The edge of chaos--right before chaos sets in--is a unique place. It is found in many dynamical systems that cross the boundary between a well-behaved dynamics and a chaotic one. Now, physicists have shown that the distribution--or frequency of occurrence--of the variables constituting the physical characteristics of such systems at the edge of chaos has a very different shape than previously reported distributions. The results, by Miguel Angel Fuentes from the Santa Fe Institute in New Mexico, USA, and Universidad del Desarrollo, Chile, and Alberto Robledo from the National Autonomous University of Mexico, Mexico City, are published in EPJ B. This could help us better understand natural phenomena with a chaotic nature.
In probability theory, the central limit theorem was first developed by an 18th century French mathematician named Abraham de Moivre. It applies to independent random physical quantities or variables, each with a well-defined expected value and well-defined way of varying. This theorem states that once iterated a sufficiently large number of times, these variable physical quantities will be approximately distributed along a central limit--also referred to as the attractor. In chaotic and standard random systems, such distribution is in the shape of a bell curve.
Now, new central limit theorems are emerging for more complex physical processes, such as natural phenomena. In this study, the authors took existing knowledge of the specific position of the attractor at the edge of chaos. To do so, they employed a mathematical formula called the logistic map as a particular example of the dynamic system under study. They found that the distribution of physical properties of such dynamic systems at this specific point at the edge of chaos has a fractal structure not previously known.

|What Is the Fate of Doll and Toy Publications?
|Written by Carie Ferg
|Wednesday, 04 August 2010 22:30
Few people would argue that the doll industry is a shadow of its former self—that its heyday of the '80s and '90s is long past. As a relative newcomer to the doll industry, I wasn't around in those days. But have I heard stories. So many long-time doll industry people remember packed-out shows with collectors rushing to get through the doors to buy up dolls. And they remember doll magazines being as thick as Cosmopolitan, and the high demand for collectible dolls driving up doll prices.
But the industry has changed since then. Dolls have ceased to be viewed by the masses as a way to invest money and make a quick buck, so mostly the market that remains are people who truly love dolls. From what I'm told and what I've learned in the last few years, that pool is pretty small.

Back in the good old days of collecting--when both the power of the pocketbook and the spark of creativity seemed limitless, I was lucky enough to be editing DOLLS magazine. I did the first-ever article on dolls and the Internet in the magazine (in 1996) and started a monthly listing of retailers and artists who had a cyber presence (called it Caught in the Web). Back then, we were trying to shepherd people onto the Web and have them see that as a bonus/supplement to the printed word. With that in mind, 14 years later, it seems natural that the scales have shifted, and the Web has become the main focus. Fourteen years is a long time for a shift to occur. And it's not just with hobby magazines: it's all printed format (daily newspapers, fashion magazines, home decor monthlies). These are all folding. However, don't think of the magazines as being curtailed. In many instances, they are now bigger, better, and more interactive in their cyber versions. To keep the print magazines alive, perhaps some bonuses or some paper-only incentives need to be included in every issue. It will give subscribers and readers a reason to continue to buy and will keep the hard-copy magazines alive.
It is really sad to see that. As a fashion doll collector, I've been buying every HauteDoll issue, but I didn't have a single thought of its potential end...
I'm afraid that everything's moving in an online direction indeed. I think that I can speak on behalf of most Russian doll collectors -
we here used to buy American doll magazines and consider them to be the best doll authorities, plus we used to see them as a sign of a stable offine doll market. The end of such famous projects is really a pain. As for the offline magazines, I hope they will still be - it's a special feeling to get your hands on the latest issue.
I think some Doll magazines will definately always be there. As an artist, I have seen the market change through the years. Dolls, however have always been considered a valuable collectible, and there will always be collectors for them and collectors interested in industry magazines.
It is sad to see some of these magazines of which I have been a fan, subscriber, and contributer fold up. I think it is a sign of our economic times and financial outlook on the future. In the past couple of years, peoples extra income has gone down. This year I have noticed a resurgence and new interest in collecting. I think this is all just fluctuations as America bounds back from our economic depression. Magazines which encompass all aspects of dolls and doll collecting will always be around, whereas those that are more tailored to a particular genre of doll collecting will not be able to compete with changing tastes and interests.
I have been a retailer for 22 years and seen many changes during this time. I am sad to see the need for doll companies to sell directly, thus forcing retailers to close their shops because they are unable to compete with the doll companies. While I understand their need to do so,I feel this will ultimately be the demise of dolls. We are becoming too electronic and losing our connection with people. Doll shops help to keep that connection alive. There are so many people out there who are not internet saavy and do not even have a computer. True, we try to reach some of these people with doll shows but the constant spark of day to day communication through doll shops is missing. Thus, I feel doll magazines as printed material will cease to exist. I will miss them.

