Óli Mortensen grabs gold (and silver) in ReykjavÃk
The Icelandic are staging their annual ReykjavÃk International this weekend, that since its beginning in 1989 has attracted many a fine swimmer like Alexander Dale Oen (NOR), Therese Alshammar (SWE), Martina Moravcová (CZE) and Pál Joensen (FAR). The Faroese delegation counts only one swimmer this year, but that is okay, since he (Óli Mortensen, 1996) has managed to win gold in the 400 (4:06.44) and silver in the 1500 (16:09.16). Long course, of course. Two more Faroese junior records to his belt.

Dolphin swimming in NY canals has died
Read Metro
The dolphin that was swimming in the Gowanus Canal died late this afternoon.
Friday afternoon, as snow started to fall, about two dozen people stood on the Union Street bridge to look down at the dolphin.
The dolphin seemed to be stuck, moving up and down on the side of the canal, surrounded by a styrofoam cup, milk jug and what appeared to be a phone book.
“Only in Brooklyn,” a passerby said.
