Roy.
Enthusiastic Contrafibularities Yes, I picked up this nice box set from Arrow Films. [ more ]
Enthusiastic Contrafibularities Network on Air are quite good as it's free P&P which is one of the reasons why I like to buy from them. I also like to support them direct as they produce the product. They have a very large back catalogue and keep releasing (at quite cheap prices) lots of interesting films and series. They also have regular sales where you can pick up many blu-ray titles for not much more than a Starbucks coffee. [ more ]
El Loro The director John MacKenzie made more films, the best known being The Long Good Friday. [ more ]

Here's Halloween for either Johnson or Hunt. I seriously don't know who's worse or more deluded...
Baz Yep .....and that the House of Commons is more concerned with playing politics , and their own positions, rather than getting together for the good of the country ! [ more ]

Film debuts
El Loro I happened to look at this thread and saw that all the video clips had vanished mainly because of Youtube having changed from http when I posted them to https. [ more ]
El Loro Plane Crazy is Mickey Mouse's debut: Made before Steamboat Willie but not released until afterwards with an added soundtrack. [ more ]
El Loro Link to a short Swedish clip showing extracts from two advertisements made in 1920 and 1921: http://www.filmarkivet.se/sv/Film/?movieid=165 Notable for being the earliest known clips of Greta Garbo though very different to how she later appeared in films. [ more ]

Rory's got to get his 33 votes and wipe the floor with Johnson tonight.
Dame_Ann_Average I know Twickers I do know a bit about Rory the Tory though and he's not all that he seems and certainly nothing like the we saw bloke last week Saying that, he was by far less scary than the two that's left, one is destroying the NHS and the other wants to flog it to Donny [ more ]
velvet donkey Ive told you I'm voting them out Dame [ more ]
Dame_Ann_Average I'm not talking about his military record or diplomatic record Twickers. He was parachuted into a safe seat and with weeks upset locals by calling them primitive, tying their trousers up with string etc... He's never lived in a rural community and insulting them wasn't a great start. He applauds Jeremy Corbyn's campaigning style and it was obvious from day one that Rory Stewart wanted to come across as a man of the people, understanding the struggles of Cumbria...sadly his voting record is...

EFFT - lurking in the shaddows
Enthusiastic Contrafibularities I must say, it's getting harder to find interesting things to watch. So I can empathise with you there. If it were not for the gardening programmes, Springwatch and Gogglebox, it would be quite easy to keep the tellybox switched off and go do something more interesting instead... [ more ]

Jamie Oliver.........
Enthusiastic Contrafibularities The analysts were saying that JO was not fleet of foot, able to see where the market was going and have the foresight to make the necessary changes to the business to make it competitive. A number of food outlets have gone under of late, it would seem that the British public change their tastes a bit too rapidly these days. I suspect it may be a bit of the people behind businesses thinking that change is necessary very often and part of the public who constantly need change, possible driving... [ more ]
Eugene's Lair Joking aside; I was actually thinking about Gordon Ramsay this afternoon in relation to this story, because Ramsay launched his "Kitchen Nightmares" series to help fellow restaurateurs after he was forced to close his own Glasgow restaurant. IIRC, the figure he quoted was that two-thirds of restaurants close within a year - it really can happen to the best of them... [ more ]
Saint From Twitter: "Hi @ jamieoliver Sorry to hear your restaurants are going through a tough patch, have you considered contacting @ GordonRamsay ? He does this show where he goes into failing restaurants and helps turn them around. Just a thought, best wishes n that xx" [ more ]

Microsoft have issued a security update for even old XP operating systems
Enthusiastic Contrafibularities I'm still using MS-DOS 6.2. Extremely stable and bug free. Very fast on my new Intel i9 processor. [ more ]
Eugene's Lair Thanks for the heads-up, El Loro: I’m on a “long weekend” at the moment, but I expect to be thrown into the thick of it when I return to work on Tuesday! We still use a lot of Win 7 computers and even a few XP laptops at work, because we’ve got several key S/W tools that we’ve been unable to update. The mainstay of our security policy is that they are NOT connected to the internet, but it remains a worry. [ more ]
El Loro Apparently the vulnerability is in Intel processors made from 2011. [ more ]

So if Jeremy Corbyn is antisemtic for promoting Hobson's "Imperialism" is the Arch Bishop of Canterbury antisemitic for reading the New Testament?
Carnelian I frequently drift off topic Baz , it's the way I fly! I got flyer from the Labour Party and one from some English nationalist penises, England Pride or something along those lines. Suffice to say, it will be for Jezza and his very positive message to roll back the neoliberalism that has dragged thousands of the rich into increased wealth while screwing down the working class and making millions poorer. It's a no brainer, Jezza and a socialist new deal all the way. [ more ]
velvet donkey Let politics go. It'not wotth it. [ more ]
Baz Carnelian , you seem to be drifting off your topic , which was to do with the Bible and anti semitism compared with the Hobson book , so I think I’ll leave you to it . Ironically , an election flyer from that Tommy guy and one from the Labour Party popped through my door at the same time today ....I don’t know who I’m going to vote for yet , but it won’t be either of those , so both got binned [ more ]

Free speech.
Carnelian shouting 'fire' in a crowded theatre. When speaking to right wing racist types who feel their racism should be legitimate free speech. I always mention a concept of a Paedophile Party who advocate paedophilia and maybe the murder of victim children being allowed to advocate their abhorrent perversion under 'free speech'. Either you support free speech or you don't. [ more ]

My gut instinct tells me Assange is being fitted up.
Kaytee I always thought the charges were trumped up in order to get him to Sweden so the US could get its hands on him [ more ]
Dame_Ann_Average It's dodgy all round Twickers, he should be tried for the sexual assault in his own country if they have evidence of which I have my doubts as the charges were dropped and now being investigated again. [ more ]
Baz I tend to be suspicious of it too Twickers [ more ]
