President's Notebook
My View from South Hill
Tagged as "Ed Glazer"
Tuesday, October 14, 2008
I had the opportunity recently to join a group of Ithaca College alumni, parents and friends in the owner's box for a Tampa Bay Buccaneers football game, courtesy of Ed Glazer, co-owner of the team and member of the Ithaca College class of '92. The evening before, we took a tour of the team's new training facilities, including an opportunity to talk with Coach Jon Gruden. As we walked from the magnificent lobby through locker rooms, weight rooms, training rooms, meeting rooms, and media centers, our group of Ithaca College supporters could not help but note features that we might want to incorporate into our own Athletics and Events Center, an ambitious undertaking on which the College hopes to break ground next spring.
The most striking aspect of the tour, though, was to see how strongly team images were incorporated throughout the facility. Our first hint was the giant Buccaneer flag that flies between that stadium and the training center a half mile away. Within the training center itself, the Buccaneer red and silver is everywhere, along with the team logo. Giant photographs of players in action adorn the walls, as do reminders of the team's triumph in Super Bowl XXXVII in 2003 In the weight room, where players push their capacities and in which the team gels into a band of brothers, banners spur the players on with such slogans as "You Get What You Deserve" and "How Much Do You Want It?"
An NFL team in a typical year will have a large number of players who were not on the team the year before. Since the average professional career is less than five years long, a significant fraction of the players will be new to the league. Others will be new to the team through trade or free agency. Molding 53 athletes into a cohesive team is a challenge renewed every fall.
A college campus, by contrast, is a bastion of individualism. Students are on campus to extend their horizons and hone their skills as individuals. Dorm rooms and faculty offices are decorated according to personal taste, and adornments are carefully chosen to proclaim one's unique identity and interests.
Despite those differences, a professional sports team and a college campus are united by the pursuit of excellence. Every day on South Hill sees the creation of several thousand stories of striving for greater insight, capacity or performance. Breakthroughs are made in studios, seminar rooms, laboratories, clinics, practice rooms, and rehearsal spaces. Students have their "Eureka!" moments in the library and on stage. Although we never come together as a single unit on Sunday afternoon to measure our progress in competition against an opponent, the Ithaca College campus is as focused on the development of human potential as are the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
On the day we were there, Tampa Bay soundly defeated the team that had previously been in first place in their division. You get what you deserve.

Laws are designed to protect the innocent, but sometimes they backfire and end up sheltering the guilty. That is exactly what happened to Melvin Henry Ignatow, who will never go to jail for killing his fianci in 1988, despite iron-clad evidence that he planned and carried out her murder!
AMERICAN JUSTICE® interviewed those most familiar with this startling case, including family members of the people involved and lawyers for both sides, to show how this travesty unfolded and examine its impact.
The case broke when Ignatow's former girlfriend, Mary Ann Shore, confessed to helping with the murder and taking photos of the crime as it happened. Despite an extensive search, the photos were not found, and the trial proceeded without them, relying instead on Shore's testimony. To the shock of nearly everyone, including the judge, the jury returned a verdict of not guilty. Then the photos were found...
On the basis of the photographic evidence, Ignatow was convicted of perjury and sentenced to five years in jail, but double indemnity laws prevent his ever being tried again or serving time for the murder he committed.

