Antonio Bastardo was one of the overlooked heroes of the 2011 Phillies' 102 win squad. For the first five months of the season, the young left-hander was one of the most dominant relievers in baseball. Despite stumbling in September, Bastardo's season ending line (bolstered by a mind-boggling and historically low .179 BABIP), showed that he was one of the best relievers in baseball, but also that some regression was very likely in 2012.
And regress he did. The pendulum swung way back in the other direction in 2012, with Bastardo's ERA jumping over a point and a half (from 2.64 to 4.33). Much of this can be explained by the BABIP normalizing to a more human .306. His home run rate went up quite a bit, but that constituted the difference between seven home runs in 52 innings in 2012, and six bombs in 58 innings in 2011. But Bastardo actually demonstrated some improvements in 2012 that indicated that he might be better than he looked in 2011.
Bastardo's always been a good strikeout pitcher, but his strikeout rates spiked in 2012. His 14.02 K/9 was third best in baseball (min. 50 IP), trailing only the masterful Craig Kimbrel (16.66) and Aroldis Chapman (15.32), and his K% of 36.2% was sixth overall in MLB. He is also adept at inducing the best kind of batted ball, the infield fly ball -- his 17.9% IFFB% was 11th best.
Aside from a kind of high home run rate, the other thing that has been a major problem for Bastardo is command and control. He issues far too many walks (yucky 11.6 BB%). In 2011, Bastardo was actually better against right handed batters, and in 2012 he reverted to a more typical platoon split, although he still held righties to a respectable .317 wOBA.
For 2013, when the numbers shake out, Bastardo is probably a pitcher somewhere between his phenomenal 2011 and his disappointing and bizarre 2012. He's a young, cost-controlled relief pitcher who misses bats like crazy. What else do you want?

Alias (profile) says:
Incidentally, folks might have noticed how the Irish and British media, and indeed some of the political class, have lamented the poor domestic regulation that allowed horsemeat to enter the food chain on this scale.
What they probably won't have noticed is that none of the Member States of the EU retain sovereignty over food regulation since that is an exclusive EU competency.
The reason they won't have noticed that is that because of a deliberate policy not to point it out to them. Were they to have noticed it they might have become critical of EU regulation of their food, and might also become concerned that such a matter is no longer within their sovereign democratic remit and, therefore, they can do absolutely nothing about how the EU regulates the food industry – allowing horsemeat and whatever else to enter the food chain and to be served to them and to their children.
Regulation (EC) No 178/2002 is designed to allow for the free movement of food ingredients intended for human consumption between Member States with the food industry expected to regulate itself and to take it on trust that the documents supplied with food imported from other parts of the EU are genuine. As is now apparent, it only takes a few fraudsters of the flaws in EU regulation to become blazingly obvious.
Still, as obvious as they are, there is not a thing that a Member State can do about it since it is an exclusive EU competency.
Basil McCrea's new "non-sectarian unionist party," part black, part white but definitely a colt from a unionist horse.
Rory Carr (profile) says:
Gosh, Alias. That sounds suspiciously akin to a political accommodation designed solely to benefit the interests of multinational capital with the interests of the consumer relegated to a status of little or no consequence. Surely not ?
Are not the interests of capital and the consumer harmoniously combined in a market where choice is the driving force ? Is the common good not after all to be best served by the unbridled ruthlessness of the few?
Are our dreams of the inevitable triumph of capitalist nirvana to drift away as the clouds of happiness and peace must do in any other opium den ?

Thanks for the great review!
Firstly i tip my hat to the ftd team who did a great job with the sound considering this soundboard is over thirty years old,its not as recorded in Memphis 74 standard but still playable and enjoyable.i"ve read some comments saying NOT ANOTHER 70S SOUNDBOARD but i love these concerts and so do a lot of other fans, onto the show
SEE SEE RIDER starts the show in energetic style with Elvis in top vocal form and a great guitar solo from James Burton,a superb version.
I GOT A WOMEN-AMEN Elvis goes straight into this song without any of the well wells a good version.
LOVE ME a good solid version.
LET ME BE THERE one of the earliest performances of this song live. a good version.
YOU"VE LOST THAT LOVING FEELING a superb version as good as any i have heard from 70-72.
