    Oh. homework yeah. Prefferd combo locks when younger, but memorizing new combinations of numbers becomes muddled as I’ve gotten older & memorized phone #s etc. I can remember the old ones but the newer ones fade faster… hmmm, is there really a way to “defrag” the brain… would be a handy feature along with maybe, escape & delete functions… Now where’d I leave my dang keys?

    :)

    Is this uploaded direct from the camera or do you need to compress it or put in a type of format?

    the partic camera i use codes video as M-JPEG (which is very high quality .. essentially a series of still images). .. so i use a couple of free progs to compress it into a mp4 container with h.264 format video and aac audio.

    i guess there might have been some sw that came with it to do that kind of thing, but i’m used to those for when i rip dvds n so forth.

    i belive there’s lots of vid cameras now that have youtube in mind and record directly in a format for upload.

    Dear совершенная Marina, I’m glad you’re back home from your vacation in Hawaii. :cool: I hope it was nice to relax, there. :smile:
    While “lock” means both a locking mechanism and also a small bit of hair, it is also used as a verb. For instance, we say that we “locked” the door.
    To answer your question, I prefer to use key-type locks. Thet’re faster and easier to use than combination locks.
    I hope you quickly recover from any “jet lag” caused by changing time zones. Remember to get enough sleep.
    Your dear student, seesixcm6

    Combination locks are best, especially if you can set the combination numbers.

    I like to set my combination to words like you do with pin numbers.

    Maybe if you went in one of those decompression chambers they use for scuba divers would help. The chamber is pressurized with pure oxygen while you lay there breathing it all in. Apparently, it pushes out nitrogen and all sorts of toxins from you body… like bad tv commercials, lousy movies, 7-11 snacks and a whole host of “rubbish!”. In place of all this, you remember the right name to all your animals and past friends, numbers to old bank accounts you left money in, ***combos to locks*** and all kinds of other wonderful things! :lol:

    I like a key lock instead of combination locks as combination locks are too easy to open by the pull down on the lock and turn the dial method. But I have a lock pick set so key locks beware, and a set of slim jims for autos with a set of miniature air bags to pry the doors of the vehicle ajar to insert a jimmy tool. Oh I forgot a number 10 shoe in case the lock pick set doesn’t work. :twisted: I thank my job for the training to be a lock picker. :lol:

    One time I used a heavy duty u-shaped lock to lock my bike to a post in a busy area. I lost the keys so I took a two 25 foot extension cords and an angle grinder to the spot to cut it. I thought I’d do this intentionally looking suspicious to see what would happen. I found an outlet at an apartment building and started cutting away the lock. We are talking serious loud noise and sparks flying 10 feet. Next, I tip-toed over to my car and tossed the bike into the trunk while looking both ways.

    Nobody gave shit.

    Don’t leave home without your Swiss Army Knife.

    I was in a borrowed Porsche once, it stalled in an intersection (my fault) when I went to restart it I snapped the key off in my haste; reached in my pocket pulled out my SAK, jambed it into the ignition, restarted the car, did all this is seconds; then went directly to the locksmith for a new key.

    okay – here’s my homework: i ref collegiate volleyball, and going ’round to different schools some of ‘em (not enough of ‘em, but some) have lockers for us to put our stuff in while we’re reffing the match. i carry a combo lock with me just for that purpose. i don’t worry ’bout forgetting the combo since i’ve had this particular lock for (***drum roll***) forty years.

    yep, it was my lock back when i was in high school, back when you had to buy a lock for gym class…do they even have gym class anymore?…

    oh, and most of my locks of hair have kinda come unlocked from my head… :cool:

    Oh I forgot one major tool. It is a 2 dollar automatic center punch. It will take out a vehicle’s side or rear window with one auto punch from this tool. This tool was designed for punching dimples in metal to start a drill point, and it crossed over to emergency services to facilitate quick entry to vehicles if a child or animal was in a hot vehicle and no one was present at the time of extrication.

    Homework: key locks (combo locks are easy to pick)
    I used to save my friends when they would forget
    their combinations. The same technique works with
    safes.
    So, lug, as in lug nuts, has a common root with a
    lock of hair? Far out! How about canal locks?

