Combine a worldwide brand with solid execution, good growth, market share expansion, and a healthy dividend and it probably should be no great surprise that the stock is not cheap. Few companies are executing as well as McDonald's (NYSE: MCD) (let alone few restaurant companies), and the stock reflects this. While the company certainly has levers to pull for further growth and is a high-quality name, new investors may want to wait in the hope of a bargain before building a position here.
Investopedia Markets: Explore the best one-stop source for financial news, quotes and insights.
Juicy Third Quarter Growth
McDonald's did well for itself in the third quarter. Revenue rose 14% as reported, and 8% on a constant currency basis, as the company saw 5% worldwide comparable sales growth. Comparable store growth was good in the U.S. (helped by a strong September) and surprisingly strong in Europe. Results in Asia were a little disappointing, but still positive.
McDonald's also has done a good job of absorbing higher costs. Although restaurant operating costs climbed 16%, management has kept solid control on SG&A expenses and was able to match revenue growth this quarter (operating income was up 14% as reported and 8% in constant currency).
Costs Are Not as Bad as You Think
McDonald's is certainly seeing higher food costs, but these aren't hurting the company all that badly. For starters, McDonald's has scale - they don't have to deal with the likes of Sysco (NYSE: SYY) or other vendors on a "take it or leave it" basis; companies will take lower margins (in the short run, at least) to keep McDonald's business. (To know more about scale, read: What Are Economies Of Scale? )
Secondly, McDonald's cost inflation is not so bad on a relative basis. Protein producers like Tyson Foods (NYSE: TSN), coffee sellers like Sara Lee (NYSE: SLE), and produce vendors like Dole Food (NYSE: DOLE) have all been raising their prices and shoppers are seeing this on the store shelves. All in all, McDonald's real costs and pass-through costs have not been climbing as much as these at-home costs, so the company remains a pretty good value for the money.
The Strong Getting Stronger
This has been a brutal stretch for restaurants. Well-known names like Friendly's, Sbarro, Perkins and Chevy's (or their corporate parents) have declared bankruptcy in the past year. At the same time, many other well-known chains like Sonic (Nasdaq: SONC) and Jack In The Box (Nasdaq: JACK) are struggling to boost foot traffic. Simply put, there is no room for marginal performance right now - you have to offer something that customers really want and at a really attractive price or they simply will not come through the doors. On the other hand, for companies that do offer that, names that include McDonald's, Panera Bread Company (Nasdaq: PNRA), and Dunkin Brands Group (Nasdaq: DNKN), this is actually not such a bad time. (To know more about restaurant stocks, check out: How To Analyze Restaurant Stocks? )
More Growth Opportunity Than People May Think
Shortly after releasing earnings, McDonalds announced that it is bringing back the McRib again on a limited basis. The saga of the McRib is a story all its own, but it highlights an underappreciated opportunity for the company. As world travelers already know, the McDonalds menu is not universal; the menu in Delhi is different from the menu in Tokyo, and from the menu in London. It frankly surprises me a bit that the company does not try to introduce some of the regional favorites - even if on just a short-term promotional basis.
Just like the occasional foreign media property becomes popular in America (think of The Office or Pikachu), it doesn't seem out of line to think that the company could find another winner this way - or at least a media promotion that could drive some curiosity traffic.
The Bottom Line
McDonald's isn't cheap. Then again, why should a company with a return on capital strongly in the teens, good organic growth, and further expansion potential (both in geography and menu items) be cheap? What's more, the company offers a dividend yield that is compelling relative to U.S. government bonds and is arguably a better credit risk today.
It's difficult to make the value argument for a new investor to buy McDonald's today, and it arguably makes more sense to wait for a better entry price. That said, it's a compelling company and if investors think that the lack of risk (and the excellence of execution) make up for the price of the stock, it is hard to argue strongly against that position.

