Explained: How we’re seeing the ‘death throes’ of long-lingering La Niña
New Zealand’s cold and soggy start to the week is linked to the “death throes” of a long-lingering climate pattern that played a major role in the North Island’s disastrous summer.

Photo / Paul TaylorNew Zealand’s cold and soggy start to the week is linked to the “death throes” of a long-lingering climate pattern that played a major role in the North Island’s disastrous summer. For meteorologists watching the wider picture, there’s some interesting – and in some cases, record-breaking – climate activity unfolding in the background, including the long-overdue demise of La Niña. Over the wider season, the shift from La Niña was expected to result in more variable airflow, temperature and rainfall patterns over the country.

Topic: EK fined for false advertising in NZ. – Business Traveller
This is an interesting one and would be quite something if it was to set a precedent. A NZ couple took Emirates to a disputes tribunal after booking a trip with EK in business class. They claimed that EK uses the new 777LR or A380 seat in their advertising in NZ and were shocked to find they had an outdated 777-300 with angle flat seating on their flight from AKL to DXB. EK claimed that it is in their contract of carriage that they can substitute aircraft at any time. The dispute tribunal however claimed that this however wasn’t a one off equipment change but the aircraft that EK regularly rosters to NZ because the aircraft with newer cabins are allocated other routes.

What’s going on with Gen Z & the beauty industry? A millennial investigates
Awe of Gen Z SophisticationWhen I see Gen Zs in the street, or on my social media feeds, I’m in awe of their sophistication. Back then (around 2008) social media was still in its infancy. “I would refuse to take any photos or post any photos if my hair wasn’t straight,” she shares. The Dove Self-Esteem Project recently revealed the results of their research into the effects of social media and idealised beauty standards on young girls in New Zealand. After seeing idealised beauty content on social media, almost half of the girls surveyed have undertaken a procedure to look more like the influencers they see online.

Letters: Vladimir Putin, emergency waiting times and ‘western science’
Photo / Jason OxenhamLetter of the week: Wait times: Avoidable incidents contributeThe opposition parties obviously see the possibility of gaining political points by harping on about waiting times at emergency departments. Niall Robertson, BalmoralScience not voodooIt’s a little disturbing that Dr Tara McAllister can use the term “Western Science”. Science is simply science. But to say that belief is on a par with science is simply incorrect. We have always needed a Ministry of Works (MoW) tasked with, among other things, the design and maintenance of public structures.
