There are tastes which are forgotten after the first sip. And others of which you discover you can’t make without. So is Mattoni.A seduction which grows sip after sip. A unique taste, but harmonious, which is born from the balance of Carlsbad minerals.And was chosen for its refinement by International Bartenders Association. Without compromises, without equals, without alternatives.Always on the most refined tables in the world. Mattoni Water, because sometimes perfection may become a vice.

Where there’s life

there’s Mattoni.

A Unique Baroque TheatreTHE BAROQUE THEATRE IN THE CASTLE OF !ESK" KRUMLOV, established in the 1680s, is among the most unique theatres in the world. While other Baroque-style theatres in the world were subject to fashion trends and reconstructions, the theatre in Krumlov remained suspended as it had been left in 1767.

This year, for the fifth time running, Czech Airlines were awarded

“Best Airline based in Central/Eastern Europe”. This prestigious

prize is awarded annually by the international airline organization’s

Official Airline Guide (OAG), based on the voting of industry

professionals. Czech Airlines President and Chairman of the

Board of Directors, Mr Radomír La%ák, commented: “We really

do appreciate this prestigious award from the professional public.

The fact that Czech Airlines have won it for five consecutive years

confirms the prominent position of Czech Airlines in Central

and Eastern European markets.” (Pictured is Du%an Ryban,

On 6th October, it will be 85 years since Czech National Airlines were founded in 1923. The first airline flight from Prague to Bratislava

took place on 29th October, 1923. The Chief Pilot on the flight, Karel Brabenec, completed the distance of 321 km in an Aero A-14

Brandenburg. This feat places the company among the oldest airlines in Europe. To date, Czech Airlines have accrued a lot of

experience and can also pride themselves on a range of prestigious awards for service quality, e.g. TTG technical magazine awarded

them the accolade of “Best Airline Company” eight times and, according to international airline guide OAG in London, they have also

won the “OAG Airline of the Year” award for the fifth time this year.

JAK MARKÉTA IRGLOVÁ, neznámá dívka z moravské-ho m'sta, dobyla Hollywood a získala Oscara tím, (e hrála ve fi lmu lásku, která pak p#i%la doopravdy.

THIS IS THE REMARKABLE STORY OF MARKÉTA IRG-LOVÁ, an unknown girl from a small Moravian town, who conquered Hollywood and scooped an Oscar; acting out a love affair in fi lm that came true in real life.

Za v%echno m!(ou víly

The Fairies Are to Blame!

Text: Vladimír +t'dr$ / Foto: Wire IMAGE, "TK

Vid"ly ji stamiliony lidí, dostala se na sam# vrchol a re$isér Steven Spielberg o ní !ekl,

$e je jeho múzou. Je%t" p!ed rokem v%ak tahle dívka snila maximáln" o tom, $e bude n"-

kde rozná%et kávu.

Kdybyste ji potkali na ulici, ne#ekli byste do té oby&ejné dívky, (e je v historii Hollywoo-

du t#etí nejmlad%í dr(itelkou pozlacené so%ky, kv!li ní( trávily bezesné noci nejv't%í hv'z-

dy st#íbrného plátna. Ona spala dob#e. Asi proto, (e mo(nost získat Oscara ji vlastn' ni-

kdy nenapadla. Kdy( te- jde Markéta Irglová, devatenáctiletá dívka z moravského m'sta

Vala%ské Mezi#í&í, po ulici v New Yorku, zastavují ji lidé a prosí o podpis. Hugh Jackman jí

nabídl roli v seriálu. Matthew Perry s Jennifer Aniston jí poslali sladkosti. Jim Carrey na ni

nad%en' volal, (e vid'l její fi lm dvakrát a moc se mu líbil. Steven Spielberg o n'm prohlá-

sil, (e mu dal inspiraci na rok dop#edu.

.ádná st#edo%kola&ka z malého m'sta tak daleko od Hollywoodu asi nikdy neud'lala ta-

kov$ skok. Markéta Irglová je%t' p#ed rokem byla na gymnáziu. Po ka(dém turné musela

ve %kole v(dy v%echno dohán't. Zdálo se jí to hektické, tak se rozhodla, (e po maturit' si

ud'lá rok volna, aby p#em$%lela, co dál. Cht'la vzít práci v kavárn' s tím, (e za rok jí do-

jde, co chce vlastn' v (ivot' d'lat. Jen(e osud ji poslal jinou cestou. V$hybka v%ak zm'ni-

la sm'r mnohem d#ív. Kdy( hrála Markéta Irglová p#ed %esti lety na klavír v základní um'-

lecké %kole a zpívala ve sboru, ani v nejmen%ím nemohla tu%it, (e se u( brzy spustí rychl$

sled událostí a náhod, kter$ jí p#evrátí (ivot naruby. Nejd!le(it'j%ím momentem bylo setká-

ní s irsk$m hudebníkem Hansardem, jen( v roce 2001 vyrazil na turné po "eské republi-

ce. Zastavil se také ve Vala%ském Mezi#í&í.

Hundreds of millions of people saw

her, her profile became stratospheric

– Steven Spielberg even called her his

Muse. Quite a shift in perspective for

a girl who only a year ago could only

imagine herself serving coffee or working

in a pub!

To meet her on the street, you would never

have guessed that this ordinary 19 year-

old girl from Vala%ské Mezi&í'í is the third

youngest winner of an Oscar; a prize that still

eludes some of the greatest movie stars.

No sleepless nights for Irglová though;

probably because the possibility of winning

never really crossed her mind. Today,

when she walks down the street in New

York, people stop her and ask her for her

autograph. Hugh Jackman has offered her

a role in a TV serial, Matthew Perry and

Jennifer Aniston sent her sweets and Jim

Carrey shouted to her that he had seen her

fi lm twice and loved it. Steven Spielberg

also claimed that the movie had inspired

him for the coming year. No high school

student from a small town

so far away (in so many

ways) from Hollywood has

Do m'sta Hansarda a jeho skupinu The Frames nap!l náhodou pozval Markétin otec Ma-

rek, p!vodn' u&itel, pak vydavatel místních novin. Uspo#ádal na p#ivítanou zahradní party.

U táboráku sed'la tehdy t#ináctiletá dív&ina, která m'la doma cédé&ko Frames a nesty-

d'la se si s nimi zazpívat. Líbilo se to. A to byl první odraz na cest' k úsp'chu.

Byl to zvlá%tní ve&er. Muzikant! bylo deset a #ádili tak, (e otec Irgl m'l obavu, aby si sou-

sedé nest'(ovali.

Druh$ den hrála kapela v místní sokolovn' a charismatick$ ry%av$ Ir si vytáhl Markétu

na pódium. Po(ádal ji, a) si s ním st#ihne jednu píse*. St#ihla ji asi dob#e, proto(e od té

doby, kdy( se Frames objevili poblí( ("esko si toti( oblíbili a vraceli se docela &asto), ji ni-

kdy neopomn'li vzít s sebou.

Markét' se to také líbilo. „Byla jsem (ákyn' hudební %koly... A p#ijel bohém, jeho( hud-

bu jsem poslouchala z cédé&ek. Kdy( dorazil Glen se svou partou, bylo to, jako kdy( p#i-

jel cirkus.“

probably made such a leap before. A year

ago, Markéta Irglová was still studying

at high school and had to catch up with

her fellow students after every tour. She

found it hectic and decided to take a year

off after her school-leaving exams to think

about what to do next. She planned to get

a job in a café somewhere and take a year

to think through what she really wanted to

do with her life. Fate clearly had different

plans for her... The fi rst and most important

of these was meeting the Irish musician

Glen Hansard, who was touring the Czech

Republic in 2001. One of his stops was in

Vala%ské Mezi&í'í.

It was Markéta’s father Marek, a former

teacher and local newspaper publisher,

who invited Hansard and his band The

Frames to town. It was all rather low-key

and he organised a welcoming garden

party. The thirteen-year old Markéta (who

had a Frames CD) was sitting by the fi re

and was not embarrassed to sing along. It

went down well – and it was the fi rst page

in her success story.

It was a night to remember – there were ten

musicians and they had such a good time

that her father was worried the neighbours

would complain.

The following day, the band was playing

in the local Hall and the charismatic red-

haired Irishman asked Markéta on to the

stage to sing along.

Apparently, she did well, as any time The

Frames went back to Czech (they got to

like the Czech Republic and they used

to come back quite often), they always

remembered to take her along.

Markéta enjoyed it, too: “I was a music

school pupil… and this bohemian came,

HERS IS A CINDERELLA STORY, AND HER IMAGE IS FRAGILE AND VULNERABLE. SHE LOOKS UNOBTRUSIVE – EVEN WITH AN OSCAR IN HER HAND.

who I knew from the CDs I listened to.

When Glen and his party arrived, it was as

if the circus had come to town.”

Gradually, a story reminiscent of a Holly-

wood romance unfolded, featuring all the

necessary elements: success, love, hard

work, modesty and the courage to follow

your dreams.

As Markéta said when she was receiving her

Oscar: “The fact that we are standing here

today and holding this statuette is a proof

that, no matter how big your dreams, they

can come true. It is fair to all of those with

courage to dream and those who don’t give

up.” And that’s exactly what happened.

GREAT SUCCESS AND A GREAT LOVE

AFFAIR

In 2004, Markéta set off to Ireland for

a couple of concerts with Glen. “The way

things were happening was always a bit

accidental,” she said later.

You would never have guessed the

Hollywood elite were taking her seriously;

Al Gore even discussed global warming

with her! “I decided to stay in Ireland for

a few days so I didn’t have to travel

A pak se to postupn' rozbíhalo jako v hollywoodské romanci, kde nechybí úsp'ch ani

láska, ale také pracovitost, skromnost a odvaha jít si za sv$m. P#esn' jak to Markéta Irg-

lová #ekla, kdy( p#ebírala Oscara: „Skute&nost, (e tu dnes stojíme a (e v ruce dr(íme tu-

hle so%ku, je dokladem toho, (e jakkoli velké máte sny, jsou mo(né. Je to spravedlivé v!&i

v%em, kdo mají odvahu snít a nevzdávají to.“ Doslova takhle to bylo.

VELK! ÚSP"CH, VELKÁ LÁSKA

V roce 2004 vyrazila Markéta s Glenem na pár koncert! do Irska. „V(dycky se v%echno

událo tak n'jak náhodou,“ #ekla pozd'ji nenápadná, tichá dívka. Rozhodn' byste do ní

ne#ekli, (e ji bere vá(n' hollywoodská smetánka a o globálním oteplování s ní debatu-

je Al Gore. „Abych se hned nemusela harcovat dom!, pár dní jsem z!stala v Irsku. Glen

m'l zrovna vyrazit do USA na pár sólov$ch koncert!. M'l u( zamluvenou letenku, v%ech-

no. Dva dny p#edtím jsme hráli a on, (e by bylo super, kdyby tam m'l klavír a kdybych jela

s ním, jestli to n'jak neud'láme.“

Proto(e Glen p#i sv$ch vyjí(-kách do "eska pobyl v(dy pár dní p#ímo u Irglov$ch a byl u(

n'co jako p#ítel rodiny, rodi&e %estnáctiletou dceru bez problém! pustili. Navíc um'la jako

v%ichni v rodin' dob#e anglicky, u&ila se u( od t#í let.

Mezitím také hrála na cello a na kytaru a skládala vlastní skladby. Pak ji Glen odve-

zl do sv'ta a stal se jí u&itelem, kamarádem a taky trochu tátou. „Jednou se nám ozva-

la z Japonska, jindy z Koreje, pak z Kalifornie,“ vzpomínala na tu dobu její babi&ka, která jí

na cesty dala prst$nek pro %t'stí.

