Another important factor to be considered is the durability of the wood, especially in regards to moisture. If the finished project will be exposed to moisture (e.g. outdoor projects) or high humidity or condensation (e.g. in kitchens or bathrooms), then the wood needs to be especially durable in order to prevent rot. Because of their oily qualities, many tropical hardwoods such as teak and mahogany are popular for such applications.[9]
Hard to determine which stain you need in that bespattered collection of cans? An easy-to-make "stain index," courtesy of reader Bob Jacek, solves the problem. Section off boards of your favorite woods into squares with masking tape, and apply the different stains across the width of each wood type (pine, oak, birch, etc.). When the stains are dry, brush on lengthwise your regular finishes—polyurethane, water-based polyurethane, oil, orange shellac, etc. You'll be able to tell how each stain looks with each finish. Label each one. Use both sides of each board, and you'll have a wooden encyclopedia of stain and finish combinations. Plus: How to stain wood evenly.
Nightstand table plans have everything you need to create a bedside table to keep every needy thing at reach at night time. This Nigh Stand plan is quite different in design from the most of the other plans. This stand has not only the three regular drawers but also having a hidden drawer that uses a secret locking mechanism to keep contents securely.
Particleboard is a manufactured wood product composed of sawdust, wood chips or wood shavings mixed with a resin. This concoction is layered, compressed, subjected to heat and cut to shape, resulting in a sheet material that can be used for a variety of things. It's often used as shelving or as an underlayment for carpet. Plastic laminate may be applied to both sides to create a product that can be used to create everything from furniture to cabinets to wall paneling. Head into IKEA and you'll find acres of particleboard.

Every project needs some tools and material to build on. The tools and material you will need in this plan include Miter saw, jigsaw, measuring tape screws and screwdriver etc. We will suggest you take high-quality material for the plan. Read the source tutorial and watch the video tutorial below for more details. Follow all the steps properly to make a nice and strong Rustic cooler. The tutorial explains the procedure for building this awesome gift. Make sure to use the only high-quality material for any woodworking project.
Pocket screw joinery is a system—employing special drill and driver bits—used to join boards or pieces of plywood to one another. Installing pocket screws involves using a jig to drill a sharply angled, 15-degree hole through the back of one board, then driving a special screw through that hole into the second board to draw them tightly together. Learn how to use pocket screws here. It's often used in cabinetmaking and furniture building. Here's how to build cabinets with pocket screws. The term "pocket" comes from the design of the hole which contains an upper "pocket" for the head of the screw to push against; this pocket also hides the head of the screw.
Aside from the privacy it offers, a latticework porch trellis is a perfect way to add major curb appeal to your home for $100 or less. The trellis shown here is made of cedar, but any decay-resistant wood like redwood, cypress or treated pine would also be a good option. Constructed with lap joints for a flat surface and an oval cutout for elegance, it's a far upgrade from traditional premade garden lattice. As long as you have experience working a router, this project's complexity lies mostly in the time it takes to cut and assemble. Get the instructions complete with detailed illustrations here.
The beauty of this project lies in the simplicity. All you need are 3 pieces of wood of your choice (though we must admit natural hardwoods will look incredible), sanding block, clamps, wood glue and finishing product. The hardest step of the whole tutorial is measuring – as always, measure 9 times, cut once! You wouldn't want to finish your project and then realize it doesn't have enough space to fit your DVD player, would you?
Cutting sandpaper is a quick way to dull your scissors or utility knife blade. Instead, I fastened a hacksaw blade to the edge of my workbench. I slipped a washer behind the blade at each of the mounting holes so a sheet of sandpaper to easily slides in behind the blade. I fold the paper where I want to cut, just as a reference. — Kim Boley. Try some of these storage solutions!

These things may be tiny in size, but building one is not that easy. It takes some serious woodworking knowledge and skill to build a nice wooden mobile stand. When I first saw one online, I just couldn't resist thinking of buying one. But when I saw the price, I was forced to rethink. Also, a woodwork lover like me cannot be contained with just one piece and I was not willing to spend on more than one. So instead I decided to build myself one. Yes, it took some doing but the final result was satisfying. Luckily, I found this awesome tutorial online that helped me build my first ever wooden phone holder.
A small oak table is a very useful wooden item for every household. You can yourself make a nice, strong and beautiful oak table suitable for any purpose. See the image below. As you can see, it is a small, yet good enough table to be used as a coffee table, lamp stand, breakfast table, etc. You can also find many other design variants on the internet. Choose the one you want for yourself and start making it now.
Some tools required for this project are hole saw, drilling machine, pencil, tape measure, clamps, etc. This tutorial explains every step properly with images so that anyone can make a wooden sofa sleeve easily. Those, who prefer a video tutorial, can visit the below link to a YouTube video that illustrates the process of building a DIY Sofa Sleeve Cupholder.
It is one of the easiest woodwork projects we are going to discuss today. Although it looks very easy to make, I still could not find any good tutorial on the internet that explains how to build this one. So I am here sharing an article link that gets the closest. The article explains how to make different kinds of DIY candle holders and what items you may need for the project.
