fabric of what is America. What threatens them threatens us all. I support the pioneering and innovative efforts of Return to Freedom and I urge you to do the same."
Return to Freedom Wild Horse Sanctuary was chosen as permanent home for Spirit, the Kiger mustang stallion who served as muse for the DreamWorks animated film "Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron"
The Government spends over 60 million dollars of American taxpayers' hard-earned money each year to round up wild horses and remove them from public lands owned by all Americans. Sadly, it's left to people like you who care enough to help the horses. Wild horses can't lobby Congress or speak for themselves. Please join us in caring for them by supporting Return to Freedom.
Carole King, Songwriter
Return to Freedom's pioneering model represents a breakthrough in the humane and effective management of wild horses, allowing them to express the social organization and behaviors common to the species, without fear of uncontrolled reproduction. The problem isn't scientific, it's political and cultural. There is an attitude in the agency to do nothing unless a silver bullet is available.
Dr. Jay Kirkpatrick, Science & Conservation Center
The wild horses that Ms. DeMayo is committed to preserving are indeed our country's own horse and national treasures. I write to you in support of Return to Freedom and urge you to help us in our efforts to preserve wild horses and educate the public about this most significant equine treasure.

A mix-in is a type of dessert made of ice cream and another flavoring such as candy. Mix-in desserts are traditionally sold in an ice cream parlor and are made at the time of ordering. Popular examples of this dessert include Dairy Queen's Blizzard and McDonald's McFlurry.

Product description
A mix-in is a type of dessert made with ice cream and another product that is either blended or folded in.

History
The concept of mixing in additional flavors at the time of ordering was created by Steve Herrell in 1973. Mr. Herrell founded Steve's Ice Cream, near Boston, where they would crush Heath Bars and other candies or confections and mix them into ice cream. Another term for the concept is "smoosh-ins". His system spread across the industry from his store, and became the model for many other ice cream businesses and desserts.

New Nurse: Rachel's Story – Week 7
Posted on December 31, 2019 by Robert Hernandez
New IU Health Methodist Hospital nurse Rachel Ketelaar tackles 12-hour shifts and the PCU.
My first week working three full 12-hour shifts straight. I am going to find out: Will I enjoy having four days off in a row? Or will working three 12-hour days in a row be too mentally and physically exhausting?
Today I worked with a nurse who's been here for many years. She was so thorough in her work! She taught me about the floor's quality improvement projects, including reducing catheter urinary tract infections, central line infections and patient falls, and increasing the use of spirometers to aid in breathing. She also shared a lot of the reasoning behind what we do as nurses, like making sure everything you do gets charted. I appreciated the insights of this veteran nurse.
My first week in the PCU side of my unit, where patients are sicker. Instead of having 4-5 patients to care for, I had three. These patients require more assessments, vital signs checking, dressing changes and typically more medication. The PCU is not as scary as I thought. But on the other hand, with more dressing changes and alarms and equipment, I have a lot more to learn!
I definitely feel I am becoming more independent in my work. Which means my mind is constantly running — thinking about what I could have missed, what I need to do next, and how I can be more efficient in my work. It was much easier to rely on Ty telling me what to do next!
With my preceptor, Ty, who's teaching me the ropes. (She's garbed up to care for a patient in isolation.)
We have some patients on our unit who stay for months and months. Today, Ty and I and another nurse took 3 of these patients outside for 30 minutes. This was a huge task! These patients cannot get out of bed on their own and need lots of help to go outside in wheelchairs, along with monitors and IV poles. It was definitely worth it, though. The fresh air and sunshine were so good for these patients who've been cooped up inside.
What's my verdict on working three days straight? I think I'd prefer to avoid it. By the end of day 2, I was completely wiped and went to bed at 9 p.m. so I could get 9 hours of sleep before my last day. But at least I have lots of time to visit my family in Chicago this weekend. It will be a great break to relax and see my parents and siblings.

Since her diagnosis: She's an encourager, an advocate, and a free spirit
When she learned about an opportunity to meet the pandas in China, Valerie Frazier didn't waste time making a decision. She's like that now that she has been diagnosed with cancer.
By IU Health Senior Journalist T.J. Banes, tfender1@iuhealth.org
In a matter of a few short months Valerie Frazier lost her father and mother and was diagnosed with low-grade non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL).
It showed her exactly what she'd always heard: "Life can change in a minute."
A resident of Martinsville, Frazier married her husband Jeff in 1993. They have two adult daughters and two granddaughters. In January of 2008 after suffering abdominal pain and swollen glands she went to the doctor. A colonoscopy followed and revealed she has NHL. In March her father passed of complications from metastatic adenocarcinoma, and the day after her birthday in August, her mother passed of what Frazier says was a "broken heart."
Her mother had spent time caring for her father and had missed signs of her own poor health.
From 2008-2018 Frazier went through the watchful waiting period that can typically be from 10 to 20 years for patients with NHL. For a slow-growing lymphoma some patients spend time under their doctor's surveillance with additional testing completed to determine the best course of treatment.
"Since they actually traced my symptoms back to my 20s when it was diagnosed as something else, the waiting period was short," said Frazier. Within three years the symptoms became more evident. At the time she was in the care of another hospital and was treated three times with chemotherapy.
When she met IU Health hematologist/oncologist Dr. Jose Azar, Frazier said everything about her diagnosis and treatment changed. It was during a public speaking engagement that she met Dr. Azar and watched him interact with patients in his audience.
"I was anxious to hear what he had to say because he specializes in slow growing lymphoma. After hearing him talk I told him a two-second snippet of my story and he looked into my eyes and said 'we don't know what will happen to you. You shouldn't have been diagnosed in your late 20s because most people are diagnosed in their 60s.'" His honesty with Frazier was exactly what she needed to hear.
"I wasn't looking for guarantees but someone to be honest. We don't know what my future holds. The way he took the time to talk to every person who had a question confirmed everything I had heard about him. He truly treats each patient like an individual," said Frazier.
In July she became Dr. Azar's patient.
"He looked at all my past scans and was ready to put a plan in place. He wanted to know right away – 'is their something we should do differently,''' said Frazier.
It was a welcome relief for her and also a lot to take in.
It was 2008 when she first got her diagnosis. In 2011, a second colonoscopy confirmed her disease had progressed. The following year she had four weeks of antibody therapy. By the end of the treatments she still wasn't feeling much better. In 2013 she started chemotherapy – six treatments once a month.
"This was incredibly hard on my body. I only ended up having 5 – I was unable to take the 6th treatment," said Frazier. "My doctor at the time decided it was doing more harm than good and was satisfied with the progress I had made." In November of 2013 she began to pick up numerous infections. She learned her white blood count continued to drop and she was unable to fight off infections. She began giving herself injections to boost her immune system but still landed in the hospital. A bone marrow biopsy followed to determine why her body wasn't producing white blood cells.
