The Olympic Games - Symbols and Creeds

With any great tradition or event there must be a theme or motto that underscores it's purpose. From the very beginning Pierre De Coubertin sought to promote the highest possible ideals and achievements as a part of the Olympic Games. In line with this the Olympic motto is "Swifter, Higher, Stronger". In Latin - "Citius, Altius, Fortius". It was a line that was apparently coined by Henri Didon who was a friar and sports enthusiast as well as a good friend to De Coubertin. It certainly expressed the original focus of this international event.

De Coubertin first introduced this credo at the 1924 Games in Paris. And although the Olympic Games have certainly highlighted great wins and outstanding world records De Coubertin hoped that more importantly the participation at this global event would inspire an optimistic and productive approach in all avenues of life. This is outlined in the Olympic Creed that reads in part:

"The most important thing in the Olympic Games is not to win but to take part, just as the most important thing in life is not the triumph but the struggle. The essential thing is not to have conquered but to have fought well."

As an added symbol of the universality of the Olympic Games De Coubertin unveiled what would become the official Olympic flag after the Stockholm Games in 1912. The flag is white in it's background with five interlocking rings of different colors which are black, blue, green, red and yellow. Together they represent five inhabited continents. The Americas being regarded as one continent. With no ring being specifically designated to any particular continent.

The colors are such that any nation has at least one of these colors in it's national flag. And the fact that they are interlocked is meant to represent the ideal of unity as these nations come together in the healthful pursuit of great physical achievement. It is a symbol of the Games that the Olympic Committee is very protective of in terms of copyright issues desiring it's message to remain unsullied by any potential parodies.

The Olympic flag is raised with great ceremony at the beginning of the Games and then lowered at the close. The mayor of the city that has hosted the current Games then returns it to the president of the IOC who then passes it to the mayor of the city that will next host the Games. This particular ceremony originated in Antwerp in 1920.

Microsoft Xbox 360 Kinect Games - Kinect Sports Review

Microsoft Xbox 360 Kinect - Kinect Sports

With the launch of Microsoft's new "Kinect" add-on for Xbox 360 comes a range of interactive games and fitness programs which by far surpass anything previously available.

There has been a good deal written about Kinect and most of it has been extremely positive. Here I would like to give you a review of Kinect Sports.

Kinect Sports.

With Kinect Sports you can make your own living room into a fabulous sports stadium with track and field events, soccer pitch and even a bowling alley. The cool thing is whatever sport you play, you are the star! There is also boxing, volleyball and table tennis.

Now this is nothing like previous systems. With Kinect you can even apply topspin.

It is very good fun and intuitive, great for parties and family gatherings. Whether you're going for the winning goal of getting a thumping in the ring, it's down to you and even as a spectator it really is enormously entertaining.

Details

There is a total of six individual and team based sports - beach volleyball, table tennis, soccer, boxing, track and field and bowling. Each game throwing up new challenges. It is really quick and easy to get right into the game as it is so intuitive.

Solo Sport.

There are several games for the single player with various levels of play for all ages which encourage and challenge all skill sets. Switch to party mode and compete against a friend or get a relay team together and jump in and out to get the best from your team.

Team Sport

"Kinect Sports" places your own avatar in the spotlight so that you can live the dream of world class athletes and sports stars. With that of course comes the press attention and the accolades of your team mates. You can even decorate your avatar with awards and medals for your victories.

Conclusion

It would not be an exaggeration to say this is the most fun I have ever had with an Xbox. The whole family were in hysterics. I can highly recommend the Xbox 360 kinetics games and certainly kinect sports.

The World of Sports in Video Games

I remember the sports games I used to play on my Nintendo, the characters barely had some details, they all look square, and they barely had graphics in the games. But now when you play your favorite sport game on your Xbox 360 or on your PlayStation 3, it is like watching the game live. The characters and graphics look so real that you feel the game is sucking you in.

Every year the sports gaming industries, keep making the games better. No matter if the game is: basketball, football, wrestling, baseball, soccer, etc... I personally like playing basketball, baseball and wrestling games. I consider myself a very competitive person, so I enjoy playing these types of games online, because I love the challenge.