Wyndemere golf tournament raises over $58K for Children of Youth Haven
Wyndemere's 24th Annual Charity Golf Tournament was successfully held at Wyndemere Country Club on Monday, January 24th, 2011. The tournament raised more than $58,000 for Youth Haven, Collier County's only safe home for abused and neglected children and adolescents. The success of the 2011 event brings the total amount of funds raised for Youth Haven since the inaugural event in 1987 to over $1 million dollars.
More than 125 friends and supporters of Youth Haven hit the links for a fun-filled day of friendly competition, including an exciting $2,500 putting contest generously sponsored by Bigham Jewelers. A buffet-style lunch before the best ball of the foursome tournament's shotgun start, silent and live auctions, and an awards reception rounded out the day's activities. The event was sponsored in part by Wyndemere Country Club; Arthrex; lunch sponsors, Michelle & Jack DeVincent; reception sponsors, Marcia & Gus Nichols, print sponsors, Presstige Printing, and hole-in-one sponsor, Mercedes-Benz of Naples.
Many other special contributions, including numerous personal donations from Wyndemere residents who could not play contributed to the event's incredible success. These donations were made in response to an appeal to support the event through a designated donation made to underwrite the cost of a child per day at Youth Haven. The tournament was chaired for the 7th consecutive year by David & Lynn Ladd.
"We continue to be extremely proud of the generosity and support of Youth Haven shown year after year by Wyndemere's residents and community," the Ladd's said in a joint statement. "We thank all of you who participated in and supported the successful event and it is our hope that future tournaments can equal this year's enthusiasm and positive support for children in need of protection and a safe place to heal," the Ladd's added.
Plans are already underway for the 25th annual Anniversary Tournament tentatively scheduled for Monday, January 23rd, 2012.
Youth Haven is Collier County's only emergency shelter for severely traumatized abused, abandoned, and neglected children as well as the sole provider of an array of successful home and community-based parenting education, child abuse and homelessness prevention, crisis intervention, and family support programs. On-site behavioral counseling is also provided to all children in residence and children and families in the community on an outpatient basis in need of psychological and psychiatric care through the organization's Children & Family Counseling Center. Youth Haven provides services to more than 1,600 children and family members annually, is a COA nationally accredited organization, a member agency of the United Way of Collier County, and has been in continuous operation since 1972.

The word is on the wait list to get into the Oxford English Dictionary.
Jeggings really took off this year. Fast-fashion retailers like Topshop and H&M picked up on the jeans-and-leggings combination back in spring 2009, and since then, they just haven't gone away. It didn't help when celebrities like Beyoncé, Rihanna, and Whitney Port all modeled the painted-on denim look, which seems to flatter very little, despite being worn so much. Now the Oxford English Dictionary announced that the combination word made the book's new-word wait list, among other terms like "unfriend" and "staycation," both of which seem so real compared to "jeggings." It's not officially in the dictionary until publishers decide that it has become a permanent fixture of the English language, so there is still the possibility that the world will reject these. But with the path they're on right now, jeggings are heading right in the direction of Uggs: here to stay, forever.

