Question #1: 

In 1445 in Moscow the bells on the churches rang very loudly and citizens decided the the doom day came. The same event was in 1091 in Kiev, in 1230 in Vladimir, and in 1802 in Moscow again. What was the reason for it?

      Charles XIV John of Sweden

      also known as  Jean Bernadotte, was one of Napoleons generals, during Anti-Royal Revolution in France (1799-1815)

      http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_XIV_John_of_Sweden

      Charles XIV John, King of Sweden 1818-1844, had a tattoo which said "Death to Kings" or "Long live the republic" - here

      so, he was against monarchs during revolution, thats why he made tatto: "death to kings", but soon changed his mind, after dying king of Sweden called him. Sweddish king had no sons, thats why he called Jean to continue royal dynasty.

    if anyone still here, then here we are:)

    when founder of sitting royal dynasty in Sweden died,  doctors found tatoo on his body: "Death to Kings", despite the fact he was king by himself. Why he had this tatoo?

    I wonder why Europe doesn't look for the bottom line reason for increasing rate of divorce.

    put that in your pipe and smoke it

    It may mean:
    Let it go the idea which is unworkable.
    Let it go off the unwanted thing.

    I am not sure.
