    Cannabis consumption on track to overtake alcohol

    in Off the Wall

    Posted · Edited by geggytah

    I know the thread’s old, but this shift from alcohol to cannabis is still unfolding in interesting ways, especially outside the US. In the UK, they’re actually prescribing cannabis anxiety treatment through licensed medical clinics now. It’s not recreational, it’s a legit option people are turning to instead of traditional meds or alcohol to manage stress and anxiety. Thought it was relevant to bring up here, since the whole “what people are choosing instead of booze” conversation is still evolving.

    Parking Lot 1 vs Lot 7

    Lot 1 is usually closer to the main entrances, so you get quicker access to the stadium, but it might be a little more crowded. Lot 7 could be a bit further out, but it might be less hectic and easier to get in and out of.

    ABC News Whistleblower affidavit: “Harris had debate rigged”

    I came back here to see if there's been more discussion on this. If the ABC whistleblower's claims are true, it's a major blow to trust in the electoral process. Plus, anyone who brings this to light risks a lot – but as described in this article about CFTC rewards, there are law firms that offer both legal protection and the possibility of rewards for those exposing such practices.

    I'm pretty confident Syracuse gets every Bills game. (Past Syracuse it's iffy.) In the rare event you don't get it one week, you can always hit a sports bar. It would still be cheaper than ST.

     

    Actually you're good as far east as Utica. East of Utica is the iffy territory.

    Option 1 is the first choice unless there is something wrong with the patellar tendon. Not sure what is #2.

     

    Yes, I agree, That is the decision I made as well. I go under the knife on Monday. Option 2 is actually done about just as much as option 1 at this point, simply based on doctors' preference, and with no data being able to differentiate between success levels of option 1 or 2.

    The ACL doesn't need to rebuild. The graft tunnel needs to heal.

     

    Depends on the type of surgery that was elected by Chandler/his doctors. Option 1 is to use part of the Patella tendon with attached bone to replace the ACL. Option 2 is use use multiple threads of the hamstring to replace the ACL. Option 3 is the cadaver. From the research that I've read (I recently tore my ACL), the cadaver option is NOT recommended for athletes because the strength of the cadaver's ACL is unknown, plus your body could reject the foreign object. There doesn't seem to be conclusive evidence which of the options is better at this point, although you do tend to heal fast with option 1 because the only healing that needs to occur is bone to bone since the patella tendon was never detached, plus the hamstring doesn't need to have it's strength rebuilt.
