The Blue Nile closed in 2007. It was located at 2525 Telegraph Avenue.I know that almost everyone who likes Ethiopian food loved this place and misses this Berkeley restaurant dearly. I guess it's personal preference, but I never felt that the food was as delicious as the food further down Telegraph (away from the campus) at Ethiopia Restaurant (that's the official name).So if you haven't tried it yet, and you're looking for a "new" Ethiopian restaurant, check out Ethiopia Restaurant.

Ethiopian Airlines scooped the 2008 Best Airline in Africa Award at the African Travel Award gala night held in Lagos, Nigeria.

Over 100,000 Ethiopian Jews have been flown to the “Promised Land” over the past twenty years, but at least 15,000 remain stuck and unable to join relatives who left Ethiopia during this time period.

At university, I was fortunate enough to have a lecturer who spent nine months a year doing fieldwork in Ethiopia.

I believe that Ethiopian cuisine makes a credible claim to be considered an equal among the world's many diverse and celebrated culinary traditions. Yet many people have never experienced the succulent rich blend of flavors that characterizes Ethiopian cuisine. Even better, Ethiopian cuisine, when prepared at home with methods that conserve on oil, offers a flavorful and interesting set of tastes

Here we are again. Right back at it. Headlines all over are repetitively reading: Famine in Ethiopia. Damn it.

Marketing Week (Apr 24 2008) - The Ethiopian Government has appointed design consultancy Brandhouse to create branding for the country's speciality coffees. Brandhouse will design an umbrella brand for Ethiopian Fine Coffees and logos for the Yirgacheffe, Sidamo and Harrar varieties. This is intended to protect and promote the recently trade-marked coffee brands and raise the prices received by Ethiopian growers for their beans.The trademark application in the US was opposed by Starbucks, which sells Sidamo coffee in its cafés, but the chain relented after lobbying by Oxfam in support of the Ethiopian move.The branding will be used wherever the varieties are sold, including blends which contain them.Brandhouse account director Lisa McWilliam says: "It will be used as a premium seal for Et

By Tsegaye Tadesse ADDIS ABABA, Reuters (Apr 24 2008) - Ethiopia rejected on Thursday accusations by Amnesty International that its soldiers killed 21 people at a Somali mosque as "lies" and "propaganda".The rights group said on Wednesday the soldiers, stationed in Somalia to bolster the interim government, had also captured dozens of children in a raid on the Al Hidaaya mosque earlier this week during operations against Islamist insurgents.It said an imam and several Islamic scholars were among the dead, and that seven victims had their throats slit."Amnesty's allegations are unsubstantiated lies and propaganda that they received from Islamic groups in Somalia. Ethiopia has never been involved in such incidents," said Information Ministry spokesman Zemedkun Tekle."Ethiopia would have been

By Aislinn Simpson Telegraph (Apr 24 2008) - An Ethiopian man who has 77 children by 11 wives has urged others not to get married and has taken to dispensing advice on family planning to his neighbours.Ayattu Nure, 56, says he used to be a wealthy man and married out of a desire to share his money around but claims he is now peniless because of the competing demands of his brood."I want my children to be farmers but I have no land, I want them to go to school but I have no money," he says.Seven of Mr Ayattu's wives live in run-down huts around the compound while the other four live on the other side of the valley in Giwe Abossa village, 300 kilometres from the capital Addis Ababa.In total, they have given birth to more than 100 children but 23 have died.Mr Ayattu says he tries to share his

BBC News (Apr 23 2008) - Amnesty International has accused Ethiopian troops of capturing 40 Somali children during a raid on a mosque last week, and called for their release.The rights group condemned the killing of more than 20 people, including some religious scholars, during the raid.It quoted witnesses as saying that many of the dead were unarmed civilians, and that some had had their throats cut.Ethiopia denied its troops were involved in the killings, which came during fierce clashes with insurgents."The safety and welfare of the children must be paramount for all parties," said Amnesty's UK Director Kate Allen."The UN Security Council must endeavour to investigate human rights violations committed during the armed conflict."Throats cut Somalia's Prime Minister Nur Hassan Hussein sai

AP, ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia (April 16 2008): Another opposition party announced Wednesday it will boycott Ethiopia's second round of local elections because of rigging and intimidation, further damaging the democratic credentials of the key U.S. ally.Bulcha Demeksa, head of the Oromo Federalist Democratic Movement, said observers were banned from polling stations, voters threatened by ruling party officials and canvas ballot bags stuffed with ballots during the first round of elections April 13.Those problems led the party, which claims to represent Ethiopia's largest ethnic group, to withdraw from the second round of elections April 20.Merga Bekana, chairman of the national election board, dismissed the allegations of rigging and said he was unaware of the boycott until journalists informed

Kaliti Blog (April 14) - I have been observing the increasing sexual exploitation of refugees in Kampala. The concerns are increasingly worrying. Rumors are no longer rumors as these issues are openly discussed among young female asylum seekers who are regularly being pressurized to do sexual favors and/or to pay bribe by refugee workers employed by intergovernmental agencies in Kampala.I, myself, have experienced the pressure and I am outraged by the behavior of some male officers who directly and indirectly ask for sexual favor in order to speed up my asylum case.I have also been in contact with several other young females especially from Ethiopia and Eritrea who have categorically been under similar pressure by these Ugandan officers who deal with asylum cases. However, many of these yo

ADDIS ABABA (Reuters, April 5) - An Ethiopian Court has sentenced to death five top military officers of former Marxist ruler Mengistu Haile Mariam, for air raids that killed hundreds in an open market in 1980. The state-run Ethiopian News Agency on Saturday said the five officers were sentenced for the raid at Hawzen, along with five others given life sentences and four given terms of 19 years. All were tried and sentenced in absentia.Ethiopian Air Force officers were accused of bombing Hawzen in the northern Tigray region, killing hundreds of civilians on a market day on June 23, 1980, prosecutors said.Ethiopia has been trying former official of Mengistu's regime for the past 14 years for horrific killings carried out under his rule.Most are in exile after rebels including the current pr

Ethiopian Airlines will operate a thrice-weekly Boeing 767 service on this route.The codeshare agreement and the cooperation between Lufthansa and Ethiopian Airlines have estab

The Daily Monitor (Addis Ababa, by Abera W.kidan) - Government business enterprises have played and are still playing un-desired role fueling the current inflation witnessed recently in consumer food prices in Addis Ababa, an informed source told The Daily Monitor. Blaming "greedy traders and speculators" apart from other factors in the international market, the government recently announced the lift on Value Added Tax (VAT) and Turn Over Tax (TOT) on imported food items as part of efforts to subsidize key commodity items aimed at countering high food prices.The source said despite the role they should have played in regulating the market to salvage consumers aginst " greedy "traders, as government bodies, these public enterprises failed to live up to their expectations.In justifying his a

ADDIS ABABA (Sudan Tribune, March 16, 2008) — A senior Ethiopian official lashed out at the Eritrean government and accused it of trying to drown the entire Horn of Africa into instability.The Ethiopian Foreign minister Seyoum Mesfin told the national TV that Asmara is "is involved in counterfeit money, money laundering, arms trafficking in the African region".However Mesfin did not elaborate on his allegations or provide any specifics.The statements by the Ethiopian official highlight the growing tension between the two neighbors who fought a bitter war that ended officially in 2000.The United Nations Security Council met to discuss the future of the UN force stationed in the disputed border zone.Mesfin also said that the Eritrean government "is working hand-and-glove with terrorists,

One day a Ethiopian died and went to heaven. When he got to the pearly gates he stopped and asked St. Peter..." St. Peter, all my life I've wanted to know one thing and nobody has been able to give me the answer. " Saint Peter said, "Well, ask me. I'll probably be able to help you."The Ethiopian said, "O.K. Am I white with Black stripes...or Black with white stripes?"St. Peter scratched his head and answered......"Gee, I really don't know the answer to that one. Why don't you come on in and ask Jesus. He's just standing right over there. He'll know the answer."So, the Ethiopian trotted over to Jesus and said, "Jesus, there's something that I've always wanted to know and now that I'm dead and in heaven, maybe you can answer my question.""I'll sure try," said Jesus. So the Ethiopian asked him the same question that he had asked St. Peter. "Am I white with Black stripes...or am I Black with white stripes?" Jesus stared at the ground for awhile, shrugged his shoulders and said, "

About a month ago, we did a post questioning whether we were about to witness the end of the Ethiopian era of long distance running dominance. The jury is still out on that one, though a world record for Meseret Defar in Oslo in the 5000 m seems to suggest that even in Kenenisa Bekele is not going to continue his dominance, the women athletes will probably reign for a good few years yet.The next question is why are the Ethiopian athletes so successful? Usually, when one asks about African runners dominating in middle and long distance running, we think of the Kenyans, because there seem to be infinite numbers of them and they win just about every major marathon in the world. On the track though, it's a different story. Since 1993, Ethiopians have won all but one of the World and Olympic 10 000 m titles. The athletes in question are Haile Gebrselassie and the afore-mentioned Bekele, who now share 5 out of the last 6 world titles and all three of the Olympic titles (Trivial pursuit

Apologies for the delay between posts, it's been a crazily busy time for both of us. But we're back, and feature two interesting athletic/running related articles today, now that the IAAF season is well upon us. Also, with the Comrades Ultra-Marathon coming up shortly, check us out for some interesting pre-race science, predictions and the usual post-race fare.But we begin with one of the more intruiging news events of recent times - the "demise" of Kenenisa Bekele of Ethiopia. The Olympic and World 10 000 m champion, and 10 time world cross country champion is already among the greatest runners in history, all at the age of only 24.Yet the last few months have seen nothing but turmoil for the Ethiopian.

(Associated Press).- Ethiopian rebels who have fought alongside Islamic militants in neighboring Somalia stormed a Chinese-run oil field at dawn Tuesday, killing 74 people and destroying the exploration facility in a restive border region. It was the first such attack on a foreign company in this Horn of Africa nation, in contrast to Nigeria on the western side of the continent, where rebel groups frequently attack international oil concerns. Chinese officials said nine Chinese oil workers and 65 Ethiopians died and seven Chinese were taken away by the rebels. It wasn't known if the rebels suffered any casualties. The assault by more than 200 gunmen lasted nearly an hour, and followed a warning last year from the rebel Ogaden National Liberation Front against any investment in eastern Ethiopia's Ogaden area that could benefit the U.S.-allied government. Formed by Ethiopia's ethnic Somali minority, the Muslim group has been fighting for secession of the Britain-sized region with 4 mi

WASHINGTON, D.C. – On the one-year anniversary of Ethiopia’s general elections, Rep. Chris Smith – Chairman of the House Subcommittee on Africa, Global Human Rights and International Operations – said it is imperative that the Government of Ethiopia release all political prisoners and prisoners of conscience. Smith also noted the importance negotiating with the two main political party coalitions to end the stalemate on the limited rights of opposition members of Parliament and investigating killings of protestors by government forces. “Prime Minister Meles Zenawi played down the government shooting of protesters in June 2005 and despite having enough to arrest those responsible,” said Smith, who went to Ethiopia last summer. “Now, one year after the election that could have brought so much hope to Ethiopia, the shootings remain uninvestigated and political party leaders are still held without trial on spurious charges.” The May, 2005 elections were widely acknowled

On Thursday, fighting killed at least 10 people - but it was likely that many more had died. Hospitals were overwhelmed with the wounded and corpses were scattered in the streets.