"I had three bags of antibiotics running 24/7 and more Neupogen shots. We made up a superhero called 'Neutropenia Girl' and I even had a cape," said Frazier. Neupogen is a drug used to stimulate the growth of white blood cells. By 2014 she began feeling better and was on a maintenance chemo. She finished her last treatment in August and had an opportunity to travel to China to volunteer caring for pandas.
"I love pandas and when I learned of the opportunity I told my husband, 'I'm not going to wait until one day. That day is now,'" said Frazier. So she traveled more than 7,000 miles and spent two weeks loving on pandas.
"That was a springboard for me. I knew it was now or never and I began to embrace every day, every opportunity," said Frazier. She became a Zumba instructor, hiked the Appalachian Trail, attended a hippie festival, and began counting down marathons – she's participated in 16.
She experienced her first chemo-free year in 2017 and is considered in remission. As a member of the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society advisory board Frazier spends time advocating for other patients – helping them find the resources they need. She is also active with the American Cancer Society Relay for Life Leadership Team and Voices of Hope.
She also speaks out about her own experiences.
"My personal mantra is 'the only thing worse than cancer is regret,'" said Frazier.
"I try to be an example of how you can live with cancer, and I mean truly live," said Frazier. "Do the things you want to do because tomorrow is never guaranteed."
BE FAST to spot a stroke
Recognizing a stroke is the first step toward stopping it.
This fall, the IU Health adult academic health center stroke team expanded their stroke recognition methodology to incorporate dizziness and visual changes in the screening process.
For years, the widely-known acronym, FAST, had been used to recognize that a stroke is occurring. FAST stands for:
F – Facial weakness, such as an uneven smile or weakness on one side
A – Arm weakness, such as the inability to raise both arms evenly
S – Impaired speech, such as slurring or difficulty repeating simple phrases
T – Time is key. Call 911 immediately.
The Adult AHC team has recently embraced the BE FAST methodology to quickly identify early warning signs of a stroke, adding the following:
B – Balance, sudden dizziness, loss of coordination
E – Sudden trouble seeing out of one or both eyes
Sudden onset of dizziness, loss of balance or onset of visual changes can be important signs of a stroke that are often missed by members of the general public and healthcare community. Changing to this acronym will help increase awareness of the varied stroke symptoms and aligns with the national best practices for stroke education.
Couple who lost newborn find peace in helping others
The emotional pain outweighed the physical pain. It was a torment that in some ways would last a lifetime and Rhett and Molly Morehouse are using that memory to help others who have tragically lost their newborns.
The living room is filled with joy. A toddler dressed as Minnie Mouse is singing into a karaoke machine and her two older brothers are taking turns climbing in and out of a cardboard box that has been converted into a fort.
There's little sense that sadness once blanketed this home. That same little girl dressed as Minnie Mouse holds tight to a tiny teddy bear with the name "Ellie" on the front. And on the Christmas tree hangs an ornament with angel wings and the same name, "Ellie."
But there was a time last year – just two months before Christmas – when the mood was bleak as a cold winter night.
Molly Morehouse describes Oct. 31, 2018 as "spending the night in a funeral home." She and her husband Rhett found out the day before that the baby she was carrying had no heart beat. They made the painstaking decision for Molly to be induced and deliver the 20-week-old baby girl they named Ellie. It was Molly's second miscarriage. Her first was when she was about seven weeks pregnant.
"Ellie started off as twins but we found out at our first appointment that the other baby didn't grow much past the first month of conception. We had a 10-week genetic testing with Ellie and everything seemed fine. We don't really know what happened," said Morehouse, 29.
The average risk of miscarriage for a woman under the age of 35 is 15 percent. Approximately 80 percent of miscarriages occur in the first trimester. The rate of miscarriage between 14-20 weeks is less than one percent. By week 20, the miscarriage is considered a stillbirth. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention about 24,000 babies are stillborn each year in the United States.
By that 20th week of her pregnancy, Molly and Rhett Morehouse were full of anticipation of the birth of their fourth child. Their oldest son Liam is six, second son Bence is four and daughter Livie is two.
"Ellie was the first one we were trying for. The others just happened," said Rhett, a worship pastor at Indian Creek Church. Molly is the owner of a children's apparel shop "Made by Molly."
The couple grew up in Lafayette and attended the same high school five years apart. Over time they became friends and eventually began dating. They were married seven years ago.
"We've moved six times but we've had all of our babies at IU Health West," said Molly. "We know everyone and we feel comfortable there." It was at IU Health West, where she delivered Ellie. It was at IU Health West Family Maternity Center where a nurse named Ellie Price comforted them. She gave them her number after they were discharged and they have remained in contact throughout the past year.
There are no words to describe their grief, but the couple has focused on the "little things" that have made a difference in their lives since Ellie's birth.
"I've done a lot of hospital visits ranging from people having surgery to those passing," said Rhett. "The biggest thing you can do is be in the season – there are joyous moments and there are moments to grieve. You can't ignore those moments or brush them off. The thing that was weird for us is we were coming from the other side – having three healthy kids and knowing God is always going to be faithful, but living in a broken world there will always be pain and you have to go through that winter knowing that spring will come."
Through that season, the couple learned that there is no timeline for grief. They also learned about honoring their daughter's death. As they began to encounter other parents who lost their babies, they learned of a way to give those families a special gift of time with their loved one. Through a ministry called, "He Knows Your Name" the couple discovered the "Cuddle Cot" – a cooling method that allows the hospital to keep a baby with the family for a period of time during the mother's stay.
Molly reached out to her 30,000 followers of her business social media account and in one day raised $4,000 to purchase a Cuddle Cot to donate to IU Health West. The cost of the cot was $3,000 and the couple donated $1,000 to another out-of-state family who was raising funds for a Cuddle Cot. The tiny blue box gives grieving families a chance to hold, rock, and sing to their baby and share the newborn with other family members.
"There was a time when the norm was to deliver the baby and go home. There wasn't much time to grieve in the hospital. That is changing," said Molly.
The couple dedicated the cot three months after Ellie was born. As they prepared to go to the hospital dedication on January 4th, Molly took a pregnancy test. They attended the dedication knowing that they were again expecting.
In September they were back at IU Health West where Molly delivered a healthy little girl they named Hallie. Once again their nurse, Ellie Price was with them.
On what would have been Ellie's due date, March 24, the family released balloons with special messages. She will always be part of their lives. Molly keeps a box filled with a tiny handkerchief-size cloth that swaddled the baby, some books, and other keepsakes. She wears a necklace with the names of all five of her children and then there's that ornament on the tree with the name – "Ellie."
