Introduction The 2001 maven conference bore testimony to the growth of interest in E W L' over the past few decades. In the years between ? the first major academic gathering on this subject, the seminal conference on cross-cultural communication held at the University of Illinois in 1978 (Kachru 1992), and MAVEN 2001, much has been written and spoken about the spread of English around the world, the diverse ways in which the language has developed in this process, especially in the Outer Circle,2 and about the wider implications of this unique socio- linguistic development. Crystal (2003) lists 75 territories in which English is currently spoken as either a) the principal or only L1, or b) as an L2 with official or institutionalized status (World Englishes). These range from Antigua to Zambia, spread across vast distances and exceptionally varied linguacultural contexts. Among these implications, the issue of the ownership of English and its passing from native to non-native speakers has received considerable comment. Graddol typically points out that ?native speakers may feel the language `belongs' to them, but it will be those who speak English as a second or foreign language who will determine its world future? (1997: 10).

The Catholic Church that I visited was Ste. Marie Parish. This is a colorful church that was built in the olden days. The paintings are beautifully done and they seem to be a modification of Leonardo Da Vinci. These historic art works are quite impressing. I observed that most of these followers were mainly from the Latin world. The Catholic Church has a very different approach in the way they conduct their church service as compared to the other denominations. Catholic faith believes in confessing to the priest which I found absurd. The bible tells us to pray direct to God and he will have the prayers answered. I strongly support this part of their belief.

Horton Foote and "To Kill a Mockingbird" Some aspects of a literary work are often revealed through the author's biography. Horton Foote is no exception, as his biography reveals a thoughtful Southern writer who could brilliantly capture life's conflicts, triumphs and defeats. Both honored and criticized, Foote remained a considerate chronicler of humanity whose work is still admired decades after publication and whose life is an inspiration. The film of To Kill a Mockingbird, with adaptation written by Horton Foote, faithfully represents Harper Lee's remembrance of small-town southern life, with its slow movement, gentility and darker forces of xenophobia and racism. Initially reluctant to write an adaptation, Horton Foote was persuaded to write it by reading the book at his wife's urging and by meeting the young, previously unknown writer, Harper Lee. The themes are enduring and masterfully presented through the eyes of a child who is initially innocent and blissfully ignorant but gradually confronts some difficult issues of 1930's southern life.
