polishlinux.org: Let me ask you a basic question: Which operating system do you use? What are the possible answers? Windows, Linux, Solaris or Mac OS X of course. But let us try to think different for a moment. Maybe it is possible, that this answer would be it is Nexenta GNU/OpenSolaris.
CMake: simple, effective and efficientSubmitted by srlinuxx on Monday 4th of February 2008 11:03:46 PM Filed under
rg03.wordpress: Writing programs that support multiple platforms is sometimes complicated. The bigger the program is, the closer to the system it is and the more libraries it uses, the more complicated it is to keep it multiplatform. When someone realized typing the compiler commands by hand everytime they wanted to rebuild a project was tiresome at best, they had to do something.
There's more to Linux than UbuntuSubmitted by srlinuxx on Monday 4th of February 2008 08:55:32 PM Filed under

Dr. Ian K. Smith's Shred is the answer to every dieter's biggest dilemmas: how to lose that last twenty pounds? How to push through that frustrating plateau? What to do when nothing else is working? Here, Smith has created a weight loss program that uses all he knows about strategic dieting in one plan--like putting all the best players on the field at once to create a can't lose combination. Shred combines a low GI diet, meal spacing, and meal replacements. Those who follow Shred will constantly be eating (every three and a half hours ), four meals or meal replacements (soups, smoothies, shakes) and 3 snacks a day, over a six week program. Shred also introduces Dr. Ian's concept of "Diet Confusion." Diet Confusion, like muscle confusion, tricks the body and revs up its performance. In the same way you need to vary your workout to see results, switch up your food intake to boost your metabolism. No matter how often or how unsuccessfully you've dieted before, Shred: The Revolutionary Diet will change your life. Shred has taken the internet by storm, and thousands have already joined Dr. Ian's Shredder Nation, losing an average of four inches, two sizes or twenty pounds in six weeks. Utilizing the detox from Fat Smash Diet, the intense cleanse of Extreme Fat Smash, and varying food of The 4 Day Diet, Shred is a six week plan to a new way of life

Customer review by Slim78
I was needing a book that would outline what to eat everyday and I finally got one. If you stick to it you will get result. I tend to still eat the same thing everyday, even though you have a wide range of food to eat. I suggest that you don't do that because you will get bored and want to cheat. It was just easy for me because of my schedule to eat the same item. Fruit smoothie and protein drinks would be great, but I like to have these drink as a frozen drink and wasn't convenient for me to take to work. I am on week three and it calls for protein, milkshakes and fruit smoothies for three days for each meal so now I am going to have make a way to have them even not frozen. I like this diet because it really not anything that you can't have. I have to force myself to eat because you will not get hungry because you are eating 4 meals a day with 3 snacks and that was more than I would ever eat in a day. But it tells you that you don't have to eat it all but make sure you eat.
Customer review by Thankful7
Dr. Ian's book is wonderful! He totally lays everything out for you!! The plan is written out, step-by-step, for us to follow. It is exactly what I need. The book provides different food options which is a huge plus for me. Although I am overweight, I am a very finicky eater and the options provided in the book helps me to be successful every day. I am only on Day 5 of the plan and my husband has already told me that he notices some weight loss!! Dr. Ian, thank you so much. This is the best and easiest diet plan I have ever seen. Who would have ever thought that eating 7 times per day would cause me to lose weight!! Try it!

New video shows stolen cruiser strike officer
The couple who stole 2 cruisers during a heroin-fueled crime spree hit an officer, breaking his leg
By PoliceOne Staff
CAMDEN, N.J. — A new video of the couple who led police on a pursuit using two stolen cruisers reveals the moment an officer was injured when he was in their path.
Officer Sekou Reid-Bay, 49, was out of his vehicle when Blake Bills jumped into it and took off, striking the officer, breaking his leg, according to ABC 6.
Witnesses can be seen running into Camden Police Headquarters to alert them, and a group of officers run out to see what's happened.
Bills and his girlfriend, Shayna Sykes, who stole a second cruiser later, were arrested and charged with attempted murder, carjacking, aggravated assault, and other offenses.
Officer Reid-Bay was released from the hospital Wednesday, according to the article.

