Abstract
This paper examines the liturgical spirituality of Dom Virgil Michel through some of the literature he left behind. It specifically focuses on an article titled the "Significance of the Liturgical Movement" and two books titled, "The Liturgy of the Church" and "Christian Social Reconstruction" that he wrote. The paper also provides a look at Michel's personal views on the relationship of theology and liturgy and that of social justice.
From the Paper
"Despite having died at a relatively young age, he was able to leave an inspirational legacy that perhaps, should be emulated, by liturgists and church leaders today. Virgil Michel lived out, an exemplary life with high moral standards, that propelled him to be involved in social issues in order to potentially make a difference. His experiences did not permit him to be idle. On the contrary, they brought him face to face with social problems that glared the Church and humanity in the eye. His spirituality was evident through his work and involvement with the less fortunate. The essence of his liturgical spirituality is somewhat captured through his writings but cannot be encapsulated by them since it goes much deeper than can be solely expressed in words."

Abstract
This paper consists of a research study focusing on the Dell Computer company, and contends that SOA frameworks increase order transaction velocities, as manufacturers' order management systems are made more efficient through the optimal routing of orders for fulfillment. The paper specifically analyzes whether having an SOA architecture supporting the distributed order management (DOM) workflow at Dell Corporation leads to increased transaction velocities across its manufacturing centers globally. The paper explains that SOA frameworks are adopted primarily to remove barriers from companies' abilities to connect with their customers, better fulfill their orders, and also provide greater levels of service. The paper notes that Dell has found an approach to overcome resistance to change of these programs by giving employees authority and responsibility for the performance of the new systems in each of their departments. The paper concludes that SOA adoption leads to mastery and competency, in addition to a strong sense of ownership, becoming a significant contributor to company operations at Dell.

From the Paper
"As a result of all these factors, SOA frameworks are increasingly becoming the catalyst for organizations to become more customer-centric than has been the case in the past. When entire SOA frameworks are first able to interlink previously isolated systems and then use these systems' interrelated intelligence to create Web Services that streamline customer-facing strategies and processes, organizations generate greater customer satisfaction and sales as a result. The bottom line is that the steps necessary for creating an SOA framework set in motion the necessary changes within any organization to make it more customer-centric in the long run as well."

Abstract
A look at the the first amendment and a discussion on why the framers of the Constitution felt it was so important to include this clause. The author discusses several areas guaranteed by the First Amendment, such as freedom of religion that should not be taken lightly. This paper pays particular attention to the U.S. Supreme Court ruling that struck down a federal law to limit pornography. The author also uses examples of religious oppression in China, and against the Dalai Lama as examples.
From the Paper
"This does not, however, mean that the press is entirely free even today. There are at least two key areas over which advocates for limitation on the freedom of expression and advocates for a greater freedom of expression frequently clash. The first of these has also been in the news lately, for it concerns the idea of national security. The federal government has " probably since there was a federal government " withheld some information from the American people on the grounds that to reveal such information publicly would be tantamount to compromising the security of the nation."
