The AUD and other dollar currencies came under pressures as the Bloomberg Commodity Index sank to fresh five-year lows. The U.S. dollar, meanwhile, was steady-to-softer against most other units outside the dollar bloc. EUR-USD firmed to an intraday high of 1.2867 during Asian trade, before settling around 1.2850 in Europe, about 20 pips on Friday's New York closing level. USD-JPY recovered the 109.00 handle in London trade after dipping under here in ... Read More ►

After a hectic week, FX trade was fairly quiet in N.Y. on Friday, though the dollar was for the most part, stronger. EUR-USD made a marginal trend low, touching 1.2831, as USD-JPY bounced from 108.60 lows to a peak of 109.10. Yields slipped back slightly as Wall Street faltered moderately. On the data front, leading indicators were the only release, and were generally ignored by markets. Meanwhile, firmer than expected Canadian CPI saw the CAD rally, with ... Read More ►

This city has numerous area methadone clinics providing methadone replacement therapy and structured counseling. Available via local physicians is suboxone (with buprenorphine) which provides relief from opiate withdrawal symptoms for a significant number of people. Below are links to more info on methadone program effectiveness, opioid dependency, addiction & recovery counseling, and job openings in methadone clinics.
Methadone Maintenance For Opioid Treatment
Opioid Treatment is a category that includes several different interventions or approaches relating to opioid use disorders. People sometimes mistake opioid treatment for "opioid detox" when they are technically two different processes.
Opioid detox refers to the process of helping an opioid addicted individual discontinue their use of opioids and be medically monitored as the body withdraws from them. In a supervised setting, a person is typically assisted through a short-term opioid detox (3-10 days) by the administration of various medications used to manage withdrawal symptoms like clonidine (to guard against high blood pressure), vistaril (to reduce nausea and anxiety), and even buprenorphine (to minimize the severity of the opioid withdrawal process).
There are also variations on an opioid detox referred to as a taper. A taper often occurs on an outpatient basis and involves a more gradual reduction in dosage of either methadone or buprenorphine (suboxone) over time. This taper may take as long as 90 days and … Read more
Pregnancy and Opioid Treatment
When a woman is pregnant and addicted to opioids, she faces extraordinary stress and very often a wave of judgment from those around her that is emotionally painful and difficult to deal with. The criticism of others is understandable since no one wants to see an unborn baby placed at risk through the mother's drug use. But this cauldron of angry emotion and public condemnation often overwhelms a pregnant mother, who may already feel guilty, and it pushes her further into isolation and inaction. This isolation only places the mother and unborn baby at greater risk of overdose and possible miscarriage.
Fact: It has been thoroughly researched and the findings conclusive that pregnant opioid-addicted women have a much better chance of carrying their baby to term and having a healthy baby when the mother is receiving medication-assisted treatment. Every day, addicted mothers receiving methadone or buprenorphine give birth to healthy babies that thrive and develop normally.
Methadone and buprenorphine … Read more
BHG Offering Methadone and Suboxone in Memphis
Tennessee is a leading state in the incidence of opioid addiction and opioid overdose. This is most likely a direct result of Tennessee being ranked one of the country's leading states for the prescription of opioids as well as benzodiazepines like xanax and klonopin.
The CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) report that 46 people die every day in the United States from overdose on prescription painkillers. They also have documented that 259 million prescriptions for opioids were written in 2012 alone by U.S. healthcare providers. This stunning proliferation of opioids has sparked national concerns about opioid addiction and why painkillers have been made so readily available.
In Tennessee, Behavioral Health Group (BHG) have responded to the crisis by providing opioid treatment in a variety of Tennessee cities. They currently operate three clinics in Memphis: Memphis North, Memphis Mid-Town, and Memphis South Treatment Centers under the BHG banner.
Naloxone Reverses Opioid Overdose and Saves Lives
More communities across the U.S. are facing the devastation of opioid overdose. The impact on families is profound as they often struggle with questions of "Could we have done more?" and ponder what else must be done to address this growing national epidemic.
Highlighted in the news this week was the heroin overdose death of a Louisville cheerleader and the suspected opioid overdose death of a 27 year old man in North Carolina found slumped behind the wheel of his pick-up truck with an empty bottle of painkillers and a spoon beside him.
Naloxone is an FDA-approved medication that reverses the effects of opioid overdose. It is an opioid antagonist and consequently knocks opiates off of the body's opioid receptor sites thus reversing central nervous system and respiratory depression which are the most dangerous consequences of opioid overdose. In many cases, naloxone quickly restores breathing and allows overdose victims to regain consciousness in a relatively short period of time. Naloxone … Read more
Canadian Press Publishes Article on Benefits of Methadone
Further validating the merits of opioid treatment using methadone is a recent article by The Canadian Press outlining the findings of Canada's Medical Health Officer in British Columbia, Dr. Perry Kendall.
Dr. Kendall's report documents that individuals in opioid substitution therapy are twice as likely to survive compared to those who obtain opioids illegally on the street. Those in opioid addiction therapy were also found to be much more cost effective to society (about $4200 per year for treatment) compared to those with untreated addictions whose costs are estimated to be $45,000 per year collectively in health complications, law enforcement involvement, and other social problems such as loss of income.
The province of British Columbia is currently treating over 15,000 residents for opioid addiction. Their health minister, Terry Lake, is quoted as saying that he was encouraged by the findings in the report and that he knows opioid substitution therapy is not only saving lives, but equates to significant savings … Read more
Methadone and Other Medications
Methadone is FDA-approved for pain management and the treatment of opioid addiction. Methadone is a relatively safe and highly effective medication when used exactly as prescribed. It is currently in use in the United States and around the world following years of conclusive research on methadone's efficacy and safety.
It is important for patients receiving methadone to know that it can interact with other central nervous system depressants like alcohol and benzodiazepines such as xanax, klonopin, valium, and librium as well as similarly acting non-benzodiazepine agents like ambien (a popular sleep aid). When methadone is mixed with these other medications, there is an increased risk of sedation and loss of consciousness. In extreme cases, individuals mixing methadone and other CNS depressants have gone into respiratory failure.
For those who have chosen to receive methadone in an opioid treatment program, they will discover that a proper dose of methadone not only eliminates opiate withdrawal & cravings, but will also block … Read more

