Arlington

ARLINGTON, Texas -- Amid preliminary estimates that an EF-2 tornado might have touched down in southwest Arlington on Tuesday, city officials Wednesday switched to recovery mode, allowing homeowners back into devastated neighborhoods, setting up a help center, and warning residents about shady contractors.

An estimated 428 homes were damaged when winds estimated at 135 mph roared through shortly after lunch, officials said.

ARLINGTON, Texas -- The slow pace of Kendrys Morales' rehabilitation from a broken ankle this spring allowed rookie Mark Trumbo to win some unexpected playing time at first base.

But now that Morales is officially done for the season, Trumbo doesn't plan to change anything.

"I'm not going to approach it any differently," he said. "All along I never knew quite where he was at, but it never seemed that he was knocking on the doorstep. It's nice that I'll get a few more chances, but I'm going to do exactly the same thing I have been doing."

ARLINGTON, Texas -- This is why the Super Bowl matters.

It's Patti and Roy Asmus of Rosendale, Wis., plunking down $5,000 apiece for a trip to the big game. They're Green Bay Packers fans, with a love of team passed down through the generations.

"My parents were at the Ice Bowl in 1967," says Patti Asmus, a schoolteacher. "It seems only fitting we would do this. It's in our blood."
