Name for the dog: Boni

His breed (Bernese Mountain Dog) has a b-sound in it;

he appeared on the “bonus” lesson;

he is a big boni for the owner!

(Others, not I, might point out an additional reason: he showed his boni on the bonus show!)

–Hs4Mm

That dog is a “Bruno” if ever I saw one!

2nd round of names:
Flaps
Rosco
Bosco*
Mojo

*He looks like a Bosco

More info on Boni: The boy’s name Boni is a variant of Boniface (Latin), and the meaning of Boni is “fortunate, auspicious”.

Preceding is first of three paras at: http://www.thinkbabynames.com/meaning/1/Boni

He won’t be as quiet as Gorby, so ‘Gabby’ would be good, except words sound too much alike.

He looks like a [Rocky] since he’s a Mountain Dog. Or maybe [Bernie] short for Bernese. :smile:

Name the dog “Oscar Meyer!” :shock: :grin: :lol: :mrgreen:

or… “Hot-For-Gorby!” :roll: :shock:
or… “Gilligan!”

As for the bonus… for all the shenanigans these people have been up to, they should have to walk down a long dark alley on the tough side of town carrying it all in cash… if they make it through unscathed… “that’s their bonus!” :razz:

If it’s a girl’s dog, then I’d pick “Furby”
For a little More Macho name, I like “Grinder” Gotta end in an errr sound.
Chemikal, I think it was, had a good one… “Chewy”, short for “Chewbacka” … gorgeous little puppy

Gorby’s gonna get a complex.

OUCH on the burn.
(plan white vinager will make the sting go away, good luck sleeping)

Grindle wouldn’t be a bad name for the dog after a monster in on of Beowulf’s tales.

Looks like an “OREO” to me…

cute dog Marina :wink:
call him chuckles :lol:
:mrgreen: B.B. :cool:

Grinder is what they call a sub sandwich in some parts of the US.

Hmm, ” Behtovin ” Like The Movie, I Kinda Forget How To Spell It lol

“Choo Choo” for the pup.
We need to see his personality interaction with Gorby.

what happened to the edit button :?:
oh well :cool: dear teach looks like a painful :sad:
sunburn :evil: try aloe feel better :cool:
B.B.

Your comrade Olgakay mention the word MOOSHERS is this an appropriate name for a dog?
What is the translation?

From what I understand, and it usually isn’t much, the term “bonus” used by the media to describe the payments to the execs, was not based on performance (although they made it sound that way), but was more of a signing “bonus”. Probably similar to an ahtlete who signs to play for a pro. team. If his team absolutely sucks & doesn’t win a game all season, is it his fault? He still did his job & was no less talented. Should his contract be ripped up & his bonus be removed, or worse yet taxed @ 95% to pay the hot dog vendors? Just throwing that up against the wall to see what sticks??? need some good discussion around here anyways, glad u brought it up Marina.
Lookin’ a little flushed (burnt) BTW. Lost your Hawaii tan already… I keep harping at you to get outside more often, but wear your sunscreen tho.

Recipe is?

I tweeted at u… did u get it?

It’s just any type of sub sandwich like you get at Subway.
Mixed cold cuts, lettuce, tomato, pickle……

And a milkshake is called a Cabinet :cool:

:shock: :arrow: :cool:

Dear Marina,
Well, obviously you should name your dog “Seesix.” That’s because you dog has three colors, and when you see him with both eyes, you are seeing six colors! :smile:
I hope Seesix brings you much love, warmth, and happiness! They’re called the Bernese mountain dog because they originate from the City of Bern, in Switzerland. I think Seesix will be a wondeful companion! :razz:
Seesixcm6

Zeus is a nice name for a dog :)

Oh :oops: I thought it was like a particular sandwich.
I think I’ll make myself a chocolate cabinet this evening, sounds delish’… Must stop at the lumber store on my way home.

What are you building with the lumber?

That whole AIG thing sucks, but if I worked there I’d probably have taken the money to. Oh, and BTW…

Name the dog Kerou (CARE-Oh) after the famous author/poet Jack Kerouac.

Hey BillyB yea I got it just a few minutes ago. I haven’t checked my tweets in a few days. I will go and look at your Face Book and check out the photos. Thanks for the heads up. :wink:

:mrgreen: Awie! lol puppy!

:lol: I’m feeling hyper I need some Bonham:

Augie like Augie dogie :cool:

me to , dance with Jim…

I was wondering the same thing. The paging has disappeared also. I guess M has been tweaking the page for better performance. It seems to reload a little faster. I have to check my spelling now before I hit the old submit button now. Peace bro. :wink:

Puppy could be called “Vista”.
It is going to grow and grow and catch a virus or two. :smile:

:smile: Right on thegorn. I was rocking out earlier to your Hendrix selections over at the Campus Cafeteria in the HotForWords forums section:

http://www.hotforwords.com/forums/topic/campus-cafeteria/page/2

Pays to advertise :wink:

I suggest naming the dog Laika after the first dog in space.

your new puppy name him pepper or snopes like the dink.

I think I’ll go with SPARKY. Thats a cool name or TRIGGER.

