Yeah, I can agree with most of that. As much as some in the media have bagged Pujara, we could really do with someone in his mold to play that anchor role.
R.e. Warner, (playing devil's advocate here, I agree that he shouldn't have been invited back after the ball tampering incident) who do you drop him for? No-one else they've tried (Pucovski aside, who I see coming back in for Harris) has really grabbed the opportunity... Maybe Khawaja could get another go?

Yeah Pops maybe Khawaja...no one is standing out that's for sure, but at Warners numbers and what I believe is the negative effect he has on the playing group attitude wise, anyone should either be given another chance or blooded for future development. You just have to look at the example of Gill for India, he was outstanding and looks a real prospect.
velocityjohnno Wednesday, 20 Jan 2021 at 12:55pm
Well done India, that was a magnificent achievement. Watching the final session very much became like a cliffhanger one day international.
Going into the test I was surprised that a chasing India was not collapsing on the last day with a deteriorating wicket, and I had a feeling they could chase down the score in these last two tests.
They are a class act, and the young players show great promise, Gill was great to watch.
For Australia, it's a profound loss on home soil, but hopefully it'll steel the resolve and make Australia-India test series as important as the Ashes. At times during the tests I was really impressed with how our team has come on, and the series was great competition the whole way through.
tiger Wednesday, 20 Jan 2021 at 2:03pm
Pretty crazy hey. We managed to beat their A team, albeit on the back of the all out 36 aberration. Got beat by their 2nd string team at Melbourne. Couldn't roll their 3rd string team and grovelled to a draw in Sydney. Then lost to their 4th string team at our stronghold, the Gabba. Get that India!
upnorth Wednesday, 20 Jan 2021 at 11:43pm
Probably the best series I've watched apart from the 2005 Ashes and India's win here will be hard to beat. Given the context - a glut of injuries, a stand-in captain and asked to resurrect themselves having been beaten in the opening Test and bowled out for their lowest score of 36. How calm is Rahane? Totally different to Kohli, cool as a cucumber and probably exactly what his team needed given the situation.
Where do Australia go from here? Paine and Langer are joined at the hip so there seems little chance of change but the Australian captain led poorly this series. 'Can't wait to get you to the Gabba' he said to Ashwin in Sydney. "Good evening from Gabba!" tweeted Ashwin, tagging Paine into his tweet. Maybe if Paine concentrated of catching the ball, out smarting his opponents and dropped the arrogance his team would fair better.
Warner is a question mark, probably shouldn't be playing at all but who comes in to replace him? He's on the wane which puts more pressure on Marnus Labuschagne and Steve Smith. Suddenly Australia's batting looks flaky. The quicks seemed to run out ideas, become drained and that is worrying, particularly if Lyon is underperforming, it leaves them exposed.
The most worrying aspect though is the lack of depth. India showed they can find diamonds in their squad and they have more waiting in the wings. Shouldn't be surprising for a country the size of India where cricket is so popular. But where and to who do Australia look for stars of the future?
Pops Thursday, 21 Jan 2021 at 9:49am
Why is it that the all-time classic series seem to be the ones we lose!
Stars of the future - Pucovski and Green are bankers for mine. Jhye Richardson a bit older but very talented. Cummins still young enough, as is Labuschagne. Not seeing to many others to back them up though... Young fella Doran was getting some hype a while back, but haven't seen or heard of him for a while... anyone else?
Spuddups Thursday, 21 Jan 2021 at 12:05pm
Coming from a NZ fan's perspective I was pretty neutral with my support at the start of this series. After all that carry on with Tim Paine VS Ashwin I was firmly in the India camp. Australians are generally very likeable people so why is it that the Australian Cricket team has to sink to such depths of fucktardness? I reckon they should take a leaf out of NZs book and concentrate on playing hard and competitive cricket while leaving the sledging and personal attacks out. It's not the 1970s any more aye. As far as I can tell Australia have a team that's good enough to beat anybody, so why resort to such childish and underhanded tactics?
Brought up playing the game, played competitively for years, followed it eagerly for long afterwards, but gave up on Australia after Ponting's captaincy. Think it was the Indian tour of 2007/08 when they carried on like pork chops: haranguing the stranded batsman at the end of the deciding test, ignoring the opponents when presented trophies etc.
Found it hard to cheer on a team who were even less gracious in winning than they were in losing.
Bunch of underwear models exploiting Australia's 'hard but fair' sporting reputation to carry on like prima donnas.
Pops Thursday, 21 Jan 2021 at 12:26pm
It's pretty deeply entrenched from under-age club cricket up. It'd have to take a long period of effort to change that culture.
Yeah, some pretty poor incidents around that time Stu. Pushing that fella off the podium when receiving the world cup trophy another one that comes to mind.
crg Thursday, 21 Jan 2021 at 1:37pm
Same for me too. I feel fortunate to have played when the true spirit of the game was still present. Ironically it's when Australia achieved its greatest results through that Warne McGrath Hayden Langer et al era that they became the poorest representation of what the game is all about.
I can barely believe I'm saying this, but a part of me enjoys watching them lose these days.
Rabbits68 Thursday, 21 Jan 2021 at 2:50pm
I agree in regard to the straight out arrogance that existed in the Aussie team up to that SA tour debacle. Can't remember exactly what series it was just prior to, possibly a recent Ashes series, when Nathan Lyon stated in a press conference "that we're going to end some careers during this series" (or similar). Fark me. Genuine elite sports people want to test themselves against the best. Just shut up and let your bowling do the talking.
I think it's a bit harsh to completely unload on Paine though. For sure he had two shockers in this series (with gloves and his mouth) but had done a pretty good job since taking over in the worst of circumstances IMO. He immediately fronted up after the Sydney Test and owned it. The true test for Paine and the rest of the squad will be how they respond going forward. Calls for his resignation are ridiculous and such calls are generally made by fans that are sore losers. Most agree that it was a great Test series. It takes two good teams to tango to make a great series.
100% agree that the Aussie team should look no further than the NZ team for how to go about it. They set the bar in all respects with daylight second.....
fitzroy-21 Thursday, 21 Jan 2021 at 2:44pm
I think it is a bit harsh on the Aussies. Yes their apparent arrogance and behavior can be a overbearing at times, but the Indians and Poms have been guilty of it and can match it with them in that department. The culture of confidence and dominance is fairly drummed into them from what I can see. Unfortunately that starts to become all consuming for them.
As for the future up and coming, there is plenty of talent to choose from but in my opinion, they don't give them enough of a chance. They give them a few games to prove themselves and if they don't, they're out. Not enough chance and exposure in the top grade to grow. Whereas the BBL (yes a different format) have some fantastic up and comers that are showing their potential. If the selectors spent some time and effort in some of these youngsters in development, we may see some real depth starting to emerge.
Spuddups Thursday, 21 Jan 2021 at 3:16pm
I agree that India and England have their moments, but it seems to me that it's often when they're playing Australia. I think it's a "can't beat 'em join 'em" thing. Virat Kohli in particular has raised a few eyebrows from time to time, but from where I'm sitting it's usually an outpouring of emotion rather than anything particularly nasty.
Good point Fitz 21...but I think that's one of the major issues. A lot of the talented young cricketers are going the T20 development route and targeting financial returns from the rich overseas leagues and forgoing the long haul/smaller return/higher risk of playing test cricket.
velocityjohnno Thursday, 21 Jan 2021 at 5:47pm
You've all said basically how I feel about the times, and the cultures behind some of the iconic teams. It started in school, the great athletes could do no wrong, there were no rules for them, the arrogance was startling. Those playing who couldn't make the grade of the suddenly-imported stars, got relegated to 2nd or 3rd XVIII and far less training resources. Didn't matter if they lost - only the winning level new Firsts team mattered. The school basked in the glory. Being told you could do no wrong, things were pushed and I believe this has led to some of the sad outcomes for some of the athletes that I knew. This was within a culture of pushing things eg drink/drugs/putting others down that existed anyway. It was acidic. I speak from more of a footy background, but cricket probably the same.
It almost makes you go for the other country's team: but then you realise these players may have similar attitudes.
linez Thursday, 21 Jan 2021 at 6:28pm
Good comment Rabbits, pretty much my thoughts too. Paine didn't have the best series as a captain, but didn't do that bad overall and contributed at important times with the bat.
The thing I like about him though, and the thing I reckon a lot of people are forgetting, is that he took over at possibly the lowest moment in the history of Australian cricket and, up until a few moments in this series, has lead the team's recovery. I just think that should be recognised and rewarded.
But I agree that the entitled, win at all costs attitude is embarrassing and ugly.
On the team itself, I do think some changes are needed. Wade, in my opinion, is not a Test player. Starc can be brilliant, but he seems to be losing the consistency. I wouldn't drop Lyon, but how long has he got left, and who is next in line?
Impressed with Pucovski and Green.
I like Richardson as a bolwer, reckon he would have been thereabouts if he didn't get injured.
And well done India. Thoroughly well deserved win, only disappointed the series is over.
Wonder where it all went wrong for Matthew Renshaw? He looked the goods very early on. Still young enough to come good I suppose.
D-Rex Thursday, 21 Jan 2021 at 7:19pm
Paine was brought in, not for his cricket ability, but for his ability to improve the team's culture. Now that he has been exposed as the worst exponent of the team's bad culture, he has to go.
Another problem is that Cricket Australia, rather than focusing on cricket, wants to appease every minority it thinks has been offended in Australia's history. It appears to think that smoking ceremonies, aboriginal shirt emblems/designs, taking the knee, etc is what cricket supporters want - give me a break. Please leave the social engineering to the ABC.
memo... Thursday, 21 Jan 2021 at 7:47pm
Rabbits.... I do recall reading somewhere (no, I don't know where) that he doesn't mind a sledge. Not writing him off forever, but I'm not sure if he's the guy you want right now given that's true. Also, I don't think he produced when he got his chance.
If recent history has confirmed one
thing, it's the a lack depth that might be the problem going forward.
upnorth Thursday, 21 Jan 2021 at 7:52pm
Agree the next best batsmen is Will Pucovski. Then Travis Head, Moses Henriques? There aren't really enough quality young batsmen in Australia who play 4 day cricket, the long form of the game is being sidelined at the detriment to the Test side.
Renshaw is focusing on the Big Bash as are Peter Handscomb, Joe Burns and the Marsh brothers. Its a bit of a worry looking ahead. Ashes later this year with England warming up in Sri Lanka then away and home tests against India. England have a strong squad, they could afford to rest Stokes and Archer in the first test and still won at a canter albeit after a poor start from Sri Lanka. Some new faces around the team as well. Given India's result here its going to be an interesting year for test cricket.

