I could use some help selecting my first shotgun.
So I've been looking at some shotguns recently. At first I thought I would go with the Mossberg 500:
46284 - 12 Gauge Mossberg 500 Special Purpose Persuader Pump Action Shotgun 20" Barrel 9 Rounds Heat Shield Synthetic Stock Matte Blued Finish
But I heard some of you guys talking about Remington's shotguns so I checked this one out:
62447 - 12 Gauge Remington Model 887 Nitro Mag Tactical Pump-Action Shotgun 18-1/2" Barrel 3-1/2" Chamber 2-Shot Magazine Extension Synthetic Stock
They both have things that I'm looking for (matte blue finish, heat shield, high capacity tube) I'm just not sure.:(
I think I'm leaning towards the Moss. but the Remington looks so cool and already has Picatinny rails (I'm putting a light, vertical fore grip and red dot sight on it... I think) And yes I know it shouldn't matter how cool it looks as long as it does its job.
Let me know what you guys think.
Can't go wrong with either a Remmington or Mossberg. There is a reason why the military and police departments use both these makes of guns. Both very, very reliable.....so really you are back to how it looks. :D
Flip a coin.
2 Attachment(s)
Better yet, why not get one of each. :D
Converted Mossberg 500 turkey gun on top:
Attachment 18162
Remington 870 HD gun on the bottom:
Attachment 18163
Both function flawlessly.
I wish I could afford both; one for the wife and one for me. Unfortunately, we are poor a$$ college kids.
I forgot to ask, what is the actual shot capacity on the rem? The only thing I could find is it has a "2 shot extension tube." I assumed it was 8 but I'm not sure.
I'll need to make a trip to Cabela's to handle both and see how they feel to make the final decision.
The Remington 870 with the factory +2 extension is 6+1 for a total of 7 shots. The Mossberg 500 is 5 +1 for a total of 6 shots. The Mossbergs are not modular and are a big pain in the ass if you want to add more capacity.
This is my favoiret department when someone ask a question like this.
Remington 870s are a good gun. The only major problem is with their matte finish and blued finish. These will get rust on them so you need to be carefull with finger prints. Allthough any gun will get rust without proper care.
The Mossberg 500 is also a good gun. These are a very tough shotgun. Your 500's have plastic parts but I rarely hear people complain about them.
As for them both carrying total ammount of ammo it really does not make a difference. Mossbergs go from 6 to 9 shell compacity and I think remington is the same on that if im not mistaking.
One other thing that will be good to do is to try and shoot each one and see how it feels to you.
Other than that just flip a coin.:)

February 25th, 2011
I hit the side of my head (temple) on cement but there is no bump. No major symptoms the next day, but do have swelling and alot of bruising below the eye around cheek bone. Not sure if the bleeding down lower is from gravity. The temple is extremely sensitive to touch. If I barely touch my skin it hurts, however when I try to manipulate the bone to see if there is any cracks or bumps, it does not hurt.
What I mean is that when I touch the area with a more firm touch it does not hurt, but when I barely touch it, then it hurts. I have mild achy headaches and kind of a numbing sensation in the general temple area. The temple area looks slightly different then the other side of my head, but no bump is present.
It's been five days since accident, should I still consider an xray?

How do you react?
The other day someone asked what we were afraid of. Most of the answers were snakes, bugs, etc.
I don't like spiders. At all. Daddy Long Legs are allowed to hang out up in the corners because they eat so many bugs, but once they start exploring away from corners, it's time to be relocated. Other that that, spiders are a big no no around me and if I see them I immediately call for Ed and try to get the words out... usually it sounds like "rightthere!getitblechgrossssss!!"
Snakes creep me out. But living out in the country they are vital. Bull snakes eat rattle snakes, gophers and other pests. So as much as I don't like them, they are a big part of keeping this place safe.
Today I was on the 4 wheeler with Charlie taking the mower out to the front to finally start hacking it down. Grass was already taller than the mower, I couldn't believe it! Anyway, as I'm going up to the front pasture, this dang snake crosses in front of me. It was just a garter, but still. I'm working on not being too scared of things because I don't want Charlie having irrational fears like I do.
So my breath caught in my throat and I cursed a bit under my breath and my toes got scared like they always do (I think maybe that's a fight or flight thing).
Now, when Charlie is not with me , my arms flight up in the air, my feet get scared and I let out a weird yell/holler/NONONONO noise. I'm sure it's quite entertaining to everyone around me.
How do you react when you see those things that freak you out?
I usually get mad, weird right?

Caveolae and membrane trafficking in vascular permeability
Group Leader page
Caveolae are small flask-shaped invaginations of the plasma membrane. They are only found in vertebrates, and are very abundant at the surface of endothelial cells and adipocytes. Major goals of our research include to determine the molecular mechanisms that generate caveolae, and to better understand their physiological roles.
There is a substantial literature linking caveolae to the regulation of endothelial permeability, the regulated transport of macromolecules across endothelial cells being central to the correct functioning of our closed, pressurised vascular system. Despite the physiological and medical importance of this process, most underlying molecular and cell biological details remain obscure.
This PhD project aims to determine the role of caveolae in trans-endothelial transport of macromolecules. Extensive use of mouse and tissue culture models will allow development of imaging and more quantitative assays for this transport, and we have already developed appropriate knockout mice lacking key caveolar genes. The primary vascular system that will be studied, at least initially, is that of the brain. This is attractive experimentally, as endothelial cells of the blood brain barrier are highly impermeable to passive / diffusive passage of macromolecules, and provides a highly medically relevant system. The project will provide training in conventional molecular biology and biochemical approaches, as well as more specialised techniques including gene editing using CRISPR, 2-photon imaging, and in vivo assays using mice.

Page 87 - Ill fares the land, to hastening ills a prey, Where wealth accumulates, and men decay: Princes and lords may flourish, or may fade; A breath can make them, as a breath has made: But a bold peasantry, their country's pride, When once destroyed, can never be supplied.
Page 163 - After gazing fixedly upon expression and substance The mind returns with a spiritual image, As when seeking the outlines of waves, As when painting the glory of spring. The changing shapes of wind-swept clouds, The energies of flowers and plants, The rolling breakers of ocean, The crags and cliffs of mountains, All these are like mighty TAO, Skilfully woven into earthly surroundings. . . . To obtain likeness without form, Is not that to possess the man ?
Page 116 - My dungeon is lighted by the will-o'-the-wisp alone ; no breath of spring cheers the murky solitude in which I dwell. The ox and the barb herd together in one stall, the rooster and the phoenix feed together from one dish. Exposed to mist and dew, I had many times thought to die ; and yet, through the seasons of two revolving years, disease hovered round me in vain. The dank, unhealthy soil to me became paradise itself. For there was that within me which misfortune could not steal away. And so...
Page 4 - If the Chinese people were to file one by one past a given point the procession would never come to an end. Before the last man of those living to-day had gone by another generation would have grown up. "SAY it with handkerchiefs," advertises a merchant in Goshen, Ind.
Page 161 - Expenditure offeree leads to outward decay, Spiritual existence means inward fulness. Let us revert to Nothing and enter the Absolute, Hoarding up strength for Energy.

