200,000 Gallons of Oil Spilled from Keystone Pipeline...


POSTED BY ANONYMOUS 2



200,000 Gallons of Oil Spilled From the  Keystone Pipeline


Search The Atlantic

GOOD GOING KELCY WARREN! YOU AND YOUR NWO AHOS AND ANYONE THAT MADE THIS POSSIBLE NEEDS TO BE ARRESTED.....RIGHT NOW! YOU WERE WARNED!!

AND, the Administration of President Trump appointed former Texas Governor Rick Perry as the new head of the EPA! With the current earth changes and movement of the plate eastward across the nation, Perry should have been well aware that something as serious as this was a distinct possibility

It's all about MAKING MONEY for the ETP INVESTORS.

Just like ANONYMOUS 2 said would happen...
IF THIS WOULD HAVE LEAKED INTO THE RIVER, up to 17M people's drinking water would have been effected...

The leak comes just four days before TransCanada faces an important vote.


A stack of pipes that have collected snow
The Keystone pipeline was temporarily shut down on Thursday after leaking about 210,000 gallons of oil into Marshall County, South Dakota*, during an early-morning spill.

TransCanada, the company which operates the pipeline, said it noticed a loss of pressure in Keystone at about 5:45 a.m.

According to a company statement, workers had “completely isolated” the section and “activated emergency procedures” within 15 minutes.
 
Brian Walsh, a state environmental scientist, told the local station KSFY that TransCanada informed the South Dakota Department of Environment and Natural Resources about the spill by 10:30 a.m.
 
TransCanada estimates that the pipeline leaked about 5,000 barrels of oil at the site, Walsh said. A barrel holds 42 U.S. gallons of crude oil.
 
The Keystone pipeline system is nearly 3,000 miles long and links oil fields in Alberta, Canada, to the large crude-trading hubs in Patoka, Illinois, and Cushing, Oklahoma. It was completed in 2011. The entirety of its northern span—which travels through North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, Missouri and Illinois—would stay closed until the leak was fixed, the company said.

TransCanada said it was still operating the pipeline’s southern span which connects Oklahoma to export terminals along the Gulf Coast.

The pipeline’s better-known sister project — the Keystone XL pipeline—was proposed in 2008 as a shortcut and enlargement of the Keystone pipeline.
 
In 2011, climate activists seized upon the Keystone XL pipeline, warning that its completion would allow the exploitation of much of Alberta’s tar sands and lock in too much future carbon pollution.

James Hansen, then the director of the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies, warned in The New York Times that exporting oil from the Albertan tar sands would mean “game over for the climate.”

In 2015, President Barack Obama blocked the pipeline as part of his administration’s preparation for the UN climate-change talks in Paris. But less than a week after his inauguration, President Donald Trump ordered that decision reversed. What the Trump boyz didn't calculate was the LEAK and others that are coming..... TRUMP went against a judge's orders/decision so he could save 45,000 jobs and perhaps gamble against 17M peoples' drinking water...

Donald - did Kelcy Warren tell you there is enough oil capped off in Texas to carry us way into the future? The North Dakota oil is for Asia and that is where it is going....

Trans-Canada faces one final approval— from the Nebraska Public Service Commission — before it can finish building Keystone XL. In a fluke of timing, that all-important meeting will take place this Monday, November 20.

TransCanada has already completed two spans of new pipeline around the trading hub in Oklahoma. Those projects make up about 40 percent of the Keystone XL project, and oil is already flowing through them.

But even if the company wins approval next week, some analysts argue that the falling price of oil has made Keystone XL uneconomical. (STUPID AHOS! SOMEONE NEEDS TO LOSE THEIR MANSIONS OVER THIS CRAPPOLA!)

The long-term environmental costs of an oil spill can vary greatly by location and the length of time the spill goes unnoticed. In 2006, BP spilled 267,000 gallons of crude oil in Prudhoe Bay on Alaska’s northern coast. Though that is about the same amount that leaked from Keystone on Thursday, it flowed from the BP pipeline over at least five days. BP ultimately paid more than $100 million to the federal government, the state of Alaska, and Alaskans for damages related to the incident.

THIS OIL WAS NOT FOR US BUT FOR ASIA!
 
