The most famous horse trainer from a bygone Omaha era isn't about to let bygones be bygones.
Jack Van Berg, a national horse racing Hall of Fame member who will be in town this weekend to sign copies of his new biography, is still furious that the Ak-Sar-Ben track was closed and dismantled.
"It's terrible," Jack said Wednesday. "I never run into anybody in Omaha who isn't sick that they tore Ak-Sar-Ben down. It could have been saved if it got slot machines."
Once one of the nation's top tracks, Ak saw a drastic drop in attendance and betting from competition of Iowa dog racing, casinos, lotteries and other forms of gambling, and it closed in 1995.
Today the area is redeveloped as a retail, residential, academic and entertainment center, though racing fans lament the track's demise.
Van Berg, born and raised in Columbus, Neb., led Ak trainers in victories for two decades. He once led the nation in career victories and narrowly missed the ultimate — the Triple Crown.
Until I caught up with him by phone this week from California, I hadn't spoken with Jack in a few years. I well remember, though, fascinating interviews at Ak-Sar-Ben and at the Aqueduct Racetrack in New York.
The latter is where he prepared his greatest Thoroughbred — Kentucky Derby and Preakness winner Alysheba — to run in the 1987 Belmont Stakes, the final jewel in the crown.
The tree-shaded barn area features streets named for Triple Crown winners, such as Secretariat Avenue and Omaha Road. (Omaha won the crown in 1935.) Alysheba, Jack said, was ready.
"He has that air about him that I can't describe," the legendary trainer told me back then. "I got kicked out of college, so I don't know any of them big words. Anyway, he has the look, he has the beautiful stride, he has the beautiful disposition. He has everything going for him to get the job done."
Alysheba didn't quite get the job done, finishing fourth. But that year was a high point for Jack.
Now the life and career of Jack Van Berg, a descendant of Swedish immigrants to Nebraska, is told in 300-plus pages with lots of photos.
Starting at noon Saturday, he and his biographer, Omaha native Chris Kotulak, will meet fans at the Horsemen's Park track, 63rd and Q Streets, and sign autographs of "Jack, From Grit to Glory." (The cost is $20 at the track or at jackfromgrittoglory.com.)
The book covers Van Berg's "hardship, heartache and heartfelt joy."
It includes his championships, his "virtually nonexistent family life," his testimony before Congress and his financial woes related to a ranch in California.
Two days before the '87 Belmont Stakes, Jack announced a fateful decision: moving his racing headquarters from Kentucky to California, which led to a financial nightmare. He blames it on partners and their lawyers and said he remains in debt from the ranch venture.
"That ruined my life," he said this week. "I was on top of the world."
Kotulak said he wanted to recount Van Berg's life and career as completely as possible, and Jack cooperated.
"I didn't want it to just be a vanity book telling flowery stories about Jack," Kotulak said. "He was very open. Originally, I would sit in a pickup with him under a palm tree at Hollywood Park (racetrack) in California and turn on the tape recorder."
Jack would get emotional talking about his father, trainer Marion H. Van Berg, whom the son revered.
"He has carried the banner of his father his whole life," the author said. "Jack considered him the greatest teacher and horseman ever. And Jack became a tremendous mentor to many top-flight horsemen."
In the book, Jack apologizes for not being home more often, saying that although he provided well for his family, he was away too much to train horses around the country. Though his children turned out well, he says, he has regrets.
"I'd give back thousands of those wins," he says in the book, "to win back the time I missed and messed up with my family."
|OWH Columnists
|Columnists Michael Kelly, Erin Grace and Matthew Hansen write about people, places and events around Omaha. Read more of their work here.
He kept a frenetic pace. At times he would regularly work at Ak-Sar-Ben from early in the morning, take a United flight at noon to check on horses at a track in Chicago and return to Omaha at night.
Jack, who turns 77 on June 7, asked Kotulak three years ago to write the biography and said he has done an outstanding job.
"A lot of people had approached me to write it," Van Berg said, "but I never felt comfortable with any of them. Chris is from Omaha and kind of grew up on the back stretch of Ak-Sar-Ben."
Now 50, Kotulak was still a teenager when he would ride his bicycle to Ak-Sar-Ben at 4:30 a.m. for a job walking horses and cleaning stalls. He became the track announcer at Fonner Park in Grand Island in 1986, and he later called races at Ak-Sar-Ben and at tracks in Louisiana and California.
He has covered horse racing in England, Australia and Japan as a TV host, analyst and reporter, and today works full-time at the Remington Park racetrack and casino in Oklahoma City.
His book includes Van Berg's 2008 testimony to a congressional committee about what Jack called "chemical warfare on the racetrack."
The trainer called for a ban on equine medications such as steroids. They result in an unnatural increase in young horses' muscle mass, he testified, "and make them heavier than their still-maturing bone structure can often tolerate."
The book includes 37 pages on Alysheba, including the disappointing loss at the Belmont Stakes.
Van Berg had told jockey Chris McCarron that Sheba could "gallop faster than the other horses can run," and to let him go to the front. But the jockey reined him in early, wanting to save him for a stretch run in the mile-and-a-half trip, the longest of the Triple Crown races.
Alysheba, though, got boxed in at the head of the stretch, unable to make a move until it was too late — missing out on a $5�million bonus for the winner of the Triple Crown.
In spite of what Van Berg called "a pitiful ride," he retained the jockey as Alysheba's regular rider.
In the winner's circle after a 1988 race, McCarron said: "Jack, you're right. He can gallop faster than they can run."
Snapped Jack: "You're a year late and five million short."
Van Berg, who said he looks forward to seeing Omaha fans and friends, still trains horses in California.
"I'll retire when they put me in that box," he said. "I've watched too many people retire and just melt away."

