Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for effectively managing a network of computing devices by collecting and processing performance metric information from a plurality of devices in the network. In one embodiment, a computing device performance monitor may be configured to collect a plurality of performance metric information for one or more monitored computing devices and may assign integrity scores to the plurality of performance metrics. The performance monitor may be configured to determine performance values for the one or more monitored computing devices, and use the performance values to determine an appropriate response or corrective measure.

Abstract: A system of head and neck garments and components that allows the wearer to control the environment around the wearer's head and neck is disclosed. The system requires that the wearer carry minimal additional gear while providing the wearer with the ability to cool, warm, waterproof, camouflage, and protect his or her head and neck areas against sun, wind, rain, snow, insects, blowing sand, etc.

Abstract: A wax applicator for use in a depilatory waxing procedure. The wax applicator has a body portion (10) with a mounting part (11) for the mounting of the body portion to a wax container (T). A flow passage (13) leads from the mounting part (11) to a narrow elongate outlet (14). Wax can flow from the container (T) along the flow passage (13) to the outlet (14). A spreader (15) is associated with the outlet (14). The spreader (15) has a distal edge located beyond the outlet so that in use wax issuing form the outlet (14) can spill over the distal edge of the spreader (15) as the applicator is moved forwardly in the direction in which the spreader (15) projects beyond the outlet (14).
