For the 32 coaches who have assembled their players in Korea and Japan, the week before the tournament was all about making excruciating selections, picking a team of 11 from a squad of 23. Spain's Jos? Antonio Camacho had to choose from 10?yes, 10?midfielders. Even Team USA, with its modest resources, presented coach Bruce Arena with a quandary: Kasey Keller or Brad Friedel in goal...

And then, of course, there was the Queen, Maria Luisa, worn shapeless by 20 pregnancies, with her teeth as bad as George Washington's and her glowing arms, of which...
Tenuta di Lupinari, a restored 18th century village amid 470 acres of sloping vineyards and olive groves, is a resort run by the Pellegrino family to accommodate as many as 37 guests. Strolling down a private dirt road on a recent sunny Sunday, family patriarch Antonio Pellegrino, 77, pointed out a small lake where visitors fish for trout and carp that can later be sauteed in oil made on site from locally harvested olives. Pellegrino showed off the cool confines of his 18th century stone olive press, which sees action only in November. During that harvest month, visitors can help...
