"Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need."
Hebrews 4:16 (NIV UK)
In an extraordinary letter from Martin Luther to his friend Philip Melanchthon, Luther admonishes him to "Be a sinner, and let your sins be strong, but let your trust in Christ be stronger, and rejoice in Christ who is the victor over sin, death, and the world."
At first glance, that advice doesn't seem to ring true. But in order to understand Luther's advice, we need to look more closely at the context of what he's saying. Luther wasn't prescribing sinning as an action. Instead, he was owning up to the fact that we should be courageous in spite of our sins, setting aside the fear that God will withdraw his grace from us. His letter amounts to a reminder: No matter what you've done, if you are in Christ, grace is always stronger than sin. Even if you sin 10,000 times a day, our sins would be powerless in the face of God's overwhelming mercy. This isn't to say that living rightly doesn't matter. Paul was quick to address this when he asked: "What shall we say then? Are we to continue in sin that grace may abound? By no means! How can we who died to sin still live in it?" (Romans 6:1 ESVUK).
As followers of Jesus Christ, we are called to imitate Christ, to love God and love our neighbour. But let's face it, as long as we're alive in the world we're going to fall into sin. But we shouldn't let the fear of this eventuality overwhelm us so that we lose sight of God's faithfulness. Instead, let's confess our sin to God, and believe in His grace all the more. Karl Barth put it this way: "scripture prohibits us from taking sin more seriously or even as seriously as grace."
Every Christian knows that it's not good to sin. But many believers need to be reminded of how to deal with sin once we fall into it. What's the answer? Confess your sins fully before God, ask earnestly for forgiveness, approach the throne of grace with confidence, and trust boldly that His grace is ready, waiting and will be more than enough.
Merciful Father, you accept us as sinners and in our brokenness. Even as we try to move on we so often falter and fail. And then we rely on your great love and continued acceptance of us through your Son and his intervention on our behalf as our High Priest. Thank you for everything. Through Jesus Christ we pray.

"And the king will answer them, 'Truly I tell you, just as you did it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, you did it to me.'"
Matthew 25:40 (NRSV
When I think what God has done for me I get excited. God loved me so much that He called me out of my evil ways and gave me the chance to choose life rather than death. He sent His only begotten Son to pay the penalty for my sins. When I stop and think about it and how God must love me, I shout WOW. God loves me, "hallelujah!"
The sense of joy I feel influences what I do. On a regular basis as a church group we go out to sing at local care homes. During these visits I do get a bit excited because I know we are doing what God wants us to do. In singing the hymns to the residents we are also giving them a message from God. We can tell by their faces and their body language that many are happy that we are there. Some have shared that when they were younger they went to church, unfortunately, they can no longer go and this brings back pleasant memories. Sometimes they ask when we have finished singing if we can say a prayer.
When you help someone who may be less fortunate or in need I think God is well pleased. It also has a positive effect on the giver. Last Christmas time we were able to share a meal and give a gift to a lady. I share this to encourage us all that there are many opportunities to serve and see someone's face light up when you do a good, God-inspired deed for them. It makes your heart melt. Again, I felt excited when I left her feeling happy.
Father, truly you are good. As you bless us, help us to look for ways to share with others. In Jesus' name.

"The Jews who gathered around him…"
John 10:24 (NIVUK)
Nowadays people gather around famous and well-known celebrities just to get a glimpse of them or to hear what they might say. It was the same at the time of Jesus, and often crowds would surround him and also follow him as he went from one place to another.
In John 10 Jesus was walking in Solomon's Colonnade in the Temple area at the time of the Feast of Dedication. The Jews gathered around him, and began to ask him questions. They were so incensed by what he had to say that they sought to stone him, but Jesus "escaped their grasp" (v 39). Afterwards "many people came to him" (v 41), and later, after he had raised Lazarus from the dead, "a large crowd of Jews found out that Jesus was there and came, not only because of him but also to see Lazarus" (12:9). "Now the crowd that was with him when he called Lazarus from the tomb and raised him from the dead continued to spread the word" (12:17).
Jesus explained that those who believe in him would gather together. Faith in Jesus would be a shared experience both with the non-believer and the believer. In Matthew 16 Jesus told his disciples that they should beware of the leaven (false teachings) of the Pharisees and Sadducees that was taught when the Jews gathered in the synagogues, and then he said that he would create his own gathering of those called out by the Spirit. "I will build my church", he said (Matthew 16:18).
By assembling together, Christians can encourage one another and listen to the expounding of Jesus' teachings. This became more relevant as time went on, especially at times of persecution and difficulty. Thus we read in Hebrews 10:24-25, "And let us consider how we may spur one another on towards love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more so as you see the Day approaching."
The same need exists for us today: let's make the effort to go to church, to gather together and to be taught by Jesus.
Great Father, thank you for the gift of church, and help us, as we able, to gather together often, to listen together to the teachings of your son, Jesus. In his name.

