The love partnerships revealed in the story's epilogue were one of the most contentious aspects of the Harry Potter series' ending. Rowling chose Ron and Hermione in a controversial choice, despite many fans' desire to see Harry and Hermione get their happily ever after. It almost goes without saying that Rowling regrets matching Harry with Ginny Weasley, believing that Harry and Hermione should have ended up together. Rowling confessed in an interview with The Sunday Times that these narrative decisions were "chosen for very personal reasons, not for grounds of veracity."
During the scientific excavation of the site from 1912 to 1915, Hiram Bingham's team collected thousands of artifacts from the ruins and sent them to Yale University. Ceramics, jewelry, silver pieces, and human bones were among the artifacts discovered.

While the British forbade lipstick, it remained a popular option in the good old USA, or more correctly, the American colonies. Colonial ladies altered the color of their lips by smearing red ribbons on them and sipping lemons. One colonial-era whisky company even advertised that it would turn consumers' lips crimson. They were probably mixing up the lips with the nose and Gin Blossoms. The original first lady, Martha Washington, had her own formula for lip rouge. She combined hog's lard with spermaceti discovered in whale intestines. That sounds really revolting!
The Kids Are Drawn To The Beautiful Forms Kids are frequently drawn to the lovely magical form of kaleidoscopes. The reflection will take on varied forms as a result of the light and the mirror. Adults will probably adore having it too!
The most prestigious university of America cannot have its students getting distracted from school now, can they? Commercial filming on university grounds is banned at Harvard and it has been a no-film zone since 1970.

If your bathroom mirrors are constantly fogged up after a hot shower, rub a cucumber slice along the mirror. It will remove the mist and leave you with a relaxing, spa-like fragrance. If you've written something in pen and made a mistake, the cucumber's outer waxy coating can be used to erase pen writing! Cucumbers are 96% water, if you didn't know.
We can also thank Hollywood for more neutral nail trends. According to legend, Jeff Pink, the founder of the nail polish brand Orly, invented the French manicure in 1975 to speed up the makeup process for actresses who change costumes frequently.

Historical records state that 2000 people helped with his funeral arrangements. His army killed these 2000 individuals. Then, his escort killed the army. In addition, the escort killed anyone who got in their way so they could hide and bury him there. Finally, according to the legend, they committed suicide upon arriving at their destination. The slaves who built Genghis Khan's tomb were also murdered by his soldiers after it was finished. After that, soldiers perished as well. Thus, anyone who is aware of the burial site was either dead or killed.
While most people add roses to their gardens for their beauty, roses have a long history of being used as food and medicine. Roses are classified as "herbs," and as such, they are considered useful plants. Their petals are edible, and rose water (made by soaking the petals in water) is frequently used to flavor jellies and jams, as well as in Indian and Chinese dishes. Keep in mind that if you're going to eat roses, they should be chemical-free. Use roses that have not been sprayed with pesticides or other chemicals, and avoid using cut roses from a flower shop or supermarket because they have been grown with a variety of chemicals. It is possible to grow your own roses.

In stark contrast to their modern-day high status, lobsters were routinely fed to convicts during colonial times (and slaves). They were filthy, inexpensive, and everywhere. Prisoners were ordered to limit their consumption of lobster to three days a week when they became sick of it.
When you sit quietly and imagine the accomplishment of your goals while looking at your vision boards, you are actually boosting your capacity to focus. You are no longer constrained by the constraints of your day. The more you visualise, the more focused you will be. We are all aware that concentration is critical in today's environment. Every day will present you with numerous distractions and disruptions. One reason people fail to reach their goals is that they become distracted by their daily lives, eventually forgetting about their ambitions and being lost in their busy lives. This is why you need a vision board to guide you through the tornado of daily life.
There are fine artists who have chosen crochet as their preferred technique, which is a true testament to the adaptability of this craft.

Find out more about crochet as art; you'll be amazed!

If you ask someone to list three things that are uniquely Russian, they will most likely mention cold, communism, and, of course, vodka. It should come as no surprise that the Russians were overjoyed when the Third Reich fell after being punched almost all the way to Moscow by the Nazis and battling their way back to Berlin. The Soviet Union was enveloped in jubilation and street celebrations that lasted for days and days — even non-drinkers regarded this as reason enough to join in the fun. That is, until the nation's vodka stockpiles were depleted. Only 22 hours after the festivities began. The countrywide hangover has now begun...
