Clean eating is one of those trendy terms people like to throw out there—and nobody really knows what it means.
So we find ourselves asking if we can consider our meal "clean" if it has an iota of wheat, natural sweetener (another mysterious food term), or sea salt.
Nutritionist Tosco Reno, author of the Eat Clean Diet, has a simple way of defining clean eating. "Eating clean is about choosing fresh, whole foods with all of their nutrients intact," she says. That means trying to avoid processed foods, including healthy things like unsweetened almond milk (unless it's homemade), as well as foods with added processed sugar.
To prove it's not as tough or tasteless as it sounds, we rounded up these recipes. All are made with common ingredients (no need for fancy superfood powders or spices you'll never use again) and contain loads of flavor, color, and satisfaction—plus health benefits because who doesn't like those? And no, they're not all kale salad. Time to get your taste buds out of the fast-food gutter and come to the clean side!
This breakfast is like eating apple pie without the crust, so you definitely want to bookmark this page. Amaranth is a grain that has slightly more protein than quinoa does, and here it gives a naturally sweet crunch. While the blogger who created this recipe uses homemade almond milk (because she's a chef), you can simply cook the oats in water.
We love that this recipe is on a blog called Ambitious Kitchen—and that it has two ingredients. This is the kind of ambition we can get behind! Bananas and oats may be enough for you (and make surprisingly sweet breakfast cookies), but the addition of things like cacao nibs and nuts makes things more fun. Gasp: Four ingredients? Now we're cooking!
Soak buckwheat overnight to get yourself an easy grab-and-go breakfast with about 6.5 grams of protein from the groats alone. We like to top with a big dollop of nut butter for extra protein and healthy fats to keep us energized all morning, no matter how long that meeting drags on.
There has been a resurgence of the egg, and we're 100 percent behind this shift in popularity. Eggs are a great source of protein and vitamin B12, which is key for a healthy nervous system and metabolism. Turn the egg into a tortilla and top it with homemade pesto (check out our recipe), goat cheese, and greens, or try guac and salsa.
How often do you wake up and think: I could go for a hefty serving of pasta? This recipe could change all of that. Cucumber noodles are topped with berries, basil, kiwi, sesame seeds, and lime juice for a crispy, sweet morning meal. We think there's something very satisfying about twirling your breakfast and slurping it unabashedly.
Sweet potatoes and fiber-filled coconut flour make these cakes sweet enough that you don't need any syrup on top. Or go savory at breakfast and top with veggies and avocado. Either way, they're great alone or as a replacement for hash browns.
Our lunch is on a boat! (We couldn't help it.) These zucchinis are carved out and filled to the brim with nutrient-dense brown rice, lentils, herbs, nuts, and dried fruit. It's a great switch for when you're bored of bringing zoodles to work and don't know what to do with the rest of the summer squash you bought.
A little bit sweet and a little bit savory, this salad travels really well. And while we love greens and fruit, the addition of quinoa and walnuts brings the satisfaction, plus omega-3s from the nuts. If you're feeling crafty, layer everything into a mason jar for easy, pretty portability.
Minimal cooking, lots of blender time, and easy to transport: This creamy and satisfying soup is a winner. Asparagus is a good source of vitamin A, which helps to form and maintain healthy skin and teeth. Plus, you know what they say: An avocado a day keeps unhappiness at bay. OK, we say that.
We are going to do our best not to over-quinoa you, but this salad is super colorful, easy, and delicious. Here is what we love about it: It's a little spicy with the addition of jalapeños and a little sweet with the navel oranges. What more do you want in a food (or in a person for that matter)? Cooking skills needed: Boiling water, opening cans, chopping, and stirring things together. It makes a big batch, so serve some for dinner, then pack the leftovers to bring to the office since it's tasty warm or chilled.
