text: Buy Virtual users Agent Based Monitoring Using Distributed Monitors (Agent Based Monitoring) with Agile Load A performance testing without monitoring leaves you half blind and unable to diagnose performance problems at the infrastructure level. Monitoring is vital to be able to make recommendations following a load test so here we address the need to monitor servers and infrastructure when we do not have access to them via a direct network connection. AgileLoad uses other AgileLoad installations to enable it to get around firewalls. AgileLoad tunnels monitoring data through the network or internet from the target location to the testers location. Introduction of Agent-Based Monitoring If you are watching this video, you probably got some monitoring challenges and that is probably because you go firewalls between you and your target host. So the way we got around that with AgileLoad is to introduce Agent-Based Monitoring, which enables you to tunnel monitoring information across the network or across the internet so that you don't always use things like monitoring windows machines for example. What you will need is a remote machine to monitor of course; admin access because you are going to need to install AgileLoad on to that remote machine. Now, the remote machine could be the server target itself if you want to put the AgileLoad Agent on there, it is very lightweight. Alternatively, it could be a machine sitting in the same LAN as the server that you want to monitor. So installing AgileLoad on it, you can just use the injector only setup, which is light still on this remote machine. I would probably recommend installing the full setup; simply because if you have some issues that you need to troubleshoot, it is better to have 2 AgileLoad instances, one on the target machine and of course the one that you are using on your desktop. Now between you and the target machine, there will probably be some firewall, which is why you are probably needing to do this in the first place so you need to open up port 15140 on any of the firewalls between any of the machines, so the firewall protecting your desktop and the firewall protecting the target data center. If you got any network address translation, then you need to setup port forwarding as well on your firewall. Here is our application diagram. We got our database back here, application server and web server; we have seen this before in some of the other videos, and we got AgileLoad Center. Typically, AgileLoad Center would be controlling local injectors or collectors, which could even be on the same machine or on machines in the same LAN as AgileLoad. In this case, we are going to place an AgileLoad collector remotely, potentially on another LAN in which case there might be some complex networks in between host and that machine. What we are going to need to make this work is the external IP address of the AgileLoad collector and the internal IP address, and we are going to go through that in the video just now. Heading on over to our AgileLoad Test Center Machine, we are going to launch remote desktop connection to our target. This is the machine that we are going to use to monitoring, it might in fact be the server itself. Connecting up to that and now we got the desktop there, the remote desktop. I just got in to the test tray. AgileLoad Daemon is started. Right clicking and then choosing configure. You can see that we got the list of addressee. Internal address, this is a custom address; and the NAT is the external address, so the public IP address in this case because it is synonymous to an EZ2 server that we are using. Add a remote windows performance monitor Back at the test center machine or your desktop and looking in the repository, we are going to create a windows collector and then specify the username and password and so on that we are going to need to get permission to get the performance statistics. Now the host name, it is a local host. Now we are not using this machine that we are looking at now, we are using the machine that we just look at in the remote desktop and that is because we are going to send this template across to that remote agent to do the monitoring. I am not going to click test connection here because I can't see that machine from here that is why I need my external agent. So I save it, I close it and I am going to go down to the job section and create a new job. I will call this remote windows monitor. Double click and open it up. I cancel the box that pops up asking me to add scripts because we are not running a load test at this point, and I drag and drop in my remote server 1 windows monitor into the collector section. I am going to give it a friendly name, it is the operating system, so that seems like a good name to give it; and I need to target about the injector I am using, so it is the remote injector not this injector running here. That must be started and configured in a similar way with internal and external IP addresses, but it is actually this injector. In fact the IP address is the same IP address we got from Google earlier on. So I populate that; and once we have done that, I am ready to run my job. So clicking play, it asked me to save it, so I confirm, yes. It checks the configurations and starts the job. It opens this HTTP view window, so we will close that because we are not doing anything with HTTP right now. This is for doing a load test, and we are going to shift across to the monitoring tab here, and we can see our windows folder is now ready for us to take a look at. So we double click on overview and we can see CPU, memory, and so on. There is nothing in there immediately because it posts every 30 seconds and then I am just showing you now through some of the tabs we got relating to the technology that we are monitoring and really the anomaly detector is something that is going to help you make sense of that. Add a .net performance collector The next thing I want to do is add another job on the fly, a .net collector. So it uses the same mechanism. We still have the same issues getting information across internets. So just give it that a name, in the same way that I did with the windows collector, double clicking and opening up. I gave it