Propaganda is War by Other MeansBy Ted BelmanThere are those who embrace conspiracy theories of a government plan behind major attacks like 9-11 and Pearl Harbor, to lead us into war. As outlandish such theories appear to some, many embrace them because they believe that the government always manipulates public opinion to accept intended actions which the people would otherwise reject. When a government intends a war of aggression, it must first inculcate hatred of the indented victim. This is done through propaganda which follows the following principles; 1) Select a target to be hated. Personalize it. Focus attention on it. 2) Keep messages on target. Avoid conflicting messages. 3) Attach labels and employ narratives causing the object of the hatred to be ridiculed, scorned and feared. 4) Have appropriate messengers deliver the messages. Thus a liberal delivers the message to a liberal and a Republican to Republicans and so on. 5) Keep hidden the communications of messages and the compensation between propaganda directors, media managers and content producers. Keep it secret. 7) Employ substantial numbers of creators of media content and media managers to ensure propaganda is script, timely and plentiful. 8) Make certain that the public believes that the creators and managers are independent. 9) Make few points and repeat them incessantly. 10) Have public personalities express out-loud contempt, scorn and fear of the target of hatred in order to render such expressions socially acceptable and to crystallize attitudes of hatred which otherwise would be fleeting. These same principles apply when any group or entity want to shape public opinion to achieve its ends. They do their best to control the message and succeed to varying degrees. While the manipulation of public opinion requires a conspiracy to accomplish, the conspirators are quick to debunk and mock any suggestion of conspiracy. Sarah Palin has been the target of such attacks since she burst on the scene, but in her case, it came from two separate groups, each with their own agenda. They shared the goal of preventing her election but for different reasons. As a result all kinds of people, politicos, pundits, media outlets and public figures all piled on. So effective was it, that few dared defend her. They called her all kinds of names, described her as dumb, out for the money or celebrity, unserious and unelectable. They hid her sterling record and distorted her words and ignored her policies. Was this by chance or coordination? Another example of these techniques was their use in transforming America. After George W. Bush won a second term in a contentious election, the left got mobilized. They spend the next four years demonizing him, e.g. "Bush lied people died." But that wasn't enough to transform America. They had to change her values. The Left, lead by George Soros, set about to discredit Israel and American support for her. To do this it had to discredit the powerful AIPAC. First came the indictment of Steve Rosen and Keith Weissman of AIPAC in 2005 for espionage related charges. A few years later, Daniel Pipes reported on why he and his Board ignored the criminal charges and decided to hire Rosen. He wrote "Our study of the government's case convinced us of its injustice, shoddiness, arbitrariness, hollowness, and futility." These charges were ultimately dropped years after they served their purpose. Then, Meirsheimer and Walt published The Israel Lobby which made the case against AIPAC and for Israel being a liability to the US rather than an asset. This was followed up with the creation of J-Street and the redefinition by it and by the NYT of what being pro-Israel meant. I laid this out in my April 2010 article, Israel is a net asset to the U.S. Of course to capitalize on all this conditioning they had Barack Hussein Obama waiting in the wings to take over. These things don't happen by happenstance or because most journalists are liberal, but due to a coordinated effort to get everybody on board. The hallmark of Obama's presidency was his embrace of Islam and rejection of Israel. Examples abound. No lie was too big to propagate. His Cairo Speech as a prime example. And then he piled it on so thick, you could gag. Of course he was supported by the mainstream media and his administration all of whom ignored reality and embraced fantasy. But the prime example of propaganda at work is what it has done to demonize and delegitimize Israel. The Koran itself demonizes the Jews and calls for their destruction or at least dhimmitude. But it was not until the twentieth century that the Muslim world escalated their war against the Jews and a Jewish state both before and after Israel declared its independence. Jihad means struggle. It was not by accidence that Hitler called his book "Mein Kampf" or "My Struggle." In it, he wrote "Propaganda was needed that could fire man's spirits till they were ready to die." He believed that he had to motivate Germans to war. Hitler went full bore against the Jews beginning in the mid thirties and ending with his death in 1945. He enlisted the services of his friend, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, Haj Amin al-Husaini, to stir up the Arabs to kill the Jews and harass the Brits. He took his themes from the Koran [1] In 1975 the UNGA passed the infamous "Zionism is Racism" resolution. It was finally rescinded in 1979 due the vigorous efforts of the US. Last year it was decided to hold Durban III in New York the day before the UN opens. Fiamma Nirenstein was furious and wrote, And now Anne Bayesfsky calls Durban III "the celebration of a notorious prescription for intolerance, closely linked to Islamic extremism." She advises UNWATCH reports In this the UN was not acting alone. Bat Yeor, in her book Eurabia, noted that since President Charles de Gaulle changed French policy from pro-Israel to anti-Israel in 1967, France has led in promoting hatred of Israel within the framework of advancing a partnership between Europe and the Arab Middle East. An egregious example is the "al Dura Affaire." Charles Enderlin, head of France 2's Middle East Bureau, reported the story which was based on a film provided by a Palestinian cameraman. Phillippe Karsenty called it a hoax and for good reason. He had the facts and arguments to prove it. Enderlin sued him for defamation and lost. Throughout it all, the French Government stood by Enderlin and no French media supported Karsenty. For the last ten years, the BBC has been decidedly anti-Israel in its reporting. Robert Aiken in his book, Can We Trust the BBC?, exposes the biases of the BBC and quotes some officials who believed the BBC is directed by the Foreign Office. Of course the Foreign Office has been anti-Israel for 80 years. At Durban I, it wasn't enough to simply pass a resolution singling out Israel. NGO's in attendance pledged themselves to action in the cause of defaming and deligitimating Israel. The NGOs do their part by promoting the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) Movement while Muslim Student Association promotes Israel Apartheid Week. They are joined by academics who give the slanders an aura of respectability. They all call openly for the destruction of Israel rather than the two- state solution. Assisting in this work are many NGO's financed by European countries including Britain and France and financed by George Soros. US, Britain, France and Germany coordinate their positions on all matters pertaining to the peace process, They also coordinate their message. As a case in point they each threatened Israel with dire consequences if she didn't accept Obama's framework for negotiations. This war against Israel is relentless Ted Belman is a retired lawyer and editor of Israpundit. He made aliya in 2009 and now lives in Jerusalem |