Peter Handscomb defending Tim Paine? What relevance does he have to the debate? Another sure sign that CA has no idea. Their snub to Australia Day will no doubt be a real winner with ordinary Aussies too, as will barefoot circles and the like.
Spuddups Friday, 22 Jan 2021 at 2:11pm
What Australia need now is an inspirational captain like Alan Border. He took over when the team was at a low ebb due to World Series Cricket and the retirement of Lillie, Tommo and the Chappells. By the time he finished up Australia were world beaters. Basically he laid the groundwork for Steve Waugh and Ponting. A man who led the team by his own hard as nails example. Widely respected in world cricket.
Pops Friday, 22 Jan 2021 at 2:22pm
That ilk are a bit thin on the ground unfortunately. I think the board were hoping Pain would be the nearest thing.
I wonder if Border would have had the same impact now too... took him (and Bob Simpson who has at least as important) a long time to turn things around. We lost a fair bit more than he won in the first half of his captaincy (he's not at all to blame for that - only world-class player in a bad side), but I do wonder if he'd be met with the same patience now.
mowgli Friday, 22 Jan 2021 at 2:28pm
I went along to the Brisbane test. It was goodtimes (@ the Gabba! I still hear her say).
The Indian team did well, though not sure they deserve the heaping praise they're getting. I'd say they won just as much as Australia's batsmen lost it for themselves. Talk about a bunch of wet paper towels.
If I could dictate one change at CA, it would be that if you are selected for a test side, and as long as the team docs deem you fit to play, you stay in the team for that entire series, regardless of how you're performing. It's so obvious that this kind of Sword of Damocles hanging over players heads is contributing to the yips.
If a bloke underperforms in the first innings or test, and all the chat is about "ooooh he better back that up with a ton next test or he should be kicked out!!" ya reckon he won't have that fogging up his mind? I imagine many would bounce back much better because they wouldn't be fretting over making it up. They'd just play their own game, in their own time. Not only that, it'd shut a lot of the flogs in the peanut gallery up too, who get paid far too much to word vomit and speculate about nothing.
Spuddups Monday, 25 Jan 2021 at 6:53pm
I agree. Having faith in the players is important. I remember Mark Taylor going through a couple of dry patches but they stuck with him. Ended his career as one of the greats.