the host name, which again is local host or the internal IP address using the remote machine and I gave it the access credential. Again, I am not clicking test connection. I am just going to save this. Once I finished, I dragged and dropped it into my monitoring job. I am going to give it another friendly name, application server and start it. It then starts the job and then if we click across to the monitoring tab, we can now see an additional folder for .net. Double click on that, we can then get information relating to health of the .net processes running on our remote server. If I just drag down up a little bit, you should be able to see some graphs come through once it has done its firsts couple of posts. So that is it. We can stop them there if you want or stop the job and confirm that we are going to stop it and it pulls the results back from the remote machine and then the monitoring tab goes empty. We move across to the results tab and we can see our monitoring session is then stalled. So of course you would run this a lot longer and of course in parallel with a load test, and then these results, I mentioned before the anomaly detector, there are some videos on the anomaly detector, this can help you find bottlenecks once you finished your load test. So the last thing that I want to show you is the Daemon that we got setup on here, which I am going to right click on and choose configure, and you will see we have the internal IP address of this machine and then the external IP address. Now, I need to change this down again because I used a dynamic IP address on this machine. Remote monitoring Check List AgileLoad on Remote Machine Can be actual server or a machine on the same LAN as the target server you wish to monitor Daemon must be running (green gazelle) - Daemon must be configured with internal and external / public IP address AgileLoad on your machine (TestCenter) Daemon must be running (green gazelle) Daemon must be configured with internal and external / public IP address Collector / Monitor profile must specify 'localhost' or '127.0.0.1' or the INTERNAL IP address of the machine that is to be monitored Firewalls / routers All firewalls must allow traffic through port 15140 (or if not using the default settings the port that you have configured). If using network address translation (NAT) then firewalls must be configured to forward external traffic arriving on port 15140 to port 15140 on the internal address of the AgileLoad agent Advanced Tutorials > Video Tutorial > Agent Based Monitoring Print this page - Go to top of page

This film is both the hardest and most frightening film you will ever see, it is also the most important film that has been made this year! It tells the story about us, our planet and how we are going to die if we don`t do anything with the global warming issue NOW. We got 5 years to do it, and everyone needs to take part in this. If not it`s welcome to the end! In this film they also tell what needs to be done in order to save the planet.
This film does not go normal on cinema but was a one night event in USA the 21 of september and the rest of the world 22 september. BUT there is a list of places where this film will be shown on the website. AND when the DVD film comes you can have your own screening.
And if you fly one time from USA to England you have used your total CO2 budget for the next 3-4 years.

When Sony Online Entertainment said it would shut down Star Wars: Galaxies by the end of the year, many teeth were gnashed and many garments were rent. A lot of people, thinking SOE failed to consider this, postulated about taking the game to a free-to-play model, and voila, the orphanage is saved! If only they wanted to save it, right?
Well, SOE and LucasArts both considered that long ago, smart guys. And while hypotheses are free, putting them into effect costs money. LucasArts said as much in a statement to GamePro, who went asking about the free-to-play chances of the eight-year-old MMO.
"[T]hat model just isn't financially viable," LucasArts told GamePro. "Changing the business model for an experience like Star Wars Galaxies takes a major investment and overhauling of the existing infrastructure of the game. We're unfortunately at a point in our life cycle where a change of this magnitude is just not possible. The harsh reality is that we've reached a point where the game is no longer a sustainable business."

Sorry I'm not sure if I'm aloud to tell all the newbies stuff like that, do i need special permission?Or can I help them out anytime?
Anyway, on with the question!
Sorry I quoted because it wouldn't let me copy/paste.Ally_Cat wrote:If you had a 'vampire' power, what would it be, and why? Consider whether you would be a 'vegetarian' vamp or not, and what you would use your power for. Also, try and make your power somewhat realistic (none of this, I AM ALL-POWERFUL!!!! stuff)!
I think my power would be to kind of "steal" other people's powers while I'm around them.What I mean is that if I were with Edward, for example, than I could read minds while I was around him, and not just his mind but everyone's minds, just like he does.I wouldn't be protected from his mind-reading though, and he could still read other people's minds like he always does.So I guess "steal" isn't really the right word here, I would more like duplicate their power for myself. Of course if they left, then I wouldn't be able to have their power anymore, I have to be near them to "take" it.I picked this for my power (Ooh, i sound really formal ) because when I'm around some people I tend to take on some of their traits (and no it's not peer pressure or just because I'm a hopeless push-over, well, maybe the fact that I'm a hopeless push-over has something to do with it). I kind of turn more like that person that I'm around for a given period of time, so as a vampire I think that's how it would be reflected. As for being vegetarian, I think I would try, but I might slip.A lot.I'd be kind of like Jasper but even worse.Oh I totally forgot to tell you what I'd use my power for!I think mostly for personal entertainment but it would be realy useful in a battle too, and depending on who's power I have than I could protect or kill whoever!