Wolf and Me part 3- revised
Wolf and I had been together for three year now. Our Love for each other has grown more and more over the years. I didn't think it could ever get any better but it did. I just loved him so much and just wanted to be his and become like him in every and anyway possible.
As you know Wolf is part werewolf and can change to a partial werewolf at will.
His side burns get longer, ears become pointed and his chest a bit more hairy, his teeth develop into canine incisor fangs. He got more muscular and his cock thickened out and grew about an inch or two longer. He was extremely sexy in both his forms, both human and wolf and I loved him.
He had become a werewolf many years ago when a full werewolf elderly man who was on his last legs accidentally scratched him. Thus he transformed into a werewolf as well. But not all the way. It seemed that magic was becoming less in the world and so he only became part werewolf. The old man was sorry but in he was old and couldn't control himself. He had a bag full of precious gems and gold and he gave it to Wolf to make up for what he had done to him. Then the old man expired and turned to dust and his remains blew away in the wind.
Wolf was set for life but at what cost. He built a beautiful house on the side of a hill. He had bought several thousand acres of land, woodlands and also a small lake and stream. But he was lonely. He was afraid if people found out they would hunt him down and kill him.
Then three years ago I happened to come along and became part of his life, when I had gone for a drive in the country. We met and we hit it off together almost immediately. I found him so attractive.
He told me of what had happened to him, but after due consideration, I found that it did not matter; I could and did accept him for what he was. After all he was extremely handsome and loving and everything that I desired in a man. I gave up my former life and settled in with him as his new mate.
We just made each other so happy and content.
I loved pleasing him anyway that he wanted. Just to be with him made me incredibly happy. It is so hard to describe how much I loved him and he loved me.
One day into our third year as we were outside doing the chores, I approached him and asked of him, "Wolf my one true Love," I said in a trembling voice. "I want to become more for you. I want to become like you. Can you try scratching me in Wolf form and see if I too can become a partial werewolf like you? I would so desire to be as you are. It would make us so much closer."
Wolf got a concerned look on his face and in a steady voice answered me, "Darian, have you thought this through? Do you know what you are asking? If I change you it will be permanent, there is no going back. You will be like this forever. Werewolves live an extremely long time, sometimes for hundreds of years. Do you really want that?"
"Oh yes, Wolf." I blurted out in a passionate voice, "There is nothing I desire more than to live for an eternity with you. I want to be more completely yours in every way possible. You are my one true love and my role model. If I can by any chance be even half as good as you I would willingly do anything to be so." I love you with all my heart. Please, if you love me as you say you do, you will grant me this one wish. To be yours for eternity."
Wolf took me in his arms and looked adoringly down into my eyes. My eyes were brimming with tears I was so earnest. He reached up with his masculine hand and gently wiped them away.
In a tender loving voice he said, "If you truly wish this my little Fox, (That was his nick name for me) then I can do nothing but agree to your request. You will become as I am and together we will live through eternity. I truly Love you with all my heart and am so grateful to have a mate like you. You are my everything."
Wolf wrapped his arm around me and led me into the house, over to the couch and sat me down.
He cradled my face gently with his wonderful masculine hands and looked me directly into the eyes. His own eyes were sparking with the love he felt for me. My heart was beating very fast. And I was shaking a bit in his hands. But this really was what I wanted.
Wolf spoke out in his strong baritone voice, "L'll fox, why don't we make this more personable. How about I fuck you as I change you? Hold my hard cock deep inside your ass as you metamorphous?"
Oh God, Would he really do that for me? No wonder I loved him so much. He was my everything and he wanted always to please me.
"Wolf, I would do anything for you. You are my one true love. Let me strip off these clothes and let me mount you. Please hold me."
I stripped off my clothes and stood before my love. Wolf sat on the couch with his hard cock fully erect and straight up in the air. He changed to his Wolf aspect and I felt my blood rushing to my head. I was high just from the thought of completely joining with my Mate. I went towards Wolf and crouched over his body. He placed his hands on my hips and slowly eased me onto his hard member. When he had fully penetrated me, I let out a moan of pure pleasure. I was where I belonged where I wanted to be.
Wolf couldn't resist, he started thrusting upward with his hard Wolf cock. He was like a mad man as he fucked deep into my ass. He started to pant and moan out in pleasure. I was crying tears of joy. He was going to make me his, totally and completely. Then I felt Wolf starting to shoot his load into my ass.
Wolf moaned out in his wonderful sexy voice, "OK my little fox. Are you ready? This will hurt a bit, but the healing process is almost instantaneous. You will immediately feel the change coming over you."
"I have never been more ready in my life." I eagerly replied to him. "Please make me as you are."
I presented my arm for Wolf to scratch. With a claw extended he placed it against my arm and then with one quick movement he scraped it across my forearm.
There was a momentary blast of pain, but almost immediately it subsided. Wolf wrapped his arms around me in a tight hug; Wolf was looking down into my face with concern. I tightened my ass cheeks around Wolf's cock. Then I felt a strange sensation flowing throughout my entire body. I trembled a bit. Then I felt a change coming over me. I could feel my body filling out. The scratch slowly faded before my eyes.
I looked down at myself, a thin line of hair appeared in the center of my chest and abs flowing from between my nipples down to my pubic hairs. My arms and legs and torso had become more muscular than it was before. I could feel immense power flowing throughout my body. I had never felt so alive, so real. I lifted myself off of Wolf and went over to look in the mirror that was on the wall. My mouth dropped open at the change I saw in me. My ears had become pointed; my eyebrows and sideburns had become bushier.
I opened my mouth and I had canine incisor teeth. And then I looked down at my crotch. My cock was as hard as a rock. I used to have only an eight inch cock, but now it had lengthened to Nine and a half inches and it was thicker too. I held my arm up and flexed my new muscles. God they were stupendous.
I had transformed into as much of a stud as Wolf was. I tilted back my head and let out a loud whoop of sheer joy.
Then I turned and ran over to Wolf. He was standing now and I threw myself into his arms and hugged him so tightly. He returned the hug. I buried my face into his chest and tears of pure joy flowed out of my eyes as I held my stud. I was so happy.
I could feel Wolf's tears dripping down onto my head as he wept with me. I could feel the energy flowing between our two bodies.
Wolf released me for a moment and then ripped off his shirt and jeans. Then standing before me completely nude he transformed back into his wolf form.
He stepped forward again into my embrace and we hugged each other passionately. We had become one and alike. I cannot explain how much happiness and joy I had for my mate.
I was in heaven and in utter bliss.
But then I felt a bit weak, the strain of the transformation had taken its toll on me. I needed to rest.
Wolf sensing what was happening to me gathered me in his arms and with his magnificent strength carried me to our bedroom. He lay me down on the bed and told me compassionately to rest awhile and let my new form take hold and settle down. He would wake me in a few hours and make me a hearty lunch so that I could regain my strength.
Wolf placed a blanket around me and quietly left the room. I didn't think I could sleep or rest but I really had been drained by the episode. I fell into a deep slumber.
