Query:
I'm doing an article on the practical aspects for consumers of
using those "stop bleeding" bandages and gauze sold in
pharmacies or online. They are marketed for people who take
anti-clotting medication or even for regular old cuts and
lacerations if you are backpacking or kayaking and become
injured. I need a trauma/emergency physician who can address the
practical aspects of using these if you get cut or lacerated.
Requirements:
The person must be an MD who is affiliated with a medical center
or medical institution or has connections with such institution.
They should be able to address the practical aspects of dealing
with the cut/laceration and using any of these products; are any
of the products better at stopping bleeding than others,
precautions when using them, are they better than regular old
band-aids, and could Liquid Bandage work?

Query:
Your Brain on White Guilt: As global protests increase the white
awareness about racial injustice, many are likely experiencing
the phenomenon of White Guilt. I'm working on an article that
will examine the science of guilt--what is happening to us
emotionally and physically? How does guilt impact our
productivity? And, in the framework of the racial justice
movement, how can people move out of a place of guilt and into a
place of action?
I am seeking psychologists, psychiatrists, neuroscientists or
any other medical or science professional to discuss the above
questions. Ideally, I would like people who have specifically
studied guilt or worked with people suffering from guilt. If you
have experience around white guilt specifically, all the better.
I haven't started pitching this piece yet, but I'm hoping to
have it published on Psychology Today or a similar platform.
Please send a brief pitch with your qualifications to address
this matter. If you're a good fit, I'll conduct an email or
phone interview.
Requirements:
You are a practicing medical professional with a degree in
neuroscience, psychology, psychiatry or the like. Willing to
participate in an email or phone interview in the next two
weeks. Specific experience with the study of guilt is ideal but
not required.

Dear Friends Authority Magazine is starting a new series about
How To Give Honest Feedback Without Being Hurtful Full details
here: https://bit.ly/2UR7vNa
When you are a boss or a manager, being able to give honest and

without being hurtful or demoralizing? How do you give direct
and honest feedback and still create and maintain a positive,
upbeat, and healthy work culture?
We would like to interview CEOs, executives, business leaders,
managers, authors, and thought leaders who can discuss how to
give honest feedback without being hurtful.
The interview series will have two stages.
All of the full interviews will be published in Arianna
Huffington's Thrive Global and Authority Magazine, and they will
look like the following:

Individuals who are accepted for this series will be featured in
at least 2 - 4 articles.

primary leads for the series. Most interviews will not require

managers, authors, and thought leaders who can discuss how to
give honest feedback without being hurtful.

This year will be a strange one for Fourth of July celebrations.
Many cities are cutting back or eliminating their public
celebrations, and even inviting friends over will have their
risks. Yet it's a deeply ingrained American tradition. We're
looking at the differences between this year's and last year's
celebrations, how many cities are postponing, and alternatives.
Requirements:
Be able to speak to the importance of the Fourth of July and
celebrating it, and what the celebration means, and how this
year will be different - physically and even psychologically.

social distancing protocols in place like a drive-in movie,
drive-in-concert, outdoor live music with social distancing set
in place in a park, an eating contest, etc. Virtual events
hosted by famous NYC venues are also fine to pitch if they are
truly remarkable. Please send with numbers and stick to
formatting exactly:
1. Name of event, address, phone number, website, time it is
taking place, price to attend (address / phone not relevant for
virtual) 2. Brief blurb 4-5 sentences on what the event is and,
if in person, how it will be hosted safely (i.e., masks
required, markers to designate seats on lawn six-feet apart,
etc.). Please add colorful details where possible. If food is
available, please specify. 3. Contact email for photo department
and if you have them Dropbox link or Google drive link to photos
if you have them of event in years past or relevant pictures
(i.e., if the event is a concert, a pic of a crowded venue makes
no sense right now, but an up-close of the band playing might
work).
Requirements:
Please follow formatting exactly as requested to be considered.
