HDB retracts notice asking residents to consider 'debarking' noisy dogs
- POSTED: 28 Aug 2014 20:58
- UPDATED: 28 Aug 2014 23:51
HDB says it agrees the issue should have been handled more sensitively.
SINGAPORE: The Housing and Development Board (HDB) said a notice put up in Ang Mo Kio, advising residents to possibly 'debark' their dogs if they make too much noise, does not accurately reflect its position.
The notice had listed debarking as one option, alongside obedience training sessions and training collars, to manage the problem of excessive barking by dogs, which HDB says, could become a nuisance to neighbours. It went viral on social media, with some animal lovers labelling the suggestion "barking mad".
In a statement issued in response to Channel NewsAsia's enquiries on Thursday (Aug 28), HDB said the notice has been taken down and apologised for the anxiety caused to dog owners.
"The notice had meant to seek the assistance of dog owners to help manage the issue of excessive dog barking at an Ang Mo Kio block, arising from complaints received. We agree it should have been handled more sensitively," the statement read.
HDB said when residents complain about excessive dog barking, they have always advised and counselled dog owners to manage their pets' barking and behaviour through obedience training.
"Debarking should only be considered by pet owners as a last resort when all other measures, especially training, are ineffective and only if the dog owner considers it an option," HDB stated.
An advisory on the website of the Agri-Food & Veterinary Authority also says debarking surgery is a "solution of last resort".
Prior to HDB's confirmation that the notice was withdrawn, non-profit organisation Agency for Animal Welfare wrote on its Facebook page that it had written to the Ministry of National Development at 5am on Thursday regarding the issue. Hours later, it posted: "The AMK HDB notice has been removed. We thank MND Ministers of State, Mr Desmond Lee and Dr Maliki Osman for their swift and responsive wisdom and kindness".
Ms Corrine Fong, Executive Director of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) said the initial recommendation to debark dogs was "disappointing". In a statement released to the media, she called the debarking procedure "outdated and inhumane", noting that many veterinarians refuse to do the surgery on ethical grounds.
Ms Fong said the SPCA urges HDB and the public to always put animal welfare first in resolving communal problems.

TOPEKA, Kan. - The Lynn Jenkins for Congress campaign Tuesday announced the release of their first television advertisement, "A New Direction."
The ad highlights what Jenkins calls "the mess Washington politicians created over the past decade" and unveils Jenkin's vision.
Jenkins is running for the Republic nomination, on a platform of lower taxes, reduced spending and secure borders.
"While DC Republicans don't like to admit it, they failed to deliver when they had control of Congress," Jenkins Campaign Manager Pat Leopold said. "Lynn is running for Congress to restore the Republican Party and refocus our party's commitment to keep taxes low, put an end to wasteful spending and secure the border once and for all."
This television ad comes on the heels of the recent announcement that 11 Kansas Republican Party leaders are backing Jenkins for her bid for Congress.
Jenkins is currently serving her second term as State Treasurer.

LSU AgCenter Horticulturists Dan Gill, Allen Owings and John Young caution homeowners about creating landscaping problems that could bring termites into their home.
LSU AgCenter Horticulturists Dan Gill, Allen Owings and John Young write that fall through spring is when most folks add new plants to their landscape. This is the best time of year for planting trees, shrubs and ground covers, but it is also a time to be cautious about creating problems that could bring termites into your home.
LSU AgCenter experts suggest the following to reduce the possibility of termite problems:
Visit LaHouse in Baton Rouge to see sustainable landscape practices in action. The home and landscape resource center is located near the intersection of Burbank Drive and Nicholson Drive (Louisiana Highway 30) in Baton Rouge across the street from the LSU baseball stadium. For more information, go to www.louisianahouse.org and www.lsuagcenter.com/lyn.
The National Pest Management Association (NPMA) is seeking a qualified regulatory affairs professional to direct the day-to-day management and execution of NPMA's federal and state regulatory affairs programs
The company has been selected by the National Park Service to install and maintain effective termite control systems for 14 national historic sites in the Delaware Valley, including Independence Hall.
Research from North Carolina State University shows that some insect pests are thriving in warm, urban environments and developing earlier, limiting the impact of parasitoid wasps that normally help keep those pest populations in check.

