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 spotlight for "Paul Carroll"
We played really good sideout volleyball in Game 1, maybe the best all year for a sustained full game ... We missed too many serves (eight in Game 1) and that was the difference. Then we imploded toward the end. And (Paul) Carroll did tee off.
said Mike Wilton
How far away that is I don't know. Like any player when they get towards the back end of their career they start to think more about their options. With Ivan and Wayne away it was good for Paul (Green) and Peter (Ryan) because they had a bit more say in what the players did at training. It was good that Tunza (Carroll) and I could also be involved.
said Darren Lockyer
We definitely need to win and not leave it to a vote of who gets in the Final Four ... Pepperdine is a great team, and they will have different looks because we are playing in California and they will be able to serve a little better than they did in Utah. They have the best setter [Jonathan Winder] in the conference and the nation, and they have Paul Carroll, who is probably the most talented opposite in the country.
