By David Meshioye and Adeboye Amosu in Kigali:
Syli Stars of Guinea coach Kanfory Bangoura says he never doubted his team's ability to qualify for the quarter-finals of the on-going Africa Nations Championships ahead of the Super Eagles despite coming to the final group match needing a win.
Speaking at the end of his team's 1-0 victory which eliminated Nigeria, Bangouara said bookmakers had tipped Nigeria to qualify ahead of Guinea but he was happy to send the Eagles out of the tournament after propelling his players to push the Nigerians back by keeping the ball.
He said the Nigerian team is not as good as people think after he took time to study them, saying the Eagles were lucky to have conceded just one goal in the match.
"We deserved to qualify for the quarter-finals because we played good football while Nigeria sat back to defend," Bangoura said.
"I believe in my players and today they did not disappoint millions of fans back home.
"This is a huge win for Guinea and I really commend the commitment and determination of my players.
"We will be inspired by the this victory."I stayed away from making LOVE for years, due to my Premature Ejaculation.. But these simple solutions WORKED! - Click Here To Read

Hitachi has just announced the addition of two new models to their Super-Short Focus 3 LCD projectors. In case you're not too familiar, Hitachi's Super-Short Focus LCD projectors have the ability to project huge images while being just a short distance away from the screen.Advertisement, article continues below
The CP-A300NJ and CP-AW250NJ are based on the first generation Super-Short Focus projector from Hitachi – the CP-A100J. The new models are lighter, (3.8KG) and have a smaller body, and are able to project an 80″ image while being a mere 23cm away from the screen (the previous models could do 80″ from 63cm away). The CP-A300NJ is capable of displaying XGA resolution with 3000 Lumens brightness, and the AW250NJ is capable of WXGA resolution at 2500 Lumens brightness.
The advantages of such projectors is that you don't need a large space or long table in order to utilize it, and when it's not so far away, there's less chance of interference in between the projector and the screen, This offers an uninterrupted presentation especially in cases when somebody has to leave a meeting, they won't be walking past the projector and distracting everyone else. Its small, portable form factor also means that it won't be hassle to bring about either.
No word on pricing or when these projectors will be available, but stay tuned.

Raphanus R. sativus
Long tapered deep red roots that are 6-7" long.
Long Scarlet has crisp, tender white flesh, medium tops, for bunching.
Very heavy yielding variety.
Excellent for home garden or market.
1935 Isabell's Seed Catalog says about Cincinnati Market Radish...
"The finest long red radish. This superior forcing radish was bred up by the Glass Gardeners near Cincinnati and no finer radishes go into any market. The tops are so small that the radishes may stand touching one another in the rows. Grows perfectly straight and smooth, 6 to 7 inches in length. Skin scarlet colored, very thin, the flesh crisp, brittle and of a delightful flavor. Ready for market in 35 days"

Planting Tips for Heirloom Radishes:
Radishes are a cool season crop and are quick to mature. These heirloom seeds can be planted in spring or fall. Due to the small size of these seeds and vegetables, most people will use a furrow technique when planting. Sow in shallow furrow and cover with ¼" of sifted compost or light sand. Later after the first few true leaves appear, it is best to then thin to final spacing. Remember larger spacing will result in larger heirloom radishes but will take longer to mature.
Be sure to seed every few weeks if you desire a steady crop of heirloom radishes out of your garden. Nothing can be easier to grow. Consistent watering will tend to elimnate woody roots and a better tasting radish.
Seeding Care for Heirloom Radishes:
Heirloom seeds are hardy but always take care with your garden seeds to give them the appropriate amount of moisture - not letting the vegetable seeds dry out prematurely or overwatering and possibly having them rot.
Radish and Cucumber Salad
Combines two crunchy vegetables in a herb-scented, sweet and sour dressing.
3/4 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup sugar
3 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsely
3/4 teaspoon mustard seed
1/4 teaspoon each salt and peper
3 large cucumbers, rinds scored and very thinly sliced
1 cup thinly sliced radishes
Combine vinegar, sugar, salt, dill, parsley, mustard seed, salt and pepper; stir to dissolve sugar. Add Cucumbers and let marinate in refrigerator for several hours. To serve: add the radishes and mix thoroughly.
Serves 6
This recipe is from "Recipes from a Kitchen Garden" by Renee Shepherd and Fran Raboff