VL, said sword-weilding bloke is on his home turf too!
Shame they didn't get one more run to end the night on a "Richie"...
Poms missed a trick big time I reckon. Did not look at all easy to bat out there (how often do you see a bloke in the 90s getting beaten that often), but they were bowling a touch to short so the ball was doing too much. A metre or so fuller, and a lot of those misses would be catching an edge.

While pundits have been announcing the end of brick-and-mortar for years, I couldn't be more excited about the future. It's part of the reason why I'm so passionate about the idea behind Aisleside – the opportunities are endless for retail brands that are smart about how they leverage digital technology.
Yes, it's true that retail has changed. Ecommerce spending has experienced 15 consecutive quarters of positive year-over-year growth and nearly $5 billion was spent via smartphones and tablets in 2013. But there's one statistic I came across recently that put everything in perspective for me.
Eighty-one percent of Millennials' retail spending occurred in brick-and-mortar stores, compared to only 19 percent online.
Even though it's easy to flick through pages of products on a tablet and have something shipped direct to your doorstep – and especially so for the tech-savvy Millennial generation – when most consumers want something they'll find themselves shopping a brick-and-mortar store.
Think about your typical day. How many things are you paying for in person versus orders placed online? You fill up your car at the gas station and swipe your card. You stop at Starbucks for coffee and swipe your card again. While you're out for lunch you stop by the office supply store to pick up more of your favorite pens – you're not quite sure where they always drift off to. And finally, on your way back home for the day, you realize you forgot something during your weekly grocery trip and end up swinging through Target to grab it.
You just shopped your way through four different retail experiences. Could all of that be replaced with ecommerce? Some of it, sure, if you're a rigorous planner and can anticipate real-life's daily surprises, but by and large you'll still find yourself thankful for the store down the street.
Ecommerce companies have found new ways to do things. They're able to offer customers more choices. And they can often undercut brick-and-mortar on prices – they simply don't have the same overhead. But what they can't do is beat the physical experience.
Warby Parker, an industry darling in the ecommerce world, made waves with their unique business model. They sell sub-$100 eyeglasses direct to the consumer. Their website is loaded with all sorts of features, including a virtual try-on service that'll help emulate what you'd look like wearing a pair of their glasses. And if you're not satisfied with that, you can have a box of five frames shipped to your home to try on personally – but even that is not enough for Warby Parker. Since launching their website in 2010, they now have four physical stores and 12 stores-within-a-store across the country, all helping to give customers a chance to experience their brand live.
We can create really special experiences online, but there's nothing quite like walking into a physical space, a world we've created.
And Warby Parker isn't alone. Men's fashion retailer Bonobos has opened eight showrooms of their own. And pop-up shops from e-tailers are becoming a regular staple in key shopping seasons.
From the first utterance of the word, the idea of showrooming has haunted retailers. For those that aren't familiar, showrooming is the practice of visiting a physical retail store to examine a particular product, but then ultimately leaving the store and making the purchase online (or in some cases, buying the item from a smartphone while still in the aisle).
Early reports had many retailers worried about the practice. Some might say showrooming is what led the charge for so many to offer online price matching this past holiday season; they simply couldn't afford to miss out on the sale. But smart retailers like Target are actually embracing showrooming head on, seeing it as an opportunity as opposed to a threat.
[A]t Target we believe our stores must offer exceptional experiences. Fully embracing showrooming means seamlessly integrating the physical and digital worlds to exponentially improve the guest experience.
And still, more recent studies say showrooming isn't the top threat to brick-and-mortar. In fact, some reports would actually show that the opposite of showrooming – called reverse showrooming – may be more true of the way consumers shop.
Whether you believe in showrooming or not, the fact of the matter remains: technology is changing the way people shop and the way retail sells. This is your chance to change with it.
Our relationships with technology and digital devices aren't going away – it's likely they're actually growing stronger. Will you look at the future and see possibilites, or will you be plagued by complacency?
What do you see as the biggest opportunities at the intersection of digital and physical? I'd love to see your comments below.


A recently-announced smoking ban in public places, including restaurants, cafes and hotels, but exempting shisha parlours, is a positive step, according to Moevenpick.
Originally there was a fear the could have a negative impact on F&B businesses, but Ali Al-Hajeri, ministry official, has said the ban does not apply to designated smoking areas in cafes, restaurants and malls as long as these areas are separate from their immediate surroundings.
Director of sales and marketing at Mövenpick Resort Kuwait al Bidaat, Mohamed Ibrahim, said: "The ban has not yet been officially issued, but it will not affect smoking in outdoor areas - it will restrict smoking cigarettes and cigars indoors.
"I do not think it will affect our business at all, in fact I think it is a plus point. We are a certified Green Globe hotel, a certification we got last year, and the non-smoking policy will help enhance our image."


Gorgeous blush tones paired perfectly with the natural elements at Higuera Ranch for Kayla & Brett's rustic California wedding.

Blush and white flowers filled the bouquets for this rustic California wedding.
From the photographer: Kayla chose blush, greenery and gold details. She created table numbers and which had different airport codes on the back, which she and Brett met at while dating.