Media / Productnieuws / Atlas Copco Hurricane introduces new B4-41/900 booster with Tier 4i solution.
Atlas Copco Hurricane introduces new B4-41/900 booster with Tier 4i solution.
To provide our customers with a solution for the new EPA Non road Regulation Tier 4A emission standard, Atlas Copco introduces the newly designed B4-41/900 with a Cummins QSB4 engine.
Atlas Copco Hurricane has taken advantage of the regulations challenge to introduce the B4-41/900 booster model using the same proven design concept as the B7-41/1000 booster. Used primarily in drilling applications,
the B4-41/900 showcases several improvements that provide additional flexibility for the customer.
The B4-41/900 features a flat base frame, single point lifting and an optional bolt on protection frame. Its small footprint (97.5"L x 70"W x 67.25"H) with oversized forklift pockets in the base frame, allows for easy maneuverability.
A pre-cooler bypass system has been incorporated into the design for cold weather operation.
The success of the new B7-41 design concept and the new regulations were the ideal opportunity to also adapt the B4-41 to the new philosophy and extend our booster portfolio says Lawrence Van der Veeken, Product manager Boosters.

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Statistics from past Super Bowls suggest the outcome of the game might predict how the stock market will perform. But Creighton University finance professor Bob Johnson says the connection between the Super Bowl and the stock market is bogus. The so-called Super Bowl indicator supposedly predicts the stock market will finish the year higher than it started whenever a team from the original NFL wins. If a team from the former AFL, which became the AFC, wins, the market will be lower. Johnson says the indicator appears to work 76 percent of the time since the first Super Bowl. But he says there's no real connection between the two. So Johnson says no one should worry about their investments if the Baltimore Ravens beat the San Francisco 49ers this Sunday.