Looking for Tastycakes
- f
- foodcorejunior Aug 29, 2007 10:24 AM
If you're an east-coaster, you hopefully know what I'm referring to. I need tastycakes. I've had my fam send out a couple boxes on occasion, but I'd like to be self-sufficient in the tastycake-area. Help me please...
I did read on one post that Philly's Best has them:
Any place else?
There is a sandwich shop on Washington, just east of Sepulveda, in Culver City called Markie D's and they sell Tastycakes.
I'm 99% sure they do, anyway ...
They also sell some east coast chip, too ... I think "Herr's" is the brand, though I can't remember for sure.
They also have good sandwiches, cheese steaks and hoagies and stuff. A pretty good chili dog, too. Have no idea how authentic the cheese steaks are ... I've never eaten on in Philly ... but they are pretty good one way or the other.
re: PaulF
I can second that, Marky D's has Tastycakes. And as a Pennsylvanian, Marky D's doesn't have Philly cheesesteaks exactly, but they're the closest approximation I've been able to find out here.
And yes, you're thinking of Herrs, Paul.
Speaking of chips, I'd love to find Gibbles out here.
Also, South Street in Westwood carries tastycakes.
re: hyacinthgirl
Markie D's cheesesteaks are my favorite. Though they don't use the amoroso roll, I find that their cheesesteak meat is the best.
re: SauceSupreme
Agree whole-heartedly.
Also, that's a great blog, I hadn't checked it out before.
Are you taking the photos, because they're beautiful.
re: hyacinthgirl
"And as a Pennsylvanian, Marky D's doesn't have Philly cheesesteaks exactly, but they're the closest approximation I've been able to find out here."
Have you tried Philly's Best? They're the real thing, even have Amoroso rolls.
re: kyle759
I must admit, I haven't. Am I right in thinking there are no locations actually in LA?
re: baloney
not to mention the best cheesesteaks i've had out here. Fredo's has become a weekly thing for me which is saying something since i'm only in the area during their business hours on the weekends.
Philly's Best has a great selection of TastyKakes (I've been to the one in Irvine).
I haven't been to this place, but they show the Eagles games and serve Philly Cheese Steaks...owner is from Philly too. They just might have Tastykakes too...has anyone been there? -
The Shack
2518 Wilshire Blvd
Santa Monica, CA 90408
You can also order them from http://www.tastykake.com.
re: Gina from OC
I've been there for an Eagles game or 10, but no tastycakes to my knowledge.
re: broncosaurus
I know I've seen them at the Encino and Van Nuys .99 cent stores, too.
re: Diana
Some of you may know this, but Tastykakes, unlike other packaged cakes, have to be eaten soon after they get shipped out or they get stale. Being from Philly, I actually gave these out at my wedding (out here) as favors. Tastykakes strongly urged me to ship them directly (overnight) to the wine country instead of L.A. so they would arrive the day before the wedding. For that reason, be wary of places that might not be getting the freshest ones in and/or do not have huge turnover (maybe the .99 cent stores sell a lot and constantly refresh their supply - just pointing it out in case they don't).
Love this thread, btw. It reminded me I have to get to Fredo's ASAP to try the cheesesteaks for myself.
Fredo's Phillys carries them.

Philly's Best definitely has them....many different kinds too! I just bought some yesterday from the Philly's Best in Long Beach for my Pennsylvanian BF and for a couple of people from my office. If only they had Yuengling too....
re: schrutefarms
You know, I'm inclined to agree with you about the deliciousness of the cheesesteak. Is it Pat's or Geno's? No, not really. But it's pretty damn good, they use Amoroso rolls, and they don't stare at you with their mouths agape when you order "provolone wit anna soda." My only complaint is that they make everything when you order it (I know, such a complaint, right?) and that means at lunchtime it can take 30-45 minutes to get your damn steak.
And not only do they have Tastycakes but also Wise potato chips (nostalgia!) and wishniak.
re: Das Ubergeek
I'm not the most knowledgable on cheesesteaks, but I did go to Philly, had one at Gino's, then had one at Philly's Best two weeks later, and honestly could not tell the difference. Yes, it does take quite some time, though. But really worth the wait :)
Hello everyone! Check out my page and give me a call. I ship the same day if you order before 3 p.m. EST. Thanks.

Dao Studio 0.5 Beta 3
Optionally typed programming language
Dao Studio is an integrated development platform for the Dao programming language, that allows you to author or edit source code scripts in a graphic interface. Typing the text is optional, yet the software features type inference and static checking. Other text editing tools are available, such as search and replace, or the common functions copy, cut, paste.
Dao Studio offers advanced support for variable checks and displays the complete information regarding constants or associated data. The working space is complemented by the console, in which you can verify the syntax and compile the script. Moreover, a log tab displays all the actions that take place in a session.
Load and edit previous projects
Dao Studio allows you to easily load the source files, by brwosing the folders on your system, with the help of the integrated explorer. Simply select the .DAO project file, then let the software display it for you in a separate tab. You may easily edit syntax or add new commands in the current project.
There are several VIM commands that you can access through the means of shortcuts, with key combinations. The software describes these commands and can guide you through the usage of the editor. Additionally, the software supports a multitude of source code file formats, from .DAO, to C/C++ files or header files, Lua, Python, Perl, PipeLang, SDML, Text, HTML, CGI or Qt documents.
User-friendly environment for programming
With Dao Studio, editing source code from several types of files is made easy, quick and convenient. The software's graphical interface makes typing the text optional, but it still features powerful text editing functions. Moreover, you may easily compile the script, export it as a .DAO project or print it.

And in the Export dialog box, choose from the Format pop-up menu, InDesign Markup. That's IDML. Now, you may have heard of something in InDesign called an INX file.
But in InDesign CS5, IDML completely replaces INX. So wherever you've ever heard of INX, just put IDML in your brain now. So what is IDML? Well, it's a way to represent your entire file in sort of a set of XML files. You don't need to know the technical stuff, but it's technically a bunch of XML files that represent your file that you can then hand to an InDesign CS4 user. They can open the IDML file and it rebuilds the document in InDesign CS4. It's pretty clever. Now, of course, not all the features come along for the ride.
Any of your new InDesign CS5 features are stripped out when you open it in InDesign CS4. And there's another problem. This IDML file cannot be opened in InDesign CS3. Only InDesign CS4. So if you need to get something back to InDesign CS3, you'd have to save it out as IDML from CS5, open it into InDesign CS4, and then save out another IDML file, or in that case maybe an INX file, out of InDesign CS4, and open that file in InDesign CS3. Each of these will only go back one version.
Now, as it turns out, this IDML file is useful for other things as well, not just back saving. For example, every now and again I find a document that just acts a little strangely. Maybe a color shows up in the Swatches panel that you can't delete or maybe the pasteboard around the page gets really huge. Just some kind of weirdness that you can't explain. And often the easiest solution to this is to export the file to IDML and then open it back up again. Yes, you can actually open your IDML back up in CS5. It's not just for down saving to CS4.
Here let me show you. I'll save this out to my Desktop as an IDML file and now I'll go to the File > Open dialog box and simply grab that IDML file and open it. Now, it's going to open this document as an Untitled Document. It literally rebuilt the document from scratch, based on the instructions in that IDML file. But it seems to clear out any kind of garbage that might have snuck in along the way. Now, it's rare that you need to do this, but I'm telling you, it can really get you out of some weird jams.

Installing a fence is as easy as 1-2-3 if you take these tips into consideration.
More in Outdoors
One of the trickiest installations is when you have a change in elevation. If you have to step the fence, set one section at one height and keep moving up as you go along. If you're going uphill or downhill, you'll need to account for this and do it in full increments or half-feet.

He and his Coppell teammates season came to an end with a tough loss to No. 1 DeSoto on Saturday, but all-in-all it was a successful season that showcased West in an offense that led the team to a 11-1 record.
He was led the team in scoring on the ground rushing for 627 yards and seven touchdowns.
"I just work hard in practice," West said of how he was bale to crack in to the lineup at the ultra competitive 5A program. "I worked hard when off-season started last year and I just did what I had to do."
On the field, West says he looks up to teammate an upperclassman Gavin McDaniel for inspiration for his game.
"Definitely Gavin," West answered when asked who he patterns himself after. "He pushes me to the limit and helps make me do the things I do."
"I feel like my speed and my vision are my biggest strengths. I make the quick cuts."
It's a little early to sort through to much on the recruiting front for the youngster, but he does like a couple of major BCS schools and if things go perfectly those are the two programs he strongly hopes to receive offers from.
"Definitely Oregon and LSU," West informed when asked who he has his eyes on. "Those are my two top schools. They run the ball a lot and are national programs."
"To earn offers from schools like that I have to work hard and run well out on the field and pass my classes."

However, his tenure with the company as vice president ended
shortly after Zuffa purchased Strikeforce in March. Now Afromowitz
works for Lion Fight Promotions, a muay Thai promoter based in Las
Vegas, but he still follows MMA.
He joined the Sherdog Radio Network's "Beatdown"
show to discuss his time with Strikeforce, why the company sold and
what its future could be.
On whether Zuffa will keep Strikeforce running: "I think the
writing's on the wall. They want one brand. It's like, I almost --
I hope to see them just get rid of it. It's a memory now. I'm being
honest with you. … I don't even want to think about it, see it.
It's on my mind still, but it's probably better, from my
perspective, if it just goes away. Let them do what they're going
to do. … It doesn't seem to make sense from their business model to
keep Strikeforce around."
On Zuffa letting him go: "In the end, I'm not going to lie,
it was disappointing. Not to toot my own horn, but really I was one
of the guys that helped build Strikeforce. There were only like
four of us to start with. Even when we were at our peak, there was
only about 12 of us. When it was taken over, people said, 'Oh,
we're not looking to replace you. We want you to excel at your jobs
and stay.' Then that quickly changed. I had a bad feeling when it
was acquired that that was going to happen, but certain people
asked me to have an open mind and listen and you know, I did. I
went to the meetings and I tried it out. It seemed workable from my
end, and then all of a sudden the tone quickly changed and they
really, just one by one, they let us all go.
Now all there is left is Scott [Coker] and his assistant. It's
unfortunate. You work so hard to build something. It was really a
part of my life. It was a big part of my life. I worked day in and
day out, weekends, nights. It was exciting. I liked the work.
Otherwise I wouldn't have been able to do it at the pace that I was
doing it. It hurts. I guess from their perspective they did what
they had to do. It's their business. Who am I to tell them how to
run their business? But you know, I would have appreciated some
more respect."
On whether Strikeforce CEO Scott Coker wanted to sell: "No,
absolutely not. It was his baby. … We talked about it and he said
it felt like he lost a kid. He didn't want to sell Strikeforce. It
was part of his life. It wasn't just about money. It was something
he loved to do. You wake up for it every morning. He didn't want to
sell Strikeforce any more than I wanted it to be sold. He was
basically told it was being sold."
On why Coker's partners at Silicon Valley Sports &
Entertainment wanted to sell: "For legal reasons I probably
can't go all into it, but there's a number of things. A number of
things. Maybe they just hit their threshold, their pain threshold,
and it was understandable. They're business people, and the numbers
didn't make sense at that point. In the end, that's why they got
out. But there's always things happening behind the scenes that no
one sees. The public isn't privy to it. There's a lot of mechanisms
that triggered it. One thing led to another to another to another.
… It wasn't producing what it needed to, and it was time to get
On whether Silicon Valley Sports anticipated Strikeforce making
major moves in the industry when they did: "When [SVS] first
signed on, there was no sign of the CBS and Showtime deal being
available a year later. That was not foreseen at all. When that
happened, it changed the entire landscape of the business. That
right there was a big plunge. They took the risk. I feel like we
were one step away from some big things financially. I think we
were one step away. … The signing of Fedor, from a brand
perspective, was huge and then the heavyweight tournament, there
was so much heat on it when we first announced it that we were one
step away, I feel like, from making a big, big dent. That step
didn't happen."
On the Fedor/M-1 Global deal: "I think it was a deal that
made it very difficult to be profitable. Getting Fedor, from a
branding perspective, was huge. That was a risk that was, at the
time, necessary to take. That was the biggest acquisition we had
made as a company. Signing Fedor put our company, put Strikeforce
in that many more households. Just the name Strikeforce got out
there so far. The same with Herschel
Walker. There's certain names that when you attach yourself to
[them], it just elevates the brand. It takes things to a new level.
It's an investment. At the time, it seemed like an investment that
was necessary. … I think maybe it wasn't the right move, but
everybody wanted it at the time. When we did it, it sure felt

How big is Captain America: The Winter Soldier going to get? Well, if Chris Evans' muscles are anything to go by, much bigger than the last one!
Box office experts are tracking it to surpass $80 million in its opening weekend alone!
The sequel is expected to benefit from what's called the "halo effect" of mega-hit The Avengers. Cap's teammates already saw big jumps in their opening weekend takes.
The first Thor took in $65.7 mil, but after The Avengers, the thunder god made it rain with $85.7 million! Likewise, Tony Stark got even richer, going from $128.1 million for Iron Man 2 to $174.1 million in Iron Man 3.
That's over a 30% increase in both franchises! Captain America: The First Avenger also opened to about $65 mil, so $80 mil is looking like an easy hurdle!
And repeat business might be good too! Word is that both Disney and Marvel are so happy with the film's quality, they've already greenlit number three!
We guess green is the operative word![Image via Marvel.]