"She's our angel and will always be part of us," said Molly. "We understand better the brokenness of others through Ellie," added her husband.
During her sixth week, new IU Health Methodist Hospital nurse Rachel Ketelaar is handed more responsibility caring for patients.
First day of the week and I had some tough patients. I took the tactic of "killing them with kindness" and listened to them even if it was just complaints about their care. I found that a lot of times patients just want some attention or want to be heard and feel like they are cared for. Medically, I'm not sure I did much for some of them, but emotionally, I made sure they felt important.
The nurses on A2N care for 4-5 patients when on the med-surge side of the floor and 3 patients when on the PCU side.
Well, I'm learning that nursing can be a taxing profession on your body. Not only does 12 hours on my feet tire out my legs and back by the end of the day, but lifting and rolling and moving patients in or out of bed can be a lot of work. Nurses are like athletes! The nurses on my unit tell me a pulled back or leg muscle is not uncommon. On the advice of other nurses, I have started wearing compression socks and they really help.
More simulations today. We worked through two scenarios. In the first, the patient and patient's family member were actors. The patient's surgery got pushed back and he was experiencing alcohol withdrawal and hunger from not eating. The patient's brother was concerned about this and getting loud and aggressive with the nurses. In this case, the nurses had to de-escalate the situation, explain the plan of care, and make sure everyone stayed calm and safe. In the other simulation, a mannequin had a heart attack and we had to do CPR, get the crash cart, and call a code on her. After these simulations, we would debrief and discuss how the simulation could have gone better or what we would have done differently. I'm amazed how realistic these simulations are!
I can't believe my sixth week is ending. I feel that so far, my favorite part of being a registered nurse is getting to know the patients. They make the job so worth it. I absolutely love sitting in the patients' rooms and hearing the patients' stories and backgrounds. It really helps me to better understand their situations and become a better nurse.
Being on my feet for 12-hour shifts takes getting used to. I enjoy the little breaks that I find while spending time with patients!
Offering hope, spreading cheer during the holidays
Sometimes it just takes a smile to brighten the holidays. L. Vern Farnum Director of Spiritual Care & Chaplaincy for IU Health talks about the importance of caring for others this time of year.
One family unloads a car filled with toys at IU Health Riley Hospital for Children. Their son once spent Christmas in the hospital. Across campus, in the bone marrow unit of University Hospital, giant stockings are hung and miniature pink Christmas trees are displayed. And at Methodist Hospital, a little elf is busy hanging bright lights in a waiting area.
"I know what it's like to be in the hospital during the holidays. It's good to help others by spreading a little cheer," said Terri Miller, an Ohio resident who received two kidney transplants at IU Health University Hospital – first in November of 2001 and then in November 2017. She recently returned to the hospital to pass out candy canes and stockings to patients and her caregivers – including nurse Christine Gibson, nurse practitioner Lee Ann Jones, nephrologist Dr. Dennis Mishler, and transplant surgeon Dr. William Goggins.
"A smile or a small gift can go a long way during what can be a dark time," said a mom of a Riley patient, who recently delivered toys to the hospital.
Passersby had broad smiles as Case Manager Theresa Osmulski, Rachel Alvey, and Melissa Mahoney with IU School of Medicine laughed about Alvey's festive reindeer ears. The grins were what they hoped for.
The focus of the holidays is about helping patients, caregivers, and loved ones, find ways to celebrate the season – given the reality of the reason they are in the hospital, said L. Vern Farnum, director of spiritual care and chaplaincy. "We encourage patients to find something that gives them peace, joy and a sense of meaning. Often that means celebrating the love of family," said Farnum. With the help of technology, patients who travel from distant states and even other countries are able to connect with their loved ones.
"We had one patient who contracted a mysterious illness and ended up in the hospital on Christmas day. All he wanted to do was see his black lab. We allowed the family to bring the dog in and it was awesome seeing the patient's face light up," said Farnum, who typically works on Christmas Day. "It's rare to hear nurses grumble when they work the holidays. They see this as their calling. Patients are sick and they're here to care for them. More often than not, I see them bring in special treats to share."
There are other touches too that help lift spirits – ornaments hanging from IV poles, framed photos in patients' rooms and mini trees, menorahs and kinaras.
"It's a time when almost all faiths have celebrations that involve light. Each tradition happens in its own way but we encourage that symbolism to be shared," said Farnum. For safety purposes electric or battery candles replace actual flames. "And there's always an abundance of food. In some ways it becomes a time of fellowship for families and caregivers," said Farnum.
As the chaplain team began planning and preparing for the holidays, one offered the following insight: "We need to realize that while this is Hallmark movie season, we should not buy into the Hallmark fantasy. Sometimes it's a sad and imperfect time and we're here to help patients and families get through that in the best possible way we can."
Sixth treatment = A technical knock out
When Carla Laster went into the ring to fight ovarian cancer, she made up her mind it was going to be a Total Knock Out.
She wore a big smile on her face and a pair of pink boxing gloves on her hands. Carla Laster had just finished her last round of chemotherapy for ovarian cancer. And she felt like she'd won the fight.
"My husband said when we started this that the sixth treatment was going to be a technical knock out (TKO) and that's what we made it," said Laster, who works as an assistant coordinator in championships for the NCAA. So for her last treatment she fulfilled the challenge – wearing a pair of boxing gloves when she finished her chemotherapy at IU Health Simon Cancer Center. A TKO is called when a referee counts to 10 over a fallen boxer. The fight is over.
Laster has been married to her husband Robert for 22 years. Their blended family includes seven adult children, and 10 grandchildren.
"That's my thing, that's what I had to fight for. I love my family," said Laster. On June 24 she was admitted to the hospital for surgery to remove a 22-centimeter growth in her pelvis. During surgery cancer was discovered on her left ovary. In addition to removing the mass, and lymph nodes, doctors also removed her appendix that showed signs of discoloration and deformity. She started chemotherapy on August 22. She is under the care of IU Health obstetrics and gynecologist Dr. Sharon Robinson.
"It's odd how things change so quickly. Last year I made chemo care gift bags for patients being treated for breast cancer. This year, when I learned I had ovarian cancer, I made gift bags for Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month," said Laster, 53.
Walking away from IU Health Simon Cancer Center was a relief for Laster and also offered some hope.
"I'm looking forward to spending the holidays with my family," she said. "Before I was diagnosed we booked a cruise for 14 people. I'm ready to go and enjoy every minute."

Third kidney transplant for three patients, One unites five family members
It was the day before Thanksgiving and David Raasch had a lot to be thankful for – he was receiving his third kidney transplant from a family member. It turns out he wasn't alone.
It was a recent weekday when IU Health transplant surgeon Dr. William Goggins was making his rounds at University Hospital. He stopped by the outpatient clinic to see one of his patients David Raasch, 31. During an hours-long surgery, the day before Thanksgiving Raasch received his third kidney transplant under the care of Dr. Goggins.
"Usually third kidney transplants are unusual," said Dr. Goggins. "But in the past five days I've had three patients who have received their third transplant."
Raasch was born to Gary and Kathryn Raasch on May 19, 1988. He was delivered by Cesarean birth at 33 weeks, and arrived one minute after his twin brother, Taylor – at 10:06 a.m. It was the first delivery for Kathryn Raasch. The couple didn't know they were having twins until she was in her sixth month of pregnancy.
Shortly after he arrived, David was whisked off to IU Health Riley Hospital for Children and was diagnosed with bilateral cortical necrosis – a rare cause of acute renal failure. He started peritoneal dialysis at 12 days old. Thirteen surgeries followed and at the age of 17 months, Raasch received his first transplant under the care of Dr. Mark Peskovitz who was tragically killed in a car accident in December of 2010.
David's first donor was his dad and Gary Raasch said he will always remember that date Oct. 11, 1989.
"That day is forever etched in my mind," said Gary Raasch. "His transplant coordinator Mary Lynn Subrin swears he was the youngest and smallest in the state to receive a kidney transplant. She was incredible through this journey."
That transplant lasted 17 years. David's parents and his Danville community kept a close watch over him. He avoided preschool when there was an outbreak of the chicken pox or the flu.
"In elementary school he had fabulous teachers who supported him and it was through them that we identified that David has a hearing impairment," said his mom, who also served as principal of the lower elementary school. Through the Indiana Association of School Principals Kathryn Raasch helped organize school fundraisers for Riley Hospital. David joined the efforts and also participated in the Transplant Olympics as a sixth grader, earning medals in swimming competitions. He later helped with promotions for the National Kidney Foundation and also served as a volunteer for Riley Hospital.
"When the twins were in grade school and they came to the principal's office to find me, I'd hide behind the counter. I wanted them to have a normal elementary experience," said his mom.
The twins were close. They grew up participating in youth leagues. David was restricted from contact sports and became a manager for football, baseball and basketball while his brother ran the field and the court.
"There was no pity party for me," said David. "He had some wonderful coaches and mentors and this was a way for him to be around his peers," said his mom. "And if someone from the outside stuck their nose in where it didn't' belong, Taylor was there," added his dad. Throughout childhood the boys enjoyed fishing trips to Canada and later David served as the best man at Taylor's wedding. Taylor and his wife now live in Baltimore and have two children – one named "Henry David" – after Taylor's twin brother. Through a previous marriage, Gary has an older daughter Laura Davis who is also married with two children.
David's first transplant lasted 17 years. He remained in the care of nephrologist Dr. Asif Sharfuddin. He graduated from Danville High School in December and on Feb. 7, 2007 under the care of Dr. Goggins, he received his second transplant from his mother. After his recovery, David attended Vincennes University to study mortuary science. Since a very young age, when he helped a neighbor plan a sacred burial of a pet hamster, David had an interest in funeral planning. Ron Randolph emerged as a mentor and hired David to work at Weaver & Randolph Funeral Home in Danville. He also works part time at Crown Hill Cemetery.
"I like serving others," said David. "I feel like I'm giving back to the community."
His second kidney remained strong until July 29, 2019 when he went into end stage renal failure and began hemodialysis a month later. As he began preparing for a third donor, both his brother his sister Laura Davis were tested as a match.
David's parents describe the decision of which sibling would be the transplant donor as a sort of "arm wrestling match." Both parents and siblings were eager to become his donor. A recent family photo shows all five of them wearing black t-shirts made by Davis. Green lettering identified donor 1 (his dad) and the date, donor 2 (his mom) and the date and donor 3 (his sister) and the date. David's t-shirt reads: "Kidney thief. I have 5 kidneys but 4 are decoys. His brother's t-shirt reads: "Donor 4 on deck." The back of the t-shirts read: "Keeping it all in the family."
To Davis becoming a living donor was simple. "My brother needed a kidney. In my mind, anyone would do that for a sibling or family member." She remembers clearly David's first two transplants and decided early on that if he ever needed a third she would be tested. In a social media post she wrote: "This has been a whirlwind of emotions however, the real hero in this story is David, being dealt the hand of life he was given, going through now his third kidney transplant, multiple other surgeries, periods of dialysis, daily amounts of medications, daily struggles and never giving up."
As Davis was wheeled into one operating room, David was wheeled into another. He said he felt a calm come over him. "It's like a second home here and I can't say enough about Dr. Goggins, and my post transplant coordinator Mary Taber. They've been fantastic and make me feel safe and calm," said David. And as he came out of surgery, his twin brother was there holding his hand and calling him a "hero."
His entire family – parents, siblings, nieces and nephews waited through the lengthy surgery and offered support.
"It's like God gave us a front row seat in watching a miracle," said his father.
Wyatt is winning a war on abuse
After spending his first Christmas at IU Health Riley Hospital for Children, Wyatt Campbell is giving back to other patients – all in the name of survival.
He's wearing a "Superman" t-shirt and talking non-stop. He is big fan of the Toy Story 4 character "Forky," and he loves McDonald's cheeseburgers with mustard only, and bologna sandwiches.
"He's been on a Toy Story kick since he was two," said his mom Amber Smalley. And that's just fine with her. She's happy to have her son alive. Wyatt Campbell is a child abuse survivor.
"On Dec. 17, 2013 Wyatt was shaken by someone who was supposed to love and nurture him. He was transported by LifeLine to IU Health Riley Hospital for Children where he coded multiple times," said his mother. He suffered bilateral subdural hematomas, retinal hemorrhaging in his eyes and seizures. "We were told Wyatt would most likely not make it through the night. When he beat those odds we were told he would most likely be blind and deaf with very little quality of life," said Amber Smalley. Her mom Carmen Thomas, who works at IU Health Ball Hospital and Thomas' partner Cliff McKee, supported her through the horrific tragedy.
Wyatt has a twin sister Annabelle and that first Christmas, the four-month-olds spent Christmas at Riley Hospital with their mom.
"The generous donations from other families made a very dark time seem somewhat normal," said Smalley, who is married to Adam Smalley and has two more children Charlotte, 3 and Audra, 1.
Every year since Wyatt's recovery, the family has collected toys in celebration of "Wyatt's Survival Day." This year they plan to deliver about $1,000 worth of toys to patients at Riley Hospital.
"At first I hated that day and then I decided that we are blessed that he is alive and is thriving so we decided to celebrate," said Smalley. Wyatt continues with speech and occupational therapy but is an energetic Kindergartener who has become a symbol of strength for his family.
"Wyatt is one of ten grandchildren and he was my first. He was born four minutes before his twin sister Annabelle. I don't know what we'd do without him," said Thomas, who collected toys at IU Health Ball Hospital. "He's such a joy and we feel blessed to celebrate his survival."
Medical assistant's message to her kids: "Don't give up on your goals."

The purpose of writing a research paper can be many as there are several types of research papers that can be created. However, when you are creating a paper for your class, it is better to follow some standard procedures. And always remember, the paper you draft should be informative and legitimate. This how to write research paper guide will help you plan the work and also get it done efficiently.
First, you should start off by doing some serious studying. For this, you need to collect both online and offline materials. Go through some books, periodicals, and articles – visit the local or school library to access them. And when you are reading them keep some paper beside you so that you can take notes of important data.
Not only that, you need also to note down the page numbers, and the chapters from which you are using data as you will need to acknowledge later in your research paper. You will come across people who do it like the old days – they put each source in a separate index card. And there are those who take note directly into a computer. All systems are OK as long as you are taking down the bibliographical information such as author, title, place and date of publication, page, and chapters etc.
Before you start writing, the teacher in many cases wants to take a look at an outline. So you might have to do this. Here you have to decide how you want to plan your research paper – the path you want it to take – the topics you want to cover. You can think of a person, a concept, or an event. Think of all the possible angles. You can either be observant or analytical. But if you ask me, always try to analyze the subject a bit, just to make your paper more interesting. This can be done by considering cause and effect or problem and solution. A good way to approach the issue is by setting up an argument and then coming up with the reasoning. For each section, create a header and a subheader and give a context.
If you have to lift from somewhere, go ahead and do it. That is usually not a problem if you are giving the parent source credit for this. Use parenthetical citation if you're paraphrasing. This style is used in MLA, APA, and other documentation styles. And here are a few sources that can come to your aid – Purdue University's OWL or Online Writing Lab and Dartmouth's Writing Center. Plus there are many more that will offer you vital help and show you how to write a research paper. And keep your patience because writing a research paper may take hours of hard labor.

Section 1. Respect for the Integrity of the Person, Including Freedom from:
Property Restitution
e. Status and Treatment of Internally Displaced Persons:
The Independent Office for Police Conduct investigates whether security force killings were justifiable, and if appropriate, passes cases to the Crown Prosecution Service to pursue prosecution.
There were no reports of disappearances by or on behalf of government authorities.
The law prohibits such practices, but there were a few reports that government officials employed them.
A female convict with a diagnosed borderline personality disorder alleged to the visiting delegation from the Council of Europe's Committee on the Prevention of Torture (CPT) visiting Scotland in October 2019 that she was twice roughly handled during transfers between prisons resulting in bruises on her left upper thigh, on her left elbow, and a black eye in the first instance and injuring her elbow in the second. The CPT investigated uses of force at the Cornton Vale Prison in Scotland, where the woman was incarcerated. Authorities provided more than 200 incident reports covering the period from October 2018 to the day of the visit (i.e., one year). Half of all the incidents involved control and restraint measures and, notably, the use of wrist and thumb-locks. In approximately 25 percent of the incidents when force was used, the female prisoners involved had shown aggression and had first attacked prison staff. In approximately 75 cases, the female prisoners had failed to comply with orders to move cells or get into their cells. In 27 of these control and restraint cases, the refusal to comply with orders had happened after acts of self-harm or suicide attempts.
On February 20, the Subcommittee on Torture of the UN Human Rights Council reported on a visit to the country in September 2019. The report has not been published.
Impunity was not a problem in the security forces. The Independent Office for Police Conduct, Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Constabulary and Fire & Rescue Services, and Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Prisons carried out investigations into complaints of abuses by security forces. The United Kingdom's (UK's) College of Policing incorporates human rights-oriented guidance on policing into its Authorized Professional Practice, the official source of policing practice.
Prison and detention center conditions met international standards but had shortcomings. The government has documented and was investigating these problems.
Physical Conditions: The 2019-20 annual report by Her Majesty's chief inspector of prisons found that 12 of 14 men's prisons in the UK had "poor or less than suitable" levels of safety. It also found that only 40 percent of prisons followed the recommendations laid out by the Prisons and Probation Ombudsman following a death in custody, and that several men's prisons, such as Hewell, and youth institutions, such as Feltham A, were missing documentation recording the use of force, making it difficult to evaluate whether force was used proportionally.
The Ministry of Justice recorded 64,552 incidents of self-harm in UK prisons from March 2019 to March 2020, up 11 percent from the previous 12 months. The chief inspector of prisons found that self-harm had risen in all immigration detention centers.
The CPT delegation that visited England found severe overcrowding (147 percent of capacity) at Doncaster Prison. The CPT also noted that the population of women prisoners was 85 percent higher than what facilities were designed to support, resulting in many women prisoners being held in primarily men's facilities. According to the International Center for Prison Studies, as of August 28, the overall occupancy level in prisons in England and Wales was 104.6 percent. The CPT also recommended a "deep-cleaning and refurbishment" of the Liverpool and Wormwood Scrubs Prisons.
The House of Commons Justice Select Committee conducted an inquiry in July to evaluate the effectiveness of measures put in place in March to guard the prison population from COVID-19. The final report showed that some prisoners detained during the pandemic were kept in conditions akin to "internationally accepted definitions of solitary confinement." Citing the wide variation in the interpretation of COVID-19 prevention measures in prisons across the UK, the committee recommended that the Ministry of Justice set a standard minimum time out of cell and provide additional mental health support to prison populations. During the strictest pandemic lockdown measures from March to July, 23 prisoners and nine prison staff members eventually died after testing positive for the virus.
The CPT's report on its visit to Scotland expressed concern about the use of "long-term segregation" and recommended that "alternatives…should urgently be considered."
The Urgent Notification Protocol allows the chief inspector of prisons to alert the lord chancellor and secretary of state for justice directly if he or she has an urgent and significant concern about the performance of a prison. There were no urgent notifications during the year.
According to the Ministry of Justice, from June 2019 to June 2020, there were 294 deaths in prison custody, a decrease of 5 percent from 309 deaths the previous 12 months. Of these, 76 deaths were self-inflicted, a 13 percent decrease from the 87 self-inflicted deaths in the previous 12 months. Serious prisoner-on-prisoner assaults decreased by 8 percent to 2,782 in the 12 months to March. During the same period, serious assaults on staff decreased by 5 percent to 953.