I have never used this but do use one like it called Lift Wand from Amazon..Its 80.00 and it is 20 watts verses 1.5 which is what Dermawand is i was told..I really like the Liftwand because it has more power to do the job faster and better i would think..My skin texture is looking better more plump after a few uses and cant wait to see what it does long term.Pores are smaller also.I wrote this review because a gal below said she wished there was a Dermawand that was stronger...Well there is on Amazon!..I bought mine from Exquisite Goods and heard they are the only authorized seller on Amazon for this device.
I have a lot to say about this device, so bare with me.
I have been using the Dermawand for about two months now. I bought it with scepticism from the 'As Seen on TV" store. I purchased an extended warranty with it just in case I didn't like it.
The packaging and the device itself is really out dated. It looks more like a sex toy then a beauty device. It does not feel sturdy or high tech. They really lose points for their lack lustre marketing structure as well.
I use the Dermawand morning and night for about two to three min. I make sure my face is clean and I use a facial oil to help it slide over the skin. I am currently using Demascus Rose Facial Oil, and I love it! I have also used Argon oil and plain old olive oil, both with great results.
I have noticed that my pores are slightly smaller. My blackheads are much smaller. I get hormonal acne and the Dermawand helps clear it faster. The blemishes almost always disappear before they have a chance to form a head. I notice a slight lifting effect, that is temporary. It will help you look more awake. The slight dermatitis that I have always had on my cheeks, that covers up easily with a little make up, is almost non existent. I don't have many wrinkles so I can't speak to its wrinkle fighting properties, but for all the other above reasons I think this is a great beauty tool.
Some words of caution:
I did take this on holidays with me to Australia and tried to use it with my power adaptor. I nearly tazzered myself on the lowest setting! So be cautious if you have a higher voltage of electricity in your area.
I tried using this over a high quality moisturizer with an SPF in it. I broke out the next day. So my guess is that it really penetrates the product into your skin. SPF is meant to sit on top of the skin. So don't use it with SPF.
I also tried it over make up with the same result. So it is really best to use this on clean skin with 'clean' products, unlike what is shown on the infomercial.
I find it is not as effective if you do not exfoliate regularly. I guess it can't penetrate layers of dead skin. So for optimal benefits, do exfoliate!
It does take a little time to work up to the highest setting. It took me just under two weeks to work up to level 9.
It also takes time to dedicate to the process, a few minutes each time. I don't mind this. Some might be bothered by that. But it is the same as exercise. You have to keep at it to see results and be consistent.
It does produce a smell. I don't mind the smell. But if you are sensitive you might not like it.
My device only came with one product. It is a gel that you are supposed to use with the wand. I used it once and kept having to apply it to keep using the wand because it kept drying out. That is when I tried using a facial oil and that worked much better for me. Now I only use it with a facial oil to cut down on time and fussing.
The price for this does not bother me because I am seeing benefits that I don't always see with pricey creams and serums. To me this is a money saver. Im using a $12 oil and have almost stopped with all other products. I could spend $150 easily in one trip to the cosmetic counter and be dissatisfied with half of it. So this is money well spent for me.
Over all I have seen improvement in the condition of my skin as a result of using the Dermawand. I was embarrassed to tell anyone that I bought it. My husband still doesn't know! A few people have commented on my glowing skin so I have started telling my friends about it.

Hi there,
Please do not laugh. I have one of the very first Dermawands and have been using it for the past 15 years. Loved it then and still love it. The recent infomercials had me take it back out after a few years of not using it. Why I stopped I guess life just took over and got too busy. I am 52 this year and the past 10 weeks of using the dermawand has made me feel foolish. I have seen such wonderful changes. Then yesterday it finally stopped working not because of having a damaged glass but my own fault The cord became loose, I guess I did not take good care when repacking it. Silly me a person should be more careful with something they love and works so well for so long.
I called about having it repaired and as expected the young man who picked up my call laughed. I was not looking for warranty LOL." They may not even have parts for a black handle style LOL" was his reply Just looking to see if I could send it for repair or ask if I should just purchase a new one.... A new one of course. So next on my list is add a dermawand to my wish list.
Great Product Trusted results a women's best friend. I am living proof. and 15 years of usage speaks for itself.
Thank you so much to Dermawand for all the years of faithful true results
Thank You again

