Eirjet

Eirjet was a charter airline with its head office on the grounds of Shannon International Airport in Shannon, County Clare, Ireland. It operated charter services to sun and ski destinations throughout Europe. Its main base was Shannon Airport.

The airline ceased operations on 17 October 2006 after notifying Irish aviation regulators that it was unable to meet its obligations to its tour operator clients. Efforts to find new financial backing were unsuccessful.

History
The airline was established in 2004 and started operations on 23 December 2004 with an inaugural flight to Agadir with an Airbus A320. Another two aircraft were added in summer 2005 to add flights from Cork and Shannon. One of them was painted in Air Jamaica colours, its former operator. The company founders include former Skynet Airlines personnel and Bernard Healy, who owns Idray, a Dublin company controlling the operations of Omni Tours, Omni Travel, Malaga Express and Faro Express.

Eirjet made an application to the United States Department of Transportation to permit the airline to perform ad hoc charters between Ireland and the USA, within the US and from the US to third countries.

The airline had an unusual philosophy of leasing aircraft. For example, on February 18, 2006, the airline wet-leased all three Airbus aircraft to Ryanair and hired in three aircraft from airlines including Transavia, Flyjet and Eagle Aviation to cover its own charter program. Overselling its actual capacity and wet leasing in additional aircraft can be attributed to Eirjet's cashflow difficulties, with most subchartered activity costing the company far in excess of the revenue generated from operating the flights. At the inauguration of their operations, the company had only one Airbus A320 while their schedule demanded at least four aircraft.

Fleet
The Eirjet fleet consisted of the following aircraft:

In March 2006, the Eirjet fleet's average age was 9.6 years old.

Incidents and accidents

 * 29 March 2006 - Eirjet issued an apology after a flight it operated from Liverpool John Lennon Airport to City of Derry Airport on behalf of Ryanair landed at the wrong airfield, touching down at Ballykelly Airfield, a former RAF base and more recently an Army base some 4 miles away from its intended destination. The statement explained that the incident was caused by an "error by the Eirjet pilot who mistakenly believed he was on a visual approach to City of Derry airport". An air accident investigation report in January 2007 reported that the pilot had been unable to obtain the correct set of charts prior to the flight, only obtaining them the day after the incident. The pilot stated that if he had seen the charts, he would have been fully aware of the existence of Ballykelly and would not have landed there. The crew believed the instrument landing aid system at City of Derry was malfunctioning as what they saw of the runway did not match the instrument readings and the presence of an instrument calibrating aircraft close by added to their belief that there was a technical fault. The report also stated that although an air traffic controller thought the jet was "slightly low" he did not warn the crew about the other runway.

Talk:Uptown, Minneapolis

A couple of recommendations: 1. The Walker "LIBRARY" sculpture (and the library itself) are no longer there. I'd like to see the article edited to reflect this. 2. The "businesses" section of the article would be better served by being a list, rather than being shoehorned into a paragraph. Whorticulture (talk) 17:21, 10 April 2014 (UTC)

Hi, how do people feel about creating a stronger page structure with more appropriate heading sections? Here is a suggested one: 1. History 2. Culture and Arts 3. Geography and Climate 4. Demographics 5. Economy 6. Parks and recreation 7. Transportation 8. Business and Public Buildings 9. See Also 10. References 11. Further Reading 12. External Links This is just a suggested one, but something along these lines that give more specific heading names and areas for article growth.Dean15 (talk) 02:55, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

Dean15, I think thats a good idea. It would create a better flow of the article. It would also make the article longer and more in depth for those that aren't familair with uptown Minneapolis. I'm not sure what could be included in #5 Economy. It seems like it would be difficult to locate valid sources to create this section. I was thinking of adding a crime section into the article as there are many crimes in that area. It would be fairly easy to add statistics in this section as they are provided on the City of Mpls 5 precint page. Nnh416 (talk) 14:10, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

I agree with the both of you (Dean15, and Nnh416). I don't mind the structure idea that Dean15 has, but I do agree with Nnh416 that the economy section could be replaced with a crime section, but I'm not sure if we would necessarily want to name the section "Crime". And, one may still be able to find some good information as far as economics in the area is concerned; if that information can be found and is useful for this article, then we wouldn't have to omit the economics portion. Maybe the information about crime in the area could be placed under another section (only none of the other sections fit with crime). Maybe a "MISC." section could be added to the structure listed above? (I just think the title "Crime" is too...I can't think of the word I want to use...not bad, but I'm just thinking along the lines of someone who wants to visit the area who's new in town or what have you. I think it might rub them the wrong way to see an entire section about crime in the article versus information about crime in the area just listed within one of the other sections. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.29.246.223 (talk) 18:12, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

What about a sub section in the demographics section that would include crime statistics? Dean15 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 03:03, 12 November 2009 (UTC).

