Random stuff: KHL goaltenders
Jonathan Willis
January 17 2009 06:00AM
So I'll admit off the top that this post has almost nothing to do with the Edmonton Oilers specifically, beyond the fact that it could count as beating the dead "Garon has no trade value at all" horse. It is hockey-related though, and features Ray Emery!
Since I mentioned Ray Emery, let's start with him. He recently played in the incredibly cool looking KHL All-Star game, and his rather nice KHL numbers have sparked rumours of an NHL return next season. Still, for any GMs with an interest in Emery, I'd advise that they at least check out another goalie.
- Emery: 19-6-0, 1.99 GAA, 0.929 SV%
- Other Guy: 11-4-6, 1.69 GAA, 0.941 SV%
The other guy is Vitaly Kolesnik, a Kazakh goaltender who has spent the last two seasons in Russia after coming to North America in 2005-06. Kolesnik was fairly good; he went 3-3 for Colorado (3.24 GAA, .888 SV%) and outplayed the other six goaltenders on his AHL team, posting a .917 SV% and being the only goaltender with a better than .500 record (it may also be worth noting that Cam Ward went 0-2 with a .915 SV% on that team).
I don't mean to take anything away from Emery, because Kolesnik is a good goaltender too, but I think it's probably fair to say that the gaudy statistics Emery has put up have more to do with the quality of his team than a superhuman performance on his part.
Of course, NHL GMs make funny decisions all the time with goaltenders. Consider the New York Islanders, who decided to bring back Wade Dubielewicz, who had been recently bought out of his KHL contract. Here's Dubielewicz, compared to his teammate Stanislav Galimov:
- Dubielewicz: 11-8-3, 2.77 GAA, 0.892 SV%
- Galimov: 17-3-1, 1.91 GAA, 0.924 SV%
Obviously, there's a transition involved to playing in Russia. Perhaps Dubielewicz's play was affected by off-ice issues. Still, it seems odd to me that the Islanders would chose to sign Dubielewicz over, say, claiming Curtis Sanford, when Dubielewicz was massively outplayed by Galimov, an undrafted player who only established himself as a KHL-level netminder this season (last season, he'd sunk as low as the third-tier Russian league at one point). Would it have been that hard to finagle Mathieu Garon or Jeff Deslauriers out of Edmonton?
Another North American player over in the KHL right now is Tyler Moss. Moss was once Oilers' property (acquired for Peter Sarno) and he played for the Roadrunners during the NHL lockout. He's had cups of coffee in the NHL (most notably with the 1998-99 Calgary Flames), but mostly he's been an above-average AHL net-minder. Here's Moss, compared to his teammate Sergei Borisov:
- Moss: 8-13-3, 2.77 GAA, .903 SV%
- Borisov: 8-10-1, 2.33 GAA, .916 SV%
I point this out because Borisov is an undrafted 23-year old, and right now he's one of the better goaltenders in what is either the second-best or third-best league in the world. Galimov, who I pointed out above, is an undrafted 20-year old, and he's right in Emery territory stats-wise.
I believe this is a big part of the reason why top-level AHL goalies and NHL backups have minimal trade value -- there are a ton of capable goaltenders over in Europe right now. Often, they come over to North America and immediately post incredible numbers. If I were an NHL GM, I'd never draft a goaltender, with the exception of those franchise-level talents that typically go within the first five picks.
Most teams have a goaltenders in Europe who could step in immediately at the backup level -- we've seen Jussi Markkanen do it here in Edmonton, and I'm fairly sure that Bjorn Bjurling would be decent as a backup/AHL-level goalie if the Oilers system wasn't already jammed.
There's no upside to drafting and developing average goaltenders. They're available as free agents (Mathieu Garon), for low cost in the trade market (Jason Labarbera) or off the waiver wire (Curtis Sanford). That's a big part of the reason why I don't understand the Oilers' reluctance to waive Garon, or trade away Jeff Deslauriers. Do either offer anything not cheaply available on the free agent market, or in Europe, this summer?

This is a very good read. Thanks.

Once again my mind is blown Willis. That made so much sense.
If only there was some top six guys playing somewhere in a hole in Siberia...
January 17 2009, 08:27AM
"That's a big part of the reason why I don't understand the Oilers' reluctance to waive Garon, or trade away Jeff Deslauriers."
It's because the Oilers' management hasn't had a clue what it's doing since 2006.
January 17 2009, 09:22AM
@ the human torch: is Tambo's comman. Garon went to Pitsburg this morning.
January 17 2009, 09:23AM
January 17 2009, 09:24AM
It's early, pardon the spelling please.
'Bout time we got rid of a goalie. Plus we get 2 guys back? Unusual looking at the last couple of goalie transactions around the league.
January 17 2009, 09:54AM
another trade for ho hum who? gota keep at the bottom of the food chain
I am amazed they got anything for Garon...let alone 2 players and a 4th. Please for the love of all that is sane tell me Sabourin can be sent to the minors. What kind of player is Stone? is he anything other than Springfield material?
January 17 2009, 10:08AM
So we trade Garon for a sub-par goaltender and a future 4th line center. This fixes our problems how exactly?
@ NoPantsTuesday:
exactly what did you think Garon was going to be traded for? I am flat out shocked with the return. Considering LaBarbera got a 7th, Sanford and Gerber were waived, and Columbus couldn't find a taker for Norrena so he went to Europe.
January 17 2009, 10:35AM
I'm confused. Another back-up goaltender, and another Reddox. Like someone else said "It's hard to be an Oilers fan"
This is a first step. Get rid of the three headed monster, and find a AHL goaltender to help out Dubnyck. It clears up a roster space, which will be need for Brule when Hemsky and Pisani come back and Brule has played past his no waive elegibility.
Garon is not the goal tender of the future here. Maybe Tambo will look to Russia or Sweden in the off season.
Jonathon: I disagree with you about not drafting goaltenders. We should draft Euro tenders with late round draft picks and stop wasting high first and low seconds on them.
I can't believe some on here are upset with the return. Why would you think trading Garon, someone who played barely 10 games this year, would achieve more than AHL help or a 4th liner???? I think the return is very good, considering.
We solved the 3 goalie situation, finally. What more would you want out of that trade?
You have to assume that Dany can be sent to the minors, or they wouldn't have made the deal. Good return for Garon, I didn't expect that much.
In the cap world, it's good to have a ll the picks you can, even though it's hit or miss with late rounds. More picks mean a better chance at getting a winner.,
January 17 2009, 11:11AM
Considering what Huet went for last year at the deadline this is steal of a deal for Tambilini.
Ryan Stone is a quality player. He was drafted 32 over all in 2003 which was a deep draft. He's 23. Scores, is a plus player and puts up penalty mins.
He's a tougher version of Brodziak, With the signing of Staal in Pittsburgh they are WAY deep at center, so Stone had no where to move up.
great trade, I just hope that means Sabourin is being sent down.
These two guys should help the Falcons immensely, and from Willis's earlier article about Springfield, they need all the help they can get.
January 17 2009, 11:12AM
to say I'm less than impressed would be an understatement. let's hope the wheeling and dealing is just getting started!
I agree with you guys on the return, not bad, considering what LA got, but the motivation for it? Sure JDD can officially be our number 2, but Roli has looked worn out his last few starts. I would have kept Garon this season, and let him go for nothing in the summer. We needed him more than we need Stone. If JDD can step up were fine though
As I stated before it's a cap world, so it is really hard to pull off blockbuster trades. We have to slowly plug holes, and that means from the bottom up, because Springfield needs our help as much as we need them to be a qaulity developmental team. So again, nice trade Tambo.
TW doesn't agree with this trade. TW thinks that MacTavish should have been the first to go. This club is in a lot of trouble and it is only going to get worse. Rolison on a young team with MacTavish is not going to work. time for a new team. say Calgary?
@ T W: Your negativity is mind numbing.
January 17 2009, 11:25AM
this move is nothing more than a depth move, i expect something else, bigger, to come down the pipe.
January 17 2009, 11:29AM
I guess Dan Tencer was right. It looks like Penguins will challange for the cup now once they get rid of thier problem Craig Therian. Fire MacT NOW!
Didn't Edmonton waste our first overall pick in 2004 taking Dubnyk istead of Wolski, Radulov, or Meszarous? With all these guys in Europe and Labarbra being worth only a seven round pick... seems like a brutal decision to me. The Oilers had two first round picks that year that they turned into a middling goalie prospect, and Schremp. Another huge lost oppertunity. Green in Washington looked pretty good the other night as well.
January 17 2009, 11:38AM
This organization is a joke, Katz was supposed to bring us out of stone age but now we are going back, we need to gut this orgazation from the top LOWE to Joey Moss
I love how some of you are blaming MacT for the trade... Retards!
January 17 2009, 11:50AM
Now watch as I turn Roli's game into crap!