Budweiser Won't Have A Super Bowl Commercial For The First Time In 37 Years
Budweiser announced that it would not be airing a Super Bowl commercial for the first time in more than three decades. Several other brands have also announced they'll be sitting out the Big Game this year, including Pepsi and Coke.
Budweiser confirmed the news in a tweet, saying that "instead, [they're] helping to safely bring America back together again soon." A video set to the song Lean On Me, shows images including people connecting virtually during the COVID-19 pandemic, Black Lives Matter demonstrations by NBA players, and healthcare workers getting vaccinated, and ends with the brand saying that it will be using its ad dollars to raise awareness of the COVID-19 vaccine.
For the first time in 37 years, we aren't running a commercial during the Super Bowl. Instead, we're helping to safely bring America back together again soon. Watch to learn how. pic.twitter.com/vpfnqDoDMK
This means that the Super Bowl will be missing a commercial from Budweiser for the first time in 37 years. According to the Associated Press, Anheuser-Busch will still be advertising brands like Bud Light, Bud Light Seltzer Lemonade, Michelob Ultra, and Michelob Ultra Organic Seltzer during the broadcast.
This news comes as other iconic Super Bowl brands announced they will also be opting out of the broadcast as well. The AP reported that PepsiCo will not be airing a Pepsi commercial this year in order to focus on the halftime show, which is sponsored by the brand. Mountain Dew and Frito-Lay products, both owned by PepsiCo, will still be advertised. Coke will be opting out of a commercial this year, as will Super Bowl mainstay Avocados from Mexico.
Experts interviewed by the AP cited concerns about everything from high advertising prices during a tough economic time and risky filming conditions during the pandemic, as well as a news cycle that changes seemingly by the second as potential reasons why many advertisers might be opting out. However, there will still be plenty of commercials airing during the game, including those from M&M's, Pringles, and the other brands mentioned above.

The current system of funding undergraduate education means that costs to government are highest for subjects where graduates earn the least, and lowest for subjects where they earn the most.
This is an unintended consequence of the English loan-based system, which costs taxpayers about £9 billion per cohort of undergraduate students, and in which only the highest-earning graduates pay most of their student loans back and low-earning graduates do not.
This means that taxpayers provide bigger subsidies to students who study arts and humanities – which typically result in relatively low earnings – than to those who study many science and engineering courses. For example, on average creative arts degrees (studied by 37,000 students per year) are about 30% more expensive for the taxpayer than are engineering degrees. The reverse would be true if we still had the funding system that was in place 20 years ago.


Give your ears some love! These tassel chandeliers are super lightweight, lead/nickel compliant, & have a 4" drop! These are intricately made & look like a much more expensive piece! Choose from Black or Taupe- both have gold thread woven throughout!


It's one thing to be called pretty, but when someone describes another person as lovely (for me at least) it connotes and entirely different perception. One that's more … heck, I dunno, much more muchier, I guess.
Similarly, when an individual is described as elegant rather than sophisticated, I'm more likely to picture a refined Coco Channel or Grace Kelly type than I am a Law & Order suit donning district attorney.
Muchiness: The innocence and imagination that appears in the hearts of young children. As they grow older, they become more mature, and gain responsibilities. They lose their muchiness.
Today's post inspired by my thesaurus-like brain and the Daily Prompt: Elegant. Now go find your muchiness!
Previous Want to know why The Wiggles were always so darn happy?
Love this post! A right click brings up my much used thesaurus.
"pretty" can indicate a skin deep appeal. "Beautiful", "lovely" and "wonderful" seem to indicate a deeper beauty. I'll make sure to check my thesaurus before complimenting someone!

Q: Does react-router support relative links? I'm on this url:
/path1/path2

Then:
<Link to="path2/path3" />

With this code the address in the address bar is changed to:
/path1/path2/path3

It seems to have worked: it has gone to the last / and added the new path to that. But, in fact, while it changes the url in the address bar no navigation happens.
It looks like Links have to be given absolute urls?

A: As per the API documentation, links must be absolute:
The to property of a Link must be a location descriptor, which is either a string (where it's explicitly stated that

relative paths are not supported

), or an object with a pathname property, which is absolute (by its definition), too.
There is an open issue discussing relative links, which seems to indicate that relative paths may be supported in future.
Everything said here applies to react-router version 2.x and above.

A: Yes. Use the react-router-relative-links library. It was written by Ryan Florence, one of the original authors of react-router.
To use your example, you'd want to use:
{ RelativeLink } = require 'react-router-relative-links'
...
<RelativeLink to="./path3">My link text</RelativeLink>

A: Actually react-router support relative links.
Given URL like /clients/invoice/123 the behaviour is:

https://github.com/ReactTraining/react-router/issues/5127

A: in react-router v4 relative paths are supported. The history library resolves relative paths 'just like a browser would' so that a
<Link to="two" />

or a
history.push({ pathname: '..', search: 'foo=bar' });

at the url site.com/path/one will redirect to site.com/path/two and site.com/three?foo=bar.
However NavLink does not work with relative pathnames because it doesn't resolve it's own relative path (which is nontrivial to do). However there are some community packages for this, but I haven't tested them.
Alternatively, and this is what I do, you can get a match object from your parent Route (or from the context router.route.match) and use it to build your relative to in NavLink:
<NavLink to={`${match.url}/three`} />

this way your component can work independent of it's parent Route(s).

A: It is not supported, but you can easily generate an absolute path:
<Link to={this.props.location.pathname + '/path3'}>

A: Also you can use this.props.match.url because the match object has the url Object which is the currently loaded path (the page you're currently on).
In the end you can chain /path1/path2 and build a dynamic relative path like this this.props.match.url + /path1/path2
Example:
<Link to={{ pathname: this.props.match.url + /path1/path2 }}>Path name</Link>

Q: MathType and LibreOffice Math comparison In my office my team and I are going to type texts in the future which will include mathematical signs. Two programs are being proposed: LibreOffice Writer + Math or Microsoft Office + MathType.
I would like to advocate for the first solution, but I need to know what technical advantages and disadvantages each program has. Compatibility with Ubuntu is an evident and important characteristic for LibreOffice, but could you give some other aspects? As a side question, do you advice any other program, even if not WYSIWYG and thus not my preference in this case?

A: Sorry for providing question instead answer and slightly hijacking, but why is choice limited to LibreOffice Writer?
There are just too many ways on Linux AFAIK to include math notation in a document.
One familiar and light option would be AbiWord, which accepts LaTeX notation and editing:

Other tool (abandoned unfortunately, which I compile from source) that offers LaTeX transcript in many formats through simple drag&drop functionality is ekee:

Hope this post is useful

A: I am a scientist in computational fluid mechanics and I use both: MS Office with Microsoft Equation 3.0 at one of my computers at home, and Libre Office on Ubuntu at work, and at one of my home desktops. And I have never met any difficulties in creating and editing any (even quite complicated) equations. Additionally Ubuntu and Libre are free. But really I am very satisfied with both solutions.

