Havas Media and DG will deliver an integrated solution for online and television campaign management.
Havas Media and DG will deliver an integrated solution for online and television campaign management. Havas Media claims the deal will allow it to manage campaigns around the world with a single solution - at a price that's competitive with scrappy local startups.
DG's technology provides a multi-screen solution covering distribution, reporting and analytics for TV and online. The independent company says its advertising technology platform manages more than 10 percent of the global media spend.
The deal brings DG into a roster of Havas Media partners that began 12 years ago with DoubleClick. DG's MediaMind for online campaigns and VideoFusion for video campaigns have already been integrated into Havas' Artemis data platform, according to Sylvain Le Borgne, executive vice president of data platforms for Havas Media.
"We're going to use their tools to make sure we track all the campaigns we deliver for our clients all across the world," Le Borgne says. "We have set up with DG a data exchange. Every night, they will push us all the data on every campaign, so we can leverage it in our own data analytics platform, Artemis."
DG's global footprint will especially be useful for Havas clients in places such as Eastern Europe and South America, where the agency has had to rely on a mix of local campaign tracking vendors or its own solutions.
Le Borgne says, "In a lot of emerging markets, you have extremely aggressive pricing from local players. We want to make sure we had a global partner that would be sufficiently attractive so that we could convince local teams to work with them."
DG offers multiscreen ad delivery, cross-channel research and analytics, and unified asset management. Le Borgne says that this capability will let the agency quickly push out content and ads to all consumers, instead of having to deliver multiple iterations of the campaign for different media and devices. Further, DG's ability to track online and TV ads together has great potential, he says, because it allows the agency to make sure that digital and TV ads complement each other.
This integration of digital and traditional media matches the recent reorganization of Havas Media itself, eliminating the distinction between media. Instead of different divisions competing for client attention and pushing their own solutions, Le Borgne says, "In everything we offer, we push some digital media. With DG, for example, any TV spot that can be complimented with online messaging is fantastic for us."

