Q: degeneracy and duality in linear programming I'm currently learning about linear programming and optimization methods and the most recent subject was duality
I'm trying to understand the connection between degeneracy of the primal and properties of the dual.
We were told in lecture (at least for the case of standard linear programming) that if the primal is non-degenerate then the dual has a unique optimal solution. But this statement wasn't prove and I wasn't able to prove it by myself
I would appreciate some assistant
just to be clear the standard form requires to $\min(c^t \cdot x)$ subject to $A\cdot x = b$ and $x\geq 0$

A: Let $x \in \mathbb{R}^n$ and $A \in \mathbb{R}^{m \times n}$ where the rows of $A$ are linearly independent.
Suppose it is nondegenerate, then there are $m$ components of $x$ which are positive. Denote the set of such indices to be $B$.
By complementary slackness condition,
$$\forall i \in B, x_i(p^TA_i-c_i)=0$$
$$\forall i \in B, p^TA_i=c_i$$
Notice that the columns of $A_i$ where $i \in B$ are linearly independent, hence we can solve for $p$ uniquely.

Billings back with Thunder
Rather than judge his team game-by-game, head coach Rod Jensen is taking a bigger picture approach, breaking the season down to three six-game segments.
And the first of those three segments wraps up on Wednesday (June 13) night following the Langley Thunder's game against the visiting Coquitlam Adanacs at Langley Events Centre.
Both senior A squads sit at 1-4 in the Western Lacrosse Association standings as the season nears the one-third mark.
At the one end of the floor, the Thunder have acquitted themselves nicely, ranking third in goals per game at 10 while also boasting the league's most efficient power play, clicking at 52.38 per cent. Those numbers are compared to the league averages of 9.42 and 39.97 per cent.
JP Kealey continues to shine, leading the Thunder with a dozen goals and 21 points in five games. Tyler Pace (nine goals, 10 assists) and Connor Robinson (five goals, 13 assists) to give the team three top-offensive options among the top 11 in league scoring.
And the offensive is getting a key boost as Garrett Billings makes his return to the WLA after a five-year absence. Billings was a part of the Thunder teams from 2008 to 2013. In his two full seasons – 2009 and 2010 – Billings scored 64 goals and 140 points in just 28 games. For his 42-game WLA career, the 32-year-old has 79 goals and 196 points.
It's on the defensive side where the young Thunder squad have been exposed, allowing 13.2 goals against (league average 9.42) and penalty kill (53.85 per cent vs. 62.02 for the rest of the league).
And in all four losses, it has been a common theme: the opposition's offensive weapons erupting for massive games.
The frustrating part from the coaches' perspective is the fact the defenders are not making the necessary in-game adjustments.
"We need to gamble, send someone over, take some chances," Jensen said last week. "If we get beat fair enough, but don't get beat the same way."

'Heroin for middle-class nerds': how Warhammer conquered gaming
By Alex Hern
Last year saw a bloodbath on the high street. Debenhams closed 50 shops, Toys R Us, Maplin and Poundworld went into administration, and more retail space was lost than in any year since 2008, with 1.9m sq metres closing, according to the property analysts EG. But one retailer beat this trend, reporting profits of £40m in the final six months of the year. In 2017, the same company was the publicly traded British stock that outperformed every other: Games Workshop, a high-street retailer of science fiction and fantasy miniatures, now carries a market capitalisation of more than £1bn.
But how did a company founded 40 years ago with one shop in Hammersmith, west London, become so successful? The answer lies in Warhammer 40,000 – 40k, as it is usually known; a sprawling tabletop conflict game in which two players fight with collectible armies, including the space marines of the fascist human Imperium and the ancient fallen angels of the Eldar, using rules found in a library of 30 or so source books.
If this sounds surprising, it is worth noting that Games Workshop isn't the only part of nerd culture to experience a recent rush of interest. Dungeons & Dragons, the venerable role-playing game, has had its own resurgence since 2014, thanks to depictions in TV shows such as Community and Stranger Things. The rise in "actual play" podcasts such as the Adventure Zone and Critical Role has also helped, as has a focus on attracting new players for its fifth edition.
Tabletop gaming in general is doing better than ever. On Kickstarter, which has taken an influential role in the industry, the category was up 20% in 2018 year on year, raising a total of $165m (£128m). Asmodee, a global board-game publisher based in France, was sold to a private equity firm in July for €1.2bn (£1.1bn).
But Warhammer's success stands out, and to understand why this is, there are a few things you need to know.

The first is the motto of Warhammer 40,000: "In the grim darkness of the 41st millennium, there is only war." In other words Games Workshop is a serious business, but it is not to be taken seriously. In fact, Warhammer Fantasy Battle, a goblins-and-gnomes war game, and Warhammer 40k are ridiculous, over-the-top pastiches, created by people who were bored and angry under Margaret Thatcher, and channelled that rage into worlds where everyone is the villain, and hope has been extinguished for millennia.
Each game exists in its own vast fictional universe, with the entire thing loosely connected by a narrative about the forces of chaos and a fondness for skulls. "Imagine if Disney were founded by a bunch of people who had been primarily inspired by heavy metal album covers," says the writer Kieron Gillen, a longtime fan who has written tie-in comics for the company. "There's a belief that less is more, but what Games Workshop argues, quite convincingly, is that, no, maybe more is more.
"A fundamental 40k thrill is probably something involving a chainsword, which is a sword crossed with a chainsaw. That is over-the-top and silly, but also, in a very heavy-metal-guitar-solo way, exciting."
It certainly was for me. By the time I was a child, growing up around the corner from that first shop, Warhammer was already something of a phenomenon among the sort of crowd who carried 20-sided dice in their schoolbags. Tucked in the back of that small store was a vast diorama depicting an entire chapter of Ultramarines, the 9ft tall, blue-armoured shock troops of the human Imperium of the 41st millennium. The display – more than 1,000 small figurines, replete with miniature tanks, standard bearers and a detachment of motorcyclists – was my personal crown jewels: dripping with symbolism; a must-see for visitors to my area, and just as unattainable.
That's because the second thing to know about Games Workshop is, as Gillen says, that Warhammer was what middle-class nerds did instead of heroin. It was just as expensive, and probably no better for your social life. A small squadron of space marines would cost about £20, a fortune for a 12-year-old; but a full two-player game would need almost 10 times that many units, as well as tanks, bikes and special figures – not to mention huge bipedal dreadnoughts.
I finally managed to save up for a tiny army from the Necron faction, a race of mechanical skeletons who flay their foes with a glowing green "gauss gun". Painting, playing with, and (when I could afford it) buying those models was my life for a few years – until an inexpertly mounted shelf collapsed, smashing the whole army.
But for those fans whose dream wasn't so literally crushed, Warhammer isn't a game, it's a hobby. The Hobby. It's as much about assembling and painting the models themselves, using the special paints, inks and washes created by Games Workshop. It's about sharing your finished miniatures and reading White Dwarf, Games Workshop's in-house magazine. (This magazine is also the only way the company communicates with the outside world; it is notoriously press-shy, and would not be interviewed for this article.) It's about the Black Library, a collection of tie-in fiction that runs to hundreds of novels, as well as comics, video games and a new young-adult book series.

