Liquidated Damages is another important term discussed in construction contracts. Sometimes contractors misunderstand liquidated damages as a penalty for not completing the construction project within the stipulated time fame. However liquidated damages are not a penalty imposed on contractor.
In this post I try to cover some of the details related to Liquidated damages including scenario to deduct liquidated damages from the contractor, reasons to deduct liquidated damages and employer's rights for damages when the contractor does not complete the project as mentioned in the contract agreement.
What are Liquidated Damages in Construction Contracts?
Liquidated Damages are pre-determined damages mentioned in the construction contract agreement which both parties to the contract agree as the amount to recover if the contract is breached. Usually Liquidated Damages are recovered by the Employer if the contractor fails to substantially complete the work within the stipulated time for completion.
Are Liquidated Damages penalties?
Liquidated Damages are not any penalties which imposed on contractors. It is a pre-determined amount to cover the possible loss that Employer has to face if the contractor doesn't complete his work within the time for completion stated in the construction contract. Both contractor and employer knows the amount of Liquidated damages per day or per week if the work is not completed substantially. By signing the contract agreement, contractor agrees on the amount of Liquidated Damages that Employer can recover if the contractor fails to deliver the project within the Time for Completion.
How to determine the amount of Liquidated Damages?
While recovering of Liquidated damages occur at the completion of work scope in full or as a phase, the amount of liquidated damages are pre-set amounts depending on the size and nature of the project.
Amount of Liquidated Damages are determined based on the possible loss incur to the Employer if the contractor fails to complete the project on time. These possible losses to the client include rental cost, loss of possible income if the project completed on time, extra running costs, temporary accommodation costs etc depending on the nature of the construction project scope.
Once these costs are identified, Liquidated Damages per day or per week is calculated. This is the amount mentioned in any construction contract as Liquidated Damages for the project. The amount can be per day or per week and it can be recovered if practical completion is not achieved for the whole project or a phase depending on the type of contract.
The amount of Liquidated Damages and the recovery period of it vary from project to project (or from contract to contract)
Reduction of Liquidated Damages
If the contractor fails to meet the practical completion by the mentioned project completion date, Employer is entitled to recover the Liquidated Damages from the contractor. Contractor shall allow the Employer to recover the liquidated damages calculated at the rate mentioned in the contract agreement for the period of delay.
However such recovery of Liquidated damages by the employer does not relieve the contractor from his liabilities and obligations under the contract. The contractor shall complete the project with accepted quality as per the contract.
For example, if the liquidated damages per day is $ 2000 and if the contractor's substantial completion is 7 days delay then the employer is entitled to recover $14,000 as Liquidated Damages from the contractor. However the contractor still need to complete the project to the satisfaction of Employer and Engineer/Architect
So far I have experience in few projects that employer recovering liquidated damages from the contractor due to the delay in completion. These amounts are adjusted in the Final Account.
As a contractor you can check the possibility of EOT claims to avoid deduction of Liquidated Damages if you foresee delay in completion.
Extension of Time during Delay period
If the delay to the contract is due to a reason that contractor is not responsible, then the contractor has the right to request for Extension of Time. (EOT Claim) According to the construction contracts, there are several reasons that cause delay of the project and which are beyond contractor's control. Some of such causes of project delay include Force Majeure, adverse weather conditions, industrial actions, instruction for a variation, Employer's failure to give possession of site on time etc. If the project delay is due to such reasons that entitle the contractor to claim Extension of Time and if the Architect/Contract Administrator or the person authorized approve the extension of time then such time period is added to the total project period. This allows contractor to complete the work scope without any delay. However the contractor should apply in writing following the clauses in contract agreement when he finds the grounds for EOT claims.
Benefits of Liquidated Damages in Construction Contracts
Liquidated damages save both time and money. Although liquidated damages seems like beneficial for the Employer to recover his loss, this is a pre-determined rate which both parties agree at the time of signing the contract. Therefore both contractor and employer do not need to calculate the loss and damages if the project is delayed by 1 day.
However if the delay of the project is due to a reason that is beyond the contractor, he can claim EOT. Sometimes these reasons and scenario can create environment for disputes.
If you are a Main contractor and work with subcontractors to complete the project, then it is necessary to sign your contract agreement with the sub-contractor with necessary clauses. In the event that the delay is due to sub contracted work and if Liquidated Damages are mentioned in your sub-contractor agreement, then you can recover some part of liquidated damages from the sub-contractor depending on the project and contractual situation.

Trident closing in on 100 goals
Leo Messi, Luis Suárez and Neymar Jr have scored 98 goals between them this season - meaning they need just two more to complete a third consecutive century
Força Barça
There is simply no stopping the trident! Between the three of them, Leo Messi, Luis Suárez and Neymar Jr have scored 98 goals in all competitions this season, exactly half of those scored by the Argentinian (49), while 34 have come from the Uruguayan and 15 from the Brazilian.
But such goalscoring feats are something we have become used to since the MSN have been together. In Suárez's first season at the club (2014-15), they amassed 122 goals, and they went even better last term with 131.
No club in any of Europe's major leagues has a frontline that even comes close to matching the Barça threesome, the closest challenge coming from the PSG strike-force, who have shared 75 goals in all competitions.
But Messi, Suárez and Neymar Jr also lead the way in assists. The Brazilian alone has set up 19 goals in all competitions, a tally only topped by Christian Eriksen of Tottenham with 20, and matched by Ousmane Dembélé of Dortmund.
Messi and Suárez also feature high in the list with 15 assists each.

