Thinking about moving? Consider cost of living carefully. As if

living in many cities continues to rise. Move.org compiled a
list of the 75 most populated American cities and ranked them
based on their cost-of-living (details at

cost-of-living continuing to rise in many cities/metropolitan

(per that same Move.org list)? Are you surprised that one or
more of these cities made the 10 least costly list? 5. What
should homeowners consider carefully before committing to a move
to a new city/state? What unexpected/overlooked costs need to be
taken into consideration? 6. What is a reasonable cost-of-living
you can expect to pay if you are considering a move? 7. Any
other thoughts, tips or suggestions on this topic? 8. What is

Name: Mark Ellwood New York Post - Real Estate

Category: General

Email: query-bnjs@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: New York Post - Real Estate

Deadline: 2:00 PM EST - 10 December

Query:

I'm working on a fun story, for the Christmas Eve issue of New
York Post Home, about chimneys, fireplaces and hearths.

Here's what we're looking to spotlight with the feature.

We want to identify the most Santarrific/Santa-ready luxury
developments in the Tri State area, with a focus on New York
City's boroughs.

In other words, what new developments have made fireplaces,
hearths and chimneys a focal point or feature of their
architecture? Perhaps there's a marble decorative hearth
specially included in every room, even though the building is a
cutting edge 21st century design? Or some townhouse-style homes
feature working chimneys with flues that can be left open or
closed as the owner wishes? Is a new development offering
ultra-luxury hearths as an optional upgrade for new buyers, and
if so, what are they like?

You get the idea.

Please send me a single para pitch, with the name of the
development, a hotlink to images and specs on what makes the
hearth, chimney or fireplace so luxurious and noteworthy.

As always, we're looking to feature some real life New Yorkers
who have recently bought a home and decorated it for the
holidays in one of these developments. Ideally, I'd like to
receive details on that homeowner in the initial pitch, but if
you don't have to hand, please be ready to source a customer who
fits that brief ASAP, if/when asked.

Requirements:

Please - No attachments; all emails with attachments will be
deleted unopened. Feel free to pass on this email to anyone who
might be able to offer useful input. Please mark the subject
line: CHIMNEYS & HEARTHS Reply directly to this email, rather
than emailing me via other methods. Just a gentle reminder that
following up is not necessary, and won't be acknowledged since I
receive so many pitches. Don't call or Tweet at me (email is
fine) - apologies in advance that I can't get back to everyone,
but will definitely be in touch if I need more info. I assure
you that I do read each and every pitch in full, as I respect
and appreciate the time anyone takes to put one together.

COVID19 disrupted all of our lives in many ways. One of the ways
it has changed our lives is the cessation of large, in person,
live events , and the transition to live virtual events.

But how does one run a successful live virtual event? An

separated and in their own homes?

We would like to interview successful leaders and event
organizers who can share the "5 Things You Need To Know To
Successfully Run a Live Virtual Event". We would like to talk to

look like the following:

Deadline: 12:00 PM EST - 9 December

Query:

Foxconn, a major manufacturer of tech devices, was recently hit
with a ransomware attack, with attackers demanding $34 million
from the huge company.

It's unclear at this point how Foxconn will respond.

My questions:

-- There seems to be a trend toward attacking these large OEMs.
Is this a concern?

-- Will this have an impact on Foxconn's tech company customers
or end customers?

-- What can companies do to better protect themselves against
ransomware attacks?

-- Is there a better way to deal with ransomware?
