Abstract: Compositions comprising metabolized conditioned growth medium and/or metabolized cell extract and methods of use are described. The metabolized conditioned growth medium and metabolized cell extract compositions may be formulated with an acceptable carrier into injectable or topical formulations, for example, as a cream, lotion or gel, and may be used in cosmeceutical or pharmaceutical applications. The metabolized conditioned growth medium and metabolized cell extract may also be further processed to concentrate or reduce one or more factors or components contained within the metabolized conditioned growth medium or metabolized cell extract. The growth medium may be conditioned by any eukaryotic cell. The metabolized conditioned growth medium and metabolized cell extract may be used to prevent or treat a condition, for example, a skin condition.

Abstract: Computer implemented systems and methods are disclosed for automatically clustering and canonically identifying related data in various data structures. Data structures may include a plurality of records, wherein each record is associated with a respective entity. In accordance with some embodiments, the systems and methods further comprise identifying clusters of records associated with a respective entity by grouping the records into pairs, analyzing the respective pairs to determine a probability that both members of the pair relate to a common entity, and identifying a cluster of overlapping pairs to generate a collection of records relating to a common entity. Clusters may further be analyzed to determine canonical names or other properties for the respective entities by analyzing record fields and identifying similarities.

Abstract: Datasets are annotated with metadata including categories. Each category corresponds to one or more fields. A hierarchy mapping is generated to indicate a hierarchical relationship between different categories. A natural language query specifies a first granularity level indicating a particular category and one or more field values corresponding to the particular category. Based on the hierarchy mapping, one or more categories that are hierarchically related to the particular category are identified. Based on the metadata, two or more datasets that include at least one hierarchically related category is selected. Based on the first granularity level, one or more dataset filters are generated. The one or more dataset filters are translated to a second granularity level corresponding to the at least one hierarchically related category. The translated filters are applied to at least one of the selected datasets. The two or more datasets are joined to generate a composite dataset.

Abstract: File system disaster recovery techniques provide automated monitoring, failure detection and multi-step failover from a primary designated target to one of a designated group of secondary designated targets. Secondary designated targets may be prioritized so that failover occurs in a prescribed sequence. Replication of information between the primary designated target and the secondary designated targets allows failover in a manner that maximizes continuity of operation. In addition, user-specified actions may be initiated on failure detection and/or on failover operations and/or on failback operations.

Abstract: The present invention provides a skin peel composition including a plurality of substances, such as lactic acid, salicylic acid, and resorcinol and, additionally a post-inflammatory hyper pigmentation reducing substance such as a retinol (vitamin A) or retinol derivative. Skin is first prepared using an alcohol preparation followed by a combinations of acids and, lastly, a retinol or retinol derivatives. Other agents such as ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and vitamin E can be added as needed. Application of the skin peel composition may be either topically in the form of a cream or gel, and may further be injected subcutaneously into the skin to achieve deeper penetration of the composition within the skin layers of the area to be treated.

Abstract: A sensing system for a refrigerator dispensing system is used to sense the presence, positioning, height and shape of a container placed in a dispensing well. When the presence of the container is sensed in the dispensing well and the container is properly positioned relative to a dispensing nozzle of the well, a dispensing operation can be performed. The actual dispensing operation is regulated based on the height and shape of the container. In this manner, dispensing operations can only be performed when a container is appropriately arranged in the dispensing well and the dispensing operation will be timely terminated based the size and shape of particular container employed.
