This prevented the dump box from being fully raised. He was in a furious passion, [305] and stood in the vestibule making a dreadful noise as he shouted to all the gods. [25] Come in, my dear child, and sit down, that I may gladden my heart [thmos] looking at you now you are home again; it is not very often you come into the country to see us herdsmen; you stick pretty close to the town generally. I am now safe to perish. To-day is the feast of Apollo throughout all the district [dmos]; who can string a bow on such a day as this? We never yet heard of such a woman; we know all about [120] Tyro, Alkmene, Mycenae, wearer of garlands, and the famous women of old. Telemachus gave him no heed, [385] but sat silently watching his father, expecting every moment that he would begin his attack upon the suitors. A third Achaean leader is still at sea, alive, but hindered from returning [nostos]. He felt the change, wondered at it, and knew that the stranger had been a god, so he went straight to where the suitors were sitting. Now when the child of morning, rosy-fingered Dawn, appeared, dear Telemachus rose and dressed himself. She had been nurse to white-armed Nausicaa, and had now lit the fire for her, and brought her supper for her into her own room. 582 Some such noble person? Then I told the rest to go on board at once, lest any of them should taste of the lotus and leave off wanting to get home [nostos], so they took their places and smote the gray sea with their oars. Tell me truly, and what young men did he take with him? Let the suitors do so of their own accord; it will be better for them, [170] for I am not prophesying without due knowledge; everything has happened to resourceful Odysseus as I foretold when the Argives set out for Troy, and he with them. [330] You must be Odysseus of many turns [polutropos], about whose 331 future coming he used to talk to me alwaysthe one with the golden rod, the Argeiphontes [= Hermes] who he always said would come here some day with his ship while on his way home from Troy; so be it then; sheathe your sword and let us go to bed, [335] that we may make friends and learn to trust each other., And I answered, Circe, how can you expect me to be friendly with you when you have just been turning all my men into pigs? NHTSA estimates that in 2017, 91,000 police-reported crashes involved drowsy drivers. [370] They stowed everything carefully away, and Athena set a stone against the door of the cave. 199 Why, just a little while ago you were an old man wearing unseemly clothes, [200] but now you look like [= perfect of eskein] the gods who hold the wide sky., 201 He was answered by Odysseus, the one with many kinds of craft, who addressed him thus: 202 Telemachus, it does not seem right [= perfect of eskein] for you to be amazed at your father who is right here inside [the shelter], 203 for you to be amazed too much or to feel overwhelmed. What is it all about? Zeus daughter, Helen of Argos, would never have yielded herself to a man from a foreign country, [220] if she had known that the warlike sons of Achaeans would come after her and bring her back. The men when they got on shore followed a level road by which the people draw their firewood from the mountains into the town, [105] till presently they met a young woman who had come outside to fetch water, and who was daughter to a Laestrygonian named Antiphates. [70] When they got to the water side the crew took these things and put them on board, with all the meat and drink; but for Odysseus they spread a rug and a linen sheet on deck that he might sleep [75] soundly in the stern of the ship. He probably also doesnt want his car crapped up with ugly bumps and bubbles, and who can blame him? [225] Thus did we converse, and then proud Persephone sent up the spirits of the wives and daughters of all the most famous men. About90people die each day in the US from crashes resulting in the highest death rate among comparison countries.*. This was what he said, and more than half raised a loud shout, and at once left the assembly. Still, people cannot do permanently without sleep, and the gods have appointed us dwellers on earth a time for all things. I met a man just now [260] who said so, but he was a dull character, and had not the patience to hear my story out when I was asking him about an old friend of mine, whether he was still living, or was already dead and in the house of Hds. And I will tell you of all the wicked witchcraft that Circe will try to practice upon you. As for Odysseus, 522 he dissolved [tkesthai] into tears. In 2013, 54 million people worldwide sustained injuries from traffic collisions. Odysseus saw her, and so did the dogs, for they did not bark, but went scared and whining off to the other side of the yards. It is all over now; still, if you look at the straw you can see [215] what the ear was, for I have had trouble enough and to spare. In the meantime Odysseus and the swineherd were about starting for the town, and