How many times have you been using a computer that isn't yours and wishing that you could have access to all of your files? This seems to be a common complaint amongst many of the students I have worked with on projects, papers, etc. What if all those files could be accessed anywhere, even if you didn't have a flash drive or your computer?
Enter Dropbox. Dropbox is a tiny application that you install on your computer. When you install it, you are given a single folder aptly named your "Dropbox." Whatever you put inside that folder will be automatically synced to your online account at dropbox.com and will be able to be downloaded and accessed anywhere there is Internet. However, the real benefit of Dropbox comes when you put most of your files in that one folder. Then, you suddenly have access to every single paper, presentation or photo that you want from any computer.
For me, I dragged my entire documents folder into the new Dropbox one after I installed the app. Since then, having all my documents available anywhere has saved my grade many times over.
The elegance of Dropbox lies in how it handles the syncing between web and computer. Whenever you save a file, Dropbox will immediately sync that version you just saved. However, it will also keep a list of previous revisions you have made to that particular file over time. Mess up your paper and want to go back to the original version? No problem. Log into dropbox.com and restore a previous version.
In short, Dropbox is like having a flash drive with all your files everywhere you go. They even have mobile apps so that you can access your files on-the-go.
Of all the neat uses I've found for Dropbox over the years, the most recent one was having a quick and painless way to transfer photos from my iPhone to my computer. Before, I had to email the pictures, one at a time, and then go and download them onto my desktop. Now, I just launch the Dropbox app on my phone and upload the pictures there. Within seconds, the photos appear in my Dropbox folder on my computer.
I highly encourage you to check out Dropbox; the first time you use it to download that presentation you forgot to bring with you will prove how useful and efficient it really is. Check out this link here for an extra 250MB tacked on to the 2GB free plan. Happy syncing!

107 S Main St, Royal Oak, MI | Directions 4806742.489523 -83.143794
Fri-Sat: 11:30am-12am, Sun: 11:30am-10pm, Mon-Thu: 11:30am-11pm
This place has gone downhill – We used to love Little Tree, so we decided to go there for our 3rd anniversary. Right away we realized they had changed one of our favorite sushi rolls by using fewer ingredients, and a smaller portion. Of course, the price was not lower. We decided to try the entrees as well, and mine (a Phillipine seafood dish) was the worst meal I've ever had in my life. Tasteless and not authentic at all. $62 later (not counting the tip) we decided that we will not be returning to Little Tree in the future. There are plenty of delicious and authentic Pan-Asian restaurants on the East side - do not waste your money on this place!!!
Very unsatisfied – The food was decent but overpriced for what they were serving. The service was TERRIBLE. I am a server and I have never had such a bad experience. The first server that approached us rolled his eyes because we ordered water for the time being before we got a chance to look over the menu. The Server who brought us our drinks took our food order, brought out our food, when we asked for soy sauce he never came with it so we had to go get it off another table, he never came back and checked on us, and we told him we wanted dessert 20 minutes before close and brought us the menu 3 minutes before close, informing us the kitchen was about to close and they couldn't make us dessert. Then after waiting another 15 minutes he finally brought us our check. I will never go there again!
HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE. On 4/2/10 they tried to have me arrested over $5.16. I was unsatisfied with a dish and I refused to pay for it. Not only did the male waiter try to intimidate me, he followed me out to my car and called the police. The manager witnessed the entire incident but did nothing to intervene until the police were called. DO NOT PATRONIZE THIS PLACE.
MY FAVVVVORITE! – I go to little tree at least 3 times per week. It's always really great food and I LOVE the new rolls they just added to the menu.
Also, the bartender Chris is always great for help. Paul, another bartender, is always attentive as well.
going downhill – I usually like Little Tree and I have met friends and family there for sushi many times. However, I had a terrible experience yesterday after not having been there for a couple of months. The sushi rolls were not rolled, the rice was thick and falling apart, the sauce was not in the roll but dabbed on the outside. Additionally, the sushi was tasteless and not appetizing. The worst part is that after having a conversation with the manager I am convinced that I will not be returning as sloppy and nasty sushi seems to be totally acceptable to serve to customers.
Best sushi place in the areaaa – The only place i feel comfortable eating sushi... Def. try the Samuri roll!
Ecellent Food Service – I had the Flying Fish Eggs with Wasabi this is only found in
top notch Japanese Restaurants Cucumber Salad delicate authentic dressing-I read the negative reviews these people should not knock what they don't really understand Michigan Diners are better Critics Of Stale Beer and Greasy Hamburgers HEH heh 236 up, 83 down
Coversational putty, used mainly on IRC to smoothen the flow of chat. Can be used to acknowledge another person's speech, while not actually responding to it. Can also be used as an equivalent of throat-clearing, indicating that you have something to say which will follow afterward.
Awful food, ok sushi – I used to love this place back when it was the only game in town of RO for sushi. Went back recently and had a truly horrible experience. The food was bad and inimaginative, was served almost cold. Thai food, which is so easily obtained at other places was truly awful. There are much better places around for Asian food. We'll never go back!
Good, just not great – Little Tree has good cocktails and decent sushi, but for the price, it should be better. You usually have to wait for a table, which is fine, but the last time we were there the hostess was really young and not the best at her job, which made it a little frustrating. The servers don't always do a good job explaining the special sushi rolls and don't seem very knowledgable about the rest of the menu. I've had a hot fish dish there, which was very good, and many types of sushi. The sushi is okay but they use too much rice in the roll so the ratio of rice to filling is way off. It's pretty expensive, and I would have expected it to be better for the price. Still a pretty fun place though.
One of Our favorite places!! – We have only been here twice, both times we have had a blast!!! My boyfriend has discovered Sushi and loves it! Me- not so much! I usually order Blackend Fish and it has been delicious both times. We sit at the bar and the bartenders are great! Can't wait to go back!!