Homework: Patches :mrgreen:
I wonder where you get your information re: AIG
and the RETENTION bonum/bonuses.
What the medie is reporting isn’t very accurate, so
here is an explanation in a way you will understand.
An executive working for AIG gets word he will be fired in a year; since the company insures banks who are defaulting.
($95 billion of the money sent to AIG went to those banks.)
AIG needs the executive for his skills in keeping the company afloat. The new president, Libby, comes to work for only a dollar a year salary (across the table). He reduces exec’s salaries as well, offering a RETENTION bonus to those who will stay with the company to try and save it. While AIG’s hands are not clean, only the executives who are producing results are offered the bonus (remembering they took a pay cut). The bonus payout date was always known to be in March by Obama’s government, and amendments were specifically written into the TARP bill protecting those people (and not robbing them of the reward for their hard work). The people who f*cked everything up for AIG were replaced by the new controlling owner’s (the US govt). They were gone and got no bonus; only those who could save the company and navigate the new owners through AIG business process remained and were offered bonuses to do so.
Are you with me, so far?
Obama, Franks, Dodd, etc. all knew what they signed (or they didn’t read it before they signed) and are obligated to pay the bonuses (which represents 1/10th of 1% of all monies paid to AIG for the bailouts of all the banks they insured). Then the govt. pretended not to know of the bonuses at the time they came due, as a distraction is needed, since their poll numbers are down, and none of the pork barrel spending is stimulating the economy.
The government acted as agents of hate in a cruel plan to deprive the bonus recipients of their legitimate right to collect. Their plan is to foment rage at these exec’s (to focus anger the people at government’s lavish spending decisions).
The news media reports nothing of the numerous “tea parties” being held where thousands attend, yet they fawn all over the 40 people who toured the AIG exec’s neighborhoods this weekend. The media is obviously [in the bag] for the government.
So, what will happen next month (April) when the bonuses come due for executives tricked into remaining at work for Fanny May? Those bonuses were covered in the TARP under the same exclusion as AIG.
The real conundrum is this:
In the future, executives who would ordinarily stay, provided a bonus was offered, will not. This means companies will fail, sending the economy plummeting as would have happened if AIG was allowed to fail. If you think it’s bad now, consider this:
If AIG had failed, the economy would be all the worse by AN ORDER OF MAGNITUDE of difference.
.
I guess if Marina is only going to do “news words” now,
then other word requests are [out the door], same as the report cards which never came out?
.
News Word Request: [wind down]

I don’t see how that pup can have any other name than “Lucky”.

It was in there contacts so blame washington, they should have went bankrupt. :lol:

If you got Gorby, the other dog can be Yeltsy (after Boris Yeltsin) :mrgreen:

Or Beemer ( if someone is a BMW fan )

Classic example of the pot calling the kettle black!
accusations, blame shifting, passing the buck- wtf! :mad:

http://www.sketchyconcepts.com/Pot%20and%20Kettle%20web.gif

You’re lucky in America that you have executives like this.. best interests at heart..in Australia, there are some that get enormous bonuses for essentially destroying their business and leaving the mess for others to pick up :evil: …well you probably have those too :???:

Hi Marina,

Thanks so much for the picture and personal inscription :cool:

And, a name for your new fluffly friend :?: I think “Bonum” works; and, it’ll be a perpetual reminder of his intro to all of us, your devoted, students and lust struck fans :!:

We WERE lucky! With the illegal tax laws being passed by a Democrat government, the Constitution is quickly being outlawed. As a result, we will likely not be so lucky anymore. What we’re getting is a setup for tyranny from Obama. Some “change”…

Marina,
I propose Smelaya meaning brave, bold or courageous in Russian. It is also the name of one of the early dogonaouts. Smelaya was launched into space on August 19, 1951 and was safely recovered. :mrgreen:

Very interesting…
I post a comment, and get logged out, now…
I respond to a comment reply; after I log in,
it posts and then logs me out??? WTF???

I think Diesel or Choco are good names. I really like that dog your friend is so lucky to have him those dogs are just what a mountain rescue person needs. If you need a trainer let me know my dog was poisoned by an FBI agent in Elko NV a few years ago. A picture of my dog is on my U-Tube channel right now if any body knows any things please e-mail.

Come on Doug spell out the Fuck-en swear words!! :lol:

Great post Me Lika Do The Cha Cha,
I think that the Government changing the deal of a contract after it has been signed is a bad precedent.

The Fanny Mae bonus will not be a news story, or not made into a big one. After all, Barney Frank is in bed with the execs at Fanny Mae, literally.

As for the Dog’s name, how about Latka?

Barney Franks? You mean… Elmer Fudd! :mrgreen:
When his boyfriends spend the night, and park illegally at his DC apartment, Barney “fixes” their tickets. Some lawmaker, hmmm?

I don’t agree with the mechanics of the bailout itself, much less the retention bonuses. Firstly, I think that any company getting bailed out should have it’s corporate heads not only fired, but investigated for any criminal liability.

Secondly, any company deemed “too big to fail” and getting bailed out should be broken up and restructured under anti-trust guidelines so that any failure in the future won’t cause a chain of damage.

Thirdly, I think that the deregulation from the last 20 years under both Democrats and Republicans needs to be reversed. When you remove rules that apply brakes to greed and stupidity, you shouldn’t be surprised when greed and stupidity follow.

Lastly… Marina, I think “Ares” would be a good name for the pooch. He’s going to be a stout boy, and that white marking on his forhead looks like a spear tip.

A lot of funny things are going in America. And they have been for sometime Good mornig America would you like a cup of tea

s’alright :mrgreen:

I agree with this. And I will add one more thing..

If the ones in charge of the company (oh hey.. that’s the government) wants to break that contract of awarding those bonuses, they can legally do it. It’s called bankruptcy (ch11). Wait… isn’t that what they wanted to avoid because they were “too big to fail”? I guess that’s what we get where bonuses aren’t bonuses.. they’re conditional pay based on one or more milestones… and benefits aren’t benefits anymore, they’re seen as rights.

Homework: dog’s name: Bellatrix

Name the puppy, Bonus.

Marina, I request a lesson on this twin pak of plump words, [mumbo jumbo]. Thank you very much.

haha.. he sounds like the damn pelican on The Little Mermaid (voiced by Buddy Hacket?)

I’m just waiting to hear him say “This dinglehoppers broken!”

How old is He Marina :?:

:mrgreen: samson

Name for the pup: Him.
That way he will come when you call [him].

Marina, your burn would fit right in down here in my neck of the woods.
Great idea for a word category. Loved the vid and the pup. He’s going to be a big ‘un.

HW: REX

I forgot about

[call]

I was wondering the origin of the word [Kitchen].

Homework:

AIG execs: Give them each 20 years for grand larceny.

Dog: Call him “Bono.”

Hey leonard It’s all-ways something.I Hope you get it fixed soon. God bless you good night :smile:

[shenanigans]

how about bruiser or bam-bam sense he will grow up to be big and strong.

Marina, for US, I would give you a BONE.