 * "Southwest Minneapolis" refers to a specific part of Minneapolis, more so than "southwestern Minneapolis." Not that it's a big deal, so I'm not going to change it back. Mikepjones 16:31, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * I get what you're saying, but there isn't any reason for "Southwest" to be capitalized in that term. There is no neighborhood designation known as Southwest Minneapolis; it's not even thought of as a hugely distinct area, like South Minneapolis (or, maybe even better yet, North Minneapolis), which arguably should or could be capitalized (though I wouldn't personally).  By "Southwest Minneapolis," you're really saying the southwest quadrant of Minneapolis, or the southwestern part of the city. Since  "southwestern" is the adjective form of "southwest," I think it's most correct.  I'd be open to any comments.  Moncrief 01:20, Apr 21, 2005 (UTC)

 * I disagree. Southwest is a very particular designation for a large part of the city.  It's not a quadrant.  It's a collection of neighborhoods.  It's referred to all the time, with caps.  For example, here's one of my favorite papers, the Southwest Journal. dfrankow 00:38, 12 November 2005 (UTC)

 * It isn't referred to often in all caps. That is the title of a community newspaper, so by definition it is in caps (it's a title).  Rarely in thoughtful literature is "Southwest" capped when referring to that area of the city.  Moncrief 03:33, 12 November 2005 (UTC)

 * Southwest is an official community of Minneapolis, which contains several neighborhoods, so it is proper to capitalize it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Mpls.png --RLent 19:03, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

Anyone from Uptown? I used to live there and try to make it back whenever I can. I was thinking that maybe we could take some pics of the area to post on the article. THX-1138

This article really needs help.. like some pictures of the area and actual links to the websites for some of the local businesses. I added several today. I don't have a user ID here yet, though. 12/18/2005.

Geographic Boundaries
I have lived in Minneapolis both in and near Uptown for 15 years. I don't think that anybody who actually lives in Minneapolis refers to the geographic boundaries of Uptown as broadly as they are described in this article. (at least to the north and east) The area mentioned covers many other well established neighborhoods like The Wedge, Lyn-Lake, and Kenwood. People who refer to Uptown this broadly are not from the area usually. I am going to edit that part of the description.

 * I have lived in Uptown for over 10 years, and I disagree with your more tightly-defined geographic boundaries. The Wedge and Lyn-Lake are generally considered sub-sections within Uptown. If you disagree, explain this picture from Google maps that clearly shows two businesses with "Uptown" in their names, within the Lyn-Lake area (the corner of Lake St. and Aldrich Ave.):
 * http://maps.google.com/maps?q=minneapolis&ll=44.948361,-93.289686&spn=0.000015,0.017885&hnear=Minneapolis,+Hennepin,+Minnesota&gl=us&t=m&z=17&layer=c&cbll=44.948358,-93.289806&panoid=00hDTy9Er4VvUwhRJszARg&cbp=12,38.1,,0,6.1

 * According to the boundaries as currently defined in the article, the two businesses in this picture ("The Uptown Hair District" and the "Uptown Lake Apartments") would not be in Uptown. Neither would the Uptown Diner (26th & Hennepin). I think a more commonly accepted definition of the borders of Uptown would be the four neighborhoods that converge at the corner of Hennepin and Lake - East Isles, Lowry Hill East, Ecco, and CARAG. In other words, from Franklin Ave in the north to 36th St in the south, and from E Calhoun Parkway/Lake of the Isles Parkway E in the west to Lyndale Ave in the east.

 * I too am a resident of Minneapolis... as for the western boundry. France Ave is the western border of Mpls (http://www.minneapolismn.gov/www/groups/public/@bis/documents/maps/convert_264339.pdf) so I believe the article is wrong in stating Highway 100 as the western boundry. Past France Ave a completely differenent demographic shows up, independent of Uptown. Otherwise I agree that Wedge & Lyn-Lake are generally considered part of the Eastern side of Uptown. For another perspective - http://minneapolis.about.com/od/minneapolisneighborhoods/p/uptown.htm Sceptre1067 (talk) 15:18, 11 November 2014 (UTC)

Business listings
Why are there so many businesses listed in this article? Rx StrangeLove 19:14, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Unless someone strongly objects I'm going to take most of them out, they don't serve any purpose and we're not a directory...Rx StrangeLove 19:25, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

Neighborhood or commercial district or area/place? And those who don't live there versus those who do
Okay, I consider myself Mpls savvy so let me propose this idea to mess up the article. Uptown is not an official neighborhood and those who OWN (not rent) in the proper neighborhoods (Lowry, Whittier, etc) don't consider themselves really part of an Uptown n'hood but identify closely to that of the actual neighborhoods. Let me be bold and say that the Uptown "neighborhood" is an idea perpetuated by the business association and unbeknowest Twin Citians and not the residents nor long-time Minneapolitans themselves. In this case, Uptown should only be referred to as say a "commercial district" or a "popular area" WITH a mention that people frequently confuse Uptown as a neighborhood because they do not understand the centuries-old history of Minneapolis neighborhoods. This is so that people on Wikipedia are not confused by the fact that our NRP has no mention of Uptown and realize Uptown is a creation of suburbanites. The wording such should be changed to reflect this. Similarly I've done this to the Lyn-Lake article which again is an admitted creation of their business association in order to get suburbanites more familiar with the area. I have nothing against district-identity (ie: Eat Street (Whittier), Broadway (Near North), Warehouse District (North Loop) but this is an important distinction to make. Davumaya 19:56, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Proposal to change it to "Uptown is a district of Minneapolis" Davumaya 20:01, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

 * I'm not so sure that Uptown is a "creation of suburbanites"; the Uptown Theater has been named as such since 1929, so the concept of Uptown has been around for awhile (it's also possible that the surrounding commercial district was named after the theater, but this would've occured long before postwar suburbanization). However, I have no problem with referring to uptown as a district; anybody that looks at the neighborhood map on the city website knows that Uptown isn't an official neighborhood (four different neighborhoods meet at Hennepin/Lake, often considered the heart of Uptown). Other articles on commercial districts in Minneapolis should be updated as well. Eco84 | Talk 16:34, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Apologies, I meant to say that today, the Uptown "neighborhood" is what mostly non-Minneapolitan proper people would call the area, not knowing of history. Yes I understand the Uptown area has existed for a long time, the uptown is a location of many major cities referring to a district just outside the CBD and generally up a slope. I live in Prospect Park and am miffed when people just generalize the entire area as the "University neighborhood" or an extension of Stadium Village. Anyway I (or you or whoever) will go ahead and edit the text. Davumaya 08:47, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

I'm not editing anything at this point, but wanted to point out that the Uptown name has been around a long time, and was created in the 1920s for the business district based on the Uptown neighborhood of Chicago. It was not based on being "up" from downtown or on a slope. It was a marketing decision by a group of businessmen. Uptown has been considered a neighborhood beyond just the business district since at least the 1980s - I think probably from around the time Calhoun Square opened. Prior to that it was sometimes called Uptown, but mostly people talked about the Hennepin-Lake area. Most people, at least those who have lived in Uptown for a long time, do consider it a neighborhood, not a district. It is not a formal neighborhood in the eyes of the city (as far as NRP money, etc. goes) but it IS a neighborhood in the eyes of probably the majority of the people who live or have lived there. The concept that "uptown is a creation of suburbanites" is 100% wrong - one only has to read the historic documents from the '20s (and beyond) to realize that this isn't true. I don't think most owners identify more with their immediate neighborhood group than they do with Uptown, at least not the many, many owners I've known. (I'm a renter but grew up there, and hope to be an owner soon.)It is a valid point that readers should be aware that the informal Uptown boundaries do not match NRP boundaries, as I'm sure that is confusing to those not familiar with the area (or with Mpls's formal neighborhood designations) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.7.41.112 (talk) 07:15, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

Merge
Here is the issue. I am going to make improvements but have fallen into a bit of a quandary. We have the official neighborhood articles (ie: CARAG, Minneapolis Calhoun-Isles, Minneapolis Lowry Hill, Minneapolis) and then we have "Uptown." Now aren't we technically duplicating everything here? And if we end up realizing we are duplicating everything, where do we merge or redirect? Or more properly, where does one article stop and the other pick up. For example Lowry Hill was distinctly separate until the advent of the Lakes Area, so the histories are different. But today they are fairly the same. .:DavuMaya:. 17:16, 20 June 2008 (UTC) This was a merge proposal but de nada. .:davumaya:. 20:22, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

Schools
I've noticed that many other wikipedia pages talking about an area or a city has a section discussing schools. does anyone disagree or agree with adding a section specifically discussing schools? I think it would be very useful for many people who are taking a look at this page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sahm1504 (talk • contribs) 04:47, 10 April 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Uomo universale

Should this page be expanded or should it be deleted since we have Polymath already? The current version of Polymath suggests that the two lemmata are mutually exchangeable, but I feel that the renaissance concept of uomo universale is a little different from the notion of polymath and may deserve its own page.--Thomas Ruefner 16:38, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)

thomas, once again i must encourage you to provide this distinction, even if it is a mere sentence. U.U. and polymath seem to be closely enough related that they can depend to some degree on each other's contents for backup - e.g., both do not need to include the same list of renaissance men, imho. cheers!