Offenders younger than age 20 were held in young offender institutions. Security training centers (STCs) are institutions for young persons up to the age of 17. There were three STCs in England and Wales. The Inspectorate of Prisons warned the House of Commons Justice Select Committee it was "unacceptable" that children in young offender institutions were being locked up in excess of 22 hours a day during the COVID-19 pandemic. The CPT report on England stated that between 2016 and 2019, assaults both on staff members and on other young persons at the Feltham A and Cookham Wood Young Offenders Institutions and the Rainsbrook Secure Training Centre had risen by 10 percent at Cookham Wood and by more than 100 percent at Feltham A and at Rainsbrook. It noted "widespread" use of force by guards in all three institutions.
Separate from prisons, there were seven immigration removal centers in England and Wales used solely for the detention of failed asylum seekers and migrants. In May a report by Her Majesty's Chief Inspectorate of Prisons found that four of the eight immigration removal centers had "dramatically reduced their populations" since March because migrants can only be held if there is a reasonable expectation of removal. Given the widespread use of travel bans to stop the spread of COVID-19, this expectation did not exist, allowing detainees to be released until removal proceedings could be resumed. There was no update to this trend at year's end.
The CPT delegation that visited Scotland in October 2019 considered the separation and reintegration unit of the Scottish Cornton Vale Prison was "a totally inappropriate environment for holding vulnerable women prisoners, especially mentally ill and young women, for long periods of time." In Scotland the CPT found that two women in the segregation unit at Cornton Vale Prison (known as "the Dumyat") were locked alone in their cells for 23.5 to 24 hours each day, allowed at most one hour of outside exercise alone and 15 minutes on the telephone every day. They were offered no purposeful activities to structure their days and no mixing with other prisoners.
There were 13 publicly managed and two privately managed prisons in Scotland.
In 2019 there were 37 deaths in custody in Scotland, of which 28 resulted from natural causes and nine resulted from suicide.
According to the annual Northern Ireland prisoner ombudsman report for 2018/19, the latest data available, investigations into eight deaths were carried out. Five of those deaths were suicides, and the other three were due to natural causes.
Administration: Authorities conducted investigations of credible allegations of mistreatment.
Independent Monitoring: In England and Wales, the government permitted monitoring by independent nongovernmental observers. Every prison, immigration removal center, and some short-term holding facilities at airports have an independent monitoring board. Each board's members are independent, and their role is to monitor day-to-day activity in the facility and to ensure proper standards of care and decency. Members have unrestricted access to the facility at any time and can talk to any prisoner or detainee they wish, out of sight and hearing of staff, if necessary.
Scotland operates the Independent Prison Monitoring system. The 2018-19 annual report by the chief inspector of prisons for Scotland, the latest information available, found that "prisoners and staff reported they felt largely safe" and that there were "positive and respectful relationships between staff and prisoners."
On April 30, the CPT published the report of its visit to England in May 2019. On October 8, it published the report of its visit to women's prisons in Scotland in October 2019.
The law prohibits arbitrary arrest and detention and provides for the right of any person to challenge the lawfulness of his or her arrest or detention in court. The government routinely observed these requirements.
Police officers in England and Wales have powers to stop and search anyone if they have "reasonable grounds" to suspect the individual may be in possession of drugs, weapons, stolen property, or any item that could be used to commit a crime.
In Scotland guidelines allow police to stop and search persons only when police have "reasonable grounds," a refinement after criticism that stop-and-search was being used to target specific racial groups. Data published in April revealed 32,107 stop and searches conducted between April and December 2019.
Nationally there is a functioning bail system, but defendants may be denied bail if they are judged to be flight risks, likely to commit another offense, are suspected terrorists, or for other limited circumstances.
If questioned at a police station, all suspects in the UK have the right to legal representation, including counsel provided by the government if they are indigent. Police may not question suspects who request legal advice until a lawyer is present. In Gibraltar the Duty Legal Representative Scheme provides free legal representation to anyone in Gibraltar police custody earning less than 14,000 pounds ($18,480) per year, the minimum wage. All law firms in Gibraltar with five or more lawyers are required to register as part of the scheme.
In Scotland police may detain a suspect for no more than 24 hours. After an initial detention period of 12 hours, a police custody officer may authorize further detention for an additional 12 hours without authorization from the court, if the officer believes it necessary. Only a judge can issue a warrant for arrest if he or she believes there is enough evidence against a suspect. A suspect must be informed immediately of allegations against him or her and be advised promptly of the charges if there is sufficient evidence to proceed. Police may not detain a person more than once for the same offense. Authorities respected this right. Depending on the nature of the crime, a suspect should be released from custody if he or she is deemed not to present a risk. There is a functioning bail system.
In Bermuda a court must issue a warrant for an arrest to proceed. The law permits arrests without warrant only in certain conditions. When a police officer has reasonable grounds for suspecting that any offense that is not an arrestable offense has been or is being committed or attempted, they may arrest the relevant person if it appears that service of a summons is impracticable. No arrests or detentions may be made arbitrarily or secretly, and the detainee must be told the reason for his or her arrest immediately. Individuals may be detained initially for six hours, and for two further periods of up to nine hours each subject to review and justification. Authorities respected this right.
There is a functioning system of bail in Bermuda. House arrest and wearing an electronic monitoring device may be a condition of bail. A detainee has an immediate right of access to a lawyer, either through a personal meeting or by telephone. Free legal advice is provided for detainees. Police must inform the arrestee of his or her rights to communication with a friend, family member, or other person identified by the detainee. The police superintendent may authorize incommunicado detention for serious crimes such as terrorism.
Pretrial Detention: On September 26, temporary legislation came into effect extending the maximum length of pretrial detention from 182 to 238 days to address delays in jury trials due to COVID-19.
The law provides for an independent judiciary, and the government respected judicial independence and impartiality.
The law provides for the right to a fair and public trial, and an independent judiciary routinely enforced this right. Defendants enjoy a presumption of innocence, and the right to be informed promptly and in detail of the charges. Criminal proceedings must be held without undue delay and be open to the public except for cases in juvenile court or those involving public decency or security. Under the Official Secrets Act, the judge may order the court closed, but sentencing must be public. Defendants have the right to be present at their trial.
Defendants have the right to communicate with an attorney of their choice or to have one provided at public expense if unable to pay. Defendants and their lawyers have adequate time and facilities to prepare a defense and free assistance of an interpreter if necessary, from the moment charged through all appeals. Defendants have the right to confront witnesses against them, to present their own witnesses and evidence, and not to be compelled to testify or to confess guilt. Defendants have the right to appeal adverse verdicts.
There were no reports of political prisoners or detainees.
Nationally, individuals, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), and groups of individuals may seek civil remedies for human rights violations and have the right to appeal to the European Court of Human Rights decisions involving alleged violations by the government of the European Convention on Human Rights.
In Bermuda the Human Rights Tribunal adjudicates complaints.