SWEET CAROLINE This is one of the best versions of sweet Caroline if not the best ever with Elvis on top vocals listen to the whoa whoa whoas before the sweet Caroline chorus fantastic, some great karate moves to wards the ending,thats what it sounds like to me anyway i will try out some moves when i listen to it again, shit hot.
LOVE ME TENDER a nice version with Elvis interacting with the crowd,after the whoa at the end a nice whoo whoa ooh ooh which i have never ever heard him do on any version of the song before, superb.
ROCK MEDLEY A great performance of these classic songs every Elvis fan will be singing along, a nice wah wah guitar from jb on hound dog, not as good as HELLO MEMPHIS but still cutting it.
FEVER a solid performance with some good duke bardwell bass at the start superb.
POLK SALAD ANNIE a good performance not much different to the many 74 versions.
SPANISH EYES a real classic version, the best i have ever heard with Elvis and Sherill nelsons voices perfect together fantastic worth getting the CD for this alone.
SUSPICIOUS MINDS a good fast version of this song, nice bluesy guitar touches from jb to wards end of song,again Elvis probably doing karate moves at the end.
INTROS great part when Elvis sings a snippet of CHARLIE RICH the most beautiful girl in the world for MARTY ALLEN and says he will record it one day, because CHARLIE RICH needs the money i dont think he did not in 74 anyway.
I CAN"T STOP LOVING YOU A good solid version.
HELP ME- ELVIS was about to release this as a single in 74 a nice version sung well.
AMERICAN TRILOGY Fantastic version up there with the best of them.
LET ME BE THERE Second time in the show, slightly slower than later versions nice.
CANT HELP FALLING IN LOVE Time to take it home ,great with that big opera WITH YOU at the end where Elvis opens up his voice good version.
ANNOUNCEMENTS nice touch informing the crowd that CHUBBY CHECKER and WILSON PICKET were playing Vegas soon.
Last edited by my boy; 08-20-2006 at 01:40 PM.
Thanks for this review, but what ftd are you refering to? SOunds indeed like a great one.
Christel (TCE)
my review is about the latest ftd release I FOUND MY THRILL, although there is some overloading-distortion on the tape the ftd team have done a wonderfull job. As i said in my review its not up to AS RECORDED IN MEMPHIS 74 which is stunning,but its as enjoyable as many other Elvis soundboards. I hope that answers your question Christel
I think this is a fabulous concert, basically because we have never heard anything in soundboard from this Vegas season before.
Only the Bootleg 'Something Old, Something New' which was an audience recording.
- AND I loved the IFMT extra Bonus tracks.
I interviewed the audio restorer Jean-Marc about how he managed to get this CD from a very poor quality audio-cassette.
Go here for interview.
It is a great concert to help us investigate Elvis' history of 1974.

Commentator praises messi's right foot, then left foot and then his golden balls? Only an American commentator would have so many quotes lol. Good fun and what a brilliant match.
he is not american lol... he is english..... Ray Hudson...three seasons with newcastle united in the 70s. He has a major man crush for Messi but his commentaries are funny as....
@Edi3000 I know Ray Hudson lol (as in who he is). Maybe it's different highlights on here now. He was definitely American. He said Baaaals (Not balls)
Ray Hudson... Your comparisons are complete bullshit, your voice is irritating and your manly love for everything wearing a barca shirt is really embarassing. Get a grip.
Not bitter, just 1 of the millions who cringed every time the man opened his mouth. Seriously, what's with the retarded comparisons? Felt like he was just throwing up into the microphone. I will admit that it was fun the first 5 seconds. But then it was too much.
Does anyone know the name of this commentator? I enjoyed his comments he maked the highlight more fun to what for me.
Stop complaining people. At least the commentator shows some emotion, unlike the majority of the german commentators who try to be overly serious but bore the s**t out of you.
Commentator : "Messi's left foot which is wirwuehfiuerhf and his right foot which is ewk;jhflwerjfh and in whats in the middle ...." This commentator was totally weird.