Plestor House, Selborne

Plestor House is a house in the centre of Selborne, Hampshire, England. The house is named for its location — adjacent to the village's plestor. Architecturally, the house has grown over the centuries. The oldest section, that facing the village green (known as The Plestor — from the Saxon words pleg stow, meaning play space), dates from the third quarter of the 17th century. The roof incorporates fire-blackened timbers which have been dated by dendrochronology to the early 14th century, and it is thought that they come from the house which previously stood on the site. A recent excavation of the cellar unearthed Tudor bricks, which were also fire-damaged and may therefore point to the fate of the house's predecessor.

The second section of the house dates from 1783, according to a stone set into the upper storey. The mortar lines between the local malmstones of this section are studded with pieces of iron, a local characteristic known as galletting. The most recent addition came at the turn of the 20th century. It effectively filled in the square formed by the L-shape of the two older wings.

Attached to the house is an ancient building which was the first site of the village school. The school was originally endowed in 1728, under the will of the grandfather of Gilbert White, the early naturalist.

The north-east corner of the house appears in one of the plates in the first edition of Gilbert White's famous book, The Natural History and Antiquities of Selborne (1789).

The house is now listed Grade II as being of architectural significance.

Talk:Singular value

The definition of singular value given here is not general enough for the article singular value decomposition, since over there we need the concept for non-square matrices as well. AxelBoldt 16:41, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Why "singular"?
What's "singular" about a singular value? (Why the name?) —Ben FrantzDale 16:56, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
 * According to my math prof, it's just that these are the values that make $$(\sqrt{A^*A}-\lambda I)$$ singular. —Ben FrantzDale 21:02, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

What is |A|?
What is the meaning of |A| as mentioned in the article? --Drizzd (talk) 09:16, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

 * I am told that |A| is in fact defined as $$\sqrt{A^* A}$$, and therefore the previous formulation did not make any sense. I now expanded |A| to $$U |\Lambda| U^*$$ for the unitary diagonalization $$A = U \Lambda U*$$. $$|\Lambda|$$ can now be interpreted as either $$\sqrt{\Lambda* \Lambda}$$ or as taking element-wise absolute value, because both give the same result. --Drizzd (talk) 20:37, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

S-number
Who the hell calls them "s-number"? That's the first time I've heard the term. I'm moving this back to "Singular value". Swap (talk) 22:31, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

that s the first time i heard that too مبتدئ (talk) 17:27, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

I would like to second that. If there is no reference where singular values are called s-numbers, it should be removed. 70.92.123.71 (talk) 17:46, 12 October 2019 (UTC)

singular value and operator norm
I have a question: It is known that the max singular value is an operator norm (more precisly the one described here talks about the through the ||. ||2 induced operator Norm). Since the max singular value is a kind of strongest amplification of a system/ norm and since one can use different norms to define an induced operator norm, is the max singular value only limited or defined with the 2 induced norm or can one define it with any other norm???? Best regards مبتدئ (talk) 17:27, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

I mean max singular value is defined as:

$$max_{|u|_{2}}\frac{||Au||_{2}}{||u||_{2}}$$

with $$||u||_{2}= \sum u_{i}^{2}$$

now if i take another norm different from the 2 Norm, does this define a max singular value too??? thanks مبتدئ (talk) 17:37, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

other formulation of the question: the max singular value is the induced 2 norm of the operator. Is the induced infinity or the induced 5 norm of the operator also a/ the max singular value ??? مبتدئ (talk) 17:51, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

Chapter needed
Can anyone add a chapter about what a structured singular value is? مبتدئ (talk) 01:40, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

Merge with Singular Value Decomposition
Wouldn't it be better to merge this article with Singular Value Decomposition? It's far more complete and defines singular values in a much better way then this article does... anoko_moonlight (talk) 12:32, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

HIstory
The history parts of this article do not agree with the Wikipedia entry Singular value decomposition. There we read that the term singular value was coined by Picard, while here the credit goes to Smithies. Who is right?

In linear algebra... (proposal for new text to be inserted in the article)
In Linear Algebra, an eigenvalue and eigenvector of a square matrix A are a scalar λ and a nonzero vector x so that

 $$      Ax=\lambda x   $$

A singular value and pair of singular vectors of a square or rectangular matrix A are a non-negative scalar σ and two nonzero vectors u and v so that

' $$     Av = \sigma u $$'' $$     A^H u = \sigma v $$'''

The superscript on $$A^H$$ stands for Hermitian transpose and denotes the complex conjugate transpose of a complex matrix. If the matrix is real, then $$A^T$$ denotes the same matrix.