WASHINGTON/BOSTON - A dozen people were killed in Monday's shooting rampage at the Washington Naval Yard. The three women and nine men ranged in age from 46 to 73 and included retirees, parents, a bird lover and a divorcee.
Here are some details of their lives.
The mother of two loved animals and nature, and she liked to help count bluebirds for a local wildlife refuge in her spare time, her family said.
A financial analyst from Woodbridge, Virginia, Gaarde was an avid fan of the Washington Capitals hockey team and a season ticket holder for more than 25 years. The Chicago native had lived in the D.C. area for 38 years.
Her children are grown - ages 26 and 33, a family member in Minnesota told local media. The relative said Gaarde worked on military contracts at the Navy Yard and was nearing retirement.
In a statement, her family said: "Kathy was a caring daughter, fantastic mother, wife (of 38 years) and best friend for 43 years. She loved her animals and was a blue bird counter for the local refuge."
The family asked that donations be made in her memory to the Virginia Branch of the Humane Society.
Gerald Read was devoted to his job as a project manager in information assurance at the Navy Yard and also to animals, said his wife of 35 years, Cathy.
"We have four dogs - three Labs and an Irish Setter - and they are the life of the family," she said. "He always had a really good life-work balance."
Six years ago, the Alexandria, Virginia couple started a professional pet care company called Biscuit Break Pet Service, and their daughter now runs the business.
Read was a Civil War history buff and would watch battle re-enactments at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, his wife said.
They met when he was in college and she was a senior in high school, she said.
On the day of the shooting, Cathy Read said when she had not heard from her husband by 5 p.m., she began to worry.
"Then there was a knock at the door, and I thought it was him," she said.
Instead, it was someone coming to tell her that her husband was dead.
The Waldorf, Maryland, resident came from a large religious family that spent the hours after the shooting waiting for news, praying and reading the Bible. According to the Washington Post, the family gathered at the home of her parents, both in their 80s, in Prince George's County.
Frasier, who was unmarried, worked on automated information systems and security of the network and information systems at Naval Sea Systems Command.
She received a Master's and Bachelor's degree from Strayer University, an online school that also has bricks and mortar campuses.
The oldest victim, Johnson was about to celebrate his 74th birthday next month, his family said. His relatives were planning a big gathering, as they did every year, said daughter Megan Johnson, 42.
Johnson, who was known as "J.J.," had three other adult daughters and 10 grandchildren, with an 11th due in November. He had four stepchildren.
A resident of Derwood, Maryland, Johnson lived with his wife Judy, whom he married eight and half years ago.
Employed as a civilian contractor, he served as a logistics analyst at the Navy Yard.
"Known for his infectious smile, he never said a bad thing about anyone. He would want us to forgive the shooter, because that's how he was - a forgiving person," his daughter said in an email. "He loved to work and has always worked. He loved the interaction with the people and wanted to keep on working."
Newly divorced, Proctor had two sons - 15-year-old Kendull, who attends Thomas Stone High School in Waldorf, Maryland, and Kenneth Jr., 17, who graduated high school in May and joined the US Army.
"I am always over-thinking and letting my thoughts evolve on events that have less impact on my goals than what's really necessary," Proctor wrote on Facebook recently. "I know now to eliminate all that really don't exist in reality and bring forth what will allow me to be me. GOD!"
His younger son wrote on Facebook in March:
"Sitiing (sic) around with my family. Even when mom and dad arnt (sic) together, we still have a great time," he wrote.
Proctor worked as a utilities operation foreman at the Naval Facilities Engineering Command. According to his Facebook page, Proctor was graduated from La Plata High School in Maryland in 1984.
He was the youngest victim.
The retired US Naval officer who lived in Annandale, Virginia, never seemed to slow down, his family said.
Even on cold winter days, Bodrog could be found outside "in shorts and his trademark Boston Bruins jersey, walking his dog and helping shovel all the driveways of his elderly neighbors," his family wrote in an obituary.
Bodrog and his wife of 25 years, Melanie, had three daughters - Isabel, 23; Sophie, 17; and Rita, 16.