About three hours later I suddenly awoke. I sat straight up in the bed. Had I been dreaming? I pulled the blanket off me and I looked down at body. It was normal human beings body. No extra hair, no extra muscle mass. Was it a dream? Then I thought to myself, how was it that Wolf said he changed? Oh yes, he thought Wolf Wolf and he transformed.
I gathered up my courage and then taking a deep breath focused my attention and thought Wolf Wolf.
I immediately felt the change coming over me. My body changed to my wolf form. I felt so alive, invigorated. There was such power flowing through me. I felt unbelievable.
I sprang out of the bed and ran from the bedroom to the kitchen. Wolf was standing at the table. I leapt into his arms and hugged him with so much compassion.
Wolf laughed at my joyfulness and cried out,"Ah, my handsome little studling. You are so beautiful and you are mine, totally and completely. To cherish for eternity."
"Oh Wolf, God I love you so much. I let my love flow out of me into his masculine body.
I was so excited; I was starting my new life.
Wolf held me at arm's length and examined my body. Then he said in an adoring sexy voice, "Darian my little fox. You look magnificent. A stunning example of a beautiful man."
I couldn't resist. I dropped to my knees still in wolf form and opened Wolfs pants. Out popped his semi hard cock. I breathed in his aroma and gently stuck out my tongue, somehow it too had changed, it had become longer than before. I lapped at Wolfs cock. He started to grow hard as he let out a low delighted moan. Then I engulfed his entire length sucking as hard as I could. His cock began to vibrate. Then he placed his hands behind my head and started to fuck my face. He pulled me off to the tip and then slammed back in. His huge cum filled balls slapped against my chin with a loud smacking noise.
As he fucked my face I tilted my head back and looked up at him. He smiled a rapturous grin down at me, and then he started to change. He became Wolf. His cock grew bigger and thicker. It completely filled my throat up. I was amazed, I could still breathe, and I didn't gag. Then with a wolf howl he started to plunge harder, deeper. He picked up speed and then with a final loud howl and plunge, he emptied his cum load into my throat. In my wolf form the taste was unbelievable. It was so warm and sweet. I felt my inners absorbing his juice, making it part of my system. It was making me stronger, healthier, and much more alive than I had ever been.
Then in an instant I too was blowing my load. I covered his legs with my cum. I was quivering and shaking. I took my mouth off of wolfs cock and then started to lick my cum off of Wolf's legs. Wolf was making little whimpering noise of pure joy.
When I had him clean, he reached down and pulled me to my feet laughing out loud.
"You are truly amazing my little Fox," He cried out, "Put your clothes on , I want to show the animals what has happened to you."
He meant our horses, Storm and Ivory and our cow Mary-belle. I quickly left his arms and ran back to the bedroom to dress. I couldn't believe how much energy and power flowed throughout my new body.
I quickly pulled on my jeans and t-shirt. Then I ran eagerly back to the living room where Wolf awaited me. He held out his hand and I grasped it and he led me out the front door to the barn.
My senses and awareness had increased a hundredfold. I could feel nature all around me. It was like I had developed a sixth sense. I could hear all kinds of sounds, even the rustling of the grass and the leaves on the trees. It was spectacular.
We arrived at the barn and I heard one of the horse nicker. They knew we were coming and they somehow sensed the change that had taken place.
As we entered the barn both Storm and Ivory lifted their heads in greeting and as one they nickered to me. Holy shit, it actually sounded like they said greetings Fox, and you are now one with us. I quickly looked at Wolf with a stunned look on my face.
Wolf tilted his head back and laughed a hearty laugh and blurted out, "Yes Fox, you can actually understand them. A part of the change you had is that you are able to relate and understand nature and animals. You have entered into a whole new world."
Ivory, who I usually rode, nickered to me again. "Fox go riding?" he said in broken English. I guess that although I could understand animals now they could not speak accurately and thus it was broken English.
I quickly looked at Wolf and exclaimed, "Can we Wolf, Please can we?
"Well if Ivory and storm are up to it I do not see why not." Wolf replied.
Both Storm and Ivory nodded their heads so Wolf and I got down the saddles and fitted them to the stallion's backs.
Then we led them out of the barn and mounted up. As I sat on Ivory's back I felt a strange attachment to him. I felt like I was a living extension of him. I didn't even have to say anything; somehow he sensed what I wanted. He moved out at a slow walk and once we were clear of the barnyard he broke into a trot and then a canter.
We were flying over the ground at great speed. I felt like I was flying. It was truly exhilarating. The trees and the meadows just flew by. Wolf was at my side intensely watching me. Feeling the excitement that I was feeling.
We rode for what seemed like hours and then all of a sudden I found we were back at the barnyard. The horses went up to the barn and stopped at the door. Wolf and I dismounted and removed the saddles.
Ivory nickered,"Fox have fun?" He inquired.
I laughed and answered him, "Fun hardly describes it. You are a truly amazing stallion and I think that I can and do love you as an equal, a true friend."
Ivory reached out with his nose and gently nibbled my shoulder in a horse kiss. I grabbed his nose and planted a sloppy kiss on it. He lifted his head and snorted in my face and sprayed me with his saliva. Then he did a horse laugh.
We all had a good laugh at that.
Well now it was time for lunch, but before that we had to wipe down and groom the stallions. Wolf got a bucket of warm water and a couple of horse brushes and we cared for our stallions. Giving them a well-deserved bath.
When we finished Wolf took my hand and led me to the house and lunch. It had been an exciting morning and it was going to be an exciting rest of the day.
As we sat down to the lunch that Wolf had prepared earlier. My cell phone rang.
It was my Mom. Mom and Dad had separated and gone their own ways quite a few years ago. I had been 16 at the time and because I didn't want to change schools I ended up staying with my Dad.
Mom had moved to Europe and had remarried. She had had another child, a boy; he was now 19 years old. I had never met him but I had talked to him a number of times over the years. I also talked to Mom on a regular basis. At least a couple of times a month.
"Hi Mom, How are you keeping? " I inquired into the phone.
We chatted for ten or fifteen minutes. Then Mom said, "Darian, I have a favour to ask of you. I hope that you can grant it. Your half-brother Dmitriy is having a couple of problems. I think he is gay like you are. He needs some direction and help in settling with his emotions and coming to terms with his homosexuality. I was wondering if you could take him under your wing for a time and show him the ropes. Help him out."
"Just a minute Mom. I'll be right back." I answered her.
Then I turned to Wolf and explained what she had just asked. Was he willing to take in my half-brother and raise him for a while? Care for him. Wolf nodded to me yes and said it would be nice to have a young man around to nurture and care for. I was so happy, I would finally get to meet and know my brother.
I turned back to the phone and spoke into it, "Mom I asked Wolf and he said yes that would be fine. He and I would be happy to do it. I really look forward to finally meeting Dmitriy. When can he come?"
Mom answered, "He can be on a plane by the end of the week and he could be there in say ten days."
We chatted a bit more and then we said Love you and hung up.
I turned to wolf. I was so excited and he could see the joy in me. I was finally going to meet my brother. I wondered what he was like. Were we the same? Would we like each other? There were so many questions.
Wolf told me it would be OK and he was there to support me.
We discussed how to get ready for Dmitriy. Would I fuck my Half Brother, make him part of our PAC? Would he join with us? Would I let him Fuck me? I guess we could only wait to find out.