Na otázku, jak se p#ihodí, (e si sv'tem prot#el$ muzikant vybere ke spolupráci %kola&ku

z Vala%ského Mezi#í&í, Markéta listu Lidové noviny odv'tila, (e Glenovi se zalíbil doprovod

klavíru a její zp'v.

Ale mo(ná %lo o n'co víc. Kdy( dívka dosp'la, nato&ili spolu oscarov$ fi lm – a zamilova-

li se do sebe.

„Miloval jsem ji u( dlouho, ale stále jsem sám sebe p#esv'd&oval, (e je teprve dít',“ #ekl

potom Glen Hansard. Pochází toti( z p#ísn' katolické rodiny, kde v'rnost i láska mají svá

p#ísná pravidla. „Ná% vztah s Markétou si v(dycky p#edstavuju jako ve Felliniho fi lmu Sil-

nice. Jak p#ijde silák a #ekne dívce: Poj-, uká(u ti (ivot. Dívka se k n'mu p#idá a stane se

tak trochu jeho druh$m já.“

A o tom byl i jejich fi lm Once. Byl to vlastn' jejich p#íb'h. Náhodou se potkali na cest'.

Takhle se potkávají denn' miliony lidí. A nic se nestane. Nic nesepne, jiskra nep#esko&í.

Ale n'kdy ano. Zrodí se láska, nebo dílo. Nebo obojí.

Tak tomu je i ve fi lmu. Jde o prost$ p#íb'h pouli&ního muzikanta a opravá#e vysava&!,

kter$ sní o profesionální dráze, a prodava&ky kv'tin, je( se od v%edních starostí uchylu-

je k pianu. Jednou ve&er se náhodou potkají na ulici v Dublinu. V dal%ích dnech se

home. Glen was about to set off for the

U.S.A. for a couple of solo concerts. His

flight ticket and everything was already

booked. We played for the two previous

days and he suggested it would be great if

he had a piano at his concerts and whether

I couldn’t come along.”

On his trips to the Czech Republic, Glen

always used to stay with the Irgl family

for a couple of days and became a true

family friend; it wasn’t therefore diffi cult

for the parents to let their sixteen-year old

daughter go with him. What’s more, she

could speak good English like the rest of

the family, as she had learnt from the age

of three.

In the meantime, she also played the cello

and the guitar and she was composing

tracks of her own. Then Glen took her out

into the big wide world and became her

teacher, friend and a surrogate father. “One

day, she called us from Japan, on other

times from Korea or California,” remembers

her gran who had given her a lucky ring for

her journey. There was always perhaps the

potential for something more...

When Markéta matured, they made an

Oscar winning movie together – and fell

in love in the process. “I have loved her

for a long time, but I kept convincing

myself that she was still a child,” said Glen

Hansard later.

He comes from a strictly catholic family,

where fi delity and love are bound by strict

rules. “Our relationship with Markéta

reminds me of that in Fellini’s La Strada,

where the strong man comes and says to

the girl ‘Come and I’ll show you life’. The

girl joins him and becomes his second

self.”

That’s what their fi lm Once is about – it is

their own story made into a movie. They

meet accidentally on a journey, in the same

way that millions of people meet every day.

Most times, nothing happens, there is

ve fi lmu hrají, ale Oscara dostali za píse* Falling Slowly, která je úst#ední melodií. Je jed-

no sparkle, no chemistry. But sometimes,

it does happen and true love blossoms – or

a true Piece. Sometimes both.

This is what happens in the movie: it

is a simple story of a street musician

and vacuum repairman who dreams of

becoming a professional musician, and of

a fl ower- girl who fi nds solace from her daily

worries at her piano. One evening, they

meet accidentally on the street of Dublin.

In the days that follow, they walk, talk,

sing, play and start recording a demo. His

heart has just been broken and he’s hoping

that their encounter might grow into love.

She, a Czech immigrant, is looking after

her daughter and she has a husband back

in the Czech Republic.

The best description of their relationship

is in the scene where he asks: “Do you love

him? How is it in Czech?” – “Miluje% ho?”–

“So, miluje% ho?” – “Miluju tebe.” – “What

does it mean?”– “Nothing, let’s go.” Great

music, a touching story and real chemistry

between the two protagonists turned this

movie into a real hit with cinema goers and

critics alike. “You will be fl oating on air,”

wrote The Boston Globe.

Perhaps the fi lm’s effectiveness lies in its

being true to life; you don’t need to be

a psychologist to spot the emotional charge

crackling between the two actors. “When

the movie was shot, Glen and I weren’t

partners yet. Our relationship only came

after the shooting,” said Irglová.

They both act in the fi lm, but they actually

won their Oscar for the song Falling Slowly,

the theme music of the movie. It is simple,

even primitive, but that’s what’s so beautiful

about it – just like love itself.

Apparently this whole thing is the work of

the Fairies, the Irish fairies that she often

escapes with in her imagination.

V zemi fjord!

In the Land of the Fjords

Text: Vladimír +t'dr$ / Foto: Getty Images, Terje Rakke (Nordic Life/Fjord Norway)

IT FEELS LIKE A TEMPLE IN THE OPEN AIR. You almost expect that, at any moment, an angry Nordic god will appear from behind a rock and carve another fjord from the very stones.


Stáli jsme na ploché skále, vítr jemn' pofukoval a my jsme se opatrn' naklán'li p#es

okraj, kter$ padal %est set metr! dol!, a( k hladin'.

cestuje fjordy. V$hled je úchvatn$. Skály mají ledovcem uhlazená temena dokulata, tak(e

p#ipomínají americké Badlands. Jsou #ídce porostlé stromy, ale na tu dálku to vypadá jako

mech. Vzduch je pr!zra&n$ a seversky &erstv$, slunce kupodivu docela teplé a dálky ne-

dozírné.

We stood on a flat rock, the wind blew

gently and we cautiously peered over the

edge – a sheer drop of six hundred meters

to the water below.

Now you know what ants see when they

look down stairs! This place is called

Preikestolen, meaning “Pulpit”, and

everybody who travels through the fjords in

Norway comes here to experience the sense

of vertigo this massive cliff produces. The

view from this rocky platform is beautiful;

the tops of the hills have been ground down

by glaciers, reminiscent of The Badlands

in the United States, and they are covered

by a sprinkling of low trees that seem like

lichen from this distance. The air is crisp

and crystal clear. The sun is surprisingly

warm and the azure skies, vaulting and

open above us, seem infinite.

UNTO VALHALLA

There are other beautiful nice fjords; take

Sognefjord, for instance – it is also called

“King’s Fjord” as the Norwegian successor

to the throne comes here to fish. Another

reason for the name is that it is the largest

in Norway. Hideous depths lurk in these

dark waters with the sea bed lying some

1200 metres below the surface.

The fjord cuts almost two hundred

kilometres inland and when our ship

steered into some of the side fjords,

which are in fact quite independent, you

get the impression of being tested for

claustrophobia. The cliffs are so impossibly

high and so close that there is a tangible

sense of enclosure, of being locked within

the landscape itself.

The landscape is beautiful and deserted.

You look around in wonder, knowing that

Valhalla is near at hand, the hall where

heroes and gods feast before the final battle

and the end of the world.

You fear that at any moment a Viking

“drakkar” may glide out from the mists, full

of merciless conquerors. Instead, you might

come across a thousand-year-old wooden

church, six storeys high, resembling in

shape a Viking helmet. Or, more frequently,

you’ll find a herd of goats with bells round

their necks.

The secrets of the hundreds of fjords,

cutting into the Norwegian shores like

wrinkles in her skin, are made more

tantalising yet by the colourful houses

of the locals. Many people come here to

breathe deeply and experience one of

the most beautiful countries in Europe, a

landscape so sparsely populated that it just

swallows up crowds without trace. They

come on foot, sail on ships, ride on bikes

and some of them have really peculiar

hobbies; André Bach is a former Norwegian

gymnastics champion, now he does

his somersaults and handstands beside the

cliffs – before plunging into the abyss with

a parachute strapped to his back. He flies

like a colourful bat, sometimes just two

metres from the cliff wall, landing on the

narrow band of land between sea and rock

so that tourists emerging from one of the

many tunnels think they’ve stumbled upon

a troll. We have come across salmons. We

had them for meal and we were fishing for

them, too.

A GOOD CATCH? ALMOST GUARANTEED

Norwegian fjords are a fisherman’s paradise

teeming with cod, mackerel, sea trout,

wolf-fish, sea-devils and of course the

king of fish, the wild salmon. You’d have

to search high and low for a better place

to fish: a shack perched on a steep slope,

its pillars washed by the sea. The views

open out across the fjord to ragged rocks

dusted with snow and the midnight sun

gleaming on the dark waters. And

Samoz#ejm'. Vypadá to tady jako na oby&ejném jeze#e, ale je to severská divo&ina. Nor-

sko je zem' s nejslo(it'j%í p#edpov'dí po&así, která vám stejn' není k ni&emu, proto(e

za první zatá&kou je v%echno jinak. „Máme dv' ro&ní období,“ #íkají Norové. „Bílou zimu

a zelenou zimu.“ Jeden místní mi s úsm'vem #ekl: „Není %patné po&así, m!(eme b$t

jen %patn' oble&eni.“ Ale skute&nost je lep%í, ne( byste si mysleli. Fjordy oh#ívá Golfsk$

proud, a tak tady rostou t#e%n' &i %vestky jako doma.

Je v%ak t#eba dát si pozor. Jednou jsme vyjí(d'li s rozepnut$mi bundami, slunce páli-

lo a hladina byla jen lehce zkrabat'lá jemn$m v't#íkem. Jako na rybníce. Vtom zah#m'lo

a rázem m'ly vlny nebezpe&né bílé &epice. Dohnal nás &ern$ mrak se sn'hovou bou#kou.

Zpátky proti v'tru to u( ne%lo, a tak jsme n'kolik hodin proklepali na skalnatém útesu.

Oh#át jsme se zajeli do Bergenu. Nad tímhle m'stem mezi fjordy má absolutní moc mo#e.

the catch? None, except perhaps a metre

long cod or delicious Salmon! It may look

like a normal lake but it’s actually northern

wilderness. Norway is a country with most

unreliable weather forecasts – they are of

no use anyway, since you turn a corner

and everything is different. “We have two

seasons,” Norwegians say, “a white winter

and a green winter.” With a wry smile on

his face, a local man explained: “There’s no

such thing as bad weather. You can only be

poorly dressed.”

OF GRIEG AND TROLLS

We drove to Bergen for some warmth:

this little town situated among the fjords

is completely ruled by the sea. Bergen is

surrounded by seven hills and the clouds

settle over the town for a long time. It’s

humid and warm, like a greenhouse. The

ever-present drizzle makes people almost

amphibious and there is a well-worn local

joke in which a tourist asks a local young girl

whether there are ever days without rain.

“I don’t know,” responds the girl seriously,

“I am just twenty-one.”

Bergen is pleasant, warm, comfortable

and the “Hansa” houses are enchanting,

but ultimately some force seems to draw

you out, back among the fjords again.

Staring at them, you realise that they

seem to return both glance and mood;

they are endowed with a hypnotic power.

The surroundings are also captivating:

forests, glaciers, dramatic viewpoints and

cliffs with beautiful names like “the Troll’s

Ladder ”, blue lakes, rivulets and hundreds

upon hundreds of waterfalls. All of this is

wrapped in a majestic shawl of silence and

peacefulness.

