Michael Clarke Duncan dies aged 54

Hospitalised since a heart attack on July 13th, Mr. Duncan's publicist released a statement to the press confirming that despite nearly two months of treatment the star had died Monday morning in a Los Angeles hospital.

The former celebrity bodyguard turned Academy Award nominated actor rose to fame for his role in The Green Mile opposite Tom Hanks, as well as films such as Armageddon, The Whole Nine Yards, Daredevil, Sin City and TV show The Finder.

"I identified with John Coffey in the fact that we both had troubled times, we are both big, and by looking at us, you would be fearful of your life if you met us in a dark alley." - Michael Clarke Duncan

Protection for Godless UCL Students

The Atheist, Secularist and Humanist society at University College London (aka The Godless of Gower Street) need your help in choosing what message to print on the condoms they'll be handing out at the university's upcoming Welcome Fair!

As Alex Gabriel from The Heresy Club says:

I think this is brilliant. It shows atheist communities are sex-positive; we support you having as much or as little sex as you want, however you want, with whomever wants it too, and we don’t think you need permission from God or the Pope. We support contraception giving women control over their bodies, and advances in science that protect us from STIs. We don’t call consensual sex sinful, we celebrate it in all its forms.

There's currently a poll open in their Facebook group to see which one of the five designs - three of which are pictured above - proves to be the most popular and they want to know what you think. You can click here or on the image above to go place your vote & spread the word via Facebook, Twitter, etc.

Either way you'll be helping to protect godless UCL students from both religious interference and sexually transmitted infections.