He spent more than two decades in the military, specializing in amphibious operations as a Surface Warfare Officer and later helped the service design and purchase naval ships as a military contractor, the obituary said.
A Sunday school teacher, he also helped in a youth outreach program at the Immanuel Bible Church in Springfield, Virginia.
"Marty was a source of great inspiration to his family and friends - those of us that were lucky enough to know Marty are better people for it," his family said.
The grandfather of nine, who lived in Southeast Washington, moved and installed office furniture in federal government buildings. On Monday he was working at the Naval Yard.
A witness told the Washington Post that Daniels was shot in the back as he and a colleague were frantically pushing an elevator button to escape the gunman.
"All he did was go to work," his son, Arthur Jr., told the Post. "That was his only crime."
Pandit grew up in Mumbai, India, attended a Calcutta university and moved to the United States in the mid-1970s.
He earned a second undergraduate degree in marine engineering, at the University of Michigan, and then a master's degree, friends said.
"He was part of the American dream," said Satish Misra, a friend and neighbor of 22 years. "He was a very kind and gentle man."
Pandit often gave money to panhandlers, his friend said. "He would always reach into his pocket. He wanted to share what he had, what God had given him."
He had two sons and a granddaughter.
"They are devastated," Misra said.
Pandit was a familiar sight as he walked his golden retriever, Bailey, near his home in the leafy suburb of North Potomac, Maryland.
Arnold, who lived in Lorton, Virginia, was a Navy veteran. He graduated from the US Naval Academy and served for 29 years before retiring as a captain last year. He recently joined a government consulting firm.
Knight had just started a new position this month at Naval Sea Systems Command, where she had worked since 2009, a family spokesman said.
She also was an adjunct professor at Northern Virginia Community College. This semester she was teaching two classes - one in software design and one in spreadsheet software.
Originally from Fayetteville, North Carolina, Knight moved to the area about five years ago and lived in Reston, Virginia. She had two daughters and enjoyed spending time with her family and friends, the family spokesman said.
Married and with two college-age children, Kohler lived in a waterfront house in Tall Timbers, Maryland, on a cove along the Potomac River.
In a promotional video by the local Rotary Club, Kohler can be seen clad in a robe and crown to direct the club's annual Oyster Fest.
He worked as an independent contractor.
Mike Ridgell, of Westminster, Maryland, was a veteran of the Maryland state police, according to his page on Facebook, where his daughters and other family members posted tributes and photographs.
"Can't believe you were one of the 12 taken from us yesterday, kind of feels like a dream that we are all waiting to wake up from," wrote Kelly Robins, who identified herself as his cousin, on her Facebook page.
"But we all know you are in a better place and watching over each of your family members. Your laugh, smile & all the memories will help us get through this terrible time," she wrote.

Article content
Shelly Sterling will seek an emergency court order confirming her as owner of the Los Angeles Clippers in a bid to block her estranged husband from having any say in the team's $2 billion sale, a source with knowledge of the matter said on Tuesday.
Donald Sterling, 80, was banned for life by the National Basketball Association in April and fined $2.5 million after a leaked tape of him making racist remarks to a girlfriend prompted an outcry from fans, players and sponsors of the team.
The league has tentatively approved a deal by Shelly Sterling, co-owner of the franchise, to sell the club for $2 billion to Steve Ballmer, the former Microsoft Corp chief executive.
At one point, Sterling said he supported the move, but he declared late on Monday the Clippers were not for sale, and that while he realized it might be unpopular, he would fight to keep the club he built over 33 years.
Sterling's lawyer, Maxwell Blecher, said on Tuesday he expected his client would eventually challenge the clause in the family trust that gave his wife control of the team when doctors deemed Sterling incapable of managing normal business affairs.
Last month, two neurologists found Sterling to have Alzheimer's disease, which triggered the clause handing control of the family trust that owns the team to Shelly Sterling.
According to the clause, Donald Sterling would not have standing to block the sale. The deal has been tentatively approved by the league, but must be voted on by owners.
David Cornwell, a sports lawyer with law firm Gordon Rees Scully Mansukhani, said that while Sterling's lawsuit did not hold much legal weight, it could cause Ballmer to have second thoughts about the sale.
"I don't know if I'd go through with it at this point," said Cornwell. "Two billion dollars is quite a bit to put on the line to have it subject to the whim of a district court judge."
Representatives of the Clippers had no comment on Sterling's latest comments, in which he apologized for his remarks but said he never wanted to sell the team and that the NBA had acted against him illegally and in haste.