MacT can only coach grinders or a veteran team , like the 06 team, I feel sorry for all you Oiler fans who love MacCrapper, you will go no where with this team, Katz cut your hair fire all the bums and welcome to the 21st century
January 17 2009, 11:56AM
Spacek- now in Buffalo Tardstrom- not sure Smith- Ottawa Pronger- Ducks Staois- still an Oiler???? worst one of these 6 defensmen and he is still with the Oiler. Go figure Green- L.A. Those where the 6 guys who had the run to the Cup. They are all big guys except for Staios and that is the only guy that is left???????? Smyth Rem Murray George Larquoe Todd Harvey Samsonov Stoll Torres Markken Conklin Still here Moureau Pisani Horcoff Hemsky.
That is a total of 14 guys (I'm missing two more forwards but can't think right now from that Great team that are no longer around.
Peca Divorak That is a total of 16 guys who made the final in 2006 that are no longer with the Oilers. Gee, that was sure smart wasn't it, take apart the winning team to what we have now. Oilers brass don't care cause it is a sell out every night.
January 17 2009, 11:56AM
Very good trade. Full analysis is coming, which is why I'm being so short here.
@ Pokie Reddik: I love the people dispensing advice out to billionaire businessman Darryl Katz. Unless Wayne Gretz is Katz, its even dumber than blaming trades on mact

Like the Satan trade? Whitney? he can't coach offence plain and simple, Lowe will do what ever he can to keep this subpar coach
If I were an NHL GM, I'd never draft a goaltender, with the exception of those franchise-level talents that typically go within the first five picks.
Well Im glad I was able to convince someone!
@ Lofty:
Who do you think decided to bench our MVP from last year and go with Roli this season?
If the coach won't play a guy you've got 2 choices:
1) Fire the coach (makes me laugh just thinking that might happen).
2) Trade the player.
I wonder how may other NHL clubs have traded the away their MVP from the previous season for a couple of AHL players and 4th round draft pick??
Sounds like some good asset management to me?
Willis you genius...

That was Ron Low who was coaching Satan. Slats made the trade.

I have to acknowledge what B.C.B said above - the occasional overage Euro picked with a late selection is a good idea too.
Other than that, it's just too risky. If you have a second, you should put up the link to your excellent article on the subject.

Goalies go on hot streaks. They then come back to earth and suck. Theodore. Khabibulin. Gerber. It's not unusual. And in this case, we didn't end up with a 5 year, $30 million dollar extension. I would say we're luckier than Washington, Chicago or Ottawa.
What did you guys expect to get for Garon? This is a pretty solid trade IMO. Ryan Stone has potential and is young and Sabourin has a little NHL experience and will be good for the Falcons.

Is this what Tambellini is supposed to say to the other GM. Well, he was our MVP last year...

