Help with display placement

I am new to Python and am attempting to write a routine that will display a 
five game selection for a power ball drawing. I think I have the random 
drawing set to work ok, but I want to have the dialog box move in the center 
of my screen. I can't seem to get the code correct to do this. Any help 
would be appreciated.
Thanks,
S
This is the routine I have.
