Degree

Hello

I have a degree in History. I’m working on a degree in Theology. I’m planning to get degrees in Anthropology (or Archaeology, a subset of Anthropology) and Apologetics.

Howdy Pilgrims

yea I do have a some degrees

{ at this moment the oven is set at 325 degrees }

Happy Thanksgiving to all… I must now depart to help with mashing the potatoes… and filching pumpkin pie.

5th

What happen to the vid on YT
it was up then removed?

So no ‘talk turkey’ lesson, must have been less interesting to you

Dear Marina,

Great lesson on this glorious Thanksgiving. Thanks so much.

We have so much to be thankful for. I also ask the HFW community to keep our friends in India and Mumbai in our thoughts and prayers in the aftermath of the the horrible terrorist attacks.

Happy Thanksgiving! Q

I would like to know the origin of the word ” Computer”…Thanx

Amen.

Also, there is another use as in an expression.

I went out until late last night… when I got home, my girlfriend gave me the “third degree!” :shock:

Yes. Music. Again, HAPPY THANKSGIVING everybody! Thanks, Dear Teach. Always.

Dear Miss Marina Orlova,

I thoroughly enjoyed this lesson. Thank you for another mystery solved. That is excellent to have 2 degrees, though you are so hot if I touched you I would get a 3rd degree burn. … And it would be certified because you are our Teacher.

Your Student,
ThoughtOnFire

PS HAPPY THANKSGIVING HOTFORWORDS :grin:

TURKEYS!!!

Amen.

I have a BSEE and have completed the coursework for my Masters.

I also have numerous other ( non-related ) certifications, which, with a couple of dollars, will get me a cup of coffee almost anywhere.

Happy Thanksgiving to all.

Should we remake the circle to have 365 degrees?

And on other planets are there more or less degrees of a circle?

BRAINS!!!

The mysterious Masons have degrees also :???:

Body temperature 98.6 – Keith

Kinda lost video quality on this one. IS it just me or did everyone notice?

Did you notice she removed this vid off YT for a while then uploaded it again? Must have been some type of technical flaw.

Go easy on the mash potatoes today. :mrgreen:

Marina:

Hi. Excelent lesson. I wanted to know the origin of the word “cakewalk”, as in an easy process or an easy time.

Hugs and Kisses (chocolate ones).

If ur going to have Gorby on the mat while you do the lesson you need to get him a matching outfit. :mrgreen:

{ way to go mess with Gorby’s sexual orientation }

Boy do I know what you mean. You should see the (non)impact my music degree makes in the “business” community.

it should be back to high quality. When I first upload videos, the high quality version is not available right away.. so I embed the low quality version on the website (or else it shows Video No Longer Available) and then when the HQ version is available I manually go in and embed the HQ version.

Che Volay, the version I first uploaded was shifted to the left.. so I pulled it and uploaded a corrected version.

HAMS!!!

Homework :cool:
I have two degrees, one in history and another in graphic design!

Marina – great lesson; You have encircled me, 360 degrees with heated (a high degree of) contemplation – you have my undivided attention. I have two degrees – one in emotional geography and one in spatial analysis; your linguistic space drives my emotion. My word request is EMOTIVE (feelings in space) Thanks – luv your channel.

No degree here. Was in school to be a teacher of mathematics. On summer break I got into cooking, liked it, and stuck with it ever since.

Would love to go back to college just to go. I would study History, Math, Politics, buisness, and what ever else intrests me.

My only degree is in the School of Hard Knocks.

This lesson did not mention degrees of longitude or lattitude. Nor why those got divided into minutes and seconds.

And please get back off the floor. All I can think about is how your hipbone is grinding away at your poor, tender flesh. You will need a massage I am sure to recover. Call me. :grin:

:grin: HAPPY THANKSGIVING Marina :grin:
What are you thankful for?
Me I’m thankful for the close friends that I have, my son, and to have a wonderful teacher like you who comes into my house (via internet) every day.
GOBBLE GOBBLE

Noooooo! Don’t change that. The thing about 360 is that it can be divided into halves, quarters, thirds, sixths and twelfths. Instead of “making a 180,” do you want to say, “make a 182 and a half?” And a 90-degree angle would be 91.25 degrees. A right triangle would have to be a wrong triangle. :???:

It gives me the willies just thinking about it.

LITTLE WHITE DOGS!!!

No! I didn’t mean it! Erase this.

Before machines, the word referred to people who did calculations. What a tedious job that must have been.

Tofurkey :shock:

Thanks for the clarification, Happy Thanksgiving Marina :grin:

Bachelor of Science

Bachelor of Science degree

Huh, what happened?
Where’s a [delete] key when you need it.

You would make a fine Chef Smokey. I know your a cook, but just think of what you have learned and you could apply it towards that. Chef’s make a lot of money and a great Chef has a great reputation. :wink:

:grin: Thank you Marina for another great lesson! And I hope you have a Happy Thanksgiving! :cool:

Thank you Capman :grin:

actually 365.25; well ACTUALLY that’s not EXACTLY correct ’cause we have no leap year every hundred years EXCEPT when the year is divisible by 400, its just a can of worms you don’t want to open

Maybe we should go to metric; 100 degrees and done. :smile:

I have a Fire Science Degree. Even though I can’t fight fire anymore I can still teach fire courses and do live burns. Great lesson Marina. Degree has many meanings and I am glad you cleared that up with a great lesson. :smile:

Once you get your first job the degree and your grades in school really don’t matter.

It should be noted that I never actually used my degree.

Damn liberal video

If you find something you like ( something that you can make a living doing ) stick with it. Money is nice, but being happy at work is something a lot of people with good PAYING jobs would kill for.

Math is my passion but I do see why some could be less than enthused.

Quorn.

for all you ppl with OCD just give it up today because your food is going touch the other food in your plate today

Once you get your first job the degree and your grades in school really don’t matter.

I realised that quite early on and never completed my degree.
I dropped out and joined the Navy instead.
Second best thing I ever did – the best thing I ever did was leaving the Navy. :lol:

I makes all the flavors so much better when they touch. It’s all going to mix when it hits the ole tummy anyway. :grin:

STOP-POTS

racecar

Same here EXCEPT while in I got a Navy scholarship, went back to school, finished, and the 3 1/2 years in college counted on 20. Not a bad deal.

Having said that you ( USUALLY ) need the degree to get your foot in the door.

Palindrome.

{ . o O thinks … is a palindrome somewhere where people go to race cars fitted with governors?}

Nice lesson, happy to sit in that class.
Can I make small addition called “strange stories of words”? Polish “stopieÅ„” (similar to Russian, right?) means both degree in geometry and in scientific career (not so modest homework – I have a PhD by the way :), but also means “a stair”.

Hannah

You should see about getting into the Masons. You can meet a lot of influential and connected people that way. The only problem is that another Mason has to invite you to come to one of their meetings. You just can’t walk in and want to join. :smile:

redivider

I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Communication Arts from C.W. Post. Haven’t gone for my Master’s yet.

i have three degrees (B.S., M.S., Ph.D.)…none of which i now use (long story)…i also have a couple of computing certs, and an accounting cert, plus other coursework adding up to way too much schooling and not enough earning…i’ll never be able to retire…

but i do appreciate your inclination…(-;

{ psssst giving you the secret handshake } :razz:

Hey all you Canucks don’t you celebrate something today?
Like Harvest Day or something.

Turducken

that was why i had six different plates…

yeah, that was why… :cool:

instead of stopping Pots can’t we just dead Pan?… :cool:

getting sleepy now, very sleepy
too much Tryptophan Zzzzzzzzzzzz

The School Of Hard Knocks gives bruises and cuts instead of degrees,it doesn’t care for Bachelor,Baccalaureate,Bitch or Bastard,,education hurts :!: :lol:

lmao… :lol:

Tryptophan huh? Ever try that over Benzo’s house? Just don’t chew,ole Benzo cooks for effect,not good taste :lol:

only got two choices
take a nap or
caffeine

Happy Thanksgiving Class and Teacher!!

We have Wild Turkeys here in The Driftless Area.Ben(not Benzo)Franklin wanted the Wild Turkey to be the National bird,good thing He was voted down and the Bald Eagle was named instead. Turkeys are kinda cool but eagles got Em beat big time.

Goes like this; gobble gobble WOOOSH SCREEEEECH big ole THUMPIN roll and SQUEEZE OF TALONS,,then,,turkey dinner for the eagle!! “Heyyyy,Who put all these damn feathers on My dinner’!!”

Not bad choices Mr Volet,could be alot worse. I Ya snag into too much caffeine just counter it with a couple tryptophan sandwiches and return to snoozeville.We’ll miss ya but You’ll be back. :cry: :smile:

Wild turkeys are very aggressive, if you meet up with a flock they will chase you.
They haven’t been hunted for many years and lost their fear of humans.

love ya and thanks to all

Fitted with governors?! Fit Yer stickshift with S Palin and never need to leave the pit! With enough high-test fuel in the tank the other drivers might as well be stalled! Matter of fact,they *better* be stalled,Ya don’t want anybody bringin up the rear!!

i still don’t know what degree to take :???:

Naaaa,they are hunted in areas where they made a good comeback after stocking back in the 70s-80s. I remember when it was illegal to hunt them and even a sighting was rare.

Take the one that makes the most money down the road with the least expense now,,vocation doesn’t matter cause You’ll be miserable after 30-50 years of the same-old-same-old anyway.

Just kiddin,do what will make ya happy.

Ah Ha!

Celebrated 1/2 hour overtime today (less then usual). Tonight celebrate national sport, except it’s the old guy, none skating version, floor hockey. After that I’ll celebrate some food and a hot shower, folowed by some celebration on the sealy postrupedic.

