Red Hat, Inc. (NYSE: RHT), the world's leading provider of open source solutions, today announced the next minor release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.9. This release marks the beginning of Production Phase 2 of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and demonstrates the company's continuing effort to promote stability and the preservation of customers' investments in the platform. It maintains Red Hat's commitment to a 10-year lifecycle through the introduction of several new features, including hardware enablement, security, standards and certifications, developer tools, virtualization, and more.
As with all minor releases, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.9 maintains backwards compatibility with hardware and software platforms across the lifecycle of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. Therefore, the hardware and software compatibility included within previous releases of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 continues with this minor release. Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.9 also showcases numerous improvements, including:
- Support for Industry-Leading Hardware Vendors Through Enhanced Hardware Enablement. Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.9 showcases the strong relationships Red Hat has with leading hardware vendors by including support for some of the latest CPU, chipset and device driver enhancements.
- Continued Commitment to Security, Standards and Certifications. Red Hat Enterprise Linux has always been built with security in mind – a commitment that Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.9 helps solidify. This update features tighter security controls, the ability to verify and check the robustness of new passwords and support for the latest government password policy requirements. It also adds support for using Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) mode with dmraid root devices. FIPS mode now supports RAID device discovery, RAID set activation, and the creation, removal, rebuilding and displaying of properties.
- New Developer Tools. Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.9 includes several new developer-friendly features and tools, including the ability to develop and test with the latest version of open source Java available through OpenJDK 7. Many new SystemTap improvements have been added to Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.9, including compile-server and client support for IPv6 networks, smaller SystemTap files, faster compiles, and compile server support for multiple concurrent connections.
- Enhanced Application Support. Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.9 includes a new rsyslog5 package, which upgrades rsyslog to major version 5 and is faster and more reliable than existing rsyslog packages available in previous RHEL releases. Samba has also been updated to version 3.6 with several new features, including SMB2 support, a reworked print server and security default improvements for all versions.
- New Virtualization Capabilities and Flexibility in Multi-vendor Environments. Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.9 enhances the operating system's usability in multi-vendor environments by introducing Microsoft Hyper-V drivers for improved performance. This enhances the usability of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 for guests in heterogenous, multi-vendor virtualized environments and provides improved flexibility and interoperability for enterprises.
- Better Subscription Management. Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.9 uses Red Hat Subscription Management as the default, allowing customers to effectively and more easily manage their Red Hat Enterprise Linux subscriptions locally or with tools such as Subscription Asset Manager which was enhanced to easily run reports on subscription distribution and utilization and an improved user interface. For more detail on how Red Hat customers can manage their subscriptions, please visit the Subscription Management section of the Red Hat Customer Portal.

Barrow dental worker suspended after 'a big mistake'
Last updated at 11:18, Monday, 24 March 2014
A "BIG mistake" led to a Barrow dental technician being suspended after 50 years in the job.
Christiaan Schoombee was suspended for six months at a hearing of the General Dental Council's Professional Conduct Committee in London on March 6.
Mr Schoombee, who worked at Z&J Dental Lab in Cheltenham Street, Barrow, had been charged with acting outside his scope of practice as a dental technician.
The PCC claimed at some point in 2010/11 he took impressions of a patient's mouth, provided and fitted dentures without a prescription from a dentist and performed post-fit adjustments. He was also charged with failing to keep full and proper laboratory records.
Mr Schoombee, 69, admitted the charges and told the Evening Mail he was "finished" with dentistry.
He said: "There's nothing more I can say, it is over. I have retired and I'm going."
Mr Schoombee, originally from Pretoria in South Africa, said he was planning to go back to his home country and see his sons in Cape Town.
He said: "I made a mistake; a big mistake which I regretted.
"I have been in this game for 50 years and it is sad for it to end like this, but you never know which way it's going to go."
The PCC said the charges had come to their attention after a letter from Paul Crooks, a clinical dental technician, in January 2013.
The PCC said at the hearing: "The committee considers your decision to go beyond your scope of practice, which you have admitted was deliberate, represents a serious departure from the standards expected of a DT.
"Ignoring the scope of practice is not in the best interests of the public, it places patients at risk and may involve the delivery of treatment which is outside your level of competence."
The PCC said it accepted the charges related to a single case and Mr Schoombee had admitted his offences from the outset.
However, it said: "Nevertheless going outside your scope of practice in the way that you did is clearly serious and unacceptable, and the committee determined that it constituted misconduct."

@Landkreuzer P. 1000 Ratte
The Civil war could have started at many times. You could say in 1927 with the massacre in Shanghai. You could start with the 6 Extermination campaigns against the Jiangxi and Yan'an Soviets. You could talk about the New Fourth Army incident in 1941. Or how any sovereign government is supposed to react to an independent armed party expressly dedicated to it's overthrow. There are no parts that were "supposed to belong to the communists" because neither side was willing to legally say that their authority was anything less than the entire country.
The communists thought that Chiang Kai Shek negotiated in bad faith to buy time to position his forces to crush the communists. Chiang Kai Shek thought the communists were negotiating in bad faith to buy time until they were strong enough to overthrow the ROC.
And both sides were proved entirely correct in their assessment of the other side's intentions. The communists did use the the United Front against Japan to build up their forces from 92,000 in 1937 to 910,000 in 1945. (mainly by not fighting Japan, the 100 Regiments offensive in 1940 was the only time and the communists never did it again because fighting the Japanese was explicitly secondary to preparing for the upcoming civil war. Fighting the Japanese without permission was one of the things that got Peng Dehuai purged.)
Chiang Kai Shek did use the negotiations to buy time to move his troops into Manchuria.
Both sides are super super guilty for the Civil war. So you have to look at what happened after the communists won. The bar that the nationalists set until 1987, a corrupt authoritarian state under martial law, was low. But the CCP managed to do even worse. For all that Chinese people nowadays talk about 5000 years of history, Mao destroyed more cultural relics and killed more Chinese people than any foreign army ever did.
Any Chinese person born in the last 60 years, would have been healthier, happier, freer, safer, and richer if they were born on Taiwan. 中華民囯加油!
軍政、訓政、憲政 (Military revolution, tutelage by the party, multi party constitutional government)
The communists, after 60 years, still can't get number 3.
That's the real embarrassment of Taiwan. Every day that it exists makes the lie of the CCP(Chinese people can't handle democracy) all the more apparent.
The commemoration of 1911 revolution, on both sides of strait, does serve one purpose: re-affirm the one-China-two-governance interpretation of cross strait relation. The 'one China' encompasses the civilization aspect (i.e. history, culture, demographic, territory, language..etc) of 'Chinese-ness'. The 'two governance' means exactly that: one in Taipei, the other in Beijing. A family of two squabbling siblings, not two unrelated entities.
I totally disagree with CCH08's comment. He needs to study Chinese history before actually comment. The civil war between communist and nationalist of China start in 1945 and end in 1949. The cause of the war is because nationalist attacked locations that suppose to belong to the communist after the negoitation between two side. On the other side, nationalist is not a good government either, the four powerful family controlled the countries most wealth. Although the communist party today doesn't seems so good in terms of corruption and limit of freedom, the orignial founders of communist party were smart and revolutionary people. Every great leaders have it's downside but you can not define somebody by its down side.
The same questions as to whether the 1911 Chinese revolution was justified can probably also apply to the 1949 revolution. After all, the Beijing regime gained power in 1949 by launching against the Republic of China a bloody armed rebellion that caused huge physical damages and millions of deaths, only to create a harsh dictatorship that was disasterous in dealing with the economy in its first three decades of existence and is now oppressive and corrupt. Before the 1949 takeover, indeed, the Nationalists running the Republic also initiated sweeping political reforms, including the adoptation in 1947 of a liberal consititution, which still serves as the foundation of a multi-party liberal democracy in Taiwan that is also economically far ahead of the mainland China. One can also reasonably ask as to whether these reforms should have be given more of a chance to work in mainland China.
Well the same situation doesn't seem to bother the Americans when they are celebrating their Independence Day, even though they were supposedly fighting for "Freedom and Democracy", they didn't exactly put those values to test now did they?
George Washington, the "Father" of the US, was know to have held slaves. Thomas Jefferson, the principal author of the Declaration of Independence, owned hundreds of slaves in his lifetimes and used slaves to sustain his (and his family's) lifestyle.
Now non of this seems to bother the Americans when they celebrate Independence Day (it could be that American education is so poor that they don't even mention this although I doubt it), but most Americans seem to just ignore this part of history and go on celebrating "Freedom".

Co-workers are great - not managers nor anyone in management; they feed a lot of students.Cons
Snotty management, incompetent people promoted into management, poor food & service standards. Their work in the dorms and other food areas is pretty bad - unimaginative and formulaic food.
The new managers they hired for the sports venues have run the place into the ground - their 'leadership' sucks and they can't keep food in the stands, running out of basics like soda flavors, pretzels and pizza - do you not know how to plan for a 6,000 attendee event? Don't you know how to order so you don't run out of product? A great school like the University of Denver, their students and those who attend events at the school deserve much better than the piss-poor management who run Sodexo for the school.Advice to ManagementAdvice
Figure out how to up your game or get out of it altogether; you should be embarrassed by what goes on under your purview. Stop acting like jerks - no one wants to work for you and that should be the biggest hint of all; however, none of you seem smart enough to take that hint.
Fix the wrongs at the sports venues - yesterday's Avs hockey game was a total disaster and you and the stands seemed totally unprepared; how do you run out of the basics? Were you even aware that there was an event that would run during lunchtime and people would be eating?
Again, the University deserves much better than what you're dishing out. For a University that embraces so much good, it's baffling to me that they would continue to contract with Sodexo - who only seems to care about making a cheap buck off their lousy food.Doesn't RecommendDisapproves of CEO

Barbados, the Inland and the Beaches!
One charming location in the core of the Caribbean palm beach tanning prices, where you can acquire some remainder and also relax is for sure the island Barbados. Found north eastern for Venezuela, it's a very interesting area to go to, as in such a little island you could experience a normally Caribbean way of life and the satisfaction of some really relaxing coastlines at the very same time. Starting with the coastlines, they have a various look depending if you're going to check out the ones in the West coast or the ones in the East coast. The West coast is more business; even more folks (ou visitors I should state), even more shopping areas as well as a wealthier way of life are possibly the main feature of that section of the island. While the East coastline is much more "natural"; just few beaches are "designed" for everyone, or anyhow not as lots of as in the West coast. I would certainly suggest the East coast if you are more into distinct sights as well as landscapes rather than acquiring some tan as well as unwind on the coastline. The East coast is where you will see a few of the hallmarks of this island: those huge stones that lie following to the coastline and that appears like will certainly roll to the coastline eventually. The West coastline is more particular for its palm-trees, that in some areas are almost alongside the ground, really good to view (and also to climb too)!
To none of these two sides of the island belongs the most prominent as well as probably one of the most gorgeous coastline of Barbados: Crane coastline. Situated southern east of the island, it's in fact a brief tract, but with lovely white sand. All these great and also unique features of the island entices several travelers from throughout the world annually. I bet they spend a lot of their there, either on the West coastline or in Crane beach, and this would totally seem sensible to me also. This likewise makes me wonder if travelers likewise acquire a possibility to go visit the inland of Barbados, which is really attractive, but totally different from the shores. After spending a few days seeing the Barbados coasts, I went to the inland and I really felt like I was visiting one more nation or continent. What made me get to that point was the massive gap that I discovered between the way of living around the coasts and also the one inside the island; and I'm talking about simply few kilometers/miles off the coastlines. It's somehow amazing just how life can look so good, soothing and also rich at one factor, yet then it takes just couple of kilometers to get almost into the other situation, where the level of comfort is way lower than the among the "boundaries" of the island.
It was my very first time in a place like that, with a substantial disparity among neighborhoods of the exact same nation and also it was interesting to experience it. I bet that any individual that originates from a country where the lifestyle and the degree of convenience is pretty much the exact same everywhere (as it is my situation), Barbados could be a very fascinating place to visit and also to open your thoughts also, to make you understand that it doesn't necessarily take hrs or days of travel to get to a completely different scenario.
Splash Out With Some Browsing In Singapore
Singapore is an island, bordering by waters clear and also tidy with several of the nicest coastlines this side of the Asian area. As an island, we are bordered by waters of the Indonesian Straits and also some convergences of the Pacific and also Indian Ocean. While we don't acquire the mile high waves that some of the various other islands in various other regions of the world, surfing in singapore coach is a reality today. Many nay sayers of old stated that Singapore can not suffice as a searching destination and I state this holds true. For the hardcore internet user, Singapore can not pair up geographically as well as nautical ally to several of the wall surfaces of water that Hawaii, Australia as well as parts of New Zealand; just to name a few, could provide to them. Adventures and also spills, erase and also breathtaking moments are not the by word of the water sporting activity landscape in these islands, but ultimately of the day,
Singapore offers a various perspective on the sport. Wake boarding as well as wind browsing are a few of the popular activities that you can enjoy yourself with in our waters as well as Sentosa is just one of the prime places for you to do this. An island in itself, it was named after the Malay word that implied 'tranquil'. Throughout the years, the facilities on the island have actually burgeoned to the point where households and also sporting activities lovers could do whatever they desire, consisting of browsing. This brings me to the entire level of this post. Singapore is not a hardcore surfing destination as well as does not act to be one. It isn't really the haven of X-games professionals, this is the smooth as well as svelte individual friendly island for the whole family. Wake boarding, the secure surfing has actually truly caught on with youngsters and also grownups alike. Rental of wake boards are available at mostly all the significant coastlines across Singapore.
You can additionally do kite surfing as well as cruise searching, all you have to do is visit any one of the sail clubs situated in Sentosa, Changi and also the West Shore. Getting started is pretty simple and also the finding out contour is generous. Several of these locations provide training services and coaching just before you start so you know you have the assistance required just before you determine to go off on your own. Whether you are behind the watercraft or using the waves by yourself, the possibility for some protected and also friendly fun is there. If you are seeking to ride your surf board right into the sunset and also conquer the waves, then you would have better good luck in countries like Indonesia or perhaps Australia if you have the cash. They are fairly nearby as well as you will certainly obtain the difficulty you require. If you are seeking some family members fun browsing or simply having a good, in some cases awkward time with your pals, then Singapore is the location for you. If you browse, there are often likeminded folks splashing around, having some fun browsing in Singapore.

Secret Supermarket Witticism
I believe that the majority of people will concur that grocery shopping is a somewhat of a task. It's not particularly interesting, and the majority of the time it's a repeated bore. Additionally, one needs to emulate crowds, discourteous buyers, shouting children, spills, scents, hurdles, back-breaking lifting publix deli and also bring when one obtains house, as well as the total pressure on one's budget plan. The last point that would anticipate is the possibility that grocery stores may be showing a less compared to significant side.
It was while I was shopping in a supermarket just recently, that I started to ponder the opportunity that there might be secret messages and also jokes concealed for discriminating consumers to locate. Now when I state secret messages, I do not imply subliminal advertising, or some sort of diabolical story. Instead it was the area of a specific grocery thing near an additional, that established my imagination into overdrive.
In several grocery stores in Australia, and I assume in various other nations too, a tiny team of unrelated products are typically put on hanging hooks as well as displays on the outside of the typical rack display screens. For instance, you may discover affordable girl's bracelets hanging from a small display screen in the soup part, or dog collars hanging from a pole in the cereal aisle. Obviously these items are totally unrelated as well as arbitrary, appropriate?
Yet suppose several of them aren't? What if it's not quite as indiscriminate as we assume? Suppose there alreadies existing such a thing as "secret grocery store humour"? Suppose we are going through a specific shop assistant's sense of humour? Suppose you have been shopping in the exact same grocery store for many years as well as have completely missed out on the subtlety of their jokes?
The incident that stimulated my musings on this subject, were the tiny collection of products that I located in the baked grains area of a local grocery store. Hanging unobtrusively from the baked grains rack as if they really did not have a care in the world, was an option of whoopee pillows.
While the topic of baked grains, flatulence and whoopee cushions could not be the stuff of enhanced discussion, I challenge you that can help me in my pursuit to research study this additionally. Will you join me? Are grocery stores having a joke with us? If so, I say, allow's motivate them in their efforts. Nevertheless, it might merely give a little light relief and also make grocery store shopping much less of a job.

"I'm the world's best predator, aren't I? Everything about me invites you in – my voice, my face, even my smell. As if I need any of that!" Unexpectedly, he was on his feet, bounding away, instantly out of sight, only to appear beneath the same tree as before, having circled the meadow in half a second.
"As if you could outrun me," he laughed bitterly.
He reached up with one hand and, with a deafening crack, effortlessly ripped a two-foot-thick branch from the trunk of the spruce. He balanced it in that hand for a moment, and then threw it with blinding speed, shattering it against another huge tree, which shook and trembled at the blow.
And he was in front of me again, standing two feet away, still as a stone.
"As if you could fight me off," he said gently.
I sat without moving, more frightened of him than I had ever been. I'd never seen him so completely freed of that carefully cultivated façade. He'd never been less human… or more beautiful. Face ashen, eyes wide, I sat like a bird locked in the eyes of a snake.
His lovely eyes seem to glow with rash excitement. Then, as the seconds passed, they dimmed. His expression slowly folded into a mask of ancient sadness.
"Don't be afraid," he murmured, his velvet voice unintentionally seductive. "I promise… " He hesitated. "I swear not to hurt you."
"Ah, young love," an unfamiliar voice murmured from behind me. "How nauseating."
I turned around – there, in the meadow, was a woman with long, dark hair and heavily-lidded eyes. She was holding a stick of some sort and caressing it absentmindedly, while her eyes scrutinized us.
I felt Edward tense. He stepped in front of me. "Run," he murmured, his voice so soft only I could hear him.
"There's no need to be quite so rude," she woman said. "I just want to play." She approached us slowly, a hyena's smile on her full lips.
He growled – a low, menacing sound. It was the scariest sound I'd ever heard. "We don't want to play your kind of games."
"Are you always like this to people you've just met?" she asked. "That's not very nice, is it? I think it's time someone taught you some manners." Her laugh was high and terrifying – the laugh of a madwoman. She pointed the stick at Edward and said, with obvious glee, "Crucio."
I didn't understand what she was trying to do. Then I saw Edward lying on the green forest ground, his face contorted like he was in pain. After about five seconds, he let out an ear-piercing wail of pain.
The woman's eyes lit up.
She enjoys this, I realized in horror.
Immediately, I could feel nothing but worry for Edward. What was she doing to him? Why didn't she stop? What hurt? How could I help him?
I looked around for something to throw at the woman, but all I could see were flowers, trees, and Edward's beautiful, sparkling skin. Well, then I just had to make do with myself, I decided.
With a war-cry I'd never thought I had, I threw myself at the woman, pushing her out of the way. My action had the desired effect: she was caught off guard and fell to the ground. Edwards screaming stopped.
Still lying on the ground, the woman looked at me in shock.
"How – how dare you touch me!" she shrieked. She got up so swiftly it was hard to follow. "How dare you, a filthy Muggle, touch me?" She spat the word 'Muggle', though I had no idea what it meant. I knew it wasn't something nice, though.
'Stay away from her,' Edward gasped. 'Don't you - '
She pointed the stick at him again, and he was silent. His mouth still moved, but it didn't make a sound. She didn't even look at him – her eyes, filled with contempt, were still fixed on my face.
'You are going to pay for this,' she told me. She did a step towards me, and I automatically stepped backwards – stumbling over my own feet and landing on my ass with a soft thud. Shit.
She pointed the stick at me.
It felt like my insides were burning. Like someone was stabbing a knife in every single bone of my body, no, not just knives - heated knives, oh, it hurt, it hurt so bad. I prayed for it to stop, to lessen, for someone to kill me already so it would be over. I think I screamed for that, too – I wasn't sure. I just screamed my lungs out, hoping it would somehow ease the pain.
And then it stopped. Just like that.
Gasping, I looked around, trying to understand what had happened. Edward was circling the woman, making snarling sounds. Even when he was this terrifying, I could still appreciate his beauty: the way the sun reflected off his skin like glitters, his perfect build, his muscled chest.
The woman didn't seem to agree, though.
"You know what?" she said, after a couple of seconds. She cocked her head, contemplating. "I'm bored. Avada Kedavra." She pointed the want at Edward – and he fell down, like a puppet whose strings were cut.
And he didn't get up.
"Edward?" I whispered, moving closer to him. I knew it was just a trick – so he could attack her later on. But then why did he lie so still, why was he so pale, so statue-like? I put my hand on his shoulder, shook him. It was then that I realized I shouldn't be able to shake him. And that he wasn't as hard as stone anymore – he felt just like me, except colder.
The woman laughed again.
I turned around to face her. "What have you done to him?" I demanded, anger colouring my voice.
"I've killed him. Isn't that obvious?" she asked.
The words hit me like stones. She'd killed him? No. That wasn't possibly – he was Edward. He was the most invincible creature I'd ever met. He was a vampire. He was already dead, goddammit! He couldn't just –
Just like that –
"You're lying," I breathed.
"No, he's really quite dead, look," she said, as if she was talking about the weather. She moved over to us – I flinched back from her instinctively – and gave Edward a kick in his groin. He didn't react.
Then again, he used to be indestructible – maybe he just hadn't felt it. He was just keeping up the façade. That had to be it.
"See?" she said, smugly. "Your weird, sparkly boyfriend is dead. Or, even if he weren't, I think he's infertile now, so you shouldn't waste your time with him anymore, anyway." She shrugged. "Oh, well. Avada Kedavra."
A jet of green light.
