Those who grumble about their daily commute, imagine this ride to work: clamber into an elevator cage and plummet 2.4 kilometers (1.5 miles) into the earth, so fast that ears pop from the changing air pressure. Then board a small railroad car that creaks and grinds the same distance to the outer reaches of a South African gold mine.
It gets humid down below. Sweat flows. For the unaccustomed, the din of drills and other machinery is disorienting. Travelers are weighed down by boots and a jumpsuit, a helmet with a mounted flashlight and a "self-rescuer," a metal canister with a breathing tube and an oxygen supply in case something goes wrong.
Miners have a chain of command, but the extreme conditions are a kind of leveler.
"We're all equal underground," Gerard Pienaar, senior operations manager at South Deep mine, said on a recent tour of the flagship operation of Gold Fields Limited that provided a look at some of the conditions in South Africa's mining industry that drives the continent's biggest economy.
South Deep miners work 12-hour shifts – four days on, four days off. Forces of man and nature seem to be locked in battle in this extreme environment, where safety is a constant concern, and everyone depends on everyone else to stick to precautions.
South Africa has rich reserves of gold, platinum and other minerals but a sharp drop in the price of gold and labor unrest are challenging the mining industry. A strike over compensation in the platinum sector is into its third month. In 2012, police shot and killed several dozen protesters during labor unrest at a Lonmin platinum mine.
South African miners have traditionally used hand-held rock drills in tough and sometimes dangerous conditions. But that has changed at South Deep, located 45 kilometers (28 miles) southwest of Johannesburg where the company is based.
Gold Fields has spent $4 billion on the mine and the new mechanized operations make for improved conditions and less exposure to labor protests. Workers here typically earn three to four times more than counterparts at gold mines that are not mechanized, according to Gold Fields.
On the surface, employees learn how to maneuver machines on a high-tech simulator. Below, large vehicles traverse well-lit chambers. A state-of-the-art workshop that is the size of two football fields is being built. Gold Fields, which also has operations in Peru, Ghana and Australia, brought in Australian experts to build up workers' skills.
Gold Fields has previously pushed back output goals at South Deep, partly because of the complex challenges of using machines underground, but it predicts full production by the end of 2017. The mine operates round the clock with about 5,000 employees. It seems like a self-contained world below ground, with chambers where workers eat and rest. The company seeks to maximize "face time" – the amount of time that miners actually spend working at and around the rock face, rather than on the lengthy journey to and from the surface.
South Deep extends 3.3 kilometers (2 miles) below ground but even at that depth it is not among the deepest in the country, with some penetrating more than four kilometers (2.5 miles).
Miners at South Deep settle into a rhythm and are most productive on the second and third days of the four-day stretch, according to Pienaar. About 10 percent of workers are women, he said.
There have been safety upgrades in South African mines over the years, but the toll remains high. In 2012, there were 112 accidental deaths at South African mine operations, a 9 percent drop over the previous year, according to the most recent published figures from the country's chamber of mines.
In 2008, nine workers at South Deep fell to their deaths when a cable attached to the shaft cage snapped. Last year, a drill-rig operator died in a rock fall, the first fatality in more than two years. Gold Fields concluded "poor discipline" was a factor and introduced new safety training.
Willie Jacobsz, head of investor relations and corporate affairs at Gold Fields, said penalties for workers who don't observe safety include docked pay. The company mantra is: Look out for one another, a message captured in a verse of a poem on an office wall that reads: "I could have saved a life today/But chose to look the other way."
At the mine gates, warnings abound. There is a breathalyzer machine to test alcohol levels, a poster on how to prevent disease-causing dust getting into the lungs, an instruction to ensure explosives are locked at all times and a list of barred items. They include cameras, alcohol, firearms and high heels.

