Eating the traditional Passover foods is an essential part of the holiday, but there are ways to keep true to the heritage while adding some new excitement to your meal.

From start to finish the macaroons take less than 30 minutes, including the baking-- great cookie to make all The dried plums give these macaroons a deliciously moist and sweet flavor. In the haroset recipe, dried plums add a new twist to the traditional ingredients of apples and walnuts.

The Coalition for a Tobacco Free Utah is grateful to the Utah State Legislature for helping Kick Butts during the 2003 legislative session. The Legislature realized the importance of maintaining tobacco prevention and control program funding during the states current funding dif- ficulties, and recognize that allocating tobacco prevention and control monies, as a quick fix to compensate for budget shortfalls. Tobacco prevention and control programs are funda- mental in reducing death, disease, and costs that tobacco inflicts upon taxpayers. Yearly, tobacco kills roughly 1,218 Utahns and costs Utah approximately $273 million in tobacco related health care costs. Every dollar spent in tobacco prevention saves roughly three dollars in medical costs. Funding tobacco prevention and control programs not only saves lives, but also increases revenue for the state in the long run. Utahs statewide tobacco prevention and control programs have been successful; fewer students and adults smoke, and more smokers want to quit. The Coalition urges the continued support of funding for tobacco prevention and control in Utah, which will give Utah a fighting chance to prevent another generation from becoming addicted to tobacco. Utah State offers summer Biotech Academy for teens The Utah State University Biotechnology and Genomics Center is offering Utah and Idaho teens the opportunity to explore how scientists create lifesaving medicines, to debate the safety of genetically modified foods and to learn about the latest research in plant and animal genomics. Scheduled for July on the Utah State campus, the academy is open to high 14-1- 8 students entering the school 11th and 12th grades in the school year. Particwith ipants work faculty mentors on a variety of hands-oprojects, stay in campus housing and eat in campus dining halls during the camp. Students may select a specific area of interest, choosing from fields such as biology, chemistry, food and nutrition sciences, biological and environmental engineering, plant and soil science, and animal, dairy and veterinary sciences. Of course, its not all work and no play, said Afifa Sabir, education director for the academy. Participants enjoy a variety of outdoor recreation activities, includ- - ing volleyball, canoeing, rock climbing and a barbeque in beautiful Logan canyon. Space is limited and students are selected to participate in the academy on the basis of grade point average and an essay describing their interests of study. Funded by the Utah State Biotechnology and Genomics Research Cen- ter and corporate sponsors, participants pay a $50 tuition fee and are responsible for their own transportation to and from the program.