    Wooden wedges also serve well to open locked
    car doors. And, no, it won’t spring the door as
    one might think it would. Works even when a
    slim jim defeat system is in the door. You never
    know when these skills will come in handy, but
    I usually find it’s easier than getting a locksmith
    out to a jobsite when a contractor locks his keys
    in the van. One more trick is to bend a steel rod
    into the shape of a “J” and use it to tap the lock
    button up on cars with SJ defeat systems. :mrgreen:

    Excellent video Marina. 2 different origins for the same word that means 2 completely different things. The locket and a lock of hair, what a marvelous combo to illustrate the word “lock”.

    If I were to choose between combo-locks and key-locks, I’ll choose the former, since the latter is simply too easy to pick by any skilled lock picker. Combo-locks are crackable, though they do tack a bit longer.

    A little hint about numerical combinations:

    Choose a number that’s both memorable but very unique to yourself, something people who don’t know you very intimately will never logically guess out. Could be a date, a point in time, a model code of some item, whatever. That way you’ll never forget your numerical combination anymore, dear Marina. :wink:

    However, in the end of the day, both locks are quite useless if you want to completely prevent unwanted access, as both are breakable via a very common tool available at any decent hardware store.

    Your locks of beautiful blond hair reminded me of a very interesting historical fact:

    Napoleon Bonaparte, one of the greatest generals of all time (also known as the master of offense in his era), gave a lot of his loyal subjects locks of his own hair as both a form of long term memorabilia and to strengthen the loyalty of his already loyal men.

    By the way, how was your trip to Hawaii? Gorby must have ran towards you like a rocket, missing its lovely master.

    By the way, Marina, it Gorby a male or female? Just curious.

    I prefer a combination lock so I don’t have to carry around a key with me while I am at the gym.

  • http://youtube.com/user/dstrott raven62

    It depends on what I am locking, If it is a gym locker I prefer combo locks so I don’t have to carry a key. A gate, I use a key lock. Other things I use a special type of key lock which can’t easily be picked.

    What about the locks on a canal? Are those of a third origin or do they come under “fastening.”

    No Tubular Cam Locks and I do use Bio locks.

  • CampKohler

    Supra, the people that make lockboxes for the real estate industry, also makes a smaller, cheaper version for residence use, say to hold a key for emergency personnel to get in without breaking down the door. My mom has one on her house, so I got to examine its simple innards.

    It has ten buttons, 0-9, but any button, when pressed, remains pushed as the rest of the combination is entered. As a result, no number can be repeated in the combination, i.e. 1123 is not possible. Also as a result, 1234 is the same as 4321 or 1432. I did some calculations and found that these limitations reduced the possible combinations from 10,000 to 622! Whoops!

    The old McClellan AFB dock on the American river (built to put planes on barges for WWII) is a Coast Guard training facility for civilians now that the base is closed. Guess which kind of lockbox is bolted to the gate? You guessed it. I haven’t tried the 622 combos, but wouldn’t it be neat to present the commanding officer with the key?

    CO: “Thank you for the key, I guess. Oh, what’s your name?”
    Me: “Just call me melikadothechacha. It’s an indian name.”

  • hecky

    Hey,

    Another request from me, hopefully it will not go unanswered :).

    The word ‘squib’. I heard it on the radio today, mentioned as a firework that either doesn’t work or doesn’t produce a good display. However, it’s also the name of a non-magical person in a magical family in Harry Potter, and it’s also the name of a type of explosive.

    How are these things linked? Through the origin? I think this could be very interesting to see!

    Thanks!

    The oldest dated things I have are:
    1. 19th century novel.
    2. A small metal fingernail file from the 1915 World’s Fair.
    3. A silver dollar from 1921, the year my mom was born.
    4. An Eveready D cell from 1943 (cat logo). I suppose it’s a little weak by now, but it doesn’t leak.

    When I was a kid, my great uncle gave me an early 1900s Panamanian nickle (about 3/8th of an inch in diameter) that he got while in the Navy, but the tiny thing got lost. That really ticked me off.

    I also have a rock that is four million years and one day old. I know this because, yesterday, someone told me it was four million years old.

