Over all, Wendy's posted a preliminary profit of $85.9 million, or 31 cents a share, compared with a year-earlier profit of $23.3 million, or 6 cents a share. Excluding certain items, earnings from continuing operations were 12 cents a share, up from 8 cents a year ago.
Analysts, on average, had expected 11 cents a share, according to Thomson Reuters.
Revenue slipped 4.7% to $464.4 million, largely due to the ownership of 363 fewer company-operated restaurants in the period. Analysts had forecast $456 million in revenue.
A pr0n business with 5000 employees plus R&D department?! Come on!

Oh come on, we all loved (or craved) it while running Fractint, and prior to that we knew what they were for after seeing AutoCADs "remove hidden lines" feature on a math co-pro system!
Let me guess what that kinda gear was used for
Don't get me wrong,I just can't think of anything else with a ROI that would justify such expenses back in the days
Some 100 or even 50 years ago, the majority of people especially in rural areas were able to make informed assumptions as to tomorrows weather by looking up into the evening sky. Today, a growing number of people will not even associate "sky" if you mention "clouds" to them.
While it is rather unlikely that this is anywhere near NY Times' Greg Milner's point (proudly not having RTFA), here's my take: the problem is neither GPS nor common sense or the lack thereof, but our growing dependency on tech, while at the same time we neglect basically all of the knowledge and experience it took to get us to where we are. To put it another way: if individuals wanting to go somewhere close by end up in Croatia, where will humankind end up once it completely subjects itself to todays automated emergency response systems, high speed trading algorithms and real time stock market analyses and all the rest of the things we can no longer live without? A person might be silly, but it'll yet have to turn out if we as a species are silly
Oh come on, of course failed and failing states breed instability and of course the US is actively destabilizing regions all over the world. Rubio knows that, we all know that unless we don't want to hear it, and the brainwash you quote is just sickening. "[N]o longer legal and has theoretically stopped"? You might not be a liar, but you are certainly naive.
Don't get me wrong, it would be nice if we could still see the world the way you do, but it takes an awful lot of ignoring facts to do so.
