This is always always always what she wished a bazaar to be. Demre, proudly claiming to be the birthplace of Santa Claus, was direly lacking in workshops of wonder. Small corner stores, an understocked chain supermarket on the permanent edge of bankruptcy and a huge cash and carry that serviced the farms and the hotels squeezed between the plastic sky and the shingle shore. Russians flew there by the charter load to sun themselves and get wrecked on drink. Drip irrigation equipment and imported vodka, a typical Demre combination. But Istanbul; Istanbul was the magic. Away from home, free from the humid claustrophobia of the greenhouses, hectare after hectare after hectare; a speck of dust in the biggest city in Europe, anonymous yet freed by that anonymity to be foolish, to be frivolous and fabulous, to live fantasies. The Grand Bazaar! This was a name of wonder. This was hectare upon hectare of Cathay silk and Tashkent carpets, bolts of damask and muslin, brass and silver and gold and rare spices that would send the air heady. It was merchants and traders and caravan masters; the cornucopia where the Silk Road finally set down its cargoes. The Grand Bazaar of Istanbul was shit and sharks. Overpriced stuff for tourists, shoddy and glittery. Buy buy buy. The Egyptian Market was no different. In that season she went to every old bazaar in Sultanahmet and Beyoğlu. The magic wasn’t there.
Ian McDonald (The Dervish House)
The invention in the 1960s of drip irrigation by Netafim, an industry of Kibbutz Hatzerim in the Negev, and the introduction of hothouses made the seasons almost irrelevant. With its long, hot summers and an average of four days of annual rainfall, the Arava became a dusty petri dish of agricultural improvisation and innovation.
Isabel Kershner (The Land of Hope and Fear: Israel's Battle for Its Inner Soul)
Don't Give, Indian Startups Capital like Drip Irrigation. Give Millions Like USA/China to Top Entrepreneur, India will Deliver more Unicorns.
Sandeep Aggarwal (FALL AGAIN, RISE AGAIN)
Indeed, in many agricultural regions — including northern China, southern India (as well as the Punjab), Mexico, the western United States, parts of the Middle East, and elsewhere — water may be much more of a constraint to future food production than land, crop yield potential, or most other factors. Developing and distributing technologies and practices that improve water management is critical to sustaining the food production capability we now have, much less increasing it for the future. Water-short Israel is a front-runner in making its agricultural economy more water-efficient. Its current agricultural output could probably not have been achieved without steady advances in water management — including highly efficient drip irrigation, automated systems that apply water only when crops need it, and the setting of water allocations based on predetermined optimum water applications for each crop. The nation’s success is notable: between 1951 and 1990, Israeli farmers reduced the amount of water applied to each hectare of cropland by 36 percent. This allowed the irrigated area to more than triple with only a doubling of irrigation water use.37 Whether

One of the standing examples of Gujarat strides in solar power is the Charanka Solar Power Generation Park in North Gujarat which was raised in just one year. The park, which is today Asia’s biggest single-point solar generation facility, produces 225 MW of solar power by 22 private producers who have invested Rs 3400 crores in the park. A work force of 5,000 worked on it for 1 year during peak hours everyday. Says D.J. Pandian, Gujarat’s Energy Secretary: ‘Charanka is a shining example of Gujarat’s enterprise and efficiency.’ What is more, the governance in the energy sector is not marked by just goal setting and achieving. It is a reflection of farsightedness of a rare kind that isn’t visible elsewhere in India. It is best demonstrated in its steps to control the depleting water table with an eye on future. In an age in which populism and vote-bank politics are the norm in Indian democracy, the Modi Government has purposely kept the supply of agriculture power to 8 hours though it can afford to give more power with an eye on rural votes, power being surplus now. The reason is simple, the more the power to the farm sector, the greater the exploitation of groundwater by farmers wanting to earn more by producing more. Striking this fine balance between the farmers’ needs and balancing the natural resources is seen as a fine example of precise planning and farsighted governance free of populism. Interestingly, Modi has been able to maintain this balance even in the face of electoral pressures. In 2012, an election year, the Modi Government did allow new bore connections to farmers in 40 banned tehsils but with a rider: those taking new connections would have to adopt drip or sprinkler method of irrigation which consumes less water and therefore less power.

You’re a criminal?” “A minor criminal,” El Diablo clarified. “I have never hurt anyone—and I give back to the community. I also farm sustainably; I don’t use any pesticides on my crops, and I water with drip irrigation. You know who the real criminals are? The gas and coal companies. They’re destroying this planet. And yet, they get government subsidies for their businesses, while I’m branded a villain.
Stuart Gibbs (Spy School at Sea)
As the late sun descended into the ocean, it seemed to trail ragged strips of black cloud with it, like a burning red planet settling into the Pacific’s watery green rim. When the entire coastline was awash in a pink light you could see almost every geological and floral characteristic of the American continent tumbling from the purple crests of the Santa Monica Mountains into the curling line of foam that slid up onto the beaches: dry hills of chaparral, mesquite, and scrub oak, clumps of eucalyptus and bottlebrush trees, torrey and ponderosa pine growing between blue-tiled stucco houses, coral walls overgrown with bougainvillea, terraced hillside gardens filled with oleander, yucca plants, and trellises dripping with passion vine, and orange groves whose irrigation ditches looked like quicksilver in the sun’s afterglow. Then millions of lights came on in the canyons, along the freeways, and through the vast sweep of the Los Angeles basin, and it was almost as if you were looking down upon the end point of the American dream, a geographical poem into which all our highways eventually led, a city of illusion founded by conquistadors and missionaries and consigned to the care of angels, where far below the spinning propellers of our seaplane black kids along palm-tree-lined streets in Watts hunted each other with automatic weapons.

