- Just like the pop-up store, Porter Novelli has introduced Jack + Bill, a pop-up agency dedicated to identifying, branding and publicizing emerging fashion talent.

- Carl Weathers, a.k.a. Apollo Creed, is now...riding around on a bicycle selling flowers...uh...promoting a credit union.

- Today, BBDO announced the acquisition of Cincinnati-based creative agency Barefoot which will become part of the agency's Proximity Worldwide Network.

- Kellogg's Special K makes the French gets all bootyliciously Salsa-like.