Right foot is a well oiled revolver, left foot is a Stradivarius, and in the middle ... at this point I was all smile :D:D:D but he saved it with that "vision" idea, it could as well be a tremendous set of balls, as in courage or something :)
Great game from both sides. Fabregas conducted beautifully this match, Valdes is in awesome form this year, I hope we can keep him he has been critical to Barca's success.
Well done, Valencia. Much respect. That was a fantastic fight.
Neymar and Messi appear to be forging a great understanding. Barca's attacking trident will slay foes with zeal and enthusiasm. Opponents beware.

A fire that broke out early Wednesday morning at 1936 Route 15 in Armstrong Township caused more than $200,000 in damage and left the sole male occupant homeless for several weeks, according to South Williamsport fire investigators.
It has been determined the fire was accidental and caused by a wood burner in a game room, said the borough's chief fire inspector, Al Cole, and Judy Berfield, the assistant fire inspector.
The home owner, whose identity was not released, was awakened by smoke and managed to get out of the house on his own, Cole said.
Volunteer firefighters had the bulk of the fire knocked down in about 30 minutes.
Structural damage was set at $150,000 while damage to contents was another $100,000, Cole said.
The owner has fire insurance and his insurance company was helping him pay for emergency shelter.
This owner had no smoke alarms in the house, Cole said, adding that he encouraged everyone to have working alarms in their homes.

"Storage performance testing matters during the purchasing cycle and during tuning and troubleshooting efforts," says Brian Garrett, industry analyst with the Enterprise Strategy Group. Suppose that a new storage system is being considered for an environment with 200 users, but another 200 users may be added over the next two years. SPT could be used to simulate the workload expected from up to 400 users. Or, it could be used to investigate the maximum number of users that a storage system will adequately support before performance degrades to an unacceptable level. Test results can provide an early indication of that system's future performance. Analysts note that SPT can be used to "break" a storage system or find its practical limitations before making a purchase.
Requires Free Membership to View
As a general rule, SPT cannot, and should not, be performed on a production network. Not only would this unnecessarily put production data at risk, but the results would be skewed by normal network activity, which in turn would be adversely impacted by the added testing workload. SPT should be approached as a lab activity where equipment and software can be allocated for testing purposes -- a requirement that many organizations are simply not prepared to handle. "It's just a big endeavor to create something that's real world and can emulate the problems you're having in a benchmark environment," Garrett says. "For the large majority of storage users, they just don't have the resources or the time to be thinking about this stuff."
Third-party alternatives
Some organizations turn to third-party testing services when there simply isn't enough space, equipment or available talent to tackle a testing project in-house. Independent testing facilities, such as Diogenes Analytical Laboratories Inc or Lionbridge Technologies Inc., are usually quite good at designing experiments, employing a variety of available test tools and analyzing the volumes of test results that are generated. Outside firms also bring a level of expertise to the test process that may be absent on the actual user's site. For example, a data center with significant EMC Corp. system experience may have trouble running accurate comparative tests on a storage array from Hitachi Data Systems Inc. (HDS) simply because there isn't enough familiarity with the new product. By comparison, an outside testing house can usually bring a broad range of expertise across various hardware and software platforms.
Ideally, an independent test center should be able to avoid the "politics of preference" and report accurate data regardless of the system being tested. However, some vendors engage test facilities for comparative tests that can sometimes lead to bias -- potentially compromising the test center's reputation. "Vendors will hire a particular lab to run a series of tests, and those tests may or may not be biased," Schulz says. "There's a lot of suspicion whenever a lab comes out and declares a particular product as being the best." Vendor-sponsored testing can generate a lot of skepticism regarding the results.
As with in-house testing, outside testing is not something to be undertaken lightly. A testing cycle can take anywhere from several weeks to several months, depending on the complexity of the individual project. The costs for outside testing can also vary wildly, ranging from about $15,000 to several hundred thousand dollars per engagement. Actual costs are influenced by the amount of labor, hardware needs and analytical detail required by the client.
Reliance on vendors and the SPC
In actual practice, the commitment of labor, time and equipment may be too much for an organization to bear, and there simply may not be enough capital in the IT budget to support testing from an outside organization. When this is the case, storage administrators often turn to test results from the Storage Performance Council (SPC) for general performance data about prospective products.