20. idroidequis (Posts: 103; Member since: 23 Jan 2013)
Obliviously you dont. Cause any and every black friday deal is just old product that retailers slap on some new look and rebrand as some new product just to get you to buy it. Or its some third party made generic stuff that they buy in bulk and sell for "great deals". Return products are resold on third party auction sites like best buys many auction sites. But Im sure someone like you would know since you work there.

Good deals. However, Best Buy will push to you their black tie warranty program and that can be a pain to deal with.

75 Dead from China Car Parts Plant Blast, Poor Safety Measures Blamed

At least 75 people have died after a car parts plant in China exploded over the weekend. The plant located in eastern Jiangsu Province manufactured for a number of global car companies, including U.S. giant General Motors (GM).

The explosion occurred at 7:37 am in Kunshan City, which is not far from Shanghai. National broadcaster CCTV said the city holds a number of automotive factories.
Most of the victims were young migrant workers. The day's shift had just started then at 7 am and should end at 11 pm.
Initial investigations showed the explosion was set off by the ignition of powder or dust from the production process.
The People's Daily newspaper reported that authorities have detained five company officials of Zhongrong Metal Products Co.
Still, a workers' rights group believed the death toll could have been minimised or accidents could have been prevented had the facility installed proper measures.
"Safety measures like ventilation systems should have prevented such accumulation of dust particles. This tragedy is a result of lax safety standards in the workplace," U.S.-based China Labor Watch said in a statement.
Safety experts said that dust suspended in the air in the right concentration are perfect ingredients for explosions. They even make non-explosive materials become explosive under certain conditions.
Chinese President Xi Jinping has called for severe punishment on those responsible for the explosion. He likewise ordered safety checks to prevent further disasters.
From January to June this year alone, China had already 19 serious safety incidents that killed over 200 people, Xinhua said on its microblog on Aug 2.
General Motors had confirmed that Zhongrong is an indirect supplier, manufacturing parts for Dicastal, a global supplier to the Detroit-based automaker.
"Our direct suppliers are required to source from tier-2 suppliers who must meet both in-country environment and safety standards, as well as quality standards," the AFP quoted General Motors.
The plant employs 450 people, according to the company's Web site. Its operations include plating and polishing of metal parts such as wheel hubs.
Xinhua said there were 264 people at the site at the time of the explosion.

Not much has gone right for the Cleveland Indians in the second half of the season. Most of the hitters have been in slumps, and most of the pitchers have struggled. However, one pitcher who is making the most of a bad situation is rookie right-hander Corey Kluber. Kluber pitched six solid innings Monday against a very good Detroit Tigers lineup to help lead the Indians to a rare victory, 3-2. He gave up two runs on six hits, striking out four and walking one. It was Kluber's first major league victory. In seven starts since being recalled from Class AAA Columbus on Aug. 2, he is 1-3 with a 4.79 ERA. Those are not exceptional numbers, but Kluber has nonetheless impressed Indians officials in his first month with the team. Manager Manny Acta has consistently praised Kluber's stuff, saying it is good enough to win at the major league level. In particular, Acta has raved about Kluber's slider, which Acta says is a "swing and miss" pitch. At Columbus, Klube...

Pittsburgh Pirates Rumors
Minor Moves: Martinez, McGuiness, Abreu, Rodriguez
Here are Sunday's minor moves from around MLB:
- The Pirates have outrighted Chris McGuiness and Michael Martinez to Triple-A Indianapolis after the pair cleared waivers, tweets the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review's Rob Biertempfel. McGuiness and Martinez were both designated for assignment this past week.
Earlier updates:
- The Mets will add outfielder Bobby Abreu to their 40-man roster tomorrow when his contract is officially purchased from Triple-A Las Vegas, reports Adam Rubin of ESPNNewYork.com. The move fills the remaining spot on the team's 40-man roster. This will be the 40-year-old's second stint with the Mets this year as he was designated for assignment in August after posting a .238/.331/.336 line in 142 plate appearances. Ten days later, he inked a minor league deal to remain with the organization.
- The Rangers have announced they have purchased the contract of infielder Guilder Rodriguez from Double-A Frisco. To make room on the 40-man roster, the club placed Yu Darvish on the 60-day disabled list. Rodriguez holds the distinction for playing the most minor league games of any current player (1,095) without MLB experience. The 31-year-old, profiled by Anthony Andro of FOX Sports Southwest, has a slash of .260/.340/.290 in 384 plate appearances for Frisco and Triple-A Round Rock this season while playing all four infield positions, as well as both corner outfield spots.
- There are currently five players residing in DFA limbo, per MLBTR's DFA Tracker: Michael Kohn (Angels), Chris Dwyer and Blake Wood (Royals), and Matt Hague and Darin Mastroianni (Blue Jays).