I have read every site with reviews for the derma wand and would say appx 80% positive..however doesn't mean I believed them. But for 120 bucks which included shipping I thought what the heck...if it doesn't work it might at least make my skin abit brighter. I am someone who has done plastic surgery, fillers and botox. Well I plugged the derma wand in with no expectations and wow was I wrong.! The lines on my upper chest just about diminished and fine smokers lines on mouth darn near unnoticeable. while I won't say they are gone I will say it sure works in plumbing them up so they appear gone. I really truly didn't think this product would do anything but boy I was wrong. they say to use this daily which I will do and see how it continues to work but so far I am impressed. Great product to use even for those special events where u want to look good. highly recommend it.
I purchased my dermawand in November 2012. At least 5 times a week, 15 minutes daily I faithfully use it. I am a retired Chemistry teacher, and have made many observations about the product, its quality and capabilities.
First of all, 3 minutes twice daily does nothing. You might as well not even bother if you follow the directions given.
The product samples were very nice for treating my hands. For my face, they were a waste. The glass-tipped sensor always got all icked up, and had to be cleaned after regular use with alcohol to get rid of the sludge which hinders its effectiveness. NOWHERE does it state that this must be done.
I wash my face, and use a toner to clean off any residue. The skin is damp, and the dermawand works just fine.
The dermawand has reduced the very fine lines around my lips, and plumped them. It has reduced the redness leftover from my multiple laser surgeries for a port wine stain birthmark which I had done back in the 1990s. It has faded the scar that resulted when my son accidentally bumped the scab off postprocedure.
I have eliminated all but three skin tags from one side of my neck. Two on the other side are barely visible. The faint lines between my brows are faded, and I have no crows feet or facial lining.
I wish there was a model with twice the power. I have a residual scar and loose skin from the swelling of my neck due to an inflamed thyroid which was removed in 2011. The scar is faintly visible, but if the unit was more powerful it would have more successfully and completely eliminated the puckers in my neck and stretched skin from where my thyroid damaged it.
The only thing the unit cannot do for me is to stimulate collagen growth under my eyes, where there are hollows that began to appear after my thyroid surgery and worsened after I was diagnosed with cancer in June 2012. The darkness was eliminated, but I still have the hollows there.
If the manufacturers would design a higher powered unit, I would be delighted to have one. It is of my opinion that if I was not putting in the time every night after I shower, and just dinked around with this 6 minutes a day, it would do nothing. Significant change in the skin can only be accomplished at least by doubling or tripling its intensity.
As for products, I alternate between the Peter Thomas Roth line, and whatever I have on the dressing table--Roc, Booth (from Target), Loreal. I use the product AFTER I work with the dermawand.
I think there would be many more happier customers if this unit was more of a medical device and less of a massager.
If the makers decide to upgrade this product I for one would be delighted to participate in a study, or to buy another one. It is good, but there is a lot of room for improvement. I did not buy mine through their site--I paid about $60 for mine on Amazon, and for that price I most certainly got my money's worth. Hope this helps.

This has forsure made a big difference! I still get pimples but this really makes them go away much much faster. I never get that hideous cystic style acne or red marks forever. Make sure to keep this away from eyelids as several times I have woken up with massive puffy eyes from this.
This is very expensive but all in all I would forsure buy again
I have been using my Dermawand for a month now. I like it! I didn't expect miracles or expect lines to magically disappear, but what I did notice is that the texture of my skin has improved dramatically. My skin appears more dewy, I look more rested and bags under my eyes are much less noticeable. I use it twice a day with my own skin products (Shiseido-Benefiance line). What I did not like about the company is that they signed me up to receive their creams, etc. once a month. I did not ask for that. I was just informed that my first shipment of cream is on its way, so I will have to return it (my postage). I have cancelled the automated monthly shipment and hopefully will not see this happen again.

I am 53 years of age have fair skin and blue eyes and have been using the Dermawand for 7 weeks. To be perfectly honest I cannot see how you can burn your face with this product. I am more than happy with the results that I have noticed since I have started using the Dermawand. What I think people should remember is that it is not a magic wand and many of the lines on your face have been there for a number of years so I would not expect them to disappear within a few days or even weeks of using the product. What I have noticed is that my skin looks more radiant, feels more dewy and very smooth. I have also noticed a reduction in the very fine lines on my face. I have read a lot of reviews on this product and some that I have read seem incredibly dramatic to say the least. I use the Dermawand on number 9 for everywhere except my eyes. I have noticed my eyes seem more uplifted and with no puffiness or bagging under the eye. I use my usual day cream (Loreal Revitalift Laser x 3 - inexpensive) and spend approx 10 mins each morning doing all the bits on my face. My skin is not overly sensitive but certainly not as robust as some skin types. To date I have had no bad results only positive results. Just remember it took a long time to gather the lines and it will take consistent work to diminish them. Hope this helps.

