The late Queen wasn't afraid to get stuck in when it came to everyday chores, and was known to pop on the Marigolds to do the washing up during her summer breaks at Balmoral Castle.
But anyone who chose to help out did so at their own risk.
Lady Anne Glenconner worked as Princess Margaret's Lady in Waiting and, as such, was privy to seeing the monarch behind closed doors.
Writing in her book Lady in Waiting: My Extraordinary Life in the Shadow of the Crown, Lady Anne recalled receiving a stern warning from the Queen's only daughter when she and her husband attempted to help clear up after a summer picnic.
She wrote: "The first time we went on one of these grand picnics, Colin and I started to carry things back to the mobile kitchen, helping to clear up.

During the August 31 episode of Mad Money, Jim Cramer highlighted Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:PLTR) as one of the market's standout performers. He commented:
Second is Palantir which rallied 51%. My take is that Palantir shouldn't have ever been down to begin with based on the Rule of 40 that we typically use to judge this kind of business. When you add up the revenue growth plus the profit margin, the sum comes to 155. I don't know how you sell something with that kind of profitable growth.
Palantir Technologies Inc.'s (NASDAQ:PLTR) operational performance fully backs up Cramer's bullish view. In its Q2 report, the company posted total revenue of $1.94 billion, representing a staggering 93% year-over-year increase. Growth was driven mainly by its domestic operations, where U.S. commercial revenue surged 149% as enterprise clients aggressively deployed its Artificial Intelligence Platform.
The company generated a GAAP net income margin of 55% along with an adjusted free cash flow margin of 63%. More importantly for the Rule of 40 calculation, Palantir posted a 62% adjusted operating margin. Combined with its 93% revenue growth, Palantir Technologies Inc.'s (NASDAQ:PLTR) Rule of 40 score reached an extraordinary 155%, which places it in a rare tier compared to standard enterprise software peers.
Despite these significantly strong numbers, the valuation multiples have reached extreme territory. Trading at 115x forward earnings, Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:PLTR) prices in nearly flawless future execution.

Jane Fonda and Barbra Streisand have led tributes to the late Gloria Steinem.
The trailblazing feminist activist died at her home in New York City on Wednesday. She was 92.
Following the sad news, Fonda issued a heartfelt statement via Instagram.
"Gloria, in her graceful, kind, and deeply intelligent way, changed the world we live in," she wrote. "(Gloria) had a clever, often funny way to say just what was needed to surface feelings and ideas about where we belonged, what our inchoate yearnings meant, whether power was a word that women could and should embrace for ourselves, and how different power looked when held in men's hands alone."
While her own message, Barbra recalled how she was "deeply impressed" by Gloria from the moment they met in the 1970s.
"What made her so extraordinary was not only the strength of her convictions, but the humanity and grace with which she expressed them," the legendary singer-actress mused. "Gloria once said, 'When unique voices are united in a common cause, they make history.' Her voice changed history, but her greatest legacy may be the countless voices she helped others find - and gave the courage to use."

Global hyperscalers and enterprise buyers are committing record capital to artificial intelligence (AI) data centers, creating extraordinary demand for high-end GPUs and networking equipment. As the dominant supplier of AI accelerators, Nvidia is at the heart of this spending wave.
Nvidia's latest results only strengthened that case when the company surpassed its Q2 FY2027 top- and bottom-line expectations. Moreover, management added that demand continues to outpace supply, meaning available capacity, not customer appetite, is currently the more pressing limitation.

