Deadline: 9:00 AM EST - 18 November
Query:
Discuss how/if families from popular holiday movies (Home
Alone, It's A Wonderful Life, A Christmas Story) could get their
homes insured for the holidays, and if insurance companies would
even consider doing so given the hi-jinks they get into! So for
instance, in a Christmas Story, examine one of the scenes, like
where the neighbor's dogs run through the living room on
Christmas and wreak havoc in the kitchen! Would that be covered
under home insurance? What about the Christmas tree burning
down or the explosion (at the end of the movie) in National
Lampoon's Christmas? You can pick any relevant examples for the
other movies.
Do you need special insurance for the holidays (i.e. for
decorations, family parties, etc.)? What does most homeowners
insurance cover in regards to holiday incidents? Are fires
covered from Christmas trees, Hanukkah candles, holiday lights,
etc.? What about incidents with fireplaces or while cooking?
Requirements:
You must be a trustworthy authority on the subject based on
experience, education, and/or institutional affiliation.

Query:
For the Content Marketing Institute's "Articles" page
(https://contentmarketinginstitute.com/blog/), would like short
(one paragraph) input from content pros/content marketers on
"What COVID Taught Me about Content." Would like a mix of best
practices/advice/observations (but just one tip per quoted
professional/expert) that is COVID-related when it comes to
content storytelling, client relations, SEO/metrics, connecting
to target audiences, messaging, etc. Example I'll use for my own
input: "My agency's clients are being very considerate about
approaching the topic in a sensitive, tasteful manner. They seek
content that explains how they can solve organizations'
post-pandemic problems. But they don't want to come across as
exploitive of the situation or otherwise "ambulance chasing."
It's a fine line to walk. But I've found that the time-tested
lessons still apply here: Focus on results-based, good
storytelling. Present the client as a helpful resource in a time
of need, as opposed to being self-promotional about products and
services." (This was less than 100 words ... Probably best for
all responses to be less than 100 words.) Please include your
name, title, organization and preferred link. For every expert
quoted, I will provide full identification and a link in this

new investors with the information they need to differentiate

their knowledge of the stock market, and the investing process
as a whole. With a working knowledge of each market, investors
will be able to make more informed investment decisions.
I am looking for an expert's opinion on a number of topics: How
can new investors participate in the primary market? Are
institutional investors the only ones with access to the primary
market? What are the benefits of investing in the primary
market? When do investors invest in the primary market? How long
does it take for a company's shares to hit the secondary market?

on the subject of primary and secondary markets. Any advice you

Deadline: 1:00 PM EST - 18 November
Query:
Some say a little white lie on your resume may not hurt. But
many experts say lying about knowledge on specific programs or
tools that a company is asking for is the worst thing to lie
about on your resume. Why is this? Why can't you fake knowledge
for a program/tool? Why/How might your hirers/employers find out
you are lying? How do hirers/employers feel about people who lie
on their resume? Could it affect the company if they were to
hire you? For instance, may they have to shell out money for
training that they weren't planing to? Why else is it a bad idea
to lie about? And what would you consider bad things to lie
about on your resume?
Requirements:
Looking for hiring experts, resume experts, business experts,
etc. Please specify why you have expert knowledge on this topic
in your response!

Hello. My name is Erik Martin with The Mortgage Reports website

inspection professionals, real estate attorneys, real estate
faculty, and other real estate experts for the following story:
Should you wave a home inspection? This article will examine the
pros and cons of waving a home inspection as a homebuyer. 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 2 PM central, Thursday, November

professional home inspection done if you are considering a home
purchase? What are the benefits of having a pro inspect this
home? 2. Under what circumstances would a prospective buyer even
want to waive a professional home inspection rush to Mark 3.
What are the risks of skipping a professional home inspection?
4. What is a home inspection contingency? Can/should you wave
this contingency, and if so under what circumstances? 5. Is it
possible to waive a home inspection, especially if you are in a
bidding war or eager to purchase a home that has a lot of
competitors vying for it? Will a mortgage lender allow this? 6.
Is it possible to get your offer accepted without waving a home
inspection? What alternatives can buyers pursue here? 7. Any
other thoughts, tips, or suggestions on this topic? 8. What is
your full name, title, company, city/state location, and email

martinspiration.com), writer with Insurance.com. I'm looking to
interview insurance industry experts, health insurance
professionals, hospital spokespersons, medical school
spokespersons, donor and transplant program experts, and other
related experts for the following story:
What are your body parts worth? This article will update a
previous story written five years ago (visit

Below is a list of questions I'm seeking answers to. I can only

QUESTIONS: 1. Overall, our different body parts worth a lot more
than people may realize, especially as determined by insurance

in today's dollars? (According to a 2005 study, the entire body
was worth $45 million at that time). Please cite any sources you
mention. 3. What specific body parts are worth the most money,
either to an insurance company or a hospital (e.g., bone marrow,
DNA, kidney, heart, eyes, hands, feet, etc.)? 4. What did these
values actually mean? Is this, for example, what an insurance
company would pay out on a claim for the loss of this body part?
Is this value what that body part is worth to a hospital
transplant or donor program? 5. Please explain how it's possible
to ensure one or more various body parts (e.g., Lloyd's of
London offers policies to ensure your nose, eyes, legs, etc.)
and what some of these policies may cost and pay out if there is
a claim. Which companies in particular offer these types of
specialty policies, and what are their premium costs as well as
coverage payout limits? 6. What does an accidental death &
dismemberment policy payout if you suffer the loss of one or
more body parts, in general? Which body parts today typically
cover? How can a person be eligible for a claim with an
accidental death & dismemberment policy? 7. Any other thoughts,
tips, or suggestions on this topic? 8. What is your full name,
title, company, city/state location, and email address?

Query:
Hello,
I hope you're well! I am looking to interview a sleep expert for
an upcoming print feature in Prevention magazine. In particular,
I am looking to know: 1. How many people are suffering from
sleep problems? Why is it bad to get poor sleep? 2. How
important is it to get good sleep and why? 3. How many
minutes/hours before bed should people stop scrolling through
social media (Facebook, for instance)? How may overstimulation
through social media before bed impact one's sleep negatively?
How does stimulation through social media affect the brain
before bed? Does the blue light from technology before bed have
an effect on sleep quality? What are some ways to avoid
overstimulation before bed to transition into sleep? 4. Besides
reducing stress, how can meditation help someone transition to
sleep? Please be specific and include science-backed reasons. If
someone falls asleep while meditating, is this OK? Is this a
better way to fall asleep then if someone fell asleep while
doing something else?
Thanks! Nicol

The pandemic has dominated much of the news cycle and parents
have adjusted work schedules to accommodate children and their
school work. Of course, there have been pockets of difficulties,
juggling multiple roles, and sacrificing of normalcy. But the
pandemic has also taught so many to adapt and become resilient.
I'd like to talk to families about gratitude and what the
pandemic has taught them in this tumultuous season.
Also, would like a gratitude expert to chime in if that is
possible.
