Karneval v Benátkách i v PrazeCarnivals in Venice and Prague

The Venice Carnival is a famous event that draws millions of tourists to this

Italian city every year. Crowds of people flow through the streets, some of them

wearing expensive masks, others just with painted faces or a hat – all of them

dancing, enjoying themselves. The spell of the carnival draws everybody in and

the frontier between reality and a colourful dream is blurred. Prague has its

carnival too, though it can’t boast such a long tradition as Venice. Nevertheless,

it is worth seeing. Last year’s was voted the second best carnival in Europe,

only Venice being judged as better. This year’s carnivals will take place from

February 13 to 24. Find more information at www.carnevale.venezia.it,

www.carnevale-venezia.com or at www.carnevale.cz.

Nejznám#j"í akcí, která ka$doro&n# p'iláká do italsk!ch Benátek miliony turist(, je benátsk! karneval.

Bíl! turf i pólo ve Sv. Mo'ici White turf and polo in St Moritz

In late January (29th), visitors from all over the

world are drawn to St Moritz to witness an unusual and

very attractive sporting event. On this date, the Cartier

Polo World Cup starts in St Moritz. This is the only polo

tournament that takes place on the ice as the frozen

surface of the St Moritzer sea is transformed into

a unique playground and, later on, into a racetrack.

The White Turf Meeting takes place on the lake for

three consecutive Saturdays in February and the

tradition of the races dates back to 1907. Find details at

www.polostmoritz.com and at www.whiteturf.ch.

Neobvyklá a atraktivní sportovní podívaná vábí do Svatého Mo'ice náv"t#vníky z celého sv#ta. Na sklonku ledna (29. 1.) startuje leto"ní Cartier Polo World Cup – jedin! turnaj v pólu na sv#t#, kter! se hraje na led#. Hladina jezera St. Moritzersee se pro-m#ní v unikátní h'i"t# a pozd#ji také v dostihovou drá-hu. Nebo* po t'i únorové soboty se tady koná tak-zvan! bíl! turf – ko)ské závody, jejich$ tradice sahá do roku 1907. V"e podstatné najdete na www.polostmoritz.com a www.whiteturf.ch.

Budete-li mít cestu do Barcelony (www.barcelona.com), ur&it# se vypravte po sto-pách Antonia Gaudího. Mu$e, kter! se stal symbolem m#sta. Práv# jeho návrhy a de-sign mají lví podíl na jedine&nosti Barcelony. Dnes je pova$ován za jednoho z nejori-gináln#j"ích architekt( v"ech dob. Svou nejv#t"í zakázku – Sagrada Familia – kostel Svaté rodiny – dostal je"t# p'edtím, ne$ se proslavil. V dob# jeho tragického skonu v roce 1926 m#la katedrála 18 v#$í. Stavba nebyla dodnes podle Gaudího návrh( do-kon&ena, m#lo by se tak stát v roce 2026.

To visit Barcelona (www.barcelona.com) is to follow in the footsteps of Antonio

Gaudí, the man who has become synonymous with the city. His designs have made

today’s Barcelona unique and he is considered to be one of the most original architects

of all time. He received his biggest commission – the stunning Sagrada Familia – before

he became a worldwide celebrity. By the time of his death in 1926, the cathedral had

18 towers and construction is still not finished with completion scheduled for 2026.

%eská národní budova v New YorkuBohemian National Hall in New York

P!nk vyrá$í na turnéP!nk goes on tour

P'i cest# do New Yorku máte op#t "anci nav"tívit %eskou národní budovu, která je ji$ od svého zrodu centrem &eské kultury a národních zvyk(. P'ed 111 lety, kdy se na ni krajané ve Spojen!ch státech po jednom dolaru skládali, byla pro n# úto&i"t#m, které jim v dalekém sv#t# p'ipomínalo domov a tradice. Dnes reprezentuje na"i republiku na Man-hattanu jako multifunk&ní sídlo pro pot'eby diplomacie, kultury a obchodu.

Zp#va&ka P!nk (www.pinkspage.com), dr$itelka cen Grammy a platinov!ch desek, se p'edstaví na sv#tovém turné ve dnech 26. února a$ 1. kv#tna. P!nk vystoupí v Evro-p#, Austrálii i na Novém Zélandu. Pokud pat'íte mezi její fanou"ky a rádi byste ji vid#li na vlastní o&i, pak "n(ra po Evrop# startuje v belgick!ch Antverpách 26. února, pokra&u-je p'es Nizozemsko, +v!carsko, Ma,arsko, N#mecko a Irsko do Anglie, kde se poslední koncert p'ed odletem do Austrálie uskute&ní 2. kv#tna v Lond!n#.

A trip to New York affords you the opportunity to visit the Bohemian National

Hall, which has been serving as the centre of Czech culture and folk customs since

its establishment there 111 years ago. Its construction was financed by a fund-raising

collection among countrymen and it was to serve as their place of refuge, reminding them

of the distant mother country and its traditions. Today, it represents the Czech Republic in

Manhattan as a multifunctional residence serving diplomacy, culture and trade.

Singer P!nk (www.pinkspage.com), the winner of Grammy awards and holder of

multiple platinum records, will be on tour from February 26 to May 1. P!nk will perform in

Europe, Australia and New Zealand. If you are a fan and wish to see her live, then the tour

starts in Antwerp on February 26, and continues on through the Netherlands, Switzerland,

Hungary, Germany and Ireland to England. The last performance in England will take place

on May 2 in London. The tour will then continue in Australia.

Symbolem, ikonou !eského b"#eckého ly#ování byla po dlouhá léta Kate$ina Neu-mannová. Po ní ale na závodních tratích zazá$ila nová hv"zda – Luká% Bauer. Na olympij-sk&ch hrách v Turín" získal st$íbrnou medaili na patnáctikilometrové trati klasickou techni-kou, loni vyhrál jako první 'ech v historii Sv"tov& pohár a na mistrovství sv"ta v Liberci by cht"l dosáhnout na medaili. Bauer ale jenom nely#uje. Studuje v Ostrav" bá(skou %kolu a za t$i roky by si m"l p$ed jméno za!ít psát in#en&rsk& titul.

Pro" jste si vybral parcelu pro sv#j d#m práv$ na Bo%ím Daru? Je to drahá lokalita?Není to sice Václavák, ale není nejlacin#j"í. Bo$ák jsem si vybral hlavn# kv(li tomu, $e jsem tam u$ jako mal! kluk ly$oval a ná" oddíl z Ostrova nad Oh'í tam m#l chatu. Líbí se mi zdej"í p'íroda, u$ se objevily i nové porosty na míst# pr(myslov!mi exhalacemi udu"e-n!ch stromk(. Turisté mohou zajít na bo$ídarské ra"elini"t#, které nemá v %esku obdo-by. A musím se pochlubit, podle vzoru n#meckého skokana Jense Weissfl oga, kter! bydlí na druhé stran# hranice v Oberwiesenthalu a je po n#m pojmenován okruh dlouh! 24,5 km, na Bo$áku vznikl osmikilometrov! okruh Luká"e Bauera – Luká" Bauer Tour, kter! vede &esko-n#meck!m pohrani&ím. Dá se tam jezdit na ly$ích i na kole nebo cho-dit p#"ky.

Lidé, kte&í bydlí v rodinném dom$, si toho v$t'inou dovedou dost ud$lat vlastní-ma rukama. Jak jste na tom vy?Spí" d#lám na zahrad#. S bráchou jsme ale postavili docela p#kn! d'ev#n! plot. Já jsem z lanov!ch sítí vytvo'il d#tskou proléza&ku, ale málem jsem si do sebe zapletl ruce jako váno&ku. Jinak jsem vymaloval, ud#lal poli&ky a se"rouboval nábytek. Práce se d'evem m# docela baví.

For years, the Czech Republic’s most

famous icon in cross-country skiing

was Kate!ina Neumannová. But a new

star, Luká" Bauer, is now fi rmly in the

ascendant, having clinched silver in the

Men’s 15 kilometre Classic event at the

Olympic Games in Torino in 2006, and

last year became the fi rst Czech in history

to be crowned World Cup champion. Now

he’d like to win a medal at the Nordic

World Ski Championship in Liberec.

Bauer does more than just ski; he also

studies Mining Engineering and in three

years time will complete his degree in

that subject.

Why did you opt to build your home

on land at Bo!í Dar? Is it an expensive

location?

Well it isn’t Wenceslas Square, but it’s not

the cheapest of areas, either. I chose Bo$ák

(slang for Bo$í Dar) because I skied there

as a little boy and our ski club from Ostrov

nad Oh%í had a lodge there. I like the

countryside in this area and there is even

new undergrowth in places where the trees

were previously destroyed by industrial

fumes. Tourists can visit a peat bog at Bo$í

Dar that is unrivalled anywhere else in the

Czech Republic. I have to boast a little: like

German ski jumper Jens Weissflog, who

lives across the border in Oberweisenthal,

I have an eight kilometre run at Bo$í Dar,

which runs on both sides of the border,

named after me, the Luká! Bauer circuit –

Luká! Bauer Tour. You can walk, ski or bike

along it.

They say that people who have family

homes are also usually fairly skilled

with their hands: would you say that

is your case?

I tend to work more in the garden, but my

brother and I built a pretty nice wooden

fence. I made a children’s jungle gym using

netting but I almost got completely tangled

up doing it! Apart from that, I painted the

whole house, put up the shelves, and put

together the furniture. I think I quite enjoy

working with wood.

Jak! jste vlastn$ man%el, kdy% po&ád n$kde cestujete a závodíte?No jo, my ly$a'i jsme takoví cirkusáci. Ale k té otázce: umyju nádobí, vypravím d#ti do "kolky. A pokud byste ode mne cht#l sly"et, jak si ve&er zalezu do postele a &tu He-mingwaye nebo Remarqua, tak to nehrozí. Já jsem holt spí" na to "vihadlo!

V posledních letech se ly%ování dost prom$nilo. U% se neb$hají jenom intervalo-vé závody (na tra( se vyjí%dí po 30 sekundách) bez kontaktu s diváky, p&i kter!ch b$%ci zmizeli do lesa a za dv$ hodiny se vrátili na stadion.Te, se hodn# b#hají sprinty, závody s hromadn!m startem, kdy diváci vidí na tra* a sle-dují v!voj závodu. Práv# hroma,áky p'inesly do ly$ování prvek cyklistiky, kde se vy&kává, taktizuje. Jedinec nemá moc "anci pelotonu ujet. A tak se stane, $e se dejme tomu závod na padesát kilometr( scvrkne na taktick! boj a rozhodne t'eba a$ posledních p#t kilomet-r(. M($e se stát, $e nevyhraje ten nejlep"í, fyzicky nejlépe p'ipraven!, ale ten nejchyt'ej"í!