So after playing with this for weeks, I believe this is probably the maximum that we can get out of the Fuji RAF files until the other developers come up with better understanding of the unique X-Trans CMOS sensor. Now this is still not the most ideal workflow for most people. Pixel Peeping aside, the Fuji X files are fantastic, even in Adobe Lightroom. My goal in this was to get a better understanding of what is going on. I wish I knew how to program, because I'd love to create a simpler way to do this. If there's anyone out there that is interested in taking what I've done and turning into a nice little drag and drop application, I think you'd get a lot of fans.
The Process
1. Using command line DCRAW: dcraw -a -H 0 -o 4 -q 2 -f -m 15 -g 2.4 12.9 -6 -T
2. Convert TIFF file to LAB file in Photoshop
3. Resize image 200% with Bicubic Smoother
4, Select Lightness Channel under channel panel.
5. Select Median filter under Noise in Filter. Select 1 pixel
6. Resize image 50% with Bicubic Sharper (Nearest Neighbour is actually a more subtle effect which I kind of prefer)
7. Save.
SilkyPix and RPP both process very similar files and although I know for certain that RPP uses DCRAW, SilkyPix I believe is a proprietary RAW engine. What I do speculate is the chroma smearing is a result of interpolation errors. Much of it can be suppressed with chroma noise reduction without loss of image quality. However one of the big nagging issues was this 'zipper' aliasing that was happening. After analyzing the files, it seems specifically the red sub-pixels are causing much of this zipper effect, but also part of the interpolation issues. I was able to get rid of a good portion of the chroma smearing by doing 3x3 multi-pass median filtering through DCRAW.....

Jeep Wrangler power folding top kit debuts at SEMA
by Steven J. Ewing (RSS feed) on Nov 1st, 2011 at 12:02PM
Considering how long the Jeep Wrangler has been in production, we're surprised that nobody thought of this sooner. The Jeep enthusiasts at Omix-Ada Inc. have designed what they're calling the world's first power folding soft top kit for the beloved Wrangler, which can be fitted to any 2007-2012 model year four-door model. (The company says a kit for the two-door Wrangler is expected to arrive later in 2012.) The Rugged Ridge package comes complete with a vinyl top, power top frame, hydraulics, wiring harness and installation pack, and the top itself includes a zip-out, removable, tinted... Read More

They grow 'em kinda weird out here. (Present company included.)Delete
This was AWESOME. Hearing your stories makes me want to tell mine. There was a man who came dressed as surprise!! A clown!! He just wanted me to know if I couldn't handle his airquotes hobby then best I move on. I agreed.ReplyDeleteReplies
Oh my God, Alexandra. I can't even.Delete
Spit-snorted all the way through. I assume 53 became your new lucky number in a quick hurry? Love to you, Mr. R., and Mighty Mouth.ReplyDelete
Laughed so hard. Sorry you had to go through all that, but boy, can you tell a story. :-)ReplyDeleteReplies
Thanks, Shari!Delete
Hilariously painful to read. Who are those men?!?! So glad you met your 53rd. :)ReplyDeleteReplies

Especially after visiting LA last month, I guessed that dating in LA would be a nightmare. Thank you for confirming. (Although you know I probably would have gone on Date #2 with mixtape guy, just because.)ReplyDeleteReplies

It's really nice to know that I'm not the only one with some seriously bad dates, guy who insisted he was Jim Morrison reincarnated then told me he would gladly follow me home and check for spirits in my bedroom, I'm looking at you.ReplyDelete
Fantastic story telling as usual! Thanks for the laughs and the solidarity.Replies
Oh Jeez. That's one for the books, for sure.Delete
Thanks, Lady.
Something I love about this post (other than the fact that it's both hilarious and mortifying at the same time!) is that you have managed to make every single one of those dates, including the fateful Mr. Rosenberg, sound like a template for a sit-com character.ReplyDelete
It's stories like these that make me feel fortunate that I've never really gone on dates with people, and just met people out & about that I've 'clicked' with. But they also make me wonder if I'm missing out on some interesting experiences because of that.
Thank you for sharing these stories, though; spending Valentines Day an ocean apart from my significant other hasn't been very fun, and this has helped put a smile on my face.
Dydd Sant Ffolant Hapus!

