| Joe Cole gives Chelsea final glow
A 1-0 victory at Goodison Park earned Chelsea a 3-1 aggregate semi-final win over Everton and left Grant, who had suggested that the Merseyside club’s need was by far the greater, to launch a strong defence of his brief reign. Since losing his first match in charge, against Manchester United in September, his team have been beaten once in 27 matches in all competitions and, after Joe Cole’s superbly taken goal had confirmed their place at Wembley on February 24, the Chelsea first-team coach suggested it was time they were given a little recognition. "I think everyone needs to see what Chelsea is doing in the last few months," Grant said. "It’s not just in the league or the Champions League, we’re also in the Carling Cup final now. Most of the people thought we wouldn’t succeed, but now we’re at Wembley, we’re four points from the top of the league and we’re in the last 16 of the Champions League.
Software Update: Microsoft Offers Free Apology Token for Xbox Live ...
While Microsoft's Xbox Live online system is generally reliable, Xbox 360 gamers found throughout the holidays less than satisfactory service. Gamers widely reported problems using Xbox Live, which Microsoft said was caused by the influx of new subscribers. "As a result of this massive increase in usage we know that some of you experienced intermittent Xbox LIVE issues over the holiday break," said Marc Whitten, general manager for Xbox Live, earlier this month. "While the service was not completely off-line at any given time, we are disappointed in our performance." Microsoft promised all Xbox Live users, both new and old, compensation for the downtime in the form of a full Xbox Live Arcade game that will be available for download free of charge. Today, Microsoft's Gamerscore Blog revealed that the free game available to all Silver and Gold Xbox Live members will be Undertow.
Suns notebook: Shipping Thomas a sound move
Skinner makes $1.1 million this year, while Thomas would have cost Phoenix $16 million in salary and taxes. But Thomas isnt helping to make that argument stronger as he is posting a strong performance in his first and perhaps only season as a Sonic. After missing nine of the first 12 games with nagging injuries and watching most of Seattles 2-14 start, Thomas has given the Sonics all they could ask for by grabbing 9.7 rebounds in just more than 24 minutes a game, helping the team play close to .500 ball over the past 15 games (7-8). In the past four games coming into Thursday, he had 52 rebounds more than one out of every four the Sonics had. That would translate to 19 boards per 48 minutes for Thomas who has had 10 double-figure rebound games and set a career high with 16 defensive rebounds against Indiana on Nov.

BROOKE HOGAN LEAVES SCOTT STORCH?
I don't know what kind of contract Brooke Hogan had with Scott Storch. I would assume the Hulkster can get her out off any contract –even Scott Storch. Well, Brooke has a myspace page that has her record label status as, “Trying to find a good one!" She signed to Scott Storch's Storchavelli Records in 2006 and hasn't done a lot musically.