What Causes Erectile Dysfunction?
Erectile dysfunction, a condition that affects 40% of men over 40 years of age, is defined as an inability to achieve or maintain an erection long enough to have a satisfying sexual relationship. Knowing the cause of a malfunction can be a good start to try to solve it. Here are some of the possible causes of ED:
- Diseases – Diabetes, multiple sclerosis, kidney disease, vascular or neurological, hormonal and other disorders are many diseases that may be implicated in erectile dysfunction.
- Lifestyle – Bad habits can be the cause of erectile dysfunction. Smoking, for example, can disrupt the mechanisms of erection gradually blocking the small arteries. Alcohol abuse, in turn, can affect erectile asleep in your nervous system. A high-fat diet can also do harm to erections. Eat and enjoy physical activity several times a week can be beneficial.
- Surgery – If you have recently had surgery in the pelvic area (removal of the prostate, injury to the spinal cord, etc.), it may be that the nerves and arteries necessary to achieve and maintain an erection were damaged.
- Drugs – Antihypertensives, antidepressants, tranquilizers, anticancer drugs, estrogen and others can affect erection. If you fear that your medication is the cause of your erectile dysfunction, please do not stop taking them. Talk to your doctor, who can make the decision to change for others who do not produce this side effect, if possible.
- Psychological Factors – Stress, performance anxiety in a new partner or a new sexual position, depression and guilt are many psychological factors that can impede the proper erectile function.
The search for information on erectile dysfunction is a step in the right direction. You and your partner have the power to change the situation. In this Rock Hard Protocol Review, we will discuss how Anna Young's written guide can help you get through your impotence problem.
What is Rock Hard Protocol?
Rock Hard Protocol by Anna Young is a guide written for men who haven't had full erections and get their bedroom confidence back. It provides you how to regain your power and potency inside the bedroom with the use of one strange white powder that can be mixed in a beverage without alternating its taste. This program will also teach you how to stop the bad habits that may impact your ability to achieve an erection.

They are: All-Night Energy: How to Have the Sexual Energy of a 20-year-old even if you're closer to 120 and Sexual Superman: How to give her the best sex of her life every single time!
Who is Anna Young?
Anna Young was a sexually frustrated housewife from North Dakota whose husband suffered from erectile dysfunction for more than a year. Her husband tried the popular ED drugs, but the side effects almost killed him. Discontented of her sex life for over a year, Anna opened up her problem to a friend named Karen, a medical researcher for a pharmaceutical company.
Karen shared that she and her husband John went through exactly the same thing a couple of years ago. In order to solve their problem, Karen did her own research by digging up her company's research archives, which hold thousands of scientific papers and little known clinical studies. There she found a clinical study where scientists used natural, drug-free ingredients, to help men with ED get rock hard erections. In the study, it took 3 months for 92.5% of men to get full erections and 5% of them got full erections after 30 days. Karen used these ingredients on her husband and it worked like charm. She advised Anna to do the same as she thinks drugs like Cialis and Viagra are too expensive and dangerous.
Anna tried to mix these erection-enhancing ingredients in her husband's daily protein shake. Then one night, she offered her husband an innocent massage, slowly moving her hands lower and lower, and was surprised that it DID work. She was practically impressed with this secret ED treatment so she and her friend decided to release this secret in public. With Karen's help, Anna was able to compose a natural step-by-step ED treatment guide including the exact amounts, where to buy and when to use this strange white powder, from which they called "Rock Hard Protocol."
How Does Rock Hard Protocol Work?
You've probably heard about Nitric Oxide, one of the most popular natural remedy for erectile dysfunction. It is the molecule inside your body that tells your blood vessels to relax in order to trigger an erection. This chemical compound occurs naturally in the body, however it declines with age and most experts agree that is one of the root causes of ED.
In order to make Nitric Oxide in your body, you need L-Arginine. This amino acid is the raw material that your body uses to produce Nitric Oxide. In order to activate L-Arginine inside your body, you need another nutrient called OPC, which comes from a special type of tree bark. It's pretty much like what Viagra does, but without the side effects.
Anna Young in her Rock Hard Protocol guide reveals a strange white powder that she used to treat her husband's condition and get their sex life back. This inexpensive natural powder can be bought in any health food stores. This white powder contains L-Arginine and OPC, the compounds needed to produce an erection. It can be mixed with a beverage without alternating the taste of the drink.
Aside from revealing the natural powdered form of erection compounds, the program will also teach you how to stop the bad habits that impacts your ability to produce an erection. Overeating, smoking and alcoholism are some examples of the issues mentioned inside the guide.
Rock Hard Protocol Review – Recommendation
There are various modes of treatment of erectile dysfunction. As is the case with any type of treatment, each has its advantages and disadvantages. Standard treatments options include pharmaceutical drugs, implants, and surgery. However, a lot of men prefer natural methods. Fortunately, scientific research has found that some natural options are effective in improving the symptoms of erectile dysfunction and it is available inside the Rock Hard Protocol program.
For many, having a healthy and enjoyable sex life is a source of great satisfaction. Unfortunately, some men are embarrassed or reluctant to discuss sexual matters with their doctors. If you are suffering from ED, don't be so hard on yourself, since impotence can be improved with natural treatment. Before you invest on costly and potentially harmful drugs, I advice you to check out Anna Young's Rock Hard Protocol first, and see if it can work for you. As I've said a while ago in this Rock Hard Protocol Review, it has the same effects as when Viagra is taken, only that it doesn't produce negative side effects.
IMPORTANT UPDATE: Rock Hard Protocol is NO LONGER AVAILABLE. However, we have good news for you! We found a better alternative to help your erectile dysfunction issues!