The NBA did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Sterling has sued the league and its commissioner, Adam Silver, for at least $1 billion in damages, alleging they relied on evidence inadmissible in a California court to oust him.
Silver says Sterling's lawsuit against the league is the only obstacle to the sale of the Clippers.
Marshall Grossman, a lawyer who represented the Los Angeles Dodgers baseball team in its ownership battle between Frank McCourt and his ex-wife, Jamie McCourt, said if it was true that Sterling was not mentally competent, there could be a petition filed for a court-appointed conservator to take over and represent his interests.
"He should take the money and exit gracefully," he said.

Frozen Egg
Name: unnamed
Species: Lucinis Bird
Birthday: Wednesday, February 15, 2012
Owner: Kestrad
A large beak has punctured the side of this pink egg.
Lucinis birds are beautiful creatures, but unfortunately their personalities do not match their appearances. These feisty birds love nothing better than to argue with one another. About what, no one is quite sure. Lucinis birds don't allow their inability to speak stop them from being rude to humans, either. Their expressions are scathing, and they rarely offer their help. It's pointless to give a lucinis an order; the only way to get them to do anything is to spend several hours praising them, or to bribe them. Their help is often asked for, despite this. Lucinis birds are stubborn creatures, and though they are not the most intelligent of species, will work at a problem or spell nonstop until they have found the answer. It's best not to give a lucinis a truly difficult project, as they will not stop working until done. There are some birds who have been working on complex theories for years, though you wouldn't know it. They appear to be napping, or busy soaking up the sun, though they are really deep in thought. These pink birds wander from the lake to the stream, and very particular about which areas belong to them. If they believe their territory has been invaded, they'll charge after the intruder, wings extended with every intention of ending the offender's life. Luckily, lucinis birds are more beautiful than strong, and though they run fast, can be driven off with a stick. Some say it's one of the reasons staffs have become so popular among the students lately. The only times these birds are sweet is when they are alone with their mates. Lucinis birds fight with their mates as well, but in such an affectionate way that anyone can tell it's only play.

I was saved through an Arminian church but fairly recently I have come to understand the truth and grace that anchors Reformed theology and Calvinism. But I still have one question that I was not able to get an intelligible answer to: If part of man's chief end is to enjoy God forever, what about the unsaved? Sure, God is glorified just to send them to hell, but they will never enjoy Him. Can you help me understand this?
Praise God for His saving grace in your life and His sanctifying work causing you to grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
You have, I think, put your finger on the key to solving your dilemma - the understanding of "end" in Shorter Catechism #1. The Catechism there is speaking in terms of God's revealed will for us all (see questions 2 and 3).
In His Word God reveals the glorious yet mysterious truth that He has foreordained all that comes to pass (Ephesians 1:11), and that His eternal decree even has a purpose for the wicked (Proverbs 16:4) - which you clearly understand. God's predestination of all things is a fact revealed in Scripture.
But what things God has predestined is not revealed in Scripture (except for the important contours of His plan of salvation and judgment - the coming of the Messiah, His second coming, the resurrection, the Judgment, etc.). The particulars of predestination unfold moment by moment before our eyes and in our lives under the providence of God.
Deuteronomy 29:29 provides us with an important distinction when the Lord says through Moses: "The secret things belong to the Lord our God, but the things revealed belong to us and to our sons forever, that we may observe all the words of this law." Based on this (and other Scriptures) we properly distinguish between God's secret will (His decree for all things, including the eternal destinies of the saved and the lost) and God's revealed will (by which our sin is exposed and the lives of His redeemed people are guided). By His "revealed will" we mean all that He has spoken to direct us, first to repentance for sin and faith in Christ that we might be saved, and then how to live in obedience to His commands in gratitude for His saving mercy to us in Christ.
It seems to me that Shorter Catechism #1 is speaking of God's revealed will. Had Adam kept the covenant the Lord made with him, he would have glorified and enjoyed God. That was the promise implied in their Garden-fellowship, the tree of life and also the threat of death.
In overthrowing God's rule, transgressing God's revealed will in the probationary command (don't eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil), Adam also abandoned God's (implied) revealed purpose for his existence - to glorify and enjoy God.
In the unfolding of God's secret will, it is His work of salvation which brings elect sinners back to Himself and back to that revealed purpose for our being. Only in Christ and by the work of God's Spirit in us are we able to fulfill our calling (revealed will) to glorify God AND enjoy Him forever.
