In particular, investors last week were worried about the first round of elections in France, scheduled April 22, where Socialist party presidential front-runner François Hollande could score important gains. Some momentum investors in particular wanted to get out of way of any losses that might come next week on electoral results unfriendly to capital markets.
On the domestic front, the first-quarter earnings results seen so far are as expected, for the most part. Second-quarter U.S. economic data continue to be less positive than that seen in the first quarter.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 1.4%, or 180 points, to 13,029.26, for the first weekly gain in three weeks. The Standard & Poor's 500 index gained 8.27 points this week, or 0.60%, to 1378.53. Bucking the trend, and hurt by Apple's 5.3% drop, the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite drooped 0.36% to 300.

These are names being "rented" by momentum funds, but they are getting skittish ahead of the elections and earnings results, traders say.
"The French elections will be closely watched," says Timothy Ghriskey, chief investment officer at Solaris Asset Management, "and a big influence was Apple," which is reporting first-quarter earnings Tuesday.
Apple has shown two weeks of relative underperformance, which is unusual for this stock.
The big event for markets over the next four weeks or so will be the giant Facebook initial public offering, which will probably come about mid-May, he Ghriskey says. It's likely to be a huge IPO where the value and demand will be closely watched by market participants. The Facebook roadshow is likely to get under way soon, and if the IPO goes well, it could give a lift to the market as a whole, he says.