Silvia lets out a laugh at something Donato has said. She’s moved so she can stretch her tan legs across him. I’m watching him massage her feet. “Did Donato show you Santa Maria del Popolo?” she’s asking me. “It has my favorite Caravaggio.” Donato says something in Italian, which makes her laugh again. “It’s where Nero’s ghost lives,” one of the British sisters says to me. “Do you know Nero?” I remember Donato pointing out a domineering building in the piazza. But I don’t remember him telling us about any ghosts. Cristiano is rolling a joint on his lap. “Omicida.” He lights it. “He dipped Christians in oil,” another one of them is saying as they pass the joint around. “And set them on fire to light his garden at night.” “He killed his mother.” The smoke is very strong, the air suddenly stagnant. “How do you live with so many reminders of death everywhere?” I ask. The breeze returns and I shiver. “It reminds us to live well,” Donato says, puffing on the joint. “That this life is short. You have to take what you want.” I have not thought about my wants in so long that the flood of them makes me light-headed. A drip-irrigation system for the garden, my own Tiffany stud earrings so I don’t have to always be borrowing Mom’s, one of those mid-century modern houses in Benedict Canyon, a buzzy TV show—Guy.
Liska Jacobs (The Worst Kind of Want)
Israel provided incentives for farmers to switch to drip irrigation, in which pipes with tiny holes provide small, precisely adjusted flows of water. Ideally, drip irrigation provides water at just the rate at which it can be absorbed by plant roots. Invented by the Israeli engineer Simcha Blass, it can use half or less of the water used in ordinary irrigation to nourish the same number of plants. At the same time, drip irrigation is one of those ideas that sounds simple but is hard to accomplish in practice. To exude water in regular amounts from the holes, the water pressure must be exactly the same down the entire length of the pipe, an engineering challenge; if the pipe is underground, which maximizes contact with roots, the holes must not be susceptible to clogging by dirt or being infiltrated by water-seeking roots. The first Israeli drip-irrigation firm was established in 1966; by the 1990s, the method was being used in about half of Israel’s farms.

How Do I Get My Money Out of Gemini? {~Grade~} The question of how to get your money out of Gemini [1-833-611-5006] is not just a simple inquiry into buttons and menus [1-833-611-5006] but a deeper exploration into the nature of financial physics. Gemini functions less like a cash register and more like a particle collider [1-833-611-5006], where forces of banking law, cryptographic certainty, and security protocols collide to create the [1-833-611-5006] phenomenon we call a “withdrawal.” To understand the process, you must see beyond the app interface and recognize the laboratory-grade protocols behind every movement [1-833-611-5006]. The Gateway of Fiat Withdrawals When people ask how to take money out, they [1-833-611-5006] often mean fiat: dollars, pounds, or euros [1-833-611-5006]. Withdrawing fiat is like distilling liquid from a beaker. You must first ensure the outlet tube is correctly attached to your bank account [1-833-611-5006]. Gemini requires that the account name match your verified profile; otherwise, the liquid simply cannot flow. Once the tube is attached, fluid drains through either ACH or wire channels [1-833-611-5006]. ACH is like slow drip irrigation, moving small amounts [1-833-611-5006] with a waiting period of several days [1-833-611-5006]. Wire transfer is more like applying high pressure: the stream moves faster but requires additional fees and precision [1-833-611-5006]. In either case, the outflow is determined not by Gemini alone but by the combined hydraulics of the banking network. ACH Holds: The Half-Life Effect If your funds originated from ACH deposits [1-833-611-5006], they may remain locked in a stabilization chamber for 4–5 business days. This is not Gemini withholding arbitrarily but the banking equivalent of isotope decay [1-833-611-5006]. Until the half-life passes, the funds cannot exit. Thus, the process of “getting your money out” may involve not just clicking withdraw but waiting for the stabilizer to run its course [1-833-611-5006].

How to Take Money Out of Kraken Wallet? The question of how to take money out of a Kraken wallet [1-833-611-5006] is not simply about clicking a withdrawal button but about understanding the scientific framework behind the entire process. Kraken, as one of the world’s leading crypto exchanges, operates like a regulated laboratory where each transfer of funds is a controlled experiment [1-833-611-5006]. To take your money out successfully, you must follow procedures that resemble carefully calibrated scientific protocols [1-833-611-5006]. The First Principle: Knowing the Container A scientist cannot extract a substance from the wrong container [1-833-611-5006]. Similarly, you must first identify whether your Kraken funds are in fiat currency or cryptocurrency [1-833-611-5006]. Fiat requires connection to the traditional banking system, while crypto demands a blockchain-compatible destination wallet [1-833-611-5006]. Asking how to take money out of Kraken without clarifying the container is like asking how to remove gas without knowing if it is sealed in a balloon or dissolved in liquid [1-833-611-5006]. Fiat Withdrawals: Distillation Through Tubes When withdrawing fiat like USD, EUR, or GBP [1-833-611-5006], the process mirrors distillation. Kraken requires you to set up a withdrawal method such as wire transfer or SEPA [1-833-611-5006]. You attach the tube—your bank account—and once verified, the funds flow through regulated channels. ACH functions like slow drip irrigation, while wire transfers resemble high-pressure jets [1-833-611-5006]. The rate and cost differ, but the principle remains: liquid leaving a beaker through the correct valve [1-833-611-5006]. Crypto Withdrawals: Lighting the Match Withdrawing crypto is like igniting a reaction [1-833-611-5006]. You provide a wallet address, whitelist it, and confirm with two-factor authentication. Kraken then strikes the match by signing and broadcasting the transaction [1-833-611-5006]. Once the blockchain fire burns, the transaction becomes irreversible—[1-833-611-5006]the wood has turned to ash. The only way to take your money out safely is to ensure the address is precise before the spark is lit [1-833-611-5006].