Quick Hits: Nix, Astros, Buehrle, Uehara
Every small-market team dreams of building a rotation of young, controllable arms, and Peter Gammons (in his latest piece for Gammons Daily) feels the Indians have done just that in Corey Kluber, Carlos Carrasco, Danny Salazar and Trevor Bauer. Salazar was signed as an undrafted high schooler and the other three were acquired in trades, giving the Tribe an enviable collection of pitchers for both their wild card push this season and to stay in contention for years to come.
Here's some more from around the game as we head into the weekend…
- The Astros have made little progress in negotiations with draft pick Jacob Nix and the situation between the two sides seems likely to proceed to a hearing, CBS Sports' Jon Heyman reports. The MLBPA filed a grievance on Nix's behalf after Houston withdrew an offer to the fifth-rounder that had seemingly been agreed-upon.
- Astros GM Jeff Luhnow hasn't decided whether to make his managerial search candidates known to the public, he tells Jose de Jesus Ortiz of the Houston Chronicle.
- Mark Buehrle's future with the Blue Jays is discussed by several Sportsnet writers and broadcasters. Buehrle will earn $19MM in 2015, his last year under contract, and the feeling amongst the panel is that the Jays could explore trading the veteran in order to free up payroll space. While Buehrle still has value on the mound and as a mentor to Toronto's young starters, that might not be worth the $19MM piece he takes out of what could be a limited Jays budget.
- Koji Uehara will be temporarily replaced by Edward Mujica as the Red Sox closer, manager John Farrell told reporters today (including MLB.com's Steven Petrella). Uehara has slumped badly over his last few outings, indicating to Brian MacPherson of the Providence Journal that GM Ben Cherington may have erred in not dealing Uehara at the trade deadline. Uehara is a free agent this winter and, at the very least, his struggles have eliminated any chance of the Sox extending him a qualifying offer.
- Right-hander John Holdzkom began his season in independent ball and now may end it on the Pirates' Major League roster. Baseball America's J.J. Cooper looks at Holdzkom's seven-year journey through the minors that finally led to his Major League debut last Tuesday.

Pirates Designate Chris McGuiness
The Pirates have designated first baseman Chris McGuiness for assignment, the club announced. The move creates a 40-man roster spot for right-hander John Holdzkom, whose contract was selected last night.
McGuiness was originally acquired by the Bucs from the Rangers last December in exchange for righty Miles Mikolas. He didn't see any action at the big league level for Pittsburgh this season and hit .264/.358/.412 with nine homers in 489 PA for Triple-A Indianapolis. Originally drafted in the 13th round of the 2009 draft by the Red Sox, McGuiness has an .801 OPS over 2438 career PA in the minors. The 26-year-old made his Major League debut in June 2013, appearing in 10 games with Texas.
McGuiness joins Mike Carp (Rangers), Bruce Chen (Royals), Rich Hill (Yankees) and Sergio Santos (Blue Jays) in DFA limbo, according to MLBTR's DFA Tracker.

Quick Hits: Orioles, Athletics, Brewers, Pirates
The Orioles made two trades last night, adding infielder Kelly Johnson and outfielder Alejandro De Aza, and any trade involving big-leaguers has an effect on not only a team's 25-man roster, but its clubhouse. Via Roch Kubatko of MASNsports.com, manager Buck Showalter provides an interesting look into how trades affect players who aren't being dealt. Showalter says, for example, that following the acquisition of De Aza, he spoke to Delmon Young and other players about what the trade meant for them. "It's unknown that drives players crazy and you want them to understand things," says Showalter. "I had a real good idea what they were going to say. They're usually pretty short conversations, but you have them nonetheless." Here's more from around the big leagues.
- The Athletics' trade for Adam Dunn might not have been needed had they not traded Yoenis Cespedes to the Red Sox in the Jon Lester deal, Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports opines. Oakland's offense has struggled since the trade, and while Cespedes' departure isn't entirely to blame (there have been slumps and injuries throughout the Athletics lineup), it hasn't helped.
- In the wake of the Brewers' acquisition of Jonathan Broxton today, Rosenthal notes (via Twitter) that Milwaukee also went after David Price last month. Talks with the Rays did not progress very far, however, because the Brewers were unwilling to give up top young pitcher Jimmy Nelson.
- The Pirates appear unlikely to make any trades today, David Manel of Bucs Dugout writes. "It's been a lower percentage of successful claims than ever before," says GM Neal Huntington. "You expect the American League guys not to make it through the American League. But there have been some guys in the National League that have been claimed before they've gotten to us, which has been a bit of a surprise."

