Topics: Insurance, Marketplace, Politics, Health Reform, States
Apr 26, 2011
News outlets are reporting on various aspects of the health law, including the low level of interest seen so far in high-risk pools, the varying reactions states are having as they make decisions about health insurance exchanges and the ongoing efforts to repeal the measure's Independent Payment Advisory Board.
Marketplace (public radio): Not Enough People Dive Into High-Risk Pools The insurance exchanges for people with preexisting conditions aren't living up to expectations. And politics plays a part. ... High-risk pools [are] insurance pools meant for people with pre-existing conditions who are considered high-risk. Another way to say that is sick people who insurance companies usually try to turn away. The health care law set aside $5 billion to help those folks. But one year later, few people are taking that help (Warner, 4/25).
Politico Pro: Utah Exchange: Low-Cost Model Or Loss Leader? Utah likes to tout the leanness of its health exchange, a free-market establishment that the state says runs on the shoestring budget of $500,000 — a particularly remarkable number compared to the $40 million budget of the Massachusetts exchange. But Utah's feat is less impressive when you consider this: the main Utah health exchange vendor has operated at a loss on the contract. "We're not that far away from this being profitable," says Rich Gallun, CEO of health technology vendor bswift, which has the largest contract with the Utah exchange. "As long as the state of Utah was committed, that opportunity in itself would make the investment worthwhile. Beyond that, if we can help make Utah a success, we're confident that other states will follow" (Kliff, 4/26).
CQ HealthBeat: States Say 'Yes' and 'No' to Insurance Exchange Creation Lawmakers from two states enacted laws in recent days that show their hands on the matter of health exchanges, moves that reflect the sharp divide nationwide on how to deal with that provision of the health law. Washington state lawmakers, on the one hand, passed legislation that pushes ahead exchange implementation under the dictates of the law. But Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal signed a measure that in theory would allow the state to refuse to create an exchange under the overhaul (Reichard, 4/25).
Denver Post: Health-Insurance Exchange Bill Gets Initial OK In Senate The Democratic-controlled Senate on Monday overcame Republican objections to give initial approval to a bill that would create health-insurance exchanges. Senate Bill 200 has had a strange journey since being introduced by the bipartisan team of Sen. Betty Boyd, D-Lakewood, and House Majority Leader Amy Stephens, R-Monument. Facing Tea Party pressure over federal health care reform, Stephens at one point was supporting an amendment that backers of the bill said would kill it. She later backed off proposing the amendment in committee amid complaints from business groups, who overwhelmingly support the bill (Hoover, 4/26).
The Connecticut Mirror: Health Care Reform Draws Thin Crowd With Broad Concerns The crowd wasn't big, but the first public forum on the health insurance exchange, a key piece of federal health reform, drew a range of perspectives from the 17 people who showed up. ... They didn't get concrete answers; ... many answers don't exist yet. The state is at the beginning of a multiyear planning process to build the marketplace for purchasing health care coverage (Levin Becker, 4/26).
CQ HealthBeat: Business Groups Urge IPAB Repeal A coalition dominated by business groups sent a letter to Rep. Phil Roe, R-Tenn., on Monday endorsing his legislation to eliminate the Independent Payment Advisory Board. "IPAB" is a key element of President Obama's plan to reduce Medicare spending growth and to trim deficit spending. Under the health care law, starting in 2014, IPAB will have the power to issue recommendations to reduce Medicare spending if it exceeds certain levels. Congress can block the board's recommendations from taking effect, but it is not easy for lawmakers to do so (Reichard, 4/25).

West Valley City • Last year, Hunter High's Robotics Club smoked the competition.
This year, it's hoping for a little better performance.
Students have begun building their entry for the 21st annual FIRST Robotics Competition — a tech event Hunter has participated in for three consecutive years.
After literally blowing smoke last year when metal shavings slipped into a motor, filling the Jon M. Huntsman Center with a cloud of white smoke, the Wolverines are using last year's malfunctions as this year's motivation.
"It failed spectacularly," said Scott Watson, a Hunter electronics instructor and project adviser. "We'll be sure that won't happen this year."
Hunter's will be one of approximately 6,000 entries in this year's competition, which claims to be "the varsity sport for the mind." As many as 50 teams will test their robots in a regional competition at the Maverik Center in March.
This year's "game" is titled Rebound Rumble and requires the 120-pound robots to launch Nerf-type basketballs through several hoops surrounding the court.
Teams were given unassembled robotic kits in early January. They have six weeks to assemble the hardware and design the software. The robots then are packaged and shipped away, only to be reunited with teams on the first day of competition.
Senior Ryan Fenner said the biggest challenge will be devising the mechanics to allow the robot to "rebound" balls off the ground and launch them at the hoops.
"Last year, we had to pick up things," said Fenner, who participated last year. "We used an arm. But we are trying to stay away from arms because there are a lot of complications with all the different motors and getting them to function right."
The students' plan was to have the robot driving by the end of the first week, then spend two weeks focusing on picking up and shooting balls. The final three weeks will be spent honing the shooting accuracy, using either two spinning wheels or a conveyor belt.
"Everyone's working together," senior Mike Alexander said. "We're getting the basic frames up."
Students receive help from teachers and professionals. They also are being mentored by engineers from Hill Air Force Base.
"That's one of the best parts of the program," Watson said. "Students aren't doing it entirely on their own. They get professional engineers to come work with them."
Watson said teams will spend anywhere from $5,000 to $8,500 on parts and materials. Hunter's team is sponsored by satellite communications company SRT and Patent Law Works, and also receives help from local businesses to offset the cost.
The FIRST Robotics Competition is expected to include teams from nine states. Other Utah schools — such Skyline, West and Logan's InTech Collegiate High — also are expected to compete.
Although the event is competition, with top teams advancing to the FIRST Championship in St. Louis in April, Watson said teams and organizers promote and practice "gracious professionalism."
"At last year's regional, Cyprus High School didn't realize how difficult it was and didn't ask for help," Watson said. "They sent a robot that was unassembled. On the first day of the regional, every team sent one or two people over to help them. Four hours later, they had their robot together and working, and it made it to the third round of eliminations.
"This program is just amazing for that. I wouldn't put so much time into it if I wasn't impressed by what they are doing."
This year, Hunter's team consists of eight students. Watson expects that number to grow to about 20 as the project moves along.
Sophomore Alex Ford, the "newbie" of the group, said he joined because he is considering a career as a robotic engineer.
"Robots are amazing," Ford said. "If you get past all the technical side of it, you can build something really cool."
Cool and, he hopes, smoke-free.
I, robot
P Hunter High is preparing for the FIRST Robotic Competition, a tech event it has entered for three straight years.
Schools from across the nation build 120-pound robots to compete in a yearly challenge. This year's task is a basketball-themed game, involving Nerf balls and hoops.
The Maverik Center will host as many as 50 teams at a FIRST regional competition March 15-17.

