Query:
As employees' desires and demands evolve, it can be challenging
for companies to keep up. With the holidays over, and we
approach the season of reflection, let's take a look at what
gifts and perks are really making the mark with employees. From
an employee perspective, I would love to hear:
What is the best gift you've ever received from a boss/company?
What is something surprising or special your employer has done
or said that has meant a lot to you, beyond common benefits like
days off and competitive pay? Like giving all employees doordash
gift cards for Friday night dinners at home. Why do you think
it's important for employers to listen to what their employees
really want and need rather than send a generic gift?
Requirements:
I would love answers from 1. An employee perspective 2. OR an
HR/leader POV on what they have seen and heard really work /
anecdotes.

Hi--in light of Amazon's announcement it bought 11 planes from

this is a sign to things to come. I wrote last year about how
Amazon was one of the few companies in a position to scoop up
empty real estate vacated by retailers/restaurants that closed
as a result of the pandemic--and with the travel industry's
well-documented woes in the last year, I'm wondering if there's
a similar story in potential for Amazon to build out Amazon Air

Wondering if you have a well-known celebrity to put forward for
the Me and My Money interview in the Mail on Sunday this month?
(By well-known celebrity, I mean a household name everyone in
the UK has heard of. I will not respond to emails putting
forward anyone else so please don't waste your time!)
It will take 20 minutes over the phone whenever is convenient.
In case you are unfamiliar with the Me & My Money slot, it is
a huge interview displayed prominently in the Money section with
a large photo and plenty of space to devote to whatever you
would like to promote.
There is also a lot of scope to mention a charity in response to
the question 'Do you think it's important to donate to
charity?'. Here are some examples of the slot:
http://www.thisismoney.co.uk/home/search.html?s=&authornamef=Donna+Ferguson+For+Mail+On+Sunday
Questions are below for reference but answers must be given over
the phone: What did your parents teach you about money? What was
the first paid work you ever did? Have you ever struggled to
make ends meet? Have you ever been paid silly money? What was
the best year of your financial life? What is the most expensive
thing you bought for fun? What is your biggest money mistake?
The best money decision you have made? Do you save into a
pension or invest in the stock market? Do you own any property?
What is the one little luxury you treat yourself to? If you were

Deadline: 12:00 PM EST - 8 January
Query:
We are doing a story about how to handle when your child says
something potentially embarrassing, inappropriate, or even
offensive to someone else, typically regarding their appearance
or by their behavior.
As a parent, what do you do or say? What could be considered
appropriate, or offensive? How do we teach kids about these
lessons without making kids feel self conscious about their own
appearance or actions? What do you do if your child comments on
someone's appearance (like their shape/size/skin tone), or that
they are in a wheelchair or might have a birthmark?
Or what if they witness a child with autism who is stimming. If
a child witnesses something like that, they might make a comment
or want an answer on the spot. How do you handle that without
making them feel guilty for being curious and asking questions?
Please send your responses to jennifer@celebrityparentsmag.com
with the subject line Curious Child. Please include your title
and link to your site. Thank you!

According to a new review in the Journal of Contextual
Behavioral Science, the most important factor for happy
relationships boils down to just one characteristic --
psychological flexibility.
The British Psychological Society's Research Digest blog
explains that a psychologically flexible person characterized
"by a set of attitudes and skills: they are generally open to
and accepting of experiences, whether they are good or bad; they
try to be mindfully aware of the present moment; they experience
difficult thoughts without ruminating on them; they seek to
maintain a broader perspective when faced with a challenge; they
continue to pursue important goals despite setbacks; and they
maintain contact with 'deeper values,' no matter how stressful a
day might be
I'd like to hear from some psychologists and therapists who can
talk about these findings, what psychological flexibility is,
and offer a few real-life examples of what it looks like.

Public Policy and Government
75) Summary: Inquiry re: DC police arresting people on minor crimes yesterday while making few arrests at CapitolName: Connor Sheets The Birmingham News
Category: Public Policy and GovernmentEmail: query-br8q@helpareporter.net
Media Outlet: The Birmingham News
Deadline: 2:00 PM EST - 7 January
Query:
Hello, I'm hoping to speak with professors, lawyers or advocates
about the police response to the unrest in D.C. yesterday.
I've pulled D.C. superior court records online and found that
police arrested people across the district yesterday for a range
of crimes, including some relatively minor ones like stealing
T-shirts and possessing drugs.
At the same time the Metro Police said that there were only 52
arrests related to the unrest near the Capitol yesterday and 47
of those were for curfew violations.
I'm looking to understand what it means that the police arrested
people on such minor charges, while no one arrested most people
who broke into the Capitol and proceeded to commit a wide range
of crimes.
What does this say about criminal justice and law enforcement
priorities? Why do you think it turned out this way? Is this
just par for the course in America or is this an outlier?
I appreciate any assistance you can provide on these and other,
related questions.
Thank you.
