Computational properties of use to biological organisms or to the construction of computers can emerge as collective properties of systems having a large number of simple equivalent components (or neurons). The physical meaning of content-addressable memory is described by an appropriate phase space flow of the state of a system. A model of such a system is given, based on aspects of neurobiology but readily adapted to integrated circuits. The collective properties of this model produce a content-addressable memory which correctly yields an entire memory from any subpart of sufficient size. The algorithm for the time evolution of the state of the system is based on asynchronous parallel processing. Additional emergent collective properties include some capacity for generalization, familiarity recognition, categorization, error correction, and time sequence retention. The collective properties are only weakly sensitive to details of the modeling or the failure of individual devices.

There's no avoiding love in December—especially when you work at North Pole Unlimited, where Christmas spirit fills the air, and there's an endless supply of mistletoe. Now the first two wholesome romances in this popular holiday series are together in one collection. When Santa dabbles in love, everybody wins. Decker and Joy – Strange things are afoot at Kitten Caboodle. When a prototype goes missing and three kittens disappear from her animal shelter, Joy McCall crosses paths with grumpy P.I. Decker Harkness. They'll need to work together to solve the crimes, save Christmas, and fall in love along the way. Hollis and Ivy - Christmas is a season of surprises. Florist Ivy Teague's business is in trouble, but when cute accountant Hollis Dash arrives without warning and offers her advice when he's supposed to be working with the competition, she isn't sure if he is one of Santa's elves sent to help her, or a Grinch in disguise.
