Essentials and passibilities of compensative aid - guede dog
PILZOVÁ, Jana
Loss of vision or a severe sight injury means a very significant change in the life of the affected person. Compensatory aids play in important part in incorporating thus handicapped people into all varieties of social life. Nowadays people with serious sight handicap can choose from many compensatory aids, optical and non-optical ones. A guiding dog is one of many possible compensations of visual defect or seriously injured eyesight. For a guiding dog to become an approved compensatory aid according to Act n. 100/1998 Sb. further specified by regulation 182/1991 Sb. two basic conditions must be fulfilled. Firstly, the dog must pass a special training with a final test and secondly the applicant must be eligible to using a dog as a compensatory aid. The paper aims at providing an illustrative outline of the most typical situations concerning owners of guiding dogs in South Bohemia. During the research the author encountered many difficulties. One of which was the lack of unity of provided services by individual organizations dealing with training of guiding dogs. The greatest differences occurred in the service when handing over the dog (the extant and details concerning documentation of the dog, the health card, the extant of information for the future owner) and in the following service when a problem arises. To fulfill the aim of the present paper a Form for semidirected interview was created, which contains 4 fields (identification data, acquisition, possession and the use of the guiding dog). The semi directed interviews were aimed at the owners of the guiding dogs. There are 27 guiding dogs in South Bohemia. The greatest number of guiding dogs is in the district of Jindřichův Hradec. The author presumes that this paper will help potential clients to orientate themselves in claiming a compensatory aid-the guiding dog. The paper is further conducted as an orientation aid for administration workers of municipal authorities with extended powers.

Bohumil Snizek´s combat mission. From the Protectorate and back to the Czechoslovakia (5th May 1942 - 20th May 1945)
HOLENKA, Zdeněk
In my thesis I deal with the personality and life of Bohumil Snížek. He was one of those who did not reconcile themselves to the fascist Germany occupation of Czechoslovakia. Bohumil Snížek decided to take part actively in the restoration of his motherland. The circumstances compelled him to undertake a long journey through all Europe whose final destination was Great Britain. After a dramatic stay in Switzerland at Dr. Kopecky´s place and imprisonment in the concentration camp Miranda de Ebro he really managed to achieve his final destination via Gibraltar. It took him nearly one and half years. He joined there the newly being born Czechoslovak Foreign Army. He went to the Czechoslovak brigade which was trained for the fight with the enemy from its very establishment. Yet, the Czechoslovak brigade was not provided with the possibility of at least a little intervention in fighting for the liberation of Europe. Bohumil Snížek was detached to Europe by the end of the September 1944 together with the 2nd Armoured Regiment Czechoslovak Brigade. It was the time of the siege of a French port Dunkerque which was considered the battlefield of the second rank by the Czech soldiers. There was an attack on 28th October 1944 planned for the anniversary of the establishment of Czechoslovakia which became the greatest success of the Czech Army in combat. Bohumil Snížek also took part in this battle and was awarded the Czechoslovak Military Cross for his personal bravery. The Czechoslovaks would not mind that they did not manifest themselves in combat after this great success anymore but what they did mind was to connive helplessly at the events happening in Prag in May 1945. Along with the others, Bohumil Snížek came to the liberated Czechoslovakia in the middle of May 1945. His postwar destiny was quite similar to the destiny of the rest of "those from the West". The regime condemned him "only" to be rolled over by the waters of oblivion. Essentially, only his withdrawal from the Army and departure for the West borderland might have rescued him from even severer sanctions. Bohumil Snížek died of the sequel of injuries from Dunkerque in Aš 1959.

Expertní detekce příchodu signálu AE
Chlada, Milan
Accurate acoustic emission (AE) source location is the primary goal of the defect anylysis following the AE signal detection. The source localization is mostly based on arrival time differences of signals recorded by several transducers. Considerable signal distortion happens during the wave propagation through the solid. Inaccurate determination of signal onset and arrival time differences respectively, are the greatest sources of localization errors.Especially, in a case of figher requirements on accuracy and robustness, the results of currently used localization methods appear to be insufficient. In the paper, recently improved version of the new signal-shape based algorithm, modelling an expert system of the elastic wave arrival detection, is introduced. In many applications, this method, based on signal energy and local gravity center evolution, has been proved as rugged enough, fast and easily applicable.

KAREL HUGO HILAR (1885-1935). Among the theatre, politics and intrigue
ZELENKOVÁ, Magdalena
The thesis introduces a little-known personality at the turn of the 19th and 20th century ? theatre director, critic and theorist Karel Hugo Hilar. On the grounds of the archival resources, which have not been entirely used to date, the work reconstructs Hilar´s professional and personal life to bring a completely new and more comprehensive view of Hilar´s figure. This thesis is divided into three parts. The first section deals with Hilar´s maturing in the context of the time and maps the most significant moments that influenced his life. The second part is composed of his professional career, mainly his impact on two most important Prague theatre scenes. This passage highlights his successes and failures to effort a modern conception of the theatre. The last chapter presents the commemorative events organized after Hilar´s death and it portrays Hilar´s image created on the basis of narratives coming out after his decease in many memoirs of his fellow people.

Formation du syst?me politique français par le biais de l´élection du Président de la République au suffrage universel direct
Vojnár, Štěpán ; Nechvátal, Martin (advisor) ; Peterková, Jana (referee)
Přestože patří Francie mezi země s vysokou mírou politické stability, je členem nejdůležitějších mezinárodních organizací, ve kterých mnohdy zaujímá klíčové postavení (OSN, EU), její politický vývoj byl vždy pestrý a v mnoha ohledech i dynamický. Tato komplexnost francouzského politického systému vedla autora k vymezení podtématu, s jehož pomocí se tento systém pokusil rozebrat. Cílem práce je charakterizovat a na konkrétních příkladech ilustrovat, jakou roli mělo zavedení přímé volby prezidenta republiky v roce 1962 na politický systém V. republiky v teoretických i praktických rysech. V závěru práce autor hodnotí minulé prezidentské volby a pokouší se nastínit možnou budoucí orientaci francouzského politického systému.

Long-term care for the elderly from the perspective of nursing
PAVLÍKOVÁ, Hana
Long-term care for the elderly people is a widely discussed topic in recent years not only among health professionals but also by the general public. And it will not change in the future. According to the Czech Statistical Office (2012) in 2050, the population aged over 65 will double and the population older than 85 years even quintuple. This work deals with long-term care for the elderly from the perspective of nursing, for the current demographic trends affect it significantly. Long-term hospitalization of the elderly in medical facilities is linked to many complications, not only physiological, but also psychological, social and spiritual. The aim of the thesis entitled "Long-term care for the elderly in nursing perspective" was to find out what the nurses in long-term care for seniors consider as the greatest problems, if they would welcome a change in competences in long-term care for the elderly, and to obtain an opinion about the long-term institutional care and long-term home care. Individual opinions of nurses from different departments were compared; what kind of solution to the current problems of long-term care for the elderly the nurses propose themselves. Objective 1: Find out what the sisters find as the most crucial problem in long-term care for seniors. Objective 2: Determine whether nurses feel the necessity for change in nursing competences in the management of long-term ill elderly. Goal 3: Find out what is the opinion of nurses about long-term institutional care for the elderly compared to long-term community care at home. The main research question based on the research problem and the research objectives was defined as follows: What is the prospect of long-term care for the elderly in terms of nursing? I decided for an exploratory approach. I was looking for another connection to general research question and examined them in depth. I decomposed this relatively broad topic covered by the research questions into several specific questions: 1. Will it be necessary to make additional changes in financing long-term care, due to a growing demographic age of the population increases? 2. Could nurses in long-term care for the elderly take over certain powers previously belonging to doctors? 3. Will the importance of providing nursing care long-term ill seniors at home increase? 4 Should be a long-term care for the elderly moved out of hospitals to specialized facilities? 5. Will it be necessary to increase the number of health care facilities with the focus on long-term care because of the growing number of senior citizens? 6. In connection with the increasing number of hospitalized elderly, will medical facilities have enough of gadgets? For the research was chosen a qualitative interview method. Nurses from various departments were interviewed and the outcomes were processed using the content analysis. Sisters? perspective on a long-term nursing care for elderly is: closer connection of health and social services, to increase quality of care, to strengthen the autonomy of elderly, dignified care for the elderly, increased use of home care and informing the general public about it, streamlining communication with seniors and their families, safer environment and to increase the motivation of nurses to provide the highest quality of nursing care.
