Query:

Infectious disease drs on if doggy style is the "safest"
position during COVID. BIPOC pref. if poss.

I recently did a quote roundup of people who had sex with masks
on, and a few of them noted that they went for doggy style,
specifically because they each figured it's safer than
missionary in terms of breathing on each other.

-As an infectious disease doctor, is it correct that if you are
going to be having sex with someone you didn't quarantine with,
the safest sex position would be doggy style?

-Or is it a moot point because your cloud of breath vapor is
generally in the same space anyways? -What is the ideal safest
sex scenario for a new hookup? Doggy style, with masks on, in an
open field?

encouraged for the long-term, what are the potential lasting
implications of this on child development?

3.) How does the recent research (linked above) suggest pet
ownership could help?

4.) While the research focuses on toddlers, are the implications
for older children as well?

5.) What other benefits could pet ownership offer to children
all the time, but perhaps now especially?

6.) Are there benefits for parents as well?

7.) What should parents consider before running out and getting
a pet?

8.) Is there anything else you think our readers should know on
this subject?

Query:

Our Thought Leaders in Online Education (TLOE) blog is a
follow-up to our highly successful Thought Leaders series (TLBD,
TLCC, TLMS). In TLOE, we interview thought leaders in the
educational technology/online education sectors -- whether they
are entrepreneurs building great companies, product/user
experience designers building great products, deans at colleges
and universities, or executives at large companies with unique
perspectives on how the education industry is evolving. We
discuss trends, disruptions, entrepreneurial opportunities,
monetization models, challenges, socio-cultural impact and much
more in a seven-part series. This blog is part of the One
Million by One Million global initiative, whose aim is to help a
million entrepreneurs reach $1 million in annual revenue. 1M/1M
has syndication relationships with many venues: HBR, Xconomy,
SmallBizTrends, EconomicTimes (India), Women 2.0, Mashable,
Huffington Post, Business Insider, ReadWriteWeb, and several
other sites. Articles we develop through these interviews often
get repackaged for the syndication partners. The 1Mby1M blog was
named by Forbes in the Top 100 Blog for Entrepreneurs
(http://onforb.es/1a6RkOs) and among the top 100 influencers on
the topic of cloud computing. Sramana Mitra was also named as
one of the top 10 LinkedIn influencers of 2015
(https://goo.gl/AN9TjS). Indicate in your pitch the revenue
level, as we use this as a qualification criterion for selecting
entrepreneurs to profile. We don't necessarily have to publish
this number in the actual story. Our audience is extremely
sophisticated, so the conversation needs to be equally
interesting.

Deadline: 10:00 AM EST - 7 July

Query:

PUBLICATION: Red Diamonds Newsletter

The WHAT: A Short Conversation feature on "Lying to ourselves is
more deeply ingrained than lying to others." (Fyodor
Dostoyevsky), What's it mean to you, when it comes to your
character and reputation, whether that is just you personally or
you and your business/profession?

EXPLAINED: Two questions about the topic

WHAT I OFFER: I share your expertise and will link to your
professional profile.

REQUIRED: a photo, not too small, not too large, professional
and in focus to upload with the feature.

IDEAL SOURCES: Psychologists, Law Enforcement Professionals,
Executive Coaches, Talent Agents, ADR professional,
Entertainment Professionals, News Directors, Athletic Coaches

THE REALITY: I expect I will receive a strong response to this
query. I will only be able to choose one person of course for A
Short Conversation. I likely will consider the additional
excellent replies and place them in a Best Of feature (if you
are at peace with being included with other people). This
disappoints many people yet if you are ok with it, you could get
published. One more reality: I will not be able to include
everyone. I don't like it, that's the reality as a publisher.

RED DIAMONDS DETAILS: Launched in Sept. 2019 as a weekly
publication, on communication, decision making, behavior,
conflict, courage and resilience, professional relationships and
reputation and crisis. It is published on Medium and shared on
LinkedIn, Twitter and beBee.

1) Please write a tight paragraph with only the most pertinent
details about who you are professionally, as if we were chatting
at a social engagement and I asked, "what do you do?" No need

2) Please provide your initial impressions on the topic, in
response to the specific questions I asked. Please include the
quote in your reply and write in a focused, tight, concise way.