Ninth Circus Court Decides Criminals Can Vote, Entire American Legal System Racist
Crossposted at Ohio's best political blog, Athens Runaway.
The other day, the most overturned court in the nation, the Ninth CircusCircuit Court of Appeals, decided that Washington state felons who are currently in jails across the state of Ecotopia Washington. Because jails are racist.
According to the Seattle Post-Intelligencer:
Under the Washington law at issue, citizens convicted of a felony lose the right to vote until they are released from custody and off of Department of Corrections supervision. The 2-1 ruling by a 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals panel puts those restrictions in doubt, the majority reviewing the voting rights lawsuit found that the state restrictions unfairly penalize minorities. [...]
Recent Department of Corrections figures show that about 28 percent of the state's prison population is African-American, according to statistics cited in the suit. In contrast, African-Americans account for about 3 percent of Washington's population.
"The disparities aren't reflective of the actual participation in crime," said Ryan Haygood, co-director of the NAACP Legal Defense Fund, which participated in the suit. "They're reflective of the discrimination in the criminal justice system."
Speaking on the ruling, Washington Secretary of State Sam Reed said the court's decision came as a surprise, in part because three circuit court panels elsewhere in the country came to opposite conclusions while reviewing similar cases.
Reed said he believes the state prohibition against prisoner voting remains appropriate.
"That's part of the penalty," Reed said. "A person loses their rights when they violate the rights of others by perpetrating a felony. … As long as when they get out they get a chance to rejoin society, that's the important part."
You hear that? The entire concept of the American justice system is racist. Add in some jokes about teabagging, and you've got a slow newsday over at MSNBC.
Back to the article:
Among the evidence offered to support the plaintiffs' claims was a recent study on drug arrests in Seattle. The 2004 study, conducted by University of Washington sociologist Katherine Beckett, found that blacks and Latinos were disproportionately arrested on drug charges in part because of a police emphasis on street dealing of crack cocaine.
As a white person who's concerned about his fellow man, I have a word of advice for those who are black or Latino, and worried about being arrested by the police. We now go to Athens Runaway legal correspondent, Jim Carey. Jim?
Thank you, Jim.
If said blacks and Latinos stopped selling crack cocaine, black and Latino felons wouldn't be arrested for selling crack cocaine, and therefore would not be stripped of their voting rights while they're in prison. Also, as a result of this hypothetical stoppage of crack sales, the Ninth Circus Court would not have had this stupid-ass case to rule on.
However, according to the P-I, there is a bitter little ray of sunshine here.
As Washington Secretary of State Sam Reed observed, three circuit court panels elsewhere in the country (TRANSLATION: IN SANE PARTS OF THE NATION) came to opposite conclusions while reviewing similar cases. For what it's worth, the values of "saner part of the nation" are Florida, Massachusetts, and New York.
"That's part of the penalty," Reed said. "A person loses their rights when they violate the rights of others by perpetrating a felony."
Here's a clue-bat, idiots. If your state makes Flori-duh, Taxachusetts, and the state that gave us Eliot Spitzer look sane by comparison, you are cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs.
Reed's press release goes on to say that the state of Washington plans to appeal this case to someone who's not a raging moron.

North Carolina 'worst off' in impact of Obamacare on insurance rates
by Mitch Kokai, The Locker Room, September 25, 2013.
Less than a month after data from the Manhattan Institute prompted Carolina Journal to report that Obamacare could lead to 80 percent premium increases for many North Carolina health insurance customers, MI's Avik Roy offers an even more shocking assessment for Forbes of Obamacare's impact on the Tar Heel State.
Based on a Manhattan Institute analysis of the HHS numbers, Obamacare will increase underlying insurance rates for younger men by an average of 97 to 99 percent, and for younger women by an average of 55 to 62 percent. Worst off is North Carolina, which will see individual-market rates triple for women, and quadruple for men. [Emphasis added.]
Roy goes on to explain how he and his colleagues made their assessment.
We look at rates for 27, 40, and 64 year olds; and rates for men and women. (Under Obamacare, rates for men and women are the same, which has the net effect of disproportionately increasing rates for men, who generally paid less under the old system.) The HHS report offers rates for 27-year-olds; and rates for the average-aged exchange participant, a figure that varies by state, but seems to generally land in the mid-thirties.
So, we conducted two comparisons between pre-ACA data and post-ACA data, as reported by HHS. The first comparison is between the cheapest plan available to 27-year-olds pre- and post-Obamacare. The second is between the cheapeast plan available to the average exchange participant, and to the typical 40-year-old pre-Obamacare. We would have liked to have compared rates for older individuals, but HHS didn't report that data.
Follow the link above to see charts for 40-year-old men and women. The information is no better for Tar Heels.
But what about the taxpayer-funded subsidies designed to offset these rising costs? (One can picture the News & Observer trying at this moment to put lipstick on the pig.) Here's Roy's response:
All of the analyses I've discussed thus far involve changes in the underlying cost of health insurance for people who buy it for themselves. Many progressives object to this comparison, because it doesn't take into account the impact of Obamacare's subsidies on the net cost of insurance for low-income Americans.
I've long argued that it's irresponsible to ignore the change in underlying premiums, because subsidies only protect some people. Middle-class Americans face the double-whammy of higher insurance premiums, and higher taxes to pay for other people's subsidies. However, it is important to understand how subsidies will impact the decisions by Americans as to whether or not to participate in the exchanges. …
… Here's the bottom line: most people with average incomes will pay more under Obamacare for individually-purchased insurance than they did before.

At the same time I received the email with this blog post, I received an update from the White House on how well Obamacare is doing bringing rates down.
Of course, I did not finish reading the crap from the WH. As soon as it started out with garbage about lowering premiums, I knew the rest of the update would be full of nothing but lies.
For HHS to compare EXPECTED premium increases under Obamacare in 2016 to rates as they are expected to be in 2014 is completely useless information. Of course they know this. If they did the same study as this blogger did, comparing pre-socialized medicine rates with post socialized medicine rates, it would be obvious to everyone that Ted Cruz is right.
I simply do not understand why Republican Senators haven't gotten the message yet. If they respond the same as if we had voted in Democrats, then why not simply let Democrats have the entire Senate. Same results. Same socialism. Crap!

Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Customer Reviews Q&A Articles & Videos Accessories Our take on the MTX RTL12-04 by John Pollard What's a component sub and why would I want one? A component sub is simply a speaker that's designed to reproduce bass once it's installed in a compatible enclosure. Think about the impact of a movie soundtrack in a big theater or even in your own home HDTV setup. A component sub can add the same kind of power to the music in your car. And a car sub is not all about the boom that you hear on a street corner (although that's cool too) - you can pair a component sub with your choice of enclosure to get bass just the way you like it, from tight and punchy to fat and loose. And once you experience music in your car with a well-tuned subwoofer, you'll never go back. MTX's Road Thunder subs dish out heavy-hitting bass in your ride, perfect for filling out rock, R&B, jazz, classical, or anything else on your playlist. The RTL12-04 sub features an 12" polypropylene cone supported by a big rubber surround that resists cracking or separating. The sub's cooling system features forced-air venting in the stamped solid-steel frame that keeps the voice coil cool. The uniquely shaped spider assembly and extended pole piece ensure linear cone movement, so your bass sounds full, deep, and clean. MTX optimizes this Road Thunder sub for sealed, ported, and bandpass enclosures so you can choose the type of bass you want in your ride. And MTX protects this sub with their unique 5-year warranty. To drive this subwoofer, we recommend a mono subwoofer amplifier that can put out between 75 and 300 watts RMS at 4 ohms.

We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices. Features Enclosure Compatibility Warranty Features Terminals: The woofer features one pair of heavy-duty spring post terminals which can accept single banana plugs, pin connectors, or bare wire up to 10-gauge. Spider Plateau Venting: Heat from the voice coil is vented through vents that surround the back of the spider. As the woofer travels back and forth, cool air is pulled in and heated air is pushed out. Asymmetrical Linear Drive System (ALDS): The Asymmetrical Linear Drive System consists of a flat, progressive spider that improves suspension and an extended pole piece that smoothes out the cone's linear motion. The result is high output and low distortion. Enclosure Compatibility Sealed Box: For the best possible sound quality where space is a premium MTX recommends a sealed enclosure with an internal volume of 1.0 ft³. Sealed enclosures provide the most control over a woofer, will handle a lot of power, and provide accurate sonic reproduction, making them suitable to all types of music. Vented Box: The recommended vented box has a net internal volume of 2.32 ft³ with a slotted port 13-3/4" x 2-1/2" x 28-3/4". Vented (or ported) enclosures typically provide better overall efficiency than sealed so they are suitable for use with smaller amplifiers, giving you more bass output from less power. Warranty 5 Year Warranty Terms: This product carries a 5-Year Prorated Warranty with the following terms: Years 1-2: Products found to be defective in materials or workmanship during the first two years will be, at Mitek's option, repaired or replaced by Mitek at no charge. The warranty period does not renew, but continues on from the original date of purchase. Years 3-5: The purchase price of an item which becomes defective after the first two years and prior to the end of the warranty period will be prorated and credited toward the purchase of a new MTX product. The amount of proration is determined by dividing the original purchase price by the number of months in the warranty period (60), then multiplying the result by the number of months remaining in the warranty period.

Home > Source4Women > Health & Wellness Tools & Resources > Nutrition > Confusion on Fats
By Kathleen Zelman, MPH, RD, LD
Fear of fat affects us all and many people think our weight loss and heart health problems would be solved if we just eliminated fat from our diets. Unfortunately, it's not that simple. We actually need fats, which are an important part of a healthy diet: They provide essential fatty acids, keep our skin soft, deliver fat-soluble vitamins, and are a great source of energizing fuel. But it's easy to get confused about good fats vs. bad fats, how much fat we should eat, margarine vs. butter and the role omega-3 fatty acids play in heart health.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's 2005 Dietary Guidelines recommend that adults get 20%-35% of their calories from fats. At a minimum, we need at least 10% of our calories to come from fat but most adults get more like 34-40% because fats taste good and are in many of our favorite foods.
Dietary fat plays a significant role in obesity because fats are calorie-dense, at 9 calories per gram, while carbs and protein have only 4 calories per gram, and alcohol has 7 calories per gram. It's easy to overeat fats because they lurk in so many foods we love: French fries, burgers, processed foods, cakes, cookies, chocolate, ice cream, thick steaks, and cheese.
Choosing the right types of dietary fats to consume is one of the most important factors in reducing the risk of developing heart disease. But while choosing healthier fats is better for your heart, when it comes to your waistline, all fats have about the same number of calories. And cutting the total fat in your diet not only helps you shed pounds, it can also help you live longer and healthier.
Basically, there are two groups of fats: saturated and unsaturated. Within each group are several more types of fats.
Let's start with the good guys the unsaturated fats. Unsaturated fats include polyunsaturated fatty acids and monounsaturated fats. Both mono- and polyunsaturated fats, when eaten in moderation and used to replace saturated or trans fats, can have the greatest impact and help lower cholesterol levels and reduce your risk of heart disease.
Polyunsaturated fats, found mostly in vegetable oils, help lower both blood cholesterol levels and triglyceride levels.
One type of polyunsaturated fat is omega-3 fatty acids, whose potential heart-health benefits have gotten a lot of attention. Omega-3s are found in fatty fish (salmon, trout, catfish, mackerel), as well as flaxseed and walnuts. And it's fish that contains the most effective, "longchain" type of omega-3s. The American Heart Association recommends eating 2 servings of fatty fish each week.
Plant sources are a good substitute, but they are not as effective as fatty fish in decreasing cardiovascular disease. Do keep in mind that your twice-weekly fish should not be deep-fat fried!
The other "good guy" unsaturated fats are monounsaturated fats, thought to reduce the risk of heart disease. Mediterranean countries consume lots of these primarily in the form of olive oil and this dietary component is credited with the low levels of heart disease in those countries. While monounsaturated fats like olive oil are a good choice for a fat, consuming a serving at every meal is unlikely to slash belly fat.
Monounsaturated fats are typically liquid at room temperature but solidify if refrigerated. These heart-healthy fats are typically a good source of the antioxidant vitamin E, a nutrient often lacking in American diets. They can be found in olives; avocados; hazelnuts; almonds; Brazil nuts; cashews; sesame seeds; pumpkin seeds; and olive, canola, and peanut oils.
There are two types of fat that should be eaten in lesser amounts: saturated and trans fatty acids. In fact, trans fats should not be eaten at all. Both can raise cholesterol levels and increase the risk for heart disease.
Saturated fats are found in animal products (meat, poultry skin, high-fat dairy, and eggs) and in vegetable fats that are liquid at room temperature, such as coconut and palm oils. The 2005 Dietary Guidelines recommend limiting saturated fats to 10% or less of your total calories, while the American Heart Association recommends keeping them to just 7% of total calories.
There are two types of trans fats: the naturally occurring type, found in small amounts in dairy and meat; and the artificial kind that occur when liquid oils are hardened into "partially hydrogenated" fats.
Natural trans fats are not the type of concern, especially if you choose low-fat dairy products and lean meats. The real worry in the American diet is the artificial trans fats that have virtually been removed from our food supply because of the negative media attention. They still lurk and are used in frying, baked goods, cookies, icings, crackers, packaged snack foods, microwave popcorn, and some margarines.
Some experts think these fats are even more dangerous than saturated fats.
Most foods contain a combination of fats but are classified according to the dominant fat. This chart lists sources of the good-for-you unsaturated fats as well as some examples of fats you want to avoid.
The best way to keep on top of the fats in your diet is to become a label reader. On the nutrition facts panel, you'll find all the information you need to make healthful choices. Look for foods that are low in total fat and well as in saturated and trans fats. Bear in mind that a product whose label boasts it is "trans fat free" can actually have up to 0.5 grams of trans fats per serving and these can add up quickly.
Here are more tips to help you reduce the total amount of fat in your diet and make sure the fats you consume are the healthy ones:
Margarine is made from poly and monounsaturated vegetable oils, so it contains no cholesterol. Butter, on the other hand, is made from animal fat, so it contains cholesterol and saturated fat. But when healthy oils are "hydrogenated" or made into solids, the processing results in the addition of unhealthy trans fats. The harder the fat (think stick margarine), the more trans fats as compared to soft spreads.
Select margarines with the lowest amount of trans and saturated fats for a cholesterol-free spread or enjoy a small portion of butter. Always aim to use the least amount of fat, preferably a poly or monounsaturated oil and when it comes to spreads, use it sparingly. Options like whipped butter or yogurt based spreads offer great alternatives.

