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.

Quotes about Bono
The cornerstone of Dickstein Shapiro's culture is its pro bono and community service program, through which the firm gives back to the communities in which it works
said Leon Harris
I want to take what I'm learning from the program and apply it either on a pro bono basis or for a small percentage based on their revenue
said Rebecca Puig
When I first heard it, I said, 'I hope it [doesn't] come across [like I'm] blowing my own trumpet.' And Bono said, 'Well, you're the only guy that's got balls enough to sing this thing.' So, I said OK.

Bono took me under his wing and he believed in me. When I made my protest over not getting an award at the MTV Awards a couple of years ago, and nobody wanted to hear anything from me afterwards, Bono and U2 stood by me.

Once people met him and saw what a sweet little boy he is and what a weird situation he was in, it was very easy to get people to do this pro bono
