Historically, much of the gender gap in earnings could be explained by differences in education and occupational choices. However, this year’s economic sciences laureate Claudia Goldin has shown that the bulk of this earnings difference is now between men and women in the same occupation, and that it largely arises with the birth of the first child.

So unfair - we were at every game leading up to the final, when stadiums were at half capacity, and now we can’t see the final game because tickets are sold out #stormersfaithful #URC
I love this! So many parents miss out on important milestones because of work demands - great initiative.

VICTORY!
The High Court in Makhanda has granted the interdict against Shell conducting seismic survey along the Wild Coast. This is a great victory for communities in this area who would have been affected by Shell’s activities.

Went to @Game_Stores today to buy a high pressure washer.
Cashier asked if I was vaxxed.
I showed her the certificate.
Above the massive R500 discount, I got a further 10% off.
Thanks guys.
Great incentive to get vaxxed.
Wish more retailers would do the same.