A week after a controversial commercial depicting a woman being shoved to the ground by a man after she tried to pull a driver out of a golf bag, the brand quickly removed the ad due to viewer backlash. Following the incident, two individuals responsible for the project have been fired.
On Wednesday, Good Good Golf CEO Matt Kendrick and President Joe Flannery were relieved of their duties, according to an internal email circulated among Good Good Golf employees. The company's Chief Financial Officer, Alex Puchala, stated in the email that co-founder and original investor Nahid Giga will serve as interim CEO, effective immediately.
"This is a difficult day for the entire Good Good family," Puchala wrote in the email. "Matt helped build something extraordinary that exceeded all expectations and continues to bring countless new fans to the sport. What began as a small group of friends playing golf is now a growing global community."
Garrett Clark, a brand co-founder and the actor who shoved former Indiana Hoosiers golfer Alexis Miestowski in the ad, will remain with the company.
"Garrett and the creator team will keep doing what they do best," Puchala continued in the email. "Making great content and engaging our fans who are eager to see and hear from us."

The NBA leveled an extraordinary punishment against the Los Angeles Clippers in a salary cap circumvention scheme, and in doing so, created a host of questions about what comes next for the team, its ownership and Kawhi Leonard.
The Clippers vowed to vigorously fight the crackdown, but their options are limited.
The league's punishment included suspending owner Steve Ballmer for one year and ordering the team to forfeit five first-round draft picks from 2029-2033 for violating salary cap circumvention rules in a case involving Leonard. In addition, the team was ordered to pay a $30 million fine, while president of basketball operations Lawrence Frank was banned six months and team president of business operations Gillian Zucker was benched for one year.
The punishment comes after a nearly yearlong investigation. The Clippers say they will challenge the decision and pursue legal options, but the punishment leaves the organization in a state of flux moving forward.
Here's what to know:

English club cricketer and endurance athlete Sam Bodoano has completed an extraordinary 62-mile (100km) run from Lord's Cricket Ground in London to Valley End Cricket Club in Woking, Surrey, in an attempt to set a Guinness World Record for the longest run-up before bowling a cricket ball.
Bodoano, 22, from Worplesdon near Guildford, Surrey, began his run at Lord's on Saturday and completed the gruelling journey around 14 hours later at Valley End Cricket Club on Sunday. His challenge culminated in him bowling the opening delivery of an 11-a-side match to his father.
To meet the requirements for the record attempt, Bodoano had to complete the entire 100km journey in full cricket whites while carrying a cricket ball. He then had to take part in a cricket match and deliver the opening ball. While Bodoano has completed the challenge and believes he has surpassed the existing mark, Guinness World Records has not yet officially recognised the achievement. The organisation's evidence review and verification process is still under way.
A Guinness World Records spokesperson said the application would need to go through the formal evidence review process before the record could be officially confirmed. The review can take around two weeks, depending on the evidence submitted.
If confirmed, Bodoano's run-up would comfortably surpass the previous men's record of 15 miles. The current holder of the record for the longest bowling run-up (male) is Tom Dunn, who ran 15 miles (24km) from Bethnal Green, in east London, to Wandsworth Common, in south London, in August 2024.
Despite the physical demands of the challenge, Bodoano completed the run for a charitable cause, raising almost £6,000 (Rs 7,64,513) for The Ruth Strauss Foundation, a cancer charity founded by former England captain Sir Andrew Strauss.
"I'm very tired, I lost a lot of sleep, but it was all for an amazing cause," Bodoano said.
An experienced endurance athlete, Bodoano has previously competed in the England Hockey Men's Premier League, completed the London Marathon and Ironman Wales, and finished third in a 112-mile backyard ultra-marathon. He also works as a running coach and content creator.

Vikings' J.J. McCarthy decision changes meaning of his former franchise-QB label originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Minnesota Vikings insist they have not given up on J.J. McCarthy. Their depth chart tells a more complicated story.
Minnesota general manager Nolan Teasley reaffirmed the organization's belief in McCarthy this week and said he expects the former first-round pick to remain with the Vikings. McCarthy currently projects behind Kyler Murray and Carson Wentz after another injury-disrupted offseason, according to the New York Post.
That is an extraordinary position for a quarterback selected 10th overall only two years ago. It does not necessarily mean his opportunity has ended.
Minnesota originally drafted McCarthy as its possible long-term answer. A torn meniscus erased his rookie season before it began. Ankle and concussion issues then limited him to 10 games last year, preventing the Vikings from receiving a clean evaluation of his development.

