Your daily look at late-breaking news, upcoming events and stories that will be talked about today (times in EDT):

3. AIRLINE SAFETY RECORD A MIXED BAG

While it's been more than 3½ years since the last deadly airline crash in the U.S., one consequence of such a remarkable record is the difficulty in imposing new safety rules on the industry.

4. CANDIDATES GET BACK TO BUSINESS