Tahini has a hefty dose of calcium, which is one of the most important minerals in the body (it even helps you to squeeze your muscles!). Use this dressing on top of a simple salad of spicy arugula, warm shiitake mushrooms, and a hard-boiled egg. Warning: You may need some gum after eating. This drizzle has tons of garlic!
Collard wraps can sometimes leave you wanting more (literally, we're hungry an hour later), but not with these! The filling of chicken, strawberries, mango, cucumber, and avocado is great, but the real star is the sauce. Almond butter and coconut cream make it super rich, while ginger and a little chili spice it up a bit.
Though it takes a while to cook, farro, a wild cousin of wheat, is super easy to make. Topped with tomatoes, artichokes, and leeks, this Mediterranean dish travels well and will taste good hot or cold on your lunch break.
Homemade veggie burgers are way healthier than packaged ones, but they often require a grocery list filled with ingredients, or they end up soft with a consistency similar to hummus. These are neither and they're super delicious. The plantains add a hint of sweet, and there's a slight kick from chipotle powder. Extra baked plantains on the side make this a meal.
This is one of those super easy recipes for those days when you come home from work too tired to wait for a meal to simmer but your health (and perhaps budget) refuses to give in to takeout. Shred kale and Brussels sprouts, toss with a simple dressing, and then add soba noodles, which is made from buckwheat and has a nice nutty flavor.
The images of Buddha show him with a distended belly, but we are pretty sure that won't be the case with this clean-living bowl. This recipe calls for sauerkraut. Make sure you avoid the ones loaded with preservatives and stick to the varieties made with cabbage, salt, and water—or just get on the kimchi train.
We aren't embarrassed. The result of throwing a few things in a slow cooker means that dinner is ready when we get home—plus we have fewer dishes to clean up. Go ahead and buy premade salsa. Just read the ingredients list: Eating clean is all about keeping it simple. Serve this shredded chicken on top of a Mexican-inspired salad.
Admittedly, this burger recipe has a few more ingredients. However, it is worth the brief sautéing and chopping because you will be left with hearty vegan burgers. If you want to keep it simple, top with your favorite clean burger fixings. But the chickpea fries are totally worth it too.
A burrito is portable, but the best part is the insides, which is why we like bowls. This version uses cauliflower rice to cut the carbs and the bloat. Top with homemade guacamole, garbanzo beans, corn, pico de gallo, and cilantro, and you're ready to dive in!
This is one of those dinners that comes together in a matter of minutes, which is great for those days when you arrive home ready to eat your own arm. Plus, chances are the only ingredient you may need to buy is the zucchini.
This curry dish tastes rich and is filling thanks to protein-rich tofu and satisfying coconut milk. Tofu has received a bad rep as a processed food, so buy an organic brand that has three ingredients or less. Serve this easy dinner over your favorite grain or on its own.
This is a big old bowl of comfort. The crispy baked beets (save extra for snacking) contrasts with creamy polenta, and is topped with dairy-free pesto that comes together in a flash in the food processor. You'll have leftover pesto, but we don't consider that a problem.
No eggs, no dairy, and no flour means that these won't taste like your usual cupcakes—instead, they're super rich and crazy good. And just as easy to make. The hardest part is waiting for them to set in the freezer. You can find cacao butter in a health food store or online. It's rich in oleic aid, which has anti-inflammatory benefits Role of oleic acid in immune system; mechanism of action; a review. Carrillo C, Cavia Mdel M, Alonso-Torre S. Nutrición hospitalaria, 2013, Nov.;27(4):1699-5198. .
There's nothing like sweet, fresh berries in summer, and eating them non-stop (as we're known to) means you're getting fiber and anthocyanins, flavonoids that fight inflammation, cancer, and heart disease Anthocyanins: natural colorants with health-promoting properties. He J, Giusti MM. Annual review of food science and technology, 2012, Jan.;1():1941-1413. . Here a two-ingredient crust is filled with rich cashew cream and topped with the jeweled fruit for the perfect no-bake end to a cookout.