Banks were closing in on a $10 billion foreclosure-abuse settlement with regulators that could be announced as soon as Monday, according to people familiar with the talks.
The settlement was nearly complete Sunday afternoon, the people said, after the Federal Reserve backed down on a demand for more compensation for consumers and other changes to the pact.
Bankers threatened to walk away from the deal if the Fed's demand for an additional $300 million was included, a person briefed on the talks said.
In 2011, 14 banks were cited for foreclosure abuses by the Fed and Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. Although the exact number was uncertain, most of the 14 banks cited for improper foreclosure practices were expected to sign onto the deal, the people said.
The OCC spent several weeks negotiating the agreement, and Fed officials were only recently brought into the negotiations. Spokesman for the Fed and OCC declined to comment.
The banks are eager to complete the settlement because they are due to report fourth-quarter earnings in the coming weeks and want to put the matter behind them.
Some smaller banks had objected to the terms of the deal, and it wasn't clear if they had signed on.
The settlement would end a review process set up in 2011 amid public outrage over banks' foreclosure practices. Swamped with foreclosure filings, many banks used "robo-signers" to sign off on thousands of cases, stating falsely that they personally reviewed each one.
The OCC, which oversees most of the nation's biggest banks, said in February 2011 that it had found "critical deficiencies and shortcomings" in banks' document handling, oversight of outside law firms and other areas. The regulator required banks to hire independent consultants to review foreclosures from 2009 and 2010 for errors.
However, reviews of some individual borrower files were taking as long as 25 to 30 hours, rather than the eight to 10 hours initially expected. Banks had already spent at least $1.3 billion on consultants.
Under the settlement, these reviews will halt, and the banks are expected to pay a total of $3.75 billion in cash and the balance in other forms of borrower relief.
Under the settlement, 4.4 million homeowners who were in some stage of foreclosure in 2009 and 2010 would receive a check of at least $250. Larger sums are to be sent to the 495,000 homeowners who asked to have their foreclosure cases reviewed. The amount will depend on the severity of the alleged violation, a person briefed on the process said.
Consumer advocates had long been critical of the review process. But they had mixed feelings about the pact.
It is "more likely to produce actual compensation for the millions of homeowners harmed by mortgage-servicer abuses," said Alys Cohen, staff attorney for the National Consumer Law Center. "However, the total pool of cash payments is wholly inadequate in light of the scale of the harm."
The agreement came after both banks and regulators realized that the effort to reach out to homeowners to find potential errors in the their foreclosure cases was turning into an expensive, prolonged process that wasn't sending aid to homeowners.
The foreclosure pact would be in addition to another settlement reached last February, when five large banks agreed to a $25 billion settlement with the Obama administration and 49 state attorneys general. Under that agreement, five banks have provided $26 billion in homeowner relief to some 300,000 borrowers.

At this point — the table covered with empty bottles — the waitress interrupts the conversation and asks us to move inside so she can close down the patio. It is a moment of decision.

From VIRGA (available at emergencypress.com)
Burnt buildings, white buildings,
coffee-colored buildings
All desperately begging pardon of a buncombe
of breezes
Brush dynamo rusting
Such terribly aggressive dust on the windows
Brunt brown, cigar brown, boot brown tracks
rolling toward the East River
Toward an old juice nest where two painters
now ply their strokes
Two grown men, holed in a garret of one-haired
(Visions clutter their small room like a covey

A recent study by members of the Children's Oncology Group reports results of a large trial showing that children whose leukemia cells have amplification of a portion of chromosome 21 may require more aggressive treatment for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) than children without this gene amplification.
"This helps identify patients who need more therapy than they may otherwise get," says Stephen Hunger, MD, investigator at the University of Colorado Cancer Center, professor of pediatrics at the University of Colorado School of Medicine, and director of the Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders at Children's Hospital Colorado.
Hunger notes that this genetic abnormality was first described in 2003 and has subsequently been found in about 2 percent of pediatric ALL patients. Initial reports described poor outcomes for small groups of children with this abnormality, but the current study is by far the largest and shows the importance of this genetic abnormality even with modern treatments. The study documents the treatments and outcomes of more than 8,000 cases of pediatric ALL.
"What we found is that when this genetic abnormality is present in children with good risk features who get a standard level of treatment, there is more treatment failure than with similar, low-risk kids who don't have this genetic marker. But with kids whose risk features already dictate more aggressive treatment, this genetic abnormality doesn't seem to be associated with a worse outcome, because kids are already getting the appropriate treatment. Recognizing this abnormality could help us treat even otherwise low-risk kids more aggressively up front leading to improved cure rates," Hunger says.
Specifically, the genetic abnormality is defined as four or more copies of the gene RUNX1, located on an abnormal chromosome 21. And this amplification is already detected as a byproduct of another genetic test standard in pediatric ALL, namely a test for fusion of this RUNX1 gene with the gene ETV6.
"In a sense, the testing comes for free with other testing you're already doing," Hunger says.
A study published by the same group in 2012 showed that pediatric ALL cure rates are at or above 90.4 percent.
"In early 1960s this disease was incurable," Hunger says. "Then in the late 1960s, the cure rate was 10 percent. Now 90 percent of children and adolescents diagnosed with ALL will be cured. Still, a 90-percent survival rate is little consolation to the 10 percent of families whose child doesn't survive. There's still more work to be done."

