Highly Valued Virtues of Classical Ottoman Turkish Medical Ethics: A View From Past to Future
1 | 2 | Next
Nil Sari*
Table of contents
1. Introduction
Ottoman medical ethics was based on the trust of people to medical practitioner believed to be virtuous. Moral behavior expected to be observed by medical practitioner depended on virtues turned into rules as guides for action [1]. What kind of virtues might be highly effective for training one to be a virtuous physician? The four virtues, modesty, contendedness, hopefulness and fidelity were specifically noted by Ottoman physician writers as inevitable for being qualified as a virtuous physician. Several examples dealing with the subject are quoted from Ottoman medical manuscripts, and discussed with respect to contemporary medical ethics in this essay.
2. Virtues Ignored as a Result of Changing Values
Experience is as important as experimentation in gaining knowledge. Social sciences specially owe much to historical experience, both individual and social. Ignoring past experience means failure in utilizing valuable knowledge accumulated by man in history. Utilizing past experience is also important for studies on medical ethics. Patient-medical practitioner interrelation and its mutual moral elements in medical history have developed as a result of interaction in the course of time. Today great change has taken place in the field of medical ethics due to the fast development of medical knowledge and technology. Some values lost importance, while others came to be favored and new values have developed, which regressed some virtues, while fostered others [2].
Ottoman Turkish physician compilers described and suggested "what ought to be done or not", that is, proper and improper behavior in medical practice. When ethical advices (vasiyyet) in Ottoman medical manuscripts are studied, one can find a principle included in these advises guiding health practitioners to virtuous behavior. Ottoman Turkish expectations for medical morality were concentrated on the virtuous behavior of a practitioner [3]. In this study, the virtues modesty, contentedness, fidelity and hopefulness, considered to be a necessity in Ottoman Turkish patient-practitioner relationship, are quoted as ignored today.

During the last quarter of the 20th century great progress has been achieved in the field of medical ethics studies, and great effort has been paid in developing ethical principles and rules to lead decision making in the medical field. Contemporary medical ethics concentrated on solving moral dilemmas in accordance with ethical principles and rules [4]. Actions came to be prescribed for certain cases, described within the frame of specific groups of ethical conflicts. The practitioner having justified his/her action on the basis of principles and rules, a probable risk of omitting "virtuous behavior" needed for ethical patient-practitioner relationship, arose. Prefering principles and rules for guidance in developing ethical behavior for medical practitioner, the quality of practice that is "how to act" has come to be ignored. Yet, physician's behavior is perceived as a physical and literal language of the practitioner by the patient, not as ethical principles suitable for the case. Ethical principles and rules isolated from virtuous behavior patterns will speed up the regress of the values that virtues are derived from. There are some declined moral values which led to virtuous behavior in the past that played highly important role in patient-practitioner relationship. However, they are no less important today, as it may harm the patient when they are ignored. Some of the ignored virtues fostered by some values are indispensable in acting within the frame of ethical principles properly.
a. Modesty
A Physician has always been authorized and effective, having means and tools which might be useful or harmful, such as drugs and surgical instruments. It is the belief in the role of Godly power on the acts of man, though, that drove Ottoman Turkish physicians away from considering himself esteemed. Modesty was a highly valued virtue, because the duty of physician was conceived as being a caliph of the Creator, whose will was believed to realize the treatment. The Ottoman Turkish physician was expected to perceive himself as a caliph of God in the act of healing and not conceive himself as the real healer. Although the cause of disease was considered to be the imbalance in humours and it was the nature/temperament of the patient regarded as important in treatment, the belief that both illness and healing are God's will, sublimated the value of modesty. The belief that a physician was only a means and the real healer is God, the Creator, and without his generosity no cure could be achieved, fostered modesty as a valuable virtue. Many Ottoman Turkish medical writers adviced physicians not to be proud and not to over trust themselves. Physicians were perceived to be impotent like everybody, as physicians, whether able or unable, all passed away. While a physician was sublimated as a caliph of the Creator, being reminded that the real healer is Allah - God the Creator himself, pride was disapproved. Authorative behavior was not suitable for medical practitioners [5].
