in settlement construction, and a timetable for the release of dozens of
veteran Palestinian prisoners, held for attacks carried out before the start
of intermittent peace talks in 1993.In Cairo, the Arab League reiterated
Sunday that negotiations must be based on the 1967 frontier and include
a timeline, as well as the prisoner release. Without this, hopes for
success are dim, said Mohammed Sabih, a top league official for Palestinian
affairs. "It is certain that this (Israeli) government does not want a
two-state solution but wants one Jewish state and the exclusion of the
Palestinian side," he said in a statement.In Israel, Netanyahu allies ruled
out an endorsement of the 1967 lines or a slowdown in settlement
construction in the West Bank and east Jerusalem, now home to nearly
600,000 Israelis.Netanyahu emphasized the need to safeguard Israel's security
and said any agreement would have to be approved in a national
referendum. "It won't be easy. But we are entering the talks with
integrity, honesty and hope that this process is handled responsibly, seriously
and to the point," he said at the start of his weekly
Cabinet meeting.Netanyahu has repeatedly called for a resumption of talks
without what he calls Palestinian "preconditions," such as a settlement
freeze or recognition of the 1967 lines. Palestinians say the 1967 lines
were the basis for talks in the past and that they need
safeguards before entering into talks with Net
ehind
closed doors."Shaw admits any hope for changing this type ofbehavior has
to come from voters. "This is only going to change in one
of two ways. People coming out to vote and deciding who represents
them. And secondly when a groundswell of public outrage forces public officials
to impose higher ethics standards upon themselves."Illinois' history with
questionable political ethics is rich. The state practically became the
poster child for corruption during the criminal trial of former Illinois
Gov. Rod Blagojevich. Blagojevich attempted to sell off Barack Obama's coveted
U.S. Senate seat in return for hefty campaign donations referencing it in
the now infamous phone call saying, "I've got this thing and it's
f------ golden and I'm not giving it up for f------ nothing."Blagojevich
is currently serving out his 14-year sentence in federal prison in Colorado.

<p style="font-size:xx-small;">NEW YORK Two New York City political wives, forever linked by
their husbands' humiliating scandals, are taking very different roles in
their spouses' improbable political comebacks.Silda Wall Spitzer, who famously
stood by husband Eliot Spitzer in 2008 when he stepped down as
governor in a prostitution scandal, hasn't been seen in the early days
of his campaign for city comptroller, though Spitzer insists she's supportive.Huma
Abedin, who was notably absent when husband Anthony Weiner resigned his
congressional seat in 2011 after he acknowledged sending lewd Twitter photos
to women, has been a key player in his surging mayoral run.
She's appeared in his campaign launch video, raised tens of thousands of
dollars and joined him on the campaign trail.The two women, who have
no known relationship, will have little choice but to occupy the spotlight
again before Election Day -- and they may affect their husbands' chances
to regain office."When the significant other forgives you, it makes your
road back in politics that much easier," said Wendy Schiller, a political
science professor at Brown University. "If the wife goes on the campaign
trail or seems really supportive, it makes a huge difference. If she
doesn't, it may raise doubts with women."To many, Wall Spitzer's anguished
appearance at her husband's side when he admitted paying for sex with
prostitutes, is the archetype of the sad genre of wronged political wives,
so much so that it h
logical sister -- 8-year-old Suci."We absolutely need more
calves for the population as a whole; we have to produce as
many as we can as quickly as we can," said Terri Roth,
who heads the zoo's Center for Research of Endangered Wildlife. "The population
is in sharp decline and there's a lot of urgency around getting
her pregnant."Critics of captive breeding programs say they often do more
harm than good and can create animals less likely to survive in
the wild. Inbreeding increases the possibility of bad genetic combinations
for offspring."We don't like to do it, and long term, we really
don't like to do it," Roth said, adding that the siblings' parents
were genetically diverse, which is a positive for the plan. "When your
species is almost gone, you just need animals and that matters more
than genes right now -- these are two of the youngest, healthiest
animals in the population."The parents of the three rhinos born in Cincinnati
have died, but their eldest offspring, 11-year-old Andalas, was moved to
a sanctuary in Indonesia where he last year became a father after
mating with a wild-born rhino there.The first coordinated effort at captive
breeding began in the 1980s, and about half the initial 40 breeding
rhinos died without a successful pregnancy. Roth, who began working on the
rhino project in 1996, said it took years just to understand their
eating habits and needs and decades more to understand their mating patterns.
