PARIS, France (CNN) — The bodies of two men, one of whom was confirmed to be a passenger from the Air France plane that is believed to have crashed in the Atlantic Ocean on Monday, were found early Saturday, a Brazilian air force spokesman said. Also found were a backpack and a leather briefcase containing an airplane ticket with a reservation code, which Air France verified belonged to a passenger on the jet, Jorge Amaral said.The Brazilian navy and air force said the backpack contained a laptop, and an oxygen mask also was discovered, the Brazilian navy and air force said.Air force officials announced the news in Recife, Brazil. The items were discovered 420 miles north of the Fernando de Noronha islands, 220 miles (355 kilometers) off the northeast coast of Brazil.It is not clear where the plane crashed, since ocean currents likely caused the bodies and debris to drift in the six days since the crash. All 228 passengers and crew aboard the Airbus 330 are presumed to have died when the plane disappeared northeast of the islands.

Two bodies and debris have been found from the Air France plane which went missing over the Atlantic last Monday, the Brazilian air force has said.
The remains were picked up some 800km (500 miles) north-east of Fernando de Noronha islands, off Brazil’s coast. Experts on human remains are on their way to examine the find. All 228 passengers and crew on board AF 447 are believed to have been killed when the plane disappeared during its flight from Rio de Janeiro to Paris.
“We confirm the recovery from the water of debris and bodies from the Air France plane,” air force spokesman Jorge Amaral told reporters in the northern city of Recife on Saturday. He later added that two male bodies had been found, as well as objects linked to passengers known to be on the flight, including a suitcase with a plane ticket and a backpack with a computer inside. “It was confirmed with Air France that the ticket number corresponds to a passenger on the flight,” Col Amaral said. A blue seat was also found, and Air France is checking the serial number to see whether it came from the flight. The remains were found not far from where the last signal from the plane was received and taken to the islands of Fernando de Noronha. The items were the first to be definitely linked to the plane, nearly six days after the crash.
But the BBC’s Gary Duffy in Sao Paulo says the authorities are adopting a cautious approach after previous reports of debris being found proved false.
Correspondents say that much of the search effort so far has been focused on finding flight data recorders, which have sonar beacons - or “pingers” - attached to them.
But French officials say there was no guarantee the beacons were still attached to the flight recorders, and they may have been separated in the impact of the crash.
A French submarine is being sent to join in the search since it had sonar equipment that could help locate the airliner’s flight data recorders.
The US is also sending specialised listening equipment.

Incompetent Barack Obama White House Forced to Apologzie for Health Care Spam Email Fiasco

August 19, 2009 - 7:04 am 25 Comments

(8.16.09) — And these guys think they can run health care for all Americans? Right.

More humiliation for a reeling Obama White House as they are forced to publicly acknowledge that a would-be viral email from Senior Presidential Adviser David Axelrod was spammed to a number of unwitting recipients.

The case has also raised privacy concerns.

Further, the Drudge Report is stating this afternoon that the ill-conceived Flag@WhiteHouse.gov snitch site may be shut down. It is apparently bouncing back emails which are sent to the address.
