|BOS Leads Series 3 - 0
FINAL 2nd OT
BOSTON – The Pittsburgh Penguins gave the Boston Bruins everything they had.
The Penguins threw 54 shots on goal, nearly matching the 56 shots they had in the first two games of this Eastern Conference Final series. The Penguins won more faceoffs, threw more hits, and committed fewer giveaways than the Bruins. They dominated long stretches of the most important game of their season Wednesday night.
And they lost.
Now a team that was 51 seconds away from having their season come to an end in Game 7 of the first round is one win away from its second Stanley Cup Final in three years -- and the same man is to thank for both of those scenarios coming to pass for the Bruins.
Patrice Bergeron's goal at 15:19 of the second overtime gave the Bruins a 2-1 win in Game 3 and a 3-0 stranglehold on the Eastern Conference Final. The Bruins could complete a series sweep with a win in Game 4 Friday night at TD Garden (8 p.m. ET; NBCSN, CBC, RDS).
"We found a way, I guess. That's the only way you've got to look at it," said Bergeron, a man who wears the battle scars of Stanley Cup Playoff hockey on his face like a badge of honor. "It wasn't necessarily our best effort in the first 60 [minutes], but I thought we re-grouped well in overtime and we had some really good chances in the first overtime. We kept battling and said that we have to find a way somehow.
"We did in the second overtime."
The winning goal came as the result of Bergeron and his linemate for the past three seasons, Brad Marchand, hooking up for another big goal -- just like they did in Game 7 of the first round against the Toronto Maple Leafs and again three nights later in overtime of Game 1 against the New York Rangers.
"That's what happens when you've been together for three years, as a duo anyways," Bruins coach Claude Julien said. "They've learned to play with each other extremely well."
With the two teams exhausted after nearly five full periods of hard-fought hockey, Jaromir Jagr beat Evgeni Malkin in a battle for the puck near the Penguins' bench. The puck popped out and Jagr fed Marchand to head into the Penguins zone. Marchand sent the puck toward the slot where Bergeron got inside position on defenseman Brooks Orpik and deflected it past Tomas Vokoun.
While Marchand and Bergeron will get the glory, it was a 41-year-old future Hall of Fame forward out-battling one of the best players in the world for a loose puck that made the winning goal happen.
"I think that guys have a lot of respect for who he was in the past, and I think now seeing how hard he pushes himself to be better and how he's not too good to develop into what we need him to be," said Bruins defenseman Andrew Ference, who had an outstanding defensive game. "Guys really respect that. A couple of huge plays that he made grinding it out on the wall won't make any of the highlight reels when he's inducted into the Hall of Fame, but those are huge plays that win hockey games for us."
This is the second year in a row the Penguins face a 3-0 series deficit. The Penguins went down 3-0 to the Philadelphia Flyers in the opening round of the playoffs last year before dropping the series in six games. But in the Penguins' eyes, considering how well they played through the first three periods, they deserved much better than to be in this dire situation.
"The whole game we felt really comfortable with our play," said captain Sidney Crosby, who's still looking for his first point of the series. "We felt like it was just a matter of time before we were going to get it. Unfortunately we didn't, they hung around and got one at the end."
As difficult as it may appear to the Penguins right now that they can come back in the series, Crosby feels the model they used in Game 3 after being totally outclassed on home ice in Game 2 would be a good place to get a comeback started.
"We can't get three wins with one game," Crosby said. "We have to find a way to get back there and get back to that same level we had tonight, and hopefully capitalize on our chances. But I don't think there's too much we would change going into Game 4. If we can play the same game and put those pucks in the net, then we give ourselves a chance."
Chris Kunitz was the only Penguin who put the puck in the net Wednesday -- and it was just the second puck to beat Bruins goalie Tuukka Rask on 110 shots in the series.
Rask made 53 of his 108 saves in the series Wednesday night while displaying the same steady, solid play in goal that creates a calming influence on the Bruins in front of him, knowing that he is back there to erase their mistakes when they happen.
"Tuukka's been our most consistent player all year long," center Chris Kelly said. "He just proved that again tonight coming up with some big saves when we really needed them."
Of Rask's 53 saves, 15 came in the two overtime periods and 13 came on the penalty kill, allowing Boston to go 6-for-6; the Bruins are a perfect 12-for-12 when down a man in the series.
"I think we're doing a good job of taking their time and space away," Kelly said. "Your best penalty killer needs to be your goalie, and Tuukka has been. He's been there when we've had some breakdowns and been there to make the saves."
David Krejci took over the League playoff lead with his ninth goal for the Bruins.
Vokoun bounced back from being pulled in Game 2 with a great performance, stopping 38 shots and providing exactly what Penguins coach Dan Bylsma wanted from him – a chance to win.
"We have lost the first three games and we're going to battle and lay it out there," Bylsma said. "We threw it at them tonight and didn't get the win. But it's a race to four and they're not there yet. We're going to come in here, regroup and go after Game 4."
For a second game in a row the Bruins scored on their first shot. But unlike Game 2, the Penguins did not allow it to get them off their game.
Once again it was Boston's top line that did the damage, with Milan Lucic starting the play by setting up Krejci behind the net and then driving to the front of the net himself. Lucic attracted three Penguins to him initially, allowing Krejci to patiently work the puck behind the net with no pressure. Krejci finally decided to walk out to the lower left circle, leading Matt Niskanen to leave Lucic and challenge the puck carrier -- but Krejci's pass for Lucic bounced off Niskanen instead and past Vokoun at 1:42 of the first period.
The Penguins did not wilt after what could have been a very discouraging goal and took it to the Bruins, but a number of quality saves by Rask allowed Boston to enter the first intermission with a 1-0 lead.
Pittsburgh's persistence carried over into the second period, forcing the Bruins into taking two penalties in the opening five minutes and creating some momentum off the power play, though it was unable to produce -- largely once again because of Rask, who made five saves on the second power play.
The Penguins finally scored their second goal of the series at 8:51 of the second when Crosby beat Bergeron, the League's best faceoff man in the regular season, on an offensive-zone draw. The puck went to Pascal Dupuis, who sent it back to Paul Martin at the point. Martin carried the puck down the right side and began cutting towards the net when he found Kunitz alone on the opposite side of the slot, setting him up for a one-timer that beat Rask for his fifth goal of the playoffs.
The Bruins took yet another penalty, this time for having too many men on the ice, two minutes after the goal, but this time it created some momentum for Boston thanks to a courageous effort by Gregory Campbell. After blocking a Malkin shot high in the leg area, Campbell writhed in pain on the ice as the Penguins continued working the puck in the offensive zone.
Campbell finally managed to get up and, barely able to stand, managed to get in some passing and shooting lanes to disrupt the Penguins power play until Shawn Thornton left the penalty box, drawing a standing ovation as he limped to the bench and went straight to the dressing room. He did not return to the game, and Julien called it a "serious" injury. Multiple media outlets reported after the game that Campbell suffered a broken leg.
"That's the way he is," Bergeron said. "He sacrifices the body for the team, for the better of the team. We tried to rally behind that and do it for him because he's a big part of our team on and off the ice."
Malkin nearly gave the Penguins their first lead of the series just after the 16-minute mark of the second when he came off the bench, picked Dennis Seidenberg's pocket just inside the Bruins' blue line and came in on goal, but his tremendous deke attempt was stopped by Rask to maintain the tie score heading into the third period.
The score remained 1-1 through the final 20 minutes of regulation, but it wasn't for a lack of trying by a Penguins team that finally looked like the one that had averaged more than four goals per game in the playoffs entering the series. Pittsburgh peppered Rask with 14 shots compared with just four for the Bruins and hit two posts, one each by Crosby and Malkin.
The first overtime period featured end-to-end action with very few whistles, other than to call five penalties that resulted in three power plays, two for the Bruins and one for the Penguins.
Vokoun stopped Nathan Horton on a breakaway about 90 seconds in and Horton hit the goal post to Vokoun's left about six minutes later, while at the other end Rask stopped Craig Adams and Brandon Sutter in quick succession with about five minutes left in the period.
That set the stage for Bergeron to serve as the hero for the Bruins once again. But as a team with numerous members of a club that blew a 3-0 series lead to the Philadelphia Flyers in 2010, the Bruins insist they will be ready for Game 4.
"They're a great team and we respect them," Bergeron said. "We've got to be in the moment. We can't get overexcited about having three wins, because you need four."