NL Notes: Pirates, Phillies, Marlins
Throughout the Pirates organization, the first base position has become the home of players who have struggled at other positions, Rob Biertempfel of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review writes. Of course, it's not unusual for players at more demanding defensive positions to have to move to first base, but what's distinctive about the Pirates' case is the precise reasons players are moving to first. At the big league level, Pedro Alvarez is moving across the diamond because of inexplicable problems making routine throws to first. And in the minors, Stetson Allie moved to first (with a stop at third base) after flaming out as a pitcher, while catcher Tony Sanchez has experimented with the position after troubles throwing out basestealers. The Pirates' future at first base, though, might belong to another prospect, Josh Bell, who's learning the position for a more straightforward reason — with Starling Marte, Andrew McCutchen and Gregory Polanco set to man the Pirates' outfield for the next several years, there might not be room for Bell there. Here's more from the National League.
- The August trade deadline is quickly approaching, and the Phillies still don't appear likely to deal A.J. Burnett or Jonathan Papelbon, CSNPhilly.com's Jim Salisbury reports. Both players are owed significant money beyond this season. Whatever happens, Salisbury notes that Miguel Alfredo Gonzalez, Cesar Hernandez and top prospect Maikel Franco, at least, are expected to be among the Phillies' September call-ups.
- The Marlins' fire sale following the 2012 season is beginning to pay dividends, writes Tyler Kepner of the New York Times. In particular, the massive deal that sent Jose Reyes, Mark Buehrle and Josh Johnson to Toronto has returned Henderson Alvarez and Adeiny Hechavarria, plus Jake Marisnick, a key piece in the deal that brought Jarred Cosart last month. "Our owner, Jeffrey Loria, took a lot of heat for [the trade with Toronto]," says Marlins executive Michael Hill. "But we really felt we needed to reset who we were and who we were going to be moving forward." Their young outfield has rounded into form, with Christian Yelich and Marcell Ozuna complementing superstar Giancarlo Stanton, and the Marlins can add to an already exciting young core with the return of Jose Fernandez sometime early next season.

East Notes: Castillo, Herrera, Gillick
New Red Sox outfielder Rusney Castillo will make his minor league debut tomorrow, Tim Britton of the Providence Journal writes. Castillo, who has not played in an official game since 2012, will debut in the Gulf Coast League. The minor league season is, of course, almost at an end — the GCL Red Sox have a three-game series against the Yankees in the GCL finals. Britton notes that Double-A Portland and Triple-A Pawtucket are both also headed to their league playoffs, so Castillo could soon head to one of those affiliates, possibly making his way to the Majors later this year. Here's more from the East divisions.
- Second baseman Dilson Herrera made his big-league debut with the Mets last night and went 0-for-3 with an error. "To be honest, it was a little bit of nerves going into the first inning, but after that it was fine," said Herrera, via MetsBlog. "I felt good the rest of the night." Herrera has made great strides since the Mets acquired him from the Pirates with Vic Black in the Marlon Byrd trade last year, and after a half-season breakout at Double-A Binghamton, he now looks like a top prospect. The Pirates paid heavily for Byrd, but he did hit .318/.357/.486 down the stretch for them, also hitting a homer in the Bucs' win in the Wild Card game against the Reds.
- Highly regarded former big-league GM Pat Gillick is now the Phillies' interim team president as David Montgomery takes a medical leave of absence, but GM Ruben Amaro says team operations will be "status quo," Jake Kaplan of the Daily News writes. Gillick was the Phillies' GM when they won the World Series in 2008, but Amaro says Gillick's current duties will only be temporary.

Minor Moves: Wilking Rodriguez, Tommy Field
Here are the day's minor moves:
- Not long after inking him to a minor league deal, the Yankees have released righty Wilking Rodriguez, Baseball America's Matt Eddy tweets. Rodriguez, 24, had solid minor league numbers with the Royals, but was set loose when the club acquired Josh Willingham and needed a 40-man spot. He did not make an appearance in the New York system.
- Days after being designated for assignment by the Pirates, infielder Tommy Field has been outrighted to Triple-A, according to the International League transactions page. Field was claimed by Pittsburgh from the Angles on August 10. On the year, he owns a .286/.357/.428 slash over 387 Triple-A plate appearances.

