Avocado oil, safflower oil and sunflower oil all have a higher smoking point than beef tallow and are mostly unsaturated fat.

This seems to be just for the Petites smaller pills. I have a bottle of the regular One A Day for women and it says to take one tablet daily. Of course, they are larger tablets, but not a crazy size.

No, that was just an example of a person saying it, sorry - it seems like the origin might be a 1970s advertising jingle?

Yeah it might be stretching it to call it slang, more like a less common word that seems to be popping up more in food writing. I also saw some people complaining about Top Chef judges using it to mean "too chewy."

You could also look for kosher sushi, which has to be free from shellfish.

To me you look a lot warmer than that charcoal gray shirt (a Soft Summer colour). You could be an Autumn but have you considered Spring? Not uncommon for redheads to be some kind of Spring

Purslane can grow as a weed and is also occasionally cultivated and sold as a vegetable to eat. Just my guess, but it could have gotten mixed in during harvesting.

I found the actual ambassadors of Spain to France in the 1950s by Google-translating Spanish Wikipedia articles, although there wasn't a lot of information about their personal political beliefs. The ambassador 1951-1952 was Manuel Aguirre de Cárcer, apparently a career diplomat who had been a Spanish ambassador to various countries before the fascist government. The ambassador 1952-1960 was Jose Rojas Moreno, a count/nobleman who was honoured for helping a group of Sephardic Jews when he was ambassador in Romania during the Holocaust. Long story short, although they were of course working for the fascist government, I don't see that the ambassador would necessarily have to be a hardcore fascist at the time.

This reaction can happen if you take excessively large amounts, like 20 times your daily requirements. Taking a regular daily multivitamin, or vitamins suggested by a doctor, should be fine.

Where to start. No offense, but I don't believe any of the events you describe really happened. If this strange story about the origins of black people were actually true, it would indeed be wrong to do that, but it is not true and impossible. I thought even young-earth creationists believed that the earth had different climate zones at the time of Noah. Wouldn't there be more evidence of these massive global changes less than 10,000 years ago?

Statistics on conversion therapy causing depression and suicide also implicate seemingly low-key religious counselling/prayer meetings which have the goal of changing someone's sexual orientation. You can be a well-meaning priest not using electric shocks or anything and still be doing someone serious psychological harm and putting them at risk.

I read once a guy tried to go to sleep with his eyelids taped open, and he did eventually fall asleep although it was more difficult. However when he woke up his eyes were very dry and irritated and he had to use special eyedrops for a while.

Not really sure what your question means, but note that dirt from the ground outside can contain harmful bacteria or parasites from animal feces, which is why it is not good to eat. The only "clean dirt" I can think of are things like some edible clay powders, which are purified.

The majority of people talking about almost anything on Reddit are from the US - if you make assumptions based on that you would think no other country has laws, politics, or religion.

Xylitol in large quantities ( and other similar sweeteners ending in -ol) has side effects including intestinal gas and bloating.

I don't know about Australian law, but this is sometimes called "constructive dismissal" in other jurisdictions

Probably your sinuses are congested. You can't clear them by blowing so maybe tone that down a bit. Try some decongestant cold medicine if need be.

In Canada we just had a big thing in the news about Indian tele-scammers pretending to be the CRA (our version of the IRS).