Cannoli Like No Other
Last week, as I was making plans for a short visit to Philly, I put a posting on my Facebook page asking friends to recommend things to do, places to see and, of course, where to eat while there. The response was unanimous that the one thing I absolutely had to do was to go to Isgro, an old school Italian pastry shop, and eat cannoli. Cannoli is one of those things that seems to have a much greater following on the East coast than on the West and to be honest, I've never really had a passion for super-sweet, Italian pastries, but when in Rome…
After a particularly sweltering morning spent wandering around the famous Italian marketplace on Philly's south side, sampling various delights such as wild boar prosciutto, pork and provolone sandwiches with sweet peppers and broccoli rabe and eggplant parmesan hoagies, we decided that it was time to venture over to Isgro and get down to some serious business.
From a block away we couldn't help but spot the sign brightly boasting the colors of the Italian flag and as we approached the storefront, it was clear that we were about to take more than a few steps back in time. The bakery displays were packed with cakes, cookies and pastries, each tempting us with their less than natural colors and sugary surfaces, but we had come for one thing and one thing only, a traditional cannoli filled with chocolate chip-studded ricotta cream, made the same way it has been made for the past 100 years. After many minutes of being bounced around the shop like pinballs amongst the hoards of sugar craving customers, it was our turn to order. Our server was a no-nonsense, older woman sporting a white Isgro t-shirt and a bee-hive hairdo and it was clear that she had been doing this for a very long time. She greeted us with a bit of a Philly edge (not too warmly, but not too cold either) and made it clear that she had no time for small talk. So we quickly placed our order, paid and slipped out the door into the heavy June heat to find a stoop to sit on.
I have to admit, with the first bite my opinion of cannoli had forever changed. The shell, light brown and blistered, crackled and burst as I bit into it. The cream, still holding a chill from the refrigerator, was cool and just sweet enough to complement, but not entirely take away the tartness of the ricotta and the chocolate chips provided a perfect balance, in both flavor and texture, to the cream and the shell.
It didn't take long to suck down that cannoli, but it did take some will power not to walk back in and buy another. Eventually, however, we managed to lure ourselves away and continue our tour of the Italian market. Having returned from my trip a few days ago, I am kicking myself for not venturing back to Isgro to buy a cannoli for the road, but something tells me that the next time I go to Philly, Isgro will still be there, just the way it is today, and the way it's been for 100 years.

The Great Big Idaho Potato Truck stops in Henrico
The Great Big Idaho Potato Truck is on a seven-month cross-country journey to celebrate the Idaho Potato Commission's 75th Anniversary and to raise funds and awareness for Meals on Wheels and will stop in Henrico Friday, June 15. A 48-foot long flatbed trailer featuring a 28-foot long, 12-foot wide and 11.5-foot tall Idaho potato will be at BJ's Wholesale Club, 1320 Starling Dr., from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.
The Great Big Idaho Potato Truck took an entire year to design and build. Weighing in at six tons (the equivalent of 32,346 medium Idaho potatoes), the truck officially set off on its journey following a ribbon-cutting ceremony with Idaho Governor C. L. "Butch" Otter in front of the Idaho Capitol Building. The truck is traversing the country to help raise funds and awareness for Meals On Wheels Association of America (MOWAA), the oldest and largest national organization dedicated to helping end senior hunger.
After the tour, the truck will be back in Idaho to celebrate the 2012 harvest at Shelley Spud Days, as well as participate in other events around the state.
For more information about the truck, the IPC's partnership with MOWAA, visit http://www.bigidahopotato.com The .site is updated regularly with tales and photos from the road.

