JTMR = Guest Editor new issue of Focus Skateboard Magazine.

2011-03-27T17:18:00.001-04:00

The X- games, ah the X-games...I believe that I was at the first ever x-games because it was
walking distance from my house. I believe that it was in 1997 and at it was held at Mariner's
Point, which is the original home of the ESPN X-Games and the Bahia hotel in Mission Beach, San Diego, California. Somehow I wasn't in the contest but I have a vague recollection of my friend Willy Santos being in it and doing quite well. I think that they only had three disciplines back then, skateboarding, bmx, and roller blading. The latter discipline may be why the almighty X-games earned the moniker ," THE X-GAYMES." HA! Anyway, I only went one day of the three-day weekend because the contests didn't seem like such a big deal. But after that weekend, somehow I knew that the skateboard industry would never be the same.

Videos! Oh videos. Videos have made and killed many skateboard careers. I remember the days of the huge skateboard video premiers when nobody except the team riders, and the company heads knew what to expect. It was a big deal, like a Hollywood movie premier. All of the top skateboarders in the industry would be there, and you knew that something special was going to go down. Now, with the internet and all of the televised skateboarding and every TOM, DICK, JOE, and HARRY doing "Bangers" on the internet; those days of the huge skateboard video premiers are numbered, if not over. It seems like now all skateboard companies, even the big ones are just having their premiers at bars and skate shops. Which isn't bad but that and the internet takes away from some of the "magic" that skateboarding once had. On the other hand the internet is good cause after an event you can usually just Google the name of the event and see the best skateboarding from the event, which is good for old guys like me; just Google HALLOWEEN HELLRAISER 2010.

THPS aka Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, is genius, and the EA sports SKATE franchise is epic. Both of these video games have had a major impact on the way kids think and execute tricks on their skateboards. When I landed my first 360 flip I didn't really know how the board actually flipped because I never had seen anybody else do it. With the stellar graphics and superior design of these video games kids can now see the details of how every trick is executed. In turn, they see themselves do it as a character on the video game and then take the trick to real life on some crazy gnarley obstacle and actually do it!!! Hence, all of the bangin' skateboarding being uploaded onto websites, like The Berrics.

When I first came to my own on my skateboard the industry was purer, younger, and more naive. Then, skateboarding was underground, non-mainstream, and frowned upon by most of the establishment. Nowadays, it is more accepted. In fact, there are constantly new skate parks being built all over the world. While before, when I was first coming up skate parks like the Del Mar Skate Ranch were being closed down. Now the amount of skate parks and skateboarding seems comparable to the amount of sports fields and basketball courts in any given community. Furthermore, the influx of corporate sponsors, major shoe and drink deals are helping to build of all of these skate parks. I believe this is both a blessing and a curse. A blessing for young talented skateboarders wallets, but a curse for the soul and the art of skateboarding.

All in all, to persevere in skateboarding and to become a modern professional skateboarder in the current state of the skateboard industry; I believe you have to be resilient, be able to adapt, be able to change with the times, and most of all be an all around good skateboarder.

Background

Consumption of beer in the United States is about 33 gallons per person per year based on persons over 18 years of age (6). In all, over six billion gallons of beer are produced each year in the United States (6,7).

Generally three types of beer are sold: regular, light, and non-alcoholic. The term light intends to signify a product with less alcohol and fewer calories than regular beer. About 2-3 percent of beer sales are now of the light type (4). Non-alcoholic beer usually claims less than a half percent of alcohol and is intended for people who desire a product with little or no alcohol.

In all, 202 samples of beer were tested. The alcohol and calorie content for each sample are reported. In comparison to regular beer which averaged 5 percent alcohol and 43 calories per 100 ml, light and non-alcoholic beer averaged 16 and 94 percent less alcohol and 27 and 60 percent fewer calories, respectively.

ADDITIONAL DATA

Beer is a generic name for beverages made by fermentation of extracts of cereal grain, particularly barley, or other starchy material (1,8). Beer is a beverage known since antiquity and next to wine is probabLy the oldest of prepared food drinks. In modern times the countries of northern Europe set the style of beer as it appears today. In fact, the words "beer," "brewing," and "Lager" are all of German origin (1,8).

Beer is defined in Connecticut Statutes (2) as any beverage obtained by the alcoholic fermentation of an infusion or decoction of barley, malt and hops in drinking water and containing more than one-half of one percent of absolute alcohol. Taxes on beer sold in Connecticut are collected by the Excise Tax Division of the Department of Revenue Services at the rate of $3 per barrel (not less than 28 nor more than 31 gallons per barrel).

METHODS

Samples were collected at wholesale beer distributors in Connecticut by inspectors of the Excise Tax Division of the Department of Revenue Services during April and May, 1987. Analysis for alcohol content was by AOAC methods (5) using gas chromatography (3). Proteins, ash, and solids were analyzed by AOAC methods (5). Carbohydrate content was calculated as percent total solids - (% protein + % ash) Calories were calculated as (% alcohoL X 6.93) + ((96 carbohydrate + %protein) X 4) (3). Duplicate analyses for alcohol in the same container of beer showed an average deviation of 0.057 percent and duplicates for protein 0.05 percent.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

Of the 202 samples tested, 163 were regular beer (Table 1), 26 were light beer (Table 2), and 13 were non-alcoholic beer (Table 3). These represented 81, 19 and 9 different brands of regular, light, and nonalcoholic beer, respectively. Each Table lists the brand name of the beer, the name of the brewer, the country of origin, alcohol content, and the calories per 100 ml (milliliters) (3.5 ounces).

Alcohol in regular, light, and non-alcoholic beer averaged 5.0, 4.1, and 0.3 percent, respectively (Table 4). Calories in regular, light and non-alcoholic beer averaged 43, 32, and 17 per 100 ml, respectively. The range in values for alcohol and calories was wide. Alcohol in regular beer ranged from 1.0 to 9.5 percent, while light beer ranged from 2.4 to 5.4 percent and non-alcoholic beer from 0.1 to 0.7 percent. Similarly, calories varied among all types of beer. Some variation was noted in alcohol content among different containers of the same type of beer. A dilference of 1.5 percent was found in one type of regular beer and 1.6 percent in another. Although the labels showed no code numbers, each container of beer is likely from a different manufacturing batch.

A comparison of alcohol and calorie content between regular and light beer from the same manufacturer can be made by examining Tables 1 and 2. For example, eight regular beers made by Anheuser Busch (does not include beer claiming half the amount of alcohol as regular beer) averaged 5.11 percent alcohol. Four light beers from the same manufacturer averaged 4.17 percent, 15 percent less than found in the regular beer. Calories in the same Anheuser Busch regular beer averaged 44 per 100 ml and 35 in light beer, or 20 percent lower calories. Similar comparisons may be made for other manufacturers.

For some, Brooklyn is a whole different world. Some neighborhoods and zip codes are not just at different locales, they are completely different universes. They are worlds apart yet so close. They are entirely different cultures, customs, morals and values. The above photos were shot within a short period of time one night in the not so "hipster" part of Williamsburg. Brooklyn.
