Tim Tebow SUPER BOWL AD VIDEO: See Tebow TACKLE Mother Pam

Tim Tebow's Super Bowl ad has been rumored for weeks. The commercial, long suspected to contain a pro-life message, was protested by many women's groups, which pressured CBS not to air the ad. Planned Parenthood even released a preemptive video in response to the commercial.
(UPDATE: Scroll down for NEW ad!)
After much anticipation, the ads have now been released -- and the Heisman winner tackles his mother! They do not contain any overtly pro-life message and are tamer than many may have expected. The ads mostly consist of Pam Tebow, Tim's mother, talking about her son. The former Florida quarterback only speaks at the end of the commercials. Below is the transcript of the pre-game ad.
PAM TEBOW: I call him my miracle baby. He almost didn't make it into this world. I remember so many times when I almost lost him. It was so hard. Well he's all grown up now, and I still worry about his health. Everybody treats him like he's different, but to me, he's just my baby. He's my Timmy, and I love him. TIM TEBOW: Thanks mom. Love you too.
The ad closes with a message encouraging viewers to visit FocusOnTheFamily.com.

Indian Tycoons Urged to Switch to Solar Energy


The chief of the UN Inter-Governmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is calling on India’s top business leaders to support the country’ solar energy mission and help ensure a sustainable future. This comes ahead of the CEO World Forum that opens this Thursday in New Delhi.
 
Mr. R. K Pachauri explains how, according to the national action plan on climate change, India is to generate 20,000 megawatts of solar power by the year 2022. 
 
[R K Pachauri, Head, UN IPCC]:
"This is a very ambitious and a very visionary plan because by 2021-2022, that's the fiscal year, the intention is for the country to establish 20,000 megawatts of solar energy. And this does not include other form of energy, just solar power generating capacity. And I think this is where businesses and industry has to seize the opportunity." 
 
The National Solar Energy Mission, launched in January this year, aims to sustain the country's growth based on renewable and clean sources of energy in the near future.
