7) Summary: How metaphorical gender relates to preferred pronouns

Name: Joseph Lamour Mic

Category: Biotech and Healthcare

Email: query-b71k@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: Mic

Deadline: 11:00 AM EST - 27 August

Query:

Seeking queer-experienced psychiatrists, psychologists and
therapists who can provide context for an article about how
humans metaphorically gender inanimate objects and food (like,
say, fruity drinks or whisky) and how that relates to society's
inherent difficulty gendering people respectfully by their
preferred pronouns.

The Questions: 1. Why do some people have trouble referring to
people according to their preferred pronouns (in regards to
allies who want to be respectful, and less so, people who cling
to the idea of a gender binary)? I thought it might be related
to the concept of metaphorical gender, but is it something else?
2. If it's not down to nature/science and the brain, but
cultural upbringing/nurture instead, could you expand on that?
3. I have a few non-binary friends, and initially I also had
trouble assigning they/them pronouns to them, much to my
constant mortification. Is my past trouble with this related to
how we learn pronoun usage in English-speaking countries? 4. A
non-binary friend suggested I could train my brain to think in a
less binary fashion by keeping focused on using they/them
instead of gendered pronouns, and eventually my brain would
switch over to using they/them pronouns naturally. Is this what
you would suggest to someone wanting to be a respectful ally to
non-cis folks, or would you suggest something else? 5. Do you
have anything else to add on this subject?

Requirements:

Looking for psychiatrists and therapists *with specific
queer/trans experience* who can provide commentary. Please,
respond to these questions in the initial email to be considered
as this is a tight deadline.

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 28 August

Query:

Face it. Most people in the job market are applying for,
interviewing with, and likely receiving offers from more than
one company. But how can/should they navigate this tricky
terrain when, for instance, they receive an offer from one
company but are still in the interview process for another -
more preferred - company? Should they let the company that made
the offer know they're in an interview process with another
firm? Why/why not? Should they let the company they're still
going through the interview process with know? Why/why not? How
should they broach the subject, if at all? Would knowing a top
candidate had an offer make you try to move through the process
more quickly? Or would it make you likely to cross that
candidate off your list? I'm interested in perspectives from
recruiters, HR professionals, hiring managers - and candidates
who have been in this situation.

Requirements:

I will not be conducting interviews for this piece. Please share
your/your source's detailed responses via email along with

Name: Judy Mandell the ny times

Category: General

Email: query-b70n@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: the ny times

Deadline: 8:00 PM EST - 26 August

Query:

I am proposing an article to the New York Times titled "Great
Advice That You Really Need If You're Applying To College During
the Covid-19 Pandemic - Admissions Officers Take Some of The
Stress Out Of The Application Process." Choosing a college has
always been a major decision. It can affect your career choice,
your income, where you live, your friends, and possibly your
mate.

But today, competition for admission to college, especially
during the Covid-19 pandemic, can be brutal.

I will ask admissions officers from a variety of colleges and
universities for tips to students and their parents in this time
of the corona virus. I will ask them to answers these
questions for starters.

How will applying to college be different than it was before the
Covid-19 pandemic?

Will it be more nerve wracking than ever?

What should applicants look for in a college, when many classes
are taught virtually? Many applicants who have been accepted
to college this year have taken a gap year. How will that
affect students applying this year? Some colleges are not
requiring SAT's or ACT's, but they are optional. Is it a good
idea for students to take these tests? Why or why not?

How will various colleges differ?

What are the most important things students should do when
applying to college so they won't freak out? How can parents,
grandparents, teachers, advisors lower the stress factor for
applicants?

How will admission officers make decisions when applicants are
similar in academic achievement, standardize test scores,
outside activities, geographic, ethnic, socio-economic
representation, parents/siblings who attended the college,
number of applicants from your high school?

72) Summary: Need experts for story: How to budget properly for a home improvement project

Name: Erik Martin CTW Features

Category: General

Email: query-b713@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: CTW Features

Deadline: 1:00 PM EST - 1 September

Query:

Hello. My name is Erik Martin and I am a reporter for HomeStyle,
a nationally syndicated home improvement/design section
published weekly in newspapers across the country (visit
https://tinyurl.com/ejmctwfeatures for samples). I'm looking to
interview interior designers, contractors, remodelers, financial
planners, and other real estate experts for the following story:

Have you budgeted properly for that forthcoming home improvement
project? Most homeowners haven't. Per a recent Modernize study
(https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/more-homeowners-than-ever-start-improvement-projects-without-budgeting-according-to-modernize-survey-301111845.html),
across all trades, 79% of homeowners do not create a budget for
their project. This is an increase from 75% in 2019 and was
highest among those considering a solar panel project, with 89%
reporting no up-front budget. Also, family and friends are less
often the primary source of budget assistance (32% in 2020 vs.
41% in 2019). About 30% use online tools and cost calculators.
After price, expertise is the most important factor in selecting
a contractor. Twenty-six percent (26%) reported expertise as a
critical factor in 2020, up from 19% in the 2019 survey. A
majority of homeowners (53%), across trades, spend 1-5 hours
researching their project before submitting a lead. This article
will share the report's highlights and provide tips and analyses
from experts as to why it's so important to budget ahead of time
and estimate costs properly before embarking on a home
improvement project. Below is a list of questions I'm seeking
answers to. I can only accept written responses via email. My
deadline is noon central, Tuesday, September 1, 2020.

QUESTIONS: 1. What did you find interesting, surprising, or
unexpected about any of the aforementioned study findings, and
why? 2. Why do you believe so many homeowners do not properly
create a budget for their home improvement project? What factors
are behind this trend? 3. Why is it so crucial for homeowners to
properly plan for the costs involved with a home improvement
project and budget properly ahead of time? 4. What detailed tips
can you suggest to ensure that a homeowner properly budgets for
a forthcoming home improvement project? What can/should they be
doing, especially to ensure an accurate price estimate? 5. Is it
normal/common for the final cost to exceed or even be less than
the estimate the homeowner budgeted? What tips can you provide
here in terms of building and some wiggle room in your estimate?
6. Any other thoughts, tips, or suggestions on this topic? 7.
What is your full name, title, company, city/state location, and
email address?

76) Summary: Seeking Entrepreneur Journeys

Name: Sheldon Chi One Million by One Million

Category: High Tech

Email: query-b6jw@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: One Million by One Million

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 28 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.
