Britain's gone crazy ? royal baby crazy
As Kate and William await their big day, royal baby eccentricities abound.

EnlargeAs Catherine Middleton and her husband, Prince William, prepare in private for the imminent arrival of their first child, it appears as though the rest of the country ? and even some outside it ? has gone royal baby crazy.

Jewel-encrusted baby gifts, betting on names, royal baby-themed crackers ? these are just a few of the various eccentricities that have abounded in recent weeks as the world watches with bated breath for Britain?s future monarch.
Bets have been running for weeks now on all things related to the upcoming birth, from the sex and name of the baby to even the day it will happen. According to The Week, bookmakers are currently saying tomorrow, Thursday July 11, is most likely to be the big day.
And though the sex of the baby is still unknown ? the Duchess and Duke of Cambridge?prefer to be surprised ? a surge of interest has pushed Alexandra to the fore. Other girls' names in the running include Victoria and Diana, reports the Telegraph. The most widely speculated boy's name is that of Kate?s younger brother, James.
The child will be given the title Prince or Princess of Cambridge. But regardless of gender, he or she will be third in line for the throne, since Parliament passed a law mandating that a female heir cannot be overtaken by a younger male relative.
Gamblers aren?t the only ones spending money on the royal baby. Sudocrem, which makes skin care creams,?has commissioned British jewelry designer Theo Fennell to design a jewel-studded charm bracelet that also serves as a diaper-rash-cream holder for Kate, reports Headlines and Global News. The bracelet costs a reported $15,000.
And that's just one of the gifts the royal couple has received. As HNGN continues:
So far, Kate Middleton and Prince William have received everything from a cardboard box from the Finnish government to a knitted kangaroo from Australia's [former] Prime Minister Julia Gillard, and a crate of organic baby food. PETA gifted the Duke and Duchess a faux-sheepskin baby blanket complete with a little stuffed animal giraffe, and Finnish social security service, Kela, sent the new parents a "baby box" that contains rompers, leggings, a hooded bath towel, hairbrush, diaper rash cream, a picture book, a snowsuit, teething toy and ... condoms!
Other than gifts, Kate and William can expect a deluge of unsolicited advice from the public. According to the Telegraph, parenting website Mumsnet has asked its readers to tweet advice to the soon-to-be mother using the hashtag ?#tips4kate.? The best tweets will be compiled and published in a book that will be sent to the Duchess and Duke of Cambridge.
Some of the advice, however, has come from an unlikely source. Nicole ?Snooki? Polizzi, former star of reality TV show ?The Jersey Shore? and recent mother, has posted a public letter offering her advice to Kate, reports CBS. Here?s what she had to say:
"In the beginning, right when you take your royal golden nugget home to the castle is the most exciting experience of your life. I couldn't wait to wake up in the middle of the night to take care of my little prince Lorenzo."
"But that lasts for about a few days. Then it's like, 'I love you but OMG stop crying! I'm exhausted.' The lack of sleep you will get used to -- just do your makeup, put a tiara on, and you'll look beautiful as usual," she added.
At least the royal couple will not be the only recipients of baby-related goods. According to the Huffington Post, the Royal Mint will be distributing silver coins to all children born on the same day as the royal baby. Only a limited amount?? 2,013 coins?? will be minted though, so new parents will have to act fast in order to get one.?
The baby will be born at St. Mary's Hospital in London, where both William and his brother Prince Harry were born.

Cartel leader with Dallas ties nabbed in Mexico border city
WFAA Border Bureau
Posted on July 15, 2013 at 6:45 PM
Updated today at 9:16 PM
EL PASO ? The leader of the notorious Zetas drug cartel is in custody in Mexico after an intense manhunt.
Mexican marines captured Miguel Trevino Morales in Nuevo Laredo on the Texas border, ending a reign of terror.
The face of Trevino Morales appeared to be bruised and battered in a booking photo obtained by the WFAA Border Bureau following the Zeta leader's capture.
Mexican marines cornered the man also known as "40" near Nuevo Laredo, the Zetas' base of operation.
He spent his teenage years in Dallas, and was arrested in Dallas County in 1993 trying to evade police, but only paid a fine.
Many of his family members lived in the Dallas area, and Trevino Morales allegedly recruited teens in Texas to help the cartel.
A 2008 indictment charged him and others with moving marijuana, cocaine, drugs and cash between Nuevo Laredo and Dallas.
It was on the streets of Nuevo Laredo that Trevino Morales rose through the ranks from gang member to cartel leader. Unlike the original Zetas, he did not have a military background.
Trevino Morales' territory included the region bordering South Texas, where the Zetas clashed violently with their former allies in the Gulf cartel over control of the Interstate 35 smuggling corridor.
Officials predict a spike in violence in the Nuevo Laredo border area as the Gulf cartel tries to take advantage of the power vacuum to move into Zeta territory.
Now that the long manhunt is over, Trevino Morales faces charges for drug trafficking, money laundering and murder on both sides of the border.
The U.S. had offered a $5 million reward and Mexico $2 million for information leading to his arrest.

Pellegrini's Man City loses SAfrican tour opener
Associated Press Sports
updated 6:20 p.m. ET July 14, 2013
PRETORIA, South Africa (AP) -New coach Manuel Pellegrini will need a little more time to mold Manchester City into a Premier League title challenger after it lost 2-0 to Supersport United to open its pre-season tour of South Africa on Sunday.
Senegalese striker Mame Niang and South African international Kermit Erasmus scored second-half goals for Supersport at Loftus Versfeld to beat a City team clearly in pre-season mode and far from top gear.
Edin Dzeko and James Milner went closest to scoring for City, while Pellegrini fielded completely different lineups in each half. Brazil midfielder Fernandinho started for City in a subdued debut alongside young Spanish midfielder Denis Suarez. Both made way in the wholesale changes for the second 45.
Niang rose between defenders Joleon Lescott and Matja Nastasic to head past reserve goalkeeper Costel Pantilimon for the opener in the 56th minute. Erasmus ran on to a defense-splitting pass to flick the ball past Pantilimon and into the far right corner for the second in the 82nd.
Dzeko had combined with Samir Nasri to force a double save from Ronwen Williams in the opening 20 minutes and Milner was denied by a combination of substitute `keeper Boalefa Phule - one of Supersport's host of changes - and a diving block by a defender in the 73rd.
Apart from that, City created little and wasn't anywhere near its best form having only started proper pre-season preparations last week, according to Pellegrini.
"I think it's always important to win but it's not the most important thing at the moment," Pellegrini said. "We are very far (from top form). We've just had our first week. When pre-season continues, after three weeks or a month, we will see where we are."
The likes of goalkeeper Joe Hart, captain Vincent Kompany, Fernandinho, Nasri and Dzeko all went off at halftime, with Lescott and Nastasic coming on and Yaya Toure taking over as skipper.
Toure had a speculative long-range shot in the 76th that sailed over the crossbar before he limped off at the very end.
City's players unveiled a shirt dedicated to ailing former South African President Nelson Mandela before kickoff, and the Premier League visitors will play their second game on tour on Thursday to mark the 95th birthday of the anti-apartheid icon.
