Petra Pecková stated that the day before publishing the post, she met with the parents of the girl who survived a serious accident during a school trip but was left severely disabled. According to Pecková, the court attributed responsibility to the school and set damages in the tens of millions of crowns. The school was insured for 10 million, while the remaining amount, according to her, should be covered by the founder – a small municipality that did not have the means. Pecková noted that schools often do not have insurance for high amounts because such policies are expensive. She also wrote that similar cases fall under objective liability according to the Labor Code, and fulfillment is almost always certain. Therefore, she urged the government to consider supporting school insurance or establishing a guarantee fund at the Ministry of Education. She connected the proposal with the government's decision to support, starting next year, crop and livestock insurance for large agricultural enterprises. According to her, 200 million crowns a year was to be allocated for the new program of the Ministry of Agriculture. Pecková doubted whether farmers would actually secure better insurance thanks to the support, or whether their costs for existing policies would simply decrease. She also mentioned the possibility that they would continue to seek compensation for damages caused by frost or drought. #školství #pojištění #odpovědnost (translated)

Roman Kolář stated that the president did not have to explain his private trips or their cost. He deemed the requests for explanations inappropriate and an intrusion into the president’s privacy; at the same time, he wrote that the president responded to them, but his critics will continue. According to Kolář, the trips did not cost taxpayers anything. He added that the same people should also be interested in the cost of Tomio Okamura's flight from Prague to Slovakia, his trips in an official BMW, and his, according to Kolář, unnecessary trips to China with the communists. He reminded that Okamura, in his view, humiliated Markéta Pekarová and promised that he would not use the BMW. He was also interested in who would cover the damage for the flight to China that Zůna has now canceled. #prezident #soukromí #politika (translated)

Tribuna Sever thanked the fans who, according to them, traveled more than 3,000 kilometers to Baku. There were 420 people in the Slavia sector, most of whom were reportedly holding onto their flag. The actively cheering group appeared to be "a drop in the ocean" due to the distance from the pitch at the large stadium. They also thanked friends from Zagłębie Sosnowiec, BKS Stal Bielsko-Biała, and Czuwaj Przemyśl for their support during the trip. They announced a home match against Hradec for the weekend and provided information about it for the following day. They added that another trip awaited the fans just a week later when the draw for the Champions League sent them to the home ground of Istanbul's Fenerbahçe. According to Tribuna Sever, they were to attempt once more to end their wait for victory in the competition; the group intended to publish details about the trip after the match against Hradec. #fotbal #výjezd #fans (translated)

Tomas Kapler stated in his contribution that the discovery of two fragments of pyrite in a former clay pit near English Barnham, according to him, pushed evidence of fire being used by humans back by 350,000 years. A team from the British Museum, led by Nick Ashton and Rob Davis, found them in reddish clay, even though pyrite was not naturally present in the area, according to Kapler. Archaeologists also discovered charred and heat-cracked hand axes and soil burned at over 700 °C there. It reportedly took scientists four years to eliminate the possibility of a fire caused by lightning. Kapler wrote that research published in December 2025 in the journal Nature described the oldest unequivocal evidence that humans could make fire themselves. According to him, the previous such evidence came from Neanderthal sites in northern France and was 50,000 years old. The find from Barnham, according to Kapler, shows that humans had this ability already 400,000 years ago. Chris Stringer from the Natural History Museum in London speculated that they were early Neanderthals, among other reasons based on finds from Swanscombe and Atapuerca. The contribution also addressed the fact that archaeological finds mainly preserve stone, while wood, leather, and plant fibers deteriorate. Kapler recalled a 35,000-year-old tool made from mammoth ivory from the German cave Hohle Fels, whose holes, according to him, allowed for the production of rope, and a six-millimeter fragment of a cord 50,000 years old found in the French Abri du Maras. Archaeologist Bruce Hardy's estimate that we know less than 10 percent of the ordinary life of prehistoric humans was linked by Kapler to the items that did not survive, such as nets, bags, bowstrings, or footwear. According to his conclusion, the image of the Stone Age captures primarily what has not perished. #Archeologie #DobaKamenná #Historie (translated)

Pět Britů, kteří byli rasově segregováni farmářkou při jejich nedělním výletu, bylo policií propuštěno po krátkém výslechu. Zatím není jasné, kdy bude farmářka obviněna a zatčena. Doufejme, že však na svobodě již dlouho nebude. https://t.co/FoEXU4Apor #rasismus #segregace #justicenow #GB