The Lemp Mansion in St. Louis is often mentioned in lists of America's most haunted places. The former home of the Lemp family is now a restaurant and bed & breakfast. Diners and overnight guests can experience the ghostly happenings inside the mansion.
Why It's Haunted
The sad history of the Lemp family makes it easy to see why many believe the mansion is haunted. The Lemps once ruled over the second largest brewery in the U.S., and the family home is everything you'd expect from such a dynasty. But the mansion is also the place where three family members committed suicide and their ghosts are still said to roam about the halls.
The downfall of the Lemp beer dynasty began in 1901 when Frederick Lemp died under mysterious circumstances. Frederick was the heir to the beer empire and the favorite son of his father, William. Three years later, a still grieving William shot himself in the head in a bedroom of the Lemp Mansion. In a span of two generations, four members of the Lemp family killed themselves.
Daughter Elsa committed suicide at her husband's home in 1920 after enduring a difficult marriage. Son William Jr. shot himself inside the Lemp Mansion in 1922. He'd previously gone through a divorce and lost custody of his only child. The final suicide at the mansion was in 1949 when son Charles shot and killed his dog and then himself. It's this tragic family history, combined with hundreds of stories of ghostly encounters, that earns the Lemp Mansion a place among the nation's most haunted houses.
St. Louis' Most Unique Bed & Breakfast
Today, the home's reputation makes it one of St. Louis' most interesting bed & breakfasts. The thirty-three room mansion still has original furnishings and a distinctive victorian and art deco decor. Overnight guests can choose to stay in one of four different suites: the Lavender Suite, William Lemp Suite, Elsa Lemp Suite, or the Frederick and Louis Lemp Suite. The Lavender and William Lemp Suites and decorated in period furniture, while the Elsa and Frederick and Louis Suites offer more modern accommodations.
The Lemp Mansion is located at 3322 DeMenil Place in south St. Louis and can be reached at (314) 664-8024. The restaurant is open for lunch Monday through Friday from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Dinner is served Thursday through Saturday from 5:30 p.m. to 10 p.m. (January-August), and Tuesday through Saturday from 5:30 p.m. to 10 p.m. (September-December). Each Sunday, the restaurant serves a family-style, all-you-can-eat chicken dinner from 11:30 a.m. to 8 p.m.
Haunted Events
The Lemp Mansion plays up its spooky reputation by offering haunted events throughout the year. Haunted tours are offered most Monday evenings at 7 p.m. Local ghost hunters also take private groups through the mansion looking for signs of paranormal activity. And each Halloween, the Lemp Mansion hosts a costume party and dance. For more on these and other haunted happenings, see the Lemp Mansion website.

From a previous post, I have my Scarlet Witch, CoCo deck. I made quite a few changes to it since then. Here's the new decklist.
Little Witch, Lulu (Starter) -1
Psychic Bird (Critical) -4
Oracle Guardian, Nike (Critical) -2
Miracle Kid (Draw) -4
Dream Eater (Draw) -2
Lozenge Magus (Heal) -4
Grade 1 (15)
Battle Sister, Chocolat -4
Battle Sister, Omelette -2
Oracle Guardian, Gemini -4
One Who Gazes at the Truth -3
Wheather Girl, Milk -2
Grade 2 (12)
Battle Sister, Glace -3
Oracle Guardian, Wiseman -3
Promise Daughter -3
Security Guardian -3
Grade 3 (6)
Scarlet Witch, CoCo -4
Goddess of Flower Divination, Sakuya -2
Let's start from the triggers, the grade 0s down to the grade 3s. First of all, you can see that I have decreased the amount of critical triggers and increased the amount of draw triggers, this is because I noticed that my previous deck had an extreme disadvantage against 20k columns. The extra draw trigger can give me a boost in defense as well as having (more) hand advantage. It also gives me more chance to recycle my Heal Trigger.
Next, in the list of grade 1s, you can see that I added Milk, the 10k booster. This card is the main vanguard booster. The increased draw trigger further increases the consistency for it's ability. It also helps my cards reach 23k or 24k to hit Cross-Rides. Another problem solved by Milk is the need for Gemini to boost my Vanguard. This means that Gemini can be used to boost the rear-guards instead.
I've made a lot of changes onto the grade 2 cards. I swapped Mocha with Glace. Well, this really is up to what you want. What I like about Glace is that it can stay on 11k even for long games where I will not have 4 or more hand. I've also swapped Brakki for Promise Daughter. Promise Daughter will be my power attacker. Of course, I will only use her ability when I have an extra card to use, which is helped by the draw triggers. I've also changed Tom for Security Guardian. One reason is to fight against opposing 20k columns, another, to counter opposing Toms.
Lastly, I've went back to my original setup of grade 3, being 4 CoCo and 2 Sakuya. The deck I posted on my last post was actually an edit of that original deck. Running less grade 3 is actually good for this deck, as I will have more shield power. This also means that I don't have to run grade 3 on my rears so that I have space for interceptors. The increased Sakuya gives more chance to ride her and return Lulu, and also rearrange the field. Sakuya also helps against Megacolony rest abilities.
The main focus for this deck is to ride CoCo over CoCo for as many times possible. Then, clearing out the soul with One Who Gazes at the Truth. Truth with Glace makes the perfect column for almost any situation as they will reach 16k, with or without soul. Also, depending on the situation, recycling heal triggers can help a lot. This build will be pretty cheap with the upcoming Extra Booster 5. The only cards missing from that booster would be Lulu, Security Guardian, Promise Daughter and maybe the need for a second draw, if the booster doesn't get one.

Limavady councillors will decide if the iconic statue of Manannán Mac Lir that was stolen from Binevenagh should be replaced.
Councillors will vote on Tuesday night on a proposal offering the option to replace the stolen six-foot tall fibre glass sculpture using mild steel and at two to three times the size costing of approximately £30,000.
Speaking ahead of the meeting, Sinn Fein Councillor Anne Brolly said: "The fact it's in such an isolated place and if it was stolen for fundamental religious reasons, then will whoever stole it do it again, and how would we ensure the safety of the statue. We are talking about ratepayers' money and I think if it is decided to replace the statue we would have to have an open competition with new criteria and re-advertise it for all artists and give everyone a chance."
TUV Colr. Boyd Douglas isn't enthusiastic about replacing the statue in any shape or form.
"I felt the original statue was paganistic and I felt it should never have been erected under those terms. We were told at the time the statue wasn't costing Council much money," said Colr. Douglas, who said if replaced using steel it may well become a target of metal thieves. "I can't see any point in putting a statue on top of a mountain where there is no one around and where it is vulnerable from the start. To replace it would cost Council money and I wouldn't be in favour of spending ratepayers' money on this, so I'm not enthusiastic about replacing it."
SDLP Councillor Gerry Mullan doesn't believe a new statue needs to be two to three times the size of the original sculpture.
"I would fear it may be interpreted as an antagonistic gesture which may encourage further vandalism," said Colr. Mullan. "Personally, I would be happy to see Mannanán back and replaced in his original form."
Ulster Unionist Colr. Edwin Stevenson said: "I would like to see it replaced with something similar, but certainly not three times as big and most definitely not three times the cost; that would be a bit much. A lot of thought is needed to see what it would be made of, and while no one is sure why it was stolen we need to do what we can to make sure not it wouldn't be stolen again. I would certainly be against spending £30,000 and I would hope no councillor would be in favour of spending that sort of money."
Colr. Stevenson added: "No-one had the right to steal it, whatever religion or Christian belief they had. There is no religion I am aware of that condones theft."
The man who poured his heart and soul into the sculpture, artist Darren John Sutton from Dungannon said the worldwide outpouring of support provided him with some comfort and makes him feel proud people held his work in such esteem.