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him."
John 3:16-17 (NIV)
How many of you like being left out of something? My home town is rugby mad, home of the Scarlets, but I was never the sporty type. I remember when they were picking teams for anything, I was always left until one of the last, once all the sporty ones and popular ones had been chosen.
We all like being included, but when it comes to church, people can take a totally contrary view. People's religious views are a very private thing that are hidden or excluded from others. Tony Blair famously said that you have to keep religion out of politics. Some may be too afraid to take the step and come inside to get to know God because they think of him as a big scary voice in the sky, or maybe it's the church building or the pastor who's scary!
Sadly there are a lot of people who are hurt by their previous experience of church. Some may think they are too good and so don't need to go to church; others may feel that they are somehow not good enough. If you get the cart before the horse you may think that the cost of salvation is just too high and you'll never be good enough for God to love you. Guess what—God loves us whether we think we're good enough or not. Even as a Christian, doubts can enter our head as to whether we are good enough to be saved, are we good enough for God to love us?. Everyone is included in the love of God. Romans 5:8 says that Jesus died for us while we were still sinners. It's not about us—it's about Him!!
Jesus has already died for us—all of us, once for all as it says in Hebrews and by doing so He offers us the gift of life freely. That's God's grace. We are not super humans who are perfect and deserve it, we have our faults, but God loves us anyway. Ephesians 2:8-9 says, "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is a gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast." This says that we are saved by faith, but this isn't even from us – we're saved by the faith of Jesus.
God does not want anyone to perish—his love is inclusive. Jesus came to save the lost, he came to give life. The parable of the lost sheep in Matthew 18:11–14 sees great joy when the lost sheep is found. In verse 14 Jesus said, "In the same way your Father in heaven is not willing that any of these little ones should perish." This is so encouraging. Just as the shepherd rejoiced when he found the sheep, God rejoices when people accept the precious gift of life.
The good news is that Jesus, the Word, became flesh and blood like us. He was born, he lived and died and rose again, then ascended, so that all who believe in him shall be saved and have eternal life.
Heavenly Father, thank you for including us in your love and grace so that we can have the gift of life.

"To the church of God in Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus and called to be his holy people, together with all those everywhere who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ—their Lord and ours:"
1 Corinthians 1:2 (NIV)
Many people have pets in their lifetime: dogs, parrots, cats, budgerigars, hamsters and so on. Each one has its own delights, each one its own nuisances. We have a much loved tortoise shell cat; cute, fluffy, warm, cuddly but who, unfortunately, also has fleas. As we try to rid ourselves of the fleas we have to clean, spray, comb, douse with liquid flea killer, everything we can think of because, much as I love our cat, I hate the fleas as they seem to believe I am their dinner as much as the cat is. One flea is too much for me as the little darling tries to sit on my lap (and I have noticed it is mine she prefers to anybody else's)!
God loves each of us (though perfectly) just as much as I love our cat, but we carry our sins with us just as the cat carries fleas. And much as we may want God to cuddle and comfort us God sees the sin we have and doesn't like it. So He applies the only solution to us—His Son's sacrifice for us.
Whereas the battle with fleas will continue a little while longer, the battle to clean away sin has already been won. Just as I love the cat but hate the fleas, so God loves the sinner but hates the sin. As Paul reminded the Corinthian Church: "But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God." (1 Corinthians 6:11).
Knowing how passionate God is about freeing us from sin, we should also share in his desire. When free from fleas, why would anyone, or any cat, choose to get re-infected? Just as the cat should avoid other cats with fleas, so Christians should avoid prolonged contact with other people and/or situations that cause them to become entangled with sin: "Do not be misled: 'Bad company corrupts good character.'" (1 Corinthians 15:33).
We do not measure the value of our cats by whatever fleas they may have. Fleas are a temporary nuisance, which have no impact on the love we have for our cats. Likewise, God loves us despite our sins. Through Jesus, he has found an eternal solution to the problem of sin. One day all sin will be gone thanks to the perfect love of God.
Father, you hate sin, yet your hate is driven by your great love for us. You see how sin warps, spoils and ruins our lives and our relationships, especially our relationship with you. Guide us to be like you, hating sin but loving the sinner, living the life won for us by your Son, Jesus.

"Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ."
Romans 5:1 (NIV)
In the world of Monty Python a group of Jewish zealots are sitting in a darkened room plotting the overthrow of Rome. One activist says, 'They've taken everything we had, not just from us, from our fathers and from our fathers' fathers. And what have they ever given us in return?'
The replies from the others were: 'The aqueduct; sanitation; the roads; medicine; education; health; the wine; public baths; it's safe to walk the street at nights; they know how to keep order.'
Slightly annoyed at the responses, the activist said, 'All right…all right…but apart from better sanitation and medicine and education and irrigation and public health and roads and a freshwater system and baths and public order…what have the Romans done for us?'
The lone reply was 'Brought peace!'
That episode got me thinking about the question that some people ask: 'What has Jesus Christ ever done for us?' How would you answer that question? Just as we might be able to list the numerous things the Romans did, we could no doubt list many of the things Jesus did for us, but perhaps the bottom line is the answer given at the end of that comic scene—he brought peace! That is what the angels announced at his birth, "Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favour rests." (Luke 2:14)
It's easy to read that verse and think, 'you have got to be joking. Peace? There has been no peace on earth since Jesus was born.' But this is not talking about the end of armed conflict or the cessation of war, it's referring to peace with God that Jesus will provide for us through his sacrifice. The Bible says in Colossians 1:21-22 (GNT), "At one time you were far away from God and were his enemies because of the evil things you did and thought. But now, by means of the physical death of his Son, God has made you his friends, in order to bring you, holy, pure, and faultless, into his presence."
The good news is that Jesus Christ through his birth, death, resurrection and ascension has already done everything you need to make peace with God. All you need to do is surrender and accept it by faith. "So now we can rejoice in our wonderful new relationship with God because our Lord Jesus Christ has made us friends of God." (Romans 5:11 NLT)
Father, thank you that through the Lord Jesus Christ we are no longer your enemies but have been reconciled to you and are now your friends. Help us to value the sacrifice that has brought us peace.

"The natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him, and he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned."
1 Corinthians 2:14 (ESVUK)
"Seeing is believing" is a commonly used expression which generally means that something surprising or strange can only be believed to be true if it is witnessed first-hand. This could have been the motto of Thomas the disciple of Jesus who, when first told of the resurrection of Jesus stated, "…Unless I see in his hands the mark of the nails, and place my finger into the mark of the nails, and place my hand into his side, I will never believe." (John 20:25)
The prestigious Royal Society, whose core members come from the United Kingdom and Commonwealth and are experts in science and engineering, takes a more rigorous view and has the motto. "Nullius in verba". This motto is Latin for "Take nobody's word for it" and is an expression of the members' determination to verify all statements by appeal to the facts determined by experiment. This view has enabled the progressive accumulation of knowledge and understanding, and the development of scientific theories of the physical world.
Although seen or experimental evidence are useful tools for determining truth, they cannot always be interpreted easily or correctly, particularly where there is a spiritual dimension. When Jesus, the son of God, healed a demon possessed blind and mute, some who saw it did not deny the miracle but misinterpreted its source claiming, "…it is only by Beelzebul, the prince of demons, that this man casts out demons." (Matthew 12:24)
Some see Christians as having a blind faith, but often faith does not imply a closed, but an open mind. Faith appreciates the vast spiritual realities that materialists overlook by focussing solely on the purely physical.
God through the Holy Spirit enables Christians to discern deeper truths, a greater reality about the world which transcends the empirical, and to see the natural world through a theological prism. Some, including GCI, interpret nature through a Trinitarian lens. The Christian faith when rooted in divine self-revelation illuminates and aids interpretation of the natural world. The Book of Scripture enables a more discerning reading of the Book of Nature.
In the spiritual world and for some aspects of the physical world it is essential to recognise that believing is seeing.
Father, we thank you that through your grace Christians are given spiritual insight leading to a deeper understanding of the physical world.

