Made the drive from Cincinnati today to Winston-Salem to see Lynchburg play, and will catch Carolina in Zebulon in a couple days. Anyway, thought I'd report on what I observed of the Hillcats.
First off, the new Winston-Salem ballpark is extremely nice and fan-friendly; also interesting, with a series of turns and crannies and height changes along the outfield wall. It rained most of the day here and the crowd was moderate. A friend and I arrived about 45 minutes before game time and asked for tickets near the visitors' dugout if possible. We had no idea we'd be in the first row behind the dugout. Very pleasant.
Lance Janke started for Lynchburg. He's had a disappointing season. My friend, however, was impressed with the way he kept the ball down with sinkers or two-seamers. A few were so down that they bounced and gave Coddington kind of a rough time. Janke's fastest pitch was 91, and he at least kept Lynchburg in the game, with help from some nice defense.
About the defense: The best play was turned in by Brodie Greene at short, ranging to his right, fielding a ball on the grass, turning in the air and making a strong throw to retire a runner at first, aided by an excellent stretch from Neftali Soto. Carlos Mendez at third and Jose Gauldron at second also turned in nice backhand plays. In the outfield, Josh Fellhauer was very aggressive in left and showed some pretty good range. Felix Perez in center made a strong throw after fielding a ball laterally and nearly surprised a runner at second. In right, Efrain Contreras made a poor throw home that was probably the worst defensive play of the night for Lynchburg. Nick Christiani, in relief, came up with an excellent play on a well-placed bunt near the third-base line.
I of course was interested in watching Perez hit. He's not a big guy at all, and his batting style made me wonder about his ability to get around on a major-league fastball. He holds his bat with the head tilted toward the pitcher. He did yank an 89-mph fastball ball into right field for a triple, and smoked a single. He also wears a major-league chain around his neck. And he clearly enjoys playing the game. When it was over, he acknowledged my friend with a point and chest thump.
Soto has a very smooth stroke that starts by picking up his left foot fairly high. (Unfortunately, that's also his running style. He definitely has catcher speed.) Lynchburg's hardest-hit ball of the night might have been a bases-loaded DP, a screaming liner by Soto that, I believe, hit the pitcher, Chris Sale, in the chest before he grabbed it and doubled the runner at first. (At least, that's what it sounded like. Honestly, the ball was hit so hard that the play happened too fast for my eye or my friend's.) Greene looked good swinging the bat, and so did Mendez, who had a sharp, two-strike, bases-loaded single and drove another ball on a line to the track in left, where it was caught on a nice play. Unfortunately, Cody Puckett didn't play.
Christiani had one good inning before a bad one on which the game was decided. It was interesting that, after his first inning, Pat Kelly (manager) and Rigo Beltran (pitching coach) met him in front of the dugout and told him that he should have shown a certain hitter his good slider earlier in the count to set him up for the rest of the at-bat. Christiani--who once reached 94 on the stadium gun--gave up two homers in the eighth, the first by a catcher, Logan Johnson, who is listed as 5-9 but doesn't look more than about 5-7.
Another interesting player for Winston-Salem is the third baseman, Jonathan Gilmore. He's a good-looking hitter with terrific numbers, but what got the attention of me and my friend was his surprisingly awkward manner of throwing. Watching him in infield, he actually has a delay in the backswing of his throw. It looked so bad that, if I'd been a scout, I'd have dismissed him on the spot. When a ball was hit his way during the game, he throw to first in a very unorthodox submarine delivery--which at least eliminated the hitch in his backswing. But the guy was the best-looking hitter on the field. Another unusual player is the outstanding Winston-Salem reliever, Kyle Bellamy, whom Chris Welsh would describe as throwing from Laredo. Actually, you might have to go farther south to do him justice.
Anyway, the game seemed pretty much like a microcosm of what the Reds' system has been offering this year. Decent starting pitching. A competitive lineup. No pop. (None for Lynchburg since Mesoraco was called up, anyway). And blow-up relief. (Donnie Joseph didn't pitch.)