This depth means that former fans never quite leave. Duncan, a childhood fan who returned to the game as an adult, agrees: "It's a bit of everything. There's an easy escapism in reading the fiction, especially now you can do it on a Kindle, and not advertise what you're reading to other commuters. The games themselves are fun and very social.
"But I also like the modelling and painting. I used, as a teenager, to play with unpainted models, but nowadays I enjoy the process [of painting]. It's oddly relaxing; more like meditation than a chore."
At its worst, that fanatical dedication has made followers easy prey for a company eager to line its pockets. But Gillen, whose latest book, Die, is loosely inspired by his own experience playing the Warhammer role-playing game in his teens, says things have changed.
"I used to write these guides on how to make a Warhammer army for £60," he says. "I stopped doing that, partly because I don't need to. Now, you can buy one of the official £50 boxes and you have an army."
For Gillen, the story of Games Workshop's renaissance isn't a story of sweeping reorganisation but a myriad of small changes that have turned a slightly fusty, vaguely mistrusted brand into one that is gaining new players, reconnecting with older ones and profiting – handsomely – from both.
Which doesn't mean there haven't been large changes. In 2015, the company abruptly discontinued its oldest game, Warhammer Fantasy Battle – even publishing in-game fiction that destroyed the world. The replacement, Age of Sigmar, was built to be accessible to new players, with simpler rules. It caused uproar among existing players who claimed the whole thing was dumbed down to the point of stupidity. But three years on, with most of the best changes incorporated into a new edition of Warhammer 40k, it is clear the rewrite paid off.
Anita Widdowson, 20, a student in Nottingham, is one of those newer players. She started collecting the models about two years ago, but only got round to learning to play last year, and credits the new rules with bringing more players on.
"The 'Eighth Edition rules' are much simpler than any previous edition," she says. "It means that casual players and younger children can follow the game well, enticing more customers." But, like Gillen, Widdowson says there are many reasons for the boom overall: better models, easier construction and the way Games Workshop communicates with the community through its magazine, rather than simply offering them a catalogue to buy things from.
The shops themselves have had a cosmetic overhaul (some stores were rebranded to read simply Warhammer, as the chain tried to consolidate its image), but Games Workshop has also put a huge amount of effort into building a welcoming atmosphere. "You know that old reputation of their shops being alienating? Now, it's much more open," Gillen says, comparing the new look to an Apple Store.
Widdowson agrees. "My best experience with the hobby was buying my first ever set of models in Games Workshop in Oxford," she says. "I was shocked by how friendly the staff were, and it really motivated me."
But Games Workshop's success may have a downside for small companies. Adrian Hunter, who runs the games shop Weyland's Forge in Birmingham, says it is steamrollering competitors such as Warmachine and Malifaux. "While the success of all the Games Workshop lines is great – the company is a genuine joy to work with right now – other games … have seen a large drop-off, to the point we're just trying to clear the stock now. And it's not just our store, either."
For Gillen, the only shadow on the horizon is whether the company can maintain the pace it has been setting without letting anything slip. As well as the core Warhammer games, it has been releasing spin-offs at a steady clip. But on that, Games Workshop had its own answer, in an FAQ it published before the launch of the latest edition of Warhammer 40,000. Answering a question about why it should be trusted with the rewrite, it answered: "Come on! This is New Games Workshop™." In other words, it knows it has had its ups and downs, but the steady drip of changes will continue. As is the £16 Eldar Autarch, a winged alien commander I bought while researching this piece. Providing, that is, my shelving is better installed in 2019 than it was in 2002.

Julio Estrada
Born in Mexico City in 1943, Estrada's family was exiled from Spain in 1941. A composer, theoretician, historian, pedagogue, and interpreter, he began his musical studies in Mexico (1953-65), where he studied composition with Julián Orbón. In Paris (1965-69) he studied with Nadia Boulanger, Messiaen and attended courses and lectures of Xenakis. In Germany he studied with Stockhausen (1968) and with Ligeti (1972). He earned a Ph. D. in Musicology at Strasbourg University (1990- 1994). In 1974 he became researcher in music at the Instituto de Estéticas, IIE/UNAM, where he was appointed as the Chair of a project on Mexican Music History and Head of MúSIIC, Música, Sistema Interactivo de Investigación y Composición, a musical system designed by himself. He is he first music scholar to be honored as member of the Science Academy of Mexico and by the Mexican Education Ministery as National Researcher [since 1984]. He created a Composition Seminar at UNAM, where he has been teaching Compositional Theory and Philosophy of Composition.
He has written about a hundred articles based on his research, translated into English, French, German, Italian and Japanese. He is the General Editor of the most complete publication on Mexican music history, La Música de México [Instituto de Investigaciones Estéticas, IIE/UNAM, México 1984, ca. 2000 p.] He has postulated a General Theory of Intervallic Classes, applicable to macro- and micro-intervallic scales of duration and of pitch. In the field of the continuum, Estrada has developed new methods of multidimensional graphic description of several parameters of sound or ryhthm. The French Ministry of Culture decorated him with the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres (1981, 1986).
"The techniques and theories I have developed are based on mathematics and acoustics; the more neutral they remain, the better they serve the description of the imaginary: it is my ear-there everything is allowed-that gives birth to my music, which becomes the accurate, almost phonographic representation, of every detail coming from my inner hearing experiences."