Researchers discover a 'continuity field' that merges the appearance of similar objects seen within a matter of seconds
Ever notice how Harry Potter's T-shirt abruptly changes from a crewneck to a henley shirt in "The Order of the Phoenix," or how in "Pretty Woman," Julia Roberts' croissant inexplicably morphs into a pancake?
Don't worry if you missed those continuity bloopers. Vision scientists at the University of California, Berkeley, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have discovered an upside to the brain mechanism that can blind us to subtle changes in movies and in the real world.
They've discovered a "continuity field" in which the brain visually merges similar objects seen within a 15-second time frame, hence the previously mentioned jump from crewneck to henley goes largely unnoticed. Unlike in the movies, objects in the real world don't spontaneously change from, say, a croissant to a pancake in a matter of seconds, so the continuity field stabilizes what we see over time.
"The continuity field smoothes what would otherwise be a jittery perception of object features over time," said David Whitney, associate professor of psychology at UC Berkeley and senior author of the study, to be published online Sunday, March 30, in the journal Nature Neuroscience.
"Essentially, it pulls together physically but not radically different objects to appear more similar to each other," Whitney added. "This is surprising because it means the visual system sacrifices accuracy for the sake of the continuous, stable perception of objects."
Conversely, without a continuity field, we may be hypersensitive to every visual fluctuation triggered by shadows, movement and myriad other factors. For example, faces and objects would appear to morph from moment to moment in an effect similar to being on hallucinogenic drugs, researchers said.
"The brain has learned that the real world usually doesn't change suddenly, and it applies that knowledge to make our visual experience more consistent from one moment to the next," said Jason Fischer, a postdoctoral fellow at MIT and lead author of the study, which he conducted while he was a Ph.D. student in Whitney's lab at UC Berkeley.
To establish the existence of a continuity field, the researchers had study participants view a series of bars, or gratings, on a computer screen. The gratings appeared at random angles once every five seconds.
Participants were instructed to adjust the angle of a white bar so that it matched the angle of each grating they just viewed. They repeated this task with hundreds of gratings positioned at different angles. The researchers found that instead of precisely matching the orientation of the grating, participants averaged out the angle of the three most recently viewed gratings.
"Even though the sequence of images was random, participants' perception of any given image was biased strongly toward the past several images that came before it," said Fischer, who called this phenomenon "perceptual serial dependence."
In another experiment, researchers set the gratings far apart on the computer screen, and found that the participants did not merge together the angles when the objects were far apart. This suggests that the objects must be close together for the continuity effect to work.
For a comedic example of how we might see things if there were no continuity field, watch the commercial for MIO squirt juice at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tXG0PACMUOo

If the wireless internet connection during your holiday flight seems more reliable than it used to, you could have the humble potato to thank.
While major US airlines offer Wi-Fi on many flights, the signal strength can be spotty.
Airlines and aircraft makers have been striving to improve this with the growing use of wireless devices and the number of people who don't want to be disconnected, even 10,700 metres up.
Engineers at Chicago-based Boeing Company used sacks of potatoes as stand-ins for passengers as they worked to eliminate weak spots in in-flight wireless signals. They needed full planes to get accurate results during signal testing, but they couldn't ask people to sit motionless for days while data was gathered.
"That's where potatoes come into the picture," Boeing spokesman Adam Tischler said.
It turns out that potatoes - because of their water content and chemistry - absorb and reflect radio wave signals much the same way as the human body does, making them suitable substitutes for airline passengers.
"It's a testament to the ingenuity of these engineers. They didn't go in with potatoes as the plan," Tischler said.
Recapping the serendipitous path that led to better onboard wireless, Tischler said a member of the research team stumbled across an article in the Journal of Food Science describing research in which 15 vegetables and fruits were evaluated for their dielectric properties, or the way they transmit electric force without conduction.
Its conclusions led the Boeing researchers to wonder if potatoes might serve just as well as humans during their own signal testing. Despite some scepticism, they ended up buying 9000 kilograms of them.
Video and photos of the work, which started in 2006, show a decommissioned airplane loaded with row upon row of potato sacks that look like large, lumpy passengers. The sacks sit eerily still in the seats as the engineers collect data on the strength of wireless signals in various spots.
The Boeing engineers added some complicated statistical analysis and the result was a proprietary system for fine tuning Internet signals so they would be strong and reliable wherever a laptop was used on a plane.
Boeing says the system also ensures Wi-Fi signals won't interfere with the plane's sensitive navigation and communications equipment.
"From a safety standpoint, you want to know what the peak signals are, what's the strongest signal one of our communications and navigation systems might see from a laptop or 150 laptops or 350 laptops," Boeing engineer Dennis Lewis explains in a video.
In a nod to the humour in using a tuber to solve a high-tech problem, researchers dubbed the project Synthetic Personnel Using Dialectic Substitution, or SPUDS.
The company says better Wi-Fi signals can be found already on three Boeing aircraft models flown by major airlines: 777, 747-8 and the 787 Dreamliner.