As the ALEC boycott continues to grow some corporations are not getting the message. Executives from Pfizer, Reynolds American, and Procter & Gamble are daring you to boycott them.
Beneath the good news that Kraft and Pepsi have joined Coca-Cola in deciding to stop supporting ALEC, there are some companies who just don't get it. According to Reuters, Pfizer, Reynolds American, and Procter & Gamble have all came out in support of ALEC. Tobacco maker Reynolds American said, "ALEC provides a valuable forum for sharing of ideas and fostering better understanding of a broad range of both legislative and business issues."
Of the three companies who are standing with ALEC, one is a tobacco company and the other is a drug maker. Both of these companies smugly believe that consumers are stuck using their products either due to addiction (Reynolds) or medical need (Pfizer). I would argue that politically inclined Americans who smoke can always change brands, so Reynolds shouldn't get too comfy.
Pfizer and Proctor & Gamble executives apparently think they are immune to boycott. Pfizer has seen their profits plummet as the patents have or will expire on 42% of their drugs. Pfizer's profits fell 50% as their patent expired on their top drug Lipitor. The extensive list of Proctor & Gamble brands includes Bounty, Braun, Tide, Head & Shoulders, Vicks, Duracell, Gillette, Iams, Febreeze, Oral-B, and Crest.
The companies that are standing with ALEC are doing so out of arrogance. They don't believe that a boycott could impact them, but no corporation is completely resistant to boycotts. In order to function and survive, corporations need money. Without money even the biggest corporate giant will eventually fall, and these titans get their nourishment from you and me.
Every time you buy a bottle of Tide, you are supporting Stand Your Ground and voter ID laws. Every night that you grab up your Oral-B toothbrush and brush your teeth with Crest, your money is going to fund the effort to suppress the vote. Dawn may take grease out of your way, but could also make your vote not count on Election Day.
One of the lessons learned about boycotts is that when they are executed properly, they are pretty much unstoppable. There is a reason why Fox News has come running to the urgent defense of ALEC. The right is starting to understand that these boycotts work. One consumer may not be able to make a difference, but thousands of consumers can reshape the marketplace.
The message is that Americans must stop buying the products that fund the theft of your liberties and the hijacking of our representative democracy. They are using your money to take away your rights, and it must stop now.

Nice pic Jules. Looking at the view from that path with the mark-one eyeball naturally draws the observer's attention to the farmer's [very] pink-painted barn (a reaction to a planning decision...bless!). Your lens doesn't lie, but it does reduce the visual impact of the structure in order to reveal what Ruskin was so expansive about.
I think you might find that that pink building is the end of a rusting Dutch barn.
Nice view. It's all nice (almost) up that way, to be sure. But I prefer the view on the other side of the hill, in Dentdale. :-)
P.Lewis: As anonymous said, it is a reaction to a planning decision. The barn is great; painted like a liquorice allsort. You are fortunate that you can afford to prefer Dentdale. So much of England is so ugly by comparison that to me it seems a bit churlish to be so particular.
Sun actually shining in England?
Must be due to climate change...

Pagano, Peterson … and Alfred Morris, really, on NFL marquee. A Week 17 NFL quiz
The NFL's regular season ended Sunday with one coach, Indianapolis's Chuck Pagano, making a triumphant and inspiring return to the sidelines after months of cancer treatments. Meanwhile a handful of coaches were about to receive pink slips (Philadelphia's Andy Reid, Kansas City's Romeo Crennel, Cleveland's Pat Shurmur, and Buffalo's Chan Gailey were gone by Monday morning, and others seemed sure to follow). Amid the musical chairs to make the playoffs, Minnesota's Adrian Peterson came up just nine yards shy of his quest to overtake Eric Dickerson's single-season rushing record of 2,105 yards. His 199 yards, however, helped the Vikings land a playoff berth. The Redskins also were carried to the playoffs by a running back, rookie Alfred Morris, a little-known sixth-round draft pick out of Florida Atlantic, who gained a team record 200 yards in Washington's win-or-go-home 28-18 victory over Dallas. To test your knowledge of Week 17 NFL developments, take this 12-question quiz.
1. Which team managed to clinch a division title despite losing four of its last five games?
Green Bay Packers
Baltimore Ravens
Houston Texans
San Francisco 49ers

