DISPENSARYCORNER

how about this for an ingenious

k py?

A restaurant in Moscow is taking

uqu ppch c

new customers (and possibly

increasing the chances of good

table service) by only hiring sets

f c w .

Alexei Khodorovsky, owner

of The Twin Stars Diner, said

he was looking for an edge inh hhy cp

scene in Moscow, and came up

wh h wch

1960s Russian movie Kingdom

of Crooked Mirrors in which a

schoolgirl crosses into a parallel

u h w.

However he said he had found

it somewhat of a challenge to

uh w wh f

beverage experience.

Amazingly, the concept is not

unique, with the Twins eatery

Nw Yk, w by ctwins Lisa and Debbie Ganz, also

employing the same concept.

Twins who eat there get two-for-

one deals on the drinks.

Andrew Yeates, Medical Director

of GSK Australia, said the programhas already proved successful in the

Australia.

If every person in Australia were

to recycle their inhalers for one
