	Frontline
		A frontline is a line of confrontation in an armed conflict[?], most often a war.
		On either side of the frontline stand the forces of the various combatants.
		In modern warfare, due to the broken nature of mechanized combat, frontlines rarely form; instead a zone of confrontation comprises a wide band where forces engage in battle.

	Australian Programming
		Perhaps the finest hour in Australian television was the broadcast of "The Moonlight State" on 11 May 1987 when Australia's premier investigative journalist, Chris Masters, demonstrated on film the illegal booze joints, the prostitution, and the gambling dens whose existence had been long denied by the self-righteous government of the state of Queensland.
		Thus deprived of Australian stories on the screen, when the 1970s Renaissance occurred, the subject of the programming tended to be the indigenous classics, and contemporary themes which depended on a distinctly Australian flavor.
		The quintessential Australian nation-building myth is that of ANZAC (Australian and New Zealand Army Corps).

	`Desire to succeed is important'
		Within Australian cricket, the position, forget the individuals, is held in highest esteem.

		More commonly, however, the emphasis is on "families" of television programmes, so each chapter discusses one example of a genre: a topical variety show, a current affairs show, a police drama, a miniseries, a sensational soap opera, etc..

	Australian Humour - Stories from Australia's Culture and Recreation Portal
		Humour is seen in the Australian use of slang, and across media from cartoons in print, as sketches on radio, as comedy series on television, in films and with witty observations of life in Australian literature.
		Television and stage shows such as Acropolis Now and Wogs Out of Work have honed this form of humour to an art, with performers mocking their ethnic backgrounds and traditions.

	Documentary
		The television documentary is an adaptable form of nonfiction programming that has served various functions throughout the medium's history: as a symbol of prestige for advertisers and networks, a focal point for national attention on complex issues, a record of the human experience and the natural world, and an instrument of artistic and social expression.
		In addition to their particular contribution to the television medium, however, documentaries are notable because they have intertwined with wrenching moments in history.

	For a fair formula
		To set up the `target curve' Jayadevan employs a variant of the Australian `most productive overs' concept, which, he says, "was a good idea with flawed execution".
		The scores in each of the seven stages are arranged in the descending order of run productivity and a regression curve is obtained for the cumulative percentage of overs against the cumulative percentage of runs scored.
		In the television discussion programme WISDEN 20:20, one of the remarks made was that the PAR score of 119 in 27.2 overs according to the D/L method was too low.

	Learn to play the Australian way
		SOMETHING quite extraordinary happened last month and I suspect it happened to more people than just me. India were playing a Test series, one that was particularly attractive because a lot of young players were trying to establish themselves, and yet I found myself increasingly drawn towards the telecast of the Ashes series.
		There wasn't too much television around in India when the West Indies were similarly exploring new frontiers, but if that was as good as this then I would happily volunteer to go back in time.
		Don't forget too that at various times in the series, there were small, important contributions from one of the fast bowlers and in that respect, this Australian team is very similar to the West Indies team of the early 80s.
