Our goals are to improve restaurant margins 500 total basis points and to generate at least $100 million to $125 million pre-tax profit improvement by the end of 2008. We are confident about our future and we are eager to begin writing the next great chapter of Wendy's long-term success story. |
Our growth is only limited by the number of employees we have, because finding qualified skilled craftsmen in our local area is difficult. We are always looking for the brightest and best to join our team, and we currently have one of the strongest teams in the valley. But we need more people. |
Our kids are playing with a lot of confidence now, and I don't blame them. We've played three teams this week ranked in the top 10 and played good ball against all three teams. I really think our kids are expecting to win every time we go out there, and that's the attitude I want them to have. |
Our objective is to create a more substantial approach to in-depth journalism. We want audiences to know that when there is a major world event or topic that affects our lives, and they are looking for more context, more depth and more information, Discovery Channel is where they will find it. |
Our press has been good to us most of the year. We used different types of presses ? we used a diamond-and-one and a we switched to a 2-2-1 ? and I thought our kids read it real well. What was really big off the press was that we converted some easy lay-ins. Those were some big points for us. |
Our visibility into the first and second quarters of fiscal 2006 indicates good revenue growth on the road to restoring Thermal Energy to profitability and becoming the company shareholders expect and deserve. We look forward to reporting those results to our shareholders in the coming months. |

Pakistan is against nonproliferation because it is always accompanied by disarmament. If [disarmament is] applied to some countries and not others, it will be dangerous to the security of the world This is not an issue of reaching compromises on language, this is an issue of national security. |

Part of the significance [of QIP] is to demonstrate that there's a process and a commitment. It's a level of commitment that goes beyond what an individual provider of IP or a small design house might do. It's showing that you really have the whole shooting match covered, from start to finish. |
Peach was the one that put us out of the playoffs last year. Anytime you can come over here to Peach County and get a win, it's big for your kids. The last three years, the visiting team has won every game. They still have to come to our place (May 2). We have to make sure that doesn't happen. |
People always ask what he taught me. I don't go too deep into it. We worked. We didn't visit too much outside of work. Some things that go unnoticed are just better off unsaid. That takes nothing away from anybody. He's a great guy. He's a great inspiration. He's done it. He's been successful. |
People are still seeing a lot of their needs being met on the current paradigm which has to do with a free client and pretty solid services that they are getting from the public services, ... That's probably one of the biggest barriers. What they have is often times good enough. |
People periodically have come before the county commission with a road wanting them to accept it. Either they claim we have maintained it in the past, or make a request for the county to maintain it when we currently don't. The commission listens to the request and then asks me to do research. |
Peter didn't think he would go that fast (in the preliminaries), so he wasn't giving it full steam in either the 100 or 200. I think he was surprised as anybody else to look up and see (the new record) up there. Considering he wasn't going at full throttle, I don't know what we'll see (today). |
