Happy Holidays:  Christmas Songs Playlist on Spotify

It is a joyful time as we are again grateful to the team at the Mission for this honoring one of our team's favorite characters;  Peanuts!!!   We are  ever so grateful for all the opportunities we have had over the past year as we hope all continue to embrace our adventure .

It was quite a week as we were witness to the the Noble Peace Prize being awarded to ICAN , President Trump announced the move of the US Embassy to Jerusalem and we were able to be witness to the 24 Hours of Reality.  For us, it was especially poignant as Southern California that we have the privilege to call home, was  encircled by a ring of fire.  California's Governor underscored the fact that such fires prompted by Climate Change will be the New Normal.   This is why what the Climate Reality Project, 350.Org and other organizations do is ever so critical.   This is as the Tax Bill was on its' way to becoming law.   

We had the pleasure to release a Notation on it  and we are pleased to present this snapshot on the Kit which we hope all will embrace for the future of the planet:

As we "go dark" through the end of the year, our team will continue periodic "curation" of our Twitter Channel as we also hope all enjoy our live Broadcast Pod featuring Al Jazeera.   As we commend ICAN for its' win of the Noble Peace Prize, ,  we view this small clip courtesy of ICAN that underscores a sense of humanity and a sense of purpose as epitomized as the World celebrated the 70th Anniversary of the adoption of the Declaration of Human Rights:     

There was also this "business Perspective' courtesy of Industry Week which we wanted to feature that we received in our Virtual Newsroom:

About Trump: What Resonated With You As the first President without a background in politics or the military, Donald J.