Fulfill Your Olympic Bobsledding Dreams on Utah's 'Comet'
If you've ever wanted to shoot down a track of solid ice at 80 miles per hour on a bobsled, now's your chance. The Olympic bobsled track in Park City, UT is open for business.
This exhilarating ride, known as the "Comet," isn't your typical theme park attraction. There's some real danger involved here. The G forces alone (up to 5G) rule out a ride for anyone who's faint of heart, or suffers from chronic back, neck or joint pain.
For those thrill seekers out there who do pass the test, you can either elect to plummet down the track with an experienced pilot, or else take a one-hour driver's class. If you opt for the latter, you'll still have to launch with a brakeman in the rear part of the sled. He'll make sure you don't race too far out of control.
If this sort of adventure appeals to you, head over to the Utah Olympic Park (UOP), near Salt Lake City, and prepare for the "ride of your life." You'll have to sign an indemnity waver releasing the park of any responsibility in the event of your injury or death (always an encouraging sign), but hey, if there were no risks, there would be no fun. This is as close as you'll probably ever come to flying, while never leaving the ground.

English for Academic Purposes Program
The ELI's English for Academic Purposes Program (EAP) serves two groups of people: students who are preparing to enroll in a university degree program in the United States and people who desire an intensive approach to language learning.
Students in the EAP program come from all over the world. Many are international students on F-1 student visas; some are U.S. citizens or permanent residents.
Full-time students in the EAP Program attend 20 hours of noncredit classes each week for 15 weeks in the Fall and Spring Semesters and for 8 weeks in the Summer Session.
To learn more about the ELI's EAP Program, follow the links below.
Description of the EAP Courses
The EAP program consists of five courses: reading, writing, listening, speaking, and grammar. These courses are offered at four different levels: pre-intermediate, intermediate, high intermediate, and advanced. Classes meet Monday - Thursday during the fall and spring semesters, and Monday - Friday in the summer.
Schedule for Upcoming EAP Sessions
Three different EAP sessions are scheduled each year according to The University of Akron academic calendar.

Birthday season in the Caked Crusader's family continues at break-neck speed; this week it is the turn of the CCM (Caked Crusader's Ma). The photo above shows her coloured flame candles and musical banner that flashed 'happy birthday' whilst playing a lovely rendition of the tune (i.e. the sort of electronic music that is enchanting for 30 seconds and then you want to stamp on the thing!).
I may have mentioned it once or twice (regular readers please feel free to yawn here) but the CCM is fanatical about all baked goods with a lemon theme. When I saw this recipe I knew I had found her birthday cake.
The recipe uses oil instead of a solid fat i.e. butter, which led to a light texture not dissimilar to the airy sponginess of a carrot cake. What I also liked was that instead of buttercream the coating and filling is whipped cream to which you add lemon curd. This creates an ultra light, creamy lemon curd.
It is extremely easy to make lemon curd and, even though I loathe lemon (regular readers – you may yawn again!) I can taste the difference to sugary shop-bought curds. Lemon curd is one of those things that I find ridiculously pleasing to make as it falls into the category of alchemy. You begin with a very thin liquid in the pan and just through heat and a bit of stirring it turns into luscious, thick golden curd in barely 15 minutes!
Happy birthday CCM!
For the cakes:
3 eggs, separated
115ml water
115ml groundnut oil (you can use corn oil if you can't find groundnut oil but most supermarkets stock it now)
225g plain flour
40g cornflour
3 level teaspoons baking powder
225g caster sugar
2 lemons - zest and juice
For the lemon curd:
1 lemon – zest and juice
75g caster sugar
2 eggs
50g unsalted butter
For the filling and covering:
350ml whipping cream
Lemon curd (quantity as made above)
How to make:
- Preheat the oven to 180°C/fan oven 160°C/350°F/Gas mark 4.
- Line two 20cm sandwich tins with baking paper.
- Combine the egg yolks with the water and oil and beat until combined.
- Place all the dry ingredients into a bowl i.e. the flour, cornflour, baking powder and sugar, and beat the egg mixture into it until you have a smooth batter.
- Beat in the lemon juice and zest.
- In a separate bowl whisk the egg whites until they are stiff but not dry.
- Fold the egg whites into the lemon batter.
- Divide the mixture between the two prepared cake tins and bake for approximately 35 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the cakes comes out clean. I recommend checking the cakes after 30 minutes as mine were ready by then.
- Leave to cool on a wire rack and remove from the tins as soon as the tin is cool enough to handle.
- Now make the lemon curd: Place the lemon zest and sugar in a bowl.
- Whisk together the lemon juice and eggs and pour over the sugar.
- Cut the butter into little pieces and scatter over the top.
- Place the bowl over a pan of simmering water (or use a bain marie pan if you have one) and cook for approximately 15 minutes.
- Stir occasionally but not obsessively until you have a golden, thick curd.
- Remove from the heat and leave to cool.
- To assemble the cake: Take one of the sponges and spread 2-3 tablespoons of lemon curd over the top.
- Add the remaining lemon curd to the whipping cream and beat until thick and fluffy.
- Spread approximately a third of the cream on top of the sponge with lemon curd on it and sandwich with the other sponge.
- Use the remaining cream to cover the top and sides of the cake.
- Decorate as you wish
- Bask in glory at the wonderful thing you have made.
- Eat.