3rd degree burns
3rd degree black belt
Nth degree

So Marina who copied who in this style of sitting on the floor in a sports bra & shorts with the submissive camera angle?

Did Tania (AtheneWins) copy you or was it vice versa :???:

How did this concept of cinematography come about?

The new peace mandala Gravatar is up.
Che will use this until he finds a Christmas Gravatar.

If you knock back a bottle of Wild Turkey you should have enough “courage” to deal with them. I suggest a hockey stick and a large doggie cage. Just stick handle them into the cage and you are good to go! While catching your breath from all the action… toss some fire crackers into the cage… just to show them who’s the boss! :shock: :lol:

Baileytehkid—good request, they say high foreheads, have high IQ’s and common intelligence—then the degree of hardness achieved by tempering, steps into the intellectual elite of society and the circle uses an excessive number of words to arti-culate an idea.

Hi Marina,
I agree.
you are hot for words.
My Russian friend is having trouble understanding so many different meanings of one word.

Speaking of Christmas Che has a yule time word request
even though he feels this may go the way his T-Day request went, (ignored)
{ Che folds arms across chest & gives Marina a dirty look }

Word request – yule / yuletide & Xmas yes with the ‘X’

A slightly incorrect historical note by our teacher. Babylon took its numbering system and mathematics from Sumer, a civilization with a base 60 numbering system (Sexagesimal system, in which the base is divisible by 1 through 6). This system was based upon astronomical observations… a sky of 6 sectors of 60 degrees each… not their calendar. This was due to the problem of rectifying the solar calendar with the lunar. The solar calendar held 12 months of 30 days each for 360 days, but the lunar calendar had 13 months of 28 days, resulting in 364 days. Sumerian mathematics and geometry, as well as divisions of time are still used today… every circle is a 360 degree arc… each degree of arc is divided into 60 minutes… and each minute is divided into 60 seconds.

Our Canadian Thanksgiving happens in October… probably because we get real hungry up here and can’t wait that long! :lol:

Dear Marina,

Another excellent video.

Homework:

Degrees? Well, the 360 day per year belief was known to me quite a while ago, but I had no idea where the word really came from. Based on your video, one can also easily deduce where the word degrade comes from too. It’s amazing how much and how well you can explain so many things in such a short while.

The beauty of serendipity. It’s like looking for a needle in a giant haystack and ending up finding the farmer’s beautiful daughter one marries for lifelong happiness.

Like you, I also have 2 degrees. :smile:

Bachelor of Science and Engineering.

Yum Food Brands has come up with a super easy way to eat food. Takes less work and is convenient while driving and so on…

Gobble-Gobble-Gobble! :lol:

Do you put Maple Syrup on your turkey :razz:

Those feedbags are ideal for glue sniffers :mrgreen:

Marina looks scholarly wearing her mitre board :mrgreen:
Did Marina do a thesis for her second degree?
Homework: I only have the one degree and got
into computer related stuff, so I am short of
another degree by 3 credits and a thesis.
I found one degree was enough, along with my
other aquired skills. School only gets you so
far in the private sector, but experience gets
you farther. I understand theory and it’s all
well and fine, but application (what you can do)
is all that matters to employers (unless you
have nepotism working for you. :neutral:
.
I am so stuffed! The turkey came out primo!
Pumpkin pie with walnuts – awesome…
Pleasant conversation around the table,
nostalgic family stories – good time for all.
How was your Thanksgiving? :grin:

excellent ratio of turkey to people
in geek speak, 0.334 parts turkey per person :grin:

Hi Marina,I would like to know how bikini,a two-piece bathing suit,got its name from Bikini atoll in the Marshall islands,where atomic bombs were tested.Please investigate!

Hey,thats a good question,I would like to know too!!!!!!!!!!

Absolutely wonderful, ChaCha – dinner with family at Grandma’s house, getting settled into my new house, just got off the phone with Mom and Dad. I have it all, friend. I have been richly blessed and installed in my home many reminders of this that I may continue to give thanks for so many blessings throughout the year. I have it all. Even some pretty cool friends to share my gratitude with here at HFW, present company certainly included, friend. :grin:

Yeah,is a one piece a kini?????????

The word Christmas.

Is Chrst of Chirstmas sectular or non-sectular.
e.g. Christ as in Christian or Christ as in Chris Cringle
Or the German vinacular.

In other worlds what is the origin of the world chistmas or Xmas?

Thanks Wylie K

I did a dumb thing… I got hit by a car and used the money to go to Harvard University. Dropped out, drank beer, played chess, scratched my head and wondered to what degree had I miscalculated the true inner me? Often times, holding degrees in high value can seduce people into meaningless pursuits and drudgery… having “wooshed” they had followed a more personal dream.

Homework: Associate’s degree Paramedicine. But that’s only the documented part of my knowledge base. I love to learn, and agree with Plutarch when he said, “The human mind is not a vessel to be filled, but, rather, a fire to be lighted.”