(the transcript from that presser had better be in bold font and all caps)
Welp folks looks like we have a new member to join Wisconsin in the 'Don't kill myself' books book club! Stand up Iowa State! I'd say this is mind boggling but honestly I'm not shocked. ESPN spends a whole week talking about the struggles of Mac Brown and the Texas program, then they have Texas on for a prime time game and the officials gift them an extra play to score the wining touchdown. Even though no whistle blew until AFTER the running back had the ball stolen from his hands like a marble rye And, shock of shocks, NO explanation as to how it's even remotely possible that Texas got the ball back! Just a good old fashion 'the ruling on the field stands.' You know what needs to be instituted? Referee post game press conferences. Just so we get some sort of rational for these calls. 'So what happened at the end of the game with the Iowa State fumble recovery?' 'Haha, you guys are gonna LAUGH. Look what happened is we called forward progress but literally no one blew their whistle which is the only way to end a play! Isn't that weird? Anyhow I think we all just thought the other one would blow a whistle and before you know it that kid from Iowa State had the ball! Haha, ahhhhhhhh poor kid. Thought he had won the biggest home game of the year for his team. Ah well. We'll see you next week!'

A cliff-side mansion on the Big Island in Hawaii has a new owner who got a smoking deal on the property. The "Waterfalling Estate" was originally listed at 26-and-a-half million dollars. The winning bid at a recent auction came in at just five-point-75 million. The mansion sits on nine acres of land and comes with a 450-seat tennis stadium, a nine-hole golf course and a rooftop helipad. Check out this video for a closer look...
Why you don't want a large tax refund explained in Peeps
Making small change continues to be a huge money-losing business for the American taxpayer! Last year for the eighth year in a row, we actually lost money making pennies and nickels thanks to rising metal prices that have made the cost nearly double. Yep, it actually costs more than a penny to make a penny. For real. This will be the third year in a row those losses top $100 million! President Obama mentioned the possibility of using cheaper metals to make the coins in his budget last week, but of course he'll face stiff opposition from industry groups, especially the zinc producers who provide 97.5% of what goes into a penny. Canada got rid of the penny last year. Should we?
At the start of this video, I felt pretty disgusted. I had assumed this was a sick prank about tricking a man into thinking he had won a significant amount of money.
I was then pleasantly surprised.

There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about money. Do I have enough money to grab lunch with a friend today? How much do I owe in daycare this week? Can I afford those shoes I really want? How much can I spend on that birthday present for my niece without having to eat Ramen this week?
I know I'm not alone. Between daycare costs, putting gas in the car and food on the table things can get pretty tight at times. Here are a few tips that will help you trim the fat so you can have that cash to get those incredible shoes once in a while or go out on a date night.
Canada stopped producing their penny in 2012 but the U.S. penny may not be going away any time soon. One reason Canada stopped making pennies was because of the high cost of producing them. The U.S. Mint reports it costs 1.99 cents to produce a penny. In 2011 the cost was 2.41 cents per penny. To help reduce costs, the composition of pennies has changed over time. Years ago they were made of 100% copper. Today's pennies are composed of mostly zinc and only 2.5% copper.
Some economists are saying it's time for the United States to abandon the penny. They say several countries have reported no major problems after eliminating their penny or equivalent coins, but others are saying not so fast. One study claims eliminating the penny would cost consumers between $2 billion and $4 billion every two years because prices would be rounded up. Also, nickels would be in higher demand and they cost even more to produce. The U.S. Mint reports the cost of producing a nickel is more than eleven cents. Some say small charities that rely on penny drives would suffer and the zinc industry would be hurt by eliminating the penny.
By the way, if you think it would be a good idea to melt your pennies and nickels and sell the metal for profit, keep in mind there are laws against doing that.

The Honest Tea company recently conducted an experiment to find out how honest people were based on geographical location, gender, hair color, and other things. They set up unmanned kiosks in all 50 states and the District of Columbia that featured cold beverages to be paid for on the honor system. The experiment was unscientific, but the results are interesting.
Alabama and Hawaii were the most honest with 100% of the people paying for their beverages. The District of Columbia was last with an 80 percent honesty rating.