Green Grease Solutions, a New Jersey-based feedstock provider, will supply feedstock to Imperial Petroleum's biodiesel operations in Middletown, Indiana for two years. The operations are to be managed by e-Biofuels, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Imperial Petroleum.
Imperial Petroleum will commence hedging of its biodiesel production during the supply contract period. The hedging will be done through Augsburg Energy, a commodity trading advisor. The hedging approach provides an opportunity to balance risk and protect the energy company's gross margins on biodiesel fuel production.
President of Imperial Petroleum, Jeffrey T. Wilson stated that the company is delighted to collaborate with major feedstock suppliers like Green Grease Solutions and to sign a feedstock supply contract for its biodiesel capabilities. The partnership will strengthen Imperial Petroleum's growing biofuels business and will offer growth opportunities for both the companies.
Imperial Petroleum is engaged in three main areas of energy production: non-traditional oil production from mineable tar sands, traditional oil and gas exploration and production and biodiesel and biofuels production.

How It Works
CLICK to see construction details...
I'm a commercial photographer in Sweden since 14 years, and very, very picky about my sleep environment. I heard about the ChiliPad through the women's US track cycling success during the olympics, as sleep played a role in their recovery strategy. Since I live in Sweden and ChiliPad is a US product, I had to find a good vendor that shipped to my country, and found it in Sleep Like a Bear; quick, relevant and kind communication and fast, prompt deliveries despite the long distance — perfect. After the first night with the ChiliPad, I was truly impressed and ordered a second identical set from Sleep Like a Bear, to use as a backup, for guests, and to experiment with as a blanket, in addition to the mattress use. The ChiliPad is really unique; much, much quieter than a regular air conditioner, and more effective in creating a perfect temperature during sleep. I'm a happy customer :-)
I have been a physician practicing in Raleigh area for 9 years. My hot flashes started about 5 years before menopause. I tried everything: herbal supplements, wicking pajamas, pillow insets, and I even bought a new mattress. I was sweating and my husband freezing while we fought about fans and he temperature of the thermostat. But other than Estrogen treatments nothing was beating my hot flashes until ChiliPad. Now both my husband and I can sleep comfortably. Join me in this drug free approach to comfort.

New York City has been defined by its 520 miles of coastline or the 'Sixth Borough'. Originally used for industry, the City has been in the process of revitalizing its waterfront and transforming it from industrial uses into more recreational and residential uses and recently completed a new waterfront plan. At the same time, the city is coming to terms with recovering from the impacts of the superstorm and its unprecedented storm surge, while planning for a rising sea level. What are the conflicting priorities and challenges facing the city and how are they being addressed in real time by the multitude of city leaders, urban planners, design professionals and design organizations? This panel will look at what is happening in New York City and emerging approaches to increase community resilience on the coast. Moderated by Joyce Klein Rosenthal, Assistant Professor of Urban Planning and Co-coordinator of the Advanced Studies Program in Risk and Resilience.

The Big Blue Report is the Superman Homepage Newsletter sent out twice a month. It contains exclusive content not seen on the website. Subscribe now!
"We are thrilled by the overwhelmingly positive response from retailers, fans and the creative community to DC Comics - The New 52," said DC Entertainment President Diane Nelson. "This was a bold publishing initiative that is reinvigorating and growing the industry and medium we love."
"We did more than just change Superman's costume and renumber the entire line. We took a huge risk and it's paying off," said Jim Lee, DC Entertainment co-publisher and artist of JUSTICE LEAGUE. "Comic book retailers are seeing returning fans as well as new readers flock to their stores."
Earlier this year, and before DC COMICS - THE NEW 52 launched on August 31, the industry's bestselling comic book title typically sold about 100,000 copies. In contrast:
"People are buying, reading and talking about a line of comic books in a way they haven't in years," said Dan DiDio, DC Entertainment co-publisher. "We're thrilled to see the passionate response fans have had, but this is just Step One for us. Now our plan is to keep the momentum and enthusiasm going."
"When DC Entertainment was created almost two years ago, we committed to an environment of 'no fear' when it came to creative and business risks," said Nelson. "I couldn't be more proud of our Publishing team for embracing this mantra and delivering in a way that is growing the genre, our partners' businesses and our fan base, while helping to fuel the creative engine that drives so many Warner Bros.' content businesses."
In addition to debuting all-new first issues in comic shops, DC COMICS - THE NEW 52 launched same-day digital publishing, with DC Entertainment becoming the first major comic book publisher to release their entire line of ongoing titles same-day digital.
"Our digital sales have been better than we could have imagined and we are pleased that these sales are additive to traditional publishing sales in the comic book stores," said John Rood, executive vice president of Sales, Marketing and Business Development. "We're not migrating readers from print to digital. We're adding more new readers into the mix."