Happy Valentine's Day, Herm!! xoxoDelete
Priceless. I'm always too afraid to actually go on dates whenever I join online dating sites. It's scary and it seems like they're always single for a very good reason. Happy Valentine's Day!ReplyDeleteReplies
It's a numbers game, Jaimie, but worth the wait! xoDelete
Whenever I think despairingly that there is nobody for me, that unlucky in love is how my whole life will go, I am reminded of your tales and I'm grateful for the reminder to not give up.ReplyDelete
Great idea! you should do posts like this every valentines day. Maybe next year talk about your first kiss ;PReplyDeleteReplies

WASHINGTON - While shoppers are hunting for the best deal, thieves will be searching for an easy target.
And to help keep shoppers stay safe this holiday season, Montgomery County Police will increase patrols at 10 local shopping centers, says Police Chief Tom Manger.
Police will also hand out 5,000 reusable neon yellow bags with a pair of eyes and a message that asks, "Can you see me now?"
Manger announced a new safety campaign called "Shop with a Cop" Tuesday to ring in the start of the holiday season.
The number of crashes involving pedestrians in parking lots and on streets surrounding shopping areas increases during this time of the year. According to the Montgomery County Police Department, roughly 20 percent of pedestrian collisions take place in parking lots.
Thefts from vehicles and robberies also spike during the holidays, Manger says.
"We're just asking people to stay aware and use those common sense measures that we talk about every single holiday season," he says.
Police say shoppers should make sure that drivers can see them as they walk through parking lots. And once the shopping is done, police say bags should be stowed out of sight in a locked trunk; don't leave them on a car seat to tempt passersby.
"If that individual is inclined to steal it, all they've got to do is break a window and they've got the merchandise," he says.
Shopping centers taking part in the Shop With a Cop program include:
- Congressional Shopping Center, Wintergreen Shopping Center, Federal Plaza and Fallsgrove Village, Rockville
- Cabin John Mall, Potomac
- Shops in the Central Business Districts of Bethesda and Friendship Heights
- City Place Mall, Silver Spring
- White Oak Shopping Center, White Oak
- Briggs Chaney Shopping Center, Briggs Chaney
- Aspen Hill Shopping Center, Aspen Hill
- Westfield Wheaton
- Milestone Shopping Center, Germantown
- Lake Forest Mall, Gaithersburg
Tips for safe shopping include:
- Stay alert, be aware of your surroundings
- Park in well-lit areas
- Don't carry large amounts of cash
- Close purses and keep them close to the body
- Carry a wallet in an inside coat pocket or front pants pocket
- Trust your instincts - if something makes you uneasy, avoid the person or situation and head to a safe area.
- Have your house or car keys in hand before reaching the door
- If someone does try to rob you, police say don't resist. Give up the property - do not endanger your life. Report the crime to police as soon as possible and try to describe the attacker as accurately as possible. Rapid reporting may prevent others from becoming victims.

As Daiken-Met Architects told us, "In the local city, we are facing various problems such as decreasing population, increasing vacant land, on the other hand it is difficult to make a rental contract for small buildings." Because of this, they decided to build their own office and obtained a short-term rental contract for a small parcel of land where they could set up their temporary office. As part of their lease agreement, they proposed an architectural design and agreed to remove and reconstruct it every few years.
The Sugoroku Office is built from seven stacked shipping containers on three levels with two spaces left open for balconies. A mobile steel frame serves as the foundation – it provides support for the containers while reducing the structural load placed on them. Circulation routes are installed on the outside of the containers to provide access all the way up to the 3rd floor. The frame and containers can easily be dismantled, removed and rebuilt whenever necessary. The interiors of the containers are finished with used plywood or packing bands from a construction site.

