Off to your left, you will see the turnstiles for the train. Walk through that opening in the hallway, before the turnstiles, off to your left is the ticket window. Go to the ticket window and ask for a ticket to Beersheva Central. (Note: If the train is not running for some unknown reason, you will have to take the bus instead. Have someone direct you to the bus stop and take the bus to the Central Bus Station, where you can get a ticket to Tamar like you would at Beersheva.) The train ticket price should be around 32 shekels. You have to change trains once, and they may mention this to you when you buy the ticket. Just tell them you know you have to change trains. Then, proceed to the turnstiles just before the stairs or escalator. You need to put your train ticket through a machine to activate the turnstile.

It will produce thorns and thistles for you, and you will eat the plants of the field. By the sweat of your brow you will eat your bread until you return to the ground, since from it you were taken; for dust you are and to dust you will return.” – Genesis 3:17-19 “Now, Ananda, when a monk or brahman says thus: ‘It seems that there are evil kammas [karmas], there is the result of misconduct,’ I concede that to him. “When he says thus: ‘For I have seen that some person killed living beings, took what is not given, misconducted himself in sexual desires, spoke falsehood, spoke maliciously, spoke harshly, gossiped, was covetous, was ill-willed, and had wrong view.

Fresh Water Resource Development As A Result Of The Red Sea-Dead Sea Conduit: A Case Study of The Central Arava Valley Abstract The World Bank is currently sponsoring a feasibility study to determine the viability of a Red Sea Dead Sea Conveyance [RSDSC] program. This is the latest iteration of a regional water management strategy associated with the rapid decline of the Dead Sea water level that has been discussed for many years. The project aims to convey water from the Red Sea to the Dead Sea via pipeline or tunnel, and within the Dead Sea basin desalinate this sea water in an effort to provide potable water to the riparians (Jordan, Israel and the Palestinian Territories), as well as stabilize the Dead Sea water level.
