I just had a catastrophic crash which necessitated reinstalling

Now when I update the repositories, regardless of the tool, Synaptic

W: Failed to fetch

Not Found [IP: 2610:148:1f10:3::89 80]
I do not get these errors if I comment out the deb-src lines in the
sources.list.
Those are IPv6 addresses. I would guess that you don't have an
IPv6 connection available to you, or it's misconfigured.
He then would get a timeout or host unreachable and not a 404 HTTP error
code.
What it looks like is this: he has URLs for the sources of security
updates (wheezy/updates) configured for the wrong host, because
debian.gtisc.gatech.edu does not carry those.
debian.gtisc.gatech.edu??? None of the information in the OPs query
mentions this host. All of his sources.list lines are using
http://http.us.debian.org. The issue is that
http://http.us.debian.org/debian/dists/wheezy/updates does not exist. A
casual look with a browser reveals this.
Here is the lines that should be in the sources.list file
deb-src
http://http.us.debian.org/debian/dists/wheezy-updates/main/source/Sources
deb-src
http://http.us.debian.org/debian/dists/wheezy-updates/contrib/source/Sources
deb-src
http://http.us.debian.org/debian/dists/wheezy-updates/non-free/source/Sources
The OP has mistakenly .../wheezy/updates/... instead of
/wheezy-updates/... in his deb-src lines

Sven.
