Anheuser, InBev Reach A Deal for $52 Billion

Hot off the press - "Anheuser-Busch Cos. agreed to be acquired by InBev NV for about $52 billion, according to people familiar with the matter, creating the world's largest beer maker and placing an iconic American company in the hands of a Belgian-Brazilian giant."

Seems like Bud might be in for a big boost - we may start paying for it as an "Import" as opposed to "Domestic" beer and that is probably 10-20% more in most bars :-)

Rare Earth in concert - Santa Cruz, July 4, 2008

It was fun watching Rare Earth perform at the Beach Boardwalk on Friday - great selection of their hits plus one new song from their latest CD - which wasn't half bad. Here are some pictures.
