investment casting 

A molding process whereby precious metals are melted down and formed into household items, sporting-goods, etc., enabling their buyers to be less "obvious" or "visible" in their acquisition of said valuable minerals than they would be if they simply purchased coins, bars, etc.
Two excellent examples of investment casting would be electrical/plumbing components and golf clubs, which can be formed from gold, silver, platinum, etc. and installed/stored in the investor's home without anyone's being the wiser.

Cater Casting

Cater Casting occurs when a film is cast with too many recognizable stars - say as with Ocean's 11, 12, and now 13.

Look at any billboard for Ocean's 13. Who do you see? The stars, George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Andy Garcia, Al Pacino, Don Cheadle, Berney Mac? Nah. With so many stars in the film, each individual's "star power" is diminished and you start to see what looks like the catering crew at any 4-5 star Hotel in Los Angeles.
The film, Ocean's 13, is an example of Cater Casting.

Jelly-casting 

When you start to plan something so far in advance that there are multiple variables and changes before execution of the plan, but you have to say and do something about it now or no one will be ready.
My wife and I started jelly-casting next year's vacation before we were done with this year's vacation.