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him."
John 3:16–17 (NIV UK)
There's an old saying: "Love can make you crazy." When you're in love, you do things that you wouldn't ordinarily do. You see it all the time in movies—the hero arranges a wildly extravagant display of affection in an attempt to win back the leading lady. It's this type of wild extravagance that got me thinking about the way God expresses his love for us.
The story of our relationship with God is filled with moments of distance, resentment, disappointment and disobedience. It seems as if it's impossible for us to maintain our 'side' of the relationship. But even though he knew this from the beginning, God did something that most of us would think is crazy—he loved us anyway. See how John puts it: "This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him" (1 John 4:9).
God's relationship with us isn't contractual. He doesn't say, "If you do X, Y or Z, then I'll love you and remain faithful." Instead, he offers us a covenant where his love is freely given. It's not earned or deserved. He has promised to be faithful to us no matter what. He remains for us and for our good because of who he is—a holy and loving God. And that means that no matter what happens on our side of the relationship, God will always fulfil his promises, no matter how crazy it seems to us.
This weekend I hope you and your loved ones enjoy a restful break. I be praying that you'll also be reminded of God's "crazy" covenantal love that extends to all of us through his Son Christ Jesus, through the power of the Holy Spirit.
Eternal Father, may we extend our blessing to you, because you seem to do so much for us out of love and commitment to us. In Jesus' name we pray.

"God has said, 'Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.' So we say with confidence, 'The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?'"
Hebrews 13:5-6 (NIV)
There is a hymn with lyrics, "How deep the Father's love for us, how vast beyond all measure, that he should give his only Son, to make a wretch his treasure. How great the pain of searing loss—the Father turns His face away, as wounds which mar the chosen One, bring many sons to glory."
This has always made me uncomfortable. Did the Father turn his face away from, and forsake, his beloved Son as most commentators tell us? We read in Matthew 27:46 that Jesus dying on the cross cried out, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" But because he feels forsaken does not make it so.
I was reading recently in Psalm 22:1 where the phrase is used by King David and Jesus may have been quoting this prophetic scripture. If we read on through the fulfilled prophecies such as verse 16, "they pierce my hands and my feet" and verse 18, "They divide my clothes among them and cast lots for my garment," we come to the end where verse 24 concludes, "For he has not despised or scorned the suffering of the afflicted one; he has not hidden his face from him but has listened to his cry for help." For me therefore this is not a cry of abandonment or despair but one which had full confidence in his Father. If it seemed for the moment he was alone, he knew for a certainty it was but for the moment.
Our Heavenly Father will never abandon or forsake us, just as he did not abandon or forsake his dying Son but raised him up, as he will us at the end of our lives as well!
Father in Heaven, you love all your children from your firstborn Son to every person ever born. We cry out to you in complete faith that you will never forsake or abandon us.

"But he who is noble plans noble things, and on noble things he stands."
Isaiah 32:8 (ESVUK)
The word "noble" is not often used these days. It can sound outdated, archaic, as if it belongs to the Victorian age or to the days of knights and chivalry. It denotes the idea of conducting oneself with virtue and honour in a worthy cause, and of thinking not only about one's own welfare, but also about the greater good of those around us.
In chapter 32:1-8 of his book, Isaiah is looking forward to the reign of the righteous king, which is a prophecy about the Messiah, Jesus Christ. He is comparing the dishonourable ways of society in Isaiah's time to the honourable ways of the kingdom to come. Fools, meaning those who "utter error against the Lord" and whose hearts are "busy with iniquity", are regarded as noble when in fact they are not (vs 5-6). Scoundrels, another word that can sound old-fashioned to our ears, plan "wicked schemes" and their devices are evil (v.7).
It is in contrast to the actions of fools and scoundrels that Isaiah points to how the truly noble behave. Noble people don't just claim to be noble because of heredity or descent or by dint of being close to the king or queen. Rather they illustrate being noble by planning noble things and by standing up for what is right. To be noble is to act nobly. To be kind is to act kindly. For us, to be Christian is to act Christ-like because Jesus lives within us, and to plan to do Christ-like things.
Planning is thinking ahead. Following Jesus is not just a question of having good and Christian reactions, but it also involves making intentional and deliberate plans to do something kind, loving and, as Isaiah says, "noble" for other people.
Do you plan noble things?
Help me, please, eternal Father, to put my Christianity into practice and to plan noble things to encourage and help others. In Jesus' name.