Building a Wooden Office Desk Organizer is an easy task for a professional woodworker, but not so much for normal people like you and me. But that doesn't mean you cannot do this. Two years ago, I had almost no woodworking experience, but now I make most of my household and office wooden items by myself. This saves me a lot of money. And believe me when I say this; you can also manage to make wonderful wood items with a little practice and some woodworking experience.
This particular tray is made using reclaimed barn wood but the author of the project Beyond The Picket Fence surprised everyone with one fact: reclaimed barn wood has often some areas turned pink due to cow urine. If you check the project more closely, you'll also notice some areas of the tray being almost bright pink. That's something you don't see every day!
This time I surprised one of my favorite dice games and took it outside. I made a set of wooden dice in just a few hours, and instead of sitting in the room and doing nothing, we are taking our dice game out into the yard. With this set of wooden dice, dice games are becoming our favorite backyard game. Check out the step by step tutorial below so you can make your own.

Old doors laid across sawhorses make great temporary workbenches, but they take up a lot of space when you're not using them. Instead of full-size doors, I use bifold doors with hinges so I can fold them up when I'm done working. They're also easier to haul around in the pickup for on-the-road jobs. — Harry Steele. Here are 12 more simple workbenches you can build.
Pocket screws create a solid, simple-to-make joint. Because of the size and visibility of the hole, it's usually located in areas that are concealed or rarely seen (though special plugs can be used to fill the holes.) Craig Sommerfeld, founder of The Kreg Tool Company, is credited with popularizing pocket screw joinery in the 1980s. The company today is the leader in creating the jigs, clamps and screws used to create pocket screw joints. Learn how to use a pocket screw jig in woodworking projects.
The rubber cushion on my old palm sander was wearing thin around the edges. Because of its age, I couldn't find a replacement pad. As I was drinking my beverage with a foam can cover around it, I realized I could cut the foam to fit the sander and glue it on. I peeled off the old pad, cleaned the metal base and attached the foam with contact cement. Works for clamp-on as well as stick-on sanding squares! You can find can covers at discount and convenience stores. — Allen J. Muldoon
For your kitchen, it can work as a knife rack. It gives you easy access to all essential tools while saving space. In addition, it adds a nice visual appeal to your kitchen wall.

Last time we looked at deceptions involved in faking calls, circumventing personal cell phone bans, and borrowing phones. Here is Part II of our catalog of telephonic deceptions.
- Faux hang-ups
- In these days of frequently broken cellular connections, we've all become accustomed to interrupted conversations. Usually, broken connections are due to malfunctions. But some people have taken advantage of the situation by actually terminating calls they no longer wish to continue. To avoid paying a social price if they do it angrily, they break the connection while they themselves are speaking calmly, as if engaged in the conversation. Their conversation partners then assume that the broken connection is a mishap, but the conversation breakers don't renew the connection, and they don't pick up if their partners try to renew.
- Common mistakes: breaking the connection while the other person is speaking, or breaking it while audibly angry.
- Background sounds made to order
- Background sounds might not be what they seem. You can buy recordings of background sounds from airports, train stations, busy streets, traffic jams, sports events, arguing kids, and more. There are even apps for recording your own custom background sounds, to ensure, for example, that flight number announcements match what they are supposed to be, or that the arguing kids are actually your kids.
- Common mistakes: re-using a recorded background sound once too often with the same person, or using a busy airport background when the airport in question is actually closed by weather or mishap.
- Caller ID spoofing
- Caller ID spoofing In telephone conversations,
background sounds might not
be what they seemwas the key technique used by the hackers working for News of the World. Using a paid service, the call initiator provides two phone numbers — the number to call, and the spoofed caller ID. The service then places the call to the first number in such a manner that it appears to have been originated from the second. This deception can make a call appear to come from a phone different from the originator's phone. Thus, for example, the originator can appear to be calling from work when actually calling from his or her mobile phone. If the originator's work phone is forwarded to his or her mobile phone, not even an immediate callback will unwrap the deception.
- Common mistake: failing to control the background sounds of the originator's location well enough to match the location of the spoofed phone.
Caller ID spoofing can present real security concerns. For example, in the News of the World scandal, Caller ID spoofing gave abusers access to voice mailboxes that were not protected by password access. Most voicemail systems do provide this option, but most users never turn it on. Is your voice mailbox protected by a password? First in this series Top Next Issue

- The Power Affect: How We Express Our Personal Power
- Many people who possess real organizational power have a characteristic
demeanor. It's the way they project their presence. I call this the power affect. Some people —
call them power pretenders — adopt the power affect well before they attain significant organizational
power. Unfortunately for their colleagues, and for their organizations, power pretenders can attain
organizational power out of proportion to their merit or abilities. Understanding the power affect is
therefore important for anyone who aims to attain power, or anyone who works with power pretenders.

