Gus Malzahn doesn't want anyone but his coaches working with his QBs
The most famous football coach that isn't actually employed as a football coach has to be George Whitfield. Working with the likes of Johnny Manziel, Cam Newton, Robert Griffin III, Tajh Boyd, Braxton Miller and Logan Thomas, some have bought in to Whitfield's reputation as a quarterback guru. That reputation and clientele allowed Whitfield to get a job as a contributor on ESPN's College GameDay this fall.
If Urban Meyer, Kevin Sumlin, Frank Beamer and Dabo Swinney allow Whitfield to work with their quarterbacks while still on their respective rosters, he must be doing something right.
One quarterback who won't be joining Whitfield's list of proteges, though, is Auburn's Nick Marshall. Following reports that Marshall would work with Whitfield this summer, Gus Malzahn had this to say:
"We've never had anyone work with our quarterbacks while they still had eligibility," Malzahn told AL.com. "We feel really good about how we go about it and the success we've had before. There won't be anyone working with our quarterbacks until their eligibility is exhausted."
Malzahn's thinking is understandable and, quite frankly, I'm surprised more coaches don't take this stance - especially with their quarterbacks. A quarterback is a finely-tuned race car, and it's easy to see why control-freak coaches wouldn't want someone else tinkering with what's under the hood.
"You want them thinking exactly like you want them to think," Malzahn said. "When you get multiple people working, there's multiple thoughts, so we want them thinking one way."
Entering his ninth season as a college coach, Marshall will somehow be Malzahn's first multi-year starting quarterback. Considering Marshall was playing cornerback as recently as 2011, one can see why Auburn's head coach wants his quarterback exclusively enrolled in Malzahn University this summer. Who could know how to help his quarterbacks better than him?
I'm just surprised more coaches don't think the same way.
Photos: The Bucs new uniforms
Last week Tampa Bay unveiled their new "enhanced logo" helmet, and this morning we get a peek at their new uniforms.
Personally, the oversized logo has grown on me over the years (especially with Boise's approach) so I like that addition, but the numbers seem like something directly out of the XFL and that's never a compliment. They'll definitely stick out among other NFL uniforms, that's for sure.
The Bucs have released their reasoning behind the uniform design elements. Read it here.

Video: 'Inches make the champion' at Tennessee
The University of Tennessee held their annual strength clinic recently, and the guys at ASAP Athletic Strength and Power were there to capture some quality nuggets for both coaching staffs, and their strength guys within Butch Jones' opening remarks.
Coach Jones started off with what separates their training philosophy from what other programs may be doing, from his perspective.
"What separates us a little bit in our strength and conditioning program is that 'your on the field product', and your 'in the weightroom product' is exactly the same. They are training them the way that we want to play football here."
Jones went on to explain that they decided to buy a bunch of heart monitors the last two weeks of the season to monitor. The objective was to have a means to measure when players were actually working as hard as they possibly could.
"It was amazing, because now we can tell when kids are loafing, and not going hard. Now, with your heart rate, football is meant to be played within the 80th and 90th percentile with your heart rate. So as a football coach, they come off and they already have all their data on this big flat screen TV, and now I can when we go team periods, and some other things, what kids are not giving their all for Tennessee." he explained.
"It also lets me gage, as a coach, it was amazing to see that our wideouts, even in individual, did more taxing work, and more running than most all of our position combined."
Jones then explained that the monitoring system informs them of how much recovery time each player is projected to need, and noted to the strength coaches in attendance of how that is a perfect example of how the strength coaches work hand in hand with the goals and vision of the coaching staff.
To wrap things up, Jones reminded strength coaches that their last name is their brand.
"We're all strength coaches in here. What makes you different? What is your personal brand? Your last name is your personal brand, so what does that stand for? How are you preparing your kids differently to give them the edge? The inches make the champion to go succeed on game day."