He wasn't the coach when those two were here, Ron Lowe was the coach. You should get your facts straight.
Ryan Stone is on a two-way deal that pays him 60,000 in the minors and just over $500,000 if he plays here. Sabourin is in the last year of a one-way deal that pays him just over $500,000.
Sabourin has to clear waivers, while Stone doesn't. This is a trade more to help Springfield than the Oilers. It does free up a roster spot for the Oil, but I can't see them keeping Sabourin here. They have no loyalty to him, and there is no need to continue with the three-headed carousel.
Don't expect Stone to be a saviour in the faceoff dot. HE has taken a grand total of five draws, winning three of them at the NHL level.
He was a decent scorer his last year in Brandon racking up 99 points. His best stat might be his three playoff years in the AHL. He has played 44 games and tallied 11 goals and 33 points. He has some grit to his game, having 100 or more PIMs two of three years in the AHL.
The big difference between him and Reddox is that he has size and some spunk to his game standing 6'2, 205.
This trade doesn't help the Oilers on the ice at all, but it frees up a roster spot, likely keeping Brule here longer, and it will get Deslauriers some more playing time.
January 17 2009, 12:26PM
Tambellini is just a puppet for Lowe, no one wants to deal with Lowe, thats why he was brought in. Katz promoted Lowe so he can keep his bum buddy
Pokie: How about doing the analysis of the trade rather then cmplaining about management? What do you think Garon was worth on the trade market? Does that jive with what goaltenders are being traded for in the last two years? What does MacT have to do with the return for a struggling Garon (I am not addressing his possible involvement in Garon's struggles)?
If we can make Stone into a winger, then maybe he is worth something. A strong checking LW with some scoring touch sounds like a piece of the future to me. We need a strong winger since we don't have that many. How would Stone fit on the depth cart: LW RW Penner Hemsky Nilsson Cole Moreau Pisani Stortini Reddox
Other then that we have a bunch of converted centers playing wing (Poo, Brule, Potulny, Schremp, etc . . .) Stone would be an addition to this growing trend. If stone is better at draws maybe he move up the depth chart at center, or maybe we convert him to LW. I know getting (drafting) the best player available is popular in the NHL, but could Tambo get us a left winger for the future?
January 17 2009, 12:56PM
Good comment Jason. Your interpretation is the only thing that makes any sense.
Reading oilers posts makes me want to scream. If you guys are all so smrt, how come non of you are NHL GMs? We could have traded Garon for a bag of pucks and a used hockey stick and I would have stood up and cheered to see the demise of the three headed monster and yet so many of you lament. Who did you expect to get in return? Crosby? Come on, backup goalies are a dime a dozen right now and just the fact that we didn't have to waive him is good news. This helps Springfield and Edmonton and clears cap space. Now Deslaurier can get some starts. And Garon benched? Have you seen him play recently? Last nights effort aside, I can think of 3 games he played well (his first three) and downhill quick after that. Go ahead poke, my lips are stained from the coolaid, but come on, this is good news people.
A month ago many esteemed members of the nation were begging Tambellini to put one of our goalies on waivers... Instead we landed a prospect, a pick, and a depth goalie who WILL clear waivers... Why is it that many of you are saying we didn't get enough? I may be the king of negativity, but even I know this was a solid move. Garon wasn't going to sign here next year anyway.
@ jono: JINX!
Sabourin might not clear waivers today, seeing the Islander's just lost Dubielewicz to the Blue jackets. But who could see that one coming, since Standford cleared a couple days a go. Maybe Tambo should see if Sabourin could get another 4 round pick from the Isle.
January 17 2009, 01:09PM
I just spoke with Ryan Rishaug from TSN, and Sabourin is not coming here. They will try and trade him or put him on waivers and send him to the minors.
Interesting side note, is that the Islanders just signed Wade Dubielewicz to a one-year deal, but he had to clear waivers, since he was playing in Europe, and the Blue Jackets claimed him.
So now the Islanders are looking for a stop-gap goalie for the rest of the season, because Dipietro's knee keeps swelling up and they want him to take the rest of the year off.
Would Sabourin be of interest to Garth Snow now? Perhaps. Either way Deslauriers is now the back up.
Also on the Stone front, as Brule nears the 160 GP mark, if they don't want him to get to it, Stone is a player they could potentially shuttle back and forth in his place. Once Hemsky, Nilsson, Stortini and Pisani are back some bodies have to go and I'd suspect Brule will be one of them. Brule can only play four more games before he has to clear waivers.

Typing at the same time I guess..haha... You won't get a 4th rounder for Sabourin. The best would be a 7th I would suspect, considering Labarbera got that for the Kings and he was playing more than Sabourin.

Racing Metro needed two late penalties to scrape a 22-17 Heineken Cup victory over Munster at the Stade de France on Saturday.
Racing Metro needed two late penalties to scrape a 22-17 Heineken Cup victory over Munster at the Stade de France in Paris on Saturday.
Racing Metro came back from a poor start to stun Munster in the dying moments.
The Munster pack, led by the returning Paul O'Connell, dominated their French counterparts in the early stages and, after they were unlucky not to be awarded a penalty try, Ronan O'Gara got his side on the scoreboard with three points.
The Irishmen didn't have to wait long for their opening try though as some brittle Racing defence allowed Peter O'Mahony to break through and offload to Sean Dougall to crash over under the posts.
Newly-arrived Racing fly-half Olly Barkley reduced the deficit with a penalty midway through the half on his first start for the club and, after an error in the Munster backline, Jacques Cronje hacked the ball on and Maxime Machenaud touched it down to level the scores.
And, despite the visitors looking the better side for the vast majority of the first half, they went into the interval 13-10 behind after Barkley kicked another three points late on.
Barkley extended the home side's advantage to six points early in the second half and, with the rain falling and the pitch cutting up badly, both sides struggled to create any clear-cut opportunities.
As the match moved into the final ten minutes though, Simon Zebo exploded into action from a quickly taken line-out. The Ireland winger attacked from deep and targeted forwards standing out wide to burst through the defence and score in the corner.
Ian Keatley nervelessly slotted over the conversion from the touchline to give Munster a one-point lead with eight minutes to play but more Munster errors allowed first Barkley and then Mirco Bergamasco to kick penalties and seal victory for Racing.
The scorers:
For Racing Metro:
Try: Machenaud
Con: Barkley
Pens: Barkley 4, Bergamasco
For Munster:

Cons: O'Gara, Keatley
Pen: O'Gara

McKenzie: Flames have eye on Kovie
Jean Lefebvre
January 22 2010 11:11AM
Interesting nugget from TSN's Bob McKenzie today as he suggests the Calgary Flames and the Chicago Blackhawks are his front-runners in the presumed Ilya Kovalchuk Sweepstakes that will develop if and when the Atlanta Thrashers decide to move the Russian winger.
McKenzie is worth paying attention to because unlike some of the less-reputable media types out there, he's careful about spouting off on any old rumour that crosses his path and, just as importantly, he makes careful note to emphasize what part of his reports comes from sources and what part consists of speculation on his part.
That said, it's a little surprising that McKenzie says so matter-of-factly that Dion Phaneuf would be merely a starting point of a larger Flames package that would be needed to land Kovalchuk. We get the fact that Phaneuf's stock has fallen a lot in the last 18 months but at the same time, Kovalchuk is playing out his contract, so his rent-a-player status will surely have an impact on the return the Thrashers will get. The reports of Kovalchuk's willingness to go to the KHL if he can't get a deal to his liking on this side of the pond only increases the risk for the acquiring team.
Phaneuf, on the other land, is locked up for four more years, although whether that's a good thing or not depends on your feelings on what direction the defenceman's career is headed. The debate about Phaneuf's value aside, the Flames' lack of a 2010 first-round pick (kiitos to Olli Jokinen) may impede any attempt to land a large fish.
They obviously need a scorer, and I'd love Kovalchuk, but I'm not so sure he's a Sutter-type, and I also doubt he'd stick around past this season.
Maybe I am terribly naive but I think Phaneuf could get them someone who better suits the Flames needs. There is no doubt Kovalchuk is a force to be recogned with but he is wanting a salary close to $10 mill a year for many years. I dont think calgary can give him that and they are essentially trading away their best trading piece for a rental player. With Kovalchuk there they still wouldnt win the cup so its simply not worth it.
Im thinking they should focus their efforts on trading Phaneuf for Booth or Horton (likely a 1 to 1 trade IMO) or Ponikarovsky and a 2nd for Phaneuf. They dont need the flashy players. I would rather good solid 2 way players with consistent offensive contributions.
If Philly didnt pretty much stock out their defensive cupboard I would suggest they try and move him there for Richards. Phaneuf + Aulie for Richards?
Maybe this is stupid but I bet if they wanted to trade him to Montreal for Cammaleri they could. It seems stupid and pointless but he works well with Iggy.
How about Phaneuf to Ottawa for Spezza. He isnt having a great year but is a good passer and I would think him and Iggy should work very well together. Spezzas stats are down because he doesnt have Heatley to pass to but he would have Iggy to pass to...
@Jean Lefebvre
I think it would be in there best interest to trade Phaneuf (if at all) for a 2 player package - a legitimate top 4 forward, and a capable d-man or prospect.
Not sure about this in particular, but off the top of my head, something along these lines...
Dion Phaneuf (& David Moss)
Travis Zajac & Paul Martin (UFA rental)
I'd also take Vinny straight up (but I'm a Vinny lover and don't care about his contract).
@Jean Lefebvre
If you're the Flames GM and Don Waddell starts the conversation with "Who could you package with Phaneuf to get Kovalchuk?" would you not hang up immediately?
In a word... YES.

