The objective of the thesis entitled The Comparison of the Horsemanship Method and the English Riding Style is to characterise the horsemanship method and the English riding style on the basis of literature search, to describe and compare the two methods in the monitored groups of horses as regards the ground work, saddle breaking and under-saddle work, and to generally compare horsemanship and English riding. The literature review describes the characteristics, principles and recommended training practices for the two methods under comparison. The practical part of this thesis compares the two methods of horse training. A comparative report has been created as a supporting tool to assess the training of ten horses. The assessment and subsequent comparison were based on four aspects: the physical and the mental aspects of the horse, the rider's confidence in the horse, and time in order to consider all the factors involved in horse training. Furthermore, the thesis characterises the monitored horses and the training used, providing a comparison for each of the training stages – ground work, saddle breaking and work under saddle. The thesis concludes by providing a general comparison of the two horse training methods. Horsemanship showed better outcomes as regards the physical and the mental aspects of the horse as well as the rider’s confidence in the horse. On the contrary, the horses trained using the English riding style took less time to train. The biggest differences were observed in the early stages of training.

The first synthesis of zeolite A was performed using a kaolin waste generated from the beneficiation of kaolin for paper production process was studied. The kaolin waste was thermally activated at a temperature range of 550-800?C. For comparison was performed a synthesis pattern of Zeolite A(procedure IZA). The prepared materials were characterized by 27Al MAS NMR, X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy with microprobe rays. The pre-tramento proved to be the most appropriate and suitable temperatures are between 600 and 700?C. Observed the formation of zeolite A in all materials, reaching 52% crystallinity, and the presence of phase sodalite and amorphous material. The second study was the use of a highly reactive metakaolin originating from the Jari region in the synthesis of zeolite A by a new method of hydrothermal synthesis. The zeolite is obtained pure and highly crystalline employing the Jari kaolin calcined at 600 ? C for 2h when the transformation to metakaolin occurs. Get to zeolite phase A at 4pm. The best crystallization time was of 24 h afforded a crystallinity of 67.9%. The third study was the evaluation of the NaOH / metakaolin and crystallization time on the synthesis of zeolite NaA from a sample of kaolin waste, named Kaolin Coverage. The experiments were performed using statistical design (axial points) and rejoinder the center point. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning microscopic analysis and chemical analysis using an EPMA microprobe. The results showed that a relationship exists between the amount of NaOH added and the crystallization time. The experiment performed using the lowest ratio NaOH / metakaolin (0.5) and shorter (4 h) produced an amorphous material. The increase ratio of NaOH / metakaolin and crystallization time leads to formation of a more crystalline NaA phase, but the presence of phase with sodalite as impurities / Tr?s estudos foram realizados empregando rejeitos de caulins para a s?ntese da ze?lita A. O primeiro a s?ntese da Ze?lita A foi realizada utilizando-se um rejeito de caulim, gerado a partir do processo de beneficiamento de caulim para produ??o de papel, foi estudada. O rejeito de caulim foi ativado termicamente em um intervalo de temperatura de 550 a 800?C. Para efeito de compara??o foi realizada uma s?ntese padr?o de Ze?lita A (procedimento da IZA). Os materiais preparados foram caracterizados por RMN-MAS de 27Al, difra??o de raios X e Microscopia eletr?nica de varredura com microsonda. O pr?-tramento mostrou-se necess?rio e as temperaturas mais adequadas foram entre 600 e 700?C. Observou-se a forma??o da ze?lita A em todos os materiais, alcan?ando-se 52% de cristalinidade, al?m da presen?a da fase sodalita e de material amorfo. O segundo estudo foi o emprego de um metacaulim altamente reativo origin?rio da regi?o do Jar? na s?ntese da Ze?lita A atrav?s de um novo m?todo de s?ntese hidrotermal. A zeolita A ? obtida pura e altamente cristalina empregando o caulim da regi?o do Jar? calcinado a 600?C por 2h quando ocorre a transforma??o para metacaulim. Obtem-se a fase zeolita A em 4h. O melhor tempo de cristaliza??o encontrado foi de 24 h que proporcionou uma cristalinidade de 67,9 %. E o terceiro estudo foi a avalia??o da rela??o de NaOH / metacaulim e tempo de cristaliza??o na s?ntese da ze?lita NaA a partir de uma amostra de rejeito de caulim, nomeado como Caulim de Cobertura. Os experimentos foram realizados utilizando planejamento estat?stico (com pontos axiais) e treplica do ponto central. As amostras obtidas foram caracterizadas por difra??o de Raios-X (DRX), an?lises microsc?picas de varredura e an?lise qu?mica utilizando-se uma microssonda EPMA. Os resultados mostraram que existe uma rela??o entre a quantidade de NaOH adicionado e o tempo de cristaliza??o. Os experimento realizados utilizando a mais baixa rela??o NaOH / metacaulim (0,5) e menor tempo (4 h) produziu um material amorfo. J? o aumento da rela??o NaOH /Metacaulim e o tempo de cristaliza??o leva a forma??o de uma fase NaA mais cristalina, mas com a presen?a da fase sodalita como impureza