What's up with Miami's new 80's style practice shorts?
Kliff Kingsbury has creative control over their uniforms down in Lubbock, and after seeing Miami's choice of shorts for spring ball practices, I can't help but wonder If Richard Simmons or Tom Selleck are among the 80's icons that have had their hands in designing the 'Canes practice wardrobe.
I first noticed the shorts while looking at the practice video below, but after some research it looks like they've got a few different color combinations to choose from. Why they decided to go this route for practice uniforms is a mystery. Perhaps in an effort to prepare everyone for the NFL Combine (aka the Spandex Olympics)?
Maybe I'm crazy, but I don't see this catching on as the newest uniform trend. But crazier things have happened.
The Sun Belt has announced its 2014 conference schedule
The Sun Belt announced its 2014 conference schedule on Saturday. While it's obviously a big day for the conference, it's also notable across the college football landscape as today's news completes the entire 2014 FBS schedule; the Sun Belt was the 10th of 10 FBS leagues to unveil its 2014 slate.
Here are the highlights, plucked from the conference's official release:
- Appalachian State will be making its first trip to Michigan Stadium in Ann Arbor, Mich., since 2007 when the Mountaineers won a 34-32 game over the No. 5-ranked Wolverines. The Mountaineers, ranked No. 1 in the FCS at the time, blocked a game-winning field goal in the waning seconds to secure the historic win at Michigan.
- Breakdown of matchups by conference: AAC (1), ACC (4), Big 10 (2), Big 12 (0), C-USA (4), MAC (3), MWC (5) PAC 12 (1), SEC (10)
- UL Monroe hosts Wake Forest in a rematch of last season's matchup in Winston-Salem, N.C., where the Warhawks held on for a 21-19 victory.
- Georgia State and Georgia Southern, rivals in many other sports, will play the first football game in series history on Oct. 25. The Eagles will make the three-hour drive up the interstate to begin the football rivalry with the Panthers at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta, Ga. Georgia Southern will also travel to Atlanta to take on another in-state foe, Georgia Tech, on Sept. 13 for the first football game in that series.
As a reminder, Western Kentucky has departed the Sun Belt for Conference USA, while former independents Idaho and New Mexico State and FCS immigrants Georgia Southern and Appalachian State have joined the conference.
The schedule opens Wednesday, August 27 with the first game of the FBS season - Abilene Christian at Georgia State - and closes with five games on November 29.
Video: Nick Saban speaks on the 10-second rule for the first time
Nick Saban spoke to the Georgia Minority Coaches Association on Friday, which gave the reporters in attendance their first crack to ask him about the NCAA's proposed 10-second rule and his role in getting the rule on the table.
Saban denied having anything to do with the idea of a 10-second rule, even though he was one of two non-voting members meeting with the rules committee earlier this month in Indianapolis (you know who the other one was by now).
Saban stated he favors the rule because referees should control the pace of play (instead of the opposing offense) and that a slowed-down game is a safer game. Clearly he hasn't read the results of this pace of play study.
Video: How Pat Moorer prepares Texas for spring ball
Longhorn Network provided a glimpse Thursday night at new Longhorns' strength coach Pat Moorer's efforts to prepare his new team for spring football.
As the trusted lieutenant for no-nonsense head coach Charlie Strong, Moorer's workouts are as serious as a trip to the principal's office.
Let's take a closer look at Bobby Petrino's contract
Louisville released the highlights of Bobby Petrino's contract on Friday, and the big ticket item from January - the $10 million buyout - made it in the final version. Should Petrino take another job on or before June 30, 2017, he (or, more accurately, his next employer) would be on the hook for $10,000,000. The buyout decreases by $1.5 million a year from there. If, say, Petrino leaves after the 2016 season, Louisville would have actually made $1 million for his three years of service (minus bonuses). It's worth noting, however, that the buyout decreases by 50 percent if Cardinals athletics director Tom Jurich vacates his post.
As for the rest of the deal, Petrino is signed to a six-year contract with a base salary of $3 million a year. His predecessor, Charlie Strong, made $3.7 million in 2013, while Petrino banked $855,600 at Western Kentucky according to the USA Today coaching salary database.
Petrino can also earn a $500,000 bonus if Louisville posts an APR score of 935 or higher. The Cardinals scored a 924 in 2011-12, but registered consecutive years of 952, 947 and 943 from 2004-06 under Petrino, Louisville's three highest scores since the APR system debuted a decade ago.
From there, Petrino's bonuses range from $25,000 for a conference championship, a top 25 finish or a team GPA of 2.5 to 2-74 up to a $200,000 bonus for a national championship. Petrino can earn up to $4.05 million in one season.

Pfendler Vineyards
The Pfendler vineyards consist of 19 acres of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay on four estate vineyards. Peter was the first to plant vineyards at the Petaluma Gap's Crown, a very cool and windy area. The Penngrove Vineyard is a 6-acre parcel in this region planted to Chardonnay and Pinot Noir (clones 114, 115, 777, 828 and Swan). The fruit from this vineyard previously went into the Copeland Creek label. The Pullis Vineyard is the coolest and foggiest vineyard, situated on the base of a mountain just east of Petaluma. It was planted to clone 828 in 2005. Pfendler Vineyard is part way up the mountain and was planted to Bordeaux varieties in 1992. Located at 1,200 feet in the middle of the fog line, it was budded over to Chardonnay (Hyde clone) and Pinot Noir (Pommard clone) in 2008. The Helgren Vineyard sits at 2,000 feet on the mountain top and was budded over in 2008 to Calera and Swan selections of Pinot Noir. This vineyard will make its debut in 2009. Noted winemaker and viticulturist, Greg Bjornstad, was the initial winemaker and vineyard manager. John Raytek replaced him in August 2010 and oversaw all aspects of production for the 2009 vintage at Copain Custom Crush in Santa Rosa, CA. Raytek has his own label, Ceritas, featuring Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from the Sonoma Coast and Russian River Valley appellations. His previous winery experience includes six years as assistant winemaker at Copain, and winemaker at Rhys Vineyards from 2002 through 2004 where he helped plant the Alpine and Home vineyards. Raytek left in late 2011 and Bjornstad returned. The inaugural 2007 vintage for Pfendler Vineyards produced 550 cases of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Rosé. Production will double with the 2009 vintage as the family's newest vines come of age. This has all the makings to be one of California's finest Pinot Noir producers.