I got Derma wand for Christmas and I used it three times now. The last time I used it was on Christmas Eve, I was too busy to use it again after that. On New Years Eve I came down with Shingles! On my face! The stinging pain from the Shingles feels a lot like the shocking feeling from the Derma wand. I can't help but worry that I brought on the Shingles by using this thing. I am not done with my 30 day warranty but reading about shingles, you can have lasting stinging sensations for about 3 months after having shingles. I don't think I want to keep this product, I'm a bit freaked out by it now. If anyone else has had this kind of reaction, please don't be shy and let us all know.
First a little bit about myself...I am just turning 52 this year, and have very fair, somewhat sun-damaged skin. I am prone to crows feet and have nasal labial folds forming...a few laugh lines...and probably, my skin is somewhat worse looking for it's age than my friends' skin - though I don't use Botox or fillers and I'm pretty sure nearly all of my girlfriends do. Anyway, I have used this product for 60 days. I use it morning and night, after washing my face and using Reviva Labs Alpha Lipoic Acid, Vitamin C Ester and DMAE cream. Have I noticed a reduction in wrinkles? No, not really. HOWEVER, I do like the fact that using this morning and night forces me to massage my face and make sure the cream gets nicely rubbed in. I also have found that my skin is very even - no acne whatsoever (not that I get much more than the occasional pimple) and it really takes care of those! Blackheads gone! My complexion does look fabulous. I also know that I tend to wear my stress in my forehead, and this product really does smooth that out! I noticed after a few weeks of using it that it was hard to even frown! I think it just relaxes my face and it's calming my frown muscles...I do like that about it. I use it every morning and night for about 5 min. on the highest setting - and it doesn't hurt at all. I use it on my lips (right on them - tingles but not in a bad way), face, neck and tops of hand. Even if it doesn't erase all the damage of time, it does invigorate my face and my complexion looks bright and healthy. If you find that your facial skin has lost some of it's youthful glow, and you want to make sure you are providing daily massage (which can't hurt) and a way to encourage your moisturizer to get down into your skin, then I do recommend this product. I bought mine directly, and they even let me have an extra 30 days (2 months) of free trial - all I had to do was ask. They do stand behind the product - even though I don't think the products in the skin care line are of any value. I mean, where else can you try out a product for 2 months for free? It's a great facial massage tool, and will make you feel youthful just because it wakes up your facial skin! Also, if it can help my neck out at all, then I'm willing to commit! It works great with the aforementioned Reviva Labs cream (also not expensive) because that is supposed to help with tone and lifting too! Good luck with this...for me, I'm keeping it because it does no harm and I like the way it wakes up my face, adds a glow and my skin quite honestly is nicer overall than when I started using it - no less wrinkles, but certainly no additional ones, and since my skin is looking so nice, who cares about a few signs of age... I say yes.

5 Hated Stocks Poised to Pop on Bullish Earnings
Finish Line
My first earnings short-squeeze play is specialty retail player Finish Line (FINL), which is set to report results on Thursday before the market open. This company operates as a mall-based specialty retailer in the U.S. It operates Finish Line stores that offer performance and athletic casual footwear, apparel and accessories for men, women and kids. Wall Street analysts, on average, expect Finish Line to report revenue of $320.73 million on earnings of 23 cents per share.
This company has met or exceeded Wall Street earnings per share estimates over the last four quarters. The current short interest as a percentage of the float for Finish Line is rather high at 10.2%. That means that out of the 50.50 million shares in the tradable float, 5.14 million shares are sold short by the bears. This is a decent short interest on a stock with a relatively low float. If Finish Line can deliver what the bulls are looking for, then this stock could see a large short-squeeze post-earnings.>>5 Rocket Stocks Worth Buying This Week From a technical perspective, FINL is currently trading below both its 50-day and 200-day moving averages, which is bearish. This stock has been downtrending hard since late March, with shares dropping from a high of over $26.09 to a recent low of $17.87 a share. During that sharp move lower, shares of FINL have consistently made lower highs and lower lows, which is bearish technical price action. In fact, this stock is trading so poorly it's only trading about 2 points off its 52-week low of $16.42 a share as we approach their earnings report. If you're bullish on FINL, then I would wait until after it reports earnings and look for long-biased trades if this stock can manage to trigger a breakout above some near-term overhead resistance at $19.00 to $19.62 a share with high-volume. Look for volume on that move that registers near or above its three-month average action of 1.2 million shares. If we get that move, then FINL has a great chance of re-testing its May high of $22.76 a share post-earnings. I would simply avoid FINL or look for short-biased trades if after earnings it fails to trigger that breakout, and then drops below some major past support at $17.66 to $16.25 a share with high-volume. If we get that move, then FINL will be trading at a new 52-week low and it could easily hit $15 a share or lower.

