Duchess of Cambridge is pregnant:
Kate and Wills are expecting first

with acute morning sickness

Daily Mail [UK], by Rebecca English, Mark Duell

Original Article

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are having a baby, it was announced today. Catherine, 30, was this afternoon taken to King Edward VII Hospital in central London with acute morning sickness and is expected to be kept in for several days. She was admitted only as a precautionary measure. In a statement on their website, the couple said they are ´delighted with the news´. Royal sources said the couple are happy but nervous because the pregnancy is in its very early stages and added it would not have been announced at this time had it not been for the

Apologies for posting this on the heels of one below. There were not only different headers (in fact, it´s changed again), but the first one had only "by Daily Mail Reporter" as opposed to the two reporters I searched on when looking for a duplicate.

The Mail does this every now and then, especially with a breaking story.

she has had morning sickness ever since our election. many Americans have had the same reaction without the pregnancy since then also.

The royal couple should be aware that acorn has already registered the baby to vote in Chicago.

Congrats to them! I do not envy her having to endure what may be a hard pregnancy with the press and public watching her every move. Everyone will have an opinion and people can be so cruel. People seem to think that pregnant women are fair game and that they have the right to know and comment on the most personal details. She will do it gracefully I´m sure. She´s a class act.

Yet another pillar of the austerity edifice has crumbled. As many readers will have seen, fresh research has refuted the famous Reinhart-Rogoff paper showing a cliff-edge fall in growth to minus 0.1pc once public debt reaches 90pc of GDP. This was the paper seized upon by Tea Party Republicans, scorched-earth Schaublerians and Rehnites in Europe, our own dear Chancellor George Osborne, and Austro-liquidationists the world over, to back calls for draconian, pro-cyclical, fiscal tightening. [Snip] In fact the average growth rate for the 20 developed countries in the study is plus 2.2pc. Big difference.

If Mark Sanford’s quest for redemption falls short in the 1st Congressional District race, he may well point to a stunning 24 hours as the turning point. Sanford’s promising chance at beating Democrat Elizabeth Colbert Busch in the Republican-leaning district began to fray at the edges Tuesday night when fresh details about his messy family life leaked out. More unflattering information about his personal life emerged Wednesday, followed by a decision by the National Republican Congressional Committee to back away from the former two-term governor and ex-congressman.

About 30 migrant workers have been injured in a shooting on a strawberry farm in Greece after requesting salaries that had not been paid. The migrants--mainly from Bangladesh--were shot at by at least one farm supervisor, in a Peloponnesian village in southern Greece. Several of the workers have been taken to hospital but none are in a critical condition. The owner of the farm in Nea Manolada and one foreman have been arrested. Nea Manolada, about 260km (160 miles) west of Athens, is an area where thousands of migrant workers are employed. Around 200 workers had gathered to request their

Yesterday, the most modest of gun control proposals died in the Senate. It would have expanded background checks to people purchasing weapons at gun shows and online sales, enjoyed 90 per cent support among the public and came on the back of the tragedy at Newtown. Yet, despite all that it had going for it, the Toomey-Manchin bill raised just 54 votes--six short of the number necessary for passage. “This is a pretty shameful day for Washington,” said Obama afterwards.

What was so moving, in the end, was that Baroness Thatcher was buried as a simple Christian. Borne on a gun-carriage to St Paul’s cathedral as a great warrior statesman, Margaret Hilda went as a humble human soul to meet her ultimate fate, as must we all. But what a faith she had, blazing out in those magnificent, soaring hymns and readings that she had apparently so carefully chosen.

Baroness Thatcher was today honoured with a sombre but spectacular funeral ceremony that paid tribute to the ‘courage and perseverance’ of Britain´s greatest peacetime prime minister. An estimated 250,000 mourners lined the streets to pay tribute to the UK´s one and only female political leader, and broke into spontaneous applause, cheers and whistles of support rang around the streets of London as the coffin passed them. Mourners also threw white roses in the path of the gun carriage that carried Lady Thatcher through the capital.