Skip to comments.The Werewolf Principle [Post-war Germany Hitler regime 'deadenders']
Posted on 07/28/2003 7:58:28 AM PDT by Ragtime Cowgirl
Lessons of History, Continued: From a review of "Werewolf! The History of the National Socialist Guerrilla Movement, 1944-1946" ;
What did the Werewolf do? They sniped. They mined roads. They poured sand into the gas tanks of jeeps. (Sugar was in short supply, no doubt.) They were especially feared for the "decapitation wires" they strung across roads. They poisoned food stocks and liquor. (The Russians had the biggest problem with this.) They committed arson, though perhaps less than they are credited with: every unexplained fire or explosion associated with a military installation tended to be blamed on the Werwolf. These activities slackened off within a few months of the capitulation on May 7, though incidents were reported as late as 1947.
Goebbels especially grasped the possibility that guerrilla war could be a political process as well as a military strategy. It was largely through his influence that the Werwolf assumed something of the aspect of a terrorist organization. Where it could, it tried to prevent individuals and communities from surrendering, and it assassinated civil officials who cooperated with the Allies. Few Germans welcomed these activities, but something else that Goebbels grasped was that terror might serve where popularity was absent. By his estimate, only 10% to 15% of the German population were potential supporters for a truly revolutionary movement. His goal was to use the Werwolf to activate that potential. With the help of the radical elite, the occupiers could be provoked into savage reprisals that would win over the mass of the people to Neo-Nazism, a term that came into use in April 1945.
The Werewolves specialised in ambushes and sniping, and took the lives of many Allied and Soviet soldiers and officers -- perhaps even that of the first Soviet commandant of Berlin, General N.E. Berzarin, who was rumoured to have been waylaid in Charlottenburg during an incident in June 1945. Buildings housing Allied and Soviet staffs were favourite targets for Werewolf bombings; an explosion in the Bremen police headquarters, also in June 1945, killed five Americans and thirty-nine Germans. Techniques for harassing the occupiers were given widespread publicity through Werewolf leaflets and radio propaganda, and long after May 1945 the sabotage methods promoted by the Werewolves were still being used against the occupying powers.
Although the Werewolves originally limited themselves to guerrilla warfare with the invading armies, they soon began to undertake scorched-earth measures and vigilante actions against German `collaborators' or `defeatists'. They damaged Germany's economic infrastructure, already battered by Allied bombing and ground fighting, and tried to prevent anything of value from falling into enemy hands. Attempts to blow up factories, power plants or waterworks occasionally provoked melees between Werewolves and desperate German workers trying to save the physical basis of their employment, particularly in the Ruhr and Upper Silesia.
Several sprees of vandalism through stocks of art and antiques, stored by the Berlin Museum in a flak tower at Friedrichshain, caused millions of dollars worth of damage and cultural losses of inestimable value. In addition, vigilante attacks caused the deaths of a number of small-town mayors and, in late March 1945, a Werewolf paratroop squad assassinated the Lord Mayor of Aachen, Dr Franz Oppenhoff, probably the most prominent German statesman to have emerged in the occupied fringes over the winter of 1944-45.~~~
UPDATE : I've just read an article that Chuck Simmons wrote on this very subject on the 17th - including some of the same quotes, but also some I wasn't aware of. Worth a read.
UPDATE: And even earlier, on the 10th, Hugh Hewitt of the Weekly Standard "got it" when he wrote :
Despite what the quagmire chorus would have you believe, this isn't the first time America has tried to rebuild a war-torn, formerly fascist state.
"The bodyguard said that Saddam and his sons had remained in Baghdad in the genuine belief that they could hold the city. Only later, when they believed they had been betrayed by their commanders, did they consider an alternative. 'The resistance was not factored in before the war,' he said. 'There was a closed meeting five or six days after the war, and that is when they began to discuss the resistance.'"
I still think it is a pretty good analogy between postwar Germany and postwar Iraq, but there appears not to have been any prewar planning on the part of the Iraqis unlike the planning begun by Himmler in 1944. Not a fundamental difference, perhaps, but a difference nonetheless.
As for why we do not see this sort of thing more generally in the press, it is because journalists are historically ignorant, by and large.
Minutemen of the Third Reich ("Werewolf" guerilla movement - postwar sabotage & terror not new)
History Today (via FindArticles.com) ^ | October 2000 | Perry Biddiscombe
Posted on 07/04/2003 4:47 AM EDT by Stultis
I have a very simple question which can prove this case one way or the other: how many American troops were killed by post-war guerrilla action in Germany? As long as that question remains unanswered, this comparison will properly be dismissed as fallacious.
BTW, please do give me the "do you our research" runaround routine. I have. I called the Center for Military History (the chief federal military history agency) in Washington and they think this comparison is bogus.
This week has been a high-casualty week. The Hussein boys co-rats. We lost 13 troops in one week..as usual by cowardly means...ieds and RPG hits on convoys, and tossing a grenade at troops guarding a children's hospital. The leftovers started hitting civilian targets with greater frequency in the last few weeks - because they are very familiar with our military. You should check the CENTCOM security logs. Our troops take out far more bad guys - with the help of the Iraqi people - daily.
Some reporters mistakenly claim the war was declared over when the President declared major operations over. They know better. The eight objectives were clearly spelled out at the beginning of the war and the troops have accomplished most of them in just 4 months and 10 days. Awesome.
Of course the two wars were very different. The losers who refuse to denounce their loyalties to the monsters they served - whether Ba'athist Socialist or National Socialists - share the same future - no place in the land they once ruled. They are both isolated and defeated, desperate individuals - stripped of command and control, funds and future. They will fight to the death....'to the death' being the key.
BTW, five Americans died in Iraq in one twenty-four hour period this week and many more have died besides that. If folks want to make a comparison, they have an obligation to back it up with evidence.
Why? Because he's been against the war since the subject came up, and there will never be enough mass graves or defunct terror training camps and torture chambers to convince him to pull his head out and realize we did a good thing. For some people, hunting down terrorist scum is still not a legitimate national security aim.
Here's a thought, try doing some math. From the article:
Buildings housing Allied and Soviet staffs were favourite targets for Werewolf bombings; an explosion in the Bremen police headquarters, also in June 1945, killed five Americans and thirty-nine Germans.
Fourty-four folks is a lot of folks, almost as many as we've lost since 1 May in Iraq. That was in one Werewolf attack. You're right, the comparison may not be valid; seems Hussein's deadenders are pretty ineffective compared to Goebbel's dipsticks.
In post-war Germany, the world understood that Hitler was the bad guy. The press informed the people. The UN did not yet exist - nor did 700,000 NGOS - mostly un-American, most working toward global socialism in concert with the UN - unelected and unaccountable - along with 'allied' nations and US elected leaders and former Presidents deliberately working to weaken America on the world stage. The press knew the difference between right and wrong. Both major US political parties were working towards the same basic goal.
I simply stated the obvious - the tactics of losers today and then are very similar, and both groups have no future in the country they once ruled.
If they want to make a direct comparison, they should stop hedging.
Austin, I completely understand your objection to my numbers in post 19, but I am not playing with figures (as my Econ professor says, "figures don't lie, liars figure") just pointing out that the number of deaths occurring one month after hostilities concluded in Germany was substantial, and this was just one example. I also agree completely with what Ragtime wrote in post 20. The environment in Iraq is tougher than in post-war Germany, and our soldiers are performing superbly. It is only a matter of time before all the dead-enders meet their dead-end. Read an email from a Green Beret Colonel if you still have an open mind, which I doubt.
It is no surprise that you are having trouble adjusting to the post-9/11 era. In the fall of 1945, General Groves (director of the Manhattan Project) told a congressional committee that it would be "20 years to never" before another nation would be able to develop a nuke. The Soviet Union had one in five years. The CNO of the time said that if another nation came up with one, they would need to deliver it by ship. Some airpower advocates said blockbusters would remain the weapon of choice because they were more precise, and our enemies would know we wouldn't use the bomb in any situation less drastic than avoiding the invasion of Japan was. You might want to learn from another piece of history while we're at it: Mogadishu. We fled out of Somalia like scalded dogs after 18 deaths. On the "Smoking Gun" tape, Osama detailed how this convinced him that thousands of deaths on our home soil would defeat us completely. If we pull out of Iraq now, will we be hearing some jihadist punk talk about how he decided to detonate a dirty bomb in DC because we bugged out of Iraq with a little more than 200 total casualties? We live in the age of asymetric warfare now, and we have to take the fight to the terrorists. That will cost lives, but it will save many, many more. If you can't cope with the post-9/11 era, move to Fiji.

