Infectious disease drs on if "doggy style" is the "safest" sex
position during COVID. BIPOC women preferred if possible.
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 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?

I'm a regular here lately! (You are all awesome so thank you)
Both People with Diabetes and their loved ones are confused.
Does COVID19 diagnosis impact Type 1, Type 2, or both? In the
same way or differently?
Much of the confusion comes from the challenge of reporting from
the front line (and not always breaking down what type of
diabetes the person has). Much also comes from changes as we
learn.
The goal of this story is to explain WHY it can be confusing,
and what we actually do know now.
The goal is to help people know how to keep up to speed as we
learn, and understand why things seem confusing at times.
I also want to touch on the long-time push to track diabetes
cases better via CDC etc -- and if that lack of advanced
tracking has hurt our ability to learn a bit now.
Requirements:
I'd love a few sources (Boy am I greedy!)
-- A crackerjack Endo who can speak to COVID119 diagnosis
challenges in both T1D and T2D (or one of them)
--A front-line nurse, doctor, or the like who had treated
COVID19 patients with diabetes.
-- Someone involved in diabetes care or research who has been
pushing for better tracking of the diseases (yes, there are more
than two but for the most part fo this story I'm focusing on
those two)
PHEW that's a lot! Thank you all.

Deadline: 5:00 PM EST - 7 July
Query:
I will be addressing the following questions in my Careers Now
column for Tribune Publishing and welcome input!
1. A reader recently reached out asking if people who connect
with LinkedIn members really have found job opportunities that
way. "If they have, what did they write to introduce
themselves?" he asked. He's made a list of 50 companies he's
interested in working for. When he reached out to professionals
from those companies via LinkedIn, they responded to his
connection request. But when he asked if he could speak to them
by phone, the communication stopped. Any suggestions on how he
can boost his chances of connecting in a way that will lead to
an interview?
2. It's always a good idea to have a fall-back plan--and that
has never been more evident than during the COVID-19 pandemic.
What are some ways people can create a second revenue stream
that will help them bring in more cash--both during and after
this current crisis?
3. What will prospective employers find when they search for you
online? It's a question that's more important than ever as
businesses are forced to rely on the internet more than ever
during the coronavirus shutdown. What are some steps job seekers
can take to optimize their online profiles? Is it more than a
matter of updating a LinkedIn profile?
4. Communicating with members of your work team during the
pandemic has been a challenge-one that's been handled via Zoom
calls and other forms of online communication. But what about
working with outside clients you can't meet face to face? What
are some ways you can build relationships with prospective
clients and enhance existing relationships, too?

This 800-worrd article, aimed at owners and operators of
commercial real estate, will be an update in the latest trends
regarding electric vehicles. This would be a roundup of
highlights, such as policy/regulation, issues that might affect
EV adoption, and any interesting initiatives among commercial
real estate operators. What new twists have emerged so far in
2020?
The connecting thread in this seemingly wide-ranging topic is
what it means for the publication's audience of commercial real
estate operators. In other words, how the demand for EVs affects
things like providing dedicated parking spaces and charging
stations. What are the best practices for new development and
especially for existing properties? Are owners sufficiently
taking the EV movement into consideration? No need to force the
impact of COVID-19 into the discussion, but it is fodder for
discussion if sources bring it up.

Here is a brief show description of the video we are looking to
make:
We task a professional to take their real-world job skills and
literally scale down for an in-home demonstration. The
professional will give a brief description of their job, and
then will be challenged to replicate their profession using
common materials found in the home, explaining the process as
they go. For this episode, a civil engineer specializing in
bridges will be asked to build a miniature bridge, spanning the
counters of their kitchen, using materials such as straws,
uncooked spaghetti, duct tape, etc. As they accomplish this,
they'll explain principles such as the strength of triangles in
building, how they think about weight loads, how suspension
transfers energy from the bridge to the cables, etc.

Staying upbeat isn't inherently bad -- positivity can be a force
for good, especially right now when the pandemic is having a
widespread impact on our mental health. But "toxic positivity"
is something different -- it's insincere and it often leads to
harm, suffering or misunderstanding.
For this article, I'm looking for psychologists, psychiatrists
or mental health experts who can speak about toxic positivity
with authority.
If you're interested, please answer the following questions
below:
1. Briefly tell me about yourself and your qualifications as a
mental health expert.
2. How would you define "toxic positivity?"
3. How can a pressure to be positive and upbeat stifle
legitimate feelings and emotions, impacting one's mental health?
In other words, how can pressure to be "happy" and "upbeat"
worsen the effects of depression and other mental health issues?
Why is it okay to not feel "okay" sometimes?
4. Toxic positivity can also show up as a pressure to do a lot
e.g. write a book, cook, be the perfectly organized parent, live
a "perfect life" etc. and minimize legitimate hardships. How can
this pressure affect mental health?
5. How can social media amplify toxic positivity?
6. How can the pandemic worsen the impacts of toxic positivity?
7. What tips would you give someone to protect themselves from
toxic positivity?
8. What advice do you have for someone who is struggling to feel
positive during the pandemic to help them cope?
9. Is there anything else you want to add?