Here is a good name for a dog: Canus (pronounced like канус.)

here’s a nice nice and simple suggestion for the name of your new pup; Timber…What do you think? :idea:

Mika comes to mind for the name of that dog. :cool:

Not to sound mean, but it almost looks like it is spelled “smell ya”. :mrgreen:

I spent the time to watch the presentation :mrgreen:
It has an appearance of propriety in many respects.
Facts presented with regards to the Federal Reserve
system’s establishment in 1913, and the IRS tax “laws”
are handled very well, and are sustained historically.
The piece begins to fall apart after that….
I found one blatant fallacy in the evidence presented
regarding electronic voting in Ohio. No consideration
is given for absentee and at home balloting. Only an
exit poll tally vs the total of ballots cast on the day of
the election are supplied as evidence. No credulity is
possible for the exit poll tally. It is not sustained in
that it is highly unlikely that all voters participated,
and it is likely that assumptions were made by those
pollsters, who had no data on absentee ballots.
Where there is one fallacy of such blatant nature,
there are likely more fallacies of an embedded and
subtle nature. For the most part, arguements and
positions were well stated. There was much left to
show a biased agenda, attempting to leave you in
fear that you must act, when in fact – there are no
actionable items for a private citizen to make.
All in all, a relevant piece – but take it for what it
is – an opinion piece. Having found one blatant
fallacy after one viewing, I take it with a grain of
salt in that the points did not need to be embellished
with so much propriety, instead of merely letting
the truth stand alone. The target at one point was
George W. Bush, yet all of the pertinent data could
easily be conferred upon Barrack Obama, as well.
Thanks for putting this up, Daniel. I would encourage
others to check it out and offer their insights :grin:

Because of Olgakay, I’m hooked on playing Pet Society on Facebook. What was her Pet’s name again? MUSHKA?!

He looks like a big strong puppy. I think I would name him Diesel or Bear.
AIG, really I don’t agree with the bail out. The bonuses? Who was they given too. Did they diserve it. The recipiants could have been the only people in the company that made a lot of money for the company, in that case I don’t see a problem. Fire the one who lost money for the company. If these people didn’t make at least 94% more then there bonous then the bonous was too much. Do people complain when congress votes themselfs a 25% pay raise twice for running out country in the hole. That is way more then the Millions AIG gave out. Records shows congress knew about this problem 4 years ago and they looked the other way. Now we are paying the price because we said it was okay that congress did that. Also the people got the me attitude and more for less. Give me more for less work. US needs a values check. Go back to the old values of a days hard work for a days pay. Most people forgot that value.

What about the Congress and the President? :mrgreen:
They signed the bill into law approving the bonuses.
I think if you read my comment (#30), you will
better understand that there was no act of larceny
committed by the exec’s, only by the Government in
writing an uncontitutional tax law. If the law passes,
there will be a MAJOR lawsuit against the Government
for this illegal act. Taxpayers will then foot the bill for
copius amounts of money above and beyond the bonuses
themselves. The legal fees alone will be on a par with, or
above the cost of the bonuses, not to mention the costs
for punitive damages awards…

It is not easy to come up with a Swiss name for a dog, if you go by the breed’s origin. I think Scandinavian names are close enough. If Mika doesn’t work, I guess Lukas can be one possibility.

In English … true. :mrgreen: Marina and the word are Russian.

I’d name the dog PATCHES since he has little patches of color all over him. Yep, that’s what I’d do. I named my dog after the color of the sand in the desert where I found her: http://www.laserradio.com/sandy1.html

I know a possible name for a dog. How about Elvis?

How about Deohge

I like “Bonum” for a name. :wink:

Why don’t you suggest the name Bonus. It fits the circumstance! Or maybe Tesla.

What about the origin of the word [cartoon]?

How’s this for an idea? Company executives should be paid with shares in the company which they have to sell at the market rate when they leave the job.
That way, if they do a good job, they profit – if they do a bad job, they suffer.
Trouble is, how many people would take the job on those terms?

Dogs name: Toblerone – Toby for short.
(Or maybe Mountainman – Mountie for short – May The Force be with him)

A cabinet, Dummie. :lol:

Is Dogonaut the correct word? Surely that would be a creature that travels in a dog, like worms.
How about Astrodog? Then you’d need to buy some astroturf for him to pee on. :roll:

Einstein, Bear, Big Bear, Toby, Kobi, King, Hugo, Hulk, Baxter, Buster

Marina, that was a wonderful lesson and I had no idea about the origin of the word bonus. Loved the crazy ending.

Here are some possibles names for your friend’s dog:
Aladdin, Ambrose, Benedict, Gizmo, Oxford, Tolstoy

Kindle – (insert Beavis grunt here) When the dog is not on the leash he is wireless :lol: Don’t stray too far from home today. :cool:

The “small” puppy will grow very big, so call him Tiny.

Oh Marina… I’ve suggesting something on the youtube thing (I have a different user name there).
I suggested ‘Rufus’ as I think MOST dogs look like a ‘Rufus’ to me. But I reckon you topped all the suggestions when you said, ‘Ooh-choo-choo’ to him: How about ‘Choo-choo’? :idea:

Just occured to me… where does the word [reckon] come from? Eh…another time, it can wait… let’s get this dog named first.

Tutti the puppy :idea:

After the lumber yard go to the Ice cream store

A cabinet is a milkshake made with ice cream, syrup & milk.

Such a “bonus?” to have such a cute puppy share the spot light with you. I have had a lot of dogs growing up (and 3 now), and one dog we adopted had a very unique name. Phonetically it was “de-oh-gee”, which is… spelled-out… D-O-G.
Cheers, Greg (that’s my name, not really a suggestion for the dog’s name, but I would be so honored :smile: )

Maybe you could name the puppy “Freedom”.

Teacher –
How about “Lex” for the dog’s name?? I believe “Lex” means “word”, doesn’t it?? As in “Lexicon”…

Thanx for a great lesson!
Hi Gorby!

Homework :cool:
:evil: Those AIG guys should give their bonuses back, or make them pay it back in taxes!

Puppy’s Name :cool:

Word Request
[Hedge Fund]

My best suggetion is “Luki” as in “You are one Luki Dog”.
It was the name of my favorite dog in my youth.
My brother named his dog “Nuki” because he (my brother)
was a Nuclear medicine tech. If Nuki did anything
bad, it he would say “No Nuke!” a favorite refrain of
environmentalists.

why is there red patches on her skin ?? :???:

call him “fatbuffalo” lol

Nissan thinks out of the Cube & names it’s latest product a Mobile Device

Great idea, Marina.

