The Faroe Islands are still in the World Cup hunt:: A nicely-illustrated profile of the Faroe Islands' soccer team prior to their away match against Croatia in World Cup qualifying. The Faroese team recently defeated the Czech Republic and have shown surprisingly well for part-timers from a nation of only 55,000 souls. (NYT gift link)

The loneliness of the low-ranking tennis player: Conor Niland was once Ireland’s No 1 player, and tried for years to climb the global ranks. But life at the bottom of the top can be brutal.