What is Zochrot really remembering?

On March 21-22 the Israeli NGO Zochrot held its "Third International Conference on the Return of Palestinian Refugees" in Tel Aviv. The two-day event featured an all-star team of anti-Israeli Israeli speakers from NGOs and academia, all to promote the Palestinian "right of return."
Zochrot's goal is "rais[ing] public awareness of the Palestinian Nakba" and "recognizing and materializing the right of return," stressing that "the rights of the refugees to return must be accepted." Nothing brings together Israel haters, including Americans, like the Palestinian "right of return."

There is a soft/active boycott coming out of Washington as a result of the "tough love" message that Barack Obama has been peddling around since his talk in Jerusalem in 2013, and during his speech during Jewish American Heritage Month at Adas Israel congregation in Washington last year, where he stated:

In late January, the U.S. Customs and Border Protection agency changed its policy on imports from the West Bank, imposing, in effect, a sanction on such goods.
The penalty states that products must no longer be labeled "Made in Israel," because the United States views the West Bank as territory illegitimately controlled by Israel.

A firecracker has dimensions as shown. Height is 14 cm, radius is 1 cm and slant height of the cone is 2 cm. Paper covers the entire surface area including the cone, the lateral area and the bottom circle but does not include the tail. What is the best approximate area of paper needed to wrap the firecracker? (Use for . Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)
you have 2 different shapes. a cilinder and a cone. to calculate the whole area you will need to calculate the total area of the cilinder and the total area of the cone. \[Acone= pi * r^2\] \[Acilinder=2*π*r*h + 2π*r2 \]
can you set the problum up with me?
yes, sure.
\[Acone: 3,14*1^2\]
= 3.14
then: Acone+Acilinder
and that is your answer :)
hold up please

LG Leading The Way In Glasses-Free 3D
LG Electronics (LG) today unveiled the world's first glasses-free monitor utilizing eye-tracking technology to maintain an optimal 3D image from a range of viewing angles. The 20-inch D2000 monitor was developed as a fully func-tional entertainment display capable of reproducing games, movies and images in all their realistic glory.
"With a full line-up of 3D TVs, laptops, projectors and smartphones, LG Electronics is by far and away the industry leader in all things 3D." said Si-hwan Park, Vice President of the Monitor Division at LG's Home Entertainment Company. "LG's position has al-ways been that 3D will and must eventually function without glasses. The D2000 is a look at what the future has in store."
The D2000's 3D effect comes courtesy of glasses-free parallax barrier 3D technology, and the application of the world's first eye-tracking feature to the monitor. The combi-nation of parallax barrier and eye-tracking in a single unit promises to open up new ho-rizons for glasses-free 3D products.
Existing glasses-free 3D technologies generally require viewers to stay within a tightly restricted angle and distance to perceive the 3D images. However, the D2000 has done much to resolve this issue, allowing viewer much freer movement and more comfort-able viewing. Eye tracking in the D2000 works via a special camera sensor attached to the monitor which detects changes in the user's eye position in real-time. With this in-formation, the monitor calculates the angle and position of the viewer and adjusts the displayed image for the optimal 3D effect.
In addition to playing back existing 3D content, the D2000 has a highly refined 2D to 3D conversion feature which adds a new dimension to existing movies and game playing.
The D2000, available in Korea this month, will be introduced in other markets around the world in the latter part of 2011.

Trans Energy, Inc. Reports Production Results On Anderson Wells In Wetzel County, West Virginia
ST. MARYS, W. Va., Nov. 27, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Trans Energy, Inc. (OTCQB: TENG), a pure play Marcellus Shale exploration and production company, today announced production results on the Anderson #5H and Anderson #7H in Wetzel County, West Virginia. 30-Day Production Rate Sets New Company RecordInitial 30-day production rates from the Anderson #5H and Anderson #7H averaged 9,637 Mcfe/d and 7,095 Mcfe/d, respectively. The 30-day IP rate from the Anderson #5H represents a 26 percent increase compared to 30-day IP rate from the Dewhurst #111H – previously Trans Energy's best performing well in the Marcellus – and establishes the Anderson #5H well as Trans Energy's best performing horizontal Marcellus well to date. John G. Corp, President of Trans Energy, said, "Our core acreage position in the Marcellus continues to deliver better than expected results. The Anderson #5H and #7H are two of our best performing wells to date. As we continue to execute our drilling program across our more than 60,000 gross acres in Wetzel, Marshall, Tyler and Marion Counties, we believe that our drilling expertise, combined with the geology across our acreage position, will enable us to continue to deliver impressive results from our upcoming horizontal wells." The two Anderson horizontal wellbores are parallel to one another and were hydraulically stimulated at the same time. The effective lateral lengths that were hydraulically stimulated in the Anderson #5H and the Anderson #7H were 4,980 feet and 5,470 feet, respectively.