Vienna - Riverboat Dock Location?
Does anyone know where the riverboats dock in Vienna? What is the proximity to "The Ring"? Is the distance walkable for an average walker?
Report Abuse
The Ringstrasse isn't really within easy walking distance of the boat docks, but right across the street is a u-bahn station that will take you where you want to go.
Report Abuse
Thanks Underhill --- can I assume that the area around the boat docks doesn't offer much in the way of amenities? Can you tell me how long of a ride on the u-bahn this would be? Also, displaying my ignorance of Vienna, is the u-bahn a subway system?
Report Abuse
We walked about a block to the Vienna metro from the boat docks and used it exclusively all over the city. The staff on the ship gave us a map and directions amd were encouraging everyone to use the metro; we were surprised that we were the only ones who went off by ourselves.It was very easy to use and signage was clear.We went into St. Stephen's and the historical center and also out to the the summer Schonbrunn Palace in about 20 minutes from the boat area.
Report Abuse
Thanks for the tips - is there anything around the boat docks themselves?
Report Abuse
The dock area is similar to a park.You walk through a neighborhood, safe enough, but not where I'd want to eat, etc. to get to the Metro- the signage is a "U" for underground I presume.
Report Abuse
No, there's not much of interest around the dock.
Report Abuse
The U-bahn is the Vienna subway system.You find it easily - just look for a large white " U" on a blue background sign.
The line U-1 is the line that stops very near to the Danube River docking area. The station name is Vorgartenstrasse.
It is about a 4 stop 5-7 minute ride to the city center ( St. Stephens Cathedral ) 1 more stop to the Opera and the Ringstrasse.
A one trip ticket is 1,50 euro. A better bargain is a one day card for 5 euro. This allows unlimited rides on all Vienna bus, streetcar and subway ( U-bahn ) lines.
You can buy the tickets from automatic machines at the entrance to the stations.Be certain to stamp the ticket in the blue box machine nearby to validate it.
Not much near the docking area - a restaurant- cafe can be found as you walk from the dock to the U-bahn.
If you walk across the bridge at the docks to Donau Insel ( Danube Island) you will find many cafes and bars on the far side ( perhaps 10m minute walk maximum) a fun place for the young of Vienna - many " older " folk also.Not really much happening until the evening- but some places are open all day and have a nice atmosphere.
Report Abuse
Great information everyone, and thank you for it!

Product Description
From Amazon
"Every summer Lin Kong returned to Goose Village to divorce his wife, Shuyu." Like a fairy tale, Ha Jin's masterful novel of love and politics begins with a formula--and like a fairy tale, Waiting uses its slight, deceptively simple framework to encompass a wide range of truths about the human heart. Lin Kong is a Chinese army doctor trapped in an arranged marriage that embarrasses and repels him. (Shuyu has country ways, a withered face, and most humiliating of all, bound feet.) Nevertheless, he's content with his tidy military life, at least until he falls in love with Manna, a nurse at his hospital. Regulations forbid an army officer to divorce without his wife's consent--until 18 years have passed, that is, after which he is free to marry again. So, year after year Lin asks his wife for his freedom, and year after year he returns from the provincial courthouse: still married, still unable to consummate his relationship with Manna. Nothing feeds love like obstacles placed in its way--right? But Jin's novel answers the question of what might have happened to Romeo and Juliet had their romance been stretched out for several decades. In the initial confusion of his chaste love affair, Lin longs for the peace and quiet of his "old rut." Then killing time becomes its own kind of rut, and in the end, he is forced to conclude that he "waited eighteen years just for the sake of waiting."
There's a political allegory here, of course, but it grows naturally from these characters' hearts. Neither Lin nor Manna is especially ideological, and the tumultuous events occurring around them go mostly unnoticed. They meet during a forced military march, and have their first tender moment during an opera about a naval battle. (While the audience shouts, "Down with Japanese Imperialism!" the couple holds hands and gazes dreamily into each other's eyes.) When Lin is in Goose Village one summer, a mutual acquaintance rapes Manna; years later, the rapist appears on a TV report titled "To Get Rich Is Glorious," after having made thousands in construction. Jin resists hammering ideological ironies like these home, but totalitarianism's effects on Lin are clear:
Let me tell you what really happened, the voice said. All those years you waited torpidly, like a sleepwalker, pulled and pushed about by others' opinions, by external pressure, by your illusions, by the official rules you internalized. You were misled by your own frustration and passivity, believing that what you were not allowed to have was what your heart was destined to embrace.Ha Jin himself served in the People's Liberation Army, and in fact left his native country for the U.S. only in 1985. That a non-native speaker can produce English of such translucence and power is truly remarkable--but really, his prose is the least of the miracles here. Improbably, Jin makes an unconsummated 18-year love affair loom as urgent as political terror or war, while history-changing events gain the immediacy of a domestic dilemma. Gracefully phrased, impeccably paced, Waiting is the kind of realist novel you thought was no longer being written. --Mary Park --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
From Publishers Weekly
Jin's quiet but absorbing second novel (after In the Pond) captures the poignant dilemma of an ordinary man who misses the best opportunities in his life simply by trying to do his duty—as defined first by his traditional Chinese parents and later by the Communist Party. Reflecting the changes in Chinese communism from the '60s to the '80s, the novel focuses on Lin Kong, a military doctor who agrees, as his mother is dying, to an arranged marriage. His bride, Shuyu, turns out to be a country woman who looks far older than her 26 years and who has, to Lin's great embarrassment, lotus (bound) feet. While Shuyu remains at Lin's family home in Goose Village, nursing first his mother and then his ailing father, and bearing Lin a daughter, Lin lives far away in an army hospital compound, visiting only once a year. Caught in a loveless marriage, Lin is attacted to a nurse, Manna Wu, an attachment forbidden by communist strictures. According to local Party rules, Lin cannot divorce his wife without her permission until they have been separated for 18 years. Although Jin infuses movement and some suspense into Lin's and Manna's sometimes resigned, sometimes impatient waiting—they will not consummate their relationship until Lin is free—it is only in the novel's third section, when Lin finally secures a divorce, that the story gathers real force. Though inaction is a risky subject and the thoughts of a cautious man make for a rather deliberate prose style (the first two sections describe the moments the characters choose not to act), the final chapters are moving and deeply ironic, proving again that this poet and award-winning short story writer can deliver powerful long fiction about a world alien to most Western readers. (Oct.) FYI: Jin served six years in the People's Liberation Army, and came to the U.S. in 1985.

"Waiting" tells a story about a doctor, Lin Kong, who was well-read, decent, and kind-hearted, but had some serious short-comings that had caused misery and trouble for himself, his lover, and his family. He didn't love his wife Shuyu (an arranged marriage) because she was not attractive, and she couldn't read. As a result, he felt ashamed to let Shuyu visit him in the city where he worked. So for many years while this marriage continued, he only went home to visit his family in the village for 10 days a year. He had one daughter with Shuyu. And he never made love to her after their daughter was born. Shuyu, though illiterate, was a loyal and dependable wife. She took good care of Lin's parents until they passed away, and she brought up Lin's daughter all on her own (with Lin's salary he sent home). She always thought that Lin and her would be husband and wife for the rest of their lives.
Meanwhile, Manna, a colleague of Lin, found him attractive and pursued him. He was happy to have woman who had education and who looked good, so he accepted Manna, and started a romantic relationship. However, due to the pressure of the society and the Party, he couldn't have an intimate relationship with Manna while he was still married to Shuyu. An official who was on friendly terms with Lin cautioned him not to get "physical" with Manna, or punishment would fall upon them (being kicked out of the Party and demobilized and sent to the countryside).
Manna loved Lin dearly (although she had her own agenda at times and had never trusted Lin in revealing her finance), and pressured Lin to divorce Shuyu so that the two of them could be together lawfully. However, Lin was not a brave or resolute man.Read more ›
Lin cannot get a divorce from his loveless, embarrassing (she has bound feet) arranged marriage without consent from his wife until 18 years have passed. He promises Manna that he will try, summer after summer when he goes home to his village, but he never succeeds. His repulsion for his wife increases, as does his secret ardor for Manna, but even early on the reader can sense that all is not what it appears to be, for rather than Manna Wu herself, Lin has fallen in love with the anticipatory, things-are-going-to-change nature of waiting. And also he loves the allure of what he cannot have, which seems to be the ironic political moral of Ha Jin's story.
Because of the beautiful descriptions and the capsule of Chinese life that is experienced through the novel, I definitely recommend _Waiting_. However, I think it would help to go into the book knowing that it is a parable rather than a romance. I know it would have helped me.
In the book, Lin Kong tried to divorce his peasant wife Shuyu unsuccessfully for 18 years. Some reviewers here argued that it's actually very easy to divorce a woman in China in the 50s or 60s. But I think they are missing the point. Of course, in the book other officers divorced their wives easily. Lin clearly didn't try hard enough, because he was ambivalent towards both women. He thought he had no love for Shuyu, but he's also not sure if he really wanted a marriage with Manna, his lover. He never thought hard about his relationships. So, the court's rejections were actually his excuses for inaction.
On another level, I can really identify with the characters in the story. My grandmother had bound feet, and she was a quiet, always obedient woman just like Shuyu. I also could understand Lin Kong's indecisiveness and apparent lack of emotions. He's an intellect, and it's considered superior in China to be a reserved man. But the writing is very touching and moving. These characters were just like us here, with real emotions like jealousy and fear, and their lives were plain, just like most of ours.
I definitely don't think the book was written to exaggerate the conditions during cultural revolution in China, or to be exotic as to appeal to a western audience. I have read many other books that were like that, where the characters endured unimaginable sufferings and then triumphed miraculously. In this book, life is strangely familiar and similar to what we have here. I enthusiastically recommend this book.
The protagonist, Lin Kong, is in a traditionally arranged marriage with a woman whom Lin finds unsatisfactory even before the marriage, though his dissatisfaction with her lies almost entirely on her physical appearances. As a doctor and soldier, Lin lives in the city where he is stationed, and returns to his rural country home annually. Lin inadvertently complicates by falling in love with an attractive nurse, who also is a soldier working at the same hospital. During the course of twenty years, Lin repeatedly requests a divorce, something traditionally frowned upon, and virtually impossible to obtain via the communist regime. Thus, the story revolves around the doctor's dilemma and the two women who inextricably complicate his entire adult life.
Waiting is a love story that seems to be at the mercy of a fickle, communist regime, where trends are determined by current political interpretation and thought. Love is put on hold, sacrificed for the greater good of the State; there to stagnate, as opposed to being nurtured naturally through intimacy, trust and affection. Among the many subtle messages in this novel, Ha Jin shows us that emotions, including and perhaps especially, love, cannot be regulated as one would try to regulate and control the economy. There are forces in nature more powerful than any dictatorial force thus discovered.Read more ›

I ordered a high top table with bar stools and a short table with regular tables came to my home.I thought me and my husband ordered it so i asked the guys who delivered it if it was my order and he responded YES.
I asked my husband and my husband said that we did order the high top with the barstools. to top that off the table is limping and 2 weeks of arguing with the phone rep I went to the stoor directly and they looked in my account and told me a different story on my purchase and then went right back to the same one. I asked to see a store manager and the store manager was really rude. the dining room set was expensive and it was fake steel.
2 of the chairs are limping and it has been 3 months and i am still waiting for there call because they said they were coming back to fix the problem. Even calling corporate their customer service is crappy.

Artifacts: Intra-mural
By ANNA WELTNER
Public art can be so … pedestrian. But a new mural going up at the San Luis Obispo City/County Library seems out to defy this stereotype. It's coming from Dominican artist Robert Maja, one of the first artists to participate in the Box Art project (you know, those painted utility boxes in downtown SLO) back in 2010. His own Cubist-inspired electrical box is on display on the corner of Monterey and Santa Rosa streets.
The new mural, titled World Movement, will revitalize the interior of the library (which is more than 23 years old). The piece was created "to touch on the idea of forward motion and social progress within in the social framework of many communities worldwide," according to a press release issued by the library.
Recognized both internationally and in his home country of the Dominican Republic, Maja attended fine art school in Santo Domingo before studying visual arts in Madrid, Spain. Maja went on to win many juried exhibitions throughout the United States and Europe. The artist, who has long worked with youth, was named the official muralist with youth programs for the Dominican presidency, a post he's held for the past four years.
A preview of the work reveals a vibrant, textured tableau of people engaged in art and leisure. Blue- and red-haired musicians pour their souls into their instruments, while diners chat outdoors at a Cubist café. Street scenes blend seamlessly into images of city life, their lines and patterns synchronizing.
"Throughout Robert's travels, he has discovered that within each individual community, there are many more similarities than differences," press materials explain. "We all experience our own unique movements with respect to gastronomy, music, dance, culture, technology, and education. All these are interwoven and form part of the human experience, which should be shared and revered by all."
When finished, World Movement will cover 80 feet of the library's atrium. The mural, which has been in the works for a year already, is the project of the city of San Luis Obispo's Visual Arts in Public Places Program, the San Luis Obispo Friends of the Library, Harold J. Miossi Charitable Trust, and the artist. ∆

SWEDEN: H&M comparable sales slide 5% in October
By Leonie Barrie | 15 November 2012
Swedish fashion retailer H&M Hennes & Mauritz AB today (15 November) said its comparable sales fell 5% in October, the largest drop since April.
Comparable units comprise the stores and the internet and catalogue sales countries that have been in operation for at least a financial year.
Revenue at local currency rates and including VAT rose 4% compared to October last year, helped by the addition of 305 new stores during the year.
The retailer currently operates 2,715 stores. Its results have fluctuated over the course of the year, with a 16% comparable sales gain in March followed by a 10% drop in April.
Analysts had expected the sales momentum seen in September, when comparable sales increased 6% and total sales surged 15%, to have continued into October.
But Bank of America Merryll Lynch analyst Richard Chamberlain noted: "As quite often happens in apparel seasons, a strong month can be followed by a weaker one."
He said strong sales in September are likely to have carried on into the first week of October, but may have slowed as temperatures were higher than average in many parts of Europe.
But he added: "This result is likely to raise some concerns over the strength of H&M's offer this season and means that further investments in quality/style may be necessary."

Sexist! Racist! Fascist! Along with the feral Left's violence outside the GOP presidential candidate's rallies, those accusations have been the soundtrack of Hillary Clinton's orchestrated smear campaign. No surprise there, but why are some conservatives joining the chorus?
What is it about Trump that some conservatives find so distressing? You'd expect progressives to be disturbed, of course, even before you get to policies. Trump is a manly, no nonsense, successful businessman. When you do consider policies, the nightmare deepens.
He is unashamedly proud of his country, and has made it clear that when it comes to foreign policy and trade, he intends to put its interests first. He is pro-life, and supports police and the military. He supports Israel, and Israel's right to defend itself. He does not buy into currently popular (and in some circles mandatory) issues like global warming and multiculturalism.
A horror story for progressives. But why are some conservatives also lining up under the #nevertrump banner? Only a few percent; not enough to influence the outcome of the Republican Convention. But a few percent of conservatives who refuse to vote, or vote for a third party candidate, may be all it takes to get Hillary Clinton over the line and into the White House.
First in the litany of Trump's faults is this: He's a fascist! The word fascist comes from Latin fasces, a bundle of rods tied together, sometimes with a protruding axe blade. In Roman times it was symbol of magisterial authority. The meaning is that the state is stronger when all its members think and act in concert. Fascism subsumes the interests of individuals and families to the perceived needs of the state, in the belief that citizens are eventually better off if everyone serves the same purposes and works towards the same objectives.
Explaining in detail why this is wrong and does not work would take a much longer essay than this. The question for now is, "Is this the position that Donald Trump espouses?" Hardly. Trump's central policy positions are small, low-tax, non-interventionist government, free speech, and individual and family rights. The exact opposite of an authoritarian, all-encompassing central government.
Well, then, he's a racist! Racism is not intrinsic to fascism, although the two are often conflated. Is Trump a racist? No one has been able to point to specific instances where Trump has abused or disadvantaged anyone on the basis of race. He has been publicly supported by black and Hispanic staff and former staff, by black pastors and business people, by immigrants of a variety of ethnic and cultural backgrounds, many of whom who share his concern over illegal immigration. It is assumed in some circles that if you believe illegal immigration is a problem, you must do so on the basis of race, because you are xenophobic. Showing that to be untrue is as easy as going to Youtube and looking for Hispanics for Trump.
Well then, he is an islamophobe! Here, as others have pointed out, it isn't a phobia if there is genuinely something to fear. Since September 11, 2001, over 28,000 terror attacks have been made on civilians specifically in the name of Allah and Muhammad. In the name of all other religions? About one-tenth of one percent of that figure. ISIS, and before ISIS Al Qaeda, have called on all muslims everywhere to undertake random murders of civilian populations in non-muslim countries. Very few will take up that call. But very few will speak out against those who do, or explain how the Koran's command to "slay the unbelievers wherever you find them" is to be set aside while at the same time maintaining the Quran's commands apply for all time to all muslims everywhere. There is sufficient reason to be concerned, despite the French Prime Minister's pronouncement after Nice that we must get used to living with terror, or Waleed Aly's claim after the Boston bombing that terrorism is not an existential threat, merely "an irritant". How to deal with Islamic terror is another question, but recognising that it is a problem is a good first step. Taking ordinary people's fears about it seriously is a good second step.

The tremendous growth in Bangladesh's exports has been due to three factors – the global recession, new markets and China's spectacular economic growth.
Multi-party democracy in Maldives is facing a major crisis in the wake of a bitter political struggle between the president and the opposition-dominated national parliament.
Recent arrests prove the close relationship between Jamaat-e-Islami Bangladesh and extremist groups that have vowed to turn Bangladesh into an Islamic state.
There is a need to modify existing laws and if need be create new ones so that extremists and terrorists do not go scot-free and continue to pose a threat to the country.
If the growth of Islamic extremism and terrorism in Bangladesh is a threat to Indian security, then the presence of China with which India's interests have the potential to clash is also of security concern.
The Maldives is well on the road towards a genuine democracy and the years to come will show how it manages modernisation, liberal democracy and Islam all together.
The latest arrests underline the lack of cooperation among security agencies in South Asia and the support base that exists in Bangladesh for terrorist groups.
The punishment of Mujib's killers will hopefully now delegitimize this process and strengthen democracy in Bangladesh.