Several examples of the perspective, "physician assuming to have cured patient must not boast", are found in Ottoman medical literature. Within the same perspective, Nidâî, a physician of the 16th century, advices his colleagues as described in the following couplet:
"Consider what awarded to you by GodAlways keep (your) inefficiency in mind."
Nidâî describes in verse the failure of the physician assuming to have cured a patient:
"Don't say I have cured a patientThis assumption is a real lieBoth suffering and remedy is emerged by the CreatorHe does whatever he wishes; it is his, the Creator's will" [6].
According to Emir Çelebi, another physician of the 16th century, "Physician conceiving himself to be humble, should not relate the effects of treatment with his knowledge and skill. He should not conceive himself to be able; should not be proud of his art and practice; whatever may take place he must believe that God's favor will always be helpful. He must not behave proudly at the side of patient; he must even try to please and console patient." Emir Çelebi believes that a physician should also be dignified [7].
The meaning of modesty reflected other aspects of a physician's behavior, as well. Modesty was noted useful with respect to the development of medicine, as an attitude of a physician questioning himself/herself, too. For example, Abbas Vesim, a physician of the 18th century, deals with modesty with respect to a physician's consultation to his colleagues, valued as a favorable attitude in medical practice:
"Physician should travel from one country to another and should get in touch with those who were informed enough to discuss and present information about drugs and medical compositions; and should inquire and learn how drugs effect the body; should not pride with his ability; should not miss even a single word to be learned. For, facts and real knowledge are ideas and affirmations spoken by virtuous man" [8].
b. Contentedness
Justice and the right of equality in medical treatment was an important ethical norm and the value of justice fostered contentedness as a preeminent virtue expected from medical practitioners [9]. The assumption that "an ambitious physician eager to make money and own goods may drive him/her away from observing justice and truthfulness, consequently patients would not only be harmed, but trust in physician and medicine would be lost", is recorded in Ottoman Turkish medical manuscripts [10].
The developing function of the virtue of compassion by observing the virtue of contentedness can be noted in medical manuscripts, too. Perceiving a physician as compassionate meant that people trusted him as well. Şerafeddin Sabuncuoǧlu, a surgeon of the 15th century, advices not to treat illnesses difficult to operate, in aiming to gain money:
"Do not try to operate a patient hopeless to be healed. While you are regarded as virtuous, beware being perceived as vulgar, being fond of gaining money. Act so that your mercifulness will overweigh your respectability and ambition" [11].
Nidaî describes his evaluation of the expectation from a physician to "contend with the reward paid to him" in verse:
"Don't be fond of money, be satisfied with what you have a right toDo not be fond of this temporary existenceBe careful to observe your destinyBehave truthfully, so that you will not be distressed" [12].
Abbas Vesim relates that a physician must be contended with what he/she has a right to get, that is, the sum of what is spent in treatment, the drugs used and the fee mentioned. Abbas Vesim advices physicians to be "contented, not to be ambitious and zealous for making money." The following words of Abbas Vesim describe clearly the real aim and function of medical practice [13].
"The meaning of physicians being unambitious means the ambition for obtaining estates and gaining money, not willingness to cure the patient and the poor. Because, ambition for property and money lowers respect for the physician and trust for his treatment" [14].
c. Fidelity
Fidelity also being a highly valued virtue, a physician who started treating a patient was expected to continue his treatment so long as he can. A physician was expected to continue his treatment in spite of patient's improper behaviour disturbing him. It was an ethical rule for physician not to seize treatment, abandoning a patient untimely [15]. This rule was imposed as a responsibility to the physician. Abbas Vesim describes the rules of fidelity as:
"Physician must bare the misbehaviour of his patients. Physician should not retaliate his patient, even if patient behaved impolitely. Physician should ignore patient's rude acts. Physician should not react to patient's improper behaviour, on the contrary he should act within the framework of medicine and his skill, that is he should not incline to stop treatment, not feel offended, but try to continue treatment.Patience of an efficient physician is a way of treatmentPatient's function is always to cause pain" [16].
