f Google Glass' creators are to be believed, the high-tech headset is the shimmering gold key that will unlock a bright, frictionless future where every man, woman, and child is unconsciously tethered to the internet. And while early glimpses of the plastic monocle of the 1 percent are plenty exciting, Glass has some serious obstacles to overcome if it hopes to go "mainstream," says Marcus Wohlsen at Wired. Just like the unfilled potential of the Segway, Bluetooth headset, and pocket protector before it, Google's omnipresent face computer may just be "too dorky to live." Wohlsen writes:
Before its release, some of the smartest people in tech predicted that the Segway would change the world. And even when the world joined in a collective "Huh?" when the much-hyped secret Ginger project was revealed to be a gyro-balanced scooter, the idea still kind of made sense. If we were all riding around on Segways now, cities would probably be better places to live compared to the car-infested streets we still endure.
But that transformation hasn't happened. And it won't. Why? Because Segways are lame. They're too rational. They fail to acknowledge all the irrational reasons people love their cars.
Similarly, Google Glass fails to acknowledge that walking around with a camera mounted on the side of your face at all times makes you look dorky. Think of the Bluetooth headset: It's a really sensible way to use your phone without having to take it out of your pocket — so sensible that there's really no reason not to keep that headset in your ear most of the time.
But you don't, do you? [Wired]

[[folder: Fridge Brilliance ]]
* Even as a casual {{Deadpool}} fan, I have to wonder exactly why he's so bloody popular at the moment. So I looked at the state of the MarvelUniverse [[ModernAge at the moment]], and it became painfully clear. [[InAWorld In a]] CrapsackWorld where [[BlackAndGreyMorality you can barely tell the heroes from the villains]] and [[DarknessInducedAudienceApathy don't know who to cheer for]], where SpiderMan [[OneMoreDay made a a deal with the Devil]] and [[RunningTheAsylum many important stories are indistinguishable from bad fanfic]], Deadpool is different. He [[LampshadeHanging points out the absurdity]], he's just as confused about good and evil as the rest of us are. And most importantly, he's actually ''funny'', when damn near everyone else is painfully serious about wearing spandex and beating up other weirdos wearing spandex he's at least trying to crack funny jokes. Deadpool has been a shining ray of light in the darkness of the Marvel U, as goofy and fun as the SilverAge without the preachy morality, and reminds us who we're reading these damn things in the first place. - Sabre Justice
** What's very interesting is just how close this is to how he's portrayed in both "Uncanny X-Force" and "Thunderbolts"; sure, he's insane, but he's shown that he's a good man who, truthfully, just wants to do the right thing.
** Tropers/{{Stinkoman87}} just wants to add something: he's funny, but in a raunchy way, and uses guns. Deadpool is what would happen if someone made SpiderMan in the modern age.
** He also strikes a good balance between "AxCrazy murdering sociopath" and "Guy who honestly wants to do the right thing but keeps getting the HeelFaceDoorSlam". Just bloody enough to be badass, just annoying enough to be hilarious, and just messed up enough to be sympathetic.
*** Aw, Shucks, Guys, You really mean That?
** Troper/{{Enjoydamoment}} just wants to say yes we do Deadpool sir. You're the most balanced when you're unbalanced.

To make travelling comfortable this winter season, make sure that you've got a fully-functional Mercury Mountaineer heater core in your ride. This particular component is responsible for providing warmth in your cabin when you travel under freezing temperatures. The heater core basically works like a mini radiator, only it utilizes hot coolant that would provide your cabin the right kind of heat.
It's unusual to have problems with your Mercury Mountaineer heater core, but when you do, you have to deal with the problem before it's too late. You simply won't stand driving in super cold conditions with a badly broken heater core, so the best thing that you can do is address the glitch as soon as possible. If the damage of your auto part can't be fixed, you need to get a brand new part immediately.
Obtain the car component that is right for your vehicle right here at Parts Train-the most relible retailer of low-priced parts and accessories on the internet. With brands like Crown, SL, and Delphi in our extensive catalog, you won't regret shopping in our shop and keep coming back again. Don't go with other suppliers when finding the best Mercury Mountaineer heater core for your ride and order only from Parts Train.