Perhaps it's because Staples sells paper, pens, printers and other unglamorous office products and furniture. Another reason, however, could be that Staples' own online sales are already at about 40% of the total, says Keith Goddard, president of Capital Advisors.
Goddard calls the company a "little Amazon," with about $11 billion in Internet sales out of its $25 billion total. That puts Staples second in total online sales to the Seattle-based powerhouse.
Despite that, Staples' stock has been wildly outperformed by Amazon, and the Framingham, Mass.-based paper pusher gets nothing like Amazon's expansive price-to-earnings ratio. Staples stock is down 22% from a year ago, compared with a broad-market rise of 5% over the same period, and off 38% over the past five years, where Amazon is up over 200%.
Though it doesn't get the negative headlines, investors and Wall Street sometimes lump the stock in with Best Buy, says Peter Baughan, co-manager of the Harding-Loevner Global Equity Strategy Fund. Among sell-side analysts, for example, there are more Sells and Holds than Buy ratings. Yet its business is much more stable than the stock suggests, he adds.
Goddard agrees, saying Staples' shares have reached a point where it's become an interesting proposition.
Staples can sustain earnings-per-share growth in the high-single-digit or low-double-digit percentages, and it has nearly a 3% dividend and a double-digit return on capital, says Goddard. His firm has been buying Staples shares recently.
Those are all good things for a stock trading at a P/E of 10. But, Goddard points out, Staples also is doing something Best Buy and Circuit City weren't, namely taking share. Staples' market share has risen to 57%, from 38% in 2002, compared with market-share losses by competitors OfficeMax (OMX) and Office Depot ODP -1.1928429423459244% Office Depot Inc. U.S.: Nasdaq USD4.97 -0.06 -1.1928429423459244% /Date(1493413200711-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 3027521 AFTER HOURS USD4.97 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : P/E Ratio 7.202898550724638 Market Cap 2791330734.21486 Dividend Yield 2.0120724346076457% Rev. per Employee 290026 More quote details and news » (ODP). Moreover, unlike Best Buy, Staples' EPS, $1.42 in the January-ended fiscal 2012, has returned to levels that were seen before the 2008-2009 financial turmoil.
At $15.66, Staples trades at 10.5 times consensus analyst EPS estimates of $1.50 for fiscal 2013, and 9.6 times the $1.63 estimated for fiscal 2014. By comparison, Best Buy trades at six times fiscal 2013 estimates, and Amazon at 145 times. That's right, 145 times. On other valuation metrics, such as enterprise value (market cap plus net debt) to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (Ebitda), Staples is close to all-time lows.
Staples also has about $1.80 per share in cash and is paying down its debt and buying back stock, Baughnan says. There's a low bar for Staples to surprise investors, and when it does fly over it, the stock will react, he adds. The Harding-Loevner fund manager thinks the stock is worth $22.
Staples isn't Amazon, of course, and never will be. An Amazonian P/E isn't justified. But it's also not Best Buy. Staples' solidly profitable results for the past five years—again unlike Best Buy—would indicate at least that the Staples premium to the latter's P/E of six should probably be a little higher, as the bullish fund managers suggest.
NATURAL GAS IS OVER. FOREVER. Don't ever buy any producer of the stuff. Don't buy the commodity itself, either. At less than $2 per mm/BTU (one million British Thermal Units), it is at decade lows, and because there is so much of it found lately in the U.S., you shouldn't think it will ever go higher. Right?
Not so fast.
When commodity prices reach extremes—and they definitely have with natural gas—it is important to step back and look at the long-term natural reaction of producers and what that will mean for the price a couple of years out.
First, the extremes. The long-term average ratio of the price of oil to that of natural gas is about nine, points out John LaForge, commodity strategist for Ned Davis Research.
Using an average of the forward 12-month futures prices of gas, about $2.62 per mm/BTU, compared with crude oil at about $105 per barrel, that ratio has skyrocketed in recent months to 40 to 1.
If you choose to use the current spot price of natural gas, the ratio is "insane," LaForge says, more than 50 to 1. "There is no historical precedent for this," he adds.
For anyone who hasn't been reading the papers, the U.S. is basically awash in natural gas, thanks to heightened exploration and the use of new fracking technology.
However, the worm usually turns and will eventually, even for natural gas. Don't believe anyone who tells you the exact date, but there are forces at work that will push gas prices higher in the next two or three years.
For one thing, the drilling-rig count has dropped sharply, and energy producers have reacted to low prices, as might be expected, by ratcheting back exploration.
Secondly, last Tuesday Cheniere Energy LNG -0.11013215859030837% Cheniere Energy Inc. U.S.: NYSE MKT USD45.35 -0.05 -0.11013215859030837% /Date(1493413229809-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 1257634 AFTER HOURS USD45.35 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : P/E Ratio N/A Market Cap 10786950664.7339 Dividend Yield N/A Rev. per Employee 1412340 More quote details and news » (LNG) received federal approval to build the first major liquefied natural-gas export facility in the continental U.S. at Sabine Pass, La. Even if ground were broken tomorrow, there's likely to be a two-to-three-year span before liquefied gas goes out the U.S. door. And Cheniere needs to find several billions in financing first.
But here's the thing. LNG prices outside the U.S. are multiples of the domestic price, five to eight times as high per mm/BTU in some places. So more export facilities will be built, and demand for U.S. LNG will rise.
At full capacity, Sabine Pass alone, says LaForge, could remove two weeks' worth of supply from U.S. shores.
"Two or three years from now that will look like a seminal event for natural-gas prices," says LaForge. It's just one facility, but it's starting the gas-export process.
LaForge thinks gas will probably skid along these lows for a while, because the supply remains much higher than demand, even if drilling has dropped significantly.
Patient investors, says Harry Rady, who runs Rady Asset Management, can play an eventual increase in natural-gas prices with a basket of energy producers that are leveraged more to gas than oil. Many of them are down 30% and more from recent highs.
For this reason, he's bought small-caps like Comstock Resources CRK -1.4656144306651635% Comstock Resources Inc. U.S.: NYSE USD8.74 -0.13 -1.4656144306651635% /Date(1493413320163-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 124943 P/E Ratio N/A Market Cap 134394975.213547 Dividend Yield N/A Rev. per Employee 1501760 More quote details and news » (CRK), down 50%, and Carrizo Oil & Gas CRZO -2.3300970873786406% Carrizo Oil & Gas Inc.

These stocks have been disproportionately punished because of their exposure to gas, so you effectively are getting their crude-oil assets at a discount. Moreover, just a whiff of higher gas prices will send them skyward, he says.

It's not that hard of a puzzle to solve.
The Patriots reportedly signed cornerback Stephon Gilmore to a five-year, $65 million deal out of nowhere on Thursday morning, the day free agency officially began. The Patriots already have one of the best cornerbacks in the NFL in Malcolm Butler, so why would the Patriots feel the need to do such a thing?
Because the Patriots likely didn't see themselves being able to sign Butler long-term and they wanted to make sure they have a cornerback locked up for the years to come.
It's been widely reported the Patriots have been trying to sign Butler to a long-term extension since last offseason. Obviously, a new deal hasn't been reached and Butler was placed with a first-round tender meaning he will make $3.91 million in 2017. The Patriots likely reached a breaking point on a new contract with him and his representatives this week and made the decision to sign Gilmore.
Certainly the move that would have made more sense would have been to sign Butler to an extension similar to the deal they gave Gilmore, but the thought is Butler and his agent were seeking more than the $13 million per year the Patriots gave Gilmore, and they were not willing to budge.
On The Ringer, former Patriots executive Mike Lombardi wrote Butler is "looking for the moon and then some" with his next contract, so it can be seen why the Patriots did what they did.
It's worth noting Butler's agent, Derek Simpson, isn't a typical agent for a player like Butler. Simpson is an attorney in Huntsville, Alabama and Butler was his first ever player to earn an NFL job. This is Simpson's first real big contract he's ever negotiated, and perhaps it isn't going as planned.
Based off Gilmore's deal, it's clear Butler wanted more than $13 million a year, which seems a bit excessive. Patrick Peterson and Richard Sherman are on the books for just over $13 million in 2017. Is Butler worth more than them? Probably not. Also, Butler made $600,000 this past year. How can a player expect to go from less than a million to over $13 million?
Butler certainly deserves way more than his $3.91 million salary this season, but more in the range of $10 or so million. It can now be seen why the reports were coming out over the past year of just how far off Butler and the Patriots were.
As Thursday went on, there became a perception of Butler seeking a lot more money maybe than he actually deserves and him being to blame, not the Patriots. So Thursday night, Simpson tried to calm the situation down by speaking with ESPN's Mike Reiss.
"The Patriots haven't approached Malcolm about his contract since last year, and anything that says he keeps asking for the moon is completely false," Simpson said.
It's interesting it took until 7:30 p.m. for this quote to come from Simpson. Also, the claim the Patriots haven't spoken to him this year about a new deal seems to be a bit off, but maybe that's another indication of just how far apart the two sides are. While it was an attempt to change the perception of his client, the Gilmore signing did all the talking.
Butler himself also gave a quote to ESPN's Josina Anderson.
"I'm just going with the flow," Butler said. "I can't tell the future. I'm just a CB. I'm not a GM."
So, what is next for the 27-year-old?
First off, he needs to sign his first-round tender which is for $3.9 million. Nothing can be done until he does that. If he doesn't want to sign the tender and holds out, he doesn't get the year of service time, which doesn't do him any good in the long-run. Same thing goes for if he signs the tender and then holds out.
He could sign the tender and play the season, but he's likely not feeling all too good about the organization and his future with it. With the Patriots already committing $13 million a year for Gilmore, Butler is not signing a long-term deal for a penny less, and would the Patriots really pay $26 million for two cornerbacks? Definitely not. Butler was frustrated with only making $600,000 this past year, so he's going to be even more frustrated this season, and maybe it would start to impact his play. That could potentially impact his value next offseason when he becomes an unrestricted free agent.
Unfortunately for Butler, he has zero leverage in this given he's a restricted free agent.
Another scenario, which has been reported, is the Patriots could trade him.
New England is considering trading him to the Saints in exchange for wide receiver Brandin Cooks, who it has shown an interest in since last weekend. It likely would be more than a straight swap with perhaps the teams swapping picks as the Patriots would get the Saints' second-round pick (No. 42 overall) and the Saints would get the Patriots' first-round pick (No. 32 overall).
For this to happen, Butler would need to sign his tender, but then could negotiate a long-term deal with the Saints. New Orleans is looking to rebuild its poor defense and could build it around Butler, thus giving him a contract he wants. Also, it's closer to his home in Alabama.
This isn't a good look for the Patriots in terms being loyal to their players by giving Gilmore the largest contact ever to a Patriots defensive player, but they can only budge so much on things. Unrealistic demands just aren't going to happen in New England.
Thursday showed just how quickly things can change in the NFL, as in a matter of a few hours the Patriots went from having Butler as their cornerback of the future to now Gilmore.
We had an impromptu visit from Peter King from SI / MMQB to our Fenway Studios and decided to talk some NFL and Patriots with him.

It's extraordinarily arrogant to assume that just because I don't sign up to your ideology, that I "haven't given it a chance". You don't know what other people are thinking.
Most atheists come from religious backgrounds of various kinds, and can therefore demonstrate that you are the one who has never dropped your ideology.

No one disbelieves the existence of God except the person to whom God's existence is not convenient… there are no atheists so thoroughly sure of their unbelief as to be willing to die a martyr's death for it. – Herman Bavinck
Given Tumblr's formatting, I couldn't reblog this directly, but I saw this quote over at @revelation19's blog. This quote has hidden misconceptions about atheists. They are, however, implied strongly enough, so we can draw them out and make them more explicit.
For starters, there's the misconception that a) atheists enjoy sinning or choose non-belief because it allows them, at the very least, the semblance of avoiding culpability and accountability; or b) atheists suppress the truth of god in their unrighteousness, which is nothing more than a bigoted way of restating the previous statement. This line of thinking is problematic because Christians conveniently forget that we also lack belief in every other god. Thus, without justification, a Muslim could assert that Christians don't believe in their god because his existence inconveniences them. A Hindu can say the same thing. It's an assertion without qualification and can thus be dismissed.
The second half of the quote is the most inept part. Why should I be willing to die a martyr's death for atheism? The Christian has once again conveniently forgotten that we have no belief in an afterlife. To the contrary, we maintain that this is the only life we will ever have the privilege of living. We therefore would not surrender it due to ideological or political views.
On top of that, it is implied that dying a martyr's death for anything implies the truth of what the martyr died for. People have died for Jesus; people have died for Allah; people have died for Buddha; people have died for Marx. Richard Carrier puts it succinctly:
[T]he fact that believers are willing to die for their belief does not confirm their belief is true, since there have been willing martyrs for Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, Marxism, even paganism, and many other religions and ideologies throughout history. In the right social conditions, such martyrdom doesn't even slow recruitment because such willingness to die is normal for such movements, not unusual. As W.H.C. Frend says of that time, "there was a living pagan tradition of self-sacrifice for a cause, a preparedness if necessary to defy an unjust rule, that existed alongside the developing Christian concept of martyrdom inherited from Judaism." Christian martyrdom particularly made sense from a cultural and sociological perspective. Many sociologists studying world martyrdom movements have found they have a common social underpinning throughout history, from aboriginal movements in the New World to Islamic movements in the Middle East. For example, Alan Segal says that in every well-documented case a widespread inclination to martyrdom "is an oblique attack by the powerless against the power of oppressors," in effect "canceling the power of an oppressor through moral claims to higher ground and to a resolute claim to the afterlife, as the better" and only "permanent" reward. "From modern examples," Segal concludes, "we can see that what produces martyrdom," besides the corresponding "exaltation of the afterlife," is "a colonial and imperial situation, a conquering power, and a subject people whose religion does not easily account for the conquest." Some of these subjects are "predisposed to understand events in a religious context," and are suffering from some "political or economic" deprivation, or even social or cultural deprivation (as when the most heartfelt morals of the subgroup are not recognized or realized by the dominating power structure).
Richard Carrier as quoted in Loftus, John W. "Christianity's Success Was Not Incredible." The End of Christianity. Amherst, N.Y.: Prometheus, 2011. 64-65. Print.
The fact that an atheist is unwilling to die for the sake of non-belief isn't a mark against atheism. It definitely doesn't imply that lacking belief in gods is a demonstrably false position. If that were the case, given Carrier's quote, Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, Marxism, and any religion or ideology people have died for are equally and incontrovertibly true.
Another point that can be made is that atheists are opposed to the rampant extremism found in the major world religions. Martyrdom is a symptom of such extremism and is therefore something we simply wouldn't adopt. We don't think it's necessary to die for one's beliefs or lack thereof. We think it more productive to sit at a table to discuss the (de)merits of the views in question. Sacrificing a life for sake of a favored view is means to draw attention to said view or a failed attempt to prove the presumed truth of a given view. For the religious, martyrdom is driven by the belief that the martyr will be eternally rewarded for sacrificing her terrestrial life. Atheists lack belief in such promise makers and therefore cannot believe in such promises. Martyrdom serves us no purpose.
Ultimately, if god existed, his existence wouldn't inconvenience me. I've gone on record many times and stated that even if he existed, I wouldn't worship him. He's an assailable being in many ways similar to human beings and is therefore unworthy of obeisance. I have many times stood in agreement with Stoics and other Greek philosophers who have stated that good and just deities wouldn't require my worship or punish me for denying them veneration. I cannot fathom an ego so fragile that it would require that of me, that it would corner me with an ultimatum: obey me or be cast out from my presence for all eternity. This quote is the height of Christian hubris and ineptitude, and serves as nothing more than another failed attempt to poison the well and mischaracterize what atheists actually stand for.
(using plain historical and scientific evidence, logic and common sense.)
He starts with a simple historical timeline of religion, which started some 40.000 years before Jesus ever showed up (also way before the universe even existed, according to some bronze age belief systems).
Judaism is nothing more than Ideas borrowed from other cultures and religions like Zoroastrianism with some things added here and there for convenience. Christianity emerged from Judaism, mixed with ideas from other local religions/traditions, and Islam is basically plagiarized from Judaism and Christianity…
IMHO, a pretty watertight case for the idea that ALL religions are man made.
Richard Carrier is a bad-ass. This lecture is one of my favorites. Highly recommended for philosophy or science nerds.
this is so interesting like wow
"Are Christians Delusional?" Speech by Dr. Richard Carrier at Skepticon 3.
Lots of information and very very interesting. Highly recommend.
Brilliant, funny, intelligent, skilled speaker.
Dr. Richard Carrier explaining how Christianity could have developed without a historical Jesus. Very interesting. The general idea is that Jesus and his teachings were added to make Judaism accessible to gentiles. Without the necessary blood sacrifices, circumcision, and clothing / dietary restrictions they would be able to expand the religion more easily. I think this is likely the reality of what happened.
The quest for a historical Jesus has failed spectacularly. Several times. Historians now even count the number of times. With the latest quest (numbered "the third") and its introduction of criteria, the concept of Jesus we're supposed to believe existed is actually getting more confused and uncertain the more scholars study it, rather than the other way around. Progress is supposed to increase knowledge and consensus and sharpen the picture of what happened (or what we don't know), not the reverse. Instead, Jesus scholars continue multiplying contradictory pictures of Jesus, rather than narrowing them down and increasing their clarity – or at least reaching a consensus on the scale and scope of our uncertainty or ignorance. More importantly, the many contradictory versions of Jesus now confidently touted by different Jesus scholars are all so very plausible – yet not all can be true. In fact, as only one can be (and that at most), almost all must be false. So the establishment of this kind of "strong plausibility" has been decisively proved not to be a reliable indicator of the truth. Yet Jesus scholars keep treating it as if it were. This has left a confused mass of disparate opinions, vast libraries of theories and interpretations essentially impossible to keep up with, and no real efforts at improving or criticizing the worst and gathering the best into any sort of coherent, consensus view of what actually happened at the dawn of Christianity, or even during its first two hundred years.
I won't recount the whole history of historical Jesus research here, as that has been done to death already. Indeed, accounts of the many "quests" for the historical Jesus and their failure are legion, each with their own extensive bibliography. Just to pick one out of a hat, Mark Strauss summarizes, in despair, the many Jesuses different scholars have "discovered" in the evidence recently. Jesus the Jewish Cynic Sage. Jesus the Rabbinical Holy Man (or Devoted Pharisee, or Heretical Essene, or any of a dozen other contradictory things). Jesus the Political Revolutionary or Zealot Activist. Jesus the Apocalyptic Prophet. And Jesus the Messianic Pretender (or even, as some still argue, Actual Messiah). And that's not even a complete list. We also have Jesus the Folk Wizard (championed most famously by Morton Smith in Jesus the Magician, and most recently by Robert Conner in Magic in the New Testament). Jesus the Mystic and "Child of Sophia" (championed by Elisabeth Schussler Fiorenza and John Shelby Spong). Jesus the Nonviolent Social Reformer (championed by Bruce Malina and others). Or even Jesus the Actual Davidic Heir and Founder of a Royal Dynasty (most effectively argued in The Jesus Dynasty by James Tabor, who also sees Jesus as a kind of ancient David Koresh, someone who delusionally, and suicidally, believed he was sent by God and charismatically gathered followers; not surprising, as Tabor is also a Koresh expert, having been an FBI consultant during the siege of Waco, and subsequently authoring Why Waco?). There are even recent versions of Jesus that place him in a different historical place and time, arguing the Gospels were mistaken on when and where Jesus actually lived and taught. Or that conclude astonishing things like that he arranged his own execution to effect a ritual sacrifice to magically cleanse the land. We even get confused attempts to make Jesus everything at once (or half of everything at once, since most theories are too contradictory to reconcile), for instance insisting we should understand him to have been "a prophet in the tradition of Israel's prophetic figures…a teacher and rabbi, or subversive pedagogue of the oppressed…a traditional healer and exorcist, a shamanistic figure…[and] a reputational leader who brokers the justice of Yahweh's covenant and coming reign," whatever that means.
This still isn't even a complete list. As Helmut Koester concluded after his own survey, "The vast variety of interpretations of the historical Jesus that the current quest has proposed is bewildering." James Charlesworth concurs, concluding that "what had been perceived to be a developing consensus in the 1980s has collapsed into a chaos of opinions." The fact that almost no one agrees with anyone else should compel all Jesus scholars to deeply question whether their certainty in their own theory is really even warranted, since everyone else is just as certain, and yet they should all be fully competent to arrive at a sound conclusion from the evidence. Obviously something is fundamentally wrong with the methods of the entire community. Which means you cannot claim to be a part of that community and not accept that there must be something fundamentally wrong with your own methods. Indeed, some critics argue the methods now employed in the field succeed no better than divination by Tarot Card reading – because scholars see whatever they want to see and become totally convinced their interpretation is right, when instead they should see this very fact as a powerful reason to doubt the validity of their methods in the first place.

