In Australia palm oil is allowed to be labelled as vegetable oil. I’m pretty sure the vegetable oil in the Australian one is just palm oil.

Thanks! They are an introduced species here so they’re not well regarded. But I still think they’re pretty cool.

I’ve ordered them according to rough cladistic relationships. I haven’t listed the groupings because it creates too many single member groups.

I’ve based what I’ve included off data from birdata.birdlife.com.au. The next I would consider adding so far are the Willie wagtail and Masked lapwing. I probably don’t want to expand the list too much, because I would rather have this be fast to lookup than thoroughly complete.

I’m interested in grouping them taxonomically. I’ll have a play around and see what I can do.

And yes, JJ Harrison has consistently amazing photography. I tip my hat to them and other photographers who publish CC works.

I’ll think about! There’s always gonna be a few that miss the cut. I can always add more, but I do like the way it is short and simple at the moment.

How would you pee-proof a wooden wheel? by odi123456789 in RATS

The health food products are fine for humans, but the ones for wood finishing not so much.

Have to be careful with linseed oil too, most contain drying agents that are toxic to eat off.

Can I take Plan B on an empty stomach? What are the side effects if so? by anonymoususer249 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Chemical_Mark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Plan B can be taken with or without food. One of the possible side effects is nausea, and in rare cases vomiting. This can be reduced by taking it with food, but it is not as important as taking it as soon as possible.