From the Pulitzer Prize winning Washington Post comes a meticulously detailed, insightful report on the killing that brought the nation's attention to a city coming apart at the seams.
Three minutes in Middle America shook a nation to its foundation. To many, it shone a spotlight on the frequently violent, often deadly interactions between young men of color and police departments. It highlighted the racial disparity in policing techniques, in response to crime, and in how race relations are perceived in an America where many incorrectly pride the country on being "post-racial."
Renowned journalist Wesley Lowery has pulled together a vast and troubling panorama of reportage on the Ferguson slaying, and the aftermath--the marches, the clashes, and the slow, painful process of building trust between a devastated community and a police department tasked with serving and protecting it.
Challenging and necessary, Ferguson engages America in a frank and necessary dialogue about race relations, about legacies of bigotry that continue to this day, and about a path forward as one nation, equal under the law.

About Me
For over a decade now, I have worked as a freelance illustrator (books, magazines,games, etc), and though that has provided me many things, artistic freedom has been pushed to the side. So, I created the SE7EN14 project to examine an unexpressed facet of myself. Not only is there an element of exploration, but the challenge of allowing myself to let it come out and be both unashamed and uncompromising about it. So far it has been both a huge learning experience and extremely liberating.
You'll notice quickly that the female form takes a strong role in my paintings. There is the obvious sexual element, but I also combine that subject matter to parallel my struggle to allow myself to feel as free and myself as much as I possibly can. The idea of being nude in nature represents an ultimate form of freedom and liberation. To learn more about my art and exploration, please visit my website SE7EN14.COM
If any of this project appeals to you, please feel free to contact me. Perhaps it is just the thing to help diversify your portfolio.
Thanks for your time.

NEW YORK – Carmelo Anthony let it fly from halfcourt, and when it went in, he had proof of what was already obvious.
"When I made the shot at the half, I told myself the zone was there," Anthony said.
Soon, he had passed Kevin Durant. Next was Bernard King, and finally Kobe Bryant.
Three records, all shot down in one scintillating performance.
Anthony scored a career-high 62 points to break the franchise and current Madison Square Garden marks, and the New York Knicks beat the Charlotte Bobcats 125-96 on Friday night.
Anthony made 23 of 35 shots, one when he leapt from center court to beat the halftime buzzer, and even added 13 rebounds in the NBA's highest-scoring performance this season.
Anthony had 56 after three quarters, bettering Durant's previous season high of 54, and stayed in for the first few minutes of the fourth to break King's Knicks record of 60 set in 1984 and Bryant's arena record of 61 set five years ago.
"I made history tonight, with the performance, but just to be a part of that group of people, like I said, there's only a small group of people that knows what that zone feels like and tonight I was one of them," Anthony said.
It was easily the highlight of the season for Anthony, on pace to miss the playoffs for the first time in his career and facing frequent questions about his future with the team as he heads into free agency this summer.
That was all on hold for one night, the focus simply on Anthony's amazing scoring.
He easily passed his previous career best of 50 points and possibly could've even passed 70 or more had the game been close. Instead, he checked out for good after breaking the records when he banked in a short jumper with 7:24 to play.
"I've seen him score a lot of points, but that was some performance right there," said J.R. Smith, who was also a teammate of Anthony's in Denver.
Smith noticed a different focus from Anthony before the game, a seriousness replacing the usual laughter. Perhaps some of it was some added pregame motivation after the team watched a video featuring Muhammad Ali, one of Anthony's favorite athletes.
With the Knicks desperately thin in the frontcourt after losing Andrea Bargnani on top of the injuries to Amare Stoudemire and Kenyon Martin, Anthony simply took on more of the scoring load as New York won for the first time on its eight-game homestand after dropping the first three.
Al Jefferson had 25 points and nine rebounds for the Bobcats, snapping his streak of four straight 20-10 games. Charlotte had won two in a row, holding division leaders Toronto and the Los Angeles Clippers to an average of 93 points.
But the Knicks, who had lost to the Bobcats 10 days ago to start their current skid, shot 56 percent. So what happened to Charlotte's defense?
"Melo. Enough said," Jefferson said.

