Query:
Microsoft on Friday said it would close its chain of retail
store and take a $450 million charge against earnings to account
for the permanent shutterings.
The stores - Microsoft had 82 worldwide, all but 10 of them
located in the U.S. - have been padlocked since mid-March, when
the Redmond, Wash. company closed them because of the
coronavirus pandemic. None had reopened before Microsoft slid
them into the "really dead" category.
Four outlets - one of the New York City stores, those in London
and Sydney, and an on-campus location in Redmond - will be
repurposed as "Microsoft Experience Centers" where products will
presumably be shown if not sold, highlighted if not hawked.
With significant growth through its digital storefronts,
including Microsoft.com, and stores on Xbox and Windows, the
company will continue to invest in digital innovation across
software and hardware. New services include 1:1 video chat
support, online tutorial videos, and virtual workshops with more
digital solutions to come.

the property was closed or unoccupied due to the pandemic.

I am proposing an article to the New York Times titled "Wedding
Gift Does and Don'ts for Virtual Weddings ... In The Time of the
Corona Virus - Expert Advice to Prevent Etiquette Bloopers and
Busted Budgets. "
I am looking for engaged couples and brides/grooms for their
"gift or not gift" stories.
I will ask experts for the latest gift giving etiquette.
Because of the Covid-19, many weddings have been performed
virtually. Others have cut their guest lists down to family and
a few friends - not the 200+ guests at weddings of the past.
No more eating and drinking and having a great time at a huge
wedding.
What about the engaged couple signing up on gift registries?
In this economy, with so many people out of work, do you really
have to pony up gift after gift for wedding after wedding?
What about the shower? The engagement party? The wedding?
No one wants to look cheap or rude.
What are the new rules?

Deadline: 4:00 PM EST - 7 July
Query:
Hello. My name is Erik Martin, freelance writer for
Bankrate.com. I'm seeking to interview mortgage lending
professionals, real estate attorneys, housing industry/real
estate organization spokespersons, real estate faculty, and
other real estate experts for the following story:
Make sure you're getting the right mortgage loan modification.
This story will briefly explain how Caliber Home Loans had
pushed customers into interest-only and short-term modifications
that reverted to much higher payments later but were recently
forced to provide $17 million in loan forgiveness (details at
https://www.housingwire.com/articles/caliber-home-loans-settlement-will-provide-17-million-in-loan-forgiveness-to-new-yorkers/),
but mostly focus on the lessons to be learned here: How
borrowers can pursue mortgage modifications, what kinds to aim
for and request, how to do so, and how to ensure that your
lender is providing the relief you need. Please contact me if
you'd like to participate. My deadline is 3 p.m. central,
Tuesday, July 7, 2020.
QUESTIONS: 1. What are the important takeaways from the Caliber
Home Loans news (visit the link above for details)? What are the
lessons to be learned here for borrowers? 2. How does a loan
modification work? Does it vary by lender? Are there
standardized rules that lenders must now follow due to COVID-19
and CARES Act? 3. How is loan modification different from
forbearance and the CARES Act? What are the details/rules here?
4. Who should pursue a loan modification? Who are good
candidates? How do you qualify? 5. What kind(s) of loan
modification should borrowers pursue and request, and why? 6.
What is a "bad" loan modification deal for a borrower? What
should they watch out for and not agree to, and why? How can
they ensure they aren't being taken advantage of? 7. Any other
thoughts, tips, or ideas? 8. What is your full name, title,
company, city/state location, and email address?

Hi, all! For Today.com, I'm working on a roundup of the top 5
biggest mistakes people make when they make mac and cheese - i
feel like there's so many factors that come into play, from the
bechamel or roux to the cheeses we choose to overcooking the
pasta. (not that i ever met a mac and cheese i didn't love!)
This is going to be similar in format to the burger story I did
a few weeks ago
(https://www.today.com/food/10-common-mistakes-people-make-when-cooking-burgers-t182475)
- so please keep that format in mind when pitching me chefs or
culinary instructors to comment for this story. It's more of a
"mistakes you are making" and here's how to avoid those
mistakes/do it right type of piece than a tips/recipes piece. By
tomorrow at noon please. alywalansky@gmail.com thanks!

Name: Erik Martin The Mortgage Reports

Media Outlet: The Mortgage Reports
Deadline: 1:00 PM EST - 13 July
Query:
Hello. My name is Erik Martin with The Mortgage Reports website
(www.themortgagereports.com). I'm looking to interview real
estate faculty, lenders, financial experts, Certified Mortgage
Planning Specialists, lenders/loan officers, property attorneys,
and other real estate experts (no real estate agents/brokers
please) for the following story:
Should you pay off your mortgage early or invest that money
elsewhere? This story will provide tips and insights on why and
how to pay off your mortgage early vs. investing that extra
money elsewhere. Note that I can only accept full-sentence
written responses (which I can use as quotes) for this article.
My deadline for written answers to these questions is noon
central, Monday, July 13.
QUESTIONS: 1. Explain how it's possible to pay off your mortgage
early by paying extra toward your principal each month and how
most lenders allow this. Also, explain how this works: What is
the principle behind making accelerated payments, and how does
making extra payments help pay off the loan earlier? 2. What are
the pros and cons of, and who is a good candidate for: (a)
paying off your mortgage early; versus (b) using that money
instead to invest in your retirement or the stock market? 3.
Imagine you got a $2,000 per month raise. Should you use that
extra money to pay off your mortgage early or invest in the
stock market/your retirement? Please explain, with math: (a) how
much you'd save by paying off your mortgage early here vs. (b)
how much you're likely to gain by investing. 4. Imagine you get
a $100,000 windfall. Should you use that extra money to pay off
your mortgage early or invest in the stock market/your
retirement? Please explain, with math: (a) how much you'd save
by paying off your mortgage early here vs. (b) how much you're
likely to gain by investing. 5. Explain/suggest how it may be
worthwhile to pursue both strategies: maybe refinance into a
lower monthly payment or shorter term and, with your leftover
money instead in the stock market/retirement? 6. What should
people consider carefully before pursuing either option (paying
off a mortgage early vs. investing that money)? 7. Any other
thoughts, tips or suggestions on this topic? 8. What is your
full name, title, company, city/state location, and email
address?
