    Yup, I’m a Maverick and have received many awards for being so.
    One of awards I received was written about in the Honolulu Star Bulletin on page 3.

    ok .. i’m gonna point y’all to my new vid again in case it’s missed from the previous page .. [8 eight]

    … appropriate actually, because in my vid there’s some maverick green thingies escaping from some orangy/yellow thingies.

    ‘Top gun” admittedly, is pretty… how you say it , corny, but my 18 year old kid bought the DVD & has watched it three times

  • http://mentalgrammarhasbeensetup.blogspot.com alex

    i don’t know, man. there’s things that can just lower the coolness of a movie. that genesis song? come on.
    arizona dreams could’ve been one of the best movies ever. but that fish, that fucking flying fish

  • http://mentalgrammarhasbeensetup.blogspot.com alex

    corny? no, it wasn’t corny. it was cool. i mean, they made that movie in … ’85 or something?

  • BillyB

    Cool Faye Dunaway…wow… I haven’t seen the arizona dreams movie before (must see soon). Hey the genesis song was cool, ’til Miami Vice killed it. And yes the hollywood (so called) love story part of Top Gun is corny, but the flying scenes & music are good. If the music wasn’t good my kid wouldn’t have liked it.
    Rebecca De Mornay realy did it for me in the day…what can I say…I can’t help it I was born a white guy.

  • gavi5150

    Hey Marina I wanted to know…. well please dont take me as a wrong person or sick minded freak but what or where does the word “Dildo” come from?

    How about the word “decimate”. Many people seem to confuse it with “devastate”.

    “The town was completely decimated by the tornado.” It just can’t be!

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/dezdkado Dezdkado

    I haven’t seen collateral, but last samurai and top gun are great. Did Berlin (the band) protest the movie top gun because they didn’t want their hit song Take My Breath Away associated with an American “war” film?

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/dezdkado Dezdkado

    Yes, interesting Roman practice…

  • http://mentalgrammarhasbeensetup.blogspot.com alex

    they protested? really? i don’t know …

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/dezdkado Dezdkado

    I remember vaguely that they considered the movie to represent American aggression. I think the band was getting flack for “selling out” to the big US movie industry and needed a face-saving response to mollify their fan base.

    Check out this old classic Berlin song… The Metro. Forget all of the 80′s clothing, but I think the lead singer looks similar to Marina.

    Some say the world will end in fire;
    Some say in ice.
    From what I’ve tasted of desire
    I hold with those who favor fire.
    But if it had to perish twice,
    I think I know enough of hate
    To know that for destruction ice
    Is also great
    And would suffice.

    Look a piece of the rug got up and walked across the screen. :shock:

    I guess I’m like everyone else and would like to think of myself as a Maverick. But then would I still be a Maverick? :wink: :lol:

  • orion_ss1

    There is a news ( it was on CNN so yes it was news ) bit about SNL’s impersonation of Palin tipping her hand as if drinking and making a reference to ‘Mavericks’ in the clip.

    Then HFW does an item on ‘Maverick’ suggested by a gent in front of several bottles of alcohol.

    I admit I missed the reference. Any help?

    Thank you.

    Hi Marina, this is ChrisWalsh726 from youtube.

    I am extremely inquisitive about this word, so I owuld like to know the origin of the word ”independence”, since it’s become such a prestigious word for history in terms of political and government entities. Thanks.

    Dear совершенная Marina,
    I woke up this morning and what did I find
    but a fresh new video from Marina’s great mind.
    Seeing you again is such a delight
    yet I see you posted it after midnight.
    You worked so late to make it the best,
    so I hope this weekend you get some nice rest.

    For your homework, the only area in which I am a maverick, as you defined it, is my unusual attraction for a Russian girl who is unattainable to me. :sad:
    There was a movie called “Maverick”, with Mel Gibson and Jodt Foster. I’ve seen reruns of a TV series called “Maverick” with James Kelly, Roger Moore, James Gerner and others. Ford made a car called the “Maverick” from 1969 to 1977, so we hardly see any of them, now. Your dear student, seesixcm6

  • tok-715

    Am I a maverick?

    I am a person with a strong sense of right and wrong and refuse to be coerced or forced into any form of doctrine which I find ultimately unjust. I refuse to conform to anything just for the sake conformity (i.e. no good reason for it).

    Does all the above qualify me as a maverick?