Girls do you like to wear sexy shorts and shirts and see men check you out?
Most Helpful Girl
I may go for the shorts, sexy sandles, but no cleavage. I hate when men stare, it makes me uncomfortable. Especially when I am talking, and instead of looking at my face all they are looking at is my chest. It's weird.10|10|0

Fifth Test Match
Trinidad - Day Five
England 546-6 dec (P D Collingwood 161, A J Strauss 142, M J Prior 131 no) & 237-6 dec (K P Pietersen 102, M J Prior 61) v West Indies 544 (S Chanderpaul 147 no, B P Nash 109, C H Gayle 102) & 114-8
West Indies drew with England
England came up just short in their attempts to square the series on a dramatic last day in Trinidad as the West Indies clung on for a draw in the fifth Test.
Set an unlikely 240 to win from 66 overs in the final two sessions, the hosts were forced to endure a nervous finish before reaching the close on 114-8.
Denesh Ramdin and Fidel Edwards, who was at the crease when the hosts held out in similar circumstances in Antigua, made sure their side clinched the Wisden Trophy.
Missed opportunities
While Chris Gayle and his team will celebrate a first series triumph in five years, England will look back on missed opportunities, both in this Test and throughout the series in the Caribbean.
Skipper Andrew Strauss is likely to face some tough questions over the timing of his declaration, just as he had to after failing to win the third Test.
Resuming with a lead of 82, Kevin Pietersen's hundred pushed the tourists into a sizeable lead, perhaps even a little too big considering the West Indies were left with little option but to bat out time, rather go for victory themselves.
Having raced to 34 on the fourth evening, Pietersen continued to pummel the bowlers, including several part-timers, to reach his 16th Test ton. He eventually holed out for 102 having hit nine fours and a six off 92 balls.
Although Paul Collingwood perished early, chipping a simple return catch back to Ryan Hinds, Matt Prior came out to help add 106 in a hurry.
Fresh from a hundred in the first innings, the wicketkeeper-batsman even out-scored his batting partner, managing eight boundaries in his 49-ball 61.
Eventually Lionel Baker ended Prior's fun by knocking back his middle stump, a perfect time perhaps to end the innings early and have a bowl before lunch.
Instead Strauss opted to go on and when the declaration did come during the interval it set up a race against time to pick up 10 wickets.
Lendl Simmons became the first to go in the seventh over, bowled by James Anderson, a superb slip catch from Collingwood removing the makeshift opener for eight.
Devon Smith went soon after, a wretched-looking sweep seeing him trapped leg before to become Graeme Swann's first victim.
Certain draw
The off-spinner, battling an elbow injury, then picked up the key wicket of Ramnaresh Sarwan, Collingwood again working wonders at slip, though with the score at tea 78-3 the draw still looked an odds-on certainty.
The same combination nearly saw the back of Shivnarine Chanderpaul but an edge fell just short. The left-hander faced a further 50 deliveries before becoming the third victim for Swann, who finished with remarkable figures of 3-13 from 21 overs.
Brendan Nash contributed just one and when Ryan Hinds was unfortunate to get given out caught behind, a victim of his team-mates wasting the two referrals earlier in the innings, England's hopes were raised again.
Monty Panesar, who had ended Hinds' 94-ball vigil, eventually got umpire Russell Tiffin to agree with an lbw appeal against Gayle (four) and then the impressive Anderson yorked Daren Powell with 20 balls to go.
However, Edwards once again proved an immovable object, as he and Ramdin, who finished unbeaten on 17, made sure the West Indies held on.

The author of The Pocket Wife explores the dark side of love, marriage, and infidelity in this sizzling novel of psychological suspense.
Everybody's luck runs out. This time it could be theirs....
It isn't safe. That's what Joe tells her when he ends their affair - moments before their car skids off an icy road in a blinding snowstorm and hits a tree. Desperate to keep her life intact - her job, her husband, and her precious daughter, Lily - Dorrie will do everything she can to protect herself, even if it means walking away from the wreckage.
Dorrie has always been a good actress, pretending to be someone else: the dutiful daughter, the satisfied wife, the woman who can handle anything. Now she's going to put on the most challenging performance of her life. But details about the accident leave her feeling uneasy and afraid. Why didn't Joe's airbag work? Why was his car door open before the EMTs arrived? And now suddenly someone is calling her from her dead lover's burner phone....
Joe's death has left his wife in freefall as well. Karen knew Joe was cheating - she found some suspicious emails and followed him that fateful night, witnessing the fatal crash. Trying to cope with grief is devastating enough without the constant fear that has overtaken her - this feeling she can't shake that someone is watching her. And with Joe gone and the kids grown, she's vulnerable...and on her own.
Insurance investigator Maggie Devlin is suspicious of the latest claim that's landed on her desk - a man dying on an icy road shortly after buying a lucrative life insurance policy. Maggie doesn't believe in coincidences. The former cop knows that things - and people - are never what they seem to be.
As the fates of these three women become more tightly entwined, layers of lies and deception begin to peel away, pushing them dangerously to the edge...closer to each other...to a terrifying truth...to a shocking end.

Should have used 3 narrators
This book had potential BUT there were too many characters involved and I found myself having to write down the names and who they were in order to follow the book. The narrator did a great job and I really liked her voice, however, the three main characters were all female and were all voiced by the same person. I kept having to rewind to figure out which character's chapter she was reading. As far as the book itself, I kept asking myself "Are we going to get to the point anytime soon?" Dragged on too much for me and not enough suspense or mystery really. I could of listened to the first chapter and the last 30 minutes and that would have been all I needed. Feel like the middle was just page filler.Anyways, not the best book I've listened to but also not the worst! Would recommend to other Audible members but it's not a "keep you up all night in suspense can't turn it off" kind of book.

Doesn't live up to the hype
I didn't care about the characters. There was too much switching between the characters and bringing in back stories that didn't add to the main storyline.
I would not recommend this to anyone.
The narrator had terrible voices for the male characters. They sounded like robots and spoke very slowly. She would have done better by just reading them in her regular voice.