You guys! Remember R.O.B.? No? R.O.B. was one of the first products from Nintendo back in the 80's. He was supposed to usher in a new trend of gaming, and make the experience more immersive, but really all he did was get in the way. Poor R.O.B. all he did was wind up in the back of the closet, or at an auction someplace, or an ebay (I think that's where they all went).
Well, now you can have your very own Robotic Operating Buddy to hang up on your very wall (batteries not included)

Neighborhoods: Central San Pedro, Harbor
Delicious & fun – A great location among the many art galleries, shops & dining choices, 7th Street Chophouse offers diners a fine selection in delicious meals to match a wonderful dining establishment. Friendly service promises the hungry enough tasty fare to please even the most discerning of tastes & if they can simply maintain a tried & true consistency, they'll succeed.
We thoroughly enjoyed the large crab cakes, kobe beef & porcini raviolis & baby spinach salad before our entrées of Veal Osso Buco & the Longie Supreme rib eye. Best of all: the Australian Rack of Lamb. The chops were phenomenal.
All in all, this new dining establishment has all the makings of an outstanding fine dining choice.

(Nintendo 3DS Review) Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers
"… remains an enjoyable and charming adventure …"
Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers in stores, online
Beware, there be demons about! Atlus has launched Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers in stores and on the eShop for 3DS. Originally an import-only release for the Sega Saturn, this lost entry in the Shin Megami Tensei series has been brought back from 1997 so that players can travel to the near-future and experience the virtual world of Paradigm X and demon-infested city of Amami. The 3DS version retains the original's graphics but has a revamped touch interface that allows for easy access to new hacks.

In addition to the the game, the set includes a soundtrack CD with six fan-favorite selections and a slip cover to house the contents.
(PlayStation 3 Review) Legasista
"…should offer dungeon-crawlers hours of entertainment."
Legasista brings the deadly Ivy Tower (of doooom) to PSN
A new dungeon-crawler has hit PSN today, courtesy of NIS America. The System Prism-developed Legasista tasks players with tackling the Ivy Tower and its harrowing dungeons with a three-character party of quirky adventurers. But there are more chances to get some sweet loot, as protagonist Alto and company can also run through random dungeons to kit themselves, and even custom-created characters modeled after imported images off the PS3, in swankier gear.
ClaDun x2 ventures to PC, ends up in the mysterious land of Steam
If you've been itching to crawl a few dungeons but don't have a PSP, you're in luck: ClaDun x2 is now available on Steam. NIS America's quirky dungeon-crawler features randomly generated maps and an emphasis on customization, with players able to tweak their character's appearance, weapons, and background music. A demo is also available, for those curious about the kinds of dangers Arcanus Cella has in store.
First screens from English version of Legasista emerge from NIS HQ
Some more shots from NIS today, and these are from the English version of their upcoming PS3 dungeon-crawler Legasista. The PlayStation Network exclusive will allow players to create and customize a three-character party, tweaking everything from appearance to gear, personality, and job classes, to take through the randomly generated dungeons that comprise the Ivy Tower. Characters can even be created from imported images that have been saved on the system.

techdirt.com I find it hard to believe that they have a name for it if it has only happened a handful of times over the last decade.
i'm pretty sure they dug deep into Justice Roberts' data before that final opinion came out. Same way they got rid of Patreus when he was going to blow the whistle on Benghazi. They just go data mining using NSA and then use whatever they can find to blackmail those not enlightened enough to understand and appreciate the greatness of 0 and VJ
Not going to, but you know it's gonna happen sooner or later with one of these rogue agents in these 'Obama crony' infiltrated agencies.
This is only the tip of the iceberg I'm sure. I hope Snowden can eventually gets it all out there before he's disappeared.
And people wonder why some are so uneasy about constantly handing over reins of things to our government.
That's the scary part. There's a funny part to this too. How many guys out there, despite supposedly hating the abuse, were like, heck yeah, I would have checked up on my woman too? :laugh:
When by brother was a low-level analyst, he said the hardest part was resisting the urge to check out or search for information on people he knew.
It's a natural urge...which is probably why many simply assume there's more to the story. Moral of the story is don't know anyone in the NSA, CIA, etc.... Oh, and be nice to your brother, always, lol
its much easier than having to stalk folks on twitter or Facebook. I'm guessing the folks that did it have probably been fired. Besides, this stuff is small potatoes. Cant wait for them to reveal that they intercept all that porn web traffic :jeez:

Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack this week announced the allocation of $234.5 million to 70 U.S. trade organizations to help promote American food and agricultural products overseas.
The provision included two Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS) programs: the Market Access Program (MAP) and the Foreign Market Development (FMD) Cooperator Program. The American Sheep Industry Association (ASI) was awarded funds through both programs.
The MAP program utilizes matching organizational funding as a means of cost-sharing overseas marketing and promotional activities. ASI uses MAP funding for projects such as top-combing and scouring trials, trade show participation, trade missions and reverse trade missions.
The FMD Cooperator Program focuses on reducing market impediments and identifying new markets or uses for U.S. products.
Sixty-six members of the U.S. House of Representatives this week sent a letter to Secretary of Agriculture Vilsack requesting full funding for MAP emphasizing the importance of the program to rural economies and trade-dependent states.

