   <title>Ethiopia  exports coffee beans</title>
   <link>https://www.ephremtube.com/play/articles/ethiopia-exports-coffee-beans_20.html</link>
   <description><![CDATA[<p><span>In Addis Ababa&rsquo;s affluent Bole neighbourhood, the traditional smell of roasting coffee beans wafts through a thoroughly modern coffee shop. Garden of Coffee is agnostically decorated with large comfy couches and floor-to-ceiling windows that look out onto the street, giving it the atmosphere of a coffee shop that could be anywhere in the world. Making it distinctively local is the woman spreading beans over an open roaster, in the slow circular movements of Ethiopia&rsquo;s jebena buna coffee ceremony.</span></p>

   <description><![CDATA[<p>The mass media in&nbsp;Ethiopia&nbsp;consist of&nbsp;radio,&nbsp;television&nbsp;and the&nbsp;Internet, which remain under the control of the Ethiopian government, as well as private&nbsp;newspapers&nbsp;and&nbsp;magazines. In comparison to the length of Ethiopia's over-2,000-year history as a sovereign nation, the media is a very recent phenomenon.</p>

<p>This is the famous image of "Woubit Ethiopia" as she was dubbed. This image was taken sometime in the late seventies by Ethiopia's tourist commission board. Not much is known about the woman subject of the photo.</p>
<p>Her name is Woubit Amensisa. Hailing from Ethiopia's Wollega region, she later moved to Addis Ababa and was a student at Etege Menen School, before finishing her studies and getting a job with Ethiopia's tourism commission. She lived in Addis Ababa with her husband, who worked at Ethiopian Airlines, and her four children. A while ago we released this picture saying that her real name was Almaz Amensisa. We'd like to apologize for the error. The truth is, the beautiful woman in the picture is really named Woubit Amensisa, while Almaz Amensisa is her sister who worked for Ethiopian Television and now resides in the USA. Unlike what is widely believed, outside of her job at the national tourism commission, Woubit was neither a model nor an actress. Her colleagues at the national tourism office managed to convince her to take up a photo shoot opportunity at a time when the national tourism commission was collecting images to serve for promotional purposes. But her image became an international sensation. According to Cuban Ethiopian historian Eduardo Byrono, Woubit never asked for compensation for the photo and only wished that the income serve Ethiopia's tourism industry.</p>
<p>In 2007, Woubit came to the USA to get treatment for an undisclosed illness. Sadly, in November of 2008, Woubit Ethiopia's health had declined and she passed away in the USA.</p>
<p>Although every Ethiopian is familiar with the class, elegance and natural beauty she exhibits in this image, she didn't get the recognition she deserved in her lifetime.</p>

   <description><![CDATA[<h1>Ancient city uncovered in Ethiopia</h1>
<div>
<p>Farmers in the eastern Ethiopian city of Harlaa have long found strange objects on their land, including Chinese coins, prompting a local myth that the area was once home to giants.</p>
<p>A team of archaeologists has now uncovered what they believe was an ancient city and trading hub dating as far back as the 10th Century, with artefacts from Egypt, India and China.</p>
<p>Prof Timothy Insoll is one of the archaeologists who made the stunning discovery.</p>

