BASRA, IRAQ - OCTOBER 18: People gather around a Land Rover as it arrives at the village Al Houta on October 18 2008 near Basra, Iraq. The trip by the 51 Sqn Royal Air Force Regiment Force Protection Wing was part of a 'key leader engagement' (KLE) visit to the village close to the Basra Airbase to recruit local labour and engage with the village shiek. Visits of this type are seen as key in efforts to continue winning the support of the local Iraqi population. Although improved security in the region has brought some benefits such as improved trade and commerce, much of the infrastructure remains in a poor state of repair. Britain's Prime Minister Gordon Brown has indicated that the number of UK troops could be scaled down - especially as the security situation in the south of the country continues to improve.

Some people might compare them to the Miami Heat ... when they won the title (in 2006) with some older players such as Alonzo Mourning, Antoine Walker and Gary Payton. They got the ring and then it looked like they all aged eight years in the offseason. But I don't think that's going to happen with Boston. The character of Garnett, Pierce and Allen won't allow that to happen. They're my preseason favorite.

Zo's Summer Groove, our largest fundraiser, has truly been a fun, community-centered effort that provides many programs with the financial support needed to make education a priority.

I think maybe the only shot-blocker I saw around here who was better was (Indian River's) Alonzo Mourning ... Nick is an excellent shot-blocker, and he's very good at coming off the weak side.
