Grow Interactive, a Norfolk-based interactive advertising and design studio, teamed up with leading independent advertising agency Wieden+Kennedy, to create Girl Effect. The website, created on behalf of The Nike Foundation, coincides with last week's announcement that the "Nike Foundation and Buffets join to Invest $100 million in Girls."
Visitors to the website learn about "the girl effect," the ability of adolescent girls in developing countries to bring unprecedented social and economic change to their families, communities and countries.

The well designed website provides the tools for girls and women to learn and spread the word.

It was once said by a wise man that there are (arbitrary large number) paths to God. Our current path of choice is the youngest religion to date—a mere three years old. This new sect is called The Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster or "Pastafarianism" and is complete with its own Gospel, an ever-growing following, religious art and artifacts and best of all:...