You've heard of Facebook (FB), but you've probably never heard of GSV Capital (GSVC).
But if I told you GSV Capital is a major Facebook investor gapped up almost 50% in the last month, you're probably a bit more interested. Right?
Closed-end funds are typically not the sexiest investment, since they are a bit arcane. Basically these investment vehicles offer a fixed number of shares to raise capital, then invest that capital accordingly. Shares are not created based on investor demand, so unlike conventional mutual funds or ETFs these instruments can often trade at a significant premium or discount to their net asset value.
As a small closed-end fund with a market cap of $170 million, GSVC wasn't on many investors' radar. But the underlying investments certainly were — not just Facebook stock, Groupon (GRPN) and Zynga (ZNGA) as well as Twitter and Dropbox.
As an early investor in non-public tech companies, GSV Capital got in on the ground floor for all of these picks — including Facebook stock even before its IPO.
That counted against it for a while, especially amid the negativity around Facebook stock last year, with the fund actually trading at a significant discount to its NAV as investors remained pessimistic on Facebook and other internet stocks. But decent Groupon earnings and Facebook earnings this month have sparked a breakout.
One investor who wasn't surprised was Charles Sizemore, who touted GSV Capital way back in January right here on the The Slant.
Here's what he had to say in his latest issue of the Sizemore Investment Letter now that he's been validated in his call:
"The market noticed the big 'free money' sign hanging in front of GSV Capital's (Nasdaq: GSVC) door. After languishing for all of 2013, GSV's shares have risen by more than half in the past month. And I expect further gains of 50%-100% in the coming 12 months.
The good news is that GSV is still cheap. Its book value as of June 30 is estimated to be about $250 million. Its market cap, even after the run-up, is still just $227 million. So, GSV is trading at a discount to book of about 9%, and again, I expect that book value to be revised upward as investor enthusiasm grows for Twitter.
If you haven't bought shares yet, it's not too late. But do be careful. GSVC is a tiny company with a low average trading volume. Use a limit order and average into your position over the course of a few days or weeks."

This is quite a good soup. Caraway is an infrequently used, but very good spice addition. What can make this more of a hearty soup is to add some potatoes and/or corn. That doesn't add a lot of calories, but it does make it more filling. Also, I found that salmon was kind of a powerful tasting fish, so I did some salmon and some other white fish like catfish or halibut, so the salmon did not overpower the flavors.

The bombing of the Boston Marathon last month has called into question some notions that have been close to sacrosanct in the civil rights/human relations communities for decades.
That act of terror has raised profound questions about the nature of our democracy, the rights of individuals and groups, the tolerance level of the public towards minorities and the balance between individual rights and the public good.
The Boston Marathon bombing has, by virtue of the alleged perpetrators, raised the question as to how far law enforcement has gone and ought to go to prevent the recurrence of similar "lone wolf" acts of terror by Islamist jihadists.
The facile and oft repeated response is that no group should be "profiled." Lacking "probable cause" that a crime is being planned, no group should be watched nor individual members of a group monitored more closely than others. The traditional notion is that unless a crime is imminent individuals and groups are to be viewed and treated equally and at a distance.
But the Boston Marathon bombing (committed not by foreign nationals sneaking their way onto our shores) callously and murderously executed by seemingly normal neighbors validates the position taken by the New York Police Department (for which it has been widely vilified) that certain groups warrant closer scrutiny and, yes, profiling.
Last year, the NYPD's Demographics Unit was found to have been gathering information on Muslims not only in New York but in other parts of the northeast United States. They were vigorously criticized in some quarters (the Associated Press won a Pulitzer Prize for writing about the NYPD's practices). The ACLU ridiculed the NYPD's concept of terrorist "radicalization"---however, the Department's analysis of likely terrorists reads like a primer on the brothers Tsarnaev. Some believe that had the Tsarnaevs been in New York they would have been on the NYPD's surveillance list and closely watched.
A recent Wall Street Journal column pointed out that the NYPD has thwarted 16 terrorist attacks in the city since 9/11. A fact that it is easy to be blasé about, but the countless lives that weren't snuffed out or destroyed in the absence of terror is a significant accomplishment.
In response to his critics, Mayor Bloomberg has been refreshingly honest,
the police department goes where there are allegations, and they look to see whether those allegations are true. That's what you'd expect them to do. That's what you'd want them to do. Remind yourself when you turn off the light tonight.
The NYPD was equally clear in response to the critics of its monitoring of Muslim student activities and Muslim Student Associations ("MSA") on college campuses. The NYPD spokesman, in a rather prescient observation last year noted that "Some of the most dangerous Western al Qaeda-linked/inspired terrorists since 9/11 were radicalized and/or recruited at universities in MSAs."
To acknowledge the obvious is not to stereotype Muslim Americans or Arab Americans; it is simply to state what most Americans can glean from reading their newspapers and watching the news over the past decade--- there is a problem that Islam must deal with.
As The New York Times' Thomas Friedman recently wrote:
But we must ask a question only Muslims can answer: What is going on in your community that a critical number of your youth believes that every American military action in the Middle East is intolerable and justifies a violent response, and everything Muslim extremists do to other Muslims is ignorable and calls for mostly silence?
The tendency of opinion molders and other leaders to skirt the obvious and pretend that Muslims and Quakers should be viewed similarly is partially grounded in a belief that breaching political correctness could degenerate into dangerous bigotry and stereotyping of Muslim and Arab Americans (the internment of Japanese Americans haunts our memories).
That fear seems not to be warranted, even if it should always give us pause and temper our actions and words.
Americans have absorbed the message of the civil rights era well---we have learned not to extrapolate from the individual to the group. A problem with some youthful Muslim males does not extend to the colleague at work or the worshippers at the mosque. We have learned to parse bad guys and potential bad guys from normal folk.
In the light of the series of incidents that have occurred over the past decade---Ft. Hood, the Christmas Day bomber, Times Square, etc. ---there would be ample grounds for suspicion, hostility and nastiness against Muslim Americans were that our tendency. Yet, an August, 2011 Pew Study found that:
At a personal level, most [Muslims] think that ordinary Americans are friendly (48%) or neutral (32%) toward Muslim Americans; relatively few (16%) believe the general public is unfriendly toward Muslim Americans. About two-thirds (66%) say that the quality of life for Muslims in the U.S. is better than in most Muslim countries.
Strikingly, Muslim Americans are far more satisfied with the way things are going in the country (56%) than is the general public (23%). Four years ago, Muslim Americans and the public rendered fairly similar judgments about the state of the nation (38% of Muslims vs. 32% of the general public were satisfied).
We ought to give ourselves the credit that we have earned and receive honest and frank assessments on matters that can and have impacted life and death (even if some profiling, warranted by data, occurs).
Most of us have learned to resist Islamophobia and the facile resort to stereotyping and bigotry. Religious leaders and civil rights activists have successfully imparted that message to several generations of Americans, and it seems to be sticking.