THE name Rafal Olbinski may ring no bell for you. Odds are you know his paintings, however. A contemporary surrealist, he has graced the covers of magazines like Time, Business Week and Der Spiegel, illustrating reports on globalization, new frontiers in psychotherapy, the rise of the yen: huge, abstract themes, crystallized in images as startling as they are nail-on-the-head.
As it happens, Mr. Olbinski is an architect by training. But it took him only three days as low man on a senior architect's totem pole to set him on his true path. ''Architecture was my father's dream, not mine,'' he explained recently in his studio in midtown Manhattan, speaking in a gravelly basso profondo that fitted strangely with his gentle, murmured speech. Besides, he added, the hours did not suit him. (Mr. Olbinski is a night owl.)
From then on, he worked in two dimensions. Until, that is, his current project for the Opera Company of Philadelphia: décor for ''Don Giovanni.'' The new production of Mozart's tale of rampant lust and revenge from beyond the grave opens on Friday, staged by Robert B. Driver, the troupe's producing artistic director, with costumes by Robert Sinclair.
Tall, bearded and Bohemian of aspect, Mr. Olbinski, 56, looks as if he might, at the drop of a helmet and halberd, step onstage in Verdi's ''Trovatore.'' A latecomer to opera, he has shown an uncanny knack for capturing the essence of works by Mozart or Verdi or Janacek with the same startling precision that moves his covers off the newsstands.
His flourishing sideline in opera posters has yielded ''Olbinski and the Opera'' (from Nahan Editions in Stamford, Conn.), a book of memorable pictures commissioned by companies in the artist's native Poland as well as in his adopted America. The cover, from the Cincinnati Opera, depicts Tosca, Puccini's Roman diva, gazing out from a frame that is part window, part toy theater. Attached to strings in her hand is a Lilliputian artist -- her lover, Cavaradossi -- standing beside a blank canvas. An introductory essay in the book, by Christopher Mount, the former editor of I.D. (International Design) Magazine, quotes the artist to pointed effect: ''He tries to achieve complexity with only a few words,'' Mr. Mount writes, ''or as he states, 'so that there is no difference between the complex and the simple.' ''Continue reading the main story
Thus, in Mr. Olbinski's poster for Strauss's ''Rosenkavalier,'' his diminutive Octavian, bearer of the silver rose, dances nimbly through empty space from the giant hand of his mistress to the giant hand of his bride. For Verdi's ''Falstaff,'' the artist transformed merry wives of Windsor into little bird-women, in full Elizabethan feather, perched like larks on Sir John's horizontal mustache, a giddy conception executed in a palette transparent yet rich, in brushwork both graceful and strong.
Two years ago, Mr. Olbinski startled Philadelphia with a poster for Strauss's ''Salome'' that showed the dancing princess (nude from the waist down), superimposed on the severed head of John the Baptist, his open eye positioned in the cleft of her crossed legs. The artist's intention, he said, was to create an image that ''would be as controversial as the opera yet also give the audience emotional and intellectual insight.''
Mr. Driver, for one, thought that Mr. Olbinski had ''nailed it,'' he said. So provocatively, in fact, that the poster went on display at the company's home, the Academy of Music, festooned with a strategically draped, rose-colored veil.
With ''Don Giovanni'' on this year's schedule, Mr. Driver's thoughts turned to Mr. Olbinski, but for a whole scenic concept rather than just a poster. ''Finding someone who has an eye and can put the complexities of a piece all together in one image, that's rare,'' he said recently. ''I want to interpret the piece the composer and librettist wrote, not impose some external idea. But at the same time, you have to bring it to the audiences of today. We can't have a walking statue now. It's ridiculous. I wanted something fresh but strong. Rafal has an incredible intellect and humor but also a dark side. I knew he could do it.''
Mr. Driver had already made certain basic choices (some of them reminiscent of productions, unknown to him, by Peter Sellars and Luca Ronconi). The action has been updated to the 1930's, a period the director associates not with the Depression but with high living, a veneer of elegance and appetite run riot as well as with the rigid class structures that steer so much of Mozart's characters' behavior.
The jilted Donna Elvira, who claims to be Don Giovanni's wife, arrives by train, with luggage galore (as Mr. Driver's stepmother used to do, between homes in Memphis and Brazil). From his readings in Kierkegaard, Mr. Driver has taken away the idea of the title character as ''the cosmic manifestation of original eros.'' Mr. Driver's Giovanni drinks, and the hell to which the infernal tormentors drag him is (like the last stop on Blanche DuBois's streetcar named Desire) a place where attendants do their work in white coats.
Mr. Olbinski accepted the assignment at once. He had, as it happens, dabbled in theater design as a student, with experimental productions of Alfred Jarry's absurdist classic ''Ubu Roi'' and the Brecht-Weill ''Three Penny Opera.'' But this time, instead of preparing sketches and blueprints for use by the scenery shop, he was painting pictures that would (for the most part) be used as projections.
The originals remain in Mr. Olbinski's studio, in the long, narrow basement of a brownstone, a much brighter space than a visitor might expect thanks to a picture window the full width of the southern wall. Half hidden behind a coffee table, a baroque fireplace yawns like a domestic mouth of hell.
Mr. Olbinski's assignment is the opposite of the usual. Whereas his posters distill in a single, timeless image the life of an entire dramatic world, a stage design (his or anyone else's) must define the arena in which the twists and turns of the action may unfold.
Sure enough, Mr. Olbinski's paintings for ''Don Giovanni'' conjure up the empty space that awaits the human presence. His Seville hovers in the suburbs of the Ideal City immortalized in the painting of the Renaissance master Piero Della Francesca: a rational space paved in level terrazzo, apart from nature and the seasons. But Mr. Olbinski's pin-striped uncle-in-spirit René Magritte (or his Belgian compatriot, Paul Delvaux) has taken a hand, hanging window frames in midair, each an icon of secret destinies.
WE see fragments of palazzi, an arriving train. Later canvases transport us to a wintry park, where bare trees scratch like skeletons against a sky dusted with stars, and lonely women gaze from their floating windows. Elsewhere, women are trapped in oversize bird cages. An extra one is conveniently vacant.
Among further images are a maze of playing cards, all hearts; a charming pavilion (part casino, part giant double bed), which projects into the sky from an emerald lawn; a circular topiary labyrinth; a Bugatti (the sexiest of motor vehicles); and the eeriest of graveyards, thick with tombstones in the shape of blacked-out windows. As retribution draws nearer, the motif of a demonic mask appears with increasing menace. (Though not unlike Mr. Olbinski's fireplace, it actually quotes from the well-known Mouth of Hell in the Park of Monsters in the Italian hill town of Bomarzo.)
In the mind's eye, the paintings translate instantly into a huge pop-up book. But in Philadelphia, most of the décor will actually consist of back projections. Thus, distinctions between the back wall and the floor (fundamental to several of the artist's images) are left to the viewer's imagination. The company shops will build only a facade here, a window there, a bird cage or two, the odd tombstone. Don Giovanni's custom Bugatti, with its built-in love seat (think of the possibilities), has been contracted out. With luck, it should roll on to a big hand.
Maybe someday another company with more money to burn will want to realize Mr. Olbinski's visions in more spatial, concrete fashion. But who is to say that such treatment would be an improvement? Jerome Sherk, Philadelphia's director of productions, who has watched such celebrated and well-traveled stagings as Jean-Pierre Ponnelle's version of Rossini's ''Italiana in Algeri'' evolve over time, is well aware of the trade-offs.
''Sometimes, when designs are realized in bigger, more expensive and more complex ways, something is lost in the process,'' Mr. Sherk said recently. ''People who have seen the entire process may refer back to the original with great fondness. Certainly what's most fun for us in the theater is to work with a creative artist in the throes of the creative process rather than recreating something later. The new ideas may be good, but you miss the simplicity.''
A larger question is whether this ''Don Giovanni'' might prove the prelude to the emergence of a new designer-director in the mold of Ponnelle, Herbert Wernicke or Hugo de Ana. Is Mr. Olbinski thinking along those lines? ''In my dreams I always wanted to be a movie director,'' he said. ''It's probably too late for that. Directing opera would be extremely challenging and extremely tempting.''
Should such things come to pass, perhaps Mr. Olbinski will give up painting posters, at least for opera. In fact, the billboard now on view at the Academy of Music gives away none of the production's visual concepts. It is a full-length portrait of the artist, in shirt and suit black as the hero's heart and shoes red as the fires of hell.Continue reading the main story