You will soon realise why one of Bergen’s

most famous sons, Edvard Grieg, wrote

the piercingly beautiful music he did. It is

magical here, enthralling and fearsome –

a temple under the open sky.

Bergen je obklopen sedmi pahorky jako v hrnci a mraky se nad ním dr(í jako stan. Je

tady teplo a vlhko jako ve skleníku. Mo(ná tady zaslechnete vtip, v n'm( se turistka ptá

ironicky místní sle&ny, jestli tady byl v!bec n'kdy den bez de%t'. „Nevím,“ odpoví vá(n'

dívka. „Mn' je toti( teprve jednadvacet.“

Bergen je mil$, tepl$, pohodln$ a hanzovní domy jsou kouzelné, ale nakonec vás to zno-

vu vytáhne ven mezi fjordy. Kdy( na n' dlouho hledíte, zjistíte, (e ony hledí na vás. Mají

hypnotickou sílu. A to kolem: lesy, ledovce, dramatické v$hledy i skalní útesy s krásn$-

mi názvy, jako t#eba .eb#ík troll!, modrá jezera, #í&ky a stovky vodopád!. K tomu ticho,

velebnost, samota. Rychle pochopíte, pro& skladatel Edvard Grieg, jen( odtud pocházel

(v Bergenu mají je%t' jeho piano), psal takovou hudbu. Je to tady ú(asné i melancholické,

strhující i ochromující. Hotov$ chrám pod %ir$m nebem.

HE HAS BEEN SKATING ON THE !ESKÉ BUD#JO-VICE’S ICE RINK SINCE HE WAS FIVE. Although the lar-gest city in South Bohemia is renowned for its ice-hockey talents, Tomá% Verner found fame in another sport – he is the best Czech figure skater at present and current Euro-pean Champion.

Jen málo chlapc! si v "esk$ch Bud'jovicích neobuje brusle hokejové. Místní klub je

proslavenou líhní %pi&kov$ch hokejist! – v kanadsko-americké NHL se prosadili t#eba Ra-

dek Dvo#ák, Václav Prospal &i úto&ník Phoenix Coyotes Martin Hanzal, kter$ se fanou%-

k!m nedávno p#edstavil na mistrovství sv'ta coby nejmlad%í &esk$ reprezentant.

„Od p'ti do t#inácti jsem míval tréninky ráno od %esti do sedmi. Zbytek dne se po ledo-

vé plo%e prohán'li kluci s hokejkami! Já jsem to s hokejkou moc nezkou%el. U( ve %kolce

jsem (adonil, (e chci jít na krasobruslení. A byla za tím, jak u( to tak b$vá, (ena. Vlastn'

hol&i&ka,“ poodkr$vá Tomá% Verner rou%ku tajemství. „+t'pánka, kamarádka ze %kolky, se

kterou jsem cht'l b$t co nejvíc…“

Na za&átku v!bec netu%il, co tento sport obná%í, nato( kam jej jednou zanese.

Nejprve bruslil ka(d$ den brzy ráno, pozd'ji p#ibyl i trénink odpoledne. Dnes je na led'

minimáln' t#ikrát denn' %est dní v t$dnu. „Trénink se b'hem roku hodn' m'ní stejn' jako

jeho místo,“ #íká Tomá%. „P#es léto trávím &as v Kanad', Norsku, Finsku, +védsku a hlav-

n' v n'meckém Oberstdorfu.“

You will find only a handful of boys

in #eské Bud!jovice who have never

worn ice-hockey skates. The local club is

a renowned pool of ice-hockey talent: their

alumni include Radek Dvo&ák and Václav

Prospal, who both achieved success in NHL.

The star forward of the Phoenix Coyotes,

Martin Hanzal, who played at the recent

World Championship tournament, became

the youngest ice-hockey player to have

represented the Czech Republic. “From

the ages of five to thirteen I used to train

regularly from 6 to 7 o’clock in the morning.

For the rest of the day the ice rink belonged

to boys with sticks. I have not really tried

ice-hockey – even as a very small child,

in the kindergarten, I dreamt about figure

skating.” And as usual, a woman was behind

this inspiration, or rather, a little girl. “Her

name was (t!pánka and she was my friend

in the kindergarten. I wanted to be with her

as much as possible...”

At the very beginning, he had no idea what

this sport was about. Nor where it would

take him one day.

First, he trained every day early in the

morning, later he added afternoon sessions

on the ice. Today, he trains on the ice three

times a day, six days a week. “During the

year the training changes a lot, same as

the place where I train,” Tomá% explains.

“In summer, I spend some time in Canada,

INVITATION FROM THE MOTHER

Although he grew accustomed to the

nomadic life of top athletes, he still misses

his mother country. “All my family is here.

Moreover, South Bohemia is a beautiful place

to live.”

He grew up in #eské Bud!jovice and lived in

the city until he turned eighteen. Although

he spent a lot of time in Prague at school, he

Tomá%ov$m rodn$m m'stem je Písek, kde na vás historie d$chne na ka(dém rohu. Je tu

zejména nejstar%í kamenn$ most ve st#ední Evrop'. Náv%t'vníci by podle n'j nem'li opo-

PÁD Z TR#NU

Vloni z!stal Tomá% na mistrovství sv'ta jen t'sn' pod stupni vít'z!. Letos byl jedním z nej-

P#esto ale takov$ pád bolí. „Já mám to %t'stí, (e mám kolem sebe dv' rodiny, které mi po-

particularly likes about the South Bohemian

metropolis is that it somehow managed to

keep its small-town character. And he is

convinced that the historical centre, namely

P&emysl Otakar II. square, is one of the most

beautiful town centres in the world. “The

fountain right in the middle of the square

provides refreshment in hot summers.

Should you have any problems locating the

centre, go directly to the Black Tower. It is

a landmark you cannot miss. It’s 72 metres

tall and offers great views of the country,”

says the European figure skating champion.

T&ebo) is another favourite location for

Europe’s figure skating king. “Although

I don’t go fishing myself, I love the country

side full of ponds and lakes. I find the

views of the water calming. I regularly visit

Berta’s Spa, which is a local attraction,

as regeneration is a key element of any

training,” Tomá% adds. “If you don’t take

proper care of your body, it will soon stop

working. In T&ebo), you can get the very

best care and the town itself is a historical

gem. And the beautiful nature around! What

more can one wish for?!”

Tomá% was born in Písek, where you

encounter history on every corner. The city,

should not miss #esk* Krumlov, lake Lipno

and Borovany. “I have been living with my

family in this picturesque town, located 16 km

from #eské Bud!jovice, for three years.”

“VERNER’S PATH”

When he still trained in #eské Bud!jovice,

he often took his bike and set off into the

countryside. “Besides improving my physical

condition, I clear out my head in the fresh

air. I love the bicycle paths around #eské

Bud!jovice and T&ebo). They suit me by

their character and good navigation. Even

if you don’t have a map it’s very difficult to

get lost in my country,” says Tomá% with

„VERNEROVA STEZKA“

Kdy( Tomá% Verner trénoval je%t' v Bud'jovicích, &asto bral kolo a vyrá(el do p#írody.

„Vedle zlep%ení fyzické kondice si tak na &erstvém vzduchu krásn' vy&istím hlavu. Milu-

ji cyklostezky na "eskobud'jovicku a T#ebo*sku. Vyhovují mi sv$m terénem i perfektním

jedno, jestli vyrazíte p'%ky, na kole &i na kole&kov$ch bruslích. Pro v%echny jsou tu p#ipra-

veny trasy, které vás provedou krásnou p#írodou.“

Pokud byste se cht'li vydat v ji(ních "echách po „stezce Tomá%e Vernera“, za&n'te

v Hluboké nad Vltavou. „Po prohlídce zámku doporu&uji zastavit se na ob'd. Pak si obuj-

a smile, adding: “It really does not matter

whether you walk, ride a bicycle or opt for

roller skates; there are paths and routes for

everyone and they will take you through

beautiful nature.”

If you would like to try out Tomá% Verner’s

South Bohemian path, then start in Hluboká

nad Vltavou. “After a visit to the castle

I recommend lunch in the town. Then put

on your roller skates and follow the special

skate route to #eské Bud!jovice. There, take

a bicycle and ride to see Borovany. From here

you can ride on to Kle+ hill which offers great

views across the country. When the weather

is nice you can even see the Alps! Drive to

#esk* Krumlov a take a bike with you, you

can ride around lake Lipno and then continue

on into the (umava hills. Arriving in winter?

No problem, you can try cross-country skiing

or some places can be visited on foot without

problems. You won’t miss anything in winter,

the local countryside is beautiful throughout

the year.”

Fishpond management is one of the

traditional Czech crafts connected intimately

with Czech history. The oldest ponds were

built as early as the 13th century, often

connected with church manors. The next

group were established under the rule of

the Holy Roman Emperor, Charles IV. The

heyday of fishpond construction was in the

16th century, when two of the most fabled

fishpond architects working for the House

of Ro,mberk – (t!pánek Netolick* and

Jakub Kr'ín z Jel'an – started to reshape

the South-Bohemian landscape. The mighty

Ro,mberks used the natural conditions of

the T&ebo) area and decided to turn the

local wetlands into an extensive network

of fishponds. In 1515, (t!pánek Netolick*

became the Fish Master of T&ebo). He

designed an ingenious pond system on the

T&ebo) Plain, connected by the 45 km long

axis of the “Golden Canal”.

Netolick* used to build

shallow, warm ponds which

on with the work and in 1569 he became

the Regent of the entire Ro,mberk Estate,

immediately finding himself at loggerheads

with the residents of T&ebo) as he had an

entire suburb pulled down to facilitate

construction of dams. It was because of

the strong feelings the project created, that

Kr'ín called this pond Nevd!k, meaning

“Ingratitude”. After that, he built many

other new ponds and extended old ones.

In 1584, Kr'ín launched the construction of

the largest Czech fishpond, which marks the

apogee of old fishpond management. The

dam of Ro,mberk pond is 2,430 metres long

and almost ten metres high.

Having lived a life of glamour and glory, the most famous Czech

opera singer, Ema Destinová, ended her days in the Chateau at

Strá, nad Ne,árkou which she bought in 1914. The famed diva

loved this hospitable land. She used to fish at the New River and

her most favourite place was directly above the St&íb&eck* bridge

where a stone monument dedicated to her memory has been

erected. Photographs of the famous Czech singer, who in the early

20th century sang at the Metropolitan Opera in New York, were

incorporated into the stem of the old tree.

demonstrations of log-flotation can be viewed by the public. In

its time the Schwarzenberg channel was a singular technical

achievement with logs of up to 24 meters being floated through it

and up to 800 cubic meters of wood could be transported in a single

day. The Vchynicko-tetovsk* channel is another major water work

in (umava and channels water from the river Vydra to the K&emelná

There are few places in the Czech Republic where you feel so

find spots where the road disappears into wilderness. Starting from

the beautifully reconstructed -ofín lodge you can ride up to the

romantic settlement of Poho&í, which is slowly and gradually being

restored. You can then ride through deep woods and across bare

plains at an altitude of 750 to 950 metres; through a landscape that

resembles (umava but is even more remote and raw.

reconstruction and the top bikes returned in 1987. During the race’s

history, there have been both predictable and unexpected results.

The major stars of the race’s history are three top Italian bikers –

Loris Capirossi, Valentino Rossi, and Marco Melandri. The cheapest

tickets are available for CZK 140, while VIP tickets cost as much

as CZK 10,000. Accommodation is available in seven camps around

Pod názvem Sn'(enka se v malebné p#írod' ve Smr(ovce v Jizersk$ch horách ukr$-

vá u( deset let Evropské v$tvarné centrum, které se v'nuje t'lesn' posti(en$m d'tem.