Immediately after the terrifying explosions at the race on Monday, photos showed soldiers dressed in fatigues running toward the site of the attack. Army Sgt. Bernard Madore and 1st Lt. Steve Fiola say they never expected to have to mobilize in response to an attack in their hometown but were ready to answer the call of duty.

President Obama angrily blamed the defeat Wednesday of his centerpiece gun-control proposal on lies spread by the National Rifle Association, calling it “a pretty shameful day for Washington.” “The gun lobby and its allies willfully lied about the bill,” Mr. Obama said in the White House rose garden about 90 minutes after the vote. “It came down to politics.” As he spoke, Mr. Obama was surrounded by family members of victims of the Newtown, Conn., school shooting. Also with him was former Rep. Gabby Giffords of Arizona, wounded in an assassination attempt.

Authorities on Tuesday revealed little new information about the terrorist attack at the Boston Marathon, the most high-profile bombing on U.S. soil in more than a decade and a tragedy that presents a new test for President Obama. Obama, like all Americans, is standing by, waiting for answers as to who planted two bombs improvised from pressure cookers at the finish line of the storied race, and why. Three Americans were killed in Monday´s attack and more than 170 others were injured. "Anytime bombs are used to target innocent civilians, it is an act of terror," Obama said,

While the media are bearing the brunt of public skepticism over the handling of the Boston bombing, the behavior of government is also eroding public trust. Yesterday´s promised but cancelled news briefing is just one symptom. Andrew McCarthy of PJM notes that "Misinformation rather than enlightenment has been the order of the day in the investigation of Monday´s terrorist bombing of the Boston Marathon," and that part of it is the natural outgrowth of the desire of investigators to keep the details of their investigations secret, so as not to alert suspects.

Mark Kelly, the astronaut husband of former congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords, on Thursday upbraided senators who voted against gun legislation by saying they voted “out of fear.” ”If that vote had been a secret ballot, I bet you it would have passed with 80 votes,” Kelly told reporters. He was referencing the compromise authored by Sens. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) and Pat Toomey (R-Pa.) to expand background checks for gun buyers. It failed to advance in the Senate, with a vote Wednesday afternoon of 54 to 46.

After all the controversy – it was too much, and too expensive; it would be marred by protests – this morning’s funeral for Lady Thatcher in London was a splendid and memorable affair, which did her memory, and her country, proud. It was a moving, dignified and pitch-perfect occasion: unmistakably British, and a fitting send-off for the country’s greatest post-war prime minister.

As we now move into the official Political Aftermath period of the Boston bombing — the period that will determine the long-term legislative fallout of the atrocity — the dynamics of privilege will undoubtedly influence the nation’s collective reaction to the attacks. That’s because privilege tends to determine: 1) which groups are — and are not — collectively denigrated or targeted for the unlawful actions of individuals; and 2) how big and politically game-changing the overall reaction ends up being.

Washington — President Barack Obama says the Senate’s opposition to a bill that would have expanded background checks for gun buyers marks a “shameful day” in Washington. He says a minority of senators decided “it wasn’t worth it” to protect the nation’s children. Obama spoke in the Rose Garden shortly after the Senate vote rejecting a bipartisan effort to expand federal background checks to more firearms buyers.

Misinformation rather than enlightenment has been the order of the day in the investigation of Monday’s terrorist bombing of the Boston Marathon. The anxiety stemming from the attack and the stream of inaccurate news about it is further freighted, moreover, by the FBI’s confirmation that two letters addressed to top political officials — President Obama and Senator Richard Wicker (R., MS) — tested positive for ricin, a deadly poison. As noted below, a man identified as Kenneth Curtis of Tupelo, Mississippi, has reportedly been arrested in connection with the mailings. Early this afternoon, massive confusion
