When it comes to looking for a job, age is just a number...
Cheltenham and across Gloucestershire
As a career coach one of the biggest challenges I face in coaching my more mature clients is not to do with helping them to explain and demonstrate the skills, competencies and experience that I know employers need them to have but instead overcoming the imagined barriers around age that they have already burdened themselves with.
I talk a lot about personal brand in my work and although it might sound a bit of a strange concept to some of you, it is really just about understanding what makes you unique and special in the world and as a result how the world experiences you day to day. I focus on this concept with clients who may sadly have a perspective on the job market that they are 'too old' 'out of touch' or 'not what employers are looking for' because when the preconceptions about age are removed it is really just about whether you can do the job that you are applying for.
The Equality Act (2010) makes it unlawful to discriminate against employees, job seekers and trainees because of their age. So let's assume from the start that you have the law behind you and that IF you measure up against the other candidates in terms of the key skills, competencies and experience* that you must be considered alongside all of the other candidates on merit. If you believe during any recruitment process that you have experienced discriminatory treatment then get legal advice and take steps; it is illegal and we all owe it to each other to make sure fairness is applied in all recruitment processes. In reality there is no point blaming discrimination for not getting the job if you are not prepared to highlight it...
I wanted to be clear on that point because I think that sadly too many mature candidates persuade themselves that they will not get 'the job' because of their age. Not true! But if you act as if you expect that to happen then you will not be at your best and your assumption might end up a self-fulfilling prophecy. Blaming the employer for being biased against more mature candidates can be an easy way out when the harder (and more beneficial) thing to do is to ask yourself do you really have the skills, competencies and experience that the employer needs to see? And if not do you need to retrain, re-educate or refocus on more realistic career options?
The first step in any 'job hunt' is to get your CV reviewed, updated and shaped towards the type of role you are looking for. A few tips to avoid any 'age' related assumptions being made by recruitment agencies, employers or potential interviewers are; don't state your date of birth (you don't need to), provide information about your last 10 years of work experience only in your career history section you don't need to add it all. Maybe adding 'Previous Experience' and summarising jobs before then might be an idea, use a font that is not Times New Roman and adopt a CV layout which is modern, relevant and informative.
Your CV is essentially a marketing flier to attract interest in you as a candidate; it should be as informative, interesting and 'you' as possible, so use language that reflects your personality and use the first person in your Personal Statement not the third person which could read like something Dickens might have written!
Applications using a CV written five years ago will not get you anywhere, spend time on making your CV something you are proud of. Think about the vocabulary, terminology and structure you use; if your CV reads like a CV from the 1990's you'll be treated like a candidate from the 1990's - it's nothing to do with discrimination just relevance to the role and you making the effort to try to speak the same language as the employer / recruiter.
Go and meet any recruitment agency that you want to help you to find work. Get them to understand what makes you who you are, your inter-personal skills and enthusiasm. They will be able to represent you far more effectively if they understand what makes you tick.
My main advice is for you to forget the age thing; if you do then everyone else is more likely to. Be positive about your appeal as a candidate if you truly know that you have the skills, competencies and experience that the market wants. If you don't have them then get out there and acquire them and then put them to work.
Much has been written about the ideal age range within a team, the fact that more mature employees take less sick leave and that 'younger' employees are more likely to move jobs but I would ask you to just focus on being the best version of you that you can be both on paper and in person and to invest the energy, commitment and positivity that every other candidate will be investing and you will get your rewards.
Age is just a number; skills, competencies and experience are actually what decides if you get the job or not.

OM Russia began working in the Caucasus Mountains, aiming to plant churches among the least-reached peoples in that region. This is one of the most ethnically and linguistically diverse regions in the world with 50 ethnic groups speaking totally unrelated languages. Because of this diversity and because of the prominence of Islam, it is also one of the least-reached regions in the world. Come and join OM Russia to serve with a local church plant.
More church planters are needed to be part of church-planting teams, working together with other missionaries and local believers to build and strengthen the Church. OM has already developed a strong name in the region among various churches and evangelical movements. As we run training and support local evangelistic projects, we network with others in the area seeking to bring the name of Jesus to those who haven't heard about him. Being a culturally diverse area, the Caucasus require church planters who are willing to adapt and be contextually sensitive, while also focusing on discipleship movements. Without contextual, Jesus-honoring multiplication, we won't see this region reached in our lifetimes.
You will need:
- A pioneering spirit.
- Understanding/experience of church planting.
- Willingness to learn, not only a language (humility, flexibility).
- A love for people and sharing the Gospel with them.
- Positive attitude to making new contacts with people.
- Patience and endurance when results might not always directly be visible.
- Pro-activeness: not afraid to start new activities and try-out different ways to reach and disciple people.
- Ability to work in a team.
- Experience in evangelism and/or discipleship.
- Special skills welcomed.
As soon as possible
As long as possible
Through people like Arayk, locals have started to listen to God's word and are responding to it in a small town.
Children's club at the church in Tkvarcheli, which is held by MDT students, impacts lives of local children and gives them hope.
El campamento de niños de grupos no alcanzados de Rusia este verano estuvo enfocado en compartir la verdad con personas cuyas creencias espirituales varían desde el budismo hasta el chamanismo, y todo lo que está entremedio. En conexión con una iglesia local, el equipo de OM vio milagros de Dios en acción, y también la gran necesidad de su amor y su luz.
Despite not openly being allowed to speak about Jesus, an outreach team finds ways to be instruments in God's hands.
OM hat in Zusammenarbeit mit einer Ortsgemeinde Gläubige geschickt, um in einem Dorf zu dienen, in dem unerreichte Volksgruppen leben. Nach kurzer Zeit übergaben einige Einheimische ihr Leben Jesus. Jetzt wurde eine dynamische Gemeinde dort gegründet.