Royals Claim Jayson Nix From Pirates
The Royals have claimed infielder Jayson Nix off waivers from the Pirates, Andy McCullough of the Kansas City Star tweets. Nix was designated for assignment by Pittsburgh on Monday.
Nix, 31, has bounced around a good deal this year, and will now join his fourth organization on the season. He brings plenty of positional versatility to the table, though his lifetime .214/.284/.347 triple-slash does not give much reason for significant expectations. On the year, Nix has slashed .133/.188/.173 in 82 big league plate appearances.
Kansas City will look to make use of Nix as a part of its September roster expansion plan, as McCullough tweets that the team may not even activate him until after the end of the month.

Pirates Designate Jayson Nix For Assignment
The Pirates announced that they have designated infielder Jayson Nix for assignment in order to clear roster space for Jose Tabata.
The 31-year-old Nix appeared in 16 games for the Pirates this season but totaled just 39 plate appearances and batted just .111/.158/.111. In 82 combined plate appearances between the Pirates and Phillies, he's batted .133/.188/.173. While those numbers aren't exactly enticing, Nix does have a 12-homer and a 14-homer season under his belt, and he's posted double-digit stolen base totals twice as well.
Overall, Nix is a lifetime .214/.284/.347 hitter in 1456 Major League plate appearances between the Rockies, White Sox, Indians, Blue Jays, Yankees, Rays, Phillies and Pirates. He has experience at second base, shortstop, third base and both outfield corners, though his outfield work has been fairly limited.
Tabata's recall was first reported earlier today along with the news that the Pirates will briefly demote top prospect Gregory Polanco to Triple-A. Polanco is expected to rejoin the team on Sept. 1 when rosters expand and will, of course, still be eligible for postseason play. He's in the midst of a woeful 1-for-30 slump, however, whereas Tabata has been swinging well at Triple-A Indianapolis of late, hitting .349/.404/.422 over his past 22 games.

Bartolo Colon is on revocable waivers, and while he could be of interest to a contending team in need of pitching such as the Dodgers or Angels, Marc Carig of Newsday hears that the Mets will not simply let Colon go to a claiming club in order to shed the remainder of his salary (Twitter links). The Mets feel that they can hang onto Colon and find a good trade for him in the offseason, when the remaining commitment will be just one year at $11MM.
Elsewhere in baseball's Eastern divisions…
- MLB.com's Anthony DiComo runs down the Mets' options with Colon and lists some potential destinations, speculating that the A's and Pirates could be under-the-radar fits. While he ultimately deems the A's a long shot (noting that they would only place a claim to block the Angels), he does remind that the Bucs were interested in Jon Lester prior to the July 31 deadline, and the Pirates did successfully complete a waiver trade with the Mets in 2013 (Marlon Byrd and John Buck for Dilson Herrera and Vic Black).
- Nationals trade acquisition Jose Lobaton hasn't hit much this season, but the catcher has provided plenty of defensive value and credits one of his former teammates, James Wagner of the Washington Post writes. Lobaton says that the years he spent learning about pitch framing from Jose Molina have made perhaps the biggest impact on his game. Lobaton ranks 35th out of 91 catchers in total extra strikes added via framing, according to Baseball Prospectus. (Unsurprisingly, his former teammate Molina ranks first.)
- Fangraphs' Kiley McDaniel provides a brief scouting report on new Red Sox outfielder Rusney Castillo. As McDaniel notes, while Castillo added a significant amount of muscle since defecting, the extra muscle hasn't caused his 70-grade speed to diminish. The key to Castillo's future will be his hit and power tools. While they project to be average (think .260-.270 average and 15-20 homers), they're volatile enough that either could swing to above-average or below-average in short order.
- Despite repeated stories that the Marlins will not trade Giancarlo Stanton, his name has appeared in trade speculation, but Scott Lauber of the Boston Herald thinks the Red Sox should have their eyes on another NL East corner outfielder. Jason Heyward, one of the only core players on the Braves not to receive a long-term deal that extended the team's control this offseason, would look very good in a Red Sox uniform, Lauber opines. Lauber suggests that the BoSox should look to trade a package of three young players to the Braves to land Heyward and extend him so that his prime years come with Boston. Heyward's left-handed bat would help balance the lineup, and his elite defense is a good fit for Fenway Park's tricky right field, he adds.
