Two bodies found after B-52 crash near Guam

(CNN) — Two airmen were found dead in the Pacific Ocean and rescuers were trying to find four others after a U.S. Air Force B-52 crashed off the island of Guam on Monday, the Air Force said.

Rescuers found the bodies about 30 miles northwest of Guam, not far from where the bomber was believed to have crashed at about 9:45 a.m. local time, the Air Force said.

One of the dead crew members was identified, but the identity was withheld pending family notification, the Air Force said.

Search crews have found no survivors, but they are still looking, said Lt. Elizabeth Buendia, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Coast Guard in Guam, which is a U.S. territory.

The B-52H Stratofortress had six crew members and was on a training mission when it crashed, the Air Force said. It was scheduled to fly over crowds celebrating Liberation Day, which commemorates the U.S. capture of Guam from Japan in 1944, the Air Force said.

The bomber was based at Barksdale Air Force Base in Louisiana but was at Guam’s Andersen Air Force Base as part of a four-month rotation, said Capt. Joel Stark, an Andersen Air Force Base spokesman.

Italian media appalled by Neapolitan tragedy

(CNN) — The Archbishop of Naples barely disguised his disgust: Indifference is not an emotion for human beings. Cardinal Crecenzio Seppe wrote in his parish Web site blog Sunday that to turn the other way or to mind your own business can sometimes be more devastating than the events that occur.

On a windy Saturday afternoon a group of Roma or Gypsy girls were selling trinkets on a beach outside of Naples. Sometime during lunch time, the girls set down their wares and ventured into a rough sea. Two of the Roma, cousins Violetta and Cristina, aged 12 and 13, according to Cardinal Sepe, struggled to stay afloat amid a strong rip tide.

Emergency services responded 10 minutes after a distress call was made from the beach and, according to local press accounts, two lifeguards attended the girls upon hearing their screams. But they were too late. Cristina and Violetta drowned.

Their bodies were pulled from the sea, covered with towels, feet exposed. Witnesses say they lay on the beach for hours — and so did many of the sunbathers who allegedly watched the drowning and, according to some press accounts, did little but stare and carry on with their Saturday afternoon.

Two Gypsy girls drown in the midst of the indifference of bathers, shouted the headline of La Repubblica. Children drown, their bodies amidst the bathers, read Corriere della Sera’s first page. Few left the beach or abandoned their sunbathing.

The coffins of the girls, carried on the shoulders of police, exited the beach between bathers stretched out in the sun, it reported. It also pointed out that the drowning of an Italian man off the coast of northern Italy in 1997, prompted a similar reaction.

Pictures of bathers chatting on cellphones and taking in the rays just meters from the lifeless bodies were posted on dailies across Italy on Sunday. The photographer told CNN the atmosphere among the sunbathers was indeed indifferent — but what were they supposed to do? he asked.

The girls were from one of the many Roma camps in Naples, part of a population of nearly 150,000 across Italy mainly in and around Naples, Rome and Milan. The group have long been considered a nuisance by many in Italy and frequently blamed for criminal activity.

Tropical storm moves over Mexico’s Yucatan

MIAMI, Florida (CNN) — A tropical storm warning remained in effect Monday as Tropical Storm Dolly moved over Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula.

Dolly has spurred storm warnings from the Mexico-Belize border northward to the city of Campeche, on the opposite side of the Yucatan Peninsula. The warning encompasses the tourist resort of Cancun.

At 5 a.m. ET Monday, the storm was about 150 miles (240 kilometers) east of Progreso, Mexico.

The National Hurricane Center said the storm is moving northwest at about 15 mph (24 kph) and is expected to cross the Yucatan Peninsula and enter the Gulf of Mexico later Monday.

By Tuesday, Dolly could become a hurricane, the hurricane center reported. iReport.com: Are you ready for hurricane season?

Meanwhile, forecasters dropped warnings for the North Carolina coast after Tropical Storm Cristobal began turning away from land. Storm warnings that had been posted for the North Carolina coast were lifted Sunday night. Watch as Dolly is expected to strengthen over the Gulf of Mexico

Using online sources to push physical sales

Klaus Heymann, chairman of Naxos, the classical music publishers, answers your questions on business exclusively for The Boardroom.

(CNN) — How does Naxos’ online ubiquity contribute directly to bringing in more business?

We believe strongly in the potential of the Internet as the prime medium for the promotion and distribution of classical music.

We made our entire catalog available for listening online in 1996, long before any other record company, and have been investing in digital distribution ever since.

On the one hand, the strong online presence is helping physical sales, not only of our Naxos label but also of distributed labels such as CPO, Chandos, Arthaus/TDK, Euroarts, Opus Arte and others.

Unlike in pop and rock, sales of physical CDs and DVDs have remained stable for us and have actually increased slightly in the first half of 2008.

At the same time, the strong online presence has helped grow our online revenue substantially — already, 75% of our total revenue comes from online sources (etailers and digital service providers).
