1) Summary: How to break up with a friend?Name: Anna Fonte The Maven
Category: GeneralEmail: query-bj45@helpareporter.net
Media Outlet: The Maven
Deadline: 7:00 PM PST - 25 November
Query:
Lots has been said about the end of romantic relationships, but
not so much about friendships. We'd like to know not only what
the most common valid reasons are for ending a friendship, but
also how a person might "break up" with a friend in the
healthiest way possible. What advice do you have for people who
are hoping to break it off cleanly with someone who used to be a
close friend? What, in your experience, is a valid reason (or an
invalid one) for doing so?
Requirements:
I need experts to weigh in on this one: psychologists,
therapists, and counselors who have firsthand experience dealing
with this subject. Please include a brief bio that explains your
expertise.

Media Outlet: AARP The Magazine
Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 20 November
Query:
This is for AARP Magazine. I need MDs, medical specialists,
sleep experts, audiologists, RDs, Dietitians, therapists, etc.
(no naturopaths). I am working on a story for AARP on
"Surprising things you are doing in your day that can increase
your risk of heart disease." I would love experts to submit via
email (super tight deadline here I know) some blurbs on some out
of the box things that can cause heart disease. The idea is to
walk people through things they could be doing each day that
could be harming their cardiovascular health and leading to an
increase in them developing heart disease. Each tip will be it's
own paragraph so I will need to know:
1. The tip
2. Why this can lead to heart disease + a study to back it up
that we can link to in the article.
3. Plus some expert tips on how to troubleshoot these.
Here are the areas I am focusing on for the story that I would
love some blurbs on.
* An alarm clock woke you up (you're over or under sleeping)
* You didn't floss after breakfast (bad dental hygiene)
* You got stuck in a traffic jam on the way to work -- you
have a long commute (sitting for a long time + traffic noise
studies linked to heart disease)
* You didn't plug your ears when a fire truck went by with its
siren on (loud noise linked to an increase in hearing loss,
which can lead to an increased risk of heart disease).
* You have a stressful working situation/bad boss - work
stress linked to heart disease
* You went for yet another long run (importance of mixing in
resistance training and variety)
* You didn't get a flu shot. One study says even having gotten
it 6 times boosts your risk according to one study (get a flu
shot)
* You let a former rival live rent-free in your head
(unresolved anger or trauma has been linked to an increase in
heart disease)
* You ordered the steak (next time have the fish- study linked
red meat to heart disease and omega 3s from fish to lowering the
risk)
* You had a side of onion rings (one study said eating fried
food once a week can increase your risk)
* You blew off your flu shot
* You drank a diet soda with dinner (diet soda linked to heart
disease)
* you're breathing in polluted air particles (sleeping with
windows open and smog, driving with windows open, not using an
air filter) - air pollution linked to heart disease
* you didn't connect with your social network all day -
loneliness linked to heart disease risk
Also let me know your full name, title, location, and link to
your professional website.
Thanks in advance!