n the summer of 1997, when the Canadian rock band Rush last toured, no one knew that drummer Neil Peart was about to face one of life's most personal tragedies. Later that summer, word began to circulate around the internet that his nineteen-year-old daughter, Selena, had been killed in an automobile accident. And ten months after that, word circulated again that his wife of twenty years, Jackie, had died of cancer.
During the two years that followed his wife's death, Mr. Peart withdrew from the life he knew, packed his BMW motorcycle and took to the road. His experiences on what he calls "The Healing Road" are chronicled in his new book, Ghost Rider.
Neil Peart is no stranger to the written word. In addition to playing the drums with Rush, he also serves as the band's lyricist. His lyrics tend to look outward rather than inward, leading him away from conventional love songs and toward political fables and thoughtful songs about the role of chance in life, the struggle for integrity in the modern world and other topics.
In 1996, Neil Peart published his first book, an account of his bicycle journey through Africa, entitled The Masked Rider. While that book documented its share of tribulations, it was marked by a spirit of adventure in a distant land. But if The Masked Rider portrayed a man in search of adventure, Ghost Rider depicts a man on the run.
The first ten pages of Ghost Rider present a brief but harrowing account of the night that Mr. Peart and his wife receive the news of their daughter's death. Following her diagnosis, his wife's decline is swift--hastened, in Mr. Peart's view, by the loss of her will to live after their daughter's death.
Mr. Peart is left with no reason to live, no source of pleasure. He leaves his home on his motorcycle, takes to the highway and rides, not because it gives him pleasure, not even to divert himself from his situation, but because all he can do is keep moving.
And he keeps moving, from the east to west coast of Canada, north to Alaska, then south through the U.S. and into Mexico and Belize. Along the way, he is sustained by little but the faith that eventually, "something will come up."
He tells his story through both narrative passages and letters to friends and family. The narrative passages move the story, but it is the letters that provide the reader with a portrait of the man.
Gradually, the traveler begins to see life again. He meets old friends along the way. He sees that he is fortunate to have good friends, including Rush bandmates Alex Lifeson and Geddy Lee. He finds that music begins to give him pleasure again and returns to playing the drums. He wrestles with the guilt that accompanies his growing interest in women. But even that is eventually overcome.
Neil Peart's songs have often been criticized for being too nihilistic. It is therefore ironic that he emerged from a tragic personal loss with a story that, while sad, is ultimately hopeful, even uplifting. But it is precisely because he is not a man given to false optimism that we can believe in his, and in our, capacity to recover from crippling loss.
Neil Peart has since returned from the "Healing Road." He remarried shortly before Ghost Rider was published. Rush reformed in 2001 and is currently on tour with a new CD, Vapor Trails, which many critics regard as their best work in years.
At more than 450 pages, Ghost Rider is a substantial read. Perhaps it could have been even more effective if it were a little shorter. Nevertheless, it remains an exceptionally compelling story and a major step in Mr. Peart's development as a writer.

Criminal justice, Administration of
POLICING THE CITY: CRIME & LEGAL AUTHORITY IN LONDON, 1780-1840
by ANDREW T. HARRIS
The Ohio State University Press, 2004
Library of Congress Classification HV8196.L6H377 2004
Dewey Decimal Classification 363.20942109034
In Policing the City, Harris seeks to explain the transformation of criminal justice, particularly the transformation of policing, between the 1780s and 1830s in the City of London. As utilitarian legal reformers argued that criminal deterrence ought to be based on certain and rational punishment rather than random execution, they also had to control the discretionary authority of enforcement. This meant in theory and practice the centralization of policing in the 1830s, and the end of local policing, which was seen as corrupt, inefficient, and unsuitable for rational criminal justice. Revolutionary changes in policing began locally, however, in the 1780s. Such local changes preceded and inspired national reforms, and local policing up to the centralizing measures of the 1830s remained dynamic, responsive, and locally accountable right until its demise. Anxiety about policing had as much to do with the social origins of the police as it did about the origins of criminality, and control over the discretionary authority of watchmen and constables played a larger role in criminal justice reform than the nature of crime. The national, metropolitan, and City police reforms of the late 1830s were thus the culmination of a contentious argument over the meanings of justice, efficiency, and order, rather than its beginning. Harris's evidence reveals how what we've come to think of as "modern" policing evolved out of local practice and reflects shifts in wider debates about crime, justice, and discretionary authority.
Andrew T. Harris is associate professor and director of the honors program at Bridgewater State College.
"This book is a significant addition to the knowledge and understanding not only of the policing of London but also of shifts in policing strategies and personnel in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries more generally. Harris exhaustively mines the City of London archives, using previously ignored sources to marshal his fresh argument about the London police." —Clive Emsley, Open University
"Known by its first address, Scotland Yard had been portrayed as London's first real police force but never included the City of London proper. Harris updates this argument, covering the growth and development of the institutions in the City of London from the 1780s to 1838, a crucial period for the development of both the concept and practice of police." —Elaine Reynolds, William Jewell College

On the surface, Jeff Nettles' RBI single off the base of the left-field fence in the ninth inning Wednesday night was nothing more than a footnote in a seven-run loss for the Somerset Patriots.
But the truth is that the well-struck baseball – which sounded like a home run off the bat but resulted in his fourth single – was an example of the good and bad of Nettles' season, and perhaps will serve as the starting point for another trademark late-season surge from the traditionally streak hitter.
Nettles, who turned 34 last week, has seen his batting average (.248) and power numbers (eight home runs) dip to the nadir of the 10 seasons since he became an everyday third baseman in 2003. And yet he remains an effective run producer as the only member of the Patriots the ranking in the Atlantic League's Top 30 in RBI (67).
The league's all-time RBI leader and holder of second place in the doubles and home runs categories has changed his method for adding to the scoreboard – he has a team-high six sacrifice flies and an uncharacteristically low number of extra-base hits – even if he hasn't altered his approach.