A: TeX people often claim that you can enter math faster in TeX than in MathType. However, they often just say this with no evidence to back it up. Often they have years of working with TeX, try MathType after working with it for 15 mins, and then claim that MathType is much slower.
They also assume because you can pick symbols and structures using the mouse to buuld an equation that you have to. MathType defines keyboard shortcuts for virtually everything and let's you redefine them according to your own scheme. They are much shorter than TeX's keywords so fewer keystrokes are required. Finally, if the user happens to know TeX for an expression, they can enter TeX language for most things.
Many TeX people claim efficiency because they rely on a library of TeX macros they'be built up over time. This increases efficiency by taking advantage of the repetitiveness of most math. MathType has a roughly equivalent feature with its customizable toolbar. It can't do everything TeX macros can do but it has one big advantage over them. You can create them on the fly. Macros mostly require forethought since creating them takes one away from the task at hand. In MathType, if you see that a subexpression you have entered is going to be needed several times later, in the same equation or in subsequent equations, you just select and drag it to the toolbar. Later, when you need it, just click on the toolbar cell and it inserts the subexpression.
My company, Design Science, makes MathType so I am definitely biased. I will say that TeX does a wonderful job of formatting math. And I mean no disrespect to Donald Knuth and the TeX community in general.


Bayou Morning Flake is a very popular Virginia/Perique blend relying heavily upon Old Belt red Virginias combined with a whopping 25% Perique. It's pressed into cakes which are then sliced into easy-to-prepare flakes - robust, sweet and hearty.
It just reeks of everything good about the south.
It's the best smoke for me. Great flavor and not harsh on your throat.
What a great smoke! Something that I think may improve a great tobacco blend, is to dry it out just a little. It seemed a little too moist to me. Only other wish I have is that it would come in bulk.
A nice sliced flake; sweet tin note. Medium smoke as you'd expect. A more robust flavor, nutty but smooth. Bowl gets better as it smokes down. With a good kick at the end. As a novice pipe smoker, I had to remind myself to go slow, as this is a strong flavored smoke. A bit different than the other Va/Pur's I've smoked, but that's a good thing.
This is the sort of Va/Per blend I've been looking for for quite a while, now. I wanted something fragrant, but not sweet; something flavorful, but didn't leave a heavy aftertaste in my mouth. C&D Bayou Morning Flake qualifies on all counts. Bayou Morning is a good alternative for the pipe smoker who's looking for something other than the usual latakia/Balkan blends. Or, for that matter, for the one who's looking for something a little more robust than the usual vanilla/cherry/Cavendish heavy blends. All in all, a smoke to settle back with while reading a good book, or just sitting on the deck in the evening while the sun goes down.

EHT Family Is Donating Stuffed Animals to Kids in Tough Times
Rachel Marie
Credit: Andrea Pugliese via Facebook
About 6 years ago, Andrea and Dominic Pugliese from Egg Harbor Township were inspired to make a difference after seeing an article on Facebook about a little boy named Christian who was battling cancer. All this little boy wanted was a stuffed animal to comfort him during such a hard time. So Andrea and Dominic went to Build-a-Bear Workshop and bought the young boy a bear and dressed him up like an Eagles player, since it was his favorite team.
As their hearts grew, the couple became more determined to bring some love and joy to kids all over South Jersey. So, they decided to get a few more bears and donate them to CHOP.
From there, their initiative and kindness got bigger and bigger, and it DEFINITELY didn't go unnoticed! Friends and family began reaching out asking to help in this Daily Dose of Good. In which case, their passion to help children inspired them to start a non-profit called Built With Love.
Over the years, they've donated to CHOP, Ronald McDonald House in Camden and the two in Philly, Youth and Family Services in AC, CHOP out patient center in Mayslanding, Gift of Life in Philly and St Christopher's in Philly. They also take heavily to social media as they will donate to any child we see on Facebook who is battling cancer, leukemia, or any life threatening disease. But the love doesn't fall short there, if the battling child has siblings they'll normally send one to them as well.
Andrea and Dominic also have 3 young boys (Tyler, Blake and Noah) who have been a great help in delivering donations and creating relationships with the families of which they help!
This year, they have a new hope: To get enough donations to give some families a free room at a Ronald McDonald House for a year. The goal for this is just a little over $5,500 but with the help of the community, together we can do this and credit South Jersey for their help!
If you're interested in more information on how you can help or would like to donate, check out their Facebook page: Built With Love or email builtwithlovecharity@gmail.com

For the sustainable development of an entity, the strategy and the value creation cannot be analyzed in purely financial terms. Corporations must apply the principle of balanced development through disclosing economic, environmental and social combined aspects. Sustainability reports are sometimes known as Triple Bottom Line (TBL) reports or Triple P (people, planet and profit). A well-known example is the concept of multidimensional performance evaluation focused on the TBL theory. This chapter per the authors presents the fundamental concepts used in TBL reporting practice, ensuring a uniform terminology, and identifies and promotes the best reporting practices used in social and environmental decision making. As conclusion, it was reiterated that the future of TBL reporting is the achievement and the acceptance of a conceptual framework and of normative-pragmatic standards to support a comprehensive and credible reporting of the three dimensions.
Sustainable development policy and practice have attracted considerable attention and debate in the past 20 years. The understanding of and concerns about environmental and sustainable development issues have exponentially evolved over time. Evidence suggests that a focus on reporting economic, social and environmental information results in advantages for financing, insurance, marketing, regulatory treatment, and other areas. In the rapid evolution to a global marketplace, having a set of common rules is critical to facilitating trade. The challenges created by global competition make it imperative for entities to continually rationalize and improve all their resources and processes. This research initiative is based on the evaluation of models for sustainability through an interdisciplinary approach that recognizes the necessity of a new accounting model leading toward advanced forms of decision and responsibility as a communication bridge between the entity and its stakeholders (customers, suppliers, governmental agencies, employees' families and special interests groups). The most comprehensive view on corporate reporting is based on the sustainable development concept. Sustainability reports based on Triple Bottom Line theory involve evaluating entity's performance through disclosing economic, environmental and social combined aspects.
The response to the current needs of society is the multidimensional approach of the simultaneous development of the three joint features. It is obvious that professional bodies should carry out the most important task for the future as it is happening today with the financial reporting. Sustainability reporting has the potential to provide critical information for business analysis that is normally absent from financial reports. This information complements financial reports with forward-looking overview that can enhance the report users' understanding of such key value drivers as human capital formation, corporate governance, management of environmental risks and liabilities and the capacity to innovate. In some circumstances, sustainability performance information already can provide insights to support business analysis and may have relevance within the framework of traditional financial reports. Fully articulating the relationship between financial and sustainability performance will require more time and research to link the performance indicators used for these areas. By consistently measuring sustainability performance over time, companies can strengthen both their internal business practices and their external communication.
At a more general level, the economic environmental and social trends may occur in those sections of financial reports relating to the discussion and analyze of the future risks and opportunities. Several financial reporting regulations worldwide require companies to disclose known future uncertainties and trends that may materially affect financial performance. In the case of certain industry sectors or companies, discussion of sustainability performance would be merited where environmental or social concerns may affect a company's ability to expand operations or where mishandling these issues could lead to significant damage to corporate reputation and brand value. The new codes of corporate governance have increasingly begun to highlight the need for discussion the risks associated with sustainability concerns at a board-level (Caraiani, Dascălu, Lungu, & Gușe, 2007).
The ideas presented above question the extent to which the goals of sustainability can be met through corporate strategy and governance. The presentation of social and environmental information, along with the economic one is extended through the measurement process and it is disclosed through management approach to risks and strategy linked to measurement principles, related to all areas of the Triple Bottom Line concept. The economic, social and environmental goals of an entity may be independent goals, but they should be combined in a model that integrates external factors (environmental concerns, environmental exposure and other facts) and internal eco-control (management control systems of environmental performance) to lead to the global performance of the company (Henri & Journeault, 2010).