Expanding Market Access for World Folk Artists
The Santa Fe International Folk Art Market joined the Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) in 2009 and was one of only 100 non-profits to be selected to attend the annual meeting in New York that year.
At the meeting, heads of state, government and business leaders, scholars, and NGO directors worked together to analyze, discuss, and debate possible solutions to urgent global issues. Each participant was asked to take action on one or more issues by making a Commitment to Action to address global challenges in the areas of economic development, global health, education, energy, and climate change.
The Folk Art Market's Commitment
Based on a proven cultural enterprise model, the Market's commitment to action is to expand market access for world folk artists resulting in increased economic independence, dignified and sustainable livelihoods, and the preservation of valuable cultural traditions for 60,370 artists and members of artisan cooperatives and an estimated 600,370 community members.*
The Santa Fe International Folk Art Market commits to work in collaboration with master folk artists from more than 55 countries to create at least one new major international folk art market event, to be launched sometime after 2014, that draws upon the Santa Fe International Folk Art Market's innovative cultural enterprise model, which presents a new paradigm for international development, economic empowerment and poverty alleviation.
In order to provide new markets for the artists' work, the Santa Fe International Folk Art Market will work with strategic partners to connect women's cooperatives and other market-ready producers who have sufficient capacity with appropriate catalogue, internet, and large specialty retailers.
A major component of the commitment is a new, improved training program that will prepare folk artists to succeed in the global marketplace through skill-building, leadership development, financial literacy, enterprise development, the use of new media and the cultivation of human capital through cultural exchange.
Building on our Success
Over the next five years (2009-2014), the Santa Fe International Folk Art Market plans to build its support for folk artists' entrepreneurial success, strengthen the current organizational business model, and increase the scope of its operations through expansion and strategic partnerships. This Commitment to Action at the Clinton Global Initiative will enable the organization to build this model for success and economic empowerment for folk artists worldwide.
This will be a five-year commitment involving multiple stages of development. One of the first tasks will be to form an Artists' Council in order to solicit the input and involvement of key constituents in the development of a new market event and to review new marketing strategies to expand market access. The Santa Fe International Folk Art Market will also add an online artist community to its website to facilitate communication and increase access to resources.
In the first year, Santa Fe International Folk Art Market will also research other potential locations for the new market event and identify strategic partners who will help create and fund it. With the help of a partner who can provide in-kind services, the Santa Fe International Folk Art Market will also create an international business plan to scale up the organization and accommodate growth.
In the subsequent years the Santa Fe International Folk Art Market will continue to pursue plans with partners and artists for the new Market event. In addition, the Santa Fe International Folk Art Market will engage strategic partners to assist in the implementation of other market access strategies. Work during this period will also focus on researching new training resources, developing new modules for the artist training program and identifying partners, both for funding and implementation.
As an integral part of this commitment, the Market will work with partners to optimize profits for folk artists by helping them participate in new markets, and facilitating new market access for their work. The Santa Fe International Folk Art Market will work to improve its training program so that it better meets the needs of artists and helps them advance their business enterprises.

From the Insurance Mailbag
By Bob Mackey, Vice President, Falcon Insurance Agency, Inc.
Every week I receive e-mails and a few telephone calls in response to these "EAA Insurance Tips" articles. Some weeks generate more responses than others, like after the piece titled "Tough Insurance." For some reason, this one generated a lot of conversation, some positive, some not so positive. Frankly, I'm willing to discuss just about anything pertaining to aircraft insurance and the EAA Aircraft Insurance Plan and perhaps clarify something I've written.
For example, I received the following e-mail from an EAA member I'd like to share with you.
About a year ago I finished my Zenith 601XL and now it is insurance renewal time. When I called to discuss my renewal, I asked for a quote to add my 16-year-old son as a student pilot. I was surprised and disappointed with the initial response that my son could not be added as a student pilot because when I started building my plane in 2001 I specifically asked about this and was told that my son would be insurable in this airplane. I guess my biggest issue was that no one told me the insurance industry's position on student pilots in a homebuilt airplane had changed. I felt misinformed and that information was being withheld from me.
The result was this EAA Member had his sights set on teaching his son to fly in his homebuilt and the underwriting guidelines changed on him midstream. Insurance underwriting, by its very nature, changes over time in response to a insurance company's loss experience. Sometimes underwriting gets tighter, making it tougher to insure some risks. Other times you can obtain insurance that may not have been available before when things "loosen up." It's important to periodically communicate with your agent to stay on top of possible insurance underwriting changes.
Anyway, I gathered some additional information on this EAA Member's particular situation and I found out some significant details. First, I learned that this EAA Member was nearing completion of his instructor rating in the Zenith. I also learned that his instructor had accumulated quite a number of flight hours and experience while training this EAA Member. I knew from the insurance underwriter's perspective this would make the risk somewhat more acceptable.
Given this additional information, I took a shot at asking the underwriter to have another look at this situation and perhaps under these unique circumstances allow the Member to add his son to the insurance policy. As it turned out, because the airplane was a good match for pilot training and the EAA Member would be doing the teaching with nearly 200 hours of flight time in the 601XL, plus considering the other instructor's experience, the insurance underwriters approved adding the son as a student pilot. This was an exception to a standing underwriting rule.
The moral to this story is there is always a possibility of an exception to a rule, but the situation will depend greatly on details such as the above example. Another moral is that insurance underwriters do change what they will and will not insure.
At Falcon Insurance Agency with the EAA Aircraft Insurance Plan we deal with every type of situation you can imagine. Sometimes we have a difficult time arranging insurance, however we are always looking for ways to match EAA Members with the right insurance at a competitive price. If you haven't done so already call the EAA Plan at 866-647-4EAA (4322) or visit www.eaainsurance.com and complete an online quote request.
EAA INSURANCE TIPS is a special EAA Member benefit. If you have an insurance related topic you'd like to see addressed or if you have any comments, please email firstname.lastname@example.com. If you need an insurance quotation call 866-647-4EAA (4322).

Pendulum in the dark (continued - part 1, part 2)
We concluded the last installment with a video of the opening of Johann Sebastian Bach's Christmas Oratorio. It was Yuletide alright but there was a broader reason. more>>>
Voluminous, yet mostly melodious, series of essays! Thank you.
I've commented on them here:
Because of their length, and complexity, I did not address all aspects of these fascinating essays.
I propose that a major historical change is occuring in Russia and in its relationship to the West. There are increasing reports that Russians are returning to the Orthodox Church, and that Russian Federal institutions are aligning with the Church in domestic and foreign policy. The Russian government has been active in the support and repair of churches in the Middle East (the US supports the repair of Mosques and jihadis that kill christians). Most recently the West showed its offense at Russian laws against promoting homosexuality to children. In comparison, the West has been captured by a sodomy love fest. Russians consider the US to be perverted and dangerous; I must agree with them. Putin looks and acts like a real stateman. Obama looks and acts like a pathetic empty suit. The more that the media in the West attacks Russia the more I admire the latter. Recently my support for the West in Syria went to zero and switched to Russia as I see the US supporting jihadis raping and killing christians. In another chapter of one of your essays you said we need to save the US, but I can only conclude that it cannot be saved. It's in a super cycle death march; none of us can do anything to save it. It is unconscious of its motives and therefore under the control of the unconscious, and therefore will suffer the deathly embrace and inflation of its unconscious motives which are suicidal.

Other IHT Cases
January 17th, 2010
First Comprehensive Summary of the IHT Merchants Case now available from Grotian Moment Blog
We are pleased to post Judge Ra'id Juhi's comprehensive English summary of the Iraqi High Tribunal's Merchants Case, the third case to be tried by the Tribunal. Little has so far been written about the case and its judgment has not yet been translated into English. Judge Ra'id, who served as the IHT's Chief Investigative Judge for the previous Dujail and Anfal cases, is currently Distinguished Jurist in Residence at Case Western Reserve University School of Law (home of the Grotian Moment Blog). The Merchants Case featured former Iraqi Foreign Minister Tariq Aziz as a defendant, along with Al Hassan al-Majid ("Chemical Ali"), Watban Ibrahim (Saddam's half brother and chief adviser), and Sabawi Ibrahim (Saddam's half brother and former intelligence chief) and several others who faced charges stemming from the 1992 executions of 42 merchants accused by the Ba'athist Regime of being behind a sharp increase in food prices when the country was under strict UN sanctions following the invasion of Kuwait. The presiding judge of the Merchants trial, Raouf Abdul-Rahman, had previously presided over the Dujail trial which was the subject of the award-winning book "Enemy of the State" (St. Martin's Press, 2008) by Grotian Moment Expert Bloggers Michael Scharf and Michael Newton ( see http://www.enemyofthestatebook.com ). In March 2009, the Iraqi High Tribunal issued its verdict in the Merchants case: Taraq Aziz and Al Hassan al-Majid were each found guilty and sentence to fifteen years, while Watban Ibrahim and Sabawi Ibrahim were sentence to death. As described in Judge Ra'id's detailed analysis, the judgment raises a host of novel issues which are sure to be of interest to scholars and practitioners of international criminal law.

12oz. bottle poured into pint glass.
A: Vivid amber hue with a creamy three-finger head that takes eons (in beer-time) to deflate to a 1/4" cap. Tons of lacing left behind as the head dissipates.
S: Some light citrusy hops—grapefruit, little bit of orange and tangerine, but mostly grapefruit. A decent amount of malty sweetness underneath to keep things mild and balanced.
T: A bit of citrus upfront with some lightly floral notes coming though. Hints of maltiness and breadiness balance everything else out to keep the profile very mild while still allowing the hops to shine.
M: Medium body with a crisp carbonation. Finishes dry and goes down super-smooth. This one is the definition of sessionable.
O: Another fantastic brew from Victory. This one is great for hopheads and non-hopheads alike. Well-balanced flavors, a bit of complexity, and wonderful sessionability. A recommended brew, no doubt.

Amber copper color with a thin off-white head with low retention.
Very few times I have felt such intense aroma of papaya in a beer. Also hints of sweet strawberries and white bread.
Bitter flavor with notes of tea bags, oranges, papaya, mango, peaches, caramel, grass, earth and floral and perfumy hops. Dry aftertaste with a long lasting perfumy bitterness.
Medium body with appropriate carbonation and an acid sensation.
A hoppy and earthy APA. Papaya with lemon drops and a handful of hops.

T: Starts off with citrus peel, orange, a touch of mango, then some pine and lemon, followed by a blend of all those flavors in the finish and a hint of malt comes with the aftertaste.
M: Medium bodied and smooth.
O: Really good. Perhaps not the best pale ale, but definitely worth a try and recommended.

A: Bright somewhat clear amber color. The medium sized white head leaves little lacing and just a thin layer of retention. The color is outstanding.
S: Floral hops. Sweet fruity notes. Grains. Overall fresh and cool, but somewhat confined.
T/M: Bitter citric hops, mostly floral. Fruity flavors. Malt sweetness. Grains. Crisp with a creamy feel. The finish is hoppy and little gritty. Flavors linger on the palate.
O: This is a terrific pale ale. Victory continues to impress with every entry I try. The drinkability with all their beers are excellent and this one is no different. The citric hoppy flavors are solid but don't go overboard.

Orange to tan and slightly hazy, decent head and lace.
Aroma and flavor are full of fruity, floral notes with some sweet, caramel malts, and earthy malt notes.
Body is very drinkable with a lightly sweet, lightly malty, somewhat floral hops finish.
While my favorite from Victory remains Prima Pils, this one is definitely a winner too. Good job on this beer, Victory!

12 oz. bottle, with enjoy by date of March 14, 2014 printed on the bottleneck. Another new beer to me from Victory that just arrived in my area. Victory really seems to be cranking them out lately. Expectations are decent.
Poured into a clear balloon snifter.
A - Pours a nice bright coppery orange with excellent clarity, and just over a finger of soapy bubbly off-white head. Some thin strings of lacing. Looks very prime.
S - Very floral hops really shine here. Flowers, grass, lemons, pine, and some crisp leafy earthiness / yeast presence. A touch of grainy pilsner malt sort of smell.
T - Taste follows the nose with the addition of woodsy caramel malt. Grainy pilsner malts, leafy herbal earthiness, floral hops, resinous pine / spruce, and some bitter grapefruit. Nice and all, but I feel like it falls a bit short somewhere.
M - Feel is crisp, clean, and even refreshing. Light grainy malt and some resinous hops chilling on the palate.
Overall, a nice pale ale, but hardly distinguishable from many others in the pack. It is bright and floral with excellent balance, and a solid sipper with a moderately low 5.10% abv. I would have it again if the occasion was right.

This is a beautiful beer no doubt about that. That rich, clear amber that you want your beer to look like. Decent little white head, sticks around a little bit, decent lacing.
Subdued aroma. Decent little hops presence, bready malts, and a mild yeastiness that could be partly my imagination.
The taste is much more pronounced than the aroma. This is a good thing. It starts out with an abrupt bitterness: pine, yes, but a lot of cooled grapefruit and pith as well. The malts are merely strings holding the hops afloat, and it fades into a bitter aftertaste with a kind of generic bitter and crackers aftertaste.
It's a decent brew. Not one I'd necessarily look for again, but I don't regret having tried it?

On tap at Prime 16 in Orange. Pours a translucent amber color with a 1/4 inch of head. Good amount of lacing. Aroma is citrus and spicy hops. Slightly tropical with some biscuity malts. The taste is spicy hops with some orange peel and pine hints. Lots of hop flavor with a good amount of bitterness. Biscuit towards the end with more orange peel bitterness. Light mouthfeel with a fair amount of carbonation. This is one of the hoppier Pale Ales I've had. Overall, lots of flavor that's easy to drink. This Pale Ale is worth seeking out.

A nice friendly beer that lets the malts run the show, intimidating the hops up front, letting in a little spicy bitterness at the end. Tastes very good. Looks very, very pretty. Date it. See where it goes.
Epilogue: It is probably unfair to force a reviewer to write a review longer than 250 words when a beer is this proudly simple.

From a variety pack I recently purchased
Victory Headwaters pale ale
I like this. I like this a lot. As with Hop Devil, it doesn't smell as good as it tastes. A musty smell is forgotten the moment it hits your tongue. This was my favorite among the Victory taster pack I bought. I don't mean to draw a parallel, but it feels and tastes more like a wheat beer. Either way, I enjoyed the heck out of it.

Clarity and the amber glow was exceptional. Carbonated perfectly. Dense tan head laced the glass and retention was there to the last ounce. Against the APA style this is way too hoppy, however, is more in line with an IPA standard. There is certainly a good amount of Citra Hops pushing an incredible citrusy aroma with some piney, lemony notes. The taste is the same as the aroma with a well balanced overall experience. Has a good level of bitterness, certainly more than present in APAs. This is the beer your want to have when an traditional IPA is to big but when you want all the nose and flavors. One of my favorites and is my go to beer when people like hoppy without the extreme bitterness.

A 12oz bottle with no visible BB date. Picked up recently from Trembling Madness in York. Named for the source of the water used in brewing Victory's beers - the Brandywine creek.
Poured into a straight pint glass. A clear orange-amber hue with low carbonation. Yields a large head of creamy white foam that lasts for a few minutes before settling as a patchy surface layer. Some lacing. Aroma of fruity hops, pine, a hint of citrus, sweet caramel malt and earthy yeast. Very nice.
Tastes of spicy aromatic hops and sweet malt, with a crisp bitter finish. Notes of pine, grapefruit, peel, citrus, grass/hay, caramel, barley sugar, earthy yeast and stewed hops. A tangy bitterness envelops the tastebuds upon swallowing. Mouthfeel is smooth and tingly, with good body but lacklustre carbonation. Slightly astringent, followed by an aftertaste of pine resin, bitter hops and mild caramel.
A tasty brew - goes down nicely. Looks alright, with a fantastic aroma/flavour of hops and sweet caramel malt. Decent body, though more effervescence would add texture. Reminds me somewhat of SNPA, which is a pretty good endorsement. Could happily drink a few of these. Worth sampling if you come across it.

Pours a nice golden color. Amber around the top. Lots of visible carbonation. Creamy white head with nice retention. Some striated lace
Smells of biscuits and slightly grainy. Fresh oranges. Some honey. Lots of estery yeast character. Faintly metallic. Some spice too but a lot of sweetness
Taste starts off with some peppery spice. Biscuity malts with some traces of honey or caramel. Hops kick in with some juicy grapefruit. Herbal bitterness works well with the fruity esters. Very nicely balanced. Finishes a bit spicy
Feels smooth and medium-bodied. Crisp with carbonation and spice
Overall a classic in my book. I find that many pale ales - even the good ones - fall flat for me. I'll find myself saying that something's "good for a pale." This is a great beer. True to style, yet different enough to stand out and be known

Gorgeous amber orange color in the glass with a one finger head that vanished quickly.
Aroma is hoppy and yeasty with no malt and maybe A hint of metallic.
Flavor is piney and a little bitter and still yeasty. Very lightly carbonated almost like a light beer but with a hoppy flavor. Not a complex beer at all and doesn't get better as it warms. But a simple solid version of a pale ale. Not my favorite frm victory but its a sessionable ale.

Poured into an Innis & Gunn flute from the 12 oz. bottle.
a: Clear amber with a finger thick head which dissipated quickly and almost completely. Little carbonation evident, appears flat.
t: Sharp metallic up front, reminds me of early craft beer which often seemed to taste of the metal tanks. Brief floral follow up is nice, but then the taste flattens out to just bitter beer. Not flat though, some carbonation.
m: Moderate.
o: Not much going for this other than being somewhat darker colored with some evident hop presence. The initial metallic tinge leaves a poor first impression. Thought it might be an old bottle, but the only possible information are numbers on the bottom, 30610-B1-1731, which are not in the format which Dating Beer reports. .
In any event I still love their IPAs.
UPDATE 11.11.13 Had another from the same sixpack, which seemed to lack the offending metallic tinge of the first. Still finding it rather undistinguished, but then by now I am spoiled by so many good brews. Reminded me somewhat of Sam Adams Vienna Lager, which is generally available for less money, although the Victory may have had a bit more hops presence than Sam's. Did not see much reason to upgrade my ratings enough to make a very significant difference.

Got this sixer at Derk's Fillet & Vine in Montgomery Alabama. My goodness, Alabama has come a long way in the last few years. I'm seeing world class beers sitting beside some great local selections. There's not much else that I can add to the reviews that are not here already. Headwaters Pale Ale is delicious. It's malty and hoppy and the combination of flavors is great. A very nice pale pale ale for times an IPA may be too much. Will be buying again.

poured from a bottle into pint glass, getting close to expiration date so it is probably better than i am reviewing
app- appropriate copper hue for an pa, minimal head on my pour which disappeared quickly
smell- smells great, like a pale ale should, that hoppy smell thats set my mouth to watering, i'll save you the microanalysis of describing what typed of citrus is smells like
taste- delivers what one is looking for in a pale ale. the hop punch we addicts seek, but balanced enough to be all-night drinkable.
mouthfeel- a touch thin for my preference, but not objectionable at all. good carbonation but not '"fizzy"
overall- we have a winner here. wish my local tavern had this one on tap. gives you exactly what you are looking for in a pale ale. not a mind blowingly great beer, but definitely one to put into your regular rotation. good hop flavor, yet with balance, and an abv that you can have more than one (or serveral) of.

Appearance: Pours a clear amber color with a two finger cap; decent lacing action
Smell: Grass and grapefruit with a biscuity base
Taste: A hint of the biscuity underpinnings and then the hops take over, bringing both grass and grapefruit in moderation; a bit of a mineral character, after the swallow, though the hops remain prominent

Overall: Tremendous balance in this beer; this is the kind of beer to settle down with while watching a football game - enjoyable but happy to stay in the background rather than be in your face with every sip

12 oz. bottle poured into a tumbler
A- Golden orange pour. The head is a half finger and white. Retention isn't great, but it hangs on with a little lacing.
S- Floral hop in a good battle with some grainy malt as well. A little citrus comes out of the nose as well.
T- Some grain malt, once again, in a battle with some hop. This time more earthy and piney. Some citrus peel bitterness in there, too.
M- Medium light body. A bit of some fizz. Finish is a tad bitter.
O- A very fresh and decently balanced ale. I love the simultaneous aromas and tastes of both malt and hop.

Pours clear golden amber with a scant head of bone white foam that fell fast to a cap and ring. Left nice lace and constantly refreshed. In the right light has an orange hue.
Nose is out of this world. Citrus, lemon and orange with apple behind that. Light malt sweetness, grains and light bread. Generous spice, sweetly floral and herbal.
Taste follows the nose all the way. Citrus twang greets you first followed by a light sweet malt. Cereal grains carry it to the back with an earthly presence and a healthy helping of spice to tingle on the tongue. Ample carbonation lightens the body. Mouthfeel is sticky, creamy, crisp and light. The apple is sweet and tart like a good apple should be. Lingers whole in the aftertaste with no one characteristic able to be separated from the others. Terrific balance and the aftertaste has a slight mineral quality.
This is one of the best pale ales you will have. It's refreshing, it's delicious, it's well made and you want to have it always in your refrigerator. It's confident and brisk.

12 ounce bottle poured into a tulip glass.
A--Deep golden, a bit cloudy. Small head that didn't last long, but left a decent amount of lacing.
S--Vague floral & herbal notes. Hoppiness is quite apparent.
T--Yummy. Hoppy without being one of the trendy hop bombs. Citrus and floral. Not as much maltiness as I'd like to see for balance, but still fantastic.
M--Tart from the hops and a bit of a tannic finish. Crisp is an understaement, it's tart. A little creamy and quenching.
O--Excellent. Another example of a high quality craft brew from Victory. These guys just can't miss.

FORT LAUDERDALE -- Can you believe it? After 14 games, five months, countless trips to Starbucks and even more to Panera (you know, every sportswriter's office away from the office), the 2012 season has finally come to a close. Florida State finished it as ACC champions, and Orange Bowl victors.
I finished it with one or two gray hairs more than I had when preseason camp broke in August.
But I'll survive.
Was the season a success? Was it a failure? Was it somewhere in between? There is no right answer. The truth lies in the eye of the beholder. Consider the year whatever you will.
All I know is this, though: FSU will be losing several of its key stars in the coming weeks. The Seminoles are about to undergo a crucial cosmetic change. Their quarterback will be different; the defensive line and coaching staff, too.
Expectations and pressure will be heaped upon the Seminoles' shoulders once again. In time, the customary offseason chants of "are they back?" and "this is the year" will echo across the country. The challenges will be different, but markedly similar to what they have long been.
But, before we let you and the players and coaches get too far into thinking about the fall of 2013, let's take one look back at the first day of the new year. After clinging to a narrow lead over the Northern Illinois Huskies, the Seminoles finally pulled away for a 31-10 win over them in Tuesday night's Orange Bowl.
Below, we go deeper behind the Orange Bowl numbers to help explain the win:
6,591: Yards of total offense the Seminoles have had this season. They now are the most prolific offense in school history, going three yards past the 2000 team
12: The number of seasons since FSU had last won a BCS bowl game
14: Points scored in a fourth quarter that allowed the Seminoles to pull away just enough to secure the bowl victory
60: Yards on fullback Lonnie Pryor's first touchdown run
37: Yards on Pryor's second touchdown run
2: Number of Pryor touchdown runs
88: Career field goals for Dustin Hopkins. The FSU kicker's lone 25-yard chip-shot made him the NCAA's all-time leader in career field goals
3: Number of 12-win seasons in FSU history
41: Passing attempts by Northern Illinois quarterback Jordan Lynch
83: Yards rushing for the Huskies. Lynch entered the game averaging more than 130 yards per game himself
21 percent: FSU's conversion percentage on third downs
28 percent: Northern Illinois' conversion percentage on third downs
14: Number of third downs that passed before either team converted one
7.1: Yards per play for the Seminoles. Entered the game averaging 7.0 this season
34:08: FSU's time of possession
2: Number of FSU fourth down conversions. The Seminoles had only attempted four all year entering the game
61: Yards receiving for FSU's Kenny Shaw
291: Yards passing for quarterback EJ Manuel
4: Bowl wins Manuel has had a hand in engineering. As a starter, he was 3-0
14: Tackles by Northern Illinois' Jimmie Ward
10: Tackles by FSU's Vince Williams and Christian Jones
4: Pass breakups by FSU's defense
3: Sacks the Seminoles had (Williams, Nick Moody and Demonte McAllister)
2: Times FSU scored on three red zone trips
1: Second-half interception by Terrence Brooks that helped keep momentum on FSU's side
0: Times FSU defenders were seen on their knees in the fourth quarter

text: Dan Crummett Archives Email Author Check the Tires Please "Smart Valve Stem Caps" from Valley keep continual eye on center-pivot tire condition. Published on: Sep 14, 2011 Tweet Post to Your Wall. Email Story RSS Permalink Print Valley Irrigation is introducing a new tire pressure monitoring system for center pivot machines that will communicated through the Base Station 2 and Pro 2 control panels to alert irrigators of problems with tower tires. The TPMS is the first in the irrigation industry. Through screw-on "smart valve stem caps" the system measures tire pressure continually and sends an "OK" signal as long as pressures are within operating parameters. Once pressure falls below that level, an alert is sent to the pivot's control panel. And, if pressure falls to zero, the system can be programmed to shut down the machine until repairs are made.Valley's Pro 2 control panel "data" page allows irrigators to check tire pressure on individual wheels on rigs up to 16 towers. The innovation allows quick tire replacement or repair when problems arise, and doesn't require the tire be broken down to install the monitor. Each cap is specifically "known" by the system so the operator can determine at a glance which tire on which tower is in need of service. For more information on the TPMS and its applications, visit www.valleyirrigation.com.This sophisticated valve stem cap is individually coded to Valley's Tire Pressure Monitoring System, set for release next February. The caps continually measure pressure in center-pivot tower wheel tires and related circuitry can alert growers of low pressure, and can shut down the system if a tire is flat.

