It's Almost Christmas!
by Rebecca Gillan

Happy Wednesday, everyone! It's almost Christmas; do you have your shopping done? I actually did, but then I found something totally awesome. I present the most awsomely insane toy ever:

Not only did I decide I needed to get the sock money versions for my own darling sons, who are probably too old for them but are getting them anyway, I also decided that someone needed to get a set of them for Mooney and Marissa's darling little wolf pups, too! Enjoy today's bit of flash fiction hilarity!

THE ECONOMIC OIL WAR 'NEWS' ~

Is Ruble Collapse Act of War-Paul Craig Roberts :The banks can gamble all they want and they are covered by the FDIC, which has no money. This gives the banks access to depositors’ money,, and it shows the U.S. government is the most corrupt Govt on Earth

Russia has enough resources to reverse ruble crisis – Medvedev
RT - "We will coordinate actions”, he said, specifying that it would include an increase in foreign exchange bank refinancing, and balancing demand and supply of foreign currency through increasing provision of foreign currency liquidity if necessary. Medvedev admitted there are certain fundamental factors behind the weakening ruble, like lower oil prices and no access to international financial markets, but said the psychological factor is huge.

Bloomberg | The Russian economy may come to “a sudden stop” and a bank run “could be in the cards.”

Apple halts online sales to Russia as the ruble plunges in value
The Verge - According to reporters at Bloomberg, Over the last twelve months the value of the ruble has plunged more than 50 percent against the dollar, destabilizing the Russian economy. That drop was already making it difficult for ordinary Russian citizens to purchase imported goods, but Apple's move shows things may get far worse, as foreign companies decide to stop accepting a currency that has been rapidly shedding value with each passing week.

Goldman Sachs: $1 Trillion in Oil Projects at Risk Because of Falling Oil Price
EPJ - Goldman has examined 400 oil and gas fields around the world, many of which are still awaiting a final investment decision. Its analysis, based on a $70 oil price, shows that fields representing 2.3m b/d of output by 2020 and awaiting a green light have now become uneconomic, reports FT.

Ruble plummets losing more than 20% in a day, hitting new dollar and euro lows
RT - No end seems to be in sight for the plight of the Russian ruble, which slumped to new record lows against hard currencies Tuesday. The EUR traded at 93.5 against the ruble, and the USD at 75. The Russian stock market also went haywire, dropping more than 15 percent as of 2:30pm Moscow time, after it dropped 11 percent the day before. Sberbank, the country's largest lender, lost 17.77 percent, and VTB, the second biggest bank, fell by 14.29 percent. State-owned oil and gas companies Gazprom, Rosneft, and Surgut also saw shares plummet.

The Engineered Fall of the Russian Ruble
Kurt Nimmo - Saudi Arabia, the most influential member of OPEC, and the United States are working together to destroy the Russian economy and destabilize the country. Despite the best efforts of the Russian central bank, the ruble is experiencing a dramatic fall. “We are seeing an economic crisis,” Natalia V. Akindinova, a professor at the Higher School of Economics, told the New York Times on Tuesday. “We are seeing a sharp devaluation of the ruble at a time when the central bank doesn’t have the reserves to influence the market, as it did in the past crises.”