   <title>Don&apos;t Buy Software: Do Everything for Free</title>
   <link>https://www.ephremtube.com/play/articles/read-dont-buy-software-do-everything-for-free_104.html</link>
   <description><![CDATA[<p>Buying software is a sucker bet.</p>
<p>It's the old adage: Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free? When it comes to software, there's almost always a free alternative to, er, whatever is the app equivalent of a cow.</p>
<p>Take image editing. If you want to fine-tune your photos, the go-to option has long been Photoshop -- or at the very least, Adobe Photoshop Elements. But those programs cost money, which is okay if you want bleeding-edge features and the benefits of technical support.</p>
<p>But Photoshop is also overkill for many of us, especially when there are so many free alternatives. Let's take a look at some of the no-price options for some common software needs.</p>
<h2 class="headline3 Heading2 head-alternate mg-4 block">Image editing</h2>
<p>As noted above, Photoshop is far from your only choice when it comes to image editing. If you're looking for that level of photo-manipulation power, with filters and special effects and the like, you have two pretty impressive options:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.gimp.org/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">GIMP</a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href="http://www.getpaint.net/index.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Paint.net</a>. The former comes closest to matching Photoshop's capabilities, while the latter feels closer to Microsoft's own Paint program -- on steroids and wearing a fancy new suit.</p>
<p>If you'd rather not monkey around with software at all, there are several good image-editing tools that reside right in your Web browser -- no installation required.&nbsp;<a href="https://pixlr.com/editor/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Autodesk Pixlr</a>, for example, lets you create images from scratch or upload them from your PC, then crop, rotate, smudge, and so on.&nbsp;<a href="http://www.picmonkey.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">PicMonkey</a>&nbsp;also supplies a broad range of editing tools, though the basic (read: free) version is somewhat limited. If you want advanced touch-tools, more fonts and effects, and other extras, there's a nominal monthly fee ($2.75).</p>
<p>&nbsp;<a style="line-height: 1.5em;" href="//www.ephremtube.com/Video/uploads/articles/969d7448.jpg" rel="prettyPhoto[phpmelody]"><img src="//www.ephremtube.com/Video/uploads/articles/969d7448.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="333" border="0" hspace="" vspace="" /></a></p>
<h2 class="headline3 Heading2 head-alternate mg-4 block">Video editing</h2>
<p>Free video editors aren't nearly as abundant as, say, free office suites. That's in part because video editing can be very complex, involving advanced features as well as compatibility with lots of file formats and standards. Many, if not most, of the freebie editors out there are just stripped-down versions of their commercial counterparts, and not very useful overall.</p>
<p>Microsoft's&nbsp;<a href="http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/get-movie-maker-download" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Windows Movie Maker</a>&nbsp;is free but limited, while Apple's&nbsp;<a href="http://www.apple.com/mac/imovie/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">iMovie</a>&nbsp;delivers a somewhat more robust set of tools to Mac users. But if the video you shot is located on your phone or tablet, why not edit it right there? Why go to all the hassle of transferring it to a desktop, especially if it's just going to end up back online (Facebook, YouTube, etc.) anyway?</p>

   <title>INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE 2017 DIVERSITY IMMIGRANT VISA PROGRAM (DV-2017)</title>
   <link>https://www.ephremtube.com/play/articles/read-instructions-for-the-2017-diversity-immigrant-visa-program-dv-2017_98.html</link>
   <description><![CDATA[<p>The congressionally mandated Diversity Immigrant Visa Program is administered annually by the Department of State. Section 203(c) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) provides for a class of immigrants known as &ldquo;diversity immigrants&rdquo; from countries with historically low rates of immigration to the United States. For Fiscal Year 2017, 50,000 Diversity Visas (DVs) will be available. There is no cost to register for the DV program.</p>
<p>Applicants who are selected in the program (&ldquo;selectees&rdquo;) must meet simple, but strict, eligibility requirements in order to qualify for a diversity visa. Selectees are chosen through a randomized computer drawing. Diversity visas are distributed among six geographic regions and no single country may receive more than seven percent of the available DVs in any one year.</p>
<p>For DV-2017, natives of the following countries are not eligible to apply, because more than 50,000 natives of these countries immigrated to the United States in the previous five years: Bangladesh, Brazil, Canada, China (mainland-born), Colombia, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Haiti, India, Jamaica, Mexico, Nigeria, Pakistan, Peru, Philippines, South Korea, United Kingdom (except Northern Ireland) and its dependent territories, and Vietnam. Persons born in Hong Kong SAR, Macau SAR, and Taiwan are eligible.</p>