Lunch/Dinner in the 'Hood (YYC)
- l
- Lainey1978 Sep 9, 2009 02:49 PM
Hello again,
I live in the 'hood (well, close--West Dover), and I'm looking for decent food nearby. I figure there must be good stuff on International Avenue, right? But then I've heard some bad stuff about the restaurants in the area, too (like service at the Ibex is supposed to be terrible, and I was horrified to learn that the East Gate has a long rap sheet with the Food Inspection Agency (or whatever they're called in Calgary)). But sometimes I just want something good, maybe a little out of the ordinary, and nearby.
There's a little bar within walking distance from my house called Oliver Green's (used to be Perry's Point of View), which has surprisingly good food. Unfortunately he got rid of his wonderful-sounding Mediterranean menu, but he still has a lot of good stuff. But what about the rest of West Dover? Dover? Forest Lawn? Forest Heights? Marlborough? I turn to you guys and gals because I figure if anyone will know, you will. Thanks!
Well my fav's are as follows:
Clay Oven (behind Sunridge Mall)
Southern Spice (in taradale)
Atlas Pizza (on memorial and madigan drive)
There is a cute mexican place on international (right next to the gas station) where i buy take out tamales but they have sit down too!
The Meditarianian Bakery on the corner of 17 ave and 52 street has great pita's and baklava for take out snacks.
Those are the places I visit when I am in the hood!
re: CookieGal
What is the Clay Oven? Is that Indian? Behind Sunridge...where? I think I've seen it but I can't place it in my head.
What is Southern Spice? That sounds kinda neat...
I tried to go to Atlas Pizza but it was closed when I went! I'm determined to try it sometime!
Do you know what the Mexican place (which gas station?) and Mediterranean Bakery is called?
Thanks for your help!
re: Lainey1978
Clay Oven us indian yes, just of 32nd behind an RV dealership I believe in the same parking lot as cakeland.
Sothern Spice is South Indian and they have AMAZING DOSA! mmmmm
I think DubDee is right about the mex place!
re: CookieGal
Cakeworks maybe? Clay Oven: 349-3132 26 Street NE - just off 32nd Av, coming from Deerfoot you'd go East on 32nd, turn right onto 26th street which is just past the Husky (can't miss their big Canadian flag) then left into the strip mall parking lot.
re: maplesugar
spot on!
re: CookieGal
Haven't been to Clay Oven myself but I have been a Cakeworks client til recently - not that there's anything wrong with their work just trying to DIY these days (it'd be nice to learn a few tricks of their trade for sure).
re: CookieGal
Yep, I think you're (both) right. El Bombazo. Not Bombasa. I was so sure the sign said Bombasa! LOL Perhaps I've lost the ability to read...*sigh*
re: Lainey1978
Thanks Lainey,
Actually saw a review in the Sun today. Gonna check it out htis weekend.
I work in the 'hood so I should be able to help a bit.
-I really like La Casa Latina on 17th Ave SE. You must try the pork and cheese pupusas. Yum!
-Tiffin Roti House is good for fast food indian. They have a buffet which is really tasty but sometimes not very spicy.
- Short Pants Plaza (28th Street SE & 2nd (?) Avenue) has some great finds with Safari Grille for North African/Indian (they have a great lunch special w/1 meat curry, 1 veg curry, tandori chicken, naan & rice for under $10), Lloyds Jamaican Patties (mostly takeout though they have one small table), Village Pita for good chicken shwarma and stellar meat pies (be sure to add hot sauce and lemon juice!).
- Pita Basket on Sunridge Way (I think...near Best Buy) has GREAT chicken shwarma. Very juicy and tasty!
- Forbidden City in the same shopping center as T&T Market in Marlborough has really good dim sum every day for lunch. No carts, though, just order off the menu. The tea place in the T&T market has very good milk tea with bubbles too.
Hmm....all I can think of for now. As you can see, I LOVE to eat out & have done some exploring in the area.
re: Merry113
Canada Dosa Corner does the best South Indian (and Sri Lankan) I've had here. It's at 1715-52ndSt SE (just north of 17th Ave).
Ate there a few days ago with several friends. One is from Chennai, another from Mangalore, two have lived in S India and the others have travelled there, so we all had probably unreasonable expectations.
We were absolutely stuffed on dosa, vada and stringhoppers. Stuffed and kept eating anyhow. All freshly made and perfectly delicious (heat-lamped vada can't hold a candle to fresh-from-the-fryer vada). Total was like $65, which is probably too cheap (keep in mind there were six adults and a toddler. I'm actually afraid the proprieter will run herself out of business at this rate). The halwa that came after was nice - not too sweet - and there was always a full pot of tea on the table.
Canada Dosa Corner gets instant placement on our frequent rotation (The Chennai-ite and Mangalorian have been there twice this week already).
re: mandersen
Yes, I've seen that place--it's where Lemon Tree used to be. I have now recovered from that loss (and the loss of Food In East) because someone on here recommended New Dynasty to me.
I know nothing whatsoever about South Indian and Sri Lankan food, so I wasn't sure what to make of it. I'm going to have to look into it. What are stringhoppers?
re: worldwidestuff
OMG - Las Tortillas is amazing! I have never eaten tacos there but I buy .lbs of corn tortillas often! TOTALLY WORTH THE TRIP!
re: CookieGal
Oh my gosh, thank you guys all so much! This is great! Marlborough Drive, huh? Is that the place next to where Food In East used to be (*sniffles in memoriam*)? I'm blanking on where Marlborough Drive is, which is embarrassing because I used to live in Marlborough!
Merry113, I wanted to try La Casa Latina on the weekend, but it was closed! I was very sad.
Has anyone tried Barrio Fiesta, on the corner of Memorial and 68th(I think)?
Cookiegal, can you give more detail on where to find the Mexican place by the gas station where you get tamales? Because if I can find it, I think that's dinner tonight.
re: Lainey1978
Off the top of my head, it sounds like CookieGal is talking about El Bombazo (2881 17 Avenue SE) but I could be wrong.
For Vietnamese food in the 'hood I head to Pho Dau Bo (4909 17 Ave SE). I have never been disappointed.
re: DeeDub
No, you're right! I found it today! I think it's El Bombasa, though, not that that makes a huge difference. Unfortunately they only have corn tamales on weekdays (chicken on weekends), and I wanted something more substantial for dinner so I ended up buying fish at the grocery store. But I definitely want to go there to eat sometime!
Thanks for the Vietnamese suggestion!
re: Lainey1978
Las Tortillas is right by Food In East. Definitely yummy...can't believe I left it off my list!
re: Merry113
Food In East is no more *cries*. But I will have to check out Las Tortillas one of these days, too.
re: Lainey1978
203, 4904-17th Ave SE,
Sign up for a International Ave Food tour. It'll open your eyes. http://www.internationalavenue.ca/wor...
Pho Dau Bo (Vietnamese)
Mimo's (Portuguese)
La Casa Latina (Mexican)
Gunthers Bakery (German influenced)
A Tasty Menu (Gluten Free but still great dishes)
Tong Ky BBQ (Chinese takeaway BBQ)
Are some of my favs all on 17th Ave. Urbanspoon has a longer list of places to try out too: http://www.urbanspoon.com/n/15/1401/C...
re: slingshotz
Sadly I believe that "A Tasty Menu" has closed.
re: slingshotz
Oh, these are great lists! Thank you! I notice that a lof of the ones listed on Urban Spoon don't exist anymore, though. Sad, because some of them were really good, and others sounded great but I think they're gone now.
re: Lainey1978
I'm putting together a list of places in this area on yelp if you want to check it out. I think most of them have been mentioned but it has all the addresses.
re: Lainey1978
I am late to this! I can't believe that noone has recomended "Fassil" for Ethopian! Definately my favourite restaurant on International Ave. - 3608 17th Ave. Near the ATB.
I think it made top 2 or 3 of John Gilchrist "Best New Restaurant" in.... 2007?
re: ladybugs65
Ahhh... Had to go tonight after the above post! So, so good.
re: ladybugs65
I definitely want to try this place. The issue is that I've heard it's quite slow and I usually go at lunch.
re: Merry113
It is slow... I would not go unless you had time to wait.
re: ladybugs65