Louis Walsh has reignited his feud with Cheryl by suggesting she audition for the new celebrity version of The X Factor.
The 67-year-old's feud with the singer dates back years, and now he's taken another pop at the former Girls Aloud star.
During an interview with The Sun, Louis was asked if he was surprised Cheryl wasn't invited to join the judging panel for The X Factor: Celebrity – which he's on alongside Simon Cowell and Nicole Scherzinger.
Louis cheekily replied: "You mean as a contestant? She would be good. She could even win it."
But when he was asked if Cheryl would have to mime to win it, Louis said, "Cheryl doesn't mime…," before adding, "It is called lip-syncing."
Fans thought Louis and Cheryl had finally settled their differences, as he said they were getting on back in January 2018.
At the time, he said: "Look, we would agree to disagree on certain things but that's what makes it good. We all get on."

Norma; Blessed of God
Mom & Me
Everyone, almost without exception, loves their mom. Moms are our role-models, our confidants, our heroes. They give us our life, food and hugs. Moms are great. My mom, Norma Nodar, is the greatest.
If you know her, or have ever been remotely in contact with her, by that I mean, sell insurance to her, paint her house or help her at the store, you have probably gotten a card from her. This in and of itself is a blessing to multitudes. My siblings and I have 15 children between us, plus now, their spouses. Every one of us receive not only birthday cards but Thanksgiving, Easter and other various holidays. Our plethora of grandchildren, at least 40 (which includes the great-grands and steps,) have received their birthday cards with a crisp five-dollar bill until their 18th birthday! After that, they continue to get a card (usually with a decorated envelope) until, well, I guess forever.
But wait, I mentioned if you were remote contact, which means not only venders and businesses, but friend's birthdays, illnesses, congratulations, shut-in encouragement and sympathy cards, sent, by the way, every single day.
Keeping Our Children Happy & Safe
All you want as a mom (or dad) is for your children to be happy and safe. And for me, for them to love Jesus. Is your heart broken, is your child away from you in spirit? Are they sick or just down on their luck? What can we do, how can we help? Come on now, why is this happening?
Well, first, let me say, we are in a crazy, difficult world with many dangers and snares. So, this is not your fault. That said, could we have done things differently, sure, but ultimately, our child's life decisions are surely just theirs when they reach a certain age. It is our job as parents to mold, train and discipline them as they grow, but an adult child is totally responsible for their decisions from about 18 on, with a few exceptions, which I will elaborate on later.
Charts Work! A Young Mom's Tip!
Momma, are you struggling to get your child's cooperation? Struggling to get things done in a timely manner? What about just having a difficult time teaching rules and responsibility to your child? I was there, in your shoes just a few short months ago. Luckily, I discovered an awesome system to teach my LO all of the above struggles.
I have used this system since January, and it has help tremendously. It's the infamous sticker chart for your child (of any age). I have two charts (morning and evening) filled with a few chores, i.e. making the bed, brushing teeth, eating breakfast, picking up toys, putting dishes in the sink, helping with dinner, taking a bath, free time, and most importantly, having a Bible verse of the day.