After months of treading water, the Patriots' season is now dangerously close to spiraling out of control thanks to the Atlantic League's best.
The Lancaster Barnstormers continued their match toward the league's single-season victories record and completed a convincing four-game Friday night with an 8-3 victory at TD Bank Ballpark.
The Patriots, who are five games under .500 for just the second time since the All-Star break, finished 2-5 on a crucial homestand in which they allowed double-digit runs three times and were outscored 40-15 by the Barnstormers.
Blake Gailen's RBI single in the first inning was a sign of things to come for starting pitcher Roy Merritt, who allowed six runs in the inning and eight overall on 12 hits in five innings. He struck out four.
The Patriots scored twice in the eighth on a sacrifice fly by Colin Curtis and a RBI single by Corey Smith and added a run on a fielder's choice in the ninth.

BRIDGEWATER — Not only are the Somerset Patriots in danger of suffering their first ever back-to-back losing seasons, they also are likely to see some of their winning past erased from the record books in September.
The 74-win Lancaster Barnstormers, who Wednesday night visited TD Bank Ballpark, are rolling toward history, needing to finish 13-12 to break the Atlantic League single-season victory record (86) held by the 2009 Patriots and 19-6 to break the mark for winning percentage held by the 2001 Patriots (.659).
The Barnstormers' record-setting pace is the product of a 59-26 stretch that began on Memorial Day — when Jaime Pedroza's walkoff home run beat the Patriots 1-0 in 10 innings — and includes 20 victories in 27 games in August. It is the first 20-win month in the franchise's seven-year history.

In his first appearance on a mound since 2007, slugger Corey Smith tossed a scoreless inning, struck out two and reached 93 miles per hour on the stadium radar gun.
That is where the good news ended Tuesday night for the Patriots.
The Lancaster Barnstormers jumped out to a three-run lead through four innings and added five runs on three home runs against starter Justin Cassel in the fifth inning as the Patriots lost 11-4 at TD Bank Ballpark.
Cassel (5-9) allowed five home runs in 124 innings over his first 20 starts before giving up four to the league's most powerful lineup.
The Patriots, who scored twice in the eighth inning and once in the ninth, after trailing by 10, are now 1-11 in their last 12 meetings with the Barnstormers.
Jeff Nettles had four hits and two RBI in the loss.

BRIDGEWATER – Ryan Radmanovich and Emiliano Escandon are two of only five players to win three Atlantic League championships – but Brian Adams did more than his fair part to make it a group of six.
Radmanovich, Escandon and Adams are No. 4 through 6, respectively, on the Somerset Patriots Top 15 list, which honors the best players in franchise history as voted on by fans, players, coaches and team officials. The first 2,000 fans in attendance for tonight's game against the Lancaster Barnstormers at TD Bank Ballpark will receive a commemorative baseball card strip of the trio.
After playing 25 major-league games, Radmanovich joined the Patriots in 2003, remained a fixture in right field through 2006 and returned to supplement the 2008 championship run.
A two-time Olympian for Canada, he hit .319 with 28 home runs and 89 RBI in 2005 and backed up those numbers by hitting .400 with three home runs –including a majestic three-run tie-breaking shot in the eighth inning of the decisive Game 3 of the South Division Championship Series – during the playoffs.
Escandon, who was the Patriots' everyday second baseman from 2001-20005, was named the first team captain in league history in 2004. He remains the only captain in franchise history.
In addition to commanding respect in the clubhouse, Escandon warranted attention with a strong glove and steady bat. He hit .281 with 275 in 582 games as the model of consistency and still was productive at the time he retired after winning his third title to focus on becoming a local baseball instructor.
Given the chance to be a starter for the first time in his career, Adams burst onto the scene in 2007 when he went 15-2 – including 11-0 at home – with a 3.68 ERA. He was the league's Pitcher of the Year.
Adams holds franchise records for single-season (15) and career (43) victories, though he saved his best for the biggest moments. He led the team to back-to-back titles in 2008 and 2009 – clinching a tough first-round series in Newark – and was equally as dominant in his 2007 and 2010 postseason starts despite the Patriots falling short both times.
The Patriots are still in the hunt for an playoff berth but it is pretty clear how they stack up against the best the Atlantic League has to offer.
Starting pitcher Doug Arguello allowed four runs on seven hits in six innings and the bullpen added fuel to the fire Monday night as the Patriots lost for the 10th time in the last 11 meetings with the Lancaster Barnstormers, falling 7-3 at TD Bank Ballpark.
Carlton Smith gave up three runs on five hits in 1 2/3 innings.
The Barnstormers, who are a league-best 73-41, took leads of 1-0 and 2-1 but the Patriots fought back to tie the score both times. It looked as if the Patriots were going to overcome a 4-2 deficit too when Yunesky Sanchez led off the bottom of the sixth with a single and scored on Corey Smith's triple.
But Joe Bateman escaped the jam in relief of winning pitcher Adam Johnson. Jesse Hoorelbeke struck out and Jeff Nettles grounded into a fielder's choice, with Smith getting thrown out at the plate.