It's been fascinating to read all the dissection of THE HELP and Viola Davis's statements and career; a dissection that's been filtered through mostly a 2011/2012 lens.
So I thought, let's do a young Viola Davis thought experiment. She's 46, what would the film world been like for her at age 17 to 19? To narrow it down, let's look at the 100 top grossing films of 1984 to see what she could have played in as a young actress in Hollywood. Which of those films would have possibly been a launching pad?
From jump, you have to eliminate BEVERLY HILLS COP, because it doesn't feature a love interest for Eddie Murphy, and the same for GHOSTBUSTERS and Ernie Hudson. So that leaves us with:
11. Purple Rain
18 Breakin'
38. The Cotton Club
62. Beat Street
63. Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo
BREAKIN' and BREAKIN' 2 feature a white female lead, but conceivably Davis, if she's been trained as a dancer, could have been casted and the parents re-casted from that. But, they aren't star makers by any stretch of the imagination. PURPLE RAIN is more of a great concert film that happens to include a melodramatic, underwritten storyline, than it is a straight dramatic film (it's still a cult classic, don't think I'm not showing it love when is say that, it is what it is). And it's really a showcase for Prince and the Revolution and for Morris Day and the Time. BEAT STREET is a classic that only really exists because Hollywood was looking to capitalize on a fad, much like they would six years later with the Lambada.
So of the films on the list, only THE COTTON CLUB would have been a true jumping off point, however, it's a film that featured Richard Gere as the lead, so it wasn't a true vehicle for Black actors. But, Laurence Fishburne, Gregory Hines and Mario Van Peebles all have had their fair share of success afterwards. Wait, this is about a young Viola Davis's possibilities. So what about Lonette McKee's career? She was in THE COTTON CLUB.
She did get to act in the dramatic classic BREWSTER'S MILLIONS the next year. Snark aside, she is in the well respected 'ROUND MIDNIGHT, which does feature a Black Male Lead that isn't a comedy, two years after that. A quick glance though, and you see she's rarely--which basically means never--been a lead or the sole lead. Even in some of her more high profile, well-perceived projects, which feature all or predominately African American casts HAVING OUR SAY and QUEEN. And let's be honest, those pieces are more solid than outstanding and were in TV, not film.
So let's jump to the year Davis graduated college, 1988. Which should be a good year for Black Actresses. THE COLOR PURPLE was a dominant film in 1985. SHE'S GOTTA HAVE IT was released in 1986 and we likely wouldn't have had the indie boom of the 1990s without it and the other films released around that time.
So the 1988 list gives us:
3. Coming to America
13. Scrooged
49. Action Jackson
51. The Serpent and the Rainbow
52. Police Academy 5: Assignment: Miami Beach
67. School Daze
74. I'm Gonna Get You Sucka
At only 22, she would have been too young to play the mother in SCROOGED. She would have been the right age to be in COMING TO AMERICA, but that was a showcase for Eddie Murphy and Arsenio Hall. THE SERPENT AND THE RAINBOW is another film that has a White lead, and has that exotic people of color veneer that Hollywood loves, so not much room there to shine. ACTION JACKSON was a minor box office success, and another 80s cult classic, but nothing that would have catapulted anyone in that film to another level. We'll skip POLICE ACADEMY 5: THE SEARCH FOR MORE MONEY. I'M GONNA GET YOU SUCKA, like the Blaxplotation films it spoofed, is much more about the guys than it is the ladies, and I dare the average, emphasis on average, person to name all the women in the film.
So that leaves SCHOOL DAZE, a film that features probably one of the highest concentrations of potent Black talent in the last 30 years. Even if you pull out Sam Jackson and his 7 billion dollar plus box office track record, and just use Ginancarlo Esposito, Laurence Fishburne, Tisha Campbell-Martin, Ossie Davis, Bill Nunn, Kadeem Hardison, Spike Lee, Jasmine Guy, the amount of Box Office revenue and amount of money they made for networks like NBC, AMC, CBS, etc, makes them an unqualified success as a group. And again, that's not including the awards and accolades, or cultural impact.
But, again, Tisha Campbell-Martin nor Jasmine Guy have had many—again, basically zero—projects built solely around them, or that offered roles that allowed them to stand out. Tisha Campbell-Martin's two most prominent roles have been as a girlfriend and as a wife on TV. Jasmine Guy's Whitley is a pop culture icon that endures, but she still was part of an ensemble on TV, not on film. In the feature world, neither of the them have a body of work that compares to what followed after Julia Roberts starred in her Independent Sprit Award nominated role in MYSTIC PIZZA. Note MYSTIC PIZZA comes in at number 76 on the chart for that year; so it wasn't even as successful as I'M GONNA GET YOU SUCKA or SCHOOL DAZE.
I can go further with 1992, 1996 and on, but I think you get where I'm going.
When I read pieces like Tanya Steele's (HERE) and all the others, I find them exasperating. While I understand the frustration, to not view Viola Davis's career the way Viola Davis would have experienced it, highlights how much work we've got to do about how we hold conversations amongst ourselves and apply some rigorous analysis.
I'm pretty sure every Black actress, good or bad, transcendent to work horse strong to serviceable, would have welcomed the more leveled playing field digital technology has ushered in, in 1988. Because it's much easier to write a "It's A Difficult Time To Be A Black Filmmaker With An imagination" piece in 2012 than it would be in 1988 or 1992.
As hard as it is today, we have tools that would have not been available, let alone affordable 25 years ago. That piece in 1988 would have been just "It's A Difficult Time To Become A Black Filmmaker."
The landscape looked sparse then, even on Broadway. SARAFINA!, JOE TURNER'S COME AND GONE and AIN'T MISBEHAVIN' and two Paul Robeson projects out of nearly 30 productions. Which are beloved and critically acclaimed works, but they're not like OUR TOWN or SPEED-THE-PLOW, which could feature race neutral casting and could instantly help expand and open up an actor's resume. Which by extension, could open up possibilities on film.
Fortunately, theatrical work, while often still limiting, still offered a multitude of opportunities and a diversity she would have never had available in film. It's reflected in her later Tony and Drama Desk award wins. Even in the 1980s, there were still many more productions, even if they were off-Broadway and in other cities, that would cast a Davis in roles originally envisioned as White and in plays as strong as August Wilson's.
It's very easy to place a spotlight on Davis now, especially as she's being more vocal. But, I'm not sure how many Black Actresses from today, would still be in the game if they had graduated in 1988, even more so if they wanted to be in the movies. And today, as it was then, it takes only a few bad films and a subpar reel to derail a film career, stall it, or end it permanently.
If we want to have a discussion about what Davis's career and her role in THE HELP says about today, and what kind of clout this press and nominations really give her, then we need to dig deeper and examine her whole career and the film world around her. But, we also need to recognize how much that path would influence her choices then and her choices now.
I'll end on a few rhetorical questions:
For any filmmaker, why should anyone risk X number of years of hard work on you?
Would you have lasted as long as a Davis? And would have been as disciplined to not take certain roles, even it meant not knowing where that next paycheck is coming from?