Your Unexpected RA "Surprises"
Join the conversation! Log in or create an account.
I have an unexpected surprise! Everytime I took a breath, there was a squeeze on my heart! Never had this before and it lasted 24 hours!
My reactions to biologics were surprises that just kept coming. I had read about increased susceptibility to Shingles and Gout, both did develop after I started treatment. But the swelling, difficulty breathing through nose, anemia, depressed eGFR and dreadful eczema… well none of my doc suspected these were related to the biologics. None of them cleared my Scleritis, and we just kept changing flavors hoping one would work. Finally when I said 'Enough!' and stopped taking biologics then all those problems resolved, except for my old nemesis Scleritis.,. and the pain it brings. Ugh.
I think the biggest surprise to RA was how it affects your whole body. Not just your joints.. how it affects your muscles, organs. How one minute you feel good. The next, you're overcome with pain, fatigue. How the ra travels throughout or body. You never know where it will pop up. Also, comments from people who have no clue. What ra is . I was diagnosed 9 years ago. I was never sick, always healthy,ate healthy, exercised daily. Then bammmmmm. Woke up one morning with huge lumps on my wrists. Very painful. Dr treated it as tendinitis.. Two months later, he joints in my hands were swollen. Dr did all the blood work on every kind of disease you can imagine. Nothing. Not even ra showed up. Rheumatologist said it was ra. Mine seem to accelerate very quickly. Within a year I was in a wheelchair. The hip joints were gone. Two years after diagnosis I went to the Cleveland clinic in Cleveland, Ohio. Thank God I did, they put me on the right mess. I had two cmplete hip replacements. Are things perfect? No. The pain can be horrendous, the brain fog. Ugh.. the fatigue, hate it.. not sleeping, help… but I can manage it all. I have to. I have RA. BUT IT DOES NOT HAVE ME… I live a almost normal life. Lol. I am able to do my crafting, hiking, travel. But then there are days I can't do much.
My unexpected surprises are how frequently & randomly these surprises pop-up with absolutely no rhyme or reason to them. I've stopped wracking my brain and behaving like Sherlock Holmes in trying to tie all the evidence together to get to a solution. As we all know, RA doesn't work like that.
After my second infusion of Rituxan, I had a general feeling of sickness- more so than normal. I kept saying "I just don't feel right"… two days ago, I passed out cold. I was out of it for quite a while- didn't recognize my daughte, said a lot of strange things, etc. I don't remember passing out or anything after that- I came fully to when the fire department put me in the ambulance.
I have a UTI- I had no symptoms. It wrecked havoc on me. What's scares me the most? If bacteria in my urine can cause THAT, what's gonna happen if I get REALLY sick? I've been diagnosed for two years. I'm 53. And I'm scared, exhausted, and in a lot of pain. I know I'm stronger than RA, but damn…
Hi I had a similar experience when methotrexate masked a UTI until it was really bad. I had no symptoms and kept injecting each week, continued to lower my immune system until bang!
Really scary experience! M x
I was diagnosed with RA at 18. My disease was very classic for years. I've been on every known treatment there was, especially as new things were discovered. I had been doing a lot better since the creation of biologics, but in the past few years the "surprises" have really been piling on! Sjögren's syndrome and all that entails, major fatigue, OA, heart & lung issues,sleep apnea, medication side effects, you name it! I feel like everyday I have new symptoms to tackle. Why didn't anyone tell me about all this oh-so-many years ago?
How do we know if it is related to RA and not a symptom on it's own? I thought my new symptom of neuropathy in my hands and especially my feet was my RA – very symmetrical. My rheumatologist could treat it, but I wanted to root it out a bit more and she sent me to a neurologist who asked about my diet and supplements – a first for me! I tested very high in B-6 and discontinued the supplement and slowly I got better – no symptom now 4 months later.
Wow! I wonder what mine are. I take all kinds of supplements.