In return, the patient was expected to be responsible for experiencing the prescribed medicine and way of treatment. The patient was expected to act in accordance with the physician's advices for treatment, both for the patient's and physician's beneficence. Disregarding the physician's advices might be harmful both for physician and patient. This mutual responsibility is described by Siyahi, a physician of the 16th century:
"Some patients partly practice physician's suggestions, consequently may not be cured, for which physician is blamed. Do not commit a sin by meddling with physician's work" [17].
Figure 2: An illustration of a medical practitioner during treatment of a patient. (Source: Millet Kutuphanesi, Ali Emiri, nr. 79.).
Abbas Vesim advices physicians not to approach a patient disregarding a physician's advices, as did Siyahi. In such a situation, observance of the fidelity rule by the physician can be disregarded. In case a patient neglects to observe the physician's advices, the rule of fidelity can be ignored by the physician. Physician's right to leave a patient who doesn't observe his/her advices is defended and justified by Abbas Vesim, because, in such a case the patient may be harmed, consequently trust in the physician may be lost. If a patient hesitates to take the medicine adviced by the physician, or refuses to observe the physician's advice or speaks with the physician so as to get physician misunderstand him, the physician must end his relation with the patient. For, this is sure to cause a mistake. This approach is commented by Abbas Vesim. He writes that, if a patient distorts the physician's advice of treatment, being effected by advices of those inefficient in medicine and changes the treatment prescribed by his/her physician by the words of people who come and go; or not trusting the physician's advices based on the rules of medicine and acting on his own will, this act being against the law of medicine, mistake is inevitable. This fault is sure to be imposed upon the physician who treated the patient. For this reason, avoiding the treatment of such a patient can be justified. Otherwise, a physician's practice and advice will be comprehended/conceived as if he had not performed what he really did, and as if he had performed what he really didn't; and what he says will be conceived in the same way. In short, the patient was expected to cooperate with his/her physician and in return physician was expected not to desert his/her patient. Fidelity to a patient is in a sense derived from the importance paid to the value of hopefulness in treating a patient [18].
d. Hopefulness
Physicians were expected to treat patients honestly, but not to express outrightly neither the patient's cure certainly, nor the hopelessness of curing or of nearing death. Cases in the past were used as analogies. As it was impossible to know of the patient's destiny certainly, the duty of the physician was to try to treat the patient until death. Ibn Shareef, a physician of the 15th century, utilizing his own experience, justifies the importance of being wary in disclosing the fatality of patient to relatives:
"If a physician is asked, 'Is the patient going to die and when?', the physician must not inform the patient's relatives of his/her death; the physician must not say that the patient is going to die today or tomorrow. Not disclosing is beneficial, for we have come across many physicians who assumed that the patients treated and healed by us could not be cured and were going to die undoubtedly, they were not destined to die yet, so they recovered. We felt the pulses of many of them, it was a sign of death completely and prepared their shroud and dug their grave. However, they did not die, they recovered and got up. So, it is proper not to inform relatives and friends of a patient's death, even if the physician preconceives it. God alone knows the truth. Whatever the illness may be, the patient must be nicely treated. Perform whatever they are willing, and try to protect patients against disappointment. Patients must be kept away from sadness and anxiety whatever your way of treatment may be. Please some by motivating and by means of hopefulness and others by awarding presents. Rejoice others by having their close friends and kind hearted people visit them, so, patients will feel happy and their morale will be improved" [19].
The physician was advised not to speak to the patient with certainty about the prognosis of his/her illness. Haci Paşa, a physician of the 15th century, puts forth the rule: "It is not proper to express outrightly that the patient is certainly going to die or be healed" [20].
