Abstract
This paper proposes a research project using the Rostovian take-off model and Keynesian theory to analyze if the FIFA World Cup really did stimulate the economic growth of South Africa, and especially of Cape Town, through government and foreign direct investment mainly from FIFA. The appraisal of the World Cup's effect on Cape Town, the author indicates, will include factors such as employment, income generation, tourism growth and the impact on informal traders, communities and construction workers. The paper describes a deductive explanatory approach with a mono-method strategy using a survey based on non-probability convenience sampling methodology. The paper includes figures and a Gantt chart.

From the Paper
"The bids placed by countries and cities to host mega sports events such as the World Cup have increased significantly over the past years. This research proposal throws light on the impact of the event on infrastructural development of the host country and how the event added to economic performance. The promotion and infrastructural cost for holding the World Cup boosted the economic performance of South Africa by 0.05%. Keynesian economics is the main manner used to identify this multiplying effect on respective investments. Countries spend huge amounts of money on upgrading the stadiums and other infrastructural upgrades."

Abstract
This is a reflective paper of the work of the Rev. Mr. John Wm. McKenzie and Dr. Sherwood Hall, Canadian Presbyterian missionaries, who joined a small north Korean congregation in 1893. The paper explains the history behind the work of both Roman Catholic and Protestant missionaries in this area of the world. The paper further looks at the history of the Rev. Mr. John Wm. McKenzie, a native of Cape Breton, who followed in the reputation of the Scottish Dr. John Ross. Though he died within two years of reaching Korea his hard work is much remembered.

From the Paper
"The saga of North American medical and other Protestant missionaries and missions in Korea is a lasting element of Korea's modern history. Through much of the 19th century, the Korean field featured divisions between Roman Catholic and Protestant missionaries, the latter attached to several Canadian and American denominations. Medical and educational missionary work filled important needs in a society struggling with immense class gaps, much poverty, and after 1910-11, the results of the Japanese annexation of the Korean Peninsula."

Summary and Conclusion

From the Paper
"The labor class in Canada experienced many shifts in their political and social climate during the period 1920-1930 in that the labor class rode upon the high waves of victory through their alignment with workers unions that succeeded in bring out about gains to these individuals only to have those gains abruptly removed following World War II. However, the determination of workers unions to organize combined with the injustices experienced by Canadian labor following the war resulted in a final victorious achievement for Canadian laborers, which they were able to realize finally in the late 1930s."

Abstract
This paper looks at the public health dissemination model towards community exploration, needs assessment and information provision and inducing interest and voluntarism. It refers to small regional projects, NB Cape Breton, where attitudinal change is required ahead of large urban centres. Reference is also made to specialized outreach and information as in sub-Saharan African countries. It also discusses how overall, much time should be given to assessing target audience, culturally and to providing careful health promotion/AIDS prevention material, in ways that cultivate ongoing interest.

From the Paper
"Health Behaviour Change is now a usual model in approaching public health initiatives in North America. The PRECEDE-PROCEDE planning model seems suitable in its careful attention to assessing an environment and target audience well. (Gielen & McDonald: 2002) This paper introduces approaches to non-urban communities where AIDS remains a topic not discussed, or with many persons lacking a broad and accurate view of the pandemic. The public tends to become alarmed about AIDS as an incurable condition that is sexually transmitted. Myths still circulate as to how HIV is spread and its implications."

From the Paper
"The three leading states in installation of wind power during 2005 are currently expected to be Texas, Oklahoma and New York. According to the industry spokesmen, the growth of the industry is expected to be sustained and even increase further due to the impact of the Congress extending the wind energy production tax credit through December 31, 2007. This is expected to ensure the growth of wind power in United States by 51 percent and reach a total of 14,000 megawatts. This growth will affect the growth of use of natural gas, and that is used mainly for industry and heating of houses. Only a quarter of the energy is used for producing power. The environmental impact of the wind power produced in United States during 2005 will reduce the emission of greenhouse gas carbon dioxide by about 7 billion pounds. This is the same as keeping 500,000 sports utility vehicles out of the roads."

From the Paper
"This paper is an examination of the forces that shape individual growth and development during the early years of life, using a systems theory approach to considering such development. It focuses on Lark Ann Erhardt, the fictional narrator of Faith Sullivan's novel, The Cape Ann. Lark is six years old at the beginning of the book, and her growth throughout provides a remarkable and realistic portrait of the ways in which biological, psychological, social, and environmental elements affect individual development. Lark provides an intriguing case study of how a child learns codes of behavior and morality, deals with death, develops abstract thinking, establishes sexual identity, and starts to define her individual place in the world. The story is set during the end of the 1930s and the early 1940s, and Lark's case demonstrates the effects of historical..."

From the Paper
"Films make a number of assumptions about gender based on audience beliefs and expectations, and these are derived from the social structure prevalent at the time the film is made. A given film may present different images of gender roles through different characters. In both Fatal Attraction (1987) and the 1992 version of Cape Fear, there are gender roles based on the nuclear family that are held up as preferred or "normal" roles, and these are countered either by the actual behavior of some family member or by an outside force representing a different sexual energy, a different gender role. The films deliberately contrast what the filmmakers see as "normal" gender roles and deviant gender roles, and in both cases the deviant sexual energy threatens the family unit to such a degree that the outside force has to be killed to restore order to the family."

Abstract
The paper examines the Middle-English text of the 'Franklin's Tale' by Chaucer and concludes that it is derived from Breton Lai, a style most famously used in the popular fiction of Marie de France in the Twelfth Century. Over the two hundred year period between the work of Marie de France and Chaucer, literature naturally progressed and it attempts to show that the "Franklin's Tale" is a text that has developed from the characteristically refined and escapist genre of Breton Lai.

From the Paper
"Chaucer is true to Breton lai convention in that he sets the story in a vague, but chivalrous pre-Christian past. The open ended and somewhat psychological dilemma posed at the end of the romance cannot thus be solved by means of Christian intervention. Hypothetically, the fourteenth century church would have advised Dorigen that keeping her promise to Aurelius and thereby committing adultery would be a far greater sin than breaking her promise to him. Arveragus, however, believes that his wife should keep her promise, which again deviates from the traditional allegiance to the loyalty of the lover in Breton lai."

Abstract
A comparison of the dysfunction in the two families portrayed in David Adams Richards "Nights Below Station Street" and Ann-Marie MacDonald's "Fall On Your Knees." The paper argues that the former family achieves redemption through their love but the latter suffers attrition and cannot overcome their high level of dysfunctional interaction.

From the Paper
"Family dysfunction typically characterizes family relations to one degree or another in most families. However, in David Adams Richards' "Nights Below Station Street" and Ann-Marie MacDonald's "Fall On Your Knees," if it were not for family dysfunction the families depicted would not function at all. Richards provides a tale of the Walsh's, a working-class family from the wrong side of the tracks in a small mill town in New Brunswick."