I've got good news for you, sport gamer. You could gain money by doing the same thing I do; being a game tester. You'll have the opportunity to try new sports games before they come out, and you can keep them. I bet you are confused but let me explain. There are over 50 gaming companies that need game testers to try out their brand new games, for any error or glitch that they may encounter, because they have to make sure they are throwing a top quality game with no error.  If you would know that a game has an error while playing, you wouldn't buy it. So that's why they need game testers.

Getting paid by doing what you love is best thing ever. The time to enter into the world of sport in video games and become a game tester is now. So turn that dream into a reality and join me in the world of sports gaming community.

Wii Games For Teens - Games Even You Might Love!

When you think of the Wii gaming system from Nintendo you probably only think about kids and teens playing it. You might have never even given a look to the games that they are playing to see if you might like them or not. If you had you might find that some of the games that they are playing catch your interest and you might want to jump in and play them as well. If you have never played the Wii then make sure that you know about some of the games that are available so that you will be able to experience everything that it has to offer.

Video games are not all shooting games and violence like a lot of people write them off to be. There are a ton of games that are a lot of fun that have nothing to do with any type of violent activities. For example, there are different sports games in which you have to simulate the action just as if you were really doing it in order to play the game. If you are playing one of the fun bowling games that is available on Wii then you will have to actually wind up and move your arm in the same motion that you would if you were at the bowling alley rolling the ball down the lane, and if you are playing baseball you will actually have to move as if you were hitting or throwing the ball.

There are also some different types of Wii games that teens are playing which involve exercise. That's right, Wii figured that if kids were going to be playing games they might as well get a little bit of exercise while they are at it. The only problem is they made the games too good and now a lot of parents have joined in on the fun. Games like the Wii Fit or Jillian Michaels Fitness Ultimatum have kept teens and parents busy for hours at a time getting the exercise that they need.

There are a lot of great Wii games for teens to play and the games that they are playing are ones that you will like as well. Nintendo did an excellent job making sure to get the entire family together for the best gaming experience on the planet. The next time the kids turn the Wii on you do not have to leave the room or busy yourself with some other activity, join right in and have some fun right along with them.

Sports Betting Strategies - What Does The Latest News Really Meant For You

To be truly successful in sports betting, you need to constantly catch up with the latest news and updates of the teams, players and sports. You are always looking out for factors that can affect the result of the game so that you can gain an advantage over the bookies. However, what does all these current situation news really means or how can they affect the game indirectly?

1) Player Transfers
Firstly, for team sport, it is extremely important to look out for buying and selling of players. New players must destabilize the harmony of the team and affect the performance of the team directly. On the other hand, having a new star player directly boast the morale of the team and increase their capabilities.

2) Change of managers/ coaches
This is an extremely important point which many fail to look out for. With the change in the management, there is a change in the strategy and game plan. The players need time to adapt to the new strategy and may not be as effective as before.

3) Player relationship with the rest
With the increase exposure of sports to media, the players' lifestyle is under scrutiny. Some of them are unable to take the limelight and suffer a deterioration of their performance. So check out the news on players' lives too.

The Sports Betting Game - Picking A Good System For The Sports Betting Game - Part 2

When choosing a sports betting system, there are many things that go into the selection process. Usually the first thing that comes to mind is the pricing of the system. Another that comes to mind is what you actually get with the system. But the most important thing to consider is the win percentage. How often does the system pick winning bets? Lets take a look at these.

Pricing

Why does the pricing play such a big role if you really want to bet on the sports? Any price should be viewed as an investment in your future profits because if you've chosen a good system, the investment will more than likely pay for itself in a short period of time. This is a very important thing to keep in mind. Not all sports betting systems are priced exactly the same way, and this is why you need to way the price against what you get with the system. This determines the value.

Value

When looking at the value of a system you are interested in a few things. You want a system that is easy to understand and use. Another important thing is support. You need support from someone who actually knows how to bet on the sports and is available to answer your questions from time to time. You also need a sports betting system that makes good picks on a consistent basis.