Yeah, I can’t say I empathize with the AIG execs under scrutiny for their reception of government-financed bonae; however, the government is clinically hypocritical here. Not only do they have written-in, automatic pay increases for themselves despite the status quo of their work being well below average and despite the recession, but they knew about the AIG deal because they’re the ones who crafted it, legislating the approval of said bonus money in the first place, then manufactured populist outrage over it to create a distraction.

What’s more outrageous is the fact that so much waste and fraudulence has been conducted under the facade of the ‘necessity’ to bailout all these entities — like giving $4Billion-with-a-B to ACORN for signing up fictitious voters, lol. But, yes, common sense dictates despite the larger outrages, that the smaller outrage of 20 AIG execs should be prevented even though the larger outrages still, so far, skate. But for the record, 15 of the 20 recepients of the bonus money have given it back.

Now, onto more pressing matters, I would recommend your friend name her dog Jasper (we can see that he’s a boy). However, I’m not so sure he looks like a Jasper. I have Jasper reserved for whenever I get a dog. When I picture what my Jasper will look like, he’ll either be a weimaraner or a german short-haired pointer — I can’t decide, but either way they are noble, sleek looking dogs, whereas the one in question is a bit of an ewok-looking gizmo. The other name I like for either of these dogs is Dapper, but I cannot use since I used it for my half-siamese cat, which suits that aristocat all too well. But, perhaps your friend will fancy one of these two names for her new pet, so, there you go.

Wait, I was unfamiliar with the breed, but according to websites, Bernese mountain dogs are large, strong, and friendly. Couple that with how hairy they are, and your friend could name her dog Samson, given that he was large, strong, good, and hairy — and as it was only when he cut his hair he lost his powers, your friend should never cut this dog’s hair, even when living in SoCal.

Thought I heard somewhere that you can play 8 seconds of copyrighted music without paying a fee or infringe upon the copyright.
Sometimes when you hear the Happy Birthday song over the air waves they cut it off after 8 seconds.

Anyone care to elaborate?

oh, and by the bye. . .

[dapper]

Sorry about this but I seem to have mislaid my Edit button and my ability to compose a comment with a completed-thought.

already done… there’s a 90% tax on it!

Justice has been served. The state is now richer, so you best be expecting new roads, or something of the sorts… right? :D

ah, sorry m8 — i didn’t mean to [bogart] your homework

Teacher, strike it from the record and only consider the first two of my three suggestions.

Puppy Name – Boris

AIG Bonus = Public Bone Us

“you are really comfortable in your own skin” is a new expression i just learned from the latest Lisa Nova’s video. and i dont understand what that means….

Another dog name suggestion: Nick Nack, or since you introduced him shortly after St.Patrick’s Day, how about Paddy.
Nick nack, Paddy Whack, give the dog a Bonus. :lol:

In economy, the only thing you can get locked up for fast, is doing fraud. And because they did not commit fraud, the state established a 90% tax rate for their “bonus”, in order to recover the money, and thus now they can be put away if they don’t pay the tax.
By the way, they did not commit larceny. :-)

Hey first post :D uhm so like where does the word [akward] come from… and why is it spelt so weird :P ?

Very Good++++

Hears An unuseable….Tingeling – TINGALIIN- RUSSIAN BASE-LOVERS REMIX MelodiFestivalen 2009

Since Marina means ‘sea maiden’ or ‘of the sea’, then name the puppy a … MARINO :!:

[Marino] Latin, likewise means “of the sea”.
Also, Marinus was the name of two saints: a third-century Roman martyr, and a legendary saint for whom the Italian republic of San Marino is named.

Other salty seadog names:
Moby (Moby Dick), Neptune, Triton (sea gods), Nemo, Kai (Hawaiian: “the sea), Ripple
Cute names:-
Tumbles, Scriffles, Scruffles, Snuffles, Truffles, Tribbles (Star Trek)

Marina unleashed!
Well… according to a website for RUSSIAN DOG NAMES, Marina is a popular dog’s name! :oops: :grin:

*Jeorney runs for deep cover >>>>>> :eek:

How about “Wonderdog”?

wfpot

Maybe the ‘-us’ was the [Proto-]addition. Similar to the way Patrii became “Father” (I know there’s no visible similarity, but Patrii came to mind when I thought about “Bonui”; and we all know that Russia (through [Proto-]languages) is the source of the choicest fruits of the blesséd word-garden.

Now, the name: he looks like he will be very-helpful in Digging-up the Roots of words for you to show us, so I’d suggest Doug-Dug or Root-Root (or something derived from those seeds).

That Would be like renaming Doctor HotForWords “Pretty Girl”—that is, yes, it would be true; but WonderDog is more like a ‘title’ and not so much a ‘name.’

He looks like he suits “Boris” to me.

Nick

it’s actually spelled [awkward], if that seems less weird to you

Marina. Great video I was wondering if you could tell us about the word [Velvet].
Also i think the dogs name should be (Twitter). Thank you.

Thats even weirder :P haha ok [awkward] whats the story? wheres it from!?

Update time:
Another executive at AIG, who was to receive a bonus (while only making $1 a year) has resigned today. AIG is on it’s way back down as a result. AIG may yet fall apart…
Then we will all know what sacrifice is, as Obama defines it.
I have been stockpiling gold and lead. If the bottom drops out, the lead will have more value than gold, because it will guarantee my survival. Gold may not have any value after the threshhold where food becomes unavailable. You can’t eat it!

1) Happy to see that more topical words are planned.
Serious comment and debate forums at ‘HotForWords’?? Could happen….

2) Friend: Please don’t forget to brush and to exercise the cute (double-coated) guy. Berners like that. And ‘Lucky’ is my name suggestion: He’s an American pet, so he (likely) already is….

What about Woutchoutchou? I have absolutely no idea about why that name stepped into my mind, but I find it kinda cute. :smile:

Here’s my guess about why the edit comments feature was disabled (people have wondered about this, but I have not spotted any one’s explanation) — because email notifications were being sent before when the reply was first created rather than after the edit window expired.

