No. 1: Maintain a cordial and professional relationship with the landlord.
All of these issues and many others should be on the menu when you negotiate your next restaurant lease.
The best restaurateurs are good at the details: they pay attention to what ingredients go into the food, how each dish is plated and served, how much liquor is sold, and how quickly the tables turn.
They need to train that same laser focus on a critical piece of paper that can spell the difference between big profits and big headaches: the lease. The other signatory of the lease—the landlord—certainly is.
When negotiating restaurant leases for retail landlords, tenants, developers, and management companies, there are several key issues that we, as attorneys, need bear in mind. There are particular points that should be included in restaurant leases that may differ from clauses in other commercial real estate leases.
The list begins with one that can drive any restaurateur to drink: the liquor license. Permitting varies depending on jurisdiction, which means the amount of time it takes to obtain a liquor license also can vary widely. That's a big deal, especially if you're a new restaurant with little name recognition that wants to keep patrons coming back. But what if the process will take months, yet your obligation to open and pay rent starts in two weeks? Or, worse, what if your application is rejected?
This can be dealt with in the lease by including a contingency that stipulates how long you can delay the start of operations based on the length of the permitting process or, in a worst-case scenario, can provide you with the ability to terminate the lease if you are unable to obtain a liquor license on acceptable terms and conditions. Most leases have permit contingencies, but few have the business ramifications of an alcohol permit for restaurants. So, work with your landlord to make sure you are protected if you come across any roadblocks in obtaining your liquor license.
Another important lease provision is the use exclusive, which gives a restaurant the right to offer its distinctive fare without competition in the same shopping center. A new pizza shop doesn't want another pizza place a few feet away, but what about a full service Italian restaurant or a movie theater that features pizza as a menu item? Landlords will try to narrow the exclusivity to ensure a good tenant mix for their centers, while restaurateurs will surely want to expand it as far as possible to protect their business. As the operator of a restaurant, that means understanding what you serve and what substitutes your customers may want that can dig into your bottom line. For example, you may be a full service Mexican restaurant but if your wait times get too long, do you really want a Chipotle or Qdoba a few doors down? On the flip side, before finalizing the lease it is best to understand the limitations already existing within a shopping center and whether your current or future use conflicts with another tenant's rights under its lease. Using one of the examples above, do you want the ability to turn your Mexican restaurant into an Italian or seafood concept? While working with the landlord on how to rein in competition, make sure you also discuss how you can expand (or even change) your menu or concept in the future.
In addition, you may also want to draft your lease to guard against pop-up restaurant kiosks and food trucks, which can add buzz and new customers to your centers but can offer similar fare and take away the same parking spaces usually used by your diners.
Parking is important, of course, because restaurants always want ample, and nearby, parking. Restaurants take up far more parking than typical retail tenants, and a lease will almost always have provisions tied to how much parking will be needed to satisfy the restaurant and the landlord, often measured in parks per square feet.
Restaurants typically will seek via the lease to keep other high-intensity parking users, such as grocery stores, movie theaters and fitness centers, as far away as possible so that their customers have ample available spaces. Of course this also works both ways as other parking intense operators may try through their leases to keep your restaurant at a distance.
You can also draft your lease to allow for quick and easy access for the newest concepts in restaurant food delivery, from to-go parking to spaces set aside for Uber Eats, GrubHub, DoorDash and the like. Some landlords may be willing, through the lease negotiation process, to dedicate parking areas and lots for delivery firms. And if your restaurant is delivering food off-site, make sure your lease preserves your ability to do so—without penalty.
The parking lots themselves present additional lease issues. Who will maintain the parking lot? How are costs to maintain the parking lot calculated? Is the landlord responsible for lighting beyond typical shopping center hours, which is critical when your patrons depart at night and your employees who need to stay late to close operations for the day? In one instance, a full-service restaurant at a shopping center recognized that they needed overtime common area lighting since its operations often run later into the evening than neighboring non-restaurant tenants, so they requested that the landlord install the lighting control panel inside their restaurant to give them full control of the lighting (and the restaurant was willing to pay for their share).
Other venues present other concerns for restaurants. For example, a lease in an office building most likely will need to address noxious use restrictions that deal with noise, odor, ventilation, trash removal and related issues, such as where do the exhaust and grease go? Does your landlord provide the dumpster space and frequent garbage service necessary to operate a restaurant? You will need specifically tailored language in your lease to protect your interests.
Visibility can also be crucial, particularly for a new restaurant in an office building or mixed-use development. Where will the signage go? On the street? Inside? With giant or tiny letters? Some of this is governed by government code, but anything that isn't will be governed by the lease. Landlords will want to make sure that their properties maintain a certain ascetic so try to work with them to have signage approved prior to lease execution.
The lease can be drafted to allow for your exit strategy—but beware that landlords will be resistant to expansive assignment and subleasing rights. In the past, landlords might have been agreeable to allow a tenant to assign its lease to other similar restaurant operators provided that they meet a few requirements. However, as the chef-driven restaurant trend continues, landlords have been tightening these assignment provisions because the chefs operating the restaurants may be a big draw to their properties.
That being said, for non-chef driven restaurants, landlords may be more willing to allow you to at least assign the space to a restaurant like yours provided that you meet certain net worth and operating experience requirements. If you're a multi-concept company, you may also be able to carve-out your right to assign or sublease your space to any of your related brands. Similarly, if you're a top national brand, you don't want landlords having a say in your business matters, such as a corporate reshuffling.
Often the lease negotiation process includes other vital documents addressing or bolstering your rights discussed above, such as a memorandum of lease, a declaration, and an easement agreement. When negotiating the lease or any other document, here is the final and best piece of advice: Maintain a cordial and professional relationship with the landlord. The landlord and you both want the landlord's shopping center (or office building), including your restaurant, to be a successful and desirable location, so establishing a friendly and open relationship with the landlord will greatly benefit all parties during the sometimes tough process.
All of these issues and many others should be on the menu when you negotiate your next restaurant lease. Failure to do so could seriously reduce your flexibility and profitability while keeping you from what you do best—feeding your customers and providing an enjoyable dining experience.

