Puzzles Right off the Press

This is the abbreviated version of the post I wanted to have, because I accidently clicked the wrong button while typing my blog post, and everything went away. I will discuss my former topic tomorrow.

 

But instead, I have the three puzzles I was planning to use for today's post.

 

 

Take the name of a musical instrument. Remove the last letter, and rearrange the remaining letters. You can now make a word that precedes the names of a bunch of other instruments. What are the words?

 

Take a two word phrase that is promoted by the Boy Scouts. If you write this two word phrase as one long word, you see three consecutive pairs of doubled letters (e.g. as in the word bookkeeper). What is the two word phrase?

 

What do these people have in common? Charlemagne, Lord Baden-Powell, Virgin Mary, and Reggie Bush.