Ciao,
Fianchetto

Nope… we use ketchup… just like you guys do! :razz:

my temperature just went up a degree or two after watching this video :wink:

I estimate that I had approximately .15-.20 parts turkey myself, but we had 5 people, leaving about .55 parts turkey remaining for the casserole tomorow :-) OH – I forgot to include the leftover .40 stuffing, .35 gravy, .25 sweet potatoes, not to mention the uncalculated (but not so improportionate from the others) remainder of pumpkin pie and cranberry sauce. :wink:

And speaking of bi,how can I get paid bi-monthly but get my checks bi-weekly.I’m confused.My landscaper said he would plant flowers bi-annually,two times a year I thought,but I didn’t see the a** hole for two years.HUH!!!!!!!!!

Please accept my apologies for only two decimal places in my tryptophan-impaired calculations… :oops:

a slide rule is the way to go for three places to the right of the decimal :grin:

Out in Newfoundland… (the eastern-most? province) they do a lot of “huffing” because they are seeking something fun to do. They spray glue, Lysol, gasoline or whatever is available into a bag to see where it will take them. It is understandable how bored some can get and how easily influenced young people can be… just sad how twisted and damaging it is. Makes smokin’ grass look sane.

No degree of the academic unless theres one given in Squirrelly

How’s your journey, Homer?

next time you see this Plutarch guy ask him, “if it’s already a fire why would you have to light it”

{ must be some kind of control burn } :???:

So does a Paramedic jump out of airplanes? :mrgreen:

It’s an Odyssey

do you read M’s YT mail?

that behavior has to damage some brain cells

No – a (life-loving) paramedic waits on the ground for those who do jump out of airplanes… :grin:

Thufferin’ Thuccotash!
:mrgreen:

100 gradians = 90 degrees, 400 gradians making the whole circle, friend :wink:

Some were interviewed on TV and Yup!… they were at a point of no return… really sad.

Food for thought

I think I saw that Plutarch guy sitting at a park bench next to Keith Moon last year. They were mumbling something like… “life is way too important to take seriously”. Then Keith got up and started hooting… Who Who… Who are you! to the birds. It was a weird flashbackish kinda thingy! :mrgreen:

Hi Minions
What the f#ck ..all ya’ll. Just came by to see if anyone is still coming here.
Some? ….Hi. Does Marina come by much?
Well….. bye guys. gobble gobble :shock:

Might be HERE instead…

I believe the Babylonians were doing arithmetic base 60 which divides 360. And didn’t they know the number of days a year more accurately than 360?

I can’t believe you asked that. Have you seen a bikini? BOOM!

BTW, it wasn’t atomic bombs, it was hydrogen bombs.

Impressive, Dez – I get most of my education from the U of HK (University of Hard Knocks), and will always respect someone who works smarter rather than harder for his education, though both methods have their advantages. :grin:

Hey! #1 looks good on ya!
Congratulations :mrgreen:

Your right,I dont want to “hear” Marina do a lesson on bikinis either.**SIGH**
I am pretty sure they exploded nuclear bombs on that atoll.

Could you mean mortar board? I never heard of a mitre board. I’d like to see her on a motor boat. {CK ties the anchor to Captain Jack’s ankle.} Marina, you wanna see Captain Jack do a trick?

I scan the public side, nothing private.
With over 137,126,093 subscribers,
(not counting her friends) that task

(did you recognize the “secret” greeting?) :cool:

Dezdkado mentions this WAAAYY down at the beginning of the section here…pretty kewl info! :wink: (hit your [End] key to get there in a hurry, mate) :grin:

Were they, perchance, eyeing little girls with bad intent?

The one I ate today had totally lost it’s fear of humans. :lol:

Guess the turkey is making me sleepy! :grin:
Being as a mitre is the Pope’s headgear..!
[gives CJ a scuba and a hacksaw] LOL!

I have a word request….and i don’t know if it will get a response…..

the word is “CUM” or “CUMMING”

“CUM” is male ejaculate ( semen ) and “CUMMING” is male ejaculation ( orgasm )

this word is slang of course…is it just an American slang or do other parts of the world use this word(s) to describe the act of orgasm?

Sorry for seeming like a pervert…but this is actually a serious request. Im sure you have recieved this request before, yet i didnt see it on your list.

Darwin seems to have hit upon something.

Somewhere in the world,
it is now this –> cold <– :smile:

BTW the first test of the H bomb was 1952,they were testing on Bikini in 1946.

Is a one piece a unikini?
[gird your loincloth]

This is why turkeys are dumb, if you got a shotgun and they walk right up to you it’s dinner time.

Marina, I like the “Blog” link above. Nice granular way to organize things. I love it when you talk tech (down below) and make your site the best of them all. Great stuff!!!

Are all girls in bikinis bombshells?

You mean you’re not just jerking us off?

I’m stuck between choosing to be a game artist and business man . I want money , but i love games too . Maybe business in the gaming industry

cum as in come ?