BRIDGEWATER — Regarded as a hard thrower early in his professional career, Brandon Braboy thought he made significant strides with his control during his third season in the Yankees farm system. He just could not stay healthy long enough to get on a mound and prove it to anyone until now.
In the five weeks since he joined the Somerset Patriots, the oft-injured Braboy has gone from a wild card to an ace in the bullpen based on the combination of a nasty fastball and command of the strike zone. He was available Monday night as the Patriots faced the Lancaster Barnstormers at TD Bank Ballpark.
Since the middle of the 2010 season, the 26-year-old right-hander has undergone two hip labrum surgeries and Tommy John surgery on his elbow. He tossed 11 scoreless innings in Yankees minor-league spring training earlier this season before tearing a calf muscle during routine pitcher's fielding practice drills.
The latest injury caused Braboy to get released and consider retirement — a decision that would have been a mistake judging by his results in the independent Atlantic League.
Braboy is 2-0 with a team-best 1.47 ERA, 24 strikeouts and just three walks in 181/3 innings as one the Patriots' primary set-up relievers. He is holding opponents to a .200 batting average that includes marks of 2-for-25 with runners on base and 0-for-8 with runners in scoring position.
The astonishing 8-to-1 strikeout-to-walk ratio calls to mind Patriots' closer Andrew Dobies, a softer-throwing left-hander who signed a Double-A contract with Kansas City last season.
Partial credit for Braboy's dual effectiveness belongs to refining a put-away slider years in the making.
Of course, Braboy's experience also tells him to be cautious. He passed the test of throwing multiple innings — three scoreless Aug. 19 against Bridgeport — but has yet to work on back-to-back days.
BRIDGEWATER — Nobody on the Somerset Patriots was spitting out cliches to downplay the magnitude of Sunday night's rubber game against the two-time defending Atlantic League champion York Revolution.
McCall pitched his best game in over a month and the Patriots scored more than four runs for just the third time in the past 14 games to pick up a 5-1 series-clinching victory in front of 5,186 at TD Bank Ballpark. The Patriots, who recovered from Saturday's 10-0 blowout loss, closed to within 4½ games of the Revolution (24-17, 60-52) in the race for a wild-card playoff berth.
Sean Green, who made 90 of his 264 career major-league appearances for the 2009 and 2010 Mets, retired Saturday from the Patriots after earning the win for striking out six and yielding only an unearned run in a complete-game five-hitter. He wanted to be closer to his family in Louisville, Ky.
The 33-year-old right-hander signed in early July after being released out of Triple-A and went 3-1 with a 1.80 ERA through his first five starts. But Green hit a rough patch as he lost five straight starts between July 29 and informing the Patriots of his decision. Those struggles disappeared Saturday as he blocked out parting emotions.
Brian Anderson, who played five seasons in the majors as an outfielder before converting to pitching, has agreed to terms with the Patriots, according to director of player personnel Brett Jodie. He has not played since making seven Double-A appearances for the Yankees last season.

BRIDGEWATER — More than anyone else in the Atlantic League, Johnny Drennen understood what it was like Saturday night for the Bridgeport Bluefish hitters who stepped into the batter's box – and thus the national sports spotlight – against Sugar Land Skeeters starting pitcher Roger Clemens.
Drennen filled those cleats on June 6, 2006 as a 19-year-old member of the Cleveland Indians' Single-A affiliate. He launched a home run against the seven-time Cy Young Award winner, who was making his first minor-league tune-up start since coming out of retirement to sign with the Houston Astros.
Back then, Clemens was coming off an All-Star season and held a distinct advantage over the professional newcomers he faced. The playing ground was more level this time as Clemens, 50, had not played professionally since 2007, and the Bluefish have former seven major-league hitters on their roster.
Included in the crowd of 9,222 was Drennen's mother, who watched her son, a former first-round draft pick, win a battle with "The Rocket" in the first inning.
The next few days of Drennen's life were full of radio appearances and interview requests – which forced the magnitude of the accomplishment to sink in – but the moment he remembers most vividly came courtesy of Clemens.
The Skeeters-Bluefish game was scheduled to be aired in its entirety on ESPN Classic, making it the first Atlantic League contest ever televised to a national audience.

A little more than a stone's throw from our church in Cape Traverse on Prince Edward Island stands a house from which a young 23-year-old man left to serve his country in the Second World War. His name was Flight Sgt. Elmer Bagnall Muttart.
Muttart was one of those Canadians whose military heroism has come to light in the last number of years. On the night of Oct. 13, 1941, Muttart was flying as the lone Canadian with a crew of seven British airmen. Their plane was hit by a couple of German night-fighters. Muttart signalled for the crew to abandon the plane that was now engulfed in flames. However, the young captain knew that unless he stayed with the craft it would have landed in the nearby Dutch village of Wons, taking many more lives. He stayed airborne the length of time needed for the crew of Halifax L9561 to parachute out. Tail gunner John Duffield said, "He was a gallant captain who died that we might live."
Muttart was laid to rest with full honours in the military cemetery in Harlingen, The Netherlands. He embodied Jesus words, "Greater love has no one than this, that someone lays down his life for his friends" (John 15:13).
On the night before his death, Jesus also recognized the imminent danger we all were in. It wasn't a danger posed by a foreign enemy or any other kind of foe that we might face in this life, but the judgment of a holy God that lay upon mankind for crimes committed against his law. While God could not compromise his holy law and still be God, his love made a way to deal with our sins while enabling us to go free. The Apostle Paul says, "For while we were still weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly" (Rom. 5:6).
When we say of Jesus that "he died that others may live", we are using those words on a totally different plain than what might be said of any act of bravery otherwise recorded, no matter how noble. Consider how Paul makes clear to us what it meant for Jesus to die. He says, "And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross" (Phil. 2:8). So, it was no ordinary death even though many died on a cross in that period. This becomes clearer as Paul unpacks the nature of that death. He says, "Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us - for it is written, 'Cursed is everyone who is hanged on a tree'" (Gal. 3:13). This means the covenant curses of all of God's people down through the ages were laid on Jesus to satisfy divine justice. Paul says again, "For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin so that in him we might become the righteousness of God" (2 Cor. 5:19-21).
Just as the death Jesus died was on a different level, so is the life he imparts. Jesus said that he came that we might have life and have it more abundantly (John 10:10). He gives eternal life by his Spirit, resurrection power for living, his own perfect righteousness to stand unashamed before that same holy God we once offended. These and more are what we mean by "that we might live".
Once we come to see this truth, we are willing to endure anything in this life because the bigger question of our relationship with God has been solved. So, Paul says boldly, "… walk in love, as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God" (Eph. 5:2).
What a tragedy it would be to fail to honor the memory of the many like Flight Sergeant Muttart, who heroically gave their lives for others. In fact, family and friends both here in Canada and in Holland have been working tirelessly to keep his amazing story alive. The greatest tribute we could bestow as a society would be to ensure that we walk in the liberty he and others like him died to secure. The Royal Netherlands Embassy in Ottawa commented that "Canadians were instrumental in our liberation and many gave their lives for our freedom. Our gratitude for those courageous Canadian soldiers will never be forgotten. They were our liberators. Our heroes. Forever."
No Christian can read such words without an abiding gratitude to God for the sacrifices of those gone on before us. But more so for the good news of the Son of God, who loved us and gave himself for us, enabling us to walk in the freedom with which he has made us free. "So, if the Son sets you free, you shall be free indeed" (John 8:36).

