Rowling confessed in an interview with The Sunday Times that these narrative decisions were "chosen for very personal reasons, not for grounds of veracity."

Ancient trumpets made of silver and bronze have been discovered in Egyptian graves, and similar instruments have also been discovered in Scandinavia, Asia, and South America. The earliest trumpets, however, were used for military and religious purposes rather than for musical performance, so this does not imply that King Tut was playing in a jazz band.

If you or someone you know has ever quit smoking with nicotine gum, you can thank Sweden. Nicorette, the first product, was created by Leo AB in Helsingborg. It was inspired by the fact that while on duty, smoking Swedish submariners would switch from tobacco to chewing tobacco or snus to get their nicotine fix. Nicorette wasn't the first time nicotine was placed in chewing gum, but they did design a polymer that regulated the flow of nicotine into the bloodstream, allowing for a continuous release and a gradual withdrawal, allowing millions of people to stop for good.

Some of the most futuristic items in the Star Wars films were made from strange materials. Like Luke Skywalker's lightsaber, which was actually the handle of an old camera flash, or the medical droid's mouthpiece in Empire Strikes Back, which was simply an old-school microphone.

You probably didn't think twice about the communicators used by Qui-Gon Jinn (Liam Neeson) and Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor). However, if you did, you may have noticed that they are designed just like a Gillette razor.

Lower levels are almost biologically dead. One of the most intriguing aspects of the Black Sea is its absence of oxygen, which is required for life. Because oxygen can only be dissolved in the sea's top layers, anything below 230-330 feet in the centre and 330-500 feet at the edge is effectively a dead zone. Only particular bacteria can thrive in these areas, which account for more than 90% of the deeper water.

In his piece, he presented a "brunch" alternative to the usual Sunday supper.

Only three years after it was adopted, Ambedkar was dissatisfied with the document. Why? He argued vehemently for the governors to be given more authority. "Sir, my friends claim that I am the author of the Constitution." However, I am willing to bet that I will be the first to burn it out. It's not something I want. In the Rajya Sabha in 1953, he stated, "It does not suit anyone."

Termites can communicate and navigate their environment thanks to organs at the bases of their antennae and tibiae that can detect vibrations. Soldier termites will bang their heads against the tunnel walls when there is a potential threat, vibrating the colony as a warning. Some termite species even use the vibroacoustic signals given off by wood to decide which food source to invade next, in addition to using them for communication.

Any claim that chamomile will improve hair quality is speculative at best, although Kluge observes that due to its cooling and modestly anti-inflammatory characteristics, a chamomile tea hair rinse could theoretically help soothe dry and irritated scalp issues like dandruff or itching. There isn't enough scientific evidence to support its usefulness, but if you have any on hand, it can't harm to give it a shot.
