Devrimci Anarsist Faaliyet's on the Turkish State's Massacre in Sirnak
greece / turkey / cyprus | imperialism / war | news report Saturday December 31, 2011 23:50 by Devrimci Anarsist Faaliyet (DAF) - Revolutionist Anarchist Action (DAF)
Murderer State continues assimilation
There were no cold barrel behind them, it was not an avalanche that would fall from the mountains. They were running away from the fear of imprisonment, from genderme who has just stopped them, that was not snow that would pour down from the sky, it was bombs of F16s. There were no time to reach a ridge for shelter, F16s were much more faster then them and they sheltered behind the first rocks that they saw
Turkish state bombed Kurdish people who were carrying oil and sugar to their village in Bujeh and Roboski in Sirnak-Uludere. 35 people were murdered who were in their 16s and 18s. This is an article decared by Devrimci Anarşist Faaliyet (Revolutionist Anarchist Action), about Turkish Statess massacre in Kurdistan
Now, such desparing and tied,
Behind him a cold barrel
Wouldnt exist
He would have sheltered to the heights,
This mountains, brother mountains would appreciate,
These hands would not ashame the man for sure,
This skilled hands
Blowing off
The ash of the burning cigarette,
The spakling fork in the suns,
The vipers tongue
At the first shot
These eyes were not deceived even for once
His eyes
The apocalipse of the passes
Waiting for avalanche
Snowy, soft betrayal
Of cliffs,
Knowing beforehand..
(Ahmet Arif 33 Kursun)
There were no cold barrel behind them, it was not an avalanche that would fall from the mountains. They were running away from the fear of imprisonment, from genderme who has just stopped them, that was not snow that would pour down from the sky, it was bombs of F16s. There were no time to reach a ridge for shelter, F16s were much more faster then them and they sheltered behind the first rocks that they saw
All these happened by the border of Sirnak. First they stated that a big group of terrorists has been defused, and after it came up that the people who has died, were civillians. What would matter, according to them; there were usually many terrorist groups to pass that area, they were attacking the stations. According to them, a tiny mistake, a detail to pass over: 35 people died burning.
What has ever changed, in the land we live since 33 Bullets, other than much more blood poured on our lands. While the lands were being bloodstained, the state always rose and while the state rose the ruling ones perpetuated themselves. State always prefered to plaster the cracks with blood-mortar and the walls are still rising, in every rise more they become blood-mortared.
The denial of Kurdish people by the state, is exhibited as a solution in the democratic perspective. The operations of destruction of Kurdish people and also the custodies and arrestments of the people, no matter Kurdish or not, who are shouting brotherhood of people to stop this bloody war, under the name of KCK, is the same. The state whose democratic solutions are always denial and any moment that it couldnt solve, who doesnt hesitate to destruct, has done a tiny mistake, TSK( turkish armed force) hit the wrong target, so what. The slaughters that had happened or are happening on this land, are already explained like this.
Who has the courage to say that there are many slaughers which have been going on for years on this land and which have happened in front of eyes and can be counted one by one? Who is to account for holocausts, for villages that were burnt, for people that were got lost and numerous tortures, is there anyone or we can not see? Arrest the academist, arrest the journalist, arrest the politician, arrest the student, arrest the revolutionists, arrest, so what, arrest the ones whose turn to come, who is the next in the list arrest one by one
But you are not able to close neither the peoples will, nor their belief for freedom and nor you can cuff these. The passion for freedom will grow bigger, when you torture or opress this desire will grow up.

The Massacre of Kurds in Sirnak: Turkish State Terror in Action Jan 03 1 comments
This unjustifiable carnage has again exposed the true face of state terrorism in Turkey. This slaughter exposes the hypocrisy of Erdogan, whose regime has its hands soaked in Kurdish blood while he speaks cynically of human rights in other countries. But it also highlights the hypocrisy of an "international community" that is shocked by the repression in Syria, while it assists the silent slaughter of the Kurdish people. The Kurdish people are now mobilized to define their political project of liberation and to resist the four States which occupy them and oppress them (Syria, Turkey, Iran and Iraq). The slightest sense of decency and humanity should impel us to show solidarity with them. [Castellano] [Français] [العربية]

Rookie Blue Review: Find a Partnerby Christine Orlando at . Comments
It was a big night on Rookie Blue, as "For Better, For Worse" reminded us that life's way too long to go through it alone.
With Noelle and Frank's wedding just hours away, the status of every couple's relationship was put under the microscope.
We'll start with Sam and Marlo. The latter was headed off on a long planned vacation without Sam. As she waffled about going, he didn't seem to mind the separation. Although they still appeared solid as a couple, I found it interesting that Sam would be going to this wedding solo.
Gail was at her cynical best as the wedding loomed near. Whether you love Gail or hate her, you have to give her credit for always saying exactly how she feels. Her feelings about Chloe have not changed an iota and she was more than happy to rip into Dov's chipper new girlfriend when she got the chance. You're faker than a big wedding, Chloe. Leave it to Peck not to sugar coat it.
