     * occurs at super speed. To work around this, the orientationWilLChange property is set to YES when the notification
     * UIApplicationWillChangeStatusBarOrientationNotification is posted, and a notification handler block listening for
     * the UIViewAnimationDidStopNotification notification is added. The handler block checks the notification userInfo to
     * see if the delegate of the ending animation is the UIWindow of the label. If so, the rotation animation has finished
     * and the label can be restarted, and the notification observer removed.
