	retired religious
		Fialka, a member of St. John Parish in McLean, has spent the majority of his career reporting on economics and war, but he has also found himself a niche in reporting and writing about Catholic religious women in America.
		Fialka has always made it a point to sit with the sisters and listen to their stories — where they came from, what they do, who they are.
		Until Fialka’s story in 1986, he had not written any stories related to religion and he said he "never intended to." He was covering the Pentagon and the Cold War when he stumbled upon the story on nuns.

	Fialka - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Fialka contains a five-level paper tape reader on the right hand side at the front of the machine, and a paper tape punch and tape printing mechanism on top.
		The Fialka rotor assembly has 10 rotors mounted on an axle and a 30 by 30 commutator (Kc 30x30).
		The Fialka design seems to derive from the Swiss NEMA, but the NEMA only has 5 electrical rotors vs. the Fialka's 10 and NEMA lacks a punch card commutator or an equivalent, such as a plug board.

	Fialka - Definition, explanation

		Fialka seems most comparable to the U.S. KL-7 has eight electrical rotors and also lacks a commutator, but its keyboard permutor switch eliminated the need for a reflector, which proved to be a weakness in Enigma.

	Metcalf Institute Public Lecture Series Speakers
		In his lecture, John Fialka, the energy and environment reporter for the Wall Street Journal, was engaging and informative, involving the audience in his explanation of complexities of environmental economics.
		Fialka scribbled on one piece of paper, handing it to an audience member, and asked again if the paper had value.
		Fialka scribbled on the second piece of paper, which read, "This allows you to emit one ton of pollution." As the audience laughed, Fialka explained the significance of what they had just witnessed -- he had just created something out of nothing, a negotiable instrument, he said.

	Sisters
		In his engaging, fascinating and easily digestible new book, Fialka, a Wall Street Journal reporter, brings us a wealth of marvelous stories and a strong argument for the essential role religious women played in, not only the Church’s history, but in the life of the country in general.
		Because there are so many religious orders, Fialka chooses to tell the story primarily through the history of the Sisters of Mercy, founded in Ireland by Catherine McAuley and brought to the United States at the invitation of Bishop Michael O’Connor of Pittsburgh in 1844.
		Fialka makes it clear that the Mercies were not the only high-achieving religious order, but their size (over 9,000 by 1929) makes them an excellent prism through which to reflect the experiences of religious women in the United States.

	SEJ '97-Tucson-Oct. 2-Desert Museum
		Fialka joined an estimated 200 other members of the society in touring the museum on the outskirts of Tucson to see at first hand the desert’s sentinel-like saguaro cactus and other unique vegetation and wildlife, including the fleet-footed road runner, cactus wren and the porker-like javalina.
		Fialka said global warming is the “hottest story“on the environmental beat with predictions that temperatures will rise significantly in the next century.
		Fialka said that the challenge in covering the global warming story is that it is a complex issue, which deals with climate changes.

		Front of Fialka with the lid open, exposing the rotors Early versions of the Fialka were introduced as early as 1965, and it was used as late as the early 1990s.
		The Fialka is similar in some ways to the German Enigma and the Swiss NEMA machine.
		Fialka decrypted text (including my typo!) This is an amazing feature, and surely would have reduced the transmission error rate in addition to reducing the time to decrypt a message.

	Spring Books: The sisters who built America
		Fialka’s chapters on the late 20th century are of special interest in the light of the state of religious life today.
		Fialka, as well as others whom he quotes, looks to the council as the source of the decline in religious orders.
		The book’s strength is Fialka’s ability to put flesh and blood into the accounts of the lives and work of sisters and to show through these lives the immense contribution of the sisters to American society.

		FIALKA: I'm--I'm not sure that ever came to fruition, but one--one of the things that Senator Packwood--the then-Senator Packwood--wanted was something that would get his wife's alimony off his back, and one of them would be a job that would support her.

	Hotel Warriors: Covering the Gulf War (Woodrow Wilson Center Press)
		This small volume documents the trials and tribulations of FIalka and other members of the press corps dealing with the military, which in most respects was wary of the press, based on experiences lingering from Vietnam.
		However, Fialka has more criticisms...his own peers in the press share an equal blame in his eyes, based on the way they handled themselves within the press pool, frequently trying to one up the other.
		Fialka does have some positive things to say: his praise for the Marine Corp's ability to handle the press stands in stark contrast to that of the US Army.

		In this action-filled journey through tomorrow's headlines, John Fialka, award-winning investigative reporter for the Wall Street Journal, reveals a secret war that threatens the economic security of the United States and the livelihood of millions of American citizens.
		The techno-thieves have many tools, but their principal weapon is the openness of our society, and the defenders are hobbled by witnesses too embarrassed to complain, as well as by laws aimed at nineteenth-century threats.
		Fialka's incisive reporting and trenchant analysis expose an attack on the American economy so deadly as to constitute a time-lapse Pearl Harbor; his book outlines the hard choices we must make if we are to survive.

		The Fialka is generally similar in design to the German Enigma cipher machine but it has 10 rotors with 30 Russian characters/contacts instead of the 3 or 4 rotors with 26 letters/numbers/contacts in the German WW-2 Enigmas.
		The first version of the Fialka, the M-100 was produced in the 1930s and it was followed by the M-105 and then the M-125 models described here.
		The Fialka rotates each of its 10 rotors in a direction that is opposite to that of each neighboring rotor.

		Since the PXL camera was intended for children, it enables one to pursue that often desired childlike innocence in the creative process, that yearning for youthful dreams.
		Through Fialka's study of FINNEGANS WAKE (jesgrew.org/wake/), he uncovers a connection with PXL and James Joyce, who often realized epiphanies out of the ordinary, common, everyday occurences.

		Fialka reports, "After more than a century of steady growth, between 1965 and 1980, 50,000 nuns-30 percent of the sisters in the United States-departed from religious life."
