Extractions: Food as Fuel In this, one of the steepest countries on the planet, food is valued primarily for human fuel rather than social interaction. In a land of rugged terrain soaring up from lush jungle to snow-covered peaks, including Mt. Everest, being thin is not considered an asset. Though there are a few outside influences from China, Tibet and India, most Nepali cuisine is as basic as it gets, with simple preparation and quick consumption. But there are a few national specialties found nowhere else, so join us as as we explore the foods of the world's highest country. Research for the Nepal provided by Moon Publications.

The House was dissolved by King Gyanendra on the advice of Prime Minister Deuba. "It is a prerogative of the prime minister to dissolve parliament and call fresh elections," Chief Justice Keshav Prasad Upadhyay said, delivering the verdict.
