Name: Erik Martin CTW Features

Category: General

Email: query-brag@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: CTW Features

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 8 January

Query:

Hello. My name is Erik Martin and I am a reporter for HomeStyle,
a nationally syndicated home improvement/design section
published weekly in newspapers across the country (visit
https://tinyurl.com/ejmctwfeatures for samples). I'm looking to
interview interior designers, painting experts, color designers,
remodelers, and other professionals/experts for the following
story:

Earthy and warm hues beat the pandemic blues in 2021. A recent
survey of designers by 1stDibs (details at
https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/1stdibs-reveals-2021-trends-from-its-annual-designer-survey-whats-in-whats-out-and-the-impact-of-covid-19-on-the-design-industry-301190587.html)
found that, while jewel tones came out on top for the second
year in a row -- with Emerald picked by 24% and Cobalt Blue/Navy
by 23% -- warm, earth tones saw a dramatic rise, indicating that
cozier hues are gaining in popularity. Burnt Orange and Mustard
Yellow tied with 22% of the vote, showing the biggest increase
from last year: In fact, Yellow and Orange hues as a whole were
up 13% and 15%, respectively. Rounding out the Top 5 is white,
which also came in with 22% of the vote, an increase of 11% YOY.
This story will highlight the key findings and provide insights
from experts as to why these colors are more in demand right
now. Below is a list of questions I'm seeking answers to. I can
only accept written responses via email. My deadline is 2 PM
central, Friday, January 8, 2021.

QUESTIONS: 1. What did you find interesting or surprising about
the previously mentioned study results and why? 2. Why do you
believe that jewel tones are so in demand lately, especially
considering the coronavirus? What factors are behind this trend?
3. Why do you believe that earth tones and warm hues are also
popular right now, especially considering the coronavirus? What
factors are behind these trends? 4. What should homeowners
consider carefully before choosing new paint/interior colors? 5.
What are your personal color/hue recommendations when it comes
to paints and interior colors for 2021? Please name exact paint
brands/color names and numbers and where these colors are best
applied (which rooms/areas). Also explain why each of these
colors you are recommending are worthy candidates and in fashion
right now. 6. Any other thoughts, tips, or suggestions on this
topic? 7. What is your full name, title, company, city/state
location, and email address?

Apparently, the old true-ism about how the darker your pee

MORE hydrated you are) is NOT TRUE, according to some experts.
I'd love to fact check this with a urologist. Be sure to answer
the following:

1) What impacts your pee color? explain factors

2) is pee color always or ever indicative of hydration? Why or
why not?

3) If no--what are better indicators of how hydrated or
dehydrated you are? give some examples and why

4) Is evaluating pee color ever useful? Explain. And what else
can pee color actually tell us that might be useful then? if
anything!

60) Summary: The Untapped Potential of Ultra-Cold

Name: Mark Ellwood BBC Future

Category: High Tech

Email: query-brbp@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: BBC Future

Deadline: 6:00 PM EST - 12 January

Query:

I am working on a feature for BBC Future - the tech and
innovation vertical of BBC News.

It was sparked by the mongee, which was created by scientists in
Japan. It's an all you can eat banana, peel and all, which was
created using the Freeze Thaw Awakening method. Breeders froze
banana saplings at minus 76 degrees, then replanted them once
they thawed. This mimics an Ice Age. The temperature change
encouraged the seedlings to grow rapidly, and made them sweeter,
and fully edible. They're also sweeter than a typical banana,
with 24.8g of sugar vs the standard 18.3g. The same scientists
have now applied this ultra-cold temperature to cocoa, coffee
and other crops with similarly intriguing effects.

We want to look at the mysterious power of ultra-cold
temperatures. Specifically, we're curious about the different,
innovative applications to which they've been put in all sorts
of situations. The focus is on how cold temperatures can be used
to finesse, manipulate or perfect organic material: foods and
other living things, in other words. We're not interested in
science like IVF, or in applications that focus around computing
or inorganic machines. The key here is we'd like to understand
what the potential of ultra-cold temps might be, and why they
can be so powerful when deployed in clever ways, like the Freeze
Thaw Awakening method.

What is the untapped potential of ultra-cold temperatures?

I'd like to hear from the following * Scientists who have
worked extensively on temperature, especially ultra-cold temps,
and can talk about the potential with first hand anecdotes. I
would like to have some experts who can unpack the detailed
science of what ultra-cold temperatures can, and have, done in
readily digestible ways. * Fruit and vegetable growers who
have also experimented with using temperature changes like this
to improve their harvests - in extreme ways, of course. *
Companies which use ultra-cold temperatures in some way to
produce or grow or create their product. * Authors and other
researchers with expertise in this area to offer perspective,
anecdotes and insights. You get the idea. Please send me a
single para pitch of any potential product or person to feature.

Requirements:

Please mark the subject line: ULTRA-COLD TEMPS Please reply
directly to this email, rather than emailing me via other
methods. 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. No attachments,
please; all emails with attachments will be deleted unopened.
