There's little chance that Lieberman could be elected Prime Minister - at best, his Yisrael Beitenu Party will place third - but he is expected to emerge as the kingmaker who will decide whether the former Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, of the hawkish Likud Party, or Tzipi Livni, the centrist Foreign Minister and leader of Kadima, will be Israel's next leader...

The labs have also cloned endangered dog breeds; last year Sooam cloned 17 endangered...
