The living standards data compiled by the late Angus Maddison reveal a pattern in which the material living standards of Western Europe were essentially “flat” from the year 1 CE to 1500 CE, and only start increasing dramatically post-1600 CE. The thesis has been advanced that this rise in Western European material living standards correlates wit the birth and development of Economic Thought/Theory, whereby men explicitly attempted to rationalize the laws governing economic phenomena. Prior to 1700 CE, most of life in Western Europe was organized around the dogma and kerygma of the Catholic Church, the influence of which was increasingly diminishing post-1500 CE. Consider the Biblical passages below from the Holy Bible: • Leviticus 25:37. “You shall not lend him your money at interest, nor give him your food for profit.
• Luke 12:15. “And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.”’
• Timothy 6:10. “For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows”’.
• Philippians 4:19. “But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus”

One of the most popular types of online advertising involves buying an ad-link on search engines like Google, Yahoo, or Bing. Advertisers can narrowly target potential customers by buying an ad that will be placed next to the search results for a specific term. For instance, if you used Yahoo search engine and typed in “spaghetti,” you would get 13 million results, ranging from spaghetti recipes, to encyclopedia references, to a link for the “Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster.” In the right column are “sponsored results”—ads for spaghetti cookbooks, pasta making equipment, and several distributors of spaghetti sauce. Each search engine’s advertising system is unique, but you can get a basic understanding of the process by investigating Google’s system called “AdWords.” Go to the AdWords website and then answer the following questions. Explain how the price of an ad on Google is calculated. When purchasing search term advertising, a critical decision is identifying as many possible key terms to describe your product as possible. Suppose you were an online organic food store and you wanted to advertise .your vegetarian spaghetti sauce on Google. What specific keywords would you want to include? (Hint: Use the “keyword tool.”) List the best prospects. Assume your daily advertising budget is $50. What would be the best combination of key terms and cost per click to reach your target audience

Read the issue brief from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation entitled “Education Matters for Health” 2009
There appears to be a dose-response relationship between educational attainment and health—the more you get, the better it is. Why this is true is not clearly understood, though several reasonable hypotheses have been proposed. Describe the 3 interrelated pathways presented as explanations for this relationship in this brief. Which do you feel is the strongest? Why? According to data presented in the brief, “the United States is the only industrialized nation where young people currently are less likely than members of their parents’ generation to be high-school graduates.” What evidence is given to support this statement? Why do you think this situation exists? What will it take to correct it? As would be expected, parents’ educational attainment is linked to their children’s health and even their educational attainment. These linkages, in turn, influence the health and educational attainment of their children’s children, as well, perpetuating an endless intergenerational cycle of high (or low) educational attainment and its associated better (or poorer) health. How does this fit with the biblical understanding of multigenerational influence (Exodus 34:6–7)? In what ways can the Church help interrupt the vicious cycle beginning with low educational attainment? Pray that God will use you to be a positive influence on your children in this area or on others whom God will bring across your path.