SURPRISE, Ariz. – The Seattle Mariners won their ninth straight Cactus League game, defeating the Texas Rangers 7-6 in front of 6,104 fans at Surprise Stadium Sunday. The nine-game winning streak is the club's longest ever in a single spring in the Cactus League. Seattle's previous mark was eight straight, set in 1993.
The Mariners scored six times in the first three innings, plating two runs in each of the first three frames, to build a lead they would never relinquish.
Kendrys Morales (#1) and Jesus Montero (#1) each homered, giving Seattle 22 home runs in 10 games this spring, the most in baseball (Cactus or Grapefruit League). Fifteen different players have now homered for Seattle this spring, and Seattle has collected multi-homer games in each of its last seven contests.
The Mariners jumped to a quick 2-0 lead, as Jason Bay walked and Morales drilled a 2-0 pitch high on the grass berm in center field with one out in the first inning. Seattle added another pair in the second as Montero, Mike Zunino and Brendan Ryan all doubled, and the Mariners expanded the lead to 6-0 on a two-run homer from Montero in the third inning.
Seattle starter Joe Saunders (1-0) picked up the win, tossing 2.0 shutout innings in his first start (second appearance) of the spring. Hector Noesi was touched up for single runs in the third and fourth innings to cut the lead to 6-2, but Josh Kinney escaped a bases loaded no-out situation in the fifth inning without allowing a run. Carson Smith worked a scoreless sixth, while Jonathon Arias allowed a pair of unearned runs in the seventh. Danny Farquhar tossed a scoreless eighth. Bobby LaFromboise allowed two runs in the ninth (one earned) but left the bases loaded to notch his first save.
Seattle added a single run in the sixth on an Eric Thames sacrifice fly to make it 7-2 before the Rangers scored a pair of unearned runs in the seventh to cut the lead to 7-4. The Rangers had a solo homer and an unearned run in the ninth inning to cut the lead to 7-6, but left the bases loaded in the loss.
The Mariners (9-1) return home tomorrow, hosting the Colorado Rockies (5-4) at Peoria Stadium. The game will be televised by ROOT Sports but will not be broadcast in the Seattle area on 710 ESPN Seattle and the Mariners Radio Network. Right-handed pitcher Jon Garland is scheduled to start for the Mariners against Rockies right-hander Juan Nicasio.

Full review
Nokia has a reputation for producing phones of all shapes and sizes and the 7710 pushes this to the extreme by not looking like a phone at all. Lacking a keypad, it has buttons on the left and right sides of a widescreen format display. It looks more like a games console than a phone.
Don't be fooled, however. The Nokia 7710 is good for voice and data traffic, and much more besides. Its software is similar to that used in the 9500 Communicator and 9300 Smartphone. Both those devices are aimed more at the professional than the consumer, but Nokia has added in a whole host of multimedia features to give this £350 handset broader appeal.
The Nokia 7710 is large, large, large. Forget putting this beastie into a top pocket as its 69 by 128 by 19 mm and 189g require something altogether more substantial. Indeed, if you want to fully protect the vast screen, you'll need to use the provided carrying case, which bulks it out even more.
We've already noted the games console-like hardware design. This encourages you to use the 7710 in a landscape format, held between two hands. The screen is not up to console standards, offering just 65K colours when other phones are running to 262K, but it is clear and crisp, with its 640x320 pixels providing plenty of clarity indoors. However, we did find it easily washed out in sunlight.
One of Nokia's firsts on this handset is that the screen is touch-sensitive, offering you the choice of prodding at icons or using the hardware buttons to get around. Another first for Nokia is that it complements the touch-sensitive screen with handwriting recognition, and for this you'll need the stylus that lives in the bottom right-hand edge of the casing.
We mustn't lose sight of the fact that the Nokia 7710 is a phone, though the absence of phone buttons and a number pad on the front of the casing could be taken as evidence that Nokia doesn't seem to keen to shout about the fact. To make a call, you need to find the green Call key, which sits on the top edge of the casing. Next to this is the End key, and next to that the speaker key. All three are rubberised and pretty easy to press, but their positioning makes them almost seem like an afterthought.
Your SIM card lives next to the battery, and both sit under a large cover on the back of the 7710. The back of the casing is also where you'll find the lens for the built-in camera. There's no flash, no mirror and just a 2x digital zoom -- all of which is bit disappointing.
Overall build quality is mixed. There's a reflective sheen to the front buttons which is nice, and the two-tone grey with black trim design is appealing. But the back cover is large and feels a little flimsy -- you'll need to take care not to snap it.
The 7710 is crammed with software for entertainment, personal information management, communications and business use.
For example, there's a spreadsheet, document creator and viewer for PowerPoint presentations, the kinds of things you'd expect to see in a device aimed at professional users. Then there are music and movie players, and a built-in FM radio with 20 presets for the consumer market. it also has support for Visual Radio. The idea is that radio broadcasts are accompanied by data, allowing you to see info about playing tracks, buy ringtones, and so on. As we write this is not available in the UK, so we can't comment on how well it works.
For communications there is email, MMS and SMS support, all in the same application, and a Web browser. The browser is actually one of the best applications on the 7710. You can use the entire wide screen to display pages, and even the more complex sites we visited like Amazon.co.uk and BBC News were legible and clear.
Launching applications is easy. They appear as big icons on the main screen, and once you are in an application, large tappable buttons on the right of the screen offer options you are likely to want, with a menu providing access to more. In general the software design is good and the combination of touch screen and button usage is intuitive.
As we dug deeper, we found annoyances, however. Some applications take a while to load first time, though if you run them subsequently without having switched the 7710 off, they start much more quickly.
Making voice calls is rather more tricky than it should be for a mobile phone. The Call key brings up a list of dialled numbers, received calls and missed calls. To key in a number you need to tap the Telephone icon and use the on-screen number pad. It's a circuitous route and you can't do it single-handed. During testing, it wasn't possible to make calls while standing on a bus or train, carrying a shopping bag, or in other situations where only one hand was free.
Holding the 7710 to your ear to make calls feels a little strange, but Bluetooth is present if you want to use a headset. Pairing with our favourite headset was easy.
The 90MB of on board memory is plenty and its contents won't be lost if the battery runs down. It is augmented by a 128MB MultiMediaCard, with the 7710 supporting cards up to 512MB. Unfortunately the card's slot is under the battery cover, making swapping difficult.
For all its apparent multimedia capability, playing videos recorded with the built-in camera full screen was not entirely rewarding -- picture quality is not particularly good.
As already noted, voice calls are a pain to make. Audio quality, however, was good with the 7710 held to the ear, and the on-board speaker delivered well too. The speaker also performs well for music, but output to the provided headset wasn't wonderful. Furthermore, the Pop-Port connector means you can't easily use your own favourite earphones.
Battery life is quoted at between 3.5 to 12 hours -- a very wide range. We managed every day of our test period without draining the battery, but if you are a heavy multimedia user who likes several hours of music during each day, expect battery life to be on the short side of that range.