Anything worth doing well takes hard work and unfortunately, so many people don't appreciate or respect the craft of screenwriting and how difficult it actually is. Ideas are a dime a dozen, but it's the actual execution of the ideas put into 108-120 pages of script that takes self-discipline, hard work and commitment. Writers often think of new ideas when they're stuck in Act 2 or they have problems with the Act 3 climax. Other writers get discouraged when they're beginning at Fade In and realize they have over 100 more pages to go. They usually wonder what to do, because everything seems so unwieldy and they have no idea. The thought of having over 100 pages of script from beginning to end can seem quite formidable to anyone.
To make writing a screenplay more manageable you need to break down your 108-120 pages into scenes and acts. This allows your material to be easier to write and you won't lose your way in the middle of your script.
Today, with the popularity of novels being made into films, many novelists would like to adapt their own fiction into a screenplay if only they knew how. That is why so many novels that are adapted into screenplays aren't written by the novelist, but by a screenwriter. The two forms of writing are so completely different. Screenwriting has specific rules and the construction has to deal with your structure. Story structure is what good screenwriting is all about—a blueprint for laying out a story.
By now your blueprint for screenwriting is almost completed. You've laid down the foundation, constructed the framework, built your story and developed your characters. Now, you need to design your blueprint into a definite structure.
When you build a home it must have a floor plan showing the number of floors and the layout of the rooms on each floor. When you construct your screenplay it must have a layout, which is made up of scenes and acts.
The average length of a motion picture or a television movie is approximately 90 minutes to two hours. Knowing this approximate time limit is helpful, because it allows you to write the correct number of pages for your screenplay, since each page of screenplay equals a minute of film. A screenplay with 120 pages would be a two hour film.
A sure sign that you're a beginner would be if you'd write a 300 page screenplay. Nobody would read it let alone buy it. They will have neither the time nor the inclination. It will be clear to them that you don't understand the craft of screenwriting, which consists of acts and scenes written in a specific amount of pages.
What is a scene? A scene is a unit of drama, just as a brick is a unit of a building. You lay out each scene as you would lay bricks on a building. Each scene is laid down upon the scene preceding it, just as each brick is laid upon another brick. By constructing your scenes this way you will build a solid foundation for all the scenes in your screenplay. Every scene you write must be connected, from your opening scene, which sets up the problem, through to the climactic scene which ends your screenplay.
A scene, like your screenplay, has a beginning, a middle, and an end. You can think of your scene as a mini-screenplay, having all the same elements. In other words, your scene starts at one point of action and leads to another, which is the climax or end of your scene. As in a screenplay, you need to know the ending of your scene first, before you start writing it, and work backwards from your ending to the opening.
Every scene has a purpose. Without a purpose, the scene doesn't work. Before any students in my class write a scene, I have them ask, "What is the purpose or overall reason of this scene?"
Finding the purpose of your scene helps to give your scene focus. Perhaps the purpose of your scene is to introduce a love interest, show a crime being committed, or to plant a necessary clue for a detective to discover. Knowing your purpose keeps your writing solid and on track, and gives you a direction to follow. Can you tell your scene in a sentence or two?
If you're writing a scene that shows a man taking a woman on a first date, where is the best place to start the scene? The best place to start your scene is in the middle of the action! The middle of the ac tion means exactly what it says. The couple on a first date could be sitting together in a restaurant having dinner. Or they could be driving in his car on the way to a party.
You would never start your scene showing him driving to her apartment, parking the car, walking down the street to the apartment entrance, ringing the bell to enter, waiting for the elevator, riding the elevator to her floor, knocking at her door and introducing himself to her when she opens the door. This is all unnecessary and boring. Who cares how he gets to her apartment? It would slow down your story and waste time because nothing is happening!
On the other hand, if you want to show something happen to the man on the way to her apartment, then you would need to start the scene with him going to it. Maybe on the way to her apartment the man gets mugged or he sees a robbery in progress. Then it would be necessary to open the scene showing him on his way to pick her up, if that is the purpose of your scene. It is important for you to know what you want to accomplish in the scene before you start writing. If you can't state the purpose in a sentence or two, then rethink your scene or eliminate it, because it isn't focused.

Statins in hepatobiliary diseases : effects, indications and risks
Price: €10,00
|Background and study aims : Statins are among the most frequently
used medications. Our aim was to study their indications
or contraindications in hepatobiliary diseases.
Patient and Methods : This study was stimulated by a patient
with PBC, marked hypercholesterolemia and cardiac problems.
Results : Besides a lipid lowering effect, statins have other benefits,
such as prevention of arterosclerosis, reduction of the risk of
developing diabetes and inhibition of fibrogenesis. The effects
depend on the type of statin, the genetic and acquired characteristics
of the patient and the interaction with other medications. Side
effects such as myopathy and liver toxicity are rather rare but
should be monitored. The use of statins in liver disease is not clearly
defined. Hyperlipidaemia is a risk factor for arteriosclerosis in
NAFLD (Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease), but fibrates might
constitute the treatment of choice. Preliminary data suggest that
biochemical and histological improvement in NAFLD might be
obtained with atorvastatin or pravastatin. The use of statins in the
medical therapy of gallstones remains unclear. Combination therapy
might have a beneficial effect in cases of stones with mixed
composition. Patients with Primary Biliary Cirrhosis or with
chronic cholestasis in general have high HDL-cholesterol levels but
a large amount of Lipoprotein X particles, which have a protective
effect. As such, statin therapy is often not really indicated.
Conclusion : When cardiovascular problems arise in patients
with chronic cholestasis, an underlying factor should be looked for.
The lipid abnormalities depend also on the stage of the PBC. [Product Details...]
Transanal endoscopic microsurgery (TEM) vs radical surgery (RS) in the treatment of rectal cancer : Indications, limitations, prospectives. A review
Price: €10,00
|Background and study aims : Principal goal in the management
of any patient with rectal cancer is to provide an optimal chance
for cure while maintaining their quality of life. Transanal endoscopic
microsurgery (TEM) is a minimal invasive procedure that
allows full thickness local excision or rectal tumors. The role or
TEM in the treatment of rectal cancer remains controversial. The
aim of this study was to review the evidence related to the role of
TEM compared to radical surgery in the treatment of rectal cancer.
Patients and methods : We reviewed 5 studies (two controlled
randomized and three non-randomized) comparing outcome after
TEM vs. radical surgery (RS), either open or laparoscopic, in
patients with rectal cancer. We evaluated the results in terms of
safety of the procedure as well as its efficacy.
Results : Hospital stay, complication rate and overall morbidity
and mortality were lower in the TEM groups in all studies. With
the exception of one study, recurrence was slightly (but non-significantly)
increased in the TEM groups. No difference for T2
tumors with TEM vs. laparoscopic resection was seen though.
Overall survival was not statistically different.
Conclusions : TEM is a safe, effective minimal invasive method
for treatment of T1 rectal carcinomas and possibly T2 carcinomas
in selected patients after neoadjuvant chemoradiation. Its role in
advanced tumor stages should be further defined. [Product Details...]

Indianapolis, Indiana – After entering the 2019 NCAC Women's Tennis Tournament as the fifth seed, the Wittenberg University Women's Tennis team finished sixth overall in the eight-team tournament after dropping a 5-1 decision against sixth-seeded Wooster on Saturday morning in the fifth-place match at North Central High School in Indianapolis.
The Tigers, who finished the 2018-19 season with an overall record of 8-10, posted their best finish at the NCAC Tournament since also finishing sixth overall at the 2012 Championships.
Who Stood Out
While the final score was 5-1 in favor of the Fighting Scots, it was not at all indicative of how close the match really was as two of the three doubles flights went to the tiebreaker.
In the top doubles flight, the tandem of junior Sarah Gallup and sophomore Harunya Ravindran suffered a narrow 8-7 (7-2) setback against Qingyue Li and Shannon Sertz, while the senior duo of Carli Milano and Alivia Livesay dropped even more of a heartbreaker with an 8-7 (8-6) loss against Laura Haley and Sarah Duran.
Despite entering singles play down 3-0, the Tigers refused to give in as Ravindran picked up a point with a 6-1, 6-4 win over Haley in the fourth flight. However, the Scots were able to secure the match with wins in the third and sixth singles flights. In the third flight, Livesay dropped a 6-1, 6-0 decision against Sertz, while sophomore Kathleen McGuff lost a 6-1, 7-6 (7-2) match in the sixth flight.

Virginia Port Authority Eyes Tighter Ties with Cuba
The Virginia Port Authority has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Cuban National Port Authority to evaluate commercial opportunities between the Port of Virginia and Cuba's newly opened Port of Mariel Special Development Project.
The MOU establishes a platform for cooperation and information sharing aimed at developing links between Cuba and Virginia to support waterborne trade and investment, improve customer service, enhance collaboration to achieve improved business practices, and increase the level of vessel services available between the two entities.
Under the deal, the two port authorities may undertake initiatives including data interchange, market studies, training and technological interchange.
"This agreement will enhance Virginia's trading relationship with Cuba and supports our efforts to build the new Virginia economy," said Virginia Governor Terry McAuliffe announcing the deal.
"Virginia enjoys a uniquely productive economic relationship with Cuba, and this MOU will generate additional opportunities for economic and cultural exchange."
Cuba's $1 billion port project will make Mariel the largest port in the Caribbean, with a capacity to handle approximately 1.3 million shipping containers a year. It will also allow Mariel to serve as a trans-shipment hub for the region.
According to Secretary of Agriculture and Forestry Todd Haymore, the agreement will help position Virginia to provide container service for agricultural products such as poultry, pork and apples, which are shipped in refrigerated containers.
"Last year, Cuba purchased $25 million in agricultural exports from Virginia, all in bulk shipments," he added.
"Despite Virginia's export success to Cuba, there is currently no direct container service between Virginia and Cuba," said Tom Capozzi, Chief Sales Officer of Virginia International Terminals.
"Our agribusiness companies that ship products in containers could benefit from enhanced cooperation between our port terminals and the Port of Mariel, especially as Mariel becomes an important trans-ship service provider for the region."
While the trade mission to Havana yielded a series of positive results, Governor McAuliffe noted that the full potential of opportunities with Cuba will never be realized until the U.S. embargo against Cuba is ended.

The creative makers among us have much to offer their communities and we commit ourselves therefore to fostering that creativity. It is our belief, too, that finding community-based solutions to the real problems communities face can and should be a collaboration in which the creativity of artists and writers play vital, enduring roles for enriching the lives of all.
Each summer, MFA students attend the week-long Fishtrap Conference, participating in generative writing workshops, readings, panels, lectures, conversations, and more. The Fishtrap Conference is followed by a week of concentrated coursework on the EOU campus, foregrounding craft and critique. The remainder of the year, coursework continues at a distance. Our award-winning faculty mentors work closely with students on their writing projects, as well as provide instruction in contemporary literature, rhetoric, and special topics crafted to address student interests.
The Grande Ronde Valley and nearby Wallowa Valley also are gateways to Eastern Oregon's Wallowa Mountains and Oregon's largest wilderness, the Eagle Cap Wilderness, which provide an exceptional resource for student writers enrolled in our Wilderness, Ecology, and Community program.
We are determined to provide students with meaningful, hands-on learning opportunities such as practica in professional editing and publishing with our award-winning literary magazines, basalt and Oregon East, as well as with our affiliated presses Lynx House and Lost Horse. In doing so, our graduates develop creative skills that allow them to live more meaningful, productive lives in more prosperous, resilient communities.

(Reuters) - President Barack Obama said on Friday that he will not negotiate with Congress over raising the debt ceiling, something Congress will need to agree to do early in 2014. "It is not something that is a negotiating tool. It's not leverage," he said, telling reporters in a news conference that he does not expect a stand-off over the issue. "I've got to assume folks aren't crazy enough to start that all over again," Obama said. (Reporting by Steve Holland, Mark Felsenthal, Roberta Rampton; Editing by Chizu Nomiyama)

