He further argued that these " needs ," as society progressed, would not merely be physical needs but " s soon as his material wants are satisfied, other needs, of an artistic character, will thrust themselves forward the more ardently.

Unlike a Z-drive ( where a conventional propeller is tilted on a vertical rudder axis ) changing the direction of thrust, a Voith-Schneider drive merely requires changing the pattern of orientation of the vertical blades.

Upon seeing this, Phinehas, the grandson of Aaron, took a javelin in his hand and thrust through both the Israelite and the Midianitish woman, which turned away the wrath of God.

When fellow Republicans advised taking a less strident tone than he had years earlier, he answered: " When crime and criminals are thrust before us they are to be met by all the energies that God has given us by argument, scorn, sarcasm and denunciation.

In a similar vein, the earliest sections of the Doctrine and Covenants contain statements such as " if ye have desires to serve God ye are called to the work " ( LDS D & C 4: 3 ) and " whosoever will thrust in his sickle and reap, the same is called of God " ( LDS D & C 6: 4 ).

), Volf has, through his work, forged a theology that has earned him the designation “ a theologian of the bridge .” The main thrust of his theology is to bring the reality and the shape of God ’ s Trinitarian life and love to bear on multiple divisions in today ’ s world — between denominations, faiths, and ethnic groups as well as between the realms of the sacred and the secular ( in particular business, politics, and globalization processes ).

The main thrust of these prophetic claims, as described in Armstrong's book 1975 in Prophecy !, was that a timetable had been set in motion by God and it was the sole purpose of WCG to warn the world of what was going to happen, before time ran out.

I know in my mind that thou hast exalted me above all kings, and thou hast made me horns upon my head, wherewith I might thrust down the kingdoms of the world ... I will magnify thy name, O Lord, forever ... And if the Messiah, who is the Son of God, comes in my days, I and my troops will worship Him ...

But the term is distinct from Soli Deo Gloria in that its main thrust is the function of Christ as the sole mediator between God and man, and his role as saviour, not his divinity, which is already known apart from the Sola.

He has gained only one thing -- he has exploded a 50-megaton bomb and he probably has rockets with sufficient thrust to lob it over the shorter intercontinental ranges.

The book of Jeremiah depicts a remarkably introspective prophet, a prophet who was impetuous and often angered by the role into which he has been thrust.

Hydrogen has also been proposed for use in these engines and would provide much greater specific impulse ( thrust per kilogram of reaction mass ), but it has been claimed that water will beat hydrogen in cost / performance terms despite its much lower specific impulse by orders of magnitude.

The thrust of the new laws has public financing predominate over private contributions to political parties, tightens procedures for auditing the political parties, and strengthens the authority and independence of electoral institutions.

The more narrow and steeply sloping southern flank ( left ) has low, rounded terraces, features interpreted as thrust fault s. The volcano's basal escarpment is prominent.

For extra speed a swimmer wears a body suit, which has rubber or plastic bumps that break up the water close to the body and provides a small amount of thrust — just barely enough to help a swimmer swim faster.

* C-Slot: propellant with large wedge cut out of side ( along axial direction ), producing fairly long regressive thrust, though has thermal difficulties and asymmetric CG characteristics.

The 117, 000 pound Castor 120 first stage has a propellant mass fraction of 92. 23 % while the 31, 000 pound Castor 30 upper stage recently developed for Orbital Science's Taurus II COTS ( International Space Station resupply ) launch vehicle has a 91. 3 % propellant fraction with 2. 9 % graphite epoxy motor casing, 2. 4 % nozzle, igniter and thrust vector actuator, and 3. 4 % non-motor hardware including such things as payload mount, interstage adapter, cable raceway, instrumentation, etc.

MPD technology also has the potential for thrust levels of up to 200 newtons ( N ) ( 45 lbf ), by far the highest for any form of electric propulsion, and nearly as high as many interplanetary chemical rockets.

Even with the lower thrust, the stage also has a thrust-to-weight ratio similar to the original S-IVB, 34, 900 kg being pushed by 350 kN ( 10. 0 N / kg or 1. 02 lbf / lb ), as opposed to 114, 759 kg pushed by 1, 112 kN ( 9. 7 N / kg or 0. 99 lbf / lb ).

Higher exhaust velocity has both benefit and tradeoff, increasing propellant usage efficiency ( more momentum per unit mass of propellant expelled ) but decreasing thrust and the current rate of spacecraft acceleration if available input power is constant ( less momentum per unit of energy given to propellant ).

The M2P2 system therefore has an effective specific impulse which is the amount of gas consumed per newton of thrust.

Note that the gain of momentum of a rocket ( including fuel ) per unit time is not equal to the thrust, because the momentum that the fuel has while in the rocket has to be subtracted to the extent that it is used, i. e., the gain of momentum of a rocket per unit time is equal to the thrust, minus the velocity of the rocket multiplied by the amount of fuel used per unit time.

Its basic thrust is that the state has no right to interfere with the religion of its citizens, Jews included.