    Isn’t <i.all video “a series of frames?” I suppose you could paint the screen once and then just repaint those pixels that have changed, but has that been done? I suspect that transmitting the address of the pixels needing to be changed would consume as much (or more) bandwidth as an entire scanned frame would. (Scanning needs no addressessing as such; sending an entire scan needs only synch pulses at the start of each frame and line.) Anyone got any experience in that area?

  • CampKohler

    I saw a guy on TV memorize the order of an entire random card deck in 24.6 seconds, a personal best. (Just try looking at them all in that time!) To check, he was required to arrange a second deck in the same order. Then they compared both decks card-by-card and it was correct! His secret was that he made a memorable mental image of something like “a cat was eating a whale” for each card and strung all the images together in a story, which he told. It wouldn’t win the Nobel Prize for Literature, but i don’t think your locker combination would be much of a challenge.

  • CampKohler

    I always knew them as Ace locks. Biometric locks? Just what, um, do you put in the slot to open it? Sounds painful. :-)

    ah but .. in proper video compression .. i belived ..
    a full image is stored for each key frame (usually every 15 .. 30 frames) and difference info between frames … and key feature trajectory info is used to build up the intermediary frames .. the info is built by scanning the changes from both the start key frame and end key frame.

    in M-Jpeg, every frame is essentially a keyframe. .. i think there’s minimal compression info used across different frames .. unlike the other methods. … this means it’s much easier to get a good quality still from the video.

    … ps .. this is from memory of a half understood technology.

    HOMEWORK: I always prefer combination locks.

    Although I met a guy in the army, who CLAIMED that he knew how to pick combination locks. He said that back when he was in basic training, he would one night get up and switch around combination locks on the lockers of his platoon, just to mess with his fellow soldiers. But I don’t think that was actually true. :neutral:

    ok, folks .. time for a quiz … the [Heart Test]

    This test’s goal is to determine the true nature of your heart – your heart’s heart. Unlike the many personality tests out there, this test will determine how you best like to feel and love, rather than how you think and perceive. There are no right or wrong answers or good or evil results. This test will determine how your heart prefers to love, and also provide you with which hearts you should pursue romantically, and which traits you might want to avoid.

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/frostyEnumerator mijj
  • http://www.youtube.com/user/frostyEnumerator mijj

    [my result]

    The Healer’s Heart
    Independent, Realistic, Passionate, Indulgent

    You are the most altruistic of hearts, the Healer’s Heart. You are realistic in your approach to love and value your independence. At the same time you are very passionate about love and want to do whatever in your power to make things run smoothly. You will relieve whatever pain you can in your mate. At the same time, you recognize the need to be there for others as well. Still, you will always be there for your mate and will never hurt them if you can help it.

    Matches for the Healer’s Heart:

    The Lonely Heart
    The Lonely Heart wants to be loved, but may not know how to go about it. Your healing nature will bring out the hidden aspects of their heart and you will appreciate their intimate nature and need for love, and associate with their realistic views and want for harmony.

    The Broken Heart
    The Broken Heart needs to be loved, which is fine with you, but they also can be a bit quarrelsome, something you may not like. But your healing nature should help them with this, and your independent nature can allow you to give them the space they need to cool off. Ultimately, you will find it very rewarding to be the one to mend the Broken Heart, and you will come to cherish them.

    My result: ♥ Heart of Gold ♥
    But, you knew that already, right?
    You are 60% Independent,
    100% Idealistic,
    80% Intimate, and
    90% Indulgent!

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/frostyEnumerator mijj

    The Heart of Gold
    Independent, Idealistic, Intimate, Indulgent

    Matches for the Heart of Gold:

    The Slave to Emotions
    The Slave to Emotions values all your ideals of love, but is more dependent on it than you are. This if okay for you, because though you’re independent, you also want to be loved and being loved so much makes you happy. The Slave will definitely appreciate you for loving them, and you will appreciate them in the same way, making for a very strong match.

    The Heart on Sleeve
    The Heart on Sleeve is idealistic and intimate, just as you, but desire love and is more prone to want conflict. But being the loving type that you are, you can put up with this,k as you know their true nature, and will come to respect them for not holding back their true emotions.

    …………
    so .. whew .. we’re not competing for the same types!