Danish racer Peter Kildemand was delighted to defy a hat-trick of crashes to land a dream Kjærgaard Danish FIM Speedway Grand Prix triumph in Horsens on Saturday.
The SGP first reserve, taking part in his home event as a substitute for injured Polish star Jaroslaw Hampel, sent a packed CASA Arena wild as he topped the rostrum ahead of Slovenian runner-up Matej Zagar and fellow Danish international Michael Jepsen Jensen in third.
World Championship leader Tai Woffinden was excluded from the final after being adjudged to have caused Kildemand's third crash of the night on bend three in the first staging of the race.
The Brit left Horsens having extended his lead over Denmark's Nicki Pedersen from nine points to 13, but the night belonged to the robust Kildemand.
The 26-year-old picked himself up of the deck three times. He was excluded after falling under pressure from Chris Harris in heat 12. PK was then involved in a three-man pile-up with Pedersen and Zagar on the back straight in race 18, which saw all three riders allowed back into the re-run.
He got the benefit of another decision from referee Jim Lawrence in the final. But Kildemand was delighted he and his machines came through such a turbulent meeting with an unforgettable result.
The Odense-born rider said: "This is absolutely perfect. It was a tough night. I had to pick myself up off the deck a few times and fair play to the boys in the pits. They got the bikes going again and it was tough work for them.
"The bikes were pretty damaged every time I went down. So it was an absolutely great job by them.
"When I crossed the finish line and I'd won it, it was like time stood still for a few seconds. I'm just so glad.
"Every time I go to a GP, I go to win it. Right now, it's a feeling I want to have more often.
Kildemand paid tribute to Woffinden for a very sporting reaction to his exclusion from the final after the Brit offered a few words of encouragement before the re-run.
Following his heat-18 crash with Kildemand and Pedersen, Zagar battled through the pain of leg and hand injuries to secure second.
He was gutted when the final was halted after hitting the front with a great start in the first staging of the race. But his 12-point haul puts him level with third-placed Greg Hancock in the World Championship standings on 65 points.
Reflecting on a very mixed meeting, Zagar said: "It was an unfortunate night, to be honest. I had a big crash and the final was re-run when I was leading. But overall, I'm happy I didn't get any serious breaks. It's just badly bruised. And second place is good.
Zagar passed Jepsen Jensen for second on the last lap of the final to deny the home fans a dream Danish one-two.
But Grindsted hero MJJ believes his appearance on the Horsens podium could herald a real upturn in fortunes after admitting he has rediscovered the belief and sharpness three years of injuries have cost him.
He said: "I'm just super happy I'm racing the bike and seeing the options. My problem has been I've been looking too much towards the future. I had in my mind that I couldn't crash because I needed to be ready for the next GP or my league racing. I've had that in my mind for a few seasons.
"It's not like I've been super bad for the last few years. But I haven't been good either. I haven't been racing like I know I can.
"I have to believe in myself and this meeting proved me right – I can do better. I think a lot of people believe in me, but I haven't done it for a few seasons and I haven't believed in myself.
"So to do what I did today was nice. There were a few heats where I lost the battles, but I was still in them. I saw the lines and that's the best feeling.
"I've had many bad injuries – a broken neck, both my knees are bad, there's my hand and a lot of other small injuries I don't really see. I had big problems with my hip last year.

Snake Away is made from Napthalene, the same ingredient found in Moth Crystals or Moth Balls. It is usually highly aromatic, disruptive to the senses, and acts as a repellent.
I would not recommend to place it in areas where dogs can directly access it. I would not put it inside an area where dogs roam, such as a fenced in run, back yard, etc. I would place it around the "fence" or the area to keep the snakes out.
We have never had a report of Dogs or any pet being effected by Snake Away in almost 20 years of selling it.

