    Extractions: Proposer: Diocese of Michigan Resolved, the House of Deputies concurring, that the 74th General Convention affirms the following: That our life together as a community of faith is grounded in the saving work of Jesus Christ and expressed in the principles of the Chicago-Lambeth Quadrilateral: Holy Scripture, the historic Creeds of the Church, the two dominical sacraments, and the historic episcopate. That we reaffirm Resolution A069 of the 65th General Convention (1976) that "homosexual persons are children of God who have a full and equal claim with all other persons upon the love, acceptance, and pastoral concern and care of the Church". That, in our understanding of homosexual persons, differences exist among us about how best to care pastorally for those who intend to live in monogamous, non-celibate unions; and what is, or should be, required, permitted, or prohibited by the doctrine, discipline, and worship of The Episcopal Church concerning the blessing of the same. That we reaffirm Resolution D039 of the 73rd General Convention (2000), that "We expect such relationships will be characterized by fidelity, monogamy, mutual affection and respect, careful, honest communication, and the holy love which enables those in such relationships to see in each other the image of God", and that such relationships exist throughout the church.

I thank you for the many messages of prayerful support and for the submissions we have received from different parts of the Anglican Communion. As we continue our work in your name I do not under-estimate the complexities of our tasks nor the difficulties which face the Commission. However I am greatly encouraged by the sense of common direction and purpose already evident in our work. I pay tribute to the depth of work currently being undertaken by the members of the Commission. Following preparatory work and the first full meeting of the Commission in Windsor we are at present engaged in extensive study of certain key areas which we have identified and already agreed must be addressed in our Report. These issues concern such as the nature of autonomy, the practice of communion and relationships of interdependence as they have developed in the history of the Anglican Communion, the current status of the traditional Instruments of Unity and their relationship to each other and the interpretation of authority as we have witnessed it in the life of the Anglican Communion. The conclusions of these studies will be considered by the Commission when it meets at Kanuga, North Carolina, in June.

66. EBRA (European Biomedical Research Association, EBRA Bulletin
    The Report is divided into 12 main chapters that cover the scale of experimentaluse of nonhuman primates in the EU, their general biology, general welfare  
    http://www.ebra.org/bulletin/spr07_03.html
    
    Extractions: The mandate for SCAHAW from the EU Commission was "to prepare a report on the welfare of non-human primates used for experiments taking into account the most recent scientific information. The Committee should propose how the welfare of these animals can be improved, and identify the most important issues within the EU". The background to the report is that the Directive 86/609/EEC on the protection of animals used for experimental and other scientific purposes is to be updated and that primates are of particular concern. It was not within the Committee's mandate to review the ethical issues of whether or not primates should be used in research, rather to make recommendations on how the welfare of non-human primates could be improved whenever they are used in research. The membership of the Working Party, from six EU states, comprised those with considerable practical experience in primate biology and behaviour, husbandry, veterinary medicine, research (pure and applied) and animal facility administration. In addition, the opinion of other primate experts outside the EU was taken into account. The report focuses primarily on the welfare of primates, but since poor health will result in poor welfare, brief consideration was also given to some important general animal health issues. It was noted that many laboratories are doing more than is the legal minimum at the present time. A theme running throughout the report was that, as poor welfare may affect the quality of the data collected, welfare was of scientific importance as well as promoting humane science by not causing avoidable animal suffering.

    Extractions: The House of Bishops of the Episcopal Church in the United States of America (ECUSA), meeting in General Convention in Minneapolis, confirmed the Election of Canon Gene Robinson as the next bishop of New Hampshire on Tuesday, August, 5th, 2003. The following points are issues with respect to the confirmation: The world-wide Anglican Communion is comprised of thirty-eight (38) independent Provinces. ECUSA is the first Province within the Communion to confer legitimacy on homosexual practice as an authentic form of Christian discipleship. The overwhelming majority of Anglicans across the Communion stands opposed to changes in the Church's traditional teaching and practice. This was reaffirmed at the 1998 Lambeth Conference, where it was agreed that "in view of the teaching of Scripture" the church - upholds faithfulness in marriage between a man and a woman in lifelong union, and believes that abstinence is right for those who are not called to marriage. The Bishops at Lambeth 1998 also affirmed, by a significant majority, "that there are powerful biblical and theological arguments to justify the historic Christian understanding that sexually active homosexual relationships do not represent a faithful witness in chastity and holiness for disciples of Christ."