    Excellent work on this video. I never knew that the word that refers to non-conformist actually came from a cowboys name, though I’ve known about the use of such a name for quite a while.

    Still waiting for the origin of Hitman. ;)

    Marina -The Halloween Movie

    The smell of sawdust filled my nostrils in the cold refrigerated air of a meat locker, floating in a dream like state surrounded by bodies of young men hanging from meat hooks.
    There at the other end stood a young lady, her hot breath made a cloud of vapor in the cold air, in her hands was a still beating heart, her lips and cheeks covered with fresh blood . I asked her, “Marina, Why?
    Her reply, ” I need the warm hearts of young men to keep me young.”

    That’s the plot, just add some music, which one of you creative people can make a video of this.

  • <=Who’s foot is that? LOL

    The story of him being lazy is a stretch. He was a lawyer, a rancher, a land lord, a fighter in the Texas Revolution, and a part of his local militia. He was a very busy man. Some say he was unconcerned with ranching… maybe… he certainly was more concerned with selling land than ranching. And there were laws in Texas at the time that required a rancher to brand his herds. Maverick actively and continuously refused to do so… and saved himself a lot of money by bucking the system.

    James and foxbow, try the following and let me know how it works.

    First, I am presuming, what you mean by “many attempts at logging in”
    refers to you not seeing the comment text box. Is that correct?

    If this is so, then all you need to do after you have logged in, is “refresh / reload” the page.

    For example, occasionally, I will log in and the text in the upper right will say “Log Out”, which means I am logged in, but the comment text box does not show up and there is no “reply” link underneath comments. All I do is click “reload / refresh” the page and the text box appears.

    I’m glad that it worked for you Che.

    foxbow, re: “ending up on a certain page”
    Marina has configured this site so that you will end up on the same page from which you logged out. If you logged out of the dashboard page, you will log back into the dashboard.

    Re: “Logged In” status in upper right.
    When you log in, it is correct that you sometimes see the log in status show not logged in and when you navigate to another page, the status shows correctly. My guess is that it has to do with the way the pages are refreshed or not refreshed and the way the site / template handle cookies and session IDs.

    Marina being a total geek has much more knowledge of her site than I do. I vaguely remember her mentioning something about that many many months ago and it having to do with added security.

    re: “What would happen if you used a different number at the end?”

    as far as i can tell there’s three variations of playback in YouTube:

    this assumes the vid uploaded is:
    * mp4 container
    * aac stereo 128kb/s (or better) sound
    * h.264 600kb/s (or better) video

    so… lets say the vid is my “8″ vid:

    you could have the plain link:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xPFQpWm31nQ

    add &fmt=6 to the end:
    video: good quality
    audio: lo quality (96kb/s mono)
    (this is what you get when you see the “watch in high quality” link below the YouTube video)
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xPFQpWm31nQ&fmt=6

    add &fmt=18 to the end:
    video: good quality
    audio: hi quality (sound at the quality uploaded)
    i.e like “watch in high quality” but with better sound
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xPFQpWm31nQ&fmt=18

    I searched, but I didn’t find any other &fmt=… numbers.

    “What would happen if you used a different number at the end?”

    YouTube lists all of the possible format codes on one of their Help pages. Anoher code I remember is &fmt=6 which means use the H.263 codec. Wiki has an OK article about “You Tube” Wiki is having problems at the moment.

The wrecker crew tried to pull him out from under the bridge, but to no avail. A little boy walks up and says why don’t you let some air out of the tires and the truck was pulled to safety. All for free thinking of a little boy.

    Karl it could have something to do with using the Turbo mode on the dashboard or Google gears. I had put that into effect on my computer and what it does is save more in the cache so the page loads faster and doesn’t have to reload every single item. That’s my understanding of how it works. I uninstalled both and don’t have any more problem with what they are talking about. The site is a tad slower, but I don’t have the login problems I used to have. Does that make sense?

  • pedantickarl

    re: … Google gears, etc. (below)
    Yes, Mike, what you said down below does make sense.
    I don’t use Google gears or any kind of caching, but I’m not sure that it should be an issue with login issues per se.

    What many people describe as “login in problems” may actually be normal, but to the user (you, me and everyone else) it looks like a problem. Specifically, it has to do with expired cookies and cookies that become invalid maybe due to site tweaking issues or when one leaves the site. I counted 17 HFW cookies and 1 PHP session ID.