Of course, I appreciate your response to my grousing and since I'm in my 2nd half of life, I know fully well that any new endeavor requires patience. It is not being excited about the prospect of making money; it is the frustration of being led down numerous rabitt holes. Instead of a straight forward survey, one just seems to spawn countless other questionaires.
At Book Off (49 W 45th St between Fifth and Sixth Aves; 212-685-1410), you'll get between 10 and $1.50 for your fiction and nonfiction titles. The Strand Book Store (828 Broadway at 12th St; 212-473-1452, strandbooks.com), meanwhile, offers up to one-fourth of the Strand's selling price, depending on how well preserved the tome is, how likely it is to sell and what the shop's current inventory is like. "I'd love to have a first-edition copy of James Joyce's Ulysses," says Strand co-owner Fred Bass. "If it was in good condition, you could get somewhere in the thousands of dollars." A newish copy of The Secret, meanwhile, will fetch up to $4.
CashCrate sends out literally thousands of payments a month to users just like you who spend time completing surveys and offers on CashCrate.com. How do they do it? Well, they do surveys and offers regularly. It really adds up! Your initial goal should be to meet minimum payout, which is $20.00. Making $20.00 in free cash is actually quite easy considering there are hundreds of surveys and offers available, but here are a few tips to get you to your goal faster:
…Marketing an eBook is definitely the hardest part. Ebooks have exploded in popularity and the market is unfortunately saturated with crap from people who thought they could write a quick eBook, put it on an affiliate network, and make millions. However, if you CAN find a good way to market (or possibly have others market by having it listed on affiliate networks) then an eBook can be a great way to make some residual income.
You could also opt to use existing websites for making money. These include both active income and passive income methods. For example, you could sell some used items or invest in creating some digital designs that then can be sold on merchandise. Again, devote a sizable portion of your time to passive income so that you can slowly build up earnings that will arrive on autopilot without any extra added effort.
Affiliate marketing presents a very low friction entry into selling products online. While you do need some type of audience to sell these products or services to, you could make a significant amount of money from home while doing it. Some products or services have very high earnings per click. That means, if you play your cards right, you could easily make a large profit on conversions by driving traffic to specific offers as long as you target the right interests.

{¶ 2} Jason Goldberg is the CEO of America's Floor Source, L.L.C. ("Floor Source"), which he founded in July 2000 after leaving his family's central Ohio business, Rite Rug. Floor Source is an Ohio limited-liability company that provides retail and wholesale flooring to consumers and builders. Joshua Homes was a central Ohio residential-home builder, founded by Eric Schottenstein. Schottenstein and Goldberg became acquainted around 1997, when Schottenstein went to Rite Rug to acquire special carpet for his luxury vacation home in Colorado. Goldberg and Schottenstein became friends.
{¶ 3} In the summer of 2000, Goldberg decided to leave his family business to start his own flooring business. In September 2000, Schottenstein cosigned a $200,000 line of credit for Floor Source at Bank One. Goldberg also signed a personal guarantee of the debt. To insulate himself from risk, Schottenstein asked Goldberg for a $200,000 cognovit promissory note paying Schottenstein $20,000 per year, and also required Goldberg to carry $200,000 in life insurance, with Schottenstein and his wife as beneficiaries.
Acquired by JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A.
{¶ 4} Floor Source's business began to take off within its first year — so much so that Goldberg anticipated that they would need an additional line of credit. Goldberg then approached Schottenstein about cosigning a $300,000 line of credit and proposed that the parties should enter into a consulting agreement whereby Floor Source would pay Schottenstein $3,000 per month. The consulting agreement provided that Schottenstein would serve as a general business advisor to Floor Source, on an as-needed basis. Floor Source's new $300,000 line of credit took effect in January 2002, and although Schottenstein did not sign the consulting agreement until November 2004, in July 2002, Floor Source began paying him a $3,000 monthly fee called for in the agreement. Apparently, unbeknownst to Goldberg, Schottenstein never executed the guarantee for the $300,000 line of credit. Later in 2002, Bank One determined that Goldberg was financially solvent enough to guarantee the loan without Schottenstein, so the bank released Schottenstein from any obligation on the $200,000 line of credit.
{¶ 5} In January 2003, Floor Source regularly provided flooring to Joshua Homes for its new homes. Joshua Homes apparently did a significant amount of such business with Floor Source. However, by November 2005, Joshua Homes's account with Floor Source had become seriously delinquent. At one point, Joshua Homes owed nearly $300,000 to Floor Source for labor and materials. In an effort to save Joshua Homes from bankruptcy, Schottenstein solicited loans from lenders and family alike and came up with a plan to pay off the company's debts by selling assets to pay reduced amounts to its creditors.
{¶ 6} In May 2006, Schottenstein sent a reduction agreement to Floor Source, proposing that he would repay Floor Source $178,838.38, or roughly 60 percent of the balance owed, and that Schottenstein would personally guarantee that amount of payment. Goldberg initially rejected the offer.
