RIO DE JANEIRO, April 9 (Xinhua) -- FIFA has announced details of the group seedings for the Rio 2016 Olympic football tournaments. The draw will take place on Thursday (14 April) at the Maracana Stadium, which will host the women's and men's finals on 19 and 20 August.
The men's tournament will feature 16 teams in four groups of four. For the draw, the teams have been divided into four pots based on a ranking according to previous Olympic performances, which has produced the unlikely sight of world champions Germany in the lowest-ranked pot. A German team has not competed at an Olympic football tournament since Seoul 1988, when West Germany took bronze.
Men's draw
Pot 1: Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, Japan
Pot 2: Nigeria, South Korea, Honduras, Iraq
Pot 3: Sweden, Fiji, Portugal, South Africa
Pot 4: Algeria, Colombia, Denmark, Germany
One team from each pot will be drawn into each group - A, B, C and D - although FIFA's general principle, for the men's and women's tournaments, is to ensure that no group has more than one team from the same continental confederation. The top-two placed teams in each of the men's groups will proceed to the quarter-finals.
The 12 women's teams will also be split into four pots, based on the world rankings released on 25 March. They will be drawn into three groups of four (E, F and G), with the top two from each of the women's groups, plus the two best third-placed teams, proceeding to the quarter-finals.
Women's draw
Pot 1: Brazil, USA, Germany
Pot 2: France, Australia, Sweden
Pot 3: Canada, China, New Zealand
Pot 4: Colombia, South Africa, Zimbabwe
The Olympic football tournaments will be staged in seven stadiums in six cities - the Olympic Stadium will join the Maracana in hosting matches in Rio de Janeiro, while the following stadiums will be used in the co-host cities: Amazonia Arena (Manaus), Corinthians Arena (Sao Paulo), Fonte Nova Arena (Salvador), Mane Garrincha Stadium (Brasilia) and Mineirao (Belo Horizonte).

NAIROBI Bismack Biyombo Jersey , Feb. 21 (Xinhua) -- The 2014 FIVB World Cup Africa qualifiers in Nairobi reach their business end on Saturday when hosts Kenya and Tunisia clash to decide which team will become the first to represent the continent in Italy.
Both teams are tied on 12 points after winning four of their Pool U fixtures thus far but Kenya is leading the round robin standings with a superior sets ratio of 1.66 against 1.47.
The two teams return to Nairobi's Safaricom Indoor Stadium venue exactly six months after they clashed in the African Cup of Nations last September where the host prevailed in straight sets to win their eighth continental title before home fans.
Kenya coach David Lung'aho is confident his flamboyant girls would do a repeat performance and defeat the ambitious North Africans again.
"We have played against Tunisia many times and they have never beaten me, I don't want this to be the first time," he told journalists during press conference after Kenya beat Seychelles 3-0 sets to record their fourth straight victory.
Lungaho who is one of the longest serving national teams' coaches in Africa has retained the same squad that defeated Tunisia in their last meeting.
They include captain Bracksides Khadambi, Mercy Moim, Jane Wacu, Everline Makuto, Elizabeth Nafula, Ruth Jepng' etich, Janet Wanja and Diana Khisa.
Center Joan Chelagat is the only new face in Lungaho team that is seeking its sixth appearance at the World Championships.
Lung'aho hopes that his powerful attacker Moim, who was named MVP during the last African Cup of Nations, would overcome the grief of losing her mother and help her nation qualify for the worlds.
"Moim wants to see Kenya qualify for the World Championships and she has assured that she would be with us on Saturday," he added.
Moim's mother passed away one day before Kenya met Seychelles in their fourth match of the tournament on Thursday but she braved the tragedy to play a starring role in their victory.
Unlike the Kenyan squad that remains unchanged, Tunisia coach Messelimani Mohammed has left out star players who were in Nairobi last August.
They include outside hitter Nihel Ghoul and setter Maroua Brahoum who starred for the team during the African Cup of Nations.
Mohamed said: "The match between Tunisia and Kenya will be very tough considering that a world ticket is on offer."
"The Kenyan team is strong but my players are ready to play their hearts out. The four wins they have recorded have improved their confidence although they played against modest opposition."
Mozambique will be seeking their first victory of the tournament when they take on Seychelles in the first match of the day at 12pm local time (+3GMT).
Uganda who have two victories, face Senegal in the second match of the final day that would be broadcast live on Zuku Sports Channel 300 HD.
The last match between Kenya and Tunisia will also be live on the television station.
Team with most wins qualifies for 2014 World Championships to be played in Italy from Sept. 23 to Oct. 12.
Angel investment-if we can demystify the terminology-merely refers to an investment from an individual, normally a stranger.
Angel investing is actually a hot subject on the net and is in some cases portrayed as a magic bullet for corporations that require income. Don’t be fooled. There’s nothing especially angelic regarding the relationship.
Basically, it entails acquiring and convincing a wealthy individual- someone willing to take a risk-to buy a chunk of one’s business (but not sufficient to take it away from you). An angel investor normally invests close to home, insists on direct involvement in the enterprise, and desires a high rate of return (20% to 50%).
