Crane Buckles While Raising Roof of Brazil Stadium; 2 Workers Killed

Brazil is facing a time crunch to finish the stadiums that will be used for 2014 World Cup. The $360 million Arena Corinthians in Sao Paulo -- the stadium that is nearest completion -- faced a setback last week when a crane hoisting a 500-ton metal structure for the roof buckled, sending the structure plummeting and killing two workers. Skepticism about the country's ability to finish the venues is growing.
