  Arsenal moved clear of Chelsea in the Reserve League South table with a hard-fought 1-0 win at Griffin Park on Monday night. Kieran Gibbs, returning from injury, scored the only goal of the game to make it three wins out of five for the young Gunners. This was Arsenal's second game in six days so Neil Banfield called on the first-team experience of Denilson, Justin Hoyte and also Alex Song as the Frenchman continued his recovery from an calf injury. It was ultimately this that proved the decisive factor. Both teams started tentatively, but it was Arsenal who got the earliest sniff of goal on six minutes. Nacer Barazite fed Rui Fonte but the striker's shot from the corner of the box lacked venom and was saved at the keeper's near post. With 12 minutes gone the Gunners had another sight of goal. Abu Ogogo, playing in an advanced role in midfield dispossessed Patrick van Aanholt, and fed Rui Fonte. Fonte returned the favour and when Ogogo cut in from t

The struggle for Iraq's oil flares up as Kurds open doors to foreign investors.At the end of a rough dirt track, on a sun-baked hillock once the domain of scorpions and snakes, squats an odd settlement of caravans, generators and drilling rigs that is at the heart of the battle for Iraq's oil."Welcome to Texas, Kurdistan," said Karim Ali, as his taxi bounced to the gates of the Taq Taq oilfields, on the undulating plains of Koi Sanjaq, some 80 miles south-east of Irbil.

The presence of "foreigners" here at Taq Taq merely cemented his certainty.With the Bush administration pressing the Iraqi government to pass a new hydrocarbons law, there are widely voiced assumptions that it will bulldoz

Economic planners worry that the export-fueled flood of cash surging through China's economy is driving dangerously fast investment in stocks, real estate and other assets.The money-supply surge strains the central bank's ability to contain pressure for prices to rise. The bank, China's equivalent of the U.S. Federal Reserve, drains billions of dollars a month from the economy through bond sales, piling up reserves that have topped $1.3 trillion. Still, deposits at Chinese commercial banks top $4 trillion, and are growing by tens of billions of dollars a month, leaving plenty of money for new lending.

Total signed a long-awaited deal Friday to develop the giant Shtokman gas field with Gazprom that will allow it to book part of the Arctic field's lucrative reserves. Total CEO Christophe de Margerie and Gazprom deputy CEO Alexander Ananenkov signed a 25-year deal to develop the first phase of Shtokman, a field set to supply huge amounts of gas to Europe and North America when it comes on line within the next decade. Gazprom CEO Alexei Miller, who remains ill with a kidney ailment, did not attend the signing at Gazprom headquarters, but announced the surprise deal in a statement Thursday. Total, which had been seeking entry into Shtokman for years, will take a 25 percent stake in the field's operating company. Gazprom has reserved the right to sell a further 24 percent to one or two of the companies still hoping to join the project, but will maintain a 51 percent controlling stake. It will also hold full control of license holder Sevmorneftegaz and "be the owner of the whole amount o

Total has all but secured reserves from Gazprom’s giant Shtokman gas field in the eastern Barents Sea, after a signing ceremony in Moscow Friday clinched a 25-year development deal, with options. “It's a technicality, but yes, we will be able to book reserves,” Reuters quoted Total boss Christophe de Margerie as saying. Gazprom and Total will set up a “special purpose vehicle” to organize the design, financing, construction and operation of the Shtokman Phase 1 infrastructure. The entity will own Shtokman infrastructure for 25 years from field commissioning. Once Phase 1 is over, Total will transfer its 25 percent share in the project company to Gazprom, ostensibly in return for reserves. Gazprom owns 100 percent of Shtokman license holder OOO Sevmorneftegaz and will have sole marketing rights to gas in the 3.7-trillion-cubic-metre field.

Vietnam has seen record increases in foreign currency reserves in the first half of 2007, due to rising indirect investment in the stock market and a stabilised domestic exchange rate.State Bank governor Le Duc Thuy said the increases in foreign currency reserves had tripled those of 2006 in the first five months of this year.“The central bank of Vietnam will continue to invest in foreign currencies in the next few months to meet the target level equal to 20 weeks of imports,” said Thuy.According to the IMF, Vietnam’s total foreign currency reserves were equal to 12 weeks of imports at the end of last year, reaching the minimum international standard for foreign currency reserves.The reserve increase helps stabilise the exchange rate between the Vietnamese dong and the US dollar with a fluctuation rate of around one per cent by the end of this year. While the Vietnamese dong fell against the US dollar at the end of 2006 and in the beginning of this year, the interbank nominal eff

From BloombergApril 29 (Bloomberg) -- China ordered banks to set aside more money as reserves for the seventh time in 11 months to try to prevent an accelerating economy from overheating.Lenders must put aside 11 percent of deposits starting May 15, up from 10.5 percent, the central bank said on its Web site.Premier Wen Jiabao is trying to stop a flood of cash from an export boom from fueling wasteful investment, inflation and a stock market bubble.

From Inside Bay AreaECONOMISTS DON'T LIKE to admit to being stunned by anything, even in unpredictable Asia. UBSAG's Jonathan Anderson couldn't seem to help himself.The cause of the Hong Kong-based economist's dismay: China's currency reserves rose $1 million a minute in the first quarter."This is more than just a jump," Anderson said. "The magnitude and the abruptness of this acceleration are simply stunning."After average reserve growth of about $20 billion a month in 2006, February and March this year had increases of almost $50 billion — and $136 billion for the quarter. The total is now $1.2 trillion. "Just when we had convinced ourselves that China's 2007 releases had nothing left to shock us, the first quarter FX reserve numbers came in," Anderson said.While all this raises many questions, three are probably foremost on investors' minds. One, why are reserves increasing so fast? Two, what in the world will China do with that money? Three, can China continue avoiding big

The Indonesian foreign exchange reserves have risen significantly over the last three weeks to set a new record, getting very close to the full year target of 51 billion US dollars, a central bank official said Friday. The international reserves were recorded at 49.4 billion dollars this week against 47.2 billion in the end of March, Bank Indonesia deputy governor Aslim Tadjuddin told reporters here.