Abbas Vesim puts forth similar rules: "A physician should not say that a patient is sure to go on living. Beware noting a certain period about the duration of patient's illness" [21].
It was regarded an ethical rule for a physician to go on with treatment even with the hopeless patient, that is, never to give up treatment. Even if recorded in medical books that no medicine will cure an illness, it was believed that one should not seize hoping of God's mercy. A patient or a wounded could be cured miraculously, though not expected. Patients should be informed and warned of the harmful consequences of ending treatment. Some physician writers pushed this attitude even further, defending the idea that a patient must not be informed of the disappointing prognosis, thus hopefulness for treatment and the will of patient for going on to live should not be ceased. Not to grow hopeless of being cured, going on to be hopeful of the Creator's mercy and the body's potentiality of getting healed itself was highly valued [22]. Ahmed b. Bali reflects this attitude by advising physicians to "encourage patient raising his/her morale by telling him that he/she is going to recover soon"; "Do away with patient's troubles, supporting him/her willingly" [23].
The Ottoman Turkish physician practicing Hippocratic, Galenic and Islamic medicine regarded himself as an assistant of nature and its power to heal. This was the main approach to the different prognosis in observing patients treated in the same diagnosis and indication.
3. Discussion on Contemporary Medical Ethics
Contemporary medicine has developed fast along with the development in technology and physician utilizing technology shared its miraculous products. Today, the human body and its various functions are observed and noted by means of developed diagnostic methods, technological instruments and laboratory tests. As physicians got to know more and more about the secrets of human biology and depend highly on technology, he/she intervened increasingly to the human body.
Expectations from the scientific development of medicine influenced cultural and social views, too. Consequently, traditional ideas of health and life transformed, more or less, all over the world. However, as societies' moral values differ from one another, proper argument of ethical issues in the developing medical field necessitates complementary knowledge, such as patients' culture. Embodied in a particular society, each patient and family shapes and thus reflects the way he/she understands moral problems and what she/he takes to be feasible responses. Traditions and historical backgrounds of societies have to be valued to reach a better understanding of their contemporary morality.
Figure 3: View from the exhibition in Edirne History of Medicine Museum. (Source).
As quoted shortly above, Turkish medical ethics in history relied on a virtuous behaviour expected from a health practitioner. Health practitioners were required to have a virtuous character for employment in Ottoman hospitals [24]. This may be the reason why today "real informed consent from patient" is far from being practiced in Turkey, patients relying on a physician known to be virtuous and efficient. A virtuous physician is expected to protect the patient from being harmed from a medical intervention and act fairly [25]. However, paradoxically, written consent from patient before treatment has always been a requisite of law, both in Turkish history and today [26]. This subject is mainly a discussion of autonomy and paternalism.
In this article, however, I would like to discuss another point of view. Today we contemplate highly on the transformations in our moral views resulting from new medical technologies and methods of treatment and their consequences. However, we do not evaluate historical material by utilizing the hundreds of year's experience of man as a field for learning. Study of ethics in the history of medicine has the potentiality of guiding us to moral attitudes and behaviours to be benefited from. I would like to start the discussion on the importance of past experiences, accumulated and developed through an evaluation of many case consequences over a long period of time.
Although the above mentioned Ottoman Turkish moral concepts and values are those of a period when scientific medicine was not developed and theology played a great part in the attitudes and behaviours of medical practitioners, they are reflections of ethical behaviour expected to be practiced in medicine, based on hundreds of years of experience. The above mentioned values, virtues and rules of ethics depend on empirical information on morality, collected in a long period of history, which includes valuable information and subjects to be contemplated and discussed.
It is known from antique times to today that a physician has opportunity of being authoritative. In the Ottoman period, the belief that the Creator is the real healer prevented a physician's authoritative attitude. Ottoman physicians, being astonished by the medical facts unveiling the amazing secrets of nature, were inclined to react modestly [27]. Modesty as a virtue had the potentiality of preventing an Ottoman health practitioner from acting authoritatively. (Not telling the truth about a patient's nearing death was not regarded as an authoritative act, but a virtuous behaviour) [28].
