In other words, the medianhousehold income decreased for households and individuals at the high school drop-outs andgraduate, some-college, and an Associates degree level. Income did, however, increase for thosewith a Bachelor's degree or more. The following table shows the median household income

according to the educational attainment of the householder. All data is in 2003 dollars and onlyapplies to householders whose householder is aged twenty-five or older. The highest and lowestpoints of the median household income are presented in bold face.

Current Event: Saudi Arabia

The Mission Celebration

Do celebrations reflect physical or cultural geography?Carnival or Mardi Gras

Followers of the Roman Catholic religion in Italy started the tradition of

holding a wild costume festival right before the first day of Lent. Because

Catholics are not supposed to eat meat during Lent, they called their

festival, carnevale which meansto put away the meat.As time passed,

carnivals in Italy became quite famous; and in fact the practice spread to

France, Spain, and all the Catholic countries in Europe. Then as the French,

Spanish, and Portuguese began to take control of the Americas and other

parts of the world, they brought with them their tradition of celebrating

carnival.

Penance: Describe Rodrigos Penitence.

Why? How Long? Was he forgiven? Who forgives? What had Rodrigo done to the Guarani?

Why did Rodrigo cry and laugh at the top of the falls?

What is Penance?

2. a penitential discipline imposed by church authority.

3. a sacrament, as in the Roman Catholic Church, consisting in a confession of sin, made with

sorrow and with the intention of amendment, followed by the forgiveness of the sin.

Rodrigo accepted as a novice Jesuit priest.

SMALL POX IN THE AMERICAS

Using an estimate of approximately 30 million people (native Americans) in 1492 (including

13/17

Plantation Agriculture Requiring Cheap Labor

Sugar -- Around the eighth century A.D., Arab traders introduced sugar from

South Asia to the Mediterranean, Mesopotamia, Egypt, North Africa, and Spain. It was

among the early crops brought to the Americas by the Spanish from their fields in the

Canary Islands, and the Portuguese from their fields in the Madeira Island.

Coffee -- From Ethiopia, coffee was said to have spread to Egypt and Yemen. The

earliest credible evidence of either coffee drinking or knowledge of the coffee tree appears

in the middle of the fifteenth century, in the Sufi monasteries ofYemen. By the 16th

century, it had reached the rest of the Middle East, Persia, Turkey, and northern Africa.

Coffee then spread to Balkans, Italy, and to the rest of Europe, to Indonesia, and to the

Americas.

BananaSoutheast Asian farmers first domesticated bananas.

Pirates and Rum --

Caribbean captains took advantage of a cheaper and more readily available source of

liquid sold by local sugar cane plantations called "kil devil" a foul tasting by-product of

sugar cane processing which later became known as rum. In fiction, Robert Louis

Stevenson gave rum to history thanks to Captain Billy Bones in the book, Treasure
