They call me mellow yellow meaning full#While running errands that same morning, Leopold Bloom summons a memory of his wife, Molly, thrusting into his mouth a crushed seedcake on the day he proposed to her: “I lay, full lips open, kissed her mouth. “Ulysses” is all about wandering, of course, and about the loneliness that attends it. How many novels encourage such wanderings? Why is “dressinggown,” like “scrotumtightening,” a single retracting word, as if English were steadying itself to transform into German? (A triviality, you might protest, but the trustees of the Joyce estate once sued the editor of a “reader friendly” edition of “Ulysses” that severed it into “dressing gown.”) Is the yellow gown an afterimage of Homer’s Dawn, flinging off her golden robe? What to make of that peculiar word “ungirdled”? The cords of the ungirdled gown draw my mind to the ungirdled tunics of the warriors in the Iliad to Shakespeare’s fairy Puck, who boasts that he can “put a girdle round about the earth / in forty minutes” to the plump, ungirdled Romans in “The Last Days of Pompeii,” by the Victorian novelist Edward Bulwer-Lytton. The passage is marked by Buck’s rhetorical bombast-“stately,” “bearing a bowl”-but deflated by the gently ironizing description of him as “plump.” It was on the back of this observation that the critic Leo Bersani claimed that “Ulysses” brought to modern literature its most refined technique: a narrative perspective that was “at once seduced” by its characters’ distinctive thoughts and “coolly observant of their person.”įrom these two sentences, a whole history of literature beckons-a sudden blooming of forms and genres, authors and periods, languages and nations. Grasping whose point of view these sentences issue from is trickier, but key to the novel’s technical ambitions. The tower, an obsolete British defense fortress, overlooks the “snotgreen,” “scrotumtightening” Irish Sea-“a great sweet mother,” Buck Mulligan intones, playing the roles of both priest and jester before an unamused Stephen Dedalus, who is grieving the death of his mother. It is eight in the morning at the Martello tower in Sandycove. A yellow dressinggown, ungirdled, was sustained gently behind him on the mild morning air. Stately, plump Buck Mulligan came from the stairhead, bearing a bowl of lather on which a mirror and razor lay crossed. Sometimes it greets me with a sentence whose origin and significance I know with the same certainty that I know my name. Waking up, sleepy and displeased, I roll over to see what it has been up to during the night. My relationship with UlyssesReader is intense and, I suspect, typical. Then it begins again, arranging, in its mechanical way, the tale of a young Dubliner named Stephen Dedalus and an older one named Leopold Bloom, brought together in a hospital, a brothel, a cabmen’s shelter, and, finally, the kitchen of Bloom’s home-on June 16, 1904, “an unusually fatiguing day, a chapter of accidents.” When UlyssesReader reaches the end, it presents the novel’s historic signature, “Trieste-Zurich-Paris 1914-1921,” intact, like a bone fished out of the throat. Characters are dismembered into bellies, breasts, and bottoms. The novel’s eighteen episodes, each contrived according to an elaborate scheme of correspondences-Homeric parallels, hours of the day, organs of the body-are torn asunder. For nine years, UlyssesReader has consumed the novel’s inner parts with relish, only to spit them out at a rate of one tweet every ten minutes. ![]() The Twitter account UlyssesReader is what programmers call a “corpus-fed bot.” The corpus on which it feeds is James Joyce’s modernist epic, “ Ulysses,” which was published a hundred years ago this month.

Infohub - When checked, shows their location on the map Yellow is used for your friends, and green for all others. Resident - When checked, will show logged in users as dots on the map. Afterwards you can set it to another location you own or have permission to set as your home. When you are new, this is the infohub you first arrived at after orientation. Go Home - This button will teleport you to your home location. Terrain Tab - This tab only shows the terrain, without objects. The maps are updated approximately daily, so items will not show instantly. Objects Tab - This tab will show objects placed on the land as well as the underlying terrain. In the 3D view a 'Beacon' (vertical light column) will show the direction to the marker until you get within a few meters of it. Clicking a location on the map will place a temporary marker. If you are off the part of the map that is shown, an arrow will indicate your direction. Your current location is shown by a symbol. Map region names are shown on the bottom left corner of each region. The window can be resized using the bottom right corner tab, and the map view can be shifted with click-drag within the map window. It can be accessed via the bottom toolbar Map button, via top menu View > World Map item, or by pressing Ctrl- M.

