Nepal faces a daunting reconstruction effort after violent flash floods swept away bridges, roads and communications links across the Himalayas, putting Prime Minister Balen Shah's government through its first crisis. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/08/27/asia-pacific/nepal-pm-test/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #asiapacific #floods #nepal #china #glaciers #himalayas #balenshah

#Movies #ClassicMovies . . .

Just rewatched #LostHorizon (1937) on #Tubi, a #FrankCapra movie starring #RonaldColeman & co-starring #JaneWyatt, for the 1s time in years.

I've got this #movie on #DVD but the one on Tubi is the restored 132 min movie; the one that I have on DVD is a shorter cut version.

The movie is about finding the mythical city of #ShangraLa in the #Himalayas. It's a great movie & a "must see," if you're a movie buff & if you've never seen it before.

It's in B&W. They have the full sound track but 6-7 mins of the film was never found in useable condition. I'd rate it 9 out of 10.

🥶🔍 Oh no, the #Himalayas are turning into a barren #wasteland because winter is slacking off on snow duty! Scientists "warn" us with their serious faces while we all collectively yawn and scroll past the BBC's infinite scrolling chaos. Remember, if it's not melting faster than your ice cream on a hot day, it's probably not newsworthy. 🌍🔬

“HIGHLIGHTS
• The rise in temperature and increase in precipitation is projected in future in Kaligandaki River basin.
• The water availability in the basin is not likely to decrease during this century.
• The change in water balance in the upper sub-basins of Kaligandaki River is higher.
• The output from this research could be beneficial for water resources management..."

I am just finishing the trip, that I was guiding in Nepal. Kala Patthar, the famous Everest viewpoint, climbed again and another group safely guided to the top and back. I will be guiding in the region again in November!