ALSO, THERE IS ENOUGH OIL CAPPED OFF IN THE GROUND IN TEXAS TO SUPPLY ALL OUR NATION'S OIL NEEDS FOR A LONG - LONG TIME.  SO WHY IS THE U.S.A. SENDING THIS OIL TO ASIA WHEN THE UNITED STATES ALREADY HAS ENOUGH OIL TO TAKE CARE OF OUR NATION'S OIL NEEDS?  
 
AND, BY THE SAME TOKEN, WHY IS THE U.S. IMPORTING OIL FROM THE SAUDIS  FOR THE SAME REASON? OUR NATION HAS MORE THAN ENOUGH OIL TO MEET THE NATION'S OIL NEEDS WITHOUT PAYING IMPORT/EXPORT TAXES IMPOSED UPON OUR NATION'S PEOPLE. 
 
THIS OIL PIPELINE FIASCO IS ALL ABOUT - SOLELY - MAKING MONEY FOR A BUNCH OF WEALTHY SELFISH AHOS WHO ARE MAKING MONEY OFF THE BACKS OF HARD WORKING AMERICANS.

WE GUESS THE RICH ARROGANT FOOLS HAVE NOT BEEN READING THE FRONT PAGE HEADLINES IN ALTERNATIVE NEWS THAT WE ARE NOW MOVING FORWARD TO FREE ENERGY, AND THAT OIL WILL QUICKLY BECOME A COMMODITY INVESTMENT OF THE PAST!  

OUR GALACTIC FRIENDS SAID THEY WERE AGAINST THIS FROM THE START..

Abracadabra



Abracadabra

One of Kunstler's better posts explaining the 'magic' of money manipulation by the Federal Reserve and its minions. Certainly the entire modern financial world is a 'virtual house of cards' doomed to fall. But, in the meantime, best to invest in physical assets including those that directly support life. Priorities, priorities!

James Howard Kunstler
December 11 2917
And so, as they say in the horror movies, it begins…! The unwinding of the Federal Reserve’s balance sheet. Such an esoteric concept! Is there one in ten thousand of the millions of people who sit at desks all day long from sea to shining sea who have a clue how this works? Or what its relationship is to the real world?
I confess, my understanding of it is incomplete and schematic at best — in the way that my understanding of a Las Vegas magic act might be. All the flash and dazzle conceals the magician’s misdirection. The magician is either a scary supernatural being or a magnificent fraud. Anyway, the audience ‘out there’ for the Federal Reserve’s magic act — x-million people preoccupied by their futures slipping away, their cars falling apart, their kid’s $53,000 college loan burden, or the $6,000 bill they just received for going to the emergency room with a cut finger — wouldn’t give a good goddamn even if they knew the Fed’s magic show was going on.
So, the Fed has this thing called a balance sheet, which is actually a computer file, filled with entries that denote securities that it holds. These securities, mostly US government bonds of various categories and bundles of mortgages wrangled together by the mysterious government-sponsored entity called Freddie Mac, represent about $4.5 trillion in debt. They’re IOUs that supposedly pay interest for a set number of years. When that term of years expires, the Fed gets back the money it loaned, which is called the principal. Ahhhh, here’s the cute part!
You see, the money that the Fed loaned to the US government (in exchange for a bond) was never there in the first place. The Fed prestidigitated it out of an alternate universe. They gave this money to a “primary dealer” bank in exchange for the bond, which the bank abracadabraed up for the US Treasury. Well, not really. In fact, the Fed just made a notation on the bank’s “reserve” account that the money from the alternate universe appeared there. Somehow that money was sent via a virtual pneumatic tube to the US Treasury, where it was used to pay for drones to blow up Yemeni wedding parties, and for the Secret Service to visit pole dancing bars when the president traveled to foreign lands.
Here’s the fun part. The Fed announces that it is going to shed this nasty debt, at about $10 billion worth a month starting this past October. Their stated goal is to reach an ultimate wind-down velocity of $50 billion a month (cue laugh track). If they ever get there (cue laugh track) it would take 20 years to complete the wind-down. The chance of that happening is about the same as the chance that Janet Yellen will come down your chimney on December 24 with a sack-full of chocolate Bitcoins. But never mind the long view for the moment.
One way they plan to accomplish this feat is to “roll off” the bonds. That is, when the bonds mature — i.e. come to the end of their term — they will cease to exist. Poof! Wait a minute! When a bond matures, the issuer has to send the principal back to the lender. After all, the Fed lent the US Treasury X-billion dollars, the US Treasury paid interest on the loan for X-years, and now it has to fork over the full value of the loan (hopefully in dollars that have magically inflated over the years and are now worth less than when they were borrowed — another magic trick!). But that doesn’t happen.
Instead, when the theoretical principal is returned to the Fed, the Fed disappears the money, like the girl in a bikini onstage who enters the magician’s sacred box and vanishes. Now you see her, now you don’t. The explanation, of course, might be that the money was never really there in the first place, so it makes sense to fire it back to the alternative universe it came from. Well, uh, I guess….
The catch is: for a while it was here on earth and folks were doing stuff with it, such as the aforementioned drone strikes and pole dancers. Not only that, but the “primary dealer” banks were allowed to loan out ten times the reserve minimum denoted on their Fed accounts for participating in the scheme. Who did they lend all that money to? Apparently, a lot of it went to corporations who borrowed it at ultra-low interest rates in order to buy back their own stock, which paid dividends way higher than the interest rate they borrowed at to buy the stuff, and which also pumped up the share value of the stocks, which also happened to make the executives of the corporations way richer in terms of their stock options and bonuses (awarded for boosting the share value of the stock!).
And so, shazzam: I give you the one-percent! And a bankrupt United States of America.
And don’t even ask about all those bundles of janky Freddie Mac mortgages fobbed off on the Fed. The reason they did that in the first place was because those mortgages weren’t being paid off, and the banks and insurance companies that held them were choking to death on them. So they parked them in a crawl space under the Fed’s Eccles Building in Washington, hoping they would just turn to compost And guess what: they’re no more valuable now then they were then. File that one under Necrophilia.

