I found this article very interesting . Has anyone met a extraterrestrial,seen a ufo , been abducted, or care to share a story related ? http://www.agoracosmopolitan.com/home/Frontpage/2007/01/08/01288.html

PC's you need to constantly update your virus protection . Mac computers are virtually virus-free . The price is ridiculous , but saving the headache's of repair and down-time without a computer is great . I have had my iMAC for 3 1/2 years problem free . To use Vista functionally you probably need to go through afew tutorials . User friendly it is not . My fiancee has had her macbook for the same amount of time problem free as well . No problems ever . When I was young we had one of those original prehistoric big looking imac structured apple computers . We had that for many years as well .PC's have been nothing but problems for me .

 

Just wondering how many PCs you had and for how long did you have them?

Vegan Joe we had a gateway , HP , and my brother currently still uses his Dell . The Dell has held up well and my brother keeps up to date with virus scans . The HP , i dont know what happened . It stopped working after 3 months , a virus . If anyone wants a HP with a pentium 3 i know its outdated , 200 bucks ill ship it . And the gateway lasted and we gave it to my uncle when it was outdated .

Not sure if it will have any impact, but you could reseach as to whether or not there are any potential exemptions for religious convictions that allow one to avoid the shot. It wouldn't be too terribly hard to work to put together a case where veganism can be used to parallel such a circumstance based on ethical reasons to try and fight it - not to say it'll be successful, but when all else fails...

 

Basically, that's what I'm going for if requisite shots ever come to Wisconsin. I'lll gladly take it to court before I'm letting someone force a shot in me.

You cannot be exempt from the vaccine's due to religous beliefs . Thanks for the information everyone .

Will they have to pay me unemployment checks if I get laid off ? I signed a petition online...And yeah , I need to get to the food allergist to see if the doctor can write me a letter saying im allergic to eggs . That might void me from the procedure .

These jokers at my job are telling me I will lose my job if I don't get flu shots . Right now they are giving away seasonal flu shots . Eggs are used in this concoction . I am totally against taking these shots with what I have read . Gulliane Barr Syndrome , allergic reactions , and being forced to take a unsubstantiated drug is a big no-no . I have personally seen three co-workers become sick after taking this vaccination . And they are going to mandate a 3-stage H1N1 vaccine next . What are my rights , will I be able to collect unemployment after being suspended with out pay ? I feel like I have to stick this one out and not get the shot . At this point it is morally wrong , degrading , and ignorant to even think of letting them inject me . Scare tactics are being used to disperse these drugs with unknown effects . How can this be legal , how can NY pull this shenanigans , I am concerned .

Im big on kiwi's , I hear they are one of the most nutritionally dense fruit . I love red grapes,granny smith apples,dried apricots,watermelon,pears,ORANGES,and acai juice .I love to juice veggies and fruit combined .

yeah I agree it is better that eating at KFC but still not a good option if your trying to eat well and getting away from bad crap. Companies like Monsanto are the cause of denatured altered food and so are so many other chemical companies. If I can vote for a better food source that won't contain all that modified stuff then it will be better for my health and how are food is made.

 

As for what it means to me is what Vegan Bodybuilding quote goes by "Healthy Food Defines You"

I think I read about Monsanto awhile back in college , arent they responsible for bovine hormones ? For a fastfood joint I would not expect anything healthy or remotely organic . But I've heard "organic" is a term loosely thrown around . Is it true that they are mandated to only use a certain amount of pesticides in comparison to "regular" produce ?

You could cook meals for your family and friends so they can see (taste) how nice vegan food is. If you can't cook you could buy them the occasional vegan sausage roll, pie or ready meal. You could collaborate with your friend's girl friend. Many people think vegan food will be tasteless and unsatisfying - until they first try it.

They have tasted my cooking and love it . But stubborn people do not care about their diets until they are bed ridden . Thats what really hurts , you dont wanna see your loved one's in pain . I do not want to be ignorant and persist . I am all for this site . You have alot of people busting the horrible myth that vegans are unhealthy and weak . And that is definitely a great way to show by example the health benefits .

Being on a Vegan Diet I have been able to rid myself of chronic back pain work-related . I've also been able to breath better and have as great immunity to sickness as I did before as well . My fiancee has a contagious upper-respiratory tract infection . We have been kissing among other things , and I have not gotten sick . Alittle coarse throat was cured by some lime-water for me the morning after . My mind is clear and I just finished up whooping my friends in games of Pool , which does not usually happen . I know I sound like a self absorbed prick , but I cannot fight the benefits I have experienced .

My problem is , I want to encourage my fiancee and best friend Jimmy to try to make diet changes . But they do not want to hear anything . My best friend has wrist pain and neck pain and he is 25 . I am 24 , we are too young to be experiencing these types of pain . The funny thing is his girlfriend is also on a vegan diet for many years . And she has tried to encourage a change in his diet nutrition "here and there" .

My fiancee had angered me the other day because she came back from the doctor with Mc donalds . She had a chocolate milk shake and some chicken nuggets . I couldn't for the life of me understand why she would buy a milk shake with a upper respiratory tract infection . The things people will do to satiate there hunger is bizzare . I must admit I ridiculed her for her poor choice . I find it hard to not tell her anytime she mentions joint pain or hip pain that she would benefit from trying to change her diet .