Thanks! I saw that place as we were driving by, and wondered about it. What's it like inside? Is it sitdown or takeout? I have no idea what Ethiopian food is like...
re: Lainey1978
It is a sitdown restaurant but I have gotten take out many times.
Ethopian food is served on a kind of large pancake-like bread called injera.
You use the injera to pick up the food (no utensils)... it is a great dining exerience.
I guess you could loosely compare Ethopian to "Indian" but it is retty unique.
I am in West Dover as well. I am suprised you enjoyed Oliver (Olivier's?) Green. It looks so dingy... maybe I need to check it out....
re: ladybugs65
The last time I went (after I posted about Oliver(? I don't know either) Green's), it wasn't as good. I was disappointed. So maybe it's starting to go downhill now. It's still not as bad as when it was Perry's, though.
re: Lainey1978
Thanks Lainey,
There was areview in the Sun today. Gonna check it out this weekend!
Just tried a new one over the holidays:
Baba Ka Dhaba - 3504 17 Ave SE
It is a Pakisani restaruant - lots of familiar "Indian" dishes.
It is definately more of a take-out than sit down (only 3 tables and maybe 10-12 seats) and the dining area is not very clean looking - hopefully the kitchen is in better shape.
The menu changes daily and the food was DELICIOUS.
We ordered lots to try to sample as much as possible:
Tandoori fish, an okra dish, a dal, shish kabob (2), and two huge naan.
The total was $32.00 (the fish was $12.00) and we had enough left for lunch for the following day.
We enjoyed this very much and will be back for take-out often.
re: ladybugs65
Thanks for the tip!
re: ladybugs65
I like this place too, and they have paya and haleem, but I never seem to be there on the day they have them.
Tried another - Desert Pita and Grill on 52nd Street and 18th Ave. - 1830 52 Street S.E.
It is more of a "fast food" restaurant. Nice and clean and lots of tables to sit at. We had a falafel pita and an eggplant pita. Both were excellent.
I am looking forward to going back to try some Shawarma, Tabouli, Fatoush, Baba Ganouj, hummus, stuffed grape leaves... yum.Some of my favourite food!
The wraps were $6.50 each... no sides but a pretty good size for lunch. We were starving when we went in and satisfied when we left.
re: ladybugs65
based on the recommendations of friends, i tried the chicken schwarma there and was very disappointed. i don't think there was ANY seasoning on the chicken whatsoever. bland, bland, bland!
re: nonlinear
If you're going behind sunridge mall. there's a place called Quatara I think. it's in the strip mall beside the theatre with laptop depot. They say they're Babylonian so swarma, falafal etc. best sit down I've had and they do take away.
I have not made it yet but read the Mexican place a few doors down from the CIBC on 17th and 36st is good. I'm hoping to scope it out.
re: The Gut
Ah, Babylon Quitara! I was going to do a search on that here and see if anyone said anything about it. I'll have to try it sometime.
As for the Mexican place, you HAVE to be talking about La Dona! Whenever I've been there, it's been sooo good! They said they're changing their menu, though, which makes me a little nervous. They do have the ability to make great food, for sure. It may have been me you read raving about it. *grins*
re: Lainey1978
Could be, have you tried LasTortillas? I'd like to hear some comparisons.
I know it was Cali-Mex but it hurt when "Chico's Tacate' Grill" went under.
As for the Babylon place, it's spectacular in my opinion.
We do love A&A even though it's greasy and the small is almost too large for one person trying to eat a healthy portioned meal. Babylon is the first place we've agreed is good enough that we don't feel cheated by the regular person sized portions while wishing we were eating A&A.
re: The Gut
No, I haven't tried Las Tortillas yet. They're always closed when I want to go! I really, really want to try them, though!
Meh, I didn't like Chico's Tecate Grill at all. Maybe I just ordered the wrong thing, I don't know, but I found it boring.
Is the Babylon place just donairs and stuff like that? I'm curious about it, as well. If only I had decided to try all the restaurants in my area BEFORE I decided I needed to lose weight, lol!
I don't know what or where A&A is, although I've seen people on here mention it.
I used to like Kimmy's Donair in Inglewood, but I swear I saw a cockroach there once...but now it's gone so I don't have to worry about that anymore. I do wonder about that one sign he had up, though...you were supposed to get $100 (or something like that) if you answered it correctly. It said, "Where do people in Hell tell people to go?" I don't know why that came to mind...
re: Lainey1978
A&A is a convenience store on 20th ave near 14th street N.W. pretty much straight north of SAIT. They sell donairs and chicken swarma. Often I have regretted getting a swarma elsewhere because they are really good and kind of giant. I used to be able to eat the Large but my metabolism changed or something. They are not a rediculas as they used to be but a small is pretty much a meal for me now.
I used to get the tacos at chico's and loved the steak ones. I liked them better than Las Tortillas but that's not because they were not good. I just liked chico's for some reason.
Babylon does donair and shwarma but they have a bunch of platters and salads too. Roast potatoes and rice dishes. I really should go back soon.
re: The Gut
Area residents refer to A&A, simply as 'Jimmy's'. I think it's official name is Jimmy's A&A Deli. Great food. Outside seating in the summer.
re: TSAW
Jimmy's is a quintessential Calgary food stop!
There is nothing that comes close to what they do there.... But not at all close to Dover. When I have any friends in town I always make sure they squeeze in a trip to Jimmy's... I guess there are many locations now, do they all put out the same great experience?
re: CookieGal
You owe it to yourself to check out that Quatara babylon restaraunt CookieGal. It's the only other place I can go so far for chicken shwarma with out regretting not getting A&A (Jimmy's). I live closer to Jimmy and nearly every where I have had swarma from I either thought, "This is ok but it's too small, expensive and not A&A." or quite often we couldn't even enojoy it because we like A&A so much more. I need to try Swarma Knights my bud insists they are just as good. I love me some "swarma station" and "uncle Mo's" but can''t even order the chicken because I'd much rather have Jimmy's.
Quatara is right near sunridge spectrum it's slightly different and of course not as huge but just as good as A&A. in our opinion with added variaty. Also if you have a request they will make it. If you don't agree at least you'll know but I think you'll love it too.
Jimmy's mediterainian on 4th street between 14th and 13th ave S.W. It's kind of near the Rose and Crown, and the Sony Store. There's a big prairie wind mill with metal crows on the corner out front. The Food's the same but parking is tough. Similar experience giant + delicious wise.
re: The Gut
I think Jimmy's is the place right around the corner from my friend's house. I'll have to go there when I go visit her sometime!
I tried Babylon Qithara for lunch yesterday. I had the donair platter (chicken), and my husband had the platter with 3 kinds of kabobs. It was pretty good! The potatoes on my platter were excellent. I would like to try something with falafels and eggplant, but I've never had a good experience with those foods yet, so I'm a bit nervous to try it unless they come with something I know I'll like (like chicken!).
I went to La Dona again yesterday, too, for dinner. So, sooo good! Please, if you haven't tried it, do!!! They are awesome! They're usually not busy at all, and I'm so scared that they won't make it because people judge them by their appearance or don't see the place (it's under the "4 Seas" Chinese restaurant sign).
re: The Gut
I liked chico's as well, but the greatest thing about chico's was their salsa bar. darn, i miss that salsa bar...
re: marcopolo
Agreed, I've never even seen roasted pasilla before or since.
re: Lainey1978
Tried Babylon Quitara yesterday and really enjoyed it. It has counter & sit down service. I got the eggplant and falafel platter and she got the eggplant and lamb turnover (I think). Both were really good. The fried eggplant on my platter was some of the best I have ever tasted. The falafel was just okay and not the standout at all. Her dish was really tasty as well. We'll definitely be back!