ISIS IS DEFEATED – THE U.S. IS NEXT


SYRIA – ISIS IS DEFEATED – THE U.S. IS NEXT IN LINE



Paul Craig Roberts

December 11 2017


Is the US really a superpower or just the biggest collection of stupidity on the planet?

Syria – ISIS Is Defeated – The U.S. Is Next In Line

Washington has already lost the Syrian war once. Now it is about to lose it a second time.

A few days ago the president of Russia, Vladimir Putin, declared a “complete victory” in Syria:

“Two hours ago, the (Russian) defense minister reported to me that the operations on the eastern and western banks of the Euphrates have been completed with the total rout of the terrorists.”


The Iranian commander of the forces which support the Syrian and Iraqi governments sent a note to the U.S. to let Washington know that any remaining U.S. forces in Syria will be fought down:

“The commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corp Brigadier General Haj Qassem Soleimani sent a verbal letter, via Russia, to the head of the US forces commander in Syria, advising him to pull out all US forces to the last soldier ‘or the doors of hell will open up.'”

“My message to the US military command: when the battle against ISIS (the Islamic State group) will end, no American soldier will be tolerated in Syria. I advise you to leave by your own will or you will be forced to it.” 

According to reports, Russia has confirmed that Iran will stay in Syria as long as Syrian President Assad, who insists on liberating all of Syria without exception for the Americans, decides. Washington’s plan to occupy a corner of Syria and revive ISIS is dead in the water, as will be all US troops sacrificed to this purpose.

According to reports, CIA director Mike Pompeo sent a letter to Soleimani expressing his concern about Iran’s intention to attack American interests, declaring Washington “will hold Soleimani and Iran accountable for any attack.”

According to reports the CIA’s letter had no effect and was treated with total contempt:

“Mohammad Mohammadi Golpayegani, a senior aid to the Grand Ayatollah Ali Khamenei confirmed Pompeo’s attempt to send a letter but said  ‘Soleimani refused to read it or to take it because he has nothing further to add.’ Sources in the area believe it is not unlikely that Kurdish troups – operating in al-Hasaka and who are faithful to the government of Damascus – are willing to be spearheaded against the US forces. Many of these troops remained loyal to Syria: they reject any occupation forces on its land or the partition of the country.”

There are references to 1983 events where hundreds of US Marines and French paratroopers were killed following double suicide attacks by Islamists in Beirut. As a consequence of these attacks, the American forces left in a rush. The future could well mirror this past event. 