Win Percentage

If you've found a great system, with a good price, and good support what else are you looking for. You want to pick a winner above all else. What good is a system that can't make winning picks? The percentage at which the system makes solid, winning picks outweighs most of the other benefits that the system comes with. If you are able to use a system that picks winners a very good portion of the time, you will become a very good sports bettor in no time. Do you know why? Its because of your sports betting system.

Games and Sports

All of us have several needs and requirements. The basic essentials of life are undoubtedly food, clothing and shelter. In order to provide ourselves with these we are occupied in some work or other. In order to avoid becoming dull all of us involve ourselves in some form of play. Games and sports form part of such play or entertainment. As such their value is beyond question. However, is entertainment the sole value of games and sports? Do they serve a more important function?

There is a famous saying by the Duke of Wellington that the battle of Waterloo was won on the playing fields of Eton. By this he meant that boys learned courage, manliness, the fighting spirit, honor and fair play in games, the will to win, and these virtues make them great soldiers when their country calls them to the field of battle. The Duke intended to show that sports not only entertain but also educate us in the virtues which help to win the battle of life and the struggle for existence.

Participation in sports and games strengthens character. Life is a struggle, a constant fight against difficulties, against adversities, against disappointments. The man who has not developed the strength of character and the moral strength to fight back will resign himself to what he calls his fate. He is a moral coward. He is not a sportsman. For the true sportsman defeat is a challenge and will only spur him to greater efforts.

It is of course a common knowledge that sports helps a person to improve and maintain his physical condition. The person who takes part regularly in games will not only have a good physique but will also be relatively free from the usual minor ailments that trouble those who are less active. Sportsmen thus usually remain physically fit.

Racquetball Defense Schemes

Like other sports games, there are two main things that matter in racquetball: offense and defense. Offense is a series of moves initiated by one combatant to help him win the fight.

Defense alternatively is the series of moves in reaction to the opponents offensive moves. The following are some tips on defense strategies.

Focus court

In racquetball, the middle court is the strongest position. In the middle court, you are on top of things. If your opponent is occupying it, you are in a defensive position. You have to strive to take it away.

Getting your opponent out of the focus court can be performed by hitting a ceiling shot or a pass shot. Stay out of the side walls in the least times. Your opponent dominates the court if you're on the side walls.

Kill shot

The kill shot is hitting the ball low plenty of to the front wall without hitting the side walls. Done perfectly, this can establish the ball bounce twice on the floor making it impossible to be returned.

The best way to do a kill shot is hitting the ball a couple of inches off the floor straight to the front wall.

Pass shot

In racquetball, the pass shot is one very good defensive shot. The excuse is simple: Anyone can execute it, whether you are a pro or a newcomer.

Hit the ball toward the front wall making it come as far away from your opponent as possible. Choose hitting it "down the line" or "cross court".

"Down the line" means hitting the ball parallel to the side wall and making it come straight back between the side wall and you.

A "cross court" hit means hitting the ball against the side wall farthest from your location. The ball will fly between your opponent and the side wall.

To be considered a good defensive shot, slam the ball fast adequate as you can muster. Make it go together with such speed that your opponents slow reaction time will result in the ball to bounce twice before hitting the back wall.

The Z-ball shot

This is the shot that hits the front wall first, then one wall and finally the other side wall and returns parallel with the back wall. The ball gathers adequate spin as it hits the three walls.

Done correctly, the ball rolls alongside the back wall which makes it hard for your opponent to return.

Around the world

Another defensive shot can be executed in times when you're out of position. Doing this should actually be done with adequate force.

Hit the ball hard enough into a side wall with sufficient momentum to rebound on the front wall and still have adequate energy to hit the other side wall as high as possible. The ball will bounce to the floor nearly behind the center court heading to the other back corner.

From there, it will make a second bounce after hitting the back corner wall.

Other defenses

They're other defensive moves done usually by the pros of the game. Some are combination's of these popular ones and some are variations.

Racquetball is as with other sport where the fun resides in the struggle between players. Of course, as everyone knows, the best defense is offense.