    Extractions: IF ROBINSON CONSECRATION PROCEEDS [COMMENT: The generally negative feeling about the Primates' failure to condemn ECUSA and the Canadians who are pro-homosexual can be turned around if the orthodox will learn how to unite truth with love and reason with revelation. I.e., learn how to wage spiritual warfare. If we do not go after the "forbidden" subject, homosexual behavior, we will continue to spin wheels and look like fools. When homosexual behavior gets finally put on the table under the bright light of public examination it will be all over for the homosexualist program. But it will take some leadership with insight and backbone to do that. E. Fox.] Some Conservatives See Hopes Shortchanged News Analysis

    Extractions: This paper examines the proposed new standards for exhibiting primates at zoos and animal parks in New South Wales. It examines why the standards have been developed and looks at some interesting welfare issues which the standards attempt to address. Some of the intended benefits for the primates, the general community, the zoo-visiting public, primate exhibitors and primate welfarists are presented. Some of the difficulties encountered in preparing the standards have revealed deficiencies in published information and in the availability of information about a variety of factors that effect the welfare of primates kept for display. Examples are presented to encourage improvement in understanding of these factors. The fact that non-human primates resemble humans in many ways has contributed greatly to their popularity as exhibit animals in zoos and animal parks. People readily empathise with primates and can become deeply concerned about their welfare. There is a growing appreciation that primates are one of the more highly developed groups of animals, having special psychological and social needs. The more advanced mental characteristics of this group arguably give its members a greater potential to suffer if their needs are not met. Consequently there is considerable public interest in the welfare of exhibited primates.

    Extractions: Retiring Research Primates: A Simple Way to Success Carol Asvestas, Michelle Reininger and Mary Reininger Finding a Credible Sanctuary Several major research facilities have already been successful in placing retired research primates in credible sanctuaries. The groundwork has already been covered. Facilities wishing to retire primates should contact directors of other facilities to seek advice as to where they have already placed animals. Documents pertaining to sanctuary credibility and references are usually on file and directors and staff members normally have already made at least one site visit to the sanctuary in question. It is advisable to invite prospective sanctuary directors and their care staff to meet with directors and care staff of the research facility. This creates a good long term working relationship, allowing for continual communications between the two parties concerned. This also allows observation of the non-human primates that are to be retired. It is just as important for directors and care staff of the research facility to visit the prospective sanctuary, regardless of visits made by other facility

    Extractions: Helix Code, Inc. The Unix system, designed and constructed in the 70s by people living in a very different world from us, and it has stagnated. Unix has some good qualities, and they have taken us a long way. But the problems in Unix are becoming increasingly clear, and they are holding us back. It is time to take a good hard look at Unix, to recognize what's broken, and to fix it. In this article, I describe some of the problems that we in the free software world must face, and discuss the ways in which the GNOME project is addressing them. My recent presentation at Ottawa Linux Symposium started by stating that Unix sucked. This was a punch line that I found good to introduce the vision we have in the GNOME project to address a number of problems in Unix when it comes to code reuse, consistency and usability. This is the vision of the GNOME project and this was the subject of my talk. I was addressing the software developers in the free software community that were attending the Ottawa Linux Symposium. My talk was designed to expose a number of flaws in UNIX, and to present a concrete proposal on how some of these problems can be addressed. The idea was to issue a call to developers to help realize this vision.

    Extractions: Bush, Custer, Smeller, and Bush (1977) cautioned that the stress placed on a primate during blood collection involving restraint must be recognized as a data-influencing variable if the experimental procedure is to be considered scientifically reliable. Morton, Abbot, Barclay, Close, Ewbank, Gask, Heath, Mattic, Poole, Seamer, Southee, Thompson, Trussell, West, and Jennings (1993) recommended that it is in the interest of good science, as well as of animal welfare, to check the method of blood sampling for any physiological changes associated with restraint stress. Ferin, Carmel, Warren, Himsworth, and Frantz (1976) and Wickings and Nieschlag (1980) observed that primates are readily alarmed by restraint, and that it may be difficult to obtain stable control levels for hormones which are influenced by stress. Mason, Wool, Wherry, Pennington, Brady, and Beer (1968) and Herndon, Turner, Perachio, Blank, and Collins (1984) demonstrated that growth hormone secretion is extremely sensitive to the psychological disturbance associated with restraint, complicating the interpretation of blood sample measurements. Fuller, Hobson, Reyes, Winter, and Faiman (1984) warned that determination of basal levels of reproductive hormones presents a problem since restraint for venipuncture may introduce sufficient stress to change endocrine secretion. The authors found that ketamine does