Nap&íklad ve fotbale nebo v hokeji se fauluje, hru provázejí nedovolené zákroky. Dochází k n$"emu podobnému také v ly%ování?Samoz'ejm#, i kdy$ h(lkou mi oko zatím na"t#stí je"t# nikdo nevypíchl! V malém prostoru závodní trat# je samoz'ejm# tla&enice. O r(zné strkanice a p'i"lapování h(lek není nouze. N#kdo ale jede vylo$en# agresivn#, bourá to na trati jako v hokeji. Kdy$ mi

M.-E SE STÁT, -E NEVYHRAJE TEN NEJLEP+Í, FYZICKY NEJLÉPE P/IPRAVEN0, ALE TEN NEJCHYT/EJ+Í!

Given how often you have to be away

to race, how would you rate yourself as

a husband?

Oh yeah, it’s a bit of a circus for us skiers.

However, to answer the question: I do my

share of the dishes and drop the kids off at

school. If you’re looking to hear that I climb

into bed at night to read Hemingway or

Remarque, I’m afraid there’s no danger of

that happening. I’m more the sports type.

Skiing has changed a lot in the

last few years. Today you don’t

just have individual interval starts

(with individual racers separated by

30 seconds) where skiers disappear

into the forest at the start and then

reappear at the stadium two hours later.

Now you see much more interaction

with spectators.

You see a lot of sprints run now, races with

mass starts, where viewers can see the whole

track and can see developments during the

race. Mass starts borrowed an element

from cycling, where you have to use tactics

and wait to make your move. A single racer

hasn’t got much chance to break away from

the rest of the peloton. What happens is

that, say, a 50 kilometre race comes down to

a battle of tactics and the last fi ve kilometres

can decide the outcome. It’s not necessarily

always the best racer in the best condition,

who wins – it’s the smartest!

In sports like football and hockey you

see a lot of fouls and breaking of the

rules. Is there anything similar in cross-

-country skiing?

Of course, although no one has poked out

my eye with their ski pole yet! You can have

interference in a closely-packed race: there’s

a fair amount of pushing and jostling for

position as well as stepping on other racers’

poles. Some racers, though, really crash

faster. It occurs to you that they might be

taking something but unless you catch them

at it there’s no way of knowing. According

to the anti-doping commission a skier is

positive if they have a banned substance in

their bloodstream, but no one asks how the

substance may have gotten there. It’s unlikely,

but not impossible, that someone could spike

your bottle lying in the snow before a race.

That’s why I guard mine.

You yourself were never tempted to try

a performance-enhancing substance?

I’ve discussed the issue many times with my

trainer Mira Petrásek. Our idea, like Kate%ina

Neumannová’s, is that you can race ‘high’ on

something like poppy seed buns! Drugs are

one rollercoaster – risking prestige and above

all health – that I never wanted to get on.

Would you say there is good money in

cross-country skiing?

It’s not bad, although it depends on what

one considers ‘good’. Take my house at Bo$í

Dar: I could afford something like that here

but I probably could not afford the same in

Hawaii… unless I built it out of sand! I make

enough for my family and myself. In World

Cup races the winner earns 15 thousand

Swiss francs before taxes, second place ten

thousand, third, seven-and-a-half. There are

earnings all the way down to the tenth place.

I can’t complain. If I wanted to quit racing

tomorrow, I wouldn’t have to find a new

job straight away. I could go without work

for a year, to consider my options, and fi nd

something I enjoyed.

What about fame? Do people recognise

you on the street?

I have gotten to where I wanted to be and

I fulfi lled my childhood dream. I enjoy fame

and of course I get recognised, although

mainly in the mountains and it’s nothing

compared to Neumannová. The flip-side,

fairly often, is the loss of privacy. My friends

head out somewhere and joke around but

I can’t, because I have to consider that people

know me as Luká! Bauer, who can’t just go

and do any old dumb thing.

O hlavním m#st# Lombardie sami Italové tvrdí, $e je arogantní a nafoukané. Milán vás bu, nadchne, nebo otráví, ale rozhodn# nenechá nikoho chladn!m. Milá)ané opravdu p(sobí nafoukan#, jsou toti$ p'esv#d&eni, $e v"e podstatné pro Itálii se odehrává práv# zde. V ur&itém ohledu je to pravda, proto$e $ivot m#sta tepe v rytmu byznysu a veletrh(.

DESIGN, MÓDA, VELETRHY Ty nejznám#j"í a nejvyhledávan#j"í veletrhy se orientují na oblast módy a designu, o n#j$ se Italové velice zajímají. V"ak také v tomto oboru platí za sv#tovou "pi&ku. Studovat design v Milán# je presti$ní zále$itost a o absolventy zvu&n!ch jmen není na místních "kolách nouze. Pro"li jimi t'eba módní návrhá' Stefano Gabbana, designé'i Pier Lissoni a Oscar Buratti &i fotograf Oliviero Toscani.Nep'ekvapí tedy, $e Milán hostí jeden z nejv#t"ích veletrh( designu na sv#t#. /íká se, $e mezi designéry samotn!mi je pova$ován za událost &íslo jedna. Jde o Salone Internazionale del Mobile. Leto"ní ro&ník prob#hne od 22. do 27. dubna a podobn# jako loni nebudou mezi vystavovateli chyb#t ani &e"tí zástupci. Stejn# jako na design si Italové potrpí i na módu. Milán sám pak léta bojuje s Pa'í$í o neofi ciální titul hlavního m#sta evropské módy. Událostí sezóny je Fashion Week, kde své kolekce prezentují v#hlasné zna&ky. Kolekce dámské módy pro podzim a zimu roku 2009 budou p'edstaveny od 26. února do 1. b'ezna.

Italians themselves feel that the

capital of Lombardy is arrogant and

conceited. It is indeed true that Milan will

either entrance or frustrate you, but it will

certainly not leave you cold. The Milanese

can really come across as being stuck-up,

confi dent that everything of importance in

Italy is taking place in their city. In a way

they have a point, because the city pulses

with the rhythms of its many business and

trade fairs.

DESIGN, FASHION, FAIRS

The most famous and sought-after events focus

on the realms of fashion and design, in which

the Italians, of course, excel. It is no surprise

to anyone that they dominate this arena; to

study design in Milan is a matter of prestige

and some of the best-known names graduated

from Milanese schools. The fashion designer

Stefano Gabbana, designers Pier Lissoni and

Oscar Buratti, and the photographer Olivier

Toscani are all alumni.

It is therefore not surprising that Milan hosts

one of the largest design fairs in the world,

the Salone Internazionale del Mobile. Top

designers themselves allegedly consider this

the world’s premiere event. This year it will

take place from April 22nd to 27th and like

last year, Czech exhibitors will be represented

as well.

Besides design, Italians are also very particular

about fashion and Milan has for years been

competing with Paris for the unoffi cial title

of the capital of European fashion. The main

event of the season is the so-called “Fashion

Week”, when renowned brands debut their

collections. Collections of women’s fashion

for the fall and winter seasons of 2009 will be

presented between February 26 and March 1.

WHERE TO BE SEEN

Milan is a peculiar city. Whoever is somebody

or who WANTS to be somebody, has to be seen

in the trendy restaurants, bars and clubs. The

internet features a regular update on the list of

“in” places to be seen. In for today, for example,

is the bar Il Roialto in Piero della Francesca

street where the fashionable interior features

one real stand out feature; the 24 meter-long

bar table, an exact replica of an American bar

from the 1930s. The establishment’s claim to

fame is that this bar is one of the biggest in

Europe. If uncertain, then perhaps you should

go for the traditional. Even in capricious

Milan, you will fi nd places that have remained

popular for years, constant attractions for

socialites and the glitterati. Among them

are the restaurant and coffeehouse, Savini,

located in the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele

II. and the venerable Boeucc in Belgioioso

square – the oldest Milanese restaurant,

with a history stretching back to 1696. Today,

after more than three hundred years, a visit to

this gorgeous historic palace continues to be

a unique gourmet experience. Typical Milanese

cuisine is a specialty and we recommend that

you sample the Milanese risotto with peas and

saffron (“Risotto alla Milanese”) or the “Steak

alla Voronoff”. Among the big three of the

most renowned places, “Hollywood” simply

must be mentioned: this is the disco, which

the Milanese claim is the most famous in the

world. Certainly, its address at Corso Como

15 is regularly frequented by supermodels,

businessmen, fashion photographers,

producers, actors and footballers. On her

recent visit to Milan, even celebrity socialite

Paris Hilton felt the need to pay this club

a visit.

SHOPPING AND FOOTBALL

Milan is a Mecca for design and business and

also a city devoted to football. Those who

live to shop fashion and fashionable things

will not be disappointed either. This is after

all, the home of the Golden Milanese triangle

(sometimes even a quadrangle actually).

Shopping paradise starts on Montenapoleone,

a street that is similar to Fifth Avenue in New

York or the Champs-Élysées and is ranked

among the world’s 15 most expensive streets.

The zone is further delineated by the streets

of Sant’ Andrea, Gesú, Borgospesso and della

Spiga. The most prestigious fashion brands

also have their boutiques there.

For the dedicated fan, to visit Milan is to

pay homage at the shrine to football – the

Guiseppe Meazza stadium, also known as San

Siro. It is here that two European superclubs

take turns – Inter Milan and AC Milan. True,

the ravages of time have left their mark on this

football sanctuary, but it is still an impressive

arena. Up to 85 700 spectators can watch the

Pokud u$ budete v t#chto místech, pak si musíte prohlédnout i Gallerii Vittorio Emanuele II., pasá$, která spojuje nám#stí della Scala a nám#stí Duomo. Sídlí tady stylové obchody, kavárny a restaurace. Nejúchvatn#j"í v"ak je její st'echa, zavr"ená úst'ední koulí.

MONUMENTS

Milan is not Prague, Rome or Florence, but still

there are places and monuments worth seeing.

First, one should not miss the majestic Duomo,

one of the most important structures of Italian

Gothic style. While you are in the vicinity, you

must also have a look at the Galleria Vittorio

Emanuele II, an arcade connecting the della

Scala and Duomo squares, which houses

stylish shops, coffee-houses and restaurants.

The most breathtaking sight is undoubtedly

the roof, topped by its central globe. It was

during the construction of this wonder that

steel and glass were used in Italy in such a way

for the fi rst time.

If you walk through the arcade, you will fi nd

yourself near one of the most famous opera

buildings in the world – the Teatro alla Scala.

You can judge for yourself how successful (or

unsuccessful) its completion was and Italians

themselves still lead heated discussions on the

topic. Lovers of fi ne art will certainly not miss

an opportunity to view Leonardo da Vinci’s

famous painting “The Last Supper”, which

graces the Santa Maria delle Grazie convent.

HRADECKÉ KO#ENYPochází z rodiny, která ji$ po generace $ije ve v!chodo&eském Hradci Králové.

HRADEC ROOTS

Judge-Fürstová comes from a family that

has lived in the east-Bohemian town of

Hradec Králové for generations. While she

herself was born in Pelh%imov, her mother’s

hometown, she grew up in Hradec and

won’t hear a bad word about it: “I consider

Hradec Králové to be a Czech marvel: it is

a gorgeous place on the confl uence of the

Labe and Orlice rivers, originally a dowry

town of the Czech queens, where various

architectural styles–bearing the imprints

of each period from its founding in 1225

– mix with true ease and elegance. All that

is a part of one of the most sophisticated

city plans in Europe, designed by the

famous architect of the beginning of the

20th century, Josef Go&ár. I like to stroll

through the arcades of the Old Square

and admire the architecture of the White

tower, the brick Gothic style of the

Church of the Holy Ghost, or the colorful

facades of the Renaissance houses.

Decades ago, Josef Go&ár strived to create

a style that would refl ect the newly won

national independence. Therefore he, in

his architecture, attempted to capture

and continue the essence of what he

considered typically Czech.”

Míla Judge-Fürstová has been an expatriot

for 12 years already. Of her Czech origins,

she says: “I don’t hide my Czech roots, on

the contrary. Repeatedly I am fascinated

by the interest with which not only the

British, but also world audiences approach

this aspect of my art. You know, I think that

we Czechs are a very interesting nation

that really has a lot to offer… A nation that

is imaginative, creative and original. My

work is, in a way, similar to our country:

at fi rst sight, it will probably not astonish

you with its size or draw you in with its

feats of conquest. Rather, you have to

fi nd your own way to it. If you possess the

ability to stop for a moment and look into

its depths, it will reward you with riches

that you will always keep returning to. It

offers you a chance to observe the world

and to observe yourself also, each time in

a different light. My Czech roots infl uence

my art in the same way as the roots of each

tree infl uence the canopy, predefi ning it

and refl ecting themselves in their essence.

From the roots of a lime tree, a spruce is

unlikely to spring.”

TO BE LIKE A LITTLE CHILD OR AN

ALIEN

The “roots and canopy” of Míla Judge-

-Fürstová have their origins in the region

of East Bohemia. She recalls how, from the

tender age of fi ve, she wanted to become

a graphic artist.

Then, when she (at the age of fourteen)

started to study at the Decorative Arts

High School in "i$kov in Prague, the world

of art opened up to her. “Then I told myself

– so, now it is here! Now I am becoming

an artist! Therefore, I must quickly fi nd

my artistic language, as all the great

artists have done. That, however, didn’t

happen.” Yet, she is still convinced that

art is about searching: “But it is a strange

way of searching: while you, as an artist,

are looking for a way, the way usually fi nds

you. I think that generally it is important

to have faith that what you are doing has

a meaning. And whatever road you take,

what you discover is exactly what was

meant for you to discover. Despite the fact

that this is how I have been feeling it lately,

I often grapple with my work and I only see

later, like in some rearview mirror, that all

I have gone through has had its meaning

and that the work that has come out of it

probably already has that singular language

I started to search for at fourteen – that

it is not just a refl ection of certain moods

but a gradual mapping of who I am as

a person.”

Judge-Fürstová’s artwork radiates tender-

ness: you can find the lightness of


– 34 –


angels’ wings in it, a lady with a handgun,

mysticism and the omnipresent quest to

fi nd new beauty in the commonplace and

the ordinary. “I am probably trying to be a

bit like a little child. I want to be fascinated

by everything; I want to have that ability

to look at each thing as if seeing it for the

first time… Like a child or an alien! If I

manage to retain this capacity, then I will

always be able to celebrate in some way

that which is visible, and also that which

becomes invisible under the guise of

banality. Not just art but life itself is then

more interesting. I read somewhere that

the fact that children perceive everything

around them as something new means that

life seems much longer to them, hours

and days don’t melt into each other but

have much sharper borders as defi ned by

experiences that are always perceived as

being new.”

PLACES SHE LIKES TO RETURN TO

Míla spent her childhood in a region with

a rich history, fi lled with natural beauty

and sights that are unique. This is a region

where poor peasants became glassmakers

and painters of glass, creating fragile

beauty, and it enchanted Míla. “There are

also places in the vicinity of Hradec I like

to revisit. One of them is the spectacular

Kuks castle, the façade of which is

embellished with the baroque statuary of

Matyá! Bernard Braun. I also very much

like Opo&no and Nové M#sto nad Metují.”

She goes on to list some of the endearing

sights of Czech itself: “The list of places

my foreign friends are not allowed to

miss features unique landscapes full of

almost surrealist sandstone formations

such as in Adr!pach and 'esk( ráj. Finally,

I cannot omit mentioning the splendor of

the Krkono!e mountains – located just

an hour’s drive from Hradec, they offer

Malebn& zámek v Novém M"st" nad MetujíThe beautiful castle in Nové M#sto nad Metují

pod rou"kou v"ednosti. Nejen um#ní, ale i $ivot je tak zajímav#j"í… N#kde jsem &etla, $e práv# to, $e malé d#ti vnímají v"e kolem sebe jako n#co nového, znamená, $e $ivot jim p'ipadne daleko del"í, hodiny a dny se neslévají do sebe, ale mají daleko ost'ej"í hranice defi nované zá$itky, které jsou vnímány v$dy jako nové.“

MÍSTA, KAM SE RÁDA VRACÍMíla pro$ila d#tství v kraji s bohatou historií, plném p'írodních krás a pam#tihodností, které jinde nenajdete. Oblast, ve které se v minulosti z chud!ch rolník( stávali sklá'i a malí'i skla, kte'í v podh('í Krkono" tvo'ili svoji k'ehkou krásu, Míle u&arovala.„I v okolí Hradce jsou místa, kam se ráda vracím. Jedním z nich je velkolep! zámek Kuks, jeho$ pr(&elí zdobí barokní souso"í od Matyá"e Bernarda Brauna. Mám velmi ráda také Opo&no &i Nové M#sto nad Metují. Do seznamu míst, která mí zahrani&ní p'átelé nemohou nevid#t, pat'í jedine&ná krajina plná tém#' surrealistick!ch pískovcov!ch formací – Adr"pach a %esk! ráj. No a nakonec nemohu nezmínit nádheru Krkono", které jsou asi hodinu jízdy autem od Hradce a nabízejí nezapomenutelné procházky v lét# a skv#lé ly$ovaní v zim#.“P'írodní krásy a pam#tihodnosti v!chodních %ech nepot'ebují slovní komentá'. I v tom mají n#co spole&ného s um#leckou tvorbou Míly Judge-Fürstové. Ani ona nepot'ebuje slova, a p'esto uchvátí. „Libuji si v tom, $e vizuální 'e& není ohrani&ená "ablonkami slov, která, jak jsem zjistila, se mezi jednotliv!mi jazyky vlastn# nep'ekr!vají. Tím myslím to, $e pou$ijete-li krátkou v#tu t'eba o p#ti stejn!ch slovech v %echách &i v Anglii, v!znam se m($e diametrál-n# li"it, závisí to na jiném vnímání… Um#ní je 'e&í univerzální. Odkud pramení? Asi z n#jaké základní lidskosti, kterou máme v"ichni spole&nou… A proto pro m# osobn# je práv# tato 'e& ta, která stojí za prohlubování a z které si &asto odná"ím nejv#t"í radost z komunikace.“

unforgettable walks during the summer

and great skiing in the winter.” The natural

beauty and landmarks of eastern Bohemia

do not require a verbal commentary and

in that regard, they have something in

common with Míla Judge-Fürstová’s art.

She lays out her philosophy of art candidly:

“I revel in the fact that visual language isn’t

circumscribed by templates of words which,

as I have found out, don’t really overlap

among the different languages. What

I mean by this is that if you, for example,

use a short sentence with the same fi ve

words in Bohemia and in England, the

meaning can by diametrically different, it

is a matter of different perceptions...

Art, by contrast, is a universal language.

Where does it stem from? Probably from

some basic humanity common to all of

us and that’s why for me personally this

language is the one worth exploring and

which often gives me the greatest pleasure

to express.”

Ve Dvo'e Králové, v údolí potoka Net'eby, je proslulá zoolo-gická zahrada. Vznikla na území p(vodního soukromého parku s nev"ední budovou – kopií renesan&ního zámku, jeho$ originální p'edlohu najdete nedaleko Vídn#. Královédvorská zoo je v rám-ci africké specializace jedinou zahradou na sv#t#, kde se poda-'ilo rozmno$it kriticky ohro$enou severní formu nosoro$ce tupo-nosého.

In the valley of the Net%eba rivulet in Dv)r Králové is situated

a famous zoological garden, which was built on the premises of

a privately-owned park in the centre of which there stands an

unusual building, in fact a copy of a Renaissance chateau, the

original of which is located in the suburbs of Vienna. The zoo in

Dv)r Králové specializes in African animals and it is the only zoo

in the world that has been successful in reproducing the most-

-endangered northern white rhino.

V blízkosti Dvora Králové najdete barokní areál Kuks, kter! v letech 1694 a$ 1724 nechal vybudovat hrab# +pork jako rozlehl! láze)sk! areál, kter! se v dobách své nejv#t"í slávy dokonce roz-kládal na obou b'ezích Labe. Nejv#t"í zájem vzbuzuje galerie plas-tik dvanácti Ctností a dvanácti Ne'estí vytvo'en!ch, krom# jediné, socha'em Matyá"em Braunem.

Near Dv)r Králové stands the Baroque complex of Kuks, built

in 1694–1724 by Count *pork. The site was originally designed to

serve as a spa and at the peak of its fame it occupied both banks of

the river Labe. The most interesting sight on the premises is a gallery

of twenty-four statues, representing the twelve Virtues and twelve

Vices. All of them except one were created by the famous sculptor,

Matyá! Braun.

Scenes that houses, among other creations, the renowned

Probo!t model, a work by the folk carvers Josef Probo!t, Josef

Kapucián and Josef Friml. The model is over a hundred years old

and it is almost entirely made of wood. It contains around 2,000

manually carved items and figures, which are driven by a special

mechanism. In 1999, Probo!t’s mechanical crèche was declared

a part of the National Heritage.

Krakono! brewery is located in the very centre of Trutnov and it makes five

different beers. The history of beer in Trutnov dates back to ancient times as

Trutnov was one of the towns loyal to the King that exercised the right to brew

beer at the time they were established, i.e. from 1260. The local inhabitants were

very proud of this fact and they vigorously defended it against “competitors”.

Whenever a strange brew of beer was found near the town, it was immediately

confiscated and poured out on the ground.

Hronov and Náchod, through Metuje valley and it ends in the Orlické Mountains. It was

first marked with signs in 1921 when Alois Jirásek came personally to attend the opening

ceremony. In winter, it serves as a ski-crossing route.

business! The culinary status of the British

metropolis has been thoroughly revitalized.

Goodbye to fi sh-and-chips and boring beef

with boiled vegetables! Presently, London

even exports its best chefs, many of whom

have become celebrities. The city on the

River Thames is multicultural down to the

plates of food it serves. This is especially true

in the case of the Cinnamon Club near the

Parliament itself, where politicians, advisors

and lobbyists meet over Indian food.

The renowned Chinese restaurant and tea-

-house Yauatcha may be found in Soho; while

Mick Jagger’s and Russell Crowe’s favourite

restaurant, Zuma, serves up some of the

fi nest Japanese food. Here Gordon Ramsay,

international culinary phenomenon, performs

his magic in his fl agship restaurant in Chelsea,

as well as in Claridge’s hotel.