La présente étude a pour objectif de comprendre la critique que formule Chŏng Yagyong丁若鏞 (1762-1836) du Shangshu (Livre des Documents) en guwen (graphie ancienne). Lettré-fonctionnaire à la Cour de Chŏngjo (r. 1776-1800), Chŏng Yagyong appartient à l’époque Chosŏn (1392-1897) en Corée, à une ère charnière de l’histoire coréenne qui oscille entre tradition et modernité, entre le néoconfucianisme et la découverte de certains savoirs scientifiques et religieux venus d’Occident. Notre étude vise trois objectifs. Le premier est de découvrir l’immense érudition de l’auteur, dont le penchant encyclopédique caractérise toute l’œuvre, et sa méthode d’investigation très personnelle. Le deuxième est de discerner, dans ses écrits, les influences chinoises et occidentales et les fruits de sa propre réflexion. Le troisième est de percevoir le message politique à travers les lignes de son commentaire qui révèle une partie des motivations de l’auteur. Cette étude se divise en quatre chapitres. Le premier, qui a valeur de chapitre introductif, présente et définit l’étendue de notre sujet ; le deuxième offre une analyse contextuelle du Shangshu en guwen ; le troisième procède à une analyse surtout textuelle du commentaire de Tasan sur ce Classique ; le quatrième porte sur le double examen par Zhu Xi et Tasan des seize caractères des « Conseils de Yu le Grand ». / The objective of this study is to achieve an understanding of the criticism made by Chŏng Yagyong丁若鏞 (1762-1836) of the guwen (old-script) version of the Shangshu (Book of Documents). A scholar-official at the court of Chŏngjo (r. 1776-1800), Chŏng Yagyong lived during the Joseon Dynasty (1392-1897), at a turning point in Korean history, caught between tradition and modernity, Neo-Confucianism and the discovery of scientific and religious knowledge from the West. The study has three objectives. Firstly, to discover the vast erudition of an author whose entire work was characterised by an encyclopaedic tendency, along with his very personal research methods. Secondly, to discern in his writings Chinese and Western influences and the fruits of his own reflection. Thirdly, to perceive, between the lines of his commentary, a political message revealing part of the author’s motivations. The study is divided into four chapters. The first, an introductory chapter, presents and defines the scope of the subject; the second offers a contextual analysis of the guwen version of the Shangshu; the third presents a mostly textual analysis of Tasan’s commentary of this Classic; the fourth concerns Zhu Xi and Tasan’s twofold examination of the sixteen characters of the “Counsels of Yu the Great”.