78.38.243.139 (21:15, 7 August 2011)

s-number: redirect
Hello,

singular values are also called s-numbers as stated in the article, but s-number redirects to Meter Point Administration Number without any notice that singular value is also a valid meaning. Can someone with knowledge in the English Wikipedia (I only edit the German one regulary) add this?

Kind regards,

ThE cRaCkEr 14:25, 28 March 2012 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by ThE cRaCkEr (talk • contribs)

"If T is self-adjoint, then the largest singular value s1(T) is equal to the operator norm of T"
Why does T have to be self-adjoint for max singular value to become operator norm?

$$max_x \frac{||Tx||}{||x||} = max_x \frac{||UDV^*x||}{||x||} = max_y \frac{||Dy||}{||y||} = max s(T)$$, where $$y = V^* x$$

 * You are right, removed the self-adjoint condition because it is unnecessary and really confusing. Yvanko55 (talk) 19:06, 3 August 2016 (UTC)

In complex dynamics
There is also a notion of singular value in complex dynamics; namely for an entire holomorphic function f:\CC\to\CC, w\in\CC is a singular value iff it is a branch point of f as a covering, that is, for any neighbourhood V\in\CC of w, there is a component U_i of f^{-1}(V) so f is not injective on U_i. This notion should also be mentioned somewhere ...

Plundered Hearts

Plundered Hearts is an interactive fiction video game created by Amy Briggs and published by Infocom in 1987. Infocom's only game in the romance genre, it was released simultaneously for the Commodore 64, Atari 8-bit computers, Atari ST, Amiga, classic Mac OS, and MS-DOS. It is Infocom's twenty-eighth game.

Plot
Plundered Hearts casts the player in a well-defined role. The lead character is a young woman in the late 17th century who has received a letter. Jean Lafond, the governor of the small West Indies island of St. Sinistra, says that the player's father has contracted a "wasting tropical disease". Lafond suggests that his recovery would be greatly helped by the loving presence of his daughter, and sends his ship (the Lafond Deux) to transport her.

As the game begins, the ship is attacked by pirates and the player's character is kidnapped. Eventually the player's character finds that two men are striving for her affections: dashing pirate Nicholas Jamison, and the conniving Jean Lafond. As the intrigue plays out, the lady does not sit idly by and watch the men duel over her; she must help Jamison overcome the evil plans of Lafond so they have a chance to live happily ever after.

Development
As early as 1984 Infocom employees joked about the possibility of a romance text adventure, although The Boston Globe observed that "somehow the moves don't seem appropriate to a computer keyboard". By 1987, the year of Plundered Hearts's release, Infocom no longer rated its games on difficulty level.

Although this was not the only Infocom game designed in an effort to attract female players (one example being Moonmist), it is the only game in which the lead character is always female.

Release
The Plundered Hearts package included an "elegant velvet reticule" (pouch) containing the following items:
 * 1) A 50 guinea banknote from St. Sinistra
 * 2) A letter from Jean Lafond reporting the illness of the player character's father

Reception
Game reviewers Hartley, Patricia, and Kirk Lesser complimented Plundered Hearts in their "The Role of Computers" column in Dragon #128 (1987), citing its "gripping prose, challenging predicaments, and scenes of derring-do". Computer Gaming World said "this might be the perfect gift for your 'significant other' so that she can understand why interactive fiction is so fascinating". Compute! praised Plundered Hearts' writing and said that the game was suitable for both men and women. ANALOG Computing approved of the game's "intrigue, adventure and, yes, romance" but regretted that "most of Infocom's regular audience (presumably male) are likely to forsake this bold new endeavor" because of its genre.

Henri de Lubac

Henri-Marie Joseph Sonier de Lubac (20 February 1896 – 4 September 1991), better known as Henri de Lubac, was a French Jesuit priest and cardinal who is considered one of the most influential theologians of the 20th century. His writings and doctrinal research played a key role in shaping the Second Vatican Council.

