Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Income Taxes The provision for income taxes was $11.5 million and $10.4 million for the three quarters ended September 24, 2014 and September 25, 2013, respectively. For the 2014 period, the difference in the overall effective rate from the U.S. Statutory rate was primarily due to the generation of employment tax credits and two discrete tax items. State job tax credits of $0.3 million were claimed during 2014 for current year’s hiring activity. State job tax credits of $0.5 million were also claimed during the 2014 period resulting from the prior year's hiring activity. In addition, share-based compensation adjustments resulted in an out-of-period tax benefit of $0.5 million. We do not believe the out-of-period adjustment was material to any prior or current year financial statements or on earnings trends. For the 2013 period, the difference in the overall effective rate from the U.S. Statutory rate was due to state and foreign taxes, employment tax credits, and discrete tax items. The passage of the American Tax Payer Relief Act of 2012 resulted in deferred tax benefits of $0.3 million related to work opportunity credits generated in 2012, which were allowed retroactively during 2013. In addition, state jobs tax credits of $0.8 million were claimed during the 2013 period resulting from the prior year's hiring activity. A valuation allowance of $0.5 million was recorded against certain state jobs tax credits during the 2013 period related to changes in California law enacted during the period.