Q: Finding the set of best approximation Given $X$=$l^1$ and its dual space $X^*=l^\infty$. Now take $f=(1, 1/2, 2/3, 3/4,...) \in X^*$. Then clearly $\|f\|_\infty = 1$. I have found that $H=\ker f$ is a proximinal hyperplane in $X$.
Note: A subspace $Y$ of a normed linear space $X$ is called  proximinal  if for all $x \in X$, $P_Y(x) \neq \emptyset$, where $P_Y(x)= \{ y \in Y : \|x-y\| = d(x, Y) \}$. Here $y\in P_Y(x)$ will be called a best approximation; the distance function is defined as $d(x, Y)= \inf \|x-y_0\|$,  $\forall y_0 \in Y$. I need to find the set of best approximations  $B_Y(x)$ of $x$ to $B_Y$, where $B_Y$ is the closed unit ball in $Y$ defined as $B_Y=\{y_0 \in Y: \|y_0\| \leq 1\}$. I am stuck at the confusion that whether $B_Y$ exists or not and if it exists, what would  $P_{B_Y}(x)$ be? Kindly help me. Thank you in advance.

A: Similar to $P_Y(x)$, there is no such ready formula for evaluating $P_{B_Y}(x)$, when $Y=\ker (f)$, and so is for $d(x,B_Y)$. In some cases, for instance when $d(x,Y)=d(x,B_Y)$, it is easier to understand $P_{B_Y}(x)$. In fact in few cases one can write $P_{B_Y}(x)=B_Y\cap P_Y(x)$, when $d(x,Y)=d(x,B_Y)$.
Now the point $f=(1,1/2,2/3,\ldots)\in\ell_\infty$ is a smooth point of $\ell_\infty$ (in fact Frechet smooth) and $f (e_1)=1$. Hence $J_X (f)\neq\emptyset$ and a singleton. It now follows that $P_Y(e_1)=\{0\}$ and clearly $P_{B_Y}(e_1)=\{0\}$ as $d(e_1,Y)=d(e_1,B_Y)$. Here $Y=\ker (1,1/2,2/3,\ldots)$ and $J_X(f)=\{x\in S_X: f(x)=1\}$.
Now $Y$ is a strongly proximinal subspace of $\ell_1$ as $(1,1/2,2/3,\ldots)$ is an SSD point of $\ell_\infty$. This follows that $d(e_i,B_Y)>d(e_i,Y)$, whenever $i>1$. So in these cases one needs to evaluate separately $d(e_i,B_Y)$ and figure out whether $P_{B_Y}(e_i)\neq\emptyset$. See (Proposition 2.10, Indumathi, Lalithambigai, J. Convex Analysis, {vol 18}(2), 353--366, (2011)).
For a point $x\in\ell_1$, suppose $\inf\{\|y\|:y\in P_Y(x)\}\leq 1$.
Then $d(x,Y)=d(x,B_Y)$ if and only if $P_{B_Y}(x)=P_Y(x)\cap B_Y$.


