Don't give up on hope. Race Discrimination Commissioner Tim Soutphommasane applauds Australian Test Cricketer Usman Khawaja for saying he lied to Cate Mcgregor about his life in Australia being untainted by prejudice. To be fair, he had been selected to play for Australia at that time. Now he hasn't been. And maybe will never be selected again. But it is sport, and if his record was good enough, and he wasn't an evangelical Christian like Tim Tebow, then he would be selected. But then Malcolm Turnbull was made PM by 55 bedwetters and so it is not really performance governing things. Usman has the support of the race discrimination commissioner. Why would he need it?
The power supply is threatened in Victoria and people may lose their lives to brown outs. I use a CPAP machine and a power cut at night, or over a week, could kill me. The inept Liberal government, run by Malcolm Turnbull and Julie Bishop are suggesting poor people get money for using less electricity. The electricity I use powers my fridge, my computer, my lights, my hot water, my CPAP and my internet. What should I cut from my excess? Meanwhile, HRC is abysmally run in Australia and Julie Bishop wants Australia to lead the UNHRC.
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring
Snowin' and blowin' up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air
What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet
That's the jingle bell rock
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bell chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air
What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle...

I'm a teacher with three decades experience teaching math to high school kids.I also work with first graders and kids in between first grade and high school. I know the legends of why Hypatia's dad is remembered through his contribution to Math theory. And I know the legend of why followers of Godel had thought he had disproved God's existence.

Remember Patrick Henry's words: "Give me liberty or give me death." Don't let illusions of impossibility silence you—act today to ensure free speech endures for tomorrow. What's one step you'll take right now?
Free speech has been challenged before. In the US, World War I and World War II imposed wartime restrictions. The prolonged nature of the Vietnam War made such restrictions obvious, as did the war in Afghanistan. However, the failure of the press to remain free has led to remarkable academic debate. It is now claimed—and widely accepted—that free speech is illusory and not truly possible. Minor restrictions on style are said to mean that speech was never free. This view is Orwellian. What happened?
In antiquity, was there free speech in Athens when Socrates was ordered to leave? He drank poison rather than accept exile, but he had had his say. When Athens defeated Persia at sea, scuttling an invasion plan, the successful generals were ...

Some observations:
