David Lynch Estate Auction Features Items From TWIN PEAKS, DUNE, and More

Some of the items in the David Lynch estate auction include the menus from Winkie's, the Denny's stand-in with a terrifying being that lives behind it in Mulholland Drive. There's Lynch's personal 35mm print of Eraserhead, the film that put him on the map. And there's quite a bit from the world of Twin Peaks. Lynch's original script from the series, when it was called Northwest Passage, as well as Fire Walk With Me, are among the auction items as well. The framed photo of the atomic bomb test that was in Gordon Cole's office in Twin Peaks: The Return? It was also part of Lynch's personal collection. Which is fitting, since he played Gordon Cole in the series.
One of the coolest items is Lynch's personal version of the red curtains and zigzag patterns, Twin Peaks' most iconic image. But the Holy Grail in this auction is Lynch's actual director's chair with his name on it. Whoever gets these, we honestly hope they donate them to a museum.
There are 444 lots in this auction, and some of them are just common household items, like coffee makers. But if you're a diehard David Lynch fan, you'd probably want a Lynch-owned coffee maker more than almost any other item in this auction.

Denny's (DENN) To Report Earnings Tomorrow: Here Is What To Expect
Diner restaurant chain Denny's (NASDAQ:DENN) will be reporting earnings this Monday after market close. Here's what you need to know. Denny's beat analysts' revenue expectations by 1.4% last quarter, reporting revenues of $111.6 million, up 1.5% year on year. It was a slower quarter for the company, with a significant miss of analysts' EBITDA estimates and a miss of analysts' EPS estimates. Is Denny's a buy or sell going into earnings? Read our full analysis here, it's free. This quarter, analysts are expecting Denny's revenue to grow 2% year on year to $118.3 million, improving from its flat revenue in the same quarter last year. Adjusted earnings are expected to come in at $0.11 per share. The majority of analysts covering the company have reconfirmed their estimates over the last 30 days, suggesting they anticipate the business to stay the course heading into earnings. Looking at Denny's peers in the sit-down dining segment, some have already reported their Q2 results, giving us a hint as to what we can expect. Kura Sushi delivered year-on-year revenue growth of 17.3%, beating analysts' expectations by 2.5%, and The Cheesecake Factory reported revenues up 5.7%, topping estimates by 0.8%. Kura Sushi traded down 11.8% following the results while The Cheesecake Factory was up 5.2%. Read our full analysis of Kura Sushi's results here and The Cheesecake Factory's results here. The euphoria surrounding Trump's November win lit a fire under major indices, but potential tariffs have caused the market to do a 180 in 2025. While some of the sit-down dining stocks have shown solid performance in this choppy environment, the group has generally underperformed, with share prices down 7.6% on average over the last month. Denny's is down 16.8% during the same time and is heading into earnings with an average analyst price target of $6.55 (compared to the current share price of $3.67). Today's young investors likely haven't read the timeless lessons in Gorilla Game: Picking Winners In High Technology because it was written more than 20 years ago when Microsoft and Apple were first establishing their supremacy. But if we apply the same principles, then enterprise software stocks leveraging their own generative AI capabilities may well be the Gorillas of the future. So, in that spirit, we are excited to present our Special Free Report on a profitable, fast-growing enterprise software stock that is already riding the automation wave and looking to catch the generative AI next.

I ordered the cheapest breakfast combo at Denny's and IHOP. The food was similar, but the prices were not.
It turns out that, when it comes to breakfast, not all chains are created equally, especially if you're an early riser. In search of the best value and taste, I recently ordered the same affordable combo (two sausages, two pancakes, two eggs) at breakfast chains IHOP and Denny's. They've always seemed quite similar to me, but I found myself shocked when I paid dramatically different prices in each place for near-identical meals. I also learned a frustrating lesson about timing — it really is everything. I started at Denny's, where the pancakes were massive and the sausage links tiny I arrived at a Denny's in Queens, New York, at 7 a.m. on a weekday. I was the only customer aside from a small family. My order was the cheapest meal on the Denny's menu, which proved to be the Everyday Value Slam. It consists of two eggs cooked however you like, bacon or sausage, and a choice of two pancakes, two slices of French toast, or a biscuit and gravy. I chose pancakes, eggs over medium, and sausage. When my food arrived, I was immediately struck by two things: The pancakes were huge, and the sausages were not. Topped with whipped, airy butter, the pancakes were so big that they even had their own plate. They were fluffy and slightly spongy with more of a pleasant bready flavor than the sweetness I expected. I wish they'd come with a bit more butter, though. The sausages were quite small — I could easily have eaten both of them in one generous bite. They were tasty, with a good savory profile, albeit a bit too salty for me. As for the eggs, they were cooked perfectly, with a bit of browning on the whites but with the unbroken yolks still partially runny. I paid under $10 for my meal at Denny's — and that's with a 22% tip The Everyday Value Slam meal at Denny's was priced at $6.99. The tax was $0.62, and I tapped for a 22% tip for a total price of $9.28. I doubt I could've sourced the ingredients to make the breakfast at home for less than that. The satisfying meal felt so well-priced that I knew I would return to Denny's even if IHOP blew me away. The food at IHOP felt completely on par with Denny's, though the pancakes were smaller The day after I ate at the Denny's in Queens, I went to an IHOP in Long Island on a weekday morning. I got there at about 6:20 a.m. and was seated alongside four or five other tables of guests. Once again, I wanted the cheapest meal, the same one I'd had at Denny's: two pancakes, two eggs cooked over medium, and two sausages. Once served, I was surprised to find all of my food nestled onto one plate. At Denny's, the pancakes were large enough to merit their own. I was surprised that the pancakes at the International House of Pancakes were markedly smaller than the pair I'd been served the morning before. The good news was that the sausage links appeared to be at least 40% larger than those I'd received at Denny's. IHOP's pancakes were sweeter than those from Denny's and were served with twice as much fluffy butter. I appreciated the generous portion of butter, though I slightly preferred the taste of Denny's pancakes since I'm not much of a fan of sweet breakfast foods. That's a totally subjective thing — many people would surely hold the opposite opinion. The eggs at IHOP were also cooked perfectly over medium. The long, narrow sausage links didn't taste nearly as salty as the ones at Denny's. I was charged $15.20 for my IHOP breakfast — before tip Coming on the heels of my Denny's dining experience, I was genuinely shocked to be handed a $15 check covering two eggs, two pancakes, and two sausage links. I added $3 for a 20% tip, so the entire affair cost me $18.20. This means my meal at IHOP was almost twice as expensive as the breakfast from Denny's, despite the two being almost identical. In terms of value, Denny's was my clear winner — but my IHOP meal could've been half the price if I'd dined later In terms of food, the meals at IHOP and Denny's were very comparable and almost a perfect match. Price-wise? Not so much. The breakfast from Denny's was so cheap it almost felt like I was getting away with something — while the same meal at IHOP was so expensive (relatively speaking) that I almost felt like I was being swindled. My feelings were further complicated when I realized this meal is part of IHOP's House Faves deal, which runs on weekdays from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. With it, popular combos at the chain cost just $6 or $7. In fact, I ordered a meal almost identical to this one for $7 when reviewing the deals at this very location a few months ago. So, had I arrived 40 minutes later, I would've paid half the price for my IHOP breakfast. At certain times, I expect to pay a premium for food — the room-service cheeseburger at a five-star hotel, beer at a baseball game, or even popcorn at Disney World. In those instances with limited choices or added convenience, elevated costs feel acceptable to me. However, it's frustrating to know how much less the chain could've charged me if I'd eaten during what I'd argue are more popular dining hours. In terms of just taste and quality, I can't say I prefer one chain over the other. Denny's had smaller sausages but bigger pancakes. My eggs at both chains were cooked perfectly, and I enjoyed all that I ate. However, if I'm planning to get a basic breakfast before 7 a.m., my money will go much further at Denny's.

Major Change Is Coming For One Of WWE's Biggest Stars
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. After more than a decade with the same iconic music, WWE superstar Becky Lynch is reportedly set to get a brand new entrance theme. A new report has revealed details of the new song, which could debut as soon as tonight at SummerSlam. The reigning Women's Intercontinental Champion has used her current theme, "Celtic Invasion," since her days in NXT. The song has been the soundtrack to her entire main roster journey. A New Anthem For "The Man" According to a new report from Fightful Select, a new entrance theme for Lynch could be debuting imminently. The report states that the pop-punk band The Wonder Years created the new song for her several months ago. The new theme will reportedly feature lyrics and have a "The Man Has Come Around" soundbite inserted into the intro. This would be a significant change for one of WWE's top stars. The Power Of The Entrance Theme In professional wrestling, a superstar's entrance music is a crucial part of their identity. A great theme song can define a character, energize a crowd, and become synonymous with a wrestler's biggest moments. Iconic themes like "Stone Cold" Steve Austin's glass shatter or The Undertaker's gong are as legendary as the performers themselves. The WWE logo is seen on the front of the WWE wrestling world headquarters on January 28, 2024 in Stamford, Connecticut.

The WWE logo is seen on the front of the WWE wrestling world headquarters on January 28, 2024 in Stamford, Connecticut. WWE founder Vince McMahon resigned from the WWE and its parent company TKO as executive chairman and its board of directors following allegations of sexual assault made public in a lawsuit in Connecticut. A former employee Janel Grant accused McMahon, 78, of sexual assault and sexually trafficking her. MoreBecky Lynch's "Celtic Invasion" has been the soundtrack to her transformation from the "Lass Kicker" to "The Man" and all of her historic championship victories, including the main event of WrestleMania 35. A new theme would signal the beginning of a new era for her character. More news: WWE Superstar Announces Retirement Match Bypassing Def Rebel The news that an outside band created the theme is also significant. For the last several years, WWE's in-house music team, Def Rebel, has produced the vast majority of superstar themes. The group has received widespread criticism from many fans who find their music to be generic and less memorable than the work of previous composers like Jim Johnston and CFO$. It was reported several months ago that WWE was looking to work with more mainstream artists. Lynch, a top-tier star, being able to "bypass" the in-house team to work with a popular band like The Wonder Years is a major sign that this new strategy is being put into action. Fans should listen closely tonight when Becky Lynch makes her entrance for her title defense against Lyra Valkyria at SummerSlam. More WWE News: For more on WWE, head to Newsweek Sports.