Take basic healthy ingredients like almond butter, dates, and bananas and make them into something even more appetizing than a smoothie. It may look like a lot of work, but the dough comes together in seconds, and both it and the toffee are just food processor magic. The main thing you need to remember is to chill your coconut milk overnight and you are good to go, using those spotty bananas in perhaps your favorite way.
We were skeptical of black beans in brownies too, until we tried them ourselves. Masked with cocoa powder, it is an amazing way to make sure you aren't depriving yourself of your brownie quota. Taken separately, all of the ingredients read like a nutritionist's dream. Taken together, you get brownies. Enough said.
Banana soft serve is nothing new, but we are still excited about it, especially when we add some raw almonds, cocoa powder, or cardamom on top. It's quite possibly the easiest dessert or snack ever.

The Daily Utah Chronicle • October 8, 2018 • https://dailyutahchronicle.com/2018/10/08/the-toys-that-made-us/
By Rohit Singh
What would you say if I were to ask you, "Do you love toys?" I assume your answer would depend on your age. As children, we all loved them. Toys were our everyday companions. I wouldn't be overstepping if I say that nothing witnesses a child's transition into adulthood like a toy. But somehow toys lose status for most of us once we grow up. They are reduced to plastic figures meant to entertain children. Although most adults conform to this views, there are a few who will not totally agree. For some adults, including myself, toys transcend the boundaries of age and time. Such people give a new meaning to something so often and exclusively tagged as a child's zone of interest: toy collectors.
The global toy industry earns billions of dollars annually, dominated by giants like Mattel, Bandai Namco, Lego, Hasbro and Jakks Pacific. Most don't know that a big portion of their revenue comes from selling collectibles manufactured exclusively for toy enthusiasts. Toy collection is rare hobby, but it is a ritual dedicatedly pursued by aficionados. Ask a collector and you will find that the toys have a much deeper meaning to them than just making any blind addition of plastic models to their shelves. "When people start earning money they want to buy what their mother and father threw out," said Israel "Lev" Levarek, a New York-based toy dealer and collector. "They want to buy what they remember when they were younger. That's the whole thing about nostalgia. That's the whole thing about collecting."
For everyone, toys can represent a whole set of emotions associated with our childhood. Toy collectors just extend this perception to the point that collecting them actually creates a gateway to go back to their childhood or at least important parts of it. What really defines a collection is how the collector relates to the toys he or she adds. It's not built through random purchase — instead, it's an eclectic group put together over years through persistent follow-up and careful judgment. Each addition has its own story, its own reason.
One motivation that guides these collectors is best understood using the idea of "Star Wars" — the timeless pop culture icon. The movies have been around for what seems like forever, but so have the toys. The very first Star Wars action figures were released in 1978 as part of the mail-away Star Wars Early Bird Kit. The kit contained Star Wars figures of Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, Chewbacca and R2-D2. Pull out a figure from this original series and it will be worth thousands of dollar apiece in the toy market today. Toy collectors will line up for them without a second thought. For a collector from the 1970s, such a find is unearthing a treasure, like Aladdin's lamp. That's a lofty claim, but it is true nevertheless. Any collection at its root is an expression of the collector's passion. Toys are no different.

302 Lydiard Street North, Soldiers Hill VIC 3350
Amendment to existing permit to create outdoor licensed deck. Existing permit allows: Partial demolition, alterations and additions to an existing hotel and increase in licensed (red-line) area
We found this application for you on the planning authority's website 18 days ago. It was received by them 23 days earlier.
(Source: Ballarat City Council, reference PLP/2018/528/A)
Have your say by adding your own comment.
Lorraine Huddle commented 4 days ago
Re: Planning Application PLP/2018/528/A
I wish to object to the above application on the following grounds:
The proposal will adversely impact the heritage significance of the Soldiers Hill Heritage Precinct HO170 by removing the existing authentic historic infrastructure setting of Soldiers Hill, with the fake "Fitzroy' theme proposed by the applicant with the construction of forms, structures and angular layout which is visually at odds with the regular grid pattern of the historic setting and I ask that the permit be refused.