I consider myself to be pretty, I've been called beautiful but still when a guy is attracted to me or is hitting on me I find it hard to believe. I always think he's doing it because he may be drunk (if it happens in a party) or that I'm the last option. It's just that even though I see myself as someone pretty I don't find me to have any sex appeal or being able to be attractive.
Is this normal? how could I change it?
Most Helpful Guy
I feel the same too. When a woman is looking at me and keeps looking, I think to myself why are they looking at an ugly guy like me? I never think a girl could be sexually attracted to me. It's just a self confidence issue and you need to build your confidence to get over it. I'm trying but I just don't see myself as a guy who a girl would be interested in.11|00|0

Setting: Western Earth Kingdom; heavily forested
Time: 2:30 AM
Heading: Wherever the hell Lee and Mako are
Kato, dressed in a dark blue parka, mittens, and hooded to keep his ears warm as it was the dead of night, stood like a statue beside his blue Water Tribe tent, a lantern sitting next to him. The shining flame created shadows of various shapes and sizes which spread far into the depths of the surrounding forest. Sounds of animals could be heard from all corners of the wood. Above him, the hoots and chirps of many different birds and the resounding songs of the quiet blue jays. Around him, the patter of delicately moving feet, as though the creatures were hiding from predators. Mixed with the movement of the thinner, more wispy trees, the wind blowing with a kind of whistly noise, the scene was, although peaceful, strangely eerie with the low moonlight of a crescent moon. And Kato noticed this indeed.
"If a polar bear dog attacked you right now, at this moment, what would you do?" Kato whispered to himself, beginning to pace in a circle around his tent. "Would you: A. Hide in your tent, B. Freeze it with your bending, or C. Kill it with your spear?" After a few seconds pondering his decision, Kato ran into his tent and grabbed his spear. "If you hid in the tent, the animal could easily claw its way in and kill you without any difficulty. Freezing it would just stall the issue. The spear would be your best option, as you could easily slaughter the bear for its meat... But then again, what if you had to get the spear from within the tent and, once you had dropped your guard, it devoured you with its mammoth's teeth?"
Once more, Kato stopped to think about an action plan and had another idea. "You could first freeze'em with your Waterbending, then thaw it with your lantern once its died of frostbite. But... How would a polar bear dog die of frostbite?!"
Kato thought one last time about what he should do, then crawled back out of the tent and jumped to his feet. "I know! You would keep the spear outside of the tent, and that way you wouldn't have to go inside the tent to retrieve it. Therefore, you would avoid an untimely death at the hands of a rabid polar bear dog, all because you didn't foolishly trap yourself in the sanctuary of suicidal submission." Finally, Kato realized what everyone should have seen by now. "But... There aren't any polar bear dogs in the Earth Kingdom!"
Just then, the lantern's fire went out without warning. Kato surveyed the area cautiously, looking for anything that moved. Nothing did. "Do not overreact to something that isn't," Kato whispered, proceeding back into his tent again. "It is time to reflect." After taking off his parka (now wearing his originally seen shirt), lying down on it and letting down his wolf knot, Kato shut his eyes. That child and his brother must be so far away by now. I wonder why someone would kidnap his little brother... and why is all of the information about where their from is being kept a secret. I'll bet there's something shady going on. Things just don't look right. Kato pulled out the wanted poster of Lee and Mako. But I can't give up just yet. I need that money.
Then Kato shut his eyes. He thought of everything that had happened so far on his journey, which was, basically, nothing. He'd been through a few towns, had met a few people, but anything eventful had been left behind with his work. Camping nightly had grown tedious and boring. Kato wondered if there would ever be anything to keep him interested during his quest. And right when he began to doze off...
"Gaaaahhhh!" Kato yelled, scrambling out of the tent. "What the hell, there aren't any polar bear dogs in the Earth Kingdom! I just established that like, what, five minutes ago?!"
A huge, six-and-a-half foot bear pounced onto the premises. Its body was covered in dark brown fur with a white "V"-shaped formation of hair on its chest. Yellow teeth, bared in fury, gritted angrily. This was no ordinary bear, however.
"What the hell is that thing supposed to be?!" Kato shouted comically, noting the animal's bill. "Is it, like, a duck or something?!" Then he saw its tail. "Maybe a beaver?!" The creature roared again and began running on two legs toward its prey. "Well, no time to think about that stuff!" Kato sidestepped smoothly and grabbed the spear which he had left next to the tent, and although he avoided a "death of suicidal submission", his only shelter during his camping trips was trampled in the process. "And there goes my tent. Great."
When the beast tried to regain its composure, Kato saw his chance. After putting down his spear, Kato bent fluid from his water skin and sent it toward his opponent. Once it made contact with the bear's hind legs, Kato exhaled while slowly pushing his hands in the animal's direction. The bear was frozen up to its waist.
By now the noises of the forest had quieted. Everything was waiting to see who would make the next move. It was Kato. "Time to die, big guy!" Kato picked up the spear again and charged at the helpless animal, thrusting the wooden tool through its chest. The bear squirmed helplessly in place, still bound by the hardened ice. Blood flowed out of the hole which was left by Kato's spear. The pitiful creature roared one final roar, and died. "Well... That was much easier than a grown polar bear dog. Either way, I'm eating pretty when I wake up today!"
After pulling the bear to the side, Kato inspected the damage to his tent. It was in ruins. Nothing that was inside of it before, including his parka, was even recognizable now. "Damn... I guess I'm sleeping under the stars tonight."
After Kato had lain down, he thought over his new predicament. "Hmmm..." he whispered, "I have no shelter. Nothing to protect me from a viper hidden in the dirt. What would happen if..." Kato's voice trailed off for a moment, then he jumped to his feet. "If you had nothing to shield you from the dangers of the outside world, what would you do?" Once again, Kato began to pace in a circle around the remains of his tent. "Would you: A. Create an all-new makeshift shelter of leaves and tree branches, B. Make a hammock in the trees high above, so as to protect you from creatures on the ground, or C. Dig a trench and bury yourself in it until dawn?"
Kato didn't wait one second before making this first decision. He quickly climbed the branches of one of the sturdier, stable looking trees. "The trench wouldn't be a good idea because, well, you'd suffocate. On the higher ground, you would be safe from earthbound dangers. But... What if a carnivorous hawk swooped down and gouged your eyes out? Then what?" Kato thought about it again and jumped back to the ground, land on his feet perfectly. "If you made a shelter on the earth, nothing could penetrate you from above. There will still be the issue of the evil viper, though." Kato looked around for something that could ward off predators, something menacing and scary. Then he laid eyes upon his breakfast and grinned. "That'll work."