I love the idea of solid portable buildings like this!
But I find it a bit curious that they felt the need to build a structural grid to hold up and stack the containers when the containers themselves are meant to be stacked 8 to 10 high on ships. Even with seismic/wind loading and incorporating elements such as balconies, stairs and open areas, I would come up with design/engineering solutions that don't rely on an external grid structure. This is precisely what our own portable production fabrication/office structures are about. ~ shelterkraft

Critical Hit Tables--Not Just For Rolemaster
The book that governs all these wonderful critical for Rolemaster is called Arms Law, and true to the legacy of Rolemaster, is modular in nature. That means Arms Law can be easily adapted with a number of systems. At the time that the last edition of Arms Law was published, it contained rules for converting the system to AD&D. With that, it is easy enough to translate it to any several similiar classical games.
However, if you're playing something other than AD&D, you can still use Arms Law with a number of other systems. This free download by Iron Crown details Arms Law conversions for a number of other systems, to include:
-D&D 3rd Edition
-Legend of the Five Rings
-World of Darkness (including Werewolf)
The AD&D notes are also included in the free download. What's more, there are conversions for using Arms Law with such systems as Castles & Crusades and ICE's own High Adventure Role Playing (HARP). Older editions also had conversions for the HERO System, but I can't locate it at the moment.
For about $16 for a print copy or $8 for a pdf, you can have all the heartache and crunchy, painful, thrilling goodness that comes with Rolemaster's critical hit charts without having to leave the comfort of your own game.
My advice? If it sounds like fun, try it. There's a reason Rolemaster's critical hits are alternately revered and cursed in the RPG community.

Do you think I would be able to use it with Pathfinder? I saw the d20 conversion, and thought it would carry over, but wasn't entirely sure. Thanks!

The use of crit and fumble tables seems to have gone a bit out of fashion (though my group has been using them forever). Glad to see they're making a comeback!
- January 12, 2010 at 8:45 AM
- Zachary The First said...
@Normal: Yes, it should. I haven't used it for Pathfinder, but it should be usable just with the 3e/d20 conversion.
@mthomas: That's true, though I think a lot of groups out there (such as yours) are still using them. In fact, I would bet that critical hits in general are one of the most houseruled aspects of any game.

Recently read a story about a dude on the subway who was stabbed thoroughly and repeatedly by a crazy varmint, he fought off his attacker and fled, got himself to the hospital, and is doing fine.
Something tells me you can't model that with just hit points, unless the attacker rolled "1" for damage a dozen times in a row ...
I'd argue that, as durable as people actually are, you could do away with a HP system altogether and simply use critical hit charts modified by weapon type - that is, heavier / larger weapons get a small bonus and inefficient, "at-hand", or ceremonial weapons get a small penalty.
Basically you get stuck and stuck and bashed around and suddenly lose an arm, and the critical hit system would have to take into account blood loss and pain and such, but it would work without worrying about HP.
What do you folks think?
- January 12, 2010 at 1:51 PM
- Zachary The First said...
@1d30: Well, it's important to remember Hit Points are supposed to model more than sheer vitality. It's also a very easy and popular way of tracking health.
I think what you've described could easily work for a number of games stressing a potentially more lethal level of combat. It's really a matter of preference. Hit Points remain a good common meeting ground for quickly understanding rules between games or editions.

Well yes of course, you don't see ME using complex critical hit tables after all :P

