    Blindspot Muppet Analysis

    • 1230 Words
    • 5 Pages

    Last week I watched Blindspot on NBC and The Muppets on ABC to see if the new shows were worth all the hype. For those who don’t want to read the post, I thought that Blindspot was intriguing, though not my favorite show, and I was completely unimpressed with The Muppets. However, one episode, especially the pilot, should not make or break a show, so this week I gave them both a second chance. While my overall opinion of Blindspot didn’t change all that much, my view of The Muppets rose slightly.…

    Indian Ocean Trade

    • 1317 Words
    • 6 Pages

    With trade confined to the Indian Ocean and the western interior of Africa, inhabitants of the eastern coast received attention from Europe because it enabled Europeans to access the goods of distant lands with relative ease. The coast is referenced in relation to trade as early as 100 AD, in a Greek handbook meant to aid Greek traders through the market-towns of the region, known as The Periplus of the Erythraean Sea. Although largely constituted of mixed farming communities, the market-towns which are discussed in The Periplus of the Erythraean Sea also dealt with the exchange of ivory, tortoise shell, and coconut oil for iron tools and weapons between themselves and that of Arabia. The market-towns of 100 A.D. were later transformed by the addition of Shi'ite refuges to the northern half of the coast, who brought with them the Islamic…
