Russia covered up a nuclear disaster in Kazakhstan in the 1950s that was FOUR TIMES worse than Chernobyl reveals secret report
Fallout from a Soviet nuclear weapons test at Semipalatinsk in August 1956 resulted in more than 600 people in a town over 100 miles (175 km) away ending up in hospital with radiation sickness. The secret report (bottom left) was recently found at the test facility, where the first Soviet nuclear test was conducted on August 29, 1949 (top right).

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”.

Read the lyrics below.
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 (…)
