dave feldman is next with sports. >>> good evening. i'm dave feldman. the high in tampa is supposed to be 91 degrees tomorrow, which is nothing compared to the heat the caps are feeling down 2-0 to the lightning and heading to florida for games 3 and 4, not necessarily done but certainly dicey. caps practiced this morning at kettler well aware back in 2003 the caps won the first two games against tampa in tampa in the playoff game, but the lightning rallied to take four straight and win the series. so why not pull the old reversal? games 3 and 4 are back to back games. >> if we can go to town and win that first one, win tuesday and now maybe we have some momentum and play back to back nights and try and make it tough on them again wednesday. you never know what can happen. the series isn't over yet. >> we've got an opportunity to do what they just did to us and that's win two games in their building. so go to work tomorrow night and take it from there. >> game 3 tomorrow night in tampa. lindsay murphy will be there. >>> for the nats they were looking to

i'm dave feldman. we are now officially in a dicey situation. trailing three games to nothing with the potential season ender tomorrow in attach a. this is not how the caps -- tampa. this is not how the caps postseason was supposed to play out, alex ovechkin with only one point in the first two games, 2nd period tied at one. jason chimera to john carlson who blasts one past dwayne roloson, carlson's first to the playoffs and second career postseason goal. caps up 2-1. now late 2nd caps with a two-man advantage. mike greene fires, rebound is loose and ovie's got another point, his 25th career playoff goal gives the caps a 3-2 lead but in the 3rd period the tide would turn. steven stamkos gets possession, second of the series, game tied at three. 24 seconds later the lightning back in it and back at it. nate thomson's centering pass deflects pass michal neuvirth. lightning take a 4-3 lead and that's your final. lindsay murphy with more from tampa. >> reporter: down 0-3 in the series the caps' backs are definitely against the wall. only three teams

dave feldman is next. eanc >> good evening, i'm dave feldman. fans are concerned. two years ago, they trailed the new york rangers 2 games to nothing. after dropping the first two at verizon center and didn't come back to win there. there is a precedent and no panic yet. lindsay murphy with more from tampa. >> reporter: feldy, tonight it's really important for the capitals before the first goal of the game and in eight meetings this season with tampa, they scored first once. it's important not only for their confidence into the game down 0-2 but bruce boudreau said it allows to you control the tempo of the game. the caps hit the ice at the same time at 11:00 a.m. this morning and down 0-2 in the series, they need to get the power play working. the caps arrived in tampa and not in a panic but knowing work needs to be done. >> and both games are tight and close and a tweak here and there, it would be a different series and they're ready to play. >> you have to play angry and on edge and this is play-off hockey. you can't think too far ahead. >> you are desperate to s

i'm dave feldman.e know that three teams in the nhl history came back from a deficit to win the best-of-7 series. 1942, 1975, 2010 and happens on average, every 34 years. the caps scored three second- period goals to take a 3-2 lead last night in tampa. the third goal coming on a 5-on- 3 power play, courtesy of alex ovechkin. the caps only power play goal in the series in 16 attempts. and third period breaks down and with that centering pass in front and off the skate for the game winner and. >> reporter: after two periods, leading 3-2 n. a span of 24 seconds, it fell a part and is not, deal to fall behind. coach budreaux, what is the plan from here on out. >> you don't think of it as four but one, four seems like a daunting task and one doesn't seem as daunting. so, and if you get successful, you look at one more. >> lay it on the line tonight and it's a couple of days off and do the same thing, you know and -- we be a team to put forward together and have nothing else to do. >> we have been with a go

. >>> i'm dave feldman live at verizon. the caps won -- they lost game one 4-2.hey face a must win. special teams throughout. final 30 seconds of the game one, a 2-2 game. lightning on the power play. this proved to be the game winner. something i spoke to carl about, the power play a short time ago. >> carl tampa has nine power play goals in the postseason more than any other team. simple to say stop the power play. that has to be one of the keys for you guys. >> yeah. this whole series will be about special teams. we got to make sure that we are doing everything we can being in the right spot, pressuring them when they score their goal. when i was out there, i don't think i pressured enough. we have to make sure that we are the ones outworking them. whether it's power play or five on five for that matter -- >> you get john carlson back. >> he is huge. all sides of the game. he does a good job out there. he gets the puck down the ice every time when he gets an opportunity. he's not one of those guys that -- it's important to have him out there. >> you dropped th

fox 5's dave ross, sports director dave feldman were there.ey join us live to talk about the amazing experiences. >> it's one of the most surreal events i've been do, impromptu, no way you could predict this. we were at the caps game, i see on twitter osama bin laden has been killed. i'm like what's going on. caps are in significant at this point? i think we have to get to the white house. we were literally when we got there, we're listening to the president speak on the radio, looking at the white house, okay, thinking he's speaking right inside of there. as we're trying to park by the white house there are people literally everywhere running to the white house, cheering, obviously you saw, flags flying. people, you know, literally wrapped up in the american flag, climbing on light posts, trying to get a flag up. feldman and i are sitting there, thinking this is absolutely incredible. it was so neat to see people of all creeds, colors and races out there celebrating a historic moment. forget about party politics if you will for a moment and j