JOHANNESBURG (AP) — Enos Mafokate, South Africa's first Black show jumping champion and veteran equestrian, has died at the age of 80, his family announced on Thursday.
Mafokate broke racial barriers in a sport that was dominated by white riders during South Africa's decades of apartheid. He was widely known as "Kgosi ya Dipere," a Sesotho language phrase which translates to "King of Horses."
"His journey was shaped by several leading figures in South African equestrian sport who recognised his extraordinary ability and, at critical moments, supported him as he challenged the racial barriers of the time," his family said in statement.
Mafokate started out as a stablehand. He won his first riding competition in 1963 but the country's segregation laws prevented him from taking part in further competitions until 1975.
In 1980, he was the first Black South African man to compete internationally as a show jumper, placing fifth out of 31 riders at the Royal International Horse Show at Wembley.

Kristen Stewart has spent much of her life in front of cameras, yet fame has never made performing feel completely ordinary to her. Acting requires someone to become another person while an audience watches, an experience Stewart has described as inherently strange. Public appearances can bring a similar sense of discomfort, but one area where she has developed a distinctive identity is fashion. Rather than treating clothes as a carefully calculated part of celebrity life, Stewart prefers to trust her instincts. That approach has helped make her style recognizable both on the red carpet and on screen.
Stewart's relationship with fashion has also been shaped by her long ****** ociation with Chanel. Although glamorous gowns and designer looks frequently accompany major premieres and events, she does not believe every outfit needs to be worn simply because it appears fashionable. If something feels wrong, she would rather change direction. For Stewart, discomfort can become visible, so confidence comes from choosing clothing that feels authentic. Her willingness to mix elegance with a more relaxed personal style has become part of her public image.
That philosophy took on a different meaning when Stewart played Princess Diana in Pablo Larraín's 2021 film Spencer. The movie imagines Diana during a tense Christmas gathering with the British royal family as she struggles with her marriage and the expectations surrounding her position. Stewart found that the costumes were far more than beautiful recreations of royal fashion. They helped establish the emotional reality of the character and provided another way to understand the pressure Diana experienced.
Stewart described Diana's clothing as capable of communicating dramatically different emotions. At certain moments, an outfit could feel restrictive, almost like a form of confinement. At others, the same world of carefully chosen clothing could provide confidence and strength. Through research, Stewart noticed how Diana's personality could remain visible even when she appeared uncomfortable with what she was wearing. Instead of disappearing beneath the clothes, Diana could project an unmistakable energy through them. That observation became useful for Stewart as she searched for a believable interpretation rather than simply attempting an imitation.
Stewart and Diana both experienced extraordinary levels of public attention, but Stewart has resisted easy comparisons between their lives. What connects them more meaningfully in Spencer is the importance of individuality under intense scrutiny. For Stewart, clothing became one of several tools for exploring that conflict. Her instinctive approach to personal fashion may reject anything that feels unnatural, but acting sometimes requires exactly the opposite. An uncomfortable costume can reveal something essential about a character, turning fashion from decoration into a powerful part of storytelling.

The status of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's marriage has been a topic of discussion since the day they got married. Unfortunately, this is a pretty normal thing for celebrity relationships—people are interested, so every little interaction and possible issue is magnified. The Duke and **** ss of Sussex are no exception.
Now, Closer is reporting that their move back to the UK has been hard on them. "'Those close to the couple are concerned and worry that this could be the worst move Harry has ever made," an insider told the outlet. "This isn't a fairy tale, it's real life.

