Sales surged but so did costs at Costco. The warehouse club operator’s quarterly profit missed Wall Street’s targets as the retailer spent more on benefits for employees who worked through the pandemic and sanitized its stores. Profit margins at American retailers have been squeezed further by pandemic-related charges. They had already been investing heavily to slash delivery times amid the surge in online demand from people ordering from home. Costco doled out premium pay to workers at the onset of the pandemic outbreak and hiked its minimum wage from March to $16, a dollar more than at Amazon and Target. Costco, however, performed well on the top line. Revenue rose to handily beat estimates as online sales jumped nearly 76% from a year earlier. Costco shares fell in early trading Friday, deepening their 15% loss this year.

In 2016 Kateryna Monzul made history.She became the first female referee in Ukraine to officiate a soccer match in the men's top division.[Ukrainian Soccer Referee, Kateryna Monzul]"I'll be honest with you - I was very emotional and nervous. I prepared myself for the match. But despite mental training, when I went out on a soccer pitch and watched teams lining up, I could even hear my heart racing. I was overwhelmed with emotions."Monzul's career has taken her from refereeing children's and youth championships to the 2015 Women's World Cup Final between the U.S. and Japan.Since then she became the first woman to referee Ukraine's domestic cup finaland was named the best referee in the men's division by the Ukrainian Association of Football.Her passion for soccer began where she grew up in the eastern Kharkiv region."When I was a kid, a house where I lived was next to a soccer pitch. So I spent my whole childhood there. I played soccer with boys. It was not popular among girls back then, but I liked it, I lived and breathed soccer."Women referees at men's top flight soccer matches are rare.France's Stephanie Frappart became the first woman to referee a major UEFA competition final in 2019.To be eligible for officiating men's matches, women must pass a men's fitness test - which Monzul says is the toughest part.When it comes to the refereeing - she says there's no difference between refereeing a men's or women's match, except that it is a common thing for men's clubs to gift Monzul flowers."During the match captains of the two teams gifted me two flower bouquets - one with yellow flowers and one with red flowers. And later on during the game, the team which gifted me red flowers got a red card. Since then, there is a joke that it is better to give flowers after the game, not before. Just like in any other job, the most important thing is to do your job professionally, then your skills will be in demand, no matter if you are a man or a woman. It is the result which matters, not gender."

Pastor Stewart-Allen Clark of Missouri's Malden First General Baptist Church gushed over an "epic trophy wife" and warned, "don't let yourself go."
The Duchess of Sussex “called all the shots” when it came to managing her own media, royal sources have said, casting doubt on her claim she could not be interviewed by Oprah Winfrey three years ago. Multiple royal sources have told The Telegraph the 39-year-old former actress “had full control” over her media interviews and had personally forged relationships not only with Ms Winfrey, but other powerful industry figures including Vogue editor Edward Enninful. In a teaser clip released from the Sussexes’s interview with the US chat show host, due to be aired in the US on Sunday, the Duchess said it felt “liberating” to be able to speak and accused the Royal family of effectively gagging her and taking away that choice. “It’s really liberating to be able to have the right and the privilege in some ways to be able to say yes, I’m ready to talk, to be able to make a choice on your own and be able to speak for yourself,” the Duchess said. In the clip, the Duchess and Ms Winfrey reference the fact that a royal aide was listening in to their first phone call in February 2018, although it is understood the pair had spoken privately before then.

The Royal family will assume the brace position as it awaits a stream of damaging revelations by the Duke and Duchess of Sussex in their Oprah Winfrey interview. The slickly produced, dramatic teasers quashed any lingering hopes that the couple might stick to more mundane and diplomatic subject matters. Instead, they will tell “their truth”, lifting the lid on life behind palace walls in a manner no member of the family has done for decades. The couple intend the interview to draw a line under their grievances and mark the end of that chapter of their lives, allowing them to finally look to the future. But in reality, the issues that they raise, the allegations they make, are expected to be explosive, with potentially serious and long-term implications for the monarchy.