{¶ 7} Goldberg claimed that Schottenstein subsequently made a new proposal, whereby Joshua Homes would repay Floor Source $178,000, and Schottenstein would personally pay an additional $96,000. Reference was made to Schottenstein's plan to plow additional capital into Joshua Homes by selling some of his purported $6 million real estate portfolio. Goldberg claimed that he and Schottenstein agreed to this arrangement. Schottenstein later denied that he ever offered to pay $96,000 personally over and above the $178,000 mentioned in the so-called reduction agreement between Joshua Homes and Floor Source. The jury found Goldberg more credible on this point.
{¶ 8} Immediately after entering into this reduction agreement, Joshua Homes incurred an additional $100,000 in debt to Floor Source, and by December 2006, Joshua Homes's account with Floor Source was again delinquent. Having received no payments from Schottenstein personally towards the alleged $96,000 guarantee, in January 2007, Goldberg proposed that he would start applying a $3,000 monthly consulting-fee payment towards the $96,000 debt due under the consulting agreement between Floor Source and Schottenstein personally. Schottenstein did not disagree in writing or contest the claim of a $96,000 personal guarantee in writing.
{¶ 9} Ultimately, Schottenstein failed to make good on any of his debts to Floor Source, both personally and on behalf of Joshua Homes, and the parties retained counsel in anticipation of litigation. The parties were unable to reach any agreement, and in March 2008, Floor Source filed suit against Schottenstein and Joshua Homes for breach of contract and promissory estoppel. Schottenstein filed his answer and counterclaim, denying that he had agreed to personally repay Floor Source for any of Joshua Homes's debt, and alleged that it was Floor Source that had breached the parties' contract(s), not Joshua Homes.
{¶ 10} Initially, Schottenstein was represented by Vorys, Sater, Seymour and Pease, L.L.P. ("Vorys"), but retained Luper, Neidenthal Logan ("Luper firm") after Floor Source filed its complaint. About six months later, the Luper firm abruptly withdrew from the case, and Wiles, Boyle, Burkholder Bringardner Co., L.P.A. ("Wiles firm") undertook Schottenstein's representation. The Wiles firm, then, abruptly ended its representation of Schottenstein in February 2009, which is when current counsel, Freund, Freeze Arnold ("Freund"), assumed that role.
{¶ 11} When the Wiles firm withdrew, the discovery cutoff date for the lawsuit had already passed by more than a month. On March 9, 2009, Freund filed a motion on behalf of Schottenstein to modify the case schedule and vacate the trial date, which was set for the following month, April 6, 2009. The trial court did not issue a decision denying Freund's motion until June. However, on March 11, 2009, the trial court confirmed an April 6, 2009 trial date and ordered that the parties submit to mediation. Because of a docketing conflict, the trial court later continued the trial to July 13, 2009. The court also referred the case to a visiting judge.
{¶ 12} A jury trial was conducted. At the end of the trial, the jury found that (1) Schottenstein had made an oral agreement personally to pay $96,000 to Floor Source, (2) Schottenstein had breached the consulting agreement between Floor Source and Schottenstein personally, and that (3) Schottenstein was estopped from denying his promise to pay $96,000 to Floor Source on the personal guarantee. The jury awarded Floor Source $24,000 in damages for Schottenstein's breach of the consulting agreement and $96,000 on the personal-guarantee claim. The jury also sanctioned ending the consulting agreement between Floor Source and Schottenstein personally. The agreement had called for payments to Schottenstein and his wife for the duration of their lives.
{¶ 13} Following the verdict, Schottenstein moved for judgment notwithstanding the verdict, based on the court's denial of his motion to reopen discovery. The court denied Schottenstein's motion, finding, "[I]t appears that [the] records [Schottenstein] sought * * * were actually in [his own hands] prior to the filing of this lawsuit."
{¶ 14} Schottenstein and Joshua Homes filed a timely notice of appeal and now present six assignments of error for our consideration:
[I.] The trial court erred in overruling Appellants' motion to modify the case scheduling order while continuing the original trial date.
[II.] The trial court erred in entering judgment against Eric Schottenstein individually based upon the actions taken by him in his capacity as president of Joshua Homes.
[III.] The trial court erred in allowing the jury to interpret, without guidance from the trial court, unambiguous contract language.
[IV.] The trial court erred in permitting evidence of, and entering judgment against Eric Schottenstein individually for, an alleged oral promise to pay the debt of Joshua Homes, contrary to the parol evidence rule and the Statute of Frauds.
[V.] The trial court erred in permitting evidence of, entering judgment based upon, and awarding damages for, a claim of frustration of purpose.
[VI.] The trial court erred in permitting the jury to see a photograph and hear evidence related to Eric Schottenstein's personal residence; and other debt-related lawswuits against Appellants.
{¶ 15} The second assigned error essentially argues that the verdict was against the manifest weight of the evidence. This assignment of error requires an in-depth review of the facts and evidence adduced at trial. We will therefore address the second assigned error first, followed by the other alleged errors as is relevant or applicable.
{¶ 16} The jury having found that Schottenstein was not credible when he totally denied personally guaranteeing a payment of $96,000, Schottenstein now argues in the second assigned error that his oral promise to personally pay Floor Source $96,000 for debts incurred by Joshua Homes is unenforceable because of the statute of frauds. Under R.C. 1335.05, a person's promise to pay the debt of another must be in writing to be enforceable. R.C. 1335.05 reads:
"No action shall be brought whereby to charge the defendant, upon a special promise, to answer for the debt * * * of another person * * * unless the agreement upon which such action is brought, or some memorandum or note thereof, is in writing and signed by the party to be charged." (Emphasis added.)
No action shall be brought whereby to charge the defendant, upon a special promise, to answer for the debt, default, or miscarriage of another person; nor to charge an executor or administrator upon a special promise to answer damages out of his own estate; nor to charge a person upon an agreement made upon consideration of marriage, or upon a contract or sale of lands, tenements, or hereditaments, or interest in or concerning them, or upon an agreement that is not to be performed within one year from the making thereof; unless the agreement upon which such action is brought, or some memorandum or note thereof, is in writing and signed by the party to be charged therewith or some other person thereunto by him or her lawfully authorized.
No action shall be brought to charge a person licensed by Chapter 4731. of the Revised Code to practice medicine or surgery, osteopathic medicine or surgery, or podiatric medicine and surgery in this state, upon any promise or agreement relating to a medical prognosis unless the promise or agreement is in writing and signed by the party to be charged therewith.
{¶ 17} The issue to be resolved with respect to this assignment of error is whether some reason exists under law or equity to fail to enforce R.C. 1335.05.
{¶ 18} The first part of that issue is whether Schottenstein was in fact agreeing to pay the debt of another person. Joshua Homes was, in actuality, the name under which Joshua Investment Company did business. Eric Schottenstein was the sole shareholder of Joshua Investment Company. As president of the company, he was in complete control. The company was, for purposes' of R.C. 1335.05, however, another person. Floor Source and Goldberg could not enforce the $96,000 sum Goldberg alleged that Schottenstein had promised to pay from Schottenstein's own funds unless Goldberg and Floor Source had a document that was actually signed by Schottenstein in which the promise to pay was embedded. No such document was presented in evidence at trial.
{¶ 19} Counsel for Floor Source produced several e-mails from Goldberg to Schottenstein that referred to the $96,000 promise. The record of payments from Goldberg and Floor Source show a crediting of payments due Schottenstein toward the $96,000 sum at some point. However, Schottenstein never acknowledged an obligation to pay in writing. Instead, he denied under oath at trial that he had ever made such a promise. On its face, R.C. 1335.05 bars collection of the $96,000.
{¶ 20} Ohio case law has recognized situations in which R.C. 1335.05 will not be enforced. In Wilson Floors Co. v. Sciota Park, Ltd. (1978), 54 Ohio St.2d 451, 8 0.0.3d 444, 377 N.E.2d 514, the Supreme Court of Ohio held in the syllabus, "When the leading object of the promisor is not to answer for another's debt but to subserve some pecuniary or business purpose of his own involving a benefit to himself, his promise is not within the statute of frauds, although the original debtor may remain liable." See also Crawford v. Edison (1887), 45 Ohio St. 239, 13 N.E. 80, syllabus; see also Am. Wholesale Corp. v. Mauldin (1924), 128 S.C. 241, 122 S.E. 576, 577.
{¶ 21} Schottenstein's promise to personally pay a portion of his company's debt was clearly in his own best interest, since he wanted Floor Source to continue providing Joshua Homes with labor and materials, from which Schottenstein and his company were deriving revenue. Applying Wilson Floors, 54 Ohio St.2d 451, 8 0.0.3d 444, 377 N.E.2d 514, as we must, we conclude that the promise to pay is not within R.C. 1335.05, Ohio's statute of frauds.
{¶ 22} Based on Wilson Floors, the trial court did not err in entering judgment against Eric Schottenstein in his individual capacity. We therefore overrule the second assignment of error and the portion of the fourth assignment of error that refers to the statute of frauds.
{¶ 23} The fourth assignment of error also alleges a violation of the parol evidence rule with respect to the evidence regarding Schottenstein's promise to pay $96,000 of debt run up by Joshua Homes. The reduction agreement was executed in conjunction with the reduction of approximately $120,000 of the debt owed by Joshua Homes to Floor Source. The agreement is, in actuality, a letter dated May 12, 2006, from "Joshua Homes" by "Eric Schottenstein, President" to Jason Goldberg, America's Floor Source. The letter promises a capital infusion of $2 million to Joshua Homes from "Capital Sources" and the infusion of an additional $900,000 to be realized from the sale of model homes owned by Joshua Homes. In actuality, only $1 of the $2 million from Capital Sources was provided, and no funds from the sale of model homes were provided to pump up the capital position of Joshua Homes. Schottenstein promised to personally guarantee the 60 percent balance of the debt owed to Floor Source from Joshua Homes as set forth in the so-called "reduction agreement." The document does not refer to any other personal debt from Schottenstein to Goldberg or Floor Source.
