I would like to know more about Lipnik Nad Becvou (Czech Republic),?

Question

specially in the 1900's, life, traditions, history. And a good online translator Czech-English. Thanks a lot.

Answer 1

Lipník nad Bečvou is an ancient town with 8.5 thousand inhabitants lying in the very centre of the Moravian Gate valley, in its narrowest point. This ancient trade route is bordered by the Hostýn Hills o­n o­ne side and o­n the other side by the Odra Hills. The Bečva river flows through the area and, the Moravian Gate connects the fertile Haná Region with Silesia and additionally with the Moravian Wallachia. An important trade route called Amber Path passed it in the past.
Of natives of Lipník, Gutmann deserves to be noted as a former innkeeper whose trade activities earned him much property and his descendants became millionaires and even nobility.
From those ”knights”, David Gutmann (+ 1912) and his cousin Max built an almshouse in the place where David´s mother died, a winter Hebrew prayer house o­n the ground floor and a Jewish almshouse o­n the first floor.
There is also a 20.Secession monument of the sponsor John Neff and a memorial to a U.S. Air Force pilot Martin Zeberski (The Fall of Icaros) who was shot down and died near Nové Dvory o­n 22th August 1944 and the graves of important Piarists such as Mansuel Šebesta who was Bedřich Smetana´s teacher.
In 1936, a third building was added to the Town Hall. The fourth o­ne with a façade leading to Neruda Street was added o­nly in the 70´s of the 20th Century. The first three buildings have a Renaissance core. They are built in the spirit of classicism and historism of the mid- 20th Century. An interesting feature is a small clock tower.

Nobody has answered your question correctly, and some of the things written are outright wrong. Here's a list of things that need to be taken into consideration: 1. Football IS a contact sport. Anyone who says otherwise does not understand the meaning of the word's compound parts, and has obviously never seen or heard of a tackle or watched Italy's Claudio Gentile play. 2. Koller's size, build, and reaction to a foul is irrelevant. 3. Off-the-ball incidents in football are illegal. They are punishable by a sending-off in most International Tournaments. 4. Reactions to fouls are only relevant if there was no foul committed in the first place. 5. When the ball is out of play, an incident in which another player is struck or kept from moving is called 'retaliation', irrespective of whether something happened before among two players. Retaliations bring the game into what FIFA and UEFA are passionate about referring to as 'Disrepute', and treat such incidents as aforementioned 'off-the-ball' issues. Firstly, Volkan did not commit a foul. He can clearly be seen pushing Koller once the ball was out of play. That means the game had not continued yet - that's what injury time is for, to make up for times in which the players are on the field and the clock is running, but the game is not being played. Therefore, the incident needs to be treated as a retaliation, which are illegal in all sports I know of, football too. With no physical provocation, Volkan walked over to Koller and pushed him to the ground. 100 kilos plus or not, Koller was really pushed, and that is all that matters. He did not dive. His reaction was not relevant to the incident; he could have not fallen over and appealed to the linesman, or Assistant Referee in more recent terms, to complain about Volkan's conduct. The Swedish official would have dismissed Volkan in the same manner irrespective of Koller's reaction - such is their training; to judge not the reaction, which can be feigned, but the conduct of the players.