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, My name is Sheldon Chi. I am responsible for coordinating
stories for the 1Mby1M blog [1mby1m.com]]. The Entrepreneur
Journeys (EJ) series is our flagship series and we're looking
for interesting companies with at least $5 million in annual
revenue to feature in lengthy feature stories. We are interested
in interviewing the entrepreneur who can and is willing to
discuss, at length, 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, please provide revenue level, industry
(Our interests: E-Commerce, Cloud Computing, SaaS, Mobile,
Social, Big Data, IoT, FinTech, Digital Media, Gaming,
Healthcare IT, Online Education, etc.) 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). You can see examples of the series
on our 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 also 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 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). The
procedure is to have a one-hour interview by phone or in-person
in Menlo Park, at our office. We will provide the dial-in for
phone interviews, and the address for the in-person interviews.
Requirements:
When you send in your pitch, please be sure to include the
revenue level, as it is the primary criterion we use to select
stories. Unlike other entrepreneurship media, we do not look for
financing as a criterion for determining story worthiness. Also,
if your revenue threshold is below the $5M level currently, you
are welcome to email me, and I will check if your story might
fit in any of our other series. To give you a flavor, here are
some of our other ongoing series: The 1M/1M Deal Radar: Revenue
between $1M and $5M, high growth rate. We typically do email
interviews for this series. Thought Leader Interviews: We also
have Thought Leader Series opportunities in Cloud Computing,
Cyber Security, Mobile and Social, Big Data, Outsourcing, Online
Education, e-commerce, Gaming, Online Fashion, HealthcareIT,
Internet Of Things, etc. These require, however, that the
company has a minimum of $5M in revenue.

the topic of cloud computing. 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. Please also provide the story
angle, talking points, etc., so we can gauge what is the thought
leadership point of view we will be highlighting in the series.
Our audience is extremely sophisticated, so the conversation

An obsession with self-help can be counterproductive.
Self-help's promises of radical transformation can also lead us

this pattern in some way? We'd love to hear from you!
Requirements:
Looking for people with first-hand experience with this subject
matter and therapists or psychologists who can speak to the

Query:
During quarantine, I noticed my scent is different than it has
been out of quarantine. As someone who loves a scented candle
and a fruity lotion, this change was extremely perceptible to
me.
So, being a journalist, I did a little digging, and it turns out
there actually IS science to what I'm sensing:
https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/xgqeva/your-body-odor-might-change-in-coronavirus-quarantine
So, I need scientific experts: geneticists, nutritionists and
dermatologists that can offer evidence to me of the following:
Does isolating and staying put change the way we smell? Is
occupying the same space more than usual that is causing bodies
like mine to change physically (as in our microbiome and other
environmental factors that contribute to our body odors), or is
it more that we're interacting with less people? Is there any
way, short of waiting for quarantine to be over to resume my
natural routine, that I can do to improve my natural smell?
I strongly emphasise that I will not making product suggestions
by brand name, and this is more a general "our bodies could be
changing in quarantine, so here's some tips for changing your
microbiome" type of article.
Requirements:
I need scientific experts: geneticists, nutritionists (who
specifically know about this type of thing) and dermatologists
that can offer scientifically backed evidence and sage advice.

Good morning, Haro!
I'm reaching out with a potential interview opp for
nutritionists and holistic health experts! There's a new
platform ~in the works~ called "The Unwinder" (LINK:
https://the-unwinder.com/) which is planning to be a health and
wellness go-to site.
For them I'm working on a piece about collagen protein, collagen
supplements, the benefits of collagen. And I'd love to interview
a naturopath/nutritionist/holistic health expert for the piece
about whether or not topical or ingestible collagen actually has
any benefits! Take a peak at my specific questions and let me
know if you're interested in answering some or all of them :).
The Unwinder Collagen 101 QUESTIONS 1. First off, what the heck
is collagen?? 2. Is there a difference between bovine collagen,
marine collagen, and vegan collagen? Is one better than others
for different things? 3. Umm so why do we need to
supplement/consume collagen? (Would love an expert to explain
it's benefits and/or the fact that the body starts producing
less and less!) 4. Super science-y question for you coming up:
Is collagen in any form even bioavailable? In other words, is
collagen a gimmick? Or can it actually get broken down into
individual amino acids during digestion?? 5. Does collagen
actually DO anything for our muscles or wrinkles??? Can it
really help folks with joint issues? 6. Anything else you think
folks should know about collagen and how it supports health and
wellness?

I'm writing an article on the fun of using sidewalk chalk /
benefits of play as an adult, and am looking for both
psychologists and sidewalk chalk artists / experts to share
insights on:
--why sidewalk chalk is having such a moment with adults
--what play is, exactly, and why / how we lose our connection to
it as adults (especially natural play, where there are no rules)
--physical + mental health benefits of natural play / acting
like a kid, and the mechanism behind how each benefit transpires
--the power of doing something expressive / creative that can't
be turned into a side hustle or used as a toxic way to measure
our self-worth
--how to get past the stigma of playing as an adult (say, the
self-consciousness that might bubble to the surface because of
how public an activity sidewalk art is)
--how to get past the discomfort that might come from the fact
that natural play has no rules
--the therapeutic element of sidewalk chalk eventually washing
away
--how to use sidewalk chalk to brighten your life (supplies
you'll need and ways to use it--cheering up a friend or family
member, intricate drawings for mindfulness, drawing daily
mantras, tutorials that would make cheerful / cute photo opps,
games for adults, getting your friends / family in on the
action, etc.)
Not looking to interview anyone today, just lock down sources.

share insights on:
--why certain people find socializing more difficult (or
straight-up excruciating) than others--whether related to social
anxiety, shyness, being highly sensitive or an introvert, or not
finding socializing as intrinsically rewarding as you're
"supposed" to
--how the lockdown has provided relief from the social customs
that many people find uncomfortable, anxiety-inducing, or
annoying, and now they don't want to go back to having to go
through them again
--how some people have enjoyed the time to themselves and feel
more free to be exactly who they are instead of an edited version
--that just because the lockdown will eventually be over doesn't
mean we have to go back to how our social lives used to be
--a step-by-step approach to defining and executing a social
life that works for you instead of everyone else or society at
large, and the mechanism behind what makes each step so effective
