Introduction Ovens predate writing and reading. We find pictures of the earliest ovens in Egyptian cave paintings. Ovens are synonymous with human familiarity with fire. From deep pits on earth to electricity and AI, every human innovation has touched the oven and food that we eat. This assignment tries to find the details of how ovens have evolved over the ages. There is also the quest to understand different types of ovens used in different cultures and periods of time. Ovens are of many types depending upon how they are heated which in turn determines the purpose they serve. Food cravings and the way food is cooked is something very intimate to human tastes and mind. This assignment tries to understand this correlation in the light of dry facts and unearth how tastes have changed over periods of time and over locations.   History of ovens

An oven helps to expose materials to a hot environment.  The temperature can be controlled.  Thermally insulated chambers Different types of ovens depend on  Their purpose How they generate heat Kilns used for ceramics potteries and metallurgical and glass furnaces are ovens too.  Ovens produce heat using fuel or electricity.  Microwave oven: Exposes to microwave radiation Electric oven: Uses resistances Two types of ovens: Earth ovens: Dig heating chambers into the earth and cover them with leaves and soil.  Masonry ovens: Built-up ovens made with clay, bricks, cob, stone, etc. Earth oven/ Ground oven/ cooking pit Archeologists believe that it is the surest symbol that people lived around that place.  The fire is first built then it breaks into a smolder>> The food is placed in the oven and then covered>> The food  may take several hours to a day to cook https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth_oven - Nature gives food and tech gives oven ...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinetic_art It started when artists decided to lift the pictures and paintings off the page. They wanted to show that art is not rigid. Impressionism was the beginning of kinetic art. 

 Art critics say that music is expressive. But, art philosophers ask what are meant by an expressive kind of music and how to determine whether a music is really expressive or not.  What distinguishes an object of art from other things?  An art is something made by human and not what is naturally found in nature. All beautiful things are not objects of art. For example, a sunset is not an object of art. Also, driftwood is not an object of art. A piece of wood that is made to look like driftwood, however, is an object of art. Both the driftwood and the carved driftwood look similar but only the carved wood is an object of art.  The dilemma of objets trouvés The artist's perception can make anything a work of art.  These are found objects. It includes trash arts. These objects of art are made from materials not conventionally used to make arts.  Readymades of Marcel Duchamp: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Readymades_of_Marcel_Duchamp He chose the objects ...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spho%E1%B9%ADa   Sphota means to burst open.  It explains how the mind can accept the meaning of what is spoken in the language. It was propounded by Bhrtihari (Book= vakyapadiya) Vakyapadiya has three parts: Brahmakanda, vakyakanda, padakanda. The act of speech has three stages: Conceptualization by the speaker (Pasyanti=idea) It is an abstraction of the world, its ideas and concepts, and their relationships. It is a part of information science .  Domains of discourse/ Universe of discourse/ Universe/ Universal set: It is the universe according to us. This need not be the entire universe as it really is. But, it is the entire universe as seen by a particular individual. This universe may contain abstract things too. When giving fundamental rights, we do not talk about every particular citizen who is entitled to that fundamental right. We think of all the people as an abstract entity.  Performance of speaking (Madhyama= medium) Comprehen...

 Polar coordinate system Two-dimensional coordinate system.  Each point is defined by an angle and a distance.  Cartesian coordinate system is related to polar coordinate system by the application of trigonometry.  Two polar coordinates are Polar angle (angular coordinate or azimuth angle) and polar distance (radial coordinate).  Pole in polar coordinate system is equivalent to the origin in cartesian system.  The zero ray corresponds to polar axis which is like the x-axis in Cartesian coordinate. All angles are measured from the polar axis.  r>=0 and theta lies between [0, 360] or [-180, 180]   arctan means tan inverse Polar equation: It expresses an algebraic curve in polar coordinates. Different forms of symmetry can be deduced: Examples:  r(-t)= r(t) It is symmetrical about the horizontal.  It is symmetrical about the vertical.  Rotationally symmetric alpha degree about the pole

 Lumped element model is also called Lumped parameter model Lumped component model When there are some physical systems that extend into space then assumptions are made on them. Then, they are supposed to be composed of discrete elements and arranged in a certain topology.  The mathematical implication of lumped element model: The state space of the system comes to finite dimensions. A physical system has an infinite dimensional mathematical model in space and time. So, it needs Partial Differential Equations to define it. When the lumped element model is applied to such systems then there are finite parameters and ordinary differential equations can define it.  What is state space representation? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State-space_representation Control engg https://www.tutorialspoint.com/control_systems/index.htm Control system : A system that provides a desired response by regulating the output is called a control system.  The output is varied by controllin...

Characters: Mantra: The Healing witch, the Beast Prince's foster mother Princess Blossom: The girl of the prophecies and the Beast Prince's protegee Name of the empire: Garima; After Mantra disintegrates, Nature of Garima becomes the personification of Mantra Dyret: The name of the Beast Prince as christened by Mantra. Dylan was his original name.  Princess Hoshi: She is the love interest of the Beast Prince. Hoshi means 'star' in Japanese. Hoshi is so higher up petty considerations in life and has so much loyalty for her Prince, the Beast Prince, that she is ready to leave her own people and join him. Hoshi brings the downfall of her own people at the end when they are all convinced that the Beast Prince is dead and Blossom has escaped for her life. She is the reason why these people, who are her ancestors, are able to redeem themselves of their sins.  Queen Himawari: Himawari is the Japanese word for sunflower. Queen Himawari is a devout woman but she is hopeless bec...

 This book is all about angel energy healing. Jargon; Divine love, angel energy healing, divine frequency Take in healing energy then give it out is the process. This healing energy has something to do with light and love.  Health depends on an energy that flows throughout the life of a living being. Alignment with divine means being healthy. Lack of health is due to negative and limiting thoughts. Even injury manifests in the physical world due to this reason. Angel energy healing aligns on with this love to heal them. Angel energy healing has to flow through you to heal you.  Where does divine light flow through? It flows through the feet to the root chakra to the spine.  It also flows through the crown to remove all the unloving forces.  What does the divine light flow nourish? Mind Body Soul What manifests as an illness? The stoppage of the flow of this divine light due to : Blockage Drain due to guilt or dense energy then it manifests in the physical world ...

  Boral made this art.

 Edward Gibbon (Late 18th century) He was known as the first modern historian.  Memoirs of my life and writings The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire The prose is ironic. It cites original sources and gives political explanations of the decline and fall of the Roman Empire in the East and the West.  Gibbon had come to Rome to study the historical artifacts of Rome and what he had seen disturbed him very deeply. Gibbon was a product of European enlightenment and scorned enthusiasm. But, he felt precisely this enthusiasm when he saw the ruins of Rome. So, this is the first time we see the European Enlightenment giving way to the new Renaissance. This enthusiasm was a product of sensibility.  Sensibility in literature It developed in 18th-century Britain. It was seen as a condition in people with nerves that feel too much. These people weep, faint, or react easily. Having these nerves was both a boon and a bane. It was a boon because such people would ...