Five big predictions for Australia's shopping future
Last year we saw many major issues emerge in the technology sector. In 2012 we saw Facebook launch its IPO and surpass one billion users for the first time; Apple became the most valuable public company of all time and launched its iPad mini and iPhone 5.
Microsoft launched Windows 8 and its tablet Surface; the internet went black in protest controversial proposed US online anti-privacy laws, known as Stop Online Piracy Act (Sopa); and Google's operating system for phone, Android, continued its dominance helped with the launch of the Galaxy S3 by Samsung.
All these technological advances have also played a pivotal role in how we transact and engage in commerce. As we come to close to another year, it's worth pondering some of the big issues in the technology/commerce space for 2013. Here are some of my predictions:
Australia to have the leading smartphone penetration in the world
Depending on statistics these vary, some saying Australia is a close second to Singapore in smartphone penetration. According to PayPal's Secure Insights Report November 2012, smartphone penetration in Australia was predicted to reach 64% by the end of 2012. Australia is well positioned to be a world leader this year.
Tablet the new way to shop
Up to 40% of Australian households own a tablet device. The shopping experience through a tablet device is becoming increasing consumer friendly, with sophisticated retail players offering apps specifically for a tablet device. The proportion of Australians transacting on mobile devices has seen strong growth over the past 18 months. In January 2011, 12% of Australians were transacting on mobile devices; now 32%.
A new retail player enters the Australian market
There has been much speculation about a new retail player entering Australian shores, one that already operates here through its web services, and best known for its e-books. This company is one of the leading online marketplaces in the world and can significantly alter the local landscape.
Big data the new oil
Many commentators have described the use of big data as potentially the new oil. What is big data? Big data is a collection of data sets so large and complex that it becomes difficult to process using on-hand database management tools or traditional applications. How companies can use and manipulate data to meet specific needs has been dubbed as the new oil. Think about some of the reward schemes offered by supermarkets, while as a consumer you may benefit through discounts, the company is able to collect specific data about your shopping habits therefore better able to analyse and provide goods that meets consumer needs. Some online stores have the ability to track consumer behaviour very effectively, those able to harness these methods, while respecting consumer privacy, will have an edge in the commerce sector for 2013.
Smartphone to become your wallet
Increasingly the smartphone will become your electronic wallet. You can already use your smart phone to make payments, bar code scanning, store loyalty cards, coffee cards, even your beloved photos. The other day when I purchased my movie tickets online, I didn't bother printing my electronic ticket, I simply turned up at the counter with the bar code on my smartphone. As more people realise the capability of their phones, the more will use their phone just as they use their wallet.

Im sure your implying Amazon is coming, and while this could be a good thing, all I can see happening is Amazon launching at slightly cheaper than what we pay here normally, and thereby wiping our chance to grab something cheap off Amazon UK or US.
This is Australia, land of the rip off, any business that takes root here just exploits as the others do.
Gerry Harvey says:
No this is all nonsense…all consumers should continue to visit my stores and pay over inflated prices on cheap asian imports. A Current Affair are getting sick of me sticking my ugly mug on their show crying how poor i am.
Andrew says:
"Big data" is certainly big business, but I wouldn't call their databases massive beyond control (or even difficult to process) like you've put it. In fact the power behind "big data" will be the ability to show trends and generate predictions on a real time basis.
I strongly suspect that quite a few companies will merge their databases as well, even if they are typically competitors. Why you ask? Well the more accurate a profile a company can build about a group of people be it by geographic region, gender, religion or even race, yes nothing is off limits despite what they will say, the more accurate their marketing is.
Expect in the future to see less TV ads of guys shouting at you to buy a new sofa despite the fact you don't need one, and more ads appear about overseas travel when you decide you'd like to travel somewhere, or more car ads appear when you decide it's time to buy a new car, it won't be coincidence, it will be because a group which you are part of is typically now thinking about buying a new car right now.
Colin says:
Flashing lights and colours! Snappy animations! All designed to sell pointless, useless, cheap and nasty Chinese-made junk to weak-willed, uber-consumers who like to fill their house with chintz… Hooray for online shopping!
My big prediction: 5 new high-tech ways to part fools and their money.
Daylight Robbery says:
Australia has one of the highest uptakes of smartphones; all with internet connectivity via data plan or wireless.
Currently online retail sales sit at 7% of physical shop sales in Australia,
While small shop owners can suffer apathy now is the time to race down to the local TAFE grab a graduating web IT student that can do both retail sales and build an online presence at the same time. Shopping carts are no longer expensive.
Many people will shop via their phones. The big unmeasured factor is the amount of customers that have found your online presence to walk in decision already made to purchase reducing sales resources.
America has 300 odd million customers alone for you. North regional Australia has one of the highest earning per capita disposable incomes in the world with a hunger for city products.
Little shop, you have the SMB dynamics to adapt fast.
Billions of customers
Your time starts now.