That the non-elect will glorify God and not enjoy Him (as you point out) will be part of the ultimate fulfillment of His secret will, His eternal decree. But does not contradict SC #1 any more than this: God commands all men everywhere to repent (Acts 17:30 - revealed will), but only the elect will repent (secret or decretive will).
I hope this helps. Feel free to follow up and I will do my best to answer further questions.
"Questions and Answers" is a weekly feature of the OPC website. The answers come from individual ministers in the Orthodox Presbyterian Church expressing their own convictions and do not necessarily represent an "official" position of the Church, especially in areas where the Standards of the Church (the Scriptures and the Westminster Confession of Faith and Catechisms) are silent.
The questions come from individuals like yourself. If you have questions about biblical and theological matters, you are invited to send them by e-mail by using the "Pose a Question" link on the OPC home page or by clicking here.
At least one new question is posted each week, so there should always be something new here for you to read. (For those people who would like to look at previous questions and answers, they will continue to be available as well.)
The purpose of the OPC website's "Questions and Answers" is to respond to biblical and theological questions. Matters of church discipline, disputes, or debates go beyond the scope of our work. We recommend that you present your concerns in these areas to the appropriate judicatory. In most cases this will be to a local pastor, elder, or session. We do not want the website to replace personal involvement in, or commitment to, the local, visible church.
While we will respond to every serious questioner, we are not bound to give a substantive answer to every question, should we deem the question to be beyond the scope of our purpose or our own ability to answer.
You will receive an answer by e-mail. Please be patient as many of our respondents are busy pastors. The response to your question may take up to two (2) weeks. Some of the questions submitted will be chosen to be posted here, along with the corresponding answers.
Note that the "Questions and Answers" posted on the site have been editedall personal references are removed, Scripture references or from some source may be added, and sometimes portions are expandedto make the questions and answers more useful to a larger audience.

Elements to encourage the achievement of the 2020 goals include continued support schemes for electricity production from renewables, introduction of a mandatory share of renewable energy in district heating systems, simplifying of procedures for investments in renewables, introduction of incentives and appropriate financial mechanisms, and measures for research and development and education and training.
Currently, the guaranteed purchase price for electricity from renewables is EUR95.38/MWh. But there is no installed wind capacity and no wind projects in the pipeline.
By 2020, the installed renewable energy capacity will reach almost 1.7GW, with 105MW from wind. Production will total 6,126GWh a year, of which 190GWh will come from wind. The guaranteed purchase price for electricity produced from wind power will be EUR95.38/MWh.

Bill Deane is a former senior research associate at the Baseball Hall of Fame. For more than three decades, he's been predicting who'll make it into the HOF, who won't, and what their vote percentages will be. On borderline cases—those within 10 percent of the 75-percent cutoff—he's batting .806. So who does Deane predict will be making a speech at Cooperstown next summer?
Greg Maddux. And that's it.
Deane has Maddux getting in with a whopping 94 percent of the vote. But everyone else—the really awesome steroids guys, the really awesome clean guys—missing out. He's got Glavine, at 67 percent, the only player even within 10 percent of the cutoff. He predicts Frank Thomas to garner 63 percent of the vote. And then it's just a descending trail of sadness, all the way down to Mike Mussina, one of the best pitchers of his generation, barely staying on the ballot at seven percent.
Deane doesn't share his methodology, and we can't check all his past results (though he was pretty spot-on last year), so you're not obligated to respect his predictions any more than, say, your own. But this is a fairly realistic-sounding worst-case scenario for the Hall: The single most stacked ballot that's ever existed, and everyone save one comes up short. If this does come to pass, will there be anyone left who doesn't believe the system is broken?

– Changes Enhance Maxima's Longstanding Position as the Premium Sports Sedan for Driving Enthusiasts –
The new 2007 Nissan Maxima, which is scheduled to go on sale in early summer 2006, elevates Maxima's position as Nissan's flagship sedan with a redesigned exterior, a greatly refined interior and the addition of new, available technology features. Another significant change is the adoption of the smooth, efficient Nissan Xtronic CVT™ (Continuously Variable Transmission) in place of a traditional automatic transmission design on all models.
"As our premium model, Maxima reflects the company's most advanced technology – including the CVT transmission, our award-winning VQ-series V6 and standard Intelligent Key," said Brad Bradshaw, vice president and general manager, Nissan Division. "Of special note among the many changes for 2007 is the new interior, which has a richer, higher quality look and feel to go with Maxima's always powerful performance."
An Enhanced Exterior
Key changes and enhancements for the 2007 Maxima begin with the redesigned exterior, which evolves the classic Maxima performance coupe-like silhouette with its wedge-shaped front, broad arched beltline, distinctive C-pillar design with extensions and high rear deck.