Glasgow Wrestlers Put On Strong Performance At The State Meet In Billings
February 19, 2014 | Volume 101 / Number 8
Jan Kaiser / For The Courier
Cody King (top) attempts to pin his opponent at the State wrestling meet.
Starting out with a bang.
That's exactly how Glasgow wrestling head coach Trevor Newman described the first day of the State Meet in Billings on Friday.
"I was please that we had four of the five reach the second day of the tournament," Newman said.
Day two of the tournament was a different story.
All of the momentum going into the second day was lost as Glasgow came crashing back down to earth going 0-6 on the day. Even with the dismal performance by the team in day two, Kasey Seyfert was able to place sixth in the 113 pound weight class.
Newman assured that the performances of day two shouldn't fall on the shoulders of the wrestlers, but instead himself.
"I take all responsibility for not getting them prepared for Saturday," Newman said. "I'm happy with the way they competed to put themselves in a place to place at State. They came to compete."
As the season is now officially over, Newman pointed out that each wrestler improved over the course of the year.
"I'm happy with those that stuck out the entire season," Newman said. "Wrestling is a very difficult and demanding sport and those who finished showed their dedication and perseverance as Scottie wrestlers do."
Newman also acknowledged that even though he's pleased with his squad, he hopes that the way Billings ended will leave the Scotties hungry to get even better next year.
"The team needs to get some camps in this summer and continue to wrestle," Newman said. "It's my responsibility to get more numbers out next year and ensure the wrestlers continue to improve."

The city of Dearborn Heights will be holding its 21st Ecorse Creek Clean-Up tomorrow at Swapka Park, near the Richard A. Young Recreation Center (5400 McKinley).
The Watershed Stewards Commission plus volunteers will be picking up the area along the creek from 9 a.m.-noon Saturday. Sign-in time is 8:30 p.m. for the volunteers, whom are asked to dress warmly for the cold.
"Usually we get 60 people out each year, so we should have our hands full," Watershed Stewards Commission Co-Chair Barbara Goryca said. "The commissioners will wear waders and go into the creek some years, but when I looked at the creek this week the water was about four feet up, so we'll be just picking up along the creek this year.
"It's been clean. I saw one area, behind the Van Born Road CVS at Beech Daly, where there were a couple places really needing picking up," Goryca said.
However, she added there is still heavy work to do on rain garden maintenance, which Goryca said will involve spreading five square yards of mulch and cutting back brush and bushes. Goryca credits the three rain gardens and reconstructing the parking lot with porous pavement for "doing a great job" of flood control, absorbing 90 percent of the water coming off the Young Center roof.
"The Crestwood National Honor Society members will do a great job spreading the mulch," she said. "In fact, five of those young men from the National Honor Society are now members of the Watershed Stewards Commission, and we can be real proud of them."
For the first time, all participants will be receiving a T-shirt (with the Ecorse Creek-2014 logo). A hot dog lunch will follow.
Watershed Stewards Commission will also be asking city residents to clean up their the curb and storm drain in front of their homes, which could be stopping the draining of spring rains if they are clogged with leaves and twigs. At the suggestion of Co-Chair Steven Roberts, Goryca said, the commission selected May 3 to coincide with the Ecorse Creek Cleanup as the first of several weekends throughout the summer for undertaking this effort.
"We decided to publicize this, so even if people are not going to do it this Saturday, they might be made aware of our citizen citywide push," she said.

Larry Merchant on boxing
Story by Bob Hough
Photo courtesy of HBO
Larry Merchant believes that times of vulnerability create stories of greatness, despair and loss.
He has seen them unfold in Miguel Cotto's determination, in Victor Ortiz leaving observers and perhaps himself with doubts about his commitment, in Arturo Gatti's passing.
"People like drama," Merchant said recently in San Jose, Calif., where he attended a fight card, met fans and sat down to discuss what he's seen in those three men. "For better and for worse, there tends to be a great deal of drama in boxing, certainly so in just the last few weeks."
Merchant, who joined HBO as a commentator in 1981 after writing newspaper columns and three books, is as absorbed by boxing as he was almost 30 years ago.
"It's an endless novel," the 78-year-old said. "I'm still wired into it."
Able to comment wisely about tactics and strategies, Merchant is often drawn toward the human sides of the characters, their lives and complexities.
Boxing, he believes, is "a very rich place to observe human behavior."
While the Brooklyn, N.Y., native is endlessly fascinated by what happens in and out of the ring, he remembers that fighters are unlike most of us and as human as all of us. His thoughts are of understanding boxing and of human understanding.
"It's a harsh game and there are harsh judges; the judges who score fights, people who comment on them and the fans," said Merchant, a recent inductee into the International Boxing Hall of Fame. "Sometimes you get over-praised and some times you get over-blamed."
Merchant believes that fans want to see boxers risk all to take all, reminiscent of Tommy Hearns and Marvin Hagler in their extraordinary 1985 fight.
There's a balance in there somewhere, Merchant thinks, between reasonable expectations and remembering that fighters are human.
"Fans want to see a guy fight. They admire a masterful performance and they want to see what happens when a fighter has to struggle. You have every expectation that 'You signed up for this. You signed up for being a fighter. You signed up for this fight. I expect you to give your best 'til you can't give any more,' but maybe the fighter thinks he gave his best and truly did, even though he quit or it looks like he did."
With Ortiz, who appeared to have had enough in an arduous fight against Marcos Maidana, there's a sense from Merchant of maybe too much praise before the fight, too much blame afterward.
"We've seen fighters come back from those scenarios," Merchant recalled. "When Vitali Klitschko quit or resigned against Chris Byrd, I was among those who strongly criticized him. He was way ahead in the fight. All he had to do was survive a couple rounds, three rounds, and it turned out he had a shoulder injury that required surgery. Were we correct in criticizing him and wondering about him? I think so, but we found out he had a serious injury, and as we know, he came back and showed great, great heart and toughness in his fight against Lennox Lewis."
In Merchant's eyes, a "confluence of pressure" on Ortiz might have taken a toll.
"We saw a young fighter, twenty-two, who was under severe pressure from an opponent and from his own promoters who were trying to hype him into being a star, so I think he could have felt pressure not just to fight, but to be great on that night."
In promoting Ortiz as the next big thing, the process may have been rushed and he may have been cast in a role he can't fill. "You can find somebody who might be a star, but you can't create a star," Merchant continued.
After he was dropped in the sixth round, Ortiz startled observers when he appeared to walk away from the referee with an 'I have-had-enough' expression and a no-mas wave of his hand. If people were taken aback by that, seconds before the bout was officially stopped because of a cut, they were shocked by his comments.
"I'm not going to go out on my back," Ortiz said in a televised post-fight interview. "I'm not going to lay down for nobody. I'd rather just stop when I'm ahead. That way, I can speak well when I'm older. I'm young, but I don't think I deserve to get beat up like this. I've got a lot of thinking to do."
To Merchant, beyond the fact that fighters have had questionable moments and have later shown vast commitment, there's another reason to cut Ortiz some slack: Post-fight interviews are complicated moments.
"We all want to hear what fighters say right after the fights are over, whether they won or lost, and it can be fascinating because it is an emotional time," Merchant said. "For me, those interviews can be the most interesting ones, but we have to remember the circumstances, the adrenaline and the emotion. It can be one of the best or worst moments of a person's life."
Merchant recognizes that Ortiz said those things in a moment of frustration and disappointment.
"It's hard to imagine all the things going through his head," he said. "It was a hard fight and probably a lot harder than he expected. Maybe he let his guard down or maybe he was just discouraged that he couldn't give the fans what they were hoping to see or expecting to see, what they were led to expect.
"Do we wonder? Sure. How could we not? We can't say he won't go on and be great and we can't say that he will. He had never been in that kind of a big fight or in that kind of hard fight. You add it all up and say, 'Okay, I want to see how he deals with it in the future,' and give him another chance."
The choice Ortiz made generated the attention it did in part because it was unusual, Merchant thinks, while brave performances like Cotto's effort in earning a decision against Joshua Clottey are more expected. Cotto, cut over his right eye and struggling to see, regularly stepped back to wipe away blood.
"That is what fans want to see: fighters who are tested by their opponent, by circumstances or by both of those things and they respond like Cotto did," Merchant said. "If they are discouraged or worried or scared, they don't show it, and it seems to strengthen them to overcome what they're facing. It can be in adversity that there is a chance to be great. Miguel Cotto has shown us that he is someone with a great spirit and toughness."
In those respects, someone like the late Arturo Gatti.
From Merchant's perspective, raw-courage fighters like Gatti and the late Diego Corrales can generate an unusually close, caring reaction from people near and far.
"Nobody was ever a tougher warrior than Holyfield and, I think, Shane Mosley," Merchant said. "Those fighters and others have received the respect they deserve, but there is a type, like Corrales, like Gatti, that seem to resonate in a different way. They're what they endure and what they endure is uncommon."
To a man who's seen an incalculable number of fights and fighters, Gatti was like few others.
So often expansive in his thoughts, Merchant could only say of Gatti's death, "It was tragic and it broke my heart."
For Merchant, it was a cruel element in this never-ending novel. He reminds us that we don't know if we will see fighters touch their own hearts, put themselves on the line and touch our hearts, step back from the precipice or step too far.
"I think it really does come down to the fact that we want to see drama, and in those most compelling moments, how fighters react to adversity and challenge. Fighters like Gatti provide it, at times out of the ring as well, so there's a closer connection to fighters like that, a sense of compassion.
"Maybe they seem vulnerable."