Constitutions as Coordinating Devices
Gillian K. Hadfield
USC Law School and Department of Economics
Barry R. Weingast
Stanford University, Department of Political Science
September 1, 2013
USC CLEO Research Paper No. C11-20
USC Law Legal Studies Paper No. 11-28
Why do successful constitutions have the attributes characteristically associated with the rule of law? Why do constitutions involve public reasoning? And, how is such a system sustained as an equilibrium? In this paper, we adapt the framework in our previous work on "what is law?" to the problem of constitutions and their enforcement (see Hadfield and Weingast 2012, 2013a,b). We present an account of constitutional law characterized by two features: a system of distinctive reasoning and process that is grounded in economic and political functionality; and a set of legal attributes such as generality, stability, publicity, clarity, non-contradictoriness, and consistency. We argue that constitutions have developed their distinctive structure, at least in part, to coordinate beliefs among diverse individuals and thus to improve the efficacy of decentralized rule enforcement mechanisms, the only way in which constitutions can be enforced. In our account, constitutions involve a specialized system of reasoning that seeks to converge on the categorization of actions as either "constitutional" – that is, acceptable – or not, the latter warranting punishment/action. We contend that a designated system of specialized reasoning helps coordinate beliefs by undertaking two tasks: reducing ambiguity and thus serving as a focal point around which people can coordinate their enforcement behavior; and providing a process of public reasoning that, among other things, extends and adapts existing rules to novel circumstances.

Great Slip On Shoes
"I wanted some new slip on sneakers since my chucks were completely destroyed. These pretty much fit the bill. I needed something that goes almost to the ankle because of my job.They're pretty comfortable. I have very narrow feet though so they're a little loose, width-wise. Length is perfect."

Awesome Tennies!
"I bought the anchor-print pair recently and loved them so much I just had to get them in the star and leopard print versions. I love the retro look, the fit, and the comfort. . . The inside of the shoe is smooth and soft, with no rough spots to rub and cause blisters. They feel like an old favorite pair right out of the box. Get these while you can!"

Sunglasses are an important tool for anglers that can't be overlooked, but often times it's hard to find a pair with the features and protection you need at an affordable price. That is until now. The Vicious Fierce Sunglasses have arrived. Vicious Fishing and Ono's Sunglasses teamed up to deliver a series of sunglasses with the premium polarized protection, and durable yet comfortable frames that anglers need.
Built with super-clear, polycarbonite, polarized lenses to cut through glare so you can see below the water's surface, they also offer 100-percent UVA/UVB protection to protect your eyes from the sun's damaging rays.
The 1.5 mm TAC (Triacetate Cellulose) lenses are also formulated for superior visual clarity, and the lens material is very rigid to retain base curves and remain stable. Also lighter in weight than PC and CR39, TAC lenses hold scratch coatings better, are shrink and heat resistant, and absorb less moisture, which creates haze.
In addition to being stylishly put together, the high-end TR-90 frames are built tough and durable for years of reliable service. Rubberization on the inside of the arms provides added grip and a rubberized nose-piece delivers maximum comfort. Available in a variety of lens colors to tackle a range of fishing conditions, the Vicious Fierce Sunglasses have exactly what you need - at the price you want. Used by several of bass fishing's top pros, including Marty Stone and Timmy Horton among others, they can also accommodate prescription lenses.

