Intro E-ColiReturn to index of stories... |
On Friday, top officials from the Agriculture Department will outline plans to strengthen the safety of the meat supply. This, after E. coli in hamburger meat recently caused at least 16 people to become ill in Colorado.This week, New Hampshire public health officials confirmed that two children and one eledery woman were treated for E. coli infection. It's been determined that the E. coli detected in these cases is similar to the strain of the bacteria found in Colorado beef. |
E-ColiReturn to index of stories... |
track The recall of 18-point 6 million pounds of beef was issued because of concerns that it could contain a dangerous strain of E. coli bacteria. -- sot This action is being taken as a precautionary measure to protect the public health. -- track It's the second largest recall of beef in the U-S. Beef that's being blamed for making 16 people sick in Colorado. Officials are looking at 6 other possible cases in South Dakota, Washington , Wyoming Michigan and California. And this week, the New Hampshire State Epidemiologist confirmed that three people were made ill by a similar strain of the E. Coli bacteria. Those infections are also being investigated. -- sot We have know way of knowing for sure how much product is in consumer hands. -- track The meat recall was issued across the country. The beef was processed between April 12th and July 11th by ConAgra Foods in Greely Colorado. And that beef may have been repackaged and sold to supermarkets for resale under the stores' own label. But there's still a way to tell if you've purchased the tainted meat. All the meat has the code Est. 969 within The U-S-D-A seal of inspection. |

Customers who suspect they bought the meat are being told to return it to the store where it was purchased. So what are the signs that you've eaten meat that carries the E.coli bacteria? And how can you make sure you don't get sick from eating tainted meat? New Hampshire's Epidemiologist Jesse Greenblatt explains how they knew the strain was similar to that in Colorado. |
GreenblattReturn to index of stories... |
Dr. Greenblatt says a strain of e-coli bacteria found in NH is similar to the strain in Colorado. The main symptom of e-coli infection is dysentary. He advises that you cook meat thoroughly and bring it up to a temperature of 160 degrees to be safe. |

Intro ChapelReturn to index of stories... |
Portsmouth is a bustling city - it's highly developed, and not the kind of place you'd necessarily expect to find the subject of our next story.In a quiet stand of woods in the port city, there's a unique chapel that celebrates its centennial this weekend. Richard Ager has the story. |
Seacoast ChapelReturn to index of stories... |
RAger: In the woods by Little Harbor, a small chapel has been welcoming worshippers and wedding parties for a century. The Little Harbor Chapel, built in 1902 by Arthur Carey, has always been a place for all who cared to visit. John Carey: Founder's Grandson: "Well, this was never built as a private chapel. This was built as a public place of worship. It was very much in keeping with my grandfather's philosophy. " RAger: At first, the chapel reflected Arthur Carey's membership in the Swedenborg church, which espoused the teachings of 17th century philosopher Emmanuel Swedenborg. But after leaving the Swedenborg church, Arthur Carey concluded that denominations were a divisive force and declared his chapel to be nondenominational. John Care: "Here we don't want to be pushing our particular brand of Christianity. We want to come here and just think about the teachings of Jesus and listen to what is said about that. And, uh, not try to talk other people out of what they believe in and not be thinking about how other religious are wrong because they're not like ours. Elly Russo: Little Harbor Chapel Caretaker: "It makes a small wedding look large and if you have a large wedding I tell the brides and grooms 'you've got to book another place, a larger facility because I don't like to put people out." RAger: Sometimes being in the woods means you get uninvited guests like the day a fox crashed the wedding. Elly Russo: "He got about halfway, three-quarters, turned around went right back the way he came. Didn't do a left, didn't do a right: went right outside. I said, 'Thank you, God.' But, hey, everybody's welcome. Justice of the Peace says: "Under the ordinance of God and by the state of New Hampshire, I now pronounce you husband and wife. And what God has put together, let no man put asunder. It's time for you to kiss your bride." Best Man: "I'm very pleased to present to you, Mr. and Mrs. Duane Nadeau." Mark Zatarian/Justice of the Peace: "It's a unique old chapel set in the pines. A lot of history. And if I decide to walk down the aisle, I'll be using this chapel." Richard Ager/NH Outlook: Over the past century, thousands of couples have been married here in the woods at the Little Harbor Chapel. All were attracted by its charm and simplicity, and the bride and groom on this day said the age of the chapel helped them decide. Shannan and Duane Nadeau: "Well it was made in 1902 and we're getting married in 2002 so it was 100 years old. It's meant to be. It's beautiful. It's so us, woodsy and small. Definitely beautiful, definitely. And Now that you've had the wedding, was it everything you hoped? yeah. It was great. Congratulations to both of you. Thank you very much." This small chapel is not a place for fiery oration. Rather, it is a setting for a different minister each summer weekend to connect personally with their congregation. John Carey: It's a real challenge for a minister to keep his or her audience or congregation looking up at the pulpit instead of out the window. And I remember as a young man sitting here many a time and fixing my gaze on the sky and the trees, letting my mind wander freely. RAger: For a hundred years, this little chapel has acquired a special significance in the lives of those who come here, to worship, to marry, or perhaps to just take a break. John Carey: "Well, I think it's significant as a sanctuary, a place of quiet repose. An escape from some of the less attractive things that are happening in the world today. It's a place you can return to and feel that you are getting back to what's important." For NH Outlook, I'm Richard Ager. |