- Product Q&A
The aromatic properties of Lavender Flowers make it quite useful in as an extra in lotions and creams. They are used extensively in perfumes, soaps and sachets. Lavender water, made from the essential oil, is recommended in therapeutic baths for its relaxant properties. This calming oil can have a sedative action. A small amount of Lavender Flowers, Lavandula angustifolia, added to ordinary oils makes a useful application.
What's the difference between the Extra, Select, and Super grades?All grades of our French lavender possess a very fragrant aroma and flavor, making them all perfectly suitable for culinary and therapeutic use, including crafts, potpourri, and body care products like soap, oils, lotions, and shampoos. The differences between the three grades are based on a slight variation of color and aroma.
Extra grade lavender has a slightly bitter, floral, grassy flavor. The flowers have a little more green or blue grey color compared Select and Super, and also contains slightly more stems and leaves. This makes it a cost-effective alternative in culinary preparations and crafts that do not rely on visual presentation. Perfect for use in sachets, tinted containers, and especially in our Starwest Organic Lavender Dryer Bags!
Select grade is very similar in flavor to the Extra with a floral and grassy taste, but slightly less bitter. It possesses a subtle fresh, sweeter flavor that works well as a culinary ingredient and in loose teas and tea bags. It has a medium deepness of lavender color, less stems and leaves. The deeper color also means Select lavender will look nice in clear and open containers of potpourri and other herbal blends.
Super grade lavender is distinct from Extra and Select in that it has a sweeter, citrus-like taste which is imparted to food when used during cooking. Super has a rich and vibrant lavender color and contains the least amount of stems and leaves. It is brighter, subtly peppery, and reminiscent of rosemary. With the abundance of flowers and buds, Super grade lavender is perfect for loose teas (especially if you intend to make a tea with only lavender, and it not as a blend) and in any application that calls for open or clear containers, such as potpourri, where the colors are sure to be prominent.

Riding the Tube
No sir, I do not ride the T, nor do I ride the metro these days. The subway you say? No, you would be wrong, these days it's either the underground or the Tube.
It was fun to run into Nigel, an aspiring designer, on Saturday as we took the tube to Borough market to do our groceries. I've posted some of the photos from that trip on Instagram.

Part of our No Car Needed series on The Scoop. These are towns to keep in mind for a weekend getaway easily reached by train.
Is this one of Catalonia's best kept secrets? I'm I spoiling it all by telling you, dear Scoop readers, about it? Maybe, but I think you should know! I heard about La Garriga through a friend, and local, who grew up in Barcelona and summers in the lush mountains that surround La Garriga. The village's main draw is its spring water which has been used since Roman times to cure that which ails you. Currently there are two spas in the center of town offering soaks in this magical liquid as well as massage and other treatments.
We stayed at Balneario Blancafort (my mother and I) because they had a special offer available for a double room over the weekend. Do check the website because there are deals to be had throughout the year, especially in low-season. For about $160 we got an enormous double room, a lavish breakfast, a couple glasses of cava and entrance into the water works pool area. It was worth every penny and I believe this offer is on until the end of March so have at it!
The hotel also had an outdoor pool and heated Jacuzzi pool plus three restaurants and a bar. It's a nice place, in the center of town, and easily reached from the train. Apart from some billing issues with the receptionist at the end of our stay, the whole experience was a Scoopometer 9. Yes, it was that good!
And there's more. The main drag through town, c/ dels Banys, is hopping with shops selling artisan cheeses, fish, wine, fruit and wonderful cakes. Along the same street and off it on the village's small plazas are bars and cafes where residents sip beers and kids play soccer. Every Saturday there's a food and goods market on Pl. de les Oliveres in the center of town worth seeing from 8am to 2pm.
A couple streets up from c/ dels Banys is El Passeig which is a sort of Rambla for strolling. Along this 12-block strip magnificent Modernista homes were built in the early 1900s. Walk this Passeig to the end admiring the homes, most of which have little plaques stating their construction date and the architect responsible. At the end of El Passeig you'll come to Restes Arqueologiques Romanes, or the Roman Ruins, which are a pile of stones but interesting nonetheless.
From Barcelona to La Garriga it takes just 40 minutes and there are one or two trains an hour leaving from Pl Catalunya. This is why it's so shocking for me that more people haven't heard of La Garriga or visited it, in that it's really easy to get to! A train ticket from Barcelona to La Garriga costs about $5.00.

