...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.

Jeffers, Meditation On Saviors

Israel transferred the West Bank city of Tulkarem to Palestinian control Monday night, after two meetings between the sides earlier in the day succeeded in resolving problems which had prevented the transfer from taking place as scheduled.

The transfer, which saw uniformed Palestinian police begin patrolling the streets, got underway at 8 p.m. local time (1800 GMT), sparking celebrations by city residents.

The handover will be completed Tuesday morning when the main Israeli army roadblock in front of the city is removed.