Particularly relevant parts of the Statement of Significance include:
"The Soldiers Hill Precinct is aesthetically significant at a LOCAL level (AHC criteria D.2, E.1). …
Through this process of consolidation and infill over the past 120 years, the urban fabric has been extended on the same pattern (a rectangular grid )as the first mid 19th century layout and the harmony of the overall townscape has been retained
Furthermore, the visual qualities of the Precinct are specially enhanced by the substantial integrity of the original engineering infrastructure, particularly as identified by the extensive network of bluestone spoon or channel drains, and bluestone inverted channel gutters with bluestone pitcher kerbs, and by the wrought iron drain guards. "
"(f) the place's importance in demonstrating a high degree of creative or technical achievement at a particular period. The substantial integrity of the original engineering infrastructure, particularly as identified by the extensive network of bluestone drains is of importance for demonstrating the modern concepts of urban planning based on new order, hygiene and services. The use of bluestone pitchers as the principal material to form this type of engineering infrastructure also demonstrates an early, and now rarely used construction technology and the excellence of traditional craftsmanship.
The substantial integrity of the original engineering infrastructure shows an early and now rarely used construction technology and the excellence of traditional craftsmanship. This is displayed in the extensive network of bluestone spoon or channel drains and bluestone inverted gutters with bluestone pitcher kerbs and wrought iron guards."
The Setting : The previous application described the development of the site into the new 'Fitzroy'. Soldiers Hill should not ever be given a fake setting from a Melbourne suburb, because Soldiers Hill has its own significant history, fabric and setting which represents an extremely significant period of Ballarat's history and story. Fake Fitzroy should never be permitted in this historic precinct. The existing historic infrastructure is the appropriate setting for the two storey North Star Hotel which is a key building at the 'gateway' to the precinct and at this busy intersection which has important historic buildings on four corners. A house, a former shop, the hotel and the Victorian Railway Institute.
The infrastructure is also important and is protected. It is noted that some of it has been altered to control traffic by way of a roundabout, pedestrian safety islands and nibs ( all for safety reasons and in the public interest) but it is noted that where possible the works, especially the nibs were deliberately designed to not only retain the historic bluestone gutters but to allow them to be visible and operational. Therefore the gutters should not now be covered up by a private owner wanting to use the public space with no consideration about the negative impact of concealing views of the gutters. I am aware that there are times that historic street spoon drains/gutters are retained but covered up near intersections - but this compromise is for safety reasons which is for the public good, whereas the proposed works in this permit are for the benefit of a private owner and it should not be permitted.
Maintaining and enhancing the setting of this building and the setting of all the historic places visually connected to it is important and the community expect Council to protect the setting which is identified in the Statement of Significance of this precinct. Furthermore,'setting' is an important defined term in the Burra Charter 2013.
If this historic infrastructure is covered up it will set a precedent to incrementally remove the historic street setting of the historic buildings in Soldiers Hill precinct. It is acknowledged that in Lydiard St North, the bluestone gutters were removed, concrete kerb and channel installed and the asphalt footpaths widened, but this occurred many years before the heritage overlay was applied and it is the reason why the historic infrastructure is specifically noted in the Statement of Significance. It is easy to compare the difference between the current view of Lydiard St North infrastructure with those streets which still have the protected historic bluestone gutters, gravel verges with mature exotic street trees such as Seymour St, Armstrong St and Neil St nearby. It is also noted that the Seymour street view of the hotel is the only one which still has historic infrastructure outside it, because it has been removed from the Lydiard St North side.
Lydiard St North infrastructure is simply standard late twentieth century design, which can be found in suburbs of that era, all over Victoria, and it is at odds with the historic buildings and fences in Lydiard St North. The inappropriate infrastructure replacement in Lydiard St North does not justify removing or concealing more of the historic infrastructure, on the contrary, it makes the remaining historic infrastructure all the more important and valuable.
