Abstract: A multi-endpoint application server is provided that allows administrators to create and update content and data for endpoint applications using content management capabilities that allows the administrators to control how the endpoint application should be presented and how it should behave for various end-point types. A runtime application can be provided to each endpoint, which is configured to obtain content that is managed and maintained from the server in the same way as a normal web browser-based application would. To enable such multiple endpoint types to experience the same or similar endpoint application experience, the multi-endpoint application server accepts requests from the runtime application and determines what kind of endpoint is making the request such that it can present the content to the runtime application in a manner that is deemed appropriate for the endpoint type.

Abstract: A method for providing enhanced service in an IP-based core network having a collapsed wireless system architecture comprises using a modified proxy-call session control function in a broadband wireless router to monitor the IP-based core network and, based on the amount of available resources, either accepting a call or rejecting the call into the network. Additionally, depending on an amount of available resources in the IP-based core network a quality of a call-in-progress or a user application may be adjusted.

Abstract: Disclosed is a composition and method, for various conditions, including body weight control, sexual dysfunction, stomach blotting, heartburn, body pain, and controlling cholesterol, arginine is used as active material. The composition is in the form of lotion/cream applicable to any part of the body and still functional. It does not need to be applied on problematic site.

Abstract: A composition for treating hair includes at least one of the following:a) a cationic polymer made from the reaction of secondary amines and epihalohydrin and further cross-linked with the addition of a small amount of ethylene diamine;b) dimethylaminoethylmethacrylate and one of a precomponent of an active hair relaxing ingredient, guanidine hydroxide or a shampoo base;c) polyquaternium 10 and at least one of an active hair relaxing ingredient and an active hair relaxing ingredient; andd) polyquaternium 32 and mineral oil.A method of using at least one of a cationic polymer, dimethylaminoethylmethacrylate, polyquaternium 10 or polyquaternium 32 includes the steps of applying one of the above to hair that is in risk of damage from a cosmetic procedure and exposing the hair to a cosmetic procedure.

Abstract: This invention relates to a process for relaxing hair fibers that comprises applying to the hair fibers a lanthionizing composition that comprises a hydrogenated starch hydrolysate and/or a sugar. The present invention also provides a lanthionizing composition that comprises hydrogenated starch hydrolysate and/or a sugar which decreases the amount of damage that occurs to hair fibers during the lanthionization process.

Abstract: A method of strengthening hair in need of strengthening includes the steps of applying a hair swelling component to the hair and applying a cationic polymer that is the reaction product of a lower dialkylamine (C.sub.1 -C.sub.3), a difunctional epoxy-type reactant and a third reactant selected from the group consisting of ammonia, primary amines, alkylene diamines having two to six carbon atoms and polyamines to the hair.

Abstract: A hair strengthening relaxing composition comprising a cationic polyquaternary polymer that is the product of a condensation reaction of a lower dialkylamine (C.sub.1 -C.sub.3), a difunctional epoxy compound and a third reactant selected from the group consisting of ammonia, primary amines, alkylene diamines having two to six carbon atoms, and polyamines; and a high-alkalinity hair relaxing agent.

Abstract: A process for relaxing hair in which the hair fibers undergo minimal swelling is provided, using a composition that decreases the swelling of hair fibers. Use of the composition or process decreases hair fiber swelling during the relaxing process, thereby decreasing structural damage to the hair while increasing hair fiber strength.