Dad's Vital Role in Building Character Into His Sons By Dr. James Dobson
If character training is a primary goal of parenting, and I believe it is, then the best way to instill it is through the demeanor and behavior of a father. Identification with him is a far more efficient teacher than lecturing, scolding, punishing, bribing, and cajoling. Boys watch their dads intently, noting every minor detail of behavior and values. Your sons will imitate much of what you do. If you blow up regularly and insult your wife, your boys will treat their mother and other females disrespectfully. If you drink to excess, your kids will be at risk for chemical substance abuse. If you curse or smoke or fight with your coworkers, your boys will probably follow suit. If you are selfish or mean or angry, you'll see those characteristics displayed in the next generation.
Fortunately, the converse is also true. If you are honest, trustworthy, caring, loving, self-disciplined, and God-fearing, your boys will be influenced by those traits as they age. If you are deeply committed to Jesus Christ and live by biblical principles, your children will probably follow in your footsteps. So much depends on what they observe in you, for better or worse.
Someone said, "I'd rather see a sermon than hear one." There is truth to this statement. Children may not remember what you say, but they are usually impacted for life by what you do. Consider the task of teaching your boys to be honest, for example. Yes, you should teach what the Scripture says about truthfulness, but you should also look for opportunities to live according to that standard of righteousness. I'm reminded of something that happened several years ago in the state of Georgia, when the Bulldogs of Rockdale County High School overcame a big deficit to win the state basketball championship. Coach Cleveland Stroud couldn't have been more proud of his team. But then a few days later, while watching the game films of the playoffs, he noticed that there was an ineligible player on the court for forty-five seconds during one of the games. He called the Georgia High School Association and reported the violation, costing the school the title and the trophy. When asked about it at a press conference, Coach Stroud said, "Some people have said that we should have kept quiet about it. That it was just forty-five seconds, and that the player wasn't really an impact player. But you gotta do what's honest and right. I told my team that people forget the scores of basketball games. They don't ever forget what you're made out of."
6 Qualities of an Encouraging Parent By Dr. Eric Scalise, PhD., LPC, LMFT
What is encouragement and why is it so essential for maintaining healthy marriages and families. Encouragement represents positive influence, to literally give courage to someone—not waiting until it's deserved or asked for, but taking initiative when things are difficult and uncertain. There are many synonyms one could use: to give support, confidence or hope to another; to hearten, cheer, uplift, inspire, motivate, vitalize, embolden, or rally. The impact can be far reaching and often makes a difference when relationships begin to falter. Even the neuroscience gives credence to this dynamic. Criticism and negativity release harmful stress hormones, inhibit concentration, diminish the brain's executive functioning, and tend to create knee-jerk reactions vs. calm and rational thinking.
The Bible provides a wonderful example of a life fully lived under this principle. His name was Barnabas and there are several lessons we can draw from his story. Here are six worth considering:
1. The first thing about an encourager is that he or she is practical.
Barnabas arrives on the scene in Acts 4:36-37. He was just a regular "Joe" (Joseph, a Levite), but his nature was so uplifting and encouraging, that the Apostles changed his name to fit his character—Bar (the Son of) Encouragement. He sold some land and laid the money at the Apostle's feet. Here were the leaders of the first century church who were trying to take care of widows and orphans, and what they needed at the time were financial resources—so practical in the moment.Continue reading
A Mother's Influence Can't Be Overstated By Dr. James Dobson
Many women feel that the job of "mom" is boring and monotonous–and they are right! But so is practically every other occupation.
I once stayed in a hotel next to the room of a famous cellist. I could hear him through the walls (believe me!) as he practiced hour after hour. He did not play beautiful symphonic renditions; he repeated scales over and over. As the cellist strolled onstage that evening, I'm sure many in the audience thought, "What a glamorous life!" Some glamour. He spent the entire day alone in his hotel room.
Few of us enjoy heart-thumping excitement each moment of our professional lives. How thrilling is the work of a medical pathologist who examines bacterial cultures from morning until night or a dentist who spends his days drilling and filling? The job of a homemaker can be about as boring as most others. Yet in terms of significance, no job can compete with a mother's task of shaping and molding a human being in the morning of life.
Not every woman chooses to be a mother, of course, but those who do are worthy of our admiration and respect. "Children," we are told in Scripture, "are a blessing" (Psalm 37:26, TLB). If so, then mothers are His loving gift to them.

6 Truths About the Role of Moms
Dads–Kids Will Treat Mom Based On Your Actions
The Gospel Parade goes to St. Bernard Parish!
(Copied from Joe McDonald Ministry April Newsletter)
I received a blog post on my professionalmom.com site last year, Debbie Smith of Wee Can Know ministry, a friend for many years, had read my "The Gospel Parade" book and had actually made shoebox floats of the parade in the book! I was thrilled, not only because she loved my book, but as a children's ministry to the Greater New Orleans area, she and her husband, Phil, had multiple opportunities to share the Gospel story through these floats during the year. Phil bought wagons and they placed the floats in order, pulling them along throughout the Mardi Gras season.
Fast-forward to March 2018, Debbie called me and invited Joe McDonald Ministry to walk (and pull) in the St. Bernard Parish Irish Italian Islenos Parade in Chalmette, Louisiana. Joe and I walked the 6 mile parade with Debbie and her team, pulling The Gospel Parade on 6 wagons. It was so fun as we joined the huge parade with giant floats and marching teams. We gave out 800 Gospel packets with bracelets, 200 The Gospel Parade book packets with bracelets, 900 John 3:16 doubloons, 850 additional tracts, and 400 Wordless Book tracts for a today of 3,150 witnesses! Our continued prayer is that many people at that parade will be saved from reading this literature and from seeing the floats!
My personal blessing is that Phil and Debbie ran with the inspiration from The Gospel Parade, more children are saved, and God is glorified! Joe and I left a box of 300+ mini books and Debbie has already distributed some at a Bible Club meeting! I want to add a thank you to YOU! Because of you, we have been able to print mini books in Spanish and English and have distributed them around the World!

