As California scrambles for ways to cope with its crippling drought and the mandatory water restrictions imposed last month by G

ov. Jerry Brown, an array of ideas that were long dismissed as too controversial, expensive or unpleasant are getting a second look. One is to conserve more water; another is to turn nearby and abundant sources of water, like the Pacific Ocean, into drinking water through desalination.
Yet another is to recycle the water Californians have already used. And therein lies a marketing challenge that can be even greater than the technological one

May Be Hard to Swallow,”
John Schwartz

Why did the Europeans trade with Asia?
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

B or C

Explanation:

B: During the period 1500-1800 Asian commodities flooded into the West. As well as spices and tea, they included silks, cottons, porcelains and other luxury goods. Since few European products could be successfully sold in bulk in Asian markets, these imports were paid for with silver. The resulting currency drain encouraged Europeans to imitate the goods they so admired. In Asia, there was no comparable mass importation of western goods. However, there was a great fascination with European scientific and artistic technologies. These influenced local lifestyles and inspired Asian scholars, artists and craftsmen.

The East occupied an important place in the western imagination. The reverse was also true. European objects and artifacts, sometimes reworked to suit Asian lifestyles, created a corresponding vision of a mysterious and exotic West.

C:Spice trade, the cultivation, preparation, transport, and merchandising of spices and herbs, an enterprise of ancient origins and great cultural and economic significance.Seasonings such as cinnamon, cassia, cardamom, ginger, and turmeric were important items of commerce in the earliest evolution of trade. Cinnamon and cassia found their way to the Middle East at least 4,000 years ago. From time immemorial, southern Arabia (Arabia Felix of antiquity) had been a trading centre for frankincense, myrrh, and other fragrant resins and gums. Arab traders artfully withheld the true sources of the spices they sold. To satisfy the curious, to protect their market, and to discourage competitors, they spread fantastic tales to the effect that cassia grew in shallow lakes guarded by winged animals and that cinnamon grew in deep glens infested with poisonous snakes. Pliny the Elder (AD 23–79) ridiculed the stories and boldly declared, “All these tales…have been evidently invented for the purpose of enhancing the price of these commodities.”

solong [7]

Answer:

National service provider (NSP)

Regional service provider (RSP)

Internet service provider (ISP)

Explanation:

National service providers (NSP)  are companies that own the internet backbone infrastructure which other second party internet service providers can link to. Examples of NSPs are Orange, Sprint,  AT&T etc.  

It typically provides fibre optic cables and core routers which the ISPs link to in order to provide internet exchange for the customers.

Regional service provider (RSP)  are basically ISPs operating within a region. Unlike ISPs, they cover only defined regions. Examples are New England's NEARNet which provides internet access for residents of New England and the San Francisco Bay area BARNet for San Francisco Bay resident.

Internet service provider (ISP) are the direct link to the customers. Many NSPs also act as ISPs by using routers that can transfer network from the backbone network exchange to the receiving equipment of the end users such as mobile phones, computers etc. Examples of ISPs are AT&T, Comcast and Verizon.