San Diego Company Ace Parking Partners with Several Nationally Recognized Hotels
The Omni San Diego Hotel was named among the top 25 hotels in Southern California as ranked by the famed travel publication. Ace Parking partners with the Omni by providing valet service for the hotel.
The Omni was not the only partner of Ace Parking to receive accolade from Conde Nast, as two other hotels that Ace Parking services also made it onto best hotels lists for their particular regions in the United States. The St. Regis Hotel Houston was named among the top 15 hotels in Texas, and the Fairmont Olympic Hotel, Seattle was named as part of the top 20 hotels in the Pacific Northwest. Ace Parking provides valet services for each of these hotels.
"We are very proud that our partners in business have earned this outstanding recognition," said a representative of Ace Parking. "From our partnership with these hotels, we have been able to see firsthand the amount of effort that these wonderful hotels put forth in the name of customer service. We respect that greatly, as we constantly strive to live up to these same standards of outstanding customer service."
In order to compile the lists, Conde Nast surveyed over 80,000 people to determine the best hotels in the United States. Once the results were announced, Ace Parking was far from surprised.
"These hotels that have earned this recognition have done so because they are attentive to the needs of their guests," said the representative. "We have seen them go above and beyond for their guests time and time again. Any time you can combine the outstanding customer service they provide with an excellent location and facilities, that is a recipe for success."
Ace Parking has also made a bit of their own news recently, announcing that they have begun operation of a tram system in San Diego's Balboa Park. The representative downplayed this announcement in order to keep focus on the recognition the hotels have received, saying, "We are very pleased that the tram is up and running, but we are even more pleased to learn of the successes of our partner hotels."

"My 4 year old son and I made these today and they were great! It called for more ingredients than I wanted to work with, but it was well worth it! I didn't have frozen strawberries so I used the fresh I had on hand."
"These were excellent! So easy to throw together before leaving the house this morning. Husband and kids loved 'em! The question today was "to mash, or not to mash?" I left them unmashed pairing them with our quick and easy spinach chicken enchiladas, but will mash them for our tostado night next week. Thanks for sharing!"

|A universal coefficient decomposition for subgroups induced by submodules of group algebras
Dimension subgroups and Lie dimension subgroups are known to satisfy a `universal coefficient decomposition', {\it i.e.} their value with respect to an arbitrary coefficient ring can be described in terms of their values with respect to the `universal' coefficient rings given by the cyclic groups of infinite and prime power order. Here this fact is generalized to much more general types of induced subgroups, notably covering Fox subgroups and relative dimension subgroups with respect to group algebra filtrations induced by arbitrary $N$-series, as well as certain common generalisations of these which occur in the study of the former. This result relies on an extension of the principal universal coefficient decomposition theorem on polynomial ideals (due to Passi, Parmenter and Seghal), to all additive subgroups of group rings. This is possible by using homological instead of ring theoretical methods.