Click for larger version 'World Map' Floating Window That's not a great challenge, since most people travel everywhere by teleport anyway. The only way to travel across void regions is by teleport. There is no server hosting that part of the map, so no way to show you whats there (which is nothing). You cannot travel through the void regions in between actual map regions. The parts that are not are called Void regions. Void Regions - Not every spot on the map is occupied by a map region. When it's one or a small number of regions separated by void regions from anyone else, it also also known as a 'private island'. An estate can be any number of regions - 1 to hundreds. The rest are managed by the "Estate Owners" who bought them. If you are where you can see more than one map region in the 3D view, you are getting info delivered by more than one server so it appears to be a seamless 3D environment.Ībout 5000 of the regions are directly managed by Linden Lab, Those are referred to as the "Mainland", and are grouped mostly into 7 large continents, and two small ones. The Main Grid (Agni) - Named after the Hindu god of fire, the Main Grid lays out all the map regions on one big map, so that regions that are side by side you can see across and travel between. Often people call regions "Sims", after the program that runs them, but this is not strictly correct. SECOND LIFE SERAPHIM SIMULATORMap region is the data, Simulator is the program that runs it, server is the hardware that holds both and talks to you. Each one has to be hosted on a server running copies of the Simulator program (one simulator per region, 4 or more sims per server, 8000 or so servers). There are about 29,000 regions in total currently. Map regions are all 256x256 meters in size horizontally by 4096 meters vertical (the build limit, you can fly higher, but not place objects above that).

Among these plicae, a medial patellar plica (MPP) has been reported in many healthy knees, and it is asymptomatic in most cases. The presence of plicae at all these anatomical locations is an anatomical variant and not considered pathological. They are classified according to their corresponding anatomical site, and are therefore known as suprapatellar, infrapatellar, medial, and lateral patella plicae. Synovial plicae in the knee joint are remnants of divisions between the compartments that are present in the knee during embryological development. Surgeons should be mindful that acquired plica-induced notches in the articular surface of the medial femoral condyle can present in patients with MPP syndrome. We concluded that this abnormal notch had developed gradually in the MPP without cartilage damage. However, during arthroscopic surgery, we found that the cartilage of the notch, which was located beneath the MPP, was completely intact. We considered that the impinged hypertrophic plica between the anterior medial femoral condyle and the medial articular facet of the patella resulted in cartilage damage on the articular surface of the medial femoral condyle. Preoperative magnetic resonance imaging in a 17-year-old male patient with MPP syndrome showed a hypertrophic MPP along with an abnormal notch in the articular surface of the medial femoral condyle. In patients with MPP syndrome, cartilage damage may occur depending on the shape of the MPP and the duration of the impingement. An inflamed and thickened medial patellar plica (MPP) caused by repeated mechanical irritation from trauma or overuse leads to impingement between the anterior medial femoral condyle and the medial articular facet of the patella and produces pain or clicking, which is known as MPP syndrome. ![]() ![]() ![]() IWHBYD Skull Description: "Did they really just say that?" IWHBYD Skull Effect: Rare combat dialogue becomes more common. You'll find the IWHBYD skull on top of a platform in the middle of the roof. This is of course a lot faster if you've already unlocked the Wasp or stolen a Banshee. Then, while facing the top rim of The Tower, you can use the Grappleshot again to get a grasp on the top. Once you're as high as you can get, you'll need to shoot the Grappleshot at an angle to scale The Tower and fling the Chief up. Starting from northeast of the base, near the retracted bridge connecting this area to the island in the north, use your Grappleshot to climb the large support struts. Using the Grappleshot, scale the side using the support beams as ledges. This is much easier if you've upgraded the Grappleshot twice to unlock the 40% shorter cooldown. To do it, you're going to need to climb to the top of the Tower. The Weapon will tell you the signal is coming from the tower, so it's time to fight our way in.īefore you go inside, you'll have the opportunity to claim the IWHBYD skull. ![]() Once you get to the waypoint, keep driving to the tower that should be straight ahead of you. Chief doesn't have to kill everyone he sees, after all. Don't worry about stopping to take them out, you can generally drive past them on your way to the destination. On the way, you may run across small groups of Banished. You can also open up your map and set a waypoint to the source of the signal to make it easier to find when you're cruising around. When you're ready to proceed with the main path, it's time to head to that UNSC signal.īack at your FOB, You can summon a Mongoose to get to your destination much faster. #Spartan core in the tower upgradeYou can rescue UNSC soldiers, go to the Ransom Keep, and search for Spartan Cores that you can use to upgrade Chief. Thanks to your FOB, certain icons have appeared on your map, indicating side missions and collectibles to go get. This is where things start to open up on Zeta Halo. This audio log is not counted towards the mission total. ![]() When you head to it, watch out for the one Jackal hiding behind the largest crate in the back right of the platform.įrom the terminal, turn left and you'll see a UNSC audio log leaning up against a pile of sandbags near the edge of the platform. From here, you should be able to take out most of the Grunts, clearing the FOB platform. Once that's done, the Grunts are sure to notice you've made some noise, so hop out of the turret and hide behind the rocks in this area for cover. You can quickly hop into it to take out two Brutes that are patrolling the FOB. Head down the hill towards the FOB, and you should see a turret. You won't have much cover so it's easy to get killed. You can go to FOB Golf or FOB Foxtrot first. You'll also gain more support from random Marines at areas should you continue taking back the ring. Doing so will give you the ability to call in all kinds of support as you increase your Valor, a point system that marks how much territory the UNSC has on the ring. Legendary Strategy Tip: You don't have to Establish a Forward Operating Base, but it's highly recommended, and an optional objective for this mission. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() #Android timetracker app androidStarts back up after rebooting or updating your smartphone.
