In his regular column on Bizcommunity.com, Brendan Seery's [Orchids & Onions] gives an orchid to FCB and Toyota for their warning on 50 shades of pirate parts.

Still on advertising, Leigh Andrews finds out what Rob McLennan, creative founding partner of King James II, expects from [Loeries 2015], taking place in (hopefully) sunny Durbs this August. Ending on a sad note, Ken Owen passed away last week and tributes have been posted on social media and in traditional media on his passing. | Rod BakerRod Baker is Content Director at Bizcommunity.com.