We may still be in April but with the World Cup covering much of the cricketing summer this year, the Royal London One Day Cup begins a month earlier than normal and gets underway on Wednesday.
With the Hundred coming in next year, there is talk that this will be the last time this tournament is played so prominently in the domestic calendar so there should be plenty of competitiveness about the event with that in mind. Hampshire won the title last year and are out to defend it one last time.
The 18 counties are split up into regional groups – North and South. Each team plays the other eight in their group once in the first stage of the tournament and then when that has concluded the top side in each table progress straight through to the semi-finals. The second team plays the third in the other group in a pair of quarter finals with the winners going through to meet one of the table toppers in the semi-finals. The final is at Lord's on Saturday May 25.
Nottinghamshire have been one of the better sides in white ball cricket in recent times and they are expected to head the way in this group but they may not have it all their own way. Yorkshire will have a number of their England players available for much of the competition while Worcestershire ruled in the T20 last season and are capable of taking that form into the 50 over sphere. Lancashire are another team who will have England players at their disposal with improvements wanted from Durham, Northamptonshire, Leicestershire and Derbyshire. Warwickshire are the other team in the group.
Hampshire will attempt to defend their title from this group and it is the section that includes the finalists from last season too in Kent. With Surrey looking strong with many of their England stars available this looks a pretty tough section. Essex usually go well in white ball cricket while Gloucestershire were winners of this tournament just four seasons ago. Sussex, Glamorgan and Middlesex have plenty of improvement in them while Somerset will be fancying their chances after a couple of years of knocking on the door.
Worcestershire were the champions of the 20 over competition last season and the natural progression is for them to compete in this competition. To be fair to them, they have made the semi-final for the last two years and it doesn't take much more for them to go a couple of steps further and win the tournament, especially now they have the taste for winning silverware. They have a powerful batting line up and excellent change ups with the ball. That is never a bad combination so at 14/1 they are my only outright pick in a market which is as skinny as the average skeleton.
I'll take a punt in the South Group on Middlesex to win it. I don't need telling that they have been pathetic in one day cricket for far too long but for much of the group stage of this competition they are going to have their big guns Paul Stirling, Dawid Malan and Eoin Morgan available and Ross Taylor starts the tournament with them too. We've seen excellent pitches in county cricket this season already and I'm not expecting that to change over the next month with the weather that is forecast. Middlesex can be competitive with the ball and they look to have plenty of explosion with the bat. Often in this competition if you get off to a good start you can lap beaten runners in the second part of it. Middlesex look to have the players to do that and 12/1 might be a little big on them winning the South Group as a result.

The race is entirely off-road (there are no roads on the island, so there's not much choice about that!), and will take you from sea level to the highest point of the island with spectacular views across the Firth of Lorne and Sound of Mull.
Craggy Island Triathlon is a fundraiser for the Oban Mountain Rescue Team.
The race will provide a warm (well, we can't promise the water will be warm!) and welcome environment for newbies and triathlon beginners, as well as a tough off-road challenge for those who fancy their chances at the head of the field.
It's definitely not one for the faint-hearted!

One lap. You'll see most of the island on your travels, and have what must surely be the most scenic triathlon bike course in the world. Amazing.

Marin supervisor calls for community campaign…
Marin supervisor calls for community campaign to address global warming
Supervisor Kate Sears. (Alan Dep/Marin Independent Journal) 2016
Traffic through Marin County is one area planners consider a problem for reducing greenhouse gases. (Alan Dep - Marin Independent Journal)
By Richard Halstead | rhalstead@marinij.com | Marin Independent Journal
PUBLISHED: April 21, 2018 at 9:45 p.m. | UPDATED: July 23, 2018 at 11:45 a.m.
Marin County residents are facing challenges in doing their part to slow global warming, despite the best of intentions, according to the county, which studied the issue in preparation for Earth Day.
Marin supervisors huddled for a five-hour workshop on sustainability Tuesday that highlighted their efforts.
What stood out was "all the work we have to do to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions and how the reduction in (greenhouse gases) over the last couple of years has not been anywhere near what we need it to be," Supervisor Kate Sears said in response.
"It's hard to overstate the importance of taking dramatic action now," she said.
Dr. Matt Willis, Marin County public health officer, told supervisors during the workshop that global warming is already harming the health of Marin residents. Increased wildfires caused by the Earth's warming are producing smoke that in turn results in more strokes, heart attacks, and respiratory problems, Willis said. He said warmer temperatures have also promoted the spread of mosquito-borne diseases such as West Nile virus, malaria, dengue fever, avian flu, Lyme disease and typhus.
Sears, who has made climate change her signature issue, proposed hiring a project manager to oversee implementation of the countywide climate action initiative that she has dubbed "Drawdown: Marin." The name was inspired by Paul Hawken's book, "Drawdown," which describes and ranks the 100 most feasible solutions to global warming.
Sears sees "Drawdown: Marin" as a way of engaging the larger Marin community in putting into action many of the ideas in Hawken's book. The plan is to form working groups to focus on six areas: renewable energy use, low-carbon transportation, energy-efficient buildings and infrastructure, local food and food waste, agriculture and carbon sequestration and climate resilient communities.
The project manager would coordinate these groups as well as work with an executive committee, a community advisory council and a green ribbon advisory council.
"As far as we know, we are the first community that is in the process of taking the ideas that are applicable to us from Project Drawdown and trying to make them a reality," Sears said.
County Administrator Matthew Hymel estimates that such a project manager would cost the county about $150,000 a year.
One of the presentations during Tuesday's workshop was made by Dana Armanino, Marin County's sustainability planner. Armanino said the good news is that between 1990 and 2016, the most recent year for which data is available, unincorporated Marin's greenhouse gas emissions dropped by about 21 percent.
"However, after significant progress in reducing emissions in 2010 and 2012, we have seen progress slow in recent years," Armanino said. "In 2015 and 2016, the year-over-year reductions were less than 1 percent."
Armanino said the bulk of the reduction in greenhouse gases came from the Great Recession, energy efficiency programs, and people buying their electricity from San Rafael-based MCE instead of Pacific Gas and Electric Co. Fifty-six percent of MCE's electricity comes from renewable sources while PG&E gets 33 percent of its electricity from renewable sources.
Armanino, however, said Marin County won't meet its goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the unincorporated area — a 30 percent reduction from 1990 levels by 2020 — without addressing the two elephants in the room: building energy use and vehicle emissions.
Armanino said in the unincorporated area of Marin, transportation accounted for 36 percent of emissions in 2016 and residential energy accounted for 20 percent. Looking at Marin's countywide emissions in 2015, the numbers are even more stark: transportation accounted for 53 percent of emissions and residential energy accounted for 22 percent.
"The county's blind spot is motor vehicles; ever increasing amounts of driving are resulting in increased GHGs," said David Schonbrunn of Sausalito, president of the Transportation Solutions Defense and Education Fund, during the public comment portion of the workshop.
Schonbrunn said the Metropolitan Transportation Commission's environmental impact report for Plan Bay Area shows that Marin's per capita vehicle miles traveled (VMTs) are increasing.
"Our county is projected to have the largest increase in per capita VMTs of any county in the Bay Area," Schonbrunn said. "Other counties are reducing their VMTs per capita."
He said the Transportation Authority of Marin's plan to put a half cent sales tax proposal on the November ballot for road and highway improvements would only make matters worse.
Marin's participation in Plan Bay Area, a region-wide initiative to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by concentrating housing growth along transportation corridors, was scaled back after residents recoiled at the idea of higher-density housing.
Steve Devine, Marin County's waste management program manager, told supervisors that local efforts to divert materials from landfills also seems to have stalled. The diversion rate in 2016, the most recent year for which data is available, was 70 percent, down from 74 percent to 75 percent in 2015. Zero Waste Marin, a joint powers authority that includes Marin County and the Marin's 11 municipalities had set a goal of 80 percent diversion by 2012 and zero waste by 2025.
Devine said the drop in the diversion rate was likely due to the end of the Great Recession.
"People have money, they buy stuff and they throw it away," Devine said.
Devine said another challenge is "National Sword," China's new customs inspection program, which limits the import of contaminated recyclable commodities. Before implementation of that program, a third of all recyclable material generated in California was being exported to foreign markets and 62 percent of that was going to China.
Devine said, "That is having a severe impact on the recycling industry."
In 2016, Marin disposed of 220,933 tons of waste, the equivalent of 4.6 pounds per Marin resident per day.
Another public speaker, Laura Chariton, director of the Watershed Alliance of Marin, said if every person in the world had an ecological footprint equal in size to the average Marin resident, it would take five Earths to sustain them.