Ever since I was a wee little lad, I've had desires for possessions that exceeded the money in my wallet. One of those possessions was the Herman Miller Aeron chair that I've wanted since 2001. When I realized that the chair cost $800+, I promptly added it to my ever-growing list of "Things That I Want, but My Wallet Won't Let Me Buy." Even though the chair was was out of sight, it never left my mind, especially when I worked long hours at my desk at home and experienced back pains from my value-quality office chair that I got for $59.99 + tax. Eventually I decided that I needed to give this seemingly unattainable product a home in my room and I started to pursue it. This is the story of how I was paid $400 to keep a brand new, fully loaded Herman Miller Aeron Chair.
I accomplished goal # 1 in ten minutes, but goal # 2 took a bit longer. My strategy was to use my negotiation skills to purchase three chairs at a deep discount, then I'd sell two chairs for enough profit to cover the cost of the third. This seemed like a very easy task until I realized the incredible demand for these chairs, as if they were personally crafted and sold by the King of Morocco. The sellers seemed to leave very little room for negotiation because the demand greatly exceeded the supply and this left me in a bind. The goal that I hoped to accomplish within one week proved to require a bit of patience to see a return. Unfortunately, patience isn't my forte!
I stepped my search into high-gear and gave myself a deadline of two weeks to complete the mission. I used a website to inform me within seconds of any Aeron chair that was listed on Craigslist and whenever there was a new listing, I immediately contacted the seller to negotiate a deal before anyone else knew that the listing existed. This method proved to be successful, as I was able to purchase a total of three brand-new, fully-loaded, size "B" Aeron chairs with the posture fit add-on and a full warranty for a total of $700—a deal that would've otherwise cost me $2,607 if I purchased from Amazon.
Within three hours, I picked up my chairs and drove home looking like an office supply kleptomaniac, as they were awkwardly jam-packed in the backseat of my car. Soon after, I listed two of the chairs on Craigslist with a detailed description and many images at different angles. I found buyers for both chairs within a few weeks and eventually sold them for a total of $1,100.
In the end I was able to have my perfect dream chair plus $400 cash, by simply spending time devising a strategy and using a bit of effort. As a result of this, my back feels great when sitting in the chair for hours, and there are two other two happy people out there who are having the same comfortable seating experience as a result of my strategy that was birthed in a hotel room.

One-Third of Workers Do Not Work in Occupations Related to Their College Major
Thirty-six Percent Wish They Majored in Something Different
CHICAGO, Nov. 14, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Choosing your college major is a significant life decision, but a new study from CareerBuilder suggests it may not necessarily define your career path. Nearly half (47 percent) of college-educated workers said their first job after college was not related to their college major. Thirty-two percent of college-educated workers reported that they never found a job related to their college major. Among more seasoned workers – those ages 35 and older – that number is 31 percent.
The national survey was conducted online by Harris Interactive© from August 13 to September 6, 2013, and included a representative sample of 2,134 workers across industries and company sizes who graduated from college.
"A college education will give you a significant advantage in the job market. In a tough economic climate, college graduates must be flexible and open to taking positions outside their area of study. Taking the knowledge gained in college and branching out with it in unexpected directions is common after graduating," said Rosemary Haefner, vice president of Human Resources at CareerBuilder. "In most cases, workers who went into a new field ended up liking the new industry. Odds are you won't get that dream job right out of school, but it's important to remember that there are many different paths."
While finding employment unrelated to a college might seem like a let-down, 64 percent of employees say they're happy with the degree they chose to achieve, and 61 percent of respondents believe they can still have their dream job.
Graduating in a Difficult Job Market
While thirteen percent of college graduates said the demand for their degree increased between the time they entered college and the time they graduated, 28 percent said the market for their degree got worse and 59 percent said the market for their degree was unchanged. Thirty-six percent of all college-educated workers said they wished they chose a different major.
Graduating into a depressed job market set back job seekers in a number of ways. Of those who said the demand for their degree decreased while they were in school, 33 percent also said they were forced to take a lower paying job outside their field, and 32 percent said the lack of demand meant they couldn't find work after graduation.
However, 46 percent of respondents who said the demand for their major decreased while they were in college also reported that they were able to find a job in their desired career path within a year, and 58 percent had within two years after graduation.
This survey was conducted online within the U.S. by Harris Interactive© on behalf of CareerBuilder among 2,134 U.S. workers (employed full-time, not self-employed, non-government) who graduated from college between August 13 and September 6, 2013 (percentages for some questions are based on a subset, based on their responses to certain questions). With a pure probability sample of 2,134, one could say with a 95 percent probability that the overall results have a sampling error of +/-2.12 percentage points. Sampling error for data from sub-samples is higher and varies. For full survey methodology, including weighting variables, please contact [email protected].

