"Industry and agency leaders should seize on the opportunity of a new Congress to make a difference in the way things work going forward," said Bruce McConnell, Government Future's president. "There are many useful and needed changes that would make good use of the reform energy that brought this Congress to Washington." The conclusion is contained in Government Future's latest See the Future analysis, "The 110th Congress: Not for the Faint of Heart." Based on the opinions of more than 100 government and industry leaders collected through surveys, collective intelligence polls, and interviews, the report anticipates the priorities of the new Congress that are of interest to the federal information, technology, and professional services community. The report warns that the incoming Congress, in its zeal to correct perceived ethics and contracting abuses, could create the unintended consequence of harming the ability of federal agencies to perform their missions. Without concerted action, the Congressional oversight environment will cause agencies and their industry partners to "hunker down", slowing future investments and hampering mission performance. Government Futures recommends a strategy of advocating changes in policy that would streamline cross-agency collaboration, promote commercial buying practices, and create results-based incentives for public-private partnerships. By asserting that the new Congress actually presents an opportunity to make essential advances in government buying and management practices, the report is contrarian to other, more pessimistic analyses.

Sophisticated onboard technology allows beginner pilots to achieve professional results.

The RC helicopter provides a cost effective alternative to obtaining quality aerial video, which until recently, required renting a full sized helicopter or airplane. The Draganflyer's self leveling feature and anti-vibration camera system, which produces high quality video, makes it a viable alternative to a full sized helicopter. Aerial video is in demand for purposes such as surveying, real estate marketing, and inspection of hard to reach or dangerous locations. Due to the expense, noise, and scheduling problems associated with a full sized helicopter, aerial video was not always an option. Prior to the Draganflyer SAVS, mounting a video camera on a miniature RC helicopter would result in a shaky video, and would still require hiring a skilled pilot to control it. The self leveling feature, referred to as Thermal Intelligence (Ti), works by using four infrared sensors which rely on the temperature difference between the sky and ground. Using input from these sensors, the on-board CPU automatically returns the helicopter to level when the control stick is released. It will stay level until the pilot inputs a pitch or roll command. This makes the RC helicopter easy to fly, and makes professional quality aerial video available to everyone at a low cost. The Draganflyer SAVS helicopter's high quality video is possible because of the anti-vibration video camera mount which isolates the camera from any vibration present in the rest of the helicopter. The onboard wireless 2.4GHz CCD camera transmits live video to a ground base station, and uses advanced circuitry featuring several filters and independent regulated power supplies to preserve the clarity of the video signal. The base station features a Diversity video receiver which dynamically chooses the best signal in real time. Other technology used in the Draganflyer SAVS includes three piezo-gyros (similar to those used on cruise missiles) which aid in stabilization, lithium-polymer batteries which allow flight times up to 15 minutes, and a rugged carbon fiber and nylon frame. The Draganflyer SAVS weighs in at only 19 ounces and measures 30 inches, and comes completely assembled in a custom built hard case including everything needed to fly. Inevitably, helicopters crash, but the Draganflyer's carbon-fiber and nylon construction provides excellent durability. The Draganflyer SAVS requires no time-consuming setup. The Draganflyer's sophisticated design eliminates the need for 95% of the parts required by conventional remote control helicopters. A flight simulator and DVD with complete footage of assembly and training are included.

[PRWeb Oct 27, 2006] http://www.prweb.com/releases/USgovernment/Wisdomofcrowds/prweb463629.htm Thu, 2 Nov 2006 16:17:39 -0800 podcrew@extrahoop.com Government Futures, LLC, a new Web 2.0 company for the government sector, today announced its entrance into the federal market and released its first See the Future report. Entitled "Government 2.0: Are you Ready?", the report foresees a 10 to 25% drop in the federal government information technology budget in the next 36 months. Other changes highlighted in the report include a shift in buying power from CIOs to program and mission owners, and a substantial transfer of project risk to the private sector. Government Futures uses a collective intelligence approach in a Web 2.0 environment to deliver unexpected, actionable insight that enables industry and government stakeholders to anticipate and shape change. Collective Intelligence emerges from collaboration and debate among independently-deciding individuals, and can produce more accurate insights than a handful of experts. A Web 2.0 environment enables participation and community, and encourages users to add value to the information as they use it. "We formed Government Futures to help government and industry anticipate the federal business environment three-to-five years out, and to enable better decisions today to shape that future," said Bruce McConnell, president of Government Futures. "We see two trends converging: big changes in how the public sector works with and spends in the private sector, and new Web 2.0 methods of collective intelligence to help us see over the horizon. Government Futures is aimed at the spot, in Wayne Gretzky's words, 'where the puck is going to be' -- at these trends' convergence."

Entitled "Government 2.0: Are you Ready?", the report foresees a 10 to 25% drop in the federal government information technology budget in the next 36 months. Other changes highlighted in the report include a shift in buying power from CIOs to program and mission owners, and a substantial transfer of project risk to the private sector. Government Futures uses a collective intelligence approach in a Web 2.0 environment to deliver unexpected, actionable insight that enables industry and government stakeholders to anticipate and shape change. Collective Intelligence emerges from collaboration and debate among independently-deciding individuals, and can produce more accurate insights than a handful of experts. A Web 2.0 environment enables participation and community, and encourages users to add value to the information as they use it. "We formed Government Futures to help government and industry anticipate the federal business environment three-to-five years out, and to enable better decisions today to shape that future," said Bruce McConnell, president of Government Futures. "We see two trends converging: big changes in how the public sector works with and spends in the private sector, and new Web 2.0 methods of collective intelligence to help us see over the horizon. Government Futures is aimed at the spot, in Wayne Gretzky's words, 'where the puck is going to be' -- at these trends' convergence."

It is produced with the same Swiss engineering and exacting standards you expect from the Swiss and is the ultimate solution for cracked, chipped, or stained concrete floors. Swisstrax launched RIBTRAX at Osh Kosh in Wisconsin for aircraft hangars and has been supplied for many other applications namely garage floors, car dealerships, showrooms, tradeshow booths, racing pits, hospitality areas as well as to the Army National Guard. A lot of interest was created for aircraft hangars at that show. Swisstrax Interlocking Floor Tiles are an attractive and comfortable environment for airplane hangers, have excellent slip resistance when wet, can be installed quickly, and are not affected by hot tires, or most chemicals. With many colors to choose from, you can design a one-of-a-kind floor to suit your taste. These floors are easy to install, portable, require no floor preparation, (unlike epoxy systems which involve harsh chemicals and days to install) and are a cost effective alternative solution to epoxy floors. Imagine a hangar floor you can take with you to display or showcase your aircraft in your own private hangar, in a museum, at a show, race or any occasion you choose. Do you lease the hangar? No problem, just lift the floor and install it in you new facility. DIAMONDTRAX is very sporty with great gripping power and 14 different color choices. RIBTRAX is the ideal product for hangars as the tiles allow snow and water to settle through the ribs while still offering excellent grip. Simply clean the product by spraying down the surface allowing the water to drain under the tile or shop vac the surface to pull up any dirt below the surface. Randy Nelson, President of Swisstrax, Inc., indicates we will be exhibiting at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas, NV; the Copper State Regional Fly-In in Casa Grande, AZ and PRI in Orlando, FL. We will also be present at the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association meeting near their corporate headquarters in Palm Springs, CA. Swisstrax is available and distributed across the United States through their expanding network of distributors.