Yet the hottest property at the moment is

Scotts – a traditional English restaurant in

Mayfair, which used to be – and has



– 44 –

become once more – a London institution.

Here, in an unashamedly lavish environment,

you can see the world’s fi nancial aristocracy

at table. One must be careful of course:

meeting in a much-trumpeted restaurant

isn’t always tactical! For example, there is

a rule that anyone who comes for lunch to

the Savoy Grill, either negotiates or concludes

a deal. Thus, there is a built-in disadvantage

in dining there, as everyone then knows who

you are dealing with. If you want to head off

rumour and gossip, then perhaps you would

do better to get yourself a box at Green’s or

in the Oyster Bar, typical English restaurants

serving up some very fi ne fi sh and game. As

evening approaches, you could do worse than

to pop into the Vertigo Bar, which, as its name

alludes to, is located at the top of London’s

highest building, a venue which also attracts

bankers like a magnet.

and most fashionable addresses in London,

with lots of Victorian houses, elegant

boutiques and quality antique shops. Here,

are also to be found Kensington Palace and

Kensington Gardens, the Victoria and Albert

Museum, the Royal Albert Hall, to say

nothing of Harrods and Harvey Nichols.

One must not overlook The West End,

the cultural heart of London, with all its

musicals, theatres, Soho and the British

Museum. It is also home to Fortnum &

Mason (which is the smartest and most

sophisticated department store in town)

which, for over one hundredandfi fty years,

has been linked to the royal family like no

other store in the world. Its fame is based

especially on its two fl oors of delicatessen

and food products.

WHERE TO GO

If you have some time left, try doing something

a bit differently. For example, viewed from the

river, it looks like a different city altogether.

Even those who know a thing or two about

London will be surprised by the difference of

perspective this offers. The way one views the

Big Ben, Tower Bridge or St. Paul’s Cathedral

is changed forever. The same goes for the

London Eye, which offers the best views of

the city. Suspended in a graceful arc over the

city streets, you can sip wine or champagne

with strawberries while enjoying the view

– simply reserve a capsule in advance.

Your business partners will certainly not fail

to appreciate it if you mention that you have

visited the Tate Modern – an excellent new

art gallery constructed from a rebuilt power

station. Names to drop into the conversation

also include the Golden Hind, a functional

replica of the ship on which Captain Francis

TRIK NA ZÁV"RPokud jste zapomn#li ve víru obchodních jednání koupit dárek, netrapte se. Na Heathrow jsou skv#lé obchody práv# pro tuto p'íle$itost. V terminálech 3 a 4 je pobo&ka Harrods, mají tam butiky Chanel, Smythson a Thomas Pink, zatímco v terminálu 4 je navíc obchod s dámsk!m prádlem zna&ky Agent Provocateur. U$ jméno napovídá, $e po návratu z Lond!na nemusíte pot#"it jen man$elku, ale i sebe.

Drake sailed around the world. To clear your

head and take the air, then you absolutely

must take a walk through Hampstead in

North London, home to many artists, writers

and musicians. This is a district that, despite

its bohemian inhabitants, has preserved its

rural atmosphere.

HOW TO ACT

Old wisdom claims that the best way to start

a conversation with the British is by making

a remark about the weather. In itself, this

can seem a little surprising though, as there

seems to be but one type of weather in

London (foggy and wet).

The official guide warns those coming to

London on business never to ask anyone,

what does he/she do or how much he/she

earns. In addition, do not embrace anyone

the French or American way, unless they

are really good friends – and don’t shorten

their names. If someone introduces himself

as Michael or Archibald, he is neither Mike

nor Archie to you. This isn’t America.

It will probably go down well if you show

genuine sympathy to the fact that the British

are so unsuccessful in the sports that they

invented. You can, however, hypocritically

mention that Manchester United (“The

Reds”), Chelsea (“The Blues”) or Arsenal

(“The Gunners”) are the best team in the

world. You should, nevertheless, always keep

the remark to yourself that it is especially

thanks to players coming from abroad.

Naturally, we need not explain that the game

we are talking about is not called soccer in

London – but “football” or “footie”.

A LAST TRICK

If, in the vortex of your business meetings,

you forgot to buy a present, do not stress

yourself. Heathrow Airport features wonderful

shops for this very opportunity. Terminals

3 and 4 feature branches of Harrods, as

well as boutiques of Chanel, Smythson and

Thomas Pink, while in Terminal 4, you will

fi nd the Agent Provocateur lingerie store,

one sure way to express that, despite the

glamour of International Travel, you are glad

to be home.

I am standing in f ront o f an

inconspicuous looking house in a village

near Prague, hesitating and wondering

whether this is the right address. Is

it possible that this building houses

a workshop in which top combustion

engines for modellers are produced? Mr

Ivan Kasl opens the gate and he leads me

to his workshop in the basement. There, on

a drawing board, are his calculations and

designs for combustion engines which he

puts into his own model planes.

“I make the planes (the smallest of which

has a wing-span of about four metres) to

envelop my engines,” he says, gradually

revealing the fascinating story of a lifelong

love of engines. He inherited the craft

from his father who established the

home workshop when developing a lathe

for the production of cog-wheels. Since

then, the very same lathe has given birth

to many a home-made engine. Ivan Kasl

started learning the craft as a small boy:

“When I started my apprenticeship, I knew

everything,” he says, remembering his

apprenticeship in JAWA factory. He is to

be believed, having constructed his fi rst

engine when he was just 13! It was 2.5ccm

modeller engine that ran on ether. Later he

developed 10ccm engines,

running on a mixture of

methyl alcohol and castor

Stojím p'ed nenápadn# vyhlí$ejícím rodinn!m domkem v malé vísce poblí$ Prahy a váhám, jestli jsem na správné adrese. Je v(bec mo$né, aby v t#chto podmínkách byly vyráb#ny "pi&kové modelá'ské spalovací motory vysok!ch kubatur? A p'ece je to tak! Pan Ivan Kasl mi otvírá branku a vede mne do své dílny v p'ízemí, kde na r!sovacím prk-n# vznikají návrhy a v!po&ty spalovacích motor(, kter!mi vybavuje své, také vlastnoru&n# d#lané, ob'í makety letadel.„Já ty letad!lka (nejmen"í má rozp#tí kolem 4 metr(), vlastn# d#lám jen proto, abych jimi obalil své motory,“ 'íká Kasl a postupn# odhaluje fascinující p'íb#h celo$ivotní lás-ky k motor(m. /emeslo zd#dil po otci, kter! domácí dílnu Kasl( zalo$il, kdy$ sestavil ob-ráb#cí stroj na v!robu ozuben!ch kol, pomocí n#ho$ pak sestrojil první domácí soustruh. Na tomto soustruhu od té doby vznikl nejeden podomácku vyroben! motor. Ivan Kasl se v otcov# díln# u&il 'emeslu odmali&ka. „Do u&ení jsem nastupoval u$ vlastn# vyu&enej,“ vzpomíná s úsm#vem na léta, kdy se u&il univerzálním soustru$níkem v Jaw#. A m($eme mu to v#'it, v$dy* sv(j v(bec první podomácku vyroben! motor sestrojil v pouh!ch 13 le-tech! Byl to modelá'sk! motorek 2,5 ccm pohán#n! etherem. Pozd#ji vznikaly motory ku-batury 10 ccm, které u$ pohán#la sm#s metylalkoholu s ricinov!m olejem. Kasl t#mito motorky osazoval upoutané modely letadel. Dal"í kuriozitou byl jeho první pulza&ní motor,

kter!, jak 'íká, ve „druhé m#"*ance“ p'edvád#l udiven!m spolu$ák(m a u&itelskému sbo-ru na dvo'e "koly místo vyu&ování fyziky.+kolní a u&)ovská léta rychle utekla a byl &as rozhodnout se, kam zamí'it dál. Ivan Kasl se cht#l stát letcem. P'ihlásil se do leteckého kurzu, ale nebyl p'ijat, p'esto$e jeho zru&-nost a znalosti o motorech z n#j jist# d#laly jedine&ného kandidáta. Pro komunisty ne-m#l ten správn! kádrov! profi l… A není se co divit, v$dy* jeho dva str!cové byli v té dob# v komunistick!ch kriminálech jako nep'átelé re$imu. Ivan v"ak nezatrpkl a dal se se stej-nou vervou na motorismus, kde se mohl v#novat sv!m motor(m. Procházím malou dílnou a po'ád mi nejde do hlavy, jak m($e z kusu $eleza vzniknout spolehliv! motor… „Nejprve si nahrubo vymyslím, jak velk! motor budu d#lat.

TO CONSTRUCT SOMETHING HOME-MADE TODAY IS ALMOST UNTHINKABLE. Everything can be bought and mostly it works so almost no-one thinks of creating something on their own.

oil. Kasl used these engines for airplane

models. Another curiosity was the first

pulsating engine that he showed at school

to amazed fellow students and teachers in

physics classes.

Having fi nished his apprenticeship, Kasl

had to consider what to do next. He wanted

to become a pilot, so he applied for pilot

training. Despite his knowledge of engines

and his manual dexterity, he was not

admitted, because the Communists viewed

him as lacking the right cadre profi le. No

wonder; his two uncles were then serving

sentences in Communist prisons as

enemies of the regime. Ivan did not grow

bitter however and directed his enthusiasm

to the automotive industry, which allowed

him to pursue his passion for engines.

I am walking through the small workshop,

still wondering how a reliable engine can

be made of a simple piece of steel... “First

I chose the kind of engine I wanted to

make and I drew the design on the drawing

board,” explains Mr Kasl. “Then I bought

piston rings – the only thing I can’t make

here on my own,” he says as if he needed

to apologise. “And then it’s simple: cylinder,

piston-rod, gearbox...,” he enumerates the

parts of the new engine. In the corner of

the workshop, we find a small furnace.

“I cast the engine housing here,” he says

and I stand in silent wonder at what Kasl

can produce in his home. The same tasks

are normally carried out by dozens of

workers in commercial companies.

The latest engine built by Ivan is his largest

yet – a 300ccm four-stroke fi ve-cylinder

engine with a star layout. Each of the fi ve

cylinders has a stroke volume of 60ccm.

