First get a api key for google url shortner from here https://developers.google.com/url-shortener/
Then replace the API_KEY in the command
This assumes you have the 'rpm', 'rpm2cpio' and 'cpio' packages installed. This will extract the contents of the RPM package to your current directory. This is useful for working with the files that the package provides without installing the package on your system. Might be useful to create a temporary directory to hold the packages before running the extraction:
$ mkdir /tmp/new-package/; cd /tmp/new-package
Print only the matched pattern at the console
Converts any number of seconds into days, hours, minutes and seconds.

D=$(( SS / 86400 ))
H=$(( SS % 86400 / 3600 ))
M=$(( SS % 3600 / 60 ))
S=$(( SS % 60 ))

can be used within a script to configure iptables for example:
iface=$2
inet_ip=`ifconfig "$iface" | grep inet | cut -d: -f2 | cut -d ' ' -f1`
ipt="sudo /sbin/iptables"

$ipt -A INPUT -i $iface ! -f -p tcp -s $UL -d $inet_ip --sport 1023: --dport 3306 -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
$ipt -A OUTPUT -o $iface -p tcp -s $inet_ip -d $UL --sport 3306 --dport 1023: -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT

It works best as part of a function, such as the following:
MUSICROOT=~/Music
function fplay {
if [ $1 = '-v' ]; then
shift 1
find -E $MUSICROOT -type f -iname "*$**" -iregex '.*\.(3g[2|p]|aac|ac3|adts|aif[c|f]?|amr|and|au|caf|m4[a|r|v]|mp[1-4|a]|mpeg[0,9]?|sd2|wav)' -print -exec afplay "{}" \; &
else
find -E $MUSICROOT -type f -iname "*$**" -iregex '.*\.(3g[2|p]|aac|ac3|adts|aif[c|f]?|amr|and|au|caf|m4[a|r|v]|mp[1-4|a]|mpeg[0,9]?|sd2|wav)' -exec afplay "{}" \; &
fi
}
the block of the loop is useful whenever you have huge junks of similar jobs, e.g., convert high res images to thumbnails, and make usage out of all the SMP power on your compute box without flooding the system.
note: c is used as counter and the random sleep
$ r=`echo $RANDOM%5 |bc`; echo "sleep $r"; sleep $r
is just used as a dummy command.