Experiences from Germany's Market Introduction Program show that environmentally friendly fluids are making headway.
The market share for environmentally friendly fluids in mobile hydraulic applications is growing fast. Thanks to an innovative new marketing program sponsored by the German government, more than 10,000 changeovers have been performed in the past five years. By observing a set of technical standards, the changeovers have been surprisingly safe and easy. What's more, dealing with some of the challenges of environmentally friendly fluids has actually resulted in more cost-effective operation of equipment.
World oil production is currently peaking, but it is forecast to drastically diminish. Click on image for larger view.
In the 1950s, the big oil companies made efforts to establish statistical models. They wanted to forecast the total production of an oil field, or of a whole country, including the reserves still to be discovered. This led to more complete mathematical models that can provide us with information about the reach of world reserves. You can deduce from the curve shown in the figure below that the maximum of world oil production is just about upon us. Further serving the steadily growing demand will be possible only at considerably higher prices in the middle and long term.
In Germany, approximately 1.1 million metric tonnes of crude oil annually are set aside for petrochemical lubricant production. Only half of this quantity is recovered after usage for recycling or combustion; the remainder enters the environment intentionally or by leakage. Of the total lubricant quantity, approximately 150,000 tonnes are hydraulic fluids, with an estimated 60,000 tonnes used in mobile hydraulics, the rest in stationary equipment.
The search for alternatives has begun. During the last 15 years, many new lubricants made partly or totally from renewable raw materials have been developed. In the long term, these will be indispensable as a replacement for petrochemical products. After some initial difficulties with products made from simple rapeseed oil (Canola), today we have a range of chemically processed fluids and greases for virtually every use. These mature and environmentally friendly lubricants often have technical advantages over conventional products, but have not yet been generally accepted. The reason for this is lack of knowledge and higher prices.
To accelerate market development, the German Federal Ministry of Agriculture installed the Market Introduction Program (MIP), "Bio-based Fuels and Lubricants" in 2000. Funded with an annual budget of approximately 10 million Euros, the MIP is addressing potential users through seminars, print, and online media. Operators present their experiences, and users are informed about advantages and special features of environmentally friendly lubricants. Financial subsidies are intended to create interest in users of petrochemical lubricants to make the switchover, as well as to relieve changeover costs.
Currently, hydraulic systems are supported with 2.50 Euros per liter of system volume. This is multiplied by a factor taking into account the flushing effort necessary during changeover. For mobile equipment, this factor is 2.5; for stationary hydraulic equipment (easier to flush due to bigger reservoirs), the factor is lower. An additional fixed amount is also added to make changeover attractive for smaller equipment. While most users are interested in the changeover of used equipment, filling new equipment is also supported.
To be eligible for financial support, lubricants must be selected from a so-called "Positivliste." The positive list is maintained by the IFAS at the University of Aachen, Germany. Products on the positive list contain a minimum of 50% renewable raw materials, are rapidly biologically degradable, and pose little or no hazard to water. More than 400 products from over 40 vendors are listed.
At first glance, people are deterred by the fact that environmentally friendly fluids are three to five times more expensive than petrochemical-lubricants. But a closer look at the cost structures reduces the concern considerably.
In mobile hydraulic equipment, mineral oil based hydraulic fluids are often changed after every 1000 operating hours. Increasing the intervals would require a higher effort for filtering and fluid condition monitoring, but this would also result in increased reliability and component life. Still, many users do not find it worthwhile to extend the service life of cheap oils. Due to higher costs of environmentally friendly fluids, it makes more sense to incorporate the extra service effort — there is less wear on the equipment and longer service life of the oil.
Fluid should be checked every 500 to 1000 hours in a laboratory; a report provides information not only about the fluid condition, but also about any excessive wear of components. Current trends are moving toward online fluid condition monitoring, which may be able to replace the lab controls in part.
The market interest in environmentally friendly fluids is characterized by the desire for immediate protection of the environment — minimizing the contamination effect in case of a severe loss of fluid.
Although losses of motor or gear oils do not occur frequently, hydraulic systems operating with pressures of several hundred bar represent a high loss risk, such as in the case of hose failure. It is not unusual for a forest harvester to lose several hundred liters of hydraulic fluid during a year. As a result, forestry equipment that uses regular hydraulic fluid is banned in much of Germany.
The work with the MIP has demonstrated that there are relatively few problems related to the use of environmentally friendly fluids. When problems do occur, the cause is usually a contamination with mineral hydraulic fluid.
In most vehicle systems, only 60% of the hydraulic fluid is in the reservoir. Careful flushing is necessary-to remove fluid from the many hydraulic circuits and branches of a typical machine.
In reality, circuits are disassembled and drained as much as possible. A simple rule is that a full work hour is approximately equivalent to ten liters of environmentally friendly fluids.
After changeover, measures must be taken to avoid re-contamination with mineral oil fluids during operation and maintenance. This includes educating employees, labeling fill openings, and providing a suitable supply of replacement fluid. It is safest to change over an entire fleet at once, thereby avoiding having different fluids in stock.
Because environmentally friendly fluids are based on esters, they are generally sensitive to water. Water can cause hydrolysis, where esters decompose into alcohol and organic acids — which can lead to increased corrosion. Thus, it helps to be aware of how water can enter a system.
The most frequent path for water intrusion is the hydraulic reservoir-opening — when adding fresh fluid. If weather conditions are humid enough, water can enter. If the opening is in an unsuitable location or has been designed poorly, rain or snow enter the reservoir — and use of a pressure washer could be disastrous. The opening should be in a protected location, and high enough to prevent accumulation of dirt, leaves, or sawdust.
The proper function of the air breather is also very important. Most of the water leaves the hydraulic system as humid air through the breather. Hot fluid releases humidity, which is absorbed by the air in the reservoir. When the fluid level moves up and down, the warm and humid air is exhausted and later replaced with cooler and dryer air from outside. This air is consequently warmed up and can absorb more humidity. Since outside air is normally cooler than the air in the reservoir, more humidity will be exhausted than can come in; the hydraulic system dries automatically.
The concern that water enters the reservoir and condenses overnight can be disregarded. Condensed water observed in the reservoir after a cool night results from humidity that leaves the warm oil and condenses on the cool external walls — a purely internal cycle. Systems with a pressurized reservoir do have a problem here: the pressurization improves the suction conditions for the pump, but impedes the simple automatic humidity removal just described. Water has to be removed with water absorbing filters, or with a forced ventilation of the reservoir.

