Abstract: Sitting and kneeling chair allowing quick and frequent transition between two core configurations, between at least sitting and kneeling positions with adjustability, without leaving the chair. Knee pads have inverting knee assembly with front and rear ends, that uses a knee pad pivot, follower, and knee linkage coupling with and upper portion of a frame below the seat assembly for travel between the upper portion of the frame and the lower portion of the frame above a base where each knee pad may be deployed from and between deployed and inverted orientations.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to compositions for treating hair and methods of using the compositions. The compositions comprise (a) citric acid and/or a salt thereof, and (b) glycine and/or a salt thereof. The compositions and methods may be for altering the color of the hair, and/or for providing strength and/or elasticity to the hair.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to compositions for altering the color of keratin fibers and methods of using the compositions. The compositions comprise (a) a bonding system comprising (i) at least one first bonding agent chosen from alpha-hydroxy acids comprising at least three hydrogen donor carboxyl groups and/or salts thereof; (ii) at least one second bonding agent chosen from glycine and/or salts thereof; and (iii) optionally, at least one third bonding agent chosen from amino sulfonic acids and/or salts thereof; (b) at least one fatty alcohol; (c) at least one fatty acid; (d) at least one alkyl polyglucoside; (e) at least one alkalizing agent; and (f) at least one solvent. The compositions can further comprise one or more oxidation dyes, couplers, oxidizing agents, or combinations thereof.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of charging for services in a communications system consisting of two or more communications networks (KN1, KN2, KN3) of different network operators, and to network nodes (N3 to N5) and gateway nodes (GN1 to GN4) for such a communications network. For a connection whose establishment was initiated by a subscriber (A) of a first communications network (KN1) of the communications system, one or more services are provided by network nodes (N3 to N5) of a second communications network (KN2; KN3). Each of the network nodes (N3 to N5) of the second communications network (KN2) which provide services for the connection determines a charge (Waaa to Wccc) assigned to the service.