Indoor pool slated for fall reopening, new owners say
By DOUG CARDER, Herald Senior Writer | 7/2/2013
The pool now is filled. The heaters are working.
And the owners of the indoor pool facility on East Wilson Street in Ottawa said they hope to roll out the welcome mat during the Labor Day weekend.
The pool now is filled. The heaters are working.
And the owners of the indoor pool facility on East Wilson Street in Ottawa said they hope to roll out the welcome mat during the Labor Day weekend.
"We would like to time the opening to coincide with the public outdoor pool closing, so it would be a natural transition of pool activities from outside to inside," Rick Deitz, co-owner of the former Swim for Life indoor pool at 913 E. Wilson St., said. "The pool hasn't been open for [more than] three years, so we want to get all our ducks in a row this summer and have a grand opening in early September, possibly Labor Day weekend."
Deitz, a rural Ottawa resident, and Alan Wright, a Baldwin City businessman, purchased the indoor pool facility in June 2012 from the Ebeck family for an undisclosed sum, they said. The green and tan building, accented with weather vanes on top, looks like a large barn from the road. But inside, the owners are completing the final touches for the aquatic center as they await a conditional-use permit from the City of Ottawa to begin operation, the two men said.
"The pool itself is functional right now," Deitz said. "We are still doing some painting, and we need to put in humidifiers and exhaust fans and get pool covers, but it's nearly ready to go."
Ottawa city commissioners were expected to approve a conditional-use permit for the pool at their meeting this morning at City Hall, 101 S. Hickory St., Ottawa. The Ottawa Planning Commission recommended on a 4-0 vote that city commissioners approve the permit.
No one spoke against the indoor pool facility during a recent public hearing, Wynndee Lee, the city's director of planning and codes administration, told city commissioners Monday at their study session.
"A property owner to the east of the building spoke in favor [of the indoor pool reopening]," Lee said.
One condition to receiving the permit, Lee said, was that a vegetation screen or fence be installed on the west side of the parking lot, Lee said.
Wright, who was at the study session Monday, told commissioners that putting in the fence or vegetation screen would not be a problem.
After the meeting, Wright said he was encouraged that none of the commissioners seemed to have any reservations about the indoor pool resuming operations.
If approved by the commission, the pool would reopen after sitting idle for nearly four years.
Telling The Herald the pool was no longer feasible, Joe Ebeck closed the facility in 2009. Ebeck said his father, Hal Ebeck, purchased the pool during a public auction in February 2008, and it reopened later that year.
The building has been used sporadically since it was built by Mark and Carolyn Retzer in 2003 and closed three years later. The 25-foot-by-75-foot pool has been used for lap swimming, aquatic aerobics, physical therapy, swimming lessons and private memberships for individuals and families.
Deitz and Wright plan to reintroduce lap swimming, aquatic aerobics, physical therapy, swimming lessons, swim team practices and other such activities as private birthday parties, the two men said this week.
"The pool will not be open unless there is a person with CPR and lifeguard training present," Deitz said. "Water aerobics instructors are certified, so we plan to move forward with some water aerobics classes once we have city approval. We're also in the beginning stages of contacting the hospital and some doctors' offices to see if they would be interested in using the facility for rehabilitation therapy."
The owners also plan to make the facility available to the community swim team for practices, they said.
Once the pool is open to the general public in September, Deitz said, the owners plan to introduce lap swimming and talk with the Ottawa school district about making the pool available for swim lessons for students.
"We also want to make the facility available to Ottawa University, and to the Ottawa Recreation Commission — if they wanted to hold a scuba class, for example," Deitz said.
The owners plan to sell monthly memberships that will make the pool accessible to members for lap swim and other activities, though those details are still being worked out, Deitz said.
"Once we start lap swim, the pool will have a regular lifeguard on duty, but we don't plan to have staff at the pool initially until after we open it up in September," Deitz said. "Any group or class that uses the pool between now and then will have to have a certified lifeguard present, which typically would be the swim coach or the aerobics instructor."
The yet-to-be-named aquatic center will be open seven days a week and set regular times for lap swims, aerobic classes and other activities, Deitz said.
"We think this pool could be a tremendous community asset," Deitz said. "We're looking forward to getting it open."

Ind. man indicted on federal child sex charges reportedly took girls across state lines for sex
Marvin Geraci, 67, faces life in prison
INDIANAPOLIS - An Indiana man is facing federal charges for reportedly taking two girls over state lines to engage in sexual activity.
U.S. Attorney Joe Hogsett announced the indictment of Marvin Geraci, 67, of New Castle, Tuesday.
According to an Oct. 2012 criminal complaint, Geraci molested two girls -- now ages 12 and 13 -- multiple times during the past two years.
Geraci is accused of taking the girls on "vacations" to New Orleans and Daytona Beach.
A guilty verdict would carry a maximum penalty of life in prison, said Assistant U.S. Attorney Brant Cook.

Merrell Watkins "Curley" Boyd, Lake Stevens, 2007
A memorial service was held at Ebenezer Lutheran Church on Saturday, December 3, for Merrell Watkins "Curly" Boyd, long-time resident of Lake Stevens. Curley passed away November 27, 2011, at the age of 92. Because Boyd was a military veteran, a special flag-lowering service is scheduled for Saturday, December 10, 10 a.m. at the War Memorial in downtown Lake Stevens.
He and his wife Alice Thompson raised their family on land homesteaded by Alice's parents near 123rd Avenue. Arriving in 1950 just weeks after their twin daughters Karen and Sharon were born, they lived on the 10-acre farm raising chickens, cows, pigs, turkeys, chinchillas, horses, sheep, fruit trees, and vegetable gardens.
A few years later two more daughters, Shelly and then Kristi, were born.
Boyd owned Everett Sound Body Shop and later he and his brother, Neil, owned Boyd Brother's Auto Body in Snohomish until retiring in July, 1979.
Alice passed away in 1992.
Four years later Boyd married long-time friend and neighbor Alice Charlotte Bakeng Neys in Lake Stevens.
Boyd grew up on farms in Iowa with his parents and two brothers, graduating from High School at the age of 16. He enlisted into the U.S. Army serving in WWII. He spent a total of 42 months in the military, with 32 of those months overseas. He was a part of the North Africa, Mediterranean and the European Theaters of Operations from 1942-1945.
He spent 17 months overseas in Oran, Algeria, repairing tanks for General Patton. He was also in Corsica for two months training the French to waterproof their vehicles for the invasion of Elba. Curley also spent time in Marseille, Nancy, and Charmes, France, and also in Italy. He participated in the Battles of Rhineland, Rome Arno, and Tunisia.
Curley was a member of American Legion Post 181.