This diploma thesis is dealing with income from dependent activities and perquisites. We might often see disputes in terms of delimitation of dependent activities. Accordingly, the aim of this thesis is, in the first stage, to delineate dependent activities based on analysis of valid legislation, relevant judicial decisions and approach of particular state institutions. Fringe benefits are subject to analysis of the second chapter from the personal income tax perspective. Taxation of the most common incentive plans, which is not explicitly stipulated in the income taxes act, is deeply analyzed in this chapter. Moreover, taxation of particular fringe benefits, which are stipulated in the income taxes act and could be exempted from taxation under certain circumstances, is subject to my analysis in the second chapter.

The present diploma thesis is concerned with English non-prepositional equivalents of the Czech v/ve and z/ze prepositional phrases. This type of equivalent is found in approximately 20% of cases (Klégr et al., 2011). The thesis shows that some of the divergent equivalents are conditioned lexically (different valency of the Czech and English verb), while others, being of systemic nature, are related to typological differences between Czech and English. Among the systemic counterparts are particularly English locative subjects in sentence-initial position correspoding to Czech adverbials, and English premodification by a noun translated into Czech as postmodification by a prepositional phrase. Material for the analytical part was extracted from the "Core" of the parallel corpus InterCorp, consisting of original Czech fiction texts and their English translations. A total of more than 200 divergent counterparts of both Czech prepositional phrases was collected.

This thesis deals with the execution of social security benefits. The thesis is divided into six chapters, which are broken down into subsections. It also includes an introduction and a conclusion. The first chapter describes the batch system in the Czech Republic. After defining the concept of social security benefit, the principles are described in the provision of social security benefits and the breakdown of social security benefits. Furthermore, according to the systems of social security rights defined by individual social security benefits. The second section describes the types of executions. First, it discusses the judicial enforcement. In this section we describe two methods of enforcement, which by their nature are possible in execution of social security benefits. It is a payroll deductions and receivables commandments. Other subsections devoted to execution under the Enforcement Regulations, administrative execution, tax execution and parallel execution. The third chapter discusses the execution of health insurance benefits. Herein, the benefits of which can perform execution deductions from wages and benefits that can affect seizures. Further, it discusses the deviations in the implementation of deductions of health insurance benefits from the normal procedure for making payroll deductions....

This study concentrates on psychology of death and psychology of meaning of life. The primary goal is to survey personal conceptions of death as a state. Theoretical part of this study presents psychological view on topics of death and human percieving of awareness of their own mortality, outlines intercultural view on common motives across eschatologies and their relation to various psychological and philosophical approaches on death, and summarizes certain aspects of ontogenesis of death conceptions. One chapter focuses on dimensions of psychological construct of meaning in life. Other chapter resumes previous psychological research on areas of psychology of death and psychology of meaningfulness of life. Both quantitative and qualitative approaches were used to explore our topic. To get descriptions of personal conceptions of death as state in population of young adults, qualitative methodes were used. Scales were administered to access levels of death anxiety and meaning in life, strenghts of belief in an afterlife, and to monitor emotions regarding own images of death as state. Relationship between death anxiety and emotions regarding own images of death as state was proven significant based on research realized on population of 51 young adults. Collected quantitative data did not serve as a...

In both parts there is short chapter about valuation, followed by chapters: depreciation, impairment of longlived tangible assets, longlived intangible assets, inventories, receivables and financial assets. In the IFRS part there is also described impairment of assets held for sale.

The present thesis deals with different methods of financing home constructions in the Czech Republic provided through mortgage loans and loans from building societies. In the first part of the thesis, I describe both main products, mentioning briefly their history in the territory of the Czech Republic. The advantages and disadvantages of both options are also pointed out. In the empirical part, I used comparative analysis to compare both products' profitability with respect to the client. The aim of the present thesis is not only to give specific details on the functioning of mortgage loans and building society accounts, but also and most importantly to discover, which one of the studied products is more beneficial for the client, once the client chooses to finance a new home through this kind of products.