Blaming the Bride
Last week was an interesting and exciting time for my wife and I. For more than a year we have floated here and there visiting churches or not going at all. We were aloof with the idea of settling down because we are human and struggled with knowing some of the inner workings of the people at the churches we had been to for extended periods. Some things we probably… Read More »Blaming the Bride

A more serene environment has this additional bedroom decorated in beige. The fabrics of this bed, the drapes and even the furniture, have been preferred in warm tones, so very near the color of their walls. With the beige color, we can add style and sophistication: simply locate the accessories and furniture, as we can in the bedroom, above these lines.
A classic decoration we find in this room. The beige of these walls is so neutral that it mixes with almost any element of this bedroom. Can it be dark, intermediate or light. A more modern aspect has this additional bedroom due to this beige tone chosen and the gray tones which groom the mattress.
To put beige bedding sets, is to select a decoration, in first, warm and comfy; with a traditional or traditional style. However, as we'll see below, based on how colour is along with the rest of the bedroom elements, such as furniture or fabrics and accessories, we can obtain 1 feeling or another: warmer, colder, more modern, more timeless, etc., the dark wood furniture and classic style and the excellent traditional alformbra that covers and dresses the ground, provide this bedroom a timeless, elegant and cozy feeling.

I'm a member of the "Australian Studio Painters" group at Facebook. Every few weeks they post a new reference photo so that we can a) paint it, and b) learn from how everyone else paints it. I've been meaning to join in for a while and the challenge photo this time was too inspiring to miss!
I decided to try the underpainting technique that Stephanie Hock uses (a while ago she was kind and generous enough to send me work-in-progress photos of one of her paintings to teach me how to do it). In short, you underpaint with complementary colours. I also made sure my values were fairly correct at this stage. Here's how the underpainting looked (sorry about the glare);
While this dried I had lunch but I was already very excited and couldn't wait to get back to it! So far I had only used White, Black, Cadmium Orange and Anthraquinone Blue. I thought perhaps I'd be able to stick to just those, but ended up needing to add Yellow Ochre, Hansa Yellow and Burnt Umber in order to be able to express the range of orange tones in the trees.
Below is the end result. You can see the underpainting poking through all over the place when you're close to the painting, but it vanishes once you're a few feet away.
I'm thrilled with how this turned out. It's a while since I did a painting this size (20×16″) in one day!