Just adding a little Canadian content (conforms to the CRTC)… Should we not pray for the rich to get richer? Otherwise, who will pay the bills (taxes)?

NEW DOG NAME….. :grin: MAX! :grin: short for MAXIMILLION!

That was a lot easier to follow Marina, and the bluescreen was there! But oh no! Paged comments! LOL… I’m thinking bruno even though I hate that name. It needs to have 2 syllables (dogs like it that way)

i like
Charlie

I can’t believe you sometimes Marina, this video has a PENIS in it!! Do you not realize how this is pornography. Well, youtube is going to come down on you like a ton of bricks now…. :lol:

One more thing, are you still doing video requests?

You’re a Boris :lol:

You cant eat gold either!

Definition of polite: courteous, nice, manners.

I understand, and you are correct, it is more a title. I intended it to be a takeoff on the character “Underdog”.

wfpot

I thought the paged comments were gone, too. Shows what I know. You miss a day, you miss a lot.

I wouldn’t worry about YouTube. The viewers over there have always wanted “porn” in Marina’s videos. Now, as you have so eloquently pointed out, they have it. (And a nice tan to boot) :smile:

Choo Choo seems to be fitting for a name (or would that be Chew Chew?)

“Gold may not have any value after the threshhold where food becomes unavailable. You can’t eat it!”
That’s what I said :mrgreen:

There you are, hugging the little rascal; and look where his paw is!

I think he should be named “Lucky” which is short for “Lucky Dog.”

hmm I have to think about this one a while.

It’s obviously named after the auk, a very auk-ward seabird sometimes known as the albatross or gooney bird. :mrgreen: :lol:

aladdin? — i don’t know. he looked different.
ambrose? — pierce? huh?
benedict? — the pope (mach et, ratze!)?
gizmo? — lol. gizmo was small with large ears and eyes.
oxford? — come on, man.
tolstoy? — he looks more like solzhenitsyn, doesn’t he? that’s kinda long, though. his first name was “aleksandr” which is too long, too.
so — only one possibility left: it’s gotta be “alex”. ;D

It’s called “sunburn,” an affliction suffered by [caucasian] (“white”) people, especially blondes, when we are exposed too long to direct sunlight. We lack keratin, the brown coloring in most humans, that protects against sunlight. This helped us to live in cloudy, forested climes, as it enabled us to absorb more sunlight needed to make vitamin D; but we don’t do as well in the open clear skies of the deserts and tropics. :oops:

Do people ever get sunburn in Malaysia (aside from white tourists?) :smile:

To go with Gorby, you can name him Mandela.

Marina, That dog is so cute and it would be easier to give him a girls name but since I can’t, I really think the name :grin: Cleo :grin: would be a great name, Plus he looks like a Cleo and being a nerd at heart :grin: Cleo :grin: is the name of the Firefox program (Compact Library Extension Organizer) called Cleo, it is a Firefox extension that works with FEBE to package any number of extensions/themes into a single, installable .xpi file. Something you might want to check out.

When I was in the South Pacific, one of my buddies got a bad sun burn. I did not know Black guys could burn, be he sure as hell did. Laid him up for a couple days. We all had to cover for him so the Navy would not write him up for “destruction of government property.”

Copyrights expire. I think it is 25 yrs after death for music. I do know that it is the writer who gets the $ and not the performer. Written works (books, etc) are a little different. I believe their copyright is 75 years from the original copyright. I’m sure about the logistics, but I may be off a few years on the actual times. :roll:

One of the books that I am researching was written in 1922. I could only find one print copy (on Amazon,) and it cost $450! fortunately, the copyright had expired so this book is part of Public Domain. I was able to d/l a PDF version for free. :grin:

As far as the 8 second rule, I’m not sure about that. I do know that in the ’80s the laws were adjusted due to the “sampling” practices which were prevalent in rap music at the time. Whether the changes were to accommodate or hinder rap artists, I don’t remember. :???:

Are you asking us or Marina?

Oh, and about the vid. I loved it! A little longer run-time, good etymology, M’s off-the-wall humor. I also like it without the green screen. If we’re voting on the past several vids, this one definitely gets my vote.

Great job, Lady M! :grin:

When I noticed Marina’s sunburn it started snowing here *argh*

Bonum might be appropriate, at least for today.

Marina, that farmer tan is screaming, ouch! Don’t forget to slip-slop-slap. Slip on a shirt, slop on sunscreen, and slap on a hat. The Aussies came up with that saying, as they were the first ones to notice an increase in melanomas.

Dear HotForWords,

This New Word News Word is really cool and fun!

I totally agree they should not get Bonus/Bonum! That is terrible! Maybe they got bonum because their job is to not to their job?

As for the Cool Dog :cool:

This was predestined because:

His Name Is BONE-YUM (Pronounced Bonum)!

I Think the AIG Bone Heads need to look at today’s quote of the day!

“The significant problems we face cannot be solved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them.” – Albert Einstein

I guess it doesn’t take a Genius to get a Bonus!

*Bonum

Me Lika Do The Cha Cha, I don’t agree with you on several points.

I have learned that the way bonuses (or boni or bona) are paid is partly responsible for the mess that the world is in now. Boni are given for short term success, no matter of the long term consequences. Boni were also given for fantasy profits that existed only because the assets of a company were supervalued because the financial markets used voodoo mathematics. A lot of so called skilled people have been grossly overpaid for years. That’s the reason why bonus is now a synonym for undeserved extreme high payments.

You say that AIG needs skilled people in order to save AIG. I’ve got one question about that: What skills do these people have? The global financial market has turned into a big casino in the past two decades. Experts of the financial markets are nowadays nothing else than experts on gambling.

Besides that, the fact that some of these executives are now complaining about demands that they shall pay their bonuses back shows that these persons haven’t read the sign of the times. The times of easy quick profits on Wall Street using voodoo mathematics are over. The disasters of the past months clearly shows that the deregulations and the lack of new sound regulations in new markets were a terrible mistake. That what happened in 2007 and 2008 will happen again if we stay on the path of the past two decades. If an executive thinks that he can have the same kind of labour contract like in 2005, then that indicates that this person still thinks in old categories and that he is the wrong person for the job. These people should’t be given the chance to resign, they should be fired immediately.