Comments: glasses are too small i'll never buy on line again the glasses are CHEAP quality waist of money wish I can return
From: Richard: Arlington , Wa.
Comments: Just got these babies in the mail and immediately took them out fishing. All i can say is wow. These glasses are beyond comfortable and the lenses are amazingly clear. You wouldn't be disappointed in these classes if they were 100 bucks, but being only 50 makes them a down right steal. They also come with a very nice hard case to keep them protected when you are not wearing them.

John F. Dee
Statements By Members
11 a.m.
Sean Casey Charlottetown, PE
Mr. Speaker, I rise here today to pay tribute to the life of John F. Dee, who passed away last Friday in Grand Falls, New Brunswick, after a tough battle with cancer. John worked for Canadian Pacific for his entire career. He was a long-time member of his local Baptist church. He enjoyed gardening, fishing and a good dose of political debate.
A Liberal to the very core, even when he was too sick to visit friends and family, he found the strength to come out to a recent Liberal event in Grand Falls to meet our leader, the member for Toronto Centre, to show his unwavering support for the Liberal Party of Canada. He said he needed to "speak out with [his] dying body" that what has been happening in this country is intolerable and needed to change, and that we are the party to be that change.
Our thoughts and prayers are with John's wife Shirley, his sons Gary and Wayne, daughters Sandra, Linda and Barbara, and their family during this difficult time.
May he rest in peace.
St. Patrick's Day
Statements By Members
11 a.m.
James Rajotte Edmonton—Leduc, AB
Mr. Speaker, tomorrow the Irish diaspora will celebrate St. Patrick's Day.
The impact of the Irish in Canada is well known. The most famous Irish Canadian, of course, is a father of Confederation, Thomas D'Arcy McGee, one of the greatest orators and men of letters in Canadian politics. His life, unfortunately, ended far too soon by assassination not far from his political home, the House of Commons.
Most Irish came to Canada during the great famine. There are many memorials in Canada commemorating this event. At Grosse Île, Quebec is in fact the largest famine grave site outside of Ireland. Over 5,000 Irish graves are there, as well as the graves of those selfless French Canadian nurses, doctors and others who welcomed and cared for the Irish newcomers as if they were their own brothers and sisters. It is one of the most poignant places in Canada.
However, the Irish story in Canada continues with pride and joy. They continue to come to Canada from the Emerald Isle to work, to study, and many to stay and call Canada their home.
I would like to recognize all of the contributions of the millions of Canadians with Irish heritage and welcome all other Canadians to celebrate with us.
Happy Saint Patrick's Day.
Canada Post

Sana Hassainia Verchères—Les Patriotes, QC
Mr. Speaker, I want to draw the attention of this House and of the minister responsible for Canada Post to the fact that 10,000 people from Verchères—Les Patriotes will no longer have access to postal service effective March 26. Autoroute 20 separates Domaine des Hauts-Bois from the rest of the town of Sainte-Julie, and the only road linking the two is a viaduct that is being demolished in a little over a week.
Domaine des Hauts-Bois's only postal outlet has been closed since March 5. The town's 10,000 residents therefore no longer have any postal services since the other points of service in Sainte-Julie will no longer be accessible to them and especially to the countless people who do not have a car. Many seniors live in this area, and most of them have a hard time getting around. It is unbelievable that they are being denied such a service.
Last June, the government declared that postal service was so important to the economy that it was worth attacking the workers' constitutional rights in order to protect it. It is time for the government to be consistent for once and to take all the necessary measures in order to provide permanent postal service in Domaine des Hauts-Bois.
The Hastings Helpers

Rick Norlock Northumberland—Quinte West, ON
Mr. Speaker, Margaret Mead once said, "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has". No community or its people understand the value of these words more than the hard-working people of the village of Hastings in Northumberland—Quinte West.
Faced with the difficult task of dealing with a bridge closure in their community, the good folks of Hastings have worked together to establish the Hastings Helpers group. The Hastings Helpers is a grassroots community organization launched by resident Tonya McColl-Smith, to develop ways of assisting community members affected by the closure of the swing bridge.
During difficult times, co-operation and optimism are vital to the continued prosperity of any community. I would like to personally thank the Hastings Helpers for their dedication to their fellow citizens and I invite all members of the House to join me in saluting the good people of Hastings and the Hastings Helpers as they move forward in these challenging times.

Pierre Poilievre Nepean—Carleton, ON
Mr. Speaker, later this year, Jamaica will celebrate its 50th anniversary of independence. On August 6, 1962, Jamaica became the first British colony in the Caribbean to gain full independence. This significant achievement became an inspiration to other island colonies of the region.
Later this month, cities across Canada, including Toronto, Ottawa and Montreal, will be hosting Jamaica 50 festivities led by members of the Jamaican community. These celebrations will not only reinforce the Jamaican diaspora's pride in its heritage but also provide a timely opportunity for Jamaican people to renew their commitment to their Canadian home.
Next week on March 22, Her Excellency Sheila Sealy Monteith, High Commissioner for Jamaica to Canada, will be at the government conference centre to begin the festivities celebrating all that Jamaica has achieved in the last half-century.
Please join Senator Meredith and me as we welcome this important milestone and celebrate the goodwill and warm ties that bind Jamaica and Canada.
New Democratic Party of Canada

