The National Emblem of Nepal

There are so few Images of it online and the one that Wikipedia has is inaccurate .......isn't that ridiculous.

Medieval America

See how American writers are still obsessed with their medieval units/measures:

Annapurna was the last of the 14 peaks taller than 26,247 feet (8,000 meters) that Oh needed to climb to make history. She reached the summit — 26,545 feet above sea level — 13 years after she scaled her first Himalayan mountain, Gasherbrum II, in 1997.

(Source:http://www.nytimes.com/2010/04/28/sports/global/28climber.html )

They won't even write the proper/sensible "8000 meters" first. This is strange and a sad, unfortunate fact.
