1) Summary: Managing Ongoing Stress During a Pandemic: Advice for Nurses and Other Healthcare ProfessionalsName: Jennifer Larson TravelNursing.com
Category: Biotech and HealthcareEmail: query-b6e2@helpareporter.net
Media Outlet: TravelNursing.com
Deadline: 1:00 PM EST - 26 August
Query:
The COVID-19 pandemic continues marching forward. Nurses and
other healthcare professionals keep showing up at work and doing
their jobs to the absolute best of their abilities.
But more than five months into the pandemic, a lot of these
dedicated healthcare professionals are feeling the weight of the
stress that they've been carrying around. And who could blame
them?
For an article for TravelNursing.com and for the news blog of
its sister website Onward Health (see:
https://www.onwardhealthcare.com/nursing-resources/?catg=news),
I am writing an article that will focus on effective stress
management and coping skills for nurses.
I'm looking for healthcare professionals and mental health
experts who can weigh in with some good advice for our nurse
readers.
We want to discuss the WHY and the HOW: why should nurses
prioritize developing some good stress management strategies
that work for them and how can they go about doing that? How
can they figure out what will work for them? What are they
risking if they don't address their stress levels? Does the
fact that we don't know when the pandemic will end have any kind
of particular effect that we should note? And what if they're
working away from home on a travel assignment--what can they do
to help themselves manage their stress when they're away from
home and their usual support system?
Requirements:
Please contact me through HARO or via email at
larson_jennifer@yahoo.com if you're available and willing to
field these questions--and maybe a few more. I do have to wrap
up my research by Wednesday, August 26, and I apologize for a
short turnaround. Thanks for your time and consideration!

I'm working on an article titled "How to Vote Safely in Person
During COVID-19."
Although the safest option (and the one we're encouraging) is
voting by mail, realistically many voters won't receive their
ballots in time etc. So although our recommendation would be to
vote by mail, we recognize that many people will need to vote in
person or not at all. I'm looking to compile 5-10 safety tips,
precautions that people should take, etc, in order to make
voting in person as safe as possible.
Requirements:

about how to vote in person in the safest manner possible.

High Tech
46) Summary: Seeking Entrepreneur JourneysName: Sheldon Chi One Million by One Million
Category: High TechEmail: query-b6jo@helpareporter.net
Media Outlet: One Million by One Million
Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 25 August
Query:
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.

Our Thought Leaders in Artificial Intelligence (TLAI) blog is a
follow-up to our highly successful Thought Leaders in Cloud
Computing (TLCC) (http://www.sramanamitra.com/big-data/) series.
In TLAI, we interview thought leaders in the artificial
intelligence sectors -- whether they are entrepreneurs building
great companies, product/user experience designers building
great products, or executives at large companies with unique
perspectives on how the industry is evolving. We discuss trends,
disruptions, entrepreneurial opportunities, monetization models,
challenges, socio-cultural impact and much more in a seven-part
series. Of particular interest to us is the use of machine
learning techniques in scaling analytics models within Big Data.
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. 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
needs to be equally interesting. Sramana Mitra was also named as
one of the top 10 LinkedIn influencers of 2015
(https://goo.gl/AN9TjS).

Deadline: 10:00 PM EST - 24 August
Query:
I'm working on an article about voter suppression, with a focus
on how the 2020 election could be affected by voter suppression,
and in what ways the results could influence policy related to
suppression down the line. I'd also like to touch on a few
action items, things readers could do to help fight and/or raise
awareness about voter suppression. My main questions are below:
-- How exactly does voter suppression work (i.e. what tactics
are used to prevent people from voting)?
-- Which demographics are most likely to be affected by voter
suppression?
-- Why do certain politicians want to suppress the vote?
-- How could the 2020 election in particular be affected by
voter suppression? What are some recent examples of efforts to
suppress the vote?
-- How could the 2020 election results influence policy related
to voter suppression down the line?
Requirements:
Experts in voter suppression. Please include a brief description
of your experience studying voter suppression or working for an
organization that aims to dismantle it.
*NOTE: Because my deadline is Wednesday, I'd need an expert who
is available for a phone call on Tuesday (my schedule is
currently wide open that day) or can send over detailed
responses via email by EOD Tuesday.

Query:
I'm researching a story about the use of wheel clamps and other
vehicle restraining devices, such as barnacles. The 2020 summer
vacation season is almost over. Most travelers drove to their
destinations, and an increasing number of them faced these wheel
clamps and restraining devices when they had a parking
violation. I would love to hear from anyone who found a Denver
Boot or Barnacle on their car this summer. What happened? How
much did it cost? Did you pay the fine or fight it? From parking
enforcement experts and travel pros, I'd like to know: Are these
devices being used more often? If so, why? What, if anything,
can travelers do to avoid these devices (other than parking
legally)?

Query:
I'm researching a story about how 2020 is a "lost" year for
travelers. I have two questions for travelers: What did you
lose, in terms of travel? What kind of vacations or trips have
you given up to stay safe? And second, how are you making up for
it next year? Are you going somewhere special -- taking a
bucket-list trip? I'm also very interested in hearing from
travel experts on this topic. Are there any surveys or polls
that have measured the loss? In your estimation, how much has
been lost? How would you categorize the loss? Are there any
surveys that measure the potential rebound in '21? Are travelers
thinking of 2021 as a make-up year for vacations? If so, what
are they doing?

Query:
I'm working on a story about "build your own" travel insurance
-- adding components of coverage to your insurance that you
need. Have you ever built your own travel insurance policy with
a company like Amex? How did it work? Did you save money? Did
you get the coverage you needed in the end? From travel
insurance experts, I'd love to know: How does build your own
travel insurance work? How is it different from the travel
insurance you would normally find online? What should people
know before they build their own policy? Is it really less
expensive than a regular policy?

Query:
For a UK newspaper round-up I'm looking for compelling examples
of hotels injecting their facemasks with brand personality.
Think: Artist collaborations, special fabrics/materials, charity
projects, etc.
Please send me a line or two on why the face mask is so unique,
as well as a visual of the mask, if available.
(if we've already been in touch about this via a previous query
- no need to respond, I've already shortlisted your answers.)
Requirements:
Please only reply if: - You represent a hotel - Masks are
complimentary for guests (OR proceeds of purchase go to charity)
- The masks are unique, eg. not just a hotel logo on a standard
mask.
