Barrow is the economic, transportation, and administrative centre for the North Slope Borough. Located on the Chukchi Sea coast, Barrow is the northernmost community in the United States.

It's the first round of the FA Cup tomorrow (sponsored by neon for eons, it appears) and Yeovil Town are the visitors to Oxford United.
