The unidentified man is believed to have been about 39 years old and lived near the 7-Eleven in the 9800 block of Socorro where the shooting occurred police spokesman Javier Sambrano said. An analysis of fingerprints taken from the man could result in police releasing his identity Monday Sambrano added. The name of the plainclothes police officer involved in the shooting was not released but Sambrano said he has been with the El Paso Police Department two years and was a transfer from an undisclosed law enforcement agency.

The Couch Slouch: Hoist a PBR for destiny’s last call
Seattle Post Intelligencer 
If you are a team that has trailed by scores of 34-0 28-0 21-0 and 47-0 and you still make the postseason destiny has taken a hand. In this case destiny has one destination: Tampa for Super Bowl 43. Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer of Destiny: I was mocked by the beer cognoscenti — the preening posturing Samuel Adams Winter Ale drinkers who sip their bourgeois swill with a pinky finger in the air — when I made PBR my choice of brew. Well what a year it’s been for the beer that should’ve made Milwaukee famous. All across the land in outposts large and small people are saying “PBR me ASAP!” Pabst has become hip for hipsters and trendy for trendsetters. College kids are discovering it retirees are rediscovering it.

Tawandang- Bangkok Thailand brewery restaurant beer adventure

Bangkok among other things is a beer city. There are several brewpubs in Bangkok Thailand. The Tawandang Beer House is one that is worth visiting for food entertainment and beer. Anyone who has traveled to Thailand knows about the refreshing character of cold Singha and Kloster beer. Whichever of the two is more hoppy is my favorite.

New beer aimed at Quebec sovereigntists
National Post Canada 
Thirsty sovereigntists have launched a beer called l’Independante in hopes of stirring up ailing support for sovereignty. The pale ale dubbed “the beer that will never give in” sports a blue logo with a patriotic-looking woman her fist in the air. The slogans are unequivocal: Vive la biere libre! (Long live free beer!) and Qui prend biere prend pays (Choosing your beer is choosing your country). With support for sovereignty at a low of 37% according to recent polls the beer might be the closest Quebecers will get to independence in the short term. “We’ve hit rock bottom so I think support [for sovereignty] is bound to go up from now on” said co-founder of l’Independante Jacques Leduc.
