Why did the soviet authorities erected a statue to Prometheus near Chernobyl when the nuclear power station was first built?
Because Prometheus the titan gave the gift of fire to humankind so that they can start their civilization, live in cities and build empires. He is the symbol of intellect which pierces through the darkest night and brings prosperity to humanity instead of chaos. Nuclear power was considered to be as important to humanity as fire; for us, technological development is the new "Prometheus" which provides us with the "gift" of nuclear fusion. Ironic, considering that Prometheus was caught and tortured by the gods - and nuclear fusion destroyed everything around Chernobyl in a nuclear holocaust.
How can you numb your ear so you don't feel any pain while getting pierced?
Ice it until it is numb. put ice on the ear for awhile till you wont feel it... Don't let your friends pierce your ears. Go to someone who pierces ears professionally, and they'll do it quick so all you'll feel is a slight pinch if you feel anything. If your friend does it, she'll be all "let me do it slow so it won't hurt" and then it will hurt. If you do it quick, it's done before your brain knows something that's supposed to hurt is being done to you. A professional piercer won't numb your ears because you don't need it.

How did the Japanese torture the Chinese?
I got a better answer.I'm Singaporean and learning History in school and currently learning about this.There are a lot of torture ways,I'll list them out for you,I don't know everything but I'll list what I know =) 1) Stuffs a hose into a person's mouth then fill the person's stomach with water till it's bloated then jump on the stomach and the stomach bursts then the intestines and internal organs flies out.Creepy right! 2) They place some mice under a metal cover on your stomach then heat it and then when it's hot then the mice will start to scratch the person's stomach until it's full of wholes and won't stop till they find a way out or when the Japanese stops.Eew 3) They hang you onto something I don't know what then place a growing bamboo under you and wait for it to grow until it pierces through your whole body 0.0 4 ) This one a little bit disgusting.They use a certain kind of nail clipper to pluck off your nails.Then when it's pluck off it bleeds right? After that they sprinkle salt and vinegar on the wound...OMG then it will start to get infected and rot but the worse is that after every 3 or 4 days they will come back and sprinkle some more till the fingers rot away... There's still a lot,like raping and if you come past a Japanese soldier and don't greet them then off you go to heaven.If you're not Singaporean I suggest you come to Singapore and learn about our history,its interesting and the place here is very nice =)