the swineherd said, [185] Stranger, I suppose you still want to go to town to-day, as my master said you were to do; for my own part I should have liked you to stay here as a station hand, but I must do as my master tells me, or he will scold me later on, and a scolding from ones master is a very serious thing. Standing on the threshold he could see them all quite near, and said to Odysseus, [495] Here they are, let us put on our armor at once.. I far excel every one else in the whole world, of those who still eat bread upon the face of the earth, but I should not like to shoot against the mighty dead, such as Hrakls, or Eurytos of Oikhalia [225] men who could shoot against the gods themselves. [115] There was also Euryalos, son of Naubolos, who was like manslaughtering Ars himself, and was the best looking man among the Phaeacians except Laodamas. [320] Servants never do their work when their masters hand is no longer over them, for Zeus of the wide brows takes half the goodness [aret] out of a man when he makes a slave of him.. [60] Lastly, grant Telemachus and myself a happy issue, in respect of the matter that has brought us in our swift black ship to Pylos.. When they had done throwing the ball straight up into the air they began to dance, and at the same time kept on throwing it backwards and forwards to one another, while all the young men [380] in the ring applauded and made a great stamping with their feet. This will happen to you because you have married Helen, and are [570] Zeus son-in-law.. There is also another matter; [300] if you are indeed my son and my blood runs in your veins, let no one know that Odysseus is within the houseneither Laertes, nor yet the swineherd, nor any of the servants, nor even Penelope herself. For a moment he doubted whether or not to fly at Melanthios and kill him with his staff, or fling him to the ground and beat his brains out; he resolved, however, to endure it and keep himself in check, but the swineherd looked straight at Melanthios and rebuked him, lifting up his hands and praying to the gods as he did so. He did not know whether to flee out of the hall and sit down by the altar of [335] Zeus that was in the outer court, and on which both Laertes and Odysseus had offered up the thigh bones of many an ox, or whether to go straight up to Odysseus and embrace his knees, but in the end he thought it best to embrace Odysseus knees. He went moodily and found the suitors [300] flaying goats and singeing pigs in the outer court. Thus, then, did the hero Telemachus and glorious Peisistratos sleep there in the forecourt, while the son of Atreus lay in an inner room [305] with lovely Helen by his side. [315] They are very fond of one another, but I do not think they will lie there longer than they can help, nor do I think that they will sleep much; there, however, they shall stay till her father has repaid me the sum I gave him for his bitch-eyed daughter, [320] who is fair but not honest.. We soon reached his cave, but he was out shepherding, so we went inside and took stock of all that we could see. [375] Then they all sit round and ask questions, both those who grieve over the kings absence, and those who rejoice at it because they can eat up his property without paying for it. By and by, however, it seemed as though he was to have his return [nostos], [520] safe after all, for the gods backed the wind into its old quarter and they reached home; whereon Agamemnon kissed his native soil, and shed tears of joy at finding himself in his own country. You are insolent and your mind [noos] is cruel, and you think yourself a great man because you live in a little world, and that a bad one. If you leave these flocks unharmed, and think of nothing but getting home [nostos], you may yet after much hardship reach Ithaca; but if you harm them, then I forewarn you of the destruction both [140] of your ship and of your comrades; and even though you may yourself escape, you will return late, in bad plight, after losing all your men.. Use safety glasses, goggles, face shields, etc., where machines or tools may cause flying particles. He made the raft as broad as a skilled shipwright [250] makes the beam of a large vessel, and he filed a deck on top of the ribs, and ran a gunwale all round it. Circe, that great and cunning goddess, sent us a fair wind that blew dead aft and stayed steadily with us keeping our sails all the time well filled; so we did whatever wanted doing to the ships gear [10] and let her go as the wind and helmsman [kubernts] headed her. There I ransacked the town and put the people to the sword. Will you go, then? Choose not to drive while impaired by alcohol or drugs, and help others do the same. [355] Be so kind, he said, as to give me some more, and tell me your name at once. They drove out through the inner gateway and under the echoing gatehouse of the outer court, and fair-haired Menelaos, the son of Atreus, came after them with a golden goblet of wine in his right hand