The 2007 Maxima's new front grille, hood, bumper and headlights give the front end a more contemporary appearance, balancing the sporty look of the deep front valance and large wheel openings. The headlights now include built-in cornering lights, while the fog lights have been moved to the front bumper. Xenon headlights are optional on the 3.5 SE and standard on the 3.5 SL model.
Other exterior changes include the use of more aggressive side sills and a more prominent rear spoiler (standard on the SE model), a new rear bumper design with available Rear Sonar System and redesigned dual tailpipe finishers.
Maxima's dynamic performance stance is accented by new 17-inch (3.5 SL) and 18-inch (3.5 SE) 7-spoke aluminum-alloy wheels.
The 2007 Maxima is available in a choice of eight exterior colors: Winter Frost, Super Black, Majestic Blue, Sonoma Sunset and new colors Radiant Silver, Pebble Beach, Precision Gray and Dark Slate.
A New, Refined Interior
Maxima's interior enhancements are equally aggressive, adding a higher level of quality, luxury and sportiness to match the revised exterior. The instrument panel features a redesigned center stack with improved control ergonomics and a new Fine Vision Meter gauge display for easier readability. The number of buttons and controls has been reduced and the Human Machine Interface (HMI) enhanced with a more intuitive feeling.
Comfort and convenience additions include standard Intelligent Key and auxiliary input jack and available 6-disc in-dash CD autochanger with mp3 capability.
The seats offer larger shoulder bolsters and a new, sporty sew pattern and the sliding center armrest has been redesigned for greater comfort and convenience. Simulated leather door panels and cowl finisher replace fabric surfaces on models with leather-appointed seats (standard on 3.5 SL, optional on 3.5 SE) and integrated chromed accents have been added to the transmission shift lever plate and door panels. Brushed aluminum trim is used on areas of the 3.5 SE, while a new wood tone trim is utilized on the 3.5 SL.
"The Maxima interior has a more upscale appearance, without losing any of its traditional sporty character," said Bradshaw. "It delivers on the promise of driver-oriented performance, but adds more comfort for the passengers, a higher overall quality feel and more advanced features."
The 2007 Maxima again offers a standard SkyView™ glass-paneled roof, which creates an open environment for front and rear passengers while maintaining a solid roof structure. The SkyView is a single elongated rectangular-shaped glass panel that stretches from the front of the roof to the back and comes with sliding sunshades to block out sunlight when desired. A traditional power sliding glass sunroof is optionally available in place of the SkyView.
Other interior features include illuminated steering wheel controls, available factory-installed satellite radio and available Bluetooth® Hands-Free Phone System. The Bluetooth system helps the driver to maintain focus on the road ahead without the distraction often met with hand held cell phone usage.
Maxima also offers a dot-matrix center display screen (non-Navigation System) that provides HVAC, audio system and trip computer functions in one central location, dual-zone automatic temperature control, rear air conditioning vents, sun visors with vanity mirrors and leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob, standard 8-way power driver's seat (4-way power passenger seat on 3.5 SL) with available entry/exit feature.
Also available is a Bose® premium audio system with 8 speakers, AM/FM/6-disc in-dash CD changer, speed-sensitive auto volume control and available Nissan DVD-based navigation system with 7-inch color display. Heated front seats are standard on 3.5 SL and optionally available on 3.5 SE.
Three interior colors are offered again for 2007: Café Latté, Frost and Charcoal.
A Tradition of Exhilarating Performance
The heart of the new Maxima remains its powerful, award-winning 3.5-liter DOHC 24-valve V6 engine, now rated at 255 horsepower* and 252 lb-ft of torque.
The engine features a modular engine design with microfinished crank journals and cam lobes, molybdenum coated lightweight pistons, a resin intake collector, digital knock control, six individual coils (one per spark plug) and a cross-flow coolant pattern. Also utilized are Continuously Variable Valve Timing Control (CVTCS), variable induction system, a silent timing chain and electronically controlled throttle.
All 2007 Maximas come equipped with a standard Xtronic CVT™ with manual mode, which is a sportier version of the unit utilized on the Nissan Murano. The Xtronic CVT is designed to create a true synergy between engine and transmission with smooth, responsive and efficient operation.
Nissan remains the industry leader in CVTs, with three separate CVT designs in production. More than just the efficiency advantages of CVT over conventional automatic transmissions, CVTs offers owners, as studies of Murano drivers have shown, real benefits in terms of smooth, responsive, trouble-free performance. CVTs will also be offered in the 2007 Altima, Sentra and Versa.