Matt Huddle needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 186 designs submitted by 27 freelance designers.
"Phase1" or "PhaseOne" - both versions preferred
Phase One Pty Ltd is a Specialist Telecommunications Recruitment Consultancy owned and operated by two industry experts.
Having worked within the recruitment industry and specialising in the Telecommunications sector for several years, the directors of Phase One have experienced several large infrastructure build projects. Working for various consultancies has allowed the directors of Phase One to learn from a wide range of experts in different approaches to recruitment, and gain a good reputation amongst clients and candidates. This has placed Phase One in a superior position for the moment it becomes operational.
"Phase1" or "PhaseOne" will be a niche agency that truly excels in its field of telecommunications and is well recognised in the industry.
We are mainly focusing on the National Broadband Network (NBN) which is the largest Telecommunications Infrastructure project in the history of Australia. This project involves connecting fibre optic cable to every residential premises in Australia and will take up to 8 years to complete with a budget of $43 billion dollars. We are also specialists in the field of wireless telecommunications, i.e. mobile phone networks etc, so we will also be recruiting in this area. We will be servicing companies like: Nokia Siemens, Ericsson, Huawei, Kordia Solutions etc.
The logo must be clean, crisp, modern and professional.
No clipart or cartoon.
Design includes an icon/symbol that can stand alone. But should work with the complete brand name as well.
The logo must work well on web, business cards and stationary.
We have no requirements for colors, shapes or fonts, be imaginative.
If possible we would like to see a logo for both Phase1, and PhaseOne - they can both be the same but obviously having the different ending. We do not want a logo that incorporates tacky symbols like telephones or mobile phone towers, in fact it doesn't even need to resemble telecommunications (although can do) but needs to have high definition, impact, simplicity, punchy, and makes a real statement.
No need for slogans or statements underneath the logo as we will add that later. Have no ideas about colour schemes at this stage so we will leave that up to the imagination. Feel free to email me for some examples of logos that have been made up by friends already that haven't hit the mark, although one is sort of close: (firstname.lastname@example.com), however we are really welcoming totally fresh ideas with some imagination and professional feel.
Find out how a design contest works or learn more about our logo design services.

