Mistake

I wrote a blog for my Outlaw Trail blog and put it on this blog by mistake. Sorry. If you want to read it, go here.

Sushi platter feats ice sledge hockey team

The rolls feature red tuna and chutoro tuna wrapped in rice and salmon. Caviar makes a nice puck, and celery carved into hockey sticks top out the plate. Available in Vancouver at Kamei Royal, 1030 Georgia Street, Vancouver. Available from March 24. Thanks guys for saluting the silver medalists!

Ota gains silver on the final day

The skier's blog tells us that Shoko Ota earned a silver medal in the 1km sprint. She got bronze at Torino but stepped up to silver at Vancouver. Well done. Congrats to the Hitachi Ski Club. Information from the Hitachi System Ski Blog http://www.skiblog.jp/archives/2010/03/post_912.html.

Photos of the ice sledge hockey medal awards and action shots

I got up early in the morning to watch these modern day samurai take on the American powerhouse. Japan's team did a credible job against the more experienced Americans, but their biggest kudo was beating the Canadian team on its home turf. The Japanese team can bear their silver medals home with tremendous pride.

Ice Sledge Hockey

USA Gold, Japan Silver. Good game!

Japan alpine skiers get silver and bronze

NPO STAND's collaboration site with Seijun Ninomiya had this photo of the alpine skiers medal ceremony. Silver medal to Hiroki Morii, Bronze medal to Toru Karino. Sorry if I get the names wrong, there are so many ways to read Japanese names. See the original photo on this site.

Ice Sledge Hockey Finals on NHK

Freelance writer Miharu Araki is a big ice sledge hockey fan. She says NHK will broadcast the ice sledge hockey finals between Japan and USA here in Japan live. That puts the time at 3:45 a.m. on Sunday March 21. Can't decide whether to go to sleep and get up or just stay up all night. Time will tell. Fantastic job by the ice sledge team! They can hold their heads high, win or lose.