Pork Loin and Pork Tenderloin: What Is the Difference?
Written by Caitlin M. O'Shaughnessy on November 4, 2021
Despite what you might think, "What is the difference between pork loin and pork tenderloin?" is not a trick question. Although they sound incredibly similar, pork tenderloin and pork loin are actually very different cuts of meat.
Cuts of Pork
In the simplest version of a primal cuts of pork diagram, you'll see just four different cuts: pork shoulder (also called pork butt); pork loin (think of this as the back of the pig); pork belly (pretty self-explanatory); and pork leg (which is better known as ham).
These four primal cuts can then be broken down into more specific parts. For instance, pork chops are often cut from the pork loin. A rib chop comes from the part of the loin that includes the ribs, as you might have guessed.
In the grocery store, when you see an intact pork loin, it will be a a wide, flat, rectangular cut of pork, usually sold as either a boneless roast or bone-in roast.
It's very lean, so you shouldn't cook it at high temperatures or it will dry out. When you cook it right, at a low temperature and for not too long a time, pork loin is very tender. The center cut portion of the pork loin is the leanest (and most expensive) cut of meat from the pig.
You may also see pork sirloin, which is a cut that comes from farther back near the hips, and is not very highly regarded.
Pork tenderloin, on the other hand, is a much smaller cut of meat. The pork tenderloin is a long, thin cut of pork (only about two inches wide) that is a muscle underneath the backbone of the pig, and has very little marbling, so it takes even less time to cook.
Can You Substitute Pork Loin for Pork Tenderloin?
No. Pork tenderloin and pork loin are not easily substituted in recipes—if you're looking to cook a pork tenderloin recipe, the timing and heat indications will be inaccurate for a pork loin, and vice-versa.
Whether you're looking for pork tenderloin or pork loin, the bottom line is that you will have a delicious meal awaiting you as long as you choose a cooking method appropriate to the specific cut you choose.
Pork Tenderloin and Pork Loin Recipes
Take a peek at these 10 recipes for pork loin and pork tenderloin that won't disappoint.
Pork Loin with Roast Paprika
This pork loin is seasoned with sweet and hot Spanish paprika and covered in a garlic paste made from 10 cloves of garlic, water, and kosher salt. Cover the pork loin evenly in the paste and make sure to be patient while marinating. Get the Pork Loin with Roast Paprika recipe.
Baked Garlic Pork Tenderloin
An Italian-inspired blend of herbs, garlic, butter, sea salt, and olive oil make for a simple marinade that goes well with the side dish of your choice. Plan on resting the roast for 45 minutes when it's done for maximum juiciness. Get the Baked Garlic Pork Tenderloin recipe.
Fennel-and-Prosciutto-Stuffed Pork Loin Roast
This pork roast is a real showstopper: the butterflied pork loin roast is rolled into a tight cylinder (filled with fennel and prosciutto) that is tied and then cooked in the oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for only about an hour. Let it rest for 20 minutes to ensure it's juicy, then slice it open to reveal spirals of tender meat and flavorful stuffing. Get our Fennel-and-Prosciutto-Stuffed Pork Loin Roast recipe.
Pork Tenderloin with Salsa Verde
This tenderloin is also butterflied, but not stuffed and rolled back up; instead, the meat is left flattened out for more even cooking that's quicker too. Serve with any sauce you like; this Italian salsa verde is delicious, but chimichurri would also work. Get our Salsa Verde Pork Tenderloin recipe.
Bourbon Peach Pork Tenderloin
This is a great combination of fruit (peach jam) and spice (garlic) mixed with some bourbon, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Get the Bourbon Peach Pork Tenderloin recipe.
Cuban Rotisserie Pork Loin
Our recipe for Cuban pork loin is all about the marinade—freshly squeezed orange and lime juice, oregano, olive oil, and 12 garlic cloves are mixed together for a zesty marinade that gets better every hour you let it sit. Get our Cuban Rotisserie Pork Loin recipe. If you don't have a rotisserie, you can roast it in the oven. (You can also grill pork tenderloin for a faster outdoor dinner.)
Pancetta-Wrapped Pork Tenderloin
You know what tastes great with pork tenderloin? More pork! This pancetta-wrapped recipe is packed with flavor and seasoned with fresh thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Get the Pancetta Wrapped Pork Tenderloin recipe. Or try our Bacon Wrapped Pork Tenderloin recipe with apples.
Crock Pot Balsamic Pork Loin Roast
If you're often short on time to spend actively making dinner, this recipe is magic—the glaze is made from brown sugar, cumin, garlic powder, chili powder, salt, pepper, and chicken broth and reduces itself after hours of slow cooking in the Crock-Pot. Be sure to choose a pork loin with a visible fat cap so the meat stays moist. Get our Crock Pot Balsamic Pork Loin Roast recipe.
Proving you don't have to cook tenderloin whole, our Sweet and Sour Pork recipe calls for cutting it into bite-size pieces before battering it in a potato starch and flour mixture and frying. The sweet and tangy sauce is the perfect finishing touch.
Pork loin can also be cut into smaller pieces before cooking. In our Tacos al Pastor recipe, it's sliced crosswise before soaking in a flavor-packed marinade with chiles, spices, garlic, pineapple, and vinegar overnight. Then it's grilled along with pieces of fresh pineapple for stuffing into tacos (and your face). This is much easier for most home cooks than the traditional spit roasting method, and just as delicious!