Organic (F1) Squash Seed
Product ID: 3855G
Product Images
Yellow organic patty pan.
Prolific yielder of shiny, yellow, scalloped squash fruits, with light green on the blossom end. Amount of green may vary depending on the level of heat and plant stress. Widely adaptable. Open plant for easy harvest. Organically grown. Avg. 5,700 seeds/lb. Packet: 30 seeds.
Additional Information
SCIENTIFIC NAME: Cucurbita pepo
CULTURE: Fertile, well-drained soil with a pH of 5.8–6.8 is best. Plastic mulch and fabric row covers (AG-19 grade) can aide plant establishment and exclude insect pests during the seedling stage. Row covers should be removed when plants begin to flower. Poor fruit development may indicate insufficient pollination. For highest quality fruit, succession plantings every 2-3 weeks may be needed.
PLANT SPACING: Space plants 18-24" apart in rows 6' apart. Wider spacing may allow for easier harvesting.
DISEASES AND PESTS: Common cucurbit diseases include powdery mildew, downy mildew, bacterial wilt, and phytophthora. Avoid problems with adequate soil drainage, good air flow, insect pest control, and crop rotation. If necessary, check with your local Cooperative Extension Service agent for specific control options.
HARVEST FRUIT: For some varieties, it is common for the first fruits to be malformed, wither, or blacken, which indicates poor pollination and is usually remedied as more male flowers appear. Harvest regularly, 2-3 times a week, once plants begin to produce. Cut or gently twist off fruits when they have reached the desired size. For zucchini, 6-8" long; summer squash, 4-6"; and patty pan and round, 2-3" in diameter. Handle with care to avoid scratching fruits.
HARVEST BLOSSOMS: Harvest male blossoms (with thin stems) or female blossoms (with thick stems and an immature fruit at the base of the flower) in mid to late morning when fully open. Clip flowers 1-2" below flower base. If a squash fruit crop is also desired from the same planting, only harvest male flowers, leaving a few to pollinate the female flowers.
STORAGE: Keep fruit at 40-50°F (5-10°C), 95% relative humidity for up to 2 weeks. Use as soon as possible for best quality.
DAYS TO MATURITY: From direct seeding; for days to maturity from transplanting, subtract about 14 days.
AVG. DIRECT SEEDING RATE: (At 3 seeds/ft., rows 6' apart) 250 seeds/83', 500 seeds/166', 1,000 seeds/333'.
SEED SPECS: SEEDS/LB.: Zucchini: Avg. 3,400; Yellow Summer: Avg. 5,500; Specialty: Avg. 4,500.
PACKET: 30 seeds (unless otherwise noted), sows 10'.

Robert L needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 48 designs submitted by 24 freelance designers.
Healthy Way Waterproofing & Mold Remediation, LLC
I am 45 years old & have been in this industry since 1993. I have successfully helped two other companies become the 2 top companies in our industry. I am tired of having other people predicate my income & future. That's why I'm starting Healthy Way.
The niche of Healthy Way is that we provide the only 100% solution to both water & mold issues in a basement or crawlspace. Secondly, our warranties are second to none. Most companies I'll be competing with do not take the necessary precautions to prevent mold & dust from spreading into the rest of the home while they're performing the work. Healthy Way has designed a method to not only alleviate the water & mold issue but to prevent the problem from spreading. Hence, the Healthy Way!!
Our target audience is homeowners. The age range will be from 30 to 70. Income levels are from middle class & up. I'll be servicing the entire state of NJ with goals to expand privately or franchise.
I want a logo that stresses the "healthy" in Healthy Way or one that let's people know what we do. Preferably it achieves both. I want it to be a logo that can be used in branding the company. There is not a company in my industry that has a household name or a logo that people know. That's what I am looking to achieve!

Originally i was actually thinking of showing more of the body, but i went for the face instead. It's nice to see how it could turn out. The body and the rest added blends in nicely with the head The only thing i can see is that maybe his shoulders could be wider? And maybe less space over his head. Great work, Beet.

Breast cancer survivor stories: Dana Mattingly 'wouldn't trade' her experience
In 2004, Dana Mattingly was playing racquet ball with her daughter, when the ball hit her on the side of her breast. The injury bothered her for a while. She started to suspect there was something else going on. Mattingly went to get it checked out, and her physician removed a mass from her breast in January 2005.
Lab results revealed the mass to be a malignant tumor.
Mattingly discovered she had breast cancer a month before she celebrated her 33rd birthday.
She endured a second surgery, which included the removal of part of a lymph node. Chemotherapy and six and a half weeks of radiation therapy followed.
Six years and eight months have passed since physicians have found any sign of cancer in Mattingly.
The primary emotion Mattingly felt throughout this process and afterward was fear. When she was sick, she was afraid she would never see her daughters graduate from high school. She feared she would never get to help pick out a wedding dress or even a prom dress for her children.
Now, one of her daughters is engaged to be married in May.
After her cancer experience, Mattingly feared her children would someday be affected by the illness. What sustained her were her faith in God and support from her family.
Mattingly said she wouldn't be able to get through life without these two things, in addition to the support from some close friends.
"I have the greatest family and friends in the world," she said. That's the advice she gives to women who are going through what she did six years ago: "Surround yourself with positive, loving and caring people."
Now, she joins some of those family members and friends on a Race for the Cure team every year, in Mattingly's honor and in honor of a friend who died of breast cancer.
Mattingly believes the illness gave her new perspective on what's important and what's not.
"I wouldn't want to go through it again, but I wouldn't trade it."