A big step forward to finding a good dog breeder
12:00am Sunday 16th September 2012 in News
The Advisory Council on the Welfare Issues of Dog Breeding has launched its Standard which sets out the Council's formal recommendation of the minimum standards which must be met to provide good health and welfare for all dogs involved in breeding and to answer the question "How can I find a good breeder?"
Commenting, BVA President Carl Padgett said: "We welcome the Standard which applies to all types of dogs and all types of breeder. The way in which a puppy is bred and how it is treated and socialised during the first weeks of its life has a huge impact on its health and temperament.
"Sadly, all too often veterinary surgeons see the devastating consequences of poor breeding practices. It is important that only physically and temperamentally healthy dogs are used for breeding and that their puppies are reared in an appropriate environment .
"One of the key challenges facing any responsible person who wishes to buy a puppy is deciding who to buy it from. The Standard offers clear, sound, practical guidance and is a big step forward in trying to improve the environment in which dogs are being bred."
The Standard, which will be updated regularly according to the best available science, is designed to protect fully the health and welfare of both breeding stock and their puppies. As well as including the minimum standards which the Council considers essential to good practice and advice on how to achieve them, the Standard is also backed by standard operating procedures - covering aspects such as socialisation, daily routine and feeding - that can be applied to licensed breeding or domestic breeding premises. In addition, the Advisory Council's website carries an excellent guide on buying a puppy.
Mr Padgett added: "I am particularly delighted that the Advisory Council has highlighted the puppy contract and puppy information pack (PIP) recently launched by the BVA Animal Welfare Foundation and RSPCA. The contract and PIP arm buyers with the knowledge to give themselves the best chance of getting a fit, healthy and happy, well socialised pet to join their household and they have been designed to help good breeders demonstrate the care and attention they have devoted to their puppies' breeding and upbringing.
"I would urge Ministers to heed the recommendations set out in this Standard and we must all continue to do everything within our powers to keep up the momentum to improve dog breeding."

This is a great location to visit other attractions, while in the area. Learn about col. Perry and the battle of Lake Erie and how it changed the history of America. Beautiful complex with a great view of the bay!
Good stop on the shores of Lake Erie. Large museum with actual ships. Replica of USS Niagara from the Battle of Lake Erie is stationed here. Great exhibits on how sailing ships worked and a great video. Parking is convenient.
We have stopped by here on 2 different trips. The first time we got to see the Niagara as it was pulling out of dock. The 2nd time we actually got to tour the ship. Very neat. Down below you do have to walk bent over. So much history. Very interesting.
Great experience of the historic Great Lakes and the beautiful Brig Niagara. Excellent guides and exhibits.
If your passing by Erie PA on interstate 90, a must stop and see is the Erie Maritime Museum. Not only does the Museum have a great variety of 1812 displays and artifacts, it hosts the Brig Niagara, Commodore Perry's Flagship. The Brig Niagara was the ship Perry transferred his command too after his was destroyed during the initial engagement... More
Very interesting museum featuring the War of 1812 and the US Brig Niagara. Wonderful displays with lots of great information. Nice gift shop. There are displays that would be of interest for all ages. The ship is often out visiting other places, so if that is your main reason for going you should check first to make sure it will... More
Went on a quiet day and the guide was really knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Museum was very interesting. Was great to see inside the ship too.
Good museum for local maritime history, especially about the War of 1812. The reconstructed Niagara, a U.S. Navy brig, was in port and in the process of being readied for winter storage. We were allowed to board the brig with our guide while this work was proceeding. Our guide was very informative, sharing her knowledge about life aboard the Niagara... More
Everyone there was very helpful. There was quite a crowd, but were able to see everything the museum had to offer. tour guides and period sailors let us getup close and personal.
This exceeded my expectations. The tour guides are quite knowledgeable. They give you a lot of good info about the ship and what it was like to be a sailor during the War of 1812. You take a tour of the Flagship Niagara including the top deck as well as down below. There's a lot of good stuff to see... More

The name Death Valley conjures up thoughts of barrenness and gloom. However, in the valley, most of which is below sea level, and the surrounding mountains, magnificent wildflowers, snow capped peaks, beautiful sand dunes, and abundant wildlife make Death Valley NP a wonderfully alive place. Be warned, the scorching heat of the valley makes it the hottest place in North America.
You can imagine that Death Valley was not always as hospitable to tourism as it is today. However, shortly after becoming President in March 1933, Franklin D. Roosevelt pushed for legislation that would get the country back on its feet after the Great Depression. To this end, the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) was established. The CCC recruited unemployed young men from all over the country to work on national lands under the supervision of the army reserve.
Over the next nine years, 1200 men endured the Death Valley weather system to transform the place into a natural tourist attraction. They build barracks, laid 500 miles of roads, installed water and telephone lines, and built 76 buildings among other things. They were paid $25 per month ($5 for the men and $20 for their families). However, these men were among the first to be called to war, and by May 1942 they had all left Death Valley. Their work to make Death Valley NP a place that Americans could enjoy cannot be overlooked.
Several ghost towns are located in the region. These towns sprang up to accommodate those who mined for gold, silver, copper, lead, and other elements. However, when the mines dried up or never yielded anything, these towns were abandoned.
Exploring these desolate towns is only one of the many activities to enjoy in Death Valley NP. Visitors can also:
•View awesome sunrises and sunsets
•Go backpacking into the 350 miles of backcountry
•Camp in one of several campgrounds
•Hike into canyons or old mines
•Bike through the valley
To ensure that your trip is a great experience, keep in mind that the Death Valley weather system is generally sunny, dry, and clear throughout the year. Winters are mild, but summers are dry and ultra hot. Temperatures are consistently more than 120 degrees Fahrenheit. Therefore, comfortable sportswear, sturdy walking shoes, sunscreen, and plenty of water are needed.
Death Valley NP is far from dead. It contains an abundance wildlife, vegetation, and beautiful scenery. Imagine walking into a desolate town that was once full of life, hiking up into an old mine, or witnessing the myriad of moods in the valley at sunset. Whether driving, walking, hiking, or biking, the wonders of this sizzling and parched place are sure to be unforgettable.

Hi, I organised a stag weekend for 26 men through Eclipse leisure, we went to Bristol.
Tanya was brilliant, helping me all the way, with up dates and advice.
We started with paintball at Delta Force on the Friday, where as the stag..... I was dressed in a pink target bib..... needless to say I was shot a few times!!!!.
Coach transfers by Avon coaches on the Saturday was a plus due to the alcohol consumed the night before... off to the Quad bikes and Rage buggies, by Max Events. This is a must for all stags...... who will be the fastest???
All the events were well run safe and we had so many laughs.
The Hotel we stayed in was right in the heart of the town, with only a short walk to all the night clubs and bar's etc.
There was no trouble that we saw in Bristol, with all the doormen polite and we never waited to get in..... due to the queue jumping passes through Eclipse Leisure.
Thanks to Tanya and Eclipse Leisure.
Craig from Reading.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE August 23, 2011
Contact: HHS Press Office (202) 690-6343
HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius today announced 12 individuals to serve on the Advisory Council on Alzheimer's Research, Care, and Services. The 12 non-federal members are Alzheimer's disease patient advocates, caregivers, health care providers and others with Alzheimer's disease-related expertise who will advise the Secretary on federal programs that impact people with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias.
"We are pleased to have this group of experts and advocates assisting HHS in developing a national plan for Alzheimer's disease," said Secretary Sebelius. "We received an overwhelming number of nominations, demonstrating not only the impact of this debilitating condition but the widespread commitment to address it."
The full Advisory Council, established May 23, also includes federal members and will meet quarterly to assist in the development of a national plan by HHS, Veterans Affairs, the Department of Defense, and the National Science Foundation to address the disease. The Advisory Council is required by the National Alzheimer's Project Act and its members will serve for overlapping four-year terms.
"We are reviewing and coordinating our efforts to address the impact of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias," said Donald Moulds, principal deputy assistant secretary for planning and evaluation. "With the input of the Advisory Council, we will create a national plan to help reduce financial and care impacts faced by people with the disease as well as promote research toward its prevention and treatment."
Alzheimer's disease currently affects 5.1 million Americans and is expected to affect more than 20 million by 2050. The National Alzheimer's Project Act, signed by President Obama in January, will help people and families across the country whose lives are touched by Alzheimer's disease. The Act will help strengthen Alzheimer's research, and health and long-term care services for affected individuals.