I’d always wanted to see real snow !!

[Bikini-clad bombshells?] A matter of opinion, tigtig. :mrgreen:

yes , do what you like and be happy :mrgreen:

fever ?

If it were atomic bombs instead , radiation suits would be called bikinis :mrgreen:

:shock: LMAO

Marina, I just saw the new Victorias Secret show is coming up. Do you suppose you could sneak in and mingle amonst them, so that we could see you walking down the runway? Be sure to carry Gorby on your arm!

Homework: I don’t have a college degree. After the first year of engineering, I was so bored with the schools curriculum, I decided to just take classed that I needed at the time. 2 1/2 years later I only did self study education. Books, videos, O.J.T.

I do have one piece of paper that says Im a Master. I hold a Masters license of motor and steam. It’s the best document I ever received. Had I known how much it was worth I should have skipped college and got my masters license. I later found out it’s worth $100k to $240k a year. Much more than I would ever make at engineering. ;-)
That said I would like to return to college and study physics. That was my reasoning to go to college in the first place but was side tracked. :neutral:

response to a neat post, mate :wink:

@Hef

Superficial bastard!

:mrgreen:

Well then I’m in good company- same here.
Just a bit of college part time when I had
extra time after work.
Do you know what PhD. stands for?
Piled higher Deeper, sometimes it’s just a bunch of B.S.

Great lesson Marina! Im going to forward your lesson to some USCG instructors. :mrgreen:

I heard it was some of the other girls complaining.Something about the water level in the pool.If they didn’t get out first they couldn’t get out at all. :twisted:

[Sorta like this?]

Not the only one.
Just finished dinner with friends.
Family is all over this country and in different time zones.

YouTube now has wide screen?!?!? Now I have a reason to turn on the 16:9 format on my camera. :grin:

Exactly like that, lol

Thanks buddy. I was getting a bit lonely. :wink: I haven’t talked to a sole all day today. I’ve never seen the streets of Seattle empty.

Hey Captain Jack,
I kinda know what you mean.
I have a Class A drivers license and pay starts at 65K up to 90K (good enough for me) and that’s not owning my own rig. Owner operators make more than that. But, I just recently opted out since to make that you pretty much live the lifestyle and I don’t like it. I make less but I like free time for hobbies and being home every night with weekends off.

Damn that’s what I forgot to do. Make dinner! Been snacking all day. Well back to work… :roll:

It’s 1:18am EST and I’m off to catch some
ZZZ’s. Read through your comments and
I think you have the aptitude for the physics.
There’s some math involved, but you can do
it if you find time to go through a school.
I am self-taught on AutoCAD. When I found
time to take the courses, I ended up helping
(as a self appointed TA – LOL) my classmates
during the labs. I was asked if I wanted a job
teaching and turned it down since I was in
the butter zone already with the engineering.
Taking classes let me to pick the teacher’s
brain for every trick not in the books, so it
was worth the effort. I used to dream about
it, I was so immersed. Now, it’s second nature
2D, 3D, rendered animations, etc. All the nuts
and bolts to create, well just about anything :mrgreen:
For example: I can make floorplans, or take a
set from an architect, make it 3D; render it
with texture maps; set cameras and lights;
and script out camera paths for virtual
walk throughs – on the fly. I also taught myself
DAPPER and CAPTOR, two programs used
for electrical system selectivty. It is only
taught in Santa Barbara twice a year and
the classes are mucho dinero. College is
really where you learn to be your own
teacher through eduction and deduction :cool:
I am a big fan of higher education.
High school will only get you work at a
burger joint, these days – if you can read!
Yawn – tuckered out, long day…. :smile:
See you guys in a few hours -G’nite!

… and Ed said, How cold is it?

Yeah, same kind of thing with skippering. You have to live out at sea. Which is not to bad. The money is good. Also its hard to spend money at sea so it feels like more when you get back home. I like teaching for I get to live on my yacht. Speaking of my motor boat I’ve had to sell my boat back to the owner and move back into my old sailboat. :sad: The economy took a dump on my business and I have to cut way back. :cry: No worried because it wasn’t the dream yacht I had plan to buy for my circumnavigation. :smile: The motor yacht was just a stepping stone. Im going to miss the bigger boat. :cry:

Ain’t she such a geek! hehehe :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

(I wasn’t here at all.)

Hello Marina Do i have a degree no i don’t. That is a bad thing. I wish i did. But why is intelligence measured buy something that is on a piece of paper. What is better Marina knowledge or WISDOM HAPPY THANKSGIVING MARINA :?: :lol:

The bikini came about in 1946.The first H bomb test on Bikini was 1954.The first H bomb test ever,in 1952 was on Enewetak atoll,also in the Marshall Islands.I think HOTFORWORDS Marina should investigate!

