Abstract: A method of decreasing the sensitivity of the skin without causing irritation is described, using a four component cosmetic regime. The four components comprising the regime are: a cleanser, a toner, a moisturizer, and a cream.

Abstract: A novel cosmetic skin toner formulation is described which is non-irritating and non-stinging.

Abstract: A semi-automatic double action revolver having an axially slidable and rotatable barrel aligned with a lower chamber of a top pivotal swing-out cylinder. The trigger mechanism includes a safety rod to prevent the opening of the cylinder while the hammer is cocked, or not in the rest position, and a transfer bar is provided between the hammer and the firing pin so that the firing pin can only be actuated when the trigger has been pulled all the way back, beyond the double action and single action hammer cock position.

Abstract: A novel cell renewal cosmetic regime is disclosed, which increases epidermal cell turnover without skin irritation. The regime consists of the use of four components: a cleanser, a cream, a lotion, and a tonic.

Abstract: A skin tonic formulation, which is one of four components used in a cosmetic regime, is disclosed. Applying the regime to the skin increases epidermal cell turnover without skin irritation. The other three components used in the regime are a cleanser, a cream, and a lotion.

Abstract: Interfaces are detected in pipeline batching by means of a capacitance cell for determining dielectric constants. The batch fluid may be purified by a centrifugal filter to allow identification of the batch fluid by dielectric constant.

Abstract: A pair of counter-rotating rotors operate in communicating rotor chambers of a common rotor housing. The rotors are pocketed in their peripheries and alternating pockets of each rotor receive vane-piston rollers of the opposing rotor with the vane-piston rollers intermeshing during rotor rotation. The peripheral rotor pockets form secondary relatively high compression combustion chambers having a secondary fuel supply independent of the supply to a primary combustion space between the two rotors and adjacent eccentric wall portions of the rotor chambers. During engine operation, the vane-piston rollers constantly engage the chamber walls due to centrifugal force and are radially guided by central fixed cams. Four cycle piston engine operation is closely simulated and major virtues of rotary and reciprocating piston engine types are retained while major disadvantages of each engine type are eliminated in a hybrid engine.

Abstract: A new and improved hazard signal, turn signal, and brake signal system for an automotive vehicle which is characterized in that each of the foregoing signal indications may be provided independently and/or simultaneously without interfering with one another. In a preferred embodiment the system comprises eight two-filament light sources arranged in groups of two sources at each of the four normal corners of the vehicle. One of the light sources in each of the four units serve as either a hazard light or a turn signal light, depending on the desired mode of operation. An important feature resides in that simultaneous energization of the hazard signals, turn signals, and/or brake signals do not serve to override one another, but may be provided simultaneously as separate indications.

Abstract: A security pin for installation between a door jamb and a door to prevent unauthorized entry through the door, when locked, by removal of the door hinge pins.
