# Melukat

Melukat is a cleansing ritual of the mind, body, and spirit using water practiced in Bali, Indonesia. This ceremony has been passed down through generations among the Hindu community to the present day. Spiritual purification in this context means eliminating impurities within oneself. The term Melukat is derived from the words "su" meaning "good" and "lukat" meaning "purification". The Melukat ceremony is led by a priest and involves offerings such as prascita and bayuan, prepared with accompanying mantras. The individual to be purified is first subjected to mantras by the priest. After the mantra process is completed, the person is bathed with coconut water. Following the coconut water bath, the ritual continues with immersion in a lake, river, sea, or a bathing place believed to bring blessings. This ceremony is typically performed during Hindu religious days, such as Purnama, Tilem, and Kajeng Kliwon. Melukat ceremonies are often conducted collectively, such as by schools, offices, government bodies, or local communities. The ceremonies take place at historical sites, temples, bathing places, beaches, rivers, and the sea in Bali. The ritual can be found in several places such as Tirta Empul Temple, Campuhan Windhu Segara Temple, Sebatu Holy Spring Temple, Tirtha Sudamala Temple, Saraswati Temple in Ubud, and Goa Giri Putri Temple in Nusa Penida. Tirta Empul Temple is arguably considered the most renowned location for the ritual. The ritual has since become a tourist attraction.

# Mem (computing)

In computing, mem is a measurement unit for the number of memory accesses used or needed by a process, function, instruction set, algorithm or data structure. Mem has applications in computational complexity theory, computing efficiency, combinatorial optimization, supercomputing, computational cost (algorithmic efficiency) and other computational metrics.
Example usage, when discussing processing time of a search tree node, for finding 10 × 10 Latin squares: "A typical node of the search tree probably requires about 75 mems (memory accesses) for processing, to check validity. Therefore the total running time on a modern computer would be roughly the time needed to perform 2×10$^{20}$ mems." (Donald Knuth, 2011, The Art of Computer Programming, Volume 4A, p. 6).
Reducing mems as a speed and efficiency enhancement is not a linear benefit, as it trades off increases in ordinary operations costs.

## PFOR compression

This optimization technique also is called PForDelta
Although lossless compression methods like Rice, Golomb and PFOR are most often associated with signal processing codecs, the ability to optimize binary integers also adds relevance in reducing MEMS tradeoffs vs. operations. (See Golomb coding for details).
# Secret Touch

"Secret Touch" is a song by Canadian rock band Rush, and is the eighth track from the band's 2002 studio album, Vapor Trails. It has been revealed to be one of singer Geddy Lee's favorite tracks from the album. It was released as the second single from Vapor Trails, reaching #25 on the US Mainstream Rock chart.
In an interview in the magazine Bass Player in July 2002, Geddy Lee talked about the song:
   "This is a bit of an extravaganza. We built the song around these repeating bass chords that I thought sounded like French horns. The tune has a hypnotic feel, and because we weren't happy just enjoying that feel, we had to smack it up with some power. When we get to the middle section and all hell breaks loose, there are these stuttering bass punctuations. I double-tracked them, but on one of the tracks I went in and digitally truncated the notes to make them sound really abrupt and punchy."
He also further said:
   "There's another point where I'm playing straight 16th-notes, and when we were jamming originally, we could hear the sound of my fingers slapping against the string-but when we played it back it didn't have the same 'smack'. So we put up a mike and recorded the sound of my fingers while we were laying down the parts, and we used it subtly in the mix. I don't know how much of it survived under all the guitars, but it's there."
# Segre surface

In algebraic geometry, a Segre surface, studied by Corrado Segre (1884) and Beniamino Segre (1951), is an intersection of two quadrics in 4-dimensional projective space. They are rational surfaces isomorphic to a projective plane blown up in 5 points with no 3 on a line, and are del Pezzo surfaces of degree 4, and have 16 rational lines. The term "Segre surface" is also occasionally used for various other surfaces, such as a quadric in 3-dimensional projective space, or the hypersurface
    $x_{1}x_{2}x_{3}+x_{2}x_{3}x_{4}+x_{3}x_{4}x_{5}+x_{4}x_{5}x_{1}+x_{5}x_{1}x_{2}=0.\,$
# Melvin E. Sherwin

Melvin Ernest Sherwin (July 17, 1881 – January 5, 1924) was an American soil scientist, agronomist, academic, and founding member of FarmHouse fraternity. He was a professor and department head in soil sciences at what is now North Carolina State University.

## Early life

Serwin was born in South Dakota on July 17, 1881. He enrolled in the University of Missouri in 1903 and graduated with a B.S. in agriculture in 1908. While there, he became one of the seven founders of the FarmHouse fraternity on April 15, 1905.
He received an M.A. in agriculture from the University of California, Berkeley in 1909.

## Career

While he was a graduate student, Shewin was an instructor of agronomy at the University of California. In the fall of 1909, he became an assistant professor of agronomy at the University of Maine. In 1910, he joined the faculty the North Carolina State College of Agriculture & Mechanical Arts (now North Carolina State University) as a professor of soils and the head of its soils department. This was the first professional position in soils at the university.
Sherwin was noted for his investigative work with drainage lines. In November 1936, he was elected president of the North Carolina Drainage Association. He wrote a laboratory guide on soils that was used as a textbook in North Carolina's agricultural high schools. He also helped train county agricultural agents, spoke at the North Carolina Drainage Convention, and presented a paper at the conference of the North Carolina Academy of Science. He also spoke at the Association of Southern Agricultural Workers in February 1921.

# Purkyně (crater)

Purkyně is a lunar impact crater that lies just beyond the eastern limb of the Moon, on the far side from the Earth. When conditions of libration and sunlight allow, this crater can be viewed from the Earth, although it is seen from a very low angle and not much detail can be seen. This crater lies just to the west of the larger crater Wyld, and to the north-northwest of the even bigger Hirayama. To the west and northwest of Purkyně is the Mare Smythii.
This crater has a raised, circular rim that has become worn. The satellite crater Purkyně K intrudes into the southeastern rim. The crater is otherwise only marked by a number of tiny craterlets. The interior floor is relatively level and featureless, with only a pair of tiny craters along the eastern side.

## Satellite craters

By convention these features are identified on lunar maps by placing the letter on the side of the crater midpoint that is closest to Purkyně.

# Pygmy goose

Pygmy geese are a group of very small "perching ducks" in the genus Nettapus which breed in the Old World tropics. They are the smallest of all wildfowl. As the "perching ducks" are a paraphyletic group, they need to be placed elsewhere. The initially assumed relationship with the dabbling duck subfamily Anatinae has been questioned, and it appears they form a lineage in an ancient Gondwanan radiation of waterfowl, within which they are of unclear affinities. An undescribed fossil species from the late Hemphillian (5.0–4.1 mya) of Jalisco, central Mexico, has also been identified from the distal end of a tarsometatarsus. It is only record of the genus in the New World.
The genus Nettapus was erected by the German naturalist Johann Friedrich von Brandt in 1836. The name is from Ancient Greek nētta meaning "duck" and pous meaning "foot". It was thought that the type species, the African pygmy goose (Nettapus auritus), possessed the feet and body of a duck and the neck of a goose.
There are three extant species in the genus:
| Scientific name | Common Name | Distribution |
| Nettapus auritus | African pygmy goose | Sub-Saharan Africa |
| Nettapus coromandelianus | Cotton pygmy goose | northern Australasia and Southeast Asia |
| Nettapus pulchellus | Green pygmy goose | northern Australia and southern New Guinea |
Pygmy geese have short bills, rounded heads and short legs. They nest in tree holes.
