| Keith Allen walks off The Late Show |
 |
Keith Allen storms out of a BBC Late Show debate
about situation comedy. Other participants include
Tariq Ali, Vic Reeves, and Morwenna Banks. Keith
makes the comment "You haven't got a chip on your
shoulder. You've got a vindaloo" which was
reportedly the inspiration for the Fat Les track
Vindaloo.
Can anyone confirm whether this programme was
actually broadcast? From posts I've read on the
Internet, I understand this was just a pilot.
Please note this clip does contain strong
language.

This is a documentary of an untraditional flavor
made by Keith Allen on the Westboro Baptist
Church. He goes to Topeka and acts like an idiot,
but is able to reveal the "sinful" nature of the
church's leadership and its members.
The leader, Shirley, does admit to having
committed a specific sin, what Christians call one
of the worst. I don't find this odd in the least.
Since the revelation of child abuses conducted by
Catholic priesthood and clergy of other faiths, I
am sure many are now open to idea that anyone, as
could have been reasonably concluded before these
events, is capable of the worst inhumane acts. The
revelation of Shirley's "youth" proves Westboro
baptists are not unlike any of the people they
accuse or condemn. This is the great hypocrisy of
organized worshiping, to expect even the zealous
to be perfect. I think one reason people take
sides against them is because of their extreme
lack of candor on this matter, though ironically
the moderate who resists criticism is tacitly
doing the same thing.
Atheists are capable of self-contradiction, but
they thrive in correction. Contradiction,
especially derived through evidence, is a great
tool to discovering great truths, scientific or
not. In the matter of "hypocrisy," I take issue
with what Hitchens calls, "the essential principle
of totalitarianism," made by "laws that are
impossible to obey." The act of assigning
commandments that are impossible to keep is
immoral. It is common knowledge that the "strict"
are fallible, yet God gave even them reason to
fear judgment. If this is true of those who
actually try to keep them with full intent, as the
Westboro Baptists do, what does that mean for the
holiday believers? It means that they will be met
by atheists, agnostics, and whoremongers (among
other faiths of course) in the Hell that waits
them. Sound fair to you?
Aside from this issue of manifest hypocrisy:
Christianity in general must answer for the crimes
of this "extremism." Adherents must answer because
their literature provides the iconography,
diction, and lexicon of people such as these.
Listen to them speak. With each claim they cite
chapter and verse. Don't anyone tell me these are
the rantings of a lost group taking the
"metaphors" in the Bible too literally. Moderation
in Christian thinking allows for statements like
these because it has to. The one idea separating
fanatic from moderate is apology, and I'll bet you
know which type of believer I'm referring to.

| Keith Allen blows an easy catch that costs the game |
 |
Oregon WR Keith Allen drops a heartbreaker, one of
the most frustrating moments in Oregon sports
history. On a 4th and 10 senior WR Keith Allen
has a ball bounce off his chest that would have
set up a game-winning FG vs. the 4th ranked Cal
Bears on 11/09/2004. Because of this choke the
Ducks lost the game, finished 5-6 on the season,
and missed out on going to a bowl game for the
first time in 11 years.

| Keith Allen, DETROIT RED WINGS Legend Tribute. |
 |
Allen played junior hockey for the Saskatoon
Quakers in 1940--41, and then joined the
Washington Eagles of the Eastern Amateur Hockey
League for the 1941--42 season, followed by a year
with the Buffalo Bisons of the American Hockey
League. During the Second World War, he played on
the Saskatoon Navy hockey team, and then played
the 1945--46 season in the Western Canada Senior
Hockey League with the Saskatoon Elks.
In 1946, Allen joined the Springfield Indians of
the American Hockey League, and played on that
team for five years, followed by three seasons
with the Syracuse Warriors. He was traded back to
Springfield in February 1954, but refused to
report to Eddie Shore's team, and was instead sent
to the Detroit Red Wings. He played 10 games with
Detroit in the 1953--54 season and played in the
playoffs, getting his name engraved on the Stanley
Cup. Allen played another 18 games for the Red
Wings in 1954--55, which would be the end of his
NHL playing career.
For most of the 1954--55 season, Allen played in
the Western Hockey League for the Edmonton
Flyers—a Detroit affiliate—on a team that
included future Hockey Hall of Fame inductees
Johnny Bucyk, Norm Ullman, Glenn Hall, Al Arbour,
and player-coach Bud Poile. He then played one
season with the Brandon Regals before being hired
by the Seattle Americans as player-head coach in
1956. He retired as a player in 1957 to become a
full-time coach.