The tour began right on time. The tour guide/bus driver was well informed and was able to point out or comment on relevant inforamtion on the ride to Banff. The connection to the next bus was easy and the tour guide/bus driver was, once again, well informed and offered relavent information. The many side stops were very much appreciated for photo taking or stretching our legs. The buses were comfortable with excellent views of both sides. I would highly recommend this extremely enjoyable tour.
Great trip to experience the beauty of the Rockies. The tour guide was interesting and kept the group organized and informed during the day.
well organized, great scenic spots, experienced driver as tour guide. Highly recommend!
Jim and Darryl
The day we took this tour we were fortunate enough to experience snow falling at Lake Louise and the Athabasca Glacier. It was a fairy tale experience.
Riding the giant purpose built transports to get onto the ice was very exciting. The tour was certainly value for money, which included a buffet lunch.
Amazing landscape and professional staff
Pick up and drop off at our hotel was convenient. Driver was knowledgeable. Several stops along the way to take pictures or to get a better look at attractions.
The Icefield Tour was good!
This is excellent value - all major areas are seen and plenty of stops for photos. Only down size was not enough time for dinner in Banff if you are returning to Calgary but would highly recommended this tour and our guide on the day Rick was excellent
Trip to Heaven. Beautiful mountains, lakes, forest and animals.
Trip was good for me. Not good at all for my husband who walk with a cane, however the trip was recommended by one of your rep. timing for sightseeing was not long enough for him to get off the bus and return. It was a waste for him.
The itinerary includes a tour of Banff and that was one of the considerations for choosing this tour package but the only part of Banff I got to see was the bus station! So that was very disappointing. The rest of the tour was fine.

Former Friends star David Schwimmer threatened to leave the stage on opening night of his London play "Some Girls" because he saw paparazzi photographing him during a semi-naked scene. Lovely.
Schwimmer says the play is about, "Relationships and the choices people make, learning to live with those choices, and recovering from the damage done when those choices go wrong." Schwimmer says the photog ruined his debut by taking non-stop pics...especially during his "underwear" scene. When asked if he thought the guy came to take pics just because he was in his boxer shorts he replied, "I don't know, but if he did, he needed a giant lens."

TO Waste is Toronto's first green app of its kind that will inform each family and/or individual about the next scheduled waste pickup day, and propose the 'right' bin to be collected. It will also show the location of the nearest garbage depot for the people living in the City of Toronto.
All this information and more can be easily accessed based on the postal code of your area.
Here are some handy features to expect from TO Waste:
- Waste Touch
With just one touch, the app will show you the bins to be placed for the next scheduled waste pickup
- Remind Me
If you forgot to keep your waste on the curbside last week, then this week let the app remind you before the next scheduled waste pickup.
- Garbage Depot
Do you have a waste that is bigger than your bin, then let the app find the nearest garbage depot based on your current location and give you the directions.
Helps sort through waste by identifying the bins in which the waste belongs, as well as what to do with items that don't go into the bins.
TO Waste is not the official app of the City of Toronto; we built this app using information from the City of Toronto's Open Data initiative for the people of Toronto.
TO Waste is now available in the App Store for the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad.

This gives dentists clinical time to review instruction and bring practical experience to and from their own offices each week. Plus attendance is limited to ensure individual attention. The dental implant course is hands-on and will include working on your own patient case! You will follow the development of over 20 patient cases.