This paper presents a technique for computing the geometry of objects with general reflectance properties from images. For surfaces with varying material properties, a full segmentation into different material types is also computed. It is assumed that the camera viewpoint is fixed, but the illumination varies over the input sequence. It is also assumed that one or more example objects with similar materials and known geometry are imaged under the same illumination conditions. Unlike most previous work in shape reconstruction, this technique can handle objects with arbitrary and spatially-varying BRDFs. Furthermore, the approach works for arbitrary distant and unknown lighting environments. Finally, almost no calibration is needed, making the approach exceptionally simple to apply.

@Lance - thanks, and I would jump at the chance to get paid to do this full-time! Haven't gotten in any shows yet; maybe this will be the year.
@Yellow1: The photo was taken on a weekday morning, when I think the parkway is one way - I agree the car seems to be going in the wrong direction, but don't recall.
@ Yellow1, Michael -- Must be. You can see the "do not enter" sawhorse on the northbound P street onramp.
The one way peak direction is kind of peculiar. Do other major cities have this? Seems that it can be confusing and dangerous to out of towners.

Enhanced Formation of a Confined Nano-Water Meniscus Using a 780 nm Laser with a Quartz Tuning Fork-Atomic Force Microscope
Abstract:Demonstrated herein is the optical-field-induced enhancement of the formation of a confined nanowater meniscus using a distance-regulated quartz tuning fork-atomic force microscope (QTF-AFM) with a 780 nm laser. While a pulled optical fiber tip approaches the surface, the laser is suddenly turned on and focuses on the front spot of the tip by the shape of the pulled optical fiber, which plays the role of an objective lens and induces the gathering effect of the water molecules directed to the electromagnetic-field gradient in air. This phenomenon facilitates a new boundary condition to form a long-range confined nano-scale liquid bridge between the tip and the surface. After the pulling of the optical fiber, 20-nm-thick gold was sputtered on the apex (diameter: ∼100 nm) of the tip to guide and focus the beam on the spot. The critical power of the laser to overcome the barrier for the formation of a new boundary is 100 μW at the distance of 22 nm from the substrate.

Feral Interactive today announced that the highly anticipated turn-based strategy game XCOM® 2 is out now for Mac and Linux and is available to buy via Steam. XCOM 2 will be released on the Mac App Store shortly. Developed by Firaxis Games and published by 2K for Windows PC, XCOM 2 is the sequel to the hugely popular XCOM: Enemy Unknown.
XCOM 2 takes place 20 years after the events of XCOM: Enemy Unknown. Humanity lost the war against the extra-terrestrial forces and the aliens have established a new world order, promising a brilliant future for all.
However, beneath the surface lies a sinister agenda to eliminate all who dissent from their rule. The paramilitary organization known as XCOM is scattered and largely forgotten, and must strike back to reclaim control of Earth and free humanity from alien rule. In XCOM 2, players must recruit, train and equip a team of resistance soldiers, then engage the alien forces in epic turn-based battles. Not only will XCOM fight against the alien army, but will also face ADVENT, a group of soldiers who make up the aliens' own personal police force.
XCOM 2 introduces features such as procedurally-generated levels, so no two missions are ever the same; a standalone Psionic soldier class along with new Psionic abilities; and terrifying new alien enemies.
XCOM 2 is available as a standalone base game and as the XCOM 2 Digital Deluxe Edition. The XCOM 2 Digital Deluxe Edition comprises the base game, the Reinforcement Pack and the XCOM 2 digital soundtrack.
The Reinforcement Pack consists of three content packs, which will be released individually through Spring-Summer 2016: Anarchy's Children, Alien Hunters, and Shen's Last Gift. The Reinforcement Pack is also available to buy separately.
The Reinforcement Pack will be released as one pack for the Mac App Store version in Summer 2016.
"We are delighted to be launching XCOM 2 for Mac and Linux day-and-date with the Windows release," said David Stephen, Managing Director of Feral Interactive. "We're looking forward to Mac and Linux gamers making a powerful contribution to the remnant XCOM forces."
XCOM 2 is available through Steam, the Feral Store and other online stores for $59.99/£34.99/€49,99. XCOM 2 will retail for US $49.99/£39.99/€49.99 on the Mac App Store. XCOM 2 Digital Deluxe Edition is available only via Steam and retails for $74.99/£47.99/€64,99.
The Reinforcement Pack is available from Steam and third-party stores and retails for $19.99/£15.99/€19,99. Pricing for the Mac App Store Reinforcement Pack will be announced at a later date.