Dice Sports Games That Are Fun - The Baseball Game

This is the third installment in a world of incredibly fun sports games played with dice. In the first installment I taught you how to play the college version of Dice Football. Then in the second you learned the Pro Football dice game. Now it is Dice Baseball, which is the first dice game that I ever invented. Just as in my football games you will need two dice, notebook paper and a pen or pencil to play dice baseball.

You will recall that in the college football game you got your box score set up so that you can begin the game and just take turns for four quarters. In the baseball game you will have to make a box score sheet that has nine boxes split in half. These two halves represent the home team and the visitors. Remember that in baseball the home team always bats last and should be on the bottom of the two box halves.

As in real baseball each team rolls for nine innings. The exception of course is the home team. If the home team is winning after the visitor has finished his half of the ninth, then there is no need for the home boys to roll the ninth. Just like in real baseball the game is over and the dice can hit the showers.

Batting is pretty simple. Each team gets to start their half of an inning by rolling the dice once. If the two die total an even number then they can roll again. That is because even dice totals equal one single. An even dice total will be one of the following combinations; 1+3=4, 1+5=6, 2+4=6, 2+6=8, 3+5=8, 4+6=10. If the next roll yields an even number then there has been another hit. Now in baseball terms this means that there are, two men on base. The rolling player now gets a third roll. As you can see where this is going, another even number means that the bases are loaded. A fourth consecutive even dice result will bring home the first run and each consecutive roll will continue to bring home runners until the roller finally rolls an odd dice total.

Any odd dice total represents the end of an inning. Thus, if a player rolls an odd number on his first roll, then that inning is over. The odd dice totals are as follows; 1+2=3, 1+4=5, 1+6=7, 2+3=5, 2+5=7, 3+4=7, 3+6=9, 4+5=9, 5+6=11. A really cool thing to do during this game is to see if you can get a no-hit game. You can do this by simply putting a dot in the innings that a player rolls an odd number. You can start this on their initial first inning roll. Each consecutive inning thereafter that the player continues to perform a first odd roll continues the no-hitter up until the player finally rolls an even number. If they fail to roll at least one even number in nine innings that means you pitched a no-hitter. Time to call Cooperstown!

So where are the homeruns? I bet you are glad that I asked. Any time a player rolls a double-dice roll, he has hit a Homerun! That is all that it takes; doubles aka, two of a kind. Better yet, if there are any men on base then they score with the homerun. Yes, with the bases loaded a homerun is a grand slam.

This is an example of how the baseball game can be played. Let us say the visitors roll a 2+3 on his initial first inning roll. The visitors inning is considered over and with no hits. The home team rolls a 4+6 (10) on the first roll. That represents a base hit or one man on base. The home player then rolls a 3+5 (8) thus getting a second man on base. Then he rolls a 1+4 (5). The inning is over. End result of the first inning is 0 to 0.

The visitor starts his second inning with a pair of threes (3+3). Boom, he hit a homerun. He then rolls a 2+5 (7), which means the inning is over. The visitor has scored a run in their half of the second and leads the game, 1 to 0. The home team starts with a 2+4 (6) single. Then on the next roll the home player rolls a pair of fours (4+4). The home player has hit a two run homerun since there was a man already on base. The next roll is a 3+4 (7) out and that ends the second inning with the home team ahead, 2-1.

Now for the rest of the game neither team scores again until the ninth inning when the visitor strings together six consecutive even numbers before rolling the inevitable odd number. That means the visitor scored three runs and now leads the game, 4-2. Then the home team follows with three consecutive rolls of doubles (homeruns); which means they won the game, 5-4. What a comeback!

If the score ends in a tie after nine innings then just keep playing one inning at a time until someone finally wins. That is what baseball calls, extra-innings. In the next article I will attempt to teach you about the college basketball dice games. Till then, keep on rolling.

Sports Betting Secrets - Where's Your Motivation To Win The Wager?

Always find yourself day dreaming away doing things that you love to do but you cannot at the moment? It is good to have dreams but not day dreaming. What more important is putting actions into pursuing your dreams. I understand that taking the first step is the most difficult part but preserve for at least 21 days so that you mindset can be conditioned into doing it. It is the same for sports betting, are you disciplined enough to follow through your plans and strategy before calling it quits?

