Costco maintaining low rotisserie chicken prices

Costco CFO Richard Galanti said the company is maintaining low prices on certain products – including its coveted rotisserie chicken – to drive membership and sales. Galanti, on the retailer's earnings call this week, said the membership warehouse has kept its rotisserie chicken price at $4.99, because it is "is an investment in low prices to drive membership – to drive the sales in a big way."Rotisserie chicken is just one example of key categories that members specifically shop for where the company has invested in pricing. However, this comes as Costco posted revenue of $55.27 billion in the period, falling short of Wall Street forecasts. Ten analysts surveyed by Zacks expected $55.64 billion. Inflation remains a headwind, though the company acknowledged that it's been improving somewhat. During the fourth quarter, which ended in August, the company's estimated year-over-year price inflation was 8% for that prior fiscal year.

Iran rattled over suspected poisoning of hundreds of schoolgirls

TOPSHOT - Iranian high school students sit for their university entrance examination in Tehran on June 25, 2009. Iran has jailed more than 140 political activists, journalists and university lecturers since the disputed election which returned Presid DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) - Over the past three months, hundreds of young girls attending different schools in Iran have become overpowered by what are believed to be noxious fumes wafting into their classrooms, with some ending up weakened on hospital beds.Officials in Iran's theocracy initially dismissed these incidents, but now describe them as intentional attacks involving some 30 schools identified in local media reports, with some speculating they could be aimed at trying to close schools for girls in this country of over 80 million people.The reported attacks come at a sensitive time for Iran, which already has faced months of protests after the September death of Mahsa Amini following her arrest by the country's morality police.RELATED: Feds say Iranian-backed gang behind Brooklyn assassination attemptThe authorities have not named suspects, but the attacks have raised fears that other girls could be poisoned apparently just for seeking an education — something that's never been challenged before in the over 40 years since the 1979 Islamic Revolution.

Bullfrogs for dinner? Utah wildlife officials want you to catch – and eat – this invasive species

A bullfrog is seen on the course during the second round of the Charles Schwab Challenge at Colonial Country Club on May 27, 2022 in Fort Worth, Texas. (Photo by Tom Pennington/Getty Images) The Utah Division of Wildlife Resources is encouraging people to help out the environment by hunting – and even eating – bullfrogs. "Since it's National Invasive Species Awareness Week, it's a good time to remind you that bullfrogs are invasive to Utah, so you can catch as many as you want," the agency said Thursday on Twitter, adding, "And bonus: they're tasty." According to Lee Kay, a public shooting range facilities and grounds supervisor at Utah DWR, bullfrogs are an invasive species and are voracious predators in Utah that will eat almost anything, including snakes, fish, toads and mice.Bullfrogs are typically green or gray-brown with brown spots and have easily identifiable circular eardrums — or tympanum — on either side of their heads, the agency explains. The largest of all North American frogs, bullfrogs can grow to a length of eight inches and can weigh up to 1.5 pounds. "So target the big ones — they have the most meat," Kay said in a 2019 blog post on the agency's website.