The conversation here between Charles and Nadine is illuminating. There is something to be said for looking at the historical moment out of which an artist emerges. Your conversation around the state of Black film, theater and television in the 1980âs and 1990âs certainly sheds some light on possible âpossibilitiesâ during that time period. However, it may also be useful to think about an artists expectations for his or herself in terms of what âsuccessâ is defined as. For example, last night I mentioned the conversation taking place on this blog to a friend of mine who is Brown skinned Black woman working actress and she mention that coming out of Julliard, there are expectations that you do Shakespeare in NYC upon graduation. That you go on to work for the people who have been training you since you have been in school. So my first question, what happened to Ms. Davis after graduation. My second question is, what role does institutional socialization have on what a Julliard trained Black woman actresses expectations? Or to state it another way, what did it mean for her to graduate from Julliard, and to have the expectations that she would be treated like her White peers (peep the 2009 interview with The AV Club) only to learn that she is a brown skinned Black actress in environment that says, thin, White, blond and young is the norm; and this IF they are allowed to be in a film in meaningful way.
In the AV club interview Ms. Davis does point to how mainstream standards of beauty are material to her ability work. That shit is real. She also talks about the categories that White women in Hollywood are placed in.
What does it mean to want to toil in an industry that has demonstrated, by and large, that people who look like you are invisible or that you will have to fight like hell to be visible? And that your visibility, and the historical visibility of women who look like you have been tied to you being continually asked and allowed to play the maid. What is that lived experience like? What in the hell does that do to a personâs spirit? These are the questions that I am interested in because they illuminate the politics of visibility for Brown skinned Black women.
Because, donât think I did not see that Gabby Sidibe played a maid, in the recent Eddy Murphy vehicle.

Traveling back in time like this made me imagine a young and vivacious Viola Davis as Nola Darling. Oh what a different film history we might have had--what kind of film would that have been then? Johns was chosen from theater after all. Tracy Camilla Johns may not have wanted an acting career but if there was a black film that could have launched careers of young black actors in the late 1980s I'd like to think She's Gotta Have It was the one. But for a variety of reasons that's not what happened and probably was not what could have happened either. We wuz robbed. What role would the extraordinary Davis have played in Do the Right Thing? And the 1990s so called "black wave" of Waiting to Exhale? Jungle Fever? Devil in a Blue Dress? Eve's Bayou? Or ... Daughters of the Dust? But what then? What happened to the 90s black women actors? Were there really any roles for Davis here and can we imagine these as launching pads--for her or for anyone? It's tough -- whether an actor can successfully cross over into Hollywood from an independent black film, if they want to do that. I would think actors experience them as different worlds, each with specific limitations -- I think of Girl 6 and that character's exploration of black women's film/tv roles: Carmen Jones, Nola Darling, the Jefferson's daughter combined with someone else, and one other I think that I'm forgetting. Robert Townsend examined the experiences of actors in Hollywood Shuffle. Anyway, the greater point of the article is that Davis did not come from nowhere and as viewers we need to understand and explore that with more patience and empathy. I especially appreciated the lines "While I understand the frustration, to not view Viola Davisâs career the way Viola Davis would have experienced it, highlights how much work weâve got to do about how we hold conversations amongst ourselves and apply some rigorous analysis." Now I'm curious to know what she might have auditioned for and sort of look at what she was actually doing and might have wanted to do next to these possibilities. But I want her to just do her thing. I really enjoy hearing her thoughts but I don't want her to feel crushed by any representational burdens. It's time for film criticism with an historical imagination. I very much enjoyed Brent Staples' piece in the NYTimes over the weekend as well ... In that one the black stereotypes from the past visit the future and we imagine what they make of the current black images

"I can go further with 1992, 1996 and on, but I think you get where Iâm going."... I don't know where you're going... spell it out for me please?

