  A New Zealand pizza chain aims to become the world's first company to offer a commercial drone delivery service, a milestone in the onceunthinkable quest to save time and money with an air-borne supply chain dispensing with people. Domino's Pizza Enterprises Ltd conducted a demonstration pizza delivery by drone in the New Zealand city of Auckland on Thursday, and afterwards said it aimed to be the first company to launch a regular drone service, late this year, despite the fact that Domino's Chief Executive Officer Don Meij had said in a statement "We've always said that it doesn't make sense to have a 2-tonne machine delivering a 2-kilogram order."

  Even though Domino’s Pizza used in its test drones provided by U.S.-headquarted Australian drone company Flirtey, Philip Solaris, director of a New Zealand based drone company called X-craft Enterprises, said that while New Zealand has accommodating regulations on drones, Domino’s would be held back by a rule requiring drones to be kept in sight at all times, and added “I can't truly see how commercially viable that idea is because you would have to literally have somebody walking along to keep it in the line of sight, watching it at all times.” Other than that, he warned that “Domino’s service would still need to overcome random hazards (like) power lines, moving vehicles, children in the backyard playing”.

  Don’t laugh at me

  Mark Wills

  
  

  I’m a little boy with glasses

  The one they call the geek

  A little girl who never smiles

  ’Cause I’ve got braces on my teeth

  And I know how it feels

  To cry myself to sleep

  
  

  I’m that kid on every playground

  Who’s always chosen last

  A single teenage mother

  Tryin’ to overcome my past

  You don’t have to be my friend

  But is it too much to ask

  
  

  Don’t laugh at me

  Don’t call me names

  Don’t get your pleasure from my pain

  In God’s eyes we’re all the same

  Someday we’ll all have perfect wings

  Don’t laugh at me (…)

  When it comes to immigration, it helps if you’re white

  Lola Okolosie

  
  

  
  

  Bureaucracy. It’s a word laden with dark memories. We’ve all been caught up in it. Each will have a story of how once they were enmeshed in a paper-chain farce requiring merely a dash of common sense. But, as is typical of such scenarios, it’s usually missing. It would all be laughable if it weren’t threatening to engulf you in rage, or worse.

  
  

  By worse I mean the threat of being deported from the country in which you have chosen to make a life. This is where, until this week, Gregg and Kathryn Brain, found themselves. Having moved to Scotland in 2011 on Kathryn Brain’s student visa, the family had hoped to remain in the country by moving on to a post-study visa, but the government scrapped this scheme in 2012, potentially affecting tens of thousands. Deportation was imminent.

  
  

  An outpouring of support, not least from Scotland’s first minister, Nicola Sturgeon, and 20 job offers saved the day. Mrs Brain is now employed by Macdonald Hotels and Resorts Group as a curator for their Aviemore visitors’ centre.

  
  

  This is a feel-good immigration story. Lord knows we need one. And yet it’s hard not to look at this smiling family, relieved at what has been salvaged by the goodwill of others, and think of those we seem unwilling to welcome. No one wishes misfortune on any family. In fact, I’d like to think I share in this family’s happiness. They have overcome a system that otherwise would have treated them as merely numbers.[…]
