She works with the Eccles Community Art Center’s Art To Go Outreach Program that takes original art into local Elementary schools, and also cochaired the 2005 Ogden Arts Festival. Meri DeCaria (Ogden) chooses to work in a whimsical manner. “Her work may even appear frivolous (with her use of brightly colored surfaces) but after a moments notice, the viewer may see the topsy-turvy life presented on the canvas.” Roberta Glidden (Ogden) is well-known locally and nationally for her hand-painted silk scarves. She is now exploring drawing and the paint media of watercolors and oil. She has been studying with local aitist Doug Braithwaite. “All my life I have witnessed the Western landscape as a hiker and skier. Trying to depict the land and to express my response to it, my love for this planet, has been my most important mission as an artist. I will spend the rest of my life at this heady task.” Roberta concludes. Judith B. Jones (Pleasant View) indicates, “My paintings and drawings express my interest in line and color. I am fascinated by the rhythm and descriptive qualities of line, and I love the emotional impact of color. Randi Lile (Salt Lake City) states, “I have always had an innate drive to create, and enjoy being an artist with the freedom and privilege to fulfill this daily need. I work in a variety of media, though clay is at the top of my list.

Her field studies often form the basis for larger studio paintings.” She continues, “For me f nature is an of western life.

I am interested in creating movement, rhythms, and textures on my pottery that reflect my natural surroundings.

Recently, she has been drawn to painting abstracts, and creating collages. Her first love is watercolor, but she is now using other media and incorporates unusual items into her collages. Marilyn Read (Centerville) explains, “My art expresses personal experiences through the visual language of symbols. Within vibrant, stylized landscapes, figures emerge who are magical, mythological, culturally diverse or all three. am influenced by folk art which is simultaneously decorative and playful, yet it has the potential for deeper, mystical meaning.” Stephanie Saint-Thomas’ (Salt Lake City) paintings, mirrors, and jewelry are unique works in acrylic and lacquer.

E.coli Outbreak Confirmed— Future risks limited The eber-Morgan Health Department confirms that four people have contracted an E.coli O121:H19 infection with three of these people developing the more severe case of hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS). Based upon the findings of our investigation, we have concluded that the probable source of the contamination was iceberg lettuce prepared at the Wendy’s Gestaurant at 2500 N. 400 E. in North Ogde We “believe that people may have been exposed to the contaminated lettuce between the period of June 27 and June 30, 2006. One of the confirmed HUS cases (Case A) ate cheeseburgers with lettuce at the Wendy’s Restaurant for three consecutive days, June 27 through the 29. On June 30, Wendy’s catered a salad luncheon at the CORE Academy Conference held at Orion Junior High School in Harrisville where more than 300 attendees were potentially exposed. A second confirmed HUS case (Case B) attended this conference on Friday, June 29 2006 only, and ate the Wendy’s salad. A second attendee (Case C) of the conference was also confirmed to have an E.coli infection. Case A and Case C were both confirmed with identical genetic strains of E.coli O121:H19. The only common exposure shared by these three cases was the iceberg lettuce. The third HUS case (Case D) was determined to be a secondary transmission from a self reported infected person who attended the conference. The Weber-Morgan Health Department determined that the conference attendees represented a known exposure group. We wanted to establish the extent of illness among these attendees, and to determine if secondary cases had occurred. Through the means of a phone bank, we contacted 75% of those who attended the conference. Even though illness occurred, we w any clinically confirmed E.coli cases among the respondents. Part of our investigation included a thorough inspection of three food establishments that catered to the conference. No significant food code violations were observed. The only common food believe that the source borne contamination was one Wendy’s restaurant. Wendy’s. of this food limited to this From the time the Weber-Morgan Health Department was first notified of the initial HUS case, we quickly determined that there was no immediate or ongoing threat or risk to the public’s health. Otherwise, we would have immediately closed the restaurant in question, and alerted the public. We believe that this disease outbreak is over. The transmission of this illness is a rare event, and knowing the incubation period of 2 - 8 days and the time that has elapsed from the initial occurrence, we believe that the possibility of any additional cases is very remote.
