SALT LAKE CITY — A Utah woman says she encountered only brief resistance to getting her driver's license photo taken while wearing a colander as a religious statement. Asia Lemmon, whose legal name appears on her driver's license as Jessica Steinhauser, says the pasta strainer represents her beliefs in the satirical Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster. Utah Driver License Division Director Nannette Rolfe says officials determined it is an established religion, so adherents are allowed to wear the headgear as long as their face is visible. — AP
