Hi I'm working on a story about aging in place for the Las Vegas
Review Journal, Southern Nevada's major daily.

With so many snowbirds moving back to their second homes in the

needs as they age? The story focuses on adjustments you can make
to your home that suit your changing physical needs while also
still maintaining decent aesthetics.

Ideally, if I could get two sources who are interior designers
that can speak to the topic, that would be great. Ideally, if at
least one is located in Las Vegas or at least the Southwest,
that would be preferred. Not a necessity, but the publication
does like at least one of the sources to be local, if possible.
But we do still use our share of California and AZ sources too.

Name: Amy George BAI

Category: General

Email: query-bbwy@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: BAI

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 7 October

Query:

Given the competitive nature of the financial services business,
rising up through the ranks is a challenge for pretty much
anyone. Diversity within banks and credit unions tends to be
concentrated in more junior positions, so how can these FIs
create better pipelines to achieve more DEI in their leadership
ranks?

Looking for mix of bankers and outside observers/thinkers as
sources.

Some initial questions:

How are future FI leaders identified and positioned to climb?
And how much is DEI considered in that process? Is that
changing, and if so, in what ways? What are the big challenges
in creating these upward pipelines? How competitive is the
market for top talent from underrepresented groups? Most of the
focus now is on race, but what about women? LGBT+? Disabled?
Veterans?

Requirements:

Looking for bankers, financial services professionals and
industry consultants/experts. US-BASED ONLY. Provide a response
along with your name, title, and company name and URL. If you
are a PR pro answering on behalf of a client, make it clear as
to whom the source is -- name, title, company name and URL.

Query:

My next column is looking to provide readers with some guidance
on retail holiday trends for 2020, as well as advice on how to
make gift returns. I'm specifically looking for consumer experts
to answer the following:

1. In 2020, if you are looking to return a holiday gift, when is
the best time (either weekday or time of day) to go to avoid
crowds? What are some non-COVID reasons it's good to avoid
crowds--are you more likely to get better customer service
and/or have an easier time making a difficult return (say, a
return without a receipt)?

2. Are retailers expected to do anything different this year for
the holiday gift return season due to COVID? If so, what is
expected? Will hours be extended or further cut back? Will
online returns be made easier or more cumbersome, and if the
latter, what can a consumer do to work around any new
challenges?

3. Are any retailers expecting to be more lenient with their
return time limit policies this year? If so, which retailers and
any details on their extensions?

4. Which stores will give you cash in exchange for a returned
gift card (and what percentage cash will they give you?)

5. If a store won't let you return a gift card, can you just buy
an item at that store for the full amount and then return the
item?

Requirements:

Anyone with expertise in the world of retail, buying or consumer
trends.

fastest, but what if you think the cheapest price is

Name: Erik Martin Speech Technology Magazine

Category: General

Email: query-bcmx@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: Speech Technology Magazine

Deadline: 1:00 PM EST - 8 October

Query:

My name is Erik Martin and I am a freelance writer for Speech
Technology Magazine (www.speechtechmag.com). I'm looking to
interview speech technology experts, voice-based information
companies, artificial intelligence experts, regulatory experts,
and other related professionals for the following story topic:

The Regulatory Landscape for Data-Driven Voice Solutions. This
article will explore how new government regulations, like the
European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and
the California Consumer Protection Act (CCPA), and others will
affect what voice-based information companies (companies whose
solutions allow businesses to collect and store voice data, like
voiceprints used for customer identity verification, etc.) can
collect, how they can use it, what they can do with it, how they
can store it, and what they need to do to protect it.

Below is a list of questions I'm seeking answers to for this
story. I can only conduct email interviews, whereby you or your
suggested sources types up written responses to my questions
below that I can use as quotes in my story (that's also often
easier and ensures no accidental misquoting). My deadline is
Thursday, October 8, before noon central. Please e-mail me back
your interest and availability or your typed up answers to these
questions:

QUESTIONS 1. Overall, how would you summarize and describe the
state of government regulation - particularly in the United
States - when it comes to data collected, used, and stored by
voice-based information companies? 2. Can you please trace the
timeline/evolution of regulations in this space? 3. Please
explain what new/recent government regulations are in effect or
have been proposed that are significant and designed to affect
what voice-based information companies can collect, use, store,
and protect data (e.g., GDPR, CCPA, etc.). 4. Do you believe
it's important that state/national governments get involved in
this issue and enforce more regulations on speech data
companies? Why/why not? 5. What effect can/will these
regulations have on what speech data companies can collect and
what they can do with the data? 6. What unique threats might
speech data be subject to that would necessitate greater
regulation? Please provide one or more examples. 7. What steps
should voice-based information companies be taking to prevent
these threats/risks? Please provide details and specific
recommendations (e.g., Requirements around how customers should
be notified that their voice may be recorded, etc.). 8. Are
there any potential risks of over-regulation, which could for
example stifle speech tech innovation or the ability for these
voice-based information companies to sufficiently conduct
business? 9. Can you also suggest one or more other experts I
should try to interview for this story (if so, please provide
contact information)? 10. Any other tips, thoughts, comments or
ideas on this topic you'd like to add? 11. What is your full
name, title, company, and city/state headquarters?
