...But of these sophisms and elenchs of merchandise I skill not...
Milton, Areopagitica

Except he had found the
standing sea-rock that even this last
Temptation breaks on; quieter than death but lovelier; peace
that quiets the desire even of praising it.

Okinawa

Typhoon Tokage lashed the Okinawa island chain with heavy rain and high winds yesterday, injuring at least six people as it headed north to threaten Japan's main islands with the second typhoon in less than two weeks.

Generating winds of up to 173kph, Tokage - "lizard" in Japanese - was expected to hit Kyushu, Japan's southernmost main island, today to become the record 10th typhoon to make landfall in Japan this year.