Industry governing bodies like the SPC do not actually perform testing, but they develop standardized test suites that vendors can utilize to perform their own testing. Those results are then audited by the SPC and posted to the SPC Web site for easy reference. Thus, standardized test results may be readily available for storage products currently under consideration. As you might expect, this system has its limitations. Vendors are not obliged to submit their results, so the results that do appear are often "best case" results for individual products. Some of the most notable names in the industry,including EMC, do not participate in SPC testing.
Ultimately, most storage administrators forego the investment of performance testing and rely on the individual product vendor for testing results, best practice guidelines and configuration assistance within their own environment. "For small and midsized companies, they probably go to their system or storage providers and have them [vendors] help solve the problem because they have the resources and they've already been through the sizing issues," Garrett says.

Yahoo is a leading provider of comprehensive online products and services to consumers and businesses worldwide. Yahoo reaches more than 237 million individuals worldwide each month.
Between March 2000 and August 2000, I was personally responsible on behalf of Yahoo for the negotiation and execution with representatives of the Recording Industry Association of America of the voluntary "Webcasting Performance and Ephemeral License Agreement" for Yahoo's public performance of sound recordings by noninteractive nonsubscription webcasting.
In July 1999, Yahoo had acquired broadcast.com inc., a publicly traded company specializing in broadcasting audio and video over the Web. Broadcast.com was a leading aggregator of streaming audio and video, making available from its Website thousands of special events, several hundred local radio stations, local television stations and video networks, concerts, and Internet-only music channels. Over the two years following the acquisition of broadcast.com, Yahoo integrated the broadcast.com services into the Yahoo network.
With the acquisition of broadcast.com, Yahoo also became an aggregator of music programming created by third parties. Specifically, Yahoo offered its audience the opportunity to listen to music performances in two ways. First, radio stations transmitted their signals by phone line to Yahoo servers, which servers then originated the retransmission of those radio station signals to the Internet. Second, programmers created Internet-only channels or Internet-only programming, which was not transmitted over ordinary radio station signals and which Yahoo also made available to the public. At that time, radio retransmissions constituted approximately 90 percent of Yahoo's performances that were covered by the statutory license; Yahoo's Internet-only performances constituted the remaining 10 percent.
As of the time when Yahoo completed its acquisition of broadcast.com, Yahoo had several reasons for considering a voluntary license rather than taking advantage of the statutory license available following arbitration:
First, it would enable Yahoo to offer certainty of a negotiated RIAA license to Yahoo customers. By entering into a license agreement with the RIAA, Yahoo could offer a service to our radio station and third party music programming entities by saving them the expense and burden of arbitration or independent negotiation with the RIAA.
Second, Yahoo would avoid the costs of arbitration. As one of the largest Internet webcast transmission services, we would incur very high litigation costs if we were to participate in the arbitration. In addition, litigation would drain time and resources from Yahoo personnel whose efforts would bring much greater value if directed toward development and execution of our site-wide streaming media implementation. Moreover, Yahoo was aware that these arbitrations could repeat every two years. In light of these factors, Yahoo was willing to enter into a voluntary license in order to avoid these litigation burdens and costs. Yahoo ultimately decided that we would much rather invest fewer resources settling than invest more resources arbitrating.
Third, Yahoo would avoid the uncertainty of the CARP rate. By negotiating a voluntary license, Yahoo could potentially quantify and control its costs. We were concerned that an unacceptably high royalty rate arrived at by the CARP could force us to stop offering particular types of content. Negotiating the fee reduced the risk of an adverse judgment inherent in any arbitration or litigation. In addition, given that radio retransmissions constituted approximately 90 percent of Yahoo's music performances, we believed that our interests were different from the other participants in the CARP; and we wanted to establish a separate and lower rate for radio retransmissions.
Fourth, Yahoo wanted to build goodwill with the record labels. We believed that by settling early, we would engender goodwill with RIAA member recording companies. We hoped that this goodwill would lead to better revenue opportunities in the future.
In light of these factors, our primary concern was the overall cost of the license, that is, the "effective rate" that we would pay for all performances based on our mix of radio retransmissions and Internet-only performances. Based on what we projected as the ratio of retransmissions to Internet-only transmissions, the radio retransmission fee was a much more significant factor to us.
