FYI: Times Of Need
• Food stamp use in this country is closing in on an all-time high. Not surprising, given the economic situation. [Washington Post]
• At the same time, food banks are having a hard time keeping shelves stocked, with increased demand and decreased donations. [USA Today]
• You thought we were done with melamine? Oh no. And this time it's hitting close to home: the FDA found traces of melamine in American-manufactured infant formula. [NYT]
• The Times suggests you take charge of the Thanksgiving meal by running it like a CEO does a company: delegate and assign tasks. [NYT]
• And because feel-good stories are hard to come by these days, we thought we'd share this one: a man in Central Florida who owns 27 Golden Corral restaurants will be feeding 20,000 people at the Salvation Army on Thanksgiving. [Orlando Sentinel]
