Here at OTE, we like to think of this place as "the quintessential Big Ten smoking room," and a damn good smoking room it is. But just about everything--particularly college football--is better with a good drink in your hand, and Off Tackle Empire has never divulged the house cocktail list. It's time to develop the menu.
With such a discerning clientele, the Off Tackle Empire Bar naturally would have any Midwestern microbrew you can think of on tap--Great Lakes, New Glarus, Goose Island, Troegs, etc.--and an admirable selection of whiskeys and bourbons to sip while discussing such deep philosophical questions as "Are Ohio State and Michigan secret lovers?" and "If Floyd's only ever lived in Iowa City and Minneapolis, has he ever been truly free?" (The answer to both questions is no.) But there are already bars and smoking rooms that offer these things, and OTE didn't set out to do what's already been done. Thus, I have taken the liberty of assigning existing cocktails or inventing new ones to be official School Drinks for each university in the conference, plus a few other house specialties. At the OTE bar, you're free to drink what you'd like, but drinks are strongly recommended based on your alma mater/school affiliation.
(DISCLAIMER #1: I haven't tried all of these personally. But someone really should. Looking at you, ICEICE.)
(DISCLAIMER #2: I make no apologies for having a sweet tooth.)
The first drink on the menu is for when things are going right in Urbana-Champaign: the Urbana Champagne. Admittedly, this is just a standard mimosa, but you go with what works: 1 part Grand Marnier, 2 parts OJ, top with champagne. Add a splash from Tim Beckman's spit cup for the truly school-spirited. Tastes like Red Grange himself.
Illinois' second cocktail is speculative in nature and doesn't exist at the moment, just like their mascot. Hypothetically, if there were any Native American brands of whiskey, an even mixture of each would form a drink we'd call the Tribal Council. However, this would be considered a "nice thing," just like Chief Illiniwek, so naturally they can't have either.
Indiana's drink, the Red Zone, is a glass full of straight jalapeno vodka. Inspired by their football team, the Red Zone is plenty strong on the offensive, possibly stronger than anything else on the menu, but most wouldn't consider it a well-rounded drink and would like it much better if it were paired with something else--say, a defense. Garnish with a candy cane for extra school spirit, and because it can't taste much worse.
Iowa is lucky enough to be able to claim one of my favorite shots as an official drink at the OTE Bar. Very similar to a Cement Mixer, Bird Poop is 1 shot of Baileys and 1 shot of lemon juice (a Cement Mixer uses lime juice, but school colors and all), with the two served in separate glasses. The Baileys is taken first and is not swallowed, followed by the lemon juice, at which point they are shaken and swished around the mouth. The acid of the lemon reacts with the dairy in the Baileys and the liquid quickly takes on the consistency of pudding--or bird poop. I truly enjoy this shot, but to be honest, there are many, many people who find it disgusting. But that's okay, Iowa fans, most people don't like your state, either, and does that stop you from living there? Of course not! So go on, try some Bird Poop. Vodka Sam approves.
If Bird Poop's not your thing, try drinking with a purpose: attempt to appease AIRBHG by drinking an Iowa Sacrifice. 1 part tequila, 1 part moonshine, 1 part bacon vodka, then light it on fire. The portion that burns off is the tribute, and we recommend giving AIRBHG at least half. When ready, extinguish and consume.
Michigan fans, I have a confession to make.
I'm sorry for everything. I'm sorry for the name-calling, for the hatred, for dominating you over the last twelve years, and for peeing on that van I parked next to that had "I bleed maize and blue" stickers plastered all over it. Let me get you a drink to show you I mean it. Here, take it. That's it... drink... swallow... HAHAHA I'M NOT SORRY AT ALL YOU ARROGANT BASTARDS, THAT'S CALLED THE FUCK MICHIGAN, IT'S A SHOT OF MY OWN URINE! DRINK UP! And it's fitting, seeing as the first time I visited Ann Arbor, I saw a Michigan student actually pee herself on the campus bus in the middle of the afternoon. Left a puddle in the seat. Wallow in your own filth, Wolverines. And don't complain, at least it matches a school color!
