  Britches
But when I look at footage of Britches’ abysmal life at the hands of his vivisectors and then a few months after his rescue, my heart goes out to those who were brave enough to risk their own liberty to release him from such a squalid existence.
Britches was the name given by researchers to a stumptail macaque monkey who was born into a breeding colony at the University of California, Riverside in March 1985.
Britches was removed from the laboratory, along with 700 other animals, when he was five weeks old during a raid on April 20, 1985 by the Animal Liberation Front (ALF).

 stampkit » cecil and britches
I wanted to create a short online holiday film that combined two of my greatest passions: sock monkeys and stop-motion animation.
Over the past year or so, I’ve been tinkering with story lines and character development for two small friends – otherwise known as Cecil and Britches – who get themselves into sticky situations but always manage to muddle through.
I managed to cobble this short film together over the past few weeks.

  Vivisection: Frankenstein Lives
Britches, a five-week-old monkey, was the first primate in history to be rescued from an animal research facility.
While the primates are confined to the restraint chairs, with their heads immobilized, they are presented with varying visual stimuli, and the firing of specific brain cells is monitored.
As you might expect, macaque monkeys are not used to having devices attached to their skulls.

Neither of those things applied to Britches because immediately after birth at the University of California’s research centre at Riverside, Los Angeles, in 1985, he was removed from his mother and his eyelids were stitched together.
The vivisectors at the University of California excused their use of the monkey by saying that the daily routine of children’s lives made it too difficult to work with them.
But when I look at footage of Britches’ abysmal life at the hands of his vivisectors and then a few months after his rescue, my heart goes out to those who were brave enough to risk their own liberty to release him from such a squalid existence.

 Silver Spring monkeys - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Silver Spring monkeys were 17 monkeys kept in small wire cages inside the Institute of Behavioral Research in Silver Spring, Maryland, by Dr. Edward Taub, who was researching regeneration of severed nerves with a grant from the National Institute of Health (NIH).
Taub had cut sensory nerves in the monkeys' fingers, hands, arms, and legs in order to investigate what kind of stimulation, if any, would force the monkeys back to some level of motor functioning.
The stimulation used included persistent electric shock, prolonged physical restraint of an intact arm or leg, and withholding food.

 Chewbacca Defense - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The term Chewbacca Defense was first used in the South Park episode "Chef Aid", which premiered on October 7, 1998 as the fourteenth episode of the second season.
In the episode, Chef discovers that Alanis Morissette's hit song "Stinky Britches" is the same as a song he wrote years ago, before abandoning his musical aspirations.
In any event, he is initially representing the plaintiff record company, and is therefore seeking to persuade the jury to find Chef liable - the civil equivalent of a conviction, and not an acquittal.

To continue the monkey metaphor, many people fear that placing too much broadcasting power in the hands of corporations like Clear Channel will threaten us with a "hear no evil, speak no evil, see no evil" media which will make a mess of our democracy.
A media dictatorship could turn every radio and television network in America into a version of FOX "fair and balanced" News, for instance, broadcasting a single political party's viewpoint night and day, much in the manner of the state-owned media of the old Soviet Union.
Well, perhaps higher cable and internet fees will provide a wakeup call (after the monkey is out of the cage and it's too late to stop his shenanighans, that is).

This sequel is way too big for its britches, and if it were all as loud and ridiculous as its grab 'em and shake 'em opening sequence, it would be awful.
Their gizmos disabled by the island's magnetic field, Carmen and Juni must rely on their wits to deal with a mad geneticist (Steve Buscemi) and his creations, the aforementioned Harryhausen hommages: slinky "slizzards," (snaky necked lizards), a monkey with spider legs ("spider monkey") and a passel of pugnacious skeletons.
One of the most charming things about the film is that it delivers its family values message with considerable affection and utter conviction, even though the older Cortezes are reduced to minor supporting players — inventive Uncle Izzy's (Danny Trejo) role is little more than a cameo.

Things progress well for Guybrush for a time, but naturally chaos ensues when he accidentally proposes to Elaine Marley, governor of Melee Island, with a cursed ring that turns her into a statue of pure gold.
The sound and music do not disappoint (have they ever?) Michael Land's Monkey Island theme is as upbeat and addictive as ever, and even more amazing as sound and music on the computer has leaped forward over the past five years.