   <title>I am Ethiopian, as truly and wonderfully as that is</title>
   <link>https://www.ephremtube.com/play/articles/read-i-am-ethiopian-as-truly-and-wonderfully-as-that-is_87.html</link>
   <description><![CDATA[<p><span>&ldquo;I am Ethiopian, as truly and wonderfully as that is, and no one has the right to define, reduce, or otherwise dismiss my identity&rdquo;;&nbsp;</span><br /><span>Dr. Eleni Zaude Gabre-Madhin Ze-Biher Bulga</span><br /><br /><span>Much has recently been made of my ethnic identity although this is a matter of no relevance whatsoever to a reasoned discourse on the existence of the Ethiopia Commodity Exchange. However, when the unnecessary gets in th</span><span class="text_exposed_show">e way of the important, however unpleasant it may be, it must be faced. I am Ethiopian, as truly and wonderfully as that is, and no one has the right to define, reduce, or otherwise dismiss my identity. I do not apologize for or defend who I am, as each one of us, whoever we are, has a God-given set of circumstances that uniquely defines us.<br /><br /><br /><br />My reality is that, born in Addis Ababa, I first left Ethiopia with my family at the age of four to live in New York city, accompanying my father, Zaude Gabre-Madhin, who was a senior United Nations official, prior to which he served in the Imperial government. Upon returning a few years later, my family then left Ethiopia again, escaping the chaos of the new Dergue regime, this time to Rwanda and later Togo, Malawi, and Kenya. I thus grew up in six different countries, going to school in French as well as English, and learning Swahili along the way. Throughout this time, my parents, to whom I owe everything, instilled in me and my sisters the deepest love and pride for our country Ethiopia. As I grew up in different cultures, grappling to understand my adolescent identity, I drew on the stories my parents told me of my heritage and of those who came before me. My mother, Bizuwork Bekele, who never missed a chance to boast about her beloved Harar, shared stories of my incredible great-grandmother, Imahoy Saba Yifat, from Menz and Gondar by origin, who lived in rural Hararghe as a widow after the Italian invasion and was one of the few women fighters of her time standing up to the invaders to defend the land and her six children. I heard about her son, my grandfather, Ato Bekele Haile, a respected magistrate serving as a judge in Harar town, himself of Gurage and Amhara ancestry, and of my mother&rsquo;s birth in the historical site today known as the House of Rimbaud. As a young child, I loved to sit for hours with my maternal grandmother, Imahoy Beletshachew Habte-Giorgis, a witty, intelligent,and extremely strong-willed woman who would often exclaim in Afan Oromo which she and her children, including my mother, spoke fluently, as she laughed recalling how she managed her coffee farms in the areas around Jijiga, Fedis, and Deder, where many of my relatives still live today.<br /><br /><br /><br />My father, for his part, mostly to amuse his daughters, named the water tank in our UN provided house in Kigali, Rwanda, &ldquo;Bulga Springs&rdquo; to recall his father&rsquo;s birthplace in northern Shewa. He would proudly speak of my grandfather, Fitawrari Gebremedhin, a noble and highly disciplined official in Emperor Menelik&rsquo;s time, who later settled in Wolaita Soddo in the late nineteenth century, marrying my grandmother, Woizero Ayalech Alaye, niece of the great Wolaita King Tona. At the age of seven, I remember visiting Soddo where my father was born and where many of my relatives still live, to spend time in his last years with my grandfather who was then nearly a century old. A tall, dignified, and handsome man, deeply religious, my grandfather showed me and my sister his coffee farm and I remember him speaking of my much loved late grandmother, and of his childhood and the family still in Bulga, and his laughing politely, not understanding, as I chattered to him in English with children&rsquo;s jokes I had learned in New York.<br /><br /><br /><br />Thus I grew, within and outside Ethiopia, celebrating all the different identities and cultures that are woven beautifully into the tapestry of my identity as an Ethiopian. To my parents, always , we were Ethiopian and that was something to be deeply proud of, recognizing and cherishing all of our different ethnic strands. I never knew until much later, nor did it matter, which particular ethnic group I should claim. In my extended family, my aunt married a man from Wollega and my uncle married a woman from Asmara, my great aunt married into the Abba Jifar clan in Jimma, and the list goes on. So the Ethiopia I knew growing up with my cousins was a kaleidoscope of identities bound together in one Ethiopia.<br /><br /><br /><br />This is my Ethiopian story, and it is unique to me, as each Ethiopian would similarly have. It is the story of my Ethiopia, the Ethiopia for which I have enduring love and to which I have returned after thirty years to contribute in the best way I know how. This is my Ethiopia to which I bring all the global experiences which have shaped me, as I have lived my adult years in Mali, Switzerland, and the United States, trained and worked in some of the best institutions, and traveled and explored dozens of countries around the world. This is my Ethiopia that represents all of my heritage, the strong and courageous women and men in my family through the ages whose blood flows in me. This is my Ethiopia for which I am willing to work, fight, and believe all things are possible. This is my Ethiopia to which I have brought my US-born sons, to instill in them the pride and love of all that we are as Ethiopians. I would like to teach them that in our increasingly inter-connected world, they are Ethiopians but also global citizens.<br /><br /><br /><br />Ethiopia is ours, to claim, to build and to restore. Rather than engage in destructive ethnic bigotry, far better to embrace all of what we are and to build together a better future for our children. My personal identity is irrelevant to my choice or ability to lead an initiative to bring a better marketing system for all Ethiopians, regardless of their ethnic roots or which corner of the country they claim. A market is above all a connection between humans, an exchange of goods and money that links two sides. The market is neutral as to who is on either side, it is the connection that counts. I have always<br /><br />found traders to be the most pragmatic people in the world. Let us too live by this market principle: we are far richer and far stronger if we build on our connectivity to each other in meaningful ways, and that much weaker if we seek isolation and succumb to narrow divisiveness. Let us be like the market. I believe it is our only hope<br /><br /><br /><br />By Eleni Zaude Gabre-Madhin, PhD</span></p>

   <title>How to Be a Good Wife</title>
   <link>https://www.ephremtube.com/play/articles/read-how-to-be-a-good-wife_82.html</link>
   <description><![CDATA[<p><span>Being a good wife is not easy, even if you have a near-perfect husband. To be a good wife, you have to be able to communicate effectively, to keep your romance alive, and to be your husband's best friend while maintaining your own identity. If you want to know how to do it, just follow these steps.</span><span style="line-height: 1.5em;">&nbsp;</span></p>
<p><span><strong class="whb">1,Express your feelings and needs effectively.</strong><span>&nbsp;Your husband doesn't have clairvoyant powers. If you want something, ask. If something is wrong, say so. Don't drop hints or figure he'll "come around" or you'll never get anything done. If you want to be able to express how you feel, you should be able to speak with a positive tone and to listen to what your husband says instead of being accusatory. Here are some ways to do it:</span></span></p>
<ul>
<li>Send "I messages." Instead of accusing him of not meeting your needs, focus the conversation on yourself. For instance, tell him, "I feel ignored when I don't see you until 6:30 every night."</li>
<li>Listen to what he says. When he tells you something, repeat what he said back to him so that he knows you understand. For example, "I hear you saying that you're worried about finances, and that's why you've been working late."</li>
<li>Avoid passing judgment. Let him finish what he's saying before you respond. After he's done talking, offer a solution. For instance, say, "I'm willing to live on a tighter budget if that means that I get to see you more often."<span style="line-height: 1.5em;">&nbsp;</span></li>
</ul>
<p><strong class="whb">2,<a title="Choose Your Battles in Marriage" href="http://www.wikihow.com/Choose-Your-Battles-in-Marriage">Pick your battles</a></strong><span>. Some issues are worth fighting about, and some aren't. If you spend all of your time nitpicking your husband about minor problems that don't really matter, then he's not going to listen to you when major issues come up.</span></p>
<ul>
<li>Criticism can destroy a&nbsp;<a title="Make Your Relationship Work" href="http://www.wikihow.com/Make-Your-Relationship-Work">relationship</a>. As long as the dishes are clean and unbroken, for instance, don't nag your husband about how to load the dishwasher "the right way." Let him do things his own way. Don't sweat the small stuff.</li>
<li>Avoid criticizing your husband without doing it constructively. Remember to try and be calm and rational, as strong emotions can easily turn a discussion into an argument. If you criticize every little thing he does, then he will quickly tune you out.</li>
<li>You should praise your husband for the things he does right much more than you argue with him about things that he does wrong. This will make him much more likely to listen to you, and much happier to be around you.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong class="whb">3,Be understanding when you discuss an issue with your husband.</strong><span>&nbsp;Fight right. Don't let anger take over because it may cause you to say things that you will regret later. Even when you don't agree with your husband, you need to respect his opinion and his viewpoint. To be a good wife, you need to understand that you may never agree on certain issues. No couple has an identical set of morals and beliefs, which means that both of you will need to learn to cope with occasions where you just can't resolve your opinions.</span></p>
<ul>
<li>Talk to him at the right time. Don't just spring your problems on him whenever. Avoid bringing up problems before dinner, while he's paying bills or when he's immersed in a stressful situation, like fixing a problem with your car. And never, ever start an argument in front of your children.<sup id="_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="http://www.wikihow.com/Be-a-Good-Wife#_note-1">[1]</a></sup></li>
<li>When you're wrong, admit it. You need to learn to respond to arguments and remain rational so you can recognize and apologize when you've made a misstep.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong class="whb">4,Talk to your husband, not about him.</strong><span>&nbsp;Never talk to your friends or your family and say negative things about your husband if you're not communicating with him first. Talking about your husband behind his back is disloyal. When you get married, your first loyalty is to your partner, not to your birth family or your social group.</span></p>
<ul>
<li>Complaining about your husband to your friends and family will not only not solve any of your problems, but it will also make them view your relationship in a more negative light.</li>
<li>Your friends and family may think they know what's best for you, but they don't know your relationship as well as you do and may unintentionally give you bad advice.</li>
</ul>

<p>ይህ የወሎ ላሊበላ የባህል ቡድን በአዲስ አወቃቀር ከተቋቋመ ዓመት አስቆጥሯል፡፡ የተመለመሉት ወጣቶች ለስድስት ወር ያህል በወሎ ዩኒቨርሲቲ፣ ኮምቦልቻ ካምፓስ ውስጥ ሥልጠና ከተሰጣቸው በኋላ መስከረም 14 ቀን 2006 ዓ.ም. ቡድኑ በይፋ ተመርቆ ወደ ሥራ ገብቷል፡፡ ቡድኑ ደሴ ውስጥ ከሚያደርገው እንቅስቃሴ በተጨማሪ በተለያዩ አገሮች እየተዘዋወረ ሙዚቃና ውዝዋዜ አጣምሮ ያቀርባል፡፡ ቡድኑ ባለፈው ጥር ወር በተካሄደው 4ኛው የባህል ፌስቲቫል ላይ ክልሉን ወክሎም ቀርቦ ነበር፡፡&nbsp;</p>

<p>&lsaquo;&lsaquo;ሙዚቃ በመዋዋስ የማውቀው ቡድን ዛሬ ጠቅልዬ ገብቻለሁ በምንም የምላቀቅ አይመስለኝም፤&rsaquo;&rsaquo; የምትለው ዓለም፣ በወሎ ላሊበላ የባህል ቡድን የቀድሞው ፍቅርና መተሳሰብን ዛሬ ማግኝቷ ዋጋ የማይከፈልበት መሆኑን ትናገራለች፡፡</p>
<p>ስለ ባህል ቡድኑ አስተያየታቸውን ከሰጡን ሌላው በኮካ ኮላ ሱፐር ስታርስ ውድድር ላይ ያለፈውን ዙር በአሸናፊነት ያጠናቀቀው ታደሰ መኰንን &nbsp;ነው፡፡ በደርግ ወቅት በነበረው ወታደራዊ ክፍል ሙዚቃዊ እንቅስቃሴውን አጠናቆ ወደ አዲስ አበባ፣ በመቀጠልም ወደ ደሴ ተመልሶ ኑሮውንና የሙዚቃ ሕይወቱን በትውልድ አገሩ አድርጓል፡፡</p>
<p>በቡድኑ በሙዚቀኝነት እንዲሁም በድምፅ በማሠልጠን የሚገኘው ታደሰ እሱ ብቻ ሳይሆን በርካቶች ቡድኑ ከፈረሰ በኋላ ያስቆጫቸው ነበርና የኢትዮጵያ ሙዚቃ ወደ ተሻለ ደረጃ የማድረስ አቅም የነበረው ባህላዊ ቡድን ለመመለስ ከሙያዊ አጋሮቹ ጋር ጥናት አካሂዷል፡፡</p>

