Protestant Pastoral Ministry at the Beginning of the New Millennium

Viewing ordained ministry as “a troubled profession” is not new. In his 1956 book, The Purpose of the Church and Its Ministry, H. Richard Niebuhr referred to the ministry as “The Perplexed Profession.” Niebuhr attributed the problem primarily to the lack of “a clear-cut, generally accepted conception of the office of the ministry” which he thought, at the time was emerging. Unfortunately, histo...

This is an experimental comparison Of two axi-symmetric, isentropic plug nozzles. In one of these (Model No. 1) the afterbody is cylindricaland a secondary flow is bled into the annular base. The other (Model No. 2) has a parabolic afterbody with no base or bleed. In both cases the expansion is all-external and the design pressure ratio is 14. These models were tested over a range of primary an...

A piloted simulation study of the handling characteristics of the B.A.C. 221 aircraft in the approach configuration was made in preparation for the first flight of the aircraft. The simulation included a simpli~ed representation of the outside visual world, and cockpit motion in pitch and roll. Values of the aircraft's lateral derivatives and moments of inertia were varied to allow for uncertai...

Temperatures and pressures have been measured in the shock-heated gas upstream of the nozzle of a reflected-shock hypersonic tunnel. Temperatures were measured by spectrum-line reversal, using sodium D lines for some measurements and the blue resonance lines of chromium for others. The temperature and pressure measurements immediately behind the first reflected-shock wave agreed well with theor...