    Loch = lake (Scottish), which has nothing to do with the lesson.

  • CampKohler

    In his book, Richard Feynman, the Nobel physics winner, when at Los Alamos, saw a maintenance guy open a safe quickly. He wanted to know how, so he found this guy’s lair in a nearby basement. He started passing through it every day, saying nothing. Finally he would start saying, “Hi” as he went through. Eventually, he worked up a friendship and asked him how he did it. The guy said he just tried the 10-20-30 default combo that was shipped with the safe and it worked. Feynman was disappointed, to say the least.

    Unless you have some relatives to pass the surveyor’s kit onto that will appreciate it, you should look into donating it to a museum or historical society. Things that have a definite relationship to local history have a tendency to not be recognized and thus not preserved for future generations.

    Homework: prefer keylocks, only because I can safely lock my keys inside them :-) Actually, I really think it matters not, because locks exist only to keep honest ppl honest. A hacksaw can violate either in seconds, a bolt cutter in A second. An honest person would resort to neither hacksaws nor bolt cutters, …so.. I think you take my meaning.

    Welcome Home, Marina!

  • http://calling-muggins.blogspot.com/ muggins

    I prefer key locks. However, in certain situations, a combination lock is better. Like in a gym, where you would lock your locker and go exercise or shower. It would be a convenience not to have to carry a key.

  • bsomebody

    Your result for The Heart Test …

    Slave to Emotions
    You are 50% Independent, 60% Idealistic, 80% Intimate, and 90% Indulgent!

    The Slave to Emotions
    Dependent, Idealistic, Intimate, Indulgent

    You are the most emotional of hearts, the Slave to Your Emotions. You crave love, and have high standards for love. You are very intimate and value harmony with a mate. Sometimes you may feel that you are over-emotional and see this as a curse at times, because you are so emotionally-charged, and you so greatly desire love. You might want to break the emotional chains that bind you, but find that the ideals of love and intimacy are firmly shackled to you and cannot be severed.

    Matches for the Slave to Emotions:

    The Bleeding Heart
    The Bleeding Heart is idealistic and indulgent as you are, and just as love-needy, making for lots of shared common ground. You’ll also find the Bleeding Heart to be more passionate and fun-loving, something that at first might turn you off, but you will find this will provide a perfect balance to your intimate nature.

    The Heart of Gold
    The Heart of Gold values harmony and unity just as you do, and shares your ideals of love and intimacy, but is more independent. The Heart of Gold will never leave you and always be there to love you, and this above all else you will appreciate. The Heart of Gold’s loving nature will make you feel as if you have found someone to help carry your rattling emotional chains, and that they are glad to do it.

    The Patron Saint’s Heart
    The Patron Saint’s Heart craves love just as you do and value harmony and togetherness as well, but is more down-to-earth and passionate than you. However, you will value these more sensual qualities, and the Patron Saint’s more protective and loving nature will make you feel loved needed, something value greatly.

    Your exact opposite is The Lord’s Heart.

    Avoid Explicits when possible. They’re open and frank nature is contrary to yours. You may also want to avoid Independents unless they have other qualities you seek to balance them out, as you are a person who craves closeness with another person.

    Mine is Heart on Sleeve.

    You are 50% Independent, 70% Idealistic, 60% Intimate, and 50% Indulgent!

    Heart on Sleeve
    The Heart on Sleeve
    Dependent, Idealistic, Intimate, Explicit

    You are the most brazen of hearts, the Heart on Sleeve. You are highly emotional and idealistic, and crave love, but are candid and forthcoming. You are not one to hide your emotions, and couldn’t even if you tried. You know what you want from love, and believe in the ideals of love over the sensuality of it. You are all about love in its purest form and aren’t afraid to broadcast it or to express your desire for it.

    Matches for the Heart on Sleeve:

    The Heart of Gold
    The Heart of Gold shares your loving qualities, but also values harmony and independence. The Heart of Gold will always be there for you, and you will respect their intimate nature and ability not to be taken aback by your candid and plain nature. You will find they share the same ideals of love that you do, as well as a value of your relationship as a whole.