I'm awake, I'm alive….
I've not been posting because I've not had updates, and I've been taking (or trying to take) a break from so much internet time.
I also haven't had much to say that would go on here….. most of it goes in my private journals as it pertains to my ex and other non-chronically ill things…
However, here's a picture of Mischief and I from yesterday. He and Johnny have been keeping me as sane as is possible.
duessa replied to your photo: I also have pink hair now. Unfortunately this dye…
Use Punky. It smells super good and it's completely a veggie dye.
Will keep that in mind for the future…. for now, I'm using what a friend was awesome enough to give to me. And not meaning my comments there about it as complaints, because, it was free, and given out of the kindness of one's heart, just trying to warn people.
I also have pink hair now.
Unfortunately this dye is not as chemically safe as the others, as I found out when I smelled a ton of chemicals vs. Manic Panic which barely had any smell at all, though it was a bit perfumey…
I used Raw for the pink btw…
Just a warning for my chemically sensitive friends.
I'm still alive and around….
Med reactions and migraines and things, but I'm alive… I just haven't had an update to post and haven't wanted to reblog as much as I used to.

Topics: Health Costs, Medicaid, Politics, States
Feb 22, 2011
Media outlets report on various Medicaid developments in states across the country.
Kaiser Health News: States Pushing Managed Long-Term Care For Elderly And Disabled Medicaid PatientsKaiser Health News staff writer Phil Galewitz, in collaboration with USA Today, reports: "Desperate to rein in rising Medicaid costs, Tennessee last year became the sixth state to require its frailest and costliest patients — the elderly and disabled who need long-term care — to enroll in managed care plans. At least 10 other states, including Florida, Maryland, New Jersey and Rhode Island, are considering introducing or expanding the use of managed long-term care. The trend is sparking opposition from the nursing home industry and raising some concerns from AARP and other patient advocates" (Galewitz, 2/22).
The Dallas Morning News: Conservative Group Urges Medicaid Shift To Market-Based Plans Texas should shift many of its 3.3 million Medicaid recipients into private health insurance to avert a fiscal meltdown, a conservative group is urging. Medicaid recipients who are not disabled should be given subsidies to buy private plans, and the state should ask to be freed from federal rules setting minimum coverage levels, the Texas Public Policy Foundation says in a report scheduled for release Tuesday. The arrangement would let people in the state-federal program "make their own decisions," and all but the most abject of the poor should be forced to use some of their own money so they become more aware of health care's cost, the foundation urged (Garrett, 2/21).

