Show Healthy oating begins at the grocers The National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute, the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases and the National Institutes of Health have combined studies to suggest that healthy eating starts with healthy food shopping. Better health, it would appear, begins with what is put in the grocery gro-cery cart. Shop for quick low-fat food items and fill kitchen cupboards with a supply of lower calorie basics, the data suggests. The combined data supports the following: Fat free or low fat milk, yogurt, cheese and cottage cheese. Light or diet margarine. Eggsegg substitutes. Sandwich breads, bagels, pita bread, English muffins. Soft corn tortillas, low fat flour tortillas. t Low fat, low sodium crackers. Plain cereal, dry or cooked. Rice, pasta. White meat chicken or turkey (remove the skin). Fish and shellfish (not battered). Beef: round, sirloin, chuck arm, loin and extra lean ground beef. Pork: leg, shoulder, tenderloin. Dry beans and peas. Fresh, frozen, canned fruits in light syrup or juice. Fresh, frozen, or no salt added canned vegetables. Low fat or nonfat salad dressings. dress-ings. Mustard and catsup. Jam, jelly or honey. Herbs and spices. Salsa. You can now see us on the Web!

Gary Dixon's company is sub-contracted to paint and develop displays to specifications within the new Field House Museum. Here Dixon works on a tree mural set against a breathtaking sky. New Field House Museum enters display building phase By Maureen Spencer Express Writer Entering the new Utah Field House of Natural History State Park Museum today is still entering a heavy construction zone, but through the dust and areas of "things in progress," it is clear to see that this new structure will become a diamond among places that teach and present the history of an eastern Utah decidedly different from what we know today. From the onset, the new Field House Museum concept was met by professionals who created a distinct vision for how visitors would be exposed to the relics, educational features and exotic displays. This no longer is a wander through "what has been dug up," and has become a conscientious exposure to chronological periods during the formation of the earth. And for the kid in us all that gets a bang out of seeing the "real stuff," there still will be plenty of displays of the creatures big and small for which eastern Utah is famous. What is of real interest at this point in time is just how modern technology and the imaginations of draftsmen, architects and artists are transforming rebar and heavy wire, house paint, swimming pool liner, blown cement, wire mesh, cinder blocks, PVC pipe, sheet rock and rock slabs-into a world of the past known only to mankind in 2004 through rocks and fossils. The talented mural painting Arizona sub-contractors of Dixon Studios, Inc., are making great headway in developing walkthrough walk-through rooms depicting eras in the geological formation of the area around Vernal in which many of the - Sat 8 a.m - 7 p.m. 2004 6:00 - 9:00 pm 145 East 100 South -to r: kVa:- V:- Museum's specimens were found. Along many walls, brilliant skies are painted with wafting clouds so real the illusion captures the imagination. imagi-nation. Life-sized trees are already painted into towering walls, and sun-drenched desert and mountain skylines give realistic depth. This week, foundation work was done for a bubbling stream to curve around one wall. Fresh cement was blown, covering the rock armitures, already transforming the scene from construction to "reality." As the long cement hose snaked through the rooms and past other specialized workers, Dixon crews manipulated the spluttering grey glop into believable geological forms-pull the hose back for one shape of bump-pull the hose closer for another effect. Detail painters would follow. Twenty years ago Gary Dixon began in the business of painting museums, zoos and aquariums with their necessary specialties in design and fabrication needs. At the time, he was working with a larger company that did the same type of work that his business and his crew are doing now in Vernal. Fabrication is a big part of Dixon Studios work. They "build" rebar armitures covered with wire netting to specifications in their fabrication shop in Tuscon, Ariz., and then ship large piles of them to a site. Each rigid, heavy duty shape has been Ti Uintah School of Music and the Arts cordially invites your presence at the Annual Silver Vta and Siknt Auction Saturday, March 20th, 2004 Performances will be from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. ot St. Paul's Episcopal Church-Porish House 226 West Main Vernal, Utah Wednesday, March 1 0, 2004 Q3 created to fit a particular architee- tural design required by the museum. muse-um. Dixon has been involved in various vari-ous parts of the country meeting display needs. Recently the company compa-ny had to build a 500.000 gallon shark tank to show the ecosystem of an wean oil rig for the Texas State Aquarium. He sees more and more museums going to educational presentations, specifically to the geology of areas and realistic natural history. Dixon says that today's requirements require-ments are not cartoonish for amusement, amuse-ment, but designed to make education educa-tion fun.

Rocks seem to be coming along fine, and a shipment of "plants" should be arriving soon. "A truck load of armitures looks a lot like a train wreck," he says. E 789-4742 " " r x |