Future research topics
From Erights
- Develop a translator from E to some formalism that's good for reasoning about authority, such as SCOLL or perhaps an appropriate process algebra. This would have obvious connections to language design and translation, as well as some mathematical / formal analysis leanings. One might even be able to consider this in the context of proof carrying code -- E modules carrying proofs about their security properties would be an interesting thing indeed.
- Investigate the connection between E and the work on using type systems to enforce capability security ala "lightweight static capabilities".
- Take up the CapDesk mantle and build a robust POLA desktop on top of E, using available tools such as Plash or other permission-limiting application environments in order to allow the integration of legacy applications. This would likely also include looking at how existing application launching and packaging frameworks can be leveraged (such as the XML .desktop files used by GNOME for example)
- Complete the E-Native work, which would result in an E runtime environment that isn't layered on top of another runtime environment (e.g., JR, Lisp, Squeak). Unique Research Contributions:
- Develop a VM (OCVM?) that embodies object capability semantics
- Implement the OCVM in a verifiable language (e.g., BitC)
- Develop the Kernel-E AST to OCVM compiler
- Develop a (verifiable?) native implementation of CapTP
- Re-implement COUGAAR [1] in E to show how object-capability security and promises can be used to simplify and secure distributed, concurrent agent planning systems. Unique Research Contributions:
- Intrinsically secure distributed agent system
- Early (first?) large-scale E (object capability) application
- Worked example of applying object capability patterns to the design of a large distributed system

Sometimes I repeat things that I think are important (or because I have forgotten that I already said them). Here is another repeat subject.
When you practice Karate, you should not wear any jewelry. This is primarily for safely issues but also out of a sense of modesty and austerity.
Would you like to wear earrings when you train? If so, how will you feel when your earring gets stuck to someone's gi and your earlobe is ripped off or torn? How will you feel with an ugly scar? How will you feel when you have to pay for it?
Would you like to wear a ring? If so, how will you feel when you scratch your partner's eye? Or when your ring gets caught on your partner's earring and you rip his/her hear lob off? And then, when the blood is dripping from your partner's ear, how about when he/she goes into shock, passes out and hits his/her face on the corner of a wall and knocks out some teeth? It happens.
Would you like to wear a necklace? I think you see where this is going.
And with any injury there is the issue of blood. Let's just say that in today's world, another person's blood is the equivalent of toxic waste -- don't touch it.
When you train, you should wear no jewelry at all.
And when you wear your gi in non-training situations, you should not wear any jewelry either. It is just not right. Your gi is not a Halloween costume. When you are dressed in your gi, you are dressed for training, so wear no jewelry. Are you afraid that you will look less attractive? Why are you worried about this when you are wearing your gi? Shouldn't you be worried about developing skill, refining your character, assisting your Sensei, and helping your fellow students?
I don't wear a watch or ring. The only metal I wear are my glasses. Why no watch? Because my cellphone always has the time.
I don't wear any jewelry because in my mind, I am always practicing Karate.
Man, woman, boy or girl -- wear no jewelry when training and/or wearing your gi.