Dan Harris Scarborough Southwest, ON
Mr. Speaker, I rise on this last sitting day of the House before change comes to Ottawa. Next Monday, we hope to add the talented voice of Craig Scott to our caucus to continue Jack's work in Toronto—Danforth.
That is not all. New Democrats will also gather together in Toronto to pay tribute to Jack Layton, who taught us all that we can make a difference and do so with honour and integrity.
Then we will elect our new leader who will come back to lead a caucus that is stronger and more united than ever. That is because of the humble strength of our current leader who was given the impossible task of leading us through this difficult time. She stepped up and I applaud her for the job she has done.
Thank you, Nycole, for all your work as our leader. I also want to thank you on behalf of our caucus, our party and all Canadians and Quebeckers who want the best for their families.
Co-op Week
Statements By Members
11:10 a.m.
Ed Holder London West, ON
Mr. Speaker, this week we celebrate Co-op Week in Canada, which honours the best in co-operative education. We recognize the critical importance of the role colleges and universities play, as they celebrate outstanding co-op students, employers and staff members. This is our time to honour co-operative education in Canada.
We recognize employers and students who reflect the best in co-operative education. This select group of highly trained individuals receives experience in a work-integrated environment and enters the workforce with essential employment skills. Employers prize these graduates because they use them immediately upon hiring them, and in permanent positions. Co-op practitioners and institutions give passionately of their time and energy to ensure that opportunities exist for students seeking co-op work terms. We must thank employers who provide work-integrated experiences for students in partnership with educational institutions.
Let me add the thanks of this House to the dedicated institutions, employers, students and co-op staff. Canada's strong co-operative education system is recognized throughout the world because of that amazing commitment. Let me add my personal acknowledgement to Londoner, Kirk Patterson, chair of Co-op Week for Canada, for his leadership.
Enabling Accessibility Fund
Statements By Members
11:10 a.m.
Mike Sullivan York South—Weston, ON
Mr. Speaker, it is hard enough for any person to get through life in Canada if he or she has a disability. Statistics Canada says there are nearly 3 million Canadians with disabilities.
The enabling accessibility fund was created to improve accessibility and reduce barriers for these people. Since 2008, the fund has gone through five projects calls and approved 644 projects worth $67 million.
One would think that would be good news for Canadians with disabilities. However, it is only true if one lives in a Conservative riding. Data released by HRSDC reveal that nearly 85% of this fund went to Conservative-held ridings. Conservatives represent barely half of Canada's population. This is clearly unfair: it discriminates against people with disabilities living in opposition-held ridings. It is an example of shameful pork-barrelling by a party that ran against such odious behaviour.
To restore credibility, the government must put into place an unbiased, non-political evaluation process, to ensure that all Canadians with disabilities have fair access to this fund. That is what Canadians expect of their government.
Montfort Hospital
Statements By Members
11:10 a.m.
Royal Galipeau Ottawa—Orléans, ON
Mr. Speaker, next Thursday will mark the 15th anniversary of the S.O.S. Montfort rally. The support for the Montfort Hospital is a testament to the strength and determination of the Franco-Ontarian society to which I belong. The commitment of $200 million over 20 years made by this government in June 2006 has doubled the scope of the hospital's services.
Too often, the suggestion by an Ontario commission to close the hospital is politicized, and demagogues blame a former provincial premier. Yet this situation never would have occurred if the federal government of the day had not made drastic cuts to health care transfers.
When federal health care transfers were reduced from 50 to 14 cents of every dollar, the provincial government was forced to close 44 hospitals, including Ottawa's Riverside and Grace Hospitals, and merge 14 others.
Since then, this federal government had made major strides in this area. It now provides 30 cents of every dollar spent on provincial health care, and counting.
Canadian Hunger Foundation
Statements By Members
11:10 a.m.
Mauril Bélanger Ottawa—Vanier, ON
Mr. Speaker, founded by the Hon. Mitchell Sharp, the Canadian Hunger Foundation, CHF, is now celebrating 50 years of service. CHF works with numerous partners in 52 countries around the world to break the cycle of poverty.
The organization changes lives and creates solutions to combat the effects of drought, disease, and devastating poverty in rural communities. Its approach is grounded in sustainability. It respects and empowers the local population as architects of their own development in building peace in post-conflict areas; in reconstructing the lives of those struck by disaster; in empowering women; and in protecting the environment.
I was recently given the opportunity to visit one of the projects managed by CHF in South Sudan and was impressed by the positive impact of peace-building efforts and the success of a micro-food processing enterprise led by women.
I congratulate the staff of CHF for their passion and devotion and thank the thousands of Canadians who contribute annually to CHF. Their generosity is truly helpful.
Member for Papineau
Statements By Members
March 16th, 2012 / 11:10 a.m.
Daryl Kramp Prince Edward—Hastings, ON
Mr. Speaker, surely it comes as no surprise that earlier this week the Liberal member for Papineau expressed his support for an NDP-Liberal coalition.
He said:
—if by 2015, with the election approaching, and neither party has got our act together enough to shine and to be the obvious alternative, then there will be a lot of pressure for us to start looking at that.
Really, is this a platform that he will advocate during the Liberal leadership race? Or, will he be taking this plan to the new NDP leader later this month?
It is clear that while our Conservative government has focused and will continue to focus on Canadians' top priority, jobs and economic growth, the Liberal member is already looking at coalition plans in order to protect his Papineau seat from challengers in the next election.
Incidentally, I wonder whom he is supporting for the NDP leadership.

Mylène Freeman Argenteuil—Papineau—Mirabel, QC
Mr. Speaker, the government continues to ignore the real causes of elder abuse. Although it launched an awareness campaign in 2009 about such abuse, the government refuses to take real action to help seniors. That is unacceptable. Our seniors built this country and made us who we are today. We owe them a great debt.
All the experts agree: seniors need their independence and better living conditions, meaning more home care and affordable housing. Unfortunately, this government would rather build prisons than look after those seniors most vulnerable to abuse. Before it is too late, this government must develop a concrete strategy to ensure that all seniors are safe. That is what the NDP has done.
Seal Hunt
Statements By Members
11:15 a.m.
Jacques Gourde Lotbinière—Chutes-de-la-Chaudière, QC
Mr. Speaker, the documentary The Hidden Faces of the Seal Hunt won the audience award at the sustainable hunt and biodiversity film festival in Paris last week.
Filmmaker Raoul Jomphe attended the festival to accept the award, together with Denis Longuépée, president of the Magdalen Islands Sealers Association, two staunch supporters of this viable and humane hunt.
Through footage of the hunt as well as interviews, the documentary shows the positive impact of the sealing industry on small coastal communities, where sealers can earn up to 35% of their annual income from the hunt. The film also explores conservation, biodiversity and animal welfare.
Our government continues to make the case for this type of economic activity, which is important to many coastal communities. I would like to congratulate Mr. Jomphe on winning this award. The seal hunt will be under way soon, and I wish everyone a successful hunt.
41st General Election
Oral Questions
11:15 a.m.
Joe Comartin Windsor—Tecumseh, ON
Mr. Speaker, yesterday the Chief Electoral Officer, Marc Mayrand, made public that he would like to make a presentation to the procedure and House affairs committee. He wants to update the House, through the committee, as to the status of the voter fraud investigation his office is conducting.
Will the government agree to let Mr. Mayrand appear before the committee? Will it commit that the hearing for Mr. Mayrand will be done in public, not in camera?
41st General Election
Oral Questions
11:15 a.m.
Peter Van Loan Leader of the Government in the House of Commons
Mr. Speaker, as the opposition House leader well knows, these are questions that are properly asked at the committee, of the committee. In our House of Commons, the committees are masters of their own process. They make the decisions about which witnesses they will call. I expect they will deal with that matter when we return after the constituency week.

