In search of a medical expert / professional to speak on the
longer-term impact that tear gas and pepper spray used by police
can have on protesters. I have spoken with three people with
uteruses who report their periods being induced hours after
being exposed to tear gas or pepper spray, no matter where they
are in their cycle, as well as heavy bleeding, intense cramping
and passing unusually large clots.I would like to include a
medical professional in our reporting who can speak to these
complaints, and discuss the issue from a medical perspective.
Requirements:
Medical professional or expert - doesn't matter what geographic
region. Figured that given the volatility of the topic of police
and protesters, an out-of-town medical expert may be more
comfortable discussing this topic so as to avoid any interaction
with our local police department.

Media Outlet: Bankrate
Deadline: 3:00 PM CST - 4 September
Query:
Hello. My name is Erik Martin, freelance writer for
Bankrate.com. I'm seeking to interview mortgage lenders,
attorneys, mortgage industry experts, real estate faculty, real
estate organization spokespersons, and other housing/real estate
experts for the following story:
What happens to my mortgage if the lender goes bankrupt or out
of business? This story will explain what happens to your
mortgage after closing and what to do and what to expect when a
bank or lender shutters or is in trouble. Please contact me if
you'd like to participate (and before writing anything). My
deadline is 3 PM central, Friday, September 4.
QUESTIONS: 1. What happens to a mortgage loan after you close
on that loan? Does your loan typically get held, serviced,
and/or sold? 2. What is the difference between a lender versus a
servicer? Why is it important to know who holds your mortgage,
and the difference between the lender/bank and the actual
servicer of the loan? 3. Please explain what happens to your
mortgage if a bank or lender is in trouble or goes out of
business? What happens to your mortgage? And what are your
responsibilities in this situation? 4. What should borrowers
expect in this scenario: Will the lender/bank contact them well
in advance if they are in trouble, expecting bankruptcy, or
anticipating going out of business? 5. How often does something
like this happen? Is it more common than many borrowers may
think? Can you cite a recent example of a lender or bank that
has gone under and affected mortgage borrowers? 6. What will
happen if your loan is sold or transferred to another lender or
servicer? What advance notice might you receive? Is there
anything you can do about this, or is this out of your control
as a borrower? 7. What happens if you are in the middle of
applying for a loan and waiting for approval or closing, and the
lender/bank is in financial trouble? What will happen to your
loan and any escrow money/escrow accounts? What should you do or
expect here? 8. Please explain how mortgage borrowers are
protected from bank/lender failures, including FDIC
insurance/protection and any other safeguards in effect. 9. Is
there ever a scenario in which a mortgage borrower should worry
about their loan or funds involved with their loan due to a
financial crisis suffered by the bank/lender? 10. Any other
thoughts, tips, or ideas? 11. What is your full name, title,
company, city/state location, and email address?

We are looking for personal stories or experts to give tips
about learning how to surrender by letting go and releasing the
need to control the uncontrollable, how to get quiet with
oneself, and going deep inside to do the work that is needed to
grow. We want to know; when dealing with a traumatic situation,
how to pick yourself up and move forward with your life, If your
back was against the wall and you've run out of options, how do
you move forward, what should one do at that moment? We want to
know what happened, and what pushed you not to let it get the
best of you?
