  • Pharmacy/Prescription Drug Fraud Tips for Protecting Yourself and Medicare
    Pharmacy/Prescription Drug Fraud Tips for Protecting Yourself and Medicare Pharmacy and prescription drug fraud is a consistent trend in Medicare. Due to the lucrative nature of prescription drug diversion and pharmacy scams, criminals continue to exploit Medicare Part D. What is Medicare Pharmacy/Prescription Drug Fraud? Although there are many types of prescription drug schemes, pharmacy fraud primarily occurs when Medicare is billed for a medication that was not received or a beneficiary is intentionally given a different prescription drug than prescribed. What are Examples of Pharmacy/Prescription Drug Fraud? • Billing Medicare for prescription drugs (including refills) that were never picked up, delivered, or even prescribed. • Billing Medicare for prescription drugs (occasionally controlled substances such as opioids) that were prescribed by a health care provider you have never seen. • Billing Medicare for medication amounts beyond the quantity you were prescribed. • Billing Medicare for a different prescription drug (often more expensive) than the one you were originally prescribed or issuing you a drug that is not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). • A pharmacy that intentionally provides less medication than prescribed. • A pharmacy that issues expired drugs. • A pharmacy that provides and bills for an expensive compounded medication, including topical pain creams, when a traditional or less expensive prescription was ordered by your provider. • A company offering you “free” or “discount” prescription drugs without a treating physician’s order and then billing Medicare. • A pharmacy offering gift cards or other compensation so you switch your prescriptions over to a specific pharmacy. • A pharmacy automatically refilling a prescription you no longer need.

  • Otterbourne Parish Plan
    1.0 Purpose of the Document The purpose of the document is to provide the Countryside Agency, Hampshire County Council and Winchester City Council with a perspective on how the residents of Otterbourne wish to see local issues that affect their quality of life managed over the period October 2004 to October 2009. It will give Otterbourne Parish Council, once they have formally adopted the Parish Plan, the consensus of the village and should give emphasis to the Parish Council's input to the wider future of the community. 2.0 Introduction The Government introduced a Rural White Paper - Our Countryside: the future - in November 2000 sponsored by the Countryside Agency, with the aim of encouraging local communities to take a more active role in deciding what is important to them and how each community sees itself developing over the following few years. The aim of a Parish Plan is to allow everyone in the Parish to have a chance to say what they think about the various social, economic and environmental issues affecting their community and how they would like to see it improved for the future. The proposal to prepare a Parish Plan was presented to the village at a meeting in July 2002, supported by the Countryside Agency and Winchester City Council. The meeting concluded with a request for volunteers to assist in the project. In September 2002, Otterbourne Parish Council notified the Countryside Agency of its intent to commence with the preparation of a Parish Plan. In March 2003 the inaugural meeting of the Otterbourne Parish Plan and Village Design Statement project team took place, by which time 40 volunteers had come forward to offer their assistance in a variety of roles from Project Leader to "Foot Soldiers" who were prepared to distribute letters and collect surveys.

  • John Keble's Parishes a History of Hursley and Otterbourne
    John Keble's Parishes: A History Of Hursley And Otterbourne By Charlotte M. Yonge John Keble's Parishes: A History Of Hursley And Otterbourne CHAPTER I - MERDON AND OTTERBOURNE The South Downs of England descend at about eight miles from the sea into beds of clay, diversified by gravel and sand, and with an upper deposit of peaty, boggy soil, all having been brought down by the rivers of which the Itchen and the Test remain. On the western side of the Itchen, exactly at the border where the chalk gives way to the other deposits, lies the ground of which this memoir attempts to speak. It is uneven ground, varied by undulations, with gravelly hills, rising above valleys filled with clay, and both alike favourable to the growth of woods. Fossils of belemnite, cockles (cardium), and lamp-shells (terebratula) have been found in the chalk, and numerous echini, with the pentagon star on their base, are picked up in the gravels and called by the country people Shepherds’ Crowns - or even fossil toads. Large boulder stones are also scattered about the country, exercising the minds of some observers, who saw in certain of them Druidical altars, with channels for the flow of the blood, while others discerned in these same grooves the scraping of the ice that brought them down in the Glacial age. But we must pass the time when the zoophytes were at work on our chalk, when the lamp-shells rode at anchor on shallow waves, when the cockles sat “at their doors in a rainbow frill,” and the belemnites spread their cuttlefish arms to the sea, and darkened the water for their enemies with their store of ink.