Quote: 'Chariots of the Gods' which was apparently a sensation in its time.
It was. I was surprised how many people read it and took it seriously. There was also Velikovsky, with "Worlds in Collision".
A more useful (heavy) read would be A History of God by Karen Armstrong.
Wiki backgrounder at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_History_of_God
Review at http://frimmin.com/books/historyofgod.php
There is a pdf copy of A History of God here http://images.hitungmundur.multiply.multiplycontent.com/attachment/0/Sch8EAoKCEA...
( I don't know how legal that copy is)
Quote: By the way, if you are proposing that the upright trees were caught in a single cataclysmic event, would not the trees be embedded in a single 40-foot sediment and not multiple layers?
The point they are trying to make is that the these upright trees are NOT found in a single sediment layer, but pass through several. The idea that these separate layers each took millions of years to be deposited seems a bit difficult to comprehend when a single trunk passes through all of them. The proposal that there was a flood would mean debris would be washed back and forth, and so it would be much easier to bury several layers in a short space of time, if a trunk or trunks were trapped in an upright position then those layers would build up around it. I do believe the sand particles in such layers are quite sharp, which would again mean rapid movement as millions of years of wave motion would render those particles smooth.
If debris were washed back and forwards by a single event it would not leave distinct layers in 40 days because the silt first put down would not have accreted enough to resist the turbulence.
So just because you do not understand the process for the multiple layyers does not mean a single event is the answer - you just need to read more and understand it better.
Quote: The idea that these separate layers each took millions of years to be deposited seems a bit difficult to comprehend when a single trunk passes through all of them
True, but not all rock layers took millions of years to be deposited. Some of these trees are found within layers comprising of rock formed from a series explosive volcanic events, but most of these trees grew in coastal planes where various processes resulted in relatively rapid layering, see here. The trees buried within layers of volcanic origin could not possibly have been caused by a flood and radiometric dating shows these volcanic layers to be millions of years old, and whatever AiG says about radiometric dating is a desperate lie that they get away with because most people can't grasp the science behind it.
Quote: I wonder if anyone on here has read the Bible from start to finish?
I have it in ebook form and started to read it on my Kindle..................... but I didn't get beyond the "begats".
I skipped the begats when last read the Bible. I didn't make it all the wy throught the Old Testament though. I got bored towards the end. One day I shall attempt the New Testament.
Adam and Eve begat Cain and Abel. Where did their wives come from???
When you say very close..
OBG! (Oh Billlee's God!)
Surely you're not talking about a henious and ungodly act that only some kinda sick, twisted m-----f----- would indulge in??
Yep.This site gets into all sorts of logistical knots trying to explain it
And don't forget about when Noah and his family survived the flood.
I'm starting to wonder if begat isn't some sort of euphemism...

I woke up this morning exhausted after a restless night involving being mauled by a lion, so it didn't start well. When I got up, I walked towards the bathroom, passing my hamsters' cage. I didn't make it to the bathroom. Lying on her back in the sawdust was one of my hamsters, Juju. She wasn't moving, and I knew straight away that she'd passed away. I knew, but I didn't believe. I didn't want to believe.
I have—or should I say had—two hamsters, Yuki and Juju. I bought them last March to celebrate being asked to stay permanently at my first 'real' job, at which point they were already about 6 weeks old. They were sisters, both albino, but they were nothing alike. While Juju was curious, active and receptive to being picked up, Yuki was difficult from the beginning, with a knack for drawing blood and hiding away. That's why I call her my hampire, especially with her bright red eyes. If I'd have given it thought before, I would have guessed that Yuki would go first, as she didn't get a lot of exercise or seem that interested in food. Juju was always running, exploring and the first to get to a newly refilled bowl.
So it was with dismay and some denial that I watched Juju start to get thinner and more frail. Her fur started thinning, and she was frequently scratching. I knew they were both getting older, but it seemed so strange that two sisters could age at different rates.
I did what I could. I made sure there was fresh food, including bits of cucumber and other nutritious treats. I made sure the cage was cleaned weekly and lots of bedding was put down to keep them warm as the weather got colder. I even got some tea tree oil cream from the pet shop to see if that helped with Juju's itching.
Juju seemed worse than usual last night, and I wonder if she could sense her time was up. In the past, if I've made any noises or opened the cage, she'd at least peek her little twitchy nose out from wherever she was sleeping. As I said earlier, if I put any new food in the cage, she'd come scurrying at high speed. Last night, she didn't make an appearance, even when I put some dried banana chips (her favourite) outside her cave. It was only when I slightly lifted up the cave that she came out a little. Flan had earlier had to actually reach in under the cave to get her to rub some cream on her skin, and he'd said her breathing sounded papery.
I was terrified, and I made up my mind to call the vet first thing in the morning. I didn't want my poor baby suffering if there was something more I could do, medication to give her. I think that's what made it so much harder this morning. I'd committed to taking her to the vet, and then it was too late.
I couldn't go to work. It took me over an hour to work up the courage to get her out of the cage, and then it was only with Flan's motorcycle glove and a lot of paper towel to carefully wrap her in (with paper bedding to pad around her legs, which were stiff with rigor mortis). I then put her in a biodegradable bin bag and put her to the side. I couldn't handle the next stage: what to do with her body. I don't have a proper garden; the small yard is covered in stone tiles and gravel. After lunch, tired and numb, I finally decided to go to the nearest garden centre, where I picked up an outdoor pot, soil and some plants. Despite not being one for gardening and plants in general, I found burying her under pretty flowers to be very therapeutic. I avoided it for hours, but I was glad once I'd finally finished the task.
Now I know some people might say, "She was just a hamster." I know because I've been told this. I realise losing a hamster is not quite like losing a human friend or family member, or even like losing a dog you've had for many years. Juju was only about 20 months old, but that was plenty of time for me to form an attachment to a small, fluffy creature that depended on me for her wellbeing. I don't appreciate having my grief belittled by people who think I'm silly for caring about an insignificant animal. I loved my hamster, one of the many beautiful creatures on this planet, and I'm entitled to feel her loss even if she doesn't have the brain size of a human.
Rest in peace, my sweet, cuddly ball of fur.