<p>ከምሥራቅ አማራ የተወጣጡ ቢሆንም መላው ኢትዮጵያን የሚወክል ቡድን እንደሆነ የሚናገረው ታደሰ፣ ከሚኖሩበት ማኅበረሰብ አልፎ በመላው ዓለም የኢትዮጵያን ባህል አስተዋዋቂ እንደሚሆኑ ያለውን እምነት ይናገራል፡፡ በዕድሜ የገፉት ለተተኪ የሚሆን ዕውቀት እያስተላለፉ እንዲሁም ወጣት አባላቶች በጥቅም ሳይደለሉ በጥንካሬ የሚንቀሳቀሱበት እንጂ እንደቀድሞው በድንገት ያለምትክ የሚፈርስ እንደማይሆን ያለውን ተስፋም ይናገራል፡፡</p>
<p>የቡድኑን አባላት የመለመለው፣ የቡድኑ አሠልጣኝ እንዲሁም የቀድሞው ወሎ ላሊበላ ኪነት ቡድን አባል ዳምጤ እንደሚገልጸው ከደብረብርሃን እስከ ሰቆጣ ባለው አካባቢ የሚገኙ ወጣቶች የቀድሞን የኪነት ቡድን ታሳቢ በማድረግ ተሰባስበዋል፡፡</p>

   <title>Jay Z, Beyonce and Solange are ‘united’ after fight</title>

   <description><![CDATA[<p id="story_continues_1" class="introduction">Jay Z, his wife Beyonce and her sister Solange say they are a "united family" despite a fight seen in a leaked video.</p>
<p>The video, which was leaked to US celebrity website TMZ, showed Solange lashing out at Jay Z in a lift after the Met Gala on 5 May.</p>
<p>"Jay and Solange each assume their share of responsibility for what has occurred," said a joint statement.</p>
<p>"They both have apologized to each other and we have moved forward as a united family."</p>
<p>The hotel employee who leaked the footage has been identified and dismissed, it emerged on Thursday.</p>
<p>New York's Standard Hotel said it was "shocked and disappointed" by the leak and said it would it would hand over "all available information to criminal authorities".</p>
<p>The employee was dismissed for "breaching the security policies of the hotel and recording the confidential CCTV video," it added.</p>
<p>The three-minute video shows Solange - herself an R&amp;B singer - enter the lift with Jay Z, Beyonce and their entourage.</p>
<p>She then confronts the rapper, whose wife stands by without interfering.</p>
<p>A bodyguard holds Solange back, although she again tries to kick Jay Z. There is no audio on the recording.</p>
<p>The full statement was released by the family to the Associated Press.</p>
<p>It reads: "As a result of the public release of the elevator security footage from Monday, May 5th, there has been a great deal of speculation about what triggered the unfortunate incident.</p>
<p>"But the most important thing is that our family has worked through it. Jay and Solange each assume their share of responsibility for what has occurred.</p>
<p>"They both acknowledge their role in this private matter that has played out in the public. They both have apologized to each other and we have moved forward as a united family.</p>

<p>It is not clear what caused the blasts but Kenya has been hit by a spate of attacks in recent years.</p>
<p>They have mostly been blamed on the al-Shabab militant Islamist group from neighbouring Somalia.</p>
<p>Hundreds of British tourists have been evacuated from the coastal resort area of Mombasa amid warnings of an attack.</p>
<p>British tour companies have suspended flights to Mombasa, Kenya's second largest city.</p>

   <link>https://www.ephremtube.com/play/articles/read-nigeria-abducted-schoolgirls-president-to-visit-chibok_72.html</link>
   <description><![CDATA[<p id="story_continues_1" class="introduction">Nigeria's President Goodluck Jonathan will on Friday visit the north-eastern town where more than 200 schoolgirls were abducted, officials have said.</p>
<p>Nothing was seen of the girls for almost a month after they were taken from Chibok by Boko Haram militants.</p>
<p>But on Monday the group released a video showing more than 100 of them and offering an exchange for prisoners.</p>
<p>The president has come under pressure over his government's failure to rescue the girls, but has ruled out a swap.</p>
<p>The UK's Africa Minister Mark Simmonds said Mr Jonathan "made it very clear that there will be no negotiation", at a meeting on Wednesday.</p>