This is definitely food for thought.
Nadine | February 14, 2012 8:32 PM
I DO NOT UNDERSTAND THIS ESSAY CHARLES... Why focus on 1988 and 84 alone... I don't understand. I grew up in the eighties and nineties and they had a HECK of a lot more diversity than they do now. I don't understand what you are saying... I am actually perplexed. Are you saying that we must look through her lens to understand HER experiences? Personally, I'm not looking back at the climate and surmising what that experience might have been, I WAS the experience and I DID NOT FEEL LEFT OUT CULTURALLY. I'm not sure if you understand how insidious the climate is right now for Black women and casting, Charles, and I'm disappointed by your exasperation... The 80s? How about the 80s AND the 90s? Whoopi Goldberg ALONE: Okay, yes Color Purple, but we're talking Fatal Beauty, Burglar, The Associate, Clara's Heart, Jumpin' Jack Flash, Corrina, Corrina, MY FAVORITE Star Trek - loved her, Sister Act 1 & 2, Eddie, I mean she was a member of the comedic Dream Team with Robin Williams & Billy Crystal, not to mention Diana Ross, House Party movies and even television roles, we HAD TOOTIE, u know what I mean? COSBY/DIFFERENT WORLD daggone it! Just the women who came out of that, all shades ;) ... Living Single which if you check out the timing has Sex and the City looking suspiciously like a knock off... check it out... I'm just sayin'! All this AND MORE while R&B/hip hop AND mainstream music was inclusive: Stephanie Mills, Janet Jackson, Lisa Fisher, Pointer Sisters, En Vogue, SWV, Salt & Pepa, Natalie Cole, Patti LaBelle, Tina Turner, Queen Latifah, Monie Love, rap "girl groups" out of the West Coast 3,5,7 and you know the rest..., Total, Missy Elliot, Lucy Pearl, Eve, Des'ree, all those little girl groups like 702 and so on... Changing Faces, Arrested Development, up to Erykah Badu, India Arie and Lauryn Hill... We had Supermodels, Naomi, Tyra, Katoucha, Karen Alexander, Gail O'Neal, Roshumba, mercy and a million others, seriously... Georgianna Robertson... The list is unfathomably long NOT TO MENTION the BLACK THEATER in NYC in the 80s and 90s...what?!?!? Every one of those industries is, now, like a desert or has replaced more competitive Black women with less competitive Black woman "players" in the game (all the "fat, black, female roles post 2000/Big Mommas House on...)...What, Julliard? Late 80s early 90s in NYC... and BLACK?!?!? The Golden Age of Black music and art in NY? New York Undercover?!?!? So, CHARLES, I SUBMIT TO YOU that Viola would not have become an actress and spent all of these years training and pounding the pavement if she had been raised with an industry that looks the way the current industry looks today. She was a YOUNG adult when there were clear opportunities or at least glimmers of greatness that Viola and other Black women could be inspired. Now, she probably feels hoodwinked by what she thought was an industry of possibilities - finding herself, like a desperate woman or man, trying to hold on to the man or woman they think they love but does not love them back. Blaming everyone but the "industry" she is so desperately holding on to given the sacrifices she has made. (There is also other stuff at play, which I'm not going to bother getting into - which seems to haunt this dear woman most)... I do hope, though, that we all can move away from this topic. The Tavis Smiley interview was unfortunate in that it stirred all of this up. I was sorry to hear her comments, given I was a staunch supporter. I will still support, of course, but now I just feel sad for her and her sacrifices.

Green Bay Packers enjoying new McCarthyism under second-year head coach
[size=14pt]The Green Bay Packers owe a huge debt to the Minnesota Vikings.[/size]
The youngest team in the NFL beat the Vikings twice this season en route to a splendid 13-3 record. The Pack also rehabilitated Koren Robinson from Minnesota's scrap heap and watched him become a productive receiver and kick-return man.
But most important, these Packers can thank Zygi Wilf for coach Mike McCarthy. What a find! McCarthy is as responsible as anyone for the amazing turnaround in Green Bay.Kentucky Vikes Fan
When you require nothing, you get nothing; when you expect nothing, you will find nothing; when you embrace nothing, all you will have is nothing.
Re: Green Bay Packers enjoying new McCarthyism under second-year head coach
The Chiller takes another blow from local writers, ouch. I think we take a game from the Pack next year, if not both. and whittle the Packers down a couple pegs. It's low punches like this-
"It must rankle Vikings fans. They won the coaching sweepstakes battle but lost the war." That will be judged in time, not in two seasons.
Re: Green Bay Packers enjoying new McCarthyism under second-year head coach
The local hacks will continue to spew forth thier drivel as long as thier is a HC at the helm of the Vikes who doesn't run to thier beck and call.
The problem with that is most of the local rubes believe what they read and don't have enough sense to wade through the drivel.
You know its bad when you see the press from outside agencies slamming them and they still don't get a clue.
Very few Vikings articles originated by the Twins cities papers are given any credance by the national media.
Very sad indeed.Many many thanks to my talented friend Jos for the new Sig.