    The Lively Heart
    The Lively Heart shares the same ideals of love as you, but is more passionate in expressing it. The Lively Heart is just as forthcoming as you, but independtent enough to not be bothered by it, lessening the clash of personalities. You will find the Lively Heart to be energetic and fun, as well as deep and complex.

    Your exact opposite is The Healer’s Heart.

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/frostyEnumerator mijj

    shhhhhh…..

    every action has a reaction … if you do a direct push you get direct resistance!

    you must use the principle of .. erm … what’sit called … erm … that stuff to do with gyroscopes .. erm .. precession!! .. which results in the reaction being perpendicular (almost) to the action.

    Marina, when I was on Oahu, I drove all around exploring. One day I saw this white egg-shaped object on the shoulder in the red gravel. I got out and found that it was a milk-glass doorknob from an old mortise lock. The quarter-inch-square shaft had been reduced to 1/16″ by rust, so it had been out in the open for years and years, possibly since the 1800′s. I still have it as a souvenir.

    So there you have my recommendation for the remainder of your vacation — just get in a car, drive the back roads aimlessly and, if you see something white on the side of the road, get out and pick it up.

    The word I’m wondering about is FRECKLE , although your piercing blue eyes are two of your best features, I’ve noticed you have a few freckles. Of course they come from being in the sun, but where does the word originate from?

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/frostyEnumerator mijj

    hmmm .. maybe the word’s not “precession” .. but you know what i mean .. don’t you?

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/frostyEnumerator mijj

    ah .. it is precession …
    from wikipedia …

    It follows from this that a torque T applied perpendicular to the axis of rotation, and therefore perpendicular to L, results in a rotation about an axis perpendicular to both T and L. This motion is called precession.

    … look what you did .. you made me give away my secret!

    I like to request the word Apocalypse, I hire it a lot these day. Therese the possibility of a depression, and a lot of people believe that the world will end on December 21 2012. Now I know the the word Apocalypse in Greek means “lifting of the veil” is a term applied to the disclosure to certain privileged persons of something hidden from the majority of humankind. But why is it Today the term is often used to refer to the end of the world, which may be a shortening of the phrase apokalupsis eschaton which literally means “revelation at the end of the æon, or age”.

Ceveat: questions posted here (in the current lesson, with replies from fellow students) may result in either a: serious replies, b: tongue-in-cheek replies or c: both, leaving you to sort them out.

    I grew up in cold war USA, and the only ‘weird’ thing I found in the movie was the discovery that some of the carachters existed only in Nash’s mind… :smile: …and being astonished at his wife’s tenacious love for him throughout the whole ordeal.

    Homework: I prefer the “three lock box” variety, as described in a quote by Sammy Hagar (from Wikipedia)…

    “It’s got to do with deep sea diving, when you look for a buried treasure. The ultimate treasure would be a sunken treasure with three locks on it, because that means it was the most valuable stuff that the queen had on that ship. And you need three different guys with keys to open it, that way no one could steal it. So a ‘Three Lock Box’ to me is within yourself. If you unlock the treasure of your physical, and your mental and your spiritual potential – those three in balance – you are a real human being and almost godly.”

    Just like you, Marina…almost godly! How many keys does it take to unlock your potential? :wink:

    I’d like to make a word request. “Alaska” I understand its Russian in origin but what is it derived from and what does it mean. I live in Alaska and I’m understandably curious.
    Thanks

    Since the election has dominated the news lately, how about the word “Poll?” It’s an English word that once meant “head”, hence the name poll tax for a per-person tax. However, in the United States, the term has come to be used almost exclusively for a fixed tax applied to voting. Since “going to the polls” is a common idiom for voting (deriving from the fact that early voting involved head-counts), a new folk etymology has supplanted common knowledge of the phrase’s true origins in America.

  • leonard

    i second the poll tax and will run to Poland and tell on you :wink: :lol: Slow Speed is phuKing Slow, luv

  • tiger13cd

    what about a third meaning…

    a lock is also used in shipping. when you raise or lower a ship in canals. like the in the great lakes there are some 40 – 50 locks that a ship has to go through…

    where did that meaning come from????

  • the-scientist

    I’d like the know where the meaning of “bangs”, as in a fringe, came from.

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/frostyEnumerator mijj

    swizzle-sticks!!

  • tryant

    I dunno,but,could that also be related to “loch”-meaning “lake” in Scottish? Like “Loch Ness Monster”. Or would it just mean that the doors lock shut to fill as it lifts a boat?

  • tryant

    You know,like “Lock and Dam” system,,least that’s what they call them on the northern 1/2 of the Mississippi,used to regulate river height and allow the passage of barges and boats.

  • tryant

    Marina,,or,,TAs,ATTENTION PLEASE..TY!.

    I finally figured out that mousing over the cocomment bar thing at the bottom of these post/reply boxes was causing the pesky “about coComment” to jump up into My way! LOL. After I learned to “X-out” of it to get rid of it,,then,,the darn “X” option isn’t there anymore!,,it was replaced by the “menu” arrow..I reeeeallly dislike that thing but see no way to get rid of it,,what the heck am I missing here?

    Lock ‘n’ load.

    So, okay, I have a stinker of a word to ask about. I don’t know if it’s in good taste or not, probably isn’t. What kind of word is fart? I mean is it descriptive? Like the first time i heard this word, nard I knew what they meant.

  • chickenh0use

    Oh Teacher,I am having a hard time to lock in my concentration lately.I seem to have to watch your videos at least 2 or 3 times before really getting the full meaning of what you are teaching! I try to look at your face and really listen to you intentively so I get it right the first time, but when something pops up on the screen somewhere I look and then get distracted and have to scan over my Hot teachers lovely body! Any suggestions?
    Thank you :wink:

    I’m so Sorry i just want to know where the word cancer came from and my father relay had cancer :cry: :evil: :neutral:

  • asuper

    i use key locks, so much easier

  • CampKohler

    You will have to recalculate. You may use up to six digits in the combination (if memory serves). Now other-than-four-digit combinations may be weak and thus unsuitable, but the user is not prevented from their use, so they must be included in the count.

    Sorry I did not include this bit of esoterica, but I didn’t forsee your rigorous thought process. On this site, we’re lucky to get the guys to count above two. :roll:

  • hutchiee

    I prefer keys, if I had to remember a combination for everything I have to get in to I’d forget at least half of them.

    Hmmm… sounds like what I have to do for passwords for every site or application I use…

    How about a word origin for “password”, I’m sure it has an interesting history.

  • http://video.on.nytimes.com/?fr_story=8743f055c4696b70a371248cb110ddc89a953023 Fianchetto

    So, it would be (# of 6-digit combos)+(# of 5-digit combos)+(# of 4-digit combos) = 252+210+210 = 672, Closer, but I may have very easily miscalculated. :grin:

  • CampKohler

    Don’t forget the 3-, 2- and 1-digit combos, either. If you have already gotten to 672, maybe it was me that got it wrong. Anyway, I am recalling the number from over a year ago, and, who knows, I could be wrongish. The point was that the design put a serious restriction on the number of combinations and most users would have no clue of the weakness. The instruction sheet sure wasn’t gonna mention that! BTW, GE blister packs these with the Supra name visible; they are found in the doorbell section, I guess on the grounds that it is something that goes on a door.

  • http://video.on.nytimes.com/?fr_story=8743f055c4696b70a371248cb110ddc89a953023 Fianchetto

    adding 120 3-digit combos, 45 2-digit combos and 10 1-digit combos yields 847 (still not more than a couple hours’ work for a thief who knew the owner wouldn’t be around for that period of time), but I can’t help asking the point of (particularly) a 1-digit ‘combination’ to secure anything. Then, again, in WWII, the Germans wired all their Enigma machine keys to the entry rotor simply in alphabetical order for non-steckered keys, if other than the ‘it’s so simple, who would think of it?’ (besides Marian Rejewski) :grin:

    Yes, you are correct Big “L”….but not Macademia, or Cashew nuts. Not even Walnuts. Not Pistachios, nor Leechi Nuts, or even hex nuts. I would mention what kind of nuts, but I don’t have the huevos to be so bold to speak of such sensitive and rude things.

    ….this British defeat at Yorktown effectively ended the war. Yorktown also figured prominently in the American Civil War (1861-1865), serving as a major port to supply both northern and southern towns, depending upon who held Yorktown at the time.