Ivan built the engine in two prototypes

and one of them powers a model of the

U.S. Texan T6, a training plane of the post-

-WWII period. Naturally, the model is his

Rozvrhnu a na&rtnu si to na r!sovacím prkn#. Potom si k motoru obstarám pístní krou$ky, to je to jediné, co nedoká$u podomácku vyrobit a musím to koupit,“ 'íká jakoby omluvn#. „No a pak u$ to jde ráz na ráz. Válec, ojnice, p'evodovka…,“ vypráví u$ veseleji o vzniku nového motoru, jako by to byl recept na t'enou bábovku. V rohu dílny nará$íme na men-"í tavicí pícku. „Tady si odlévám motorové sk'ín#.“ Nevycházím z údivu nad tím, jak práci, kterou v komer&ních fi rmách d#lají desítky pracovník( r(zn!ch profesí a mnohé díly jsou nakupovány od subdodavatel(, doká$e Ivan Kasl ud#lat sám.Nejnov#j"í motor, kter! Ivan postavil, je prozatím i jeho nejv#t"í. Je to do hv#zdice uspo-'ádan! 300ccm &ty'taktní p#tiválec. Ka$d! válec má zdvihov! objem 60 ccm. Ivan jej po-stavil ve dvou prototypech a pohání jím sv(j model americké cvi&né stíha&ky povále&ného období Texan T6. -e i Texan je vlastnoru&ní v!roby, se rozumí samo sebou. Za svou ka-riéru Ivan sestrojil n#kolik desítek motor( r(zn!ch kubatur. Vznik jednoho motoru od „&is-tého r!sovacího prkna“ do prvního letu trvá zhruba p(l roku, a pokud k tomu p'ipo&ítáme i samotnou stavbu ob'ího modelu letadla, trvá práce na jednom stroji zhruba rok. Ptám se, kde v"ude tyhle skvosty létají, a odpov#, je p'ekvapivá: „-ádn! motor jsem nikdy ne-prodal. Se v"ím jsem létal jen sám,“ 'íká Kasl. Divím se, proto$e podobné modelá'ské motory byste ve sv#t# jen t#$ko hledali, a pokud je n#kdo poskytuje, jejich cena se pohy-buje kolem p#ti tisíc eur. Ivan by mohl své motory skv#le zpen#$it, jeho mar$e by byly jis-t# ve stovkách procent, proto$e náklady na materiál odhaduje na deset tisíc korun na je-den motor.Mo$ná je ale dob'e, $e Ivan Kasl staví motory hlavn# pro sebe a pro pot#"ení t#ch, kte'í mají mo$nost na modelá'sk!ch leti"tích jeho v!tvory obdivovat. Mo$ná by se z jeho stroj( &asem vytratila ta jedine&nost um#leckého díla, kterou dnes mají.

own creation too. During his career, Ivan

has built dozens of engines of various

volumes.

To build an engine, from blueprints to

maiden fl ight takes about six months and

if you add the work on the model of the

aircraft itself, then it takes almost a year.

I ask where I could see these models

and his reply surprises me: “I have never

sold any engine. I have fl own all of them

myself,” he says. Wondrous indeed,

because these engines are indeed unique

and such constructions on the open market

fetch around 5,000 EUR. Ivan could make

a fortune, with a huge profi t margin as the

material costs, he says, amount to only

about 10,000 CZK.

Perhaps it is better that Ivan Kasl builds his

engines for himself and for the pleasure of

those who watch his creations at modellers’

airports. If he sold them, they might

lose something of their unique, artisan

character.

winter. Their original inhabitants used

to call them the “Happy Islands”, and we

migrating swallows understand this term of

endearment completely.

Take a look at Gran Canaria, for example:

it is a world in miniature, the southern part

of which is reminiscent of Africa. There, we

climb the ten-metre-high sand dunes in what

is termed “Little Sahara”. After that, we go

back to lounge on the beaches which spread

for miles and, when the sun goes down in

the afternoon, turn to gold.

I must admit that, for me, the interior of the

Canary Islands fascinates me most. As our

car swerves and lurches through the hairpin

bends in the mountain roads, it’s a good

idea not to look down to the cliffs below.

Approaching the peak of Pico de Bandami,

an amazing vista of the mountains, furrowed

landscape and tiny toy-town villages opens

up before us. Two hundred metres below

us lies a kilometre-wide crater. Ages ago,

massive forces ripped this place apart but

today, serenity and peace rule supreme here.

In the picturesque little town of Vega de San

Mateo, we treat ourselves to a glass of wine

(some of us even to a glass of honey rum)

and, from then on, the road winds through

a landscape reminiscent of the Alps. In

other places, the land erupts in strange gills

which are like American canyons and are

reminiscent of a petrifi ed storm. Above the

village of Artenara, a statue of Jesus Christ

towers above the scenery, just like the one

in Rio de Janeiro. On our way back down,

splendid views await us: mountains, fl owers,

sunshine and segments of curiously lit sky

emerge from the wisps of haze. It is all very

cinematic and you might be forgiven for

thinking it a special effects tour-de-force.

The green valleys are dotted with little

coloured houses like somewhere in Brazil.

Most of them are white or yellow, as, until

the mid-80s, a patriotic law demanded

that the colours had to match the national

fl ag. Everywhere you can see the Canaries

perched on the roofs; they spend most of

their lives here. Among the chairs, parasols,

wine and sangria they chatter and make

love. Above it, the smell of oranges and

jasmine lingers and at the end of January,

the almond trees here burst into blossom.

The capital city of Las Palmas features Casa

de Colón – the house where Christopher

Columbus lived before he set off to discover

America. You almost wonder how he could

leave – no one could convinc me that to

leave this place would be a good move.

LET’S GO TO THE BEACH

There is a lot more to the Canary Islands

than just Gran Vanadia. Fuerteventura, for

instance, is an island which prides itself

especially in its beaches. There is no other

place in the Canary Islands where the

beaches are so long, so golden and white

and in such abundance. A holiday here is in

the spirit of the Spanish “vamos a la playa”

or “let’s go down to the beach”. The most

beautiful of these beaches, the Playa de

Sotavento, is over twenty kilometres long.

Playa de Cofete is just a little bit shorter,

but has an interesting item of local lore:

word has it that, during the second world

war, German engineer Gustav Winter built

a submarine port for Nazi submarines under

his villa there.

This is also an island of apparent roughness

and harsh beauty, covered with semi-deserts

and volcanoes. It is also a sheltering nook

and a refuge from the bustling world: here,

peace and tranquillity still rule. Inland, you

can clamber over strange structures of

solidifi ed magma; on the beaches, you can

watch the devotees of wind-surfi ng chased

around by the wind, and divers attracted

by the crystal clear ocean depths. On the

narrow and abandoned roads, you meet

bikers; on the paths along the coast, you

encounter horse riders. The impressionists

would also have had a field day on this

island as the dunes, the sky, the sea and the

cliffs play a never-ending game of changing

colours and contrasts.

POT1+ENÍ PRO JAZYKVyrazili jsme do restaurace Ca’mi suegra (U mé tch!n#) ve m#st# Vecinadario na Gran

SUN, ATLANTIC, RELAX

Altitude and dizzying vertigo! Tenerife is

a black island with green valleys and the

occasional moonscape, full of craters and

abysses. Here, Pico de Teide reaches to the

sky – the tallest peak of not only these islands,

but in all of Spain. It is 3,717 metres high. This

island has black sand beaches and if you come

across some yellow sand then it has been

brought on ships from Africa. But who can

complain? Tenerife is also “La Laguna”. For

hours, I walked through the little streets of

this Old-Spanish style colonial town. Between

the palaces, churches and cloisters, among

the patrician houses, lie hidden green patios

and gently decorated balconies. I was almost

expecting a noble hidalgo to dart from the

nearest corner, in his romantic quest for some

tourist señorita.

It is Lanzarote that is the real romance of the

Canary Islands as I realised while I was shopping

at the market of the town of Teguise, listening

to Spanish rhythms of musicians playing right

outside the church. Yet the most fascinating

experience still awaited us in the Timanfaya

National Park. This area is full of volcanoes

and nature here has been a master sculptor; to

drive through this extraordinary rough beauty

to a soundtrack of classical music is simply

a splendid experience. On the following day,

we headed to the beach again. On this occasion

the agenda only included the sun, the Atlantic

and wine – simply recharging the batteries and

getting a fi x of sunshine. Those who wish to

could go and play golf against a volcanic and

ocean backdrop or go horse riding. Or, as

with my plans for today, simply relax and get

warmed up.

Slovo Alexandra Vondry k p'edsednictví %R v Rad# EU

Alexandr Vondra’s View of the Czech Republic’s Presidency of the EU Council

,ESKÁ REPUBLIKA SE 1. LEDNA UJALA P*EDSEDNICTVÍ RADY EU a na p(l roku p'evzala v!znamn! díl odpov#dnosti za chod organizace, která dnes zahrnuje 27 stát( a tém#' p(l miliardy Evropan(. Do"lo k tomu symbolicky v dob#, kdy na"e zem# slaví p#t let od svého vstupu do Unie a dvacet let od pádu komunistické totality.

ON JANUARY 1ST, THE CZECH REPUBLIC took over the Presidency of the EU Council, thus assuming considerable responsibility for the operation of an organization which today includes 27 states and almost half a billion Europeans. Symbolically, this event has taken place at the point when our country celebrates five years within the Union – and twenty years since the downfall of the communist totalitarian regime.

In 1989, the Czech Republic was

isolated from the democratic world by the

impermeable Iron Curtain; today, we are

a part of the Schengen Zone where citizens

of the EU member states can travel without

restraint. Twenty years ago, we belonged

to the economically backward Eastern

block; now we preside over a club which

has created the world’s greatest single

market and is a leading power in the global

economy.

