Abstract: The present disclosure relates to stable cosmetic compositions for delivering high amounts of ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and ceramides to the skin, products containing such cosmetic compositions, and methods for treating skin using the cosmetic compositions. The cosmetic compositions include ascorbic acid, one or more ceramides, panthenol, one or more monoalcohols having from 2 to 6 carbon atoms, one or more polyols, one or more fatty compounds, one or more emulsifiers, one or more cationic surfactants, and water. The cosmetic compositions are particularly useful for treating the effects of skin aging, for example, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and improving skin tone.

Abstract: A system for characterizing email communications. Mail is first processed by a Sending Entity Identifier (SEI), to determine which person, company, or type of sender the mail appears to be from, answering the question “What entity would a typical human conclude this email is from”? The output of the SEI will typically be a person (“John Doe”) or a brand (“Amazon”). The SEI passes that information, along with the email itself, to a Sending Entity Verifier (SEV), to verify whether the email really is from the entity the SEI says it's from. A Markup Engine may add a human-readable banner and/or machine-readable headers and then pass the email to a Disposition Engine which may deliver, quarantine, or folder the email (e.g., to a Junk Folder) accordingly.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a translucent water-in-oil emulsion which comprises an aqueous phase comprising a least one neutralized trialkoxysilane derivative as an appearance modifier and an oil phase comprising at least one water-in-oil emulsifier.

Abstract: Methods and systems to present a relatively small combinational set of user-selectable filter and display criteria, through a relatively small number of visually-intuitive controls of an electronic message (EM) graphical user interface (GUI), and to translate a combination of user-selected criteria to a more-complex set of configuration parameters. Methods and systems disclosed herein may be implemented to provide filter and/or display configurations on-par or greater than conventional EM clients, in quantity and/or complexity, with less user-effort, knowledge, and navigational skill.
