Star Wars fans are going to want to check out The Force Unleashed 2.

What gives? Even formula makers say “breast is best.” Nursing reduces a baby’s risk of diarrhea, ear infections, urinary-tract infections and bacterial infections (and perhaps food allergies, obesity and diabetes). It also lowers a mom’s risk of breast and ovarian cancer—and, since it burns 500 calories a day, helps her lose weight. And it’s free, while formula costs about $1,500 a year. Yet new evidence shows that there has been a decline in the number of women breast-feeding, reversing a steady increase over the past three decades....
