Stuart Symington has served as Ambassador to the Federal Republic of Nigeria since November 2016. At the time of his appointment, he was Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Central Africa and African Security Affairs. Previously, Ambassador Symington was United States Special Representative for the Central African Republic, Ambassador to Rwanda, Ambassador to Djibouti, and Deputy Chief of Mission and Charge’ d’affaires ad interim in Niger. In Nigeria, he leads the outstanding staff of the U.S. Embassy in Abuja and Consulate General in Lagos. Together they support the people of Nigeria and the region in their efforts to achieve broad-based prosperity and lasting security by defeating terrorist and criminal threats and ensuring inclusive democratic governance and justice. In addition to his posts in Africa, Symington served as the Foreign Policy Advisor to the Commander of United States Northern Command and North American Aerospace Command. There he worked with regional partners and other U.S. government departments and agencies to stop threats to our national and regional security. During his time in Rwanda, Symington’s Mission team increased regional security cooperation and economic integration, strengthened democratic institutions, and accelerated improvements in health care and agricultural production. In Djibouti, Symington focused his Embassy’s efforts on advancing regional economic integration, defusing humanitarian crises, and promoting democratic development and regional security. Symington began his diplomatic career in Honduras, tracking protests and domestic politics. He then moved to Spain and worked on economic issues before serving as the Ambassador’s aide during Desert Shield and Storm. In Mexico, he cultivated the political opposition, worked anti-drug issues, helped congressional visitors looking at NAFTA, and reported from Chiapas during the Zapatista revolt. At the State Department, he worked for the Under Secretary for Political Affairs on Latin American and African issues, and also backed up his aide for Bosnia during the Dayton peace process. During a year-long Pearson Fellowship, he served on the staff of Congressman Ike Skelton studying U.S. military joint operations and education. He later traveled to Sudan and North Korea on teams negotiating to free American captives before finishing the year as an aide to the U.S. permanent representative to the United Nations. As a political officer in Ecuador, Symington forged ties to the political opposition, indigenous leaders, military commanders, and other government and private sector leaders. He joined efforts to end the century-old Peru/Ecuador border conflict, helped negotiate the agreement establishing an anti-drug Forward Operating Location, and, after protests toppled Ecuador’s president, pressed for a return to civilian rule. As Deputy Chief of Mission in Niger, Symington dealt with military mutinies, terrorist threats, and civil unrest. He mounted an outreach effort to Muslim leaders, fostered anti- terrorism cooperation, and buttressed Niger’s democracy with a key food security program. He then returned to the State Department as the Deputy Director of West African Affairs in the Africa Bureau, working on the Trans-Sahara Counter Terrorism Initiative, humanitarian and development issues, and challenges to security and democratic stability. From October 2004 to February 2005, Symington worked with Ambassador Negroponte in Iraq on the election process and political issues, managing pre-election political reporting from around the country and visiting reporting officers in six of our ten regional offices during the run-up to the election. On Election Day, January 30, 2005, Symington was based in Baqubah and observed voting there and in other cities of Diyala province in the Sunni Triangle. Before becoming Ambassador to Djibouti in 2006, Symington worked at the National Defense University’s Joint Forces Staff College in Norfolk, studying and teaching how America’s diplomats and warriors can cooperate best to advance U.S. interests abroad. Ambassador Symington was raised in Missouri, earned a bachelor’s degree from Brown University, and a Juris Doctorate from Columbia University. He clerked for the Chief Judge of the Eastern District of Missouri, then litigated and practiced corporate law in New York, London, Paris, and St. Joseph, Missouri, before becoming a Foreign Service Officer in 1986. United States Department of State U.S.-ALGERIA RELATIONS The United States and Algeria established diplomatic relations in 1962 following Algeria’s independence from France. Algeria severed relations with the United States in 1967 in the wake of the Arab-Israeli War, but reestablished relations in 1974. Algeria is a strategically located and capable partner with which the United States has strong diplomatic, law enforcement, economic, and security cooperation. The United States and Algeria conduct frequent civilian and military exchanges. Most recently, Deputy Secretary of State John Sullivan visited Algiers in June 2018 and opened the fifth annual Algeria-U.S. Counterterrorism Dialogue with Foreign Minister Abdelkader Messahel. Algeria plays a constructive role in promoting regional stability, particularly in Libya and Mali. U.S. Assistance to Algeria U.S. engagement in Algeria has three primary objectives: expanding our security and military partnership, growing economic and commercial links, and building educational and cultural ties between Algerians and Americans. Exchanges of expertise play a valuable role in strengthening the U.S.-Algeria law enforcement and security partnership at both the senior and working levels. These relationships have never been stronger, in part as a result of a recently-concluded Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty. Programming from the State Department’s Bureau of Counterterrorism (CT) enables us to partner with Algerian law enforcement and security agencies to help interdict and investigate a wide variety of crimes and terrorist activities occurring in Algeria’s border region by focusing on three strategic areas of capability: forensics, criminal investigations, and border security. Our Middle East Partnership Initiative (MEPI) has supported the work of Algeria’s civil society through programming that provides training to journalists, business people, female entrepreneurs and parliamentarians, legal professionals, and the heads of leading non- governmental organizations. There are close to 5,000 alumni of U.S.