Q: Apostrophes and s's I always forget the rule about if something is possessive put 's at the end, for example "the sailor's hat". I know some people say to remember because it has a different meaning if it's plural (e.g. "the sailors hat" would mean there's multiple sailors owning the hat) but it also doesn't make sense if 's is expanded to it is (e.g. "the sailor is hat"). Does anyone have any advice on how to remember this?
I had to look it up and found this article which claims that if something has an s at the end already it is preferable to add 's (see note on rule 2). I was taught not to. Is it better to add a second s? For example Chris's golf clubs vs Chris' golf clubs.

A: I'm sure this is a duplicate question, but here's something I wrote for a friend. If your noun is singular and ends in s then whether you add another s after the apostrophe is a matter of style, not grammar.
The London Underground has a station called St. James's Park (after the Royal Park of that name). There is a stadium in Newcastle called St. James' Park, which is pronounced like the Underground station.

Apostrophes and how not to be confused
Apostrophes are easy. Here's a short summary which your teachers could have used. There isn't even a test at the end. Note: I'm criticising the education you were given, not you for having suffered that.
Simple plurals never have an apostrophe, even if you're a greengrocer.

*

*My lists are scattered all over the house.

*All the tomatoes are green.

*I was born in the 1960s.

*All MPs are [fill in something here].

Possessives do have an apostrophe. Write the noun, with its plural "s" if it's a plural and then put an apostrophe, and add an s if necessary. You don't need another s if you've already got one.

*

*The car's owner ran off. (One car, then the apostrophe, then an s because you don't already have one)

*My MP's expenses are entirely above board. (One MP, apostrophe and s)

*The cats' owner fed them. (More than one cat, then the apostrophe and you don't need another s)

*The soldiers' CO was awarded the DSM. (More than one soldier, apostrophe and no additional s)

*James' book was blue. (One James, then the apostrophe, and you don't need another s although you could add one because James is singular)

*The sheep's wool was white. (One sheep, apostrophe, s)

*The sheep's wool was white. (Two sheep, apostrophe, s)

Possessive pronouns don't have an apostrophe.

*

*Their car

*The car is theirs.

*Its wheels are chrome.

*Your car is black.

*The black car is yours.

"It's" only has an apostrophe when it's a contraction of "it is", and the apostrophe indicates a letter missed out, in much the same way as "don't" for "do not" or "you're" for "you are". When it is a pronoun you want to make a possessive pronoun, remember the rule that possessive pronouns don't have an apostrophe.

*

*It's a car. Its wheels are chrome.

Simples :-)
One reason given for why possessives have an apostrophe is that they are actually contractions similar to "don't/do not". For example, there is a 16th century dance called "Lord Salsbury his Pavan", which became shortened to "Lord Salsbury's Pavan" because it's easier to say. That's why possessive pronouns like "theirs" and "your" have no apostrophe: they're not contractions. This may or may not be correct — evolution of language is more complex than that — but it's a handy way of remembering.


There is great potential in Thailand for green building and construction materials from Malaysia, especially with the recent development in Thailand that focuses on clean environment and the use of environmentally friendly materials.
Malaysia External Trade Development Corporation (Matrade) Trade Commissioner in Bangkok, Niqman Rafaee Mohd Sahar said the owners of such building would be eligible for incentives offered by the Thailand Green Building Institute (TGBI) under the 'TREES Rating System'.
In 2013, the total market for building materials was valued at more than RM35 billion with the overall construction and mining sector contributing 4.3 per cent of Gross Domestic Product, he said in a statement today.
Among the high demand products in Thailand includes iron and steel related products, pipes, sidings, roofing, plastic products, lighting fixtures, energy savings and green technology products, decorative, tiles and flooring, fixtures and fittings and others.
Matrade is spearheading the participation of Malaysian companies in a Specialised Marketing Mission (SMM) of Building Materials to Bangkok, Thailand, from Sept 17-19, 2014.
The programme is organised in conjunction with the Building Materials Expo Asia 2014 and the Construction & Building Technology Week at Impact Exhibition & Convention Centre in Bangkok.
The SMM managed to group Malaysian companies involved in the manufacturing of aluminium foil, stainless steel products, LED lightings, fencing system, waterproofing materials, fibreglass reinforce plastics, spa equipment and adhesive and sealants.
The SMM would give good exposure to these companies not only giving them better opportunities to meet directly with potential partners but also to provide them with the latest in trends and requirements to export to Thailand, Matrade said.
The SMM is also aimed at promoting Malaysian green building and construction materials.
Malaysia exported RM1.94 billion worth of building material products to Thailand in 2013. For the January-June 2014 period, the export was valued at RM1.06 billion.
Major exports products include tubes, pipes, iron and steel, wood, and nails, screws, nuts.
In 2013, Thailand is Malaysia's second largest trading partner in Asean and the second largest export destination.
Thailand is Malaysia's fifth largest trading partner, with total bilateral trade valued at RM78.6 billion in 2013.
For the first half of 2014, total trade increased by 5.6 per cent to RM39.9 billion compared to the same period last year.

