Abstract: A method levels hair colour, especially lighter coloured hair or including lightened streaks or bleached streaks or bleached 0as a whole and after certain period of time contrast—difference in colour—between the re-growth and formerly lightened parts is clearly visible. The method comprises at least two parts wherein one part being the part not closer to scalp which is artificially colour changed to a lighter colour by means of lightening and/or colouring and/or bleaching than the other part closer to scalp which is preferably undamaged and has its natural colour, wherein hair is optionally shampooed and optionally towel dried and the part directly at the scalp, preferably undamaged and preferably has its natural colour, is applied a composition resulting from mixing two compositions, A and B, prior to application.

Abstract: A buck regulator for converting an input DC voltage, V+, into an output DC voltage level includes a coupled inductor for outputting the DC voltage level, and an error amplifier for sensing an error in the outputted DC voltage level and a pulse width modulator (PWM) providing a pulse waveform having a duty cycle responsive to the error. Also, included are a V+ voltage driver for outputting the V+ voltage level responsive to the pulse waveform, and a super voltage driver for outputting a super voltage level, Vss, responsive to the pulsed waveform, wherein the super voltage level is higher than the V+ voltage level. The outputted super voltage level is complementary to the outputted V+ voltage level. Also included are dual MOSFETs, which have gates for, respectively, receiving the super voltage level and the V+ voltage level. The dual MOSFETs drive the coupled inductor for outputting the DC voltage level.

Abstract: The protection of data on a client mobile computing device by a server computer system such as within an enterprise network or on a separate mobile computing device is described. Security tools are described that provide different security policies to be enforced based on a location associated with a network environment in which a mobile device is operating. Methods for detecting the location of the mobile device are described. Additionally, the security tools may also provide for enforcing different policies based on security features. Examples of security features include the type of connection, wired or wireless, over which data is being transferred, the operation of anti-virus software, or the type of network adapter card. The different security policies provide enforcement mechanisms that may be tailored based upon the detected location and/or active security features associated with the mobile device. Examples of enforcement mechanisms are adaptive port blocking, file hiding and file encryption.