Kato first took his spear and climbed back up the tree he was just on. As he stood on one branch, he would chop down the one above him with the spear. He continued to do this until he had about twelve three foot branches. Next, Kato shook various trees all around him, and many large green leaves fell. Then, he picked up the branches and stuck them into the dirt at a diagonal angle, six branches on each side, until there was a large triangular tent. After that, Kato took the many leaves and put them in-between each of the branches' ridges and used them to make a door on each of the open sides of the tent. Finally, he dragged the bear over to the foot of his brand new tent.
"That looks nice," Kato whispered, "and all of the animals would be scared of your bodyguard". Kato stepped inside his new shelter and laid down.
In his new tent, it was pitch black. The sounds of the forest had returned. Above him, the hoots and chirps of many different birds, but no longer were they quiet. Around him, the patter of delicately moving animal feet, but no longer did they have to hide. Everything was peaceful. What a nice setting, he thought, shutting his eyes. I wonder if those fugitives have as hard a time as I do. Well, I know the older guy does, considering he must have his hands full concealing all this from his little brother. As Kato began to fall asleep, his final thought was I feel bad for the kid. Doesn't even know what's going on. He's a lot like me. Right at that moment, a faint light, growing larger by the second, shone through the tent.
Kato crawled back out of the tent to see the sun's rays growing slowly over the treetops. After about a minute of staring in bewilderment, Kato sighed, "Oh, well... time to have some grilled duck-beaver-bear."
- If you couldn't guess, it was a platypus bear.
- Kato is sympathetic toward Mako. That will be very important throughout the first book, or even the entire series.
- This chapter's name is a pun, as its name is very similar to the series'.
- i.e. The Road -- The Night; that Never -- that Finally; Ends -- Ended... I'm gonna do lots more of those.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
Believe it ir not, my attorney sent a demand to the insurance company for the full value if the policy and they agreed!! So, we have settled. Now my attorneys paralegal is negotiating my medical bills. How long can this take. Better yet do they have a certain time to do this in. At first she was all excited.cause we settled. Now when I call to check on the status of the negotiations, she tells me she hasn't even pulled my file yet. Do they get their cut right off the bat or do they have to wait for the medical bills to be settled too. Just seems like the breaks have been applied. I was thinking that they have all ready got paid so now there is no real hurry on their end anymore
I think the best person to address this question is your attorney. Why don't you call and request a telephone conference with him or her to discuss? In general terms, the attorney does not get paid until a Closing Statement is signed by the client breaking down the money as to fees/costs/LOPs/Liens/Medicals paid, and net to client. Some providers are easier and quicker to deal with than others.Ask a similar question
Speak with your attorney but your lawyer will not get paid until you sign off on the settlement papers AND closing statement.
Good luck,
There is no set time frame for the negotiation of the bills and a lot depends on the medical providers themselves. Like any negotiation, there may be a a bit of back and forth until an agreement is reached. in many cases the client also was covered by health insurance, Medicare or Medicaid. These health insurance plans are also entitled to repayment for the amounts they paid for related medical treatment and they usually have a lien on the settlement proceeds. Dealing with Medicare alone often requires many months to conclude negotiations and it is unlikely they will even respond to a letter in less than 90 days.
In addition, if you are receiving Medicare assistance, there might be issues relating to the protection of Medicare's interests with respect to the payment of future medical bills related to the incident.
Without knowing the specific facts of your case it is impossible to provide more detail; however, your attorney will be able to answer these questions for you.Ask a similar question
Negotiating the medical bills can take a couple months or longer depending on how much of a reduction you are asking for. For example, if you are asking the doctors to accept 30% of their bill, then this may take longer to get approved as often times medical facilities have managers or other individuals who must sign off on such a signifcant reduction. Some medical providers will not agree to accept the proposed reduction and will counter with a higher figure. Other times, the medical bills have been sold to collection agencies and it is difficult to find who actually even holds the bill. Regardless, your attorney cannot take any fees on your case until you have signed the Closing Statement. So, unless you have signed a Closing Statement (which would be highly unusual considering your medical bills have not been reduced yet), your attorney has not received any money yet either. Just keep calling the office to check on the status. This should help keep your file on the top of the stack. Good Luck!
This information is for general purposes only and should not be construed as giving legal advice, or as establishing an attorney-client relationship. Since each case is unique and every state has their own unique laws, any questions should be addressed with an attorney in your state.Ask a similar question
Your attorney will have a better idea than any of us who don't know how many providers there are, whether medicare or medicaid involved, and other factors. Medicare can take a long time. Your attorney obviously got you policy limits which is as good as it gets, so just be patient and let her negotiate the bills for you. That gets you more money in the long run.Ask a similar question
Definitely speak with your attorney directly. That being said there is no set time for reductions to be completed and your attorney should not be taking any fee on the settlement until you have signed off on the closing statement or final accounting.Ask a similar question
You should really address these questions to your attorney, I'm sure she will be happy to answer them for you. Negotiating medical bills and liens can take time depending if health insurance or Medicare paid some bills. There may be other issues like approval from the underinsured motorist carrier or negotiating a medical payments coverage lien. I would keep on top of your lawyer!!Ask a similar question
I would discuss your concerns with your attorney. Common practice is that we get paid when you get paid. The settlement funds should remain in trust until all medical providers are paid and you receive your settlement proceeds. In regards to time, each case is different. Negotiating medical bills can be complex and time-consuming. Talk to your attorney.Ask a similar question
Although there is no set timeframe in which to negotiate medical bills, before we take a cut out of the settlement for our fees and costs, it is our firm's practice to negotiate and finalize the amounts that each provider and/or insurer is claiming out of the settlement. As soon as we receive written confirmation that an insurer accepted our demand and agrees to settle for a certain amount, we begin contacting the providers/insurers to negotiate the monies they are owed. I suggest sending your attorney an email and asking for a written summary of the medical bills that your attorney has negotiated and request a written status of the settlement. I wish you the best.Ask a similar question
