I’m requesting the word Craps, as in the dice game. Why is it called craps? Who came up with it? Why is it when you lose you say, “I craped out”. :???: How about the word Dice as well. What came first, the dice or the craps ? :smile:
Now how did I miss that homework assignment? Must have been one of those days I was out of the office or I was getting brain surgery. :roll:

Miss teacher, I just heard a word on a game show, Quaint. It was discribed as skillfully or cleaverly made, and at sometime the meaning changed to old fashioned attractiveness or charm. I thought it was a interesting word to request you to investigate. :???: :smile:

Miss M. you put a video on calories and have a advertisement about Hostess Cakes. This is kinda of a conundrum isn’t it :?: :lol:
http://www.youtube.com/annuddermale annuddermale
BAT vs WAT…this just in – humans & other mammals have two forms of fat, Brown Adipose Tissue and White Adipose Tissue. WAT is used for energy storage; BAT was thought to disappear in adult humans, but:
We conclude that a substantial fraction of adult humans possess active brown adipose tissue that thus has the potential to be of metabolic significance for normal human physiology as well as to become pharmaceutically activated in efforts to combat obesity.
I’m not sure where Marina got the idea that humans have “lost” the ability to use fat – we most certainly can and do gain, use & lose fat (fitness & diet-plan companies would go out of business if we couldn’t alter our fat content)…the problem may be the percentage of fat our bodies become programmed to accept as normal:
It appears that the brain can be programmed to accept a higher body weight by early-life factors, including the environment of the womb in late pregnancy and the individual’s activity level in early life. These early factors may alter development of brain pathways which regulate energy homeostasis (balance). Once the tendency to obesity develops, it can be nearly impossible to reverse weight gains. However, these early factors can be manipulated to provide a more desirable outcome and may hold promise for prevention of obesity in human beings.
I know I just lost 40 pounds before summer hit. I walked 6 miles each day. When cooler weather gets here I will start back walking. I wonder how many calories typing on this ole board takes off. :lol: :lol:
Hey Mike, I have the 7300 NVidia card in my PC. See if you can get into the BIOS and disable your on-board video. There might be a jumper on the motherboard also if it is an older board. The only other help would be to search Google for NVidia problems, the NVidia site, go to the motherboard website and search for issues or contact a local geek in the neighborhood visit a PC shop.

I think what my understanding what she was saying is that we don’t have as efficient system of removing fat as bears do.
I hope the day comes when doctors really understand how and why they body stores fat and come up with solutions to reduce obesity in mice. :lol: Its really sad to see an over weight mouse these days. :sad:

Dear Marina, Another nice video. I rated it five stars, even though I missed a kiss from you. According to Wikipedia, the calorie was first defined by Professor Nicholas Clement in 1824. At the University under my ROTC scholarship, I learned two definitions:
(1) In science courses, the calorie was defined as the amount needed to heat one gram of water by one degree Centigrade. It is spelled with a small “c”, or calorie. This is the definition provided by thewickedloki in your video.
(2) In nutrition courses, I found they use the Kilocalorie. It is spelled with a capital “C”, or Calorie. It is the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of 1,000 grams of water by one degree Centigrade. So, a large egg may have 78 Calories in nutritiopn, or 78,000 calories in the scientific definition.
It’s an important difference which you might share with your viewers in another video.
Your dear student, seesix CM6

By the way, the word calorie was first mentioned in the Nonchalant video where Marina talked about it’s word origin, meaning and homework assignment. http://www.hotforwords.com/2008/03/25/nonchalant/
http://captainjack.ws CaptainJack
I just had to look up factoid for some reason. And found a wiki post.
A factoid is a possibly spurious (unverified, incorrect, or invented) and often allegedly counterintuitive “fact” with little significance outside the possibility of its own statement. It appears in the Oxford English Dictionary[1] as “something which becomes accepted as fact, although it may not be true”, namely a speculation or an assumption. The term was coined by Norman Mailer in his 1973 biography of Marilyn Monroe[2] (this being, incidentally, an archtypal factoid itself). Mailer described a factoid as “facts which have no existence before appearing in a magazine or newspaper”, and created the word by combining the word fact and the ending -oid to mean “like a fact”
Now that was a bit interesting.