Keywords: 1DZ/Acinonyx jubatus/cheetah/Hoggar NP/National Park/North Africa/prey/Sahara/status/ territorial behaviour Abstract: According the studies conducted in the late' 80s, in 2000 and in 2003, the cheetah is largely widespread in the Hoggar Mountains (Algeria) and its surroundings. Their numbers have probably risen since 2000. The potential preys of the cheetah are abundant. However, the cheetah is often killed by the Tuaregs despite their protection status. Cheetahs are reported to move on constantly from one valley to another, but have a territorial behaviour. The absence of competitors allows cheetah to hunt its preys without facing their robbery. The situation may be good in the Tassili Mountains too. D'après les études menées à la fin des années 80, en 2000 et en 2003 le guépard est largement répandu dans les montagnes du Hoggar (Algérie) et ses environs. Leur nombre a probablement augmenté depuis 2000. Les proies potentielles du guépard sont abondantes. Cependant, malgré son statut d'espèce protégée, le guépard est souvent tué par les Touaregs. D'après les observations, les guépards se déplacent constamment d'une vallée à l'autre, mais gardent un comportement territorial. L'absence de compétiteurs permet au guépard de chasser ses proies sans avoir à faire face à leur vol. La situation doit également être bonne dans les montagnes du Tassili.

  • Les Dix Personnalités Politiques Qui Ont Marqué L'année 2018
    DIA http://dia-algerie.com Les dix personnalités politiques qui ont marqué l'année 2018 DIA-19 Décembre 2018: Dans le cadre de nos classements des personnalités algériennes, voici les 10 personnalités politiques qui ont marqué l'année 2018, avec l'entrée sur la scène de Mouad Bouchareb, le nouveau patron du FLN. 1- Ahmed Ouyahia, l’homme du président Alors que certains le donnaient comme mort politiquement et d’autres, démissionnaire, le Premier Ministre Ahmed Ouyahia est toujours resté l’homme du président de la République, Abdelaziz Bouteflika. Depuis sa nomination au poste de premier ministre, Ahmed Ouyahia a obtenu les pleins pouvoirs pour gérer le pays. Tout passe par lui pour une validation : de la politique économique du pays, à la Communication en passant par les dossiers stratégiques de l’industrie et de la politique sociale et internationale. Du temps où il occupait le poste de chef du Gouvernement durant l’ère de Bouteflika en 2003, Ouyahia n’avait pas autant de cartes blanches pour gérer le pays. Il n’avait que le volet économique et le suivi des dossiers du programme du président. Présenté comme l’homme « des missions délicates » Ouyahia assume bien son job et a récupéré du président Bouteflika tous les pouvoirs afin de tenter de redresser le pays. Vraisemblablement le Premier Ministre s’est doté du pouvoir de président pour assurer sa mission. Depuis son retour aux affaires politiques du pays, Ouyahia est plongé dans les dossiers urgents. Il n’est pas un quart de Premier Ministre mais un chef de l’Exécutif complet qui a pour mission de mener le pays sur la bonne route et l’éloigner le plus possible de la crise qui le menace.

  • Algeria (People's Democratic Republic Of) (Algérie)
    Algeria (People’s Democratic Republic of) (Algérie) Last updated: 30-01-2004 Location and area Algeria is a republic in western North Africa. It is bordered to the north by the Mediterranean Sea, to the east by Tunisia and Libya, to the south by Niger, Mali, and Mauritania, and to the west by Morocco. Its total area is 2,381,741 km2. (Microsoft Encarta Encyclopedia 2002). Topography From north to south, four main physical regions extend across the country: · The Tell along the Mediterranean coast consists of a narrow (80 to 190 km) coastal plain backed by the mountainous area of the Tell Atlas Mountains. The numerous valleys contain most of Algeria’s arable land, that is, however, poor in humus and has suffered from overcultivation · The High Plateau, a highland region of level terrain · The mountains and massifs of the Saharan Atlas · The Algerian Sahara, comprising more than 90 per cent of the country’s total area. Much of the terrain is covered by gravel, although the Great Eastern Erg and the Great Western Erg are vast regions of sand dunes. In the south are the Ahaggar Mountains, which culminate in Mount Tahat (3,003 m), the highest peak in Algeria. The country’s principal river, the Chelif (725 km), rises in the Tell Atlas and flows to the Mediterranean Sea. No permanent streams are found south of the Tell. Several basins in the High Plateau collect water during rainy periods, forming large, shallow lakes; as these dry they become salt flats, called chotts, or shotts. (Microsoft Encarta Encyclopedia 2002).