{¶ 24} Because Schottenstein did not fulfill the condition upon which the agreement was based, namely the infusion of $2.9 million into Joshua Homes, arguably the agreement was and is not enforceable. Further, the agreement does not directly address any additional promise of payment from Schottenstein personally. Further, the document lacks the usual contract language that expressly states that the agreement is the complete contract involving Joshua Homes, Floor Source, Schottenstein personally, and Goldberg personally.
{¶ 25} Under the circumstances, we cannot find that the trial court erred in allowing in the oral/"parol" evidence about the promise of Schottenstein to pay an additional $96,000 of his own funds in order to get Goldberg to agree to the approximately $120,000 reduction in the debt of the entity called "Joshua Homes."
{¶ 26} The balance of the fourth assignment of error is overruled.
{¶ 27} Appellant's sixth assignment of error attacks the trial court's decision to admit a photograph of Schottenstein's residence over objection. In fact, the trial court refused to admit the photograph when Floor Source first proffered it. However, once Schottenstein testified to his alleged downtrodden personal finances, the court found that the evidence was relevant:
Well, I don't know, I was sitting here thinking if he's talking, to start independently sitting here thinking is started to talk about his personal accounts and personal finances in saying I'm just a poor guy trying to struggle along when in fact, they evidence he's living in a monstrous house, or I guess
* * *
* * *
* * * a very large, large, large home. I'm going to let them bring that up over your objection.
It is well established that the decision to admit or exclude evidence is within the sound discretion of the trial court and that an appellate court will not disturb that decision absent an abuse of discretion. See, e.g., State v. Sage (1987), 31 Ohio St.3d 173, 31 OBR 375, 510 N.E.2d 343, paragraph two of the syllabus; see also State v. Swann, 119 Ohio St.3d 552, 2008-Ohio-4837, 895 N.E.2d 821, ¶ 33, citing State v. Sumlin (1994), 69 Ohio St.3d 105, 108, 630 N.E.2d 681, on remand, State v. Swann, 10th Dist. No. 06AP-870, 2008-Ohio-6957, 2008 WL 5423572, ¶ 2 ("[W]e hold that the trial court abused its discretion in concluding that the evidence proffered * * * was insufficient to confirm the trustworthiness of the third-party's confession"). This is because the trial court is in a much better position than we are to evaluate the authenticity of evidence and assess the credibility and veracity of witnesses. See, e.g., State v. Hancock, 108 Ohio St.3d 57, 2006-Ohio-160, 840 N.E.2d 1032, ¶ 129; State v. Chandler, 10th Dist. No. 09AP-394, 2009-Ohio-5858, 2009 WL 3681649, ¶ 22 (the trial court is in a better position to weigh the credibility of witnesses). The trial court is thus vested with broad discretion in evidentiary matters, and the court of appeals will not disturb the trial court's ruling absent an abuse of discretion. See, e.g., Sage; State v. Hairston, 10th Dist. No. 08AP-735, 2009-Ohio-2346, 2009 WL 1396434, ¶ 27. An abuse of discretion is more than an error of law or in judgment; rather, it implies that the trial court's attitude was arbitrary, unreasonable, or unconscionable. Blakemore v. Blakemore (1983), 5 Ohio St.3d 217, 219, 5 OBR 481, 450 N.E.2d 1140, citing State v. Adams (1980), 62 Ohio St.2d 151, 157, 16 0.0.3d 169, 404 N.E.2d 144; Steiner v. Custer (1940), 137 Ohio St. 448, 19 O.O. 148, 31 N.E.2d 855; Conner v. Conner (1959), 170 Ohio St. 85, 9 0.0.2d 480, 162 N.E.2d 852; Chester Twp. v. Geauga Cty. Budget Comm. (1976), 48 Ohio St.2d 372, 2 0.0.3d 484, 358 N.E.2d 610. In this circumstance, the trial court stated a valid and legitimate reason for admitting the photograph of Schottenstein's home over objection. Even if the evidence would be irrelevant under ordinary circumstances, the photograph became relevant once Schottenstein put his own personal wealth — or purported lack thereof — at issue.
{¶ 28} Furthermore, other than the fact that the verdict was not favorable towards him, Schottenstein has not demonstrated that he was prejudiced by the alleged error. He testified that he received the benefit of $1 million from his parents' marital trust, which was to be set off against his future inheritance. Further, he was a trustee of the trust. The jury could infer from Schottenstein's testimony that he was a wealthy man from a wealthy family. The fact that he lived in a large house was not prejudicial. Further, Schottenstein testified that a $2.5 million mortgage was due with respect to the house. A picture of the house did not prejudice him under the circumstances.
{¶ 29} Accordingly, we overrule the sixth assignment of error.
{¶ 30} In the fifth assignment of error, appellant argues that Ohio law does not recognize the doctrine of frustration of purpose. We disagree. To fully address this assignment of error, we must again address the facts underlying this so-called consulting agreement between Eric Schottenstein and Floor Source.
{¶ 31} When Goldberg wished to start his own business, he needed access to capital. His personal assets were not sufficient to justify the credit line of $200,000 needed to start the business. Schottenstein agreed to co-sign for the $200,000 to assist Goldberg, who at that time was a close personal friend.