Next Chapter is out
Lmao, Komamura got owned by that little girl. Hmn... I would like to be really excited about this match ups but we don't have any background on these new opponents. We don't even know the range of their power like Kubo did with the espadas.
Lol this was so early.... typical bleach matchups... now its confirmed that there are a lot of stern Ritters, not only 7... maybe more than 20 more or less... if they base it by the letters(stern Ritter U, who looks like the spawn of tousen and afro samurai lols:), Stern RItter F = The ring movie girl, Stern Ritter E), there are 26 letters in the english alphabet, if kubo base it on these then there are 26 stern Ritter excluding or including buckbeard <--- i bet this guy is Stern Ritter A...lols, if the letters are base on A the strongest and Z the weakest then rose is Ok with tousen/afro samurai looking dude:), too bad for kuma and byakuya/renji... the face E and F<--just assumptions:) though hehe
You know whenever Byakuya starts to fight shit gets serious. Good chapter though.
Time too get bloody! Let the True fights begin!
What's funny here are the names; Nanana, nananananana, nanananana. Does this guy have bling2x on his teeth? and seriously the gothic girl or guy looks creepy as hell. The scene were the shinigamis are stabbed by her/his needles floats in mid air and screams, its right out of a horror flick movies
Damn, just a chapter to cut the matchups...ahh well, still pretty nice. But @#*()*#(# REnji! You can't do crap and you're a VC!!! Come on man, bring back that resolve and ferociousness we saw you have at the beginning of the series....also, damn Kira dying. Hopefully Rose beats down some ass.
Classic Bleach "vs." chaper.
Prepare for plot stagnation in 3...2...1...
as they started with the vizard captain they should of just focused it on him this chapter was excited to see him then ohh showing me other match ups when they just built the 1st one to the extent he was pulling out his shikai
We didn't see Shinji, Kensei or Yamaji. The chapter was too fast paced and kinda just threw all the match ups out there... meh.
Hmmm, I was right only with Kyouraku's Vs's :p.
So, Bambie is using some kind of whip weapon and the thorn guy has his weapon hidden within that flame/light/smoke behind him ?
I guess he meant this:
So yes, Renji is right, every Star Knight should posses this ability.

Color Was Disappointing
"These are definitely not as light and bright in color as they appear to be online. I was expecting a nice, cheerful coral color, but when they arrived, the color was quite drab.

"Coral color was very pretty. Fit true to size. Wedge height is sexy but casual (and wearable!) I placed a thin jelly pad for open toed heels which made this shoe a little more comfy for longer wear days and outings. Sprayed a protection spray on them for fear the wedge area would show dirt.

Got my car fixed quick and efficiently. Very good service and a great guy!
Paul has a vast knowledge regarding Mercedes as a brand. He was able to give me an understanding into what are the parts that needed changing on my car. Would recommend!
Excellent service and knowledge of the car. Highly recommended
Great informative technician, will use again
The mechanic returned call promptly and arrived late on a sunday night. He could not be sure of exactly what was wrong, and said he would have to go step by step on the suspension. He also looked around the engine and come up with three other problems. He said he would get back to me with a quote and asked for his £80 in cash. He told me he only took cash. He did tell me he was very sucessful and had spent £1.4m on a wonderful house near peterborough and used expletives to describe certain staff at the locla mercedes dealer. Next day I got a text saying he had been taken in to hospital and would be in touch later. I did not get a firm diagnostic of the problem but he suggested the parts fiited by local guy a few weeks before were not OEM and might need replacing. I was left feeling I had been heavily sold to.
Fixed my front driver side headlight and passenger side bulb. I was very impressed with the speed and excellent customer service provided. I would recommend and I would use again.
Job done quickly as always, top guys
Wonderful and honest and reability
All good!
Very good service.
One star because you did not write the report I asked and you don't respond to my messages.
Samet has been very professional and has fixed the problem very quickly and at the right price. Will use his services again. Thanks
nice guys, found my problem.
Very professional and quick service
We hadn't agreed on an exact tiime for my MOT because I had a prior appointment but when I did turn up they were fast and efficient. I couldn't have asked for more to be honest.
The service was fine, the communication could have been better.

G20 GDP growth slows to +0.7% in the fourth quarter of 2011
Quarterly gross domestic product (GDP) growth in the G20 slowed to +0.7% in the fourth quarter of 2011, compared with +0.9% in the third quarter, according to provisional results from this first ever release of the G20 GDP aggregate. In 2011 as a whole, G20 GDP grew by 2.8%, a marked deceleration compared with the +5.0% growth recorded in 2010.
The G20 GDP quaterly in volume terms
The G20 GDP aggregate masks diverging patterns among the world's largest economies.
In the United States, GDP growth increased to +0.7% in the fourth quarter of 2011, compared with +0.5% in the third quarter. In India and Indonesia growth increased strongly, but in China it slowed to +2.0%, compared with +2.3% in the third quarter. In Japan, economic growth decreased to -0.2%, following the strong rebound to +1.7% in the third quarter. GDP growth was -0.3% in both the European Union and the euro area in the fourth quarter of 2011, the first negative growth since the second quarter of 2009.
Today's release of the G20 GDP aggregate marks the first release of a G20 aggregate in the context of the implementation of the Data Gaps Initiative – a set of 20 recommendations on the further enhancement of statistics as agreed by the G20 finance ministers and central bank governors. The process is coordinated by the Inter-Agency Group on Economic and Financial Statistics (IAG), which comprises the International Monetary Fund (chair), the Bank for International Settlements, the European Central Bank, Eurostat, the OECD, the United Nations and the World Bank. The dissemination of the G20 GDP aggregate demonstrates cooperation between the agencies and progress in the Data Gaps Initiative and provides a timely measure of economic growth for the G20. In future the G20 aggregate will become part of a new regular OECD quarterly press release on economic growth at around 70 days after the reference quarter.

Too soft and too wide
"They are cute shoes. However, I found them to run too wide for my narrow feet and the they are so soft that they feel more like a house slipper instead of a shoe to be worn to work."

"Cute, but it did remind me of a little girls shoe because the whole shoe is a very shiny patent leather. I also ordered a half size smaller due to other reviews stating it ran big, but it was too small. I recommend ordering your normal size. I ended up returning them."

SO cute!!
"I ordered these because I wanted a cute, feminine but comfy black flat to dress up my jeans or wear with a nice dress. When I first opened the box, they looked like they would be too long, but after trying them on, they dont fall of my feet, despite the fact that they are ever so slightly long. If you are in-between sizes, I would probably size down. I love them and I can't wait to wear them out! I might have to order them in other colors as well :-]"
