In addition to developing and expanding its mobile portfolio, VGTel is also looking for opportunities to strengthen its social and video capabilities. The power of social media to actively engage consumers coupled with the reach and personalization of mobile are driving innovation across the media industry and creating opportunities for companies like VGTel to develop new and compelling offers to enhance connections between consumers, content and brands. These trends are also fueling the continued growth of display advertising and marketing services.
Mr. Harris added, "As the market enters a new era that will be driven by audience connections with each other and with brands, we will be focused on personal technology and personal media. To that end, we have also entered into negotiations to strengthen our global capabilities in social media, video and global e-commerce." VGTel anticipates that the deals under discussion will be closed before the end of the second quarter.

The findings, based on a Danish study of nearly 50,000 couples, show that if both partners were obese the chances of the couple having to wait for more than a year before the woman became pregnant were nearly three times higher than for a normal weight couple. If both partners were only overweight, the likelihood they would have to wait longer than a year was 1.4 times higher.