Innovations by intellectuals provided higher ability for the contemporary physician. This increase of ability provided opportunity for some physicians to conceive themselves as an authority on patients. Consequences of medical technology created an amazing feeling of achievement and this caused a potentiality of overflowing self-confidence in several medical practitioners. Medical technology provides great ability, but without it a contemporary physician could have been no more successful then the physician in history. Modern physician's efficiency would decline greatly without contemporary technology and pharmaceutical products. Without the tools contemporary physicians are bound to be in a worse position than the physician practicing medicine before the era of modern technology. This is reflected today in the reactions of newly graduated Turkish physicians appointed for compulsory service, who claim that they could not practice in rural districts with insufficient technological equipment. Modern physicians are not trained enough to utilize their five senses in physical examination for diagnosis as physicians in history; and they are not good observers as those physicians of the pre-technology period. Contemporary physicians are not willing enough to observe and examine patients, being dependent on the facts reached through laboratory findings and visual techniques [29]. Modern medical professionals are also not trained to compose/prepare drugs themselves as in history, and moreover are dependent on drug firms that sometimes provide various rewards to them. All of these reasons, I think, are enough to have the contemporary medical practitioner be modest. Is the modern practitioner aware of this?
Figure 4: Süleymaniye Medical Madrasa in Istanbul. See Salim Ayduz, Suleymaniye Medical Madrasa.
I would like to discuss modesty with respect to patient autonomy. The basic aim of the virtuous Ottoman Turkish physician ought to have been a patient's beneficence. However, a physician's "modest" behaviour has the potentiality of providing opportunity for a patient's autonomous decision making, too. In order to be able to get an autonomous decision from a patient, a physician ought to provide an opportunity, behaving modest, so as not to disappoint patient. A real patient consent is a consent that would not be regretted, with a high probability, in the future. How can a patient trust a physician who does not listen to him/her carefully? I would like to relate a case I observed recently. I took an 85 years old male patient to an ophthalmologist for laser treatment. The patient told the physician that his primary physician had noted that "laser should be applied only to his right eye and the left eye should not be treated". The ophthalmologist retorted nervously, "I am not a technician, and I am not in need of suggestion and I won't practice it because of anybody's suggestion." I suggested to him, "Hear your patients speak and inform you of their trouble and let them ask the questions they want." In fact I intended to tell him to be modest and let his patients speak. Confidence in the efficiency of a physician may not suffice for a patient to inform a physician satisfactorily, or ask questions to be informed by physician sufficiently. Another example of my observation is of a female patient transferred from a hospital of social insurance to the ophthalmology clinic of a university hospital. She was a patient from the rural area and had to be operated urgently. A young female doctor turned furiously to the nurse thereby and asked why she had been transferred there and what she wanted. The patient herself standing by the physician tried to express her problem; but the physician ordered her to stop talking, saying, "Nobody asked you to speak".
I have observed that authoritative behaviour is risky in preventing a patient from informing his/her physician adequately. An authoritative physician may create oppression by the way he/she speaks and behaves. Oppressed patients will have or feel they have little control over their behaviour. A patient's attitude will be determined by the physician's behaviour –modest or arrogant, tolerant or intolerant. Patient tends to behave considering the consequences of his/her performance, that is, whether the physician would approve it or not. Patient's interpretation about what a physician thinks of a certain attitude is influenced by the physician's behaviour perceived by the patient. Presupposing what the physician expects, a patient will consider the implications of his/her attitude, before deciding to act. In interrelation with an authorative physician, a patient may be confronted with psychological inhibition and hence may conceal personal problems, as well as failing to ask questions, fearing from getting a physician angry, or being conceived by a physician as ignorant or stupid. The physician imposing that he/she is the one who knows and the patient is ignorant, so the patient will not understand the information provided by him/her may impede the behaviour of patient [30]. On the contrary, if the patient feels that the outcome of his/her behaviour, such as asking questions is to be approved, the patient will develop an attitude in order to realize it, and the way to the needed mutual cooperation, as well as the realization of patient autonomy in medical decision making will be freed. A patient who can speak and act freely will provide the physician with valuable information important for diagnosis and treatment. A physician observing patient autonomy can be perceived by the patient only from a physician's behaviours, encouraging the patient to behave autonomously. The modest practitioner behaving sincerely can motivate a patient to be willing to give information about his/her health problems, without hesitation. Behaving authoratively is an unhealthy behaviour for a physician. The physician needs not to fear loosing respectability from a patient. So long as the physician respects the patient, his own respectability will rise.