President Barack Obama on Monday nominated longtime economic adviser Jason Furman as chairman of the president's Council of Economic Advisers.
Furman, who the president referred to
as "one of the most brilliant economic minds of his generation," is more
famously known as one of the chief architects of the president's
multi-billion stimulus program and the Affordable Care Act.
If confirmed by the Senate, Furman would replace Alan Krueger, who is returning to his former post as a professor at Princeton University. Obama praised Krueger, saying he's driven by the principle that no full-time worker in America should be impoverished.
The council is one of two of the president's main sources of economic advice. The other is the National Economic Council, where Furman currently serves as principal deputy director.
Furman's research has been focused on fiscal and tax policy, Social Security and monetary policy. Furman, 42, worked as an economist in the Clinton White House and before that was a senior adviser at the World Bank.
The White House economic adviser was also one of the chief critics of the March 1 automatic spending cuts ("sequester"), warning loudly and often that the cuts to government spending would be disastrous.
The FairTax is a national sales tax that treats every person equally and
allows American businesses to thrive, while generating the same tax revenue
as the current four-million-word-plus word tax code. Under the FairTax, every
person living in the United States pays a sales tax on
purchases of new goods and services, excluding necessities due to the prebate. The FairTax rate after necessities is 23% and equal to the lowest current
income tax bracket (15%) combined with employee payroll taxes (7.65%), both
of which will be eliminated."
About two years ago I had the honor to attend a small financial presentation given by Dave Ramsey. It was very informative and enjoyable up to the point where he told the audience that they "should never, ever, buy Whole Life Insurance".
I understand why Dave said this. He's talking to a special niche of the public. Typically they are trying to get out of debt and every penny they earn is used to get themselves back on their feet and get to a place where they can begin saving money. For those individuals I would suggest that buying Whole Life Insurance should be a goal to achieve a bit later when financial stability is achieved. But under NO circumstances should a financial professional that actually understands how money truly works EVER say that Whole Life Insurance is a bad financial choice.
If I were to go into all the reasons I say this, you'd get bored, stop reading and probably begin hitting yourself in the head with a hammer. So I'll just say this; Term Insurance is like renting an apartment. Whole Life Insurance is like buying a home. One is certainly cheaper than the other in the short term, but in the long run, renting is a complete waste of money and owning a home, if done right, builds an asset you can use later. Whole Life Insurance provides SO many more options for you to use your money at a later date and can even be designed so as to not cost you ANY additional out of pocket cost.
Many financial speakers like Dave Ramsey speak to a large audience and use large sweeping generalities. He's great when it comes to establishing a budget and formulating a strategy for getting out of debt. But when it comes to what to do with YOUR money, you need to talk one on one with a professional that understands the economy and how to coordinate all the financial aspects of your life to work together.
There are many out there… you just have to look carefully.
I am no longer in the business, so if you want to ask for more information on what to look for in an advisor, feel free to email me at email@example.com.
Have you seen the 52 Week Money Challenge? It is a way to save money by putting away a small amount of money each week, as the year progresses, the money you save increases so that by the end of the year you will have saved $1,378.
Perfect for Christmas shopping, paying off debt, vacation planning maybe?
I've heard some say they actually put in more money at the beginning of the year and less at the end when money is tighter for them. I would suggest putting in more money when you have it for times when money is low so you can stay on track.
Almost halfway through the year I know but it isn't too late to start if you haven't already. (It is NEVER too late to try to save money.)
I had never heard of this challenge before but have been told by friends and a co-worker they've done it before and its worked very well for them. No harm in trying it out I guess.
I'm all about trying to save money, especially when I find myself getting in the rut of fast-food, drive thru's and takeout...I feel like I'm throwing money away. I was happy to find some tips from Mindy Crary of Forbes.com. She says the food budget is the single easiest way to reduce expenses and derive more satisfaction out of everything you eat.
Mindy shares these eight easiest ways she found to cut your food budget in half at MSN.com...
Become vegetarian. There are a lot of reasons to eat a plant-based diet, and I like Leo Babauta's post "A Guide to Eating a Plant-Based Diet" for laying out the reasons. Meat is expensive, and although I like a good pot roast every now and then, I am equally happy eating rice and beans and other vegetarian options as the main staples of my weekly routine. You need only four to five recipes to alternate.
Limit alcohol. I dated an alcoholic for a few years and after that time quit drinking almost completely. I rarely keep any alcohol in my home unless I am having friends over or planning a special occasion. No one "needs" alcohol in the home all of the time, and if you do, you might have bigger problems than budgeting.
Quit buying ready-made solutions. I have a friend who is maintaining a gluten-free household, so I know how expensive a gluten-free loaf of bread can be. But if she makes it herself, it costs only a fraction of the retail price. This is true for almost anything you can buy premade (although you won't catch me baking my own bread anytime soon). If you use a lot of something, try to figure out how you can make it yourself in volume. It's cheaper for me to buy bulk steel-cut oats and cook a pot of it for the week than to buy instant oats.
Plan menus two weeks out before grocery shopping. Carve out time in your schedule (about 30 minutes) to plan your breakfasts, lunches, dinners and snacks for the next 10 to 14 days. Start by checking your kitchen cabinets for what you already have on hand, and build your menu to use up cans of soup and other staples. Consider keeping a folder of recipes you want to try. Once you have a completed menu, build your grocery list. Remember to check on toothpaste and other sundries so you don't come back and suddenly notice that one thing you absolutely need.
Grocery-shop three times a month, and stick to your list. People who eat lots of fresh fruits and vegetables always hate this tip. I eat lots of vegetables and fruits too, and I have found that if I bring them home, prep them immediately and keep them in airtight containers, most stuff easily lasts 10 days.
Designate a "meal prep" day. Every 10 days or so, I spend three to four hours cooking big batches of stuff -- rice and beans, morning gruel, root vegetables, a casserole to freeze, etc. I know that if it takes me longer than 45 minutes to prepare a weekday meal, I'll go rogue and order takeout. So I precook lots of stuff to throw into salads or stir-fry, or just so I have something I can pull from the freezer the day before.
Keep a list of what's in the freezer. I might have something really delicious in my freezer but totally forget I have it. So I keep a list on the fridge that I update every 10 to 14 days when I am planning my next round of meals.
Keep comfort food ready to go. There are times when I just don't want to eat as healthfully as I usually do. When I am driving home after a long day, nothing sounds better than takeout. So I keep fixings on hand for things that sound better to me than takeout, like a grilled cheese sandwich or Beecher's Mac & Cheese.
Hope these can help you out like they helped me! :)

THE majority of people enjoy the pleasurable accompaniment of background music when working, studying or carrying out everyday tasks.
The latest research carried out at the University of Wales Institute, Cardiff (UWIC) shows that music can interfere with short-term memory performance regardless of whether we like the music or not.
When students were played music while recalling a list of consonants in their presentation order, they remembered fewer items than when they performed the same task in a quiet environment. It was also found that musical preferences had no bearing on how much the volunteers were able to recall.
For example, whether they were played their favourite Lady Gaga songs or a track they disliked by thrash metal band Death Angel, recall was similar and still poorer than when it was in quiet.
Lead researcher Dr Nick Perham, a lecturer in Psychology at UWIC's Cardiff School of Health Sciences, explained: "The poorer performance of the music and changing-state sounds are due to them containing lots of acoustical variation, the order of which impairs the ability to recall the order of items, via rehearsal, within the presented list. Other tasks and processes that also require the ability to retain order information in the short-term via rehearsal, such as mental arithmetic, may be similarly affected by their performance in the presence of changing-state, background environments."
For this study, which has been published in academic journal Applied Cognitive Psychology, the researchers explored the 'irrelevant sound effect' by requiring participants to perform serial recall (recall a list of eight consonants in presentation order) in the presence of five sound environments – quiet, liked music (eg. Rhianna, Lady Gaga, Stranglers and Arcade Fire), disliked music (by Death Angel), changing-state (a sequence of random digits such as '4, 7, 1, 6') and steady-state ('3, 3, 3').
Recall ability was approximately the same, and poorest, for the music and changing-state conditions and the most accurate recall occurred when participants performed the task in the quieter steady-state environments.
Dr Perham said: "Most people listen to music at the same time as, rather than prior to, performing a task but to reduce the negative effects of background music when recalling information in order, one should either perform the task in quiet or only listen to music prior to performing the task."

PRAIRIE DU CHIEN, WI (WTAQ) - Some of the heavy snow that fell in northwest Wisconsin last week is now flowing down the St. Croix and Mississippi rivers.
That generated flood warnings during the weekend on the Mississippi River at Wabasha, Minnesota across from Buffalo County, and McGregor, Iowa near Prairie du Chien.
The Mississippi is about 4 inches below its flood stage at Wabasha, and a foot below its banks at McGregor. Both spots are expected to go above their flood stages around mid-week, with minor floods predicted.
Mellen in Ashland County had the most snow in last week's storm – just over 21 inches in three days.
Minor floods are also taking place on the Menominee River in Marinette County near McAllister. Forecasters expect the river to return below its banks by Tuesday afternoon.
In southern Wisconsin, flood warnings continue on the Rock River in Rock and Jefferson counties, and the Fox River in Kenosha County.
Most flooding is expected to disappear throughout the week, with mostly dry weather in the forecast. The next chance of rain is from Wednesday through Friday.

ATHENS, GA (RNN) - Two years after the historic April 27 tornado outbreak scarred the Alabama and Mississippi landscape and memorabilia - photos, family letters and more - rained down in yards across the south, new research is shedding light on tornado debris patterns.
In cases of more dangerous debris, that research could help predict fall patterns that might protect property and life.
"Twenty years ago, if a picture landed in your yard, you'd stare at it, wonder 'Who does that belong to?' look for a name on the back, and probably eventually throw it away," said John Knox, associate professor at the University of Georgia.
With people posting pictures to social media, today "It's a completely different situation."
In what Knox says is the most comprehensive study on tornado debris patterns, he and a team of student co-authors analyzed the takeoff and landing points of nearly 1,000 pieces of debris - photos, quilts, even a metal sign - for clues to how debris travels and where it might eventually land.
"The previous most comprehensive study looked at 120 years' worth of newspaper accounts and had only found at most 160-something items. We were way beyond that," he said.
"In the old days, it would have been one object written up in a newspaper. Here we have a wealth of data to keep the error down."
The team gathered their data from photos and items posted to a Facebook page set up by Alabama resident Patty Bullion designed to reunite victims with their memories.
The Facebook page, which has since shut down, allowed those who found photos or other tornado debris in their yards to post pictures and owners to claim the items.
Photos, quilts, family Bibles - nothing was off limits. Some items flew nearly 200 miles before landing in the yards of strangers, often in other states.
Many found their way back home through the power of the internet.
Sometimes, the owners of the memorabilia had died in the storm, leaving relatives the precious artifacts as remaining tokens of loved ones.
In all, nearly 1,700 items were claimed, including a 5-foot metal sign that blew from Smithville, MS.
The sign hung in the Smithville High School football stadium until a tornado destroyed the stadium and lobbed the sign to Russellville, AL, 60 miles away. The sign featured a photo of a former student and high school band member who passed away from bone cancer in 1998.
The sign was identified on the Facebook page within a day and returned to the student's parents.
As Knox's team studied the photos on the page, patterns emerged.
Most of the debris landed approximately 10 degrees to the left of the tornado, except the debris that traveled the farthest.
"What we found from the study was that tornado debris goes in different directions slightly depending on how high up it goes in the thunderstorm," he said.
The items that traveled the farthest, from 150 to 220 miles away from their home base, landed slightly right of the tornado's path.
"What we think happened there was those are objects that went higher in the storm and were affected by the jet stream," he said.
The item that traveled the farthest was a photo from Phil Campbell, AL, that landed in Lenior City, TN, 220 miles away.
Knox says the information on flight paths could come in handy for scenarios in future storms, for instance, in the case of toxic or radioactive debris.
"This is not hypothetical … it's one of those scary disaster scenarios where it's not just the tornado but the debris from the tornado that can cause problems," Knox said.
"It's not that farfetched. These tornadoes were dancing around nuclear power plants in the Tennessee Valley and around medical facilities and such."
And, in time, that data could lead to debris forecasting.
"We aren't there yet. I could envision a day where we'd have a necessity to issue a debris warning. We still need more work on it," he said.
Knox said he has even been asked about possibly of someday using the project to help find victims picked up by storms and thrown from their homes.
"I honestly have never thought about that," he said. "The noise and signal get all muddled up at short distances so I don't know if it would be that effective but there's an application we never thought of."
Knox and his team said they took great care to protect the privacy of those they were studying. The team only researched publicly available photos and did not contact victims.
"The people come first," Knox said.
"These are real lives that have been upended and I think that message came through to the students."
The study was recently published in the Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society.
In all, more than 300 people died in the April 27, 2011 tornado outbreak, according to NOAA.
Many of the tornadoes were EF4 and EF5 tornadoes, the strongest ratings on the Fujita scale, based on intensity.
Smithville, MS, and the Alabama towns of Tuscaloosa, Hackleburg, and Phil Campbell were among the hardest hit.

As we continue to countdown to the August 30th kickoff between Kansas State University and North Dakota State University, I have come up with three players to watch for on the NDSU football team this 2013 season.
Two of the players I will mention are based off what I am hearing from NDSU coaches. The third player is going to be based off what I saw in the spring game. The three players are MJ Stumpf, Esley Thorton and Carson Wentz.
MJ Stumpf – Redshirt Freshman Linebacker
This redshirt freshman from Harvey, N.D. impressed me during the Green and Gold game this spring. An all-state quarterback in high school, Stumpf will asked to help build the depth at linebacker for the Bison.
Much has been made about the fact that NDSU started the same three linebackers for all 15 games last year. The reason had more to do with lack of experience in the back-ups than lack of talent.
This year cannot be the same for last year's starters Travis Beck, Carlton Littlejohn and Grant Olson. Stumpf appeared to be someone ready to step up and see significant time on the field. I am not looking for this player to challenge one of those three for a starting spot but at least a couple snaps in the fourth quarter of a close game.
Linebacker is the one position that was hard pressed to find players ready to play last year. With questions about Beck's shoulder already coming up during fall camp, the time for younger linebackers to step up is now.
Esley Thorton –
Redshirt Junior Linebacker
Speaking of the linebackers, this Bismarck native has received the most amount of praise from coaches during the fall camp.
"Esley Thorton has been playing pretty well," said head coach Craig Bohl. Okay, so that is not something to "write home" about but I still find it intriguing Thorton was the only linebacker mentioned by name when Bohl was asked about depth at the position.
"We got Esley Thorton that we think is doing a really good job," said defensive coordinator Chris Klieman when asked the same "depth at linebacker" question. Again, nothing really amazing being said about him but it is something to take away when coaches are noticing the player specifically.
Thorton is one of 12 back-up linebackers on the NDSU roster this season. That is a lot of competition for just an opportunity to standout to the coaches. If Thorton is doing things that coaches are saying even small praises about, I think he is warranted a player to watch for this season.
Carson Wentz –
Redshirt Sophomore Quarterback
"GUNDERSON! WHY DO YOU HATE BROCK JENSEN?" The reason I have Wentz listed here has nothing to do with a non-existent hatred for Jensen. This has more to do with something people saw happen last year.
Wentz played a handful of snaps in eight games throughout the 2012 season. Much of those snaps were nothing more than Wentz taking snaps during garbage times in games that had already been decided but you could see the talent was there.
He has a solid arm and is quicker than his size would lead you to believe. "I feel very comfortable with Carson going in at any time during the ball game," said coach Bohl about his back-up quarterback.
That might be the most telling sentence of this whole preview. He is coach Bohl's back-up quarterback. Nobody for NDSU is thinking Wentz will start over Jensen this year but the confidence is high on the sophomore. Don't be surprised if you see Wentz get snaps during meaningful parts of the game instead of the fourth quarter of a blow-out.

Those rumble strips that the Minnesota Department of Transportation has been adding to roads to keep drivers from inadvertently crossing lanes are making too much of a racket for some residents.
It turns out the deep grooves cut into the highway to keep drivers from dozing off at the wheel are working too well because they wake up neighbors as they try to nod off.
"We knew when we moved in we were moving next to a highway, that was a given," explained Brad Johnson. "We never expected rumble strips -- the constant noise, 100 times a day."
Hundreds of miles of rural roads bear rumble strips to alert motorists that weaving out of their lane. In fact, MnDOT made it their policy to add the safety feature any time a rural, undivided highway with a speed limit of 55 mph is resurfaced.
When the 20-mile stretch of Highway 5 between Chanhassen and Norwood-Young America was resurfaced, it caused a massive traffic headache. Afterward, a new kind of headache emerged.
"There were nights we couldn't have our window open," Johnson said. "It was difficult at times to have a conversation in the back yard. It sounded like a B-52 bomber going overhead."
Alan Taylor told FOX 9 News he was woken up at least twice a week in the middle of the night.
"They are very loud and they start very suddenly," he said. "It's a shock to the system."
Most of the complaints came from homes that backed up to Highway 5, but the late-night rumbles could be heard from blocks away.
"I think everybody, MnDOT included, underestimated the impact on neighbors," said Victoria Mayor Tim O'Connor. "The reaction was pretty intense. The neighbors were really put out -- the fear of losing value in their homes plus the inability to sleep at night. They couldn't get away from the noise."
In the end, MnDOT decided to remove the rumble strips after residents made noise of their own about them.
"We thought our property values would plummet," Johnson said. "Our peace and quiet would go downhill, and we just thought, 'That's it for the neighborhood.'"
The one-mile stretch of highway that leads into Victoria before the speed limit drops to 35 mph has now been filled in, and O'Connor said he hopes MnDOT will adjust its plan for other towns too.
Carver County also removed some rumble strips on Highway 10 over similar noise complaints.

I cooked a cup of black beans and used them in two dieshes... the first was a quinoa/black beans stuffed pepper on a bed or raw pico de gallo, topped with chipotle quacamole and tofu sour cream.
I turned the rest of the black beans into this chipotle lime soup.
Both of these dishes made two portions and the other portion is in the freezer for a quick meal.
I am so thrilled with the election of President Obama! I feel like our country has shifted and that things will change for the better. This is a new world we are living in.... how fabulous!

Real Name
Dwayne Johnson
Date of Birth
May 2, 1972
Place of Birth
While the speculations had long been out there, the Rock has finally confirmed that he will be starring in The Janson Directive. The movie is based off of a novel by Robert Ludlim, who passed away in 2001 and will not get to see the big screen adaptation of his work. Rock revealed to WWE fans that he will be producing and writing the movie as well.
September 27, 2014
After struggling to choose which role he wanted to play, the Rock has now revealed that he will be portraying Black Adam on the big screen soon. The character is from Marvel. Black Adam is usually a villain, but he has sometimes been utilized as an antihero. Rock also had the option to play Captain Marvel, but he eventually opted to play the nemesis of the lead character instead.
September 3, 2014
During a recent interview with Alternative Nation, Hornswoggle was asked about his backstage heat with the Rock. The WWE star revealed some details about an incident that took place when the Rock was revealed as the special guest host of Wrestlemania 27. Hornswoggle stated that the Rock confused him for a Make a Wish kid. Rock apparently tapped him on the shoulders and asked if he had a good time at the show.
August 29, 2014
Reports are surfacing that there is some backstage heat between Vince McMahon and Triple H at the moment over the main event of Wrestlemania 31. McMahon wants Brock Lesnar to defend the title against the Rock, as he feels that those two guys would produce the biggest draw of a match for WWE. HHH, however, wants the company to elevate Roman Reigns by having him challenge Lesnar.
August 18, 2014
Since Hercules has been deemed a bit of a disappointment, there are talks that the Rock might miss out on some opportunities in Hollywood. Rumors have it that the WWE legend is not all that concerned. His popularity has not taken that big of a hit, and it should increase when the next Fast and Furious movie is released. Studios are still interested in the Rock as a leading man.
August 15, 2014
"My mom and my cousin, Savelina Fanene, were struck head on by a drunk driver this week. They lived. First reaction is to find the person who did this and do unrelenting harm to them, but then you realize the most important thing is my family lived through this, and we can hug each other that much tighter these days. Hug your own family tighter today and be grateful you can tell them you love them." - Rock talks about how a DUI almost killed his family
August 10, 2014
While the movie did not dominate in the United States as the studios had hoped, Hercules has done well overseas. Rock has now informed the fans that the movie has topped the box offices in India, Russia and Australia. The movie has generated almost the same amount from international viewers as it has domestic ones. There's still talks that the movie might barely break even for the studios, which would definitely not be a good sign for the Rock.
August 9, 2014
Some potentially bad news for the Rock. His new Hercules movie is struggling at the box office. During it's second weekend in the theaters, sales dropped by approximately 70 percent. There are talks that the movie might barely break even, minus the the huge cost of advertising. The budget for the film was around $100 million, so the Rock's drawing power might take a bit of a hit.
August 2, 2014
Through his Twitter account, the Rock informed fans that his new Hercules movie is now the top film in Australia. Several analysts are predicting that the movie will be a big flop in the United States because the marketing campaigns have not really generated a huge buzz. There have also been a lot of bad reviews, which might prompt people to avoid the movie.
July 25, 2014
While doing an interview in Cleveland recently to promote his upcoming Hercules movie, the Rock was asked about a return to WWE and a potential match against his cousin Roman Reigns. The Hollywood star stated that it would not make sense right now for the match to happen because Reigns is not the top heel in the company. Rock floated the idea of returning as a heel, but that might not be something that WWE is interested in doing because they know that the fans will not root against the popular performer.
July 19, 2014
It is no secret that WWE would love for the Rock to be the centerpiece attraction at Wrestlemania 31. However, the possibility of that happening is becoming more and more unclear by the day. The studios have decided to move the release date of Fast and Furious 7, which features Rock in a big role, up a bit. It will now be shown in the theaters a few days after Wrestlemania. That means that the Rock will be needed to travel the world to do promotion for the film. His availability to WWE is in question.
July 10, 2014
Even though he is now one of the most well known movies stars on the planet, the Rock still has a lot of ambitions in life. The former WWE star is now focused on producing movies. He is currently in negotiations with Universal to star in and produce a movie called The Janson Directive. The belief in Hollywood is that this will be a vehicle for Dwayne Johnson to do films that are similar to what Matt Damon did in the Bourne series.
July 9, 2014
Since leaving WWE earlier in the year, CM Punk has remained relatively quiet, making sporadic appearances at NHL and MLB games. The former world heavyweight champion is going to be making a higher profile appearance later on this month. Punk will be the co-host of the kickoff show for the Alternative Press Music Awards, which is being held at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland.
July 9, 2014
While it may be hard for a lot of fans to fathom, WWE may not be able to afford to bring the Rock back into the mix for Wrestlemania 31. The company is far from broke, but they have to be wiser about their spending since the valuation of the company has taken a severe dive. Rock is far from cheap since he has great name value. The two sides might not be able to come to an agreement that would see the legendary performer returning to WWE for another stint.
July 3, 2014
After several weeks down in Australia, the Rock has finally finished filming of the San Andreas movie, which will be about the biggest earthquake to strike mankind. This little bit of information might spark rumors of a WWE return, as he does not have another film on schedule. Rock recently sparked interest within the wrestling community when he stated that he would not return to WWE unless he was paid at least the same amount of money as his last return
June 19, 2014
During a recent interview with the Hollywood Reporter, the Rock revealed that he was willing to come back to WWE if the company were to pay him what he received during 2013 or more. While the confirmed dollar amount was not reported by the company, rumors have it that Rock was paid millions of dollars for a couple of appearances and matches. WWE is trying to save money right now, but the belief is that the company would gladly shell out that money to Rock since he can generate more interest than everyone on their current roster.
June 18, 2014
Since he is easily one of the biggest stars that professional wrestling ever produced, the Rock remains the top choice for WWE when it comes to the Hall of Fame induction ceremony at Wrestlemania 31. However, the company has now focused on Sting as a potential candidate to take the top spot in the class next year in case they are unable to convince Rock to participate in the event.
June 17, 2014
Not too long ago, Rock revealed to the world that his cousin Tamina Snuka was one of the hardest working and most determined people he knows. He noted that she was a single mother of two, who went from being a janitor to being a WWE star. Her determination is showing yet again because Tamina is recovering much quicker than expected from her knee surgery, which was expected to keep her out of action until the end of the year.

May 21, 2014
If there wasn't already a million reasons to like Chris Jericho, here is another. The former WWE star was at the Rock on the Range festival in Ohio this past weekend, performing with Fozzy. When he heard about a female fan being injured during the show, he went and stood with her as she was being checked out by medical personnel by an ambulance.
May 20, 2014
Earlier this month, rumors surfaced that Mickie James and Rikishi were candidates to join the Rock at the hall of fame induction ceremony during Wrestlemania 31. Another name that WWE has reportedly been discussing is Kevin Nash, even though the former world heavyweight champion has been vocally against being inducted.
May 17, 2014
Another interesting name that has surfaced in the rumor mill as a potential hall of fame inductee at Wrestlemania 31 is Rikishi. The belief is that including him in the same class as the Rock, whom WWE is hoping will be the centerpiece induction at the event, makes a lot of sense. There is also the chance that a reconciliation and reunion with Naomi Knight and Jimmy Uso could be a big story.
May 14, 2014
The Samoan presence in WWE has just gotten a little bit stronger, as Savelina Fanene is now under a developmental contract with the company. She is related to the Rock and does have an athletic background. Savelina recently noted on Instagram that she had moved to Orlando, where she will be training for the next year at the WWE Performance Center.
May 10, 2014
When Shawn Michaels began teaming up with Marty Jannetty as the Midnight Rockers, fans across the country immediately criticized them for stealing the gimmicks from Bobby Eaton, Stan Lane, Ricky Morton and Robert Gibson. During a recent interview with Morton and Gibson, however, the Rock 'n Roll Express stated that it was viewed as a compliment. Morton also revealed that Michaels used to ride with and learned from them in the southern territories.
April 26, 2014
Through Instagram, the Rock informed his fans that he has started shooting the new San Andreas film. The movie will be about the biggest earthquake to ever hit the city of Los Angeles. Filming is taking place in Australia, where the former WWE star has been participating in rescue training over the last several days. The movie is expected to draw huge numbers.
April 25, 2014
On their official website, WWE produced a list of the greatest talkers in the history of the business. The top five consisted of Ric Flair, Rock, Dusty Rhodes, Roddy Piper and Steve Austin. The more interesting inclusion, though, is CM Punk, who is listed at #16. The company has not made much mention of him since he walked away a couple of months ago.

April 23, 2014
While speaking to the media in Australia this week, Rock revealed that he wants to be in the next James Bond movie. The former WWE champion is a big fan of Daniel Craig, who plays the title role. Rock also noted that his grandfather once played a villain in a James Bond movie, and he would love to follow in his footsteps.
April 17, 2014
It has been a rather busy month for the Rock. First, he flies into New Olreans to give WWE a hand with Wrestlemania 30. Then, he heads over to England to finalize things with the Hercules movie. Rock also stopped in Dubai to do some promotional work. His next stop is Australia, where the former WWE champion will start shooting the San Andreas movie.
April 15, 2014
After his cameo appearance at Wrestlemania 30, the Rock has headed back to England to put in more work into the Hercules film. While WWE fans were hoping that he would stick around and make a couple of more appearances, the former world heavyweight champion is not expected to make another return for the foreseeable future. WWE is still trying to convince him to come back in 2015.
April 14, 2014
While he only made an in ring appearance at the big pay per view this year, Rock is being penciled in to work a match at Wrestlemania 31. WWE actually wants to build the entire event around him. A hall of fame induction is being discussed as well. As far as opponents are concerned, the top candidate to face the Rock at Wrestlemania is Brock Lesnar.

The death of the Ultimate Warrior has shocked the entire world of professional wrestling. The Rock, who happened to have been at Wrestlemania 30 at the same time as Warrior, posted this message on Twitter about the passing of the former world heavyweight champion.
April 8, 2014
Considering how incredible the show was, WWE should not have any issues with coming up with Wrestlemania 30 highlights to show on Monday Night Raw this week. Brock Lesnar, Undertaker, Hulk Hogan, Steve Austin, Rock, Daniel Bryan, Triple H, Batista, John Cena, Bray Wyatt, Randy Orton, Kofi Kingston, Big Show and Antonio Cesaro provided plenty of memorable Wrestlemania moments.
April 7, 2014
In an almost surreal scene, Wrestlemania 30 started off with Hulk Hogan, Steve Austin and the Rock standing together in the middle of a WWE ring. The three of them were each given time to address the audience before throwing out their respective catchphrases. Then, the Hogan, Austin and Rock all drank beers to the delight of the Wrestlemania crowd.

April 6, 2014
While it was initially believed that he would be filming a video for the pay per view, it now appears that the Rock will actually be on hand for Wrestlemania 30 in person. He has been posting pictures on himself on Twitter, revealing that he was in New Orleans. WWE has been trying to get him back with the company for the last several weeks now.
April 5, 2014
If you're one of those people still hoping to see the Rock at Wrestlemania 30, then you might be in luck, as rumors are heavily stating that he will be making an appearance at the pay per view. However, there are those that believe that it might just be a taped promo. At one point in time, Vince McMahon was hoping that Rock would be working the main event.
April 3, 2014
"I don't know if anybody will ever accomplish what he's accomplished in the heavyweight division in that short amount of time. Had it not been for the unfortunate issue he had to deal with his stomach, who knows what could have happened if he continued to train, and continued to hone in on his skills. What he did was epic and historic." - Rock discusses what Brock Lesnar did in UFC
April 2, 2014
Since the event is being held at a brand new stadium in California next year, WWE wants to have a huge hall of fame induction class at Wrestlemania 31. The Rock is their biggest target, but there are also rumors that management wants Scott Hall, Kevin Nash and Hulk Hogan to be inducted as the nWo that year as well.
March 26, 2014
A picture of Dana White and the Rock watching the UFC fights that took place over the weekend i Brazil. White joked on Twitter that he was watching the even with his puny friend. Rock is playfully looking intense.
March 25, 2014
Since he is one of the most known actors in the entire world right now, the Rock has been heavily sought by Hollywood studios for roles. Both DC and Marvel have expressed interest in the former WWE star playing a superhero in one of their upcoming films. Rock recently revealed that he has agreed to a character with DC Comics, but he is not giving any further details just yet.
March 25, 2014
In order to capitalize on their much younger audience nowadays, WWE has decided to produce a Monopoly game featuring their performers. John Cena, Rock, Undertaker and Randy Orton are featured on the cover, but several of the other stars are expected to be included in the game itself. Interestingly, CM Punk is featured as well.
March 23, 2014
When WWE announced their new Slam City cartoon, the characters announced were John Cena, Mark Henry, Rey Mysterio, Kane, Sheamus, Alberto Del Rio, Dolph Ziggler and Randy Orton. The company is expected to expand that with more performers. Stephanie McMahon recently revealed that the Rock will become a character soon.
March 21, 2014
To promote her addition to the cast of the San Andreas movie, the Rock posted this picture of himself and Carla Gugino, who will be portraying the female lead, on Instagram.
March 16, 2014
Late last year, it was revealed that the Rock had been cast as the lead of a movie called San Andreas, a disaster movie about an earthquake destroying California. It has now been revealed that Carla Gugino will be portraying the lead female character. The two of them worked together in Race to Witch Mountain back in 2009.
March 14, 2014
During a recent interview, Buff Bagwell stated that nothing can save TNA at this point. He also made sure to mention that he was not upset with the company for refusing to hire him. Bagwell questions Dixie Carter and her decision to not bring in bigger names, including himself, to help increase the ratings. Interestingly enough, he stated that even the Rock could not save TNA.

shit yeah.
Am I crazy, or did pitchfork take them off the list? I saw it earlier this morning, and wasn't the go! team also supposed to be at treasure island with them? i am so confused now
Maybe they were asked to take them off the list.
i hear MSTRKRFT is headlining one of the days
Raconteurs and DCFC also rumored
CSS and the Go! Team would be AWESOME. go treasure island.
based on tour schedules, I'd say most of Treasure Island bands come from Monolith, as well:
*based upon tedious fact checking.
I'd take most of those, MINUS Mickey fuckin' Avalon..
Disclosure - October 12 - Reno, NV.
Treasure Island Music Festival - October 19 - San Francisco, CA.
Portugal, The Man - October 22 - Reno, NV.
Cut Copy - October 31 - Reno, NV.

Justice better not headline Treasure Island.
I will take any of the monolith bands at treasure island... though considering those monolith bands span 4 stages, while treasure island has only 2, it can't be nearly all of them.
fingers crossed: tilly & the wall, the ting tings, dan le sac vs scroobius pip, css, JUSTICE!

Here's something you don't see on TV every day: an unbelievably gorgeous woman paired up with a schlubby dude (well, not unless you watch The King of Queens or According to Jim or The Honeymooners or The Flintstones or Still Standing ...). In their latest bound-to-stir-up chatter Super Bowl ad, GoDaddy.com who has spent the past few years trying to remind viewers that only men watch the big game (haha, not even close) have recruited super model Bar Refaeli to lock lips with a nerd named Walter.
While the sexist undertones are still certainly there (Refaeli, the woman, is placed in the ""sexy category,"" while Walter, the male, is placed in the ""smart category""), the real pulp of the ad is an actually an equal opportunity offender. Zooming in on the odd couple, the 27-year-old Sports Illustrated swimsuit cover girl sloppily and loudly makes out with the appointed nerd. The objective, one would assume, is to horrify viewers of every sexual orientation. In the end, Walter feels like more of the butt of the joke than the beacon of false hope. Still, this is GoDaddy.com, so it's a safe bet they weren't trying to see how the shoe felt on the other foot. That won't happen until advertisers start putting hot guys in their Super Bowl commercials for the sole purpose of making the other half of their viewing audience drool over their wings, too.
In the meantime, here's a hot lady in another GoDaddy.com commercial. (Eat your heart out, Leonardo DiCaprio?)
Refaeli, Kate Upton, and what's bound to be a bevy of other beautiful women, will be on display during the commercial breaks during Super Bowl XLVII on CBS on Sunday.