3) I thank you. :)

Name: David Roe CMSWire

Media Outlet: CMSWire

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 8 July

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.

Query:

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?

Media Outlet: Bankrate

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?

77) Summary: Need experts for story: Should you pay off your mortgage early or invest that $

Name: Erik Martin The Mortgage Reports

Category: General

Email: query-azuh@helpareporter.net

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?

Media Outlet: One Million by One Million

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 8 July

Query:

Hi, My name is Sheldon Chi. I am responsible for coordinating
stories for the 1Mby1M blog [1mby1m.com]]. I am looking to
interview entrepreneurs who are building cutting-edge
cybersecurity solutions for various segments of the market. I am
only interested in those who already have customers and at least
some revenue. The market, of course, is crowded, so we'd need to
understand what is unique, how you differentiate, etc. Pitching
Instructions: Please outline the specific story angle, value
proposition, target market, differentiation vis-a-vis
competitors, as well as revenue level and customer validation
situation. This blog is part of the One Million by One Million
global initiative, whose aim is to help a million entrepreneurs
reach $1 million in annual revenue (http://1mby1m.com). The
1M/1M blog is read by tons of VCs in the technology industry,
and the publicity we can create for you may very likely help you
attract investor attention if that's something you desire. Our
media work is aligned with our core mission of helping
entrepreneurs build successful companies. Also, 1M/1M has
syndication relationships with many venues: HBR, Xconomy,
SmallBizTrends, EconomicTimes (India), Women 2.0, Mashable,
Huffington Post, Business Insider, ReadWriteWeb, and several
other sites. Articles we develop through these interviews often
get repackaged for the syndication partners. The 1Mby1M blog was

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 8 July

Query:

For my Entrepreneur Journeys series, I'm looking for interesting
virtual companies in technology and technology-enabled services,
companies with at least $5 million in annual revenue. I'm
interested in interviewing the entrepreneur behind the company
who is willing to discuss the nuances of the strategy and
process of company building, spanning topics such as
bootstrapping, financing, positioning, customer acquisition,
channels, team building, etc. To pitch, provide revenue level,
industry and focus of the story angle in terms of
company-building experience. We use the revenue level as a
qualification criterion for selecting entrepreneurs to profile;
we don't necessarily have to publish this number in the actual
story. The Entrepreneur Journeys series has already produced 12
books (http://tinyurl.com/4p4phwy). See examples of the series
on my blog (http://tinyurl.com/d8m9mt). This blog is part of the
One Million by One Million global initiative, whose aim is to
help a million entrepreneurs reach $1 million in annual revenue.
We use the EJ interviews as case studies to teach other
entrepreneurs how to navigate the entrepreneurial waters. You
get publicity, as well as a platform to share your lessons from
the trenches with a large number of aspiring and practicing
entrepreneurs. 1M/1M has syndication relationships with many
venues: HBR, Xconomy, SmallBizTrends, EconomicTimes (India),
Women 2.0, Mashable, Huffington Post, Business Insider,
ReadWriteWeb, and several other sites. Articles often get
repackaged for the syndication partners. The 1Mby1M blog was
named by Forbes in the Top 100 Blog for Entrepreneurs
(http://onforb.es/1a6RkOs). I was also named as one of the top
10 LinkedIn influencers of 2015 (https://goo.gl/AN9TjS). The
procedure is to have a one-hour interview by phone or in-person
in my Menlo Park office. We publish a very long, detailed 5- to
10-part interview, so the discussion needs to be in-depth.

lands you were hoping to visit.

To have your U.S. destination considered, the following
information is required. Please submit in this format: 1. Name
of destination 2. What other COUNTRY it's reminiscent of (feel
free to specify a city, too) 3. WHY/HOW it's similar to that
foreign country/city (these details will be my deciding factor
for including your destination in this article) 4. Highlights of
what's special and what to see/do while visiting (keep pandemic
limitations in mind ... nobody is going to museums or dining
at restaurants, so focus mainly on outdoor activities and other
social-distanced options) 5. Provide a link to the destination
(if available on TripAdvisor, use that link; if not, use Airbnb,
CheapOAir, Expedia, Homeaway, Hotels.com, Orbitz, Priceline,
Travelocity, or VRBO). 6. Secondarily, you may link to the
destination's website

Requirements:

MUST be in the lower 48 U.S. states Follow the format above