The application does not provide enough information to fully assess the impact on the heritage values and I reserve the right to expand on my reasons for objecting to this proposal, especially as further information is required to fully understand the proposal.
Why is the historic bluestone guttering to be covered up when it is identified as important heritage infrastructure fabric in HO170 which is located on public land in the public domain ?
No explanation has been provided to justify the angular design of the proposed decking when the Statement of Significance clearly notes that various development has occurred over 120 years which is of its time, but it fits in with the grid pattern and hence maintains the "harmony of the overall townscape".
What justification is there in this application for a private owner to cover and use the public land on which the historic infrastructure is located ?
There are no drawings to show how the bluestone gutter is to be covered, the manner in which a covering will be fixed to the ground and what the materials are?
No information has been provided about advertising and branding.
Support by Council for this proposal would ignore the conclusions drawn in the City of Ballarat's recent publication "My_Suburb"_in Our People Culture Place_2017-2030. A plan to sustain Ballarat's heritage 2017-2030."
"OUR COMMUNITIES TOLD US THAT THEY LOVE our suburbs' history and heritage, parks, open spaces, old buildings, lakes, playgrounds, greenery, wide streets, beautiful gardens, streetscapes with their bluestone channels, wide streets, gravel shoulders and old established trees, landscape and views,
COB - Our Commitment. Planning scheme 15.03-1S 26/10/2018 VC155
Heritage conservation Objective
Provide for the conservation and enhancement of those places that are of aesthetic, archaeological, architectural, cultural, scientific or social significance.
Encourage appropriate development that respects places with identified heritage values. Retain those elements that contribute to the importance of the heritage place.
Encourage the conservation and restoration of contributory elements of a heritage place. Ensure an appropriate setting and context for heritage places is maintained or enhanced. Support adaptive reuse of heritage buildings where their use has become redundant.
Yours sincerely Lorraine Huddle July 2019
Angela Kenner commented 3 days ago
From a logical point of view, their application is not a good enough reason to alter the original and vitally useful drainage system out the front of the old Seymours building.
If the new owners want to use the area for alfresco dining they can still achieve this with the pavement the way it is now as there is adequate & safe usable space now so altering the original storm water plumbing is not necessary and in fact would cause major water flooding issues when Ballarat receives the heavy rain storms that Ballarat is famous for as the drains do what drains should do which is remove water that would instead pool on the sidewalk and wash into the front on the building.
The new owners may be too new to the area to understand the necessity of these drains just the way they are and are too concerned with their perceived authetics than what is useful and safe for the community.
For the best interests of the community please do not approve this proposal.

Join our e-newsletter now and be the first to learn about flights on sale, new locations and travel deals. I personally like to use the Web to buy and compare airline journey deals. Listed below are among the main airports which may be served in the event you ebook a Southwest Airline low cost flight. The nice thing about moving into contact with the airline company for an inexpensive airline ticket is you can convert the journey into air miles which can be used at a later date!
Please word that the Web Check-in for myAustrian Holidays flights opens 24 hours before your scheduled departure time. Chances are high, flights departing from or arriving in New York's La Guardia Airport is a little more costly than flights departing from or arriving within the airport in Newark, New Jersey, which is sort of close to, considering you may get stuck in visitors leaving or getting to La Guardia.
With a view to get the best and cheap airfares airline ticket one ought to plan to purchase airline ticket a number of months before the departure dates. Volaris Airways, along with competing begin up airline, Interjet, are anticipated to quickly reshape the Mexican airline business beginning this yr. There are a number of airline loyalty packages available that permit you to earn frequent flyer points for flying with a selected service or buying goods or companies from its affiliated partners.