Bayern Munich's future, and, in all likelihood, their next wave of success, is now secure. The announcement that Pep Guardiola will be taking the reins in the summer has ensured that. But there is still much to worry about in the present.
After their record-breaking start to the Bundesliga season under current coach Jupp Heynckes last year, the Bavarians got 2013 off to the perfect start - a 2-0 win over Greuther Furth last Saturday.
But it is all eerily familiar. Last season, they also held a seemingly unassailable lead going into the second half of the season but let it slip away, with Borussia Dortmund claiming their second straight title. Further disappointment followed - BVB also beat Bayern in the DFB-Pokal, before Chelsea triumphed in the Champions League final.
With Heynckes, a legendary figure in German football, set to retire at the end of the season, they will be particularly wary not to suffer the same fate once more.
Previous mid-season announcements of retirement, such as Sir Alex Ferguson's aborted plan to leave Manchester United in 2002, have backfired and left the team floundering. Guardiola himself knows of the potential pitfalls, with his Barcelona side having fallen away at the end of the season when it became apparent that he would leave the club.
It was telling that they kept the confirmation of Guardiola's appointment secret for a month - they did not want to destabilise the team, but both club and coach had enough of the endless speculation concerning the 42-year-old's future, according to his agent.
Sensing the danger, Heynckes has already marked his territory, telling his players to ignore all the hype about the Catalan as they enter a critical six-week period which will define their season on all three fronts. According to Dr Rhonda Cohen, a sport psychologist for the London Sport Institute at Middlesex University, his words are wise ones.
"The wind of change is always difficult and it requires the team to become unsettled and then re-adapt. When leadership is similar then this adaptation can be smooth, however, when there are different styles then transition is more time consuming," she told Goal.com.
"When you've worked for the best, then it is easy to drop back and figure that things will probably not be like 'the good ole days' however a team isn't just about the coach. They are a cohesive squad who have had their best-ever start.
Bayern's next six weeks
|Stuttgart (a)
|Mainz (a)
|Schalke (h)
|Arsenal (a)
|Bremen (h)
|BVB (h)
|Arsenal (h)
"What they need to remember is that a change of driver doesn't have to mean a slowing down in their momentum - a new driver may drive differently however together they can push the accelerator towards success."
Another nagging doubt which is almost certainly at the back of the players' minds is a potential switch in styles when Guardiola takes over in the summer. His Barcelona side played an overtly different style of football to Heynckes' Bayern, and there has been a wave of speculation about new arrivals as Pep looks to mould the team to his own vision.
The likes of Arjen Robben and Mario Gomez, established Roten stars, are seemingly incompatible with Guardiola's system, but Cohen believes that all players will have a future in the team if they react to the news in the proper manner.
"Some of players will run for cover and others will rush out to embrace the change," she continued. "Players may be worried as that the 'goal posts' are changing, however change requires taking on board new ways of working.
"The best thing to do is not to fight change as it wastes a lot of energy. They can take current skills and integrate them with a new style of play then they may formulate an even newer and stronger team.
"The only thing you can ever count on in football or sport is change! That's what makes the game exciting to watch."
Despite the positive result against Furth last week, Bayern were far from their brilliant best, and they face a potentially difficult trip to Stuttgart on Sunday. They thrashed their southern rivals 6-1 at the Allianz Arena earlier in the season, and a similar performance against the Swabians would help them settle any nerves.
After last year's disappointment, it would be a tragedy if Bayern failed to give Heynckes a send-off befitting of his career.

The study of politics is, at its best, a lively and engaging endeavor. Few significant political controversies have been resolved with any sense of finality.
In my courses, students are expected to weigh in on these timeless debates. To that end, my courses are characterized by assignments and class discussions that require students to engage in critical reasoning, analysis and argumentation. In addition to Introduction to American Politics, I regularly teach classes on Law and Courts, Constitutional Law, and the American Presidency. These courses reflect my own research interests, which focus on the intersection of law and the U.S. presidency.
I am particularly interested the development of presidential legal policy and in the role played by executive branch legal officers (White House counsel, Attorneys General, etc.) in American national politics.

Our guides do warn us, if there is something that we really shouldn't be messing with, we get the warning signs, through some "gut instincts," others through emotions like unexplainable fear, bad vibes, and so on.
I was taking a short-cut through a forested park and a thought in my head said "Get out of here NOW." I walked straight and steady to my house and realized that I had been saving time at the risk of my personal safety. As to whether the danger was from beings on one side or the other of the veil, I didn't ask. I just got out of there, respecting the feeling sent to me.
I do appreciate Freda, although I haven't tried yet to start any dialogue with her. I am enjoying my research into Heathenism, but so much of what is written is either reconstructed from slender threads of information left from the old beliefs (of which there were many variants anyway) or new belief systems.