The 2007 Maxima also features a standard Traction Control System (TCS) and optional Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC).
Maxima's responsive handling comes from a 4-wheel independent suspension design. The strut front suspension features coil springs and stabilizer bar, while the multi-link independent rear suspension offers outstanding stability by minimizing camber change during cornering. The rear shocks and springs are separated for reduced friction and the shock is in line with the center of the rear wheels, providing better damping and less harshness.
Braking is provided by standard 4-wheel disc brakes with a 4-channel, 4-sensor, 4-wheel Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) with Electronic Brake force Distribution (EBD) and Brake Assist (BA). Steering is an engine-speed-sensitive power rack-and-pinion design.
The 3.5 SE model offers standard 18-inch aluminum-alloy wheels and V-rated P245/45R18 tires. Maxima 3.5 SL features 17-inch aluminum-alloy wheels with H-rated P225/55R17 tires.
Advanced Safety Features
The 2007 Maxima comes equipped with standard Advanced Air Bag System (AABS) with dual-stage front supplemental air bags, front seat side-impact supplemental air bags for chest protection) and roof-mounted curtain side-impact air bags for front and rear outboard occupant head protection.
Also standard are front-seat Active Head Restraints, 3-point rear seat belts for all seating positions, front seat belts with adjustable upper anchors, pretensioners and load limiters, emergency inside trunk release, Zone Body construction with front and rear crushable zones, LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren) child seat anchors and tether system and Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS).
Models and Options
The 2007 Maxima is available in two well-equipped models, the 3.5 SE and 3.5 SL.
A number of options and packages are available, including a Premium Audio Package, with a Bose audio system with 8 speakers and AM/FM/6CD, RDS, speed sensitive volume control and pre-wired for satellite radio; Sensory Package which includes the Premium Audio Package, plus leather-appointed seats, 4-way power passenger seat, heated front seats and mirrors and digital compass.

Perdue Primary Win a Victory for North Carolina's Children and Public Education
Support of NEA members instrumental in election outcome
WASHINGTON - May 07, 2008 -Through unprecedented grassroots organizing and mobilization, local members of the North Carolina Association of Educators and the National Education Association turned out in record numbers to vote for Lt. Gov. Bev Perdue in North Carolina's May 6 primary to select a Democratic candidate to face Republican Pat McCrory for governor in November.
"Today we celebrate a victory for North Carolina's children and public education," says NEA President Reg Weaver. "NCAE and NEA members let their voices be heard in this election. Lt. Gov. Bev Perdue has been a long-time advocate for public education, ensuring that our children have the resources they need to succeed and that North Carolina's public schoolteachers receive professional pay. Bev Perdue has supported public education, and, today, NEA members were able to return that support."
Perdue, a former public schoolteacher with a doctorate in education administration, captured the Democratic nomination by defeating North Carolina State Treasurer Richard Moore.
The NCAE and NEA members in North Carolina ran a sophisticated program of on-the-ground activities to mobilize Association members to take part in the Democratic primary. Over 200,000 individual direct mail pieces were sent to separate targeted membership groups.
Other activities included targeted phone calls, emails, text messages, special activist newsletters, as well as on-one-one communications among and between Association members to build voter turnout in support of Perdue's primary campaign. NCAE and NEA members engaged in volunteer activity in record numbers, over 1,000 grassroots volunteers, for the Perdue campaign.
NEA's PAC, the NEA Fund for Children and Public Education, also supported Perdue through Internet blogging about Perdue's record on public education issues and by running independent television ads in Wilmington, Greenville, Asheville and Raleigh.
Perdue has been instrumental in improving teacher pay in North Carolina from 43rd to 21st in the nation. She led efforts to create the Teacher Academy, a professional development program funded by the North Carolina General Assembly, and in providing funds to help North Carolina educators gain National Board Certification. North Carolina ranks first in nationally certified teachers. Perdue also has been a strong supporter of early childhood education programs, high school reform initiatives and efforts to make college affordable for all North Carolina students.
"North Carolina's public school employees made it clear on Tuesday that we intend to make public education a priority in every election this year," adds Weaver. "And we intend to do everything necessary to energize and mobilize our members in every election in every state from now through November."
# # #The National Education Association is the nation's largest professional employee organization, representing 3.2 million elementary and secondary teachers, higher education faculty, education support professionals, school administrators, retired educators and students preparing to become teachers.
