Deadline: 5:00 PM PST - 23 November
Query:
Several construction projects that were already underway have
gone dark due to the uncertainty created by the COVID-19
pandemic. Now that we have promising preliminary results about
vaccines, what will the path forward be for getting projects off
the ground again? What are the impacts of shutting a project
down in the first place? Once you stop construction mid-stride,
what are the hurdles to getting it started again? How hard is it
to get the workers you had on the project back onsite? What
about scheduling conflicts if those subs have booked other jobs?
What about the financing that is funding the project? What is
the risk, once a project shuts down, that it may never get
started back up again? What are the best practices for making
sure that a project that is stopped eventually resumes? Are
there any other aspects of this topic you'd like to highlight?
I'd like to hear from construction professionals about the
implications of stopping a project that's already started, and
the best ways to get work started again once it has stopped.

Query:
Hello. My name is Erik Martin, and I am a reporter for Real
Estate Weekly, a nationally syndicated section published weekly
in newspapers across the country (visit
tinyurl.com/ejmctwfeatures for samples). I'm looking to
interview real estate agents, real estate faculty, housing/real
estate industry spokespersons, low-income housing experts,
attorneys, and other real estate experts for the following story:
Fewer suburbanites oppose low-income housing than you may think.
According to a new Redfin study (details at
https://www.redfin.com/news/suburban-urban-low-income-housing-survey/),
while people who live in rural and suburban areas are more
likely to oppose low-income housing in their neighborhood than
city dwellers, less than half of people from each neighborhood
type are opposed: Forty-five percent of rural residents and 44%
of suburban residents oppose low-income housing, versus 31% of
people who live in the city. Rural and suburban residents are
also more likely than city residents to oppose nearly every
other building type in their neighborhood. This piece will
summarize the significant findings and include analysis from
experts as to why, apparently, low-income housing may be more
tolerated than many people think. I can only accept written
responses (full-sentences that I can use as quotes) via email to
the following questions. My deadline is noon central, Monday,
November 23, 2020.
QUESTIONS: 1. What did you find interesting or surprising about
the aforementioned study results and why? 2. Why do you believe
more people from the suburbs and rural areas are more likely to
oppose low-income housing in their neighborhood than city
dwellers? What factors are behind this trend? 3. What do you
predict looking ahead to the near-and long-term: Will we see
more low-income housing being built in city, suburban, and rural
areas? Why/why not? 4. Do you believe there is a lot of
misinformation about low-income housing that those opposed to it
might be surprised by? Do you have any statistics you can cite
that demonstrate how low-income housing doesn't necessarily
negatively affect a neighborhood? 5. Any other thoughts, tips or
suggestions on this topic? 6. What is your full name, title,
company, city/state location, and email address?

What are the best body-safe materials that clit toys should be
made from?
As far as silicone clit toys go, is there a big difference
between food-grade and medical grade silicone - or is "body
safe" silicone good enough?
Are there materials that should be avoided when selecting a clit
sex toy?
Additionally, do you have any advice to offer to people who
haven't used a clit sucking toy before but would like to? What
should they look for in a toy of this nature?
Is there potential for desensitization from overuse of these
toys?

Query:
There's a new cosmetic treatment that's emerging as a new
must-have: hyperbaric chambers. These have been co-opted by
South American surgeons to install them in their offices, to
help with post-op recovery. The theory: if you have 1000 times
more oxygen going to the area that needs to be healed, you
should theoretically heal 1000 times faster. He called it "like
a magic eraser" for wounds. Some surgeons are now even
counseling wealthy clients to install them at home - as
rejuvenation chambers. Likely to gain traction, of course, in a
post-COVID world where the emphasis on privacy will be
paramount, and spas are going to be both logistically and
psychologically complex. Compare that with the de facto Botox
rooms some people have installed in their Hamptons summer homes
- a place to have a quick fill and jab in a sterile, comfy
environment before a big weekend of benefits (well, when they
happened). I want to hear from interior designers who have
worked on projects with beauty rooms, especially ones that
include hyperbaric chambers or other expensive, unique
technology; home owners who have installed such elaborate Glam
Squad rooms in their houses and surgeons who have consulted on
installing such equipment at home. I'd also like to hear from
scientists with expertise in the anti-aging field who have
conducted any experiments on the efficacy (or not) of hyperbaric
chambers for this purpose. Please note: I am not looking for
surgeons who have the equipment at their consulting rooms or in
offices, but rather specifically for residential usage.
Requirements:
Please mark subject line: HYPERBARIC AT HOME No attachments,
please - all emails with attachments will be deleted unopened.
Please reply directly to this email rather than emailing me via
other methods. I am happy for respondents to remain anonymous,
or pseudonymous, but we will likely need images of projects we
cite.