PITTSBURGH, Feb. 18, 2014 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) is fining Halliburton Energy Services $1.8 million for 255 violations of the Solid Waste Management Act between 1999 and 2011.
DEP became aware of the violations in 2011 during an inspection of the facility, and further investigation revealed violations dating back to 1999.
"Our regulations are in place to protect the health and safety of our residents and to preserve our environmental resources," DEP Secretary Chris Abruzzo said. "Halliburton's repeated disregard of these regulations is unacceptable."
The violations occurred when the company, at its Homer City facility in Indiana County, stored, treated and transported waste hydrochloric acid without obtaining proper permits from DEP.
During the 12-year time period, Halliburton transported acidic waste, which had originated from various gas well sites, without identifying the waste as "hazardous waste," without proper hazardous waste trucking records, and without using a licensed hazardous waste transporter. In addition, the company sent the hazardous waste to an unauthorized treatment and disposal operation.
While there is no evidence that Halliburton's handling of the hazardous waste caused any actual harm to the public or the environment; Halliburton violated state regulations governing the handling, storage, transport and disposal of hazardous waste on hundreds of occasions.
The Consent Assessment of Civil Penalty (CACP) which assesses the fine was signed by DEP and the company on Feb. 7. By signing the CACP, the company agrees not to appeal the penalty.

Confidently build and protect beautiful business apps
Unleash the power of a high- performance business rules engine
Manufacturing requires precision. Manufacturing 140,000 kilometers of wire per day is akin to the pursuit of perfection. Schwering & Hasse employs 400 production lines 24 hours a day to manufacture enough magnetized copper wire each year to stretch beyond Venus. They are a Progress Apama customer and we are proud to assist them in their pursuit.
During the manufacturing process, even the smallest temperature variation can result in critical errors and lost production. S&H came to Progress Software looking for a powerful yet customizable quality management solution. Progress Apama gives S&H the ability to monitor dozens of independent quality factors in real time – up to 50,000 production events per second. For example, Apama enables S&H to be aware of specific machines, copper lots, workers and production parameters such as temperature – all in the context of historical manufacturing data.
After deploying the Apama-based quality management system, S&H's factories are monitoring quality every 25 millimeters – a fast improvement over quality checks at every 100 meters previously. This means fewer mistakes, higher yields and better margins. All thanks to affordable, real-time quality control.
Interested in learning more about how Progress Apama solved Schwering & Hasse's quality control problem? Read the complete case study here.