I think its just Miss M using a bit of the ‘Spice Weasel’ as they say in Futurama.

Well, I think that is ok, but my husband has a message for her. He is not going to watch the videos anymore unless she shows more cleavage again:!:
I am not jealous as I am above average in that department, but I think he is silly that he can’t still be educated without cleavage being a part of it. :wink:

Give him the conundrum test. I don’t know… find out if he retains more info from the NVC videos, or the VC/UC videos. Personaly I don’t retain much the first time thru… just checking out whats different & what’s familiar, even what’s in the little pics at the begining. I get more education in the comments section & looking up stuff after watching the vid.

I knew he was a guy. I remember him telling someone that. :razz:
Hey Marina,
I was wondering why we use the term “kipe” (don’t know if it’s spelled right) when referring to stealling. as in ‘Someone kiped my bike parked ouside!’
Hi BoArgMir, sorry, but that’s us men for you. :smile: We are all breast men from birth, it’s our mother’s fault. Either we got to much or not enough. So tell him I wouldn’t stop watching just for that reason he can still learn something, he might miss if she does wear something low cut. :grin:
http://captainjack.ws CaptainJack
Well then Daniel, that tells me your not a boater. You see, boats attract many babes. So if you can find a boat there is surely many babes on it. I don’t understand why this attraction is from but Im not complaining. You do have to be careful that you don’t get to many babes on the boat. You could sink. I use a broom or a mop to carefully push them over board. And don’t worry, they can swim. Usually they just swim back up on the boat all nice and wet. Its best to have a friend with a boat that can move up close to your boat. The babes will swim over to him, which balances things out and your friend will be great full.
I’ll do that tomorrow and go back through other vids. I need to find a link to another site someone left for me. :wink:

Hi Marina,
That old scratched “fake film” efffect is so 1960′s…. I bet some viewers don’t even know that it was caused by dirt in the film path that scratches the film, typically appearing after many showings. Of course, with video this is impossible…even with videotape that runs like film. Hey, I was a projectionist in high shool in the 60′s.
Oh and tonight when on the abcnews site and watching a news clip there was an ad (for a cell phone i think) that used YOUR theme song… I was expecting an ad promoting HotForWords… now I don’t even remember the cell phone brand. Is that a STOCK music track… It’s become, like your musical trademark.

Two mistakes:
Polar bears do not hibernate in the winter (the picture you showed was of a polar bear). Humans can certainly use fat later. In fact that is why some of us get fat. Our bodies store fat for later conversion to energy. This is because it helped our ancestors to survive. It is an evolutionary mechanism that we can’t turn off.

I’m a subscriber, right? So why do I keep clicking on the subscribe button at the end of every video?
Oh I know, because Marina keeps sending these subliminal messages “Please subscribe…”. After hearing that, what else can you do? That’s right, click subscribe… just in case maybe it didn’t work the last 200 times you’ve clicked it at the end of past videos. :-)
Have used my poetic licence in order to prove a point.
Do you know what I’m talking about when I say “poetic licence”? Is that like a licence to drive a book, or something? No… not really, but would make for a fun lesson. Consider it requested!

Well FACTS are just part of an ACT or ACTS. The F is false so you have to drop it. This leaving you only with the ACT of the information that was corrupted with the letter F to which was found to be false. We can conclude that all FACTS are false or ACTS.
My sister and I sometime go to see a movie together. Before the movie starts there is this 60 second slide that says Lowes Theaters.
We get bored easily so we take the word
T H E A T E R S
and see what words we can come up with. Now you can NOT rearrange the order of the letters. You have to read them left to right.
For example EAT THE HAT AT THE E.R.
Yes I can be left in a dark room with one word and be entertained for hours. :roll:
How are you dong tonight (day), I here it is raining there. My ex IM’ed me and said she was sick, but she was enjoying the rain. It must have cooled it down some she said last we you was in the 40′s. :eek: Of course here Phoenix it is in the 40′s a lot.

I always thought a calorie was the amount of energy that could raise a liter of water by 1 degree not a gram….. also liquid isn’t measured in grams
I’m offended that they made that poor gorilla wear a swim suit. Animals don’t need censorship! Is this world going to the dogs? And if so, please hand over the world to Kobe, he’d at least make seem cuter!