that they might make a drink-offering [150] before they set out. Some evil spirit has possessed you. And I saw Leda the wife of Tyndareus, who bore him two famous sons, [300] Castor [Kastor], breaker of horses, and Pollux [Polydeukes], the mighty boxer. Thus spoke Menelaos, and the heart of Telemachus yearned as he turned his thoughts to his father. [455] Then Circe came up to me and said, Resourceful Odysseus, noble son of Laertes and seed of Zeus, tell your men to leave off crying; I know 458 how much suffering you underwent in the fishy [ikhthuoeis] sea [pntos], and how ill you have fared among cruel savages on the mainland, [460] but that is over now, so stay here, and eat and drink till you are once more as strong and hearty as you were when you left Ithaca; for at present you are weakened both in body and mind; you keep all the time thinking of the hardships you have suffered during your travels, so that you have no more [465] cheerfulness left in you., Thus did she speak and we assented. It allows vehicles to communicate with each other and with the surrounding environment, which could reduce collisions considerably. Then Telemachus got into the chariot, while Peisistratos, leader of men, the son of Nestor, gathered up the reins and took his seat beside him. These figures are likely underestimates given it often is impossible to verify a distraction was present at the time of a crash. I was their sacrificing priest; if you kill me, I shall die without having done anything to deserve it, and shall have got no thanks [kharis] for all the good that I did., [320] Resourceful Odysseus looked sternly at him and answered, If you were their sacrificing priest, you must have prayed many a time that it might be long before my homecoming [nostos], and that you might marry my wife [325] and have children by her. [5] Now the people of Pylos were gathered on the sea shore to offer sacrifice of black bulls to dark-haired Poseidon, lord of the Earthquake. Who, Swineherd, said he, is this stranger that is lately come here? I shall either be always feeble and of no prowess, or I am too young, and have not yet reached my full strength so as to be able to hold my own if any one attacks me. [70] There were footsoldiers and charioteers, and a great din arose. I gave him twelve light cloaks, and as many pieces of tapestry; I also gave him twelve cloaks of single fold, twelve rugs, twelve fair mantles, and an equal number of khitons. It had been made by Ikmalios and had a footstool all in one piece with the seat itself; and it was covered with a thick fleece: on this she [60] now sat, and the white-armed maids came from the womens room to join her. There were plenty of seats in the house, but she had no heart for sitting on any one of them; she could only fling herself on the floor of her own room and cry; whereon all the maids in the house, [720] both old and young, gathered round her and began to cry too, till at last in a transport of sorrow she exclaimed, My dears, the gods have been pleased to try me with more affliction than any other woman of my age and country. May your excellency revere [give aids to] the gods, for we are your suppliants, [270] and Zeus takes all respectable travelers under his protection, for he is the avenger of all suppliants and foreigners in distress., To this he gave me but a pitiless answer, Stranger, said he, you are a fool, or else you know nothing of this country. This bow, then, given him by Iphitos, son of Eurytos, one like the gods, had not been taken with him by Odysseus when he sailed for Troy; [40] he had used it so long as he had been at home, but had left it behind as having been a keepsake from a valued friend. First you go to Pylos and ask radiant Nestor; [285] and then from there to Sparta and to golden-haired Menelaos, the one who was the last of the Achaeans, wearers of bronze tunics, to come back home; if you hear that your father is alive and about to achieve his homecoming [nostos], you can put up with the waste these suitors will make for yet another twelve months. Then Arete told her maids to set a large tripod upon the fire as fast as they could, [435] whereon they set a tripod full of bath water on to a clear fire; they threw on sticks to make it blaze, and the water became hot as the flame played about the belly of the tripod. Meanwhile Eurylokhos had been giving evil counsel to the men, [340] Listen to me, said he, my poor comrades. Take care of my father and mother as at present, and even more so during my absence, but when you see our son growing a beard, then [270] marry whom you will, and leave this your present home. This is what he said and now it is all coming true. For a decade, he was one of the brightest stars in the field of autonomous driving before he disgraced himself by suddenly quitting his job at Waymo and jumping to Uber. I was at first inclined [300] to seize my sword, draw it, and drive it into his vitals, but I reflected that if I did we should all certainly