Nima Rinji Sherpa’s ears are still tinged black from wind chill, an occupational hazard of climbing to heights where humans struggle to breathe, and where the weather can turn deadly in an instant.
This month, Nima became the youngest person to summit all 14 of the world’s highest peaks, but the 18-year-old Nepalese mountaineer is already getting ready for his next big feat.

Speaking to CNN via video call from the Nepali capital Kathmandu last week, Nima said he’s taking a couple weeks’ rest before preparing to climb the world’s eighth-highest mountain, Manaslu, with Italian mountaineer Simone Moro – in winter, alpine-style.
“That means we’re climbing an 8,000-meter mountain in winter… There’s no fixed ropes for us, there’s no (supplemental) oxygen for us, there is no support for us. So, it’s like pure human endurance,” Nima said. “It has never been done in the history of mountaineering.”
After that, “I’ll take some rest,” Nima laughed.
On October 9, Nima reached the top of the 8,027-meter (26,335-foot) Shishapangma along with his partner Pasang Nurbu Sherpa. For Nima, it was the final of the “eight-thousanders,” the 14 peaks recognized by the International Climbing and Mountaineering Federation as standing more than 8,000 meters above sea level.
Describing the moment of summiting the final peak as “pure joy,” Nima said his motivation comes from his family, many of whom are renowned mountaineers.
His father, Tashi Lakpa Sherpa, has climbed Everest nine times, and at age 19 became the youngest person to summit without bottled oxygen. His uncle Mingma Sherpa became the first South Asian climber to summit the 14 peaks in 2011.
“My uncles and my father, they are way more successful than I would ever be because they came from a very small village. To even dream about being this successful, for them it was really hard,” Nima said. “I have the privilege that they didn’t have.”

The Iowa Democratic Party announced it s joining the digital age, adding six virtual caucuses in addition to the in-person caucuses on Feb. 3, 2020. One of the biggest complaints about the Iowa caucuses, the nominating contest that kicks off the presidential primary season, has been about acces stanley deutschland sibility.Caucusing takes a long time, especially for Democrats. It takes place in the evening, with no set duration, making it difficult for parents with young children or voters who work at night to participate.On Monday, the Democratic Party unveiled its plan Monday to try and improve the caucuses. Today, we are setting the stage for the 2020 Iowa caucuses to be the most accessible, transparent, and successful caucuses in our party s history, said Iowa Democratic Party Chair Troy Price in a statement. There will be a 30-day public comment period for Iowans to respond to the new virtual caucuses.On caucus night in Iowa, voters show up to their precincts and divide into groups based on the candidate they prefer. Candidates must have the support of at least 15 percent of the voters present to be viable. Those supporting candidates under the 15-percent threshold must either win over other caucus goers or disband and choose a viable candidate to support. Based on the final results of the preference vote, each viable candidate receives a proportional number of Iowa s delegates.

We ve been seeing a lot more movement in the polls in the Republican race for president than in the Democratic. Stark evidence for that proposition comes from the Rasmussen Report s weekly updates. stanley quencher On Monday came Rasmussen s numbers in the Democratic race: Clinton 37 percent, Obama 25, Edwards 11. That s Edwards s lowest number since the poll reported February 19, but all three candidates have been running within a narrow range starting February 26: Clinton between 32 and 38, Obama between 25 and 33, Edwards between 11 and 18. Rasmussen showed Obama tied with Clinton on April 23 and 2 points ahead on April 30. The latest numbers show Clinton near the top of her February-June range and Obama and Edwards at the bottom of theirs.We see much more instability in the Republican race. The numbers Rasmussen released Tuesday are a shocker: Giuliani 24 percent, Thompson 24, McCain 11, Romney 11. Thompson is running significantly ahead of where he has been in Rasmussen s sur stanley becher veys since his name was first included in the results reported April 3 . Giuliani is running significantly below the 33-37 percent level he had during most of February and March.
