...Lots and lots of guys, in ill-striped shirts, in ill-fitting pants and with ill-considered caps on their balding heads. To combat this mass of masculinity on the nation's golf courses, a growing Las Vegas-based company called Play Golf Designs has started a fairway-beautification project.

This month Medicare chose Miami as one of 14 cities to take part in a project to reduce unnecessary hospital readmissions. And because South Florida's population is largely elderly, more local health-care reformers are urging doctors and hospitals to examine costly and often pointless treatment for dying patients. A 2008 Dartmouth study suggested that South Florida hospitals generate especially high bills for such cases...