be lost, for we should never be able to shift [305] the stone which the monster had put in front of the door. Then, [530] many dead mens spirits [pskhai] will come to you, and you must tell your men to skin the two sheep that you have just killed, and offer them as a burnt sacrifice with prayers to Hds the powerful and to revered Persephone. He is much the best man and the most persistent wooer, of all those who are paying court to my mother and trying to take Odysseus place. Then he told of cunning Circe and her craft, and how he sailed to the chill house of Hds, to consult the spirit [pskh] of the Theban prophet Teiresias, and how he saw his old comrades in arms, [325] and his mother who bore him and brought him up when he was a child; how he then heard the wondrous singing of the Sirens, and went on to the wandering rocks and terrifying Charybdis and to Scylla, whom no man had ever yet passed in safety; how his men then ate the cattle of the sun-god, [330] and how Zeus therefore struck the ship with his thunderbolts, so that all his men perished together, himself alone being left alive; how at last he reached the Ogygian island and the nymph Kalyps, who kept him there [335] in a cave, and fed him, and wanted him to marry her, in which case she intended making him immortal so that he should never grow old, but she could not persuade him to let her do so; and how after much suffering he had found his way to the Phaeacians, who had treated him as though he had been a god, and sent him [340] back in a ship to his own country after having given him gold, bronze, and raiment in great abundance. Then Amphinomos said, [245] My friends, this plot of ours to murder Telemachus will not succeed; let us go to dinner instead.. [400] When, however, he got within earshot, he began to hear the surf thundering up against the rocks, for the swell still broke against them with a terrific roar. What you say, said he, shows that you come of good family. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. [165] I will put bread, wine, and water on board to save you from starving. My friends, said I, this is not the first time that we have been in danger, and we are in nothing like so bad a case as when the Cyclops [210] shut us up in his cave by forceful violence [bi]; nevertheless, my excellence [aret] and wise counsel [noos] saved us then, and we shall live to look back on all this as well. [290] Still, he shall have plenty of hardship yet before he has done with it., Then he gathered his clouds together, grasped his trident, stirred it round in the sea, and roused the rage of every wind that blows till earth, sea, and sky were hidden in cloud, and night sprang forth out of the sky. I should have killed a great many of them, and you would have rejoiced to see it., Thus did they converse; but the others, when they had finished their work and the feast was ready, left off working [ponos], [385] and took each his proper place on the benches and seats. It was all his doing. How did his crew bring him to Ithaca, and who were they?for assuredly he did not come here by land [60] To this you answered, O swineherd Eumaios, My son, I will tell you what is really true [alths]. When they had done dinner [100] they threw off the veils that covered their heads and began to play at ball, while Nausicaa of the white arms sang for them. 463 Speaking proudly, I will tell you a wording [epos]. Then Circe took me by the hand and bade me be seated away from the others, while she reclined by my side and asked me all about our adventures. [70] He put next to him also a cup of wine to drink from whenever he [= Demodokos] felt in his heart the need to do so. Daring that you are, full of guile, unwearying in deceit [at], [295] can you not drop your tricks and your instinctive falsehood, even now that you are in your own country again? Good luck to you, he said, father stranger, you are very badly off at present, but I hope you will have better fortune [olbos] by and by., To this resourceful Odysseus answered, [125] Amphinomos, you seem to be a man of good understanding, as indeed you may well be, seeing whose son you are. 191 You see, he was saying that he was a guest-friend [xenos] [of Idomeneus] and that they had a relationship of mutual respect. The issue, however, rests with the gods. You gave me thirteen pear trees, ten apple trees, and forty fig trees; you also said you would give me fifty rows of vines; there was wheat planted between each row, and they yield grapes of every kind when the seasons [hrai] of Zeus have been laid heavy upon them., [345] Laertes strength failed him when he heard the convincing signs [smata] which his son had given him. When you have got past the gates and through the outer court, go right across the inner court till you come to [305] my mother. 13 But he [= Odysseus], apart from the others, though he was longing for his homecoming [nostos] and for his wife, 14 was detained by the queenly nymph [numph] Kalyps, who has her own luminous place among all the goddesses [15] who had got him into a large cave and wanted to marry him. Odysseus will return in this self same year; with the end of this moon and the beginning of the next he will be here., May it be even so, answered circumspect Penelope; if your words come true [310] you shall have such gifts and such good will from me that all who see you shall congratulate you; but I know very well how it will be. In 2020, the overall per capita death rateincreased6 percent compared with 2019. I can see him in an island sorrowing bitterly in the house of the nymph Kalyps, who is keeping him prisoner, and he cannot reach his home for he has no ships nor sailors [560] to take him over the sea. The suitors in the covered hall were now in an uproar, [400] and one would turn towards his neighbor, saying, I wish the stranger had gone somewhere else, bad luck to hide, for all the trouble he gives us. [295] Thus then they passed by Krounoi and Khalkis. It seems to me that sorrow [akhos] has overcome his thinking, very much so. Then Telemachus spoke fiercely to Ktesippos, It is a good thing for you, said he, that the stranger turned his head so that [305] you missed him. After they had washed them and got them quite clean, they laid them out by the sea side, where [95] the waves had raised a high beach of shingle, and set about washing themselves and anointing themselves with olive oil. If on the other hand you choose to persist in sponging upon one man, may the gods help me, but Zeus shall reckon with you in full, [380] and when you fall in my fathers house there shall be no man to avenge you., The suitors bit their lips as they heard him, and marveled at the boldness of his speech. Tell me then truly, have I really got back to my own country?, [330] You are always taking something of that sort into your head, replied owl-vision goddess Athena, and that is why I cannot desert you in your afflictions; you are so plausible, shrewd and shifty. You will see the market place with a temple of Poseidon in the middle of it, and paved with large stones bedded in the earth. Agelaos shouted to them and said, My friends, he will soon have to leave off, for Mentor has gone away after having done nothing for him but brag. About half of drivers or passengers who died in crashes in the US werent buckled up. Wanderers in need of food [125] are liars [pseudontai], and they are unwilling to tell true things [althea mthsasthai]; every one who finds his way to the district [dmos] of Ithaca goes to my mistress and tells her falsehoods, whereon she takes them in, makes much of them, and asks them all manner of questions, crying all the time [130] as women will when they have lost their husbands. Still, I should advise you by all means to go and visit Menelaos, who has lately come off a voyage among such distant peoples as no man could ever hope to get back from, [320] when the winds had once carried him so far out of his reckoning; even birds cannot fly the distance in a twelvemonth, so vast and terrifying are the seas that they must cross. Who and whence are youtell me of your town and parents? Therefore let this man do as you have just told him, and take me to the town as soon as I have had a warm by the fire, and the day has got a little heat in it. Take my advice then, and do not go traveling about for long so far from home, nor leave your property with such dangerous people in your house; [315] they will eat up everything you have among them, and you will have been on a fools errand. The man who made that belt, do what he might, would never be able to make another like it. Therefore pass these Sirens by, and stop your mens ears with wax that none of them may hear; but if you like you can listen yourself, [50] for you may get the men to bind you in the swift ship, hands and feet, upright in the step of the mast, and have the ends of the ropes fastened to the mast itself, that you may have the pleasure of listening. Anthony Levandowski was part of the team at Google headed by Lawrence Burns. If he is already dead and in the house of Hds, then, alas! The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) is an independent, nonprofit scientific and educational organization dedicated to reducing deaths, injuries and property damage from motor vehicle crashes through research and evaluation and through education of consumers, policymakers and safety professionals. Manufacturers insist it is hard to make it work accurately, and yet they expect us to believe they can make a car that will drive from LA to New York City and park itself without human intervention? If you want to speed, join a motorsports facility that offers track days. I am losing all heart; tell me, then, for you gods know everything, which of the immortals it is that is hindering me, [470] and tell me also how I may sail the sea so as to have a homecoming [nostos]?, Then, he said, if you would finish your voyage and get home quickly, you must offer sacrifices