I have to do a short series dedicated to the drinks at DBA BBQ in Virginia Highlands, Atlanta, featuring the most unique Southern cocktail menu I've seen yet. The food and decor are equally as wonderful, but you know that's not what gets me going. DBA has a moonshine list including some more traditional shines, and flavors as well. There are also house made wine coolers, and muscadine wine. Check out the cocktail menu for yourself!

Italy on a Motorcycle / Bike Riding in Italy II
Italy motorcycle Tour: From Rome
Rome - You can spend a few days in Rome: enjoy your night riding downtown and take excursions to the outskirts of the city to places like Frascati and I castelli Romani, or Cerveteri towards the north if you are interested in antique culture (Etruscan). During the warm weather you can also have a great day trip to the Parco Nazionale in Abruzzo. From Rome you should move toward Tuscany where more or less anyplace that you go you will find good riding (take the Cassia or if you prefer the sea route, the Aurelia, and ride North), stay in Florence, Siena or in many of the smaller antique towns that Tuscany has to offer like Pienza or San Gimignano…
After Tuscany you can move toward Umbria and the hundreds of medieval towns that Umbria has to offer. Umbria: If the weather is good you will have a great ride more or less wherever you go. From Umbria you can go back to Rome and then head toward the stupendous Amalfi coast.
A variation: If the weather is warm but not hot and you feel like taking a swim you can always head toward Ischia and go to S. Angelo where warm natural springs (like the ones at Aphrodite Apollon) will allow you to swim much earlier during the season. Depending on the time you have available and your taste, you could always visit Pompei etc… Avoid stopping in Naples and leaving a loaded bike on the street - most probably you will have no need to unload it yourself.
If you find a better combination of flights / bike rentals from Milan, there are also great rides in the lakes region and then on to the Alps beyond, Venice, the Cinque Terre, Portofino etc. These are all great itineraries.
I personally like the Green Guide (from Michelin / TCI ) for indications of what to visit in Italy. You can grab the guide and see right away which town to visit - The star system to identify attractions is quite reliable and allows you to plan your trip on the spot.
* The guide on the left is an excellent help if you are thinking of some riding itineraries - However, it is all in Italian! It is updated every year and shows 43 itineraries and Motorcycle gathering places, plus 150 scenic mountain crossings.

Having had time to digest last Wednesday's performance many sports writers and pundits are finally taking a step back from their earlier "Rooney is England's saviour" stance. Typical now is the line taken by Steven Howard in the Sun, although he would still include him in the squad.
"Drop him. Sloppy, indisciplined and no shots on target in the last three England games. Roo's going through the motions and fans know it. Even the ex-internationals who always rally to his cause when his place in the team is queried can no longer escape the conclusion that England looked a far better side when he was taken off in the second half."
For me, Wayne Rooney is England's Cantona, or Di Canio, or even Ginola. What did they all have in common? Having given them their chance and despite their undoubted talents, their national managers recognised their flaws and dropped them with the result that the national teams became more successful. In Ginola's case, Spurs and Newcastle fans are eternally grateful for his move to England. Ditto Manchester United and West Ham in the case of the other two.
With that in mind, every man and his dog is putting their squad forward for the World Cup. For what it is worth; here is mine as of today. Obviously it is subject to change depending on injuries and form etc. in the run up to the deadline.
England World Cup Squad?
Goalies: Hart, Foster, Ruddy
Defenders: Johnson, Walker, Cole, Baines, Cahill, Jagielka, Caulker
Midfielders: Gerrard, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Lampard, Milner, Carrick, Henderson
Attack: Sterling, Townsend, Sturridge, Lallana, Welbeck/Defoe, Lambert/Carroll/CrouchI find completing the strikers picks the most difficult task. I would like to take two of the same type in the target man centre forward position to give us an alternative method of play. So if Andy Carroll returns to his Newcastle best over the last two months of the season and keeps his temper under control he goes too. If he doesn't then I'd bring Peter Crouch back. He has never let England down. If Jermain Defoe hits good scoring form in the States, he's in. If not, Danny Welbeck.
Theo Walcott would go if not for injury; at least it would be between him and Andros Townsend. Jack Wilshere too. Luke Shaw, Ross Barkley and Tom Cleverly likely for next time. Rooney would have squeezed in despite his disappointing performances in previous major competitions but the return of the red mist and hacking of opponents under David Moyes has put the final tin lid on it for me. I'd like to be more confident of keeping 11 men on the pitch in Brazil. If we do lose someone to a sending off, I'd rather it was a defender trying his best to do his job.

Joe Kelly, St. Louis Cardinals
Kelly, off to a great start to the season, was pulled from yesterday's start against the Milwaukee Brewers after four innings after injuring his hamstring running out a bunt. Kelly has reportedly been diagnosed with a left hamstring strain and is headed back to St. Louis for further tests.
He is coming off an outstanding 2013 season in which he recorded a 2.69 ERA in 37 games, 15 of which were starts. This season, as the Cardinals' fifth starter, Kelly has an ERA of 0.59 through three starts, including Wednesday's.
If the injury is severe and Kelly misses any time, the Cardinals pitching depth will be tested. Fortunately for them, they are very deep in terms of arms.
Carlos Martinez could be an option, but Tyler Lyons started for Triple-A Memphis on Wednesday and is probably the more logical short-term fill-in candidate.
Martinez has been making appearances in a major league setup role and likely isn't stretched out enough to jump in the rotation right away.
If you are in a deep league, or NL-only format, I would keep an eye on the situation and consider adding Lyons if there are any whispers of a promotion in the next couple of days.
Bryce Harper, Washington Nationals
Harper has been dealing soreness in his quad since last Friday and was scratched from Wednesday's lineup before the game.
There isn't much info on the severity of the issue at this time, but it appears that the Nationals are erring on the side of cautiousness with their star outfielder.
He's likely going to be day-to-day for the time being, but it wouldn't be shocking to see him miss a few games. Get him out of your lineup for the time being.
Harper has gotten off to a decent start with a .340 BA, 1 HR and 5 RBI.
Cody Ross, Arizona Diamondbacks
The Diamondbacks are expected to activate Ross from the disabled list Friday, and when they do, they will take a pitcher off the roster rather than a position player.
The D-backs are carrying 12 position players and 13 pitchers. Ross has been out since last August, when he suffered a fractured and dislocated right hip while running to first base.
Cole Hamels, Philadelphia Phillies
Hamels will pitch Thursday in Clearwater and is expected to join the Phillies rotation next week in Los Angeles.