Possibly this is fake news. If not, we must accept that the humiliation that the United States, its government and its peoples have suffered is the work of the neoconservatives and their doctrine of American World Hegemony. It is the neoconservatives who caused the US to be at war with Muslims for 16 years. It is the neo-conservatives acting through Obama and Hillary who brought America to humiliating defeat in Syria. 

There are only a handful of these neoconservatives. Why do Americans tolerate them?

Why doesn’t Trump have them arrested? They are anti-American, pro-Israel to the core. The neoconservatives are the worst enemy of Americans and of all mankind.

It looks like the Russians have had enough of Washington’s arrogance.

Russian general Konashenkov, whose Su-35 chased away the inferior US F-22 that was attempting to interfere with a Russian attack on ISIS said that any claims made by US military officials concerning the fact that there is “any part of the airspace in Syria that belongs to the US” are “puzzling.” Konashenkov also said that “Syria is a sovereign state and a UN member and that means that there can be no US airspace ‘of its own.’ Unlike the Russian Air Force, the US-led coalition is operating in Syria without any legal basis.” 


Will Washington realize that it has squandered its leadership in the Middle East and go home, or will Washington bring more humiliation upon America?

Here Are the Smoking Guns, Mr. Trump....


By Anna Von Reitz

Well, folks, for all those who have pooh-poohed what I have been teaching about jurisdiction and the fact that the American People have been bamboozled and mistreated by their own employees--- the members of Congress and the military--- we now have the definitive proof in their own words: Pamphlet 27-161-1 from the War Department/Department of the Army.  


This "little" document, only 232 pages, was supposed to be widely distributed to the public and to the court system back in 1959 --- and wasn't.  Please notice the title, "The Law of Peace". 

This is what the dirty bastards have owed to the American states and people since 1860 and what they have deliberately withheld on false pretenses so that they could justify creating "public trusts" in our names and then raping and pillaging those public trusts. 

It's not just the filthy crooked Congress.  It's the filthy crooked military leadership as well.  This has not taken place in a vacuum.  They knew what they owed us.  They knew what they were supposed to be doing.  And here is the proof--- published and in their own words, with their own document numbers.


Read it and weep! 

And as for me, I am totally justified.  Everything I said.  Everything I told you.  The jurisdictions.  The citizens.  The nationals.  All of it.  Black and white.  Take that, Larry Becraft.  Take that Bob Hurt.  Stuff it, American Bar Association. 

The ABA has been nothing but a worthless self-perpetuating crime syndicate on our shores, a "professional" fellowship for pirates engaged by foreign governments for the express purpose of pillaging innocent people--and then using the ill-gotten gains to go pillage more innocent people throughout the world.   

All the "law" schools in this country might as well be burned down or turned into hospices. 

And all the military schools, too.  We have somehow perpetuated a military that speaks of honor and has none. 

Our own military has sunk lower than the worst kind of Third World junta, and they have less excuse, because they have had the trust and power and wealth and education and privilege to do things according to the actual law and according to their oaths and they have failed us.  They have failed the entire world.

When I read this document in their own words part of me wanted to explode with satisfaction: here at last, unequivocally, flatly, in the flesh, is the proof of all that I have said and proof that they knew it, too, tied up and wrapped with a bow.  

And the other part of me wanted to find a bathroom and retch, because what this also proves is the extent of the corruption that has infested not only the Congress, but the entire military infrastructure as well. 

The Judge Advocate Generals have known all along that the American people were owed the Law of Peace and they sat there on their velvet tuffets and imposed the Law of War instead.  They did this in the most venal self-interest imaginable.  They did this in gross disrespect of the Public Law, in gross disrespect of their Oaths and Obligations, and in gross disregard of international law as well.

Everyone who has occupied the office of Judge Advocate General since 1959 deserves to be court-martialed. According to the distribution page on PAM 27-161-1 every Legal Services unit in the Active Army, the National Guard, and the Army Reserve received a copy.

As if this was not enough to prove the complicity and the gross betrayal of Congress and the US military of their employers, we have this expose from Forbes Magazine and the University of Michigan:


The amount of money mysteriously missing from these military budgets just happens to be roughly the same amount as the National Credit owed to the American states and people: $21 trillion.  Remember that the way this system is set up, their US National Debt always exactly equals the National Credit owed to the American states and people.   