Ep. 2) Is There an Edge to the Universe?: It's a mystery mankind has struggled to solve since the beginning of history - is space infinite or might there be great cosmic border where everything ends? Groundbreaking cosmology and state of the art space telescopes, now suggest the Universe has a finite size and a unique shape. If this is true, there must be an edge to the Universe, and beyond that edge, there could exist a world beyond our wildest dreams.
Ep. 3) Does Time Really Exist?: Time is woven into the fabric of the universe as one of the dimensions in which we live our daily lives. But maybe it is only a brain state that we use to piece together events. Could it exist only in our minds? Your sense of time can be totally different than the person next to you. This and other theories illustrate that time is an illusion and does not really exist. The world's top physicists tackle this fundamental question, does time exist, and offer new ways to perceive the physical world.
Ep. 4) Are There More Than 3 Dimensions?: Could there be more ways to travel than back and forth, side to side and up and down? These 3 directions seem to be the only paths we can move in, but cutting edge science now professes there must be more. Unlocking these invisible pathways is the holy grail of science. Physicists believe that the answers to our most burning questions are hidden in these higher dimensions. Now armed with the most ambitious scientific instrument humanity has ever built, the brightest minds of our planet are convinced we are on the verge of unraveling the Universe's true number of dimensions... and unlocking the secrets hidden inside.
Ep. 5) Is There a Sixth Sense?: Can we perceive beyond the world detected by our five senses? Researches are diving into the hidden folds of our brains, discovering that the blind can actually see, that thoughts can fly across space and that we all may all be part of a global consciousness. What was once on the fringes of science is moving ever closer to the mainstream as neuroscientists, philosophers and physicists turn their attention to the question: Is there a Sixth Sense?
Ep. 6) Are There Parallel Universes?: Most scientists believe that you are not really you, but rather, you all. On the edge of space, buried in a black hole, or right on top of you, there could be an exact copy of yourself living a parallel reality. In those parallel worlds, you may be living your wildest dreams, or your worst nightmares. Finding them is no longer restricted to the realm of science fiction. Recent game-changing theories now suggest that if these worlds exist, intelligent life in these alternative worlds could be trying to send us messages. As scientists further unravel this astounding possibility, a new possibility emerges: the fate of our entire universe may depend on these hidden cosmic twins.
Ep. 7) How Does the Universe Work?: Human achievement has come a long way to explaining the laws of the universe. However, as we push forward we are learning that our observations of reality might not be what we think they are. Since the early 20th century, we have known that reality at the quantum level is not the same as at our visible level. But new ways of perceiving the world might allow us to unlock the secrets of the universe. Meet the scientists who are peeling back the layers of existence. It is their vital work that will give us a glimpse into the mind of God.
Ep. 8) Can We Travel Faster Than Light?: The speed of light is the speed limit of the universe...186,000 miles per second. According to Einstein, nothing can go faster, leaving the stars and distant galaxies almost impossibly out of our reach. But the dreams of star travelers are not dead. There could be ways to break the speed of light. Scientists around the world are challenging Einstein's speed limit and turning one of the most fundamental laws of physics upside down. By delving into the mystery of light, physicists are designing warp drives, hunting for wormholes, and discovering ways to teleport matter. The stars await and our chance to explore the final frontier might be within reach.
Ep. 9) Can We Live Forever?: Eternal life is a dream of humankind. But life seems programmed for death. Stars are born, mature and die. Our own sun will meet such demise. We as humans know our time here on Earth will one day expire. Death and decay seem to be the way of everything in the Universe. But what if life had no end? What if we never had to say goodbye to family and loved ones? Now with astonishing breakthroughs in biology, neuroscience, and quantum mechanics, immortality may be within our grasp. The world's leading scientists are tackling the seemingly inevitable fate of death and searching for ways to keep us alive forever.
Ep. 10) What Do Aliens Look Like?: Across the galaxy lie exotic worlds. Some are made entirely of water, others stewing with poisonous gas. What kinds of creatures thrive in these places? Would they resemble beings on Earth, or could life take on new and unexpected forms? Combining data about thousands of newly-discovered planets with our knowledge of how life evolved on Earth, exobiologists are creating their own "Book of Alien Life." Its pages are filled with flying whales, creatures with silicon blood, and living machines the size of an entire planet.

Strength is nigh useless to monks and bears. It adds a 1AP per 1STR, and a tank really should have more than enough AP whilst tanking anything that could actually kill them, thanks to vengeance,and if you really want more AP you should be after AGI anyway. In regards to rings because you get almost 1 dodge rating per agility and rings will generally have more Primary stat on them than any single secondary stat for reforging it really isn't worth it to take strength rings ever. Unless you're intentiosn is to piss of the plate wearers.
I'd assume the first priority is more maximising total damage reduction, and the second priority is for smoothing damage intake.