Miller Enjoyed Break Time at Big Break - Chautauqua Sports Hall of Fame
by Jim Riggs
The Big Break VII: Reunion on The Golf Channel will continue for another month, but the reality show was over rather quickly for Silver Creek's Cindy Miller.
Miller was invited back for the reunion program, taped over two weeks in November at the Ginn Reunion Resort in Orlando, Fla., after she had been on Big Break III: Ladies Only in 2005 and was eliminated on the next to last show. But on The Big Break VII, Miller was out on the first show when it took her 14 shots to put the ball on a green from a bunker 82 yards away during an elimination challenge.
When asked if she sees that long bunker shot in her sleep (or nightmare), Miller said, "I do and I don't. Because of all the 14 shots, there were only three that were terrible. The rest of them I would have had the opportunity to get it up and down, I guess."
Then she noted, "An 82-yard bunker shot is the hardest shot in golf."
Miler mentioned she heard from another player eliminated from The Big Break VII player, Bri Vega, who saw Brittany Linicome fail to convert the same shot at the LPGA Ginn Open.
"Brittany won the tournament, so I guess it doesn't make me all bad," Miller said.
But looking back on her two Big Break experiences, Miller said, "The first show, when I needed to hit a shot I did. This one, I didn't hit it bad, I just didn't hit it good."
And there as a good reason, though she won't use it as an excuse, for Miller's quick exit from The Big Break VII.
"For the whole show I just wasn't sharp," she said
At the same time she was to start taping The Big Break VII in Orlando, Miller was also scheduled to be the key-note speaker at the Executive Women's Golf Association national leadership conference in West Palm Beach.
"Two of the biggest things in my life were happening together," Miller said.
She flew into Orlando, started the Big Break show, drove to West Palm Beach and did a full day of speeches and then drove back to Orlando to continue taping The Big Break VII the next morning at 5.
"So I was kind of out of sync when it started," Miller said. "The first day (of competition) I made two swings and I'm in last place."
And she was eliminated on one of the most difficult challenges ever seen on any of The Big Breaks - that infamous 82-yard bunker shot.
"I can tell you if we played 18 holes, I would not have been the first one to leave, but that's not the game," Miller said.
And Miller pointed out that when a player is eliminated, "You can't leave. You have to stay."
So the "eliminated" were put in a different house and they were not allowed to check their e-mail or use their cell phones while the two week taping continued. So what did Miller do?
"I played 27 holes of golf every day and worked on my game," she said. "I think it was a blessing. The dome (where she teaches lessons in Williamsville) was down and the weather was bad (in Western New York), so OK, fine. Twist my arm and I'll play golf every day."
And so did the other players as they were eliminated. And Miller noted it led to some interesting matches, which involved more women contestants that had been eliminated than men.
"The girls kicked the boys' butts," she said about the matches.
And when she wasn't playing 27 holes, Miller was also writing a blog about The Big Break VII episodes.
Everything was quite different about The Big Break VII, that involved 16 contestants, eight men and eight women as compared to The Big Break III, that had 10 women.
"I was very surprised at the format, but I'm glad I did it," Miller said.
And in most of the competitions, the contestants played as teams.
"I didn't care for the format at all, but that's none of my business," Miller said. "I would prefer to win or lose myself. I think the picking of the teams should have been a blind draw. It was stacked from the beginning without a doubt. It's not how good you play, it's are you lucky."
And when she did lose, "I heard a little voice say, 'You're supposed to lose gracefully' and I said, 'OK, I can do that.'"
And Miller did and then sat back and watched - when she wasn't playing 27 holes of golf every day. And what she and other viewers watched was a lot of sniping and feuding among the contestants. There was some of that in The Big Break III, but it appeared it was encouraged in The Big Break VII.
"It's reality TV and a lot of people like drama," Miller said. "And they just don't want to watch golf. If they want to watch golf, watch it on the weekends I guess."
The height of the tensions involved newly married Pam Garrity, who was on The Big Break III as Pam Crikelair. She withdrew after there were tensions with the three other women she was living with and competing against.
When asked if Garrity's withdrawl surprised her, Miller said, "I was and I wasn't. She really wasn't totally committed to being there. She didn't really want to be there."
After getting married on Oct. 7, Garrity was playing very little golf and was taking real estate courses. Despite her lack of playing, she had survived all the way to the seventh episode when she withdrew.
Looking back on her two Big Break experiences, Miller said, "I had a great time at both of them, but No. 3 was more fun, maybe because it was newer. And I still talk to all the girls. We bonded."
Though she didn't win the big prize of an exemption into LPGA events on either program, plus $70,000 in cash prizes and an SUV for winning The Big Break VII, Miller, who already played on the LPGA Tour as Cindy Kessler, still thinks she came up a winner from appearing on both Big Breaks.
I'm still trying to get better and I'm glad I did it," she said.
