What do
you get
for a
monarch
who has
almost
everything?
Not,
apparently,
a new
yacht,
at least
not one
paid for
with
taxpayer
funds.
That was
the
message
Monday as
a brief boomlet
of
support
for the
idea of
providing
Queen
Elizabeth
II with
a new
royal
yacht to
mark her
Diamond
Jubilee
was
quickly
deflated
by Prime
Minister
David
Cameron.
It is
estimated
that a
new
yacht
would
cost at
least 60
million
pounds
($92
million/72,455,000
euro).
Cameron's
spokesman
Steve
Field
said it
would
not be
appropriate
for
public
funds to
be spent
on a new
yacht
during
times of
economic
hardship.

White and Hunter, 8, have
attended the

On Saturday they didn’t have

vintage service
station. More
pictures and a
story are in

In
this Thursday photo,
"Abraham
Lincoln: The
Man" by Augustus
Saint-Gaudens is
displayed in the
new American Wing of
the Metropolitan

early 20th
century are
bound to
captivate the

before.
Trust your body and yourself when
it comes to breastfeeding. Before you quit, give
yourself time (6 to 8 weeks) to adjust. Breastfeeding
is a learning process for you and your baby. After a
little bit of time you will both become more comfortable
and be on a schedule.
For more information,
contact the breastfeeding peer counselor at the Logan