SAN Tribuvar Tribuvar contains a high Tribulus Terrestris (45% Furostanol Saponins) extract. Tribulus Terrestris is a perennial plant, which grows predominately in India and Africa. Tribulus Terrestris is known to contain pharmacological active metabolites like phytosterols, flavonoids and glycosides. Tribulus has been used widely as a natural resource in the treatment of sexual dysfunction and various urinary disorders. According to clinical medical research, some of the active sterols in the Tribulus Terrestris plant are purported to maintain natural testosterone levels by increasing luteinizing hormone (LH) production. LH regulates testosterone production through the stimulation of the leydig cells and high levels of LH coincide with free or unbound testosterone levels. With the increase of the body's natural endogenous unbound testosterone levels, athletes now supplement with Tribuvar to promote protein synthesis and help maintain a positive nitrogen balance as well as stimulate faster recuperation and recovery from exercise. For years, some of the worlds most known athletes of the Soviet Union supplemented Tribuvar extensively with effectiveness. It's natural and good safety profile makes Tribuvar the number one sought after dietary supplement with no contraindications such as toxicity and side effects.

Gold prices are likely to rise on US Dollar weakness while crude oil falls amid risk aversion if April's US Retail Sales data falls short of economists' expectations.
Talking Points
The spotlight is on April's US Retail Sales report to start the trading week. Expectations call for receipts to decline 0.3 percent, marking the second consecutive print in negative territory. Despite a handful of recent upside surprises, US economic news-flow has tended to underperform relative to consensus forecasts since late March. This hints analysts continue to overestimate the health of the world's largest economy and opens the door for a downside surprise.
Commodities are already under pressure before data crosses the wires and S&P 500 index futures are trading lower, pointing to a risk-off mood prevailing ahead of the opening bell on Wall Street. If the report indeed falls short of expectations, this is likely to undermine risk appetite andpunish cycle-sensitive crude oil and copperprices. Gold and silvermay find support however as ebbing bets on an early unwinding of Federal Reserve stimulus efforts weigh on the US Dollar.
Crude Oil Technical Analysis (WTI) - Prices put in a Harami candlestick pattern below falling trend line set from early January, hinting a turn lower may be ahead. Near-term support is at 94.16, marked by a rising trend line set from the April 18 low, with a push beneath that aiming for the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement at 92.71. Alternatively, a push above the trend line (now at 96.63) aims for the 38.2% Fib expansion at 97.73.
Daily Chart - Created Using FXCM Marketscope 2.0
Gold Technical Analysis (Spot) - Prices are testing below support at 1448.77, the 14.6% Fibonacci retracement to challenge the 23.6% level at 1424.59. A break below the latter level on a daily closing basis exposes the 1400/oz figure and the 38.2% Fib at 1385.36. Near-term resistance is at 1487.65, the 61.8% Fib expansion.
Daily Chart - Created Using FXCM Marketscope 2.0
Silver Technical Analysis (Spot) - Prices recoiled from resistance at 24.49, the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement. Near-term support is at 23.55, the 14.6% Fib, with a drop beneath that eyeing the April 16 bottom at 22.03. Alternatively, a reversal above resistance targets the 38.2% level at 26.02.
Daily Chart - Created Using FXCM Marketscope 2.0
Copper Technical Analysis (COMEX E-Mini) - Prices are testing above resistance at 3.388, the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement. A confirmed break upward on a daily closing basis exposes the 76.4% level at 3.469. Near-term support is at 3.322, the 50% Fib.

(Asheville, NC) September 2, 2011 - After hurricanes, fires and floods, the Red Cross knows how to clean up, serve a hot meal and make people feel at home. Now, imagine taking that talent to the Crowne Plaza and treating guests to an evening of elegance, complete with red roses, live music, fine art, and fine gourmet dining.
That's just what will happen this October at the Crowne Plaza Expo Center in Asheville – the Red Cross of Western North Carolina will go black tie for one night and one night only.
On October 22, the Red Cross of Western North Carolina will honor its centennial year in elegant fashion with the Red Cross Ball: The Celebration of a Century. With the help of presenting sponsor, Asheville Savings Bank, the Red Cross will host a lavish evening of cocktails, dinner and dancing to the music of local favorite, A Social Function.
"The Red Cross is thrilled to celebrate our Centennial year with such a fine event and with such fine friends. We are so pleased that Asheville Savings Bank is sponsoring the Ball, in their own 75th year," said Patrick Fitzsimmons, CEO of the Western North Carolina Region.
While wining, dining and dancing, attendees to the Ball can expect the chance to support the regional efforts of the Red Cross through a "Fund the Needs" auction. This unique auction of goods and services will offer the opportunity to make a direct pledge to humanitarian services the Red Cross provides to the community. In addition to the "Fund the Needs" auction, guests may bid on a number of fine art pieces from a selection of renowned artists, included Jonas Gerard and George Widener.
Any proceeds from the auctions as well as ticket sales will go directly to supporting the regional humanitarian efforts of the Red Cross of Western North Carolina. Single tickets for the Red Cross Ball are $125 and may be purchased online at www.redcrosswnc.org. Tables of 8 are available are also for $1000.
The American Red Cross, a humanitarian organization led by volunteers and guided by its Congressional Charter and the Fundamental Principles of the International Red Cross Movement, will provide relief to victims of disaster and help people prevent, prepare for, and respond to emergencies.

