On a lighter note.....No Doughnuts For You!

SAN FRANCISCO—Doughnuts could be a distant memory for San Francisco city workers.

They must now follow "healthy meeting" guidelines under a sweeping initiative unveiled by Mayor Gavin Newsom Thursday to encourage better eating. That means less junk food and smaller portions at staff meetings.

The mayor is also ordering all city departments to help locate vacant or unused city-owned land that could be used to grow food.

2. As long as they can eat donuts before and after meetings...

...not eating donuts during meetings shouldn't be too bad.