Micaela Shonafelt Humanities
Silent No More: Giving Voice to the Women of Etruria
The unique visibility of Etruscan women has garnered great interest among scholars of Etruscology. That said, the status of these women in the 4th -1st century BCE, a period that witnessed the waning of Etruscan identity in the shadow of the emerging Roman Empire, has not yet been a major focus of study. Working to enhance our conception of the changing roles of women in Southern Etruria as they became assimilated into the patriarchal gender hierarchy of the Roman Republic, Micaela will be traveling to Rome to closely analyze the archaeological evidence from this transitional period, housed primarily in the Villa Guilia Museum. Her work will shed further light on these women in hopes of reaching a more complete understanding of the ancient foundations of our present conceptions of gender.

Targeting oncogenic drivers
Yujie Zhao, Alex A. Adjei
Cancer is a genetic disease caused by a series of somatic and/or germline mutations. The roles of oncogenes and tumor suppressors in cancer molecular origin have been well established.

Nella sua carriera, iniziata alla fine degli anni settanta, si è aggiudicata quattro Grammy, otto Brit Awards e l'Oscar alla migliore canzone nel 2004. È stata nominata la più grande cantante vivente del soul bianco dalla rete televisiva VH1 e la Official Charts Company l'ha definita l'artista britannica di maggior successo nella storia della musica del Regno Unito. La rivista Rolling Stone, inoltre, l'ha posizionata al 93ºposto nella classifica dei migliori cantanti di tutti i tempi.

Biografia
Frequenta fin dall'età di 7 anni una scuola di pianoforte. In seguito viene ammessa alla Royal Academy of Music di Londra dove studia flauto traverso con buoni risultati. Nel 1991 partecipa con un cameo al film Edoardo II di Derek Jarman.

Sì è sposata tre volte; dal secondo matrimonio ha avuto due figlie, Lola (nata nel 1990) e Tali (nata nel 1993). La figlia maggiore a soli 16 anni ha deciso di seguire le orme della madre, dedicandosi però alla musica classica. A metà settembre 2012 Annie Lennox è convolata a nozze per la terza volta, col medico ginecologo sudafricano Mitch Besser.

Carriera artistica

1977–90: The Tourists e gli Eurythmics
Ha raggiunto la popolarità come cantante di musica pop, cantando per tre anni nel gruppo scozzese The Tourists (con cui ha inciso 3 LP) tra il 1976 e il 1980.

All'inizio degli anni 1980 tra Annie e il chitarrista del gruppo, David A. Stewart, nasce una relazione sentimentale. I due, per quanto la relazione si fosse già esaurita, decidono di lasciare il gruppo per crearne uno nuovo, gli Eurythmics. All'inizio della carriera degli Eurythmics, Lennox si distingue per il suo look androgino, tanto da impersonare un mito di sesso maschile, Elvis Presley. Molti giornalisti spesso si riferiscono a lei come la Grace Jones bianca.

Negli anni Ottanta il duo pubblica una lunga serie di singoli divenuti in seguito i loro più "classici" successi: Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This), Here Comes the Rain Again, Would I Lie to You?, There Must Be an Angel (Playing with My Heart), Missionary Man, You Have Placed a Chill in My Heart, Don't Ask Me Why e altri.

Nel 1991, dopo la rottura (informale) con Dave Stewart, Annie Lennox intraprende una lunga carriera da solista pareggiando il successo ottenuto con il precedente duo.

1992–93: Diva
Il suo primo album solista del 1992, Diva, è un successo inequivocabile sia di critica che commerciale. Il suo successo continua grazie ai singoli estratti da Diva, (uno fra tutti la celebre Why) che le assicurano numerosi premi, cimentandosi nel 1992 anche nella composizione della colonna sonora del celebre film Dracula di Bram Stoker di Francis Ford Coppola. Nello stesso anno partecipa anche al Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert duettando con David Bowie nella canzone Under Pressure. Le sue apparizioni si fanno via via sempre più rare tanto da allontanarla progressivamente dallo show business.

1995–2000: Medusa e il ritorno degli Eurythmics
Anche Medusa, pubblicato tre anni dopo l'uscita di Diva ottiene dei buoni risultati di pubblico, grazie anche al successo riscosso dal primo singolo estratto No More "I Love You's" col quale vincerà un grammy come migliore performance femminile pop. Nel 1995 partecipa alla colonna sonora del film di Ron Howard, Apollo 13, cantando il brano nei titoli di coda. Nel 1997 Annie ha registrato nuovamente la canzone degli Eurythmics Angel in omaggio a Diana, Principessa del Galles. Nel 1998 stabilisce nuovi contatti con Dave Stewart e nel 1999 i rinati Eurythmics producono l'album Peace.

2003–07: Bare e l'Oscar per la miglior canzone
Nel 2003 ha pubblicato il suo terzo album da solista, Bare.

Nel 2004, la Lennox ha vinto l'Oscar per la migliore canzone (Academy Award for Best Song) per Into the West dal film Il Signore degli Anelli - Il ritorno del re ai 76º Academy Awards. Precedentemente aveva registrato Use Well the Days per il film, nel cui testo abbondano le citazioni di Tolkien. Questa canzone non è stata utilizzata nel film, bensì appare su un DVD bonus incluso con l'edizione speciale del CD della colonna sonora del film. Nel luglio 2005, Annie Lennox ha partecipato al Live 8 ad Hyde Park, Londra.

2007–09: Songs of Mass Destruction e The Annie Lennox Collection
Il suo quarto album in studio Songs of Mass Destruction è uscito in Italia il 1º ottobre 2007. Inizialmente prevista a settembre 2008, la prima raccolta della carriera solista, The Annie Lennox Collection, è stata posticipata a causa di problemi di salute all'inizio del 2009. Quattordici canzoni tra le più significative della sua produzione senza gli Eurythmics. L'antologia contiene anche tre cover: A Whiter Shade of Pale dei Procol Harum (già presente nell'album Medusa), Shining Light degli Ash e Closer Now dei Keane (reincisa con il nuovo titolo Pattern of My Life). Tra le tracce invece troverà spazio anche Love Song for a Vampire incisa nel 1992. Questo disco è il suo ultimo lavoro pubblicato con la Sony BMG.

2010-2014: A Christmas Cornucopia e Nostalgia
Ad agosto 2010 Annie Lennox ha firmato un nuovo contratto discografico con la Island Records nel Regno Unito e la Decca Records negli Stati Uniti (entrambe parti dello Universal Music Group). Il suo primo lavoro è un album natalizio intitolato A Christmas Cornucopia, pubblicato il 15 novembre 2010. L'album contiene interpretazioni di classiche canzoni natalizie e il nuovo brano Universal Child, che è stato pubblicato come primo singolo il 12 ottobre. Lennox aveva interpretato il brano ad American Idol nell'aprile 2010. Il 4 novembre Annie Lennox ha pubblicato sul proprio canale YouTube il video per il brano God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen.

Il 21 ottobre 2014 viene pubblicato il suo nuovo album Nostalgia nel quali sono presenti solo cover di altri brani interpretati dalla cantante, i primi due estratti sono I Put a Spell on You e Summertime.