Juul had major success marketing its e-cigs on Twitter and Instagram
A Silicon Valley
e-cig startup called Juul has surged in popularity,
amassing 70% of the e-cig market.
The company was recently valued at $15
billion, but faces a
growing backlash from public health experts and scientists
who worry about its popularity among young people.
Juul maintains that its products are for adult smokers
who want to move away from traditional cigarettes.
A recent study reveals that Juul stood out from other
e-cig companies by marketing its devices on social media
platforms like Twitter, YouTube, and Instagram.
That marketing campaign was a big success, the study
suggests, with Juul's social media activities being "highly
correlated" with sales.
One big question about the booming Silicon Valley e-cigarette
startup Juul is whether the company deliberately
marketed its products to teens.
Juul has said that its sleek vaping devices are intended for
adults trying to quit smoking traditional cigarettes, and that
its marketing has had
little impact on its sales. But a
recent study raises some questions. It suggests that Juul's
social media ads — which were posted across platforms popular
with young people including YouTube, Twitter, and Instagram —
were a runaway success.
Public health experts, scientists, and the Food and Drug
Administration have been
targeting vaping companies in recent months after dozens of
reports surfaced which suggested they were encouraging more young
people to both vape
and smoke. A handful of
researchers has said that a combination of the company's
marketing efforts and product offerings — such as slick designs
and sweet flavors — are intended to
hook young people on nicotine.
The researchers behind the
paper, published this summer in the journal Tobacco Control,
concluded that Juul stood out from other e-cig brands by
advertising predominantly on social media, as opposed to in other
places like on billboards or in magazines. And the campaign took
off, according to the researchers, who wrote that sales of the
flash-drive-style devices were "highly correlated" with its
social media posts.
The social media campaign had another added benefit: it was
cheaper than traditional marketing strategies, the researchers
The social media blitz wasn't all directly from Juul, however —
further complicating any clean-up efforts designed to help scale
back the products' allure among teens. Several other corporate
social media accounts besides Juul's official platforms heavily
promoted Juul products.
The overall impact was significant, the researchers concluded.
"Targeted cross-platform social media campaigns, although they
cost little, can have substantial influence on people's
attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors related to these products,"
they wrote.
'Taking advantage of the reach and accessibility of these
An ad on Juul's website from
Jidong Huang, an associate professor of health management and
policy at Georgia State University and lead author of the study,
told the Washington Times over the summer that he felt the
company's use of social media was a deliberate attempt to target
young people.
Juul is "taking advantage of the reach and accessibility of these
platforms to target youth and young adults," Huang said, adding,
"basically everybody can see their product because there are no
Juul has been adamant in stating that its devices are not
intended for young people. The company did not respond to
Business Insider's request for comment.
Many social media users, however, are young people. On Twitter,
more than a quarter of users are
under 18, according to a Pew survey. That platform has been
particularly lucrative for Juul, according to the researchers.
YouTube meanwhile is is the single most recognized content brand
among kids aged 12-15, a
2017 report concluded. To that end, a Juul spokesperson
told Business Insider in July that the company had worked
with Instagram to remove several accounts and thousands of posts
that were inappropriately targeting youth.
But before then, a handful of social media accounts — including
Juul's official platforms — attracted the attention of thousands.
And that attention appears to have had strong links to sales of
Juul's products, the authors wrote.
In particular, the researchers found that the number of
Juul-related tweets — most of which were posted last year — was
"highly correlated" with the company's quarterly retail sales,
which they tracked using data from market research company
Nielsen. That said, correlation isn't necessarily causation. The
researchers couldn't say that the tweets necessarily led to the
sales, only that the two were linked.
"The growth trend in Juul tweets noticeably tracks well [with]
the growth in Juul retail sales," the researchers wrote.
The relationship between Juul-related tweets and Juul sales was
so strong, the authors found, that "the number of tweets alone
accounted for 93% of the variation in Juul sales in retail
stores." Put another way, the amount of Juul tweets could be used
to roughly predict how many Juuls would be sold at any given
'When you look at the flavoring names, one has to wonder'
According to Huang and his co-authors, Juul's official Instagram
account, called JuulVapor, garnered tens of thousands of "likes"
by evoking feelings of "relaxation, freedom, and sex appeal."
While that strategy is somewhat standard in the advertising
industry, something that made Juul's campaign stand out to the
researchers was its emphasis on flavors.
At the time, those flavors included options like "Fruit
Medley," "Cool Cucumber," and "Creme Brulee."
Several researchers
have said that sweet, candy-like flavors are part of what
makes e-cigs attractive to teens.
"Most scientists believe flavorings are used to target teenagers
into becoming users,"
Ana Rule, a professor of environmental health and engineering
at Johns Hopkins University,
told Business Insider this summer.
"There are of course many other factors such as marketing
and peer-pressure, but when you look at the flavoring names, one
has to wonder."
With that in mind, the city of San Francisco also recently
voted to
ban all flavored tobacco products. And on Thursday,
Altria announced that it was
pulling two of its e-cig products and eliminating all of
its flavor offerings except tobacco and menthol until
"the current situation with youth use," is resolved.
Earlier this year, Juul changed the names of its flavor
offerings. "Cool Cucumber," for example, is now simply
"Cucumber;" "Creme Brulee" is now "Creme;" and "Fruit Medley" is
now "Fruit."
EonSmoke: The most-followed account for Juul products
Importantly, the new study found that the social media blitz
wasn't all Juul's direct doing. Beyond Juul's own Instagram
account, at least seven other accounts that promoted the Juul
collectively amassed more than a quarter million
followers on the platform, the authors wrote. And despite Juul's
preventive actions over the summer, many of those accounts remain
active in one form or another, Business Insider found.
Online e-cig retailer EonSmoke was the creator of one of the
accounts, called "@Doit4Juul."
The account asked followers to share selfies, photos, and videos
documenting themselves using Juul devices. And share they did.
Images included youngsters jamming as many Juuls as they could in
their mouths at once and then blowing out massive
plumes of vapor; children openly using Juul devices in
classrooms; and kids sharing tips on how to sneak the devices
into school by encasing them in the bodies of Sharpie pens.
"This campaign proved highly successful," the researchers wrote,
noting that the account amassed close to 82,000 followers and
quickly became the most-followed account featuring Juul products
on Instagram as of February 2018.
Over the summer, Juul worked with Instagram to remove the
account, along with at least two others.
But although the official account is gone, the #Doit4Juul hashtag
remains active. Several similar accounts have also sprung up in
recent months across the platform, including one called
"Doingit4Juul" which shows several youngsters in
braces and even in
classrooms using the devices.
Using the "#" symbol, anyone with an Instagram account can post
to the series. At present, roughly 7,000 posts exist under the
#Doit4Juul label alone. One of them
features a young boy in a colorful shirt with a gold plastic
crown on his head inhaling the vapor of two Juuls at once, then
blowing out a large cloud.
"These kids doing this sh*t," the post's caption reads.

After a time of decay comes the turning point. It is everybody's individual choice and duty in public discourse to change the direction, the perception and the narrative. It requires courage, conviction and perseverance to break from the crowd and forge ahead on the righteous path.
As enough people become aware of this, the movement goes from barely discernible to becoming an inextinguishable passion for many to join and move it forward. Dramatic and sweeping changes will be the result.