    Marina would be the one to clarify whether the login issues some people are having is a site issue or whether it is an anomaly and if anything can be done about it.

    I have no complaints as I am familiar with expired cookies and session IDs and I just Refresh the page to solve the issue. Also, the browser one uses makes a difference. I mostly use SeaMonkey, then FireFox and almost never use MSIE.

    If Marina says that there are no site issues and if it is an anomaly., then I would be glad to create a web page to describe the issue. Marina did some tweaking earlier this year to increase the security to the site which changed some site behaviors.

    Since you liked Google gears, see if you can install it again, then if you have the login issue, just Refresh / Reload the page at the time of the problem.

    HFW site login anomalies:
    Hello Marina, several people have mentioned having login issues. The short term solution is to do a page Refresh / Reload which works.

    I know that you have tweaked some Ajax things in the past and other things like turning off Digg, etc., due to other issues.

    I just did some tests and here is my findings:
    1. The login page is that plain white page with light blue login box.
    After entering the password, it takes one to the HFW Home page (or other) at which point the login status in the upper right should show “Log Out”, which means one is logged in.

    In almost all cases, the indicator says “Log In” which confuses people. By Refreshing / Reloading the page, the indicator shows correctly.

    Is the result of the log status an Ajax or other site tweak since the indicator is not updated when the Home page is displayed?

    2. In the past, when Iogged out of a particular video page, and then logging in again, it would take me back to that video page. I just tested it by logging out of this video page. When I logged back in again, it took me to the Dashboard, as that happened to other people as well.

    If you need any assistance, message me
    on my YT or account here. :smile:

    Yeah.I’m a “dyed in the wool” maverick,,no mistake there,,but,,I try to be friendly to folks at the same time,,does that muddy-up the maverick moniker?!?!?

    Lemme try this again,,,I am 73.856397736% maverick,,the remaining percentage falls somewhere in the normal range as to beliefs/actions/personality. LOL,,I just looove this homework.

  • louie

    Good evening Marina,

    Thank you for the interesting video. I often think of what a proper name means. I believe your last name means “eagle.” Perhaps “Maverick” also has a meaning?

    I consider myself an occasional maverick. It depends on the circumstances. For example, I believe there is an intelligent hand behind nature and this has put me in the definite minority when conversations on evolution and creation arise.

    My best to you and your doggy,

    Louie

    re: my suggestion…

    I find that Marina does many of the more risqué words on her Maxim radio bit. I have (just now, as a matter of fact) suggested that she make a list of those words as well, either integral to the video list, or as a seperate list altogether such that they may be referenced/linked when requests for these words are made. Additionally, I have since recalled that she has stated somewhere that “there are no ‘reject’ words.” But there still may be some that she may wish neither to make a vid for or do on Maxim. I suggest asking her directly via the contacts page. Please feel at liberty to quote me from here or our YT correspondence, and good luck! :grin:

    In the sense of contemporary jazz radio, I consider myself a maverick. The reason is I’ve strived not to sound like a typical smooth jazz format DJ or play the same songs that a typical smooth jazz station would play. How many times do we need to hear “Songbird” by Kenny G or “Lily Was Here” by Candy Dulfer? But I digress. I’m not even in radio at the moment. :sad:

    The ordinary meaning of creation is the making of the universe from the void by the divine hand. That is what I meant by intelligent hand. If you take the pure evolutionary position to its first principle it comes to no more no less than a faith in the accidental and in chance. I refuse to believe that something as beautiful and perfect as Marina’s blue eyes could ever be the result of two random bits of matter hitting eachother by accident long ago. No the author of beauty is Beauty itself or, the Divine.

  • tryant

    Basically,yes,but it is the accidental dna change that creates an “odball” of the species wich happens to have physical advantages for the environment,the odball survives and propogates. It will be interesting someday(future gens) to see what happens with a species that can knowingly exercise some degree of control over the environment! Might just stagnate human evolution! Naaa,not likely. Prolly be just the opposite if the population keeps growing and *every* gene mutation gets to propogate!!

  • nw2394

    If “maverick” simply means “independently minded”, then I guess a lof of us would say we are mavericks. However, I’ve always thought of it as meaning someone who is not just independently minded, but a “bit of a loose cannon” as well, someone who a senior or other person in a position of authority would find difficult to trust. If that is a fair shade of meaning, then I guess a lot less of us would be happy with the title “maverick”.