Garbage and Shirley Manson swim into a 'Big Bright World' in new video
It may be a "Big Bright World," as the song's title indicates, but for the video for the tune, Garbage sees things pretty much in black and white, at least at the start.
[More after the jump...]
The song, which is the second European single from "Not Your Kind Of People," is a beautifully-shot visual feast that relies more on stunning imagery then any kind of linear story line. Lead singer Shirley Manson is in a church, perhaps in mourning since she appears to be in all black and in a veil, but other folks are falling into the water and seemingly drowning as they "rage against the dying light."
As the swimmers spin and twirl under water, colors start to explode breaking through the black and white. Manson, in the meantime, hangs out in a cemetery. Don't worry, we don't understand it either. And, yeah, there's also a cat.
A second single for the U.S. will be released shortly.
Do you think Manson is already dead or that she dies in the end?

SAMSUNG SyncMaster 931C named offical monitor of the 2006 World Cyber Games, the world's largest cyber gaming event, featuring one million players and competition from six continents — 931C to be featured at the upcoming USA Championship Final in Las Vegas
Samsung Electronics America has announced that the company's new SyncMaster 931C TFT LCD has been named the official monitor of the 2006 World Cyber Games.
The World Cyber Games is the world's largest cyber gaming event and the only single e-sports event organizing competition from six continents. In addition to the competition – which features nearly one million players competing against one another for the title of world champion in several events – the World Cyber Games is also a conference bringing together industry leaders and technology experts. Approximately 60 of the 931C monitors will be used by the competitors at the upcoming 2006 WCG USA Championship Final being held at the Aladdin Hotel – soon to be Planet Hollywood by Sheraton – in Las Vegas, September 15-17.
"We have a commitment to providing our competitors with the ultimate gaming environment and experience," said Michael Arzt, senior vice president and general manager of International Cyber Marketing USA, organizers of the World Cyber Games. "We are pleased to have the 931C as our official monitor and look forward to offering our gamers Samsung's cutting-edge display technology."
The 931C features 97 percent of the NTSC (National Television System Committee) color gamut for CCFL (Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp) displays. In addition to its wide color gamut, the SyncMaster 931C features notable specifications, including a 2000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, a fast 2ms (GTG) response time, 1280×1024 resolution, and 250 cd/m2 brightness. This allows the 931C to have outstanding color quality and a fast response time.
"We look forward to having the opportunity to show the World Cyber Games' competitors what the 931C can do," said Andrew Weis, product marketing manager, display products, Samsung Electronics America, Inc. "Not only are the color quality and response time perfect for gamers but, at $299.99 MSRP, the 931C is also an affordable way to improve the overall gaming experience."

Current And Former UMass Baseball Hurlers Earn All-Star Nods
July 14, 2009
AMHERST, Mass. - Former Minuteman Matt Torra's start in the double-A Southern League All-Star Game last night highlights a trio of current and former UMass baseball standouts to be named all-stars in their respective leagues this summer. Current Minutemen Nick Serino and Mike Gedman will play in upcoming all-star games in the NECBL and Northwoods summer leagues.
Torra, who pitched at UMass from 2003-2005, represented the Mobile BayBears in the Southern League All-Star Game on Monday night in Birmingham, Ala., as the starter for the South All-Stars. Though his squad dropped the game, 7-0, Torra was flawless in his inning on the hill, retiring all three batters he faced and recording two strikeouts.
Torra is currently 6-7 on the year with Mobile and has thrown 112.0 innings in 18 starts with two complete games and one shutout. He holds a 3.54 ERA and has struck out 64 batters, while walking 23.
A rising-junior left-handed pitcher for the Minutemen, Serino will represent the Lowell All-Americans in the New England Collegiate Baseball League (NECBL) All-Star Game on July, 18, at 6:30 p.m., at MacKenzie Stadium in Holyoke, Mass.
Serino, who has been seeing action as a member of Lowell's starting rotation this summer, has compiled a 2-2 record with a 1.60 ERA in 33.2 innings of work. He has 35 strikeouts to 15 walks and has held opposing hitters to a .159 average. The southpaw was named the NECBL Co-Pitcher of the Week this past Monday after striking out twelve in a complete game five-hit shutout against Vermont on July 9.
Gedman is playing for the Brainerd Lakes Area Lunkers and will be taking part in the Northwoods League All-Star Game as a member of the North Division All-Stars on Tuesday, July 21, in Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada.
Gedman came out of the bullpen for UMass in 2009, but has transitioned to the role of starting pitcher for the Lunkers in addition to seeing spot time at first base/DH. In this new role, Gedman has flourished as he holds a 3-1 record and a 2.53 ERA. Over his 46.1 innings, spanning seven starts, Gedman has struck out 32 and walked just seven.