8 Signs That You Are Healthy Even If You Don't Think So
True Health Initiative is known worldwide as an organization that has an alternative approach to health issues. The doctors who work at True Health Initiative try to lower the tension around health problems. Today, according to the doctors, people pay too much attention to health which leads to hypochondria. In this article, we have collected 8 signs of really good health that doctor-nutritionist Cynthia Geyer, a member of THI, told us about.
We at Bright Side hope that we can relieve some tension about health issues. Spoiler alert: if you are feeling okay, it means you are okay! Even through all the vehicle emissions you breathe, GMOs you eat, and chemicals that are in your shampoo.
1. You eat only when you're hungry and never eat too much.
© depositphotos, © depositphotos
If you don't eat out of boredom and you're not psychologically addicted to food, you're good in this respect and can move forward.
2. Your diet is healthy.
© depositphotos, © pixabay
You eat tasty and different food. Don't limit your diet to chicken breasts and rice, or vice versa, don't eat too many sweets or foods that are bad for you.
3. You eat as much as your body needs.

Every person has their own food needs. There is no one universal formula that you can use to calculate how many calories you need, it's a very individual thing. You can eat very little, or a lot more than other people and still be considered normal. The most important thing is to listen to your body and try to understand what it wants. If you are able to do this, congratulations!
So, the first three points on this list mean one thing: you eat normally, you don't eat too much or too little, and you eat different food and don't obsess about it.
4. You can take a flight of stairs and breathe normally.
This is an indicator that your body is in good physical shape. You don't need to have an amazing stamina or do a lot of sports to be considered healthy. If you don't feel like your dying when you take the stairs, it means that you are okay.
"If you can take two flights of stairs without a break and feel okay on the top, it means that you are in good physical shape. This means that your body can handle everyday physical activity normally".
5. You experience a range of emotions — from sadness to excitement.
Psychological health has nothing to do with being super optimistic 24/7. The scientists, the authors of today's study, say, "Being angry from time to time is normal, being sad is normal, being annoyed and depressed is normal. The ability to have all these emotions is a sign of good psychological health. And you should also realize that none of these emotions are constant".
6. You can get up pretty early without an alarm.
This means that you can get up early, without an alarm, and feel good. It's not about the days when you need to get up at 6 a.m. It's about the days when you have a relaxed schedule, when you don't need to get up at a certain time.
So, if you are able to feel that you got good sleep, a solid rest, and you can get out of bed early and feel good — you are healthy.
7. You don't fall asleep instantly.
Of course, there are difficult days when you fall asleep in a matter of seconds — once your head hits the pillow. This is perfectly normal unless it happens every day. According to scientists, the normal process of falling asleep takes from 10 to 20 minutes. This should be a calm and slow process.
8. You have enough energy to do what you want.
This means that if you don't have to survive in a cycle of "sleep — food — work — sleep", then you are fine. You have enough energy for the things that you like, like playing with your child, meeting your friends, or spending time with your pets.
So, there's a simple formula: if you eat normally, you sleep well, and you move during the day, it means that you are okay. Do you see yourself in any of these points?

In this review of Crack Brokers we prove that it is is a scam. It is presented by Thomas Mallon.
Crack Brokers is a binary options trading software that is allegedly earning $2,500 per day, $17,500 per week or $70,000 per month.
And because it is easy to get rich nowadays, Crack Brokers is of course free.
In reality Crack Brokers is of course a scam. It is designed to take your money and lose it in bad binary options trades, because scammers cannot trade profitably.
Mallon is a fictitious character played by an actor. In fact this guy is a professional scam artist that played the main role in several scams.
Look at the picture to see some examples, we've seen him for example in Wall Street Trading Software, Cashimprove or High Frequency Trader.
Every time he used a different name, but he always is promising free money in different programs that in reality lose money.
On the Crack Brokers website you can see some alleged real time trading results of users of this program.
But they are all fake and it is easy to prove.
Look at the picture, it shows allegedly live trading results with a Saturday evening date. And this is impossible, because markets are closed on weekends, so these results are fake.
And what about testimonials shown in the video? Fake, of course. Made with paid actors.
We also had a look at the Crack Brokers software to see what scammers used this time. It is a well-known app used by many other binary options scams.
Look at the picture to see a few examples, this same exact app is used for example by Satellite Trader or Obcasio.
This software loses money in real trading, we know it from real users!
So how does Crack Brokers work? People who are behind it get paid by a certain broker for referring new depositing clients. That's all.
So they won't let you to try their app until you deposit money with their broker. Because they need to get their affiliate commission first, only then you can discover that their software loses money.
Crack Brokers is a dirty scam that will push you to deposit money and then it will lose it, because it cannot trade profitably.
You can learn how to trade profitably on a free demo account with a regulated broker. That's the real way to make money with binary options.
Start trading with real money only when you are consistently profitable on the demo.
Thank you for your review and info about Crack Broker. Now I wonder how and where i can safely and effectively learn the ropes to trade binary options for free, with some genuine live video tutorials, manuals and a demo account linked with real FX fanancial datas for practising until I feel confident enough to trade with real money but on the lowest scale possible.
I live in Brussles (Belgium) and would like to start my learning journey with a reputable trustworthy broker both regulated by the EU and SEC autorities, to be on the safe side.
Thank you for your time, keep up the good work tracking all the scammmers and con artists out there in cyberspace.
