    In truth, unless we are raising our own animals and produce (veggies and fruits) and never eating any processed or store-bought foods at all ... I don't see how we can avoid all the chemicals and whatnot packed into to our food in this modern day..


    "We are what we eat"... in your case, I'm just going to leave it at that wink.gif

    in the topic Torrent Harvester in the forum Science & Technology in the Netherlands

    maymaud (Jan 8 2009, 12:44 PM) said: > original post
    I want to watch certain television programmes that I have previously missed through my computer. I have heard about a download - Torrent Harvester - that will enable me to do this. Has anyone else used this/downloaded Torrent Harvester and if so - what do you think of it? Any info would be appreciated.



    If you are a windows o mac user, I would recommend utorrent:

    http://www.utorrent.com/download.php

    if you are a linux user, I would say go for Vuze.

    a guide to use utorrent can be found here:

    http://www.utorrent.com/beginners-guide.php

    to find the torrents for the tv shows you want to watch:

    http://www.mininova.org/

    (Click on "Categories" and then TV Shows, you will find a long alphabetic list of all shows, click on the one you are looking for).

    if you want to check on the shows that were broadcasted in the US the night before, go to:

    http://www.mininova.org/today/

    and then scroll all the way down to "TV Shows"

    another good source of tv shows is EZ TV:

    http://eztv.it/index.php

    also, click on "Show List" on the top menu bar and you will get to an alphabetically ordered list.

    if you have any questions, post them here and I'll try to answer them.

    (Oh yea ... now I'm seeing that thread ended up in the toliet again .. just like all the others. sad.gif That's why I don't bother anymore. Same people each time some carrying different nick names so they can log in several times and have conversations with themselves so they can support their own arguments .. unreal ohmy.gif )



    I guess it's easier for you to think that the same person holds several accounts rather than face the fact that so many people find you annoying.

    It's not that I disagree with you, it's the bloody Oprah tone in everything you write.

    in the topic Irfak - WTF?! in the forum Netherlands Soapbox
    Can someone please tell me if this is a hoax? I am hoping it is, but couldn't find any definitive answer. It's even made the Spanish/ Mexican/ Italian news, but journalists seem to be taking this seriously? I refuse to believe it can possibly be true...

    http://www.irfak.org/over.html

    Fat to Food Recycling

    IRFAK heeft in de afgelopen jaren een optimaal productiesysteem ontwikkeld waarbij de afvalvetten verkregen middels liposuctie geschikt worden gemaakt voor menselijke consumptie. Deze vetten worden in de vorm van donaties door IRFAK ontvangen.
    IRFAK wordt hierin gesteund door diverse internationale klinieken welke een uitgebreid scala aan liposuctie mogelijkheden in hun pakket hebben. Een van onze zakenpartners hierin is van Gerven en van Iersel Cosmetische Chirurgen.
    De hoogste prioriteit bij IRFAK is: “een essentiële bijdrage leveren aan het oplossen van de wereldwijde voedselproblematiek,met de nadruk op gezonde volwaardige voeding toegankelijk voor iedereen.” Voor onze zakenpartners welke de liposuctie vetten aanleveren is het hoofddoel een lagere kostenpost in het kader van hun afvalverwerking.

    They claim to make food out of fat taken off liposuctions... and then use it as high energy bars in third world countries... even if it is a hoax, I wonder to what purpose? could it be the next show from the organ donor producers of last year?

    in the topic EUR400 a room in a 2 bedroom appartment in Amsterdam (5mins from Central) in the forum Housing in the Netherlands
    you really are not offering a house share here. I know I would have to be very desperate in need of accomodation to rent out a place where I am neither allowed to have a beer in my free time, nor invite friends for dinner of just to hang out.

    Must be very joyful to live with you unsure.gif blink.gif