The Presidency of the European Union is

a great opportunity for the Czech Republic

to confirm its status as a civilised, developed

country, respected amongst other EU

member states. This Presidency is both

V roce 1989 %eskou republiku od demokratického sv#ta d#lila neprostupná $elez-ná opona, dnes jsme sou&ástí schengenského prostoru, v n#m$ lidé v rámci &lensk!ch stát( EU voln# cestují. P'ed dvaceti lety jsme pat'ili k ekonomicky zaostalému V!chodu, nyní p'edsedáme klubu, kter! vytvo'il nejv#t"í jednotn! trh na sv#t# a je rozhodující silou globální ekonomiky.P'edsednictví Evropské unie je pro %eskou republiku p'íle$itostí potvrdit roli vysp#-lé zem#, která má pevné místo mezi ostatními státy Evropské unie. Jde o zatím nejv#t-"í úkol, kter! p'ed nás &lenství v Evropské unii postavilo. Zp(sob, jak!m se tohoto úko-lu zhostíme, m($e v!znamn# ovlivnit na"i presti$. %eská republika se na p(l roku stala hlasem i tvá'í sedmadvacítky. Neznamená to ale, $e bychom m#li v &ele EU prosazovat sami sebe. Na"im partner(m v Evropské unii chceme dokázat, $e umíme p'evzít odpo-v#dnost i za druhé. Chceme jednat v evropském duchu a fungovat jako moderátor de-baty dvaceti sedmi zemí.P'edsednictví je nejen velkou politickou v!zvou, ale i mimo'ádn!m organiza&ním úko-lem. Musíme zajistit, svolávat a 'ídit v"echna zasedání Rady EU na v"ech úrovních. Asi 340 zasedání, v&etn# 13 ministersk!ch rad, se bude konat v %esku – nejen v Praze, ale i v regionech. P'ipravit jsme museli zázemí t#chto akcí – od ubytování ú&astník( a do-pravy p'es tlumo&ení, doprovodné kulturní programy a$ po v!zdobu konferen&ních sál( a dárkové p'edm#ty.Nejd(le$it#j"í ale je dát p'edsednictví správn! obsah. %eské p'edsednictví p'ichá-zí s mottem „Evropa bez bariér“ a t'emi hlavními okruhy priorit – ekonomika, energetika a Evropa a sv#t. Na"ím cílem je p'isp#t k tomu, aby Unie byla transparentní organiza-cí, která pln# vyu$ívá svého hospodá'ského, lidského a kulturního potenciálu a opírá se o silnou ekonomiku. Jenom tak m($e EU obstát v globální politické i hospodá'ské kon-kurenci. V duchu motta „Evropa bez bariér“ se &eské p'edsednictví zam#'uje na roz-víjení v"ech svobod vnit'ního trhu. Zapomínat nesmíme ani na ty Evropany, kte'í zatím z(stali za branami Evropské unie. %eská republika na desítky let pocítila, jaké d(sled-ky má vylou&ení z okruhu ekonomicky vysp#l!ch demokratick!ch zemí. Chceme proto, aby EU dále stabilizovala evropsk! kontinent a pokra&ovala v projektu svého roz"í'ení.Pr(b#h na"eho p'edsednictví a jeho v!sledky samoz'ejm# ovlivní 'ada faktor(. N#které z nich, jako nap'íklad &ervnové volby do Evropského parlamentu a kon&ící mandát Ev-ropské komise, jsou p'edem dané a konstruktivní atmosfé'e na evropské scén# p'íli" nepomohou. P'edsednictví jsme se navíc ujali v dob#, kdy jsou vody globální ekonomi-ky i politiky pom#rn# neklidné. Pevn# ale v#'ím, $e %e"i v této zkou"ce obstojí a p'ed-vedou, $e si s náro&n!mi úkoly p'edsednické zem# umí poradit. K úsp#chu budeme krom# mimo'ádného nasazení a schopnosti pru$n# reagovat pot'ebovat i ur&itou dávku "t#stí. +t#stí ale zpravidla p'eje p'ipraven!m, a proto jsme se na p'edsednictví dva roky systematicky chystali.P'edsednictví není jen zále$itostí vlády. Jde o dobrou pov#st na"í zem#, a tím pádem tak trochu ka$dého z nás. Dal"í p'edsednictví nás &eká – pokud v(bec – za více ne$ t'ináct let. Kdy$ nyní v &ele EU odvedeme dobrou práci, potvrdíme svou d(v#ryhod-nost jako spolehliv! partner pro ostatní zem# EU. Z posílené d(v#ryhodnosti na"í zem# pak budeme t#$it v"ichni. Vláda proto chápe p'edsednictví jako vysoce presti$ní úkol a sna$í se pro jeho úsp#ch ud#lat maximum. P'eji nám v"em, aby se nám to spole&-n# poda'ilo.

an honour and a challenge and the way we

approach this task will reflect upon us for

years to come. For half a year, the Czech

Republic assumes to role of spokesperson

for the twenty-seven. It is important that

this opportunity is recognised for what it is,

however; a chance to prove to our partners

that we can also assume responsibility for

others. We want to act in the spirit of the

European Union and to function as moderator

and facilitator for the debate between the

twenty-seven member states.

Not only is the Presidency a major

political challenge; it is also an exceptional

organizational task. The Czech nation have

to provide for, summon and chair all the

meetings of the EU Council at all levels.

About 340 meetings, including 13 Ministerial

Meetings, will be held in the Czech Republic

– not only in Prague, but also in the regions.

A detailed itinerary of these events has had to

be prepared – from arranging accommodation

and transportation, to interpreting,

accompanying hospitality entertainment

and to decorating the conference halls and

providing gifts for participants.

Despite these minutiae, the foremost task is

to endow the Czech presidency of the union

with appropriate gravitas and substance.

The motto being adopted by the Czech

administration is a “Barrier Free Europe”

and this involves three key topics: economy,

energy and Europe and the world. It is our

aim to contribute to the Union by becoming

a transparent organization which utilizes

its economic, human and cultural potential

to the fullest, building upon a powerful

economic frame. This is the only way that

the EU can stand its ground in global political

and economic competition. In a spirit of the

“Barrier Free Europe”, the

Czech Presidency focuses on

developing all the freedoms

afforded by the internal market. Also, we

must not forget those Europeans who still

remain beyond the gates of the European

Union. For decades, the Czech Republic

experienced the consequences of being

left out of the company of economically

developed democratic countries. Therefore

we want the EU to do everything in her power

to further stabilize the European continent

and continue the enlargement project.

The character and success of our Presidency

will be affected by a number of factors.

Some of them – such as June’s European

Parliament elections and the ending of the

mandate of the European Commission – are

pre-determined and will not help to develop

a constructive atmosphere. Furthermore, we

have assumed the presidency at a time when

the waters of the global economy and politics

are rather vexed. I do, however, firmly believe

that the Czechs will rise to this challenge and

prove that they can handle the demanding

tasks set before them as presidential member

state. To succeed, we will need hard work,

flexibility and a fair deal of luck. Fortune

favours the bold as we know and that is why

we have systematically been preparing for

the Presidency for the past two years.

The Presidency is much more than merely

the concern of our government officials;

the good reputation of our country is at

stake and by extension, that of every one of

us. The next Presidency is at least thirteen

years away, and if we do a good job at the

head of the EU now, then we will announce

ourselves as a reliable partner to other EU

member states. All of us will then benefit

from this boost to our credibility. Thus,

the Government considers the Czech

Presidency of the EU a highly prestigious

task and is determined to make it a success.

I believe I speak for us all in expressing the

hope that we all work together towards this

common goal.

Jen$e jen z tradice se $ít nedá a vedení firmy v &ele s Milivojem -ákem si je toho v#do-mo: „P'ejeme si, aby na"e spole&nost byla vnímána nejen jako tradi&ní, ale také jako globální, evropská a moderní. V sou&asné dob# jsme p'evá$n# v!robní firmou s vlast-ním maloobchodem. Pracujeme ale na tom, abychom byli spí" obchodní firmou s &ás-te&nou vlastní v!robou, která bude vyhlá"ená vynikající kvalitou.“Firma proto hodlá navázat spolupráci s p'edními návrhá'i – a to nejenom v %eské repub-lice. Investovat bude do marketingu i do zkvalitn#ní a modernizace maloobchodní sít#.

That OP Prost#jov Profashion has its

place in the sun in the 21st century, is all too

clear from its numerous awards – it is among

the TOP 100 Czech brands. The chairman

of the board of directors, ing. Milivoj "ák,

values every success. If he was asked to

select only one though, it would be the

award for Businessman of the Year (2007).

“We managed to claim this prize mainly

thanks to the votes of the public and that’s

very important to us,” he explains, adding,

“another encouraging but daunting fact is

that the President of the Czech Republic,

Václav Klaus, prefers our brand as well.”

OLYMPICS AND FOOTBALL

Not only the head of state, but also the

Olympic team of the Czech Republic opt

for clothing from OP Prost#jov Profashion.

Czech Olympians sported fashion by

Prost#jov both in Torino and last year in

Peking. We are justifiably proud of this;

that we outfitted our Olympic athletes is

a matter of pride for us,“ says Milivoj "ák,

smiling. Furthermore, the company has

been very successful in competitive tenders,

when it bid to design a complete set of

clothing for athletes, including accessories:

“Bespoke clothing for each athlete and

corresponding special tailoring services are

a matter-of-course. We are most delighted

by the fact that our Olympic delegation

was seen as being one of the best dressed,

which is a sign for us that the collection was

successful.”

It is less well known that Prost#jov was also

involved in last year’s European Football

Championships, producing clothing for

four national teams – Germany, Sweden,

the Netherlands and Russia. “It was a bit

different than in the case of the Olympic

team: we did not design the clothes, but

manufactured them. The companies

responsible for these national teams

then ordered the clothing tailored by us.

They knew us and knew we offer quality

workmanship. But the fact that they turned

to us is a confirmation for us

that the products we offer

are first-class,” adds "ák.

OP PROST1JOV BY M1L B0T SPÍ+ OBCHODNÍ FIRMOU, KTERÁ BUDE VYHLÁ+ENÁ VYNIKAJÍCÍ KVALITOU


„Zna&ka OP Prost#jov je ve'ejností vnímána velmi dob'e, je známá. My ji te, musíme transformovat do cenov# p'ijateln#j"í polohy – tak, aby byla pro "irokou ve'ejnost. Na"ím cílem je nabízet "pi&kové zbo$í za p'ijatelné ceny, p'i zachování kvality.“Ani OP Prost#jov Profashion se nevyhnul tlaku posilující &eské m#ny a turbulentní situace na finan&ních trzích.„Museli jsme redukovat v!robní kapacity, a tím pádem i sní$it po&et zam#stnanc(. Bylo to nutné. Na"e v!roba byla navíc ze sedmdesáti procent sm#rována na export, ale kv(li silné korun# pro nás p'estaly b!t exportní zakázky efektivní. A vyráb#t neefektivn# nelze. Chce-me-li p'e$ít, musíme b!t konkurenceschopní a restrukturalizace je to, co nám v tom po-m($e.“


TRADITION IS NOT ENOUGH

Few clothing producers can pride themselves

on such a long tradition as OP Prost#jov. But

a company cannot live on the back of tradition

alone and the firm’s management, headed by

Milivoj "ák, are aware of this. “It is our wish

that our company is perceived not only as

traditional, but also as global, European

and modern. At present, we are principally

a manufacturing company with its own retail

arm. Yet, we are also working on transforming

ourselves into more of a company which also

produces its own design lines and which is

renowned for its excellent quality.”

The firm therefore plans to co-operate with

leading designers – and not only in the

Czech Republic. It also wants to invest in

improving the quality of and modernizing the

retail network. “The OP Prost#jov brand is

perceived very favorably by the public, and

is well known. We now have to transform

it so that it is more favorably priced and

available to a wide public. Our goal is to

offer top products at reasonable prices while

maintaining the quality.”

Even OP Prost#jov Profashion could not avoid

the pressures of the strengthening Czech

currency and the turbulent situation on the

financial markets: “We have had to reduce

our production capacity and also lower the

number of employees – it was necessary. Our

production had also been seventy percent

export oriented, but due to the strong crown,

export commissions stopped being efficient

for us. One cannot afford to be an ineffective

producer. In order to survive, we have to be

competitive and restructuring could help us

with this.”