Basically, it’s the same problem with these executives as with the car industry managers who flew to Washington in their private jets and thought that they would get government money to carry on like before. That doesn’t work, that would lead to an even bigger disaster.

First, you say you disagree on several points. Then you don’t specifically state what those points are, other than to make a few generalities unrelated to this particular case. Apples and oranges are fruit, but not the same thing. If indeed you understood the fine points I brought up concerning AIG, it didn’t come across in your response. You certainly are confused as to exactly what a bonus is, in this case. These were retention bonuses. An exec quit publicly today, another who had to accept $1 a year salary to qualify for his RETENTION bonus. He took the bonus and donated it to charity, just to drive the point home.
Regarding your questions about who these guys are, and what skills they possess giving them value; my information only says that they were worthy producers kept on by the govt. appointed owners to train and familiarize the new govt. appointed people to understand the asset structure, programs, accounts, etc. necessary to conduct AIG business.
The new guys didn’t even know where the bathrooms were until somebody showed them the way…
Barney Franks wants their names so he can see to it that their families and children may be threatened and intimidated! As was explained above, those who fucked up AIG were let go, and not even offerred any bonus. You talk of easy quick money, etc. but that is not the case with AIG. These guys worked for a year for $1, with the RETENTION bonus offerred as an incentive not to jump ship. This was why they weren’t paid before they were retained; they were motivated to focus on doing their jobs for the reward at the end, as opposed to spending their time securing another job elsewhere. They are now getting offers from FOREIGN companies including bonuses not being threatened by the government. From your reply, it appears you are confusing the Madoff/Ponsi schemes with legitimate business enterprises. Perhaps you can stay focused on the AIG discussion without bring into it irrelevant events of other company’s bad business practises. THEN, we could have a meaningful discussion!

Bonus w/ my tax payer money what the hell :twisted:

I have the same dog i named it chico but before that i was thinking of naming him Ricky Boxer Champ Chip Rocky Tank orZeus i had a few more but i forgot them.

seems like a [plausable] explanation :lol:

Resignation letter by a guy at AIG whose bonus was taken away.

The publisher gets the money, remember out artist got screwed out of royalties in the past. Some even lost ownership of their own songs.
Michale Jackson owns all the Beatles songs it’s the most valuable thing he owns, I not sure if he sold it at this time.
So now days it’s whatever deal artist make for themselves with the publisher.
In the old days ppl didn’t know their songs where going to be so much in demand in the future.

call him barsik :)

The writer originally has the copyright. Like any other commodity, this can change hands. Why the Beatles sold their rights, I have no idea. I do know that Michael outbid Paul for those rights, and Paul was pissed.

I saw a news article in the passed couple weeks. Michael was apparently getting his will in order, opening speculation concerning his disease and his last doctor’s visit. Anyhooz, Michael reportedly has willed the Beatles’ rights back to Paul.

Bob, we can always count on you to come through!

Hey Marina,
He’s going to be a big dog. My friend has a 15 month old fila Brazillero that is 180 pounds already…. They call him Waylin.

I think I would name that dog Fella….
Marina seems to be taken….. LOL

This lesson is still sitting in my YT subscription box and I’ve seen it a couple of times here & on YT.

I’m even more confused than you are… I think :???: . Who was well said, ChaCha or logischubibububuuarbabbar?

Has anybody else noticed, that as of lately, there are way more tweets from Marina than comments on this site form Marina? :cry:
The once robust wires of connectivity and engagement have slowly been frayed. :sad:
I don’t like it. :neutral:

Somebody UPS that guy some Vagisil.

Now that he’s unemployed, maybe he should try working on a loading dock or on a road crew so he can get a little perspective.

Sorry Pagedoll.. I’ve been running around the past few weeks and it’s been easier for me to tweet remotely than comment on the website. I’m trying to get an app I have for the iPhone work so that I can do that as well.. but I can’t get it to work.. arghh!

Sorry, I thought it was clear that I have serious doubts about the qualification of these people and that bonuses were really necessary to keep these people aboard. Is it really true that American law doesn’t allow to make contracts that requires executives who leave ship too early to pay a really painful penalty? Is it really necessary to offer executives these retention bonuses?

I’m not confused with the Madoff/Ponzi Scheme. My point is that bonuses are generally calculated on the basis of short term results. A bank that grants a lot of risky credits at high interest rates may be able to present big profits in its annual statements at first. But on the long run, this doesn’t work when too many of these credits become nonperforming. A lot of executives have “earned” bonuses that were calculated on the basis of fantasy profits that never really existed because the assets of their companies weren’t valued according to traditional rules. In the end, these bonuses have expanded the amount of taxpayer’s money that had to be pumped into the system. That’s why everybody outside the financial business is so upset. That’s why people like Mr. Libby shouldn’t even think about offering bonuses because that is a clear sign that Libby and these whining executives are still caught in old thinking that disqualifies them for the job.

Some of these executives may have job offers from abroad. In my opinion, that’s good news for the taxpayer. Let them go and burn someone else’s money.

Hi marina, thanks for share all the knowledge and stuff XD

Having worked on a “road crew” and a loading dock I can assure you and anyone else it does nothing to create or improve one’s prospective. Why do so many fools assume there is something special about Manuel labor? Any healthy person can do it. Very few can be a successful trader or investor.

¡Bienvenido Spooky!
¿Qué es ese fóto encima de su blog (que dice “Discovering the Endless Possibilities etc.)?