So far it has been beautiful. Not too cold, and being in the mountains it doesn't get too hot.
Many times we get terrible snow storms, therefore it is difficult to have class. However, the campus very carefully considers the safety of the students by cancelling class when conditions are dangerous. However, the weather is typically beautiful at Montreat.
Not in CA Anymore – It ranges from snowing to low 80s within the same week. It is very scattered and unpredictable.
We get the perfect blend of every season. Fall is gorgeous with the leaves changing colors. Winter is pretty with snow falling. It can be a little chilly sometimes, but for the most part it's not bitterly cold. Spring is also beautiful with the flowers blooming. Summer is not as hot, since we are in the mountains.
Montreat weather is beautiful most of the time. It doesn't get too hot or too cold, but it does rain more there because we're in the mountains.
{{review.SectionLabel}} at {{review.EntityName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
If you have spare time and a cup of coffee, Montreat is the place to be during a thunderstorm. Sitting on the library lawn (or on Anderson porch—a campus favorite), students can watch the storms as they come along the mountain ridge and unleash their fury. Watching a thunderstorm in the mountains from within a little "bowl" of a valley is an unforgettable experience. Similarly, sledding down the hills on campus in the winter is fun, as is going on photo shoots and walks in the spring or having picnics and class outside in the summer. Whatever the season, Montreat is the place to experience it, especially with cool seasonal activities (many off campus) like caving, skiing, hiking and more.
That being said, Montreat's weather is not perfect—if you're used to several feet of snow and can't imagine life without it, North Carolina is probably not the place to go to school. However, Montreat does get several inches of snow in the winter, prompting sledding, impromptu snowball fights, and epically-giant (and snazzily-dressed) snowmen. The College prepares for the weather, setting aside a series of snow days, and sending out email and text warnings about infrequent stray tornados in the summer. Overall, Montreat's weather is utopic. It rains fairly often during certain weeks but makes up for it with long stretches of sunshine. Although it can be a bit bipolar at times, students can easily prepare for the weather by packing an umbrella and rain boots for spring showers and SPF 45 for soaking up summer rays on the library lawn or by Lake Susan.

While there were some great moments in the Hurricanes most recent three-game road trip, the team still ended up displaying some of the inconsistent play that has troubled them over the last month.
A convincing 5-1 win in Montreal was sandwiched between losses to Tampa Bay and Detroit, continuing a trend of alternating wins and losses that goes back through the team's last seven games.
The good news is, if that trend were to continue, it would mean a victory over the Eastern Conference-leading Ottawa Senators at home Wednesday night. Although they've slowed lately from their blistering early-season form, the Senators are still the team to beat as they hold a four-point lead in the east despite having played fewer games than most of their competition.
In order to pick up a win on Wednesday and begin doing so on a more regular basis, coach Peter Laviolette says that his team will need to find some kind of happy medium with their offensive and defensive games, both of which have gone through significant struggles at different times this season.
"I think it's a pretty fine balance in trying to an offensively dynamic team and being good defensively," he said. "There's a lot of pressure on the players to make the right decisions. I think we're trying to find that balance right now."
The struggle to find that balance has been evident at different points this season. While defensive lapses were to blame in their two lopsided losses to Tampa Bay earlier this season, the offense was more of a problem in last week's 2-1 loss. Ditto the Canes' last game in Detroit, where the unofficial scoring chance count done by the coaching staff was the lowest it's been all season.
When the offense and defense are both clicking at the same time, you get something more along the lines of last Saturday's game in Montreal.
"I think from the first drop of the puck we came out with an intensity and we were flying," said forward Matt Cullen of that contest. "We were jumping, we were all over the puck and we made a lot of things happen, but at the same time we were really responsible defensively. In saying that, it was basically an all-around game."
"We played a much better five-man defensive game, we were up and down the ice together as a group," said Erik Cole, who has four points in his last two games. "When we come back hard and our D stand up and can control their gaps because our forwards are right there supporting them, it makes us a really tough team to play against."
If the Canes are get their second win in as many tries this season against Ottawa (they were the first team to beat the Senators all season back in early October), they'll likely have to do so without defenseman Mike Commodore, who continues to make progress on his broken finger but says Wednesday's game will probably be too soon.
They also won't have winger Andrew Ladd, who was assigned to Albany of the AHL for a four-game conditioning stint. After missing 16 games with an ankle injury earlier this season, the team felt it was best to let him get more playing time with the River Rats, which should eventually help him work his way back onto one of the Hurricanes' scoring lines.
What the Canes will have against Ottawa is the same team that is capable of games like the one in Montreal and their last victory against the Senators. All they have to do now is figure out how to do that more often.
"We do feel like we're getting better as a team," said Cullen. "For us the key is to keep getting better and keep improving. We feel like we're getting better and better and that's important to us. We need to work on bringing a consistent effort every night and hopefully the wins will start to pile up."

