So close to the Super Bowl, yet so far. Wide receiver Tiquan Underwood was released by the New England Patriots on Saturday night, less than 24 hours before Super Bowl XLVI -- bad news for him, of course, but a move that increases the likelihood Chad Ochocinco will be active against the New York Giants in Indianapolis. The Patriots signed defensive end Alex Silvestro from their practice squad to take Underwood's roster spot. "Silvestro is a defensive end/tackle. They'll utilize him especially on rushing downs in a four-man front over the guard," NFL Network's Michael Lombardi said Saturday on "NFL...

Due to an ongoing dispute between Time-Warner and my local NBC affiliate KRIS, NBC is not currently carried on my cable system. It's pretty likely this dispute won't be resolved before the Super Bowl next weekend, so I want to find out what model of antennas, I should buy in order to watch the Super Bowl next week. I bought a Terk amplified antenna prior to the Houston Texan's game in the first round, and it didn't work at all. The clerk at the return desk at Best Buy said that lots of people were returning that model.

CORPUS CHRISTI — Candidate: Solomon Ortiz Jr. Medium: online newsletter, dated Jan. 24 Claim 1: "The United States Department of Justice is concerned that the Republican-drawn map violates the rights of voters in House District 33, my old seat. Our very own delegation even voted to erase the local district!" Fact check: True. House District 33 vanished, its precincts folded into Rep. Todd Hunter's District 32 or Rep. Connie Scott's District 34, under the map that Torres, Scott and Hunter all voted for during the 82nd legislative session. The map has faced legal challenges under federal voting laws from the...

Airbus has traced the source of the cracking in A380 wing structures to unexpected additional stresses imparted by the manufacturing process, and is confident that its original flight loading calculations for the type are accurate. The airframer is in the process of changing the manufacturing process and has developed a fix for affected aircraft, as the European Aviation Safety Agency prepares to instruct operators to conduct precautionary inspections. But Airbus emphasises that the cracking problem - while needing to be addressed, to avoid longer-term issues - is not a safety risk in the short- to medium-term. The cracks were originally...

This and incredibly wild game. There is already an Alamo Bowl record for combined points in a half (59) and combined points in a game (102). There is likely to be a new record for combined yards in any bowl game and combined points in a game.

The Texas redistricting process has now been marred by a conflict of interest. Since the conflict favors liberals, the media has been as quiet as a mouse (the latest media dereliction of duty). Here’s how your Texas media isn’t serving you: The United States judicial code provides for the disqualification of a judge if his spouse or a person within the third degree of relationship to either individual is a party to the proceeding. Democrat legislators sued to have maps drafted during the session disqualified and redrawn by judges. Democrat Senator Leticia Van De Putte is the sister-in-law of one...

At nearly seven hours, US Airways flight 901 is one of the longest domestic nonstop airline flights. And Arthur Berkowitz knows how long it takes to get from Anchorage to Philadelphia down to the minute. That’s because he says he had to stand for most of the flight when he returned to Philly last July. Why would anyone stand for that long? Because he says a morbidly obese passenger seated next to him was spilling into his personal space, making it impossibly to sit in his assigned seat, and the flight was completely full. “I didn’t fly from Alaska to...

Andy Rooney, whose prickly wit was long a mainstay of CBS News and whose homespun commentary on “60 Minutes,” delivered every week from 1978 until 2011, made him a household name, died Friday in New York City. He was 92 and lived in Manhattan, though he kept a family vacation home in Rensselaerville, N.Y., and the first home he ever purchased, in Rowayton, Conn. CBS News said in a statement that Mr. Rooney died after complications following minor surgery. In late September, CBS announced that Mr. Rooney would be making his last regular weekly appearance on “60 Minutes” on Oct....

Luxury cruise company Cunard has announced its ships will stop sailing under the British flag. The company said it was being done to allow weddings to be held on board as ships registered in the UK cannot conduct marriages. The company's three ships Queen Mary 2, Queen Victoria and Queen Elizabeth will instead fly the flag of Bermuda. The port of Hamilton will also replace the name of Southampton on the stern from next spring. 'No difference' Weddings performed by captains at sea under current English law are not legal because the law states that marriages must be held in...

Was this Gaddafi's grisly end? Picture claimed to be Libyan dictator after he was killed when rebels finally captured his last stronghold Slumped against the bloodied legs of a revolutionary fighter, this is the picture which Libyan rebels say confirms that deposed leader Muammar Gaddafi has been killed. The former Libyan dictator was reportedly found cowering in a hole in the ground at the centre of Sirte, after rebels moved through the seaside town during their final assault. Fighter Mohammed Al Bibi told reporters that the toppled tyrant had pleaded 'Don't shoot, don't shoot' as he attempted to surrender. There...

Gregory-Portland cancels football game with Mexican team over safety concerns G-P superintendent cites safety concerns for cancellation PORTLAND (Texas) — Citing a need to play it safe, the Gregory-Portland Independent School District on Tuesday canceled its scheduled football game Friday night against Monterrey Tech. Superintendent Paul Clore announced the decision in a news release Tuesday afternoon. Tech backed out of a scheduled game with Round Rock Stony Point last week, claiming that an anonymous caller, possibly a member of a Mexican cartel, demanded $30,000 for the team to cross the American border. The G-P district, however, chose a proactive...

The 19-year-old man who wore a Gumby suit into a 7-Eleven store in San Diego says it was a joke and he never used the words "robbery" or "gun." "I never said any of those words," Jacob Kiss told KGTV (Channel 10). "...Those never came out of my mouth." Kiss turned himself in to San Diego police this week for questioning in the Labor Day incident. So did his friend, Jason Giramma, also 19, who admitted driving the supposed getaway car. The clerk at the store in the Rancho Penasquitos neighborhood told police that the Gumby-suit wearer threatened to pull...

McCartney and Shevell, who've been engaged since April, filed the notice in person at the Old Marylebone Town Hall, the same venue where Macca married Linda Eastman in 1969.