Savannah, MO (2009-07-13) The City of Savannah has too much water on its hands.
At a recent City Council meeting members heard a report from a representative of the Andrew County Lake Club.
He recapped the history of flooding problems at the Lake Club and pointed out new construction near the facility could cause even more damage.
Three manholes along the Lake near the east side of the road were also recently under water.
Council members heard a suggestion of a water detention area be made near Sonic along Highway E to Cedar Street.
The City will check with engineers on the problem.

Corsicana —
Editor's note: Calvin and Kristi Rasco of Blooming Grove, along with their children Bailey and Shawn, were aboard the ill-fated Carnival Triumph cruise ship. They got back to Navarro County this past weekend after a harrowing week at sea. This is the rest of their story. Part I of this two-part series is available at www.corsicanadailysun.com.
The Rascos weren't taking a Valentine's Day cruise, it was a family trip. Kristy is a dispatcher with the sheriff's office, Calvin's a construction supervisor. It was their first cruise.
"It was an impromptu thing," Kristy said.
Yes, the kids, 8-year-old Bailey, and 10-year-old Shawn were going to miss a couple of days of school, but for two working parents it was a matter of practicality and off-season rates. They didn't anticipate the extra week it would take them to get back, hauled by slow-moving tug boats from the middle of the Gulf of Mexico where the ship had drifted off-course.
Generators had been offloaded onto the ship, which made it possible to run a projector and show a movie, and run a microphone system for entertainment. The Rascos had to work out their own entertainment prior to that, keeping their son's Kindle charged so he could play video games, and keeping at least one phone available as a backup. Their daughter spent her first day stacking cups in one of the lounges, but subsequent days were spent with board games or cards, or watching the chaos around them.
The boredom, the insurmountable problems around them, those were the majority of what their days consisted of. But it was the small moments, when they realized how far the ship was listing or that they were being lied to, when they began to feel real fear.
"We had tears a few times, from being scared and hungry and tired," Kristy said.
But then they'd look around them, at the people who had retained their senses of humor and made jokes, who put up a bed sheet for everyone to sign, at a crew that, despite a shortage of food, water, air conditioning, a place to sleep and any hope of fat tips, smiled through it all, as if it were a marvelous adventure.
"The crew was amazing," Kristy said. "They did everything they could to make people comfortable."
Morale was good on the ship, Kristy said. The cruise director allowed herself to become the butt of jokes just to boost spirits and the passengers took it upon themselves to paint amusing graffiti on the walls everywhere. Most of the people they met were positive about it all, Calvin said.
"I think they did an amazing job for what they had," Calvin said. "I give everybody the benefit of the doubt. It could have been a lot worse. We were more worried about our kids and the sanitation — trying to keep them from touching things and putting their hands in their mouths."
Sanitation was an issue all over the ship.
"Probably by Wednesday they were breaking down beer boxes so we had a dry place to walk," Calvin said. "It was a cardboard sidewalk."
The water that dripped from the ceilings, that welled up through the tiles in the floors and oozed in the carpet was black.
"They never told you what it was but you knew," Kristy said. "It was sewage. You knew it was something bad."
For Shawn, who spent much of the time playing on his Kindle or one of his parents' cell phones, it wasn't that awful.
"This was the best vacation ever," he said cheerfully.
"It was not the best vacation ever, it was probably the worst," Bailey disagreed.
On Friday, the day after the ship docked in Mobile, the first lawsuit had already been filed against Carnival.
The Rascos aren't angry, though. They have friends who have been on dozens of cruises and love it for the inclusive luxury in that mode of travel. Both adult Rascos said they would be willing to take another cruise. Bailey said she didn't want to take anymore, but that wasn't something her parents wanted to try to talk her out of anyway. They said they knew even before the fire that taking the kids on a cruise hadn't been the best idea. The Triumph was a party boat, meant for young people who wanted to drink and dance the night away, not families with small children with short attention spans.
Still, just a few days after getting off the ship, the family is still in disbelief that it happened at all. They're already starting to joke about it, in fact.
"We're going to suffer Post Cruise Syndrome, where red bags make us go off," Calvin said.
Editor's note: Part 1 of this story indicated that the Rascos were traveling without passports. Kristy Rasco notifed the Daily Sun Thursday that the family did have passports.

