Randy Travis

Netflix
Netflix is branching out into original programming. Their program, "House of Cards," stars two-time Oscar winner Kevin Spacey and is produced by award-winning director David Fincher, but you won't see this drama on any broadcast or cable network, it will only be on Netflix. And the whole season will be available at once, so viewers won't have to wait a week for the next episode.

Dow Jones
For the first time since october 2007, the Dow Jones industrial average hit 14,000.
A few minutes later, stocks retreated below the psychologically-important level.
Helping boost the Dow: The economy added 157,000 jobs last month, as construction spending rose nearly one-percent. The NASDAQ and S&P 500 also saw gains.

On February 1st, 2003, the space shuttle Columbia broke up as it re-entered the earth's atmosphere. The search for what's left of the spacecraft ended, but the lessons learned and the memory of Columbia's crew live on.

Koch Death
