    ACNS 3633 ENGLAND 16 OCTOBER 2003
    The Primates of the Anglican Communion and the Moderators of the United Churches, meeting together at Lambeth Palace on the 15th and 16th October, 2003 , wish to express our gratitude to the Archbishop of Canterbury , Dr Rowan Williams, for calling us together in response to recent events in the Diocese of New Westminster, Canada, and the Episcopal Church (USA), and welcoming us into his home so that we might take counsel together, and to seek to discern, in an atmosphere of common prayer and worship, the will and guidance of the Holy Spirit for the common life of the thirty-eight provinces which constitute our Communion. At a time of tension, we have struggled at great cost with the issues before us, but have also been renewed and strengthened in our Communion with one another through our worship and study of the Bible. This has led us into a deeper commitment to work together, and we affirm our pride in the Anglican inheritance of faith and order and our firm desire to remain part of a Communion, where what we hold in common is much greater than that which divides us in proclaiming Good News to the world.

    BIBLIOGRAPHY OF GENERAL WORKS IN MAMMALOGY
    This bibliography is designed to guide beginning students in mammalogy to literature in specific areas. The works included are primarily monographic and of wide coverage. It is also a work in progress; I add new works and update editions when any such come to my attention. Note: This list has been compiled by scouring through curatorial offices and the library in the Department of Mammalogy at the American Museum of Natural History. It has been updated by perusing the new main library books borrowed by curators. I note the Museum's call number or the Library of Congress number on the back of the title page; these are not always the same, and I prefer the Museum Library's number. Several titles are taken from publisher's fliers and Choice cards; the pagination is not always correct for books that are yet to be issued, and they usually end in suspiciously round numbers. To recommend inclusion of additional works or to correct listings, please notify John H. Wahlert

    Extracted from IndMED Barnabas S; Usha R; Row TNG; Barnabas J. Molecular Evolution unit, National Chemical Laboratory, Pune 411008, India General relationships of mammalian orders and evolutionary development of primates inferred from best-fit alpha-globin phylogenies Journal of Biosciences. 1987 Sep; 12(3): 165-74 ABSTRACT: A best-fit alpha-globin phylogeny was identified by means of a global minimization approach from among the topologies generated by a parsimony strategy. Zip parsimony method was used to derive a set of near-parsimonious tree. For each of these topologies, a difference matrix was computed; and the topology with the best goodness of fit with the original matrix was retained as the best tree. Based on this phylogenetic scheme interrelationships among eutherian orders and the evolutionary development of primates has been discussed.

    GENERAL CONVENTION 2003 Comments on the Pastoral Letter from the Primates
    of All member Churches of the Anglican Communion
    on the blessing of same-sex relationships
    The Primates' Meeting stated: "Because at this time we are nowhere near consensus in the Church regarding the blessing of homosexual relationships, we cannot recommend authorizing the development of new rites for such blessings." This very artfully worded statement has somehow been transformed in the minds of some (the primatial signatories of the recent critique of New Westminster, for example) into "the refusal to authorize rites for same-sex blessings," and in the minds of others an express prohibition of such rites. So it has always been with the Spin Doctors of the Church. No one was asking the Primates to make such an authorization, and they were careful to phrase their opinion in the form of a recommendation, not a prohibition. (If the statement had been more forceful it would not have been unanimously assented to, but that is just a reflection of the larger lack of consensus: some of the primates are resolutely against same-sex blessings, other are not, a few in favor. The point is they can only agree that they disagree: i.e., there is no consensus The same sort of thing may have happened in the community of Galatians whom Saint Paul was at such pains to set on the path of liberation from the Law. The Apostolic Council made its decision, but some were apparently not happy that it wasn't stricter than it actually was, and kept insisting on circumcision and other disciplines. Similar patterns can be found throughout church history. And the "standing wave" seems to persist at present, rather like annoying feedback. Some people want Anglicanism to be more authoritarian than it actually is.

    Breakout Session
    I am going to provide you with a better understanding of SPF monkeys and review some concerns about Herpes B, a zoonotic disease. Sometimes, everything breaks down because of the animal sources we use. We usually buy SPF animals from our friends and colleagues. We trust that the label depicts a true representation of what the animal has gone through in terms of testing and achieving status as an SPF animal. There are some basic virology and serology techniques, and some basic diagnostics that will assist us in assessing what kinds of animals we have, be they rats, rabbits, mice, monkeys, or whatever. For those of you unfamiliar with this disease, a monkey infected with B virus does not have to demonstrate any kind of active lesion. The monkey can have conjunctivitis, but can have perfectly healthy eyes, mucosal membranes, and not be problematic at all. We tend to disregard injuries sustained from "healthy" animals or traumatic injuries, thinking that they are certainly not a source of virus to worry about. In fact, it is a nice wet mucosal membrane, and it's good for growing virus. Sharps (metal objects, syringes, wiring, latches, etc.) are frequently found on cages, so these are all points of contact where we or the animals can sustain injuries.
