Was she sitting in a window downing a bottle of vodka, as in War and Peace?

In spite of his (Pierre Bezukhov) good intentions we find him a few hours later with his ‘friends’ Anatole Kuragin and Dolokhov. He clearly feels more at home at the wild drinking-bout that they’re having.

Competitive skating it not an easy world to live in. These kids literally do nothing by skate and so often (at least for the girls), their career is over before they know it. If you’ve got nothing to fill the void when you’re no longer skating 6-8 hours a day, it’s a big challenge.

I remember an All In The Family episode where Meathead, or someone, was talking about people killed with guns. Archie says, “Would youse be happier if they was pushed out of windows?”.

There have been several reports of Russian citizens ‘falling out of windows’ in the last few months. A few scientists among them.

I remember several years ago, a Russian journalist "fell" out of her window.