Edward Abbey died 24 years ago this week on March 14, 1989. In the second decade of the 21st century, his words live on. But is this the world and the West that Cactus Ed cherished and loved? Is the New West compatible with his vision of wilderness and wide open spaces?
In "Desert Solitaire," Abbey offered a unique reason for establishing wilderness. "We may need wilderness someday," he proposed, "not only as a refuge from excessive industrialism but also as a refuge from authoritarian government, from political oppression."
He warned that "technology adds a new dimension to the process," and believed (then) that the wilderness would provide escape from those kinds of Big Brother controls. For Abbey, wilderness was meant to be the vast "blank spot on the map," as Aldo Leopold longed for.
He also wrote, "A man could be a lover and defender of the wilderness without ever in his lifetime leaving the boundaries of asphalt, powerlines, and right-angled surfaces. We need wilderness whether or not we ever set foot in it. We need a refuge..."
In 2013, Abbey would not recognize the wilderness he sought to protect. Environmental groups, once dedicated to saving the wilderness that Abbey envisioned, now look at wild lands as a marketable commodity and a way to generate revenue for their own "non-profit" organizations. It's the economic value of wilderness that trumps everything else.
Environmentalists promote a swarming tourist economy. They've bastardized a favorite Abbey line: "The idea of wilderness needs no defense; it needs more defenders," and made it a Chamber of Commerce promo....the more money that can be made from the product, the greater the chance, they believe, of passing wilderness legislation. Never mind the collateral damage.
Even grassroots groups, who once worked for the protection of the land and the satisfaction that they were honest participants in "the good fight," now parse their battle cries. Their boards of directors are filled with wealthy venture capitalists and industrialists that would have had Abbey deported if they could have found a way. Together, they support a massive recreation/amenities economy that brings millions of tourists to the once remote rural West and with it, untold quantities of money and environmental devastation. Indeed, in Utah, the most powerful force for "legislative wilderness" is not SUWA or the Sierra Club or the Grand Canyon Trust. It's the Outdoor Recreation industry.
Abbey used to talk about wilderness and "a loveliness and quiet exultation." Nowadays exultation makes a lot of noise. Ed admonished us "to walk, better yet crawl, on hands and knees, over the sandstone and through the thornbush and cactus. When traces of blood begin to mark your trail you'll see something, maybe." When he talked about riding bicycles, he imagined them as a replacement for cars, not feet. He did not envision luxury "adventure tours" and hand-held guided hikes to "remote locations," barely a mile from their cars.
He wrote, "We don't go into the wilderness to exhibit our skills at gourmet cooking. We go into the wilderness to get away from the kind of people who think gourmet cooking is important."
And he didn't envision a wilderness experience that included cell phones, smartphones, GPS units, or daily uploads to Facebook ("Here's what our sunset looked like tonight! Here in the WILDERNESS!" -126 LIKES). Yet, many of these recreationists convince themselves they are the latter-day disciples of a man they know practically nothing about, or bother to know.
He wrote, "If America could be, once again, a nation of self-reliant farmers, craftsmen, hunters, ranchers and artists, then the rich would have little power to dominate others. Neither to serve nor to rule. That was the American Dream." Most New Westerners love Ed Abbey and have no idea what that means.
Abbey may have hoped, when he left this world, that his time and effort here might make a small difference, might alter the future for the better in some way. But probably not. More than likely, he saw all this coming, just as he predicted so much that has already, sadly, come to pass.
But whether the world really does go to hell or not, or whether it's already there, for godsake remember who Ed Abbey really was. As Cactus Ed pleaded, "Throw a rock at something big and glassy..what have you got to lose?"