Of course, spending the evening at a wedding without a plus-one can be daunting, so Gail invited new friend Holly. I loved how Holly jumped in as coat check girl and made $20 as she waited on Gail to arrive. Even more intriguing was Gail's reaction to the kiss. It will be interesting to see if Gail heads down this road with Holly or puts on the brakes.
Speaking of Pecks, Steve was full of surprises. If there was any doubt about whether or not he was smitten with Traci, I think taking a personal day to help her do wedding errands wiped them all away. It's Traci's feelings for Steve that are still a little murky. I loved the look on Traci's face during this exchange…
Traci: That's what single girls do, Steve. They give each other keys to their place that way if you die alone...
Steve: They can come over, get you dressed and hide you're porn. Yeah, I get it. | permalink
I'm not sure where this relationship is headed but I definitely want to see more.
Dov turned out to be the ultimate wingman for Oliver. When Shaw said he wasn't going to the wedding because his ex would be there with her new boyfriend, Dov took action. Not only did he force Ollie to ask Celery out on a date, he got him a custom made suit and a very cool ride.
I was proud that Oliver didn't fall right back in with Zoe upon hearing her boyfriend dumped her. The two of them have been miserable for so long that I think it's still time for them both to move on. And that Celery was willing to step aside if he wanted another shot with Zoe made me like her all the more.
Speaking of making a good impression, how darn cute was Chloe as she told Dov she was getting hives from lying about their relationship? I can't wait to see how Uncle Frank deals with this revelation as we move forward.
Finally, there was the wedding. First off, we finally learned that the baby's name is Olivia! It's silly how happy that small detail made me... plus I've always loved that name.
I know the possibility of a cancer diagnosis was scary but I was shocked that Noelle would choose to bail on Frank like that. They seemed so solid and they now share a daughter. That was, until Noelle shared her deepest insecurities with Traci in this Rookie Blue quote…
I already feel like I trapped him by getting pregnant. I'm not going to let him end up with some sick wife to look after too. I'm just not. | permalink
Ugh. I hated hearing that. That deep down, Noelle felt as though her relationship with Frank was based on the fact that she ended up pregnant with his child, while all the while Frank was over the moon in love with her. Kudos to Frank for making it clear that Noelle wasn't about to shake him that easily. Having two failed marriages behind him, he knows this one is the real deal. He's not about to let go.
And then there was Nick and Andy. Nick finally told Andy how he felt about her and props to him for manning up and putting his feelings out there. I respected his honesty and his willingness to take that chance, not to mention his understanding that Andy needed time to process this new information.
Do you think she'll give a romantic relationship with Nick a shot? Perhaps sharing an obsession for '90s love ballads is a sign. And if Nick and Andy become a couple, will that be enough to make Sam realize the love he's thrown away and take some action to get it back?
With five episodes on Rookie Blue Season 4 which couples are you rooting for?
C. Orlando is a TV Fanatic Staff Writer. Follow her on Twitter.Tags: Rookie Blue, Reviews
This episode was so boring. I'm not really invested in Frank and Noelle's relationship. We barely see them on screen. As much as I ship Andy/Sam and have done from the start, I am really rooting for Andy/Nick now because Sam has been so distant from Andy, like he just doesn't care. I think Andy deserves some happiness and someone who tells her how he feels. I'm sure Andy/Sam will be endgame in the future but for now, I'm all for Andy/Nick. They are so cute.
The more I think about it the less I want to see Andy and Nick together. Nick is super cute and the playfulness between Nick and Andy is perfect and so refreshing to watch but Andy with another cope from the 15th oh boy!! She would kinda be like the harlett of the show detective hopping! I wish Sam could grow a bit and risk his feelings for her one more time, come on Sam one more grand gester, we all know Andy lis secretly waiting for it! If they drag the Sam and Andy not back together out another season I think I might die, you know they were reined for season 5.
I am definitely loving Traci and Steve they are fun together and she really needs someone to give her some life back.
Luke should come back for Gail they do not need to have her turn lesbian (even though I am really enjoying the character Holly) because before it wasn't right for them to be together, he was still getting over Andy and she just broke up with Chris..... so now is their chance.
I like Andy and Nick they have some fun parts but they are totally just brother and sister which I'm hoping will be realised once they give dating a try.
As for Sam and Marlo that relationship is going down the drain. It is just painful to watch the lack of anything between them sad see. I almost feel like Marlo will in the end just tell him to go back to Andy because everyone knows that is where it will always be and they can't fight it for long.
Another fantastic episode!
I loved the elderly lady telling Gail she was far to young to be cynical!
I am glad that Noelle went to talk to Frank, that was a very sweet scene and there wedding was beautiful.
I like Oliver and Celery now, I was skeptical last week but I like them, Oliver is so much happier with her already.
I also like Holly now too.
I like Traci and Steve. I still find it odd that Steve and Gail have not shared one scene and they were both at the wedding.
I still do not see the Sam and Marlo relationship, not sure if it the fact that Priscilla and Ben do not have a lot of chemistry or the way their characters romance is written but they are not a good match.
Once again there was hope for Sam and Andy. He keeps giving her these looks and I keep waiting for him to go up to her and give her a super romantic kiss.
I think the whole Andy and Nick thing will be a drawn out will they or wont they and then in the end they wont.
How cute was Sam stepping in as best man?!?
Marlo could ask for the definitive transfer to Miami. Enjoy the sun. Make your treatment and disappear McSwarek life.
Great Oliver! I liked Dov, Steve and Traci. Frank and Noelle. I do not want Nick to Andy. Not that Andy should not move but by the "girls code" Andy with Gail. They could have found another love interest for Andy and Sam is with M. Sam dying to be with Andy but his immaturity prevents him from recognizing.
This was the most unromantic wedding I've seen on television. We all knew there was going to be a wedding, and were hoping it would be an opportunity for Sam and Andy to share a dance and reconnect. Enough, put them back together. There are so many storylines for them to be together, like undercover assignment sneak arounds, getting to know each other better, deciding to move in together, etc. People turn into this show because of Sam and Andy and the wonderful acting of Ben Bass. How can you justify keeping them apart. That is not real life, it's a soap opera. Oh, and I miss Chris. He and Gail were good together. His character was so sweet and refreshing against Gail's harshness.
I must say that I totally enjoyed the eye candy of Frank with his shirt undone. Noelle and Frank scene were great, he re assured her that he was totally in. Oliver an Dov are so good together, Oliver having his own happiness
Andy and Nick blah blah
I liked the episode. I found it very lacking in continuity between the case bottom and wedding preparations. I expected better from Tassie.
Also, i love Oliver with Celery and Frank and Noelle were so cute. I hope they bring her back soon, I miss her. @Freiliau, I agree it's like she's his guy friend. And you've got an interesting point, maybe she was going to rehab for her bipolar disorder? When she said she was managing it, it seems she was trying to convince herself.

Haldol (Haloperidol)
What Is Haldol (Haloperidol)?By Don Wall
Medically Reviewed by Sherry Brooks, MD
Haldol is the brand name for haloperidol, an anti-psychotic medicine used to treat mental and mood disorders, including schizophrenia and acute psychosis.
It is often used in emergency room psychiatric situations. It helps reduce aggression, negative thoughts, and the desire to harm someone or oneself.
It can also help to reduce hallucinations, as well as to treat uncontrolled outbursts related to Tourette's disorder, and it can be used for short periods of time for people who have acute agitation.
In children, Haldol may be used for severe behavior problems including hyperactivity or aggression.
Haloperidol was developed by a Belgian company in 1958, and approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1967. McNeil Laboratories marketed the drug under the brand name Haldol. The tablet forms are now available only generically.
Haldol Warnings
Haldol may make you dizzy, so do not drive or operate machinery until you know how it affects you. Do not drink alcohol and use Haldol.
Haldol should not be used to treat dementia in elderly patients. For people with diabetes, Haldol may affect blood sugar levels.
Consult with your physician about your medical history, including nervous system problems such as Parkinson's disease.
Discuss bipolar disorder, angina, depression, overactive thyroid, prostate problems, and glaucoma, as well as seizures.
Tell your physician if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Haldol is secreted into breast milk, so discuss the potential risks against the potential benefits with your health care provider.

I am taking Haldol to put me to sleep. Unfortunately, it is very strong and lasts much longer than eight hours. With a 10-milligram dose, I sleep up to 10 hours. What dosage would last for eight hours?A: One dosage will not last for a certain time. Each dose will act differently for each person, so it is difficult to say if there is a dose that will keep you sleeping for only eight hours. Haloperidol (Haldol) also comes in a 5-milligram tablet. Maybe this would work better for you. Try speaking with your doctor about your situation. He or she might want to try a lower dose or switch your medication altogether. Back to Top
What can you say about Haldol?A: Haldol (haloperidol) is an antipsychotic medication that affects chemicals in the brain. Haldol is used in the treatment of schizophrenia and to control motor and speech tics (involuntary movements) of Tourette's Disorder. According to the package insert, Haldol can cause some serious side effects, including cardiovascular problems like low or high blood pressure, increased heart rate, and abnormal heart rhythms. Haldol can also cause movement disorders similar to Parkinson's Disease, which are called extrapyramidal symptoms. Prolonged contractions of muscle groups have also been reported with Haldol treatment. Other generalized central nervous system effects include insomnia, restlessness, anxiety, euphoria, agitation, drowsiness, depression, lethargy, headache, confusion, vertigo, seizures, and an increase in psychotic symptoms. This is not a complete list of the side effects associated with Haldol. Michelle McDermott, PharmD Back to Top
Can Haldol cause tumors that can cause breast cancer?A: Haldol (haloperidol) is an antipsychotic medication that is used to treat psychosis, Tourette's Syndrome, and agitation. Recent studies have suggested a link between haloperidol and breast cancer. However, more research is necessary in order to confirm these studies. Based on the data collected thus far, it is not possible to determine if the drug causes tumor development or promotes the growth of the tumor once the tumor has already started. Until further research is completed, we are unable to determine whether Haldol causes breast cancer. It is recommended that you speak with your doctor regarding your concerns about this medication so that they can help you weigh the risks and benefits of using this medication. Megan Uehara, PharmD Back to Top
Can taking Haldol be a possible link to getting breast cancer?A: Haldol (haloperidol) is classified in a group of medications called conventional, or typical, antipsychotics. Haldol is used for the management of the signs and symptoms of psychotic disorders. Haldol is also used to control tics (involuntary, rapid, sudden movements) and vocal expressions associated with Tourette syndrome. Haldol is also used to treat severe behavior problems in children with combative, explosive hyperexcitability. Haldol is also used for the short term-treatment of hyperactive children who are constantly moving with other symptoms, including impulsivity, difficulty maintaining attention, aggressiveness, unstable mood, or poor frustration tolerance. For children with behavioral problems and hyperactivity, Haldol should not be used unless other therapies, such as psychotherapy and non-antipsychotic medications, have failed. The mechanism by which Haldol works is unknown. Haldol appears to lessen abnormal brain activity. Antipsychotic medications increase prolactin levels in the body, with elevation continuing during regular use of the medications. Prolactin is a natural hormone released by the pituitary gland that stimulates breast development and milk production in women. Experiments have found that about one-third of human breast cancers are associated with prolactin levels. The prescribing information for Haldol states that this is a factor of potential importance if the use of antipsychotic medications is contemplated in a person with previously detected breast cancer. However, according to the Haldol prescribing information, the significance of elevated serum prolactin levels is unknown for most people. An increase in cases of breast cancer has been found in rodents after constant administration of antipsychotic medications. Studies conducted to date, however, have not shown an association between constant administration of these medications and the formation of breast tumors, according to the prescribing information for Haldol. The available evidence is considered too limited to be conclusive at this time. For more specific information, consult with your doctor or for guidance based on your health status and current medications, particularly before taking any action. Derek Dore, PharmD Back to Top

Food & Basic Needs
It is estimated that in San Diego alone, over 280,000 children don't get enough to eat.
Lack of adequate food is often what brings people to Interfaith's doors, so feeding the hungry has always been one of our core services. Interfaith began when a handful of people started mobile food pantries out of the trunks of their cars.
Last year, we served more than 174,000 hot meals at our nutrition center in Escondido, and distributed more than 317,000 meals worth of groceries at our two food pantries in Escondido and Oceanside.
Food Services
Food Assistance
Interfaith provides emergency food assistance at both our Betty & Melvin Cohn Center in Escondido and at our Coastal Service Center in Oceanside. Individuals and families working with Interfaith's client advocate staff in our Family & Social Services programs and our Shelter and Housing programs benefit from more frequent support from the food pantry.
Each morning at our Inland Service Center in Escondido, from 6:30am – 7:30 a.m., volunteers from local faith communities, schools, and service clubs gather to serve a free hot breakfast to the homeless and low income in our area. We typically serve between 100 and 150 hungry people each morning.
For many of our morning clients, this breakfast might be the only hot meal they eat all day, so we typically serve a meal that looks more like a dinner, such as spaghetti with meatballs, a green salad, green beans, garlic bread, a pastry, coffee, milk, and juice. In addition, each person is given a sack lunch "to go" for work or school.
Basic Needs
Shower & Laundry Facilities
Each weekday morning at our Inland Service Center in Escondido, beginning at 6:15 a.m., individuals have access to showers and laundry facilities.
Mail, Phone, Message, Fax & Copy Services
Clients are able to utilize Interfaith's Inland Service Center as a permanent address for receiving mail and phone messages. In addition, they are able to use our fax and copy machines, as well as the phone for making business related calls within the area codes 760, 858, and 619.
If you or someone you know is in need of food and basic needs assistance, contact us today.

Necrotizing vasculitis is a rare condition that involves inflammation of the blood vessel walls.
Vasculitis - necrotizing
Necrotizing vasculitis is common with:
It is very rare in children.
The cause of the inflammation is unknown. It is likely related to autoimmune factors. The wall of the blood vessel may scar and thicken, or die (become necrotic). The blood vessel may close, interrupting blood flow to the tissues it supplies. The lack of blood flow will cause the tissues to die.
Necrotizing vasculitis may affect any blood vessel in the body. Therefore, it can cause problems with the skin or any of the body's organs.
Fever, chills, fatigue, arthritis, or weight loss may be the only symptoms at first. However, symptoms may be in almost any part of the body.
Muscles and joints:
Brain and nervous system:
Lungs and respiratory tract:
Other symptoms include:
The doctor will perform a physical exam. A nervous system (neurological) examination may show signs of nerve damage.
Tests that may be done include:
Corticosteroids are given in most cases. The dose will depend on how bad the condition is.
Other drugs that suppress the immune system may reduce inflammation of the blood vessels.
For severe disease, cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan) is usually given. A new medicine, rituximab, (Rituxan) may be used instead of Cytoxan.
Related conditions include:
The outcome depends on the location of the vasculitis and the severity of tissue damage.
Call your health care provider if you have symptoms of necrotizing vasculitis.
Emergency symptoms include:
There is no known way to prevent this disorder.

Just wanted to update you and everyone at Pet Smart about our lovely Oliver! He has fit in well with my little family of my fiance Chris, our two cats Stewie and Sasha, and of course the hamster, Captain Mcnugget. Oliver is probably lucky we didn't get to name him!
I had checked in on Oliver for 3 months at the pet store before finally realizing that we had enough love for one more kitty and we are extremely happy we made that decision! Oliver starts purring if you look at him and he's yours forever if you give him a scratch! One of his favourite things to do is wrap is body around my head as a I sleep. My neck may be a little sore when I wake up but how can you say no to a cute purring happy kitty!
He's a great little guy!
Thanks so much

Printable View
I read in the latest pc pro about HP bring out some universal HP orinter driver!
just a quick question about HP printer drivers
which ones do you tend to use as they do a post script, pcl5 and pcl6
PCL5e here.
That's a good point but why do you use pcl5e as apposed to anything else ?
We've found 5e the most stable, and with PCL6 it will only print 1 copy of the document no matter how many you specify.
I found that with PCL6, i do use post script on our colour ones because of some error with printing seperate colout layers in Publisher 2003 requiring it. But PCL5e mainly. Or my built in MacBook drivers hehe, but no luck connecting my mac to a hp 1010 tho lol
Generic postscript drivers. Linux print server converts the generic postscript to whatever the printer uses (although PCL gives it a bit of a headache sometimes).
Have to agree about the PCL5e. By far the most stable. PCL6 seems to be causing lots of issues in FMS at the moment too for some reason.
i have always tended to stick with pcl5 except on our colour printers were i use postscript
65 printers and counting phew!
I tend to use whichever driver works!! I've found different printers work better with different drivers. Most of ours are PCL5e, but some use PCL6. I tend not to use postscript drivers, I've found them un-reliable in the past.
I've recently had a major problem with the latest version of the HP driver for their 3600 printers. After installing it on our print server, whenever a workstation connected to it they couldn't see the properties page for the printer, and also when they printed, the printer would randomly leave items off the page e.g the grid lines in excel. Rolling back to the old driver sorted it out, but I had to go round each workstation that was affected and manually delete the updated copy of printer driver that had been downloaded from the server, a time consuming task I can assure you.
I was recommended by a HP techie to use a PCL 5 driver as the PCL6 ons cause many issues.
I seem to remember and issue with PCL6 drivers and Office. Which is mad as if you create a printer driver the one thing you want to really test it on is Office
Thats a good question, I remember the first time i installed a printer i tossed a 50p coin, to decide which one to use.
PCL5 every time :D

Miami ranked No. 44, Hurricanes chase Coastal Division title
The Orlando Sentinel's college insider Matt Murschel has ranked all 128 Football Bowl Subdivision teams in the country entering the 2014 season. The Sentinel staff will take a closer look at a new team daily, counting backward from No. 128 to our projected No. 1 team.
Today at No. 44: Miami Hurricanes
Coach: Al Golden (22-15, entering fourth season; 49-49 overall)
2013 record: 9-4 (5-3 in ACC, tied for second in ACC Coastal Division)
Look back: The Hurricanes' biggest victory came off the field when it finally closed out the protracted NCAA investigation into former booster Nevin Shapiro's impermissible contact with UM athletes. The NCAA determined the school had already self-imposed enough penalties, clearing Miami to participate in postseason play.
Miami took steps forward, including a decisive victory over rival Florida and a 7-0 start. The team later took a few big steps back, with its defense struggling during the heart of ACC play. It didn't help that veteran starting quarterback Stephen Morris suffered a severe ankle injury early in the season that altered his throwing motion and limited his success for much of the year. Later in the year, star tailback Duke Johnson broke his ankle against rival Florida State. Miami lost three of its final five games without Johnson out of the lineup.
The team did enough to earn a bid to the Russell Athletic Bowl in Orlando, but the Hurricanes had no answers for Louisville star quarterback Teddy Bridgewater and suffered a 36-9 loss.
Miami coach Al Golden vowed to improve the defense, but he declined to shake up his coaching staff. At one point, it appeared he was going to leave South Florida and take the Penn State head coaching job, but Vanderbilt's James Franklin ultimately accepted the job.
Offensive starters returning: 6
Offensive starters lost: 5
Defensive starters returning: 6
Defensive starters lost: 5
Key losses: QB Stephen Morris, OL Brandon Linder, OL Seantrel Henderson, WR Allen Hurns, P Pat O'Donnell
Top returnees: RB Duke Johnson, WR/PR/KR Stacy Coley, LB Denzel Perryman, DE Anthony Chickillo, OL Ereck Flowers, WR Phillip Dorsett
Strengths: Johnson has vowed to return and help his teammates get a dose of revenge when they face off with Louisville, a team that thrashed the Hurricanes in the Russell Athletic Bowl. He has worked to add muscle to his frame to help him better handle hits and is eager to make the case he should be an NFL Draft pick to benefit his family. His ultra-competitive spirit should give Miami a big boost.
Playmakers Stacy Coley, Phillip Dorsett and Artie Burns should all give the Hurricanes' offense a boost.
Golden said he has seen key improvement from the defense. It will be up to veteran linebacker Denzel Perryman to set the tone for the unit.
Weaknesses: Reserve quarterback Ryan Williams, who gained significant experience behind Morris, was expected to easily step into the starting role but he suffered a major knee injury late in spring football. He is battling to return quickly from the injury, but now Miami is counting on Kansas transfer Jake Heaps to adapt quickly to the Hurricanes' system and run the offense.
Miami also has to offset the loss of talented offensive linemen Brandon Linder and Seantrel Henderson.
Outlook: Golden has proven to be a strong recruiter who pushed young players into the spotlight early in his tenure. He should reap the rewards of those investments and the Hurricanes should contend for a Coastal Division title, but UM needs the defense to take a big developmental step forward and Heaps to step up as a solid game manger.

One injured in church roof collapse
A construction worker is lucky to walk away with minor injuries after escaping a trusses collapse at a church that is under construction.
Emergency personnel was called to 1001 Skeet Club Road at between 4:30 and 4:45 p.m. in reference to a roof collapse.
An investigation by the fire inspector found that a six-person crew was placing trusses on the roof of the church, Sikh Association of the Triad, with a crane when the trusses began to fall.
One man was inside the frame of the church and was able to run and roll out of the structure before the beams completely collapsed.
The man received a cut on the chin, abrasions and contusions, but refused medical treatment offered at the scene, according to Deputy Chief Tim Wright.
"He was very fortunate, because about 15 to 20 trusses fell," Wright said.
The construction company listed at the site was DTC Construction out of Greensboro.
A stop work order has been placed on the construction until it is cleared by a building inspector.

Apple Macbook Pro Retina
- 1 Macbook Retina Models
- 2 Installation Steps
- 3 Bootloader
- 4 LiveUSB Bootstrap
- 5 Kernel Configuration
- 6 Wireless Drivers
- 7 Media keys
- 8 Application configuration
- 9 Turn off backlight when screen closed
- 10 What's Not Yet Working
- 11 Resources
Macbook Retina Models
The 13 and 15 inch models are slightly different. The 15 inch model is more complicated, as it has both an Intel and an nVidia graphics card. The setup steps common to both are here, and specifics are separated off below:
In theory, the steps here should be very similar to the 11,x model.
Installation Steps
These instructions will perform a Dual Boot setup with MacOS. A single boot installation could be performed, but you will need to use the rEFIt instructions for installing rEFIt to the EFI system partition using bless instead of to the MAC partition (which is the default). I have not tried this yet but you can read about it on the rEFIt website.
We will be bootstrapping using Ubuntu. Grab a mac image and flash it to a USB drive. SD cards don't seem to work.
To connect to Ethernet, you'll need a Thunderbolt or USB adapter. Thunderbolt adapters will have to be plugged in at boot (hotplugging doesn't seem to work).
Use MacOS Disk Utility to resize the MacOS partition on the fly, which by default takes up most of the disk, and behind it create your Linux root partition of the size you desire. Note: if you have full disk encryption, you will need to temporarily disable it (takes a while) to make any changes to the partition table.
Now, choose a bootloader so that you can boot the liveUSB and the kernel we'll be making later.
Now you must choose your a EFI boot manager. Currently Apple's Bootcamp doesn't support linux. However there are two option for you: rEFIt and rEFInd.
Using Refit
Refit it is very easy to install however be aware that it is dead. There is longer any active development for it. I can confirm that is works well with OSX Mountain Lion however it's untested on OSX Mavericks which it hasnt been tested on. If you want to install it go here.
A major drawback of this method is that you cannot use an initramfs, so if you have lvm or encryption then you must use rEFInd.
You cannot pass kernel arguments using rEFIt, so it is useless on 15 in macbooks where kernel arguments are required (unless you hardcode all arguments, which is very cumbersome).
In this method, the Mac app rEFIt will act as the boot manager/boot loader and it will boot the kernel directly.
Use at least a 3.7 Kernel. The wireless drivers you need later do not compile with a kernel greater than 3.8 at the present time.
Complete the rest of the gentoo installation, and reboot. rEFIt should show Gentoo_37_x64.efi as an option in the boot menu.
Using Refind
Refind which is a fork of Refit and is being actively development and maintained. For installation see follow this link.
This option is recommended for 15 inch versions, as it allows for passing kernel parameters.
Setting up rEFInd must be done from OSX. Essentially it boils down to:
Getting rEFInd
- Go to http://sourceforge.net/projects/refind/files/
- Get the latest binary zip
- Extract it
Installing rEFInd
Configuring rEFInd
Later, once you've built a kernel, you'll need to edit /Volumes/efi/refind/refind.conf (from within Linux) to add your kernel, as you would with GRUB
menuentry Linux-Bleeding-Modeset-Switch { icon EFI/refind/icons/os_gentoo.icns loader EFI/gentoo/kernel-3.14-m initrd EFI/gentoo/initrd-3.14-m options "ro root=UUID=a3b54691-7d5b-3b20-8b80-08cbfa521fbf noapic" # Basic kernel options, specifying root partition by uuid. # options "ro crypt_root=/dev/vg1/root dolvm real_root=/dev/mapper/root rootfstype=ext4 noapic" # kernel options for lvm + luks encryption }
You can (and probably should) have several entries, and can edit this file from within linux.
Just compile your kernels normally and install them to EFI/gentoo on the efi partition.
LiveUSB Bootstrap
Now that the bootloader has been installed and the disk is prepared, we are ready to start bootstrapping.
Shut down the Mac, and boot it up twice (Requirement for rEFIt). You should start seeing the rEFIt or rEFInd boot menu after the second reboot.
Now, plug the Ubuntu USB stick into the Mac and boot the Mac. Select the new option in the menu which should be the USB stick. If there are multiple options, keep trying until you get one that boots. At the Ubuntu boot screen, press F6 to disable apic, or you may experience random crashes.
When it boots, most everything should work except the sound on the liveCD.
Proceed with a standard Gentoo install using the Ubuntu live environment. Install your snapshot into the root partition you created (Probably /dev/sdb4) and configure it per the installation instructions but do not install the boot loader. Note that by default the EFI system partition will be /dev/sdb1, Apple root will be /dev/sdb2 and Apple recovery will be /dev/sdb3.
Kernel Configuration
If you are going to use rEFIt, make sure you
I've included my 3.14 kernel config as a reference, which supports:
- Open source intel and nvidia drivers
- Apple magic mouse
- LUKS encryption
- Bluetooth
- Everything below
These options are in addition to the standard options you would select for Intel based PC's
Configure your kernel as normal, but add the following options for EFI Stub (needed for rEFIt or rEFInd), More details about Kernel configuration for EFI stub are here: EFI stub kernel:
Processor type and features ---> [*] EFI runtime service support [*] EFI stub support Device Drivers ---> Input device support ---> [*] Mice ---> # For trackpad support <*> Apple USB BCM5974 Multitouch trackpad support Hardware Monitoring support ---> # Motion, light sensor, keyboard backlight <*> Apple SMC (Motion sensor, light sensor, keyboard backlight) Graphics support ---> <*> Intel 8xx/9xx/G3x/G4x/HD Graphics Backlight & LCD device support ---> # Screen backlight <*> Apple Backlight Driver X86 Platform Specific Device Drivers ---> <*> Apple Gmux Driver Multimedia support ---> Media USB Adapters ---> # Webcam <M> USB Video Class (UVC) Sound card support ---> Advanced Linux Sound Architecture ---> PCI sound devices ---> <M> Intel HD Audio ---> [*] Build HDMI/DisplayPort HD-audio codec support [*] Build Cirrus Logic codec support
Ensure the following options are NOT set (required for proper Broadcom wireless):
Networking support ---> Wireless ---> < > Generic IEEE 802.11 Networking Stack (mac80211) Device Drivers ---> Network device support ---> Wireless LAN ---> < > Broadcom 43xx wireless support (mac80211 stack) < > Broadcom IEEE802.11n embedded FullMAC WLAN driver Sonics Silicon Backplane ---> < > Sonics Silicon Backplane support
If and only if you are using rEFIt, specify the root hardcoded in the kernel:
Processor type and features ---> [*] Built-in kernel command line (root=/dev/sda4) Built-in kernel command string
Make sure the root= line on your kernel command line configuration is correct.
Once configured, compile the kernel as normal but do not copy it to /boot. Once it is compiled, do the following:
Required for Audio: Add the following to the bottom of /etc/modprobe.d/alsa:
options snd_hda_intel model=mbp101
Installing the kernel
Your built in Macbook SSD should be /dev/sdb if you booted from the Ubuntu USB which will probably be /dev/sda. Assuming it is /dev/sdb, your "EFI System Partition" will be /dev/sdb1, in which case, copy it to the EFI partition as such:
If you used rEFInd and need an initramfs, copy it over too, and update refind.conf to have a matching menu entry.
It's a good idea with rEFInd to keep a few working kernels around, in case you bork one - this way you can get back in to rescue the system.
Wireless Drivers
There are two driver options for wifi.
- The BCM 4331 is supported by opensource in kernel driver B43. Note: Only B/G modes are supported by the in-kernel driver. 802.11n is not supported. To install disgrade the up listed kernel option for wireless and follow the Wifi guide.
- You can use Broadcom closed source driver. In which case please disable kernel as detailed above. This driver supports 802.11n. NB broadcom driver must be verison 126.96.36.199 or higher
The broadcom-sta driver will have to be recompiled each time you upgrade your kernel.
Media keys
We will control the media keys using xbindkeys. Create an .xbindkeysrc in your home directory with the options mentioned. You can also use xbindkey -k to generate new mappings. To install, add "xbindkeys" to your .xinitrc. You can access function keys by holding the Fn modifier in the bottom left of the keyboard.
We'll also need to create a local.d script:
#!/bin/bash # http://askubuntu.com/questions/370857/cant-adjust-screen-brightness-on-macbook-pro-10-1-ubuntu-13-10 /usr/bin/setpci -v -H1 -s 00:01.00 BRIDGE_CONTROL=0 /bin/chmod a+w /sys/devices/platform/applesmc.768/leds/smc\:\:kbd_backlight/brightness /bin/chmod a+w /sys/class/backlight/gmux_backlight/brightness
Keyboard backlight
Install xbindkeys and add the following to your .xbindkeysrc:
"/usr/bin/kb-brightness down" m:0x0 + c:237 "/usr/bin/kb-brightness up" m:0x0 + c:238
#!/bin/bash kbdb='/sys/devices/platform/applesmc.768/leds/smc::kbd_backlight/brightness' step=25 current=`cat $kbdb` new=$current if [ "$1" == "up" ];then new=$(($current + $step)) elif [ "$1" == "down" ];then new=$(($current - $step)) fi if [ $new -le 0 ];then new=0 fi echo $new > $kbdb
Display backlight
Add the following tho .xbindkeysrc:
"/usr/bin/bl-brightness down" m:0x0 + c:232 "/usr/bin/bl-brightness up" m:0x0 + c:233
#!/bin/bash bldb='/sys/class/backlight/gmux_backlight/brightness' step=25 current=`cat $bldb` new=$current if [ "$1" == "up" ];then new=$(($current + $step)) elif [ "$1" == "down" ];then new=$(($current - $step)) fi if [ $new -le 0 ];then new=0 fi echo $new > $bldb current=`cat $bldb`
Audio control keys
This assumes you are using ALSA, and have your card properly configured:
Add the following to your .xbindkeysrc:
# Increase volume "amixer set Master playback 1+ unmute" XF86AudioRaiseVolume # Decrease volume "amixer set Master playback 1-" XF86AudioLowerVolume "amixer set Master toggle" XF86AudioMute
Application configuration
Keeping retina resolution
If you plan to use the retina display at native resolution on the 13" or 15" MBP, you probably want to make it a little more readable. To do this, most toolkits have DPI configuration. In KDE, you can find it in systemsettings > Application appearance > Font > DPI, set it at 160 for 1.5x resolution and 220 for 1.0x resolution (letting it at 96 will be equal to 2.0x resolution). For terminals such as xterm and urxvt, edit ~/.Xdefaults to add:
Xft.dpi: 160 Xft.antialias: 1 Xft.hinting: 1 Xft.hintstyle: hintfull Xft.rgba: rgb urxvt*font: xft:DejaVu Sans:pixelsize=16
For GTK+, font size can be set in ~/.gtkrc-2.0. It can also share KDE settings when using oxygen-gtk.
Downscaling resolution
This will just globally cut the resolution in half, and provides a much more "normal" experience, while sacrificing the additional resolution. IMHO, this is totally worth it and actually works way better.
Add the following to your .xinitrc:
monitor=`xrandr | grep -i edp | cut -d " " -f 1` xrandr --newmode "1440x900_60.00" 106.50 1440 1528 1672 1904 900 903 909 934 -hsync +vsync xrandr --addmode $monitor 1440x900_60.00 xrandr --output $monitor --mode 1440x900_60.00
Turn off backlight when screen closed
The hardware does not automatically shut off the backlight like other laptops. Make the following change. Edit /etc/acpi/default.sh and find the commented #lid) section, the lid) case should look like this:
lid) xset -display :0 dpms force off ;;
In addition, edit /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/00-xhost and add the following line to the bottom of the file. This gives root permission to run xset.
xhost +local:0 > /dev/null 2>&1
Restart ACPID and the X server for this to take effect.
What's Not Yet Working
Everything I can think to test works, except the following:
- Thunderbolt does not work with hotplug. Boot with the adapter connected.
- The SD card reader is giving me some troubles. It works fine with some cards but I am having errors with other cards. But it does seem to work sometimes. I get the following:
[16032.337737] mmc0: Switching to 1.8V signalling voltage failed, retrying with S18R set to 0 [16049.257421] mmc0: error -110 whilst initialising SD card
The Arch Linux wiki is a very good reference. If you're interested in setting up an encripted rootfs on lvm Funtoo has a great article.