I do not want to come off as trying to be superior , or push my ways on friends and family . Some find my logic wacky , I just want a peace of mind for their health . But conventional diets that we've been raised on make my thoughts unrealistic to them . I really don't want to make them annoyed or angry . I just want to give them the opportunity to reap the same health benefits I have experienced .

Does anyone want to share if their husband,wife,significant other , family , friends are non-vegans . And if you try to encourage them to change their diets ? How do you know when your crossing the line , when to stop . I mean sometimes you get heated in the moment , when they say ignorant things . I try to back up at those times and just give it a rest .My family and friends respect my diet , I just make my own food when going out with them .

I guess part of the problem is me . But I care for my family and friends . When I see mini corn muffins loaded up the wazoo with chemicals and ingredients it annoys me . Meat and dairy that goes to waste cause it doesnt even get used annoys me . Doritos , cheese doodles , fluff.... My family and friends are supportive of my diet . Global warming ,poor health , no compassion for other animals , its a shame the society we live in . I will pray and hope for change .

oh dam, im hungry now . im making this soon . what is tvp and tamari ?

I've heard varying things about ZMA . One study showed it helps increase testosterone . Another study said its only good if your deficient in those minerals , zinc and magnesium i believe . Some people buy the minerals seperate and its cheaper .

What do you eat in a normal day ? I love blending soy shakes to keep my weight up . soymilk , soy yogurt , ice , bananas , whatever fruit you like , dates , cocoa . Make enough so you can have with breakfast and dinner after or before your meals/and or workouts . I love my oatmeal,peanut butter , bananas , strawberries , wheat germ , and almond milk . If you ate like me , and I worked out like you .... Your looking good though , its hard when your so active to consume enough calories to gain . Keep up the great work .

i used chickpeas with cellantro , mashed em' up . olives black mashed . almonds and walnuts mashed with my hands . let them heat up in the warmers in the Kitchen . Then 2 slices of fresh tomatoe and some pickle chips crushed up . added mustard and fresh squeezed lemon juice . mixed it all up , wallah . added some potatoe chips towards the end to scoop .

I think they are italian eggplant the mini one's . I slice them thin , used bread crumbs , added lemon peppercorn garlic crackled to the crumbs, along with some sea salt . After breading I put them in the oven at 375 degrees 7 minutes then flipped them . I then sliced some tofu , crumbled the tofu , and mixed it with veganaise . I put the tomatoe sauce on top of the breaded eggplant slices then my tofu-veganaise mix next with some coarse black pepper . Waited another 10 minutes wallah .

I was suprised how it tasted so good . Even my fiancee thought it was wonderful, and she hates eggplant .

I'd have a hard time naming my favorite. I only know that it isn't Brock Lesnar

Broc Lesnar is an undeniable force in MMA . Somebody will eventually up that big head of his . Rumor is he was grappling with Gabriel Gonzaga at an exhibition and submitted him in a Kimura in around 30 seconds .

I just caught this show on the internet through ovguide.com . Dissapointing fight , wrestler ground and pounds inexperienced bjj guy . I do not think anyone would like the fact that he went to shake hands second round , and then shot for a double-leg .The tall bjj guy needed to throw some elbows from guard . I think he might have had a better chance at a reversal from a body-triangle , being he was so tall and big . No sprawl , take-down defense , ground defense for the loss .I think Wes Sims "The project" replaces the guy who gets beat . I want to see Wes Sims vs Kimbo Slice .

How do I get rid of the mouse without Killing or poisoning ? My place is clean but Im sure there are some spots around the stove and microwave that need a cleaning . Making sure there is no garbage in the night might help . Keeping dishes done directly after eating . How would you get rid of the mouse ?

this gave me some real bad gas .

toast bread , hummusoliveonion on each side , spinach/tomatoe sliced stacked between each other with coarse black pepper on top the tomatoes , tempeh seasoned and cooked in olive oil on a pan , leftover sweet corn off the cob shaved into the pan with sea salt and onion powder . scrumptious

Would you sleep easier knowing you did not have those items . Craigslist and Ebay are your friends . You can purchase used seats non leather for most cars on ebay . Acouple bolts and there off , you can sell them and recoup your cost for the swap . Selling your items will stop non-vegans from supporting killing more animals . And when you buy new things you will not be supporting killing animals . Win-Win as oppose to Lose-Lose , but if you live paycheck to paycheck like me then yeah. You may want to hold on to those things for awhile .

Have you ever tried Hemp Bread ? Which taste is better . I guess there both going to be an acquired taste for . As long is takes the guessing out of the ingredients , betters my health , and gives me a piece of mind . Then I will be happy paying the extra price .And thanks for the happycow link .

Obviously I know not to buy an bread with dairy , eggs ,or milk . But I would like to know what fortified vitamins are animal based that they put in bread so I can stay away from those products . List any good breads you eat . Thank You . And I read wheat thins are Vegan in ingredients , but I saw a calcium additive . Any clarification would be helpful . The bread I bought has a calcium additive as well , should I just steer clear of any normal grocery chain bread and purchase from the health store ?

c'mon , chatbox is necessary .