READY-MADE AND TAILOR-MADE

KONFEKCE I $ITÍ NA MÍRUNa otázku, jak by p'esv#d&il potenciální zákazníky, aby se v záplav# zna&ek rozhodli prá-v# pro tu prost#jovskou, zareaguje: „Slovy se v oblasti módy p'esv#d&uje t#$ko. Ideál-ní je, kdy$ si zákazník v prodejn# od#v prohlédne. Zjistí, jak! má design, $e je z p'íjemné-ho a kvalitního materiálu, a vyzkou"í si, jak mu padne… Jsem p'esv#d&en o tom, $e na"e nabídka je natolik "iroká, $e jsme schopni uspokojit ka$dého zákazníka. Nabízíme ale samoz'ejm# i n#co navíc. Zákazníci u nás mají mo$nost nechat si u"ít od#v na míru. Zájemce o zakázkovou módu individuáln# zm#'íme, a pak má mo$nost vy-brat si materiál od presti$ních evropsk!ch textilek, s nimi$ spolupracujeme. Z "iroké "ká-ly mo$ností si m($e zvolit také st'ih, detaily, po&et knoflík( a podobn#. V!hodou celého systému, kter! naz!váme MTM (Made To Measure) je, $e jakmile ji$ jednou známe kódy zákazníka, nemusíme ho znovu m#'it a zakázku lze realizovat i na základ# písemného po-$adavku zaslaného e-mailem, p'ípadn# na základ# telefonátu. Tuto slu$bu si velmi oblíbili zákazníci p'edev"ím z 'ad mana$er(. +et'í jim &as – a navíc obleky, které si takto objednají, jim dokonale padnou. Tento systém funguje v celé Evro-p#.

offer, he says: “In the fashion world, words

alone cannot convince anyone. Ideally,

the customer sees the clothing in a store,

examines its design, checks that it is made

of top-quality material, and tries it on to see

how it fits. I am certain that our range is wide

enough to satisfy every customer but we give

a little something extra too. Customers can

also have their clothes tailor-made. Each client

is individually measured and can then pick

from materials from prestigious European

textile manufacturers with whom we

co-operate. Cut, details, number of buttons,

and so on can be chosen from a wide selection

of possibilities. The advantage of this system,

which we call MTM (Made-to-Measure), is

that once we know the sizes of the customer,

we do not have to measure him again and

the order can be completed on the basis of

a written request by e-mail or telephone.

This service is particularly appreciated by

managerial clients as it saves them time and

the suits they order always fit them perfectly.

This system is also available across Europe

and we have business representatives in

France, Germany, Switzerland and other

countries. Orders can be placed on-line and

within a few hours, production can start.

We want to expand the MTM system more

aggressively in the domestic market as well.”

AN OASIS OF PEACE

On his frequent trips abroad, Milivoj "ák

prefers Czech Airlines: “After a marathon

of negotiations and meetings, when

I board a plane where nice and welcoming

stewardesses take care of me, I can relax. For

me it is a bit like a small oasis of peace and

quiet wherever I am flying from. I particularly

appreciate the high standard of service and

the fact that I can sample good Moravian

wines on board. While doing that, I usually

take time to peruse the in-flight magazine,

Review, which I consider very interesting.

Personally, I also like the clothing worn by

the airline personnel – they are smartly and

stylishly dressed,” he says, gently alluding to

the fact that the uniforms of Czech Airlines’

employees come from the workshops of OP

Prost#jov Profashion.

Moc nescházelo, a mohl jsem doopravdy n$kolikrát zalo#it smí)ené man#elství. Tak t'eba ta Ruska z Petrohradu, to se 'íkalo je"t# z Leningradu, by* zlaté

v#$e Admirality svítily dál ne$ kremelská hv#zda, tak jsem jí asi u&aroval, $e m# málem rozvedla. Nebyla to $ádná kyprá Jelena Michajlovna, ale "tíhlounká V#ra Solovjeva, s ní$ jsem tancoval na n#jakém candrbále práv# poblí$ Petropavlovského paláce.Sed#li jsme tam spolu s n#kolika &esk!mi a slovensk!mi básníky a malí'i a nikomu nebylo po t#ch kilometrech na"lapan!ch po severské dla$b# moc do tance. Spí" to vypadalo na vodku nebo na víno.

Ta $ena m# okouzlila na první pohled, jakési vzru"ení mnou projelo je"t# d'ív, ne$ jsme spolu za&ali tancovat. Samoz'ejm# $e kdy$ jsme se pak nocí procházeli a$ k N#v#, myslel jsem spí" na to, jaká bude milenka, ne$ na d#jinné zvraty, ale musím vám 'íct, $e to kolem m# t'ískalo.

Na druh! den foukal siln! mraziv! vítr, kdy$ jsem se vydal, nemaje kop#jek nazbyt, do ulice Metallist(. T#"il jsem se, $e si zopakuji n#které no&ní pasá$e v p'íjemn#j"ím prost'edí.

Zazvonil jsem u jednopatrového nar($ov#lého domu a p'i"la mi otev'ít velice elegantní dáma, evidentn# V#'ina matka. Celá v &erném mi pokynula s úklonou, jako by 'íkala Va"e Prevoschodit#lstvo, ra&te dál. Pro"li jsme krátkou chodbou rovnou do velkého pokoje, v jeho$ rohu stálo piano a patrn# mlad"í V#'ina sestra v "atech s námo'nick!m límcem na n#m hrála %ajkovského.

P'ipadal jsem si, jako kdy$ p'icházím $ádat o ruku jednu z dcer, a není-li otce v rodin#, p'ivede mi ji str!c. Str!c se v"ak nekonal, st#ny pokoje se naklonily, naráz jsem vid#l a$ do Finského zálivu, vítr zvedal vlny a jívy a b'ízy se sh!baly k zemi, na'íkala meluzína zlá.

Na&e$ vstoupila V#ra. Ty t'i sch(dky z koupelny byly jako dlouhé schodi"t# s rud!m kobercem, po n#m$ sestupovala pozdravována davy mu$ik( a zlatovlas!ch bábu"ek.

Ob'ad, kter! následoval, byl mnohem víc ne$ zásnubní hostina. V"e bylo ne&ekané a krásné a sm#'ovalo k tomu, $e bych je"t# tého$ ve&era m#l zap'íst debatu stran rodinného rozpo&tu, studií mlad"í sestry a v(bec stát se hlavou rodiny. Naopak jsem ve vzduchu cítil zhmotn#lé p'edstavy Rusek o tom, $e jedna z nich, anebo nejrad#ji ka$dá z nich, se mnou zplodí n#kolik syn( a dcer.

Vypil jsem n#kolik d$ber( &aje ze samovaru a pár stakan&ik( vodky, kdy$ jsem pocítil schopnost levitace. Lehce jsem se odrá$el od podlahy p'i tanci s V#'inou matkou, vytrhával se z jejího objetí a nará$el hlavou do vysokého stropu. Za dlouh!mi záv#sy se míhala sv#tla &ern!ch limuzín, auta se stav#la na zadní kola a reflektory bi&ovaly oblohu, k ní$ jsem vzlétal s V#rou jako svatební pár od Chagalla.

Zato&ili jsme se nad Vitebskem a pak je"t# nad Var"avou a u$ jsme klesali, abychom neminuli Vyso&inu. Mával jsem k'ídly

A Few times, I’ve been a breath away from

a mixed marriage. For example, that Russian from Saint

Petersburg (which at that time was still called Leningrad

– even though the golden towers of the Admiralty shone much

further than the star of Kremlin); I must have charmed her to the

extent that she nearly got me divorced. She was not some the kind

of a plump Elena Mihailovna – but rather a slender Vera Solovieva,

that I danced with in some dance hall not far from the Peter and

Paul Palace.

We sat there, along with a couple of Czech and Slovak poets

and painters, and none of us, after all the miles we walked on these

northern pavements, felt like dancing – vodka or wine seemed a

lot more likely.

That woman magnetized me at first sight; some kind of

exaltation ran through me even before we started dancing together.

Naturally, when we later walked together all the way to the river

Neva, I was thinking more about what kind of lover she would make

than about the turns of history. But then, I must admit, there was

a lot going on around me.

On the following day, a strong freezing wind was blowing and

without any copecks to spare, I set off for Metallist Street. I was

looking forward to repeating some of the action from last night, but

this time in a more pleasant environment.

I rang the doorbell of the two-storeyed pinkish house. A very

elegant lady came to the door, obviously Vera’s mother. She was

dressed all in black and she wagged her head at me, as if to say:

“Your Majesty, please do come in.” We walked through a short lobby

straight into a large living-room. In the corner, a piano stood on

which a girl, probably Vera’s younger sister, wearing a dress with a

sailor’s collar, was playing Tchaikovsky.

I felt as if I was expected to propose to one of the daughters –

and that, should the father be missing from the family, she would

be escorted in by her uncle. Yet no uncle turned up and in my mind

the walls in the room tilted and, suddenly, I could see all the way

to the Gulf of Finland. The wind was raising waves and the willows

and birch trees were leaning all the way to the ground. A sinister

wind lamented.

Then, Vera entered. The three steps from the bathroom turned

into a long stairway with a red carpet, on which she descended

though cheering crowds of muzhiks and golden-haired babushkas.

The ceremony that followed was a lot more than simply an

engagement banquet. Everything was unexpected and beautiful ,

and it seemed to weave drunkenly between subjects as diverse as

the family budget, a psychological profile of the younger sister, me

seemingly becoming the family head in general. I could feel visions

materializing of the Russians around me, of each of them conceiving

a couple of sons and daughters with me, of fecund fatherhood, of

a dynasty even!

I had drunk a few tubs of tea from the samovar and a few shots

of vodka when I realized I could levitate. I was lightly bouncing

off the floor when dancing with Vera’s mother, bouncing away

from her embrace and banging my head on the high ceiling.

Behind the long curtains, the lights of black limousines were

flickering; the cars were rearing upon their back wheels and

their headlights whipped the sky where Vera and I were flying

like newlyweds painted by Chagall.

We took a turning above Vitebsk, then above Warsaw and

then we started to descend in order not to miss the uplands.

I was waving my wings as a lily-white airplane above the forest

where the little cottage with my mum and Franti!ek was hiding.

Franti!ek would probably exclaim: “Oh, there, that’s just what

I needed – a Russian in the house!” Well, he would never have

said this: he would just invite her in and listen for hours to tales

about the people that grandpa Anthony had shot at in Halych.

Then, they would make our beds in the back room and, for hours

on end, talk about what I had told them. Perhaps Frantisek

would ask my mum, just by the way: “Mary, is Jaroslav no longer

married?”

Then Vera started writing to me like mad; she was putting

our short relationship into historical perspective and supported

it all with quotes from novels and poems so that, at first

sight, the letters took on the appearance of serious scientific

correspondence.

This continued until one day, after half a year of intense

correspondence sex, one of her letters accidentally ended up in

the hands of my wife. I never asked, but I think it was her who

replied to it. Since then, I have never seen another letter from

the city of white nights.

There you go: I never married a foreigner – and I probably

never will, but one just never knows.

jako b#lostn! letoun nad lesem, v n#m$ ukryta je chaloupka s mou maminkou a Franti"kem. Franti"ek by zvolal, no to by nám je"t# scházelo, Ruska do baráku, ale on by to nikdy ne'ekl, jenom by ji pozval dál a do noci by naslouchal vypráv#ní o lidech, proti kter!m d#da Antonín st'ílel v Hali&i. Pak by nám odestlali v zadní sv#tnici a je"t# dlouho do noci by si povídali o tom, co jsem jim 'ekl. Mo$ná $e by se Franti"ek jen tak mimochodem zeptal maminky: „Má)o, on u$ ten Jára není $enatej?“

A V#ra za&ala psát jako zb#silá, uvád#la ná" krati&k! vztah do d#jinn!ch souvislostí a podporovala citáty z román( a básní, tak$e dopis na první pohled d#lal dojem seriózní v#decké korespondence.

A$ jednou, u$ po p(l roce intenzivního koresponden&ního sexu, se jeden z dopis( náhodou p'ipletl do rukou mé $enu"ce. Nikdy jsem se na to neptal, ale myslím, $e na n#j tenkrát odepsala ona. Víckrát jsem u$ z m#sta bíl!ch nocí psaní nespat'il.

Czech Airlines succeeded in environmental audit in terms pursuant

to international standard ISO 14001. The audit of a prestigious

international organization Det Norske Veritas was aimed at flight

and ground operations, technical maintenance of the aircraft,

training programmes and sales and supportive activities. The results

prove that, within its key processes and activities, Czech Airlines

adopted a number of system measures and improvements in terms

of environment, thus achieving the level of the highest international

standards. These demanding standards, as defined by ISO 14001,

are not by far achieved by all airline companies. Within the SkyTeam,

the certificate is also held by, for example, Air France-KLM.

WARR – velká akce zam#stnanc( leteck!ch spole&ností

WARR – A Grand Event for Airline Employees

Text: Lenka Desatová | Foto: Pavel Du"ek, Alena Fikesová, ISIFA

FOR 27 YEARS NOW, pilots, flight-attendants and staff of the ground services of airline companies have been coming together for an annual meeting where they can compete in sports, make new friends and enjoy a few days of fun.

– 87 –

JI( SEDMADVACET LET se jednou za rok sejdou piloti, letu"ky i zam#stnanci pozemního provozu leteck!ch spole&ností, aby zm#'ili své síly ve sportovním klání, navázali nová p'átelství a p'íjemn# pro$ili n#kolik dní.


The inaugural WARR (World Airline Road

Race) was held in 1982 in San Francisco.

Then, 300 runners from 30 teams participated

in an event inspired by the Olympic Games

and developed their motto – “Winning is

something, but taking part is all.” From

a single innocuous gathering, WARR soon

developed into the biggest sporting and social

event in travel business calendar. In the past

few years, over 2500 running enthusiasts have

been lining up for the start of each annual

race. The event also has a social agenda, with

charity elements and the most recent race,

the 27th, was held in the Canadian city of

Ottawa.

SUCCESSES OF CZECH AIRLINES

In the sporting event, competitors are

challenged by courses of either 5 or

10 kilometers distance. Men and women have

separate events and there are categories for

veterans in order to be fair! The winners

of each category are announced (men

and women) as are the outright winners

for each course. The race itself has strict

rules but is also open to those for whom

sports are nothing more than a recreational

activity and who might even walk part of the

course. Whoever finishes the competition –

irrespective of how long they took, receives

an original memorial medal that always

displays something of the host country. Thus,

in Prague, medals were made of glass, while in

Australia the medals were shaped like thong

sandals, which originate from that continent.

Representatives of Czech Airlines accounted

themselves well in the eighth leg of the

World Airline Road Race in the German city

of Hamburg. Flight attendant Metod Fikes,

wearing our colours, won the 5k race in his

category and became the overall winner of

this discipline. Later, in Kuala Lumpur, he

went on to become the outright winner in

V(bec první závod WARR – World Airline Road Race – se uskute&nil v roce 1982 v San Francisku. Tehdy se ú&astnilo 30 t!m( a na 300 b#$c(, inspirací byly olympij-ské hry v&etn# hesla – nemusíme vyhrát, ale rádi se zú&ast)ujeme. Z nenápadné akce se stala nejv#t"í sportovn#-spole&enská cestovní událost na sv#t#. V posledních letech b!vá na startu kolem 2500 nad"enc(. Ov"em krom# sportovního programu má i spole-&ensk! ráz s charitativním podtextem. Zatím poslední, 27. ro&ník se konal v kanadské Ottaw#.

Aby m#li "anci na úsp#ch i ti d'íve narození, je na obou distancích vypsáno hned n#kolik v#kov!ch kategorií.

To p'ivedlo organizátory na my"lenku vyhlásit sout#$ o nejlep"í tri&ko s názvem T-Shirt Swap Party. Letos v této sout#$i zvít#zili australské Quantas. Po vyhlá"ení v!sledk( p'i-chází samoz'ejm# na 'adu i v!m#na tri&ek mezi jednotlivci.Pokud se p'ím!ch ú&astník( zeptáte, jaké tri&ko jim nejvíce utkv#lo v pam#ti, mnozí okam$it# odv#tí, $e to, které p'ivezli na 20. ro&ník sout#$e do "v!carského Luzernu zá-stupci American Airlines.

Vzpomíná se ale také na to,

by triumphing in the 5k race in Amsterdam.

This year we gained success in the women’s

category as well, when Edita Egley, an

employee of Czech Airlines in New York, won

the 10k women’s run in her age category.

THE BATTLE OF T-SHIRTS

Running isn’t the only competition in which

airlines compete: there is also the evaluation

of which of the teams designed the most

beautiful and original T-shirt. This contest

came into being spontaneously. During the

first race in San Francisco, the runners set

out in T-shirts bearing the symbols of their

cities or airline companies. Upon reaching

the finish, they started to exchange them and

this gave the organizers the idea to announce

a competition for the best one, called the

“T-shirt Swap Party”. This year, Australia’s

Quantas claimed victory. Of course, after the

winners are announced, there is an inevitable

exchange of T-shirts among competitors.

If you ask direct participants about most

memorable T-shirts, many will immediately

respond that those were undoubtedly

those brought to the 20th race in Luzern by

representatives of American Airlines shortly

after the attacks on the World Trade Center

on September 11, 2001. The winning T-shirts

were simple and simply bore the names of

the two airline crews that perished during

these terrorist attacks. Witnesses remember

that the T-shirts got a standing ovation and

were greatly sought after. Equally memorable

was how the Americans thanked everyone

for their support and for the wonderful

atmosphere at the event: thanks to all their

fellow participants, they could have a few

days full of peace and friendship – a few days

without thinking about the fateful tragedy.

GETTING TO KNOW THE HOST

COUNTRY

Through the T-shirt competition came

another, no less important feature of the

World Airline Road Race. This was the

social dimension, when the participants get

to know their host country and its

culture. For example, during the contest in

South Africa, a rail trip from Johannesburg

to Durban was organized for them. In the

Czech Republic, a steam locomotive took the

contenders to the “Meet and Greet” event

at 'esk( *ternberk castle. The departure

point, the legendary Fanta’s coffee-house

at Prague’s Main Railway Station, enabled

the participants to enjoy the beauty of its

“jugendstil” architecture. The good mood was

enhanced by a band on the train, excellent

food from Czech Airlines’ catering corps

and, of course, by liberal quantities of Czech

beer. In Sydney, the participants were able to

admire the Australian Maritime Museum with

its replicas of James Cook’s ship and other

historical vessels. In Ottawa they floated

down the Rideau Canal while being shown the

sights and sounds of Canada’s capital city.

It has also become a custom that

representatives of the competing companies

meet with the mayor or chief magistrate of the

host city and, as an expression of gratitude,

present them with a commemorative gift.

These are sometimes models of the aircraft

in the fleet of the airlines being represented.

The Mayor of Ottawa, Larry O’Brien, was

given Czech crystal glass and recordings of

Bed%ich Smetana’s and Antonín Dvo%ák’s

music.

CONTRIBUTIONS TO CHARITY

Part of the money raised through participants’

entry fees is given to charity. In Prague, some

was donated to Stromovka park (destroyed in

the floods) and in Sydney the recipient was

the Royal Flying Doctor Service (a medical

organization that provides free medical

help for everything from road accidents,

emergencies at distant cattle ranches to

assistance during complicated child deliveries

in remote areas). This year the proceeds went

to the TI – Le Loup et la Poule Foundation to

help child cancer patients.

Zvykem také je, $e se zástupci ú&astník( sejdou se starosty &i primátory po'adatel-sk!ch m#st a jako dík za jejich pomoc p'i organizaci klání jim p'edají dárky na památku.

P#ÍSP"VKY NA CHARITUZe startovného ú&astník( se &ást pen#z pou$ívá na charitu. V Praze to byla záplavami zni&ená Stromovka, v Sydney Royal Flying Doctor Service, léka'ská slu$ba, která bez-platn# pomáhá p'i nehodách na silnicích, v dolech, na dobyt&ích farmách nebo t'e-ba p'i t#$kém porodu. Letos v Ottaw# "el v!t#$ek do Fondu TI – Le Loup et la Poule na pomoc d#tské onkologii. Nejv#t"ím p'ínosem akce je ka$doro&ní setkání t#ch, kte'í se u$ na WARR sp'átelili, a navázání p'átelství nov!ch. M($e tady ale p'esko&it i milostná jiskra, z ní$ vznikne do-konce exotické man$elství, jak to dokazuje svatba singapurského pilota se zam#stnan-kyní Mexicany. Jejich syn nyní pat'í mezi nejmlad"í ú&astníky WARR.

POJE'TE S NÁMI DO (ÍNYCht#li byste pro$ít pár dní v jedine&né atmosfé'e WARR? Zú&astnit se mohou nejen za-m#stnanci leteck!ch spole&ností a jejich rodiny, ale i p'átelé. V roce 2009 prob#hne klá-ní ve dnech 10.–15. zá'í v &ínském Hangzhou, asi 200 km od +anghaje. V!hodné ceny zahrnují speciální zlevn#n! tarif na letenky pro kategorii NON AIRLINE. Sportovní &ást, tedy b#h nebo ch(ze na 5 nebo 10 km, je mo$no vynechat. Bli$"í infor-mace najdou zájemci na www.worldairlineroadrace.org.

Perhaps the greatest benefit of these events

is that friends can meet annually at WARR

to renew old friendships and form new

ones. Sometimes, even a love can be born,

as the wedding of a Singaporean pilot with

a Mexican employee proved. Their son is

now one of WARR’s youngest participants!

COME TO CHINA WITH US

If you would like to experience the unique

atmosphere of WARR for a few days, then

you should remember that participation

is not limited to airline employees and

their families, but can also include their

friends. The 2009 meeting will be held

in the Chinese city of Hangzhou, about

200 kilometers from Shanghai, between

September 10 and 15.

Costs are kept reasonable and prices

include the special discounted tariff

for the NON AIRLINE category and the

sporting events can be omitted if desired. If

interested, please find more information at

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 d.íve nebo pozd+ji). Lehká t+lesná námaha, nap.íklad procházka, vás osv+-í a uvolní, abyste se po p.íletu 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, zav.ete ústa a polkn+te nebo se zav.en"mi ústy jakoby vyfoukn+te vzduch. Pom,-e také -v"-ka*ka. Malé d+ti je mo-né zklidnit kojením nebo lahví opat.enou dudlíkem.Do letadla si vezm+te pohodlné, volné oble-*ení (nejlépe z p.írodních vláken). Poko-ku p.ed vysou!ením such"m vzduchem v letadle chra)te dobr"m zvlh*ova*em.Jezte v dob+, kdy se b+,n+ jí ve va-em cílovém *asovém pásmu. Snídan+ bohatá na bílkoviny a ob+d a ve*e.e 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 za.adit 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 /$ 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.