text: Politics Political news Strickland being pummeled by GOP - and he's not even a candidate yet By Howard Wilkinson • Feb 15, 2015 For someone who has not even announced his candidacy for the U.S. Senate, Ohio's former Democratic governor, Ted Strickland, has been under heavy verbal artillery fire from the Republican establishment. The GOP – in particularly, the National Republican Senate Committee (NRSC) and the Ohio Republican Party (ORP) – has been regularly blasting Strickland in press releases for even considering running for the seat now held by Republican Rob Portman, even going so far as to use the words of a well-known Ohio Democratic political consultant to get under Strickland's skin. Hamilton County fires 104 poll workers for not voting By Howard Wilkinson • Feb 10, 2015 One hundred and four poll workers were let go by the Hamilton County Board of Elections Tuesday because they hadn't voted since the 2012 election. They were all working polling places during the 2013 and 2014 elections, but did not cast ballots themselves, according to the board staff. Poll: Kasich's approval numbers strong; Portman's, not so much By Howard Wilkinson • Feb 10, 2015 Karen Kasler / Ohio Public Radio An independent poll released Tuesday found a majority of Ohioans are happy with Gov. John Kasich, but also found that support for U.S. Sen. Rob Portman is generally positive but somewhat soft. The Quinnipiac University poll showed 40 percent of Ohioans approve of the job Portman is doing, while 21 percent said they disapproved. Ohio's Democratic senator, Sherrod Brown, had 45 percent job approval. Howard Wilkinson's Monday morning chat: Kasich, Paul and the White House By Howard Wilkinson • Feb 9, 2015 Michael E. Keating WVXU politics reporter Howard Wilkinson talked with Maryanne Zeleznik this morning about the two possible GOP presidential contenders from the Tristate - Kentucky's Rand Paul and Ohio's John Kasich. Last week was not a particularly good week for either of them. Kasich, Paul find there are always bumps on the road to the Presidency By Howard Wilkinson • Feb 8, 2015 So, how about the Tristate's two potential Republican presidential candidates, U.S. Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky and Ohio governor John Kasich? What kind of week did -they have, you ask? Well, not so great. At least as it relates to whatever presidential ambitions they have. Kasich was the victim of polls in key states that show pretty clearly that, as a potential candidate, he ranks at or near the bottom of the list among GOP voters in some important battleground states; and doesn't exactly set the world on fire among Ohio Republican voters either. Poll: Kasich the slight favorite of Ohio Republicans for president By Howard Wilkinson • Feb 4, 2015 Andy Chow An independent poll released this morning shows that while Ohio Gov. John Kasich is the slight favorite for the Republican presidential nomination among Ohio GOP voters, he barely registers with Republicans in other key states. School levies in Butler and Warren counties pass with ease By Howard Wilkinson • Feb 4, 2015 School levies in Butler and Warren County passed easily Tuesday in an Ohio special election where most voters had nothing to vote on. In Butler County's Madison Local School District, a 7.07 mill, 10 year emergency tax levy renewal passed with 76 percent of the vote. Turnout in the district was 12 percent. The Franklin City School District had an 8.8 mill, five year levy on the ballot in Warren County. It passed with 70 percent of the vote. About 13 percent of the district's voters turned out. Poll: Among Ohio voters, Hillary Clinton wipes out GOP contender - except for Kasich By Howard Wilkinson • Feb 3, 2015 Holly Yurchison / WVXU A new independent poll shows that, among Ohio voters, Hillary Clinton would easily defeat some of the best-known potential Republican presidential contenders – except for Ohio Gov. John Kasich. The Quinnipiac University poll showed a virtual dead heat between the Democratic front-runner and Kasich among registered Ohio voters – 44 percent for Clinton and 43 percent for Kasich. It's a special election day in Ohio, but most voters have nothing to vote on By Howard Wilkinson • Feb 3, 2015 Ohio is holding a special election today, but the vast majority of voters in southwest Ohio have no reason to go to the polls. Polling places in Hamilton and Clermont counties won't open today, because there were no ballot issues filed for today's election. In Butler County, there is only one issue on the ballot – an emergency tax levy renewal for the Madison Local School District amounting to 7.07 mills for 10 years. Warren County, too, has one issue on the ballot – an 8.88 mill, five year renewal for the Franklin City Schools. Howard Wilkinson's Monday politics chat: What's John Kasich up to? By Howard Wilkinson • Feb 2, 2015 WVXU politics reporter Howard Wilkinson talked with Maryanne Zeleznik this morning on Ohio Gov. John Kasich - how he angered some Northern Kentucky politicians last week, the state budget he will propose today, and his possible presidential ambitions.

In 1978, her co-starring role with John Travolta in Grease catapulted her into super-stardom and to date remains the most successful movie musical of all time.