State Underfinancing Damages City Schools, Court Rules
Published: June 27, 2003
(Page 2 of 2)
But the majority opinion, written by Chief Judge Judith S. Kaye, did not go nearly so far. It confined the remedy to New York City and warned that unless other districts could show such gross and glaring inadequacies, as the city did, they "may find tougher going in the courts."
Indeed, as it ruled in favor of New York City, the court rejected a similar lawsuit concerning Rochester, in part because it failed to prove such widespread deficiencies in that city's schools.
For all the financial implications in New York City's case, it is as much an argument over words as money. Embedded within New York's Constitution is the promise of free schools "wherein all the children of this state may be educated."
Straightforward though it may seem, deciphering what that pledge means has given rise to 10 years of debate inside the courts, with some substantially different interpretations.
To the original trial judge, Justice Leland DeGrasse, that meant hoisting students beyond the level at which they could secure only "low-level jobs paying the minimum wage."
Because of the limited resources available to the city's schools, Judge DeGrasse ruled in 2001 that most of its students "leave high school unprepared for more than low-paying work, unprepared for college and unprepared for the duties placed upon them by a democratic society."
Last year, an appeals court disagreed that schools needed to prepare students for something "between low-level service jobs and the most lucrative careers." In fact, the justices decided that "society needs workers in all levels of jobs, the majority of which may very well be low level."
To stay off the welfare rolls, the justices ruled, an eighth- or ninth-grade education should suffice, and is therefore all the State Constitution requires.
In making its plea to the Court of Appeals, the plaintiffs contended that a "sound, basic education" should extend all the way through high school, and the judges readily agreed. "A high school education is now all but indispensable," Judge Kaye wrote.
How much such a guarantee would cost remains uncertain, and will doubtless become the center of intense debate in the coming year. State figures show that an average of $11,040 was spent per student statewide in the 1999-2000 school year, but only $10,469 in New York City because of what Judge Smith called a byzantine formula that parcels out money in an "arbitrary manner."
Once the state comes up with a better figure and makes use of it, whether the court reviews it may depend on how satisfied the plaintiffs are.
"If the state complies and does what it's supposed to do, everybody's happy and the court doesn't have to hear about it again," said Michael A. Rebell, executive director and counsel for the Campaign for Fiscal Equity.
"If everybody's not happy, though, then the court's going to have to hear about it."

Zab Judah Remembers Being Like Paris in The Old Days
By Keith Idec
There was a time during his star-crossed career when Zab Judah was among boxing's brashest trash-talkers.
These days, the 34-year-old former two-division champion is a lot less interested in trying to belittle his opponents prior to fights. When informed of some of the things Vernon Paris has said about him in recent weeks, some of which Judah deemed disrespectful, Judah just hasn't been inclined to respond.
"I think it shows your character as a person, the things that come out of your mouth," Judah said. "Evidently, that's his character. It's kind of funny because I remember being in that kind of position before, and I was what Paris is trying to be. I was that kid, a trash-talker and a loudmouth. You know what I'm saying? It don't pay to the bills."
Judah (41-7, 28 KOs, 2 NC), of Las Vegas, and the 24-year-old Paris (26-0, 15 KOs, 3 NC), of Detroit, will square off in a 12-round IBF elimination match March 24 in Judah's native Brooklyn, N.Y. The winner of their NBC Sports Network main event two weeks from Saturday night will become the mandatory challenger for the winner of a May 19 rematch between IBF/WBA 140-pound champion Lamont Peterson (30-1-1, 15 KOs) and Amir Khan (26-2, 18 KOs) in Las Vegas.
"It's going to be a 12-round fight and I'm fighting a fighter that's never been past eight rounds, ever in his career," said Judah, who was stopped by Khan in the fifth round of his last fight, July 23 in Las Vegas. "I've been 12 rounds numerous times with some of the top fighters in the world today. So that's it, you know what I'm saying? We're a hundred percent ready for this situation and ready to go."

Posted on 04/21/2014 7:26:06 AM PDT by Rusty0604
In a move with major legal implications, The California Supreme Court Advisory Committee on The Code of Judicial Ethics has proposed to classify the Boy Scouts as practicing invidious discrimination against gays, which would end the groups exemption to anti-discriminatory ethics rules and would prohibit judges from being affiliated with the group.
The Committees invitation ignores the fact that the change also encompasses other youth organizations whose membership is limited on the basis of gender, e.g., the Girl Scouts, as well as the military, which continues to practice discrimination on the basis of gender, wrote Catherine Short, legal director of the pro-life group Life Legal Defense Foundation, in a letter to the Committee obtained by TheDC that predicts possible implications for pro-life judges in the future.
Perhaps this is not an unintended consequence, wrote Short.
(Excerpt) Read more at dailycaller.com ...
We're going to have scoutmasters do inappropriate things with your boys and you're going to like it!
However, because Mexico is strong on gay rights, illegal aliens from that country will still be allowed to practice law. Oh wait, they aren't strong on gay rights.
Wait. I thought The Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts embraced homosexuality.
When will the gay Nazis recognize that in a free country, no one is forced to do what the other wants. But they don't want a free country, they want one where everyone owes them something, and they intend to collect.
"Faggots, Forward!"
(Just like soebarkah.)
Not good enough I guess. I wonder if they can carry this farther to what religion one is affiliated with?
"major legal implications,"
Yes. This is illegal and unconstitutional. And wrong. Knowing CA it will stand. So now the left goes back and looks at your charitable contributions, your affiliations, your postings.
This is nothing more than forcing people to pass a test of ideology. If the person has any sign of being a normal person, he is blackballed.
Ahhhhhh. A hidden agenda, eh?
No, the Mayor of Mexico City is very pro-homosexual and pushed for the legalization of same-sex marriage.
Please don't refer to homosexuals as 'gay'. There is nothing 'gay' about their conduct.
So any judge who was a scout is toast?
It's a purge using the suspension rationality associated with homosexual issues.
NAMBLA sees a great opportunity here...
There's no making the sodomites happy. Ever.
So, don't even try. Ever.
Why doesn't California just make a list of what is allowed and then make everything else illegal.
Only the youth BA members, for the time being ... but you probably already knew that.
How far we have fallen in the last 55 years when the Boy Scout Jamboree was always shown on TV and upheld as an example of good citizenship and leadership.
the BSA must love their new friends since pissing off Christians and conservatives.
Code of Judicial Ethics in California LOL.
By this logic belong to most religion would be banned too.
Most of the influx isn't from Mexico city.
Are they prohibited from joining La Raza or other seditious supremacist groups?
IF ONLY homosexuals could marry, they wouldn't molest boys. < /sarc >

In 2011 Newt Gingrich at Values Voter Summit How to Fight Back Against Out-of-Control Judges speech Newt said at the 4:54 mark: One of the major reasons that I am running for President of the United States is the 9th Circuit Court decision in 2002 that One Nation Under God in the Pledge of Allegiance was unconstitutional
At the 6:48 mark, Newt says: because if judges think they are unchallengeable they are inedible corrupt. Corrupted in a moral sense. I dont mean taking money, but I mean in a sense of arrogance, in the sense of imposing on the rest of us. Whether it is one judge in California deciding he knows more than 8 million Californians about the definition of marriage, whether it is a judge San Antonio who rules that not only can school children can not say a prayer at their graduation, they can not use the word benediction, they can not use the word invocation, they can not use the word God, they can not ask the audience to stand, and if they do any of these things, he will lock up their superintendent.
Now the idea of an American judge becoming a dictator of words is so alien to our tradition, and such a violation of our Constitution as I will explain in a moment, that that judge should be removed from office summarily.
At the 10:53 mark, Newt says: Jefferson is the most clear example of taking on the judiciary, in the Judicial Reform Act of 1802, the Jeffersonians eliminated 18 out of 35 federal judges. Didnt impeach them, just abolish their office and told them to go home.
Now Im not, let me be clear, I am not as bold as Jefferson. I think the judge in San Antonio would be an important initial signal and I think the 9th Circuit Court should be served notice that it runs the risk of ceasing to exist.
That's what this already is. Homosexuality has all the earmarks of being the official "state" religion of the US and many states. Homosexuality was the defining practice of many pagan religions in the dim past. It's just come full circle.
Who says there's a "separation of church and state...?"
Of course. The working definition of "religious tolerance" of the left can be summed up as "ABC"
"Anything But Christian"
Homosexuality is just a convenient camouflage for the left's endeavors to criminalize Christianity.
Agreed there.. It irritates me when I still see people use 'gay'.. The queers have changed the definitions of our language for too long :/ (actually, the progressives/Marxists).
So much for that bit in the Constitution about the freedom of association.
Sheer madness.
I remember watching some old movie and they were singing about being gay, meaning happy. I was thinking about how much things have changed in so little time.
Loyalty oaths are making a comeback. But while the original ones were designed to neutralize the march of communism in the US, these ones are designed to continue the hoped-for annihilation of Christianity in the US. And what better way to do it than through single-issue judges.
Okay if I where a young teenager today I would be all about joining the girl scouts...let me at em.../S
next will be "you can not hold a law license" then "can not be a teacher" next will be "not allowed to go to college"
how very commie agenda.

Another Sandy Hook Inconsistency - Caught on local talk radio
Poster Handle
Anonymous Coward
Post Content
Lanza next arrived at teacher Victoria Soto's classroom. Soto is believed to have hidden her 6- and 7-year old students in a classroom closet. When Lanza demanded to know where the children were, Soto tried to divert him to the other end of the school by saying that her students were in the auditorium.
But six of Soto's students tried to flee. Lanza shot them, Soto and another teacher who was in the room. Later, in their search for survivors, police found the remaining seven of Soto's students still hiding in the closet. They told the police what had happened.

Anonymous Coward 14408911
Yes you are citing the Courant article, which hasn't been corrected. This guy on the radio today sounded genuine, and said his granddaughter was one of the survivors from Ms. Soto's class, which, according to the official story, were all found in the closet by the cops. but he's saying she ran out. Get it? The radio call-in guy's story doesn't match the official story. So was he a fraud? As I say, he didn't sound like it. I don't know if the broadcast can be found online now, but it took place today on WTIC at 11:55AM or so.
Two Boys and four girls from Ms Soto's class saw her killed and escaped. They were later found by an older gentleman who had been out to breakfast and came home to find them sitting in a semicircle on his front lawn.
When he asked what they were doing there (he had not heard about the event) they told him they could not go back to school because they had not teacher. They could not go back to school because the teacher was dead.
Anonymous Coward 20569884
Didn't they say she heroically hid them all in the closet and stood in front of it, a human shield, telling the guman "go shoot them in the gym"?
Did one of the kids dropped in the driveway by the magical school bus say that's what she did? Is that where the story comes from?
Try watching Dr Oz archived show from last Thursday--one of the kids he interviewed said they were "having a drill" before OZzie cut him off..

School of Psychology
University of Queensland
Brisbane, QLD 4072
BBSc (Hons); PhD LaTrobe University
After completing my honours degree in psychology at LaTrobe University in Melbourne I had a brief stint as a psychologist at Mont Park Psychiatric Hospital and discovered that I was terribly under prepared for clinical work. I returned to do my Ph.D. in clinical psychology at Latrobe University focusing on social anxiety and skills training, which I completed in 1979. I taught at the Lincoln Institute for four years, working in health psychology and establishing a multi-disciplinary Post Graduate Diploma in Community Health. In 1982 the call of warmer climates led me to Brisbane where I took a job as a Senior Lecturer in Psychology at what was then Brisbane College of Advanced Education (now part of Queensland University of Technology), where I co-ordinated a Post Graduate Diploma in Counseling, and developed a part-time private practice. I wanted to get more seriously into research, and took a job as a Lecturer in Clinical Psychology in the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Queensland, and began working with couples and families. For 5 years from 1990 to the end of 1994 I was appointed to a conjoint position as Chief Psychologist of the Royal Brisbane Hospital and Reader in Clinical Psychology. In 1995 I was appointed as Professor and Head of the School of Applied Psychology at Griffith University, where I worked for 14 years in a range of management roles, and sustained and built my research on couple relationships. In 2009 I began as Professor of Clinical Psychology and Director of Clinical Training in the School of Psychology at The University of Queensland. I am a practicing clinical psychologist, an active researcher and a clinical teacher. My specialist area of expertise and enthusiastic interest is couples and families, with a focus on developing and evaluating innovative interventions.
I love travel and have been fortunate to build this into my work by being a Visiting Professor at the University of Oregon (1989), Manchester University (1993), University of North Carolina (1997), Chinese University of Hong Kong (2006) and University of Zurich (2012), as well as being a regular visitor and collaborator with colleagues at Denver University, Brigham Young University and the Technical University of Braunschweig. These experiences have sparked in me a keen interest in cross-cultural issues in family psychology.
A little personal note
I am married to Barbara, who is also a psychologist, and have two wonderful adult sons Chris and James. I cherish these family link, and value keeping contact with a circle of special friends. I also like to meet the demands of being a tragically passionate Brisbane Lions supporter as well as being an enthusiastic but unskilled cook, tennis player, skier, photographer, yoga practitioner, and surfer. Consequently, clinical psychology is a very important but not all consuming passion in my life. (So relying on replies to e-mail from me over the weekend, or while I am on leave, is only like to cause disappointment.)

Clinical Practice
I maintain an active practice in clinical psychology, which I have for most of my career, except for a 4 year lapse when I entertained the idea that I was a university manager. (An idea I have now recovered from.) I work predominantly with adults, and have particular interest in couple relationships.
My major research focus is couple relationships:
· how healthy relationships help people to adapt to stressful events.
· determinants of relationship satisfaction and stability
· promoting healthy couple relationships through relationship education and therapy
· dissemination of evidence based couple interventions
Significant contributions of my work include
· development of brief couple therapy approaches
· assessment and intervention with couples in which one partner has significant
psychological disorder (e.g., depression, anxiety, alcohol abuse gambling)
· assessment and reduction of risk of future relationship problems
· development and dissemination of self-directed learning processes for promoting healthy couple relationships.
Current work focuses upon
· Further evaluation and dissemination of the Couple Commitment and Relationship
Enhancement (Couple CARE) program
· Developing and evaluating relationship enhancement programs for step-families,
· Developing and evaluating programs for couples in crisis (e.g., as a result of diagnosis
of cancer in one of the partners.
· Innovations to enhance the efficacy of couple therapy
. Family mediation for separated parents

Former works Yamaha rider Spies has been recruited to the revamped Pramac squad - which now enjoys full works support - to join Moto2 graduate Andrea Iannone.
Andrea Dovizioso and Nicky Hayden will ride the factory entries.
Ducati MotoGP project director Paolo Ciabatti said: "We're very confident that Ben Spies will be able to use his talents to help us with the development of the bike and to achieve the results we're after more quickly."
Spies said joining Ducati was a dream move for him.
"I am excited to be a part of the Ducati family," he said. "This is something I've wanted from the beginning of my racing career.
"My team and I have our work cut out for us and new goals to meet, but we'll benefit from factory support and Audi coming on board.
"Ducati has four strong riders with different styles, which should improve the Desmosedici and bring it back up to the top where it belongs."
Spies won the World Superbike title for Yamaha as a rookie in 2009, before being brought into the firm's second-string MotoGP squad Tech 3 for the following season.
Two years in Yamaha's factory line-up followed, but only brought one victory, with Spies deciding to leave Yamaha during a frustrating 2012 campaign.