IT Sounds like everything is alright with your computer service :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: now

Not really. I have improved the signal and the videos are downloading a bit faster. Still takes about 5 mins. to download. Im moving back to Kirkland again so I’ll have a new internet provider. Hope to get some faster speeds. :smile:

nice thinking cap….is that a mortarboard? :lol:

Yeah I think I do. I used to visit the physics lab to barrow lasers and other cool toys. The professor would tell me to stop answering the question or take the class. He really wanted me as a student.
I learned autocad too. Fun program. Now I build things in ‘Second Life’. Now there is classes you can take in the world of ‘SL’ to learn architecture. I plan to hold the worlds first USCG approved school in ‘SL’.
Have a good night…;-)

Try L-Arginine and Taurine instead.
Same location, different occupation. :wink:

:mrgreen:

:idea: I would like to open what I call the Marinakini poll.
Which is toohotforwords on Marina :?:

bikini or unikini :?:

Tough choice but I vote unikini :grin:

I hope I get extra credit for enthusiasm :wink: :wink:

Three degrees below Zero. :smile:

i’d like to know where the word “douchebag” comes from…

:?: Dearest Professor Marina,
As a long time student of yours, I just want to thank you for HFW (HAVING FOUND WISDOM). I just can’t get enough of your wonderful insightfulness. Your lessons are mesmerizing. Which brings me to my word in question; “YUMMY”. I have faith in your intelligence. Looking forward to a private tutoring lesson. Joelie :lol:

yeah , me too

yes i agree with that . But now even the people who have degrees can’t even get a job

Marina see Wisdom never needed a degree :?: :?:

Never really understood the need for the “wide-screen” format, until now, that is. We get to see more of Marina! Yippee!

i ment both meanings of the word. in german language we have a similar word called “waschlappen” for a weak or very sensitive word. “waschlappen” originally means washrag – which is something you use, when you shower. to shower in german language means duschen – which is similar to the word “douche”… i was wondering if there may be a connection.

i’m sorry, i guess i was a little bit confused. of course i ment “for a weak or very sensitive person”, not word.

Très joli exposé mademoiselle. For some funky reason, “degree” makes me think of Ivan Pavlov and his famous work on psychic secretion. What’s even funkier though is to replace Pavlov and his dogs by a wild bunch of monkeys, a cage and a big huge hanging banana. Funky.. Where does that come from?

After listening to Christina singing “Genie in a Bottle” and then the Spanish version “Genio Atrapado”, I have been struck by the fact that “to come” is translated in the romance languages as “venir”, which brings to mind the word “venereal” – co-incidence?

Enchiladas verdes con turkey (forgot what turkey is en Espanol… and I can’t find the tilde symbol either)

Thanks Chacha… now working toward “Pet” status :mrgreen:

The word for turkey as in the meat is ‘pavo’
but there is another word to refer to the animal
wasn’t in any book someone told me this in MX it’s a difficult word to remember.

The Spanish says, turquía but that Spain Spanish

“Chance favors the prepared.”

About luck. I don’t have very much good luck. I have found if I bet on something I always loose. I have found if I bet against myself (prepare for if I lose) I usually win. This seams very strange to me. The best case should be somewhere 60-40. But it’s not. It’s more like 20-80. I believe luck can be influenced. In fact precisely monitored and controlled. I see patterns in luck. Much like how waves affect a boat. I see lucky things happen vs unlucky. Up and down. When another boat passes by that patters is changed from its wake that it makes. But you can see that patter take over for a short while then return to the normal pattern. I wish I had a super computer that could measure this theory I have. I think luck can be predicted and influenced.

Ok that was good, but where did the term radian come from! :neutral:

Thanks for responding, Marina. My main point was that Babylon did not develop the 360 degree concept for the circle. Babylon took its numbering system, mathematics, geometry, calendar, etc. from the earlier Sumerian civilization.

Sumer (Biblical name is known as “Shinar”) was quite old by the time Babylon was founded, predating it by nearly 3 millennia. By the time of Babylon’s rise (approx 24th century B.C.E.), Sumeria had changed through several different periods of development and occupation (Ubiad, Nasr, etc.) and were in what is known as the Akkad period (most important ruler of this time was Sargon).

Babylon grew to great prominence and absorbed its neighboring city-states, taking control of what was Sumeria. Babylon borrowed its science, technology, and other advances from the earlier Sumerians, along with: irrigation, year-long agriculture, land ownership, money, writing, record-keeping, contracts, taxation, lunisolar calendar, etc. Babylon even borrowed the Sumerians gods (patrons of their city-states). By the time of the great Babylonian law-giver, Hammurabi (18th century BCE), Babylon had reached its zenith of development and began to be absorbed, in turn, by Assyria.

It is due to the great length of time of the continuous occupation of this region that there is much confusion over who ruled what and when. There was even a Neo-Babylon (Chaldea) that later conquered Assyria, and was conquered in turn by the Medo-Persian empire… then Alexander the Great… and on and on. This is why many refer to the ancient peoples of the region with an all encompassing generic name of The Mesopotamians. Meso “middle” or “between” + potamia “rivers” [Tigris and Euphrates] = the land (and the peoples) between the rivers. In Arabic it is Al Jazeerah (the island).