„D'tskou tvorbu ukazujeme v kalendá#ích, na v$stavách, pohlednicích, telefonních kar-

tách a podobn'. Vidí-li d'ti své v$tvory prezentované, pochopí, (e snaha má v$znam.

Získávají pozitivní pocit, chu) tvo#it a bojovat za sebe. A to je d!le(ité pro jejich budouc-

nost. Pro mo(nost pozd'j%ího osamostatn'ní,“ #íká fotograf Ji#í Hladík, jeden z duchov-

ních otc! centra. O vznik a provoz Sn'(enky se spolu s ním zaslou(il je%t' publicista Lu-

bomír Vejra(ka.

„Posti(ené d'ti jsou osobnosti, které sice pot#ebují pomoc okolí ve vlastním konání a r!s-

tu, nestojí ale o fale%n$ soucit a gesta, politování a nep#im'#en$ ohled. Necht'jí (ít jako

ve zlaté kleci. Nep#ejí si b$t vy#azeny z mnoha oblastí (ivota, které jsou pro nás ostat-

ní naprosto samoz#ejmé,“ tvrdí Ji#í Hladík. „Usilujeme o to, aby se propojil ná% sv't s jejich

sv'tem. Aby se zmírnily bariéry, které je obklopují. I proto je centrum koncipováno jako

otev#ené. P#ijí(d'jí sem i d'ti mentáln' posti(ené, d'ti z rizikov$ch skupin a d'tsk$ch do-

The name Sn!,enka (snowdrop in

Czech) refers to the European Art Centre

dedicated to physically handicapped

children: it is to be found in the picturesque

landscape of Smr,ovka in the Jizera

Mountains.

“We show the children’s work in calendars,

at exhibitions, postcards, phone cards etc.

Once the children have seen their creations

presented, they understand that their effort

is worthwhile. They get a positive attitude,

the willingness to create and to fight for

themselves. And that’s important for their

future and their later independence,”

says photographer Ji&í Hladík, one of the

godfathers of the Centre. The other force

behind the establishment, founding and

operation of Sn!,enka, is the publicist

Lubomír Vejra,ka.

“Handicapped children do need the help

of their environment in their own actions

and development, but they don’t care for

a false sympathy, gestures of sorrow and

inadequate considerations. They don’t

want to live in a golden cage. They don’t

want to be excluded from the many fields

of our lives that are so natural to the rest

of us,” claims Ji&í Hladík. “Our effort is to

connect our world with theirs, to alleviate

the barriers that surround them. That’s

why the Centre is designed as an open one.

We also have children coming in who are

mentally handicapped, children from high-

risk groups and from children’s homes, as

well as healthy children.”

Od roku 2002 vzniká i &tvrtá v#stavní kolekce, „Noemova Archa“, která je o ekologii, ohro$en#ch druzích zví!at a rostlin. These paintings were painted by children from the the Sn%&enka art center in Smr&ovka. The collections, named Peru – Desires and dreams, Ladakh – Desires and dreams, Jizera fantasies, have been a resounding success with visitors. Since 2002, the exhibition Noah’s Ark, : all about ecology and endangered species of animals and plants, has been a work in progress.

V $RO#ÍA N N I V E R S A R Y

V POND"LÍ 28. %ÍJNA 1918 VZNIKLA !ESKOSLOVEN-SKÁ REPUBLIKA. V bou#li-v$ch dobách posledních t$dn! první sv'tové války se nemoh-la obejít bez vlastní armády a bez letadel. Proto se u( v úter$ 29. #íjna v novinách ob-jevily první zprávy o zrodu &es-koslovenského letectva. Od té doby uplynulo 90 let.

ON MONDAY, 28TH OCTO-BER, 1918, THE CZECHO-SLOVAK REPUBLIC WAS FOUNDED. The country could not do without an army of its own in those turbu-lent times of the last weeks of the World War I and the army could not do without air sup-port. On Tuesday, 29th Octo-ber, 90 years ago, the Czech newspapers heralded the cre-ation of the Czechoslovak air forces.

V ranních vydáních pra(sk$ch deník! se 29. #íjna 1918 objevila v$zva: „"esk$m vojá-

k!m. "e%tí vojáci, kte#í jsou ochotni dáti své slu(by k disposici Národnímu v$boru, aby byl

udr(ován po#ádek, nech) p#ijdou dnes v úter$ 29. t. m. o 8. hodin' ráno na .ofín.“

V úter$ 29. #íjna u( ve ve&ernících vy%la krátká zpráva: „Národní obrana. V nejbli(%ích ho-

dinách bude organisována slu(ba aviatická pro spojení hlavního m'sta &eského státu se

vzdálen$mi oblastmi. Zatím jsou to dv' létadla.“ Práv' tato zpráva znamenala zrod letec-

tva.

Autorem citovaného prohlá%ení byl kpt. Jind#ich Kostrba, úsp'%n$ stíhací pilot a spolupra-

covník domácí odbojové skupiny Maffie, kter$ m'l na svém kont' z války osm vzdu%n$ch

vít'zství. V podzimních m'sících roku 1918 velel vojenské policii v Praze.

BALONY A VZDUCHOLODI

Historie létání v &esk$ch zemích v%ak sahá daleko p#ed rok 1918. Na sklonku 18. století

vzlétly v Praze roku 1784 první malé balony. Na vzlet &lov'ka v%ak bylo t#eba po&kat je%-

The early editions of the daily papers on

29th October, 1918, published the following

appeal: “To Czech soldiers. We are calling all

Czech soldiers who are willing to make their

services available to the National Committee

in order to maintain order, to come to -ofín,

today, on Tuesday 29th Oct., at 8 a.m.”

On Tuesday, 29th October, the evening

papers published the following short

notice: “National defence. Flight service

connecting the capital of the Czech state

with distant areas will be established in the

nearest hours. For the time

being, there are two aircraft

operating.” This short piece

Jean Pierre Blanchard, doprovázen &esk$m p#írodov'dcem, &lenem Královské &eské

spole&nosti nauk Joachimem hrab'tem +ternberkem, v balonu 31. #íjna opravdu vzlétl.

V$znamnou událostí ve sv'tové historii letectví byla stavba vzducholodi in(en$ra Paula

Haenleina, k ní( do%lo v Brn' v roce 1872. Byla to teprve &tvrtá vzducholo- na sv't'. Le-

t'la v%ak pouze dvakrát. P#i p#íprav' na t#etí zku%ební plavbu byla vá(n' po%kozena

a v lednu 1873 ji vlak odvezl do Vídn', kde s ní ji( dal%í experimenty nepokra&ovaly.

Ke skute&nému rozmachu balonového létání u nás docházelo od roku 1893. Souviselo

to se vznikem "eské aeronautické spole&nosti, která se sv$m balonem Ressel, pojmeno-

van$m po &eském vynálezci lodního %roubu, vykonala desítky let!. Po &ty#ech letech se

v%ak rozpadla.

PRVNÍ LETADLA

Od roku 1906 se v Evrop' rozvíjelo motorové létání. První &esk$ letec Ing. Jan Ka%par

z Pardubic vzlétl poprvé 16. dubna 1910. Po#ádal pak &etná ve#ejná letecká vystoupení

v &esk$ch a moravsk$ch m'stech. V roce 1911 se proslavil p#eletem Pardubice – Praha,

dlouh$m 120 km, co( byl tehdy neoficiální dálkov$ rekord v Rakousku-Uhersku.

Na podzim 1913 se zrodil "esk$ aviatick$ klub pro království &eské. A& do první sv'tové

války mohl vykonat jen málo, v roce 1918 se jako "eskoslovensk$ aeroklub aktivn' zapo-

mezi nejstar%í aerokluby na sv't'.

Dlu(no #íci, (e národní letectví na po&átku minulého století postrádalo vn'j%í podporu

a rozvíjelo se jen pomalu. Po&et aktivních letc! v t'ch dobách nedosáhl ani desítky, t'sn'

p#ed první sv'tovou válkou, která znamenala konec ve%kerého civilního létání, byl aktivní

jen jedin$ letec, Eugen "ihák z Pardubic.

P#esto se v%ak ji( v letech 1910–1913 v "echách objevilo n'kolik pokus! o zavedení le-

tecké v$roby. Nem'ly v%ak nad'ji na úsp'ch. A( v lednu 1918 zahájila v Praze &innost fir-

of the air force.

The above declaration was written by

a fighter ace, Captain Jind&ich Kostrba,

a former associate of the domestic resistance,

the so-called Maffie, who scored eight air

victories in the war and who, in the autumn

months of 1918, was placed in command of

the Military Police in Prague.

BALLOONS AND AIRSHIPS

However, the history of aviation in Bohemia

stretches back beyond 1918: at the turn of

the 18th century, in 1784, the first small

balloons took to the air over Prague. It was

another six years however, before the first man took to the air.

The Kramerius Prague Postal Paper of 30th October, 1790,

announces that: “Mr Blanchart, the artificial aeronaut, arrived

to Prague, and he shall publicly show his craft to our prominent

Prague audience.”

Jean Pierre Blanchard, accompanied by Czech naturalist and

member of the Royal Czech Scientific Institution, Count Joachim

Sternberg, did indeed take-off in a balloon on 31st October

that year.

The construction of an airship by Paul Haenlein in Brno in 1872

was a significant event not just for Czech but also for world

aeronautic history, as it was only the fourth airship in the world.

It did, however, only conduct two flights as, during preparation

for the third flight, it was seriously damaged, then taken by

train to Vienna in 1873, and no further experiments with it were

carried out.

The true heyday of Czech balloon aviation started in1893 and is

related to the foundation of the Czech Aeronautic Society, which

conducted many flights with its balloon Ressel, named after the

Czech inventor of the screw-propeller. Four years later, this

society dispersed.

THE FIRST AIRCRAFT

From the year 1906, motor aviation started to develop in Europe.

The first Czech pilot – engineer Jan Ka%par from Pardubice first

took off on 16th April, 1910. After that, he performed a number

of public aerial shows in Czech and Moravian towns. In 1911,

he gained fame by his flight from Pardubice to Prague which, at

120 km, was an unofficial distance record in the former Austro-

Hungarian Empire.

In autumn 1913, the Czech Aviatic Club of the Bohemian Kingdom

was born. It did not achieve very much before World War I, but

was later renamed the Czechoslovak Aeroclub and played

It has to be said that national aviation at the beginning of

the previous century lacked any outside support and it only

developed slowly. The number of active pilots at the time was less

than ten and, just before the beginning of the World War I – which

put an end to the entire civil aviation industry – there was only

a single pilot who was active – Eugen #ihák from Pardubice.

Despite that, several attempts were made to launch aeroplane

production on Czech territory between 1910 and 1913.These

attempts were, however, doomed to failure and it was not until

January 1918 that AlMa, a company which used to repair aircraft

for the Austrian-Hungarian air force, started its operations in

Prague. It was there that the repairs of the two planes, that the

earlier press item from 29th October refers to, were about to be

completed in October, 1918.

PRODUCTION

The formation of Czechoslovakia was a true breakthrough

opportunity for domestic aviation. It attracted the support of

the government and was supported by the Constituent National

Assembly, especially by its Military Committee headed by the

parliamentarian Franti%ek Udr,al, later Minister of National

Defence and Prime Minister. Suddenly, the Czech capital, which

had overlooked this industry, sat up and showed an interest. Also,

the Czechoslovak president, Tomá% G. Masaryk, manifested his

interest in aviation by supporting the Avia plant with one hundred

thousand crowns from his private funds in 1920.

Despite the shortage of aircraft, the Air Corps started to build

a courier line from Prague to the eastern parts of the Czech

Republic as early as November 1918. This naturally involved the

construction of airports to facilitate this industry.

Leteck* Arsenál, a plane repair firm was founded in the middle

of November 1918. This was later on succeeded by the Vojenská

továrna na letadla (Military Aircraft Plant), the traditions of

cem se stala Vojenská továrna na letadla, na její( tradice dnes navazuje firma Letov-Le-

tecká v$roba.

V lednu 1919 byla zalo(ena soukromá továrna Aero. Také ona za&ínala opravami leta-

del, ale na sklonku tého( roku zkonstruovala první vlastní typ, %kolní letoun A.1. Pak sta-

v roce 1924 pro "eskoslovensko první sv'tové rekordy. Historie továrny pokra&uje do-

V zá#í 1919 zahájila &innost dal%í letecká továrna – Avia. Její za&átky byly obtí(né, trp'-

la nedostatkem základního kapitálu. P#esto v roce 1920 postavila první motorové letadlo

a postupn' se proslavila hlavn' stroji stíhacími a cvi&n$mi. Její letouny dosáhly &etn$ch

úsp'ch! v mezinárodních sout'(ích.

se Avia rozrostla v nejv't%í &eskoslovenskou leteckou továrnu, jí( byla a( do zru%ení letec-

which are followed today by Letov-Letecká

v*roba (LetovAir Production).

In January 1919, a private plant Aero was

established. Initially, this plant also merely

repaired aircraft, but, in the fall of the same

year, they constructed their first aircraft –

the training aeroplane A.1. After that, they

constructed surveillance planes, bombers,

and cargo aircraft. The aircraft A.12 built

by Aero, achieved the first world records for

Czechoslovakia after 1924. The history of

the plant now continues in the form of Aero

Vodochody.

In September 1919, Avia, another aviation

plant, started operating. The beginnings

were hard, as the plant suffered from a lack

of capital. However, they constructed the

first motor aircraft in 1920 and gradually,

they gained a strong reputation with

their fighter and training aircraft. Their

planes achieved significant rankings in

international competitions; the aircraft

B.H.5 for example, achieved the first one

of these in 1923 being awarded the King

of Belgium’s award. Eventually, Avia grew

into the largest Czechoslovak aeronautical

factory and kept this position until 1960,

when aeronautical production there was

abandoned.

A SOLID HERITAGE AND A HEALTHY

FUTURE

The foundations, laid after the establishment

of the Czechoslovak Republic, were used for

further development of Czech aviation after

World War II. Zlin-Trener, Delfin, Albatros

and Blaník are all native aviation brands well

known throughout the aviation industry to

this day.

Even though the aviation industry has

experienced significant recession since 1989,

the most critical times have been overcome.

Today, the Czech aviation industry is active

in cooperation with European and other

international aircraft manufacturers.

Dne 12. dubna 1961 zazn$l z vesmíru hlas Jurije Gagarina, kter' v kosmické lodi

Vostok 1 uskute&nil první v'pravu do kosmu. Trvalo je#t$ &ty"i desítky let, ne% se p"á-

ní let$t do vesmíru stalo realitou i pro neprofesionály. Prvním vesmírn'm turistou byl

v roce 2001 #edesátilet' Ameri&an Dennis Tito. Po n$m let$lo ke hv$zdám dal#ích pár

jedinc!. Museli mít odvahu, b't naprosto zdraví, vydr%et #estim$sí&ní v'cvik a hlavn$

museli b't nesmírn$ bohatí. V'let na palub$ ruské kosmické lodi k mezinárodní orbitál-

ní stanici (ISS) stojí 20 milion! dolar!. Práv$ vysoká cena je ten hlavní d!vod, pro& se

dosud do vesmíru podívala jen p$tistovka pozem#(an!. To by se nyní m$lo zm$nit.

V Praze byl v dubnu oficiáln$ zahájen prodej let! do vesmíru se spole&ností Virgin Ga-

lactic, jejím% majitelem je mimo"ádn$ úsp$#n' sedmapadesátilet' britsk' podnikatel Ri-

chard Branson. Letenky se prodávají za 200 000 dolar!. Samoz"ejm$ i to si mohou

dovolit jen mimo"ádn$ majetní, ale jde zhruba o setinu dosavadní ceny.

V sou&asné dob$ je v záv$re&né fázi stavba mate"ského nosného letadla WhiteKnight-

Two i samotné vesmírné lodi SpaceShip Two pro #est pasa%ér! a dvou&lennou posád-

ku. První komer&ní start by se tak m$l uskute&nit ze Spacefort America v americkém

stát$ Nové Mexiko u% koncem p"í#tího roku. V prvním roce má let$t asi 500 lidí, v dal-

#ích deseti letech by to m$lo b't celkem asi 50 000 cestujících. Raketoplány budou

startovat i dvakrát denn$. Úm$rn$ s po&tem zájemc! bude klesat i cena letenky, která

by v budoucnu m$la stát asi jako pr!m$rné osobní auto.

The sixty-year old American Dennis Tito

became the first space tourist in 2001. Only

a few other individuals followed him on a

flight to the stars. They had to have courage,

impeccable health credentials, withstand six

months of rigorous training and, clearly, have

immense wealth. A trip on board a Russian

spaceship to the International Space Station

(ISS) costs 20 million dollars. The high price-

tag has been the primary reason why only

five hundred terrestrials have visited space

so far. This should start changing soon.

In April, the sale of space trips was launched

in Prague by the Virgin Galactic company. Its

owner is the extraordinarily successful, fifty-

seven year old British entrepreneur Richard

Branson. A ticket to the stars will set you

back 200.000 dollars and it is still only the

well-heeled who can afford this, but it is

worth remarking that the price now stands

at only about a hundredth of the previous

cost.

Construction work on the mother-vehicle

WhiteKnightTwo and on the space vehicle

itself, SpaceShipTwo, is currently in its final

stage. The spaceship will accommodate six

passengers and two crew members and if all

goes to plan, its first commercial flight should

lift off towards the end of next year from

Spaceport America in New Mexico. During

the first year, about 500 people will be able

to enjoy flights and over the next decade the

number of passengers is expected to grow

to 50.000. Each spaceship should be capable

of making two trips per day and the price

of tickets should drop in proportion to the

growing number of customers so that in the

near future, the trip should cost no more

than an average car.

THE TOUCH OF SPACE

Virgin Galactic passengers will not travel to

space in the same way as ‘normal’ orbital

flights that sometimes take days. Instead,

these will be short, sub-orbital flights. The

spaceship will be delivered by a mothership;

a carrier airplane which powers the craft

to an altitude of about 15 kilometers,

whereupon it will detach itself and fire up

its own rocket motor. Then, within ninety

seconds, SpaceShipTwo will reach three

times the speed of sound and climb to an

altitude of about 110 kilometers.

Shortly before reaching the zenith of its

ascent, the spacecraft will fold its wings

in preparation for re-entry into Earth’s

atmosphere, to which it is drawn by

gravitational forces. Before starting its

descent, the craft and its passengers will

experience about four and a half minutes of

weightlessness. When descending into the

upper layer of the atmosphere, the flipped-up

wings will serve as brakes to control the

transit of the craft through the upper

atmosphere.

At a height of approximately eighteen

kilometers the wings will rotate back into

their original position, enabling for

a smooth and gradual glide down to an

unpowered landing. Considering the short

stay in space, “training” is limited to a medical

check-up and a trial session in a centrifuge,

both of which is to take up no more than

two days. Almost everybody will ultimately

be able to blast off into space and British

astrophysicist Stephen Hawking, despite

being quadriplegic, is already scheduled to

fly with Virgin Galactic. The space journey

will be relatively inexpensive because the

designers used new composite materials that

are far lighter and more durable than metals

meaning that, in contrast to “classic” space

missions, both spaceship and mothercraft

can be re-used many times.

MEN OF ACTION

The space vehicles themselves are being built

by The Spaceship Company, a joint venture

of Richard Branson’s Virgin Group and

Burt Rutan’s Scaled Composites Company.

The names of both men are synonymous

with success and reliability. Branson has

a proven track record in air transport and

other business ventures and in recognition

has been awarded a knighthood. Burt Rutan

is the creator of, among other revolutionary

inventions, the so-called “feathering”

effect that his spaceship employs when re-

entering Earth’s atmosphere. This stage had

previously been one of the most risky but

Rutan’s wing design creates a similar effect

to the feathers on a badminton shuttlecock,

giving the spacecraft an exceptionally strong

braking drag.

Since 2004, Rutan has been the holder

of the Ansari X Prize, awarded to the first

successful private effort to send a craft

capable of reaching sub-orbit while carrying

one person and the equivalent of the weight

of three others to the altitude of at least

a hundred kilometers. The vehicle also had

to be reusable from at least eighty percent

and able to set out into space twice within a

two week period. This feat was achieved by

SpaceShipOne, the predecessor of the space

vehicle aboard which the first space tourists

will travel. The pilot Brian Binnie received

his astronauts’ wings for this trip, while his

colleague Mike Melvill had already earned

them for the test flights.

In the Czech Republic, the sale of tickets

to space was entrusted to the TYP Agency

and has had a palpable effect as their

representative Roman Joná% pointed out:

“Thanks to the announcement by Virgin

Galactic about the sale of tickets to space,

people started to perceive this milestone in

cosmic travel as a close reality”.

This proud people are descended from the warlike Dacians, live in the shadow of the beautiful Carpathian Mountains and produce a seemingly endless stream of excellent gymnasts. Having joined the European Union last year, Bucharest now aspires to be called Paris-of-the-East again.

Bucharest is a true metropolitan area

and the big names such as McDonald’s,

Benetton, LG and many others have

been there a long time now. Ceau/escu’s

grand boulevards and majestic palaces

still dominate the city, but modern shops,

curious boutiques, colourful shop-windows,

people dressed in high fashion and new

chic restaurants have become standard

features of this vibrant city.

There are small balconied corners, with lacy

ironwork and coloured window shutters

reminiscent of Paris at its finest. Continuing

this Gallic theme; Romanians are also

flattered to be called “the French of the

Balkans”.

A good example of this new flare for style is

Mrs Andrea’s new store in the very heart of

Bucharest. She sells decorative lampshades

and decorations made of coloured glass. The

look is a blend of “art nouveau” and Italian

– but manages to stay on the right side of

tacky.

What’s interesting is that all the products

and the store itself are Romanian. The

OTHER THINGS TO SEEYou should definitely visit the Romanian

countryside: the poor area of Oltenia in

the south is a place of dramatic contrasts

where you can often see traditional horse-

-drawn wagons trotting past ultra-modern

petrol stations. It is a hive of activity

also, with beautiful villas and bungalows

being built, old ones being restored and

new shops and bistros popping up. On

the approach to the Carpathian foothills,

the villages get progressively prettier and

better kept. The regional capital Ramnicu

Valcea, with 120 000 inhabitants, is

a popular base for tourists who then head

further up into the mountains or who

simply enjoy walks in the forested hills.

The Romanian Carpathian Mountains are

the natural jewel of this country – they

are dramatic, wild and beautiful – and are

still largely undiscovered by tourists. For

the adventurous at heart there is a wealth

of unspoilt natural beauty awaiting ...

shopkeeper exudes Parisian chic, but her sassiness is pure

Romanian, born and bred.

A classy perfumery on one of the main boulevards is full of

customers. “Can I help you, Sir? Are you looking for a gift

for your partner?” asks a pretty and helpful shop-assistant in

excellent English. It feels like being in a boutique in Pa&í,ská

in the centre of Prague. A few streets further down, you come

across an area of second-hand bookshops, reminiscent of the

Rive Gauche Paris.

The city certainly doesn’t lack green spaces either. Bucharest’s

“Central Park“ is probably even larger than the one in New York

and you can do very much the same things here; go jogging,

skating, biking, walking or simply take your ease on the lush

grass…

Even the socialist-era tower blocks, which stretch away like

spokes from the city centre in all directions, don’t seem as

bleak as before. They have been renovated and are a good deal

more colourful than elsewhere in the world. While residents

occupy them from the first floor up, the ground floors are

almost exclusively taken over with various flamboyant shops,

tobacconists, medical offices, notary’s offices and travel

agencies.

The massive development of industrial and shopping zones in

the suburbs proves that the Romanian economy of twenty-two

million people is healthy and attracting plenty of outside

investment. For example, French car maker, Renault, is

expanding in Romania and under their guidance the small Dacia

Logan family car is no longer looked down upon.

PEOPLE’S PALACE – A LARGE AND

BIZARRE BUILDING

The most attractive site in the city

is the compact historical centre, but

obviously one can’t ignore Ceau/escu’s

People’s Palace. To build this monument

to megalomania almost one quarter of

the old town was pulled down, including

many houses, churches, synagogues and

beautiful modernist villas, all demolished.

Today, the Romanian parliament sits on

this sight and guided tours for tourists are

also organised here.

Ceau/escu’s Palace is one of the largest

and most bizarre buildings in the world,

exceeding even the decadent palaces of

Saddam Hussein. In terms of grandiosity,

perhaps only the American Pentagon

could compete with it. It has over 3,100

rooms, twenty wings, a labyrinth of secret

passages and the upper floors nearly

disappear into the haze of the metropolis.

The Romanian leader had called the

building the “House of the People” and

referred to it as the Romanian Acropolis.

He did not however live to see the

completion of the building as was executed

by “his” people during the revolution in

December 1989. There is an interesting

irony in the fact that, at the beginning of

April 2008, Ceau/escu’s monstrous palace

hosted the largest ever NATO summit.

The Victoriei Boulevard is the main

commercial street which bustles with

activity. To get a sense of the vibe of con-

temporary Bucharest, a leisurely wander

along this street is a great start. All the

communist era events took place such a

long time ago now that a new generation of

students has now come up who remember

hardly any of it and who simply want to

enjoy their coffee at friendly little cafés.

The exhibition is unique not only

because of the time span it surveys – the

works depict amorous motifs in art from

the 15th to the 19th Centuries – but also

because of the fact that many works are

being presented to the public for the very

first time.

Visitors have a superb opportunity to

follow changes in the depictions of love

motifs in fine art and art handicraft from

the Renaissance to the turn of the 19th and

20th centuries. The theme is presented

on several levels: from maternal and filial

love, through biblical and mythological love

stories, to the moralizing genre and erotic

fantasies.

Art works by a variety of Italian, German,

French, Dutch and Flemish masters are

on display. A special separate section is

devoted to Czech art of the 19th century,

represented by Mánes, Bro,ík, #ermák and

Hynais.

Another separate hall is dedicated to Bene%

Knüpfer, whose drawing-room compositions

excel in colorful sophistication, decorati-

veness and provocative sensuality.

A special feature of the exhibition is the

“Secret chamber” – a room with carefully

selected objets d’art designed to evoke

the atmosphere of a private collection of

paintings with erotic themes, of the sort

that often featured in the residences of

prominent art collectors and bons viveurs.

In the area devoted to Graphics you will

find intriguing engravings by artists like

Dürer and Goya, the intimate character

of which facilitated a greater degree of

openness, resulting in new iconographic

patterns in erotic art. The exhibition is

further complemented by collections of

applied and commercial art.

CHATEAU MCELY

Originally, Slovakian-born Inés Cusumano

wanted to avoid the location of Chateau

Mcely near Nymburk altogether: it

looked hopelessly beyond repair in

the photographs. But then something

happened, something that the current

owner of the chateau can’t still quite

explain. When she got out of her car in

front of the chateau on that September

afternoon in 2001, she was met by the then

janitor of the chateau. “Quite naturally, he

told me that it had taken me long to arrive.

The chateaux had been waiting for me, he

said,” recalls Mrs. Cusumano in her book

Honey, Pearls and Silk.

It must have been indeed difficult to

imagine that this derelict ruin, not worthy

of the title of “chateau”, could ever be

restored to a house worthy of that name.

It was half a century ago when Chateau

Mcely was, last, a comfortable aristocratic

mansion. After the communist coup the

chateau was ruined, reaching a nadir in

1960 when the nationalised mansion was

turned into a warehouse for the Ministry

of Defence. Despite this, Mrs Cusumano

had a strong feeling that she had returned

home. “I moved in spaces where I’d never

been and yet, they felt familiar.” And then,

miracles started to happen. “Determined

to get rid of obtrusive ideas, I offered the

chateau owners a significantly lower price

than they had asked for. It was so low

that it allowed me a safe escape from the

idea to live with this ruin as a burden. The

owners were shocked at first but then, after

a couple of days, they accepted...” She

then successfully applied for an EU grant

and in early 2004 a demanding two-year

reconstruction process commenced, during

which Mrs Cusumano and her American

husband developed the idea to turn this

central-Bohemian chateau into a place

which would provide its guests with

a refuge from everyday commotion and

help them to find balance in their lives.

That they were successful in realising their

dream is proven in the award of Best of

Real Estate 2006 that they received in the

hotel category; and also by the fact that

their hotel was immediately included in

worldwide network of exclusive hotels.

famous Hluboká castle. It however, still

awaits its fairy godmother to restore its

fortunes. Its predecessor was a water castle

(a moated fortification) built in the mid

14th century, which burnt down in 1860.

The ruins were rebuilt in the Neo-gothic

style by the owner M. Angelo of Picchioni.

The current dilapidated state of the

building is very much the responsibility of

the nearby municipality into whose “care”

the castle was given over after 1945.

The devastated interiors, derelict chateau

park and crumbling walls are all indictments

of the communist regime and its attitude to

Czech heritage.

DO YOU KNOW THAT...According to a list published by the

Czech National Monument Conservation

Institute last year, around 600 heritage

sites in the country face the threat of

destruction: in Prague there are

44 buildings, and the worst problem lies

in the Ústí region where 108 structures

are in danger of being lost.

There are enthusiasts who buy their

own castles and restore them? One

such soul is Pavel Palack*, who saved

Hauen%tejn castle in the Karlovy Vary

region.

The Renaissance chateau in Ma&í, near

Slavonice, which boasted a beautifully

kept garden shortly after WWII, shared

the sad fate of many buildings located

near the Western borders: people were

moved out from the village and the

chateau was destroyed by filmmakers in

the 1970s when they needed to shoot an

explosion of an aristocratic mansion.

The Baroque-style granary in Dolní

Skr*chov, near Jind&ich.v Hradec,

was reconstructed and turned into

a gallery of modern art, complete with

a Romantic-style park full of statues, by

the artist Josef Andrle.

BARTO& KNIGHTS OF DOBENÍN

The family Barto)s, knights of Dobenín,

lives in the chateau in Nové M!sto nad

Metují, a pretty little town in Eastern

Bohemia near Náchod. This family

are relative newcomers among Czech

aristocracy their predecessors having

been granted their titles by the emperor

Franz Josef I in recognition of their work.

They were pioneers in the development of

the textile industry and this explains the

presence of two weaving shuttles in their

coat-of-arms.

The current owner, Josef Marian, arrived in

the Czech Republic in 1991 after many long

years spent in the United States. As soon as

politicians started debating the possibility

of restitutions, he decided to stay and his

patience was rewarded when he got back

the family chateau, fields, woods and textile

factory.

“The chateau was in quite a decent

condition,” he says about the Renaissance

chateau built in 1547–1618. “Repairs were

needed nevertheless, and the subsidies

from the government were just not enough.”

At first, Marian used to mind that crowds

of people looked into his childhood rooms

and through the whole house. Despite this

he made most of the chateau accessible to

the public. “My family, that is me, my wife

and our son, live in the six rooms formerly

used for servants’ quarters,” says knight

Barto) of Dobenín. “The only drawback is

that whenever I feel like walking our dogs

in the morning, I can’t walk out in pyjamas

for there would be tourists around,” he

adds jokingly. The four-wing Renaissance

chateau, rebuilt in the early 20th century by

Du%an Jurkovi', has been declared Czech’s

National Cultural Monument of the year for

2008.

The original living premises, where the

castle owner spent his childhood, were

turned, after 1948, into exhibition space.

The restored owners decided to leave the

exhibition area in its present form and found

new living in the depository where they live

in four rooms. Virtually all the revenue from

exhibitions and from the 1,600 hectares

of surrounding forest is immediately

re-invested in the castle. “I don’t do business.

Rather, I’d say, I just manage the castle,”

says this romantic castle’s owner, Zden!k

Sternberg. “I just want to preserve all of

this. I feel a kind of family responsibility.

ka a "editelka Canadian Medical Care. „Sta&í rychl' v't$r ze st$n sliznice krku a za chví-

li víme, je-li v organismu p"ítomen Streptococcus pyogenes, kter' je nejpravd$podobn$j#í

bakteriální p"í&inou pacientov'ch obtí%í.“

VY'ET+ENÍ CRP

Sestra p"iná#í mali&k' plastov' p"edm$t, kter' vypadá jako mot'lek. Rozp!lí ho a p"ilo%í

pacientovi na prst. Nemocn' ucítí jen malé bodnutí a do nastavené kapiláry u% odkapává

krev. Pan docent se podívá na hodinky. „To je celé, te) jen po&káme na v'sledek.“

P"i tzv. vy#et"ení CRP sta&í trocha krve odebrané z prstu a léka" doká%e b$hem chvilky

zjistit, zda je nutné pacientovi nasadit antibiotika.

„Testem zji#(ujeme p"ítomnost C reaktivního proteinu, co% je bílkovina, kterou ve zv'#ené

mí"e vytvá"ejí játra, pokud organismus bojuje s bakteriální infekcí,“ objas-uje profesor Köl-

bel princip stanovení glykemie.

Po t"ech minutách sestra hlásí: „Mén$ ne% osm.“ A pan profesor m!%e svému pacientovi

"íci: „Jde pravd$podobn$ o virózu. Lé&ba antibiotiky by byla zbyte&ná.“

current status. We cannot find out whether

the problems are of a chronic nature – for

this, we have other examinations – however,

we can decide about effective medication

in a matter of minutes,” explains Professor

Franti%ek Kölbel, a noted authority working

for the Canadian Medical Care.

THE STREP TEST

“Why, it hasn’t hurt at all,” wonders the

eight-year-old boy. “The nurse just tickled

me in the throat and then we watched

a little paper to see if it turns blue. Just like

when mummy wanted to find out whether

we shall have little baby-girl.” This young

patient has just undergone one of the newly

introduced methods – the STREP TEST. “We

apply it when we suspect Strep-A tonsillitis,

which is, along with sore throats, one of the

most frequent reasons for visiting a doctor,”

says Dr. Barbara Tau%ová, pediatrician and

Managing Director of the Canadian Medical

Care. “All we need is a quick swab from the

throat mucosa and we know in a moment

whether the bacteria Streptococcus

pyogenes is present in the body, which is the

most likely cause of the patient’s troubles.”