Oklahoma's rural areas search for doctors to come 'home'
"You could stand in one corner of Oklahoma City, throw a rock and hit no less than four hospitals," said Brock Slabach, senior vice president for member services at the National Rural Health Association. "And nobody seems to ever question whether there are too many hospitals or too many services in an urban center, but you start talking about rural hospitals or rural clinics, and people start to talk about how there's too many hospitals or too many of this or that."
Slabach said recent medical school graduates aren't generally trained to operate a business. This means communities either need a hospital, a federally qualified health center or a rural health clinic — some kind of structure — to pull in prospective doctors.
"Physicians go and get exceptional training in how to treat the human body," Slabach said. "But they don't feel comfortable or capable in being an expert in billing and collections and medical records and space planning."
In Carter's office, OSU medical student Tiffany Palmer helps with the steady stream of patients.
She started her stint at Carter's office in early June. Right now, she's considering being a pediatrician and looking at programs in larger cities, including Memphis, Tenn., and Oklahoma City.
But rural areas are appealing, one of the reasons being that there are medical school loan repayment plans for medical students who finish school and go to work in a rural setting. Palmer anticipates she will have about $160,000 in student loan debt.
Palmer, who grew up in Houston and Moore, has learned a lot during her time in Poteau. She didn't anticipate so much freedom, but that's how Carter runs his office.
She remembered treating a woman who came in with breathing problems. She and Carter discussed what the woman needed. Palmer asked about a medicine she had learned about in classes, but Carter pointed out the side effects.
They ended up sending the woman to the hospital to help regulate her breathing. Later that evening, they went to check on her.
"And that was my first day," she said.

Many people use furniture restoration techniques to bring lovely antique furniture back to its original glory and using it to adorn their homes. A growing number of people are trying to find unique furniture treasures at flea markets, resale shops, and garage sales because they can often get them for less than a new piece of furniture. The issue is that many of these pieces are in less than perfect shape and need to be treated and conditioned before they will look the way they originally did. Thanks to modern restoration solutions and a variety of helpful resources, however, you can easily bring back the original shine and beauty of antique wood furniture even if you are not an expert in the field. An informative website like www.woodsbestfriend.com will give you more info about the importance of antique furniture restoration and how it will benefit you.
Do not begin with furniture restoration on any piece of wood until you have first figured out what kind of finish was originally applied to it. If you were to proceed with your project utilizing any method without first thinking about what finish you are working with you would likely waste a lot of time. Denatured alcohol and lacquer thinner are able to assist in revealing whether the furniture was finished with lacquer, shellac, or varnish.
The preliminary process in furniture restoration is to clean any dirt and wax that has accumulated on the wood off so that you can get to the base of the item. Do this by using a wood cleaner or conditioner and putting it on with a soft cloth; after you have applied the product you should let the wood dry and consider reapplying, depending on how the wood looks. If the dirt is especially difficult to remove you might get better results from letting it dry out completely and then going over it again with a solvent or a liquid detergent solution. Additional data about handmade pens can be reviewed on the site of photobucket.
With time, wood wears down after years of use, no matter what quality it is; that is one reason why staining the furniture you want to restore will help improve its look. You may notice that you are obligated to sand down some of the most worn spots on the surface in order for the stain to take full effect; restorative wood products are also sold that bring the original look back to your furniture.
Restoring wood furniture and clean hardwood floors to their original beauty is much easier than ever before thanks for modern cleaning and restoring products. Furniture restoration projects provide you the chance to take personal pride in taking an old piece of furniture and making it look new again. There are more articles that talks about wood paneling and you can see a lot of them on this site .

SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) — Authorities were working frantically Monday to reach motorists in snow-covered northwest Indiana who were trapped in their cars in biting temperatures.
LaPorte County sheriff's Deputy Andy Hynek said that officials don't know how many people were stranded but that some had been stuck for as long as 12 hours and many were in a 10-mile stretch of U.S. 30.
"All the way across U.S. 30 is at a standstill, and all of those vehicles are occupied," Deputy Hynek said.
The National Weather Service issued a winter storm warning for parts of northern Indiana, where heavy lake-effect snow was expected to drop an additional 5 to 10 inches Monday. Overnight temperatures dipped into the low 20s, with wind chills around 5 degrees.
Indiana authorities were having a hard time reaching motorists as snow plows struggled with the high drifts and roadways that were clogged with nearly 100 abandoned cars and some jackknifed semitrailers. But the wind was causing the greatest trouble.
"As soon as the plows go through an area, the wind is blowing fresh snow right back into the roads," state highway department spokesman Jim Pinkerton said. "It is just really difficult for us to keep up against that wind and snow."
LaPorte and Porter counties issued emergency orders telling drivers to stay off the roads as the area had winds up to 30 mph.
"The problem is people are leaving their houses for reasons that they don't need to leave," Deputy Hynek said. "That's why we issued the state of emergency."
The lake-effect snow in Indiana was separate from the powerful weekend storm that carried snow and high winds across much of the upper Midwest, said National Weather Service meteorologist John Taylor.
Flights were canceled, major highways were closed in several states and at least six weather-related deaths were reported. Schools in Indiana, Michigan, Wisconsin and other states shut down Monday because of the snow and low temperatures.
As temperatures in the Detroit suburb of Dearborn struggled to reach double digits Monday morning, Jeff Smith was digging out his car in his driveway — with no gloves or hat.
"Gloves make it hard to shovel, and my hair is still wet. So it's either you get a cold or you mess up your hair, so I risk the cold," said Mr. Smith, 57, a 30-plus-year Ford Motor Co. employee who's glad that his job is close to home.
The storm was headed northeast toward Canada, according to the National Weather Service, with some snow possible Monday in Michigan and through parts of Pennsylvania and New York. Nearly 2 feet of snow fell in parts of Minnesota and Wisconsin over the weekend.
In Minneapolis, heavy snow caused the inflatable roof of the Metrodome to collapse Sunday. Video inside the stadium aired by Fox Sports showed the inflatable Teflon roof sagging before it tore open, dumping massive amounts of snow across one end of the playing field.
No one was hurt, but the Vikings' game against the New York Giants had to be moved to Detroit's Ford Field. The day of the game already had been pushed back from Sunday to Monday because the storm kept the Giants from reaching Minneapolis on time. Stadium officials were trying to repair the roof in time for the Vikings' next home game on Dec. 20 against Chicago.
In the Chicago area, only a few inches of snow fell, but wind gusts of up to nearly 50 mph blew the roof off a building at the Navy Pier and canceled at least 1,375 flights at O'Hare International Airport and more than 300 at Midway International Airport. The cancelations left some travelers stranded overnight at O'Hare, where officials set up about 200 cots.
On Monday, about 75 flights were canceled, Chicago Department of Aviation spokeswoman Karen Pride said.
Associated Press writers Jeff Karoub in Dearborn, Mich.; Andale Gross in Chicago; Dirk Lammers in Sioux Falls, S.D.; David Goodman in Detroit; Dinesh Ramde in Milwaukee; and Patrick Condon in Minneapolis contributed to this report.

My take is countries do exist, but all of them gave up a certain amount of sovereignty for a world-wide government. In essence, you have the "United States of Earth," of sorts, and each nation is a state within the central world government.
So, it makes sense to me that two nations that so shaped world history still exist, just as Russia, France, Japan, and Brazil, other mentioned nations, do. It's just that by the 22nd century, those nations have learned to work together and formed a world government all nations are partnered in, rather than working alone and against each other. Basically, a utopia, where the UN actually works.

text: First time in Amsterdam and thanks to a few minutes of googling backed up by some Trip Advisor reviews we came over what seemed like a potentially good restaurant. OMG did we get it right. Chef Tommy den Hartog is so young and yet so talented and accomplished. His creative and well balanced use of excellent raw materials presented in tasteful compositions will delight even the most discerning diners. While Tommy rocks the kitchen Aline Mannes and her team have full control of the restaurant . what a team. The daily set menu and excellent wine pairing enables you to simply sit back, relax and let yourself be pampered, great value too. A star in the making indeed - should only be a matter of short time before official stars can be added to the description of restaurant Johannes in Amsterdam – enjoy!

wearing: Anthropologie skirt by HD in Paris, H&M top, Charles Jourdan shoes, Timex watch and BP necklace
Happy New Years Day! Although, I'd like to say I had a crazy time celebrating the new year… the truth is it was a very relaxing evening. My mum and I cooked a delicious italian meal (grab the recipe here), and my favorite was our homemade bruschetta. Can you say yum? Then, we ended the night by relaxing and watching movies. I'm really more of a "stay at home" kind of gal. The more exciting part was wearing this amazingly gorgeous HD in Paris skirt. When I opened this gift on Christmas; I was over the moon. It's very quality, with intricate lace and layers of tulle. Perfect for all seasons!

NICHOLS HILLS — A local church has become the first Catholic parish in Oklahoma to live stream its services online.
Mass appeal: Catholic parish in Oklahoma live streams services
The new digital project has brought the sacred Mass at Christ the King, 8005 Dorset Drive, outside the four walls of the Catholic church and into the lives of countless people, said the Rev. Rick Stansberry, Christ the King's pastor.
Stansberry said the live streaming of the church's weekly Masses was an idea that came from a conversation he had with a non-Catholic friend who said he had watched live streaming church services while he was ill and found it meaningful.
Stansberry noted that, through "The Pope" app, papal events at the Vatican have been live streamed from time to time. Some Catholic churches in the United States live stream services, but Stansberry said Catholic Mass simply hasn't been offered online in Oklahoma.
There's a reason for that, he said.
A central focus of Mass is the Liturgy of the Eucharist, also known as Holy Communion, Stansberry said.
The priest said there is a widely held belief and concern that making Mass available online would keep parishioners from attending the service and partaking in Holy Eucharist.
"For the Mass, you come to receive the Eucharist, and you can't get that if you don't come," he said.
Understanding those concerns, Stansberry took the project idea to members of Christ the King's parish council.
"Their fear was that people would use that as an excuse to not come to church," he said.
Stansberry told the council the potential benefits of the online availability far outweighed the concerns and expense.
The priest said he envisioned the live streaming capabilities as an important part of the church's community outreach. He said making Mass available online could be a vital evangelistic effort, helping to share the Gospel and educate people about Catholicism.
Also, he said offering the Mass online could also be beneficial to homebound parishioners.
Eventually, the council agreed.
Making it happen
Three cameras were installed in the church sanctuary, and the Mass on Palm Sunday was the first to be live streamed.
Now, the weekly Mass is live streamed and archived, available on the church's website at www.ckokc.org.
Stansberry said response to the new project came immediately after Holy Week. He said a vacationing parishioner expressed gratitude for being allowed to tap into his home parish while elsewhere. Plus, the priest said three non-Catholics reached out to him and told them how much they enjoyed the services.

Anna Minard claims to "know nothing about music." For this column, we force her to listen to random records by artists considered to be important by music nerds.
Lavender Country
(Gay Community Social Services of Seattle)
Here is an example of the kind of e-mail you say "YES" to:
From: Eli Sanders
I have a possible Never Heard of 'Em. I got slipped this record the other day called Lavender Country, which apparently is the first gay country album ever recorded (for real), and was produced here in Seattle in the 1970s, and is now kept in the archives of the Country Music Hall of Fame.
Well, gollllleee! Has anyone heard of this? Actually, yes. The Seattle connection—lead singer/founder of Lavender Country, Patrick Haggerty, is a local, and the album was originally paid for and released in 1973 by Gay Community Social Services of Seattle, identified in the liner notes as an organization that provides support to "small homophile organizations"—means that if anyone should've heard of this album, it'd be PNW folks, and Haggerty has played at Pride before. But no one I've talked to has ever heard of Lavender Country, and half of them thought I was joking when I said this week I was covering the first gay country album. So let's correct this error together, shall we?
First: I obviously cannot be a judge of quality here. That is not my purpose or area of expertise. I am here only to respond in darkness and without context to the sounds that emanate from the speakers. And second, regardless of quality, the importance of this album is cemented. A gay country album from 1973? What a badass! Take a look at some of the song titles:
