The use of altitude training in Olympic cycle 2004-2008 (in the example of rowing)
Knapková, Miroslava ; Panuška, Přemysl (referee) ; Suchý, Jiří (advisor)
Title: The use of altitude training in Olympic cycle 2004-2008 (in the example of rowing) Aim: The operational objective of this work is to provide a summary of selected published information on the issue of altitude training, and its use in rowing. The main aim of this work will be the practical verification of the theory of recovery training at higher altitude, focusing on the example of rowing through the evaluation of biochemical analysis. Another aim will be to determine whether training at higher altitude might have positively affected the performance of rowers in the Olympic cycle 2004-2008. Methodology of work: Based on the knowledge gained from a literature review on the matter we are planning to organize training camps at altitude in the four-year Olympic cycle. According to those tasks and objectives each year in the annual cycle, we chose the suitability of training camp at altitude. During the training camp at altitude as we are use biochemical analysis to test the use of training at altitude in practice. The results: The results of monitoring the internal environment and the hematology using biochemici analysis showed that altitude is limiting for training. Nevertheless, altitude training can be used as a means of improving athletic performance at sea level, because adaptive changes...

Photochromic effect in nanoporous titanium dioxide film with Ag nanocrystals
Galář, Pavel ; Malý, Petr (advisor) ; Dohnalová, Kateřina (referee)
The diploma thesis is devoted to multicolour photochromic effect in nanocomposite material Ag-TiO2, which is caused by a spectrally selective photoinduced decrease in extinction. The Thesis introduces briefly the theory of particle plasmons which are of fundamental significance for the investigated phenomenon. A short summary of the models and results published on photochromic effect in Ag-TiO2 is than given. The core of thesis deals with the optimization of this nanocomposite material towards a high photochromatic response. The influence of concentration of the TiO2 solution and of the speed of its spin coating deposition on a substrate was measured. Also the effect of AgNO3 quality used for sample preparation was monitored. A change in the extinction was found to depend on parameters of the excitation laser beam too. As a part of the optimization process, also the alternative TiO2 matrixes produced on basis of lamellar micelles were tested. The photochromic effect was monitored by measurements of the light extinction and scattering in dependence on the sample photoexposition. The properties of a set of the high-quality samples were studied using photoluminescence spectroscopy. Measurements of the photoluminescence decay with subpicosecond time resolution by up-conversion technique as well as of the...

Putting Modern Czech Poetry to Music
Žárská, Marie ; Mocná, Dagmar (referee) ; Peterka, Josef (advisor)
The topič of the dissertation "Putting Modern Czech Poetry to Music" is divided into three parts. The aesthetic horizon illustrates that relation between poetry and music makes a fruitful theme in Europe ever since antiquity. Relation between poetry and music served as a subject of various studies and a topič of professional discussions in the 20th century. We consider the works of O. Zich, R. Wellek and A. Sychra the most useful scientifíc publications for the subject matter. Relation between poetry and music formed the subject of a dissertation written in 1989 primarily dealing with a melodiousness of poetry and the poetry in the 19th century. The book "Sung Poetry" of V. Merta enables us to look at poetry and at the process of putting it to music from the pcrspective of a musician. The heuristic part registers the poems put in music published on audio dises between November 1989 and September 2008. The list is made up for future use in educational practice, and contains 251 poems. The list itself is preceded by the chapter "Material and Methodological Procedures" that deseribes primarily the process of making up the list, and specifíes its use, with comments on narrowing the selection. The third part incorporates an interpretation of the selected poems and a comparison of the poems that attracted...

Marketing and RFID
Rožek, Jan ; Štědroň, Bohumír (advisor) ; Malý, Václav (referee)
This work dissertates about possible usages of the RFID technology in marketing mix. The beginning part describes the history and functional side of the technology and shows the leading companies in this field. The application part shows the possible usage at the ground of the quality control and retail marketing with the theory of the dynamic created price on the basis of the time. Special part is about the implementation of the technology to the promotion part of the marketing mix. RFID is described as a source of client's data for large clients databases which are used for the personalized offer special for each customer. The conclusion describes the legislative barriers and focus on the future of the technology together with the prediction of the tag price. The insertion creates the The Working Party on the Protection of Personal Data, which Cohere with the RFID Technology published by independent working party in the European parliament.

CLIL in theory and practice
Gablasová, Dana ; Malá, Markéta (referee) ; Mothejzíková, Jarmila (advisor)
With the natural globalisation processes underway, various forms of bilingual (or multilingual) education have enjoyed growing attention. In Europe, with the strengthening political and cultural integration, the innovations in language education are in focus of not only language professionals but also of political decision-makers. The practical need to enhance the 'plurilingualism' of the EU citizens, an intention formulated in the White Paper on Education and Training from 1995, can be seen as a clear impetus for the increased interest in the foreign language curriculum. The Paper proposed that, gradually, each European citizen should be able to use also two community languages other than his/her mother tongue (known as the "MT+2" plan) (White Paper on Education and Training, 1995). This aspiration also reflects the shift in understanding of knowledge of more than one language as a privilege of the elites (be it economical, intellectual or other elites) to be received at special schools or via special programmes. Instead, this education should extend to include ordinary citizens. However, it could be argued "that contemporary languages education has often failed to provide platforms for learning which suit a broad range of people, young and older" (Marsh, 2003: 3). As a result, the traditional approach to...

Press that serves the public? Survey of journals published by Prague's municipalities
Písačková, Kateřina ; Hájek, Roman (advisor) ; Krobová, Tereza (referee)
This master thesis deals with the phenomenon of journals published by local municipalities, defined in a recent amendment to the Press Act in the legal order of the Czech Republic as "journals of territorial administrative units". According to the press law the purpose of these journals is to deliver information about the self- governing unit while providing adequate space for presenting opinions and views of all ideological spectrum of the local council. These journals were recently criticized for being abused by the ruling political representation and being misused as a form of political PR rather than an independent news platform. My research is focused on their gradual professionalization that was recently encouraged by the changes in the Czech law. The research is based on a survey of editors of these journals. In the survey I investigated the background of the content production of these journals, various aspects of their organization, details about staff editors and their reflection on the topic, as well as control mechanisms that are set to ensure the statutory requirements of objectivity and impartiality. In addition to the survey, I also present a brief case study of the Hobulet magazine, published in the Prague 7 district, which is considered to be a progressive example of the genre. The...
