| Champions Egypt crush Ivory Coast
Sunday's final will be a rematch of the teams' opening Group C clash in the competition which the Pharoahs won 4-2. Egypt went ahead after 12 minutes through Ahmed Fathy, whose shot took a deflection. Amr Zaky extended the lead in the 62nd minute before Kader Keita reduced the tally for the Ivorians a minute later. Zaky restored the two-goal cushion in the 67th minute before Mohamed Aboutrika completed the rout in stoppage time when he smashed the ball into the roof of the net from a pass by substitute Mohamed Zidan. This semifinal was a rematch of the 2006 final and it lived up to its billing with five goals and end-to-end action. Ivory Coast created the first surprise of the night when they started Arsenal center-half Kolo Toure, who suffered a groin injury against Benin in a group game and was understood to have played his last match of the competition.

I've been snowmobiling since 1964 and the trails have never been better for seeing our beautiful winter wonderland. The bars who support the sport are doing their best to provide their clients with food, hot drinks,gas, and a place to warm up and rest for a while. People who choose to drink and drive their snowmobiles are the ones who might do the same in a car, on a motorcyle, and even a bicycle. The cities need to make it more accessible for snowmobilers to get to restaurants, gas, motels. All we've seen on reporting is negative reporting. Clubs donate thousands of dollars in fund raisers, the sport employes thousands of people, we've seen families of 3 and 4 generations out snowmobiling. When snows are deep you'd be surpized on how many deer can walk on a trail and fill their bellies. Go for a drive past some bars and see how many drove in a car and how are they getting home after being there a few hours.

Pregnant HALLE BERRY is winning her battle with diabetes, thanks to a healthy diet and good living. The actress was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes after she passed out while shooting a TV show called Living Dolls when she first arrived in Hollywood. But the disease has now dropped to Type 2 diabetes because Berry is no longer "insulin dependent".