  • OV5 Iustory of R
    OV5 iUSTORY OF r StettetyA, & 'Ditfnict Aocal Society PREFACE This paper has been written with the intention of setting down basic facts in the history of Eastleigh as they are known, and of drawing attention to the vast amount of detail still needing to be discovered and recorded. The very name of Eastleigh has its history and, together with all the other place-names in our modem Borough, a long one, with variations in spelling, popularity and expanse of land indicated by the name. Research already carried out by members of the Eastleigh and District Local History Society has been published in a series of Occasional and Special Papers. Reference to these and other publications is made in the text so that more detailed information may be obtained when needed. The reader is encouraged to set himself in the right mood by making sure that he knows the history of his own patch. Who built the house? Why was it so designed? What materials were used and where did they come from? Why was the road so named? What is the nature of the garden soil and how was it composed? Find out the answers to these and other questions and, above all, remember that today’s events are tomorrow’s history. This may inspire you to seek further information or advice and, possibly, to meet others with similar aims. Local History Societies exist for this purpose; they welcome visitors and new members. The Eastleigh and District Local History Society meets on the fourth Thursday of the month, the Botley and Curdridge Society on the last Friday of the month, and the West End Society on the first Wednesday of the month, except in July and August when outside visits are usually organised.

  • Accounts of Debates in the House of Commons, March–April 1731, Supplementary to the Diary of the First Earl of Egmont
    Accounts of Debates in the House of Commons, March–April 1731, Supplementary to the Diary of the First Earl of Egmont D. W. Hayton Introduction John Perceval (1683–1748), fourth baronet, of Burton Hall, near Kanturk in County Cork, created first Baron Perceval (in 1715), first Viscount Perceval (1723) and first Earl of Egmont (1733) in the Irish peerage, sat in the British House of Commons for the government borough of Harwich in the parliament of 1727–34, and left to posterity a diary containing accounts of debates in the Commons which constitute the best source for parliamentary proceedings during the period of Sir Robert Walpole’s prime ministership.1 This was published by the Historical Manuscripts Commission in three volumes between 1905 and 1909, as appendices to its sixteenth report.2 Elsewhere in Perceval’s large personal archive in the British Library other examples survive of the diarist’s craft and some of these have been published: in 1962 Robert McPherson edited the ‘journal’ compiled by Perceval from notes, minutes and papers while he was a trustee of the Georgia Society in the 1730s;3 in 1969 Aubrey Newman printed fragments from 1749–51 and 1760, illustrating the politics of the ‘Leicester House’ faction, with which Perceval was involved;4 in 1982 the present author published excerpts relating to Irish parliamentary proceedings in 1711 and 1713 from a ‘journal of public affairs’ kept by Perceval between 1711 and 1718;5 and in 1989 Mark Wenger edited Perceval’s diary of his travels in 1701 as a young man through the eastern and northern counties of England.6 Occasional references in the Historical Manuscripts Commission volumes indicate that Perceval had compiled other accounts of events – specifically of parliamentary debates – and forwarded them in correspondence.

  • Bowling, a Pastime Long Associated with Blue-Collar Americans
    36 2 0 1 1 N UMBER 4 | E NGLISH T EACHING F ORUM by Phyllis McIntosh Art might seem to have little in common with bowling, a pastime long associated with blue-collar Americans. A bowling alley (the traditional name for a bowling establishment) is the last place one would expect to find an art gallery. But Lucky Strike, a chain of chic upscale bowling centers, proudly claims its passion for the arts. Its lanes and lounges in 22 cities nationwide are famous for their ever-changing video displays of works by dozens of emerging artists. Lucky Strike’s innovation is just one example of bowling’s dramatic transformation over the past few decades. Once a no-frills sport played mostly by lower-middle-income workers in sponsored leagues, bowling has become the centerpiece of high-tech family entertainment complexes and fancy clubs that appeal to trendy urbanites. As a result, bowling is enjoying a resurgence in popularity, especially among the young. According to the United States Bowling Congress (USBC), more than 70 million Americans bowl each year, which makes bowling one of the most popular participation sports in the United States. The Golden Age of Bowling Of all American pastimes, bowling is one of the easiest to pursue. Just show up at Bowlers are required to the neighborhood bowling center, rent the required shoes, use the balls provided, and wear shoes like these, which won’t mar the floor of the pay a reasonable fee to bowl as many games as you like. The game itself—rolling a bowling alley.
