Meet Linda Duncan
Sometimes it's better to let candidates speak for themselves.
With that in mind, if you wanted to hear a few of Linda Duncan's actual answers from Monday's all-candidates forum, you have the chance:
Group unites
After the senseless vandalism of the UAAA banner two weekends ago, we managed to organize a painting party to make a new banner to hang. We documented the event in pictures and video and I've compiled it and YouTube'd it.
Thanks to everyone who helped out, the enthusiasm and commitment to the club this year is phenomenal.
Avast ye scallywags
Y'argh!
Today be International Talk Like a Pirate Day!
As a special tribute, I want to make ye all aware of the Computer Engineers of the University of Alberta. They be the rowdiest crew of plunderers since the Last Saskatchewan Pirate (see the video).
Doubt my words about the mighty CompEs? Just watch the video below (2 parts):
As a final word, any buccaneers that be reading this in the area of Edmonton should do well to drop by Dewey's on campus after 15h00 and visit the Pastafarians of the UofA Atheists and Agnostics.
Until next year, keep plundering the booty!
Colbert: Better Know a Lobby – Atheism in Canada
This past Friday, Lori Lipmon Brown from the Secular Coalition for America was on the Colbert Report, but Canadian's have been unable to view Comedy Central's feeds. Now the Comedy Network in Canada has posted the video. Unfortunately I can't embed it (damn you CTV), but you can go here to see her interview.
Update: Unfortunately, this video has been removed from CTV. Hopefully you got a chance to see it. If you have a link to a site we can watch it in Canada, post it below.
Sex sells atheism?
There's a new [tag]book[/tag] out by lawyer [tag]Geoff Henley[/tag] entitled "[tag]Beyond Reasonable Doubt[/tag]: A Lawyers Case for Disbelief in God" and rather than resort to traditional advertising means, he's created a series of sexed-up [tag]YouTube[/tag] [tag]videos[/tag] to help him sell.
The first I came across was the [tag]bikini[/tag] girls [tag]cat fight[/tag] over [tag]atheism[/tag]:
The sequel to the cat fight features the [tag]girls kissing[/tag] and making up:
Finally, there's the sexy woman in a towel arguing about the [tag]Bible[/tag]:

Rapture Video
I posted a new YouTube video in response to some rapture video someone posted on one of my videos.

The uncut interviews
After posting the FSM Expelled video, it was obvious to some (and hopefully all) that several quotes were taken out of context, and certain views were shown in a biased way.
This was all intentional! The point of the video was satire, and the target was Ben Stein and the Discovery Institute's upcoming Expelled trailer. They take clips from leading"darwinists" and show nice long interviews from IDers. In the spirit of satire I chose to do the same, giving pro-FSMers a long speech and quote-mining the "darwinistic" supporters.
However, I choose to do one more thing to poke at Expelled - I've now released all the interviews to YouTube completely UNCUT! Let's see the Discover Institute's full interviews online (with the false premises exposed).
So here they are (in order of most to least misrepresentation):
FSM Expelled!
With the UofA Atheists and Agnostics, I worked for the past bit and created the following parody trailer to the upcoming film Expelled:
