Sequencing of 81 entire human mitochondrial DNAs (mtDNAs) belonging to haplogroups M1 and U6 reveals that these predominantly North African clades arose in southwestern Asia and moved together to Africa about 40,000 to 45,000 years ago. Their arrival temporally overlaps with the event(s) that led to the peopling of Europe by modern humans and was most likely the result of the same change in cli...

This paper briefly analyses the requirements for “share and reuse” of learning objects in Middle East and North Africa. We propose a framework that can be used to connect Learning Object Repositories of the Middle East and North Africa with networks of repositories worldwide; through the services of the ARIADNE Foundation (http://www.ariadne-eu.org/) and the GLOBE consortium (http://globe-info....

Prevalence of undernourishment as defined by FAO using dietary energy supply data, varies dramatically among these countries, with Tunisia in the lowest prevalence category (<2.5%), and Sierra Leone in the highest prevalence category (>...
