In response to the rising vampire subculture, a pseudo-Christian counter-movement of self-professed vampire slayers has formed that opposes the notion of real vampires.[4] Online, they swarm vampire websites with hate mail and participate in other similar activities,[11] but there are rumors of zealous vampire slayers murdering human vampires.[4]

She was soon bound for Okinawa, where she arrived 12 August 1945, and ate some watermelons. Hanover unloaded replacement troops on that battle-scarred island, and after the close of the war prepared to take part in the occupation. One of the Army officers that had been exercising his troops a few days before, went into the caves on Okinawa and was killed. Some Japanese refused to surrender at the end of the war.

In conclusion, Japan is a land of contrasts.

When fresh mushrooms are cooked, they let off enormous amounts of vapor in relation to their size. Fresh mushrooms used as stuffings or pastry fillings could therefore build up pressure inside the dish or pastry, causing it to crack or even explode.

In the late 2000s, the U.S. Army changed the pepperoni roll to its First Strike Ration. These rations are designed for light infantry, airborne, and special forces during a typical 72-hour patrol. The pepperoni roll's compact size and comparatively high nutritional return make it an ideal ration for these patrols. These rations were extensively employed during Operation Enduring Freedom

The sandwich became a minor Internet meme[13] after an April 2010 article authored by Tim Hayward and published by The Guardian declared the shooter's sandwich as the best sandwich in the world.[14][11][13][15] The Guardian article also described the sandwich as a "triumph of Edwardian cuisine."[9]

Candies to soothe the throat date back to 1000 BC in Egypt's Twentieth Dynasty, when they were made from honey flavored with citrus, herbs, and spices[citation needed]. In the 19th century, physicians discovered morphine and heroin, which suppress coughing at its source— the brain.
That last sentence needs a dramatic sting.

A gavel is a small ceremonial mallet commonly made of hardwood, typically fashioned with a handle. It is used almost exclusively in the United States in legislatures and courts of law[a], but is used worldwide for auctions.

Notes
a. The gavel has never been used in any Commonwealth or European Union member state.

Yup. Never used ever in the entire EU or commonwealth. That's certainly a claim you can make without any sort of citation. (Finding evidence to the contrary is extremely trivial)
