  • Publication number: 20240098685
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, non-transitory computer-readable media, and methods for automatically addressing emergency situations, customizing emergency user interfaces and options, and managing emergency communications. In particular, in one or more embodiments, the disclosed systems detect a transportation irregularity and generate an emergency assistance user interface based on an emergency severity associated with the transportation irregularity. Based on user interactions with the generated emergency assistance user interface, the disclosed systems generate and send an emergency communication to a remote third-party system.

  • Publication number: 20200038299
    Abstract: The present invention relates to two methods for coloring hair. The first method foresees the application of a hair coloring composition to the front hair roots, that of a different composition to the back hair roots and optionally that of a third composition to the rest of the hair. The method generates a coloring effect and a masking effect of the new growth which allows a longer lasting coloring effect. The second method foresees the application of a hair coloring composition to the hair roots and that of a different composition to the remaining hair. Also disclosed are kits for performing each of these methods.

  • Publication number: 20170273883
    Abstract: Described herein is a method for treating and coloring hair including un-pigmented hair. The method includes (a) providing a first composition including one or more heavy metal ion sequestrants; (b) applying the first composition to the hair; (c) providing a second composition including one or more weak acids having a pKa from 2.5 to 5; (d) applying the second composition to the hair; (e) providing a third composition including one or more direct dyes chosen from nitro dye, disperse dye, cationic dye, acid dye, basic dye, neutral azo dye and mixtures thereof, and (f) applying the third composition to the hair. The third composition is able to decrease the reflectance of un-pigmented hair in a wavelength range from 530 nm to 670 nm.

  • Patent number: 9675820
    Abstract: Methods and systems for passively detecting stable cavitation and enhancing stable cavitation during sonothrombolysis are provided. The method of passively detecting stable cavitation includes providing a determined level of ultrasonic energy and detecting a scattered level of ultrasonic energy. The system for inducing and passively detecting stable cavitation includes a dual-element annular transducer array configured to provide a fundamental ultrasonic frequency and to detect an ultrasonic frequency that is a derivative of the fundamental frequency. The method of enhancing stable cavitation includes administering a nucleating agent and a thrombolytic agent to a treatment zone, providing a determined level of ultrasonic energy, and detecting a scattered level of ultrasonic energy.

  • Patent number: 8632611
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for coloring hair wherein a hair coloring composition is applied to the hair roots. The hair coloring composition is then diluted with a dilutant component and the diluted hair coloring composition is applied to the hair lengths and tips.

  • Patent number: 7343348
    Abstract: A system for facilitating electronic transactions among participants to a transaction is afforded that comprises a server having a software application stored thereon, one or more databases associated with the server for storing transactional data and documents relating to the transactions, and one or ignore client computer systems connected with the server for remotely accessing the transactional data and documents pertaining to the transactions and for performing particular tasks relating to the transactions. The software application is logically segmented into particular sites for controlling the functionality of the electronic transactions, and each site has a set of associated templates for managing information about the transactions. The templates control the business rules and functionality of the transactions. Preferably, the templates are grouped according to particular categories, such as transaction types, data forms, transaction data, participants rules, services rules, and documents.

  • Patent number: 5393305
    Abstract: A two part aqueous composition for coloring and providing durable conditioning to human hair which forms a gel on mixing of an alkaline aqueous lotion first part having a pH of from about 7 to about 11 containing from about 0.005% by weight to about 5% by weight of at least one primary intermediate and at least one coupler for the formation of oxidation dyes, from about 0.1% to about 5% of a cationic polymer, from about 0.5% to about 15% by weight of an anionic or amphoteric surfactant or mixture thereof and at least 70% by weight water, and an aqueous developer second part having a pH of from about 2 to about 6 containing from about 0.5% by weight to about 40% by weight of a peroxide oxidizer and from about 0.1% by weight to about 20% by weight of an anionic polymer, the anionic polymer being characterized in that it is insoluble in the developer and dissolves in the gel which forms when the lotion and developer are mixed.
