Query:
This article is looking into whether a person who is being
sexually harassed at work (or by a colleague, since many of us
aren't "at work" right now) should report it to HR. Though this
may seem like a no-brainer, many people have done so without and
not only found it unhelpful, but also faced negative
repercussions at work.
Requirements:
I'm looking to hear from HR reps/managers who can honestly
discuss the following (and not just provide the company handbook
answers that we all know already). Given the sensitive subject
matter, you can use a pseudonym in the article.
1) If you're being sexually harassed at work, should you go to
HR? 2) Is it true that HR reps are really "there to protect the
company and nothing more"? 3) Will going to HR about sexual
harassment put your career in jeopardy? 4) If you do decide to
report sexual harassment, what evidence should you bring to HR?
Also, I'm looking to hear from people who have gone through the
process of reporting sexual harassment at work: What happened?
Was it worth it? (Using pseudonyms for this is fine.)

Hello. My name is Erik Martin and I am a reporter for HomeStyle,
a nationally syndicated home improvement/design section
published weekly in newspapers across the country (visit
https://tinyurl.com/ejmctwfeatures for samples). I'm looking to
interview professional landscapers, hardscape experts, fire pit
experts, real estate agents, homeowners, and other experts for
the following story:
Keep the home fires burning--comfortably in your backyard: How
to build a fire pit. Many homeowners are investing more money
and time into improving their outdoor amenities this year; and
with cooler temperatures on the way, a fire pit can add to
outdoor enjoyment. This story will suggest how DIYers can build
their own backyard fire pit using materials bought at a home
improvement store, plus suggestions on how to keep a fire pit
and the surrounding area safe. Below is a list of questions I'm
seeking answers to. I can only accept written responses via
email. My deadline is noon central, Tuesday, July 7, 2020.
QUESTIONS: 1. Why is it smart to consider adding a fire pit (a
more permanent/stationery one) to your yard? 2. What are the
pros and cons of building a more permanent backyard fire pit
(versus buying a pre-made portable one)? 3. Who are good
candidates for adding a DIY fire pit and why? 4. What are the
best materials for building a DIY fire pit? 5. Please describe
the steps, in order, to build a DIY fire pit. 6. Where are the
best places to put a fire pit in your yard and why? 7. What
precautions should be taken while building the fire pit and
before, during and after using a fire pit? 8. How long can you
expect a DIY-built fire pit to last? 9. Any other thoughts,
tips, or suggestions on this topic? 10. What is your full name,
title, company, city/state location, and email address?

Query:
Hello. My name is Erik Martin and I am a reporter for HomeStyle,
a nationally syndicated home improvement/design section
published weekly in newspapers across the country (visit
https://tinyurl.com/ejmctwfeatures for samples). I'm looking to
interview kitchen designers, architects, remodelers,
contractors, real estate experts/agents, and other experts for
the following story:
Kitchen wish list: Keep it simple. New research from the
National Kitchen & Bath Association (details at
https://businessofhome.com/articles/americans-want-simpler-kitchens)
finds that Americans want their kitchens to get simpler. Eighty
percent of respondents to an NKBA poll said that minimizing
clutter with targeted storage is a critical design need.
Sixty-one percent wanted spaces specifically designed for easy
meal prep--a takeaway that seems obvious, but it's easy to
forget that as the kitchen has gotten bigger, it has become more
difficult to create the kind of tight, convenient
fridge-stove-sink triangle that once defined the space.
Increasingly, we want big-kitchen energy with small-kitchen
convenience. Yet Americans still very much see the kitchen as a
hub of activity. Eighty-seven percent favored open plans, with
as much visibility as possible. The study also suggests that
islands will be getting larger and more explicitly
multifunctional, and identified a desire for more charging
outlets, to support working from home. This piece will summarize
the important findings and offer tips and commentary from pros
as to what homeowners should be considering/planning when it
comes to a kitchen redo. Below is a list of questions I'm
seeking answers to. I can only accept written responses via
email. My deadline is noon central, Tuesday, July 7, 2020.
QUESTIONS: 1. What findings did you find interesting or
unexpected from the aforementioned study? 2. Why do you believe
so many homeowners desire uncluttered/simple kitchens? What's
behind this trend? 3. How can/should homeowners revamp their
kitchens to make them less cluttered/more simple and more
amenable to easy meal prep while also spacious/open-plan as many
desire? Please provide detailed tips here and suggest
components/appliances that fit within these trends. 4. Who are
good candidates for this type of kitchen design and why? Who are
not? 5. What should homeowners consider carefully before
committing to this kitchen design, or ANY kitchen design? 6.
Any other thoughts, tips, or suggestions on this topic? 7. What
is your full name, title, company, city/state location, and
email address?

Query:
COVID-19 has brought a wave of intense new stressors while
removing many of the resources people have traditionally used to
cope with stress. It has been called a "perfect storm" when it
comes to risk of suicide. The impact on suicide is still
unknown. And there's much that practicing psychologists can do
to make sure that people get through this without resorting to
suicide, including screening all of their patients and coming up
with safety plans appropriate for the pandemic. What are suicide
hotlines hearing? Looking to talk to experts as well as others
in Georgia who are dealing with immense levels of stress or have
friends and family struggling and what they are doing to try and
help.
