hello superstars it's Thursday August
29th happy Friday Eve I'm Coy wire this
is CNN 10 and I'm feeling a bit
loquacious today so I'm going to have to
keep up the pace because we've got a lot
of news to get to you and only 10
minutes to do it we're going to start
with some headlines today first in the
Middle East Israel's military carried
out raids and air strikes in the
occupied West Bank killing at least nine
Palestinians videos of the overnight
raids showed bulldozers tearing up a
street in a builtup area of the northern
city of taram and a strike on what
Israel officials said was a militant
operations room in the refugee camp Nur
Shams clashes have become more frequent
in the territory since the war in Gaza
began last October but this latest
operation marks a sign ific escalation
Israeli officials described the raids as
a counterterrorism operation while the
Palestinian Authority condemned the
operation as quote violation and Crimes
by Israel next we head to the Northeast
where efforts to curb a deadly mosquito
born virus have led to some objections
bites from infected mosquitoes are
causing a virus that leads to Eastern
ecne and sephtis or Triple E for short
which the CDC says kill kills about one
in three people who get it and 50% of
the survivors end up with lasting
neurological damage cases have been
identified in Massachusetts Wisconsin
New Jersey Vermont and New Hampshire
because the mosquitoes that spread chle
e are most active at Dusk and Dawn
officials in Oxford Massachusetts
announced a voluntary curfew of 6 p.m.
but members of the public weren't happy
about closing fields for Youth Sports a
change .org petition to keep the parks
open has nearly 900 signatures and a
town Board of Health meeting on
Wednesday got contentious please don't
do this to our kids 800 people find a
do and finally a headline that has some
big old shoes to fill paleontologists
have found matching dinosaur footprints
more than 260 of them in Africa and
South America the footprints are similar
in age shape and geological context back
then 120 million years ago to be
specific the seven continents hadn't
split apart yet remember Pangia so
scientists say the findings suggest that
dinosaurs once traveled along their own
version of a
highway Pop Quiz Hot Shot which Landmark
is also known as chalunga Mount Everest
aers rock kilowa or Tim Buck 2
towering over the Himalayan Mountains
you'll find what's known locally as
chalunga or Mount
Everest we want to introduce you to a
teenager who's making mountain climbing
history we travel to Nepal home to
several of the world's tallest Peaks and
home to Nima renji Sherpa who only has
one more mountain to climb in order to
conquer all 14 of the world's mountains
that are over 8,000 M tall
step by step this teenager is on his way
to making history 18-year-old naringi
sherper is setting his sides on the
highest peaks in the
world after reaching 13 of them he's
aiming to become the youngest person to
climb all 14 mountains above 8,000 M
even though he comes from a community of
Mountaineers this is still a big deal
this is a very big uh kind of advantage
for the sh community and even for me and
for for everyone you know like because
before this you cannot you cannot uh
imagine a teenager doing a 14 P you know
sherpers are an ethnic group native to
The Valleys around Mount Everest and
they're often guides for Mountaineers in
the Himalayas they carry large loads
like equipment and food fixing ladders
and ropes along the way always a
dangerous feat and climbing such
incredible Heights also brings great
risks Avalanches exposure and high
altitude sickness can easily take over
and can be the difference between a
successful Summit and never reaching the
peak but naringi sherper says his mental
state is what keeps him focused and calm
I kind of convinced myself you know like
uh to be normal in the mountain like for
example uh when I see abulance or bad
weather or when I see an accident in the
mountain I'm not uh in hurry or I don't
get like nervous something like that
only about 40 people have reached all 14
peaks of what they call the 8000ers
they're all in the Himalayan and caracum
ranges spanning China Pakistan Nepal and
India as the youngest climber not only
has sherper broken multiple records his
Expeditions have taught him a lot I've
learned so much uh things about nature
human body human psychology meeting new
people nature and like everything in the
world and I learned from the mountain
with his sight set on One Last Mountain
shisha pangma in Tibet he's hoping to
inspire others and develop
mountaineering into a professional sport
so whether he's on the ground or on top
of the world sherper is set on breaking
more
barriers we're now taking a look at a
nonprofit in Northern California that
pairs vulnerable young people with
abandoned or abused dogs Unchained Works
primarily with juvenile correction
facilities and teaches young people
about about dog training using positive
reinforcement to better prepare them for
adoption take a looky who's that this
see I was a troubled child I would run
around cause a lot of trouble in and out
incarceration most of the dogs didn't
really catch my attention until I seen
this boxer named Quincy when kids can
contribute to giving a dog a second
chance at a better life we see the shift
in them yes beautiful timing the k9's
teaching compassion program it's an
8-week program we have a skills
curriculum
yay the kids use what's called positive
reinforcement training we partner with
juvenile detention centers educational
institutions and nonprofit organizations
serving
youth we don't know their stories what
maybe put them in juvenile hall you've
got
kids who have experienced a lot of
trauma in their lives and we get to go
in with a blank slate they may share a
very similar story with their dog that
their dog has experienced neglect or
abandonment or maybe abuse once they
start applying the positive
reinforcements with the dog and teaching
the dog and the dog is responding nicely
done then there's a lot of reciprocity
that goes back and forth she's available
100% available for adoption we know that
when dogs are well trained and and
socialize they have a greater chance at
adoption good
job since the start of our services we
have served more than 450 youth those
youth have contributed to the adoption
placement of more than 220 dogs I
learned a lot of uh social skills I
learned how not to be nervous and how to
kind of control my emotions a lot
down working with Quincy obviously
seeing him get a second shot actually
gave me a little bit of Hope thank you
for bringing this boy back to
[Applause]
life all right for today's story getting
a 10 out of 10 we head to Nebraska to
check out a
rediculous collection of antique
tractors look at them 51 of these old
Beauties are all owned by Wayne dreon

school put the collection on display to
celebrate his 80th birthday congrats to