to Zeus and to the rest of the gods before embarking; [475] for it is decreed that you shall not get back to your friends, and to your own house, till you have returned to the sky-fed stream of Egypt, and offered holy hecatombs to the immortal gods that reign in the sky. Then Athena, daughter of Zeus of the aegis, assumed the form and voice of Mentor, and presently made a covenant of peace between the two contending parties. In return, I will offer you in sacrifice a broad-browed heifer of a year old, unbroken, and never yet brought by man under the yoke. They know nothing about ships, nor oars that are as the wings of a ship. But even so I doubt not that I shall remember it in my dreams., [80] As she spoke, she told Eumaios the noble swineherd to set the bow and the pieces of iron before the suitors, and Eumaios wept as he took them to do as she had bidden him. [415] My mother does indeed sometimes send for a soothsayer and question him, but I give his prophesying no heed. I met a man sent by those who had gone with you to Pylos, and he was the first to tell the news to your mother, [470] but I can say what I saw with my own eyes; I had just got on to the crest of the hill of Hermes above the town when I saw a ship coming into harbor with a number of men in her. In a lengthy interview with Bloomberg News, republished by Autoblog, George Hotz, the serial entrepreneur who founded self-driving startup Comma.ai, has this to say about autonomous cars: Its a scam. Alas! He was the stranger whom they all kept on treating so badly in the hall. [465] You will gain nothing by trying to put me off. I was lying asleep on the top of Circes house, and never thought of coming down again by the great staircase, but fell right off the roof [65] and broke my neck, so my spirit [pskh] went down to the house of Hds. His name was Eurybates, and Odysseus treated him with greater familiarity than he did any of the others, as being the most like-minded with himself., Penelope was moved still more deeply [250] as she heard the indisputable signs [smata] that Odysseus laid before her; and when she had again found relief in tears she said to him, Stranger, I was already disposed to pity you, but henceforth you shall be honored and made welcome in my house. But now let us go to bed, that we may [255] lie down and enjoy the blessed boon of sleep., You shall go to bed as soon as you please, replied circumspect Penelope, now that the gods have sent you home to your own good house and to your country. Then he too went on board and lay down without a word, but the crew took every man his place in order [kosmos] and loosed the hawser from the pierced stone to which it had been bound. Meanwhile the Kikones cried out for help to other Kikones who lived inland. He would have nothing to do with other people, but led the life of an outlaw. Not even a well-found ship with a fair wind could venture on such a distant voyage: nothing that you can say or do shall make me go on board a raft unless you first solemnly swear that you mean me no mischief., [180] Kalyps, shining among divinities, smiled at this and caressed him with her hand: You know a great deal, said she, but you are quite wrong here. As he spoke he bound his belt round him and went to the sties where the young sucking pigs were penned. 328 From her room upstairs, this divinely inspired song of his was understood in her mind by 329 the daughter of Ikarios, the exceptionally intelligent Penelope, [330] and she came down the lofty staircase of her palace. The stranger has already had as large a portion as anyone else; this is well, for it is not right nor reasonable [dikaios] to ill-treat any [295] guest of Telemachus who comes here. Help would come at once, and we should soon make an end of this man and his shooting., [135] This may not be, illustrious Agelaos, answered Melanthios the goatherd, the mouth of the narrow passage is dangerously near the entrance to the outer court. With these words she came down from her upper room, not alone but attended by two of her maidens, and when she, shining among women, reached the suitors she stood by one of the bearing-posts supporting the roof of the hall, [210] holding a veil before her face, and with a staid maid servant on either side of her. Enforcing existing 0.08% blood alcohol concentration (BAC) laws and minimum legal drinking age laws. She took his shape, and went round the town to each one of the crew, telling them [385] to meet at the ship by sundown. 332 But if a man is blameless himself and thinks blameless thoughts, 333 the guest-strangers [xenoi] he has entertained carry his kleos far and wide 334 to all mankind, and many are they who call him worthy [esthlos]., [335] Resourceful Odysseus answered, My Lady, respected wife of Odysseus, son of Laertes, I have foresworn rugs and blankets from the day that I left the snowy ranges of Crete to go on shipboard. Is that so? exclaimed Athena, Then you do indeed want absent Odysseus home again.