DExD/H Box RNA Helicases
Molecular Cell, Volume 8, Issue 2, 1 August 2001, Pages 251-262
N.Kyle Tanner and Patrick Linder
SummaryRNA helicases of the DEAD box and related DExD/H proteins form a very large superfamily of proteins conserved from bacteria and viruses to humans. They have seven to eight conserved motifs, the characteristics of which are used to subgroup members into individual families. They are associated with all processes involving RNA molecules, including transcription, editing, splicing, ribosome biogenesis, RNA export, translation, RNA turnover, and organelle gene expression. Analysis of the three-dimensional structures obtained through the crystallization of viral and cellular RNA helicases reveals a strong structural homology to DNA helicases. In this review, we discuss our current understanding of RNA helicases and their biological function.

SummarySF1 and SF2 helicases have structurally conserved cores containing seven to eight distinctive motifs and variable amino- and carboxyl-terminal flanking sequences. We have discovered a motif upstream of motif I that is unique to and characteristic of the DEAD box family of RNA helicases. It consists of a 9 amino acid sequence containing an invariant glutamine. A conserved phenylalanine occurs 17 aa further upstream. Sequence alignments, site-specific mutagenesis, and ATPase assays show that this motif and the upstream phenylalanine are highly conserved, that they are essential for viability in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and that they control ATP binding and hydrolysis in the yeast translation-initiation factor eIF4A. These results are consistent with computer studies of the solved crystal structures.

SummaryThe RNA helicase eIF4A plays a key role in unwinding of mRNA and scanning during translation initiation. Free eIF4A is a poor helicase and requires the accessory proteins eIF4G and eIF4H. However, the structure of the helicase complex and the mechanisms of stimulation of eIF4A activity have remained elusive. Here we report the topology of the eIF4A/4G/4H helicase complex, which is built from multiple experimentally observed domain-domain contacts. Remarkably, some of the interactions are continuously rearranged during the ATP binding/hydrolysis cycle of the helicase. We show that the accessory proteins modulate the affinity of eIF4A for ATP by interacting simultaneously with both helicase domains and promoting either the closed, ATP-bound conformation or the open, nucleotide-free conformation. The topology of the complex and the spatial arrangement of the RNA-binding surfaces offer insights into their roles in stimulation of helicase activity and the mechanisms of mRNA unwinding and scanning.

- Background: Translation initiation factor 4A (eIF4A) is the prototype of the DEAD-box family of proteins. DEAD-box proteins are involved in a variety of cellular processes including splicing, ribosome biogenesis and RNA degradation. Energy from ATP hydrolysis is used to perform RNA unwinding during initiation of mRNA translation. The presence of eIF4A is required for the 43S preinitiation complex to bind to and scan the mRNA.Results: We present here the crystal structure of the nucleotide-binding domain of eIF4A at 2.0 Å and the structures with bound adenosinediphosphate and adenosinetriphosphate at 2.2 Å and 2.4 Å resolution, respectively. The structure of the apo form of the enzyme has been determined by multiple isomorphous replacement. The ATPase domain contains a central seven-stranded β sheet flanked by nine α helices. Despite low sequence homology to the NTPase domains of RNA and DNA helicases, the three-dimensional fold of eIF4A is nearly identical to the DNA helicase PcrA of Bacillus stearothermophilus and to the RNA helicase NS3 of hepatitis C virus.Conclusions: We have determined the crystal structure of the N-terminal domain of the eIF4A from yeast as the first structure of a member of the DEAD-box protein family. The complex of the protein with bound ADP and ATP offers insight into the mechanism of ATP hydrolysis and the transfer of energy to unwind RNA. The identical fold of the ATPase domain of the DNA helicase PcrA of B. stearothermophilus and the RNA helicase of hepatitis C virus suggests a common fold for all ATPase domains of DExx- and DEAD-box proteins.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- An Illinois truck driver accused of killing at least four women in three states has been booked on a grand jury indictment of five counts of solicitation to commit first-degree murder.
The indictment announced on Monday by Nashville police charges Bruce Mendenhall with seeking to arrange the murders of Nashville police detectives, Sgt. Pat Postiglione and Lee Freeman, and three witnesses while in jail.
Mendenhall, 57, a truck driver from Albion, Ill., is charged with the June 26, 2007 shooting death of Sara Nicole Hulbert, 25, whose body was found at a truck stop along Interstate 24 in Nashville.
He was arrested by detectives the following month and has since been charged with killing three other women in Lebanon, Tenn., Indianapolis, and Birmingham, Ala.
He remains a suspect in at least two other homicide cases in Indiana and Georgia.
Mendenhall has been held without bond since his arrest.

