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.

It really doesn't concern me one bit ... I don't think it's a lack of faith, but more of a principle thing for Stu [Sternberg, the Rays' owner]. It's a meritocracy. If you do a good job, you're rewarded. If not, you're not.

But last year, when we did Alex, the key negotiating point was that he be paid to the same age that Barry Bonds was paid. And so we have two extraordinary hitters in Bonds and A-Rod that were paid to the age of 42. . . . Those players are like Manny Ramirez.

I love the water. I love my Sea Ray. But I couldn't find anything close enough in. I've got to be close to the campus, and it had to be close enough for the players to get there.