I think she caught the Conservative virus from hanging around the Fox news people. She should wear a face mask next time, or a biohazard suit. If they ask, she could just tell them she’s doing her bit to guard against terrorists.

That’s the definition of a Kilo-calorie (Calorie with a capital C), equal to 1000 calories (lower case c).
Also, since one gram of water only occupies one cubic centimetre at 39.2°F, you can’t use the volume measurement to define calories, so the mass measurement is used.
– Water Properties.
toma_calin86
I think James is wrong.
The unit calorie has historically been used in two major alternate definitions that differ by a factor of 1000:
* The small calorie, gram calorie, or calorie (symbol: cal) is the amount of heat (energy) required to raise the temperature of one gram of water by 1 °C.
* The large calorie, kilogram calorie, kilocalorie (symbol: kcal), or Calorie (capital C) is the amount of heat (energy) needed to increase the temperature of one kg of water by 1 °C, exactly 1000 small calories, or about 4.184 kJ.
Now… for my request :smile: Can you please tell me the origin of Bodacious? I think it suits you very well. :cool:
Bob
The quote of the day.
“The difference between pornography and erotica is lighting.” – Gloria Leonard
So, let’s see if I’ve got this right.
It’s erotic with the lights out, but if you do it with the lights on it’s pornography? :???:
toma_calin86
one thing I forgot to mention for James: try putting a bottle of one litre on a scale… does it tell you how big the volume is? no, it gives you the weight. therefor, one gram/kilogram used when talking about calories is correct :smile:

http://www.youtube.com/annuddermale annuddermale
Bob is correct, of course…
the problem is people get mixed up because one is a calorie (lowercase “c”), whereas the food Calorie is uppercase.

Hello Marina
I would like to request a term
I have been wondering how this term came to be
and this term is…
“quite frankly”
I was just curious about this
and i hope you do research on it
thanks for your time Marina
-your student-
by the way this is my first comment and request :mrgreen:
http://www.helloboquete.com checmark
Marina, no question your are “numero uno”, at least in the mind’s of most men who visit you here. I’m a recent fan, but I must say, from looking at your older videos and pics, you are only getting better and better. Love the new look, especially the clothes! Your site should be called TooLovelyForWords.
As a newbie here I would only suggest that the comments section be sorted into some logical order, and maybe you could add chat? Anyone who visits the site who is actually interested in more than watching you, as in the actual “word”, is interested in the comments about the specific word. It takes forever to sort through all the totally unrelated comments (like this one) to read about the word.
And much of the “commenting” is more “chat” than comment on the word, like “I’m going to bed now”. How does this relate to the word? Obviously with your gazillion visitors you have created quite the community, so it would be great for them to be able to “talk amongst themselves”, and leave this thread for actual comments on the word.
Keep up the great work! I thoroughly enjoy my daily dose of Marina to learn about the words we use every day, and thanks also for improving my fantasy life.

:arrow: (Handing in homework late): The photo above is a good example of a sisyphean task. :smile: …dependig on the lighting… :roll:

Nothing relating to the video – I just wanted to be the first to wish everyone a HAPPY PI APPROXIMATION DAY ( 22/7 ) :smile:
You had me going there for a spell. I thought I had missed PIday that was held on 3.14 :shock:
http://captainjack.ws CaptainJack
Welcome to HFW Checmark. :mrgreen: Maybe I can answer a few questions here for you. We do talk about the lesson of the day. Some days we spout off more than others. It really depends on the word and how it excites us into discussion. I do agree that the comments do look like idle chat. We have grown to become a community of friends that share a common interest. The idle chat tends to bond us a bit more. Yes, we do get off topic many times. Thats ok. You will even see Marina do the same. I hope this doesn’t discourage you.
Having comments on different pages puts people all over the website. Marina even puts new word requests on discussion of the current lesson. I agree that Marina has a good idea of keeping everything on one page so it is easier to manage. Yes it take a bit of skill filter through all the comments but in time it gets very easy.
As for you other questions and suggestion I’ll leave that up for Marina to comment on when and if she gets a chance. She does the work of 20 people to teach a gazillion students. I really don’t know how she does it.