The U.S. Forest Service is reopening bids for the next-generation of firefighting planes after two companies protested the initial award.
The $261 million, five-year contract was originally awarded to Missoula-based Neptune Aviation. It would have modernized the private fleet of large air tankers that drop retardant slurry on forest fires.
Canada-based Coulson Aviation and 10 Tanker of Victorville, Calif., challenged the Forest Service's contracting process in August.
The Forest Service rejected bids from jumbo-jet companies like 10 Tanker and for water-scooper planes that don't use retardant.
Neptune president Dan Snyder tells the Missoulian (http://bit.ly/WMiod70 the company received notice Friday the contract would be reposted with 31 amendments.
He says he is not yet sure what the Forest Service wants Neptune to do differently.

LARAMIE, Wyoming (Ticker) -- Wyoming rebounded at home with its first win vs. a Southeastern Conference opponent.
Josh Barge scored a pair of second-half touchdowns and Joseph Harris rushed for 124 yards as the Cowboys held on for a 37-32 victory over the Mississippi Rebels.
In its previous game two weeks ago, Wyoming (2-1) was outgained by 300 yards in falling to Texas A&M, 31-0. Prior to beating the Rebels, the Cowboys were 0-8 vs. the SEC.
Barge, who had just two touchdowns in his previous 24 games, gave Wyoming a 27-15 lead early in the second half with an 87-year punt return for a score.
After Mississippi (1-3) closed to within five points midway through the fourth on Jonathan Nichols' fourth field goal, Barge hauled in a 69-yard touchdown pass from wide receiver Jovon Bouknight to make it 37-25 with just over five minutes remaining.
Harris, a junior college transfer, needed 23 carries to set a team season-high in rushing. His six-yard score in the second quarter to gave the Cowboys a 14-6 edge.
Bouknight had six catches for 68 yards and caught a touchdown pass from Corey Bramlet on Wyoming's opening possession. Bramlet completed 15-of-31 passes for 171 yards.
Ethan Flatt threw for 284 yards but completed only 19-of-44 passes and had four interceptions for the Rebels, who lost for just the sixth time in their last 37 games vs. non-SEC teams.
Flatt hit Mario Hill eight times for 142 yards and Vashon Pearson ran for 140 yards in a losing cause. Brandon Jacobs had a pair of short touchdown runs for Mississippi.

Long-Term Fiscal Challenge:
Comments on the Bipartisan Task Force for Responsible Fiscal Action Act
GAO-08-238T: Published: Oct 31, 2007. Publicly Released: Oct 31, 2007.
Additional Materials:

GAO has for many years warned that our nation is on an imprudent and unsustainable fiscal path. During the past 2 years, the Comptroller General has traveled to 24 states as part of the Fiscal Wake-Up Tour. Members of this diverse group of policy experts agree that finding solutions to the nation's long-term fiscal challenge will require bipartisan cooperation, a willingness to discuss all options, and the courage to make tough choices. Indeed, the members of the Fiscal Wake-Up Tour believe that fiscal responsibility and intergenerational equity must be a top priority for the new President. Several bills have been introduced that would establish a bipartisan group to develop proposals/policy options for addressing the longterm fiscal challenge. At the request of Chairman Conrad and Senator Gregg, the Comptroller General discussed GAO's views on their proposal to create a Bipartisan Task Force for Responsible Fiscal Action (S. 2063).
Long-term fiscal simulations by GAO, Congressional Budget Office (CBO), and others all show that despite some modest improvement in near-term deficits, we face large and growing structural deficits driven primarily by rising health care costs and known demographic trends. Under any realistic policy scenario or assumptions, the nation's longer-term fiscal outlook is daunting. Continuing on this unsustainable fiscal path will gradually erode, if not suddenly damage, our economy, our standard of living, and ultimately our national security. Our current path also increasingly will constrain our ability to address emerging and unexpected budgetary needs and increase the burdens that will be faced by future generations. As the Comptroller General stated when the bill was introduced, the Bipartisan Task Force for Responsible Fiscal Action offers one potential means to taking steps to make the tough choices necessary to keep America great, and to help make sure that our country's, children's, and grandchildren's future is better than our past. GAO noted that the bill incorporates key elements needed for any task force or commission to be successful: (1) a statutory basis, (2) a broad charter that does not artificially limit what can be discussed and does not set policy preconditions for membership, (3) bipartisan membership, (4) involvement of leaders from both the executive and legislative branches--including elected officials, (5) a report with specific proposals and a requirement for supermajority vote to make recommendations to the President and the Congress, and (6) a process to require consideration of the proposals. GAO also made some suggestions it believes could enhance the likelihood that the bill will achieve its overarching goals. GAO suggested the sponsors consider (1) including a way for the next President to be involved in the process of proposal development, (2) permitting alternative packages to be voted on that would achieve the same fiscal result, and (3) eliminating the requirement for a supermajority in Congress. With the same aim, GAO also expressed some reservations about the current approach to specifying the Task Force Chairman.

