No one has died from an overdose

Saw parts of the CNN produced documentary 'Weed," part 1 on TV. It discussed the pros and cons, the fears and hopes without apparent prejudices.  

Seems pot can cause irreversible brain damage to the young and should require a legal consumption age similarly to alcohol laws, age 21.

Most interesting to me were the health benefits claims. It's not the THC affecting startling results. There are 483 known chemical compounds in cannabis with benefits discovered in the treatment of  acne, ADD, anxiety, arthritis, cancer, chronic pain, depression, diabetes, Dravet syndrome, epilepsy, glaucoma, Huntington’s Disease, inflammation, mood disorders, multiple sclerosis, neuropathic pain, Parkinson’s, schizophrenia, and neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s.CBD has also been shown to stop the spread of cancer cells.

The regular user is better able to control his behavior than the occasional user.


 
Cannabis can be grown without traces of thc, just as poppies can be grown without their chemical compounds

NE Regional Football
Media still a step behind schedule

Until recently SMMSPORT did not list NE league. Spotted a listing for a first time this morning.  Only three games in the league are listed. Sakon game not listed. Let's hope they're up to date by game time.  The SMMSPORT livescore page does what the title implies. Lists scores as they happen.

With warming temperatures, I may take a little trip and check out some practice.

Sunday, Sakon FC 'Open House'

In the past Sakon FC had a pre season gathering to introduce the team lineup.  Was wondering if there was to be one this year and asked: "any team introductions before Sunday?"   
The answer I received "Sunday, February 11, open house to welcome the visit of the United Khon Kaen team."  
I understand "open house" to mean, no admission charge. The Thai definition may not be the same as mine?

Grass is not finished Yet

That's the reason why the 2018 season opener Sakon FC vs Khon Kaen United is not being played at Khon Kaen.

The game will be played at the Sakon Nakhon Provincial stadium on airport road on February 11, 4 pm.
The new  Khon Kaen United players were introduced to the public on January 29.

Venue of Sakon FC season opener changed

The game scheduled to be played on 11 February in Khon Kaen has been changed.  The game will be played in Sakon Nakhon according to a letter published 2 February.

Khon Kaen United had won the league's top position in 2015, but was banned in the 2016 and 2017 seasons.  The team was added to the league just a week ago.

Fishing hole lost



Near my neighborhood they are filling in a four foot deep water hole, apparently to build a residence.  
Took the pictures with my recently purchased EOS 750D with WI-FI / NFC capability.
Will have to familiarize myself with the wi-fi mode and how to ....  

Thinking about football. The schedule was supplied in PDF format, making translation a bit more difficult. 

Will try complete and proofread it with assistance  by wednesday

No action there.
Looks like a resort going up next door to the Sakon FC training center