THE CRP TEST

The nurse brings a small plastic object

shaped like a butterfly. She halves it and

applies it to the patient’s finger. The patient

only feels a tiny prick and the blood starts

dripping into the prepared capillary tube.

The doctor checks his watch: “That’s it –

now we simply have to wait for the result.”

Through this exam, called a CPR, the

doctor only needs a tiny amount of blood

from a finger to establish within a moment

whether or not to apply antibiotics to treat

the patient. Professor Kölbel explains the

principle of determining glycaemia: “With

this test, we establish the presence of the

C-reactive protein; this is a protein produced

by the liver if the body is fighting a bacterial

infection.” In under three minutes, the

nurse reports: “Less than eight.” And thus,

the Professor can tell his patient: “It is most

likely a viral infection. Treating you with

antibiotics would be useless.”

Life is Like an Orchestra Pit

RUDOLF JAVUREK, THE MANAGING DIRECTOR OF IMPORT VOLKSWAGEN GROUP, loves cars, sailing and he is also interested in psychology. He flies with Czech Airlines – frequently and happily.

For seven years, fifty-six year-old

Austrian Rudolf Javurek has been managing

the strongest domestic importer of private

cars – Import Volkswagen Group – which

represents the car brands Volkswagen, Audi

and SEAT. His roots, just like his wife’s, are

in the Czech Republic. His grandparents

came from Sázava and from Kolín and he is

proud of his origins and can speak Czech.

CZECH ROOTS

“My grandparents relocated to Vienna in

1884. I have already visited Sázava, but

I could hardly locate the little village of

Vranice u Kolína, where my grandmother

Vl'ková was born, on the internet. But

since the navigation in our cars is very good

&e pocházeli ze Sázavy a od Kolína. Rudolf Javurek je na sv!j p!vod hrd' a mluví i &esky.

"ESKÉ KO+ENY

„Moji prarodi&e p"esídlili v roce 1884 do Vídn$. V Sázav$ u% jsem se byl podívat. Malé Vra-

nice u Kolína, kde se narodila babi&ka Vl&ková, jsem st$%í na#el na internetu, ale díky tomu,

%e u% je v na#ich automobilech velice dob"e vy"e#ená navigace, mohl jsem toto krásné

místo u% také nav#tívit,“ sm$je se Rudolf Javurek.

„V posledních letech se v *esku cítím jako doma. Prakticky nepoci(uji rozdíly mezi %ivo-

tem ve Vídni a v Praze. Je tu spousta schopn'ch a mil'ch lidí, se kter'mi mám hezké

vztahy,“ "íká mu%, kter' létá slu%ebn$ skoro ka%d' t'den a o *esk'ch aeroliniích u% mluví

jako o „na#í národní letecké spole&nosti“.

Jsem spokojen s ob&erstvením, tiskovinami na palub$ i nabídkou nápoj!. Vítám snahu

FIREMNÍ PATRIOT

U koncernu Volkswagen pracuje Rudolf Javurek u% více ne% 36 let, proto%e má rád auta.

Ne% p"i#el do Prahy, p!sobil 28 let ve spole&nosti Porsche Austria ve Vídni. P"ed sv'm

jmenováním do &ela spole&nosti Import Volkswagen Group vedl od prosince 1999 rok

„Ná# úsp$ch stojí na skv$lém t'mu, kter' tady pro na#i spole&nost pracuje. A také

na prodejcích, kte"í podávají velmi dobré v'kony. Prodáváme v *esku nové vozy rychleji,

laughs Javurek. “I have been feeling quite

at home in the Czech Republic recently.

Practically, I feel no difference between

living in Vienna and in Prague. There are

a lot of capable and nice people here that

I have good relationships with.” He flies on

business almost weekly and already refers

to Czech Airlines as to “our national airline

company”. I choose Czech Airlines any time

I can make the choice. Beside it being our

national airline company, I also appreciate

the operative and informal approach at

reservations and requests for changes.

Compared to other airlines

in Central Europe, Czech

Airlines have an excellent

a lehk'ch u%itkov'ch voz!. Stejn$ tak za jeho „vlády“ posílila v *eské republice image

zna&ek Audi i SEAT.

Na otázku, jak se dá srovnat práce v *esku a v Rakousku, odpovídá: „Rozdíl je ve zku-

#enostech lidí. Rakousko %ilo 40 let v sociáln$ tr%ním prost"edí. Tady v#e za&alo teprve

po roce 1989. To bylo velmi napínavé a vzru#ující. Po"ád je#t$ vidíme celou "adu neko-

ne&n'ch mo%ností v mnoha oblastech.“

Mentalitu lidí vidí pan Javurek v obou zemích velmi podobnou: „Jiná u% je t"eba u N$mc!.

Proti nám N$mec velmi rychle dojde k ur&itému bodu, reaguje velmi p"esn$, disciplinova-

n$ a pe&liv$ sleduje sm$rnice. *ech se mnohem více zam$"uje na komunikaci a na vzta-

hy, má v$t#í tendenci ke kreativit$ a improvizaci. A to jsem se v Praze velmi rychle nau&il

oce-ovat.

P"ipustit vztahovou práci a oce-ovat kreativitu, proto%e v kone&ném efektu *e#i dosáhou

sv'mi metodami stejné kvality jako N$mci,“ "íká Rudolf Javurek a pak se smíchem dodává:

„Kdyby mi v#ak, nedejb!h, ho"el d!m, tak bych si p"ál tu n$meckou metodu, proto%e oni

by mnohem d"íve zjistili, %e d!m ho"í, %e pot"ebují vodu, a za&ali by hasit.“

PSYCHOLOGIE, HUDBA A MO+E

Velkou zálibou Rudolfa Javurka je psychologie a hudba. „Obchod je o lidech, a máte-li

psychologick' trénink, v kontaktu s partnery to pomáhá. Stejn$ jako m$ ovliv-uje hudba.

Rád pozoruji dirigenty, jak zvládají orchestr. Ten t'm, slo%en' z mnoha individualit, které

vedle sebe sedí celé roky a t"eba se ani nemají rády. Ale jde o to, aby v ur&itém momen-

tu odevzdaly vynikající v'kon. 1ivot je jako to orchest"i#t$, kde dobr' dirigent dovede t'm

k úsp$chu.“

Pokud zb'vá v nabitém programu Rudolfa Javurka je#t$ n$jaká volná chvíle, rád si zahra-

je tenis. Jeho velkou vá#ní je také jachting. I tam nalézá paralely.

„Vezm$te si navigaci. Na lodi se rychle nau&íte analyzovat cestu, abyste se dostali k cíli.

Malá chybi&ka m!%e vést k nenapraviteln'm #kodám. Zárove- si na mo"i uv$domuji, jak

je &lov$k vlastn$ mali&k'. A nic neznamená, %e v %ivot$ zastáváte vysokou mana%erskou

pozici. Na mo"i se musíte nau&it vycházet s t$mi opravdov'mi silami sv$ta…“

and friendly attitude to their passengers,

in the air and on the ground. I am satisfied

with the refreshments and with the

press available on board. I appreciate the

endeavour for precision and correctness. At

any deviation from the flight schedule, the

passengers get the necessary information.

I fly to Vienna in modern aircraft. And I feel

safe thanks to the information I receive in-

flight, from the well-trained cabin crew.”

CORPORATE PATRIOT

Javurek has been working for Volkswagen

for over 36 years, because he likes cars.

Before coming to Prague, he worked for

Porsche Austria in Vienna for 28 years. He

managed the Czech company Porsche Inter

Auto CZ from December 1999 for a year

before his appointment to the position

of head of Import Volkswagen Group.

“Our success is based on the excellent

team which works for our company here.

And on the sales representatives whose

performance is very good. We sell new

cars in the Czech Republic faster than the

factories manage to manufacture for us,” he

adds.

Despite growing pressure from the compe-

tition, he manages to keep Volkswagen

ahead of other car importers. Under his

management, the image of Audi and SEAT

in the Czech Republic has been given

a substantial boost.

PSYCHOLOGY, MUSIC AND THE SEA

Psychology and music are abiding interests

of Javurek: “Business is about people and if

you are trained in psychology, it helps you

in contact with your partners. Music affects

me in a similar way. I enjoy observing

the conductors and the way they handle

the orchestra. It is a team made of many

individual characters, who sit beside each

other for years – and sometimes don’t even

like each other. But the point is to deliver an

excellent performance at certain moment.

I reckon life is like an orchestra pit, where

the good conductors bring their teams to

success.” If his busy schedule permits him

with some free time, Javurek enjoys a game

of tennis. Yachting is another passion of

his and he also sees life-lessons in this too:

“Think of navigation. On a boat, you quickly

learn to analyze your journey, to make sure

you make it to your target destination.

A small error could imply an irreparable

harm… At the same time, the sea makes me

realize how small a human is. And whether

or not you are a top manager, doesn’t really

matter. At sea, you must learn how to get

on with the true powers of the world…”

WE SELL NEW CARS FASTER THAN THE FACTORIES CAN MANUFACTURE FOR US.

„Nau&il jsem se oce+ovat &eskou kreativitu.““I have learned to appreciate Czech creativity.”

P.ed odletem se sna/te dob.e a dostate-n( vyspat. Únavu a ospalost po cest- do jiného ,asového pásma lze omezit nastavením bio-logick%ch hodin na cílové ,asové pásmo (tím, /e budete chodit spát d0íve nebo pozd-ji). Lehká t-lesná námaha, nap0íklad procházka, vás osv-/í a uvolní, abyste se po p0íletu cítili lépe. Po odbavení je také dobré projít se po terminálu.Bolesti v uchu zp,sobené zm(nou tlaku se zbavíte takto: zacp-te si prsty nos, zav0ete ústa a polkn-te nebo se zav0en%mi ústy jakoby vyfoukn-te vzduch. Pom./e také /v%-ka,ka. Malé d-ti je mo/né zklidnit kojením nebo lahví opat0enou dudlíkem.Do letadla si vezm(te pohodlné, volné oble--ení (nejlépe z p0írodních vláken). Poko/ku p0ed vysou$ením such%m vzduchem v letadle chra+te dobr%m zvlh,ova,em.Jezte v dob(, kdy se b(/n( jí ve va0em cílovém -asovém pásmu. Snídan- bohatá na bílkoviny a ob-d a ve,e0e bohaté na sacha-ridy pom./ou upravit va$e biologické hodiny. Alespo+ p.l hodiny z.sta+te venku na slunci. Prosp-je i pohyb b-hem dne, zvlá$t- m./e-te-li za0adit lehké cvi,ení nebo procházku.

Try to get a good night’s sleep before the day of your departure. Jet lag can be alleviated by adjusting your body clock (going to bed earlier or later) to the time zone of your des-tination. A little light exercise, such as going for a walk, can help you relax and feel more fi t on arrival. It also helps to stroll around the terminal after check-in.To ease ear pain caused by pressure changes, pinch your nose shut, close your mouth, and swallow or blow out against your closed mouth. Chewing gum may also help. For babies, feeding or providing a bottle to suck on may ease discomfort.Wear comfortable, loose fi tting clothes (natural fi bres are best) while fl ying. A good moisturiser will also help protect your skin from dry air on the plane.Eat at times that are normal for your new time zone. A protein-rich breakfast and lunch and a dinner high in carbohydrates may help reset your body clock. Use the sun. Spend at least 1" minutes of your day outdoors, in full sunlight. Staying active during the days should also help, especially if you can get in a light workout or go for a walk.