Dezdkado, but couldn’t the base 60 numbering system have been picked due to the observations of the sun (and the moon?) over the course of a year?

Yes, and no… and here’s why (a greatly abbreviated version). Sumerian science did not develop until after they had mastered agriculture. Before they developed irrigation, Sumerians had a problem. With little rainfall to mark the seasons, and without the benefit of Egypt’s annual Nile floods, Sumerians needed to know when to plant. For this they needed to know the pattern of the year. They (Sumerians and the later Babylonians) knew the year was longer than the arbitrary 360 day period of 12 months. This was known by observing the position of the sun at mid-day (and the figure-eight pattern it formed throughout the year [analemma]) and counting the days until it returned to the starting position. This is a process mastered by many early civilizations and witnessed by (usually megalithic) calendar sites around the world.

To address the problem of the longer year, they developed a lunisolar calendar (combining both lunar and solar calendars) that periodically added a 13th month to account for lost days and correct the seasonal track. This calendar is still used today (the Hebrew calendar). If they had not adjusted the calendar to reflect what they observed astronomically, then every 36.5 years our seasons would be reversed and only returning to “normal” every 73 years. It is likely that through astronomic observation, the Sumerians settled on the arbitrary number of 360, knowing that it did not fully represent what they observed. It was a mathematically convenient number.

There… another mystery solved by your trusty HotForHistory (a subsidiary of HotForWords).

(it doesn’t work for videos on this site)

:shock: :cool:

LOL… when I watched the video, just as Marina said “Abracadabra”, an ad popped up that asked “Pregnant and Confused?” Magic pregnancy… sounds like something from my theology classes.

Thanks very much, Warren. I guess I can’t be all bad if folks here can tolerate my goofiness. :twisted: I also hang out here for the people… of which I notice a few of my favorites have been absent. :sad: Thankfully, you remain.

Gilgamesh is a correct answer… legendary king of the city-state of Uruk (from which it is believed we get the name Iraq)… part man and part god. He is proof that the Sumerians were bad at math (and husbandry), for he is described as 2/3 god and 1/3 man… I guess his mother (a goddess) must have been a WHOLE lotta woman! :mrgreen:

What did you do I can’t get it to work and my cam won’t do 640×360

hey can you please tell me origin of happy slip ( like the yt channel) (http://www.youtube.com/happyslip) please send me a pm at this channel (http://www.youtube.com/sasori1235) if you decide to do it thank you very much

{ *SIGH* }

you have a subscription to Happy Slip it you would have gone to her YT profile page you would have found this:

FAQ:
What is a happy slip?
-While growing up, my mom was always quick to remind me to wear a half slip with my dresses or skirts. She would say “Be sure to wear your hap eslip!!”. So I grew up thinking the term was always “happy slip”, until I was corrected by classmates who asked me if I had a sad slip as well.

No, he’s prepared to. :roll:

Oh, I lately started to get the false impression that the measurement of degrees on a protracter was broken down by the 10 main angles. As a way to best decide the angles from horizontal to vertical. Such as 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, and 90 degrees. And that times 4 for a full revolution. :idea: :oops:

I sound like some kind of math nerd.

Hey Leonard! Did you notice you can set

Is there one? :mrgreen: heh heh

I remember watching a PBS documentary about Mayan numbers, and they said it was more easier and accurate that the Babylonian number system.

Remember Marina’s “100 million served” video?
She earned a star from me

When I was stationed at Fort Knox, KY, I remember my First Sergeant telling me that this duty station was a cakewalk.

“So, you’ve met Mr Pareto….” Yeah Im getting to know him very well. Im also looking at Fractals, Power Law, and the famous bell curve and I’m discovering some interesting things that might produce a theory to explain how luck works.

With Christmas coming, i figured if she got
more stars, from different galaxies, we could
give Hot For Words the “Constelation Marina”.
She has one one star named for her.
If more do this, it could be a gift of light in the
dark philological universe thingee…
Her first star is in LIbra – which is for balance. :mrgreen:

a trampoline would make a nice present for us :mrgreen:

{ today’s lesson, the origin of the word ‘gravity’
let me demonstrate }

So I had a couple things randomly pop into my head the other day, and I was wondering if Hot For Words could answer at least one of them…
1. What does the Q in Q-Tip stand for? It’s not cotton, since that starts with a C…
2. How did a bow as in ribbon, and a bow as in bow and arrow, get the same name?
3. And in honor of Thanksgiving day, how did turkey get its’ name? In my other language, Malay, turkey is called Ayam Belanda, which literally translated means Dutch Chicken. Any similarities to turkey’s origin?
Thanks Marina!! I rant and rave about your site all the time! :mrgreen:

http://www.hotforwords.com/2008/08/23/100-million-video-views/…. :?: where says served

Wiki had this to say:
Etymology

The word “Q-tip” means “Quality tip”, with “tip” referring to the cotton tips at the end of the stick.

They are sometimes referred to by the British, Indians and South Africans as “ear buds” and are also known as ear-diggers, cotton-wool buds or ear-sticks

Fractals, power law, etc. good stuff.
Do you know what luck stands for?

I would watch, and listen to hear you speack Russian, in hopes of learning your language.

where does the phrase “read my lips” come from???

I am majoring in Computer Information Systems. Marina I also have a word I was wondering about.

Mark as how did it come to mean someone you are trying to fool into buying something. I know it has origins in carnivals as in carnival games, but does it go back further?

after a reasonably good spliff… these uncommon combos are all the more laughable :lol:

I have discovered in the maritime world there is like 3 degrees of separation in many cases. Must be a small world.

The name of the 1959 Alfred Hitchcock movie, North by Northwest, there is no such direction. However, old-timers allow three letter directions to have a ‘by’ inserted between the first and second letter. Hence, NNW becomes North by Northwest, per Hitchcock’s title.

That was a very nice thing you did for Marina naming a star for her. That was better than getting one of those Hollywood stars on a sidewalk of fame. :mrgreen:

But all she would get on the Blvd
would be one star! If students all
get one, each bestowing their own

their own way, Constelation Marina
could be the could be the biggest

Let’s see what Wikipedia can dig up…

Turns out that as with many words with different meaning featured on HotForWords, the various definitions of “Mark” all come from different roots, but over time their spellings have converged.

Mark (given name) is shot for “Marcus”, derived from the Latin Mart-kos, “consecrated to Mars” (the god of war)

Mark (currency) is derived from various 9th Century Latin words (e.g. marca / marcha / marcus), themselves derived from other languages. It was originally a unit of weight, then got applied to currencies.

Marches (borderland) is derived from Marko, derived from Mereg. As well as the Welsh Marches, this definition is also preserved in Denmark (boundary of the Danes)

Unfortunately that’s where the trail runs cold – I cannot discover how the term got applied to levels of development (Mk. I, Mk. II etc), signs, targets etc., although Wiktionary suggests they’re all derived from the “boundary” sense of the word. I suppose that it might be something along the lines of putting objects on the boundary to help define it, so the term got applied to the objects used to define the boundary as well as the boundary itself.

Right now, I have a BS in history. I am working on getting my Master’s in history, secondary ed. I almost do not want to get my MA, because I think a BS degree is very appropriate for me. Even if I do get another degree, my initials will still be BS so I guess it’s all cool. :cool:

What is it? Does everybody at this site have a history degree? I feel like such a conformist. :cool:

4 total:
Associates, Bachelors, Masters, and Doctorate.

you forgot to explain about degree in:

1- degrees of separation (have you heard of that facebook application called 6 degrees of separation?)

2- degrees of freedom (for example any 3D object has 6 degrees of freedom, 3 rotational, and 3 translational)

I am so disappointed.

Watched this vid. the other day & first thing I thought was “she looks very uncomfortable”… WERE YOU??
You look good in the wide screen & found a way to use it all, but I squirmed the whole lesson & of course, had to view it more than once to get the points straight in me ‘ead. I know you’ve got some modeling experience… guess what, now I do too… is it allways an awkward & stilted proccess to get a good image?
Had the local newspaper’s photogtapher come to the shop to get a “snap” for the front page of the “B” section & he spent over an hour taking my picture in different poses & various angles, none of which were natural or comfortable. Turns out, it was all about the angle of reflection, of the light that was hitting the coin I was holding. Anyways, all was good, in the long run, it turned out to be free advertising. People are stiil coming up to me, calling me a celebrity ‘n all. Gives me chuckle.

[Quote] from the HOT for Words site—“Dancing is silent poetry.” –

Simonides 556-468bc…

He wrote odes to victors and dirges. Also, he wrote songs of praise to the gods. His poems were usually about war along with many thoughtful topics…

:lol:

degree and a free ride …agree and a sea bride

Simonides of Ceos (Ancient Greek: Σιμωνίδης ὁ Κεῖος) (c. 556 BC-468 BC), Greek lyric poet, was born at Ioulis on Kea. He was included, along with Sappho and Pindar, in the canonical list of nine lyric poets by the scholars of Hellenistic Alexandria. He was uncle to Bacchylides, another of the nine lyric poets. He is the narrator and main character of Mary Renault’s historical novel The Praise Singer. He is cited by Plato in The Republic.

Simonides of Ceos

…his poems on the war of liberation against Persia no doubt gave a powerful impulse to the national patriotism.

For his poems he could command almost any price: later writers, from Aristophanes onwards, accuse him of avarice, probably not without some reason – see for example Peace (play). To Hiero’s queen, who asked him whether it was better to be born rich or a genius, he replied “Rich, for genius is ever found at the gates of the rich.”