Décembre 2013 STUDY OF THE INTERANNUAL RAINFALL VARIABILITY IN NORTHERN ALGERIA ETUDE DE LA VARIABILITE INTER-ANNUELLE DES PLUIES DE L'ALGERIE SEPTENTRIONALE Mohamed MEDDI. École Nationale Supérieure d’Hydraulique, Blida, LGEE. [email protected] Samir TOUMI . École Nationale Supérieure d’Hydraulique, Blida, LGEE. ABSTRACT : The work presented here focuses on the inter-annual variability of annual rainfall in Northern Algeria. This work is carried out by using the coefficient of variation (the ratio between the standard deviation and the average). We will try to show areas of low, medium and high variations in Northern Algeria. In order to do this, we use 333 rainfall stations spread over the entire study area, with a measurement period of 37 years (1968/2004). The contrast of rainfall spatial and temporal distribution has been demonstrated by studying the sixteen basins, as adopted by the National Agency of Water Resources. The high spatial variability characterizes the basins of the High Plateaus of Constantine and Chot El Hodna. Keywords: Northern Algeria - annual Rainfall - inter-annual variability - coefficient of variation RESUME : Nous présentons dans cet article une étude de la variabilité interannuelle des pluies annuelles en Algérie septentrionale. Ce travail a été réalisé en utilisant le coefficient de variation (le rapport entre l'écart-type et la moyenne). Nous essayerons de montrer les zones à faible, moyenne et forte variations dans le Nord de l'Algérie. Pour se faire, nous avons utilisé 333 postes pluviométriques réparties sur l'ensemble de la zone d'étude avec une période de mesure de 37 ans (1968/2004).

Since 1997, all book proposals have been refereed by specialist reviewers as well as by the Society’s Books Editorial Committee. If the referees identify weaknesses in the proposal, these must be addressed before the proposal is accepted. Once the book is accepted, the Society Book Editors ensure that the volume editors follow strict guidelines on refereeing and quality control. We insist that individual papers can only be accepted after satisfactory review by two independent referees. The questions on the review forms are similar to those for Journal of the Geological Society. The referees’ forms and comments must be available to the Society’s Book Editors on request.

De nouvelles possibilités de communication, de prises de contacts et d’échanges s’offrent aux individus et aux minorités actives au-delà des frontières nationales. Les populations amazighes, tant sur leurs territoires d’origine que dans la diaspora, sont influencées par les effets de cette expansion et par les rapports entre localisation et globalisation que celle-ci a induits1. Cette déterritorialisation fait que, d’une part, on assiste ces dernières années à l’intensification des contacts entre les communautés amazighes du nord de l’Afrique et la diaspora et les « pays d’origine », ou encore parmi les immigrés eux- mêmes, renforçant ainsi des formes pré-existantes de transnationalisme2 ; d’autre part, sur les sites internet les spécificités nationales et locales sont mises en avant par la création et la diffusion de discours d’identification qui, dans le cas des Amazighs, mettent en exergue la variation linguistique locale et les informations d’une région ou d’un groupe diasporique déterminés.

  • The Constitution of Angola
    The Constitution of Angola LAW ON THE AMENDMENT OF THE CONSTITUTION The amendments to the Constitutional Law introduced in March 1991 through Law No. 12/91 were mainly aimed at creating the requisite constitutional framework for the establishment of multiparty democracy, broadening recognition and guarantees of the fundamental rights and freedoms of citizens, and constitutionally enshrining the basic principles of a market economy. Since it was only a partial revision of the Constitutional Law, as necessary as it was urgent, some constitutionally appropriate and important aspects related to the organization of a democratic State based on the rule of law were quite rightly left to be properly dealt with in the Constitutional Law, through a second constitutional revision. As a consequence of the constitutional enshrinement of the establishment of multiparty democracy and the signing, on 31 May 1991, of the Angola Peace Accords, for the first time in the country's history multiparty general elections based on direct and secret universal suffrage were held in September 1992 to chose the President of the Republic and Members of the future Parliament. Without detracting from the powers of the National Assembly to amend the current Constitutional Law and approve the Constitution of the Republic of Angola, it has become indispensable to proceed with the immediate amendment of the Constitutional Law, as planned, aimed essentially at clarification of the political system, the separation of the functions and the interdependence of sovereign bodies, and also at making the status and guarantees of the Constitution explicit, in accordance with the enshrined principles of building a democratic State based on the rule of law in Angola.