{¶ 32} A year later, the credit line needed to be renewed, and Schottenstein again co-signed.
{¶ 33} Shortly thereafter, Goldberg felt that he needed to expand the line of credit to $300,000. He approached Schottenstein about helping to acquire the additional credit. Schottenstein agreed to help, but never got around to signing the documents to increase the credit line. Later, the bank decided that Goldberg and his company were sufficiently credit-worthy that Schottenstein could be released from any obligation on the $200,000 note related to the $200,000 line of credit. The bank also increased the line of credit without Schottenstein's signature.
{¶ 34} In response to Schottenstein's expression of willingness to risk $300,000 for Goldberg's well-being, Goldberg sought to express his gratitude via a consulting agreement, under the terms of which Schottenstein and his wife would receive payments for the rest of their lives in return for Schottenstein's serving as a business advisor to Goldberg and Floor Source. At the time, Schottenstein's name was highly regarded in the community, and Schottenstein's reputation for having built up Joshua Homes was an asset.
{¶ 35} This all changed when Joshua Homes ran into serious financial difficulty and stopped paying many of its bills. Despite this close relationship, Schottenstein allowed a debt of almost $300,000 to accumulate to Floor Source. Many other companies that provided materials to Joshua Homes went unpaid, and Schottenstein's reputation in the community plummeted. His ability to give credible advice about how to grow or run a business became highly questionable. In the context of the present case, the value of his consulting services radically reduced or disappeared altogether.
{¶ 36} As a part of this litigation, Floor Source sought to be relieved of the monthly payments to Schottenstein and his wife under the consulting contract, alleging that the purposes of the contract have been frustrated.
{¶ 37} Frustration of purpose occurs when one of the two parties to a contract creates a situation where the basis of the parties' contract essentially becomes moot. The doctrine is defined in the Restatement of the Law 2d, Contracts (1981) 334, Section 265, as follows:
Where, after a contract is made, a party's principal purpose is substantially frustrated without his fault by the occurrence of an event the non-occurrence of which was a basic assumption on which the contract was made, his remaining duties to render performance are discharged, unless the language or the circumstances indicate the contrary.
{¶ 38} Appellant argues that frustration of purpose is not widely accepted in Ohio. However, frustration of purpose could be described as a form of breach of contract. If a party to a contract creates a situation whereby it cannot fulfill its obligations under the contract, the party is in breach of the contract.
{¶ 39} Schottenstein exercised complete control over Joshua Homes. He exercised control over which companies that helped Joshua Homes construct residences would be paid and how much. Part of what Schottenstein did was decide not to pay Floor Source what was due. That decision was clearly not in the best interests of Floor Source, for whom Schottenstein was a paid business consultant.
{¶ 40} Schottenstein asked Floor Source to walk away from 40 percent of the money it was owed and then offered a smaller debt reduction to some of the other contractors. Further, the jury found that Schottenstein did in fact promise to pay $96,000 personally in order to convince Goldberg and Floor Source to accept the 40 percent reduction in accounts due. Schottenstein's subsequent and continued denial of that promise suggests that he was less than candid in his dealings with Goldberg and Floor Source in order to get a signature on the reduction agreement, conduct that breached the contract to give professional business advice to Goldberg and Floor Source.
{¶ 41} The evidence before the jury demonstrated that Schottenstein frustrated the purpose of the contract as that doctrine is set forth in the Restatement of the Law 2d, Contracts, and in persuasive cases from other states and districts.
{¶ 42} The evidence also demonstrated that Schottenstein totally breached the contract for his personal services. Whether couched in terms of frustration of purposes or in terms of breach of contract, the evidence of Schottenstein's conduct was appropriately before the jury, and damages based upon that conduct were appropriately awarded.
{¶ 43} The fifth assignment of error is overruled.
{¶ 44} In the third assignment of error, appellant argues that the trial court improperly allowed the jury to determine the terms of the contract. The record does not suggest that the trial court allowed the jury to interpret the contract; what the record does demonstrate is that the trial court charged the jury with the determination of whether a contract existed. It is well established that the existence of a contract — i.e., an offer and acceptance — is an issue for the trier of fact. See, e.g., Oglebay Norton Co. v. Armco, Inc. (1990), 52 Ohio St.3d 232, 235, 556 N.E.2d 515 (whether parties intended to be bound by a contract is a question of fact for the jury).
{¶ 45} We do not find any error in this regard. Furthermore, it is not apparent from the record that appellant preserved this issue for appeal. Accordingly, we overrule the third assignment of error.
{¶ 46} Lastly, we address appellant's first assigned error, in which he argues that the trial court erred by overruling the motion to modify the case-management scheduling order. We review alleged errors in discovery decisions also for abuse of discretion. See, e.g., Nakoff v. Fairview Gen. Hosp. (1996), 75 Ohio St.3d 254, 256, 662 N.E.2d 1 ("The discovery rules give the trial court great latitude * * *. A reviewing court's responsibility is merely to review these rulings for an abuse of discretion").