Mascaraman is back
In the same match the Saffa bloods fell for 1 (Strauss), 11 (Trott) and 27 (KP). We are waiting for Michael Vaughan's statement. Unfortunately, he is not Pakistani. Otherwise all match fixing allegations would have taken priority over hair commitments. Yes, he looks like a creep there.
Speaking of Vaughan, he has told the press that the Saffa bowling attack has only Dale Steyn really so the Poms can just practice against machines and they'll be ready for the tests. Luke Wright has promptly gone into hiding, Morne Morkel just absorbed his words (that's all I am going to tell you for now) and Mickey Aurthur is on a ledge somewhere screaming "More Michael, more!". Of course he could also be talking about the hair.
Another interesting piece of article on Crapinfo is about how Andy F. and Andy S. are worried that they won't be able to balance a test side without a proper all-rounder. The picture used was that of Luke Wright's. Golden boy Barbie got this mention however:
Broad at No. 7 would be the most attacking, almost gung-ho, route England could take -"Let's hit South Africa with all we've got." For better or worse, it would make for entertaining cricket.
Just entertaining, nothing else. Last seen, Barbie is wearing her prom dress and remembering her prom queen days to make herself feel better about the fact that she is STILL not considered an all-rounder. Even after the Ashes.
Life is so unfair at times.

Remember last time the England team used a bowling machine for training? It came alive and ran over Wright's foot. Oh please, can it happen again?
Micheal Vaughan looks so smarmy in that photo!!

Sometimes dream to pursue higher education are accompanied by huge expenses as the fees structure of the best local and foreign universities is quite expensive. As far as the credit history or credit score of students is concerned, either they have no or bad credit history. Due to this reason, they are in fix either they will get the education loan or not. But in order to avail education all you need to do is simply apply as there are a lot of options available including Federal loans, private education loans with either higher rate of interest or involvement of a co-signer with a stronger credit history than yours. Explore all the options and choose wisely.
Loan Options Available
For students with no or bad credit large number of private and federal loan options are available with terms mostly suitable for students. These options need to be examined very properly as there are certain limitations of loan schemes that are offered to the students with low credit history. Either you don't get the full amount as you have requested or the interest rate is unfavorable. Scrutinize all the available options and pursue higher studies with loan aid.
Federal Student Loans
Often students with bad credit apply for federal student loans as there is no credit check for these loan schemes. If you apply outside the interest rates will be quite high whereas in the case of federal student loans the interest rates are very low and the subsidy options are also available with the students. This means that the government pays for the interest on a loan that the student has availed for the period the student is still studying in school. This is the most basic of the student loan option available.
Though there are a lot of options available including subsidized or non-subsidized loans, the loan amount approved is less than that of the total education expenses. This is the only drawback with federal student loans. The term period for the federal loan is generally 10 to 25 years. There are certain terms in federal student loans also which include having the citizenship of the state or full-fill the terms of non-citizen eligibility, then you need to fill the FAFSA form which a free application for federal student aid through the government website.
The loan amount approved is influenced by the fact that either you are getting financial aid from your parents or not. The repayment process is very well structured. All the possibilities or troubles are well considered that include deferment, unemployment or any other emergency due to which you are unable to pay the loan or interest amount and required aid is given accordingly. There is a provision of grace period of up to 6 months available for students also.
Private Student Loans
If the loan amount offered by the federal student loan is not enough to meet the education needs of the students, they can always opt for private loan options available from a large number of banks and other financial institutions. But while you opt for private loans the interest rate is higher as compared to federal loans and a co-signer with a strong credit is generally required if your own credit is poor. There is a certain type of private loans available that require you to full-fill certain terms before the loan amount is transferred to you.
Since it is a student loan the terms to return the loan are kept quite flexible and provisions are made that the student does not feel the burden of the loan while he is pursuing education or is unemployed for a certain period after the completion of education. The major various types of loan available in the United States are based on the terms whether you are a student of the U.S or a foreign national studying there. The two most favorable loan options available are discussed in depth for students to have complete knowledge about them.
Ascent Independent Student Loan
If you are a citizen of U.S. or you are a permanent resident then you may apply for this student loan irrespective of the fact whether you are a junior, senior or a graduate student. The student need not show any credit history or a co-signer to obtain the loan. The amount ranging from 2000 to 200000 dollars can be availed in the form of a loan with a term of 10 to 15 years. The repayment of the loan starts after 6 months from the date the student leaves the school.
The students are bound to full-fill certain requirements including- no reported bankruptcy over last 5 years, not defaulter against any government or student loan, no unsatisfied judgments, no charge-offs etc., in order to meet with the credit requirements.
M Power Student Loan
If you are an international student and do not own the citizenship of the country than a loan option available for you in order to complete your education is M Power student loan. The students having a deferred action for childhood action status are also covered under this scheme. The loan amount sanctioned ranges from 2000 to 50000 US dollars with a loan term of 10 years. During study period only interest amount is to be paid by the students and after that full payment of the loan installments in 10 years.
The Bottom Line
Higher education is very important for an individual in order to compete in the competitive world and student loans available from various federal government and private companies help you pay the fees for not so affordable education. Closely examine all the schemes available and opt for the best-suited scheme so that you may complete your higher education and can give a boost to your career and your assets. Education is the best investment one can make and the returns in this investment are most profitable than any business deal or investment.

Product Fetures:
EvvGC is simple 3/2axis, open source brushless gimbal controller based on STM32 and MPU6050. All components are widely available on eBay, Farnell and other stores. STM32F103RC was chosen because it is cheap, has enough processing power even for complex algorithms, and enough timers and other peripheral for 3axis control. Controller uses mosfets instead of L6234. This allows to use small, light weight mosfets(sot23, sot363) for gopro controllers, and bigger mosfets(so8, D2PAK) for DSLR's, RED's and other big cameras. Source code is written with KEIL, which has demo version with 32kB of code limitation. Now ~20kB is used, so there is some space left for improvements. ST's Standard peripheral drivers uses most of the space, therefore low level coding for i2c, timers, uart should reduce code size if needed. Other software could be used, but KEIL is simple to use, and I would like to keep this project as simple as possible. I am not software developer, so code is quite ugly, it is more like draft for further development, also STM32 is quite new for me, but code works and performs quite wellMy goal is to create simple, but flexible, high performance 2/3axis gimbal controller for cameras from gopro to dslr and bigger.Here is some test videos of 2 and 3 axis stabilization:
