An oven one of the greatest closed, heated containers that are used for heating, baking, and drying. It is used most often in cooking and pottery. They can dry heat to all surfaces of food inside them. An indoor oven can have an electric heating element, or be fired by natural gas or coal - because ovens can be heated up your food and
A toilet is one of the greatest inventions because back in the old days they had to dig a hole but nowadays they don’t but just saying if we didn’t have toilets or even knew how to make holes how would they go toilet why are they the greatest invention because people can go toilet instead of making there own.

The playground is named for Margaret Mahy, New Zealand's famous children's author. After it was reported in January 2016 that the slide got so hot during sunny summer days that it blistered fingers, shade sails were installed
The Park was once part of the Elsie Locke Playground, while the new expanded area was named after Margaret Mahy, one of Canterbury's most-loved authors. Part of the Government's Recovery Plan following the earthquakes of 2010/11, the playpark is the largest playground in the Southern Hemisphere.

The Lion and the Dog
A lion came upon a dog straying from the trees and didn’t want to take the life of such a helpless creature without a good excuse. So the lion said, “You are the dog that insulted me last year.” “That is impossible, sir,” bleated the dog for I wasn’t even born then.” “Well,” said the Lion “you eat from the jungle you may yet taste jungle dirt” “You drink from my lake then” continued the lion“Indeed,sir,” said the poor dog “I have never yet drunk anything but my mother's milk Well, anyhow.” and he sprang upon the dog and ate him for his dinner
:the lion and the Dog without another word.
The lion went away and never went back to where he killed the little dog

Tokelau facts
Tokelau has another name its ˈtoʊkəlaʊ or the Union Islands
Traditionally, Samoa, the Cook Islands, and Tuvalu have all been described as' homelands' by the people of Tokelau. The historical evidence available at the time of first European contact with the islands of Tokelau indicates a system of village
Since 1889, the external or international aspect of the Tokelau government has been dealt with by a variety of nonTokelau mechanisms.
A new element of indirect control has come in the late 20th century through the allocation of economic assistance by the Government of New Zealand.
on 29 February 1916. 7 The annexation followed the signing of a document by the Native Governments of the Union Islands‘ on 25-26 January 1916. That document, addressed to the King of England, stated that the rulers of Tokelau accepted British sovereignty
