Back at the Allstate Arena. Tonight is the first night (of 3) that the Wolves are wearing their St. Patrick's Day jerseys that will be auctioned for charity. Two jersey's are already at $1,000. This year they also have a goalie mask that Norm Maracle was supposed to wear, but is a bit too tight. The Ducks are 12th in the playoffs, so they're out of contention, but they sure played hard enough. The game was pretty rocky, and they outshot us for most of the game. We had a few sweet goals, but it still looked like a struggle at times, even against the worst Power Play team in the league. There was a breakaway by Tony Martensson on the Ducks that was really stunning - this guy was fast, though Norm still stopped him. I suppose it didn't help that the Wolves were at the legal minimum number of players due to injuries and call-ups. Hey, at least we got through it. Officiating was very level, too. They let the guys play, they just clamped down on the fighting which is OK in my book. It was consistent, which is all you can ask for. Good job by Dean Morton.

I just got my CNN Breaking News email: Missing teenager Elizabeth Smart found alive in Salt Lake City suburb, police say.
She's been missing since June 5, 2002.
WOW.
Salt Lake City
Today, March 12th at approximately 13:00 hrs Sandy Police received a call from two citizens reporting a possible sighting of the male suspect that was wanted for questioning by Salt Lake City Police in the Elizabeth Smart case. Officers responded to the area of 10200 S State and located a male and two females at the side of the road.

CNN has an article on how WiFi is finally coming to the forefront, including a link to Wi-Fi ZONE™ to find access points.