Katie Meyer's No. 19 will officially be the first jersey number retired in Stanford women's soccer history.
The former standout goalkeeper will be honored during a ceremony before the Cardinal's home match against USC on Thursday. Meyer, who played for Stanford from 2018 to 2021, died by suicide in March 2022. The two-time team captain helped lead the Cardinal to the 2019 national championship.
"Katie was an extraordinary competitor, an exceptional leader and, most importantly, an incredible person who had a profound impact on everyone around her," Stanford women's soccer coach Paul Ratcliffe said in a statement. "She played the game with such passion and courage, and she brought a joy and energy to our program that was uniquely Katie.
"Retiring the No. 19 is a meaningful way for us to honor her legacy and ensure that future generations of Stanford women's soccer players understand the impact she had on this program, this university and the people who had the privilege of knowing her."
According to Stanford athletics, the match against USC will also serve as the school's annual Mental Health Awareness match. The Cardinal will distribute "Mental Health Matters" hats to fans in attendance, and various on-campus organizations will be present to promote mental health awareness and emphasize the importance of supporting people who may be struggling.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's big return to the UK means the press around them is more alive than ever. It's always been made up of contradictory reports from different camps, and that still seems to be the case. Anyone interested in the couple will have to dig through two contrasting narratives to figure out the truth.
Let's take their new living situation, for example. There's been no official announcement about where the Duke and ****** ss of Sussex will be living while in the UK, but royal insider Rob Shuter reported that Harry's uncle, Charles Spencer, offered them The Falconry, a 17th-century lodge on the Spencer family's Althorp Estate in Northamptonshire.

It's no secret the Internet is obsessed with Zosia Mamet, but the actress is ready to share her own obsessions in her new Lemonada Media podcast, "OMG Obsessed."
The podcast network unveiled its fall slate exclusively to TheWrap on Wednesday, teasing the "Girls" actress' upcoming conversations with guests as they "unpack the passions, fixations and rabbit holes they can't stop thinking about" ahead of a Sept. 16 premiere.
"I'm an extremely curious (and admittedly obsessive) person, so this show feels like a dream," Mamet said in a statement. "Everyone has that one thing they could talk about forever, and I've always found those conversations to be the most fun. They're revealing, they're weird and they're usually way more interesting than small talk. I hope people laugh, discover something unexpected and maybe leave with a few new obsessions of their own."
"The content landscape is so saturated these days, but at Lemonada we still believe that if you make great shows with extraordinary talent, audiences will find them," Lemonada Media CEO Stephanie Wittels Wachs echoed. "We're focused on creating content that people are genuinely 'OMG Obsessed' with – investing in singular voices native to the creator economy, building every show for a video-first ecosystem and giving creators the room to surprise audiences with something fresh."
The podcast company will also soon be premiering "So U Think U Can Sports?" with Eliot Glazer (Oct. 6), "Criminally Online" with "Survivor" all-star/public defender Eliza Orlins and law professor Thea Johnson (October), and Season 3 of "Squeezed" with Yvette Nicole Brown (Oct. 28), as well as an untitled entry from "Pen15" star Anna Konkle in January 2027.

Matchroom promoter Eddie Hearn has expressed regret over not bringing Katie Taylor to GAA headquarters earlier, following extraordinary ticket demand for the Irish fighter's farewell contest at Croke Park.
The 40-year-old will fulfil a lifelong dream when she takes to the ring in Dublin on Saturday night, seeking to become a three-time undisputed world champion against the undefeated Flora Pili.
A sell-out crowd of 80,000 is set to gather for the pioneering athlete's final bout prior to retirement, though Hearn remains confident that vast numbers of additional tickets could easily have been sold.
Previous concerns regarding financial viability, substantial security expenses, and complex logistics had dissuaded the promoter from organising a Croke Park show headlined by Taylor—a hesitation he now reflects on with disappointment.
Hearn said: "If Croker would have originally gone 'Yes, this is going to be massive', I would have gone 'Wow' and we would have done it.