The UK complies with the goals of the 2009 Terezin Declaration and 2010 Guidelines and Best Practices. The government has laws and mechanisms in place, and NGOs and advocacy groups reported that the government made significant progress on resolution of Holocaust-era claims, including for foreign citizens.
The Department of State's Justice for Uncompensated Survivors Today (JUST) Act report to Congress, which covers Holocaust-era restitution and related issues, was released publicly on July 29, 2020. The report is available on the Department's website: https://www.state.gov/reports/just-act-report-to-congress/.
The law prohibits such actions, and there were no reports that the government failed to respect these prohibitions.
The law provides for freedom of expression, including for the press, and the government routinely respected these rights. An independent press, an effective judiciary, and a functioning democratic political system combined to promote freedom of expression, including for the press.
Freedom of Speech: The law prohibits expressions of hatred toward persons because of their color, race, nationality (including citizenship), ethnic or national origin, religion, or sexual orientation as well as any communication that is deemed threatening or abusive and is intended to harass, alarm, or distress a person. The penalties for such expressions include fines, imprisonment, or both.
Freedom of Press and Media, Including Online Media: The law's restrictions on expressions of hatred apply to the print and broadcast media. In Bermuda the law prohibits publishing written words that are threatening, abusive, or insulting, but only on racial grounds; on other grounds, including sexual orientation, the law prohibits only discriminatory "notices, signs, symbols, emblems, or other representations."
In September the Council of Europe issued a "Level 2 Media Freedom Alert" to the UK after Ministry of Defence press officers refused to engage with Declassified UK, an investigative media outlet. The secretary of state for defence issued an apology to lawyers for Declassified UK and said he would open an investigation into the incident.
Violence and Harassment: During Black Lives Matter protests in London in June, two Australian and one British journalist, were violently attacked. The National Union of Journalists called for the arrest of the perpetrators, which had not taken place at year's end.
In July charges were brought against a suspect for the killing of freelance reporter Lyra McKee in April 2019 in Londonderry, Northern Ireland.
Libel/Slander Laws: On February 12, the governor of the British Virgin Islands signed into law a bill that criminalizes with imprisonment for up to 14 years and a fine "sending offensive messages through a computer." The law applies to a message that is "grossly offensive or has menacing character" or that is sent "for the purpose of causing annoyance or inconvenience." The provision carries penalties up to 14 years in prison and a fine. Media freedom NGOs strongly criticized the law.
The government did not restrict or disrupt access to the internet or censor online content, and there were no credible reports that the government monitored private online communications without appropriate legal authority. The country has no blanket laws covering internet blocking, but the courts have issued blocking injunctions against various categories of content such as depictions of child sexual abuse, promotion of violent extremism and terrorism, and materials infringing on copyrights.
By law the electronic surveillance powers of the country's intelligence community and police allow them, among other things, to check internet communications records as part of an investigation without a warrant.
There were no government restrictions on academic freedom or cultural events. Under emergency COVID-19 legislation, participation in cultural events was severely restricted.
In March the UK's cultural scene, including restaurants, museums, galleries, cinemas, and sporting events, was closed down because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Outdoor music events were allowed from July, but indoor musical events remained restricted at year's end. The government provided a support package of 1.57 billion pounds ($2.07 billion) for arts groups and venues. From March through the end of the year, the government imposed restrictions on the number of persons from separate households who could gather socially indoors and outdoors, including with regard to protest.
The law provides for the freedoms of peaceful assembly and association, and the government routinely respected these rights. Under emergency COVID-19 legislation, the government banned mass gatherings.
Except for areas affected by COVID-19 laws and guidelines, the law generally provides for freedom of internal movement, foreign travel, emigration, and repatriation, and the government routinely respected these rights.
In March, Prime Minister Boris Johnson introduced extraordinary measures, including curbs on the freedom of movement, to slow the spread of COVID-19 in England. These measures continued in force in some form at year's end. From March 24 through May 13, the government instructed individuals they were only allowed out of their homes to purchase essential items.
COVID-19 legislation empowers police to enforce the evolving government guidelines. Police officers could issue fixed penalty notices (FPNs) to those they suspected of acting contrary to government guidelines on social interaction. FPNs allowed the accused to pay a fine rather than face prosecution for the offense.
On May 13, the prime minister announced changes that allowed those in England to leave their homes for outdoor recreation. The governments of Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland also began easing their lockdown restrictions in May. From May through year's end, COVID-19 guidelines in all four nations of the UK were frequently relaxed or tightened to account for shifting trends in the spread of COVID-19 as well as public pressure to reopen schools and businesses. The prime minister announced that from July 4, lockdown laws in England would no longer provide legal restrictions associated with the government's social distancing guidance. The other three nations made similar changes to their laws in July. Laws across the UK mandate some restrictive rules on social gatherings. As the spread of COVID-19 began to slow, the government took steps in July and August to loosen restrictions, allowing individuals to have small gatherings, return to the office and schools, and reopen retail businesses, restaurants, and pubs. The UK government passed laws in September that imposed additional restrictions called "local lockdowns" in areas where the virus was most prevalent. From November 5 until December 2, the prime minister imposed a lockdown across England to slow the spread of the virus.
In-country Movement: The home secretary may impose terrorism prevention and investigation measures (TPIMs) based on a "balance of probabilities." TPIMs are a form of house arrest applied for up to two years to those thought to pose a terrorist threat but who cannot be prosecuted or deported. The 14 measures include electronic tagging, reporting regularly to the police, and facing "tightly defined exclusion from particular places and the prevention of travel overseas." A suspect must live at home and stay there overnight, possibly for up to 10 hours daily. Authorities may send suspects to live up to 200 miles from their normal residence. The suspect may apply to the courts to stay elsewhere. The suspect may use a mobile phone and the internet to work and study, subject to conditions.
Exile: The law permits the home secretary to impose "temporary exclusion orders" (TEOs) on returning UK citizens or legal residents if the home secretary reasonably suspects the individual in question is or was involved in terrorism-related activity and considers the exclusion necessary to protect people in the UK from a risk of terrorism. TEOs impose certain obligations on the repatriates, such as periodic reporting to police. The measure requires a court order and is subject to judicial oversight and appeal.
In May a UK high court issued a preliminary ruling that the restrictions imposed on individuals under TEOs must be in accordance with the provision of the European Convention on Human Rights providing for a fair trial. The ruling allows those under TEOs to know the evidence against them and to contest the terms of their obligations.
Citizenship: The law allows the home secretary to deprive an individual of citizenship if officials are satisfied this is "conducive to the public good," but not if this renders a citizen stateless.