Early life and ordination
Henri de Lubac was born in Cambrai to an ancient noble family of the Ardèche. He was one of six children; his father was a banker and his mother a homemaker. The family returned in 1898 to the Lyon district, where Henri was schooled by Jesuits. A born aristocrat in manner and appearance, de Lubac studied law for a year before, aged 17, joining the Society of Jesus in Lyon on 9 October 1913. Owing to the political climate in France at the time as a result of the French anti-church laws of the early twentieth century, the Jesuit novitiate had temporarily relocated to St Leonards-on-Sea, East Sussex, where de Lubac studied before being drafted to the French army in 1914 due to the outbreak of the Great War. He received a head wound at Les Éparges on All Saints Day, 1917, which would give him recurring episodes of dizziness and headaches for the rest of his life. Following demobilisation in 1919, de Lubac returned to the Jesuits and continued his philosophical studies, first at Hales Place in Canterbury and then, from 1920 to 1923, at the Maison Saint-Louis, the Jesuit philosophate located at that time in St. Helier, Jersey. It was here that he would encounter the thought of Maurice Blondel and Pierre Rousselot. The encounter with Blondel would prove especially important. In 1932, de Lubac would eventually write to Blondel and tell him of his encounter with L'Action in the early 1920s, and how Blondel's thought around the problem of integralism became one of the central instigators of de Lubac's search for a renewed understanding of the relationship between nature and grace. De Lubac taught at the Jesuit College at Mongré, in the Rhône, from 1923 to 1924, and then in 1924 returned to England and began his four years of theological studies at Ore Place in Hastings, East Sussex. In 1926, the Jesuit college was relocated back to Fourvière in Lyons, where de Lubac completed the remaining two years of his theological studies. He was ordained to the priesthood on 22 August 1927.

Professor and theologian
In 1929, de Lubac was appointed professor of fundamental theology at the Catholic University of Lyon (the required doctorate having been conferred by the Gregorian University in Rome at the behest of the Father General of the Society of Jesus, without de Lubac's setting foot there or ever submitting a dissertation). He would teach there from 1929 to 1961, though with two interruptions – first during World War II, when he was forced underground because of his activities with the French Resistance, and then from 1950 to 1958, when the Society of Jesus, under pressure from Rome, removed him from his teaching responsibilities and the Fourvière Jesuit residence.

During the 1930s de Lubac spent his time teaching at the Catholic University and researching, as well as teaching (between 1935 and 1940) one course at the Jesuit seminary at Fourvière (where he also lived from 1934 onwards). His first book, the now-classic Catholicisme (English title of the current edition: Catholicism: Christ and Common Destiny of Man) was published in 1938, before the war. In 1940, he founded the series Sources Chrétiennes ("Christian Sources"), co-edited with fellow Jesuit Jean Daniélou, a collection of bilingual, critical editions of early Christian texts and of the Church Fathers that has reinvigorated both the study of patristics and the doctrine of Sacred Tradition.

During the Second World War, the first interruption to this pattern came: de Lubac joined a movement of "spiritual resistance," assisting in the publication of an underground journal of Nazi resistance called Témoignage chrétien, or Christian Testimony. It was intended to show the incompatibility of Christian belief with the philosophy and activities of the Nazi regime, both in Germany and also under the cover of the Vichy government in southern France, which was theoretically independent of the Reich. De Lubac was often in hiding from the Germans and several of his co-workers on the journal were captured and executed. Even in hiding, he continued to study and write.

From 1944 onwards, with the end of the Nazi occupation of France, de Lubac came out of hiding and published a number of texts (many of them begun or completed before the war but not published in the early 1940s because of the shortage of paper) which became major interventions in twentieth-century Catholic theology. These included: Corpus Mysticum, which had been ready for publication in 1939, and appeared in February 1944; Le Drame de l'humanisme athée,  (The Drama of Atheist Humanism) published in December 1944; De la connaissance de Dieu published in 1945; Surnaturel: Études historiques (a book which de Lubac had started at Hastings in his student days), published in 1946 in a print run of 700 copies, because of the ongoing paper shortage.

"The dark years"
In June 1950, as de Lubac himself said, "lightning struck Fourvière." De Lubac, who resided at Fourvière but actually did no teaching there, and four Fourvière professors were removed from their duties (in de Lubac's case these included his professorship at Lyon and his editorship of Recherches de science religieuse) and required to leave the Lyon province. All Jesuit provincials were directed to remove three of his books (Surnaturel, Corpus mysticum, and Connaissance de Dieu) and one article from their libraries and, as far as possible, from public distribution. The action came through the Jesuit Superior General, Jean-Baptiste Janssens, under pressure from the curial office, and was because of "pernicious errors on essential points of dogma." Two months later, Pope Pius XII issued the encyclical Humani generis, widely believed to have been directed at de Lubac and other theologians associated with the nouvelle théologie, an intellectual movement characterized by renewed attention to the patristic sources of Catholicism, a willingness to address the ideas and concerns of contemporary men and women, a focus on pastoral work and respect for the competencies of the laity, and a sense of the Catholic Church as existing in history and affected by it.

What de Lubac called "the dark years" lasted nearly a decade. It was not until 1956 that he was allowed to return to Lyon and not until 1958 that the university got verbal approval from Rome for de Lubac to return to teaching the courses he previously taught.