When you serve in the armed forces, you face challenges of the body and mind. But when your service is over, those challenges don't necessarily end.
U.S. military veterans face many unique mental and physical hardships in their daily lives. On average, veterans are more likely to experience symptoms of PTSD, anxiety, chronic pain, and substance abuse.
The increasing popularity of cannabidiol or CBD has many veterans asking, "Can CBD help me?" Let's take a look at the basics of CBD, how CBD can help veterans, and programs that give veterans access to affordable CBD.
What is CBD?
CBD is a naturally occurring compound found in the cannabis plant. Humans have been using cannabis for thousands of years. It may even be one of the oldest plants cultivated by man.
Cannabis has many unique properties that make the plant incredibly useful to humans. It grows quickly and its fibrous stalks are useful for making hemp fiber. Hemp fiber has countless industrial uses including paper, textiles, and clothing.
Humans have also used the cannabis plant as a medicinal herb throughout history. From ancient Egypt and India to 19th-century healers, cannabis was considered an effective remedy for pain and nausea and even used as an antibacterial agent.
CBD Is a Cannabinoid
But what gives cannabis its healing properties? Cannabis produces over one hundred unique compounds known as cannabinoids. The cannabinoids CBD and THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) are the most abundant cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant.
Although they're both cannabinoids, CBD and THC have very different properties. THC is mainly responsible for the psychoactive, intoxicating effects of cannabis. In contrast, CBD is non-intoxicating and can even balance out the intoxicating effects of THC.
Medical Benefits Without the High
That's why researchers and consumers have been paying so much attention to CBD in the last few years. CBD has many of the medicinal benefits of cannabis without the high. So far, the evidence points to CBD as being a potential remedy for:
But how can you separate the intoxicating effects of THC from CBD? When CBD producers use a low-THC variety of cannabis called hemp, the end result is a non-intoxicating CBD product with less than 0.3% THC.
How CBD Works
CBD offers many of the benefits of cannabis without the high, but how does it work? When you ingest CBD, it enters your bloodstream and interacts with your body's endocannabinoid system.
The endocannabinoid system is a biological system present throughout most of the human body. Scientists discovered this system while trying to better understand the physiological effects of cannabis.
The endocannabinoid system acts as a biological master regulator and works to maintain homeostasis or a sense of balance in the body. It helps to regulate our appetite, metabolism, sleep, mood, immune system, stress response, and more.
The endocannabinoid system is made up of three components. Endocannabinoids are cannabinoid compounds made naturally in our own bodies. Anandamide is one of the most well-known. Certain enzymes are responsible for creating and breaking down cannabinoids to help regulate their effect.
Lastly, cannabinoid receptors located on the surface of cells throughout the body bind to cannabinoids. This binding sends a signal that can either activate or turn down the activity of the endocannabinoid system.
Receptors CB1 and CB2 are the most cannabinoid-specific receptors that scientists have discovered. CB1 receptors are located mainly in the central nervous system which includes the brain and the spinal cord. CB2 receptors are located mainly in the peripheral nervous system (especially the immune system) which acts to relay messages from the limbs and organs to the brain.
We know that CBD interacts with our endocannabinoid system like other cannabinoids. But researchers are still trying to figure out exactly how it works. For example, researchers found that THC binds and stimulates CB1 and CB2 receptors, but CBD only binds weakly and actually blocks the actions of these receptors. There's also evidence that CBD stimulates the endocannabinoid system indirectly by increasing levels of anandamide.
How Can CBD Help Veterans?
CBD works by interacting with the body's endocannabinoid system but how can it help veterans? Research shows that CBD may be effective for treating several conditions that commonly affect veterans.
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder or PTSD is a psychiatric disorder. Some people develop PTSD after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event. Those who suffer from PTSD are unable to process and cope with the negative memories.
Symptoms include:
- Re-experiencing symptoms: flashbacks, nightmares, and intrusive memories and thoughts of the traumatic event
- Arousal and reactivity symptoms: trouble sleeping, being easily startled, angry outbursts, and feeling on edge
- Cognition and mood symptoms: negative feelings about life or yourself, feelings of guilt and blame, the inability to enjoy your favorite activities
- Avoidance symptoms: avoiding places, people, thoughts, and feelings that are related to the traumatic event
When serving in the armed forces, veterans are more likely to be exposed to life-threatening situations or other traumatic events like sexual assault and harassment. As a result, PTSD is common in veterans with estimates ranging from 10 to 30 percent. And unfortunately, there aren't any medications that specifically target PTSD and its symptoms.
But CBD represents a promising treatment for PTSD because it appears to target the root cause of the disorder.
At its core, PTSD is a memory disorder. Researchers think that PTSD is caused by impaired memory pathways in the brain. This means that people with PTSD tend to 'over-remember' their trauma.
CBD may actually help bad memories fade, making it a relevant treatment option for PTSD. One small 2019 study showed that 91% of patients decreased their PTSD symptoms with 8 weeks of CBD treatment.
Substance Abuse
Military populations in the U.S. have higher rates of substance use disorder than civilian populations. And for veterans, PTSD and substance abuse issues are strongly intertwined.
Nearly one-third of veterans seeking treatment for substance use disorder also have PTSD. That's because some people try to self-medicate away their PTSD symptoms by drinking and smoking heavily or using drugs.
Substance abuse—referred to substance use disorder (SUD) by doctors and researchers—occurs when a person uses a substance compulsively despite negative consequences like fractured relationships or poor work performance. Eventually, substance abuse can lead to addiction and chemical dependency.