In 2019 the home secretary started the process of revoking the citizenship of Shamima Begum, a 20-year-old British citizen by birth of Bangladeshi extraction who left the UK to join ISIS. Because Begum was British by birth, the home secretary could only cancel her British citizenship if she were a dual national. The home secretary asserted that Begum held dual citizenship with Bangladesh. Begum's lawyers disputed that she had Bangladeshi citizenship. In August the Court of Appeal of England and Wales ruled that Begum should be allowed to return to the UK to have a fair and effective appeal against being stripped of her British citizenship. In November the Supreme Court held hearings on the home office's appeal.
The government cooperated with the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and other humanitarian organizations in providing protection and assistance to refugees, asylum seekers, stateless persons, or other persons of concern.
During the year the UK government consolidated its various refugee resettlement programs into a single "global scheme" aimed at providing more consistency in the way that refugees are resettled and to broaden the geographical focus beyond the Middle East and North Africa. UNHCR welcomed the shift.
Abuse of Migrants, Refugees, and Stateless Persons: Home Office officials have the power to detain asylum seekers and unauthorized migrants who do not enter the asylum system. There was no maximum time limit for the use of detention. Immigration detention was used to establish a person's identity or basis of claim, to remove a person from the country, or to avoid a person's noncompliance with any conditions attached to a grant of temporary admission or release.
On September 20, Glasgow's six members of Parliament (MPs) signed a joint letter calling for a fatal accident inquiry into the deaths of three asylum seekers housed in the city during the year. Adnan Walid Elbi, Mercy Baguma, and Badreddin Abedlla Adam died in separate incidents. The causes of Elbi's and Baguma's deaths were not determined, although the NGO Positive Action in Housing stated they were living in "extreme poverty." In June police officers shot and killed Adam after he stabbed six persons at a hotel temporarily housing asylum seekers. Scotland's Police Investigations and Review Commissioner launched an investigation into the police shooting, but had not published the results at year's end. Media reports and NGOs suggested the government contractor providing services to Adam and other asylum seekers at the location of the attack may have been negligent in the provision of health services.
Access to Asylum: In England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland, the law provides for granting asylum or refugee status, and the government has established a system for providing protection to refugees. Asylum is a matter reserved for the UK government and is handled centrally by the Home Office. Bermuda's constitution and laws do not provide for granting asylum or refugee status, and the government does not have an established system for providing protection to refugees.
NGOs criticized the government's handling of asylum seekers crossing the English Channel from France. By October an estimated 7,000 persons had crossed the channel in more than 500 boats. Media reported that many of these asylum seekers were being held in detention centers.
Safe Country of Origin/Transit: Until the end of the year, the country was subject to the EU's Dublin III regulation and considered all other EU member states to be countries of safe origin or transit. The regulation permits authorities to remove an asylum applicant to another country responsible for adjudicating an applicant's claim. The government placed the burden of proof on asylum seekers who arrived from safe countries of origin, who passed through a country where they were not considered to be at risk, or who remained in the country for at least five consecutive months before seeking asylum.
For the duration of their asylum application, asylum seekers are eligible for government support at 30 percent below the normal rate for their family size, an amount that NGOs continued to deem inadequate. NGOs continued to criticize the government for cutting off benefits 28 days after a person is granted refugee status, which they say left some destitute.
Employment: Refugees are eligible to work or to receive state benefits if unable to work. In Scotland the devolved government funded the Refugee Doctors' Program to help refugees to work for the National Health Service Scotland. The program offers doctors advanced English lessons, medical classes, and placements with general practitioners or hospitals, providing them with the skills needed to get their UK medical registration approved.
Temporary Protection: The government may provide temporary protection to individuals who may not qualify as refugees. In the year ending in March, the government granted humanitarian protection to 1,482 individuals (up 24 percent from 2019), 1,026 grants of alternative forms of leave (down 18 percent), and 4,968 grants of protection through resettlement schemes.
The government provides a route to legal residence for up to five years for stateless persons resident in the country. After the initial five-year period, stateless persons are able to apply for "settled status" or further extension of their residency. The government did not publish data on the number of habitual residents who are legally stateless.
A wide variety of domestic and international human rights groups operated without government restriction, investigating and publishing their findings of human rights cases. Government officials were routinely cooperative and responsive to their views.
Government Human Rights Bodies: Parliament has a Joint Committee on Human Rights composed of 12 members selected from the House of Lords and the House of Commons. The committee investigates human rights matters in the country and scrutinizes legislation affecting human rights. It may call for testimony from government officials, who routinely comply.
The Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) is an independent, nondepartmental public body that promotes and monitors human rights and protects, enforces, and promotes equality across nine "protected" grounds: age, disability, gender, race, religion and belief, pregnancy and maternity, marriage and civil partnership, sexual orientation, and gender reassignment. The sponsoring department is the Government Equalities Office. The commission was considered effective.
The Scottish Human Rights Commission, which is accountable to the Scottish Parliament, monitors and protects human rights in the region.
The Northern Ireland Human Rights Commission, sponsored by the Northern Ireland Office, and the Equality Commission for Northern Ireland, sponsored by the Office of the First Minister and Deputy First Minister, monitored human rights in that province. These entities were considered effective.
In Bermuda the Human Rights Commission is an independent body that effectively administered human rights law through the investigation and resolution of complaints lodged with it.

Grubhub's Grant Program Supports Drivers' Community Philanthropic, Business and Educational Goals
Download this Press Release ()
Grubhub is proud to announce its Driver Grant Program to support drivers who are creating meaningful change in their communities. Twenty recipients will receive $10,000 grants that can be used to inspire change in their communities through education, civic engagement, and philanthropic work.
Through the grant program, Grubhub is honoring drivers' aspirations and supporting the work they do off the road. We hear that our drivers value the autonomy that comes from Grubhub since it allows them to participate in other endeavors, and this program is one way we are able to celebrate and invest in their passions. The program will continue into 2021, with a second grant application period planned to open in the spring.
"Our drivers play a valuable role to serve restaurants and diners across the country, and we're proud that our grant program is a way to further their personal and professional development and help them drive more change in their communities," said Eric Ferguson, Grubhub's chief operations officer. "Knowing that the majority of our drivers deliver for Grubhub part-time to fit into their chosen goals, these grants will give drivers a stepping stone to pursue their broader aspirations, benefitting not only them, but the greater good of their community."
To be considered for a grant, applicants create a short video or write an essay that outlines how they've made a positive impact in their community, how driving with Grubhub fits into their larger mission, and how they'd use the grant to pursue their goals. The application period opens starting December 1 and closes on January 4. Recipients will receive the grant in the first quarter of 2021. Eligible applicants must be active on the Grubhub for Drivers platform for at least 90 days at the time of submission, be in good standing at the time the grant is awarded, and have completed at least one delivery in the last 30 days prior to being selected.
More information on eligibility and how to apply can be found here.
