    i have a sudden urge to move to FNQ

    Yeah, it mostly sums up how I feel about it. Crocs, dengue and other such nasties can be avoided pretty easily. Unemployment and dodgy locals, not so much. It can be a great place to be if you have the money or the means, but it can be pretty harsh too, like in the remote northern areas, and especially during the warmer months.

    Aromatherapy

    I recently got one of these bad boys, an electric vaporizer... Been having nightmares a lot lately, and thought this ought to help, but unsure of scents which are calmative for stress, and anything good to settle sleep. Do you guys do this or can recommend any? All I have is nag champa for now, clichéd maybe, but I love it...

    Aromatherapy

    Yeah I bought some frankincense resin, but... ...it doesn't! I suppose my vapouriser doesn't get hot enough, it's only like 90°C tops. What's the best way to vapourise plant resins? I've got a bag of frankincense and don't know what to do with it, lol

    Water, a highly under rated solvent.

    I'm not so sure... so-called 'water' molecules are actually made up of two (di-) hydrogen atoms with an (monoxide) oxygen = dihydrogen monoxide.

    tabaco stains on fingers and lip??? how to treat?

    Good advice! For years I used to smoke rollies too, I've still got my rolling tin. Quit a while ago now though, with some help. Like doublebenno said, it's just a part of rollies. The best way to avoid it is to stop, because the only other way to remove tar stains is to exfoliate...

    Are humans animals?

    We are all animals. ps. There are a good proportion of muppets amongst us, too.

    Looks like good stuff! Antibacterial, too...

    Aromatherapy

    The reason I bought an electric one was so I didn't go through so many tea light candles. I hadn't even thought of putting the electric one on a timer, but that's a great idea! I also like the electric one because I can keep it on at night while I sleep and it doesn't light up the room. If you're thinking of getting one though, make sure it has a switch on the cord, mighty handy, and pretty annoying without it...

    Aromatherapy

    Haha, gotta love Windows... Ultrasonic, cool! They get those oils straight into you. Probably better when you need to inhale the stuff for colds, like with eucalyptus oil. I recently bought an awesome narrowleaf ironbark eucalyptus oil from the guys at rare earth oils in Cairns/FNQ, strong enough to stun a buffalo

    Aromatherapy

    Yeah, I just looked, it seems easy to get on eBay in resin, wax and oil forms. Nice! I bought my vapourizer online here. It comes in a few colours, and is about the size of a grapefruit. My only gripe is that it doesn't have an on/off switch, so you need to turn it on/off at the wall! I'm also unsure if it vapourizes resin yet, but I'm about to find out soon

    Aromatherapy

    Haha, I didn't even know I could get those! Sweet, thanks... Unsure -- it says it burns oil and wax, but hell, I'll give it a go anyway. It gets pretty hot Yeah, it's been great, I burn through a lot of candles, so it ought to be cheaper. I'll definitely try Frankincense with two recommendations for it now, and I'll give the others a shot too. I like all those scents, just have to find them in oil and/or wax now cheers

    Blood Type Diet

    There's no scientific evidence to support blood-type diets, and even strong scientific arguments against the claims made by it. These kinds of things simply seem like money-makers for their authors. I wouldn't be surprised to see a race-specific diet or an iris-color-specific diet next, and they'll probably sell equally as many books for their authors! ( hmmm, maybe I should get to writing... $$ $$) All that aside, I do know someone who likes the blood-type diet and says it makes them feel good. Each to their own, especially if it makes them happy. While the premise of the blood-type diet might be flawed, whatever it proposes as a way to eat seems to work, for at least one. I think Chief Wiggum said it best:

    ID please - crazy looking species from FNQ

    Thank you! Yes, beautiful specimens. Difficult to determine the species, as there seem to be many lepidella with white warts, though I haven't seen any with such pointed and pronounced warts as these before. I do wonder if the species might not even be categorized yet. Amazing!
  21. Found in the Daintree Rainforest a couple of days ago. They were located around the base of some live, large Melaleuca (paper-bark) trees.

    Top 1 animal to bring to the ethno island

    I'd bring a goat, or several. They can (and will) eat everything and anything, produce milk, and are pretty darn tasty to boot... LoL @ that mincing poodle, Pyne...