I don’t know how many calories I burned, reading you post, but I do know I made no trip to the fridge, Never went to the fridge before responding either… Thanks for the food for thought.
Your post is not typical of a newbie, although mine may be typical of an “oldtimer”. My wife, to me is “numero uno”, I have three grown kids, “right up there”, run two succesful, time demanding businesses, built & maintain a race car on the side. And yet I took the time to read your post & respond… which was O/T.
Glad to read it to, Marina has made for herself, in a very short time, a good name in a very unusual manner. She tweeks the website often & if it isn’t to her liking she will change it or let you know, or not.
Anyways enjoy, the site & the lessons, and the body of work Hotforwords has & is putting together. I find it & her fascinating… & forgive me, I probably hang around here too much, I’m going to work now. Cheers

Chemikal, don’t you worry. She still is doing teachers pet. Just not as often as before. I think she might be doing something with the TA soon. So don’t touch that dial. :grin:
okay4now
I’m not offended or insulted, it is just too ridiculous to even imagine! Everyone knows apes can’t play lead guitar—they play bass.

Chemikal, that message is for all your friends to subscribe. Do what I do. In my trips around town I talk to my acquaintances and tell them about this great place called Hotforwords. They actually write down the website on some kind of paper. I average about 2 – 3 people a week. I hope someday they log on and say hi here.

Don’t know if anyone else has seen this but I found Marina asking someone from CoComment about the origin of paparazzi

You cant get less than that
Cj those comments you said about BEEing gave my idea for a new video Its up on my youtube page
“everyone on hfw.com is using coke..omment”

I’ve been to a million parties just like that one! Chemikalz, once the ape has a couple beers, you’ll want him to keep his shorts on around the girls, trust me on this one! He’s been learning to communicate using not just sign language but also musically.
As a student of anthropology and therefore ape behavior as well, this is a breakthrough I have been watching closely as it helps narrow the focus of my participant-observation study on party animals of the Upper Ohio Valley region. I can personally testify that the ape is finally learning his third chord on the guitar now but he still can’t play in the key of “F” yet.
We jam sometimes but you really have to keep the pool covered if you’re going to lend him your guitar, as is plainly evident in the vid. Yeah, that was Tom Ackerman’s Flying Vee he deep-sixed, a collector’s item now relegated to wall decoration duty in a pool hall in Perrysville. His favorite song to riff out on? Wild Thing, of course!

Hi James, for some of use old timers who followed the TechCrunch event, we watched the event live. There are several of those videos on Marina’s YT video page and on here too.

Au contraire! See my comment above, OK4N.

Maybe they can’t take it away but they can darn sure take the joy out of it. My first birthday while in the Navy I spent at 35,000 ft crossing the Atlantic for a 5 month deployment. Needless to say, no cake, no candles. :sad: A few months later the ’74 October war broke out in the Med; lots of candles :eek:
Miss M. Come on now which video was it that you fell down at the end. Don’t make us go back through all of them to find that one. Please. with Roses on top. :smile: :grin: :cool:
Word Request
This is more a phrase than word and I’m not sure you do phrases, but I hope you’ll consider this one! I’m wondering where “Cute as a button” came from. I’ve heard it a lot and have found myself describing a person or thing as “cute as a button”.
Thanks for your consideration and your great videos!
Wolfie06
:wink: i was wondering at the origin of the word sexy, due to the fact that you are very sexy. please investigate

ÐœÐ¸Ð»Ð°Ñ ÐœÐ°Ñ€Ð¸Ð½Ð¾Ñ‡ÐºÐ°,i have an interesting historical question to ask :are you a descendant of the great Russian hero ALEKSEY GRIGOREVICH ORLOV? it would also be so interesting if you did a nice video on your surname etymology since we know the origin of your first name very well….anyway i really think that the great Alexey is one of your ancestors… :cool:
superdanilchik
and of course i could even mention GRIGORY GREGOREVICH,ALEXEY FEDOROVICH,and many others!….