Although everything de Lubac wrote during these years was subject to censorship in Rome, he never ceased to study, write, and publish. During these years he brought out a study of Origen's biblical exegesis (1950), three books on Buddhism (1951, 1952, 1955), Méditations sur l'Église (1953 – a text which would have great influence on Lumen Gentium, the document produced at Vatican II on the nature of the church), and Sur les chemins de Dieu (1956).

Return to acceptance
His pioneering study Exégèse médiévale (1959–1965) revived interest in the spiritual exegesis of scripture and provided a major impetus to the development of covenantal theology.

Just before and during the conciliar years, with the blessing of his order, de Lubac also began to write and publish books and articles in defense of the writings of Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, his older friend and fellow Jesuit, who had died in 1955. Teilhard's ideas had influenced several of the theologians of the nouvelle théologie and had also met with extreme disfavour in Rome.

Second Vatican Council
In August 1960, Pope John XXIII appointed de Lubac as a consultant to the Preparatory Theological Commission for the upcoming Second Vatican Council. He was then made a peritus (theological expert) to the council itself, and later, by Pope Paul VI, a member of its Theological Commission (as well as of two secretariats). Although the precise nature of his contribution during the council is difficult to determine, his writings were certainly an influence on the conciliar and post-conciliar periods, particularly in the area of ecclesiology where one of his concerns was to understand the church as the community of the whole people of God rather than just the clergy. De Lubac's influence on Lumen gentium (Dogmatic Constitution on the Church) and Gaudium et spes (Constitution on the Church in the Modern World) is generally recognized.

Late years
In 1969 Pope Paul VI, an admirer of de Lubac's works, had proposed making him a cardinal but de Lubac demurred, believing that for him to become a bishop, as required of all cardinals, would be "an abuse of an apostolic office". Paul VI, having committed to creating a Jesuit cardinal, conferred the honor on de Lubac's junior colleague Jean Daniélou instead.

In the years after Vatican II, de Lubac came to be known as a "conservative theologian", his views completely in line with the magisterium – in contrast to his progressive reputation in the first part of his life. Contributing to this reputation, in 1972 de Lubac, alongside Joseph Ratzinger who later became Pope Benedict XVI, and Hans Urs von Balthasar, founded the journal Communio − a journal which acquired a reputation as offering a more conservative theology than Concilium.

In 1983 Pope John Paul II offered to make de Lubac a cardinal, this time with a dispensation from being consecrated a bishop. De Lubac accepted and became the first non-bishop cardinal since the 1962 rule requiring cardinals to be bishops. In the consistory of 2 February 1983, Pope John Paul II raised de Lubac, at 87, to the College of Cardinals. He was created Cardinal Deacon of Santa Maria in Domnica. On 24 May 1990, de Lubac became the oldest living cardinal. He died in Paris in 1991.

Possible canonization
On 31 March 2023 the Bishops' Conference of France voted to open the cause for canonization for de Lubac due to his influence on Catholic theology and philosophy. If the Vatican agrees, he will be given the title of "Servant of God".

Commodity currency

A commodity currency is a currency that co-moves with the world prices of primary commodity products, due to these countries' heavy dependency on the export of certain raw materials for income. Commodity currencies are most prevalent in developing countries (eg. Burundi, Tanzania, Papua New Guinea). In the foreign exchange market, commodity currencies generally refer to the New Zealand dollar, Norwegian krone, South African rand, Brazilian real, Russian ruble and the Chilean peso. Commodity currencies' nature can allow foreign exchange traders to more accurately gauge a currency's value, and predict movements within markets based on the perceived value of the correlated commodity.

Effects
Due to the nature of commodity currencies being tied to commodities, being tied to any one good can be beneficial as well as problematic for the country. While falling or rising exports will lead to deflation or inflation respectively in any country, the impacts are more severe in countries with commodity currencies, as their currencies are so heavily tied to a set few commodities.

Positive
According to a 2009 study on commodity currency titled "Can Exchange Rates Forecast Commodity Prices?" by Yu-Chin Chen, Kenneth Rogoff and Barbara Rossi, exchange rates of commodity currencies can predict future global commodity prices. This is hugely beneficial for economists and policymakers who want a reliable measure of future commodity prices.

A currency that is naturally tied to a country’s major commodities can be beneficial if global demand for a commodity increases, naturally strengthening the value of the currency. As seen in Figure 1, as the demand for a commodity shifts out (higher demand) the price increases to p’. This increased demand also is likely to increase GDP, as more exports take place as demonstrated by the equation for GDP below.

As exports increase due to higher demand, GDP will also increase greatly as this country relies heavily on this commodity, leading to higher prices causing inflation (indicated in Figure 2’s increase in the price level). Depending on whether the inflation is economically beneficial, this could be positive (see Inflation).

It is important to note that while countries with commodity currencies benefit from higher demand, countries that import this commodity face the opposite effects.