So... Over the last 1 1/2 weeks, a new issue has developed. ĀAbout 20-30 minutes after I take my prenatal, I get sick. ĀNow, this is really starting to suck since my m/s was just starting to disappear.Ā
Now, before you suggest:
Taking it at different times of the dayĀ
Taking it with and without food
Trying a different prenatal
Taking it before going to be and hoping to sleep through the puking
Or any other ideas related to the prenatals... Know that I have already tried it.
I heard that you can take 2 Flinstone chewables and a folic acid and it works just as well
Any truth to this???Ā

PHILADELPHIA — There are no big surprises among the inactives for the Saints for Saturday night's wild-card playoff game with the Philadelphia Eagles in Lincoln Financial Field.
Saints coach Sean Payton listed running back Pierre Thomas as out for the game after Thomas missed practice all week with a chest injury that he sustained week against the Tampa Bay Bucs.
Linebacker Keyunta Dawson, who was added to the injury report on Friday with a calf injury that he's been dealing with for more than a month, is also inactive.
The other inactives are safety Isa Abdul-Quddus, defensive end Tyrunn Walker, wide receiver Nick Toon, cornerback Terrence Frederick and quarterback Ryan Griffin.
For the Eagles, only one player — center Julian Vandervelde (back) — is inactive because of injury.
The other inactives are wide receiver Damaris Johnson, cornerback Curtis Marsh, safety Keelan Johnson, tackle Dennis Kelly, running back Matthew Tucker and quarterback Matt Barkley.
Johnson is a native of Norco who played at Destrehan High School.

Episode 3. A Summer in New Jersey
Such a hot and hazy day... I don't even feel like riding. Anyway, my father says that I'm almost an accomplished horseman now, so I'll have "a headache" and stay in my room. I am now unpacking, finally, the trunk that arrived from London. It can only be Caldwell's production, this trunk, with funny notes tucked here and there, plus a teasing one about my hasty departure "like a thief in the night." As if it were my fault! At the very bottom I peek at an intriguing layer of papers, all mixed up. On top of them, my best friend's triumphant message: "New clues to the Temple Mystery!" Caldwell's goal in life, he used to say, was to discover my identity.
And so, not long after my departure, Caldwell took advantage of a brief trip by Headmaster Elphinston to his native Scotland and sneaked into his office through a window. He brought out a handful of letters all bearing the name Tempel, all written in Elphinston's beloved phonetic spelling. The correspondence was between our revered headmaster and his former right hand man, the Reverend Jonathan Odell, who sailed off to New Jersey eight years ago under the patronage of the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel. I see that Odell, too, has adopted the phonetic spelling — my Grandfather, of course, had to invent one of his own, but more of that later if I ever get to it. I opened one of the letters to see what Odell has to say about me.
"Govvernor Franklin is highly plezed widh dhe accounts yoo guiv ov dhe young Tempel; and begs dhat no expence, ov anny kind, may be spared in hiz edducacion."
"Aha!" exclaims my clever Caldwell. "And who is this 'Govvernor' who wants you so well educated? What does he know that we don' t know?" Caldwell, my old pal, I must tell you without further delay that the 'Govvernor' in question is my father, not an Arabian prince, or a maharajah, as you imagined, but the ruler of New Jersey who signs his official documents in the following manner:
"By His Excellency William Franklin, Esq, Captain General and Governor in Chief In and over the Province of Nova-Caesarea or New Jersey, and Territories there on depending in America, Chancellor and Vice-Admiral in the same, etc."
Not bad, eh? Now I am dying to know what that "etc." at the end stands for. Give me time.
Back to the trunk. Next I found a letter from 1771, from Elphinston to Odell. I must have been eleven by then. He says "Nor must I omit dhe verry successfool, and daily more promissing Tempel hoo wil doutles repay evvery pains, and proov wordhy hiz distinguished frends." This is pure Elphinston, not to be taken too seriously. He assured all parents that their child was a genius, so everybody was happy, while his Kensington School prospered. Luckily for us, the kind man did not believe in corporal punishment. Caldwell and I did our mischief in peace.
And in 1772 ... more praise! "Dear Tempel becoms daily hwat hiz wisest frends wish. Hiz understanding and temper excellent: hiz advancement dherfore ampel, widhout prematurity."
What does he mean, no prematurity? That I'm slow, retarded?
The following year: "Dear Tempel rizes a noble fellow..." Oh no, please! I wasn't noble, I broke a number of school rules. I paw through more papers... Here's a recent one, January 1774. Elphinston to Odell: "Verry real sattisfaccion doz dhe doctor expres in dhe advancement ov Tempel, nor perhaps dhe les, dhat, without prematurity (hwich seldom prommises) dhe sprightly and goodnatured littel fellow (by no means littel for his age, or littel in my eyes) bespeaks alreddy various ingenuity. He dances, plays, and draws uncommonly, he can indeed take anny likenes. Nor must you fancy him engroced by dhe ellegant arts. He haz had dhe onnor of introduccion to Cezar, Virgil, Horrace, and dhe Greek testament..."
So it pops up again, the lack of prematurity! Obviously an asset in the Headmaster's eye, or is he fooling himself in that as in so many other respects?
If he could see me now, trying to thread my way not only through what Father calls "the unnatural disputes between Britain and her colonies" but also through the rival factions in America, Grandfather's Patriots (also known as Rebels) versus Father's Loyalists! "Littel Tempel" is growing up fast-and sometimes painfully.
Elphinston, I now realize, knew perfectly who I was and so did Odell.
But I found still more in the trunk. A last, hasty scrap from Caldwell reads: "Elphinston is the brother of Mrs. Margaret Strahan." Not much on the surface but perhaps the key to my earliest childhood. William Strahan and his family were Grandfather's closest friends in London. He had corresponded with Strahan long before going to England himself, both of them being printers and doing business together. When they finally met in London, Grandfather was so taken with that whole family that he contemplated a marriage between Aunt Sally and the Strahan son. The problem was that Deborah, my non-grandmother, could not bring herself to leave Philadelphia, let alone allow their daughter to cross the Ocean, so the project was abandoned. Nobody, of course, asked Sally for her opinion. She certainly would have had a more interesting and brilliant life in London, especially after Strahan the elder became a member of Parliament.
Back to baby Temple (me!) who had to be taken care of after his father married the glamorous Elizabeth Downes, daughter of a Barbados planter, and sailed with her to America. The unwanted child by another woman must have been entrusted to the Strahan circle that included a Mrs. Woolford. That Mrs. Woolford used to visit us on Craven Street, always fussing over me, bringing me a present, calling me her darling little protégé, to my vague irritation. And now Mrs. Stevenson, in her last letter, urges me to write to Mrs. Woolford (my surrogate mother?). The pieces of the puzzle are coming together.
I lie down on my bed and try to remember my hazy life in London before boarding school. Much more vivid than Mrs. Woolford is the image of Mammy Thackeray, a loud and jolly black woman dressed in bright clothes. I think I remember her picking me up and hugging me tight. I think I remember a vivid blue necklace that I tried to put in my mouth. Or is it all a dream? Could Mammy Thackeray have been my nurse? Was I tucked into bed, after all, when I was very small?
Enough brainwork. Better take a nap. The True Conduct Of Persons of Quality that my father left beside my bed will help me doze off in no time.

Fifty years ago this coming Thursday Lyndon Baines Johnson launched the program known as the Great Society.
"The Great Society," Johnson said that day in a commencement address at the University of Michigan, "rests on abundance and liberty for all. It demands an end to poverty and racial injustice, to which we are totally committed in our time. But that is just the beginning. The Great Society is a place where every child can find knowledge to enrich his mind and to enlarge his talents. It is a place where leisure is a welcome chance to build and reflect, not a feared cause of boredom and restlessness. It is a place where the city of man serves not only the needs of the body and the demands of commerce but the desire for beauty and the hunger for community. It is a place where man can renew contact with nature. It is a place which honors creation for its own sake and for what is adds to the understanding of the race. It is a place where men are more concerned with the quality of their goals than the quantity of their goods."
"Today," according to The Washington Post, "the laws enacted between 1964 and 1968 are woven into the fabric of American life, in ways big and small. They have knocked down racial barriers, provided health care for the elderly and food for the poor, sustained orchestras and museums in cities across the country, put seat belts and padded dashboards in every automobile." As one LBJ aide, Joseph Califano, put it, "We are living in Lyndon Johnson's America. This country is more the country of Lyndon Johnson than any other president."
Yet today it is also fashionable to bash the Great Society, and it is probably fair to say that most, if not every, political battle currently raging is rooted in the Great Society's expansion of government.
Ronald Reagan based much of his conservative agenda on opposition to LBJ's programs. "The press is dying to paint me as now trying to undo the New Deal," Reagan confided in his diary in 1982. "I remind them I voted for F.D.R. 4 times. I'm trying to undo the 'Great Society,' It was L.B.J.'s war on poverty that led to our present times."
Of course, neither Reagan nor successor Republican presidents have succeeded in fundamentally eradicating Great Society programs. But failure has never stopped the GOP, and prominent Republicans continue to assert, as Florida Senator Marco Rubio recently did, "Isn't it time to declare big government's war on poverty a failure?" (The War on Poverty was one part of the Great Society.)
Prodded by LBJ, the 89th Congress, which sat from January 1965 to January 1967, passed over 200 major pieces of legislation.
The accomplishments were many, too many to detail fully here. Some of the highlights include the Civil Rights Act of 1964 outlawing discrimination in public accommodations based on race, color, national origin, religion, or sex; the Voting Rights Act a year later, parts of which the Supreme Court overturned a year ago, guaranteeing all Americans equal access to the voting booth; Head Start, which has educated more than 31 million underprivileged children under the age of five; and the Air Quality Act, which launched the federal government's efforts to cleanup the environment.
Perhaps the most significant action undertaken under the rubric of the Great Society was the creation of Medicare, the health insurance program for the elderly. It's only today, 50 years later, that the federal government has undertaken to do for all Americans what Medicare does for those over 65. Perversely, it's senior citizens, exhibiting hypocrisy and ignorance, who rank among the bitterest critics of the Affordable Care Act: Hypocrisy because they would deny access to affordable medical care, which Medicare gives them, to other Americans, and ignorance because Medicare, primarily a single-payer system, is far more progressive than the ACA, which creates exchanges in which consumers buy insurance from private companies rather than a government-administered health-care system.
The Great Society's accomplishments were, well, great. Unfortunately, the desire to accomplish great things, given impetus when LBJ became president after the assassination of John F. Kennedy, waned in the mud of Vietnam.
Great problems remain, many of which stem from the shirking of governmental responsibility for the national well-being and the concomitant political drift to the right. Deregulation has given corporate America increasing power, and the shifting of the tax burden to the middle and lower classes has created income inequality rivaling that of the Gilded Age of the late 19th century.
LBJ knew the domestic accomplishments of the 1960s were only a beginning. "Most of all," he said in Ann Arbor that May day fifty years ago, "the Great Society is not a safe harbor, a resting place, a final objective, a finished work. It is a challenge constantly renewed, beckoning us toward a destiny where the meaning of our lives matches the marvelous products of our labor."

Sunflowers and your face fascinate me
You love only the tallest trees
I come running down the hill
But you're fast-you're the winner
Long distance winner
Not unlike the blue-white fire
You burn brightly in spite of yourself
I bring the water down to you
But you're too hot to touch
You're too hot to touch
Love somebody.....save their soul
Tie them to your heaven.....erase their hell
Save their lifestyle...if you feel it
But don't try to change them...you never will
Sunflowers and your face fascinate me
You go into the dusty-pink day
I come calling unto you
But you're fast - you're the winner
Long distance winner

I'm trying to migrate various services from a physical Debian Squeeze box to a number of para-virtualised Xen machines. This is my first venture into Xen, so I'm planning on doing this step by step:
- Install a clean Xen + Debian Squeeze Dom0 on to the box
- Make sure I can install and run new DomUs (xen-tools)
- Convert to original physical install (called Kowalski) to a DomU
- Move services from Kowalski to new DomUs, until Kowalski isn't doing anything any more.
- Retire Kowalski
Steps 1 and 2 have gone fine. I'm having trouble on 3.
Basically I've:
- Copied the old Physical partitions to LVM logical volumes
- Created a kowalski.cfg for Xen that maps these LVs to xvda devices
- Edited the fstab to use the xvda devices.
It boots, but during the start-up scripts eventually hangs with init reporting that 'T0' is re-spawning too quickly so it's killing it.
Any suggestions on debug techniques? what I might have missed?
As I say, this is my first venture into Xen and I'm finding it difficult to get a handle on what's going wrong.

While we owe many modern day advance to making our lives easier it has also made it harder for us to eat a healthy diet. In fact, modernization has made our food supply abundant and convenient while lacking a lot of the nutrients we need to keep our bodies running strong. Fortunately, we also have access to an array of vitamins and supplements to help fill in the gaps. While the best way to get your vitamins and minerals is through a healthy balanced diet here are the top five supplements that you may need.
Omega 3 is important for brain health and cell function. Unfortunately, it comes up short in the average diet. This fatty acid can be found in seafood, flaxseed oil and spinach to name a few sources. Omega 3 is not produced in the body so it has to come from food sources and supplementation.
Vitamin D plays a major role in bone materialization, calcium absorption and mood health. Food sources like mushrooms are packed with vitamin D. Your body can also produce it by spending some time in the sun but many people just don't get enough.
Calcium is not just for women; as we age we all need it to prevent brittle bones and children need it to grow. Calcium can come from dark leafy greens, black eyed peas and almonds. It's estimated that over half of people in the U.S. are calcium deficient.
Vitamin B is another popular supplement choice. Hectic lifestyles and a less than healthy diet can lead to fatigue and many people swear by vitamin B to help put the spring back in their step. Some opposing experts argue that this only works if you're deficient in vitamin B in the first place but, since it aids in metabolism, the way your body uses food for energy, it couldn't hurt to top up. Good sources include organic eggs meat and dairy.
Probiotics are a good bacteria found in the digestive tract that helps keep things moving in the right direction, another valuable commodity to the modern diet. It can be found in most yogurts but if you're not a fan, there are many supplements available in pill form.
Whether you choose to supplement or select healthy sources of these top five nutrients it's important to stay ahead of the game when it comes to your health. Knowing what you need and how to get it can go a long way to helping you stay strong and healthy.

Coverage: Because he spent his first two years as an end, Houston had minimal experience in coverage. As a standup rush end in 2010, Houston dropped back in zone some. Because of his athleticism, he doesn't get totally overmatched covering an area. However, he doesn't have the experience needed to play in man coverage.
Instincts/Recognition: Houston gets such a good jump because he's able time the snap count really well. Uses his jump to get the power advantage on offensive linemen. Will be a work in progress recognizing passing routes.
Pass rush: Houston's best asset as a pass rusher is his ability to get off the snap and to the edge. Is best rushing to the outside where he can get low and work under the tackle. Wasn't used a lot working the inside lane. Needs to develop a counter move. Hand usage could be better, which is a reason why he's better suited as a linebacker. Played as a standup rush end in Georgia's 3-4 in 2010. Played end previously.
Pursuit: Has good initial step and move which allows him to get outside the blocker. As good as his first step is, you'd expect Houston to have better closing ability. He's not as violent of a closer as you'd expect.
Run defense: Houston struggles against the run when he has to change direction in short areas. Is a little tight in the hips. Where he does do well here is locating the ball and getting after it. Has enough upper body strength to handle ball carriers in the open field. Is a solid form tackler.
Strength: If Houston is being considered as a linebacker, his strength is ready for the NFL. He just needs to figure out how to better use his hands to get the most out of his strength. If Houston is used as an end, he may have to get stronger in his lower body.
Final word: Houston is a good speed rusher when he gets a good jump off the snap. He has NFL size and enough athleticism to play outside in the 3-4. Against the run, Houston is only average and he's a work in progress in pass coverage. Had 17.5 sacks in his last two seasons at Georgia.

"Revenge" fans were surprised when David Clarke appeared on the season 3 finale. Avenging his wrongful imprisonment and death was what Emily was fighting for all these years. Now that he has shown up alive, will he be the same man that Emily remembers? According to a May 28 report by Enstars, he will not be the same.
David Clarke, played by James Tupper, will not be the same man Emily or anyone else remembers. Victoria did tell Emily that her childhood version of David was not the same man she knew. But spoiler reports are saying that he will even be changed in Victoria's eyes, which doesn't sound good for his enemies.
So how will he be changed and will this affect how Emily views him? It's hard to predict how Emily Thorne (Emily VanCamp) will react to her father being alive. One part of her will be overjoyed at having him back. On the other hand, will she be confused and maybe even angry that she spent all that time alone, being an orphan in the state's custody?
David Clarke's first item on his list was to kill Conrad Grayson (Henry Czerny.) Even though it has been teased that Conrad isn't actually dead, fans will have to wait for the "Revenge" season 4 premiere to find out for sure. Executive producer Sunil Nayar told E!,
"He [David Clarke] is, of anybody that can come walking into the Hamptons, he is the game changer and we felt the best way to bring him back to the Hamptons is when we reintroduce him, you realize this man is no longer about forgiveness, that revenge has become a part of his makeup."
But that isn't all. It was also revealed that David Clarke's return to the Hamptons will also open up an "entirely new can of worms." Nayar teased that the man that both Emily and Victoria (Madeleine Stowe) thought they knew, isn't the person that he is at all. Everybody is going to want to know where he has been and what he has been doing.
One question fans have been asking is why David killed Conrad first before finding his daughter. In the comments section of a TV Line article, a fan brought up a good point. His daughter is Amanda Clarke and she is deceased. Even though Emily Thorne is the real Amanda Clarke, David might not know that. Perhaps he will try to get justice for his daughter's "death?"
What do you think David Clarke's storyline will be on "Revenge" season 4? How will Emily handle her father actually being alive?

Walter Ibarra's two-out, RBI single led the Albuquerque Isotopes to a 3-2 victory over the visiting Reno Aces on Saturday night. Albuquerque rebounded from an 8-3 loss on Friday in the series opener.
The Isotopes (23-26) saw their first two batters in the ninth strike out. Pinch hitter Alex Liddi and Miguel Rojas then hit back-to-back singles.
Mike Baxter was hit by a pitch to load the bases, setting the stage for Ibarra. The second baseman lined a single to right field, scoring Liddi with the winning run.
Jamie Romak had hit a solo home run in the second inning to give Albuquerque a brief lead. Trayvon Robinson's RBI single in the fourth made it 2-0. Reno (28-22) rallied for two runs in the seventh to tie the game, including a solo homer by Andy Marte.
Sam Demel pitched five scoreless innings for the Isotopes, allowing just one hit and two walks while striking out four batters. Matt Magill (3-2) earned the win with 1.1 innings of scoreless relief.
Albuquerque and Reno will meet again Sunday at 6:05 p.m. The Isotopes will send Carlos Frias (2-2, 6.91 ERA) to the mound against the Aces' Zeke Spruill (2-1, 4.72).