L'album ottiene una candidatura ai Grammy Awards nella categoria Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album. L'8 febbraio 2015 durante i Grammy Awards si esibisce con Hozier in Take Me to Church e I Put a Spell on You. Sempre nello stesso mese I Put a Spell on You entra a far parte della colonna sonora del film Cinquanta sfumature di grigio.

Arsenal boost in Wijnaldum transfer chase as PSG star revealed to be boyhood fan
ARSENAL have received a boost in their pursuit of PSG midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum after it was revealed he supported them as a boy.
The former Liverpool midfielder, 31, has been linked with a move away from the Ligue 1 leaders this month after struggling to hit the ground running in France.

🗣 "I've been told Arsenal are one of his favourite clubs, when he was growing up he was an Arsenal supporter."@SkyKaveh says Gini Wijnaldum is open to a Premier League return and Arsenal who are linked are "close to his heart" pic.twitter.com/jVMg7SRWpx
— Football Daily (@footballdaily) January 11, 2022
And journalist Kaveh Solhekol has now confirmed the Dutchman could be more open to a move to the Emirates because of his love for them as a child.
Speaking on Sky Sports, he said: "I've been told Arsenal are one of his favourite clubs.
"Somebody quite close to me said that when he was growing up that he was an Arsenal supporter.
"So I think that he would be more than happy to play for Arsenal one day.
"I'm not going to say it's going to happen this month. I'm not going to say it's going to happen in the summer.
"But they are definitely, I've been told, a club that are close to his heart."

Wijnaldum has been reduced to a role off the bench for much of the campaign so far.
However, he has recently begun to secure a place in the starting line-up for Mauricio Pochettino's side – beginning each of their last three league matches.
He has managed just three goals and one assists in 24 games since leaving Liverpool at the end of last season.
But Solhekol insists if he now continues to get more game time under Pochettino then he expects to stay at the club.
"The issue as far as the player is concerned is he just wants to player," he added. "If he's playing regularly at PSG then he's happy at PSG.
"Significantly, he's started their past three league games. So if that continues, I think it's more and more likely that he will stay at PSG."
The midfielder spent six seasons in England – one with Newcastle and five with Liverpool.
He scored 11 goals in 40 games for Newcastle before moving to Anfield in 2016.
And Wijnaldum went on to play 237 times for the Reds, netting 22 times for Jurgen Klopp's men.
During his time with Liverpool, he won both the Champions League and Premier League.

'Trump will not impose tariffs on imported European cars': outgoing EU chief
Published Nov 8, 2019, 3:13 pm IST
Updated Nov 8, 2019, 3:13 pm IST
Trump's administration has been threatening since last year to impose tariffs on auto imports to defend the US automaking sector.

Munich: The outgoing president of the European Commission Jean-Claude Juncker said Friday he believes the US will not impose new tariffs on imported European cars in the coming days.
President Donald Trump's administration has been threatening since last year to impose tariffs on auto imports to defend the US automaking sector, a symbol of American manufacturing.
After postponing such measures in May, Trump is due to decide by mid-November whether to impose the supplemental tariffs on cars built in EU countries -- a step particularly feared by the big German automakers.
But in an interview with a German newspaper, Juncker said he was "fully informed" on the issue and that Trump "will not do it".
"Trump will criticise a little, but there will not be tariffs on cars," he told the Suddeutsche Zeitung published Friday.
If adopted, it would mark the latest escalation of the trade conflict between Brussels and Washington, coming only weeks after the US imposed new punitive taxes on European products worth USD 7.5 billion.
That increase came in mid-October, four days after the World Trade Organization (WTO) gave Washington a green light to take retaliatory trade measures against the EU over its subsidies to European aerospace giant Airbus.
The United States also imposed heightened tariffs last year on EU-made steel and aluminium products.
On November 3, US Secretary of Commerce Wilbur Ross suggested Washington may not need to impose new customs taxes on auto imports.
"We've had very good conversations with our European friends, with our Japanese friends, with our Korean friends," Ross said.