Speaking of school colors, Michigan's bonus drink commemorates their official Adidas colors of Sun and Blue with a drink called--wait for it--Sun and Blue, made by putting 1 egg yolk in 4 shots of blue curacao. The alcohol in the blue curacao totally kills off the bacteria that cause salmonella*. You're welcome, Michigan.
*Totally does not kill off bacteria that cause salmonella.
Michigan State's first drink, Sparty's Skirt, is a good one: 1 part Goldschlager, 1 part sour apple schnapps. It's a school color, and it actually tastes good. Despite this, the Sparty's Skirt is not nearly as popular at the OTE Bar as MSU's second drink.
The Conspartacy is 3 parts absinthe, 1 part sour apple schnapps, and is poured from unopened bottles by the drinker themselves, preferably into their own personal flask or Uncle Si cup (Duck Dynasty reference for the un-American). Each Conspartacy comes with a tinfoil hat and a whisper of inside information from the barkeep. "Psst, hey SpartanHT, my sources tell me Dave Brandon is actively trying to boot Michigan State from the conference and replace them with any of the directional schools." "Hey, MSULaxer, got a juicy piece of info for you, turns out Lou Anna K. Simon is a plant. She's got a deal in the works to give the Ag school to Michigan." "Hey, Delany was just in here, overheard him saying how much he hates MSU and how the refs got bonuses for every pass interference call against them in the Notre Dame game." Thing is, some of what the bartender tells you will be real, and some won't. Or is it all true? YOU'LL NEVER KNOW.
Minnesota's drink, the Minnesota Rouser, is 1 part Goldschlager and 2 parts cranberry juice, because, again, school colors, and it's probably drinkable, so it goes on the menu.
The Golden Gophers' second drink on the menu is the Jerry Killshot: pour all the alcohol that has collected in the bar mat into a glass and go bottoms up.
The Huskers' first drink on the menu has been a certainty since my buddies and I were pregaming at the Single Barrel in downtown Lincoln (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED) prior to Ohio State's first visit to Nebraska in 2011, and a huge, burly, barrel-chested man with barbed wire tattooed around his biceps and a red cowboy hat on his head slowly approached our table, looking like he was about to give us hell... then he suddenly broke into a big grin and pulled out Red Headed Sluts (2 parts Jagermeister, 2 parts cranberry juice, 1 part peach schnapps) for each of us and sat down and drank with us. But story be damned, have you SEEN the girls at Nebraska? This would be Nebraska's drink regardless, in honor of the largest concentration of beautiful co-eds I've ever seen.
On the other hand, the massive struggles of the vaunted Blackshirts over the past several years is just as eye-catching as Nebraska's women, and anymore they're the Blackshirts in name only. Thus, Nebraska has also been given Mike's Hard Cranberry Lemonade. You know it's basically just pop, but if it makes you feel better to call it a real alcoholic beverage, more power to you. We'll humor you as you point out that you can match us drink for drink with your Mike's while we throw back whiskey, just as we'll give the Blackshirts a pat on the back for only allowing 34 points to Wyoming and 31 unanswered to UCLA. You're doing the best you can, and that's what counts!
Northwestern's drink is only served to those with their own Fortune 100 company or private island, because if you don't have either of those things you can't afford this one. The Great Catsby celebates riches, excess, and the color purple, and is made with 3 parts Chambord raspberry liqueur, 1 part blue curacao, and 1 part Ley .925 Ultra Premium Tequila (for you plebeians who aren't familiar, that's the $3.5 million per bottle stuff).
Ohio State gets the best of the bunch. The Buckeye is a layered shot of 1 part Kahlua and 1 part Baileys, with the different shades of brown resembling those of a buckeye. Tall, dark, sophisticated and delicious, just like Buckeye scholars and gentlemen the world over, this drink is year after year the best and most sought-after drink on the menu.
The last several years have been rough for Penn State fans, so it's a good thing they've got a good drink. Paying homage to one of the coolest sights in the conference, the Whiteout is made with 3 parts vanilla vodka, 1 part Baileys, 1 part whole milk and 3 parts heavy cream.
Of course, Penn State fans are the reason the Ohio State University Marching Band has sworn to never return to Happy Valley, so PSU's second drink on the menu is a Urine Bomb, just like those that were lobbed off the highest row of Beaver Stadium at the marching band hundreds of feet below. The Urine Bomb is prepared like a standard Cherry Bomb (1 part cherry vodka, 3 parts Red Bull, splash of grenadine optional), with the main difference being you may or may not randomly have a half-filled bottle of urine flung at your head by the bartender without any provocation, advance warning or chance to defend yourself. Why would anyone order this, you ask? A Urine Bomb comes with a half-hour moratorium on any Sandusky-related conversation in the entire establishment. It's up to you to weigh the risks versus rewards.
This should be obvious. Purdue's drink is the classic Boilermaker, specifically comprised of the Lafayette Brewing Company's Tippecanoe Common Ale from Lafayette and Templeton rye, distilled in Lawrenceburg. Chase the whiskey with the beer, or bomb the beer with the whiskey, or both--actually, try it both ways, one right after the other. It'll help make watching your football team a little easier.
Old habits die hard around the OTE Bar, so with apologies to Gary Anderson and all the Badgers fans who were happy to see Bert leave, Wisconsin's drink is the Bielema Special: a warm keg of Miller Lite that must be finished before you're allowed to exit the bar. (Note: while beer is not a cocktail, this is Wisconsin, so beer as a cocktail should surprise nobody.) This is your punishment for having had him as your coach. Multiple instances of excessive karma have been reported following consumption of the Bielema Special, including losing big games, being a douche, or being a relatively attractive female who wakes up one day to realize she's married some fatass ex-frat boy who does mediocre work as a football coach and is hated by his peers and picks fights he can't win and doesn't stick with the run despite that being the core identity of his program and just run the ball, it was working, but he still tries to pass and he loses because of it and he walks around the house shirtless making hog noises and MAMA ALWAYS SAID TO FIND A GOOD MAN AND WHY DIDN'T I LISTEN I'M SORRY MAMA WHAT HAVE I DONE WITH MY LIFE GOD HELP ME.
Actually, only one instance of that last one has been reported.
I'm still upset about Maryland joining the conference, and thus set out to make fun of them with their drink more than create anything serious. So I thought, "What would be more ridiculous than a vodka infused with that seasoning that all those Laxbros worship?" Lo and behold, Old Bay vodka actually exists, and is the basis of Maryland's drink, the Bloody Maryland. It's a standard Bloody Mary but made with Old Bay vodka, and the bartender's spittle, because Maryland is still not welcome here.
We as a conference spend enough time with Notre Dame that they may as well have a drink on our menu. They get O'Douls, which pretends to be beer but is actually non-alcoholic, just like Notre Dame pretends to be pious but actually is guilty of manslaughter for Declan Sullivan and victim blaming which led to the suicide of Lizzy Seeburg, and just like Manti Teo pretended to grieve for a dead girlfriend to attract attention for his Heisman campaign when she actually never existed. O'Douls, with a chaser of Holy Water. Drink up, Notre Dame.
As with Maryland, I set out to make fun of Rutgers through my creation, and as with Maryland it turns out the heavy lifting has already been done for me. The Jersey Turnpike was originally going to be a simple alcoholic protein shake, but--what's this?--look what already exists! Devotion Vodka, sponsored by Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino of Jersey Shore fame, is an 80-proof protein-infused vodka. So we'll use that. The Jersey Turnpike: 1 part Devotion Vodka, 1 part standard protein shake. Consume before, during, and after the gym.
As always,
drink responsibly don't let drinking responsibly get in the way of having a good time in the OTE Bar. Go B1G or go home!

This offseason the Jacksonville Jaguars will have a new GM and most likely a new Head Coach. With that being said, there will be a roster overhaul, with many familiar faces leaving the team. I will be looking at some of the questionable players who may or may not be returning to the team next year, and look at the value they provide to this team. The first player that comes to mind is our starting DE Jeremy Mincey.
Last offseason, Jeremy Mincey signed a four-year, $20 million dollar contract to be the Jaguars best pass rusher. With 8 sacks last season, Mincey was primed for double digit sacks this year. Fifteen games into the season, however, and Mincey has only recorded 3 sacks, 2 forced fumbles, and failed to generate a consistent pass rush. These stats are surprising, because many of us expected Mincey to at least consistently get to the QB and make a few major plays a game. That obviously hasn't happened, so let's look at what changed.
This year the Jags DT's have been very subpar, failing to create any push up the middle. Daryl Smith has also been injured all season, taking away the Jaguars pass rush from the LB position. There has also been a decline in the cornerback play from this year. Mincey clearly felt the impact from all of these declines and was incapable of making an impact by himself. Therefore, the question must be asked. Should the Jaguars keep Jeremy Mincey after a lackluster performance in 2012?
The initial reaction would be yes, since he just signed a new contract and is supposed to be our number one pass rusher. However, his production hasn't matched up to his salary. He has performed at the same level that Andre Branch and Austin Lane have this year. I believe Mincey will make it through the initial roster overhaul during the FA period, but if he doesn't perform well in training camp, I wouldn't be surprised to see the Jaguars trade him or cut him. During a rebuild, you should only retain the players that are absolutely essential to winning games. Right now Mincey is not one of them, but he deserves another chance with some new pass rushers. This is certainly one of the harder roster decisions the new GM will have to make. What do you think about Jeremy Mincey's future with the team?

Since 1850 this site has been the home of local government and a place of civic pride and celebration. Visitors from around the world come to see the courthouse, mural room or grounds; and hundreds get married in the Mural Room or in the Garden every year. The County Board of Supervisors caused the construction of this, now historic courthouse in 1926, after the smaller Greek-Revival courthouse was damaged in an earthquake of the previous year.
The building was dedicated on August 14, 1929 with a ceremonial setting of the bronze medallion provided by the Native Sons of Golden West, with the mixing of the ingredients of water from each of the California Missions; with sand and gravel from each of the counties in California; and cement from local sources; all on the main stage with a packed crowd of residents and visitors looking on during the 1929 celebration of Old Spanish Days.

I heard that the Mountain View school district will use this money and turn around and refuse Title 1 Federal funds so that two low performing schools will not go into program improvement under No Child Left Behind. Is that what the groups of parents in support of this were after to begin with?
on Feb 25, 2011 at 1:26 pm
I certainly can't speak for the ShareShoreline group of 6, but many of us do not think the items linked. The program improvement benchmarks (standardized tests) are really warnings that the District (Goldman and Trustees) need to spend more resources and efforts on these particular schools. I have listened to reports from the District that this effort seems to be underway. I myself - have written and asked the Trustees to keep this money. One school is literally a 2 minute slow walk away from the District Office. I think we expect the old "HP Way" - management by walking around, the Superintendent should be directly involved.
The old District Budget Committee which included parents has apparently NOT MET (or been disbanded) for the last several years. I have, by letter and public comment, urged the Trustees to reconstitute that citizen advisory committee. No luck yet!
on Feb 25, 2011 at 3:54 pm
The old HP way would also be to replace the failing department heads, in this case the principals, who have been supervising the decline of these same schools for several years. Gee, that took me all of 20 seconds to think of and type out.
on Feb 27, 2011 at 11:23 pm
Concerned citizens will be on the look-out for the district refusing Title I funds!

Wireless Home Security
Wireless home security makes protecting your family easy. There are no holes to drill or wires to run. While that makes installation easier and cheaper, it also makes you less vulnerable to criminals who in the past were able to disarm your systems simply by cutting a few wires. Most systems also come with battery back-ups, which means with a wireless security system, you're protected, even when power fails.
Home Security Equipment
Most home security systems consist of a control panel and a network of sensors and detectors to help keep your home safe. The control panel is central to the system. It monitor the various sensors and when things go wrong, it sends a signal to the monitoring center so you can get the help you need, when you need it. The sensors detect things like motion, vibration, smoke, heat, carbon monoxide, water and more. They are generally placed at key points throughout the home and provide great protection.
Home Security monitoring
Whether it's a fire, a burglary attempt, or carbon monoxide, your home alarm system should alert you. However, the majority of the time, the most important thing you need to do is get your family out of the house. The last thing you need to worry about is calling 911. If you have home security monitoring, those at the security monitoring center can take care of it for you. With most companies, they are there 24/7 and can make sure you get the help you need, when you need it.

X Hot IronsIn the X Hot irons, Callaway takes the "Speed Frame Face Technology" it's been using in its drivers and utilized it in irons. That tech is designed to create a better transfer of energy from clubface to golf ball, thereby boosting ball speed and distance performance.
These irons also use a Deep Undercut Cavity design to move the center of gravity lower (helping with launch) and move the "hottest" part of the clubface lower, as well.
The X Hot irons also incorporate "Feel Management Technology" in the back of the clubhead, for crisper feel and sound.
The stock shaft is the True Temper Speed Step 85 Lightweight Steel Shaft, with other options available. The initial price is $699 with steel shafts and $899 with graphite shafts.
X Hot Pro IronsThe X Hot Pro irons are designed with Callaway's new "J-Face Dynamics," a clubface tech intended to appeal to better golfers with its blend of power and feel.
Callaway is also using in this stainless steel iron set a groove technology, 20-degree Close Spaced V Grooves, that is normally used in forged irons. Callaway says these grooves help create more backspin - up to 1000rpm more - compared to previous generation irons.
The introductory price for the X Hot Pro irons is $799 with steel shafts and $999 with graphite shafts.
And HybridsComplementing the new iron sets are X Hot and X Hot Pro hybrids, which include a modern Warbird sole plate with heel and toe relief to increase versatility. The stock shaft for both models is the Project X Velocity.
The X Hots come in 3, 4, 5 and 6 hyrids; the X Hot Pros, which have a smaller clubhead, come in lofts of 16, 18, 20 and 23 degrees. Both are priced at $179. callawaygolf.com

When I founded Vehicle Tracking Solutions in 2002, I was overwhelmed with excitement to get in front of business owners and show them the emerging technology that uses government-owned GPS to see the exact location of company vehicles on a digital map on a computer screen. The vehicle could be across the street or across the country, and in real time you would be able to "track your fleet from your office seat." When I started VTS, most business owners were not aware of the power of GPS. This was before the great popularity of personal navigation devices stuck to every windshield and smart phone apps that can take you to the closet burger joint or to some address hundreds of miles away.
I banged on lots of doors and made lots of calls to showcase my solution to everyone I had met over the previous 10 years during my tenure as a door-to-door pager and cellular telephone salesman.
During those first few years, we spent a lot of time educating our prospects on the benefits of investing in a GPS-based vehicle tracking solution. Many of our early clients justified doing business with us by stopping the few bad apples they had in the whole bunch of drivers they employed.
I soon learned that our solution needed to go beyond simply eliminating driver waste. Our solution needed to be a tool that would help even the best and most well-managed fleets complete more deliveries and service calls each day, assist dispatchers in sending the closest driver to a call, keep perfect records of vehicle movement and vehicle maintenance, and aid our clients in raising the level of service they offer to their own clients. I knew our clients needed to have the answers in front of their eyes when the phone rang and someone asked "where's your driver?"
Since our first generation solution (called FleetMinder) which was replaced in 2008 with the launch of Silent Passenger, my staff and I have been committed to continually adding features and improving our product line. Vehicle Tracking Solutions continues to make the prosperity and efficiency of your fleet our number one priority. By keeping these principles in mind, I have had the great fortune to expand my business to service clients operating vehicles all over the United States.
The VTS staff operates in our Long Island, NY office consisting of our in-house software developers, product enhancement engineers, customer support and training specialists, and fleet management specialists sole focus is to put our experience and the best practices of our clients to work for you when you use Silent Passenger. If you are committed to doing everything you can to bring your business to the next level, you have my personal commitment that my staff and I share your goals and together our success has no limit.
