Here in Australia we have the bunya pine (not a real pine) and the bunya nut . The trees (Araucaria bidwillii) grow up 50 metres - 160 feet. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Araucar...

probably not surprising since they don't have to sustain millions of tiny explosions every year.

A four-cylinder, four-stroke internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicle will combust fuel approximately 60 million to 100 million times over 20,000 km of driving, with a standard real-world estimate landing right around 80 million combustions.

or maybe she is aware and knows that it is very low risk of making her ill - not something to stop you getting cuddles with your kitty

How Common Is It for Humans to Get Sick?

Cat Bites: Extremely High - (50% to 80% contract it)
Cat teeth are sharp and act like tiny needles, injecting saliva deep into human tissue. If a cat bite breaks the skin and is left untreated, a Pasteurella infection develops rapidly—often within 3 to 15 hours. It is the single most common bacteria found in infected cat wounds.

Cat Scratches: Moderate - If a cat has recently licked its paws, the bacteria can be transferred via a scratch. However, scratches are shallower than bites, making them easier to clean and less likely to trap the bacteria deep inside the tissue.

Licks & Casual Contact: Very Low (Except for high-risk groups) -
Getting licked by a cat or simply petting one rarely causes illness in a healthy person. The bacteria cannot penetrate intact, healthy human skin.

It may seem boring but this is a response to the Murdoch press running stories about the country running out of fuel reserves.

Feb 2021 - Mitch McConnell could have convicted Trump, and barred him from ever being president again. For purely political reasons he chose not to. Now McConnell's shell is being used by Trump as a sock puppet for his own political purposes. I'm sure McConnell's final days were full of regret.

If Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell had voted to convict Donald Trump during his second impeachment trial in 2021, the immediate consequence would have been a surge of political momentum for a subsequent, separate Senate vote to permanently bar Trump from holding future federal office.
While a conviction required a two-thirds majority (67 senators), McConnell's vote to convict would likely have influenced a substantial number of the 43 Republican senators who voted to acquit.
If 17 Republicans had joined all 50 Democrats to convict Trump, he would have been found guilty. Following a conviction, a simple majority vote (51 senators) could then have been held under Article I, Section 3 of the Constitution to disqualify him from holding any future "office of honor, trust or profit under the United States." This would have legally prevented Trump from running for the presidency in 2024.
However, because McConnell and 42 other Republicans voted to acquit—primarily on the grounds that they believed the Senate lacked jurisdiction to try a former president who had already left office—Trump was cleared and remains constitutionally eligible to run for office.

Another win for Australia 🤪 www.newscientist.com/.../2532086-...

New Scientist article - "A huntsman spider found in Queensland, Australia, has been crowned the fastest spider in the world with a top speed of nearly 3.6 metres per second, according to a global study of arachnid sprinting prowess.
Currently, the official world record is held by the Moroccan flic-flac spider (Cebrennus rechenbergi) which can hit speeds of 1.7 metres per second when it is startled, using a rolling-tumbling motion. But some experts regard this as incorrect.
“The flic-flac is a special type of locomotion,” says Jonas Wolff at University of Greifswald, Germany. “It is not running and it only works downhill on sand dunes.”

Absolutely, agree on looking at our priorities, but the growth rate of the NDIS is out of control. Boundaries have to be put around it and that is a difficult and unpopular task. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-04...

A graph showing the growth of the cost of the NDIS scheme from 2018 to 2032. The actual and expected cost vs the cost that was predicted back in 2015 when the scheme was planned.
2018 cost is $20 billion vs predicted $15 billion
2032 expected cost is $125 billion vs $30 billion predicted in 2015

Didn't the US have this firmly under control by controlling it in Central America? www.forbes.com/sites/maryro...

Funding for the Central American New World screwworm monitoring and containment program was cut by the Trump administration in early 2025, specifically through the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and broad USAID budget reductions.These cuts axed a specific project dedicated to preventing the spread of the flesh-eating parasite across the U.S.-Mexico border. Shortly after the funding was removed, screwworm infections moved north through Mexico and were detected in Texas, triggering a massive USDA response.
