Doh! Oh well, at least we can get the msnbc take on it
Sean Spicer ‘spent several minutes hidden in the bushes’…

To be fair - it may not be the first, or last, time that Spicer will likely be hiding in bushes…
😉
(a shame the journalists didn’t turn the cameras on the bushes and start asking ‘why are you hiding in the bushes?’)

Interesting live article on the firing of James Comey by Trump…

Search Nick Pope. There are some great interview stuff he did that’s on youtube. He used to be the British guy in charge of the U.K. Ministry of Defense.
He was? Where did you get the idea that he was in charge of the UK Ministry Of Defence?
I misspoke actually. He was an employee at the UK Ministry Of Defense charged with the UFO research and sightings.
So, British Mulder?
Only in Nick Pope’s mind. He was the man at the MoD who collated UFO sighting reports and enquiries from the public - as to try and ascertain whether any of them had any ‘defence significance’.
For example, farmer Bob saw one of the RAF’s new test planes late last night on the way back from the pub and thinks it was from another galaxy - Pope would record/sift farmer Bob’s statement. Said plane would then not fly near where farmer Bob’s (or from other people in the area) reports of UFO’s again.
Also, if it wasn’t one of the ‘ours’ etc then it’d noted and likely investigated as to find out whose plane it was, or if just a pilot off-course etc.
All the files are now declassified (and some were at the time of writing) and available at the UK National Archives.
He’s made a good career out for himself though since he quit the MoD over 20+ years ago as a ‘self-styled UK Mulder’ and UFO expert - and can write a decent fiction book. Fair play to him.
Then again, many people big up or exaggerate a bit what they do for a living…

Went to Kinkos to have these printed. My Bluray case sizes are 12.5mm, after printing, I attempted to put them in the cases and they are too big? Did I print these wrong? I told them not to scale. What is the best way to print?
Edit: I did split the PDF before print, could that be why?
I’m not 100% sure - but I think many of the blu ray covers knocking around may be for cases with 14mm spines.
Looks like I’ll have to adjust then lol. But it’s weird because the spine looked center and to fit.
Years ago, to try to make sure my old custom dvd covers were the right size, all aligned up correctly, and the cover itself looked ‘ok’ - I used to do a test print on my old home printer; I’d copy my image file to a MS Word file and then select ‘draft quality’ settings on normal A4 paper, and print it, then cut it out to size and fit it into a dvd case.
Think it saved me a few £££’s on the ink (as well as time and effort) I’d have wasted otherwise 😃
Will actuall try this! Great idea.
Here is the image (orange outline) white she is flip side of a standard blu ray cover. This is how much it over sized.
Oh and the part at top right that looks like it hangs over, it’s just bent up, it’s actually aligned.
Definitely a bit more than 1.5mm in difference on the spine size there mate 😉
I used to have a couple of issues with the size of my dvd covers bring too small when printing off from MS Paint back in the day before my MS Word file ‘trick’ - but never had a problem with it printing too large a cover.
Hopefully it’s just a one-off mistake by the printer lad at Kincos?

Seems like some senators are more interested in grilling Sally Yates over her opposition to Trumpy’s travel ban order than the stuff they’re supposed to be talking about today. A–holes.
The one where her views on the Muslim Ban were quickly and repeatedly vindicated by federal court opinions? That one?
Weird because it was never a “muslim” ban and most of the list was sorted by the Obama administration.
From the Washington Post…
On July 24 last year, Trump sat for an interview with Chuck Todd on “Meet the Press”. Todd prodded Trump on whether his new proposal targeting specific countries represents a “rollback” of his original Muslim ban. Trump denied that it was a rollback at all:
TRUMP: I don’t think so. I actually don’t think it’s a rollback. In fact, you could say it’s an expansion. I’m looking now at territories. People were so upset when I used the word Muslim. Oh, you can’t use the word Muslim. Remember this. And I’m okay with that, because I’m talking territory instead of Muslim.
If you take this in the “muslim ban” context
You are implying there is an “if” there, when there isn’t. It’s Trump’s own words.
I could see how one might see it that way
I think you mean “Trump saw it that way”. It’s Trump’s own words.
even Muslims here understood the basis for the concern due to the radicals amongst them which they did not support.
That’s irrelvant to the point you were making. You said “it was never a muslim ban”. Trump said it was, it’s Trump’s own words.
Indeed it was Trump’s own words mate - and also appear(ed) here too…
Anyone come up with, or seen, some decent custom / fan-made Rogue One dvd covers?
(or Star Wars dvd covers at all of late?)
Clucking bell… or if in a sci-fi frame of mind - Frak or Smeg
^ exactly this mate.
Or if you had worked on the film, been part of a team that helped make it so groundbreaking and well-loved - to the point where you won an award for it from your fellow peers - and yet that very work is no longer part of the film - you may feel a little disappointed.
It was there for all to see one moment, and then for the past 20 years it wasn’t…
(not counting the awful quality dvd extra/bonus release 10-15 years ago)
Yes, for me it is the Quinton Cinema (England) - where I saw Empire as a nipper with my uncle, and then bunked off school at the age of 10 to go watch Return Of The Jedi (a different era back then 😉)
And back again for the Special Editions, then the Prequels (no, I didn’t get the refunds I asked for 😉), followed by TFA and then Rogue One…
and now as an ‘adult’, it’s only half a mile from home 😃
Decent piece on the cinema itself (which has changed it’s name many times down the years) - http://www.birminghamconservationtrust.org/2013/09/13/from-danilo-to-reel-the-story-of-quintons-cinema/
a few pics…
‘The Danilo’ as it was known back then - pic taken in 1939…
which became ‘The Classic’ in the 1970’s…
‘The Cannon’ as it was known in the mid-late 1980’s…
‘The Reel’ as it is known today (and still going - https://reelcinemas.co.uk/quinton/now/)…
£5 on Tuesday and Wednesdays, £6.90 other times - about $6.50 & $9 in US money

Not sure if this has been done before with this photo, but I took the original and made a little nod to Rogue One with it.

some top quality work by yourself - not only in this thread but also the other threads in this section of the ot.com too - well in mate 😃
about the photoshipped ship-shipping ship, shipping shipping ships… turns out it likely wasn’t a photoship…
