We are delighted to receive final approval for our branch license in Dubai. The Middle East is experiencing remarkable development and we aim to bridge both Asia and Middle East, the two fastest growing regions in the world.

I think it was a disservice to Larry to make him take Allen Iverson. [Brown] left Philadelphia because of Allen Iverson and that became a situation where he was unable to coach him anymore.
