[ale] Tomcat Logs

[Jerald Sheets]

+! Logstash

Essentially open source splunk.  You can use Splunk for free if you're only
looking at a small amount of logs.

Honestly, anyone who is looking at Tomcat logs should probably be someone
who knows how to use vim and/or knows a very basic amount about java name
domains and such.