Recovery can be difficult and mired by relapse. And the risk of relapse is influenced by a person's stress and anxiety levels, context-dependent cravings, and impulse control.
The endocannabinoid system affects motivation and seeking behavior. This means CBD could be able to block cravings, making it a good drug candidate for treating the root cause of substance abuse.
And emerging evidence shows that this may be the case. In the context of alcohol abuse, one comprehensive review showed that CBD may help fight relapse. In animal studies, CBD reduced alcohol-seeking behaviors, withdrawal symptoms, and anxiety. When relapses did occur, animals treated with CBD consumed less alcohol and showed less motivation to drink.
And a 2019 clinical study in humans showed that CBD significantly reduced both craving and anxiety in patients with heroin use disorder after being tempted with a drug cue. This means CBD's effects could also be relevant for opioid addiction.
Chronic Pain
Veterans are also more likely than civilians to experience chronic and severe pain. For combat veterans dealing with life-changing injuries, coping with chronic pain can be a significant challenge. However, veterans are also more likely to experience run of the mill aches such as joint pain, back pain, and migraine headaches.
Humans have been using cannabis as a pain reliever for hundreds of years. And studies show that both THC and CBD may help treat hard to manage pain.
But CBD on its own may also help ease pain. There's no shortage of anecdotal evidence for this effect and the research agrees. CBD may be an effective treatment for chronic and acute pain.
Moreover, CBD represents a lower-risk alternative to opioids which have more negative side effects and are highly addictive.
Anxiety is a common secondary symptom of PTSD. But even veterans who don't suffer from PTSD can be affected by intrusive, anxious thoughts that affect their quality of life. Moreover, anxiety is on the rise among veterans.
Again, there's plenty of anecdotal evidence from people saying that CBD helped them treat their anxiety. And the research shows that CBD may have a positive effect on anxiety. One 2015 review concluded that CBD has great potential as a treatment for anxiety disorders.
We all need sleep to be at our best. A solid 8-9 hours of sleep each night helps improve our mood, learning, and memory and wards off chronic illness like cardiovascular disease, obesity, and even cancer. Unfortunately, a good night's sleep can be hard to come by if you're suffering from PTSD, chronic pain, or anxiety.
But CBD might offer some relief. Not only can CBD potentially relieve symptoms associated with PTSD, chronic pain, and anxiety (see above), but it can also target sleep directly.
Endocannabinoid signaling helps regulate sleep. In rats, researchers showed that CBD increases total sleep time. A 2017 review concluded that CBD has the potential for treating insomnia. And a 2019 study demonstrated that CBD improved sleep quality in a group of 48 patients with sleep disorders.
CBD Safety
CBD is made from hemp, a type of cannabis strain that produces low levels of THC and high levels of CBD. Unfortunately, there's still a significant stigma attached to cannabis. As a result, many people are not convinced that CBD is really safe.
We've already covered the issue of CBD safety on CannaHealth and so far the research shows that CBD is safer than many over-the-counter medications. In one study looking at the effects of CBD, researchers found it was well tolerated with only minor negative side effects in adults.
As a testament to CBD's good safety profile, the FDA approved CBD in June 2018 as a key ingredient in the prescription medication Epidiolex for treating rare and severe forms of epilepsy. That means CBD made it through the FDA's rigorous approval process and the FDA considers CBD to be generally safe, even for those suffering from epilepsy.
The international community is also in agreement. In 2017, the World Health Organization (WHO) released a comprehensive review of CBD. In their review, the WHO concluded that "CBD is generally well tolerated with a good safety profile." They also found that CBD has a very low potential for dependence and abuse.
However, there are some side effects you should be aware of. In the FDA clinical trials for Epidiolex, the most commonly reported negative side effects include:
- Decreased appetite
- Drowsiness
- Diarrhea
It's also important to note that, while all current research points to CBD being safe, we don't know everything. For example, CBD may interact with other prescription medications. So talk to your doctor before adding CBD to your routine.
Legal Issues
Another common concern is whether or not CBD is legal. After all, CBD comes from cannabis which is illegal, right?
Not necessarily. Laws are beginning to change at both the state and the federal level. Over 30 states in the U.S. have either legalized cannabis for medicinal use or adult recreational use.
And in 2018, the U.S. passed a new Farm Bill which re-classified low-THC cannabis or hemp. Now hemp that contains less than 0.3% THC by weight is legal to grow and consume in all 50 states at the federal level. Since CBD can be manufactured from hemp, that means CBD is also legal
But states can pass their own laws if they wish to ban CBD. Make sure to double-check the laws in your state before buying CBD online.
CBD and the VA
For veterans, the United States Department of Veterans Affairs or VA provides comprehensive healthcare services to eligible U.S. military veterans. And while CBD is legal in the U.S., not all government agencies view CBD in the same light.
So what does the VA think about CBD? The VA acknowledges that CBD is legal and has some unique benefits backed by science that can benefit veterans.
However, the VA only prescribes drugs approved by the FDA. While the FDA approved CBD in June 2018, the approval only covers CBD in the form of the prescription medication Epidiolex for treating specific forms of epilepsy. That means, even though the VA views CBD favorably, you won't be able to get a CBD prescription or have your CBD covered by the VA.
CBD Discount Programs for Veterans
If you don't have a prescription for CBD, you can still buy CBD products online. CBD is only FDA-approved for certain types of epilepsy, but it's legal to sell and buy in the U.S. as a health supplement as long as it's made from low-THC hemp. And with CBD's growing popularity, there are plenty of CBD brands to choose from online.
When you buy CBD from an online retailer, you'll have to pay out of pocket. However, many CBD brands recognize the important contributions of our military service members and offer discount programs for veterans.

Closing Thoughts
Life after the military can be challenging for even the toughest veterans. But CBD offers a safe, legal health supplement that may ease the symptoms of PTSD, anxiety, chronic pain, and substance abuse.

How to minimise inheritance tax
Shane Stack of Medical Money Management advises GPs how to protect their beneficiaries from the burden of inheritance tax
Shane Stack of Medical Money Management advises GPs how to protect their beneficiaries from the burden of inheritance tax
Inheritance Tax (IHT) is a tax levied at death on estates valued in excess of £312,000 (tax year 2008/9) or £624,000 in total for married couples and civil partnerships.
Obviously a great many GPs will need to seek advice in this area, and there are several established and legitimate planning opportunities available to those with estates potentially affected by the tax.
Deeds of variation
A deed of variation is one planning option. It involves altering an individual's will within two years of their death. It still remains the most effective and instantaneous way to reduce a potential inheritance tax liability where the opportunity exists.
Provided certain formalities are observed, the gift of an inheritance made by deed of variation will be treated for inheritance tax purposes as if made by the deceased.
As no beneficiary is treated as owning the discretionary trust fund for inheritance tax purposes, the inheritance is immediately removed from the beneficiary's taxable estate.
Mind you, the introduction of a transferable nil rate band (see below) means that deeds of variation will become largely unnecessary to retrospectively utilise a deceased spouse's unused nil rate band.
Nil rate band planning
The 2008 budget introduced a transferable nil rate band for married couples and civil partners where the second death occurred on or after 9 October 2007.
The amount available for transfer is the percentage of the nil rate band unused on first death, but applied to the nil rate band threshold applicable at the date of death of the survivor.
Example – transferable nil rate band
John died on 20th February 1997 leaving a small legacy of £10,000 to each of his three children and the balance of his estate to his wife Louise. In 1996/97 the nil rate band was £200,000 and the percentage unused was therefore 85%.
Louise dies on 15th March 2008 with an estate of £500,000 – somewhat in excess of her individual nil rate band for 2007/08 of £300,000. However, by claiming John's unused nil rate band of £255,000 (i.e. nil rate band of £300,000 x 85%), Louise's executors will have no tax to pay.
The introduction of a transferable nil rate band means that the nil rate band of a married person (or person in a civil partnership) will not be wasted even if all assets are left to the survivor on first death.
Using your will to plan
Nonetheless situations will still exist where it is appropriate to implement planning in your will. These include:
• A second and subsequent marriage. A discretionary will trust will be useful in second marriage scenarios where leaving everything to a surviving spouse to the exclusion of children from a former marriage is undesirable.
• Asset protection. Use of a discretionary trust in your reduces the possibility of assets being taken into account when assessing eligibility for local authority assistance in the event of the surviving spouse requiring long term care. A discretionary trust in your will also offers some protection in the event of the bankruptcy or divorce of a beneficiary.
• Fast growing assets. These would be assets likely to grow at a faster rate than increases in the nil rate band.
Exemptions, reliefs and absolute outright gifts
Non-contentious planning makes use of available exemptions and reliefs. It is the fundamental first step for individuals who still have a liability even after use of both nil rate bands. In this regard, individuals and their advisers should consider:
• Ensuring the current £3000 annual exemption is utilised.
• Making regular exempt gifts out of surplus income to reduce the size of the estate.
• Ensuring maximum use is made of business and agricultural property relief where these are available.
• Taking advantage of the potentially exempt transfer regime to make outright gifts to individuals or to trusts where this is appropriate.
Gifts to discretionary trusts
Where an individual is happy to make an outright gift in which he or she reserves no benefit, provided that an element of flexibility and control over who gets what and when can be retained, a chargeable transfer to a discretionary trust should be considered.
If the amount gifted is below an individual's available nil rate band, there will be no inheritance tax to pay either on creation of the trust or for at least the next 10 years.
Insurance based schemes
Loan trusts and discounted gift and income plans are attractive propositions to the UK domiciled individuals who wish to reduce their taxable estate but also to retain some form of access to their investments.
Loan trusts offer the option of access to the original investment amount – either on a regular or ad-hoc basis – while removing the investment growth from the taxable estate. The amount of the original investment in the individual's estate for inheritance tax purposes will reduce as withdrawals are taken (provided these are not accumulated elsewhere in the estate).
Discounted gift and income plans enable an individual to make a reduced or discounted gift, achieving an immediate reduction in the taxable estate for inheritance tax purposes and moving capital outside the estate altogether after seven years.
At the same time and income for life (or until the trust fund is exhausted) is retained, and complete flexibility over the ultimate distribution of remaining capital is achieved.
Funding for liabilities with life insurance
Where a liability still exists after all other acceptable planning options have been exhausted, funding for the liability using whole of life policies (life assurance) written under trust should be considered.
Funding for the liability offers you a straightforward, comparatively low cost solution where gifts (premiums paid) will normally be covered by an exemption. Indeed HMRC seldom query this method as they still get their "pound of flesh"!
In my experience most of my clients use a combination of the above solutions. However whatever route you choose you should always seek independent financial and legal advice.