STRUTHERS, Ohio - Neighbors of Shain Widdersheim say they are devastated by the death of young Theodore "Teddy" Foltz. Several lit candles on front porches in his memory and all say he was a kind, but shy boy.
"He was such a sweet little boy, he'd always smile always wave," Danielle Ginnetti says. "They never called him Ted, especially Zaryl [Bush], it was always "L.D.", always cussing at him, always saying distrurbing things."
Widdersheim and her ex-boyfriend Bush called him "L.D." because he had learning disabilities Ginnetti says.
"The system failed this child and I pray it doesn't happen again because I can't imagine how alone that child felt," Erin Fulton says. "There are all these people in the community that do care."
Fulton says many people called children's services and police to report the family because of their treatment of the children, even the school called.
"She would always make it a point to say we'd never hurt them," Fulton says. "Probably three weeks ago she told me. She knocked on my door and said somebody called children's services on her and she stood in my living room and told me they only thing they checked was to make sure they had a toilet and running water and food in the house."
Some of the neighbors believe the legal system that is supposed to help children like Teddy seems to protect the parent but not the child.
"They were alienated from anyone that could have helped," Fulton says. "It was a huge red flag and it was ignored and I just really hope it doesn't happen again."
Neighbors say they are relieved Teddy's twin 10-year-old brothers are now out of the house and somewhere safe.
Mahoning County Children's Services say they are conducting an investigation.

The Houston Texans lead the Baltimore Ravens in every category except points on the scoreboard. Through two quarters on Sunday, the Ravens have leaned on their defense and special teams to jump out to a 17-9 lead.
Houston has 157 yards of offense to Baltimore's 65, but the team's inability to score holds it back. Quarterback Matt Schaub has thrown for 96 yards, including a costly interception that was returned for a touchdown by linebacker Daryl Smith.
Shortly before the end of the half, Tandon Doss struck for the Ravens with an 82-yard punt return for a touchdown. Houston had time to answer back, but the story remained the same as the Texans settled for a third field goal when the offense was unable to score.
Baltimore needs to find a way to move the ball on offense, because it's unlikely the Ravens can lean on defense and special teams all game long. Without Ray Rice, the offense has just 14 rushing yards so far.

Is it bad that our son is only 1 month old (tomorrow!) and I'm already designing his big-boy room?
Honestly I can't help it, with all the time I have to catch up on blogs while he's nursing. I start reading one, find a product that wows me and then I lose myself in the slippery slope that is the Internet.
It all started last night as I was checking on fellow Oak Parker Nicole at Making It Lovely, where I got a crush on the chair she just got for her daughter. She led me to Urban Outfitters, and I was overwhelmed by how many fun pieces (including the mid-century rocker), they've got right now -- and I got inspired.
For example, I love the idea of a huge map for the east wall, and I'd use this paper, this decal or my favorite choice: a large orange atlas tapestry! The color is so bright and unexpected, plus I love fabric as wall covering. It reminds me of the room on the cover of Susanna Salk's Room for Children. (Check out some of the fabulous designer's resources in this article).
I would carry out the orange to the rest of the walls, paining in a few jagged vertical lines to represent time zones. From there I might delve into a pirate theme, which came to mind after our son just received these witty washcloths from some friends.
While we're dreaming, I'd use this bed (even though it's discontinued) and pair it with this rag rug that looks like scraps of clothing from a bunch of washed up sailors -- all those stripes! Finally, if we had a separate kids' bathroom (again dreaming), this toothbrush holder would be a must. With the pirate theme, it all says a little Swiss Family Robinson to me, and what kid doesn't love that?