International Conference commemorated the 20th anniversary of the dissolution of the Warsaw Pact
23.06.2011 / 16:15
The conference "Europe – Whole and Free? Two Decades Since the End of the Warsaw Pact," organized jointly by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Ministry of Defense of the Czech Republic, commemorated the 20th anniversary of the Warsaw Pact dissolution.
The Warsaw Treaty Organization was formally dissolved on July 1, 1991. In a twist of history, it took place in Prague, in the city targeted in 1968 by the only major military action the Pact had ever undertaken.
The conference took place in the Czernin Palace which hosted the act of the Warsaw Pact dissolution twenty years ago. In June, 2011, the traditional seat of the Czechoslovak and Czech Foreign Service welcomed some of the main political actors from both sides of the former Iron Curtain, who contributed to the adoption of the historical decision, as well as scholars. The invitation by Karel Schwarzenberg, Minister of Foreign Affairs and Alexandr Vondra, Minister of Defense was accepted by Władysław Bartoszewski, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Poland (1995, 2000 - 2001); Jean-Pierre Chevènement, Minister of Defense of France (1988 - 1991); Géza Jeszenszky, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Hungary (1990 - 1994); František Mikloško, President of the Slovak National Council (1990 - 1992); Boris Pankin, Ambassador to Czechoslovakia (1990 – 1991) and Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Soviet Union (1991); Malcolm Rifkind, Defense Secretary (1992 – 1995) and Foreign Secretary of the United Kingdom (1995 – 1997); Paul Wolfowitz, Undersecretary of Defense for Policy (1989 – 1993) and Deputy Secretary of Defense of the U.S.A. (2001 – 2005), and other distinguished speakers. President Václav Havel and President Michail Gorbachev sent their messages to the participants of the conference in writing.
The aim of the conference was to examine the fundamental change the Warsaw Pact dissolution brought to the European security architecture and its lasting implications. The first day of the conference discussed the past and future development of the transatlantic and Eurasian cooperation in the area of security and defense from the foreign policy perspective. The main focus was on NATO enlargement and relations between Russia and the Western World, including former members of the Warsaw Pact, now members of NATO and the European Union.

Governor Andrew Cuomo has re-ignited the debate over abortion here in New York with his Women's Equality Act. The proposal is causing problems for the fragile coalition government in the State Senate. Capital Tonight's Nick Reisman explains.
ALBANY, N.Y. -- Republicans in the State Senate have allowed votes legalizing same-sex marriage and to tighten New York's gun control laws, all measures supported by Governor Andrew Cuomo. But the popular governor's push to expand women's rights, with the Reproductive Health Act at its core, may be too far for the GOP's base.
"When I see the expansion of partial birth abortion coming from the radical left, it's an extreme measure and I don't think it's absolutely necessary," Senate Republican Leader Dean Skelos said.
Those who back the law saying the Women's Reproductive Health Act merely updates the state's abortion laws. But abortion opponents say it goes too far and after two years of largely backing Cuomo's legislative agenda, the conservative base is pushing back.
"The base is really just rising up and saying, you know what, we really do want to stand with our allies, we're anxious to stand with them on key issues, this is one of them," said Jason McGuire, Livingston County Conservative Party Chairman.
Republicans this year entered into a power-sharing agreement in the State Senate with five independent Democrats. Though the GOP is technically outnumbered in the chamber, the agreement requires both Republican Leader Dean Skelos and IDC Leader Jeff Klein to mutually agree on bills that come up for votes. Klein supports abortion rights, but said in a testy exchange with reporters that the mainline Democratic conference doesn't have the votes to pass it.
Klein said, "I think one of the things that has to be said if you're a Democrat, especially if you're a New York Democrat, you have to be pro-choice. And I've said this on numerous occasions, we need to figure out a way that this becomes a litmus test."
Democratic Senators Tim Kennedy and Ruben Diaz are both opposed to abortion, though Klein has supported Kennedy through a political action committee. Senate Minority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins says she hopes the women's agenda, which includes pay equity and tougher laws for domestic abuse, gains Republican support.
"I don't want to preclude Republicans from wanting to improve the lives of women and in context when people realize the facts and realize the hurdles that women face. I'm hoping that this will definitely be a bipartisan support of the women of New York State," Stewart-Cousins said.
Cuomo, meanwhile, unveiled Tuesday a coalition of more than 200 groups backing the Women's Equality Act.
