City Visible - On the Menu, Free Medical Care - NYTimes.com

Healthcare Model Done Right
This Doc has figured out how to get free health care to the any employee of participating restaurants.
"Under the plan, he charges each restaurant a dollar each month for every seat in the establishment and pools the money. In return, any employee from those restaurants can visit him free of charge, whether for a cut finger or the flu."

Time to step it up Docs. If you don't the Government's going to be telling you what to do.

This is more like it. I didn't see one check box to click in the entire presentation. That is to say, the technology doesn't appear to impede the patient care.

Throwback Time


2009 Suzuki Dealer Show
Suzuki took their beginner cruiser bike, the GZ250, and made it into a retro UJM style bike called the TU250X and added fuel injection. The quick specs are $3500, Top speed about 70 mph (so you can get on the freeway if you have to), around 80 mpg, and HP of about 20. For a monthly of around $60, sounds like a fun ride around town and definitely would be a fun cafe racer mod.