Helping SMEs get cash in hand
Relevant offers
Small Business
Invoice factoring has had a bad rap in the past, but the industry is growing and financiers are promoting it as a way for small businesses to get cash in hand fast.
Factoring, or invoice financing as it is also known, is the practice of businesses borrowing short-term against invoices they issue, allowing them to access the money immediately to keep cashflows healthy.
It isn't cheap, but it is on the rise driven in part by reduced availability of traditional forms of finance.
In New Zealand businesses are waiting an average of 43 days to be paid by other companies. In Australia the wait takes nearly eight weeks.
Owner of factoring firm Working Capital Solutions (WCS) Edward McKee Wright said the factoring market was big in Australia and the rest of the world, but it was still in its infancy in New Zealand.
McKee Wright had been working in the factoring business for about 20 years.
"I've been pushing and pushing the factoring wheelbarrow."
Annual factoring turnover was $78 billion in Australia last year. New Zealand's turnover was less than $1b last year.
Experts estimated less than 1000 New Zealand SMEs were factoring.
There was definite room for growth in the Kiwi market with more than 97 per cent of New Zealand businesses falling into the small to medium-sized business (SME) category, McKee Wright said.
More than 70 per cent of small businesses expected cashflow to be an issue to their operations, he said.
And about 60 per cent of New Zealand businesses did not make it past their fifth birthday.
"Profit is a matter of opinion, but cash is a matter of fact."
Grant Thornton privately held business partner Paul Kane said business owners have been forced to look at alternative ways to solve their cashflow problems.
"Pre-2008 it didn't matter. Banks were giving out money, literally."
Bibby Financial Services head of sales John Blackmore said banks would often not lend to young companies without good profits.
"We are still going to do the deals that the banks don't want to do."
Bibby factored about $50 million of invoices in New Zealand each year.
New Zealand business owners traditionally used their homes as security so they could borrow from the bank, Blackmore said.
Invoice financing had only recently gained recognition in New Zealand, despite starting in the United States in the early 1900s.
New Zealanders have held a negative view of factoring in the past, Kane said.
There was the assumption that if someone else was running the company's debtor book then it was in financial strife, he said.
A lot of Kiwi SMEs did not know how factoring worked, he said.
But with more reputable companies and bigger players, including BNZ and Heartland, coming into the mix, factoring was gaining momentum.
Kane said SMEs needed to seek good financial advice around their debtor financing.
"It's sort of the New Zealand way to just muddle through."
People needed to understand there were risks, and that like any other debt financing tool it was an alternative, he said.
It was not a good option for companies that were in decline, Kane said.
"It's probably going to put them further into [decline] to be honest."
SMEs needed to be aware that there were risks associated with all forms of debt collection, Kane said.
It's more expensive than a bank overdraft, for example.
There's generally a fee of about 2 per cent of the sum borrowed and the interest rate on the loan is similar to bank rates.
New Zealand factors offered nonrecourse factoring when the factor takes legal responsibility for the debts, so if a debtor cannot pay the SME does not need to refund the advance from the factor as it is covered by insurance.
Blackmore said businesses needed to have an exit strategy when they had come to the end of their growth stage and started turning a profit.
Sales training and recruitment company Sales Star was struggling with cashflow due to slow-paying clients before it started using invoice factoring.
Sales Star chief executive Paul O'Donohue said the company, which had been around for the past eight years, had been using invoice factoring for six years.
The company had grown 247 per cent in the past two years, O'Donohue said.
"Growth sucks cash."
O'Donohue had factored $30,000 worth of invoices.
Factoring had put fuel in Sales Star's tank to take care of general business, he said.
"Cash is king and is the lifeblood of any thriving organisation."
It took away the worries of paying salaries, rent and other essential business expenses on time, he said.
SMEs did not use factoring enough, O'Donohue said.
"Maybe they are afraid of the rates."
Factoring was value for money, as it meant getting cash quickly, he said.
"I don't mind discounting an invoice slightly to get the cash in faster. I view this as opportunity cost."

Lite-On's new DVD Burners - Burning at 12x and with Dual Layers
DVD burners are one of the harder products to purchase at the moment. This is not because there is such a big range to choose from but the fact that the technology moves that fast that you could buy one today then tomorrow there could be a $30 price drop then a week later there is a faster speed out. This is the worst nightmare for any computer enthusiast who wants to keep up to date with technology.
Lite-On is one of the major players in the ROM market. They are well known for making not only a very good burner but a very affordable no-frills burner at the same time - what more could someone want when it comes to burning an optical disk? A normal CD-ROM these days is something you really don't see these days, with the cost of CD burners or DVD drives you may as well go down this path as it equals extremely good value for money.
You know that a product is becoming mainstream when companies like Dell, HP and other major computer manufactures have them standard in their entry-level computers. It isn't uncommon to go to your local major computer retailer and see computers as far as the eye can see come with a DVD burner. This is because the price is quite competitive and their usefulness is extremely high.
Today we will be looking at two of the more recent optical writing products to come from Lite-On. To give you an idea of what we said in the first paragraph, between getting these units in from our friends at Lite-On and reviewing them (roughly 3 weeks), the company released a faster burner (16x DVD) which we hope to test soon. We have the Lite-On 1213S 12 X DVD Burner which was the fastest only a few weeks ago with support for DVD-R and DVD+R writes and we also have the 832S which is Lite-On's first Dual Layer DVD burner for users looking to backup huge amounts of data and copy DVD's with quality very close to the original.