"So where's the National Credit?" was the first question out of my mouth many years ago, and now we know. 

Read that--- our own military embezzled the National Credit owed to you and your family and sunk it off-shore somewhere for their own benefit.  Who is responsible for this outrage?  Members of Congress and the various Secretaries of Defense beginning with Donald Rumsfeld.

The vermin have borrowed against our assets under false pretenses--- our land and our labor--- until they could borrow no more, then they have stolen the credit owed to us, and they are sitting there in Washington, DC, planning their excuses for imposing martial law--- which they have been imposing illegally for 150 years anyway.

The American states and people were always their Priority Creditors and they knew it and they stole your credit and lied about the entire circumstance to the American people and the rest of the world. 

These horrific liars and hypocrites have done this all to the tune of Yankee Doodle Dandy and quaint little books about George Washington and the Cherry Tree fed to school children to indoctrinate them into believing their Big Lies--- and continuing to go along and serve this monstrosity without question. 

Forget the Russians.  Forget the Muslims.  Forget the Zionists, too. 

The Evil is right here, right in your face, just as Edward Snowden told everyone it was. It's home-grown, not imported. 

It's right here in the run-amok federal agencies--- the "DOJ" that couldn't find Justice (or their butts) with both hands, the FBI, the BATF, the CIA, the DIA, the DARPA, the FEMA, the "Homeland Security", the NSA, the BLM, the IRS, the Bureau of the Fiscal Service, the whole lying rotten pack of disgusting predatory vermin who can't seem to do their jobs or figure out who in the hell they actually work for.  It's the "departments" of the "government", too--- the "Department of the Treasury" that hasn't existed as part of our actual government since 1924---all of it so incredibly mucked-up and criminalized that it defies description. 

And let's not forget the "Federal Reserve"--- a bunch of nasty old European interests that never actually had a leg to stand on, a pot to piss in or a place to throw it out--- until Franklin Delano Roosevelt and the New Deal Democrats decided to give our country and the value of our labor and our gold and silver reserves to them in exchange for their support of the Democratic Party's quasi-communist agenda. 

And that isn't saying that the Republican Party is much better, either, because they have sat on the sidelines and sucked off the cream and wrangled to benefit their own corporate interests with complete disregard for this country and for the people who sent them to Washington, and without any more regard for law or honesty or honor than the filthy Democrats who have sought to enslave everyone on this continent.

Mr. Trump doesn't just have the job of draining the swamp, he's being forced to use alligators to do it. 

So now that you all have the facts and the proof, where are your mops and buckets?   Light up those switch boards.  Make those telephones ring.  Hit the "share" button until your finger bleeds.  Sit down and explain it to your wife: we've been betrayed from within by unimaginably corrupt and stupid members of the US Congress and even more corrupt members of the US military. 

Make the Bad News go viral--- because the first step toward solving a problem is knowing that you have a problem and defining what it is.  And then bringing pressure to bear against those responsible--- the Judge Advocate Generals, in particular, the members of Congress in general, the so-called Federal Reserve, the IMF, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the heads of the agencies and commissions, the cabinet members and department heads, all the politicians from here to breakfast. 

Print copies of this article and copies of the Law of Peace pamphlet and copies of the Forbes magazine article and dump millions of copies on the internet worldwide so that the truth can't be erased by another convenient book burning or computer failure.  Save copies to your hard drives and back them up. Make hard copies for your personal libraries.  Make a hard copy of the pamphlet and take it to court with you, ready to throw down in front of the judge.  Make them run screaming into the bushes, where they belong, cowering under a fence with a porcupine as their only friend.  

Start asking--hey, where is my $21 trillion dollar National Credit?  Why am I being mis-characterized as a "US citizen" when I'm not and don't want to be?  Who the hell is responsible for falsifying all these public documents?  Why am I being tried in a military tribunal under the Law of War when I am owed the Law of Peace?  What kind of fraud game is going on here?  Who do you people think you are?  How dare you put your filthy mitts in my pocket and think that I am obligated to pay your salaries for this kind of "service"? 

Just say "No".  Say it loud.  Say it clear.  Let it be heard from sea to shining sea.  And join the chorus.

TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS


 
TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS,

    HE LIVED ALL ALONE,

    IN A ONE BEDROOM HOUSE MADE OF

    PLASTER AND STONE.

  I HAD COME DOWN THE CHIMNEY

    WITH PRESENTS TO GIVE,

    AND TO SEE JUST WHO

    IN THIS HOME DID LIVE.   

  I LOOKED ALL ABOUT,

    A STRANGE SIGHT I DID SEE,

    NO TINSEL, NO PRESENTS,

    NOT EVEN A TREE.

  NO STOCKING BY MANTLE,

    JUST BOOTS FILLED WITH SAND,

    ON THE WALL HUNG  PICTURES

    OF FAR DISTANT LANDS.

    WITH MEDALS AND BADGES,

    AWARDS OF ALL KINDS,

    A SOBER THOUGHT

    CAME THROUGH MY MIND 

  FOR THIS HOUSE WAS DIFFERENT,

    IT WAS DARK AND DREARY,

    I FOUND THE HOME OF A SOLDIER,

    ONCE I COULD SEE CLEARLY.   

  THE SOLDIER LAY SLEEPING,   

    SILENT, ALONE,

    CURLED UP ON THE FLOOR

    IN THIS ONE BEDROOM HOME.   

  THE FACE WAS SO GENTLE,

    THE ROOM IN SUCH DISORDER,

    NOT HOW I PICTURED

    A UNITED STATES SOLDIER.   

  WAS THIS THE HERO

    OF WHOM I'D JUST READ?

    CURLED UP ON A PONCHO,

    THE FLOOR FOR A BED?   

  I REALIZED THE FAMILIES

    THAT I SAW THIS NIGHT,

    OWED THEIR LIVES TO THESE
    SOLDIERS

    WHO WERE WILLING TO FIGHT.

  SOON ROUND THE WORLD,   

    THE CHILDREN WOULD PLAY,

    AND GROWNUPS WOULD CELEBRATE

    A BRIGHT CHRISTMAS DAY.   

  THEY ALL ENJOYED FREEDOM

    EACH MONTH OF THE YEAR,

    BECAUSE OF THE SOLDIERS,

    LIKE THE ONE LYING HERE.   

  I COULDN'T HELP WONDER

    HOW MANY LAY ALONE,

    ON A COLD CHRISTMAS EVE

    IN A LAND FAR FROM HOME.

    THE VERY THOUGHT

    BROUGHT A TEAR TO MY EYE,

    I DROPPED TO MY KNEES

    AND STARTED TO CRY.

  THE SOLDIER AWAKENED

    AND I HEARD A ROUGH VOICE,

    "SANTA DON'T CRY,

    THIS LIFE IS MY CHOICE

  I FIGHT FOR FREEDOM,

    I DON'T ASK FOR MORE,

    MY LIFE IS MY GOD,

    MY COUNTRY, MY CORPS."

  THE SOLDIER ROLLED OVER

    AND DRIFTED TO SLEEP,

    I COULDN'T CONTROL IT,

    I CONTINUED TO WEEP.

  I KEPT WATCH FOR HOURS,

    SO SILENT AND STILL

    AND WE BOTH SHIVERED

    FROM THE COLD NIGHT'S CHILL.

  I DIDN'T WANT TO LEAVE

    ON THAT COLD, DARK, NIGHT,

    THIS GUARDIAN OF HONOR

    SO WILLING TO FIGHT.

  THEN THE SOLDIER ROLLED OVER,

    WITH A VOICE SOFT AND PURE,

    WHISPERED, "CARRY ON SANTA,

    IT'S CHRISTMAS DAY, ALL IS   
    SECURE."

  ONE LOOK AT MY WATCH,   

    AND I KNEW HE WAS RIGHT.

    "MERRY CHRISTMAS MY FRIEND,

    AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT."

  

    This poem was written by a Marine. The

    following is his request. I think it is
    reasonable....

    

    PLEASE. Would you do me the kind favor of sending this to as many people as you can? Christmas will be coming soon, and some credit is due to our U.S. service men and women for our being able to celebrate these festivities. Let’s try in this small way to pay a tiny bit of what we owe.

  Make people stop and think of our heroes, living and dead, who sacrificed themselves for us. Please, do your small part to plant this small seed.
    
  
 May God Bless You!
Have A Very Merry Christmas!!