Ok, first of all, AIG is a group that insures bank loans against default, same as Fanny May. When they were taken over by the govt., it was because they were bankrupted by banks who had loaned money to people the govt. knew couldn’t maintain their mortgages. These banks were obligated to loan the money because Democrats (ie Barney Franks) changed the rules for loan qualification.
These same Democrats ignored warnings regarding the loans being made by Fanny May, for a year!
Those who attempted to shut down these activities were shouted down in the house of representatives, and are now being condemned for not making their warnings more pronounced.
All of the rule changes were made by Democrats controlling the house and Congress. All were aware of the consequences, and now pretend to be innocent bystanders when their actions, and on their watch (during the Bush administration)
caused the events we are seeing. The problem was initiated by government interference, and their solution is MORE government interference.
Again, to reiterate, these were not performance bonuses, but RETENTION bonuses.
Some of your questions:
“Is it really true that American law does not allow to make contracts that requires executives who leave ship too early to pay a really painful penalty?”
This is a badly worded question, and makes no sense as written.
Perhaps a question which does not generalize and is focused on the AIG situation is one you mean to ask. We cannot have a meaningful discussion if you drift off subject, as you do with this question.
“Is it really necessary to offer executives these retention bonuses?” In the case of AIG, the answer is yes. I will explain yet again. My information only says that they were worthy producers kept on by the govt. appointed owners to train and familiarize the new govt. appointed people to understand the asset structure, programs, accounts, etc. necessary to conduct AIG business.
The new guys didn’t even know where the bathrooms were until somebody showed them the way…
If you had read more carefully the first time, this would not have to be repeated…
You state that “My point is that bonuses are generally calculated on the basis of short term results”. This was never the case with the AIG bonuses. You have misconstrued this on your own.
With AIG, the ship was already sinking, and they were offerred bonuses to stay behind and bail the water to keep the ship afloat. Remember, the bank risks taken were because of government interferences forcing them to make loans to people who were not qualified. Mr. Libby was also a bonus recipient, by the way. And, he was appointed to the task by the govt. (ie Barney Franks).
Your entire second paragraph shows clearly you have no understanding of the AIG situation, and have once again, drifted off subject. The credits were nonperforming from the get-go. The government was the owner and called the shots which YOU blame on the AIG executives, incorrectly. You again, discuss in generalities, speaking of (unspecified) “traditional” rules, ignoring the fact that the government owners (ie Barney Franks) changed the rules. The reason people are upset is because then, as now, they are being lied to by those who perpetrated this fraud – the Democrat lead Congress, under George Bush, and now under Barrack Obama.
Mr. Libby was not the one offering the bonuses – he was a recipient. It was the govt. appointed overseers who did that. Your glib consternation alluding that the AIG executives are whiners is an incorrect assessment, and uncalled for, unmerited character assassination without just cause (a very cruel thing to say, indeed) and serves no purpose in this discussion.
Your last statement has no merit to this discussion and indicates your naive understanding of these economic events. Whoever is doing your thinking for you – to say this, is making you look a fool for saying it.
Now, I hope you understand better, but I don’t believe you get it, since your responses so far indicate you don’t give proper attention to things said clearly to you.

I would name him Bernnie or “Bern” (Burn) for short. Like, “Hey, whats up Bern!” You could also call him Bernel, Berny Poopers, Berndogale, Berny Lickers, The Bernmiser.
@Marina, thanks for the snap…Always better to be too busy than not busy enough. :cool:

Bernard… which comes from bernhard which means bear + brave. He seems like a little brave bear, doesn’t he? Obviously I’m partial to this name :wink:

Not sure about what the prospective might be, but he might get this perspective…

Many workers are taking pay cuts in healthy companies, and working those 10-12-14 hour days, to help get through the recession. People who would need to work 15+ years to amass what this guy’s ‘bonus’ would be.

Meanwhile, this lame is pitching a hissy fit about getting his three quarter of a million dollar ‘bonus’ getting yanked, when his company has gone billions of dollars into the crapper, and needs bailed out.

He’s obviously one of those that aren’t successful. Maybe he should try something he’s more qualified for. Perhaps something involving the phrase, “Would you like fries with that sir?”

The cute dog looks like Pepper to me. I vote for Pepper.

I like the term [Rich Hunt]. I think we might be seeing more of this term.

err yeah , i got a sunburn last sunday on the shoulders . And i thought she had rashes , didn’t notice her arms were red too until i watched it again .

Good point!

You should call the dog “Simba” off the lion king :razz:

I have a request but, its more for clarification of two words…. if that makes sense :???:
Anyway I wanted to know the difference between [presume] and [assume]!

THANKS MARINA!

AIG days are numbered. My prediction is they will go under. Their name is tarnished forever. They will come up with a plan to dissolve the company and start a new one. It will be business as usual but will remember to take off their muddy shoes when then inter a house.

I think it would be smart to get ready to live more independently if such a thing like that would happen. The sales for garden seed has been though the roof. Many companies are unable to keep up with the demand. Also try the barter system. It has alway been a proven system that alway holds it’s value in any economy.

The executives that got the bonus are having it taxed away from their greedy little paws so let them keep them. Their bonus are just accolades of the finance industry which is the porn stars of world commerce.

Marina,
…The puppy name should be Chap or Ersatz, Chap for chaperon and ersatz for, well just ersatz.

Hi Marina
Can you please tell us the origin of the word (draconian) Is it a place? can i get there on my bike? I reckon Horse would be a good name for your puppy. Keep up the good work, see ya later.

Marina, I’m sorry to complain but the month of July in your calander is wrong(or atleast it is in mine). The days are screwed up, it looks like they took the days of June and put them for July. In the calander I got June ends on a tuesday which is right but then July starts on a Monday instead of wednesday.

This demonstration has a Bonus, watch the “whole9yds”

dog name 1)denude,2)denunciate,3)[Damon the demond] :razz: 4)bearlove or 5)gravity…beae go-od..[canvass] with straw

On the bonuses, I applaud Melikadothechacha on his informative comments. I knew the government was playing us, again, to try to enhance their popularity and power as soon as I heard that they knew about the bonuses A YEAR AGO! Chacha’s [synopsis] just confirms how [meretricious] the Congress and Obama really are.

Dog name: Essdiem (short for SlumDogMillionaire) :mrgreen: Or, even shorter, Esdi

If bonus is an adjective and bonum is the noun, the plural is bona (not boni)

(doesn’t anyone study Latin anymore?)

@stōkesjrj1 Lubbock, Tx: ersatz comes from the german word “Ersatz”. this means “substitute” :smile:

@Marina:
but were does the word “shyster” come from??

the pulral IS “boni”. but in some cases “bona” is right

oh ok you are right :roll:

Renaissance DoG, (pretty puppy)…little leo of nard :neutral:

Where does the words [Beautiful Marina] come from?

Perhaps it’s better to say fair skinned :neutral: :neutral:

His Name Is Bonum!

yes, she is.

umm. yes, she is.

MARINA! NAME THE DOG, BONUS!!!

Marina,

Tell your friend that Cesar Millan, The Dog Whisperer, had a segment about a Bernese Mountain Dog. The Bernese calm temperament makes them a natural for pulling small carts or wagons, a task they originally performed in Switzerland, such as pulling a milk delivery cart. Carrying a backpack with water bottles in the pack can work, also.

Yea so is mine and also why for the month of may your picture shows your left arm from your elbow too your hand a purplish bruise color and your wearing a bracelet to draw attedntion too it?

attention

Hi Marina,

I was wondering about the origin of the word [skipper] as in the captain of a ship. I dont see any relationship between the two. I hope you can ( well I know you can) help.

OK, thanks (to FB too) for setting me straight on this. I guess we all can suffer from too much sun. Still, I’ve read that people of Irish descent get skin cancer at 100 times the rate as Mexicans. :sad:

HI Doug I DON’T agree with all of it either.But a lot of it is true.Just saying a lot of funny things happening in American. And a lot of Americans don’t know what’s going on because they are to busy watching all that propaganda on television :!: :?: :grin:

Changes are happening here, too…
… and it’s not funny. :neutral:
I only watch BBC online for news once in awhile.
NEVER turn on my TV set anymore, except to play movies from my computer.
As for the sheeples? They’re all asleep behind the wheel.
And they’re gonna hit something and not know what happened.
Stay awake and aware, my brother. :mrgreen:

Still comes down to hard facts because when you’re talking money it’s a global thang (figures) do the math ~peace be with you~

Eventually it’s a wake up drug known as cold hard reality that supplies sheeple with an unwanted sucker punch letting them know that they’ve been had. Nobody wants to go there, and that it’s even gone this far already is a yet another sad reminder of man’s darker days in history.

I’d rather be having fun that talking about this bullshit but there is duty each and every person must attend to in his her lifetime so ~may wisdom prevail~

Initially, I thought of naming the dog Buster, but I’ll go with Bernie instead. :smile: He’s so cute.

Hey Marina I also want bonus my suggestion for the puppy´s name is WORDIE!!

heyy!
my seggestion for the puppy is
COCO:)))!

hey Marina!
Hope im not too late to submitt names for that georgeous puppy!
I stick by my former youtube comment; where i suggested the name Duke, my childhood dogs name. we called him “Duke of Hazard” as a pun. he was the son of champion dog Prince (Charming), wich is also a cute name :P

I believe such a majestic dog like that should have a really amazing name. Classical and smart, but also cute and approachable, to go with his persona.
Id love especially to put forward Dante or Byron. i thought you’d appreciate their revered Literary backround :P

Other names i quite like are: Cole, Milo, Valentine, Cyrus, Amadeus, Arion

Best of luck!

AAawwww such a cute pup :smile:
Since they’re always exploring and so adventurous, i think you should call him a strong name like “Vasco”…
You know … Da Gama? The Portuguese explorer?
I think it’s a wonderful dog-name :-)

Have fun!

Ajax for name of the puppy.

The dog needs a good, solid masculine name: Ruffage.

Marina, please wear that top on your next green screen video. I want to see you float in mid air.

That’s where Capt. Jack lives.

“Us…want to know?” Hmmm.

It’s funny that people still think of wires that fray. It has been a long, long time since cloth-covered wiring has been used. So why do they think that? Will the next generation still use that “fraze.” :lol:

Oh, and if the owner is a techy, name the dog Barkcode.

I think the amount of music is determined by the number of notes, not time. If you play less than four notes of a song, it is not sufficient to identify a given song. If played very quickly, you can get a lot of sound into eight seconds, but four notes is four notes, no matter how quickly you play it.

Just for fun, the next time some commercial wants to use a famous song, but doesn’t want to pay the royalties, see how many notes they play before they shift off the tune they are trying to duplicate in your mind. An example is Sweet Home Alabama that Kentucky Fried Chicken uh… we need a word that means “almost ripped off, but changed a few notes just in the nick of time, but we all know what song they were trying to play just the same.” Playgerism?

:razz: I’m no perv either! I’m a huge fan too!

You know how in every single warehouse or abandoned-factory scene in a movie there is always this big window fan that runs about 60 RPM? Now anyone who has ever tried to move air around knows with absolute certainty that a 60 RPM fan, no matter how elegantly designed, will barely cause a breeze, much less ventilate a large space. Remember the underground Mars people in Total Recall and how the underground spaces were ventilated by the same dumbass 6′ fans* barely turning over? So why, oh, why does the director do it? It is just so obviously stupid.

*And do you remember how the villain shuts down the fans to suffocate them?

Those executives of company’s that received taxpayer bailout money should be banned from supermarkets and restaurants, cafes, and any other places of obtaining food. Let them eat dollars and coins and credits for food.

Marina – Maybe name the poochy KATO. Do you like the Peter Sellers Pink Panther movies? Well, Kato is the name of Inspector Clouseau’s house servant – the Asian guy who Clouseau instructs to hide in the house and surprise attack him when he comes home in the evening. It’s a funny but appropriate name for a young dog who is always playing around and getting into trouble. (Some people will think the name comes from OJ Simpson’s house guest, Kato Kalin, but nothing could be further from the truth).

Were I to have a dog, I think I would name him PHYDEAUX. I could stencil the letters on his doghouse, and take delight in watching people struggle to pronounce his name, only to realize that the name was actually quite familiar and prevalent (phonetically, at least).

Get it?

FIDO

The dog was given the name Elvis — and nobody (neither here on HFW nor on YouTube) suggested this name.

Hey hs4mm, where did you find that the above dog was named Elvis?
I thought this dog is named Elvis.
Scroll down the Twitpic page and stokesjrj1 made a reference to Elvis.

My bad — I mixed up the dark maltese with the dog of this lesson. So this dog’s name is still unknown.

1. the government screws up epically a lot of the time, so almost none of them deserve a bonus(bonum) and some of them that really screwed up should have to pay for their screw up.(yes its another government rant by the mighty Zinnaku :roll: )
2. maybe the puppy could be named Bernie or Titus. :wink:
