What does Polyphemus do when he finds out Odysseus' name?

Polyphemus laments, recalling when the seer Telemus told him that he would one day be blinded by Odysseus. The cyclops then calls out to his father Poseidon, and asks him to curse Odysseus. He asks him to kill Odysseus before he returns home or if Odysseus is fated to return home, then to ensure that he arrives alone on someone else's ship, having lost all of his crew, and with trouble in his home.

How long does Odysseus stay with the Phaeacians?

Okay So, Odysseus gets there after a terrible storm. On his first day there Nausicca, the princess, finds him, and Athena guides him to meet the king and queen. They give him a place to sleep and I believe he rests there, and the next day he stays with them and dines. Here they have a small contest and Odysseus is taunted in which he throws the discus. He after wards reveals himself and tells stories until late at night. The next day he awakens, eats with the Phaeacians and they give a ship and crew. He later left and set sail for home. All together I would say from the summary that I've given he spent somewhere between 2 & a half days to 3 days with the Phaeacians.
