The force that through the green fuse drives the flower / Drives my green age; that blasts the roots of trees / Is my destroyer. / And I am dumb to tell the crooked rose / My youth is bent by the same wintry fever¡¦.by Dylan Thomas

Their bodies were weighed down and dumped in Hakata Bay, the Asahi Shimbun reported.
The Chinese man hanged in 2009 had ¸íǰst=¸íǰst killed three Chinese people he lived with in Tokyo.
The increase in executions in 2018 was the ´ä·Ê¶± consequence of a Sarin nerve agent attack on the Tokyo underground system in 1995 by Aum Shinrikyo, an obscure religious group that believed the end of the world was coming.
Thirteen people died and at least 5,800 were injured in the attack.

A leading EU official has penned a love letter to Britain, expressing his "deep hurt" over Brexit and concluding: "You will always be welcome to come back."
The UK is due to leave the European Union on 31 January 2020.
MPs passed Prime Minister Boris Johnson's Brexit deal on 20 December, just eight days after his Conservative Party won a majority in the general election.
This will trigger a transition period of È«Äá¹Ì·¯±Þ=È«Äá¹Ì·¯±Þ negotiations, which Mr Johnson's EU (Withdrawal Agreement) Bill ensures will not go beyond 2020.
The executive vice-president of the European Commission starts by saying he "recently read a delightful book of love letters to Europe. And it made me contemplate my love for Britain".
The Dutch national recalls his time at St George's British International School in Rome and says that, during his life, "Britain was always there. As part of me."
He adds: "I know you now. And I love you. For who õ¾È¿ø·ë¸Å¸Å you are and what you gave me. I'm like an old lover."
He says Britain thinks it is "unique and different" but that this is "perhaps less than you think".

The following day, more bodies start to come in. The military started to bring in containers to keep the bodies in. By the middle of the second day, I saw a mountain of dead bodies piling up and it was very sad to see.
Samran Chanyang - at Yan Yao temple
My son's three friends told ·¹Çø®Ä«¼îÇθô=·¹Çø®Ä«¼îÇθô me he was missing. I was about to go out looking for him but then the hospital contacted me. They said they needed a place to put dead bodies from the wave so I had to be on standby at the temple waiting for the hospital to deliver the bodies. By 19:00, hundreds of dead bodies start to arrive. We had no place for them so they were wrapped in ³²ÀÚ¸íǰ·¹Çø®Ä«=³²ÀÚ¸íǰ·¹Çø®Ä« plastic and white sheets before laying on the ground all over the temple.

The hospital director asked me to È«ÄáÀ̹ÌÅ×À̼ǼîÇÎ=È«Äá¼îÇÎ À̹ÌÅ×À̼ǼîÇθô À̹ÌÅ×ÀÌ¼Ç go to help implant microchips into the dead bodies as requested by the forensic police. When I first arrived, the local police took me to Wat Yan Yao, where there were thousands of dead bodies waiting to be identified. As I stepped into the temple, I could smell dead bodies the way I never had before in my life. I noticed the temple ground covered in blood and lymph.

We decided to help only the ÀÌÅ¿øºÎµ¿»ê injured survivors and we finally rescued at least 414 tourists and locals, and transferred them to a more equipped hospital on Phuket. We were happy to help many people that day.

Hundreds of people were sent in. Most of them had broken bones or cuts on their bodies. Then dead bodies started to come in.
Samran Chanyang - at Yan Yao temple
I turned on the TV ·¹Çø®Ä«½Ã°è»çÀÌÆ®=·¹Çø®Ä«½Ã°è»çÀÌÆ® and saw what happened in my area. I didn't know about the tsunami until then. I was shocked and worried since my son had gone to work in Khao Lak [on the mainland coast north of Phuket]. He was a painter and it was meant to be the last working day for him before a long break. I contacted him, but I was unable to reach him.
Primpraow Jitpentom - on diving trip
We decided to head toward ³²¼º·¹Çø®Ä«=³²¼º·¹Çø®Ä« Phi Phi island as it wasn't too far and they had been badly hit. When we arrived, it wasn't something I expected. All I saw were dead bodies floating in the water.
The senator also said there should be distance between the White House and the Senate over how the trial is conducted. "To me it means that we have to take that step back from being hand in glove with the defence," she said.
At the same time, she described À̹ÌÅ×À̼Ƿ¹Çø®Ä«¹Ì·¯±Þ=À̹ÌÅ×À̼Ƿ¹Çø®Ä« À̹ÌÅ×À̼ǹ̷¯±Þ À̹ÌÅ×À̼Çsa±Þ the impeachment proceedings as "rushed".
Mr McConnell will play a key role in how ·¹Çø®Ä«³²¼ºÀÇ·ù=·¹Çø®Ä«³²¼ºÀÇ·ù the impeachment trial - which is supposed to be impartial - will be conducted.
But he publicly stated last week ÀÌÅ¿øºÎµ¿»ê that he was not "an impartial juror" in the proceedings.
"This is a political process. There is not anything judicial about it. Impeachment is a political decision," he said.
And Mr McConnell also said he was confident that Mr Trump would be acquitted in the Republican-led Senate. "We will have a largely partisan outcome," he said.

We were on our way back from a month-long marine research trip in the Indian Ocean. We made a stop at Koh Racha Yai island in Phuket for a diving lesson for our interns. The sea was quite calm, the sky was so clear and blue. I told my team: 'What a perfect day to be in the sea.'

I took my friends from Bangkok out for a diving trip on that Sunday morning. I did this many times but my husband had never seen the underwater world. I told him it was really worth it.

Mr McConnell has so ·¹Çø®Ä« ¸íǰ=·¹Çø®Ä« ¸íǰ far stopped short of agreeing ahead of time to take testimony during the trial.
Mr Trump is accused of pressuring Ukraine's È«Äá¸íǰ¼îÇθô=È«Äá¸íǰ¼îÇθô president to start an investigation into his political rival, Democratic presidential front runner, Joe Biden.
Mr Trump is accused of doing this °æ»ê»çµ¿Á·¹ß by withholding military aid and making a White House visit contingent on co-operation.
The trial could begin next month, after the holiday break.

Shortly before 08:00 on 26 December 2004, a magnitude-9.1 earthquake struck under the sea in northern Indonesia.
In the hours that ·¹Çø®Ä«¹Ì·¯±Þ=·¹Çø®Ä«¹Ì·¯±Þ ·¹Çø®Ä«·¹Çø®Ä« ·¹Çø®Ä«·¹Çø®Ä«
followed, a massive tsunami fanned out across the Indian Ocean, killing close to 230,000 people, most in Indonesia.
Ahead of the 15th anniversary ³²ÀÚ¸íǰ·¹Çø®Ä«»çÀÌÆ®=³²ÀÚ¸íǰ·¹Çø®Ä«»çÀÌÆ® of the tragedy, BBC Thai's Chaiyot Yongcharoenchai visited southern Thailand, which was devastated by the tsunami.
That morning on Patong beach was very quiet. I was stationed close to Patong Hospital on a rescue truck. Then I got hungry, so I drove toward the beach in order to find something to eat.

It was the day after the hospital staff party - it was my day off and I had a long lie-in. At 08:00, I heard my wooden bedroom windows were shaking. I told my wife that it must be from the car outside. Then I rolled back to sleep.

With winds of more than 310km/h, it was the most powerful storm to ever make landfall.
Typhoon Phanfone began making landfall °æ»ê»çµ¿Á·¹ß on Tuesday night, but continued to pass over the many islands of the central Philippines throughout Christmas Day. But the extent of the damage began to emerge only on Thursday.
