A downloads is the number of how many times the torrent has been downloaded according to its tracker record
A seeder is a peer that has a complete copy of the torrent and still offers it for upload. The more seeders there are, the better the chances are for completion of the file
A leech is usually a peer who has a negative effect on the swarm by having a very poor share ratio - in other words, downloading much more than they upload. Most leeches are users on asymmetric internet connections who do not leave their BitTorrent client open to seed the file after their download has completed. However, some leeches intentionally avoid uploading by using modified clients or excessively limiting their upload speed. The term leech, however, can be used simply to describe a peer - or any client that does not have 100% of the data
A peer is one instance of a BitTorrent client running on a computer on the Internet that other clients connect to and transfer data. Usually a peer does not have the complete file, but only parts of it, however, peer can be used to refer to any participant in the swarm (in this case, also known as a client). Note that the colloquial definition of peer is anybody, leech or seed, involved in a torrent
A health (or avaiability) the number of full copies of the file available to the client. Each seeder adds 1.0 to this number, as they have one complete copy of the file. A connected peer with a fraction of the file available adds that fraction to the availability, if no other peer has this part of the file. (ie. a peer with 65.3% of the file downloaded increases the availability by 0.653, when two peers who both have the same 50% of the file downloaded and there is one seeder the availability is 1.5)

"The key is surrender and a dissolution of boundaries, dissolution of the ego and a trust in the love of the Goddess which transcends rational understanding. There will come a moment which will be an absolute leap into space, and we will simply have to have the faith that there is something waiting there, because the dominator style has left us no choice."
Prepare for an evening of intellectual stimulation as three men, Rupert Sheldrake, Ralph Abraham and Terence McKenna, lead viewers into a discussion on chaos theory and "the world soul."
Mixing conventional disciplines with branches of cutting-edge science -- and stirring in some New Age mysticism for good measure -- this threesome feeds virgin minds morphogenesis, mathematics, shamanism and ethnophamacology, and savor the potentially awesome effects such a concoction will probably yield.
This eclectic stew results in a feast that purports to connect humanity within the larger framework of the cosmos!
"We sit in the evening and talk and what happens is synergistic, miraculous, growth, evolutionary... I mean thrilling because of going to the edge, going beyond the edge, having company there." -- Ralph Abraham < http://www.ralph-abraham.org/ >
"The flutter of the moth's wing can trigger the hurricane. This is not a poetic statement. This is the fact of the matter within this kind of description of nature. In other words, very small changes create cascades into where whole states shift and are perturbed." -- Terence McKenna < http://deoxy.org/mckenna.htm >
"We dream of a world in which nature is seen as alive, in which the imagination permeates all reality, in which animals and plants are seen as a part of the living texture, the living components, the cells in the life of Gaia and Gaia in the life of the cosmos as a whole." -- Rupert Sheldrake < http://www.sheldrake.org/ >
