In mathematics, a meander or closed meander is a self-avoiding closed curve which intersects a line a number of times. Intuitively, a meander can be viewed as a road crossing a river through a number of bridges.
Given a fixed oriented line L in the Euclidean plane R2, a meander of order n is a non-self-intersecting closed curve in R2 which transversally intersects the line at 2n points for some positive integer n. The line and curve together form a meandric system. Two meanders are said to be equivalent if there is a homeomorphism of the whole plane that takes L to itself and takes one meander to the other.
The meander of order 1 intersects the line twice:
The meanders of order 2 intersect the line four times:
The number of distinct meanders of order n is the meandric number Mn. The first fifteen meandric numbers are given below (sequence A005315 in OEIS).
A meandric permutation of order n is defined on the set {1, 2, ..., 2n} and is determined by a meandric system in the following way:
Kiss is a 2009 thriller novel by Christian author Ted Dekker and Erin Healy.
Shauna McAllister is unable to recall past events and it all started six weeks after a car accident that left her suffering a coma. She doesn’t recall anything about the accident, as well as the months leading up to the accident. Alligations surface that effect Shauna, and her father, Landon McAllister.

Shauna is somewhat aware that something stands in the way for their relationship to be reconciled. Her brother Rudy who is her only ally, and her father’s favorite is the victim in the very accident she is being blamed for.
Shauna turns to Wayne Spade, her forgotten boyfriend, to help her piece things together to figure out the events that led up to the accident. On her journey for answers she discovers a mental ability which causes more questions to be raised. She begins to lose trust in all those around her, and it starts to become clear that those around her are determined to keep her from recovering her memories that she pursues.

Kiss (2003) is an darkwave/electronic album by Dianna St. Hilaire, better known as Versailles.
In 2003, Versailles released her first full-length album Live Your Life. Later that year, she created an all-electronic single called "Kiss", breaking away from the previous heavier guitar-based sound. The single was written, produced, mixed and mastered by St. Hilaire. This was released in late 2003 on a limited number of CD-R's. The album is a rare find and is available on her website.
