As NBC5 reported, Brooke Botello wrote a letter to Santa asking for the return of her 6-month-old English bulldog puppy, which was stolen from in front of her home.

Behind The Scenes At Netflix

I got a tour yesterday of Netflix's distribution center in Irving -- one of four in Texas, and 58 nationwide -- and it was a fascinating peek behind the curtains of a company that has shipped about two billion DVDs since it was founded in 1997 and is gearing up for a future where online viewing will eventually make DVDs as quaint as VHS tapes.
The Irving distribution center handles about 47,000 DVD (and now Blu-ray) discs on a typical day, using U.S. Post Office machines that can scan 30,000 discs in an hour, insert 4,200 outbound discs into envelopes, and sort by zip code more than 17,000 envelopes per hour.
