Embryos in Limbo as Court Deals with In Vitro Case
The Tennessee high court ruled the clinic may follow its standard procedures for unused embryos if not conflicting with the opinion. The decision traces back to a custody dispute between Stowe and ex husband Davis over 4 to 8 cell embryos. The justices upheld privacy rights and potential life while avoiding a strict person or property label, suggesting an interim category entitled to respect.

Bush outlines new global forest initiative at Earth Summit
President Bush pledges a major new initiative to protect forests and boosts bilateral forest aid by 150 million, on top of 120 million existing aid and 250 million through U.N. and multilateral programs. He calls for a global conservation budget of 2.7 billion and argues halting forest loss cuts carbon. Skeptics say the funding is too little and late, while Sen Gore praises the gesture but questions prior forest and warming accords.