Thanks, OK4Now! Great Monkees video and one of my personal favorite Mike Nesmith songs from that era.
But a word of warning: he gets all offended by “monkey” references, since apes are a completely separate family from monkeys and are known to actually eat monkeys for lunch (chimpanzees have been film-documented to hunt and eat colobus monkeys as a fun group activity; the females really respond to a male who can bring home the monkey meat) so he takes it as a huge putdown when people request Monkees songs, especially after his third Rolling Rock. Hey, he’s got feelings, too! But I did teach him some of the chords to “Ape Man” by the Kinks, and he loves the song “Gorilla” by James Taylor although it’s still a bit more complex than his skill level allows. He usually plays the cowbell on it, with a wild triangle solo in the instrumental sections. He’s multi-talented!

Dear Marina,
I would like to make a word request.This word is walkman.I would like from where this word comes from and the uses it has today(ok i know some but i want more :smile: ).i hope it’s an interesting world.
Love,Panos.
aladinsane
Sexy, uh ? Just a lame word to define how much I am :grin: :grin: :grin:
okay4now
Pen. Apologies all around & great info., (just don’t tell the Great rockin’ Ape) was not trying to strafe simian sensibilities. [5x fast]
Pennsyltucky9 Hey, man this is your party & this song (which I’d forgotten about) is just too great not to include, & philosophically rich: “We’ve evolved to create traffic noise…” http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=_HmaAPaP-h0

hey Marina, you’ve done a GTA IV video about molotov cocktails, you did Ak-47, and military terms such as “left-tenant” and “leutenant”
I probably spelled those wrong..
What about other military terms such as “Semper-fi”, “Hooah”, “stay frosty”, “tango”, and others.
If you do those terms, don’t forget your army outfit and face paint haha

I would like to know the meaning of JESSE mi name. Thanks a lot i have been many years looking for it.

Hello Marina,
I caught myself saying a word the other day as I was driving behind some cars on the highway. The cars were driving slow and I said outloud, “Come on guys, don’t lollygag!” Could you please tell us where the word Lollygag comes from?
My friend your doing an excellent job as door greeter. I’ll send you a Walmart smock, as my father in law is a door greeter here at Walmart. :lol: :lol:

Well you do an excellent job yourself Mike. Im not old enough to be a Walmart door greeter yet.
You know thats an idea. We should have many door greeters here for HFW. Anyone else want to help?
Wow, a bunch of September babies. I feel so left out. Mine is this Friday.

Orion that is how I spent my birthday in ’06. Uncle Sam wanted to make sure I had a good one so he shipped me to the desert with two of my troops before the rest of the squadron. :roll:

Mine is Sept 20th. If I don’t get on Before then Happy Birthday Capt.

Marina the physics teacher :shock:
I haven’t been keeping up with videos lately because of my summer league. I’m sorry Marina. :sad:
tryant
Well I was gone on the road this week,got My 41 hours in by 12 Noon today and made it back home,took a nap and wanted to catch up on lessons. I’m having problems with this calorie vid,I just get the spinny,vista thing but the lesson doesn’t play. Are there problems on Your end Marina or should I try My new laptop as a frisbee?
Until now I was 100% caught up.
Your student,Tryant,lost deep within Your charms. :smile:
davecodave
Marina. Please tell me that it was not you tummy in that picture on the video? NOT POSSIBLE !!!
davecodave
That’sd a good one. I wonder if it has anything to do with the Pad-locks that they used?
davecodave
WOW ! I just got the wierdest feeling that someone asked about that word before !….(wierd huh?)
davecodave
I totally use my appenex ! It keeps my spleen away from my liver ! (they tend to fight a lot )
I think it was more of a slanderous term and not how it was locked.
I just don’t know for sure.
http://invisiblestripes.blogspot.com/ protac6
I hate those.

Strange we don’t count joules for food instead of calories.
http://emmy-de-zelaware.com lividemerald
Wtih respect to Wicked Loki (I think that’s pronounced LOW-kee rather than LAW-kee), did you notice that if you switch the syllables, Loki becomes Kilo? That adds some weight to the calorie issue, don’t you think?
animalntaz
:!: Today I just read a “Real Fact”, under a Snapple bottle cap, that a one-minute kiss can burn up to 26 calories. Hey Marina, you wanna burn some calories? :wink:
kinsa
Yeah somehow I don’t think Marina has a problem with calories. You really can’t beat her, intelligent and super sexy. The hotforprofits chick comes close but marina wins out.
