The extra point counted! Luis Aranda in Midland Texas kicked a line drive that wouldn't have cleared the crossbar had it not first hit the referee's face! Not a pretty kick but an effective one!

This has the makings of being turned in to a very bad 'Lifetime' movie. A 14-year-old boy has been secretly living in the Corsicana, Texas Wal-mart. The store stowaway was discovered 4 days into his adventure.

George Zimmerman -- yes the same Florida neighborhood watchman acquitted in the Trayvon Martin murder trial -- was pulled over for speeding on a highway near Dallas, Texas.

Rescue workers are searching rubble for survivors of a fertilizer plant explosion in a small Texas town that killed as many as 15 and injured more than 160. The blast left the factory a smoldering ruin and leveled homes and businesses for blocks in every direction...