If a show ran till 11 PM when was the final press? It would have been for the next days morning paper.I believe critics pretty much, have always seen the show before opening night and have their reviews written. They were released after the curtain came down with the first morning publication (which in olden days) were typeset and printed the night of the Opening. There might have been a few who did the opening night thing but the papers would not have been available till the wee hours.<

HELL, the movie has Buster Keaton, Cecil B DeMille and Hedda Hopper making cameos in it. You can't beat that! Wasn't particularly fond of the musical first time around (Saw Betty Buckley in the role). I have heard that this is somewhat of a stripped down version and that Glen Close was worth the price of admission. I will probably just rent the movie.
Just checked. Previews start March 1, opens on the 12th.
Yeah John Douglas Thompson, when asked awhile back to reprise the role, sort of said "Been there done that." I have been too busy Dusting off, repairing and rebuilding to sit in on a rehearsal. However from what I am hearing, Mr Abili is going to knock it out of the park as well.
Irish Rep is remounting the Emperor Jones by Eugene O'Neil. I believe previews begin the first or second week of March. I am very proud of this piece! Sort of a self promo here. Shill if you will. Got to design all the apparitions and Hunts. It is actually more revelevant in todays political clime then when we put it up 8 years ago! Imagine, A self proclaimed Emperor's slow descent into madness.

I may be mistaken, I haven't seen the movie in ages, but isn't Elton John singing about Tommy being the Pin Ball Wizard?

Came in once for lunch and been back every dqay since - best place to eat on London Rd without a doubt.
I've eaten here about seven times and I can't help but come back for more...Every time the food is fresh, tasty and different. I absolutely love the lunch mezze. There's nothing as tasty and delicious in London Road or the whole of Brighton. They serve a great selection of delicious mediterranean pulses, grains and food stuffs with an amazing range of delicious flavours catering to meat eaters, vegans and vegetarians.And it's really reasonable too!Highly recommended.
I'm really happy to have found this place. You can get an amazing mezze box with nine different items, all delicious and all freshly made in the deli, for around £3.50! They also have a cabinet of colourful cakes, lokum and baklava that's as good as anything I've had before (the baklava with coca in it is fantastic), as well as fresh juices and loose leaf teas. Very much recommended.
This is, if not the best, certainly one of the best places in Brighton and Hove. The food is very reasonably priced, but there is no compromise on ingredients and freshness, plus the portions are very generous. The staff are very friendly and you can tell that everything is fresh because you can see them making it.All of the food is beautifully presented and tastes fabulous, my personal favourite is the burek, but everything I've tried has been fantastic.
This has to be the best deli in Brighton. The food is absolutely delicious and the cakes are fantastic. The food is organic and freshly prepared every day and there is always something new to try. I go here on a regular basis as the owners are so friendly and welcoming and happily sit and chat over a coffee. The deli has seating upstairs and outside if you wanted to eat in or you can have the food prepared to take away. The prices are very reasonable for what you get. If you haven't been there yet GO you will not be disappointed.

ALLEN, Texas (CBSDFW.COM/AP) – Repair work on the $60 million Allen Eagle Stadium is scheduled to start this week.
Work is expected to begin Tuesday with fixes to the main scoreboard that include drilling new piers and installing new supports for it.
The cost for repairs on phase one will be $279,994.
The school district received a check in that amount from PBK Architects. Pogue Construction will complete the scoreboard repairs for phase one.
"With the payment from PBK, no bond funds will be used for the first phase," according to Dr. Hindt. "Both PBK and Pogue have committed to getting the stadium up and running at no cost to the district. The payment from PBK demonstrates that commitment."
Allen school officials closed the stadium this year after structural cracks and other problems were found.
The high school stadium was built just two years ago and seats 18,000 people.
Forensic engineers reported finding extensive design flaws, which Superintendent Lance Hindt has called "engineering failures."
Hindt says the architects that designed the stadium and a construction firm that built the arena are working to fix the problems. He says they're making the repairs at no cost to the district.
School district officials want to reopen the stadium by May 2015.