. >> susie: joining us now for more analysis on the rajaratnam verdict, steven feldman, former assistant u.s. prosecutor for new york's securities and commodities fraud task force and now a white collar criminal defense attorney at herrick, feinsteen. steven, nice to have you with us. >> hi, susie. >> susie: were you surprised by the verdict, guilty on call counts? >> no. this was a case in which the government had extremely strong evidence. they had during the course of the actual crime recorded the tapes of multiple phone calls, then they arrested his confidant, the people who worked with him, they were able to use all those people against raj, so, and they had narrators to explain what was going on. it was an overwhelming case of evidence by the government. >> susie: and it was an overwhelmingly decisive verdict on all counts. so what impact is this going to have on insider trading? does it stop this kind of behavior? >> absolutely, the government creates disincentives for people who were thinking of crossing the line. that's the point of this kind of case, is to do deterrence. i thin

protection does take priority in the feldman home, but greg has another important reason for checkingom the road. >> if it's a little slow and i've got a moment, i certainly would like to login and see if nolan is playing on the swings. it's fun to be able to log in and see if he's on the front lawn or on the back lawn playing. >> some of the other remote services including custom notifications, when a child comes home or when there's a flood perhaps in your house. for the adt pulse system, prices start at $424 for installation and about $47 a month after that. >>> if you are looking for a house on the peninsula perhaps, we know a place you can grab one for under $100,000. sort of. here's the catch. these are children's play houses. and they cost a fortune. contractors donate their time and money and the non-profit called rebuilding together peninsula auctions them off. there's a firehouse. believe it or not, they sell for anywhere from $10,000 to $80,000. 100% of the money goes to help. you can go to the rebuilding together peninsula website for more information and i'll be there hel

charles feldman is an investigative recover, that followed schwarzenegger's groping scandal in 2003. >> one of the things i was looking into at the time was allegations he had a child out of wedlock. whether this is the same child we are talking about now is not clear. >> reporter: feldman says schwarzenegger's revelation will dredge up some very serious questions. >> where did the money come from to support the child? did he use state funds? did he use his own funds? did he report the income or the outflow of money on his tax forms. >> reporter: and did maria shriver know? many say she must have known in 2003. that's when schwarzenegger made a public apology, when more than a dozen women accused him of touching them. >> now, we're looking at a pattern. a pattern that's gone over at least 35 years. and under those circumstances, the public is probably a lot less likely. >> reporter: especially after seeing the celebrity couple in the spotlight after 25 years of marriage. a nationally renowned psychologist on love and marriage, brenda wade, said the children probably didn't know about

>>feldman: we still have two large parties that are at first very, very competitive. really rather at each other's throats in the policy debates. and in addition, both parties themselves are split on many of the policy issues. so if one party is not united, and the other party is not united, how do you get a deal between the two of them? so i think the locals looked at that notion of a trigger forrevival and thought, it's a nice fantasy, but they don't expect it to be coming any time soon. >>reporter: damage to supply chains, which triggered shortages in the auto and electronics sectors, is only one of the many stiff hurdles the world's third largest economy is having to overcome... repairing roads, bridges and other facilities - is estimated to cost as much as $300 billion. >>the march 11 disaster - known here as 3-11, has also taken a heavy toll on business investment andhousehold spending. factory production fell 15 percent and household spending was down almost nine percent in march - the sharpest declines on record. >>schulz: this is what we really had to learn a

it banned drilling below 500 feet of water for six months, but judge feldman put it on hold because he found that under federal law it had failed to properly weigh a number of factors, including the economic impact it would have on the industry and surrounding communities. and i might add in a hearing we had in the senate about the administration decision to place the moratorium, in effect, it was shocking to hear administration officials say very directly no holds bar that they never considered any economic impact in the decision whatsoever. now, again, this failing to properly weigh the economic impact of the decision has been a chronic problem in some agencies like the e.p.a. unfortunately this administration seems to have brought that same knee-jerk reaction of the interior problem with the same economic illiteracy. in the interior department's infinite wisdom on july 12th, secretary salazar issued a backup second moratorium. the courts struck down the first moratorium on the basis of existing federal law so he just came and issued a second moratorium on deepwater drilling. this se