The Royal Maces were commissioned as Attack Squadron 27, originally designated the Chargers, on 1 September 1967 flying the Vought A-7A Corsair II. Early in 1968 the squadron reported to Carrier Air Wing 14 and in May, as the Vietnam conflict raged, the Royal Maces departed for their first combat deployment aboard the USS Constellation (CVA-64).
During their second combat cruise aboard the Constellation, in 1969, VA-27 flew over 2,500 combat sorties. Transitioning to the newer A-7E in June 1970, they embarked on their third combat cruise a year later aboard the USS Enterprise (CVN-65). Squadron pilots amassed over 4,400 combat flight hours from the deck of the Big "E" and participated in over 1,500 air strikes without the loss of a single aircraft.
The Royal Maces commenced their fourth combat deployment in September 1972, and completed the year by winning the Admiral C. Wade McClusky Trophy, the Safety Award, and the Battle Efficiency Pennant, making a clean sweep of every award for excellence in the Light Attack Community for 1972.
The squadron began its next deployment to the Western Pacific in September 1974. The Chargers flew surveillance missions over Vietnam and flew escort for United States Marine Corps and United States Air Force helicopters during the evacuation of American and Vietnamese personnel during Operation Frequent Wind. In 1979, the Chargers joined USS Coral Sea (CV-43) for two more Western Pacific deployments before joining Carrier Air Wing 15 in 1984. Then aboard the USS Carl Vinson (CVN-70), they set off for a seven and one half month Western Pacific cruise, which included a 107 day Indian Ocean line period.
In 1991, after 23 years in the A-7E, 14 deployments, thousands of combat hours and numerous unit awards, the Royal Maces transitioned to the F/A-18A Hornet and were officially re-designated the Chargers of Strike Fighter Squadron Two Seven (VFA-27).

Dr. Gordon Benefits Discusses Why You Should Be Eating Healthy Chocolate. Benefits of Dark chocolates for men and women according to Dr. Gordon Pedersen who came up with cure for malariaIf you are located anywhere near Sarasota Florida, now is the time for you to get serious with your plans to start your own home based business. On Saturday, May 18th, 2013 at 11:30 am, we have the pleasure of learning from one of the best. Dr. Gordon Pedersen is an international best selling author, formulator of more than 150 nutritional products and host of the radio show "Common Sense Medicine". He is an acclaimed scientist and sought after professional speaker and snutritional expert.
Dr. Pedersen will be sharing his knowledge of the health and anti-aging benefits of cold pressed raw chocolate. He will be discussing the new Beyond Beauty Cream cacao based anti-aging skin care, the first neurocosmetic that helps you feel good while improving your skin, and the benefits of eating raw cold pressed chocolate. Can you imagine the huge impact this will have on your new XO business team if you get started now? There are many reasons to own a home based business, extra income, flexibility to work from home and enjoying retirement or the ability to take care of the kids or grandkids on your schedule. The tax incentives alone are reason enough to give a home based business serious thought as you complete your IRS 1040 return and schedule C.
When starting a business, certain issues come into play. How long has the company been in business, is the company debt free, are the products better than what you can get in the open market and are they desirable are just a few of the questions you need to ask yourself. It is vital that you consider these things when making a decision on what home based business opportunity is the best option for you in Boca Grande, Bradenton, Siesta Key, Sarasota or North Port.
The fact that a top notch scientist is involved with a healthy chocolate company is a good indication that the products they sell are for real. In fact, Well Beyond Corporation, the makers of XO Healthy Chocolate have a product line with a patented cold pressed chocolate method which keeps in the antioxidants from the raw cacao, making it the highest antioxidant product available, even higher than the Acai berry it is sweetened with. It also helps that Well Beyond Chocolate has been in business over 7 years, is debt free and has a product everyone loves, chocolate! It also does not hurt that they have one of the best compensation plans available for promoters that I am aware of, plus an ability to earn $1500 your very first week in business if you are willing to work hard and put in the effort.
Let me help you build your business in the Sarasota, Boca Grande and Siesta Key area. I am Lynette Henk, Healthy Chocolate promoter in Punta Gorda. I can be reached at 941-216-5727, emailed at [email protected], or you can visit LiveForChocolate.com. I look forward to great success for us all!

Roofings can end up being extremely undesirable due to organic growths like moss and lichen. Roofings are also regularly discoloured and stained by a prevalent bacteria called gloecapsa magma. Roofing associations and makers do not recommend high pressure washing to clean roofs. It may get rid of moss from the roof, however the aggressive jets of water may likewise damage tiles, ridge capping and other roofing fittings as well as increase the threat of flooding. There is also a good chance that the moss will grow back. Cleaning up with the manufacturers preferred detergent is recommended. This is exactly what we do!
