A Super Bowl with many memorable moments and the
Patriots back on Top

  • Glendale, Arizona - For one half, it was a
    snoozer of a game. There were 28 points but
    except for the final six seconds before half
    time, there weren't any plays that brought fans
    out of their seats. But Super Bowl XLIX (New
    England Patriots vs. Seattle Seahawks) will be
    remembered for its exciting, crazy ending, the
    kind of final scene that would have a Hollywood
    scriptwriter saying, "Nah, nobody would ever
    believe that. In the end it was the NFL's
    glamorous star Tom Brady leading the Patriots to
    a 28-24 heart-pounding win and an undrafted
    rookie defensive back making an astonishing play
    to seal the win. After weeks of answering
    relentless questions, New England joined five
    other elite NFL teams with a fourth Super Bowl
    trophy. Pete Carroll, Seahawk's coach, looked so
    smart at the end of the first half, making an
    unorthodox call that resulted in an unexpected
    touchdown with time running out. But with 20
    seconds left in the game and the Seahawks
    scrambling for a potential game-winning TD, he
    blew it. Tom Brady, now three-time Super Bowl MVP
    and four-time winner of the big game, tells
    reporters "I've got a lot of football left."

  • The deepening of the shipping channel in
    Savannah, Georgia, won't be dredging up just mud
    and sand. It will be raising up a link to the
    past an ironclad that protected the city during
    the Civil War until the vessel met its
    undignified demise. For about the next nine
    months, divers will be working to bring up the
    CSS Georgia, piece by rusted piece, from nearly
    40 feet down in the Savannah River. The 706
    million harbor deepening officially began
    Thursday with speeches and the firing of an old
    cannon at Old Fort Jackson near the wreck site.
    The removal of the CSS Georgia is necessary for
    the state and federal project, which will see the
    channel go from 42 to 47 feet so massive cargo
    container ships can use the port without relying
    on the tide.

  • President Obama is calling for tens of billions
    of dollars in new government spending, setting up
    a clear contrast with the new Republican
    Congress. All told, the president wants to spend
    37 billion more than the caps allow on domestic
    programs. That would pay for things like an
    expanded child care tax credit and subsidies to
    help students attend community college at no
    cost. Obama is also proposing an extra 38
    billion in defense spending. The White House says
    that money would help pay for the ongoing fight
    against the militant group calling itself the
    Islamic State, as well as military support for
    NATO allies rattled by Russian aggression in
    Ukraine.