Is Blackman's Lake dock safe?
SNOHOMISH - On a recent Saturday morning a Snohomish resident helped rescue an elderly man who had fallen off a dock and into Blackman's Lake.
The Snohomish resident who didn't want his name published said the dock's lack of railings and unsafe design is what caused the "near drowning," in his opinion. The incident happened May 4 at about 11 a.m.
"If there wouldn't have been anybody there, there's no way he could've made it," the resident said. The resident said the man who fell in said he was 92.
City Manager Larry Bauman had not yet heard about the incident when contacted by the Tribune and said he didn't know of any similar accidents at that dock, located at the lake's Avenue A boat launch.
The resident said the dock platform is too high from the water and the elderly man couldn't pull himself up onto the dock. A fisherman who was fishing on the dock that day couldn't pull him up either. So the resident grabbed a rope from his vehicle and the fisherman towed the fallen man toward the shoreline until he could touch the bottom.
"He was a gruff old man, and he said 'I'm fine, you guys can leave me alone now'," the resident said. "About four or five minutes later, he got into a car and left. He seemed just fine."
The resident said the man didn't want an ambulance to come and check out his health.
Snohomish resident Bob Heirman has been vocal about his concerns with this dock. Bauman is aware of Heirman's complaints, but Bauman remains supportive of the dock's safety.
"This is a standard dock design," Bauman said. "These types of docks without railings are used all over the world. It creates easier access for boaters and that's one of the principal uses of the dock."
The dock's design was supplied by the city's parks department and the Department of Fish and Wildlife.
The resident who helped rescue the elderly man says the design is dangerous for older people and for small children.
"It's way too far out of the water and there's no railing on it," he said. "It's about eight inches out of the water and when you fall off, you or I could probably pull ourselves up, but there's no way this old man could have."
"It's a real poor excuse for a lake dock," he said.
The resident said he likes to take his family out on Blackman's Lake and uses his boat to fish and enjoy the water. His two young granddaughters enjoy walking out onto the dock on the east side of the lake at Hill Park, which has railings, and peering through the slats to watch fish swim by.
But if that dock were to be replaced with a similar no-rail design, he said he would think twice before bringing his family out on the lake.
"If they were to replace that dock with the same design as the one with the near drowning, what are we going to do," he said. "There's no way my two little granddaughters will walk out on that dock."
The city doesn't currently have plans to replace the Hill Park dock with a no-rail design.

Each year, the Dance Department offers a pre-semester program in August for any registered Goucher students interested in dance at Goucher College. The early arrival program provides a venue for all students with prior dance experience to train intensively with Goucher faculty and guest artists before the start of the academic year. The program provides a wonderful opportunity for new students to meet current students and department professors, to settle into their residence hall, and to get adjusted to the college campus without the demands of a full academic schedule. The program consists of classes in ballet, pointe, modern, and jazz techniques, as well as workshops and lectures in various topics. Additionally, we have our first Guest Artist Residency of the year during early arrival. Students have the opportunity to take class with the artist in residence as well as audition for the artist's choreographic work that will be performed at the Goucher Repertory Dance Ensemble Concert in November.

No DNA database match for skull found in crab potApril 3, 2014 @ 11:53 am
WESTPORT, Wash. (AP) -- Authorities say a human skull found in a crab pot off the Washington coast belongs to a female, but it doesn't match anyone in a national DNA database.
The Grays Harbor County Sheriff's Office says the skull found off Westport was sent to the FBI crime lab in Quantico, Va., and run through the Combined DNA Index System. No matches were found.
KXRO-AM reports (http://bit.ly/1hFeWgp) the DNA profile did indicate the skull is from a female, and her age is unknown.
The Sheriff's Office says the results show the skull does not belong to Lindsey Baum, a 10-year-old girl who disappeared in June 2009. She was last seen leaving a friend's house in McCleary, about 50 miles from Westport.
A fisherman found the skull Feb. 21 in a crab pot about 2 miles off Westport in water about 100 feet deep.

Old Soviet cold war nuke bunker makes a nifty data center
Security means everything when it comes to building a place where people will feel confident depositing their precious data, and few places are as securely built as an underground ex-Soviet nuclear bunker.
The bunker was built to protect its occupants from a US nuclear attack, so it's a pretty safe bet to assume that a potential data hacker isn't going to be able to simply walk in and take stuff. Unfortunately, other than what's in the pictures, there isn't much additional information.
This isn't the first cold war era bunker we've seen that's been repurposed for peaceful uses.
