Because mastectomy should never be an outpatient procedure!
Submitted by Elizabeth on 4 October 2007 - 1:00amFor at least 10 years Rosa DeLauro (D-CT) has been trying to get legislation passed in Congress that would mandate insurance companies to pay for at least two nights of hospitalization for women having mastectomies. She has introduced her bill, called the Breast Cancer Patient Protection Act, five times. Each time it has been consigned to languish in committees.
This year she has agan reintroduced the bill. It is HR 758 this time around, and again it has been assigned to several committees. In fact, here's the list of committees to which it has been referred before action can be taken:

NYC spends $29,000 to arrest a topless woman
Submitted by Elizabeth on 19 June 2007 - 11:55amThis from the AP (sent by Will who saw it on MSNBC and is always generous in sharing “can you believe this madness type stories.)
It seems that despite an appeals court ruling 15 years ago that determined women have the right to be shirtless anywhere men are allowed to be shirtless, the New York City police arrested a woman, Jill Coccaro, (now known as Phoenix Feeley) two years ago for “indecent exposure” when she walked topless in public.
She was held for 12 hours before she was released and told she would not be prosecuted. She claims that during that time she was treated roughly and also taken for a mental health exam.
So if you’re shirtless in public and you’re female you must be crazy?
