On the show, the host, Bill O’Reilly, asked him to respond to the notion that the United States was facing a “Muslim dilemma.” Mr. O’Reilly said, “The cold truth is that in the world today jihad, aided and abetted by some Muslim nations, is the biggest threat on the planet.”<br /><br />Mr. Williams said he concurred with Mr. O’Reilly.<br /><br />He continued: “I mean, look, Bill, I’m not a bigot. You know the kind of books I’ve written about the civil rights movement in this country. But when I get on the plane, I got to tell you, if I see people who are in Muslim garb and I think, you know, they are identifying themselves first and foremost as Muslims, I get worried. I get nervous.”<br /><br />Mr. Williams also made reference to the Pakistani immigrant who pleaded guilty this month to trying to plant a car bomb in Times Square. “He said the war with Muslims, America’s war is just beginning, first drop of blood. I don’t think there’s any way to get away from these facts,” Mr. Williams said.<br /><br />NPR said in its statement that the remarks “were inconsistent with our editorial standards and practices, and undermined his credibility as a news analyst with NPR.”<br /><br />Mr. Williams’s contributions on Fox raised eyebrows at NPR in the past. In February 2009, NPR said it had asked that he stop being identified on “The O’Reilly Factor” as a “senior correspondent for NPR,” even though that title was accurate.Shmarya gets resultshttp://www.nytimes.com/2010/10/21/business/media/21npr.htmlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21519732.post-3545239122591118082010-10-21T09:54:41.514-04:002010-10-21T09:54:41.514-04:00http://www.whec.com/news/stories/s1793934.shtml

More than $37 million in false and fraudulent claims were billed to Medicare as a result of the scheme. Medicare paid more than $22 million of those claims, according to the report.<br /><br />Yudel Cayro, owner and operator of Courtesy Medical Group, also admitted to receiving illegal kickbacks and bribes from patient recruiters and owners and operators of other Miami-area home healthcare agencies. Mr. Cayro pleaded guilty to referring approximately 344 Medicare beneficiaries to those agencies for unnecessary services, which led to more than $16 million in fraudulent billing to Medicare by home healthcare agencies, according to the report.Floridahttp://www.bizjournals.com/southflorida/stories/2010/08/30/daily16.htmlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21519732.post-78562256422488527112010-10-20T22:51:56.728-04:002010-10-20T22:51:56.728-04:00http://www.ocregister.com/articles/hepner-266839-b...http://www.ocregister.com/articles/hepner-266839-board-license.html<br /><br />A Los Angeles internist has been sentenced to 21 months in prison after pleading guilty to his involvement in a $15 million healthcare fraud scheme. He also faces the possibility of losing his medical license, according to an Orange County Register report. <br /><br />Gershon Hepner, MD, pleaded guilty to conspiring with 16 others in providing unnecessary respiratory treatments to the elderly and mentally ill. He admitted the services were later billed to Medicare and Medi-Cal. Dr. Hepner and his co-conspirators also paid kickbacks to the patients in the form of soda, candy, donuts and cigarettes. In some instances, treatment was never provided to the recruited patients. More than $400,000 was reimbursed to Dr. Hepner in Medicare funds, with one-third of the funds going toward paying kickbacks to continuously recruit more patients, according to the report.<br /><br />The California Medical Board is looking to have Dr. Hepner's license revoked. This would be the second time the physician lost his license. Records provided by the medical board show Dr. Hepner lost his license for the first time in 1995 after pleading guilty to hiring patient recruiters and submitting false claims to insurance companies, sometimes for medical services that were never rendered.Gershon Hepnerhttp://www.ocregister.com/articles/hepner-266839-board-license.htmlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21519732.post-51759495386513799452010-10-20T22:42:42.163-04:002010-10-20T22:42:42.163-04:00http://www.nypost.com/p/news/local/brooklyn/but_fa...http://www.nypost.com/p/news/local/brooklyn/but_fake_vet_limb_flam_man_SRdm9m4V2RRTY0jA7ziJxO<br /><br />Beware of this con artist.