Airways faced with last-minute cancellations will worth their tickets to sell versus having those seats go empty and the airline not making any cash on them. Flights that land or depart from essential airports are literally extra pricey than flights that depart or arrive in minor neighboring airports. It is because the airways maintain juggling with the prices primarily based on the seats offered and unsold on specific date or flights.
An airline has many expenses, many staff and requires a lot coordination for secure and environment friendly operation but one of the main requirements is gasoline for the airplane. Its June 1984 system timetable encompassed Boston, Ft. Lauderdale, Hartford, Islip, Kansas City, Las Vegas, Little Rock, Los Angeles, Miami, New Orleans, New York-JFK, Oklahoma City, Orlando, St. Petersburg, San Diego, Tulsa, and West Palm Seaside.


The final day of our second tour celebrating the launch of new Esso Synergy fuels, with the theme 'Speed Lives Here', as we take the Cayman GT4 via the old TVR factory, Coventry Transport Museum and the Gaydon Heritage Centre.
After crossing over the mainland England the night before from the Isle of Man, our first stop is a look at the old TVR factory in Blackpool. We're then back on the road heading south towards the second port of call, the Coventry Transport Museum and a look at their Jaguar exhibit. Next it's back on the road to the Gaydon Heritage Centre for a quick look before it closes over winter for a rebranding to the British Motor Museum.
Sadly then it's continuing home and then end of a truly brilliant tour, using a fantastic car, that's really captured the theme, 'Speed Lives Here'.

The University of Otago is New Zealand's first University and is where the academic study of religion has its deepest roots in New Zealand. Founded in 1869, the University's beautiful heritage buildings are complemented by first-class modern facilities including the St David's Lecture Theatre complex where the Congress will meet. All congress venues are located within a small area on the banks of the River Leith, with many pleasant spaces for delegates to meet during the conference.
The St David's Lecture Theatres are a pleasant fifteen or twenty minute walk from the Octagon in central Dunedin. A shuttle bus from the Octagon will operate for one hour each morning and evening. More details will be made available nearer the time. A taxi from the Octagon to the University would cost around NZ$11-15.

Truckin' In Style
Cosmic Charlie was born in the musical Mecca of Athens, Georgia. From its summer 1999 inception, the band has been swiftly cementing its reputation as a band that puts a unique and personal twist on the Grateful Dead catalog...
… A Dead cover band for folks that are ambivalent about Dead cover bands. Rather than mimicking the Dead exactly, Cosmic Charlie chooses to tap into the Dead's energy and style as a foundation on which to build. The result is a healthy balance of creativity and tradition, and both the band and its audience are taken to that familiar edge with the sense that, music is actually being MADE here tonight.
Moving and shaking even the most skeptical of Deadheads, Cosmic Charlie storms into a town and plays with an energy that eludes other bands, an energy that sometimes eluded the Dead themselves. Those precious moments during Dead jams when the synchronicity is there and all is right with the world, are moments that Cosmic Charlie relishes and feverishly welcomes with open arms. Clearly, Cosmic Charlie's audiences are also eager to arrive at those moments, and together with the band, they have indulged in many memorable evenings.
Cosmic Charlie has performed over 800 shows at theaters, clubs, and festivals across the continental USA. From Oregon to Colorado to Ohio to the Carolinas, Cosmic Charlie's unique take on the Dead has garnered the attention of luminaries from the Grateful Dead extended family. Some who have joined Cosmic Charlie on stage include:
– Grateful Dead keyboardist Vince Welnick
– Grateful Dead keyboardist Tom Constanten
– Ratdog & Other Ones guitarist Mark Karan
– Grateful Dead archivist/radio guru David Gans
– Ratdog bass player Robin Sylvester
It has been a great honor for the band to connect musically with these talented players who are have played such a central part in the Dead world.