P O V Í D K AS T O R Y

M ám t' i syny. Dvanáctiletého Mat& je, osmile-tého + imona a -estiletého Kry-tofa. Zatím-co na j in,ch programech dávají skv& lé f i l-

my s m,mi oblíbenci, jsem v den volby miss nucena dívat se promenádu v plavkách a roztomilé (vatlání blon.at,ch Barbín.

Program za&íná. Dvanáct krasavic pluje pódiem. Celá zem$

m$"í jejich proporce, sex-epíl a duchaplnost.

„Mmmmmm,“ mlaskají mí &ty"i chlapi nad &íslem jedna.

„Tohle rozhodn$ ne!“ volají u &ísla dv$.

*íslo t"i by pr' mohlo tak akorát reprezentovat miss ku%elka…

Zato brunetka se &ty"kou ur&it$ vyhraje. P$tka chodí jako ran$ná

klisna. +estka má kobylí ksicht. Blon)atá sedmi&ka je vá%nou kon-

kurencí &ty"ce. Osmi&ka je diblík. Devítka opravdická Zlatovláska.

Desítka je d$sná a má malá prsa. Jedenáctka je u% od pohledu

blbá. A dvanáctka? „Mmmmmm.“ Kruh se uzavírá.

„Tati, budu to zapisovat,“ nabízí se nad#en$ p"ed#kolák Kry#-

tof a uhání pro blok.

P"i promenád$ v plavkách vysv$tluje man%el syn!m, %e u miss

Ihave three sons aged twelve, eight and six, which means

whenever there’s a beauty competition on TV and there

are shows with my favourite actors on other channels,

I have to sit and watch the blonde Barbies babbling and

strutting down the catwalk in bikinis.

The show starts. Twelve beauties float onto the catwalk. The

whole country appraises their measurements, sex-appeal, and

spirit.

“Hmmm,” my boys whir when number 1 walks onto the stage.

“No, definitely not this one,” they dismiss number 2.

Number 3 could be voted Miss Plug... while the brunette, number

4, is sure to win. Number 5 walks like her shoes are on the wrong

feet. Number 6 has an..ah..equine.. face. The blond number 7 is

a serious rival to number 4. Number 8 is a little too elfish. Number

9 is a real golden-haired beauty. Number 10 is truly dreadful, and has

no cleavage. Number 11 is evidently ‘intellectually challenged’. And

number 12? “Hmmm...” We’ve come full circle.

“Dad, I’ll note them down,” says pre-school Christopher

enthusiastically and runs for his pad. As the beauties walk the catwalk

jsou nejd!le%it$j#í proporce:

„90-60-90. Ideál. Kdo se mu blí%í, má #anci. Holka s v$t#ím

zadkem ne% poprsím nem!%e vyhrát, ani kdyby byla sebekrásn$j-

#í, nejbyst"ej#í…“

„V tom p"ípad$ je trojka miss sumo,“ "íká nejstar#í Mat$j o bou-

belce s rozm$ry 95-65-98.

„Já ji zapí#u,“ vykrou%í p"ed#kolák do blo&ku obrovskou, zrca-

dlov$ p"evrácenou trojku.

„Správná %enská musí mít zadek p$kn$ prohnut', dlouh' nohy,“

pou&uje táta.

„Tak to tahle rozhodn$ má,“ míní dvanáctilet'. „Co myslí#, +i-

mone?“

Prost"ední syn ml&í. Vrtí se na %idli. Vyleze z n$j: „Mn$ se líbí t"i-

náctka.“

„Blbe&ku, ta tam v!bec není!!!“

„Zapi# brunetu!“ obrací se Mat$j na nejmen#ího Kry#tofa, kter'

se – na rozdíl od osmiletého bratra – nestydí.

„Co p$tka?“

„Má d$snej ksicht.“

„95-61-90,“ "íká hlasatel.

„Není #patná, má poprsí,“ soudí otec.

„Mám tu kobylu zapsat?“

„Tu snad ne!“ protestuje prost"ední syn +imon a sahá po tele-

vizním ovlada&i. „Nep"epneme to na hrochy?“

„+imone!“ ok"ikne jej man%el. „Podívej se! Tohle je krásná ‚hro-

#ice’.“

Sedmi&ka má rozm$ry: 93-65-93.

„Je soum$rná,“ "íká Mat$j. „Zapi# ji.“

„Osmi&ka vypadá jako Gábina ze #kolky,“ vypískne Kry#t!fek.

„Ty ji miluje#?“ r'pne do bratra +imon a vyhlá#en' proutník ma-

te"ské #koly mu jednu vrazí.

„Gábina nemá #anci, nenarostly jí %ádn' prsa,“ odst"elí diblíka

s &íslem osm znalecky man%el.

„Devítka má v$t#í spodek ne% vr#ek,“ #klebí se Mat$j.

„Mn$ se líbí. Já si Zlatovlásku pí#u,“ "íká Kry#tof.

„Jedenáctku za#krtni. 91-60-90. Ideál.“

„Je nesoum$rná o jednu,“ upozor-uje Kry#tof. „Co myslí# ty,

+imone?“

„Na za&átku jste "íkali, %e je blbá,“ p"ipomíná osmilet' a dodá-

vá: „Mn$ u% ty Barbíny lezou na nervy. Já mám rád mámu.“

„Kry#t!fku, musím uznat, %e jsi odborník na %eny,“ reaguje otec.

„A ty, +imdo, jsi fakt trouba!“

„Jsem odborník na hrochy!“ brání se stydlín.

„Koukej, jak tancuje p$tka,“ vyk"ikuje s nad#ením znalec %ivota

– otec. „Podle tance pozná#, jaká bude v sexu.“

„Co je to v sexu?“ zajímá se p"ed#kolák.

„Vrt$ní pod pe"inou,“ utrousí stru&n$ dvanáctilet'.

„Tahle hraje na flétnu!“

„M$la si vybrat t"eba saxofon. To by bylo aspo- trochu sexy,“

povídá táta.

in bikinis, my husband explains to our sons that for beauty queens

the measurements 90-60-90 are essential. This is the ideal: the closer

to it, the better their chance of winning. A girl with a bigger behind

than breasts can’t win, no matter how beautiful or smart she is... “

“In this case, number three is Miss Sumo,” comments my eldest

Matthew on the fatty measuring 95-65-98.

“I’ll note her down,” says Christopher, and writes a huge reverse

number three in the notebook.

“A proper woman must have a curvy bum and long legs,” his

father remarks.

“This one definitely has,” says the twelve-year old. “What do you

think, Simon?”

The middle son is silent. He shifts on his chair uncomfortably and

then says: “I like number thirteen.”

“Idiot, there’s no number thirteen.”

“Write down the brunette!” Matthew commands young

Christopher who – unlike his eight-year old brother – is not blushing

at all.

“What about number 5?”

“Her face is terrible.”

“95-61-90,” says the speaker.

“She’s not bad, she’s got some ...assets,” father thinks.

“Should I write down the horsey one?”

“No, you can’t mean that one!” the middle son Simon protests

and grabs the TV remote control. “Maybe we could switch over and

watch the hippos.”

“Simon!” his father shouts. “Look, that’s a beautiful hippo!”

Number seven has vital statistics 93-65-93.

“She’s symmetrical, write her down,” Matthew says.

“Number 8 looks like Gail from kindergarten,” Christopher

squeaks.

“You love her!” Simon teases. The Casanova of the kindergarten

then gives him a slap.

“Gail has no chance, she has no breasts,” said father, dismissing

the elfish number 8.

“Number 9 has a bigger bottom than top,” Matthew grins.

“I like her. I’m noting down Golden-Hair,” Christopher says.

“Check out number 11. 91-60-90. Perfect.”

“She’s asymmetrical by one,” Christopher remarks. “What do you

think, Simon?”

“We said first she was dumb,” the eight-year old says, adding.

“I’ve had enough of these Barbies; I like mum.”

“Christopher, I must acknowledge you’re a real expert on

women,” nods the father. “And you Simon, you’re ...really ...not.”

“I’m an expert on hippos,” the blushing boy defends himself.

“Look at number five, the way she dances,” shouts the expert

on life – the father. “By the way they dance you’ll know what they’re

like in bed.”

“Like in bed?” asks the pre-school one.

“Under the blankets,” the twelve-year one responds.

„Mn$ se Zlatovláska líbí, já ji pí#u,“ plní Kry#tof notes kostrba-

t'mi devítkami.

Za&ínají otázky pro finalistky.

„Tahle bude duchaplná,“ sm$je se Mat$j dívce, která má odpo-

v$d$t, co by d$lala s vyhran'm miliónem.

„Ur&it$ bych dala peníze na charitu,“ pitvo"í se otec, je#t$ ne%

kráska promluví. Mat$j na n$j navazuje: „A rodi&!m bych koupila

p$kn' dome&ek.“

„Nebo hro#íka…,“ p"idává se Kry#tof, zatímco kráska sv!dn$

vy#pulí rtíky do obrazovky.

„Milion?“ uculí se. „Utratila bych ho hned. Docela jednodu#e…

za oble&ení.“

„Ta je blbá!“ konstatují v#ichni. „Tati, p"epni to na hrochy!“

„Po&kej. Musíme v$d$t, kdo vyhraje.“

„Vypadá to, %e tahle. Na první pohled zajímavá,“ prohlí%í vít$zku

táta. „P"ipomíná mi Jitku. No jasn$, Jitku Suchou.“

„To byla moje kamarádka, ne% jsem potkal mámu.“

„Mohl jsem mít jinou mámu?“ nechápe Kry#t!fek.

„Ne jinou mámu. M$l jsem jen kamarádku. Mámu jsem si vy-

bral…“

„Na vo%en$ní?“

„Jo.“

„Podle televize?“

„No, podle televize teda…,“ koktá man%el. A pak "ekne: „Ma-

minka je moje královna krásy.“

„Mami, jak' má# míry?“ ptá se Kry#tof a bere zp$t do ruky tu%ku.

„Miss sumo,“ sm$ju se, zatímco táta vysv$tluje, %e u maminek

se na rozm$ry 90-60-90 nehraje.

„A na co se hraje?“ vyzvídá +imon.

„Máma krásn$ voní.“

„Jak jsi to z t' televize poznal?“

“This one plays the flute!”

“She should have chosen a saxophone instead. That would have

been at least a bit sexy,” the father responds.

“I like Golden-Hair and I’m noting her down,” says Christopher,

trying to write number nine in his notebook.

Then there are the questions for the finalists. Number eight

considers the weighty question of what to do with the money if she

wins. “I would definitely donate some money to charity,” grins the

father even before the girl speaks, and Matthew follows: “And I would

buy a nice little house for my parents.”

“Or a hippo...,” adds Christopher while the girl pouts for the

camera.

“A million?” she smiles. “I would spend it all immediately. Just…

on clothes.”

“She’s so stupid,” all agree. “Dad, switch to the hippos.”

“Wait! We need to know who wins.”

“She reminds me of Judith, my friend before I met mum,” the

father says watching the winner.

“Could I have had a different mum?” says Christopher,

confused.

“Not a different mum. I had just a... ‘friend’. But I chose mum...”

“By TV?”

“Well, compared to what’s on TV...” the husband stammers, “your

Mum is my beauty queen.”

“Mum, what are your measurements?” Christopher asks, pen in

hand.

“Miss Sumo,” I laugh while his father explains that for mums 90-

60-90 is not essential.

“And what is?” Simon asks.

“Your mother has a beautiful scent.”

“How did you know from the TV?”