Hi there,
I'm attempting to add multiple sliders to one post, but I'm not having much success. I also tried using attributes to make the sliders different, but I'm still only seeing one slider on the website.
This is what I've pasted into the post:
[nggallery id=8 template="sliderview"]
[nggallery id=6 template="sliderview" theme="black"]
[nggallery id=10 template="sliderview" theme="blue"]
The first one is showing up, but below that on the website it only says [gallery not found]. That message was the only change from having no extra attributes, to haveing theme attributes. I'm sure I'm doing something incorrectly, I'd really appreciate some tips on how to fix this!
Thank you!

How To Host a Video Gaming Party That Everyone Will Love
Pre-Party Prep
1. Choose games that have group appeal; that means being as fun to watch as to play.
Between the stalwart party game favorites and the release of all these new motion-controllers, there are plenty of options to suit your personal preference.
Our favs:
- Dancing games: Dance Central (Kinect) and Just Dance 2 (Wii) are the top of the heap here, mostly because they let the players feel like dancing kings and queens, to the delight and horror of onlookers.
- Sports games: Wii Sports rules for ease of play alone. Tennis and Bowling are two options that are easy to pick up, easy to play and have quick sessions, making it ideal for larger groups.
- Music games: Rock Band, Dance Dance Revolution and Guitar Hero are all available for the Wii, Xbox 360 and PS3, and they are all loads of fun. However, they also all require purchasing peripherals which don't typically see much use outside of party events like this one.
- Trivia games: You Don't Know Jack (Wii, Xbox, PS3, Nintendo DS, Windows), everyone's favorite snarky trivia challenge, is back, and it's better than ever. We loved it in the 90's, and are eagerly awaiting our copy's arrival on our doorstep.
2. Invite Your Friends
Invite your friends over with these cutesy customizable printed invitations, or go nostalgic with Polaroid note cards.
If you're into saving paper, you can coordinate schedules using meeting scheduling services like ScheduleOnce.
3. Organize Your Space
First, make sure your gaming area can accommodate the play. For example, the Kinect requires a significant amount of space -- that's going to mean some furniture rearrangement.
To keep the players comfy, check out these cool low-profile gaming chairs by San Franciscos's Upwell. For spectators, there is a huge variety of bean bags, loungers, squishy cubes and floor cushions, all for very reasonable prices.
On the Day
4. Sort food and drinks
Whether it's Pac Man cookie cutters or Space Invaders ice cubes, theming is the name of the, er, game.
These game-themed drinks from the Girls Are Geeks blog are based on Alan Wake, Mass Effect and Fallout 3. If you're feeling a bit more generally geeky, here are 10 drinks themed around Star Trek.
On the gastronomic front, TechEBlog offers up some 8-bit nibbles. A preview: Skittles = pixels!
5. During gameplay, change it up
Keep a timer if you need people to switch in and out of game playing sessions, and keep the spectators' enjoyment in mind by having some other games on hand, in case people get bored waiting for their turn. There are a lot of new electronic games that build on nostalgic classics, like this Connect Four-ish version of Tetris.
6. Relax and have some fun!
You've worked hard to organize and host that party, so remember to sit back and enjoy your friends, food and fun.
Have you ever hosted a game-based or geek-themed party? Have any tips to share? Let us know!

Fairy tale Castle 4.5 meters wedding cake made by lenovellecake
"A pair of young and beautiful Indonesian celebrities have got the town talking over their epic wedding.
Chelsea Olivia Wijaya and Glenn Alinskie stunned wedding guests, fans and followers after they unveiled a ceremony that featured swans and unicorns.
The highlight of the event was a 4.5-meter highly-detailed white wedding cake completed with towers, flags and a pair of heart-shaped stairs - looking like it came straight out of a Disney cartoon. The castle cake not only looked stunning, but was also edible."
This wedding dress is actually a cake. It took over 300 hours for 3 expert cake artists to build the elaborate, 165-pound gown, which features edible details like skirt ruffles, intricate lace pieces, and silver beading. Source