New Look Hockey Prospectus is available with new Premium Content!Limited time offer: $9.99 for an entire year!
January 11, 2011 Player Power Rankings The Canucks Are On Fire
by Tom Awad
During the season, these rankings -- which appear on Mondays in concert with the NHL Power Rankings -- are based on player production in terms of Hockey Prospectus' GVT valuation metric. If you are unfamiliar with GVT and how it works, you can find more here.
This week, we changed the format. Previously, it had been the top 10 players overall. Now, it's the top 10 skaters and the top five goalies. We think this will constitute an improvement in processing the info for fans, especially since goalies and skaters do very different things in an NHL game.
Check out the full rankings below. We'll be back every Monday with new editions.
Player Power Rankings: Skaters
These rankings are based on games through Jan. 9.
OGVT: Offensive GVT
GGVT: Goaltending GVT
DGVT: Defensive GVT
SGVT: Shootout GVT
GVT: Total GVT
Rank Player OGVT/GGVT DGVT SGVT GVT
1. Sidney Crosby, F, Pittsburgh Penguins 15.7 1.8 -0.2 17.3
Comment: The last player to win the scoring title while missing significant time was Jaromir Jagr, who led the NHL with 96 points in 63 games in 1999-2000. Hopefully Sid will be back sooner than that.
2. Steven Stamkos, F, Tampa Bay Lightning 13.8 2.5 -0.8 15.4
Comment: Young players often struggle in the faceoff circle, and Stamkos is no exception. He has won only 46 percent of his even-strength draws this season.
3. Daniel Sedin, F, Vancouver Canucks 13.4 1.3 0.3 15.0
Comment: Sedin's career marks are 36 goals and 85 points, totals he is likely to obliterate this season. He's on pace for 50 goals and 108 points.
4. Kris Letang, D, Pittsburgh Penguins 7.6 4.4 1.1 13.1
Comment: Letang's challenge is now to help the Penguins' offense keep humming in Sidney Crosby's absence. So far it's been ugly, with only one goal in two games.
5. Anze Kopitar, F, Los Angeles King 8.2 3.2 0.6 12.1
Comment: Kopitar's name rarely comes up when discussing the NHL's top centers, but it should. His huge array of skills allows him to play in all manpower situations; last season he was second among NHL forwards in total ice time (behind Martin St. Louis).
6. Ryan Kesler, F, Vancouver Canucks 8.9 3.2 -0.2 11.9
Comment: The secret cog of the Canucks' success is Kesler. It's Kesler, not Henrik Sedin, who takes all the key defensive draws, winning 58 percent of them, and he leads all Canucks in special-teams ice time, at over six minutes a game.
7. Brad Richards, F, Dallas Stars 9.0 1.6 1.2 11.8
Comment: Richards leads the league with 226 minutes of power-play time, and his 5:25 a game is only seconds off the lead.
8. Henrik Sedin, F, Vancouver Canucks 10.1 1.6 0.0 11.7
Comment: Henrik has played 92 percent of his even-strength time and 99 percent of his power-play time with his brother Daniel.
9. Martin St. Louis, F, Tampa Bay Lightning 10.1 1.9 -0.5 11.5
Comment: When St. Louis signed a four-year contract last summer, many criticized GM Steve Yzerman for handing out such a contract to a 35-year-old, but St. Louis has silenced the doubters.
10. Nicklas Lidstrom, D, Detroit Red Wings 9.1 2.1 0.0 11.2
Comment: A seventh Norris trophy would move Lidstrom into a second-place tie with Doug Harvey, only one behind the legendary Bobby Orr.
Player Power Rankings: Goalies
Rank Player OGVT/GGVT DGVT SGVT GVT 1. Tim Thomas, G, Boston Bruins 27.1 -0.6 -2.1 24.4
Comment: Thomas can't be happy about letting a shutout slip through his fingers on Saturday; he allowed three goals in six minutes as the Bruins lost 3-2 to Montreal.
2. Jonas Hiller, G, Anaheim Ducks 18.7 -1.1 2.0 19.6
Comment: No goaltender has faced more shots (1,208) or made more saves (1,109) than Hiller this season. The Ducks can't worry about keeping him fresh for the playoffs; they need him every game just to make the playoffs.
3. Ondrej Pavelec, G, Atlanta Thrashers 18.4 -0.9 -0.7 16.9
Comment: The Pavelec wall has finally been breached, allowing six goals against Pittsburgh and five against Toronto before being pulled. It doesn't help that he has faced more than 40 shots per game in his past five starts.
4. Carey Price, G, Montreal Canadiens 13.1 0.3 1.3 14.8
Comment: Price had an awful 10-game stretch from Dec. 10 to the new year: a 3.54 GAA, pedestrian 0.869 save percentage and 2-7-1 record.
5. Henrik Lundqvist, G, New York Rangers 12.5 0.0 2.1 14.6
Comment: Lundqvist's shootout GVT is no fluke: Since the lockout, Lundqvist has been the guy you want in net when the skills competition begins. He has turned away 146 of 194 shots for a 0.752 save percentage while the league has averaged 0.670.
