Latest Rights
In September, to preserve "respect and dignity" for newborns, the neonatal unit of Calderdale Royal Hospital in Halifax, England, officially banned visitors' "cooing" at infants. Said hospital official Debbie Lawson, "Cooing should be a thing of the past because these are little people with the same rights as you or me." To illustrate the rule, officials displayed a doll holding a sign reading: "What makes you think I want to be looked at?"

Cooing is banned, but apparently making faces and saying things like "Wook at the cute wittle baby!" are perfectly alright!**

The most powerful kiss in history!

Park Hyatt hotel maid Louise Kelsey, 58, testified in August in Melbourne, Australia, that she was kissed against her will in 2001 by a hotel guest (an Uruguayan soccer player in town for a World Cup match) and suffered a post-traumatic stress disorder that led to her being declared legally blind in 2002. Though a doctor for the defense derided it as "the most powerful kiss in history," the hotel's insurer agreed to its liability in October and said it would negotiate the money amount.

Getting paid lots of money for a kiss that you didn't want.... hmmm.. I think I'm not working the system right!**

**Just so you all know, I'm not Steve I'm Jenn, Steve just got sick of me complaining about his spell checker so he apparently decided I should do somthing more productive and stop whinning at him. So from now on posts that have a ** after the comments are mine!