One More Saturday Night
Members of Cosmic Charlie are a versatile bunch, having collaborated with the likes of Widespread Panic, Robert Fripp, Indigo Girls, Ween, Jimmy Herring, River Phoenix, Juliana Hatfield, and Vic Chesnutt, to name a few. Originating as a "one-night-only" Jerry Garcia birthday tribute (performing under the moniker 'One More Saturday Night'), word spread quickly that this was no ordinary musical confluence. Gigs started knocking at the door, high profile ones no less. Headlining the two-day, ten band Jerry Jam extravaganza at Variety Playhouse in Atlanta. Promoter Jeff Dunham quickly booked Cosmic Charlie to headline both days within hours of hearing a live recording of Cosmic Charlie playing Scarlet Begonias > Fire On The Mountain. The 3-day Jomeokee Jamboree in Winston-Salem, NC, featuring String Cheese Incident, Widespread Panic, P- Funk, and more. Promoter Jay Stephens booked Cosmic Charlie to close out all 3 nights with two sets of high energy Grateful Dead. Jay had never even seen Cosmic Charlie but booked the band on the strength of rave reviews he had heard about the band's Asheville NC shows. The band began to regularly headline top venues in the Southeast, including Variety Playhouse (Atlanta GA), Georgia Theatre (Athens GA), Visulite Theatre (Charlotte NC), Lincoln Theatre (Raleigh NC), and The Orange Peel (Asheville NC). In 2004 the band expanded it's reach with a cross-country tour that saw the band featured on Main Stage of the Oregon Country Fair in Veneta OR (the site of several legendary Grateful Dead shows). As other Dead bands have come and gone, Cosmic Charlie has cemented its status as the best known and longest running Dead tribute in the Southeast. Numerous challenges – van breakdowns, club fires, huge falling oak trees – could not sideline the band from its mission of bringing live DEAD music to the people. In July 2021, Cosmic Charlie celebrated 22 years of touring, and in August, the band started chipping away at the next 20 years. The long strange trip continues!

Tremors is a book of earthquake haiku written in response to the 17 October 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake that killed at least sixty people in the San Francisco area. At the time, I lived in Foster City, California, about halfway between San Francisco and San Jose. When the quake struck at 5:04 p.m., I was at work on the second story of a four-story office building in Foster City. Ceiling tiles were falling down among us as we rushed to door jambs to protect ourselves. Several window panes shattered.
The lights flashed and went out. A couple of computer monitors crashed to the floor, as did several bookcases and other unsecured items. My most profound memory of that moment, though, was the earthquake's sound. It was an extremely deep vibrato—not a rumble like thunder, but a massive and precise "fizz" that seemed to come from everywhere all at once, both above and below you—even inside you.
to just a few inches between massive slabs of concrete. On the roads still open, we drove well below the speed limit for months, pausing and then rushing to cross under overpasses. The Bay Bridge was closed, so extra traffic lines were marked across the San Mateo Bridge to allow traffic to drive on the shoulders. The rubble of collapsed buildings lingered for months in some places. Halloween decorations were still up in condemned buildings more than six months later (very odd to see ghosts and pumpkins still up in April). Within a year, photograph books that commemorated the event began to appear, but even several years later some buildings and freeways were still not rebuilt. The Loma Prieta earthquake, obviously, was a life-changing experience, but not one I would wish on anyone.
Several of the following selections from my chapbook Tremors were first published in Frogpond 13:1, February 1990, in After Shock (San Francisco: Two Autumns Press, 1990), and in Mirrors 3:1, Winter 1990. The book includes eighteen haiku in two sequences (one of which is "The Last Leaf"), followed by "Holes in the Awning," a two-page haibun with four haiku. I dedicated the book to the victims of the earthquake—the kind of tragedy for which you can never be fully prepared. For a few additional photographs of the earthquake, visit the Merced Sun-Star site and the San Francisco Chronicle SFGate site.
The following brief review was first published in Frogpond 14:1, Spring 1991, page 41.
