clear: perception is an active power (δύναμις) of the soul rather than a passive potency to receive information (IV.6.2.2–3), which is applied to memory in the subsequent chapter (IV.6.3). However, even though this makes good sense for memory, it is not

Subtitling for television is an area that has only recently found its niche in Translation Studies. This paper, based on the author's M.A. research into a corpus of subtitled material shown on Croatian Television (HRT), is a modest contribution to the growing sub-field(s) of Translation Studies variously referred to as 'screen translation', 'audiovisual translation' (AVT) or, more broadly, 'multimedia translation'. The paper offers a brief survey of the key features of subtitling and then goes on to illustrate how these may shed light on particular aspects of translation in general. The analysis focuses on interpersonal relations between the fictional characters of a popular U.S. TV series (ER) and examines what happens to those relations when the audiovisual source product is subtitled for the audience of a nationwide, public TV network in south-eastern Europe. The constraints inherent to the subtitling technique prove useful for isolating particular pragmatic elements and examining their function in the achievement of the overall communicative goal. The analysis focuses on various forms of address, which are examined in terms of the pragmatic notions of 'power' and 'solidarity'. The approach is a descriptive one, applying the theoretical framework and analytical tools adopted from Hatim and Mason (1990 and 1997) and Mason (1989).

The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of additional resistance training on cardiorespiratory endurance in young (15.8±0.8 yrs) male basketball players. Experimental group subjects (n=23) trained twice per week for 12 weeks using a variety of general free-weight and machine exercises designed for strength acquisition, beside ongoing regular basketball training program. Control group subject (n=23) participated only in basketball training program. Oxygen uptake (VO2max) and related gas exchange measures were determined continuously during maximal exercise test using an automated cardiopulmonary exercise system. Muscle power of the extensors and flexors was measured by a specific computerized tensiometer. Results from the experimental group (VO2max 51.6 ± 5.7 ml.min−1.kg−1 pre vs. 50.9±5.4 ml.min−1.kg−1 post resistance training) showed no change (p>0.05) in cardiorespiratory endurance, while muscle strength and power of main muscle groups increased significantly. These data demonstrate no negative cardiorespiratory performance effects on adding resistance training to ongoing regular training program in young athletes.