MySpace just updated its Terms of Service with the following sentence, which wasn't included in the previous version: "MySpace expressly reserves the right to remove your profile and/or restrict, suspend, or terminate your access to any part of MySpace Services if MySpace determines, in its sole discretion, that you pose a threat to MySpace and/or its Users." The previous version, however, had included the text "restrict, suspend, or terminate your access to all or any part of the MySpace Services at any time, for any or no reason, with or without prior notice, and without liability," but the newly-updated version is a lot stronger. There's no word as of yet as to what constitutes an "unacceptable" MySpace user or profile. [via Wired]

Iraq has oil reserves that are estimated at over 300 billion barrels, making the country the world leader in this sphere, the Iraqi oil minister said Saturday. In his interview with the Lebanese Al Mashrik newspaper, Hussain al-Shahristani did not specify, though, whether this figure referred to confirmed oil reserves or to a general estimate. According to official data, Iraq's confirmed oil

Australia, who claims 42 per cent of the Antarctic landmass covering 5.9 million square kilometres, might have difficulties "protecting" their property from interlopers should the world have a shortage of natural resources in the not so distant future, Herald Sun reported. Although never universally recognised, nobody has ever disputed Australia's claim. But Antarctica possesses vast mineral

After the rather doom and gloom piece the last entry, I found this gem of an article in MEN (Manchester Evening News). It gives a rather nice round up of the players who are on loan. It's probably a puff piece, but still a good read for those of us who are unable to follow the progress of our future stars.Worthy mention of Johnny Evans, Giuseppi Rossi, Ben Foster and Lee Martin, who I think are all in contention of breaking the first team based on what limited footage I've caught on them the last couple of years.

Quite frankly, I don't know why I bothered to even stay up to watch this game. I'm not too sure why I bother with the reserve games at all. I've caught the last couple of reserve games as well and quite honestly I don't think we're going to promote anyone from the youth squads for sometime.To be fair, half the actual reserve squad has been out on loan, so we're playing mostly the under-18s. Still the quality just isn't there. Last week we got burnt 3-0 by a pretty strong Sheffield United side. Today we edged out a strong Everton side 1-0. With the exception of Chris Eagles, who is already in the first team, no one stood out.You can understand the frustration Brian McClair feels running the academy. I got this link in my mail yesterday and found it to be a bloody good read. It's from a source I seldom visit, The Herald (Scotland). It's recommended reading.

Xiou Xioachuan, Chinese central bank governor, apparently read Lauriston Letter's fun things to do with a Trillion in Reserves and got the message. He was humiliated by the fun that Lauriston poked. Xioachaun now says the Chinese government will stop accumulating foreign reserves!!! That could surely mean trouble for the dollar.

Did you know China has more than $1 trillion in foreign currency reserves after posting huge trade surpluses year after year !! Add to that China's reserves is growing at $20 billion every month !! For China, that is simply spectacular, for U.S. well...sigh*So what does China do with the 1$ trillion ? Right now they have invested approximately 75% in low-yielding U.S. Treasury securities and other dollar-denominated assets. The rest in euros and a small amount in yen. Returns on this investment has been less than 3% last year. Not quite exciting. But that is going to change....Need a ChangeChina now plans to make better use of their reserves and reap in more profits. One way to do that is create an investment company, and that is exactly what they are upto. China will soon create one of the world's largest investment funds, with diversification in global stocks, bonds and commodities markets. It is estimated that they will allocate somewhere between $200 to $400 billion to this new

The Law Society of Upper Canada (LSUC) is using its cash reserves for paralegal regulation, to begin the intial startup process. The startup budget is designed to cover the costs of paralegal regulation through early 2008, when actual numbers of paralegal licenses are known and a budget outlining regular operating costs will be part of the LSUC's annual budget.The first paralegal licenses will be granted in early 2008, and paralegals who are eligible can apply for grandparent status from May until October of this year.

The Indonesian government has claimed exploration activities in 2006 had found 22 new oil wells with combined reserves of 1.2 billion barrels, local media reported Wednesday. The explorations also found proven gas reserves of 1.4 trillion cubic feet in ten wells, reported leading economic daily Bisnis Indonesia, quoting an official as saying. The discovery will help the government overcome falling output due to natural depletion, said Kardaya Warnika, head of the Upstream Oil and Gas Business Executive Body (BP Migas). The country's oil production averaged 1.01 million barrels per day in 2006 from 1,046 well fields. Production is targeted at 1.05 million barrels per day in 2007 from 878 existing fields and 161 new fields, he said.

ALL STAR RESERVES ANNOUNCED!The NBA All Star games reserves have been announced for both conferences and I want to break down the ones that interest me.First, in the Eastern conference. What first jumps out at me is why wasn't there a message in big print on the ballots saying, "DON'T VOTE FOR ANYONE FROM THE ATLANTIC, THEY ARE HORRID TEAMS." I know the game is to produce an exciting up the court I am going to score more than you kinda game, but the Atlantic is the worst division ever in basketball this season in my opinion. The players who made it from the Atlantic are VC and JKidd. I don't want to take anything away from these players and their achievements this year, because let's face it, if you are in that division right now there is one record over 500. No one from those teams should make it, with one exception though, Bosh. The reason Bosh is allowed is because his team has made improvements this year and he is a big factor in leading them into an elite state.Now to the con