Persuasion of a patient for autonomous behaviour, such as obtaining consent for treatment, can be provided by the behaviour of the physician. Consider a too busy physician in a hurry for a patient's consent. Neither ethical rule nor regulation can secure a real informed consent, for it is dependent on the patient-physician relationship formed by the virtuous behaviour of the physician, modest and reliable as well. In order to be able to reach autonomous decisions, the patient could be able to argue related issues with his/her physician. Modesty may facilitate the physician to perceive the patient's moral values, too. A physician's modest behaviour may also help solving ethical conflicts in medical practice.

Busch has another heated exchange with reporter

09:26 AM ET 06.17 | Kurt Busch's troubles with the media continued on Saturday at Michigan International Speedway. Busch had a brief, heated exchange with ESPN reporter Marty Smith after Saturday's Nationwide Series race at MIS, a week after serving a one-week suspension for making threatening comments to Sporting News reporter Bob Pockrass after the Dover Nationwide Series race. Busch, on orders from Sprint Cup team owner James Finch, avoided talking to reporters upon arriving at MIS on Thursday. But when he finished third in the race won by Joey Logano on Saturday, he had to make a mandatory appearance in the media center. As he waited to be interviewed, an MRN Radio pit reporter said on the live broadcast that Busch left the top-five area without interviewing. Busch was told of the comment and replied, "That's what everybody says, don't they." Busch then left the room to cool off. Several reporters, including Smith, with a camera crew, followed. Busch then told Smith to come over with his camera. When Smith got there, Busch said he wasn't doing interviews there, adding, "You ever hear of sarcasm?" That led to a brief exchange during which Busch said, "You don't know how long I've been working on this."
Marty Smith is a tool. I'm not a Busch fan but they are messing with him to get a story.

That's what they're supposed to do. they know if they pick at him enough he'll explode and give them something to write about. Kurt needs to keep his cool and just say "Next question."

No doubt that these so called "reporters" are trying to do just that.
there we go, kryle blows up for the 3rd race in a row..
there we go, kryle blows up for the 3rd race in a row..
Gotta tell ya' -- there is something screwy going on here ... nobody else at Gibbs is having a problem except for numb-nuts. He must be doing something stupid -- as usual. The Gibbs Nationwide cars a making a ton of power and are built in-house ... on the other hand the Cup cars are using a TURD works motors and Bushy can't keep the insides from tryin' to get outside. IMHO Gibbs needs to tell TURD to stuff their motors and go back to building his own ...
Not a good day for Gibb's TURDs ...
all 3 took a big turd today.. expensive day i must say
C'mon Jr. Get'cha one
if it stays green hes going to win
if it stays green hes going to win
When I went to MIS I used to sit in the infield at the second turn, right before the straightaway. You could hear them floor it.

The healthcare industry in South Florida, like the rest of the country, faces huge challenges in the year ahead as major federal reforms kick in, experts told about 700 people at a University of Miami conference on Friday.
"We are at a critical time in health policy," said Mark McClellan, former head of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. "There are going to be some bumps along the way," especially starting in 11 months, when the biggest changes in the Affordable Care Act kick in.
