Cheating
Week of October 29, 2003 In this hour, we explore Cheating . Four out of five high school students say they've cheated. More than half of medical school students say the same thing. Even The New York Times has cribbed from somebody else's paper. Is everybody doing it? Guests include Dr. Howard Gardner , professor in Cognition and Education at the Harvard Graduate School of Education and co-director of a large-scale research study called the GoodWork Project; renowned primate researcher Dr. Frans de Waal , professor of psychology at Emory University; Dr. Helen Fisher , research professor in the department of anthropology at Rutgers University and author of Anatomy of Love: A Natural History of Mating, Marriage, and Why We Stray ; and country music group , who perform the Hank Williams classic, "Your Cheatin' Heart."

They are an ancient, relatively primitive group of primates which also includessuch animals as lorises. general Characteristics of primates
http://anthro.palomar.edu/primate/prim_1.htm
Overview Ring-tailed lemurs
The o rder Primates includes humans, apes, monkeys , and prosimians. Many of them may be familiar, but it would not be surprising if you cannot immediately visualize prosimians (like the ring-tailed lemurs in the picture on the right). They are an ancient, relatively primitive group of primates which also includes such animals as lorises. How many living primate species exist today is not clear. The number varies depending on whether closely related groups are considered to be varieties of each other or distinct species. Some taxonomic splitters classify up to 350 species , while lumpers include as few as 190. Most estimates are closer to the lower end. This ambiguity may be partly resolved in the future with DNA sequencing data. Compounding the problem is the fact that e very few years new kinds of primates are found. The tropical forests of South America, Africa, and Southeast Asia may still be hiding ones that are unknown to the scientific world However, it is likely that all major groupings of primates have been discovered.

1. What is primatology?
By Lesleigh Luttrell, University of Wisconsin Unlike traditional academic disciplines, primatology is characterized by the taxon of organisms studied, not by the kinds of questions addressed. Primatologists share an interest in non-human primates, but otherwise are a highly diverse group including scientists, educators, conservationists, medical researchers and veterinarians among others. Some focus exclusively on non-human primates; while others study primates as models for human diseases, or as part of complex ecosystems. While most people who identify themselves as primatologists have post-graduate training, they come from a wide variety of fields. A recent survey of the membership of the American Society of Primatologists found anthropology, psychology, biology/zoology and veterinary science as the most common disciplines of origin. Other represented fields include anatomy, biochemistry, genetics, medical science, pharmacology, and physiology. Research interests included primate behavior, biomedical and reproduction studies, ecology and conservation and animal husbandry.

The official process of reception for the Windsor Report 2004 therefore began in February 2005 at the regular meeting of the Primates and Moderators which was inr February 20th - 26th in Northern Ireland. In order to prepare for this meeting, the Archbishop of Canterbury, in conjunction with the Primates' Standing Committee, has appointed a Reception Reference Group, under the chairmanship of the Most Revd Peter Kwong, Primate of Hong Kong, to assist the primates by monitoring the way in which the Windsor Report has been received across the Anglican Communion, and by our ecumenical partners.

    Information about the Anglican Communion The Anglican Communion The Archbishop of Canterbury The Lambeth Conference The Primates Meeting ... Further information The Anglican Communion There are an estimated 70 million members of the Anglican/Episcopal family in 38 self-governing Member Churches or Provinces in more than 160 countries. The Anglican Communion has developed in two stages. Following the first stage, which began in the 17th century in Britain, Anglicanism was later established by colonisation in places such as Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Southern Africa, and the USA. The second stage began in the late 18th century. During that era Anglican churches were planted all over the world as a result of the missionary work of the Churches in England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales, which were joined in this task by the Churches formed in the previous two centuries. Anglican/Episcopal Churches uphold and proclaim the Catholic and Apostolic faith, based on the Scriptures, interpreted in the light of tradition and reason. Following the teachings of Jesus Christ, the Churches are committed to the proclamation of the Good News of the Gospel to the whole creation. Faith and order have found expression in the Book of Common Prayer, Ordinals of the 16th and 17th centuries, and most succinctly in the 'Chicago-Lambeth Quadrilateral' which was first approved by the Lambeth Conference of 1888. This document affirms as the essential elements of faith and order in the quest for Christian unity:

    Anglicans Online Europe correspondent
    20 February 2005 The General Synod of the Church of England met this week. Among other business, it considered the Windsor Report (WR). In doing this, it ignored the questions posed to provinces by the Primates Standing Committee. Instead it considered a very short report prepared by its own House of Bishops. Attached to the latter was a somewhat longer document, containing both analysis and comment, prepared by the Chairs of two other Church of England bodies: the House's own Theological Group and the Council for Christian Unity's Faith and Order Advisory Group What did this short report say?

    A single species, Homo sapiens , is nearly worldwide in distribution. Otherwise other members of the order are found in the Americas from eastern and southern Mexico to southeastern Brazil, most of Africa, Madagascar, the southwestern part of the Arabian Peninsula, south-central and southeastern Asia, Japan and the East Indies as far as Sulawesi and Timor. Walker includes 13 Families, 71 genera and 233 species within the Order Primates. Since humans are themselves primates, the order has attracted much interest and investigation, and there are numerous views on classification, especially between the order and family levels. Simpson's (1945) scheme is followed by Walker. Family Lemuridae Family Lorisidae Family Galagonidae Family Tarsiidae Family Cebidae
