BRIDGEWATER - And, now, for people too lazy to try on shirts at the mall: Introducing "measured reality." Bridgewater Commons will unveil "the fitting room of the future," featuring a 10-second "non-invasive" body scan that records 200,000 data points bouncing off the skin of the shopper. The information is then matched with clothes in stock to ascertain the right fit. Expect pants to start at $250; someone has to pay for this gimmick.

NEWARK - If Mayor Cory Booker and other city and state officials representing Newark are truly serious about saving UMDNJ, now is the time to act. The university system is to be dismantled July 1.

Chris Christie's proposed budget goes under the microscope today when the Democrat-led Assembly Budget Committee hears politically-charged testimony. This will be the first of three hearings planned, focusing this time on issues related to children's, family and senior citizens issues, and health and human services. Expect many to question why the Governor is pushing for income tax cuts for his wealthy Mendham pals, while ignoring the state's more fragile population. Democrats will also use the hearings to highlight their own plan to cut taxes - which excludes the Mendham types.