"Bumps may be understating what we may go through," said Patrick Geraghty, chief executive of Florida Blue, the state's largest health insurer.
They spoke at the conference on the Business of Healthcare Post-Election. The speakers accepted the federal reforms — often referred to as Obamacare — as not only inevitable but necessary. As Tom Daschele, a former Democratic U.S. senator from South Dakota, put it, "having 50 million uninsured is just unacceptable."
But the reform act, signed into law in 2010, contains more than 2,000 pages, plus thousands of pages more of enabling regulations — details that will have major, and perhaps unexpected, impacts on the healthcare industry, which now makes up almost 20 percent of the nation's economy.
In October, insurance exchanges will open for enrollment — groups that will allow individuals and small businesses to purchase policies with no exclusions for pre-existing conditions. Starting next January, virtually everyone will be required to have insurance, Medicaid will expand in many states, and businesses with more than 50 full-time equivalent employees will be required to provide insurance or pay fines.
"Jan. 1 is a very significant date," said Steven Ulllmann, director of health policy programs at the UM business school. He called reforms "a process" that will change over time.
"The one thing we know is that healthcare reform will be reformed," said Chris Jennings, a Washington health policy advisor for the Clinton administration and three senators.
Karen Ignagni, president of America's Health Insurance Plans, the insurers' trade group, said she had strong ideas about tweaks that could minimize disruption. One arcane, but crucial provision of the law requires that an older person's policy can be no more than three times as expensive as a young person's.
The provision will mean huge increases in the policies of younger persons, to pay for the much higher costs of their elders. Insurers are asking for that policy to be postponed for two years, retaining the present maximum spread of about five to one, so that younger people could sign up for insurance without huge sticker shock.
For example, if a 25-year-old pays $100 and a 60-year-old pays $500, the new rule would hike the younger person's premium to $150 and cut the older person's premium to $450 — a 50 percent increase for one and a 10 percent decrease for the other.
The thinking of lawmakers was that by lowering ratio, the costs of healthcare would be spread out and shared more equally by the population.
Anne Phelps, a healthcare principal with Ernst & Young, said she favored another change in the law, which now requires that next year a company with the equivalent of 50 employees to provide insurance for anyone working more than 30 hours a week or pay a fine. She thought the threshold should be raised to 32 or 34 hours.

SOUTH BURLINGTON The School Board in South Burlington plans to continue to fight a proposed methadone clinic for heroin and prescription drug addicts near two of the citys schools.
The board decided Wednesday night to appeal the clinics permit to the Vermont Environmental Court. The Burlington Free Press reported that the legal action could delay the clinic opening for a year or more.
The move comes after the citys Development Review Board last week denied the districts appeal of a permit the city issued in August.

text: Today they have returned. For all the paths of the night have been to mourn in my bed. So many, so many! I do not know what they live, I do not know what is dead. I cry myself to mourn all. The night baby crying as a black scarf. There are golden heads in the sun like ripe ... There are heads touched by shadow and mystery, a thorn-crowned head invisible, blush rose heads of dreaming heads bent to cushion abyss heads who would rest in heaven, some that fail to smell spring and many that go beyond the flowers of winter. All those heads ache and sores ... I hurt or dead.

Libya transition
Some still seeking revenge in Libya
Groups repressed by Gadhafi regime settling old scores

Libyans release a hot-air lantern at Nasr Square in Benghazi to mark the second anniversary of the start of the uprising that toppled longtime dictator Moammar Gadhafi.
BENGHAZI, Libya — Col. Faraj el-Dersi, who defected to the rebel side from Moammar Gadhafi's police force, was gunned down late last year on the streets of Benghazi, and he bled to death in the arms of his teenage daughter.
As Libya yesterday marked the second anniversary of the start of the uprising that toppled Gadhafi, the death of el-Dersi and nearly 40 other similar slayings are seen as evidence that some in the country are too impatient for a political system that has yet to deliver justice and national reconciliation.
