Omar Sy in The Intouchables

Hello Sexy Omar Sy!

Based on a true story, The Intouchables describes the journey of how 2 very unlike individuals, become friends for life. I'd definitely recommend this to anyone! Whats there to complain when there's an eye candy like Omar Sy? Who would think that anyone can look sexy dancing to Boogie Wonderland!

The Intouchables became the highest-grossing foreign language film!

Song: Boogie Wonderland by Earth, Wind & Fire

Entrepreneur Find: G-Paws

If you want an insurance against losing your beloved pet, G-Paws is definitely a worthy investment for pet owners. An innovative GPS pet tracking system in the size of a small thumbdrive. Weighing at merely 15 grams, G-Paws is attachable to most pets, creating minimum disturbance to their movement and mobility. Yhey wouldn't even know it was there!

Father-of-two Dave Evans came up with the idea because his own silver tabby Yollo was mysteriously disappearing and putting on weight each day. So the idea of a tracking device for animals came to creation.

G-Paws tracks your pet's movement and location through a chip embedded in the device. When the animal returns home the information is downloaded via a USB cable direct to a website which reveals its secret life on Google Earth satellite images.

This is definitely a great innovation for pet owners who never want to risk the thought of losing their pets!

G-Paw is now available for sale in the UK.

Visit them at their Facebook Page for latest updates on G-Paws and Yollo!

Blackberry Q10 & Z10

For all you Blackberry fans out there, the Canadian phone company has recently launched in Jan 2013 some sexy new models. These are definitely out to steal the limelight of Apple (Iphone), Samsung (Galaxy) and Android phones.

Some interesting changes:

1. No Physical Qwerty Keyboard with Z10: Blackberry (or previously RIM) has attempted to create an iconic Blackberry without the physical keyboard. For example, Model Storm. Having been an experienced user of Storm, I must say that it was a nice attempt but total flop. The model Storm was poorly deviced, with poor user-capability.

2. Blackberry data plan versus normal data plan: These 2 phone models allow you to use a NORMAL data plan, without the need to apply for a special Blackberry Data plan

3. Blackberry Messenger Video Chat: Yes, you can now launch video chats with your Blackberry Messenger Contacts. On top of that, you can share screen with your contacts during chat!