Negative
On the other side, a currency being tied to the major commodities of a country can be problematic, as a decrease in demand for any specific commodity can take a huge toll on the country's currency, leading to deflation.

As seen in Figure 3, as the demand for a commodity shifts in (less demand) the quantity decreases to q’. This decreased demand is likely to decrease GDP, as less exporting takes place, as demonstrated by the equation for GDP below.

Similar to the reasoning in the previous section, as seen in Figure 4, a decrease in GDP leads to deflation. This can have negative or positive effects, depending on whether the nation's currency was overvalued or undervalued. Deflation can either be positive or negative in the long run as suggested by the effects section of the deflation article.

It is important to note that while countries with commodity currencies benefit from higher demand of a commodity, countries that import this commodity face the opposite effects.

Externalities
Most commodities that are tied to currencies are natural resources such as gold, oil, timber and other minerals. However, the mining of these raw resources can lead to immense externalities such as pollution. Countries whose currencies do not hinge on commodity price movements are generally more willing to minimize harmful environmental processes, thus reducing affiliated externalities.

Countries whose currencies are impacted profoundly by commodities are generally less willing to tighten their environmental policies which would reduce externalities. For example, the Canadian dollar is closely tied to soybeans and oil. The production of oil is extremely harmful to the environment. However, reducing oil production through cap-and-trade programs or production taxes can be devastating to the Canadian dollar.

Paradise, Hawaiian Style

Paradise, Hawaiian Style is a 1966 American musical comedy film starring Elvis Presley. It was the third and final motion picture that Presley filmed in Hawaii. The film reached #40 on the Variety weekly box office chart, earning $2.5 million in theaters. In agreeing to do this film, Elvis's manager, Colonel Tom Parker, was hoping to replicate the success of Presley's 1961 film, Blue Hawaii.

Plot
Rick Richards (Presley) returns to his home in Hawaii after being fired from his job as an airline pilot. He and his buddy Danny Kohana (James Shigeta) go into the helicopter charter business together. But Rick's reckless flying and his careless flirting with local women may cost Rick the business and Danny his home. This tendency seems to get in the way of their secretary, Judy "Friday" Hudson (Suzanna Leigh) and Rick getting together.

Disaster looms as Danny becomes overdue on a flight after Rick has been grounded by government officials. Rick must decide if he should risk losing his license forever by going to look for his friend.

Cast

 * Elvis Presley as Rick Richards
 * Suzanna Leigh as Judy "Friday" Hudson
 * James Shigeta as Danny Kohana
 * Jan Shepard as Betty Kohana
 * Philip Ahn as Moki Kaimana
 * Donna Butterworth as Jan Kohana
 * Marianna Hill as Lani Kaimana
 * Irene Tsu as Pua
 * Linda Wong as Lehua Kawena
 * Julie Parrish as Joanna
 * Red West as fighter in bar (uncredited)
 * Grady Sutton as Mr. Cubberson

Production
Principal photography in Paradise, Hawaiian Style began in Hawaii on July 27, 1965 (with the working title of Hawaiian Paradise) and finished on September 29 in Los Angeles.

Major scenes in both Blue Hawaii (1961) and this film were shot on the island of Kauaʻi, with the Coco Palms Resort prominently featured. The famous resort was destroyed by Hurricane Iniki in 1992 and never rebuilt.

Some scenes were filmed above, at and around the Polynesian Cultural Center on O'ahu.

Around the official wrap on production, Elvis met Tom Jones, who visited the set, and The Beatles, who visited Elvis’ Bel Air home a few weeks after production was completed. Elvis was still the biggest singing star and top actor in the world at this time, with his salary for every film being a million dollars and half the profits which $1.25 million for Hawaiian Style. Elvis made $2.25 million from this film.

Reception
Released in June 1966, Paradise, Hawaiian Style, despite its "stunning aerial photography", "inspired a collective yawn" with film critics. The New York Times film reviewer Vincent Canby compared the film to the formulaic 1930s musicals that Bing Crosby used to star in, concluding that it was "all harmless and forgettable." Kevin Thomas of the Los Angeles Times called it "pleasant hot-weather diversion. Pretty much the usual Elvis Presley formula of songs and romance, this Paramount release ... has the added bonus of lush tropical scenery in color. And Elvis, as always, remains [a] relaxed, enjoyable entertainer."

Variety called the film "a gaily-begarbed and flowing musical," with the Hawaii setting seldom before having been "utilized to such lush advantage." The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote, "This is Elvis Presley right back in the old rut, parading his talents as a man of action while women swoon at his passage. The script is rather worse than routine, and the songs and choreography are undistinguished; which leaves very little but Wallace Kelley's colourful photography of the strictly tourist-eye view of the islands."