Suspicion in many of the killings of senior security and military officials has fallen on Islamists who were brutally suppressed under Gadhafi. Now, they have become among the most-powerful groups in the new Libya, particularly in the east, with heavily armed militias at their command.
And they are settling old scores themselves, rather than wait for transitional justice — the process of society punishing or forgiving the abuses of the old regime.
Mustafa al-Kufi, a 59-year-old former prisoner and political activist, said the various post-Gadhafi governments and the current parliament are all fearful that if they head down the path of transitional justice, many members of the ruling class would be among those punished for past wrongdoing.
"This is a very pressing issue and a core demand in the street," said al-Kufi, who spent 12 years in prison.
"We need to know who did what and then ask families of the victims for forgiveness. But since this didn't take place, violence will continue because there is no justice."
Like other Arab countries that ousted authoritarian leaders, Libya is now mired in a chaotic and violent transition to a new society. It is plagued by unruly and heavily armed militias that have come under a unified command slowly but remain filled with hard-liners who were in the front line in the war against Gadhafi.
The transition is further complicated by an autonomy movement in the oil-rich east, a central government too weak to exert its authority across the vast desert nation, and heavily armed Islamists who are pressing to fill a power vacuum.
The civil war swept Gadhafi from power, but the bitterness and rage lingers in a country where the authoritarian government imprisoned, tortured and killed its opponents.
Hana al-Gallal, a prominent Benghazi lawyer, said allowing old regime figures to be part of the new order only will fuel more violence.
"Those whose sons were killed, their dreams shattered by the Gadhafi regime, will seek revenge when they see them back in power," she said. "The result is assassinations."
Libya's parliament, the General National Congress, is debating a draft bill that would bar anyone deemed to have had ties to the former regime from state institutions for 10 years.
The bill's supporters say such measures are needed to allow the ministries and state institutions in the fledgling democracy to develop free of the toxic influence and corruption of the Gadhafi era.
For critics of the bill, however, such a ban perpetuates the Gadhafi regime's practice of excluding a large bloc of the population from political life.
If implemented, the law would bar a chunk of current lawmakers and government officials, regardless of whether they defected to the rebel side during the civil war.

Officers recognized
PRINCETON — The Princeton City Council has recognized two local police officers for their recent accomplishments.
At Monday's council meeting at Princeton City Hall, Princeton Police Chief Tom Root announced the promotion of Christopher Erickson to the position of sergeant. Erickson began his law enforcement work in 2004 as a part-time police officer for Walnut. He graduated from the Illinois Police Academy in 2005 and was hired as a full-time officer with the Princeton Police Department in 2008. Erickson has come a long way through the years, Root said.
Root also introduced and congratulated Dustin Schaill on receiving his state certificate as a fully-qualified law enforcement officer. Schaill became a part-time officer for the Princeton Police Department in January 2012 and went immediately into the basic law enforcement training program, graduating in October. He was able to do his internship with the Princeton Police Department through Illinois Valley Community College. In time, he hopes to bring Schaill onto the force full-time, Root said.

Emilio Pucci
Emilio Pucci, the man behind the iconic Pucci print, got his start in fashion rather humbly: by making clothes for the ski team at Reed College in Oregon. In 1949 a Harper's Bazaar photographer took note of Pucci's designs on the slopes, and the rest is history. The Pucci name is synonymous with wild, kaleidoscopic prints, bold color combinations, and flowing, beautifully cut fabrics. The power of Pucci's trademark sensual, madly pulsating designs is harnessed by simple shapes and perfectly placed seams. Celebrities and jet-setters adore Pucci's dresses, scarves, sunglasses, and shoes: Sophia Loren, Kylie Minogue and Madonna are loyal brand ambassadors, Jackie Kennedy was a fan, and Marilyn Monroe was buried in a favorite pale-green Pucci dress. Today the Pucci empire includes swimwear, home décor, perfume and men's accessories, providing a plethora of options for tastemakers with an eye for audacious design.