Although we were aware that our license could be used as a precedent prospectively, our main interest was in striking a deal that had an acceptable bottom line impact for the term of the agreement. To the extent that an arbitration resulted in lower fees going forward, we would be able to avail ourselves of that lower rate in the renewal periods or following the expiration of our Agreement with RIAA. If our license was deemed to be an industry precedent and the arbitration resulted in the same rates, we would be on an even plane with our competitors, and the Internet-only rate was not of great concern to us at that time. Either way, we looked to the costs we would save by not participating in the arbitration in agreeing to our license.
Not surprisingly, our interest was in doing what was best for our business and our business model. At that time, because of our mix of 90 percent radio retransmissions and 10 percent Internet-only transmissions, we were hoping to achieve a lower rate for radio retransmissions which would produce a lower effective rate and have a far greater financial impact on our business than the rate for Internet-only transmissions.
The fees ultimately set by the CARP in its recent report were considerably higher than any fair market outcome or any reasonable construction of the economics of the Yahoo-RIAA Agreement. The Panel did not appropriately address the unique facts and circumstances surrounding the Yahoo-RIAA Agreement, yet the Panel explicitly used certain terms of that Agreement as a benchmark for industry rate-setting. The result is that a single specific agreement based upon the unique situation of an individual company whose business model was atypical of Internet webcasters in general, has been misapplied to set excessive rates for an entire industry.

"Lately things don't feel the same...."
-- Jimi Hendrix
On February 28, the inundation of Pisces energy continues as the goddess of beauty and love meets up with the ruler of the Piscean ocean, Neptune. There is definitely something magical about the merger of Venus with her higher octave, Neptune. If you're a dreamer, you won't be the only one this week.
Of course there is the dark side to Neptune as well: deception, disillusionment, contagion and a total lack of boundaries. When you're in the presence of good eggs, no problem. But when in the presence of toxic or deceitful energy, having serious boundaries -- not to mention, thicker skin -- is not a bad thing.
Neptune rules the subtlest of energies, all things and forces unseen, invisible and ethereal. During this time, it is crucial to tune in to your imagination and dreams the way you would the daily news -- but with even more rapt attention. If you ever doubted how powerful images are, just experiment during this time and you will no longer question why creative visualization works. If you can dream it, you can become it. But the pitfall of Neptune-Pisces "wishful thinking" is believing that this is all there is to it.
There are so many subtle and unseen layers to how manifestation metaphysics actually works. Neptune is murky business, so don't expect anything to be solid, reliable or full-proof. You can open yourself to miracles, but be sure to remain just as open to profound disillusionment (especially if you're expecting tangible results from the ethereal or lasting results from the ephemeral).
It's best to use this potential magic to tune in to where your own imagery and dreams are directing you in the eternal search for meaning and greater wholeness. Trust in the power of the subtle and don't base your happiness on externals. Putting your blind faith outside of yourself will only lead to the dark side of Neptune: cynicism if not straight-up addictive escape mechanisms. Alcohol is especially tempting during this liquid influence. What we're really looking for is the elixir or magic potion of the gods where we no longer have to experience our separation from the source.

► NuRD directly regulates the transcription of pluripotency genes ► The repressive activity of NuRD is required for ESC differentiation ► NuRD mediates transcriptional heterogeneity in ESC populations ► Transcription levels are determined by balanced activation and silencing
Transcriptional heterogeneity within embryonic stem cell (ESC) populations has been suggested as a mechanism by which a seemingly homogeneous cell population can initiate differentiation into an array of different cell types. Chromatin remodeling proteins have been shown to control transcriptional variability in yeast and to be important for mammalian ESC lineage commitment. Here we show that the Nucleosome Remodeling and Deacetylation (NuRD) complex, which is required for ESC lineage commitment, modulates both transcriptional heterogeneity and the dynamic range of a set of pluripotency genes in ESCs. In self-renewing conditions, the influence of NuRD at these genes is balanced by the opposing action of self-renewal factors. Upon loss of self-renewal factors, the action of NuRD is sufficient to silence transcription of these pluripotency genes, allowing cells to exit self-renewal. We propose that modulation of transcription levels by NuRD is key to maintaining the differentiation responsiveness of pluripotent cells.