Barbeque advice in the East Bay
I have a visitor coming from Texas this week who wants to sample the best barbeque in the East Bay. I have read a few older posts about Bo's , Smoke Berkeley, and Smokey J's and would appreciate any recent opinions on which of these is currently serving the best and most authentic brisket and ribs.
I was a fan of the old Flint's and have since bought a Fatboy and become pretty serious about my home-made que. As a result, I don't eat restaurant que that often and almost never in our area. On a trip to St. Helena last week, I probably had the best ribs outside of Texas that I have ever tasted at Farmstead. The Chef is from Kansas and was one of the founder's of BarBerQ in Napa. He left because he had no place to install his dream smoker which they allowed him to do at Farmstead (an Oyler Barbeque pit from Mesquite,TX). St. Louis ribs with just the right amount of hickory, perfectly rubbed, tender and juicy without being mushy, generous portions and a mild blue-cheese coldslaw that I found to be a good complement (the 'Napa Valley' touch :-). Overall, it was an impressive que experience and I will certainly be back.
Unfortunately, making the drive up to St. Helena is not an option for my dinner with the Texan this week, which is why I have posted this question.
I'm a Texan who grew up in a BBQ family (rig and all) living in the 510 for 4 years. Just took a crew of visiting Texans to Phat Matt's on Telegraph and all agreed it was delicious. Brisket is full-flavored, smoke ringed, and their sauce is delicious. Pulled pork is a hit as well though more Carolina style. Ribs are also really well smoked and meaty. No throw-away sides. My dad, who is in a traveling BBQ club, said it ranks high for him too.
J's -- tips are good, meat not as smokey as I would like - too light, no rings. Sometimes flavor seems on top rather than in the food. Have had some super great nights there.
Looney's -- I feel bad driving by. Just wasn't too my liking at all.
B-Side-- I'm waiting a bit. I trust Tany Holland implicitly though. Brown Sugar Kitchen just got better and better for me.
Tried Smoke on San Pablo. Liked my chopped beef sandwich, but need to go back to try more.
Just got back from my dinner at B-Side, so here are my impressions while they are fresh...
First a few impressions about the location and ambiance - while the neighborhood is not one of the better parts of Oakland, the restaurant is clean, well organized and nicely decorated. The staff is very friendly, enthusiastic, and eager to please. Service was excellent. The patrons are an eclectic mix that make the environment feel very comfortable and I would not hesitate to take another business colleague to eat there again. At least compared to the old Flint's, this is a much nicer eating environment (I know, I know - no one ever went to Flint's for the environment!) and I would give them an 8 out of 10 (at least for Barbeque joints) similar to the old T-Rex in Berkeley (but much smaller).
I was with a colleague from Texas and here is what we tried:
1 full order of brisket (1/2 each) - $18
1 pulled pork sandwich with hot vinegar sauce (split) - $8.50
1 half order Jerk Spiced Baby Backs (4 ribs - 2 each) - $9
1 half order Dark and Stormy St. Louis Ribs (4 ribs - 2 each) - $10
1 sideYukon Gold Potato Salad - $4
1 fresh berry tart with cinnamon whipped cream - $??This was a perfect amount of food for the two of us but with three pints of beer total and taxes and tip, the meal cost $75, which struck both of us as too high. For a total of $50 or maybe even $60, we might have felt the food was fairly priced, but $75 struck both of us as too high by 20-35%.
Individual reviews:
Brisket - the B-Side brisket is the best best brisket I have ever had in a barbeque joint - nice bark, goo 3/16" smoke ring (properly pink), wonderfully moist and tender (the fat could have been slightly more rendered, but much better a bit too moist than a bit too dry), the seasoning was perfect, allowing the beef flavor to fully come through and the sauce on the side complemented nicely when desired. The sides were a small bowl of pickled vegetables including carrots and cauliflower (which was pretty nondescript but a pleasant diversion) and a thick piece of sourdough toast which was a nice starch complement. I would have to put the B-Side brisket right up there as competition-grade and I give then a 10 out of 10. At $18 it is not inexpensive, but for the amount of food and the quality, it is worth it (though for that price, I would have preferred a small portion of potato salad as an included side, rather than the piece of toast). If I go back to B-Side again, it will be for the brisket - this is their sweet spot. Both myself and my colleague from Texas (who knows brisket) rated the B-Side brisket as among the best we have ever tasted and gave it a 10 out of 10.
Ribs - both the baby back and St Louis ribs were a big disappointment. They get some credit for trying to spice them in an interesting and unusual way but these ribs were overcooked and dried out, over-spiced to the point that the pork could not be tasted, and there was very little meat on them.at $9 and $10 for 4 dried-out meatless ribs each, we both felt the ribs were a rip-off. Especially after having just come from Farmstead in St Helena where I have had the best restaurant ribs I have ever tasted, these ribs were substandard. Both my Texan colleague and I commented that we would prefer the average ribs from a Tony Roma's or any other chain to the ribs served by B-Side and we both give their ribs a 3 out of 10.
Pulled Pork Sandwich - I have only occasionally had pulled pork in a restaurant and it has never come close to the pulled pork I smoke at home, so my standards are probably higher than most. That being said, the pulled-pork sandwich was very average for a restaurant - very stringy and slightly dried out and overspiced to the point that the pork flavor could not be tasted (which might be partly our fault as we selected the 'spicy vinegar' sauce). At $8.50 it was fairly priced for the amount of food but we both gave the pulled pork sandwich a 5 out of 10 as being nothing out of the ordinary.
Potato Salad - another disappointment. More 'spiced mash potatoes' than potato salad, the flavor was good but the texture was wrong (completely blended like mashed potatoes rather than chunky as it should be) and was also too dry for my taste. The flavor and spicing were good enough that I will give it a 5 out of 10, but for $4 a helping, they should be able to make a much better potato salad than this.
Berry Tart - this was their special of the evening and I am happy to report that we ended our meal n a high note - the berry tart was excellent - fresh, tart, complemented nicely by the cinnamon whipped cream. I am not sure what we paid for it as it is not on the menu I took home, but it was a delightful way to end the meal and it was probably the best dessert I have had in a barbeque joint. 9 out of 10.
As I have already said, I will go back to B-Side again but only for the brisket. The pulled pork sandwich for lunch may be worth an occasional try as well but the brisket is where you can find a heart-of-texas barbeque experience here in the East Bay. Avoid the ribs until they learn how to cook them to tender without drying them out and tone down the spice so that you can taste the flavor of the pork (I had asked for my sauce on the side but they 'don't do it that way). Overall, I really liked this place and I am rooting for them. If they can learn to perfect ribs the way they have perfected brisket, they will develop a growing and loyal clientele. For the prices they are charging, they should review the sides they are including and the size of the portions (especially the ribs) since we both left feeling a bit ripped-off (except for the brisket) and that is never a good way to build a successful business...
re: fafrd
I'm a Texan who has lived between Texas and the Bay Area for a long time, and I totally agree with fafrd's review of B-Side. Brisket: Awesome. Everything else: Not so much, especially considering the price. I'll add that the collard greens were way undercooked and weirdly spicy to the point of being inedible. Still, I would go back. Only for the brisket though.
I'm not sure that's the best use of a Texan visitor's stomach capacity. Might be a little like taking a Californian to Dallas's best dim sum.
I haven't had any really good spare ribs or St. Louis ribs in the East Bay since T-Rex went downhill.
I was impressed by Smoke's brisket. Lunch only. http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/820072
I've had great brisket at Uncle Willie's but haven't been there in a few years.
Smokey J's not so much, I liked their rib tips but they dropped those from the menu. Now they make only baby backs. Why does anyone make baby backs? Brisket was not as good as Smoke's. Fantastic sauce. http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/789133
The latest buzz is about B Side in Oakland, I haven't been there yet. http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/823501
I haven't tried Great American in Alameda, either.
Looney's did not impress me at all.
Relatively recent report on Bo's: http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/4848...
There are so many regional traditions that simply saying "authentic" doesn't mean anything to me.
re: Robert Lauriston
Robert, thanks for the toughtful and comprehensive reply.
My Texan colleague and I have eaten ribs together in Melbourne, FL at a place called 'Smokey Bones' and while we both rated them as very average (and typical), I'm sure we can do better here in the East Bay. He's heard so much about good Oakland BBQ (probably from Flint's glory days) that I need to do the best I can. From the recent reviews it sounds like BO's has gone downhill (and I was not thrilled about the idea of driving to Lafayette for dinner anyway), and Smokin J's sounds like it is very inconsistent and can be hit-or-miss... So I think we are going to try BSide, both because it is relatively new, does not yet have too many reviews, and what I have read, sounds pretty promising. Will let everyone know what I think after our dinner...
p.s. if you have not yet been to Farmstead in St. Helena for St. Louis ribs, I highly recommend it. Finally managed to upload the photo I took of their smoker... It's too long of a drive to make a trip just for the BBQ, but if you are ever up that way I do not think you will be dissapointed
re: fafrd
Flint's went downhill around 15 years ago, that's a long time for Oakland to be coasting on its repuatation. The only place I know to get ribs close to that good around here these days is Memphis Minnie's.
Have you seen the reports about Double D? Seems like one of those places where you have to be lucky or magic to catch them open.
I think Smokey J's is consistent, they just don't make spareribs and there's better brisket around. Their Frito pie with pulled pork is awesome.
Everett & Jones makes great hot links. Their other stuff's passable but not impressive.