I would just like to point out before this post goes any further that this picture (which looks more and more gross the longer I look at it) isn't just a fat roll on my stomach poking over my jeans…
the point of this post was to show the weird "V" shaped-ness that my stomach has decided to take on, the scar skin I guess is still a bit tighter? I Don't really understand. But whenever I try to show people they dismiss it as a no big deal, but I don't feel like anyone can see it properly aside from through my, birds eye view. Hence this photo, I had to sit down to get my jeans in the background so it would show up – but there is a definite indent where the scar is…im hoping its going to go? You cant really tell when im upright or walking around, but I keep noticing it when I am sat down, and its just weird… anyone else had anything similar?!
I Was flicking through the pictures on my phone the other day, and I have a suprising number of my scar and stomach – definitely not a usual photo album! I was looking and I was proud of them, and of myself for putting them on this blog. I wear anything from a size 8 to 10 to 12 depending on the shop or clothing, I know I am not fat but I am not skinny either. I am not well toned or skinny even though I try to go to the gym. And I am guilty of skipping the gym for a takeaway curry with my friends- I am a normal person. I have my insecutirites putting pictures (like this) of my stomach up, for me it definitely isn't the kind of "body shots" you see a lot of girls posting these days, but I think its a real and honest view, if nothing else.
Anyway, scar is healing well – last bit of surgery sting / stitch that was sticking up came off yesterday, very exciting!
Hope you are all having a good week, and please keep on liking / following the blog! So close to having 50 followers, which would be totally unbelievable!
Keep smiling,

Problem : svn: warning: Working copy 'xxx' locked
Solution : Run a svn cleanup. If that fails..
1. Get a svn diff of local modifications to a patch.
svn diff > patch.diff
2. Delete folder containing locked resource path from the file system. Do not use svn delete.
rm <folder-containing-locked-resource>
3. Run a svn update
svn up
4. Apply local modifications to working copy.
patch -p0 -i patch.diff
Problem : svn: warning: 'xxx' is already a working copy for a different URL after adding a svn:external
Solution : In this case you might have done a mistake in setting the external. An external property to download an already existing folder will cause this error. If this is the case..
1. Remove the svn external
* svn propedit svn:externals
* Remove external definition in the editor and save it.
* Do a svn update
svn up
* Now commit
svn ci
2. Delete folder from svn and file system
svn delete
rm -rf <folder-having-svn-external>
3. Set new external. This time without the folder. For example.
svn propset svn:externals 'conf http://sample.org/trunk' .
This time since there is no existing 'conf ' folder it will not conflict with the external.

|London, 7 Feb 2001.
For immediate release.
In Northamptonshire, the "Marketing Team" for the speed camera project are trumpeting a 28% reduction in fatalities between 1999 and 2000. In reality, it was the 76 fatalities in 1999 that was the unusual figure. The "result" in 2000, 55 fatalities, simply reflects the average annual fatality rate in Northamptonshire over the last five years - 56 fatalities.
ABD spokesman Nigel Humphries says:
"This is typical statistical chicanery by the authorities, who are desparate to justify a hugely unpopular scheme by claiming they have saved lives. This scheme is so unpopular in Northants, where the number of speeding tickets has risen from 4000 to 100000, that they are now deliberately targeting through traffic on the M1 and A14 in order to raise their revenue from people who don't live locally and therefore cannot make trouble for the scheme."The whole idea of blanket mass speed enforcement as a means of improving road safety is flawed.
Claims that 1200 people are killed annually by speeding are nothing more than a figment of the imagination of somebody in the DETR, obtained by including things like tailgating, overtaking on blind bends and even misjudging the speed of oncoming traffic when pulling out of junctions.
Research into accident causation invariably shows that less than 10% of fatalities are caused primarily by excessive speed. Than means a maximum of 340 fatalities rather the 1200 suggested by the DETR.
Most of these happen in urban areas due to extreme speeding by a minority of reckless drivers who lose control and mount the pavement. The correct approach is to properly target these offenders rather than to try to catch as many people as possible breaking often inappropriately low limits on the open road in perfect safety.
This approach, typified by this latest ill considered mass campaign, is actually harmful to road safety because it:
1. Ignores the real causes of most accidents - hazard perception, poor road engineering, attentiveness
2. Penalises those who ARE competent in these areas, preventing them from exercising roadcraft skills and turning them into speedometer watching liabilities.
A fresh and more enlightened approach to road safety is much needed.

365 days of colour: day 65
I did it! I made a hutch for my jewelry bench! Frank helped of course, good thing since this was bigger than that small shelf I made from the scrap wood. He drilled pilot holes this time and the wood didn't split. I hammered in little rusty-looking upholstery tacks along the top to give it some personality. Still organizing and filling my jars with beads, excuse the mess, I just wanted to share and it's still several hours away from being perfect :)

Michael~John Shea is an emerging writer who, after wandering the world searching for an inspirational idea, decided to settle on Queensland's Sunshine Coast and write novels.
His first names are spelt with a tilde not a hyphen, whenever a computerised system allows that to happen. That's why he hates Facebook, even though he has a presence there.
He is looking for a publishing house that wants a four-novel deal before the close of business today. Shea couldn't decide whether to write the Great Australian Surf Novel or an Absurdist novel, so he did both — but not in the same story.
He lives with his three children from a previous marriage and encourages their reading and writing. All he wants is to be left alone to write (publishers excepted).
He doesn't do photographs.