After a banner second quarter earnings season helped push stocks to new highs this summer, there is a new combination at play that could aid the bull run going into the fall — provided oil prices don't explode above $100 a barrel and a hawkish Fed Chairman Kevin Warsh doesn't begin a rate-hiking cycle.
The next stock catalyst is the one-two punch of rising ***** yst profit estimates and fewer estimate cuts.
Earnings are bucking the seasonal revision trend and continuing to inflect upward, Evercore ISI strategist Julian Emanuel pointed out in a new note (see the chart below).
What's more, estimates for the median stock in the S&P 500 (^GSPC) have risen across top-line growth, bottom-line earnings, and free cash flow returns.
"We are living in extraordinary times," Emanuel wrote.

Broadcom (AVGO) reports fiscal Q3 2026 earnings after the close on Wednesday, Sept. 2. The numbers will almost certainly be extraordinary. The real question, and Morgan Stanley spelled it out, is whether extraordinary is enough.
That's the setup heading into Q3. Not "Can Broadcom deliver?" but whether it can clear a bar that some investors have quietly set at more than $150 billion in AI revenue for fiscal 2027. Morgan Stanley models $120 billion.
The gap between those two numbers is where near-term volatility lives. Remember, Q2 was a great reminder that very strong results are not necessarily enough when expectations are high.
The firm maintains its Overweight rating on AVGO, according to a note shared with me at TheStreet. But it's worth reading the note's headline: "The main risk into the print is expectations rather than fundamentals."

A new Liverpool wonderkid very much looks like a Steven Gerrard clone and he's on his way to the first-team soon.
Liverpool's former No.8 was everything supporters could have wanted from a captain.
Steven Gerrard was not simply one of the greatest midfielders in the club's history. He came to represent everything Liverpool stood for. Passion, commitment, leadership and extraordinary ability were all wrapped into one player.
What made Gerrard truly special, though, was his ability to take control when Liverpool needed him most.
A crunching tackle, a surging run through midfield, a defence-splitting pass or a moment of individual brilliance in front of goal — he always seemed capable of producing something when the situation demanded it.

Shirley MacLaine was pictured enjoying life at 92 as she stepped out for a relaxed lunch at Kirsty's in Malibu on Friday.
The legendary actress, whose extraordinary career has spanned more than seven decades, was photographed at one of her favorite local restaurants, looking comfortable in a simple black T-shirt, grey sweatpants and black slip-on shoes.
Shirley was accompanied by a female companion, whose arm she held as she carefully made her way down a step from the restaurant's outdoor terrace.
The Terms of Endearment star appeared relaxed during the low-key outing, which comes just four months after she celebrated her 92nd birthday on April 24.

Filip Hrgovic ripped up the script and shattered Moses Itauma's world-title dream as the Briton appeared to punch himself out in an extraordinary heavyweight contest in London.
Itauma, 21, controlled most of the fight and scored a second-round knockdown but faded as his relentless output caught up with him.
Hrgovic weathered the storm and piled on the pressure in the ninth. With Itauma barely able to stand, his legs unsteady and body swaying before slumping in the corner, his team threw in the towel.
Itauma - who needed medical attention before leaving the arena on a stretcher - had been a heavy favourite after tearing through his first 14 opponents and was spoken about as heavyweight boxing's next superstar.
"He is the best I have been in the ring with, but he needs more experience. I knew I was losing the round, but I knew that I had the pace in my favour. He needs more experience, but he is one of a kind," Hrgovic said.

Beyoncé has built a career defined by precision, discipline, and an almost unmatched attention to detail, qualities the superstar has repeatedly connected to her Virgo zodiac sign. Born on September 4, Beyoncé has proudly embraced her astrological identity through interviews, birthday celebrations, and songs such as "Gift From Virgo" and "Virgo's Groove." She has even blamed her tendency to overthink on being a Virgo, while people who have worked with her have described the extraordinary effort she puts into perfecting every performance.
However, Beyoncé's relationship with perfection appears to be evolving. After decades of allowing her Virgo characteristics to influence her public identity, the singer now says she is more interested in growth, storytelling, and creative freedom than creating something technically flawless.

Beyoncé has never hidden the more complicated side of her meticulous personality. During a 2013 interview with GQ, the "Crazy in Love" singer directly connected her tendency to overanalyze situations to her Virgo zodiac sign.
"Because I'm a Virgo, I will think myself into a crazy frenzy, and I will re-think and re-think and figure out, you know, way too many things," she admitted, which closely reflects several qualities astrologers traditionally ******* ociate with Virgo. The earth sign, which is ruled by Mercury, is frequently characterized as ******* ytical, practical, organized, and detail-oriented.

Management attributed a June same-store sales decline of 7% to an 'extraordinary stretch' of at-home sports viewership, specifically the World Cup and NBA Finals, which disrupted typical weekend bowling patterns.
The company reported a 3.5-point improvement in same-store sales comps over the prior year, driven by strength in retail bowling, shoe revenue, and a significant 8% growth in food sales.
California remains the weakest market, comping at minus 4% compared to plus 1% for the rest of the company, prompting a leadership overhaul and a restructuring of the state's corporate sales organization.
Strategic integration of five directly managed water parks increased operational complexity but delivered double-digit per capita spending growth through disciplined revenue management.

In a conference long known for its stout defenses, being recognized as the top player on that side of the ball is no easy feat. The last five winners reflect that. Since 2021, the last four winners of the award — Aidan Hutchinson (Michigan), Jack Campbell (Iowa), Jer'Zhan Newton (Illinois), and Abdul Carter (Penn State) — have made their presence felt on Sundays in the NFL. Caleb Downs, who is the most recent winner, was selected No. 11 overall by the Dallas Cowboys and could be in for a highly impactful rookie campaign.
Typically, I like to present a list of options and riddle the breakdown with several pumpfakes that'll make you believe I'm picking that player to take home the award later this year. Not this time.
2026 Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year: EDGE Anthony Smith, Minnesota
Last season, Smith was a disruptor. He finished the year with 21 solo tackles and 12.5 sacks. Those numbers are sometimes inflated in blowout wins against non-Power Five opponents, but that wasn't the case for Smith. The Golden Gophers opened the season against Buffalo and Northwestern State (FCS). Smith had just two sacks during that stretch, despite the victory over NWSU coming in the form of a 66-0 shellacking. He did add two sacks against a Non-Power Five foe, but that was in the Rate Bowl against New Mexico, so you can't dock him there.
Smith isn't my pick because he's the best defender. Nor is he my pick because Cleveland.com has the same projection. The team with the most candidates is Oregon. If the Ducks live up to expectations, they'll boast one of the most balanced defenses. With their mixture of talent and depth, we probably won't see any extraordinary stat lines from a Duck defender. This is where Smith benefits. If the award is not given to the best defender on the best defensive team, the second qualifier will boil down to numbers. Smith has already proven that he's capable of posting big ones.

The Colorado Buffaloes' linebacker core was completely revamped this offseason with Deion Sanders' staff adding three starting-caliber linebackers from the transfer portal. All three have had impressive fall camps, with two making the Butkus Award watch list and the other, Tyler Martinez, recently named to the Hispanic College Football Player of the Year watch list.
Martinez, a New Mexico State transfer, missed most of the 2025 season with an injury, but in the four games he played, he totaled 27 total tackles, four pass breakups, one tackle for loss, one interception and a forced fumble. He showed impressive playmaking ability in limited action, and Colorado hopes he can find that form in 2026.
The award was established only in 2025, with the founding of the Hispanic Football Hall of Fame. The inaugural recipient was Indiana's Fernando Mendoza.
Other players to make the preseason watch list include Mendoza's brother Alberto, who the Buffaloes are likely to face as Georgia Tech's presumptive starting quarterback. Penn State linebacker Tony Rojas and Washington quarterback Demond Williams Jr. are other stars on the list.
"Hispanic athletes are driving the future of college football, and this watchlist ensures their extraordinary achievements get the national spotlight they've earned," said Ron Rivera, HFHOF founding member and former NFL coach, via a press release. "Their stories bring great pride to our community."
