		The central eastern Ethiopian Plateau is a volcanic surface that is being eroded into by streams that flow west, feeding into the Blue Nile.
		The central eastern Ethiopian Plateau surface is composed of remnant volcanics that are Oligocene-Miocene flood basalts (WoldeGabriel et al., 1990).
		The central eastern region of the Ethiopian Plateau, which sits to the west of the Ethiopian rift zone, has a surface that is constrained by volcanism and tectonics, which should allow us to infer initiation of erosion in a stream area.

	Ethiopian Orthodox Church
		Ethiopian Orthodox church is the oldest of all Eastern Christianities (although Armenians would argue it).
		Sometimes Ethiopian Orthodox Tawahedo Church is called Copic, which is due to the fact that till the early fifties the head of Ethiopian church was selected in Alexandria, Egypt and this tradition was changed under Haile Sellassie.
		A too common accusation against the Ethiopian Church focuses on its lack of missionary zeal, or on the ignorance and worldliness of its priesthood.

	The Controversy over the Ethiopian Calendar: the Ritual of Sighting The Moon of Ramadan: an Islamic Perspective
		The Middle Eastern countries are good case studies to exemplify the present controversy about the Ethiopian calendar.
		The lessons learned from this is that the policy and opinionmakers succeeded in synchronizing the farmer’s and religious calendars that follow traditional lunar stations with the Gregorian or Julian Calendars which are European innovation.
		It seem that the Middle Eastern societies managed to synchronize their calendars by accepting the inevitable duality of the system without violation of their cultures or natural laws.

	Violence in Ethiopia's East Draws Attention to Somalis' Plight
