We recently caught up with yoga entrepreneur Leah Zaccaria, who put herself through the fire of change to completely reinvent herself.

Some began to stop taking bathroom breaks, worried that if their productivity fell they would be fired.

I suspect the reason is a deep-rooted love of the fire.

Fire was one of the earliest major technological advances for humankind, providing heat, protection, and cooked food (which is much easier to cat and digest)

Human control of fire goes back far enough (over a million years) that evolution could have produced a genetic leaning towards fire as a central aspect of human life.

And a room with books in it induces, at least in some, a feeling not dissimilar to that of a fire in the fireplace on a cold winter's night.

In March its chief executive was fired by Time's current Man of the Year, Mr Obama.

In March, General Motors' chief executive was fired by Mr Obama for poor management

One of the greatest heartbreaks for fire fighters occurs when they fail to rescue a child from a burning building because the child, frightened by smoke and noise, hides under a bed or in a closet and is later found dead.

Saddest of all is when children catch a glimpse of the masked fire fighter but hide because they think they have seen a monster

To prevent such tragedies, fire fighter Eric Velez gives talks to children in his community, explaining that they should never hide during a fire.

He displays fire fighters' equipment, including the oxygen mask, which he encourages his listeners to play with and put on.

Velez and other fire fighters throughout North America, who give similar presentations, will never know how many lives they save through their talks

Why do some children trapped in a burning building hide from masked fire fighters?

What does the passage tell us about fire fighter Eric Velez

He often teaches children what to do during a fire.

He travels all over America to help put out fires.

And I can see myself sitting on a small chair by the fire doing needlework.

Crews had the fire under control in about 45 minutes and managed to contain the fire to its point of origin.

fire investigators have responded to the scene but have not yet determined the cause of the fire.

firefighters responded to a fire Wednesday night at an abandoned mall in Haywood.

firefighters will remain on the scene until later this morning to ensure that the fire doesn't start up again.

It was the site of a 2006 fire and has remained vacant ever since.

six fire engines, two trucks and two chiefs responded to the scene.

The fire department of New York says the vacant 100-year-old building being pulled down partially collapsed.

There were some people inside the building when the fire broke out but there were no reports of any injuries.

After the high-pressure Countdown round at this year's national MathCounts competition, in which the top 12 students went head to head solving complex problems in rapid fire, the finalists for the Math Video Challenge took the stage to show their videos.

Brazil opened a research station in 1984, but it was largely destroyed by a fire that killed two members of the navy in 2012, the same year that a diesel-laden Brazilian barge sank near the base.

Born in fire and fury, Devils Tower was then shaped by the slow, gentle work of wind and water.

It is also easier for a dissatisfied company to give its account to another agency than it would be to fire their own advertising staff.

The action should beconsistent with the firm's guidelines and may include reassigning the employees to new jobs, suspending them temporarily, or firing them.

The picture worsens with each round of El Nino, the unusually warm currents in the Pacific Ocean that drive up temperatures and invariably presage (預示) droughts and fires in the rain forest.

Runaway fires pour even more carbon into the air, which increases temperatures, starting the whole vicious cycle all over again

Each burning season in the Amazon, fires deliberately set by frontier settlers and developers hurl up almost half a billion metric tons of carbon a year, placing Brazil among the top five contributors to greenhouse gases in the world.

His logic: companies that embrace automation might use fewer workers, but that's still better than firing everyone and moving the work overseas.

She may have to be fired for poor performance.

Two employees the Chris hired were stealing, and he had to fire them.

The workers on strike were all fired.

As part of the upgrading of its rail yard, Kasselman, who is an inventor and self-proclaimed "steam visionary", is campaigning for a new steam train that runs without any fire and could run on an existing ten- kilometer line, driving tourists and perhaps

But less than a month before hand, inspectors found significant problems with the fire safety system and push the opening back again to 2013.

Probing the rock pools of a local beach or practising French on a language exchange can fire children's passions, boost their skills and open their eyes to life's possibilities.

This would generate steam that could be used to fill tanks on a small steam train without the use of fire.