Or how badly do you want to win the bets? Where is your motivation coming from? I believe one of the most important tips that experts always miss out is on the motivation part which gives you energy to commit yourself as well as doing your research. Let's be honest with ourselves, why do we want to win the wager? Avoid lost or you want to win? By avoiding losses, you are not motivated to carry out your plan and only do the minimum analysis for the games. Whereas wanting to win because you need money or what money can provide for you give a positive drive for you to put in effort to ensure you win your bets.

So, you need to understand what you want to achieve from sports betting. If you say you want to earn lots of money from the games, then your motivation needs to be very strong. On the other hand, if you are just happy just a few hundred bucks per month, your motivation level would be lower.

Therefore, discover your true motive in wanting to win the sports bets before blaming anyone else.

Games and Obesity

It should not be rocket scientists to find one that video games and obesity are linked. I must admit I am a bit 'jealous and grateful at the same time that technology was not there today than I was a child. Games can be fun and very addictive.

The consequences of this is that video games can cause obesity Games such as obesity is a cause for video playback.

Comparison between video games and television obesity seems obvious enough that television is the greatest evil of the two. Most traditional video games require the use of two hands to operate the game controller. You might think that when you play video games for childrenSnacking less and are not exposed to advertisements for unhealthy food. Of course the flip side of this theory, the key "Pause." In addition, some studies have shown that heavier children do more time in sedentary activities than fewer children. Children with lower body mass index are more likely to use for non-computer game, and their game is different.

Video games and obesity, the producers of electronic games have had a bad pathsReputation over the years. But like any good business they came up with a solution that will well be an answer to childhood obesity. Built-in console games like Nintendo Wii has opened a new perspective on physical activity. "Children burn more than four times more calories per minute playing an active video game than a game of sitting and their heart rate was significantly higher with active play," according to a report in the SeptemberArchives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine.

The Nintendo Wii game is easy to use and fun for everyone, even the spectators. It comes with 5 sports games: bowling, golf, boxing, tennis, baseball, and together with other features such as a body mass index calculator and a tracking system for a maximum of 8 participants. The game is played with the controller in a manner similar to how a bowling ball club or golf. Another popular game is the game system XaviX.Very similar to Nintendo's Wii, but also sports games, involving more physical activity like jogging through the use of a mat game called XaviX J-Mat.

It 'good to know that video games and obesity have hope. Games are priced to go, but when it comes to your baby's health is worth the investment. Exter entertainment games might pay for itself if you look the space savings of medical bills, emergencyVisits and other costs associated with treating obesity is linked. If you find a win in any situation with the children and video games can enjoy a positive solution for the whole family. Dr. David Katz, director of the Prevention Research Center at Yale University School of Medicine mobilized to provide a useful source of physical activity, "the power of technological progress can be achieved by the enemy to friend with regard to child health" (Reinberg,HealthDay, 01/09/2008, thickener Melle / McManus, Archives of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine, September 2008]). While this has proven beneficial, parents should encourage outdoor activities to prevent further obesity.

Basketball
Basketball in Greece has a long history as one of eight founding members of the International Basketball Federation (often by the French acronym for Fédération Internationale de Basketball Notes - FIBA) was founded in Geneva in 1932, two years after the sport officially recognized by the IOC.

Greece is usually an important power in international basketball and watch as a nationalthe best in the world, won the European Championship twice in 1977 and 2005.

The Olympic Games

Prior to 1970 the Games officially limited to competitors with amateur status, but in 1980 many events were opened to professional athletes.

The original Olympic Games began in 776 BC in Olympia, Greece. Held every four years (an Olympiad) and is dedicated to the gods of the game reached its climax in the 5th and 6th century BC.

Romans won the games of limited significance as the power in Greece. The games were celebrated tradition in 393 AD, when Emperor Theodosius ordered them to worship a "pagan" and outlawed and thus ending a thousand years.

The interest in the revival of the Games as an international event began when German archaeologists discovered the ruins of ancient Olympia in the heart of the 19th Century.