{¶ 47} To constitute an abuse of discretion with regard to discovery rulings, the trial court's action(s) "must be so palpably and grossly violative of fact or logic that it evidences not the exercise of will but the perversity of will, not the exercise of judgment but the defiance of judgment, not the exercise of reason but instead passion or bias." Id.
{¶ 48} Appellants raised this issue with the trial court prior to trial, at which time the court "found no reason to alter the earlier ruling [denying appellants' motion to modify]," and again raised the issue in a post-trial judgment-notwithstanding-the-verdict motion, which the trial court denied.
{¶ 49} Therein, the trial court noted that in their memorandum in support of the motion to modify, "[I]t appears that [the] records defendants sought from plaintiff in discovery were actually in the hands of the defendants prior to the filing of this lawsuit." Id. at 4.
{¶ 50} As the trial court also noted, the primary purpose of procedural rules (including those governing discovery) is "to effect just results." See, e.g., Jones v. Murphy (1984), 12 Ohio St.3d 84, 87, 12 OBR 73, 465 N.E.2d 444; Peterson v. Teodosio (1973), 34 Ohio St.2d 161, 174-175, 63 0.0.2d 262, 297 N.E.2d 113; see also Curtis v. Cent. Ohio Neurological Surgeons, Inc., 10th Dist. No. 09AP-58, 2009-Ohio-6770, 2009 WL 4936329, ¶ 14-15. Furthermore, the trial court pointed out that "[o]ther than a general claim that they were denied the right to prepare for trial, the defendants have not identified discoverable material that was not produced, thereby denying them a fair trial."
{¶ 51} In light of all these factors, there is nothing in the record to suggest that the trial court acted unreasonably, arbitrarily, or unconscionably with regard to its denial of appellants' motion to modify the case-management order. Accordingly, we overrule the first assignment of error.
{¶ 52} Having overruled all six assignments of error, we affirm the judgment of the Franklin County Court of Common Pleas.
Judgment affirmed.
BRYANT and BROWN, JJ., concur.

Kahoon Projects creates a space for artistic exploration of the concept of social class, and consider the ways that a person's background and social experiences influences their artwork.
Named after the painter Robert Colquhoun, the Projects are based around collaborative, interdisciplinary artistic residencies offered to contemporary artists and writers from working-class background.
Shonagh Short
Shonagh Short is a socially engaged artist from Lancashire whose work aims to challenge the stigma associated with social housing. Using an ethnographic approach she collaborates with working-class communities to develop participatory projects, performances and interventions which explore ideas of class, gender and inequality.
María de la O
María de la O Garrido was born and raised in Andalucía (Spain) and moved to England in 2011, where she completed her MA Photography at Central Saint Martins in 2016 being the recipient of the Jane Rapley Scholarship. She lives and works in London, where currently combines her practice with a number of different jobs in order to survive the chaotic capitalism which involves her and you.
Morgan Tipping
Employing humour, improvisation and collaboration, my work is informed by diverse social structures and institutional frameworks and I am directly influenced by the people I work with. Since graduating from CSM, Byam Shaw in 2006, my work has taken me to care homes, refugee camps, Slovenian Zavod's, schools in India and Ghana and UK colleges and universities.
Mitchell Vowles
Mitchell Vowles' work is constructed intuitively around pre-existing objects and their subjective meaning. His work plays with self-referentiality and ideas of inner psychology, while the personal narrative of the Artist is explored fundamentally in attempts to broaden artistic comment. Observation of consumerism, subculture and class are examined as a way to understand how we are products of our unique localities.

The matter began when French investigative website, Mediapart, revealed racial profiling by talent scouts since 2013, where potential youth signings were identified by their ethnicity. The Qatari-owned club also face an upcoming hearing from the Paris prosecutors on the same matter. The football league said the use of these forms had no part in a general racial profiling culture. "From what we can see PSG did not use the information on ethnicity for discriminatory ends. There is no case of discrimination that can be proved. "It is more a case of individual clumsiness and collective negligence," LFP disciplinary commissioner Sebastien Deneux said at a press conference. The youth candidates were categorised as French, North African, West Indian or African. Such profiling is illegal in France. One of PSG's youth team directors Bertrand Reuzeau, who was in charge from 2013-2015, was given a suspended fine of 10,000 euros for his role in the matter. The club itself launched an internal investigation in October "to understand how such practices could exist and decide what measures to take".

Onesiphorus and Porphyrius of Ephesus
During the persecution of Diocletian and Maximian, about the year 290, Saints Onesiphorus and Porphyrius were betrayed as Christians to the persecutors. After many torments through which they stood fast in confessing their faith, they were bound by the feet to wild horses and dragged to death.
Kontakion of Martyrs Onesiphorus & Porphyrius
Second Tone
The martyric pair contested with great steadfastness and dashed to the earth the boasting of the enemy and were made to shine with the grace of the uncreated Trinity, and now with the angelic Hosts the glorious Martyrs pray to God for us.