Illinoisans are consuming less beer
BY STEFANO ESPOSITO Staff firstname.lastname@example.com July 2, 2012 12:50PM
The Joliet Area Historical Museum will host a raft and import beer tasting will be from 5:30 to 9 p.m. Nov. 15 at the museum, 204 N. Ottawa St. in downtown Joliet. Guests can sample a vast array of handcrafted premium and import beers and ciders from mor
Article Extras
Updated: August 4, 2012 6:20AM
At a time when you might think they would need something in which to drown their sorrows, Illinoisans are drinking less beer. According to the Washington-based Beer Institute, brew consumption annually in the state dropped by three six-packs per person between 2007 and 2011. But don't worry, Illinoisans can still hold their heads up high — only five other states drink more beer per capita than this one. Joel Meister, 43, a Wicker Park bartender, has a hard time believing the stats, which show that each person in the state last year drank, on average, 53 six packs. "You're kidding?" Meister said, enjoying an evening off and a cold one at Michael and Louise's Hop Leaf bar in Andersonville. "I know how much people drink on average. ... If there's a shortage or decline in people drinking beer in the last five years, I would have bet my right hand that wasn't the case." So what's behind the numbers? Several calls to the Beer Institute were not returned Monday. But some drinkers at the Hop Leaf guessed the dip may be related to the economic downturn. After all, beer may help ease the pain of the recession but it is not a necessity, they reasoned. Still, Ryan Lopez, 36, of Andersonville, who now works at the Field Museum, recalled working at a Lincoln Square restaurant a few years back. "I never sold more liquor than on Sept. 11," Lopez said.

Charge in minutes, for free
Tesla Superchargers allow Model S owners to travel for free between cities along well-traveled highways in North America and Europe. Superchargers provide half a charge in as little as 20 minutes and are strategically placed to allow owners to drive from station to station with minimal stops.
Today – 14 stations
North America
Today – 80 stations
Coast to coast travel now possible
2014 – 80% of the US population and parts of Canada
2015 – 98% of the US population and parts of Canada
Superchargers are located near amenities like roadside restaurants, cafes, and shopping centers. Road trippers can stop for a quick meal and have their Model S charged when they're done.
How it works
Tesla Superchargers represent the most advanced charging technology in the world, capable of charging Model S significantly faster than most public charging stations. You can replenish half a charge in as little as 20 minutes, for free. It works by delivering DC power directly to the battery using special cables that bypass onboard charging equipment.
Select stations utilize canopies covered with solar panels to offset energy use and provide shade. Over the next few years, we plan to cover more stations in sunny locales with solar canopies as part of our commitment to the environment.
A properly equipped Model S can charge for free at any Supercharger once enabled, unlike gas stations that require you to pay for each fill-up. Supercharging is included in every Model S with an 85 kWh battery, and can be added to any 60 kWh Model S as an option. Simply pull up and plug in, take a quick bathroom or food break, and get back on the road.
Questions or Comments? Send an email to email@example.com
Optimal ChargingThe fastest way to replenish your Model S is to charge to 80% state of charge, which is enough for travel between Supercharger stations. Charging the final 20% takes approximately the same amount of time as the first 80% due to a necessary decrease in charging current to help top-off cells. It's somewhat like turning down a faucet in order to fill a glass of water to the top without spilling.

credit: Lockheed / caption: cancelled? but it could fly in 2013 says Lockheed
The total annihilation of the Constellation programme with the culling of the Orion crew exploration vehicle and any vestigal remains of the Ares V cargo launch vehicle was a surprise for this blogger. Despite the prospects for Constellation beginning to look bad last year with the Review of US human spaceflight plans Lockheed Martin officials could still be seen smiling at the technical conferences I attend while Ares contractors were obviously not happy bunnies
And that big smile on Lockheed's employees' faces seemed justified because, for what has felt like forever, we have been hearing that a commercial provider could deliver crew and cargo to the International Space Station but something else would take the brave explorers beyond low Earth orbit. Throughout all of the kerfuffle over the cancellation of Constellation in the last few days this blog has not spotted (correct me if I'm wrong) any one asking the question, what are the astronauts travelling beyond LEO to travel in?
credit: Boeing / caption: Boeing's commercial crew capsule, so that's what happened to the Northrop/Boeing Orion
click on any of the images in this blog post to see larger versions in the same browser window Think about it, your commercial provider will have designed a capsule thermal protection system (TPS) for re-entering the atmosphere at just under 17,500mph but now you're heading into the cosmos on this "flexible path" as NASA calls it to visit an asteroid or circumnavigate the Moon or deploy or service a telescope at L1 or L2 - and then you have to head home at speeds well in excess of 17,500mph. How confident would you feel about your TPS?
This is the situation Obama's space plan has left the US exploration efforts in. A propulsion R&D project for an unknown "heavy lift" rocket of the future, other unspecified technology efforts and a commercial competition for LEO access, only
There is no manned spacecraft for leaving Earth orbit. Oh but you can use a "block II" of the commercial capsule I hear someone out there cry
Uh oh I reply. Hasn't anyone learned already that unless you get your specifications right at the beginning you're just looking for a world of cost and schedule overruns? I guess not
Assuming your LEO access rocket, whatever that will be, can lift this beefier beyond Earth orbit capsule and your happy to accept a smaller crew count for the longer trips I guess you can stick with the same outer mold line but your TPS, service module and crew capsule innards are all going to be very very different
Hello extensive redesign, hello doubling your costs to produce "block II". This should not sound like a swipe at commercial providers, it is not, it is just a reflection upon the realities of designing a spacecraft for one order of magnitude of re-entry heat flux when another order of magnitude of heat flux is just a few years down the road
You've got it all wrong, voices from the blogosphere shout, the heavy lift will take the beyond LEO capsule into orbit, it will be a new more effective design enabled with the technologies developed under the research programme Obama wants to enact
That is an argument, and with the Congressional backlash good arguments are going to be needed, but what timing is envisaged for this new path of exploration and how does this mystery capsule fit in with it?
NASA administrator Charles Bolden says tiger teams are hard at work analysing the needs for the "flexible path's" many missions. Somehow I think a manned spacecraft that can keep at least a crew of three alive for weeks at a time is going to be in that mix somewhere
And where will the money for that Orion redux come from?

RECOMMENDED: Full coverage of Gay Pride
For years, NYC's queer scene was absurdly compartmentalized—not only were the various initials of LGBT partying separately, there were were enough subcategories (bears! baby dykes! art fags! etc.!) in each group to use up the whole alphabet. Today, we all get along quite well, and mingle regularly at events all over the city—which is awesome! But sometimes we still want to party with people we want to fuck, and people who want to fuck us back. Hence, the tenth annual Rapture on the River women's dance, launched as an alternative to the boy-heavy Dance on the Pier. Happening conveniently after the Dyke March, this year's Rapture features music from DJ Dimples and the immensely popular Whitney Day, a flock of sexy dancers and a sweaty crowd filled with girls who (unlike attendees at that other dance) don't have to worry about work in the morning. For more information, go to nycpride.org.

On the surface, it seems like an unfair fight -- 24 on one. But that's what it might take some of world's biggest mobile carriers if they hope to defeat the reigning king of mobile app distribution, Apple.
The carriers have banded together to create the 'Wholesale Applications Community'. The goal: make it possible for developers to build applications that work across handsets and carriers. The 24 carriers participating in the Wholesale Applications Community have three billion subscribers combined, and the initiative is also receiving support from the GSMA, which is made up of handset manufacturers LG Electronics, Samsung and Sony Ericsson.

SALINA, Kan. (AP) _ Authorities have been warning Salina residents about two scams working in the area.
The Salina Journal reports one of the scams involves phone calls and text messages saying the person has won a gift certificate to major retailers. The Better Business Bureau says the scam is being used to solicit private information, including Social Security numbers.
A second scam is a secret-shopping letter containing a Better Business Bureau seal, but is not accredited by the organization. The letter is accompanied by a fraudulent check for nearly $3,000 which the recipient is asked to deposit using a debit card. The recipient is told to then go to Western Union to wire $2,300 back to the company.
The Better Business Bureau says the check will not clear the bank.

By Dana Griffin
WARWICK, RI- Family and friends held a candlelight vigil for 66-year-old Jack Fay. Two months ago, Fay's body was found inside the Warwick City Park, stuffed in a trash barrel.
Candles glow along a trail inside the park as family, friends, and community members honor the life of Jack Fay.
"Our family has been shocked and devastated and we're very sad and going through this grieving process and it's nice to know that there has been a community that's been affected by this as well," said Fay's daughter, Meaghan Fay.
The 6-foot-3 runner was a Vietnam War veteran who earned a Purple Heart. He loved this park and his daughter says he had no enemies.
"He was a creature of habit. He did run in the park at the same time everyday; whether he was targeted in that way we don't know, but we don't believe at all that he knew the person who did this," said Fay.
The pain of knowing how he was found, yet not knowing how to find the killer, has left residents very uneasy.
Deb Healey said, "Yes, we're afraid. I used to walk here all the time, and my brothers, all the kids in the neighborhood, all the kids around here. We forged these paths."
Family members hope they can bring attention to this unsolved murder. They told people tonight that Fay put up a fight during the attack. The suspect may have been scratched or bruised. It's also likely the suspect got poison ivy back in May that's just now clearing up.
Anyone with information is asked to call police.

THE FUTURE IS NOW: iPhone App Provides Instant Video Translations Of Foreign Signs
Word Lens is a $5 iPhone app that provides a streaming translation of whatever you're pointing your phone at (i.e. road signs, menus, etc). It's pretty much the technology of the future because, let's not kid ourselves, no child born after 2000 will bother learning any language but text-talk. Isn't that right you little dipshits?!
At the moment, the app only translates words from Spanish to English and vice-versa. Imagine how language barriers will crumble when we get Chinese, French and German to English.
There's a video demo of the technology after the jump that looks pretty amazing provided it's real and not all smoke and mirrors. And speaking of smoke and mirrors -- meth and coke, amirite?! No, I'm not -- drugs are bad. Except alcohol, which shouldn't even be considered a drug as much as it should be added to the bottom of the food pyramid. *ahem* FDA. YOU APPROVED BONER PILLS!
Hit the jump for a 1:00 demo.

Karmin Lyrics
Karmin is a collision of Nick's Classic Rock upbringing and
Jazz education (a trained trombonist) and Amy's R&B
influence and Pop background. Together they found music at
it's simplest form, percussion and voice. With the addition
of guitar, Karmin pulls the listener back to a time where
music was sincere and honest. Simplicity is key with this
Nick and Amy met at Berklee College of Music in Boston by
way of small town lives in Old Town, Maine and Seward,
Nebraska. They began writing songs together to meet the
demands of school projects, but later took on the name

Publix customer steals eyeglass case containing $500 in cash
Police try to ID man who picked up case, walked out of store
Police are trying to identify a man who stole an eyeglass case containing $500 from another customer at a Publix in Port St. Lucie.
The theft occurred Saturday at the Publix on Port St. Lucie Boulevard.
Port St. Lucie police said a woman went to the store to wire money to a family member. While she was waiting for the cashier, she stepped aside to play the lotto and set her eyeglass case on the counter.
By the time the woman realized she left the case on the counter, it was gone.
Police said surveillance video showed a man making a purchase at the same counter pick up the eyeglass case and leave the store, walking past the woman.
Anyone who recognizes the man is asked to call police.

Seems about right
Percy is the biggest black hole in the country and can't defend. If we need size booker needs to play until Gibson learns to pass. Hell at this point I'd rather see ellerman.
That's it.... we've given up. Get Percy out of there... NOW! He is worthless. Booker is 10 times better than that crap. We better pull our heads out quick or this is going to get ugly folks.
It's going to be one of those nights...my god
Road woes continue my goodness we are terrible away from Hilton
Texas isn't this good. We certainly aren't this bad, and that includes the road. It wouldn't hurt to have someone defending Percy on the offensive end. Or sit him down and give Booker some time.
Since we are an elite team now, let's go get that One Cyclone Moment. Make this one for the ages! http://rememberingdoria.wordpress.com/

Two observations so far. The refs aren't calling crap on Texas when we go inside. Even worse, our players don't recognize a double team for anything. Every possession someone is open and its all about individual play.
Make your freethrows.
This team will NOT make an NCAA tourney run, even if we make the tourney. Why? There mental aptitude towards the game is god awful. I wouldn't trust this team to have a 30 point lead in the second half.
we call percy the black hole. once it goes in it never comes out.
OK, I'm ready to get on board the Percy Sucks train. I held my tongue until now. He's getting worse every game. He was better as a freshman.
Originally Posted by clonedude That's it.... we've given up. Get Percy out of there... NOW! He is worthless. Booker is 10 times better than that crap. We better pull our heads out quick or this is going to get ugly folks. 10x is a stretch. You haven't seen Booker play much lately.