Tremors offers a quite different mood [from my book The Haijin's Tweed Coat, with which it was also reviewed] addressing, as it does, the Loma Prieta quake of October 17, 1989. One wishes that the last page of this book had been the first. It is a dedication to the victims of that quake; it would have honored them more arrestingly had we read that first, not last. Those of us 3,000 miles from the site of that quake are apt not to really understand how frightening, and lethal for at least fifty victims, it was. This little book makes us aware of the realities of quakes and aftershocks, aftershocks of the souls of human beings as well as in the earth. Particularly poignant is "another victim— / laying the body bag / on the flower bed." How timely, in this sad time of body bags arriving from the Iraqi conflict. A haibun, "holes in the awning," makes up the last portion of the book. It addresses time a year after the Loma Prieta quake when another small quake wakes the writer. "A healthy fear has come to stay." The memory of the more serious quake is evoked as we follow the writer through several weeks; everything serves to remind him of the previous year's tremors. But, after all, the haibun ends on a positive note: "Today we live with what we lost. We live with what we gained." Even death and destruction offer gain, if we but seek it. Two fine books from an interesting writer.

SA on 21-day lockdown as country braces for more Covid-19 cases
23 March 2020 - 20:09 By Zingisa Mvumvu
President Cyril Ramaphosa announced on March 23 2020 that the country will be going into lockdown for 21 days. The lockdown is expected to start on midnight March 26 2020 and end on 16 April 2020.
South Africa will go into lockdown for three weeks from midnight on Thursday.
President Cyril Ramaphosa said on Monday night that the National Command Council on the coronavirus said this was a necessary step to contain the spread of the global pandemic.
South Africans would have to "stay at home" until midnight on April 16.
"This is a decisive measure to save the lives of South Africans from infection and save the lives of hundreds of thousands of our people. While these measures will have a considerable impact on people's livelihoods, on the life of our society and on our economy, the human cost of delaying this action would be far, far greater," said the president.
"The nationwide lockdown will be enacted in terms of the Disaster Management Act, and will entail the following: from midnight on Thursday March 26 until midnight on Thursday April 16, all South Africans will have to stay at home."
Ramaphosa said essential services personnel would be the only ones exempted, including police, healthcare workers and those involved in the supply of goods, including food.
"We must do everything in our means to delay the spread of infection over a long period. It is essential that every person should adhere strictly to the regulations and measures we are announcing," said Ramaphosa.
"The next few days are crucial. Without decisive action, the number of infected people will increase."
He was addressing the nation on the government's interventions to prevent the spread of the coronavirus in the country.
Earlier on Monday, health minister Dr Zweli Mkhize said that the number of confirmed Covid-19 cases had risen to 402.
Ramaphosa admitted that the lockdown would hurt.
"The action we are taking now will have lasting economic costs. But we are convinced that the cost of not acting now will be much greater. We will prioritise the lives and the livelihoods of our people, `above all else. We'll use all of the measures that are within our power to protect our people from the economic consequences of this pandemic," he said.
"In the days, weeks and months ahead, our resolve, our resourcefulness and our unity as a nation are going to be put to the test as never before. I call on all of us, one and all, to play our part in our role as South Africans - to be courageous, to be patient and, above all, to show solidarity and compassion to one another.
"Let us never despair, despite the challenges that our country is facing now. For we are a nation of one, and we are surely going to prevail."
During his address, Ramaphosa announced that the Rupert and Oppenheimer families had pledged R1bn each towards the fight against Covid-19 in SA.
The president further announced the setting up of a solidarity fund, to which all businesses and private individuals were urged to donate. The fund, said Ramaphosa, will account fully for every cent donated and publish statements on its website.
"The fund will complement what we are doing in the public sector. It will be chaired by Ms Gloria Serobe," said Ramaphosa. "Anyone can begin to deposit funds into this account acting in solidarity with South Africans. It will fully account for every cent contributed and publish details on its website."
He lauded the Ruperts and Oppenheimers for their donation.
"We must applaud the commitment that has been made ... to support victims affected by the coronavirus," he said.