Rambutaan says: Arcanum is a pretty special game when it comes to music. Troika wanted to try something different and employed a string quartet to perform most of the music in the game which gives the soundtrack a unique sound.
Rambutaan says: Great medieval tunes, and even though they're MIDI quality, they still sound good today.
Rambutaan says: This game had an awesome intro and an excellent theme song to back it up (which was incorporated with the in-game music). Oh the game wasn't too bad either.
Rambutaan says: A funky soundtrack incorporating a lot of licensed music with Grandmaster Flash at the helm.
Rambutaan says: Great music with different styles to fit each of the three sides. This game even had its own dance track as a theme song: "We escape from the blue... from the bluuuuueee..."
Rambutaan says: Awesome level music by a VGM veteran, Tommy Tallarico, who is also co-creator of the Video Games Live series.Groovy!
Rambutaan says: Robert Holmes (husband of Jane Jensen) makes excellent soundtracks and the Gabriel Knight theme is one of them.
Rambutaan says: A hilarious game where Jeremy Soule's heroic music juxtaposed with the bungling band of Meccaryns enhances the comedy.
Rambutaan says: While not using high quality samples, the dramatic soundtrack to Jagged Alliance was memorable and fit the game well.
Rambutaan says: The rock, blues and orchestal influences on this soundtrack made you feel as if you and your band of mercenaries were starring in an 80s action flick.
Rambutaan says: King's Quest V had a memorable soundtrack but King's Quest VI went so far as to create a soundtrack that wasn't too different from one you'd find for a Disney animated feature, complete with a rock ballad duet.
Rambutaan says: I didn't really get to play this game that much - it was pretty buggy. The music by Inon Zur was great though, the acoustic guitar pieces in particular.
Rambutaan says: I remember LBA's soundtrack with several uplifting and beautiful themes, sometimes almost making you want to cry. It was that good.
Rambutaan says: Just like its predecessor, LBA2 continues the tradition of having an awesome soundtrack.
Rambutaan says: One interesting aspect of the Locomotion soundtrack is that music changed depending on which time period you were in. In the 40s, you could expect to hear jazz while in the 80s, you'd hear synthpop.
Rambutaan says: The original had some nice music, but most of the game was played in silence. With MOO2 however you had a sci-fi opera feel to the soundtrack with different themes played for each of the races you meet in the game.
Rambutaan says: I don't know about Megarace 1 but Megarace 2 had a rockin' soundtrack for its time which really got you into the mood to burn some rubber and fire some missiles!
Rambutaan says: Another game with a most memorable and heroic theme, thanks to Jeremy Soule.
Rambutaan says: The great aspect of the Police Quest soundtracks are that they made you feel like you were in an 80s cop show - in fact Sierra even managed to get Jan Hammer (of Miami Vice theme fame) to score Police Quest 3!
Rambutaan says: They may be only MIDI tracks (or at least they sound like MIDI) but you can't help but tap your toes at some of these tunes as you review your metropolis!
Rambutaan says: The early Space Quests only really had music during the intro but this theme would be heard again and again in every Space Quest afterwards. Space Quest 3 had some extra memorable themes, like the Monolith Burger theme!
Rambutaan says: Lots of excellent variations of the Space Quest theme in these sequels, but my favourite would have to be Space Quest V where they parody Star Trek to death!
Rambutaan says: The soundtrack to Star Control 2 was so good that the original composers remixed their classics for the "remake" Ur-Quan Masters.
Rambutaan says: Adventure games tend to have beautiful soundtracks and Syberia is one of them, with a moving main theme to boot.
Rambutaan says: Thanks to the Daniel Indart Project, Tropic received a high-quality soundtrack that would give the Buena Vista Social Club a run for its money!
Rambutaan says: Ultima 6 was the first game that introduced me to Ultima and tunes that would become stalwarts of the series, including Stones, Rule Britannia and the Ultima theme.
Rambutaan says: Privateer had a theme song that they managed to incorporate in most of the soundtrack, including the combat and space station music. This means it wasn't a theme you'd soon forget!
Rambutaan says: The Wing Commander games had some awesome military themed music that helped immerse you into its military sci-fi universe.
Treat your GOGmix as your child - name it! ;)
Coming up with a cool and descriptive title should be your first priority. Being original is in your best interest - bet you wanna get lots of nice votes, right? Go all crazy if you want, but be sure to keep it civil!
So, what are the ingredients?
Pick a game that belongs in your GOGmix from the list, or find it by typing something in the text field. Relevance is key here - Earthworm Jim doesn't quite fit the "Sexiest heroines of all time" bill now, does it?
Justify your choice... Or not!
OK, so it's not required, but now that you went through the trouble of adding a game, telling everyone why you did it would be a nice finishing touch. After you're done here, add another game, rinse, repeat.

Fewer Arizona homes going into foreclosure
PHOENIX -- Fewer homes in Arizona and across the nation are entering foreclosure.
Foreclosure starts are down 33 percent in 2013 from 2012 nationally, according to Realty Trac. Arizona is showing a drop of almost 60 percent. Realtor Randy Courtney said the icing on the cake is that home prices continue to rise.
"Resale homes are the majority of sales and new home builders are gaining momentum. We're seeing a lot of positives," he said.
Home prices were up by about 20 percent last year in the Valley. Courtney expected an 8-9 percent boost this year.