This photograph of Kate Maria (Shumway) Russell may have been taken just after the birth of her only child, Janet Lucretia Russell, in 1886. Kate had grown up in Webster, Massachusetts, where this photograph was taken, and she may have decided to have her child at her family's home. She is wearing an elegant winter dress, a dress that is fashionable but reserved. It is suitable for a prosperous, married woman. William Russell worked for the International Paper Company in Turners Falls, Massachusetts. Eventually, the family moved to New York City, where William worked his way up in the company. Eventually, he became an executive (the auditor of the company), and by the late 1890s they were able to afford to spend the summers in Turners Falls.

When Miley Cyrus took to her Twitter page to announce that she "wanted to let yall know i am making a hugggeee announcement at 7 am tomorrow. cant wait for yall to hear the news," we thought it would be about her upcoming world tour. It turns out that the teen superstar is joining forces with fashion great Max Azria, the mastermind behind BCBG and Herve Leger, to design an affordable line for Walmart. Many of the Miley Cyrus and Max Azria looks are inspired by Miley's rock-and-roll roots. Pieces will include tops, pants, graphic tees, shoes and accessories, all priced under $20! "I love creating looks that are all about personal expression and individuality," said Cyrus. "Collaborating with Max Azria has been an amazing experience, and I'm really excited about launching this line with Walmart. There's even more to come!" She's even her best model!

Some great articles I've come across in the past few days:
- Ihra has begun a great series on How to Heal A Battleground, which is good, because let's face it — I have no clue how to heal one. Well, I have bandages, but they don't count.
- MoodylonerDK has put out some nice Tips on Leveling your New Death Knight.
- Psynister has started both Hunter and Druid twinks, and it's always interesting to learn how he does it.
- Arrens continues to get himself into big trouble of the RP kind.
- I'm nowhere near 80 with my Frost Mage, but I'm really happy to read Krizzlybear's take on it becoming a viable raiding spec.
- Fel Fire talks about gearing your warlock in 3.3, which I am kinda interested in right now? But not salivating at the gear grind? Patches are funny like that. But it's a good guide, so consider it bookmarked.
Okay, folks! Back to 3.3!

Christmas time is filled with many different family traditions, ours are very simple... but..., this Christmas my daughter Kimberley decided to start a new 'tradition'. We have talked often about making a Gingerbread House and this year the time was right. Isn't it beautiful! The gingerbread was made and cut to shape, lots of lollies were attached and a few more consumed during construction. Look there are even gingerbread men, red(?) snowmen (we forgot the marshmallows!), mini christmas 'bushes' (the supermarket was all out of mint leaves) and soft snow on the roof. Kimberley had a lot of fun making the house while I watched on busily finishing the binding on a quilt for my brother-in-law for Christmas.
Since I was a small girl my family have had a bit of a Boxing Day Tradition. Santa would bring my sister and me a 'creative' gift like a new jigsaw puzzle or craft pack or 'doing thing'. We would amuse ourselves with these activities while Dad sat and watched the start of the Sydney to Hobart yacht race or the Boxing Day test match, and mum would have some time for herself. I have continued this practice over the years to start a new project, dressmaking as a teenager, joining new Lego pieces together as a mum, encouraging my children to start something new too! These days the theme is usually start a new quilt! Last year it was Mrs Billings, the design plans had been in place for a while and the fabric selected, but, the serious stitching started between Christmas and New Year. This year I have had a few important things to finish first... 2 overdue wedding quilts and one for my brother-in-law for Christmas.
They are now all DONE... so... what do I start next! I have headed back to Kings Crown and drawn a design for the centre applique. I treated myself to some lovely threads awhile ago and have now found a use for them. The day has been spent quietly stitching, watching the cricket and planning the next major project for the year in my head. (I must get that down on paper soon!)
Oh no, while I wasn't looking a little mouse has come along and nibbled at the roof of our Gingerbread House...mmmmm. It's a shame they can't last for ever, I do think this will definitely be a new tradition for our family.
I hope you have had a wonderful Christmas and restful Boxing Day. Did you get a chance to start a new project too!
Until next time,
