– Justin Bieber posed again for PETA while in Manila for a concert and said to his Beliebers, “It’s really important that people adopt. I really encourage going out to an animal shelter or a place where you can get a dog who has been abandoned or doesn’t have a home.”

Here’s an interesting campaign that illustrates how lots of hard work – at Gold’s Gym, of course – can help literally burn food.

– Hate writing cover letters? Lisa Taylor has made the daunting process surprisingly easy.

Here’s the last entry in GE’s Sock Loss campaign. Really not as good as earlier iterations but still a bit funny.

– A little morbid but practical none-the-less. The Israel Trauma Center for Victims of Terror and War has launched Facebook Blood Groups, a collection of Facebook Groups designed to make easy for people to donate and find blood of a certain type.

– And just for fun a Belgian dating site ad in which women are available for order via a gumball machine.

– British Airways has launched it first ad campaign as sponsor of the 2012 London Olympics.

– Rihanna’s “cleavage” in a Reb’l Fleur ad gets covered up (digitally or actually) in Kuwait for being a bit too sexy.

– Co:Collective has hired Eva McCloskey as Chief Curator. McCloskey will identify new “co-conspirators” and curate talent from the existing 43 co-conspirator companies that have signed on to collaborate with Co:.

– New York and Chicago-based advertising agency Domani Studios recently launched a recruiting campaign called Future Fountain to attract soon-to-be college grads for hire.

– Moms. Get the hell of Facebook and play with your kids!

– Love this Dodge Charger commercial which riffs on period piece love and ends up being a commercial for Vin Deisel’s Fast Five.

– Olive Garden caught in a lie over Olive Garden Culinary Institute of Tuscany campaign. Totally unsurprising of course.