When trying to uninstall Apple Mobile Device Support: The Installer has insufficient privileges to modify this file: C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\com.apple.MobileSync.client.resources\ClientDescription50.plist.
b noir Burwood (Christchurch), New Zealand
That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

I ran the disk check, and slelected both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors. I checked it a few times while it was running, but then I missed it when it was finished. The next time I looked it was ready for me to log into my Windows account.

I tried to install again, and ran into the same problems. When asked if I wanted to repair or completely remove iTunes, I selected Completely remove. The other apple programs were in the list in the control panel like before. I left that alone and ran the installer again. When it was done I got the same errors (Error 7 (Windows error 126)).

If you are still having your issues try this:
Go here: http://www.revouninstaller.com/revo_uninstaller_free_download.html and download the free version of Revo. Revo is a program that will install almost any program, even if the built in uninstaller fails. I had the a simillar issue as you. Be sure the user you are logged on as, has administrative rights. Install Revo and run it. You will see all the programs that are installed on your computer. Right click on Apple Mobile Devce Support and chosse uninstall. Chose the advanced option. After the install finishes, it will search your computer for any registry entries and files that where left behind. The registry scan found thousands of entries on mine. Choose select all, and delete all. Also do this on the file scan. Restart your computer and you should be able to install Itunes.

Gabriel Ambrosio, ex-state senator, of Lyndhurst, dies
Gabriel Ambrosio, a Lyndhurst lawyer whose brief tenure as a Democratic state senator belied his influence, died of cancer Thursday. He was 74.
"Gabe was ahead of his time," former Lyndhurst Mayor Louis J. Stellato Jr. said. "He had a brilliant mind and was more liberal than the conservative blue-collar Democrats of south Bergen. The issues important to him in the '80s, such as gay rights and gun control, are issues that are important today."
Mr. Ambrosio, who lost a House race in 1980, was the Lyndhurst Democratic municipal chairman when he won a March 1987 special election to fill the 36th District seat of the late state Sen. Joseph Hirkala. He won a full four-year term that November, defeating Lyndhurst neighbor Kathleen Donovan, then an assemblywoman and now the Bergen County executive.
Mr. Ambrosio assumed a high profile in Trenton. After a clandestine plan to double tolls on the Garden State Parkway to 50 cents came to light — a plan known to Gov. Thomas H. Kean, a Republican — Mr. Ambrosio headed a Senate committee that probed the legality of the New Jersey Highway Authority's secret meetings and other alleged abuses by the agency.
He was a critic of the authority during the panel's nearly two years of meetings. In the end, parkway tolls did not go up 25 cents. They rose by a dime.
Mr. Ambrosio's signature legislative achievement was a law that gave terminally ill adults the right to decide whether they should be sustained by artificial means. The "living wills" bill was supported by medical and consumer groups, and was opposed by the Catholic Church.
Mr. Ambrosio also was chairman of a Senate panel that looked into New Jersey's high car insurance rates. He was the lone senator opposed to a "smokers' rights" measure that bars employer discrimination against people who smoke away from the job.
And he took on Donald Trump. When the real estate mogul, at a hearing on how to improve Atlantic City government, suggested that casino executives like himself should be allowed to seek political office, Mr. Ambrosio responded, "That proposal doesn't have a snowball's chance in hell."
Midway through Mr. Ambrosio's full Senate term, New Jerseyans elected a Democratic governor, Jim Florio. Mr. Ambrosio was an ally of Florio, supported his unpopular tax proposals and broke bread with him at the Lyndhurst Diner. Standing by Florio cost Mr. Ambrosio, who was defeated for reelection in 1991 — a bad year for New Jersey Democrats.
Florio remembered Mr. Ambrosio as "conscientious and public-spirited."
